Hi all
I have a huawei gr5 2017 bll-l22 that is totally bricked.. I had it on newest stock firmware, and rootet and installed twrp 3.1.2 berlin edition. after reboot it could only boot to twrp, and not the system. I have tried to get out of this by flashing kangvip rom, but adter that i lost the bootscreen, so now it only shows a green screen with a red and blue box, and then boots to twrp.
I can get it to boot to download mode from twrp, but evwn though i have unlocked frp and bootloader, it now says "phone locked" and if i try to flash anything it says it is not allowed failing right away.
I can not go back to stock rom as the dload folder procedure fails to work, it does only boot to twrp no matter what key sequence i press when booting.
I can however install from twrp and use the restore function. I have tried to download a twrp backup from same model and it installs everything, but fails at restoring the recover partition.
Furthermore i can not mount vendor and product.
I am thinking if I now what partitions (mmcblk***) all the partitions is supposed to be on, i might be able to mount them manually from the terminal window in twrp.
Could someone with a working bll-l22 give me this info?
It is posIble to get a list of the mounted partitions including what block they are mounted on using the "Android device system information" tool.
I would be very gratefull for this info or any other help i could get with the problem.
The following method can help you recovering your device.
1. Download the Rollback package for the phone for US version. It is BLN-L24 available on Honor US site.
2. Download the base package available on the site BLN-L24B110
3. Copy the rollback package to a SD Card and use dload method.
4. Now copy the Base package for BLN-L24 using dload flash it.
5. The device will boot to US Version with MM firmware.
6. Now using Firmware Finder app Update to the version you require for your original model.
Try this is it work.
I tried the rollback on my original Huawei gr5 emui 5.bllll2 and bricked it.. I don't think you can use twrp for the most up to date firmware for this phone yet?? I've been searching for ages but not sure if I want to try it again..
No do not use TWRP for rollback package. Boot the phone to Fastboot and flash the stock recovery. Now use the Volume Up+Volume Down+Power Key combination to rollback using dload method. Always remember to keep TWRP on recovery2 partition which is a safe option. It will have your stock and TWRP both on the phone,
Use this procedure
1.Download package from support sitehttp://consumer.huawei.com/in/support/mobile-phones/honor6x-in-sup.htm
2.Then extract update.app from zip file
3.boot in fastboot mode and flash stock recovery image on recovery not on recovery2
4.Now boot into the twrp and enable mtp mode
5.create 'dload' folder in internal storage and put update.app in dload folder
6.then power off device
7.boot your phone pressing Volume UP+Volume DOWN + Power Off simultaneously
8.then it will start updating

