I have the same issue .. did you fix it or no ?

Did you tried pressing just volume down button, and connect it to PC at the same time, after switching off? After switching off you merely have 3 to 4 seconds to connect to PC while holding vol down button.

Let me give you a step by step guide to flash the Stock ROM, please follow it.
Download your phone's latest firmware and extract system.img, boot.img, recovery.img, cust.img from UPDATE.APP using Huawei Update Extractor tool.
Flash recovery first, using this command.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Flash all other extracted files similarly firing these commands.
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash cust cust.img
fastboot flash system system.img
After doing this put that very UPDATE.APP from which you extracted the files in dload folder of your external SDCARD.
Switch off your phone, and press Vol UP + Vol DOWN + Power button simultaneously.
Your device will now get to the full stock firmware.
Please report back if this works for you or not.

I had the same problem with my honor 7 which I eventually solved so lemme ask you a few questions...
Are you in bootloader mode constantly? (Is it with error or without error?)
Hard reset (power+vol down) boots into bootloader or bootloader with error message?
Have you tried a hard reset (hold down power UNTIL reboot) and quickly connecting your phone to a PC with vol down button held? (Of course let go of power as soon as a reboot)
Adb and fastboot are different things with different drivers so in fastboot mode you have to check
Fastboot devices
And
Adb devices only works if you are booted in android (and I guess twrp recovery).
Please lemme know all these things.
If you just want to install recovery, download latest firmware for your phone and use huawei update extractor to extract stock recovery from UPDATE.APP (which you get after extracting firmware using WinZip or some such software).
Boot into bootloader using power+vol down, connect to a PC and use adb to push
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
After copying recovery.img to platform-tools folder.

Try this
- If you dont have, put a memory card in shmartphone
- I drew a full back to my rom, in this case a custom 6.9.1
- I put this full rom (zip file) on the memory card
- Through the TWRP did factory reset through the bootloader option
- Again by TWRP I chose installed the full rom had put the memory card
- He installed, I restart and voilá
Note that after doing this, it took a long time to set everything up. In the second logo of honor it took about 15 or 20 minutes.

guys , i can't get to use any of the key combinations , it just reboots non of the recovery ,fastboot or adb are working if i can flash any recovery i can mange the rest out , any ideas?

If it keeps booting into error message bootloader or reboots without screen, you have to take it to Huawei customer service.
Had a similar problem with my phone and nothing could be done for 2,3 months until my son used it as a brick (before I could take it to customer service).
Tried every possible method here on XDA.

Hwh6 completely bricked (kinda)

Hello everyone, I recently tried to root a H60-L04 but after unlocking the bootloader everything went nuts.
I can't flash any stock rom because it never shows me up the 3 buttons mode or either the recovery, if I flash a custom ROM then it will get stuck at the " Honor " screen, if this wasn't odd enough, with the Unbrick feature of Multitool, it goes in bootloop and still can't access 3 buttons mode. Any suggestions on what I can do STEP by STEP for unbricking this phone? cwm and twrp are always spitting out errors 6 and 0.

I can help you...

Just curiosity, if I have re-partition my phone (eg. modify /system from 1.5g to 1g), by restoring imgs from HUAWEI stock rom, can the partition be restored to original size as well?

The stock Update.APP repartitions the device to the default structure so the the partition size will be restored to the original one.

I have not tried that yet, maybe the UPDATE.APP will resize your partitioning scheme or maybe not.

Aha, that would be very nice. I'm now using Cm12.1 on my 4X and considering roll back to stock ROM. If stock ROM can do the job, that would be less work for me to do.

It works as I've already tested it. The stock system image on my device has a size of 2.5 GB. After flashing developer version, there was 1 GB free so I shrunk the system partition to 1.5 GB. When I restored back to the official stock releases, the system partition was restored back to 2.5 GB.

Hi Digigoon, many thanks for your instructions!
I followed them and I've been also been able to go back to Stock ROM using the last FRD-L09C432B131 ROM Update.
But now I lost my unlocked bootloader, my previously installed TWRP Recovery and my SUPERSU Root.
The problem is that I can't unlock it anymore when trying to start again the whole Unlock Bootloader+TWRP+ROOT process.
I always get the same error "FAILED (remote: password wrong)" after executing "fastboot oem unlock XXXXXXXX" (Where XXXXXXXX is my unlock code)
I always get this same error using my previously working unlock Code I got via the "DC Unlocker" procedure that worked for me one month ago the first time I unlocked my device and also when using a new Unlock code I just got following the Huawei Official EMUI Website Unlock Bootloader process.
I wanted to use again the stock ROM and install the official updates but the idea was to continue being Unlocked and with TWRP+ROOT.
Can anybody help me? Does anybody know why I can't unlock again and what could I try to re-unlock my Honor 8 FRD-L09?
Any help would be highly appreciated.

