Bricked. AudioFX Force Closes

I bought this today and all I know is it's a 64gb One Plus and it was force closing every 2 seconds and basically not usable. After some searching I downloaded the One Plus toolkit and flashed it back to CM11s. It boots back up but I get the AudioFx has stopped every second. Some people have said you need to flash the sound zip and it will fix it. Well, I tried 2 different ones, med and high and still I get the force closing.
Then I found stock fastboot files and tried to bring it back to stock that way but I keep getting this when it gets to system:
checking product... OKAY [ 0.002s]
sending 'boot' (5606 KB)... OKAY [ 0.423s]
writing 'boot'... OKAY [ 0.091s]
ding 'recovery' (7458 KB)... OKAY [ 0.548s]
writing 'recovery'... OKAY [ 0.115s]
ding 'system' (774864 KB)... FAILED (remote: data too large)
I;ve tried this with multiple files and still get the same thing. I even restarted the computer a, updated the SDK and still can't do jack. I used the tool to flash back to CM11s, installed Twrp and tried to install a bone stock OTA rom by Caulkulin. I get failed to mount errors in recovery.
I'm stumped with this phone and need some help
thanks
edit: I know its not technically bricked, but its inoperable as a brick entails. I managed to flash all kinds of stock software, system images, etc but AudioFX still comes up.
Edit 2: I decided to flash a rom without audio fx, I choose Slim Kat, and it boots without the AudioFX but now it boots but after a few seconds will reboot. Over and over. Is this ONE Plus defective?

I have a cell phone store, guy came in to sell it, says he rooted it but couldn't get it to stop force closing.
Edit:

You can try format data from twrp this will do a clean install of OS but it will wipe whatever you have in you phone..but not the OS..This is different from data wipe..cache wipe..etc..It will prompt you to say yes or no if you want to wipe..

You can do that from fastboot with: fastboot format data ; but as stated, it WILL wipe everything on your device; copy your precious files to your pc.

I've already done a clean install from twrp, wipe data, system, cache, dalvik. Shouldn't that be clean enough? Why does the audiofx keep popping up?

same thing. See first post.
I've tried slim kat and PA and both can boot up fine without an FC but after a few seconds they immediately reboot, over and over

Bricked my Honor 6 H60-L04 Indian variant while trying to install .zip files.

I recently upgraded my phone to EMUI 2.3 to EMUI 3.1 (Android lollipop 5.1), and installed CWM and rooted it. Two days ago I have downloaded cerebus app from Rom manager app and it installed by rebooting into recovery. Then a couple of minutes after rebooting the phone keep on crashing and shutting down randomly and when I tried to reboot it won't reboot but stuck for sometime at the Honor logo and since then I've tried every possible flashing and resetting I found here on XDA.
I still have access to fastboot and that is how I am able to flash ROM s and when I am trying to use the three button method it is stopping at 90 %. I couldn't even access it if my phone is not connected to my PC.
Now I've exhausted all the procedures in here and some other sites.
Somebody please suggest me something, help me.
Thank you.

Follow these steps to get it back to stock:
Download your phone's latest firmware and extract system.img, boot.img, recovery.img, cust.img from UPDATE.APP using Huawei Update Extractor tool.
Boot into bootloader mode by switching off the phone then pressing only the Vol DOWN button, and connecting it to PC simultaneously.
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.
NOTE: If the manual flashing doesn't works or you get any errors, then first try only the force update method, i.e Putting the UPDATE.APP from which you extracted the files in dload folder of your external SDCARD and pressing Vol UP + Vol DOWN + Power button simultaneously after switching off your phone.

Thanks Brother.

I have the same problem with a H60-L12.
I noticed, that I get that error when I try to flash a boot.img from a different EMUI version pack.
In my case, the phone had EMUI3.0 and I can write any of the EMUI3.0 boot.img's, but cannot write a boot.img from an EMUI 3.1 or EMUI4.0 update.app

Thnks you for replying so quickly.
I'm using "Honor 6_Firmware_H60-L04_Android 6.0_EMUI 4.0_C675B822_India_Flipkart India"
which is the latest stock firmware for Honor 6 H60-L04.
I have tried to force update with the thee button method and it worked (completed 100%)but unfortunately the phone is now in bootloop. This definitely made the phone a little better but once it got to the EMUI update screen its restarting again.
Thanks again man I though nobody would reply for this. its been so long since ive posted this.