thanks for all the replys.. none of the solutions work.. the dload function is not working (tried with sdcard and internal memory) and in fastboot on the phonescreen in the bottom it says "phone locked" and all attempts to flash whatever img file results in error "remote, not allowed".. I have succesfully (allmost) recovered a fulæ system via restore function in twrp and a downloaded backup.. but it fails when it reaches vendor and product..
I have noticed that if i use terminal command "mount -a" it says thay it fails to mount vendor and produkt on /dev/block/mmcblk0p47 & /dev/block/mmcblk0p48.. but those do not exist.. in /dev/block/mmc**** the numbers go from only .
I have tried editing /etc/recovery.fstab, and manually mounted vendor and produkt to all "free" mmcblk0p* but only changes the error from "invalid argument" to "block device needed" when trying to mount them or work with them in twrp
i mean the numbers in /dev/block/mmcblk0p goes from 1 to 42 only
Okay!! So I tried for the millionth time to use the dload function.. I did everything as all the other times.. formated the sdcard, made the dload folder, copied the update.app to the folder and used the three keys to boot..
LOW AND BEHOLD! For some reason this time it actually got to the screen with the cirklecle saying emui, and started the update..
After it finnished it rebooted, still showong the green screen with blue and red box, but after a minute is went to black screen, still powered on..
I left it maybe 15 minutes.. still nothing.. So i rebootet to recovery, but now the twrp is gone and it boots to erecovery.. it offers to download and recover via wifi, but it fails to get package data from server..
So i tried to use three other update.app files, wich all failed because the model is wrong it says.. Even though i used ones for gr5 2017 bll-l22..
Strange.. but after these failed attempts, i decided to try another update.app file and by accident press reboot in stead of shutdown in the erecovery.. And now the phone still shows the green screen with boxes, but then i got a Huawei logo, and it freaking booted the phone completely!
Only difference i can think of with the dload method, from all my millions last attempts, is that this time i formated the sdcard in another phone first.. not in the huawei or the pc..
I am actually writing this on the former bricked bll-l22!
One thing that bugs me is that the phone name and model number in "about phone" is wrong.. name says onyx a168, and model says generic_a15...
Any idear how i get this fixed?
Okay.. new update.. Trying to fix the wrong model name and number and escape the testkeys release OS, I ended up trying to flash again with the dload folder.. only file it would install was the testkeys version.. So i tried to flash manually the stock rom in fastboot, i successfully flashed both recovery and recovery2, but it failed to upload system after first partial image was sent.. So it left me with a crippled system that would not boot once again.. andnow the dload function did not work again.. I tried for some reason to relock the bootloader, thinking that might help, with the fastboot command "fastboot oem relock ********" and then it wanted to reboot to restore factory setting.. Only now it halted again in boot screen, and would not even go into recovery or fastboot anymore.. Connectiong to pc was also not possible as it just did nothing.. The pc did not see it when connected.. So i was out of options, the phone would only stay on initial boot screen forever and get very hot..
I read in another post in this forum that another user had contacted Huawei and told them he had rooted ect and bricked his phone, and they fixed it anyway under warranty.. And i have still (technically anyways) warranty on the device..
OK so i called Huawei in Thailand (where it is bought and i live), and told them what the problem with the phone was, not mentioning root though, just told them the symtoms it showed now.. They found that nearest service center is 4 hours from where i live, and asked if it was convinient for me to go there.. As i said no, not really, they offered to send a currier for the phone! Next morning the currier got the phone at my house, and three days later he brought is back (today).. They have changed the motherboard and the phone is like brand new again!! Under warranty and with free currier service on top too!! I feel confident the service center without a doubt knew what the cause would be for a phone to be so f*cked up as it was, only showing a green screen with blue and red box and nothing else..
Huawei you rock!! That is just world class, first class, customer service and warranty service!!
My wife gave the stink eye and made me promise to not f*ck it up again hahahaha
Lets see if i can keep it. Maybe i should just use my old galaxy s5 to fool around with in stead.. That i know ho to fix even if bricked beyond boot and dead..
Whoa that's an awesome move by Huawei team, they even sent a courier at you?! That's how a customer care should always work. So nice
Yes they even sent a currier to my house.. And returned it same way, free of charge.. They freaking rock!

Fantastic. Haven't heard of any such positive support after sales. This is awesome atleast for you bro.
Sometimes its nightmare for user even for a small issue while claiming the warranty.
To be honest.. I was expecting a call from some "angry" support worker from Huawei saying: "sorry we cant help you, unless you pay this and that!".. But i was very wrong and very pleased!

They are being served by the same backend.its just a front end changed. We had lot of talk on this with Huawei CEO as well in China and were clarified.
Another option
Since you have twrp you are in good shape.
What you need to do first is download the files to an sd card from
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-6x/development/rom-t3641267 (unoficial.zip and vendor IMG. --opengapps is optional and can be done later)
Step two download the .zip from https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-6x/development/rom-t3641768 (pa_berlin - same thing with open gapps again)
Now if you still have adb tools on your computer you are good.
You need to now put the SD card in the phone and boot to TWRP. Go to wipe and click advanced wipe, and select everything except internal memory and external sd card.
Now, Click on install and find the FIRST RROS zip you downloaded and install that.
Now, go back to the install and install the vendor img. Then go back and go to the file manager and locate that vendor image and copy it then paste it to the SD Card that is on the internal memory, not the external SD card that it is already on.
Now, plug your phone into your computer and open your adb tools command prompt. More than likely it will not show up as a connected device and you will have to tinker around twrp and try adb sideload and if it doesn't work try shell fastboot reboot fastboot and so on. Eventually you will find an area that will allow adb commands.
When you do, type... adb shell
dd if=/sdcard/vendor.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/vendor
Now unplug your phone and wipe cache and dalvik and reboot back to twrp. You could reboot your system but it will not boot all the way up but installing this first allows you to install the next set of downloads and your phone will work.
Now that you are back in TWRP click install and find the second zip you downloaded (pa_Berlin) and install it. Wipe cache and dalvik. And reboot system. Your phone will now boot up.
If you enjoy google apps download open gapps and install it in TWRP. The Pico version only has play store , so you can install what you want.
Have fun.

I'm in a similar situation as the original post, but the /vendor and /prodcut partitions appear as being 0MB and no matter what they always fail to be mounted when using TWRP.
I can do every step you mention but not the installation of vendor.img from TWRP as the partition cannot be mounted.
Do you by any chance know would a solution be to get /vendor mounted and follow fully your steps?

