HELP! Softbrick after Factory Reset - Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers

Hello there!
I used to run a custom ROM on my Mate 9 with encryption deactivated.
My mistake:
-Factory reset from TWRP instead of from within the rom.
Now, I cant install any ROM, cant flash a new recovery, cant format, cant change file format. Always getting this "cant mount volume error".
When I try to flash a different rom, I get "error 7".
I'm lost, dont know what to do.
Can anybody help me out?
Best regards

Stuck in Recovery twrp (can't wipe or install ROM)

First things first, I'm a newbie when it comes to all these.
I installed CM11 after much effort, but some things didn't work out well so afterwards, I installed CM12.1* (FXP-cm-11-20150301-UNOFFICIAL-taoshan).* But then I decided that I wanted to change my Gapps Package, so I went to recovery mode once again to wipe my phone and install CM12 all over again.
The thing is that for some reason I just couldn't wipe it (no error message) but I was able to log in back to the system (CM12).
I messed around with a few settings and finally I decided to install twrp 2.8.7.0 through the flashify app. I rebooted to recovery, tried to wipe again my phone and then, all hell broke loose.
I realized that I cannot wipe internal memory of all things, and cannot install any new ROM. Can't flash another recovery either through windows flashtool like CWM 6.0 Philz touch, for example. Well, it does flash but my phone keeps on logging into the twrp recovery. I also can't flash my original fft (obviously). I can't do really anything besides messing around with twrp options (and I've messed a lot with them). I'm all out of ideas, so please someone help. When trying to wipe internal storage, the following message appears:
E:mkdosfs /dev/block/mmcblk0p32 process ended with ERROR=1
E:Unable to wipe '/sdcard'.
E:Unknown MTP message type: 1
E:Unable to wipe '/sdcard'
I have the whole log, for anyone interested.
Please help and remember, I'm a newbie.
Thank you.

Thank you for your answer my friend, but I actually managed to fix my problem just moments before you posted your answer! What I did was to flash the cm12.1 recovery nightly which logged me into this recovery (although it seemed all messed up and.. broken). Nevertheless, I managed to flash the CM12.1 ROM from there and everything worked fine!
Bro #immortalwind.. I'm having the same problem exactly what you had. Seriously fu***d up with all with boot loop @ recovery. Could not able to hard reset / factory reset at neither CWM nor TWRP. Tried all knows possible ways. Please could you help me here. Any1 who can halp me here pls...
P.S: literally not moving from the boot load, so flashing a ROM could not be possible i think. any other suggestions please.....

Just reflash stock ftf. You'll be good to go. If that fails, check drivers and downgrade flashtool. After that, normally, install a boot image with a recovery, install your rom gapps, reboot.
Managed to flash.ftf... Thanks for the help friends.

stuck on dead android no command. i cant access bootloader. no rom.

hi, im really frustrated with this problem. i've spent three days already to search for answers but to no avail. im really hoping someone can help here.:crying::crying::crying:
situation is: i tried to install custom rom and part of the step is to wipe cache, data, etc. now, im guessing im not supposed to inlcude wiping the internal storage (to which i did), now i can no longer boot the system as well as go to bootloader mode. i thought i bricked my device good thing i learned online on how to access stock recovery. i can see the recovery is android system recovery <3e> (KOT49H.24526_447.6867). the only options are: (1 ) reboot system
(2) apply update from ADB sideload
(3) apply update from SD card
(4) wipe data/factory reset
(5) wipe cache partition
my problem is when i try to flash stock ROM from nvidia via apply update from ADB sideload, on command prompt window, it just say cannot ready zip. now when i try to apply update from SD card, it get stuck on install/sdcard then after a while, it just go back to the dead android logo. i also tried ADB sideload trying to flash by images inside the zip. when i try to flash it, it loads and send successfully but on my tablet it says E: footer is wrong . E: signature verification failed. installation aborted. btw, i was not sure if my shield is US LTE or RoW so tried both but still same result. i hope someone can help pls. im so desperate to fix my tab. :crying:

2. Tried to install custom recovery TWRP.. failed to install, i tried different versions of TWRP specified for my phone , and also with different versions of odin.. still unable to install
3. Tried to flash official rom downloaded from sammobile, via odin, but this also failed.
4. tried to root by CF-Autoroot through odin. but failed again.
Note: My phone was on official ROM and recovery when it was bricked, and was never touched to root or flash anything into it before. and i never activated developer options in my phone and the USB debugging mode is also never activated.

Greetings and welcome to assist. It sounds like you need to flash a pit file. The easiest way to recover your device is use kies/smart switch emergency firmware recovery. Unfortunately this will wipe all your data but should fix the phone
Good Luck

Unable to Mount system, data, cache in Yuphoria

I am having a Yuphoria 5010 and when I flash TWRP via PC its started and even I can also able to flash Stock ROM in it. And all flashing successfully done but the device doesn't boot up it stuck on boot logo.
And if open TWRP and go to mount> "I am unable to select any of them". Also if I go to wipe> "unable to wipe anything", it says-
"unable to mount storage
unable to mount data
unable to mount cache
unable to mount system"
That cause I am unable to install any custom ROM by TWRP itself. So it may be a unique situation, I tried to format cache, data etc to all formats like ext4, ext2, f2fs, fat and It says-"DONE" but still problem remains.
And this all problem cause after somehow I get option called "ENCRYPTION or RESET" which automatic pop up on my device and I don't have any other option so I have to click on RESET and after that my device doesn't boot up, so after I try all method of Yuphoria's solution such as flashing custom ROM, stock ROM by PC, Installing TWRP and Wipe all of them and etc. But nothing works for me.
SO IF ANYONE IS THERE WHO KNOW HOW TO FIX IT, PLEASE HELP ME TO GET RID OUT OF THIS PROBLEM.
THANK YOU
Please anyone of developer reply to fix it. Thankyou
