Unable to boot in to recovery mode!!!! Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have an Honor 6 L02. After i used the honor 6 multitool to flash my CWM recovery back in to stock, i did not get the recovery screen when i pressed down the buttons, nor when i downloaded an app that would do that for me, also my OTA updates fails, i thought rooting was the problem so i unrooted, now Freedom stopped working so i cant use google play and youtube. PLEASE HELP!

also my phone was rooted so i unroot it

Please help

come on guys please

for the rooted phones you can try "Quick boot" from Google play store. It has option to "Boot into recovery"...
can you also try to send CWM again via Multitool and to see if you can get into CWM?

Does it reboot when you try to enter recovery or it restarts itself at boot process i.e honor boot animation shows up and then it restarts (bootloop).
I really don't know why you are still unable to boot to recovery. Were you able to boot to stock recovery before flashing custom? Also, is your bootloader unlocked?
Your best bet at this stage would be to flash stock recovery and then completely flash stock ROM. This would wipe your data but will resurrect your device from bootloop.

Honor 6 - Unable to access recovery mode. Stuck at boot screen (honor logo)

Hi,
My Honor 6 (Indian Version) was stuck in boot loop post OTA upgrade from B822 to B831. In order to fix this issue, I went through many forums available online and then decided to use the Multi Tool to downgrade to Android L & EMUI 3.1.
To get this done I have followed the below steps:
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Extract BOOT, CUST, RECOVERY and SYSTEM files from the update package downloaded from Honor.in site. //(Honor 6_Firmware_H60-L04_Android 5.1.1_EMUI 3.1_C675B570_India_Flipkart)//
3. Used Multi Tool to unbrick.
Post this the phone is not able to get into recovery mode; it's stuck at the logo screen. It doesnot recognise the 3 button command to boot into recovery mode.
I have tried using the 'boot to recovery' command in Multi Tool but it throws error "daemon not running starting on port 5037".
I have also tried adb command but for some reason my computer does not recognise my mobile.
i.e. adb devices --> doesnot show my device. (yes, I have updated the abb drivers). So I am not able to use any adb commands.
Then i tried installing/flashing CWM & TWRP recovery. None helped. :crying:
Now I am here, out of options and do not know how to proceed.
Could someone in this forum help me fix the current issue? Please.
In addition, I would like to know a few things:
a. How to install a new OS/ROM on a dead phone? (Healthy hardware with corrupt software)
b. How to format any phone and start a fresh installation?
c. How to read internal memory of a phone which has no ROM or corrupt software?
I am new to all this. Please bear with me.
Thanks,
Sampath

First of all hold and press power + vol down to boot into bootloader mode and type
Fastboot devices
After connecting your phone to PC and opening a command window in platform-tools. Your device should be listed.
adb devices works only when your phone is already booted into Android or running twrp.
Copy and paste the four image files to platform-tools folder and fire these commands
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Fastboot flash system system.img
Fastboot flash cust cust.img
And then use the 3 button command.

I am in a bit different situation, let me explain.
Till day before yesterday I was on B570 Rom, then I upgraded over OTA to B831, then Unlocked Bootloader, Rooted, Installed Latest TWRP Recovery & Installed Latest Xposed Framework, everything went successfull & My phone is running fine.
But the question that arises to me is that none of the Stock Marshmallow update for Honor 6 - H60-L04 has been stable as compared to Lollipop Version & I found B570 super stable & the possibility of myself reverting back to B570 is more. What would be the procedure to revert back to B570.. I think first of all I would have to revert back to stock recovery & then flash the rom package, but how to do this successfully.
Kindly advice.

