Device won't boot, tried rayglobe, tried fastboot flash, no firmware downloads availa - Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have an NXT-L29 (432). I've really loved this phone besides the headaches of modding. I've been doing this for years, am well acquainted with fastboot and ADB. I promised I've searched and read as much as I can, I keep getting dead ends.
I'll try to recount what I've done but I've tried so many things I'm probably a bit mixed up. Was using b180 and and Ephemeral Rom for months, decided to go to b321 for black pyramid. Trouble began. Tried dload method (button method wouldn't work,used dialer), it rebooted back to the custom rom. Went to recovery, still TWRP. Wiped, it booted into stock EMUI. Was still rooted, with kangtools somehow. Tried using supersu unroot, failed. Flashed stock recovery from bootloader hoping to update to nougat (gave up on b321), since then it won't boot and I can only get into bootloader and eRecovery. Tried downloading latest version and recovery, getting package fails. Tried reflashing TWRP in bootloader, shows success but brings me back to Erecovery. Tried rayglobe knife unbrick with extracted images from what I believe is my stock firmware. It completes, I press any key to reboot and get stuck on the 'your device is unlocked and can't be trusted' screen. I let it sit there overnight. Tried relocking bootloader but it can't because of root type. Tried manually flashing cust, boot, system, recovery, which is successful, yet I still get stuck at the 'your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted'. Tried using HRK tool but ADB isn't authorized? USB debugging was allowed before I got locked out. I'm stuck, don't know what else to do. I've thought to download another stock firmware but none of the links in the stock thread work anymore. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
One thing that is really racking my brain, why does Erecovery remain after fastboot flashing twrp?

Somehow got back into twrp, flashed 7.0 files and now running nougat. Cannot get back to twrp for the life of me and it doesn't always boot but it's progress. This phone is crazy.

Hello.
I unbricked my phone few. Weeks ago. Now it's fully fonctionnal. But I still can't boot to TWRP. The only manner I found, it's using srktool to reboot in TWRP... The official manner start erecovery too.

hi friend,have you problem....
help meeeee.
have flash a lot rom with fastboot unbrick
but no star sistem

Installed Nougat but cannot get TWRP to work. Need help rolling back to marshmallow!

Ive tried to install TWRP via adb about 3 times now and it just will not work. The install goes perfectly but when i try to enter recovery mode from the phone being turned off, it just infinitely says my phone is booting. Does not go into twrp at all. My Nougat installation is extremely buggy. I have no model number, i went through complete hell to even enter my google account info. Everything seems to work fine on nougat though but i just cannot stand the bugged installation. Could really use some help.....
EDIT: Flashed TWRP through adb sideload and the phone just sits there still even when i enabled usb debugging and all. Bluetooth doesnt work and NFC doesnt work. But everything else works perfectly fine. It would just be nice to get the full functionality of my phone back. Phone isnt rooted. Just need some quick assistance.... Thanks for whomever answers.

have you tried to flash through fastboot the twrp in this thread? http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/development/recovery-unofficial-twrp-huawei-mate-9-t3515617 (do not worry if is for mate 9. it works anyway)
also please check if your bootloader is unlocked before doing it.
download srk huawei tool, is pretty easy to use: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/development/tool-srk-tool-huawei-t3369797
First you need to roll back to ur previous firmware.
You can try dload method using ur previous firmware or use rollback package.http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/general/best-easiest-to-rollback-to-emui-4-0-t3507399/page1
When ur back with a working firmware,you have to unlock bootloader if its locked again,and flash twrp.
Once done u have to download nougat firmware with the data zip ment for ur region.
Go to twrp install the 2 zips( firmware and data) than reboot.
If the phone didn't boot after 10 minutes ,reboot into recovery( twrp will be replaced with stock recovery after installing the zips) and do factory reset.
Omg i forgot that the bootloader might be locked.. Ill try to find the comand to put my unlock code in and get back to this thread.. Thanks so much for suggestions.. Though ive had tkbdeal with it nougat is FANTASTIC
UPDATE: So far nothing is working. Tried the rollback packages and im still on nougat. I have an actual firmware version now. But its Russian firmware? Trying the dload method with L29185 firmwares like 200 and 320 and nothing works. Tried many things and now i cannot even install twrp. The install process would work it just wouldnt do anything when i tried to boot to twrp but now when i try to flash twrp over the recovery it just completely fails. no error code it just says it cannot find a file by that name or it cannot read it. adb says the bootloader is unlocked. Am i just completely stuck here on a buggy nougat installation? Is there any way to force a twrp backup to load outside of twrp?