When you flashed manually, did you used the same IMG files from the last installed ROM?
You can´t extract and flash IMG files of a LP ROM in a last installed MM ROM and vice versa.

Root: Stuck at "Your device is booting now"

Hello! I tried to root my Honor 6x (BLN-L21, EMUI 5.0) following the instructions there:
cyberkey.in/how-to-root-honor-6x-100-working/
The bootloader was successfully unlocked.
But when I tried to flash TWRP the process failed and now my phone is stuck on boot :
"Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted [...] Your device is booting now."
I can get access to recovery and fastboot. I wiped the cache and tried a factory reset but nothing changed, my system won't start and I don't know what to do.
Please help!

if you have the boot backup then restore it.

I think that I flashed the wrong files in "boot" and "recovery". Please tell me which files I should flash there.
I used the commands:
.\fastboot flash boot twrp.img
.\fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

The guide from "cyberkey.in/how-to-root-honor-6x-100-working/" is simply wrong when it comes to flashing the twrp recovery. If you really followed this guide completely then you flashed the recovery to the boot partition.
Use "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" to flash the recovery.
You will still have to flash the boot image to your boot partition then (fastboot flash boot boot.img).

Use fastboot flash recovery twrpname.img to flash the recovery

Ok so basically I need to flash the boot image. However I don't know where to find the stock boot image. I downloaded the so-called "full version" of the stock firmware that I found here: boycracked.com/2017/07/20/official-huawei-honor-6x-bln-l21-berlin-l21-stock-rom-firmware/
However there was no boot.img file inside.
If you could direct me to the proper stock boot.img or send me one, that would greatly help. I had EMUI 5.0 with Nougat 7.0 I believe, phone version BLN-L21.

Thanks. I successfully updated boot.img and and recovery.img, but system won't load, so I might have imported from the wrong STOCK version.
I tried to reinstall a stock ROM using:
fastboot flash system system.img
But I got this error message:

Then I tried to erase the system file with "erase system" and got this error:

I guess that the only option now is to install the files on an external SD card?

Thanks. I successfully updated boot.img and and recovery.img, but system won't load, so I might have imported from the wrong STOCK version.
I tried to reinstall a stock ROM using:
fastboot flash system system.img
But I got this error message:
target reported max download size of 471859200 bytes
sending sparse 'system' (444686 KB)...
OKAY [ 12.901s]
writing 'system'...
FAILED (remote: sparse flash write failure)

Then I tried to erase the system file with "erase system" and got this error:

FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.013s
I guess that the only option now is to install the files on an external SD card?

I recommend you to download firmware files only from the official honor website or by using the huawei firmware finder(https://forum.xda-developers.com/tools/general/huawei-firmware-finder-team-mt-t3469146)
In this case try to use huawei firmware finder to get the right stock version for your phone. Download these two files: e.g. update.zip & update_full_BLN-L21_hw_eu.zip.
Export the following image files: recovery, system, boot and cust.
The try to flash them:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash cust cust.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
If flashing a partition via fastboot fails then it is usually because it's the wrong image or just not made for your phone.

Thank you guys, you saved my phone! I eventually managed to flash the files from Nougat update for European Honor 6X BLN-L21C432B360 that I found there: stechguide.com/honor-6x-b360-nougat-update/
Now the phone is working fine.

Hello! I tried to root my Honor 6x (BLN-L21, EMUI 5.0) following the instructions there:
cyberkey.in/how-to-root-honor-6x-100-working/
The bootloader was successfully unlocked.
But when I tried to flash TWRP the process failed and now my phone is stuck on boot :
"Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted [...] Your device is booting now."
I can get access to recovery and fastboot. I wiped the cache and tried a factory reset but nothing changed, my system won't start and I don't know what to do.
Please help!

