Hi,
I have my Honor 6 (indian version) rooted on EMUI 2.3. Thought of upgrading to lollipop today.
Mistake: Did a factory reset on the rooted phone.
Then downloaded EMUI 2.3 stock image from here hihonor.in/support/downloads
After flashing this image the software version was b115. Then downloaded EMUI 3.0 from the same site and tried a local update.
Now, the phone does not update, it restarts and shows version as EMUI 2.3. I am unable to access stock recovery. My bootloader is unlocked and can fastboot and flash stock recovery image (extracted from b115 rom). The flashing shows a success but still cannot access stock recovery.
One more strange thing, after all this if I try to do a factory reset from the "Backup and reset" menu, it does not reset the phone. The phone restarts and boots back into EMUI 2.3 with nothing reset.
Please help/suggest what should I do
Flashed “BETA-SuperSU-v2.66-20160103015024.zip”. System now stuck on "Warning Bootloader unlocked" screen. I can get to Android recovery. I did wipe cache but same condition exists. Is it safe to do a factory reset at this point?
Although I recovered by restoring a Nandroid backup, I am still curious if selecting factory reset from stock recovery would have worked, or is this not an advisable method for soft brick recovery?

Maybe I did not use the best words to ask my question. Can you recover from a system stuck on "Warning Bootloader unlocked" screen by simply doing a factory reset?
Did the same thing

I did the same thing could someone help me? I updated to 6.0 a couple days ago (I just got the phone) and decided to unlock the bootloader. Everything worked fine. I have minimal ADB and fastboot set up and all the drivers are set up properly too.
I then decided to flash TWRP. I didn't check "Read Only". Everything seemed fine. I swiped to reboot and was told to install supersu so I did and then rebooted.
Now I can't get past the white "Warning Bootloader Unlocked" screen. I can access the bootloader and TWRP, I'm just not sure what exactly to do next.
I have a Moto G 2015 2GB on T-Mobile USA

You should not have installed supersu. Not sure why that option exists.

Did you make a Nandroid backup before flashing SuperSU? If so, restore your backup and start again.

I do not have a back-up :/ Is it still safe to flash the 5.1.1 stock firmware if I was already on 6.0 via OTA? I tried a factory reset in TWRP, but that did't work.

If you are going to reflash, why not 6.0 firmware?
Is flashing my only option since I have no back-up?

I haven't been able to find the 6.0 stock firmware for it. only 5.1.1
If all I have to do is flash 6.0 stock firmware and my phone is fixed could I do it in TWRP? Like, just drag the firmware into my phone's download folder and just install in TWRP?

Yes you can.
Edit - My phone was also stuck at this screen only - "Warning Bootloader unlocked"
I also soft bricked my phone 3-4 days ago but got it back.
Follow below steps and you are good to go -
1. Download and install Motorola Moto Drivers
2. download stock firmware from http://forum.xda-developers.com/2015...mages-t3169639 for your Moto G3 model (in my case it was XT1550)
3. download TWRP from http://forum.xda-developers.com/devd...1051#downloads [ i used twrp-osprey-2.8.7-r5.img version ]
4. download SuperSU from http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...25&postcount=3 [make sure you download BETA-SuperSU-v2.62-3-20151211162651.zip version only else you'll again brick your phone]
Now as you have all required things to get your phone back, now follow below steps -
Now flash stock ROM, Instruction here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/2015...ctory-t3187750
Now flash TWRP - fastboot flash recovery your_recovery_name_here.img
now start your phone (takes 15 minutes around)
now go to recovery and flash BETA-SuperSU-v2.62-3-20151211162651.zip and start your phone [ do not allow TWRP to root your phone when it asks you to root your phone just tap not now (or whatever i don't remember right now)]
Starting up phone now takes 25-30 minutes approx.
Rooted
[Don't brick and blame me , do it at your own risk ]
The point where things went wrong was that last screen where TWRP asks you if you want to root the phone - NEVER let it do that, ever, even after you properly root it the right way (which is manually flashing that specific version of SuperSU or a later version).
I've had instances where on a random reboot into TWRP - on a properly rooted Moto G3 - where that question screen comes up. It should not come up when the phone is actually rooted but I've seen it once or twice. Again, the point is: NEVER EVER let TWRP do it's own internal rooting process because that's what breaks things on the Moto G3.
- flash stock firmware complete
- go back and flash TWRP
- use TWRP to manually flash the SuperSU version (at least 2.62 beta which is what the Moto G3 running Marshmallow requires)
- make sure after that flash of SuperSU you do NOT use the TWRP option to root the device when you close out TWRP, ever
- flash a replacement logo so you don't see the bootloader is locked splash screen
That's about it.
I just unlocked BL. How long does it take to restart the phone from ADB recovery screen? Seems like forever.

