I guess you could try to boot into TWRP --> Wipe --> Format Data --> Ext4(if it asks)
Or try to re-install stock firmware with some official way or in TWRP by following this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-4x/how-to/install-emui-4-1-4x-4c-g-play-g-play-t3515702

Just recheck URL you have copied it from quoted text which removes text in between the URL .
Copy it directly from the browser URL.

That means you have successfully recovered your device right?
Did you get build number back correctly or do you have banlong bug?

Thanks for helping guys!

I downloaded this http://download969.mediafire.com/xqlhgoufnstg/w9ms2fh8fr0atxi/updateappflasher.zip
And then I downloaded UPDATE.APP and moved it into that zip file and then I mounted all partitions and flashed normally using twrp. Before first boot format cache and data. Also you need unlocked bootloader.

Are you using twrp from elite ROM? Didnt see the option for version partition in generic twrp for our device.
Vendor and product may not be mounted if you flash other oeminfo file.

I installed the official TWRP and I still have the same problem to make a system backup, specifically with the partition /data always gives error:
createtarfork () process ended with error 255
please someone knows the reason?

If i update OOS by flashing the OOS zip , do I just install twrp image after I install oos, or the do i install the image and zip after a update?

recovery: error validating footer. (0)

hi, today i tried to install twrp on my phone but i got an error written in the attached image, any help?

Mmm, do they mean the AVB0 footer on the recovery image?
How did you flash the TWRP?
Was what you wrote as big as the partition?

So, how big was the file that you flashed?
If what you flashed is smaller than the partition then the old AVB0 footer from the stock recovery is there.
That wouldn't agree with the position of the new AVB0 header for TWRP.
Or maybe you're supposed to defeat AVB somewhere?

the file weighs 50 kb (I don't know what to do because it's the first time I enter the world of modding)

@gerryscottiano instead of asking this question in a new thread, it would be a better idea to ask in the thread where you got TWRP from.

Also, the TWRP image for this device is about 42MB, not 50KB.

i was wrong it is 50 mb, however i downloaded it on twrp official site