ok so now most of this is done. Excuse me for pulling you aside I do hope you reply. Im having an issue getting twrp to work. Im on an official stock firmware. Bootloader unlocked, flashed twrp and im stuck at the screen that says my device cannot be trusted. Its on its way to booting to twrp but it completely wont. Its just stuck at that screen for about 5 minutes now. Ive let it ride and i think its just frozen there. Any ideas? im using the twrp posted by the commenter above you. The 3.0.2-1 and this is where im at.
Well now i cannot get my phone to stop wanting to factory reset itself. It keeps trying to boot into recovery and twrp is flashed over stock recovery and twrp still wont boot even though bootloader is unlocked. it freezes at the unsafe device booting screen every time it starts. I think this phone is bricked beyond repair now. Nougat update completely ruined my phone.

That twrp is for mate 9 and will not work for mate 8 you need to fastboot another twrp. You need to flash another twrp you can try the twrp for the honor 8 which will work on mate 8

You will be to get into this twrp but not all functions are working.

As long as you can get into fastboot mode, you can recover. Try to flash the nougat stock recovery then use the rollback package (try all three to see which one work) then you can dload back to your previous rom.

Did you try it and it works for you? I flashed this twrp and my phone just get stuck at the screen "your phone is booting" and I have to flash another twrp.
In total what ive done up to my current state:
Flashed nougat in. Installed wrong tried reverting and noticed twrp wouldnt boot. Downloaded rollback packages. Only the russian one worked and ended up on C636B180 firmware. Checked my other recovery thread for twrp and got twrp working finally. TWRP wont flash any roms for some reason. When it flashes roms it doesnt actually install anything. When i boot it just sits there on the screen you get with an unlocked bootloader i havent let it sit there for long because when i get back into twrp and check the file manager, there are no files in sdcard. So my rom straight up didnt install. When i check it on my pc the storage size hasnt decreased at all. Its just completely screwed right now and im so frustrated im probably getting a new phone.

If you are back to C636B180 firmware, you need to unlock the phone, flash twrp, which is fully working in emui 4, root the phone then use SRK to change to the software region you want:

Can i just download a superuser zip and flash it with twrp to root? Havemt rooted this phone in forever cuz i never did much with it since my first and only rooting
The reason why recovery doesn't work is due to kernel isn't supported on new bootloader

What?
The previous twrp version doesn't work on nougat due to kernel.
I guess it's selected by bootloader or the new teecd
You can download twrp as mentioned here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=70126187
Also @tknguyencsu what works in that version for your mate 8?
Does MTP work and adb?
Data won't work unless you use encrypted version.

TWRP Recovery 3.0.3
Download TWRP Recovery 3.0.3
http://sillanwali.com/downloads/twp-3.0.3.img