I found it myself. Now it works. Incredible! The "official Huawei Unlock bootloader" method fails to me giving me a non-working Unlock code. The "DC Unlocker" method works perfectly and it failed to me because for some unknown reason there was a FXXXXXX typo in the pasted coded I had saved. A FXXXXXX typo when I copied/Pasted it! I had to pay again 4€ *to get a fully working code equal to the one I already had but without the typo!. Well I am done for now.

Honor 8 lite. same problem... Mistakenly Installed update of Honor 6X.
Bro i have Mistakenly Flash Honor 6x file Through TWRP. now after 3 4 different updates attempts, just cannot cross 5% in dload method.
My model was PRA-LA1C185B165
and have tried PRA-LA1C185B180 and PRA-LA1C185B166
but only TWRP is working on mobile and flash/wipe is also not working...

Bricked honor 8

Hi. I was trying to install cm13 on my honor 8. I unlocked the bootloader, but while trying to install twrp recovery I think I deleted everything off the phone. The huawei erecovery doesn't work, and I tried sooooo many fastboot commands. I can't do adb commands. I can only get into fastboot mode. Is there anyway for me to get out of this? I tried flashing the system.img and boot.img from fastboot but it fails.

Yes. I installed a roll back update (something like that) by getting into the force update mode. After it finished, I had to then apply the full stock firmware. The problem was that I somehow put the firmware of another phone, because my model number was from a different Huawei phone.

Hi. I got tired of CM13, so I tried to go back to stock. I checked a guide online which told me to flash 2 files using TWRP. after that, I lost twrp and now my bootloader is locked. What do I do? I manually did an update with the update.app file, and it says update success, but when it reboots it stays on the honor 8 screen, I waited for 25 minutes and it's still there.

Try going into stock recovery and doing a factory reset after you use the update.app. You'll have to unlock the bootloader again and flash twrp if you want root.
Restoring to MM using a full image will typically lock the bootloader.

It happened to me too, it is possible you still didn't use the right image.
This is how I recovered mine:
1. Go here to download the latest firmware for your model: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=129406
2. Use the Huawei Update Extractor to extract files from the "Update.app". (Ignore the 'profile' drop down list in the app.)
3. Unlock your phone's bootloader.
4. Flash these four images (extracted using the tool from step 2):
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash cust cust.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
5. Boot into recovery and do a factory reset. This is needed to reformat the internal storage (and make it encrypted I think). (Power+Vol Up)
6. Put the Update.app file inside the "dload" folder in your SDcard.
7. Boot into flash mode to let the phone flash the Update.app (Power+Vol Up+Vol Down).

2 things, 1 is that there are 2 recovery files in the UPDATE.APP, and 2 is that I can't do a factory reset from the recovery, because it brings me to the erecovery and it doesn't give me the option to factory reset.

You need to hold VOLUME UP and POWER button with the phone off to get into the recovery to do a factory reset. Once the honor logo pops up, you can release the power and volume up buttons.
Recovery.img = Stock recovery

I just did everything exactly the way you said. But it still stays at the honor boot logo. I don't mind waiting over night for it to boot up if I have to, but I've never had a phone take this long to boot up, even on first boot.