Thank you for your response. :good:
I have flashed all the files using the fastboot mode, but my phone does not recognise the 3 button command.
It either displays the Honor logo or restarts with a quick vibration. the only command it recognised is 'Vol Down + USB plugged into a computer' (for fastboot).
When flashed with Honor Custom or CWM recovery the phone does not recognise:
1. Vol up + Vol down + Power - for recovery mode
2. Vol down + Power - for hard reset/clear cache partition
When flashed with TWRP recovery the phone only recognises: Power + Vol Up button which boots into recovery mode; however this works only when connected to a power source, the moment I disconnect the power cable the phone switches off.
I tried to install Honor 6 custom ROM EMUI4.0 using TWRP. Need guidance on the below two scenarios.
1. TWRP only recognises .zip files. HONOR custom ROMs are in .app format. What should I do?
2. As a work around, I have downloaded 'Honor 6_Firmware_H60-L04_Andriod 6.0_EMUI 4.0_C432B820_Channel-Others.zip' from xda forum and tried installing it, but TWRP throws a 'no md5 file found' error.
To address this I tried using WinMD5.exe to get the MD5 code and manually created a .MD5 file, but TWRP did not recognise it. Please guide.

You need to flash stock recovery first, by executing this command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

@sampathnayak09
Make sure your power button is working correctly. If the files can be flashed successfully, you should be able to boot into recovery.
Honor firmware can only be flashed using three button method. You can search online for making .zip from .app but I am not sure that will solve your problem.

There are rollback packages for going back. I have read those threads on XDA but could not find them again. Will look for them and will send you a link as soon as I found one.

Thanks for the reply.
If I extract the recovery.img from the B831 Rom Package & flash the same using the below command will it give me back my stock recovery.
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
And if once I am on Stock Recovery I hope I can again Install a full fresh copy of the B831 Package which will be with Stock Recovery i.e NO TWRP Recovery & root free. And after that when I get the rollback package I can revert back to B570. Pls advice am I going right or is there any possibility that I will brick my phone.

If the phone keeps going off you tried charging for a while? Battery might not be charging due to no OS.

My honor 6 bricked about a month ago so can not verify this method but to get out of bootloop, always keep a nandroid backup of your device somewhere safe.
You can make a nandroid backup using twrp. Save it to SD card and then copy it to your PC to keep it safe.

Hi,
I did flash the stock recovery, but my phone keeps rebooting and doesn't get into recovery mode.
I am sure it has sufficient battery charge. (Close to 90%).
Is there a way to do a clean install on Android phones? Like the way we install Windows OS on computers. Format hard disks, create partitions and then install a fresh OS?
Thanks

Find attached below the required links for Rollback package & TWRP.
1) https://club.hihonor.com/in/honor6.217/downgrade-link-from-marshmallow-b831-to-lollipop-b570.7935
2) https://twrp.me/devices/huaweihonor6.html
Regarding TWRP, it lets you install custom roms & other apps which cannot be installed thru stock recovery e.g Xposed Framework. Further TWRP is useful for restoring the phone as it allows to restore the phone by using Nandroid backups taken earlier, provided the Nandroid backups are stored in SD Card. There may be more advantages which I am still trying to find out.

Give it a couple of tries. Users have suggested that it usually gets stuck somewhere but trying for 2,3 times gets the job done.

Let me know which Rom version is your phone running now & which version you are trying to migrate to.
Also if 3 button Force update is not working then you can try the project menu option.
But first let me know what state your phone is currently in.

oh now I got it, i think you go in the boot menu, all mediateks have that in Chinese
To get into recovery you must press up volume and then hold it along with pressing the power button,
Y6 after a few seconds turn;s on and you then have to chose which mode to go. Up volume to change selection and down volume to select, recovery mode obviously

after doing that i have =killed= android lieing on screen with red triangle.... under it it says =No command=
---------- Post added at 05:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:58 PM ----------
So for new guys in this i skipped very important step when flashed twrp:
Do not run system , but to bootloader first , accept modifications and whoala...
thx @chillo for responding quickly

BTW The dying android means no custom recovery is installed for Y6 , no fastboot command whatsoever
And yes, Y6 and most new android phones from Marshmallow and newer *(edit: ) stock ROMs, don't like to mess with their system partition, one should select system as read-only
Glad you made it through and learned a bit of it