[Bricked] One of the harder ones =|

I'm gonna keep it simple, here is the scenario:
ROM is corrupted.
Bootloader is unlocked.
FRP lock is on. (fastboot can't do much)
TWRP was flashed back to stock.
Stock hard-reset fails. (even wipe option)
Force upgrade stops at 5% (swear I am using the same one)
eRecovery does not work.
Can't flash. Can't push files.
Wat do.
Model: BLN-L24C567B369 (pretty sure this was it)
Whole story:
This whole episode began when I wanted to install Magisk to use MagiskManager's HideMe feature. This required me to install TWRP recovery which inturn lead me to unlock my bootloader in the process, straightforward and went off nicely. Now it was time to gain superuser which I already had done before on another device, installing SuperSU through TWRP recovery was painless but after booting found out MagiskManager needs Magisk Root to work. I then followed Android Exlpained's article to do so. Running unSU through recovery went smoothly but running Magisk didn't, on the initial run I was prompted to use Adrian DC's BootBridge which after removing a few Assert lines ran nicely. However there was no root install, SuperSU was removed though.
At the time I wasn't sure what exactly I was doing and ended up soft-bricking by flash boot through TWRP, at this time FRP was unlocked. After many many hours I restored to stock firmware by using YMNDLZ's guide. I used BLN-L24C567B370(OTA-MF-FULL) for the img files then proceed to flash the vendor.img using TWRP and the rest (boot.img, recovery.img, system.img) using fastboot in that order as instructed. The only part which didn't work was the forced update, it always failed at 5% however after more hours going recovery mode (now stock) wiping the cache and data/factory reset did the trick (Note: my model showed BLN-L24C567B369). I proceeded to reinstall TWRP, installed MagiskManager, tried to install Magisk 16.0 which ran but didn't root me but was fine because MagiskManager's download worked. I then thought since I went through all this trouble might as well install a custom rom, EliteRom was my ROM of choice. At this point I had logged in with my gmail credentials FRP was now locked.
*Before further action was taken I took the precaution to backup my current stable stock ROM after installing EliteROM but before booting*
The steps to install EliteROM went by flawlessly, installed EliteTWRP reboot into it, ran EliteROM
went through the setup without any hiccups. However up system restart I the ROM wouldn't boot leading me to boot into my recovery only to be prompted for an encryption password (???). Since I didn't recall setting one, couldn't boot into the OS, and FRP was locked I couldn't read my own internal storage. So I reformatted the internal storage and tried what had worked before, flashing the img files using TWRP then booting into stock recovery wiping cache and data/hard reset. . . this did not work. And here I am FRP locked so fastboot isn't useful (I think?), stock recovery doesn't work, eRecovery fails connection, and force update still fails at 5% with "Software install failed!".

you have to follow only xda methods to root or change to custom rom. i have never heard about flashing stock images from twrp. i think u didn't followed elite rom instructions clearly. you need to formate data then reboot to recovery then wipe everything then flash the os in this way you won't get encription error. anyway now your frp is locked so there is no way to flash twrp so download all the available firmwares for your phone oeminfo then do flashing via dload you will get it worked.
even i was also once stuck with elite rom. i didn't liked it because missing apps icon and forgetting permission. i tried to go back to stock but stuck at 5% error. then went to google searched stock rom for honor 6x india and downloaded nearly 3 roms last one worked helped me to get back to stock.
never flash system images boot,vendor etc from fastboot and twrp unless you are on emui8 and going to try gsi roms.
hey i cant revert back to stock rom. it fails to get package from server. does jio voice calling works on this device?? if no then plz guide me how to go back to stock rom..

Register for update using firmware finder and Puts dns address in the router settings and then use erecovery

Tried it all with bricked Honor 6x. Any help is appreciated

I already posted here, but i was with no pc for some weeks so couldnt answer to the thread and now its old, Im back.
Situation is like this, huawei gr5 2017 (bll l22) bricked after bad flashing and software manipulation.
Vol down + power gets me to fastboot, it says phone unlocked and FRP unlock.
Download method with vol down + vol up + power doesnt work, always stuck at 5% saying "software install failed, incompatibility with current version" or doesnt say anything at all, just stuck at 5%.
Also, when i try to wipe data/factory reset from stock revoery it says "reset failed"
So dload method doesnt work, i also tried using DCPHOENIX software which saved one of my older huawei phones but it didnt work at all this time. When i flash a twrp recovery through fastboot, it flashes succesfully but when i boot into it it just boots into the stock one, and there the restore to stock option always fails after i connect to wifi saying that "failed to reach the server" or "failed to download the firmware", something like that.
I had twrp some days ago, out of the blue it booted into it. I had stock firmware on my sd card fortunately so i tried to flash the zip and itfailed with error 6 or 7, cant remember which. Anyways that twrp instance dissapeared after a reboot and now its always stock recovery, cant install twrp (described that above already).
So, do i have any options? nothing seems to work. no recovery, no dload, no dc phoenix, no fastboot (i tried flashing boot, system images through fastboot but it denied access to those partitions) flashing, i tried sp flash tool but the honor 6x roms have no scatter file and the flash tool requires one
Help, please. Ill appreciate it
What was your EMUI version before brick? Have you tried manually booting into TWRP? After you finish flashing don't reboot. Just hold power & volume down. If not then try to load TWRP recovery. It won't install but sort of load it. I don't know the exact command. If your phone is bootloader unlocked and frp unlocked try fastboot erase. System and then user data. I had a hard brick and it was even worse. No recovery, no fastboot and no dload. Just stuck. Managed to fix it myself without DC or Phoenix. So don't lose hope.