For a "brick" thread, it seems odd that the model is never mentioned so that someone can really point you to the right spot. If you keep going to erecovery, then it has to do with whether or not your cable is plugged in (likely you've been keeping it plugged in for your fastboot attempts, or that's a guess). I only go to erecovery with both up/down & power if the cable is plugged in. If I want to get to stock recovery (regardless of what the hell is in the "recovery" partition, TWRP, or who knows?) then I unplug it before trying any key combo from power off to get there.
Lastly, if you use this sort of thing as a template (I'm just going to use one for the frd-l09 as an example, but stick the right model in there for you) ::
Example to plug into Google to find your rollback with instructions:: site:consumer.huawei.com honor 8 frd-l09 rollback
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So if you've got an frd-l04 then plug that in where frd-l09 is. It'll just look on the site consumer.huawei.com just above where the various country/variant breakdowns are, like US/ZH/HU/Etc. are.
Pick the one out that is closest to what it seems you want. All the pages are in the local languages so I'm guessing the .pdf that explains what to do is in the language you'll want as well.
Good luck:: Let us know what model phone you have.
More: Contents of first "intermediate" update.app is 8 image files. I'm sure the 2nd one that is specifically your own phone's version of b162 has a lot more files in it. I've not looked for awhile but I think it's 21 or 22 files. This is a two step process, first is all the crap that comes in update.app from the rollback page (just a 100K file which sets you up in intermediate state for rollback) and 2nd you find your exactly right b162 for your model phone, and pretty much repeat the process.
Yet More: One odd thing about the Honor 8: I've not seen it on other phones is the partition layout is not really "trustworthy" unless you really have gotten to understand it. There appears to be at least 3 or 4 places you can get to that I used to think would all have to be in the recovery partition, but apparently the Honor 8 works differently, so no matter how bleak your odds seem, .. maybe not. I got to both erecovery and stock recovery and rollback while TWRP was installed and it worked just following the directions from their website.

Agreed on this thing.

Thank you very much, you saved me and my phone !!!
I made a mistake: my phone was under android m and I flashed by mistake the rollback update (to go m from n), then my honor was bricked on bootloop, no recovery, no update by dload....nothing worked....
Your solution was the right one !! again thank you very much

Interesting observation with the eRecovery (recovery2 partition). So I have TWRP installed, the system partition modified and user storage not encrypted. I was still able to to use eRecovery to connect to WiFi and download the factory image and it automatically repaired the phone to factory state. I noticed it doesn't re-lock the bootloader afterward. This seems to be the easiest method to unbrick.
Getting into eRecovery.

hi! Or extract the files? sorry for my english

2. Use the Huawei Update Extractor to extract files from the "Update.app". (Ignore the 'profile' drop down list in the app.)
3. Unlock your phone's bootloader.
4. Flash these four images (extracted using the tool from step 2):
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash cust cust.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
5. Boot into recovery and do a factory reset. This is needed to reformat the internal storage (and make it encrypted I think). (Power+Vol Up)
6. Put the Update.app file inside the "dload" folder in your SDcard.
7. Boot into flash mode to let the phone flash the Update.app (Power+Vol Up+Vol Down).

Ok after the factory reset (which is peppered with mounting errors)...
failed to mount /data (invalid arguments)
unable to mount storage
When I try to flash cust.img and system.img they both fail.
I cannot check what firmware I was on before I started all this, but I believe it was the latest one. This is a FRD-04. I flashed TWRP 3.1.0.1 erecovery and I can access it and fastboot.
I have tried various different things and nothing I do can unbrick the phone. Any help would be appreciated.

have the same problem as you on my FRD-09.

I don't have this phone anymore, but the easiest way I find to restore it is using eRecovery.

You can download the full firmware directly from honor, unzip it, and place the update.app file in a dload folder that you create on your sd card. Power of the phone then hold volume up, down, and power at the same time to initiate an automatic flash of the room you downloaded. This will erase everything, so be aware.

1.Download full rom from huawei support site then extract update.app
2.place it in dload folder using twrp (in twrp enable MTP)
3.Now extract the recovery.img from update.app using huawei extractor and flash it using fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
4.now power off phone then start phone holding Volume Up ,Volume Down & power button simultaneously
5.it will start updating

i got the recovery using the extractor using huawei

oh my god ok now it is stuck at blue honor screen for an hour after update installed automatically without pressing anything. i just pressed volume and power buttons and it started updating. no menu was provided

I had the same problem once.
You can try to flash the cust partition of your phone. The "device verification failed"-message should disappear then. It's not enough to only flash boot, system and recovery. If there is a problem with the cust partition of your phone you can also have problems with flashing stock roms via "dload"-method.
1. Download the right stock firmware via the huawei firmware finder. You usually have two .zip files (e.g. update.zip & update_full_BLN-L21_hw_eu.zip). The image file for the cust partition can be found in the update_full_BLN-L21_hw_eu.zip (choose the right one for your model).
2. Unpack update_full_BLN-L21_hw_eu.zip and extract the cust partition with the huawei firmware extractor.
3. Put your phone into fastboot mode
4. Use the following command: fastboot flash cust cust.img
5. Try to boot into your stock rom.
