Hello, I have an Honor 6x, with unlocked bootloader, and wanted to install TWRP so I booted into bootloader
and flashed twrp.img via fastboot, but now everytime I want to boot TWRP it just shows the message:
Your device has been unlocked and
can't be trusted.
To learn more, visit:
*some link I can't post cause I'm new here*
Your device is booting now...
and then it is stuck in this state...
could I eventually boot into TWRP directly from bootloader via fastboot?
Please help guys, thanks in advance. :fingers-crossed:
What version of EMUI are you on? If you're on the 7.0 beta there isn't a working twrp for it.

Hello. Replying here as I don't need a new thread for a very similar issue.
Brand new 6x with EMUI 4. Unlocked bootloader successfully. Using adb/fastboot tool I boot into bootloader, then flash my twrp img. For some reason this goes fine with no errors but takes less than two seconds (cause for concern?).
Now from this point is where I am having trouble. Regardless of what I do, the phone only boots into the EMUI recovery screen. I am aware of holding the volume up key on the first boot after flashing twrp so that it won't be overwritten. I have rebooted the phone manually and also through fastboot while holding the volume up button.
In a new city and only internet I have is thru my phone so this process is really slow due to all the restarts etc. Thanks in advance for the help!

Same problem here. I have a Honor 6x (BLN-L21) with Nougat on it (Build BLN-L21C432B360), unlocked it with the unlock pwd and tried to flash the TWRP (twrp-3.1.0-2-berlin.img) with 'fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.0-2-berlin.img'. After that I get always the same message after reboot or if I try to enter the recovery mode.
Any suggestions?
Thank you
Hi there,
I have found it. To get the TWRP Screen I had to press all 3 Buttons (Volume Up, Volume Down and Power) at startup.
Hope this helps.
Sadly this doesn't work here, on a BLN-L21C432B130 with EMUI 4.x and Android 6.x
3 Button start method brings up always the EMUI recovery screen.
Power Button + Volume up Button works fine here with all TWRP versions up to 3.1.0-0, but never on a newer one.
Additional hint: It works only if the USB cable isn't plug into the device and if the phone was powered down before. That must me the reason why I never get that up, if I'm rebootin using the command $ fastboot reboot cause for this the cable connection has to be used
@all who stuck in bootscreen...flash THIS TWRP...
[LG G4 H815] Just need to reboot into recovery directly...
I have kinda the same problem: I flashed TWRP and a friend of mine told me that I need to reboot into recovery directly after flashing TWRP because otherwise the system replaces TWRP again when I type "fastboot reboot". The problem is I cant shutdown the phone and also the key combination of the LG G4 is not rlly working, I tried it dozens of times on my other one... Is there ANY other way of booting to recovery from bootloader / fastboot? Thanks in advance!
P.S.: I read something about "boot twrp.img"... Is that an option or does it just also flash TWRP?

Hi guys.
My issue: I had TWRP 3.0.2.1 on my honor and decided to update to latest version. Big error.
I have the TWRP app installed and I followed the procedure to flash recovery with that app. It seemed everything was fine, because it said ""recovery flashed".
Now when I try to enter recovery, my phone gets stuck at logo "your device is booting now".
I have to reboot in EMUI recovery to go out from that stuck page and to load normally the phone.
So I decided to flash recovery in the old ADB fashioned way: now when I get to "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img", the phone tells me "FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)"
Practically now I have no TWRP and I do not know how to proceed.
Some good Samaritan out there?
Thanks.
My firmware is latest Nougat (BLN-L21C432B360).
I tried to flash TRWP 3.1.1. Before this try, I had version 3.0.2-1 as written above. I flashed twrp when I still had Android 6 with EMUI 4.
Regarding the way to enter TWRP, yes, I know the method and I do it.
The problem is my phone don't enter twrp but remain stuck at logo.
It seems that the recovery is not present or has problems.
I've tried even to reflash the old recovery, just in case. Nothing.
Try this-
flash stock recovery for your model.
boot normally.
flash TWRP latest.
Now I try and post later.
What a mess. I should leave the old 3.0.2 which was working good...
I was already on nougat and the 3.0.2 was still working perfectly. I had flashed that twrp when I was still on 6.0 and after the update with firmware finder it was still working.
Moreover I used the official TWRP app to update and it failed miserably even if it said flash successful at the end of operation....
Then I used the classic way with ADB and still nothing.
I can see on the Windows shell "failed: command not allowed"

AFAIK, Factory Reset Protection is linked to account protection in case someone steals the phone. In this way it should be more difficult to wipe completely the phone and use it.
Anyway, just checked in fastboot and no, FRP is locked. I just had a look in developer options and I noticed that "Enable OEM unlocked" is greyed out. But it should not have nothing to do with flashing the recovery.
Or not?
Let's see

Unlock your boot loader
Bootloader is unlocked.
For some reason, my "OEM unlocked" option turned greyed out, and FRP is locked again.
I will try this eve to lock bootloader again and restart the unlocking operation from scratch.