Hi guys..hope somebody can help me to get my phone working again..i had lollipop installed and by accident I deleted the internal memory..the only thing what I can is to reboot to recovery twrp..and then on my pc phone shows up..1 cust drive and 1 internal..which is empty..do you have any idea about that? thanks a lot..please help )))
Download the stock rom for your phone model (tl-10) official one, NOT beta version, better directly from Huawei web site.
Extract stock recovery from downloaded file (by using huawei extractor app).
Using ADB commands, flash stock recovery. Then copy stock rom to sdcard and proceede with 3button procedure.
If any of these operations sound new to you, please use "search" button in these forums.

I have downloaded from Huawei web site 120sp04 firmware. I extracted recovery, flashed with adb commands. Copied the stock rom to sd card, and i am not able to force my phone to start update. keeps restarting. is the a special trick for this 3 button procedure? phone should be off, but from bootloader i cannot switch of the phone. Is it possible that the phone doesn't recognize my SD Card? please advise.
Please check, there' s a command trough ADB (I think adb reboot) wich reboot phone.
Then, someone, has been forced to keep the SD card NOT inserted into the phone, waited for reboot and then (after huawei logo I think, but I'm not sure; please check) inserted the SD card.
Then proceede with local update (forced method).
As for the 3button method, simply press and keep pressed volume up+volume down + power on button. All togheter.
Then the phone must boot automatically into recovery and start the procedure itself.
It i clear: stock recovery MUST be already installed !!!

The only thing what i can do is, to flash recovery and boot from fastboot.zip( http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-7/help/5-1-to-4-4-2-bootloop-t3132888 ) i guess for L09 version, where i can get to update mode with 3 buttons...all other possibilities are not possible. even if i extract from original firmware recovery and boot images, nothing work..i was going from B125 back to B123 to B128 and B313 when in TWRP i deleted everything. Phone is charging, i can turn it off..OS is missing..is it possible that somebody would make a back up in twrp and i would flash it on my phone? or what version of firmware i should start with? what about sideload? does it help? please advise.

Hello!
I have similar problems, but i have the L09.
Check if you can mount system. Or if you can wipe system, because i can't
Good luck!
I found a guide to downgrade my honor h60 l02 and it said to replace the recovery and system with the stock ones from SYSTEM.img and RECOVERY.img in official roms (through fastboot) and I got those files from version b535 using huawei extractor. After flashing those 2 I couldn't start the 3 button format procedure to update with the b535 rom in the dload folder on my sdcard. So I searched for an unbrick procedure and found one on multitool honor 6 xda page. I flashed the boot,cust,system,recovery from b535 with multitool unbrick procedure and still couldn't get in the emui installation screen by pressing vol+vol-power. I tried reformatting sdcard to fat 32 and put again dload folder with update.app inside. I even tried to press the 3 buttons with card partially introduced but still can't start the update procedure. Used another microsd card but no starting. I finally tried to install a custom recovery but only got to install twrp 2.8.70 v2 for emui 4.0 . Before the whole BIG problem I think I had rom with 6.1.19 version which actually had problems with the bluetooth not starting and that was the reason I wanted to downgrade. I also tried to install 2 custom roms for h60 l02 but I got error on zip installation which seems weird considering at list that should work if I can't use the update procedure. I could probablly use fastboot to install all images required for rom but I can't find a scatter file info or a partition guide anywhere for h60 l02 because I cant install any zip from twrp recovery except gapps.
Any help is welcomed! I'll buy you a bear if u can help me !
Problem solved
So I finally got to fix the phone. I found out that the phone was updated to a Marshmallow rom in the beta stage by my friend who gave it to me. The rom was identified succesfully after some searches on 4pda.ru forums where a couple of russians are experimenting how to put android 6 on honor 6 devices. The version was 5.12.31_beta which in device id I think it apears as h60-C00b690sp01. I put the stock recovery and boot from that image with fastboot on phone. Wanted to put also system and cust images but the rom is an update zip which has mixt type of data (system, cust and a few other partition datas are directly in the zip with meta and inf datas while boot,recovery and a few other partition datas are inside the update.app in the zip). Luckilly for me after the boot and recovery flash I could start stock recovery with vol+power button press and also could finally start force update procedure with vol+vol-power buttons pressed (keep in mind that from fastboot I pressed the 3 buttons continuoselly while the phone restarted , went to a honor logo display, after about 5 seconds it restarted and started emui installation screen; for some reason even from powered off state the device needed to go to the honor screen before on the restart to emui installation screen and Ive seen videos where the devices just go straight to emui installation screen). I got a downgrade package from 4pda.ru forums and tried to install it with forced update procedure but it got stuck at 5%. After 1 more day I figured out that I need to pull the usb cable out before the emui installation screen because it would show a usb connected icon on screen instead of showing emui installation icon (I thought at first that thats how it should look for marshmallow stock roms xD) and Im thinking that if u keep usb cable plugged in it tries to get flash image from usb and if that is unplugged it tries to get image from sdcard dload folder. So I flashed the downgrade version and after restart to honor logo screen I restarted device to fastboot mode with ofc vol-power buttons pressed and pulled the sdcard out. I replaced downgrade package (update. app from H60-LX2_EMUI4.0_2_EMUI3.1 dload) with the dload folder of the b535 stable rom (H60-L02-L12_EMUI3.1_Android5.1_C00B535 rom) on the sdcard. I restarted device and used again 3 button update without usb plugged in xD and it installed all the way. After 100% installation the device rebooted and after showing a big „w” it got to pulsating honor logo screen and after about 10 minutes it showed me language menu for language selection. And the desperation saga ended xD. Happy ending!!!