It is basically a factory reset. Not sure you need adb at this point.

Hi,
i encountered almost the same problem tryng to install twrp, so, when i try to come back to stock and relock the boot loader, i went to bootloop for some times. What i did:
donwload official stock b389, extract it, and flash manually (fastboot flash cust cust.img; recovery; boot; system)
failed, i got bootloop.
hardreset, not sure if it was acessible and i did it for sure...
download from official honor/hawei site, the 2 package to rollback from nougat to marshmallow.
installed the, again don't remember if it worked in dload like the official site teach you or if i did it manually (extraction, fastboot flash ecc ecc)
so, flash the mid packcage (from nougat to marshmallow) then flash the marshmallow firmware.
now, try to reset, and again, try to flash a stock marskmallow firmware.
the problems i encountered was (i suppose) it fail to manually flash a marshmallow firmware on a nougat bootloader, so, with the rollback package i was able to have a marshmallow bootloader where flash the stock firmware.
it took me time, sweat, and fear, but at the end it worked. It's easyer when you decide "i blowed it up, whatever it happens, i don't care..."
I have European honor8 32gb b389
i install lineage os 7.1.2 but dont like it and wont do restore backup with twrp, but after restore the phone blocked on honor screen.
i tried everything, and now i have a lot of confusion, i tried dload, but nothing happened when i turn on with +-power. I try with huawai extractor to flash boot system cust and recovery but nothing device go in bootloop. if i flash recovery from b131 firmware i can go in dload but freeze at 5%
what i can do? sorry for my English, i speak Italian and Russian if somebody want to help me in pm.

Are you sure you're using the rollback package before? You can download it from honor official website, then you move the firmware file in a dload folder on your sdcard. Boot up using both + and - buttons and the power button in the same time and the phone will force the flashing of the rollback ( package needed to go back from android 7 to android 6) file. Then you have to download the android 6 firmware for your device from the honor official website again and flash it with the same process of the rollback package. If you can't undestand i can try to explain it in italian

Just flash the stock recovery there in fastboot. And reboot. Shutdown the phone and use dload method
Basically you missed one thing before restoring stock backup. You should have performed a full factory reset using the second recovery and then restored your TWRP backup.
Your device being stuck on Honor screen is because you forgot to enable encryption (that is done by performing a factory wipe through second recovery).

Follow my guide here https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/guide-flashing-unapproved-firmwares-t3668306
Before you do it, flash stock Nougat recovery (if you were on EMUI 5) and perform a factory reset. Then flash TWRP again through Fastboot.
Use the TWRP method since you are unable to boot to EMUI. Chose any firmware you want, whether it be Marshmallow or Nougat.

Are you following the steps exactly as mentioned?
You need to flash TWRP first then setup your device to install the firmware. Read the TWRP section again and follow it exactly as mentioned.
Nothing to worry about that Fastboot status. It is normal.

Damn. I forgot you could simply flash files from Fastboot.
In the future only flash system, cust, vendor, boot and recovery. Do not attempt to flash any other file.
Still, if you want to update to the latest OTA, my guide is always there to help you out.

Hello Friends,
i need help after bricked my Honor 6x. I can not flash TWRP recovery anymore. The smartphone was on EMUI 8 (India version). Now I can only go into the StockRecovery or the eRecovery. Attached is a picture of the information from the smartphone. I urgently need help.
Thank you
Can you enter fastboot? Try dload method. It works. What were you doing that caused the brick

I tested dload- methode but after 5% it failed. I don't know which Firmware i must use. For the BLN-L21 no Oreo oder Pie available. I have India Version of Oreo on my phone, then i installed Elemental Rom V2 from this forum.
What exactly did you do? To cause this brick. After flashing Elemental and Data did you run kernel? Unzip the small archive UpdateKernal and run update.bat Where did you go wrong?

I have the same problem: Honor 6x bricked and dload metod doesnt work. PHONE and FRP are locked I need help
I don't know exactly why it was. I first used the Huawei Multi Tool to see what it showed me. There he showed it to me with firmware version "System 8.0.0.046(0EFK)". After that I connected to the internet via a friend's hotspot and tried to recover everything via eRecovery, but it didn't work. Then I switched off the phone, flashed the StockRecovery again via Fastboot, set it to factory settings and rebooted it. Then again into eRecovery and there to Shutdown. Then I installed the twrp-recovery, Wipe -> Format Data (yes), Reboot to Recovery, Wipe -> Data/Cache, Dalvik Cache and then the EMUI 8 from the India version was installed again via the HuRupdater. Now I have RROS from OpenKirin on it. Everything at your own risk. All data without guarantee. I am not responsible for errors or damages on your devices.