In emui 5 OEM unlock option is not there and can only be found in MM or Emui 4.x
you mean that even if I can't access TWRP, this should be still there and I cannot lock bootloader?
And you advice to do a factory reset first.
If this doesn't work? Then?

Yeah exactly. See SS
This was there till emui 4
So how can I solve the problem?
Someone told me the only way is to lock bootloader in order to have again this option available to be turned on... And so start the process again.
At the moment I cannot access TWRP nor flash it through ADB. Practically even if bootloader is unlocked, I have a rooted phone with no possibility to do anything else... Regarding flashing of course.
Thank you for your replies.
Anyway I really know now that I cannot buy honor for flashing.
I just tried a factory reset from advanced options.
After all the pin request etc, the phone rebooted and get stuck on the initial window (your phone has been unlocked and cannot be trusted-your phone is booting now...).
So I had to press usual buttons to enter in emui recovery, the only way I can get the rebooting option from this state.
Of course the phone is not reset.
I give up. This crappy phone is taking too much time of my life.
I will keep it like this. And I'm not sure at all I will get future OTA update.
I never EVER had these issues with Samsung phones or HTC, and believe me that I was flashaholic... I flashed tens and tens of ROMs, I rooted and unlocked all my previous phones with no glitches or whatever..,
This time I tried honor for the price.
Never again for flashing or playing around.
Just for normal, classic phone use, hoping it will last some other month before I purchase another brand.
Thank you all.
Of course my thoughts about this ****ty phone were all right.
I received the ota update for version b365, downloaded and OF COURSE STUCK at boot logo after automatic restart...
I will never be able to install anything else because the recovery is corrupted.
I am condemned to stay with b360 until this cursed phone will die for natural causes...

But recovery can be changed mate. Try twrp with new thread in my signature and follow steps, it won't be a trouble. Try once in free time as i know you already are frustrated with trying all ways.
The TWRP on official TWRP site sadly won't work for our berlin devices, i neither know why it is still there sincerely. Personally i can't recommend the usage of TWRP official app for our phone as it downloads a wrong version... you have to get the OpenKirin edition from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-6x/development/twrp-t3583413 and flash that via adb fastboot. Be sure to have "USB debug" on by developer options menu, and to have installed HiSuite (just to have all the functional drivers)
I thank you all for your patience and replies.
But as Shashank said, I'm really frustrated because I tried everything in the past.
Now I'm rooted (luckily) but with FRP locked. It seems the reason why I cannot flash nothing.
In any case I will try again the suggestion of redskull. The last hope!
Thanks.
I have a Honor 6x (BLN-L24) with EMUI 5+, Android Nougat, all updated. It is the U.S. edition. I unlocked the Bootloader, installed ADB / Fastboot tools and can flash the correct TWRP recovery image (3.1.1-0-berlin.img) but everytime I try to reboot into recovery, the standard EMUI recover overwrites TWRP and I just end up in the EMUI recovery.
I've looked at every forum I can find, articles, etc... but can't wrap my head around this one. If anyone with a similar experience and/or with a solution could help, I'd be most grateful.
Thank you!
I agree with with Rommco05. He IS correct, as I wondered the same thing till I realized to try unplugging it. Also make sure its the Power AND up buttons at same time. If you happen to hold only the up button it will take you to the erecovery feature where it trys hooking to WiFi for updates , which wont help you either.
Still doesn't work
Thanks for the responses. Unfortunately, unplugging doesn't do it either with the key combination you suggested. The following article is helpful for key combinations but alas, it still won't load into TWRP.
It is really strange as I can't even get past "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted" screen now. It just stays there...
Super frustrating. I didn't know if it had anything to do with my model being the BLN-L24 US version. I bought it at BestBuy unlocked.
Also, when I try to download "Latest Version and Recovery" from "Huawei eRecovery", I'm getting "Getting package info failed". I
Try OpenKirin twrp from recoveries section here on 6X forums

That's not the cause. My phone is also a BLN-L24 purchased from Best Buy and I have no issues using TWRP. What did you do after you install TWRP? Did you let the phone just reboot or did you try to go into TWRP before rebooting?
This is straight from TWRP website:
"Note many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot. To prevent this, use Google to find the proper key combo to enter recovery. After typing fastboot reboot, hold the key combo and boot to TWRP. Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP. If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install."
Key combination timing?

This is helpful, thank you. I found a page "Key Combinations Clarified for Honor 6x" which has a number of key combinations but nothing is helpful in my case that I know of. Do I use these key combinations imediately after the flash?
Is there a specific tutorial or guide that was helpful for you? I'd be grateful for any further assistance.
Thanks.