Hey there,
first of all I want to say Thank You for this great community and the work at XDA. Awesome. :good:
I bricked my Honor 6 H60-L02 and I am lost to bring it back to life. :crying:
Where it started:
I was using the official ROM from this thread [OFFICIAL] Honor 6 (L02, L12, L04) Stock ROMs. To be more specific it was the latest Android 6.0 EMUI 4.0 B823 that I installed with all the different OTA-Files starting with the original 5.1 ROM B535. The Honor was rooted and also the bootloader is still unlocked (I already checked the status via Fastboot.).
After I while the Honor 6 started to crash sometimes and the headphone-buttons didn't worked anymore. Then a few days ago the phone crashed and I was not able to boot it again.
And so I tried this:
Using the Rollback-Zip to go back to 5.1. But the 3btn-method didn't worked. The phone didn't want to boot into the recovery. Also the Vol+ and Power-Button didn't work to start the Recovery of the phone. Result: Bootloop.
So I installed ADB and Fastboot (with all necessary drivers) and tried to flash the phone with the 5.1 B535 (as mentioned in Honor 6 H60-L02 Hard Bricked - Only access to fastboot (Vol+ and Usb PC)) because there isn't a 6.0 B823 ROM available. I was able to flash boot, recovery, cust, system, userdata and another one I forgot right now. But the result was the same: Bootloop and no 3-btn or recovery via Vol+ and Power-Button. I also tried to flash it with the HonorTool. Same result.
Then I tried to flash different TWRP versions as recovery. Result: The same as above.
So I tried another official ROM 5.1 B526 because someone had the same problem and was able to recover his phone with this ROM (another thread in the forum). But that didn't worked ether.
Then I tried to flash all the img-files of the 5.1. B535 as crc, ptable and so on because I thought that there could be the problem. But when I tried e.g. to flash crc I get the error FAILED: command not allowed. So I tried to unlock the phones partition via Fastboot and fastboot flashine unlock_critical. But using the command unlock_critical gives me also the Failed error. So I was lost again.
Status right now:
I'm still able to boot into the bootloader via Vol- and Power. But right now the phone was running out of battery. Means I see the red battery symbol when I try to start the phone via the power button (without connecting to the PC or charger) but it isn't booting even into the bootloop. The red battery symbol pops up for a second and the screen went black again.
When I use the charger then the symbol changes to a green battery and stays there, but not the moving one that indicates that the phone is charging. When I use the Power button with usb-charger connected to start the phone I'm trapped in the bootloop again.
You see I already tried a lot of different things I could find on the forum. But nothing worked for me.
I know that it was a fault to try to install 5.1 B535 without the rollback, but I wasn't able to rollback as mentioned under point 1.
Maybe anyone could give me a hint and help me to bring my phone back to life.
Thx a lot! I appreciate that al lot!
If you need anymore informations, plz let me know.

Just flash boot, Cust, recovery and system images and let it boot normally. Don't do any button combo. I have had instances where it works. Give it a try.
With which version?

Thx for your reply.
With which version should I flash? B535 or B526? Should I only flash the three images boot, cust and system? Nothing else?

You can use any firmware but the latest one should be better, and flash four images, boot, Cust, system and boot and let it boot normally.
Then put the dload folder with update.app in sd card and do an update from settings.
Thx. I will give it a try when I'm back from work.
I let you know if it is working.

I meant to say flash boot, Cust, recovery and system images.
Wrote boot twice
Nothing changed
Hey muradulislam,
Thx again.
I flashed the images (boot.img twice) but without success. Still the same error (with normal booting aka without any special button combination or with button combination). The honor boots and stays in the bootmode aka bootloop with the led blinkin red. And I still can't boot into recovery via Vol+ and Power..
Any other suggestions?