I cant remember if it was marshmallow or nougat so it was either emui 4 or 5. Im trying it all again and it doesnt work but ill keep doing it i guess
Try flashing recovery of nougat and then manually try to boot. Or maybe try to load the recovery without installation. It has a different command but I dunno.
hi, I have pretty much the same problem, somehow wiped the 'system' through TWRP. And since then I am trying to flash TWRP to boot, but I am getting nothing. I had EMUI 8
Tried flashing stock nougat through Multi Tool but no use, it succeeds but does not boot into anything, just the stock recovery whenever I turn it on.
Whenever I flash TWRP and try to boot into recovery (Vol-up+power), it would always boot into stock recovery.
Tried booting into eRecovery, but same thing.
Tried command fastboot boot RECOVERY-V2.img, but got the problem saying 'command not allowed'
what to do.

Messed my honor 6x. Help me recover.

Update: I tried flashing TWRP by Askuccio through fastboot and I successfully did. Then I flashed PixyOS v2.4 and flashed it successfully then flashed Gapps and stock recovery then followed rest of the required steps and everything went smooth and right. Using PixyOs now. Great rom with great stability with Android P. ?
I was on Oreo on my 6x. I wanted to flash this pixyos rom on my Honor 6x. I unlocked the bootloader of my phone installed the Twrp successfully without any hassle. Now it was time to flash PixyOs and unfortunately I did not do any backup of any sort. The PixyOs Package showed some error when I tried to clean flash it. And here we go my phone had No Os now. I searched a lot and found this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-6x/how-to/update-bln-l22c675-emui-5-x-x-to-emui-8-t3819317
I gave it a try step by step thinking about that it would work but after successfully following all the mentioned steps and flashing everything I got this "System failed" error when the device was booting. In other words it didn't work eventually.
I tried the dload method with the same update zip from the thread linked above but it failed too.
I tried erecovery to restore my device but it gave me "Getting package info failed".
I don't know what to do now. Please help me with this and help me restore my phone.
I had the same issue
i made something like this a month ago
only one temporary solution worked is flashing EliteRom via twrp and i got the phone working again but still can't flash a stock rom.

Can you boot to fastboot. What did the PC say when you ran the script. Try to flash TWRP if EMUI 5 and then press and hold Volume Up and Power to boot into it. If it works, good. If not then again boot to bootloader and try to flash TWRP of EMUI 8. Again try to boot into it. If it works, good. Anyway, once you're in TWRP don't let your phone turn off. Plug it in charging. Now go-to wipe, and format data

I'd suggest you to try PixyOs (With Askuccio TWRP). It's a great and fluid ROM. Only downside is it doesn't have Stock Emui camera and I didn't even try flashing it because I read somewhere that it causes the device to get stuck in bootloop.

Thank You for your reply.

Bootloop

Okay I am in a situation. my Google pixel is constantly boot looping. I have tried custom roms and even stock ROMs and it keeps boot looping. I've done all the tutorials and troubleshooting threads and to no avail am I getting this to stop. My bootloader is unlocked and I cannot flash any firmware that is stock below Android 10. I thought with the unlocked bootloader you could flash almost any firmware. Does anybody have any idea on how to help me and what I could do?
After trying to flash an OTA or a factory image it keeps saying something about user data and then it says press any key to exit.
I finally fast boot twrp and sideload lineage 17.1. after flash it rebooted... usually twrp flashes and waits for you to pick reboot. Phone works but is it a matter of time before it does the bootloop again? Clicking fix bootloop recovery seemed to work.