Hello, could you be more specific about your problem? I'll be able to help you.
Brief Explanation:
From the screen on which you're stuck, press and hold power button for about 10 seconds to forcibly restart your device. when you see the same screen again, immediately press and hold volume up button(for about 3 seconds) to boot to eRecovery.
> Choose shut down option on eRecovery. press and hold vol down button and insert the charging cable to boot to fastboot.
> Press and hold power and volume up button to boot to recovery. (You could do this even from fastboot screen and the screen you're stuck at).

Help me unbrick my Honor 8

Well guys, I think I did it. I think I really did brick my Honor 8.
Phone details: New Honor 8, Model is FRD-AL10.
It came with the Chinese ROM, locked. What I did was to unlock it with DC unlocker, flash TWRP as custom recovery and root it.
Later, I had some problems with installing Open Gapps so I decided that I will flash a custom ROM unto it. What I chose was this RROS. I followed all of the instructions, made sure my EMUI was up to date, deleted all of my fingerprints (although I did not disable the PIN lock). I performed a factory reset using TWRP, flashed RROS and started facing errors.
Trying to power up the phone I found out it was going into bootloop, not able to start up. Only recovery available was not TWRP, but the default Huawei eRecovery, that lets you restore the phone using the Wi-Fi to download the needed files. Panicking for my new phone, I tried to restore my phone this way, only when it completed the download it failed restoring.
I have tried to unbrick my phone using the Honor 8 Multi-Tool: flashing BOOT.img, CUST.img, Recovery, USERDATA.img and SYSTEM.img. The firmware I downloaded and extracted UPDATE.app from is this: FRD-AL10_C00B135_Firmware_China_Nonspecific_Android 6.0_EMUI 4.1_05013LBP.zip.
The Multi-Tool's log is this:
Code:
12:51:55: All images are found, everything is ready for the unbricking process.
12:52:01: Unbricking started. Your computer may freezes during the process.

As you see, SYSTEM.img cannot be written for some reason, and CUST.img is for some reason the wrong file.
I also tried to flash UPDATE.app using a microSD card and the Volume up+Volume down+Power combination, but it fails after 5%, Saying:
Code:
Software install failed!
Incompatibility with current version.
Please download the correct update package.
So either my phone is completely dead, or I am missing something here.
Can anyone help me restore my phone to normal function?

you need to find the rollback package, you had android 7 but you're trying to flash android 6

how to revert back to non rooted

I traded my phone for this p20 and its rooted, unlocked and has TWRP and I would like to remove all of that and have it back to factory. I've searched but could not find a tutorial. Any help would be appreciated.

Do you have TWRP installed?

Yes. TWRP is installed

I have an OTA update showing on my phone. If I click install will it install stock recovery or will it brick my phone?

I dont think it will brick the phone, but I believe it just wont work. I did basically the same, but I cant remember how I got rid of twrp. I followed a guide (not on xda) very closely to not brick the phone (flashing something to get rid of it, then factory reset).
If you wanna relock your phone, I found the all-in-one-tool very helpful. Just doing oem relock like on the Nexuses doesn‘t work. The tool worked great for me, you still need the unlock code though.

it shouldn't that hard.
1. download full update zip file for your phone.
2. extract the zip, and extract the .APP file using HuaweiUpdateExtractor app.
3. get this file from extracted .APP file : ramdisk.img and recovery_ramdisk.img
4. boot into fastboot and do this :
fastboot flash ramdisk ramdisk.img
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdisk.img

Thanks. When I get home today I will try that

okay, first things first.
for HuaweiUpdateExtractor, go to settings, and disable every 'verify' settings, those you'll not receive that error message anymore.
next, for download link, here you are : http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G2639/g1604/v134418/f1/full/update.zip

thank you so much. You are a lifesaver, it worked Update through the phone failed but updating through HiSuite worked. Now to relock the bootloader do i Use the multi tool or adb?

i never relock the bootloader, but i think through adb is okay.
i think the command is :
fastboot oem relock yourcodehere
i must remind you that there's a risk of data lost, you make sure to backup first.
and please save bootloader code somewhere, because Huawei will close the service for releasing bootloader code, for the case maybe you want to sell the device and the buyer needs the code.

Ok thanks. I guess I will be keeping it unlocked. The guy I traded for this phone did not give me the unlock code

Worked for me on my EML-L09. Thanks.