Of all the things you have already tried, the only thing remains to take it to a Huawei service center.
May be someone else can help you here but I have read most of honor 6 and 7 posts and I don't think there is anything there for this problem atm.
Hmm, thx. That is bad...
I bought this phone in China when I was there for work. And I suppose that the german service of Huwaei will not help me at all with this phone.
Does anybody else have any clue how to bring the phone back to life?
Thx a lot.

I myself have an H60-L01, bought it from china, bricked and tried everything to revive it but could not, still have to try Huawei customer service in Pakistan, am not sure whether they will be able to help me or not, but will give it a try. I wish you luck buddy. Hope you find a solution.
It's alive ;o)
The phone is working again.
Here are the steps I did for everybody else confrontated with same problem:
1. Download your last working ROM or OTA-File: In my case the OTA-File OTA-EMUI 4.0_H60-L02-L12_B811_B823.zip from this Mega-Link:
https://mega.nz/#F!ztYliaxL!4gfyXozSW51eNahGZBDgBQ!KwhlRKYR
2. Unzip the file and extract recovery.img and boot.img with the Huawei Update Extractor (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454).
3. Boot the phone into fastboot mode (connect the USB cable, press the power button to turn off and immediately press the volume down button).
4. Use fastboot to flash the two images of 2. If you need fatsboot you can find it here http://www.mediafire.com/download/o5ruw752ked884u/adb+H60.zip (Extract adb.zip and copy the extracted files from 2. in the folder adb. In the adb folder run cmd.exe as administrator.)
5. Use this commands for flashing:
fastboot devices => If the device is recognized correctly it is displaying a series of numbers
fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.img
fastboot flash boot BOOT.img
fastboot reboot
6. Charge the phone with the Huawei charger, not via USB/PC! (50% is enough.)
7. Download in the meantime the Developer ROM H60_EMUI3.1_Android5.1_6.1.1.zip from here:
https://mega.nz/#F!ztYliaxL!4gfyXozSW51eNahGZBDgBQ!6w5inQ6Z
8. Extract the zip file from 7. and copy UPDATE.app onto your SD-Card into /dload
9. Insert the SD without connecting.
9.1. Disconnect the USB cable from your PC or charger.
9.2. Press the Power button to turn off (maybe that is not necessary.)
9.3. When you feel the vibration press 3btn (Vol+ and Vol- and Power).
9.4. When the Honor logo appears connect your SD-Card (continue to press 3btn for 8 -10 more seconds) => Wait for the recovery process, it should start automatically.
10. After installation Android boots. Skip the first step installation (you should now have the 6.1.1. Developer-Edition installed). Rollback to Android 5.1.1 with the Rollback-File Rollback 591 EMUI3.0.zip from here:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/9qrd8zm9280gy5e/Rollback+591+EMUI3.0.zip
Do do so put the unzipped UPDATE.app from the Rollback-File onto your SD-Card and do a local update via the Update Manager.
11. Boot into Android again (it will still be the 6.1.1 Developer Edition). In my case I want to install the latest Android 5.1.1 B535 from here:
https://mega.nz/#F!ztYliaxL!4gfyXozSW51eNahGZBDgBQ!6w5inQ6Z
I did it via local update again.
12.. After installation and booting => Voila here is your working Android 5.1.1 B535 again. Have fun
13. Brick it again with updating to Android 6.0
I hope I could help somebody with my experience to bring his/her phone back to life.

The bootloader is unlocked. Root is. Phone is loaded into the error! no func. func_boot_kernel. If you try to enter into the recovery, the error! no func. func_boot_recovery.
The error is the same as here club.huawei.com/thread-7962289-1-1.html
I tried to put EMUI4.0, then the phone stopped working. Through ADB stitched, weighting system, boot, recovery, cust.img. It shows all ok. But then the error again. He tried to put different versions of TWRP. On the 3 button also does not work.
Thank you for your attention to my problem.

You can't use 3 button with custom recovery and root. It wont work.
You need stock recovery in the same version as the rest of files used to flash other partitions.
Flash all stock partitions, then just boot the phone. Check if it works. Forget about TWRP and root for now. One thing at a time.
Nothing helps. I sew different versions via Fastboot. Everywhere all shows OK. However, when you restart the exact same mistake again ..

You can also try installing custom recovery and restore a twrp backup of ROM.

I got a problem at 9.3 or 9.4. The recovery wont start i see only honor logo i used PE_EMUI3.1_Android5.1_6.1.1.zip (as developer edition i.e sdcard/dload/UPDATE.APP) and PE-UL00-V100R001CHNC00B200.zip to extract and flash BOOT.img and RECOVERY.img
any ideas why i can't enter in recovery? =(
EDIT: "fixed with DC-Phoenix tool"
Hi, after trying unlock my bootloader, I couldn't get into recovery mode without "Your phone cannot be trusted" getting stuck on my screen.
I re-locked the boot loader but now when I go into recovery it says "Data Partition is corrupted please format" then it asks me to connect to a wifi network which then just shows errors everytime the password comes up.
I tried to turn on USB Debugging to ADB sideload a firmware, but I can't because the phone has been resetted; if I try to enter a wifi password the keyboard doesnt show it's just the google voice (which doesn't work) with no options. If i skip the wifi option it just goes on the google login and gets stuck on "Checking Info".
Any solutions to the problem please?
EDIT: I just re-unlocked the bootloader and now its permanently stuck on "Your device cannot be trusted, booting now" regardless of what buttons I press during startup
EDIT 2: I fixed it, it was long and complicated but I got it to work, here's how.
1. When flashing TWRP, I realized I was flashing the TWRP for EMUI 4, so I flashed TWRP for EMUI 5. (Make sure Bootloader is unlocked)
First have all the adb/fastboot drivers, for windows shift + right click the folder and click "Open Command here"
Make sure the twrp img file is in the same folder as the adb folder.
On the honor 8 phone, if it is stuck like mine, turn the phone off and then hold Volume Down + Power Button until the download mode is on the screen
Type "fastboot flash recovery (twrpfilename).img"
Once it's done, turn it off and then hold power button + volume up AND volume down at once till TWRP comes on
(Continuously hold it, if the "Your Device cannot be trusted" screen comes on release)
2. (Make sure internal storage and data are backed up externally for this)
Reset system, data, cache/dalvik, and internal storage
3. Download Update.zip and the second .zip from a website on google, search Honor 8 Manual Nougat and click the link from smartstocknews (I can't post links) but do not follow the steps from that website, and also download GAPPS from open GAPPS. Make sure ARM64 is selected and not ARM as well as 7.0
4. After wiping, mount the Honor 8 by connecting it via USB to a computer, and press "Mount" on TWRP
Upload the both update.zip and update_data_full_hw_eu.zip and GAPPS ARM64 7.0 to internal or external storage
5. Exit mount and go to install, install the zips in this specific order and do not reboot in between
A) Update.zip
B) Update_data_full_hw_eu.zip
C) GAPPS.zip
6. Reboot after GAPPS is done (it might show already installed, if that's the case then it's alright, reboot anyways)
Download the 70mb package for firmware downgrade and the latest marshmallow firmware from your regional huawei's website.
Extract the small package and put the .app file in a folder called dload on the SD card and insert it in your phone.
Boot by holding volume + volume - and pressing power, holding all 3 buttons until the phone vibrates.
The package will flash and afterwards you repeat the process, this time using an .app file from the full marshmallow firmware.
The 70mb package installs not matter how messed up your file system is, and makes your phone ready for the MM firmware. This process brings any brick back to life. Good luck.
I too was trying to root my FRD-L04 and apparently used the wrong TWRP because now I get...
Code:
Unable to open ' ' to wipe crypto key
Unable to wipe Data
Unable to format to remove encryption
Failed to mount /data (invalid argument)
and I cant get the keyboard loaded so I can log into my wifi when I do a factory reset. I really have no idea how best to attack this...my phone is bricked I can get into TWRP 3.0.2.0 recovery, sideload, and fastboot (i think). I am currently downloading the stock ROM for my device and will try to sideload it.
I feel I need to fix the data issues thought before trying to load the ROM as I dont think my data partition is working at all now. Does anyone have any suggestions or a step-by-step guide on how to fix my bricked phone?
I've tried all sort of things today but no matter what, I cant get a keyboard working so I guess that means I'm screwed....
EDIT - my phone doesnt have a insertable SD card so I cant fix things the way the above poster suggests.

This is truly one of the worse phones I have ever had when it comes to root and such. My frustration over what, for a unbranded unlocked phone that *should* probably SHIP with root, this phone has and is putting me through is super high.
That being said...so I flashed the new 3.1.0.0 recovery. Before doing that, I had just tried to Unbrick the phone with flashing B162 image with 3.0.3.0...so now the phone is totally frozen in the "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted..." screen. Nothing I seem to do can get it out of this mode.
I want to install the rooted b378 boot.img file I just downloaded, but am unable to find the button commands to get the bootloader loaded. Does anyone have any suggestions in somehow trying to save the day with this damned phone?
much thanks in advance.
EDIT: So I got the phone in bootloader mode by pressing vol up/vol down/power and inserting the usb cable...i flashed the rooted boot.img and twrp 3.1.0.1 to both recovery and recovery2 and now i can get into recovery. I feel like I may actually have a chance now to fix this damn thing...
So can anyone point me in a direction where, from this point with the new recovery loaded and the modded boot image installed, where i can get this phone working?? ill use ANY ROM it dont really matter at this point...
Don't worry. It's really easy, once you know what to do, just realy easy to screw up if you don't. If your phone is a mess just roll back to android 6 using the procedure i described above. Once your phone works, update to nougat and install twrp and root following this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/development/twrp-t3566563