Bootloop
It appears I've soft-bricked my Y6.
I've installed TWRP 3.03 as above and can boot into it but when I try to do a normal reboot I'm stuck in a boot loop.
How do I get to this stage - "Do not run system , but to bootloader first , accept modifications and whoala..." Is that when you first run TWRP?
In the Mount section of TWRP "System" is not ticked but the button "Mount as readonly" is.
If I select Fastboot it hangs. Normal boot hangs. Boot into Recovery is fine.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

Y6 Max:*install recovery with fastboot in Ubuntu Linux
Hello,
thank you for this very useful thread. Just want to add some information on installing the recovery image on the Doogee Y6 Max via fastboot in Ubuntu Linux
I've followed this instructions with some minor (but important)*changes.
First useful information:*to enter in the fastboot mode of the Y6 max do the follow:
- power off your phone
- push togheter Volume up and Power button
now you will see a menu with three options. Move the arrow with Volume up and select "fastboot". Then press Volume down.
You are now in fastboot mode.
Connect your phone via USB to the computer.
Open a terminal and:
- unlock OEM as described in the tutorial linked above.
- install your recovery.img as described in the tutorial linked above
- re-lock the OEM with this command:
Code:
sudo fastboot oem lock
otherwise your phone won't boot.
Then power off your phone and enter in the menu described above pressing toghether Volume up and Power.
Now select "Recovery" and you are done.

Hi! I did everything like in the tutorial but phone is stuck in bootloop after flashing supersu from sd card. Any advices?
I tried 3.0.3 twrp and newest supersu. Phone turned on but there is not root, also there were no errors during instalation.

I have some sad news for you man ! that Russian youtuber is just a copy/past guy ! He took the recovery directly from a russien forum where the dev who makes it doesn't have a u20plus he is a famous twrp builder called Jimmini. I've already contacted him & he told me that he'll check it out when he have the time, so don't expect anything from the youtubers

Hello guys
I have managed to root oukitel u20 plus like 20 days ago, but forgot to post on XDA, here are steps:
1. Go to Developer options and enable OEM unlocking
2. Shutdown phone, hold volume down and plug in USB cable, keep holding the button until you see fastboot, for some reason controls are inversed it says volume up to select but its volume down to select, or other way around i dont rememeber.
3. After windows detects your device go to fastboot and type in command "fastboot oem unlock" without quotes, use buttons to confirm the prompt. After this you can use fastboot to boot TWRP. This will wipe your data!!!
4. Once phone boots copy SuperSU 2.78 or newer to device internal memory, and reboot back again to fastboot.
5. Download twrp from my link and put it in your fastboot directory, now type "fastboot boot u20_twrp.img" without quotes.
6. You will be booted in TWRP with Touchscreen working, select and flash your supersu.zip.
7. Reboot and enjoy your root and stock recovery for OTA.
Explanation:
For some reason when you flash TWRP with flashtools touchscreen is not working, but when you try to boot recovery instead of flashing it, the touchscreen works allowing your to flash zips and do backups.
Twrp link:
https://www.sendspace.com/file/biqa9f
Solution 2: (Not tested)
While in twrp you can flash zips with command line, without touchscreen.
1. Go to your adb command window and type "adb shell" without quotes.
2. Once in shell type "twrp install /sdcard/SuperSu.zip" without quotes... Adjust location and name of the zip file to where you putted it.
3. It will install supersu without touchscreen

Go to your settings, scroll down to "About phone", tap "Build Number" 5 times, when it says you are developer now, go back and enter "Developer options".
Find option called "OEM Unlocking" enable that, then reboot to fastboot do "fastboot oem unlock" and then try to boot twrp image.
Check this image for refference about "OEM Unlocking":

Why there is need for this Guide?
When I got my Realme 5, I wanted to Unlock the Bootloader, Install the TWRP Recovery, root it and finally Install a Custom ROM. So, I've Searched for it and Finally Disappointed B'coz many Guides were wrong and some were Very Old and Outdated Guides..

So, this Guide saves your time, I've Included the Steps What I did, you guys can simply follow it..

Sorry for the delay bro, I think you can't unlock the bootloader of Your Phone, bcoz it is not directly from the realme, I mean the phone which u bought is customized by your sim(carrier) company
