Screwed up oeminfo, now have a brick - Honor 6X Questions & Answers

I was trying to flash an oeminfo file from a C432 on to my bln-l24 after flashing Elite 5.1. I mistakenly thought I could rename oeminfo to oeminfo.img and flash with twrp. Well, I did that, and now I have a brick. At first, all I could get to was erecovery, which would fail when I let it do its thing. I've tried to flash B360 back on it using the 3 finger method with no luck. I flashed to MM rollback package, which was successful but still would only boot to erecovery. I flashed the full MM package, which again was successful. However, not it just hangs on the blue honor screen after the boot animation. I can't do anything in fastboot without getting a Command Not Allowed message since I am FRP locked. Any ideas? Hopefully I'm not SOL....Thanks.

Flash boot.img
It's very simple, flash the boot.img of MM or Nougat if that is the one you successfully flashed. It should work. Don't freak out.

I can't. Everytime I try to flash something in fastboot, it says command not allowed

Download Huawei Multi Tools by Team MT
Download the above and use it to unbrick your phone ?

Just start your device in bootloader and run "fastboot oem unlock XXXXXXXXXX" with our unlocking code again.
Even if it states to be unlocked on the screen already.
Good luck!

Tried it, I get Command Not Allowed error message. I think the problem is I'm FRP locked as well, which interferes with a lot of fastboot commands. Thanks for the assistance though.

as you have flashed the OEMINFO of C432, you need to flash the update.app files for BLN-L21C432, available here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-6x/how-to/guide-successful-debranding-to-bln-t3701050
by any chance you are able to access TWRP now?
if the 1st method doesnt work then refer this https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-6x/how-to/guide-unbrick-bln-l24-rollback-to-b310-t3695154
if not, then on DC Phoenix is your option. you can more info in multi tool thread under Honor 7 section.

Downgrade

So I updated my FRD-L04 to the Nougat Beta, and while I was following the instructions and Flashesd the Update. For some reason I lost TWRP and cant boot into recovery, my bootloader is unlocked.....however in developer options OEM Unlock is grey out and i cant enable it.... So when ever i try to run a command through fastboot it says is not allow.... and when i try ti re-lock the bootloader i get FAILED (remote: root type is risk)... I try to roll back package from Huawei website but that also fails..... Now i dont know what to do.
I am in the same boat. Did the new beta via twrp. My usb debug was greyed out but i was able to to get it to turn on for short moments.
I have now lost twrp and now the phone wont even boot the the Android 7 beta os!
I have fastboot but when i try to fastboot flash system or cust they both fail. My bootloader is still unlocked tho.
edit: I downloaded the beta flashable zip and the update that is seperate. I took out the boot recovery cust and system from them and was able to flash them via fastboot. The phone now boots back to the android 7.0 beta. Phew!!!!!
Now to attempt downgrade to 6.0 adn get twrp back
You should look for a downgrade package
Since you have lost TWRP, I think you will have to reinstall it and root your device again.

Like I mention on my initial post I have already tried the downgrade package..but it does not work. I can't enable oem unlock since is grayed out ... my boot loader is unlock and I can't use the phone but NFC Bluetooth etc does not work.. I even tried to flash the downgrade package recovery and boot image through fast boot but it's not allow since I can't enable oem unlock...
I'll research a bit and see If I can find something

FRP Locked and Bootloader Locked, cannot boot into system

I tried to use this tool https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-mate-9-flash-update-package-t3593108 to rebrand my mate 9 and I was able to unlock my bootloader before I started this tool and no problems there. Next I open the tool and went in and followed all the steps without problems all the way down past rebranding and to the step where I have to unlock my bootloader again. This time, FRP engaged and doesn't let me go past - I am stuck: i cannot reboot into the system to change any settings. At this point I tried a variety of methods, erecovery and funky huawei, they both end up saying getting package info failed. Now I am stuck. I cannot boot into the OS, it just kicks me straight into erecovery and erecovery isn't doing much recovery at all. Any help is greatly appreciated.

you need to relock bootloader, after it phone is resetting. then you need to unlock it, install TWRP , then you need to reflash a COMPLETE backup from MHA-AL00C00 or MHA-L29C626. Then restore to this. This is the only working solution. maybe i will create a backup from AL00

the bootloader is locked, or so says the fastboot screen along with FRP which is why i cannot unlock the bootloader to install TWRP...

FRP locked,Phone locked after flashing OREO in twrp and formatted data partiton

Hey XDA folks, today I've flashed oreo in l09c10b521 using TWRP and HuRupdater. In this process I've flashed HuRupdate.zip then all three files got flashed, unfortunately I formated data partition and rebooted. After reboot, phone didn't booted until I perform factory reset in stock recovery. Finally phone booted up but no Setup Wizard, no Gapps, only filemanger and some emui apps.
In Dev options OEM unlock option is faded/greyed out. Unable to flash anything in ADB
>> Is there any way so that I can go back to Nougat and use Gapps <<
If its not possible then how can I install Gapps?

Similar here with some differences. FRP-Locked, Phone unlocked, TWRP previously installed. I Can't install stock recovery because FRP locked. No Gapps, no keyboard, just some Huawei apps. OEM Unlock is grey, but bootloader unlocked.
The same happened to me, this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/development/firmware-huawei-honor-8-frd-l09-stock-t3696921 helped to rollback and everything works fine .

First you have to dload the main firmware file, then the renamed vendor.

When you try this method, the bootloader and phone (FRP) in locked state? Or Bootloader unlocked?
My phone is just booting just to Stock recovery, eRecovery or fastboot, but the "OS" won't boot. If I restart, or power on my phone just boot to eRecevery. Now in the fastboot mode the bootloader and FRP in locked state.
All software install failed.
No luck over 5-6 hours. All firmwares I want to flash ended "Software installation failed". In FF I find a B407 rollback package from Oreo, but its still not approved yet
same here, does anyone know how to fix it?

Same? Won't booting and just recovery, erecovery or fastboot come up, frp and bootloader locked? Oh, and no luck for flashing any firmware?

actually it boots, but i have an emui without google apps, and a greyed oem unlocking option, so i can't unlock
i ve same issue, frp and bootloader locked. all firmware stop at 5% no gapps and greyed oem setting (c10b521)
I do not know how to find the "magic" firmware that does not fail...
should you understand based on which criterion is installed the firmware, recovery version? version of the system? I have no idea
For locked FRP, you can relock the bootloader and after that unlock again. It unlocks the FRP again. Just write "relock" instead of "unlock".
And about the "not approved" packages, seems that Hurupdater doesn't care, it just installs.
But for some magic firmware, just download some way older firmware for dload installation. For me that always works on my L09C432, is 360.

Ok. Just one problem occured for Me: I do a bootloader relock, and this ended a not bootable OS, Relocked Bootloader and locked FRP. Just boot to eRecovery.

Just one problem with this: 360 is not a rollback package, so if you want to refresh (back) to this, just show You an "Installation Failed" message, and nothing more. So 360 just works if you want to refresh from a lower Nougat or MarsMallow build, or "rollback" from a higher build Nougat firmware.

You relocked, then unlocked, and it didn't unlock? Strange. I know atleast that the same unlock/relock commands work with nougat and oreo. I've done it a few times.
360 is a full package(FULLOTA-MF-PV) for my model. Other models have different package numbers.
You need to have a full package. Make a folder "dload" on root of an SD-card, with "update.app"-file in it. I have also the "meta-inf" and "full_mainpkg.tag" there, but i don't know if they are really needed. Then just boot the phone with power+volup+voldown and it should install.
No. I relocked the bootloader, but after that and the "automatic" factory reset the phone not boot to the os, just to the erecovery. So i can not change the "OEM unlock" option to unlock again the bootloader.
The install. I'l know the install method, but not work. Any package what 8 want to install ended (after 5%) a "software install failed". Ok. The 360 PV package is a good one, but this package not work, if you want to roll back from a higher master version, like oreo. This package just work if you in nougat, or MM.

Yes, but it s needed flash recovery patched first...
As long as it boots, yes you can repair. You must ask someone with frp UNLOCK to back up partition 'FRP'. Then they send this partition and you flash it (requires root) and now FRP is good in bootloader.

Question Allow oem unlocking option missing in developer options

So, i recently flashed arrow os 12.1 on my poco x4 pro (veux) using twrp. Flashing the rom removed twrp and now i cant flash it back because fastboot says that my bootloader is locked...
Of course, it isn't and the problem is that allow oem unlocking isn't on... I really would appreciate some help because i've been stuck on this rom for a day.
Gonna wait for some answers, thank you.
In the first place, flashing the rom shouldn't relock your bootloader. Can you please reboot to fastboot mode and use mi unlock tool with the same account you used to unlock bootloader first time.

Thank you for your response. Sadly i already tried that and the tool says that the phone is unlocked.

By the way, when using fastboot getvar command, it says that my bootloader is locked.
So, i recently bought a poco x4 pro (veux) and flashed a custom rom using twrp. Sadly, the rom's recovery managed to overwrite twrp and when i tried to flash twrp back, i could not flash it because fastboot said my bootloader wasn't unlocked. When i tried to unlock the phone again the xiaomi tool said that the bootloader was already unlocked. So, i used the getvar command which said that my bootloader was locked.

Go to service centre if it is critical. I have never seen such case so i couldn't help. I am afraid that you would have to pay the service centre people money for reflashing your device.
Also have you tried flashing fastboot ROM (MIUI) through fastboot? Also try to flash stock recovery rom via the recovery you have now currently.
Another thing you could try is using the Xiaomi official flashing utility (which is not unlock tool) to flash stock rom which does not require OEM unlock.