I pretty much have the same issue. No keyboard showing, just the stupid voice thing, and the Bootloader is Relocked. How did you get it fully unlocked. I can't get it. I guess let me get that resolved first (the bootloader) and I can try to go from there. Please help me.
UPDATE: Never mind I fixed it. I'm not really for sure how either but I think it mainly was just persistence.
Didn't work
Hello, so earlier today I tried to install RROS newest version in hope to get magisk/unrooting my phone because I'm addicted to snapchat and I rooted my phone with SuperSU earlier but didn't know u can't login to snapchat after that. It failed idk why, (I followed instructions very clearly and searched info from internet before doing that) causing me to brick my phone so when I booted it, it only showed black screen. After couple hours not finding way to get into twrp with my circumstances I managed to flash boot, recovery and system images, I tried to reboot and see what happens, (just in case, I kinda knew I didn't had ROM installed at the time, I also was hoping RROS to boot) nothing happened expect my phone got stuck in boot screen for booting EMUI, which was not installed obviously. Again after couple hours I stumbled to your post and managed to finally get myself into TWRP, I followed again ur instructions and everything was going fine, no erros, not anything. When Gapps was finished installing, I rebooted and again it just got stuck into booting screen. I did press and hold Power button, vol+, vol- and got myself into some kind of ROM installing screen, (hard to explain I don't exactly know what is name of it) and no it wasn't Huawei erecovery screen (Power button & Vol+ and no it didn't work me either saying that "getting package info failed") so in that ROM installing screen it just was stuck at 5% installing, and now I don't know what to do. My phone got locked again and I'm stuck at booting screen.
Note:
I don't have SD Card, should I get one and install stock rom?
Sorry for being kinda unclear but I'm tired it was 7 hours ago I got my phone bricked and have surfed on the web finding for answers ever since.
Also as you might notice, yes, I'm new to modding devices etc but still I'm not totally noob. Please help ASAP.
[SOLVED] So after hour of watching netflix as depressed teen I tried to reboot my phone again just in case, got stuck in booting screen. Then I held Power Button + Vol+ and got myself into EMUI stock recovery mode, I chose wipe cache partition and wipe data/factory reset, after that I rebooted my phone, it was stuck in booting screen for like 2 minutes but then it actually finished booting and now my phone is again functioning and god bless locked & unrooted.
I would like to clarify some things first.
I know I fuked up big time, I did things I didnt know how to do, flashed shlt from strange links and the like, I completely assume the responsibility, I fuked up big time and its my fault. Im a stubborn mf and decided to take care of my device without much knowledge.
I apologize beforehand if the answer to this is already somewhere, but i am so so tired im writing this thread and going to sleep, hoping to find an answer tomorrow or at least discuss with you people a solution to the situation I created.
In the span of 24 hours I completely messed up my phone. Its a honor6x, bll-l22 model. It had huawei Nougat on it which i installed months ago, working and smooth. I wanted to upgrade to Android Pie or Oreo at least, and messed it up. I would try to recall and tell you what happened first but I swear i downloaded so many files and roms i cant order it in my head.
I flashed twrp with fastboot, and from twrp i flashed one of those roms. Phone died probably because of incompatible OS. I tried fixing it with DC phonenix but to no avail, phone stil bricked.
Its on a bootloop, huawei logo keeps appearing and dissapearing again and again. When i hold vol up + power it goes to a blank rescue mode screen, please update system again, and also says failed to load recovery. vol up vol down and power doesnt take me to upgrade mode anymore (which is why i cant finish the flashing with dc phoenix, since it asks for you to put your huawei in upgrade mode to finish the firmware install) and the only accessible mode is fastboot (vol down + power) which gives me certain hope to save my device from a hard brick.
i tried flashing a stock marshmallow firmware for my phone model (the extracted .img files of recovery, boot, cust, and system) through fastboot but it says that remote command is not allowed. the only thing i can flash is recovery, so i installed the stock one to see if i get any options to wip/restore/update from sd card/anything but it all failed. i got the twrp for honor6x (berlin) and after flashing and booting directly to recovery, it fails and boots into stock recovery/fails to load recovery and shows the rescue mode i talked to you about in the beginning.
i just tried flashing stock recovery, it says flash okay and when i boot into it, it takes me to rescue mode now, doesnt even boot the stock recovery anymore.
i just checked and its in a loop between rescue mode and boot logo, one comes after the other endlessly.
ive been all day searching for a fix, ive spent 18 hours in front of the pc with breaks for taking a shlt, pissing or eating something, which for me is a lot, im not used to it. so im gonna post this here and sleep a lot and come back tomorrow, i cant stand this screen for one more seconds my eyes are burning.
thank you in advance, i appreciate any help :good:
Can you try reflashing TWRP? Or boot into TWRP? Also, what is the phone status in the bootloader screen. Does it say locked or unlocked? Assuming you can flash and boot into TWRP I would say go to wipe -> format data and then advanced wipe -> mark everything except sd card and wipe it. If not then I recommend dirty flash of your ROM you were using before boot loop i.e latest version of Android 7 for your model through hurupdater. You can find more info about it by searching for it. If the flash is successful boot into the ROM. I think your problem is mostly die to corrupt partitions and hurupdater should fix that. Also download the firmware files from Firmware Finder and rename them accordingly. If you are able to boot into the ROM, then reflashing TWRP and then wipe everything again (except SD Card) and then reflashing the same ROM using hurupdater again. This will remove the dirty flash.
Another alternative u could try is HWOTA 7. It will also upgrade you to Android 8 if you provide the correct files. Just search HWOTA 7 for Honor 6x. And follow the steps. Hope this helps your case

Hey man! Thanks for your long answer, just got up with a fresh head and stronger hopes so I will keep trying it all. I couldnt boot into twrp dik why. I flash it succesfully with fastboot but after that it boots me into recovery/fails and blank rescue mode screen. I by some miracle button combination achieved to boot straight into twrp right after flashing, so I will try that.
Bootloader is unlocked (phone unlocked) and FRP says "unlock". idk if that is a statement or a command to do it actually haha.
As soon as I boot into twrp, ill wipe it all and follow your instructions
Ill try to use twrp first, then hurupdater and then hwota7.
What do you mean by renaming the firmware accordingly? How can I do that? Isnt that iirelevant since inside the firmware files it still says some things that do not match the title i renamed?
oh, forgot something. fastboot commands are limited. i can flash a recovery.img but not a boot.img or use certain commands. remote command not allowed.

oh, forgot something. fastboot commands are limited. i can flash a recovery.img but not a boot.img or use certain commands. remote command not allowed.

Renaming them means that when you download them from Firmware Finder they will be named different. You just rename them normally. The linked threads will provide you detailed info. Just rename them accordingly and you are good to go. Good Luck.
BTW don't be so hard on yourself. We all make mistakes. Just because you flashed something incompatible doesn't mean you deserve hate. You are a noob. The first time I bricked my phone was when I flashed a zip that was supposed to redesign the settings menu of Android 7 to resemble Android 8. LoL. So don't be hard on yourself. If the phone boots it can be saved.
The combination is power and volume +. Also don't try everything. If the wipes are successful, then just flash hurupdater and you are good to go. If they are unsuccessful then format data first and try again. Format data option is in the same menu

Haha of course i dont deserve hate, but i was really stubborn, thats it.
Yeah, cant boot into any recovery at all, so hurupdate is impossible.
Also, Im getting lost on all the hwota threads, unfamiliar concepts and stuff i miss so i will posibly do something wrong.
Could you reply with noob-friendly steps on how to install oreo on my device? And if thats not possible ill be satisfied with nougat or even marshmallow, as long as phone works :/. Of course i prefer oreo if possible.
No recovery, when i flash one (stock or twrp) through fastboot, it flashes succesfully but phone doesnt boot into it (yes with vol+ and power), it just goes straight to rescue mode blank screen. Upgrade mode is failing too. Only fastboot works.

So you can't enter TWRP? I would recommend that later you flash TWRP through fastboot instead of rebooting press and hold volume up & power button on the bootloader screen. If that doesn't work try flashing TWRP with the following command:
"Fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk (nameofrecovery.img)" . Also HWOTA 7 requires TWRP to be functional. If by any chance you can enter TWRP then make the wipes. Don't wait for anything. Have the Hurupdater files in a SD card along with the firmware.
See myself in the story too LOL. Still can not remember how I got out.....
Try to flash twrp
then run: adb reboot recovery
To fash recovery run:
in Nougat: fastboot flash recovery xxxtwrp.img
in Oreo: fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk xxx.twrp.img
Maybe run both and see what u get.