That is the problem, I'm unable to enter TWRP after flashing it, unplugging the usb cable, holding power/volume up...
Finally got Twrp installed. Rooted and installed custom Rom (lineageos) but when I reboot after flash screen, it's just blank...
If I were you, I would go completely back to stock and start over. Once you fastboot flash TWRP, it is imperative that you reboot back into TWRP before booting into the OS. Also, bootloaders don't overwrite recoveries. They are separate partitions, so your title is a bit misleading.
Regardless, you must still have stock recovery on your device since it is "defaulting" to that instead of TWRP. Like I said, it is extremely important to boot into recovery after you first flash it.
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
let it do it's thing.
fastboot reboot recovery OR you can do it manually in TWRP right after the flash.
Have you tried rebooting to recovery from the system?
Connect your device to your computer, enable USB Debugging, and run
Code:
adb reboot recovery
from Windows CMD or Linux Shell, or any other one you prefer.
If this works, then you are doing the recovery key combination wrong.
Cheers
I'm having the same issue as OP. I have a BLN-L24 from Best Buy in the US. Reverted to emui 4.1 and android 6, unlocked bootloader, flashed twrp-3.2.1-0-berlin.img, and it keeps booting into huawei erecovery.
I didn't get any info on what the OP actually did to get twrp installed.
FWIW, there is no "fastboot reboot recovery"
FWIW2, you can't turn off the honor 6x from the bootloader. the best you can do is a hard reboot.

Hi there..
In fastboot mode, are you seeing "Phone unlocked".. if so then your phone has been unlocked successfully...
Also i dont think you can boot into TWRP by pressing a combination of Power and volume buttons.. You will have use the ADB commands to get in to TWRP. If you are able to boot normally into the phone.. Use ADB commands to boot to recovery.. that will help you install Magisk or SuperSu to root your device
ADB command is - adb reboot recovery.. this will allow you to get into TWRP (if it is installed without any problems)
Hope it helps!
Hi there?
Actually i have tried the command {fastboot reboot recovery} it goes on the screen where I'm stuck right now. Adn my is working as it do but I'm just not able to go to recovery. I don't know what to and we all know without recovery i can't get root and i really need Root.

Can u try posting the screenshot of Ur fastboot as well as the screen u land on when u run the fastboot reboot recovery
Hi,
I am trying to get Lineage installed on my Oppo R7 Plus although I've run in to a snag and have been googling and going round in circles all day trying to find a solution. All the guides state to go in to recovery mode or bootloader, however my device doesn't have this. I understand Oppo released an update which removed the bootloader thus making it impossible to flash with a different ROM. One work around I've read is to flash an older version of ColorOS, and I have downloaded this from a link in another thread. However this still poses the same problem, I cannot flash it, as you need fastboot to do so, which is the problem, as I cant do this.... catch 22 !
Does anyone have a solution for this or should I just give up and sell the unit on Ebay ?
Any help appreciated.
This is a link to a color os with an unlockable bootloader. Place it in the root of your internal SD. Boot into recovery and flash with color is recovery. After flashing you can boot into fastboot and run fastboot OEM unlock and flash twrp. Only for r7plusf.

I've tried this and it doesnt work, it never boots in to recovery. Ive also used ADB using adb reboot bootloader and other commands with no joy. From what I ascertained from reading other threads and posts elsewhere this is due to OPPO updating the OS and removing the option to do this. If you have their latest OS, you're pretty stuck., which I am Just wondered if there was any way around this before I gave up.
Edit: Just tried this one final time and it worked !! All the guides say hold volume up and power, not volume DOWN. Thanks very much for the input

Hey guys, my Honor is in brick state. I pushed a rollback package while I was in marshmallow (but with wrong ROM, so I was trying to rollback again and retry the procedure) and the phone got stuck in Honor blue screen at loop.
It won't let me power off, it justs turns on again. All button combinations won't work apparently. I can't get to recovery or e-recovery.
I tried depleting the battery. But as soon as I connect to the charger, it powers on. If I try the button combination before putting charge, it also doesn't work.
After the first successful rollback to MM, I think the bootloader got locked.
adb and fastbook can't seem to list the device.
I can get to fastboot and rescue mode, but I don't know the procedure from there.
So, is this a unsolvable brick? Or is there anything else that can be done to save this phone?
Thanks a lot for your feedback.
use dc unlocker to flash unlock bootloader and after dc flasher

It's easy. I had a similar problem too. Just when your phone attempts to boot, hold the Volume Down button and immediately connect it to the PC (within 1-2 second). It should go into fastboot mode. Now, open Huawei Multi Tool and unlock your bootloader then use the tool to unbrick your phone, start with flashing stock recovery and then the correct firmware.

If you're stuck on "Your device is booting now". This probably means your recovery is screwed. Don't worry, flash stock recovery and erecovery using Multi-Tool.
Then try the dload method. If the problem persists, then flash the correct TWRP then use HuRUpdater to flash the ROM you want. This will definitely fix the issue.

The recovery images from Multi-Tool servers seem to work! Thanks a lot. I was able to get to erecovery, now I'll proceed as decribed by you! :good::good::good:
