Jeah, this metod will not work to anyone, who have locked bootloader.
But, there is bug, when bootloader is unlocked (atlest in fastboot its shows that its unlockd), but realy its locked.
Why there are this bug? i dont know, but its happen when someone try with dload method to fix phone, or when with twrp recovery are flashing official nuget zip. In developer options there are turned of option "alow to unlock bootloader", and thats reason why cant flash with fastboot thease img files.
So, at the end, this method will work only in certain circumstances, and not for everyone who bricked phone, due this bug .

Quick question, I bricked my phone when I did a factory reset and deleted internal storage and accidentally deleted important files while doing so. I flashed a stock update from the warehouse and completely deleted the system instead. I then flashed Lineage ROM which reinstalled the system but now causes me to get stuck in bootup. When I installed Lineage ROM, I got the following error.

Download the FULL OTA files on the last approved update you were and flash via HuRupdater method.
If you are on the Chinese variant, you can flash stock recovery via fastboot and then download firmware from there on.

does your boot loader have the tag **unlocked** ? only if it has unlocked tag you can install using fastboot else you get the error. unlock your bootloader, flash the zip/image, once done relock the bootloader if you need.
to unlock the bootloader using htcdev.. i need to update the software to 1.57.. and i am getting signature error ehile doing so using the patch provided earlier in the thread

Yes you need to update your boot loader. Download the RUU from HTCDev. run the ruu and check for the rom.zip file in temp folder. rename the rom.zip to PH06IMG.zip and update the zip file through bootloader(power + volume key method). Then your bootloader will be updated. Revert if any errors.
Dont use the patch, try the official version. It will work.
Hi hrishikol ,
i did a deodex to my phone app and now the chacha is stuck at the HTC logo,
can you please give me ideas on how to solve this problem?
i have installed CWM,in order to flush a ROM ,
but it is not functioning properly
The Guides above are incomplete ( missing a few steps ) and will result in boot loop most of the time. the correct procedure is :
Part 1 : Setting up Fastboot.
1. Make sure you have java installed, if not get it from here : http://java.com/ and install it.
2. Download the Android SDK manager from here : http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html ( get the exe download )
3. Install SDK manager, then run the android SDK manager.
4. Once launched it will show you available updates, choose ONLY these two "Android SDK Platform Tools and Android SDK Tools" and update them.
5. After update is complete close the sdk manager and go to the SDK manager platform-tools folder, normal path is : ( C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools )
6. Copy the following 3 files from this folder : "adb.exe" , "AdbWinApi.dll" and "fastboot.exe"
7. go to your c drive ( c:\ ) and make a new directory called "fastboottools"
8. copy the 3 files above into your fastboottools folder.
9. so now your should have a folder like this : "c:\Fastboottools" with the following 3 files in it "adb.exe" , "AdbWinApi.dll" and "fastboot.exe".

That is it, Fastboot tools is setup. Proceed to next guide.
Flashing guide :
1. download the ROM from here:
ruu_chacha_htc_asia_wwe_1.57.707.2_radio_47.23.35. 3033h_7.51.35.19_release_228383_signed.zip
2. Extract and copy the system.img AND boot.img to the same directory as your fastboot tools "C:/fastboottools" ( make sure to copy both files )
3. Enter the fastboot mode on your phone by pressing volume down + power button after the device has been turned off.
4. Choose fastboot on the phone by pressing power button, and then connect your phone to your PC
5. Using fastboot tools, open the Command prompt and navigate to "C:\fastboottools" then run this command on cmd: "fastboot flash system system.img"
6. Dont reboot, Using fastboot tools, run this command on cmd: "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
( The two commands in step 5 and 6 are different, make sure to type each one correctly and to do them straight after each other )
7. Reboot phone. let it boot up, you will still get bootloop or error message.
8. Take out the battery.
9. Boot back into bootloader ( Volume down + power ).
10. Now choose recovery.
11. Phone should now reboot itself and bam, all should now work fine.

Hi this is a thread for new users to revert back to stock rom in huawei Honor 4x from their custom roms .
Follow these steps only if have unlocked your bootloader and had custom rom installed already. Of course you must have already installed custom recovery (twrp or cwm). This guide will also allow you to revert back to stock huawei recovery.
Step 1 : Download the ROM Package from the link~1GB)
http://www.huaweidevice.co.in/Downloads/Cherry-L04-V100R001C900B126.rar
Step2 : Extract using Winrar. (Inside dload folder you will find Update.app file)
Step3 :Now Download Huawei Update extractor and install
http://cn.club.vmall.com/thread-3239393-1-1.html
Step4 : Now Run the huawei update extractor and point to the update.app file.Now the contents of the update.app file will be displayed.
Select the Boot.img,recovery.img and System.img alone and select extract by rightclicking it.
Step5:Now we need the adb tool kit, .(~10mb)
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8CpdMmTiXaVdS1Eam5RY3BVR3c/view?pli=1
Step6:
Install and configure the Adb. Make sure once installed connect the device to usb and press vol down + Power button together.It will enter fastboot mode. Make sure phone is unlocked.
Step7:Now copy the extracted recovery.img,system.img and boot. img to the adb root folder which should be in c:\adb\.
Step8: Now in terminal window of adb , type these
1. "adb devices" -Displays some id of your device which makes sure your device is connected.
2. "Fastboot Flash recovery recovery.img" - Flashes stock recovery
3. "fastboot flash system system.img" - Replaces your custom rom with stock rom
4."Fastboot flash boot boot.img" - Flashes boot partition which is need to boot stock rom.
Step9:Now all is flashed.
"adb reboot" - Reboots your device.
Step10:Wait for few mins and your phone reboots into stock emui rom. Now if you want the second emui update. Download from hihonour.in and flash the downloaded zip with stock recovery.

I think you've done great job here
Thank you
after flashing the old firmware's files i got no boot and i dont mean bootloop i mean phone is not booting at all just stopped at the first screen
is there any solution
I did everything you mentioned but in adb devices its showing No devices found. I forgot to turn on usb debugging. What to do now. Its struck on the window Fastboot and rescue mode.
---------- Post added at 02:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:04 PM ----------
Hey Huawei. I contacted you earlier for the bootloader unlock key and got the same from you which I would Like to thank yOu for same. After unlocking bootloader I installed MIUI ROM on my Honor 4x (Che1-l04) and it ran smoothly. But I didn't like it much and wanted to change back to my stock ROM. I tried to Install your Honor 4x Android L. I extracted the ZIP file using Huawei Update extractor and did the steps mentioned by XDA Developers. Here- http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/reverting-to-stock-rom-honor-4xmsm8916-t3168732
After doing All steps While doing ''adb reboot'' Its saying DEVICE NOT FOUND in cmd. I Found that i forgot to turn on USB debugging. But now my device is struck on FASTBOOT AND RESCUE MODE.(PHONE UNLOCKED).I am not able to tur it on. I tried many steps to show my device but failed. Please help me regarding this. I will be highly thankful to you
Beware!
This tutorial seems to be written very sloppy and doesn't work at all. (at least not on a CHE2-11)
After entering fastboot mode no adb commands will work.
"adb boot" must be replaced by fastboot reboot.
After applying your changes however my pone hangs at the first screen (showing "honor")
I've the same problem than you tosho1. And the adb commands not work in bootloader/fastboot mode. Only in recovery and system
some issuses
when i extract the recovery, boot and system.img files from the UPDATE.APP file with the Update Extractor tool, it creates 6 files instead of 3:
1. BOOT.img
2. BOOT.img.header
3. RECOVERY.img
4. RECOVERY.img.header
5. SYSTEM.img
6. SYSTEM.img.header
What is the purpose of the file which ends with ".header" extension ?

In case, anyone wants to know how to downgrade from Marshmallow to kitkat on honor 4x. Refer this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-4x/help/provide-downgrade-procedure-emui-4-0-to-t3409717/page2
Solution is given on Page 2. Also, you cannot downgrade to 4.4.4 directly from 6.0.1. You need to go from 6.0 to 5.1 and then 4.4.4. For details refer the link.

I cant install the adb tool ki. it keeps closing
hey
i was working on boot.img for add TWRP 2.7 Recovery
after i flashed boot.img from here
How to Install TWRP 2.7 Recovery:
TWRP 2.7 works only with the Android 4.4.2 KitKat powered Huawei Ascend P6.
You must have installed Android ADB & Fastboot drivers on your PC. Get the Fastboot folder using the guide.
Once done with the ADB and Fastboot installation, download TWRP 2.7 Recovery.img file.
Rename the downloaded file to boot.img.
Enable USB debugging mode on your Huawei Ascend P6 and connect it to your PC.
Now open the Fastboot folder that you created using our ADB & Fastboot guide.
Press and hold the shift key and then right click on an empty area inside the Fastboot folder, now click on “Open Command Window Here”.
Now in command prompt type “adb reboot bootloader”.
It should reboot your phone into the bootloader mode, now push this command in command window
“fastboot flash boot boot.img”
This will quickly flash the TWRP 2.7 recovery in your device.
Once done, reboot your device.
Boot into recovery by pressing Volume Up or Down Key as soon as you see the Red LED while booting up your phone.
You should see the TWRP recovery interface now.
That’s all with the recovery installation on the Huawei Ascend P6. In case you got any queries or your facing any problems regarding this post, feel free to stop by the comment box below and reach us. Thanks all.

Hi all,
Well I love my phone, just love it! BUT having bought it from China, like many I am stuck with the Chinese Model and firmware. Huawei Australia have assisted in unlocking the bootloader, now I am ready to root the phone. BUT, I have not had any luck sourcing a root method for it. Can someone please PLEASE help.
I am desperate as it keeps booting me out of Google Play Services, rendering my Huawei watch useless (ironic huh)
Any help would be appreciated. Email me if you like [email protected]

That sounds to easy, only question, how do I do that? Is there an instruction manual or guidance anywhere?
I have flashed other phones in the past but this one is stumping me.
I have looked for some of these methods only to be completing surveys that inundate me with spam and phone calls, only to be left without the downloads that I needed. Did I mention how much I love my phone?
Thanks again
Michael
Managed to root my phone.. even when I have updated the EMUI to B018, but there was an issue.. I tell you below
Step I follow from Chinese Forum below...
Preparation step :
1. download the tools from
https://www.mediafire.com/?9drsdo2f6hn4j34
2. Extract the content to your local. Note there are two folders :
- Folder 1 is for the tool that contains the TWRP recovery.img and the adb/fastboot tool,
- Folder 2 is for the original recovery
3. Copy the SuperSU zip to your phone (either in internal or external memory of your phone)
Installation step :
Step 0, unlock your bootloader (search around on how to do it)
1. Since I am using mac, somehow I don't need to install any driver, but if you using windows, install all the driver yourself
2. Enable the developer mode in your phone, and after that enable the usb debugging
3. Turn off your phone, and boot to fastboot (in off mode, connect the phone with your PC then press Volume Up and Power Button together)
4. Since now your phone has been connected to the PC, go to that Tool folder in respective of your OS, then overwrite the recovery with TWRP with fastboot command (install custom recovery) *note : for mac just add "./" in every command
- check the whether its connected : fastboot devices
- install TWRP : fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
5. Restart your phone and boot to recovery
- restart : fastboot reboot
- after reboot, turn off your phone
- reboot to recovery : turn on your phone by holding Volume Down with Power button
- Now you are at TWRP
6. Install SuperSU (root)
- Install SuperSU zip that has already been copied to your phone using TWRP (use the Install mode)
7. Reboot the phone
- Use reboot function in twrp
8. Profit
Theoritically the above things works but I have some issues following the above :
- After step 4, after recovery being flashed with TWRP seems like my phone Boot Partition is being overwritten too
- So when I rebooted the phone, it boot to TWRP instead
- So I tried to re-flashed the recovery with the original EMUI rom recovery (go to the folder "2.P8Max_Official_Recovery(For_restoration)" to find the original recovery.img). Also note that in the this folder, the adb and fastboot is only for mac. The one for windows use it in the tools
- This is done by going to fastboot again, then do command : fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
- This time using the original recovery
- Now when I rebooted the phone, it goes to EMUI recovery, then I just clicked restart to system or something
- After this, everything fixed, and I have SuperSU install and phone rooted
You can follow the above, but do it at your own risk, I am not responsible if your phone brick hehehe..

I have flashed other phones in the past but this one is stumping me.
I have looked for some of these methods only to be completing surveys that inundate me with spam and phone calls, only to be left without the downloads that I needed. Did I mention how much I love my phone?
Thanks again
Michael

I am so so sorry and a little embarrassed to ask this.
1. I am using the And it sees my phone
2. I am not sure how to fastboot.
3. Do I install the file "install this file with install zip from twrp" onto my device? (p8 max)
Again, I thank you.

I will try this when i get home. I am always confused by the process. I am to old for all of this

BTW you will get in a Bootloop if your dont know how to exit I would not root your phone!
Sadly, this does not work for me. I did everything you suggested and in the command window I get nothing
I know the risks ( I think)

Thanks so much for your concern, I know. But I love the phone but need to make it more Android (Google) friendly as it has Chinese firmware which keeps ending any relationship I have with google play services thus rendering the phone useless (almost)
You have been so helpful

The recovery img file link did you downloaded it?
You must download it and but the recovery.img file in fastboot folder
Then rename it to recovery.img.
And open cmd orders from fastboot folder .
Just type
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
You must download the recovery file into the same folder that you ran your command and in your case "p8 max root". Make sure that the recovery filename is recovery.img instead of some other names.

Hello,
I have twice but now I am stuck on the Huawei logo and powered by Android screen. I can boot into Stock Bootload but no longer TWRP
even though I have reflashed recovery twice. Just chinese language and the EMUI screen with the three options
I think it's time to unroot and flash a new system and do it like i posted, then it will work!

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.
