Hi Guys,
So I got my Mate 9 (MHA-L29C636B110) today and i unlocked bootloader and rooted it so I can restore my backups using Titanium Backup.
After I flashed TWRP and rooted, the updater in settings shows new update available, so i tried to download the OTA (MHA-L29C636B136) and update it.
But it can't be updated maybe due to TWRP installed, so I tried the following:
1) Flash stock recovery through fastboot from B136 update.app (Failed to update as well)
2) Unroot with SuperSU (Failed as well)
3) Flash boot.img, recovery.img, system.img from B136 (Failed as well)
But now the phone reboots everytime I type my PIN to unlock phone. I still can drag notification bar, and access to torch light function on lockscreen etc.
I have full zip and OTA zip update.app extracted. But I'm not sure what is my next step.
Anyone able to advise how to revert back to B110 or update manually to B136?
Thanks in advance!!!
Flash the full zip in twrp,you will get some error but you should be ok

But I can't boot to TWRP even if fastboot shows it flashed successfully. Went to eRecovery all the time.
Also, I tried to flash the Full zip and OTA zip file with TWRP before I start trying to flash the img files seperately, they don't work...
To boot to twrp you have to hold vol up + power and release power when you see the logo while keeping volume up pressed.

OK I managed to boot to TWRP, which file should I flash now to manually update to B136?

Flashing stock B136 with FunkyHuawei might be your best bet. Assuming funkyhuawei stays alive, this phone is pretty much un-brickable.

I can only boot to TWRP for now, stuck in splash screen loop if boot normally, will funkyhuawei work?
You can find full firmware http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=mha
Once you flash the update.zip reboot to recovery and factory reset.

Yep. At the unlocked bootloader splash screen, hold the volume up button for 3 seconds to enter eRecovery. eRecovery downloads a stock build and flashes it automatically. Of course, you'll need to setup FunkyHuawei beforehand so that it'll download the version you want. (B136, etc)

OK I'm downloading it now. So I place the file in SD Card and flash using TWRP, then factory reset. Correct?
I am now having bootloops so I have to wipe system, data, cache, dalvik with TWRP before flash right?
No don't wipe everything,just flash the zip reboot to recovery and factory reset.

So I have to connect to the Wifi that has DNS modified right? Because I'm having 5% update error with eRecovery everytime...
I'll try gm007's method first, if fails I'll have to use FunkyHuawei....
Thanks a lot!!
Yep, set DNS on router then pick your version on the FunkyHuawei site. Sounds intimidating but it's really pretty simple.

Hello there, I've been trying to return to stock EMUI after messing around with some AOSP-based ROMs, but my US model Honor 6x is unable to boot up the TWRP backup of it. And the dload method is unsuccessful, as it just says the firmware is incompatible with my device. Does anyone know a way to return back to stock EMUI and make my device as it was coming out of the factory?

Hi, which is your model number...BLxLxxCxxx? Still you have access to twrp?

I believe it's the BLN-L24C567, since I have the US model of the Honor 6x.

I still have TWRP and the backup of my original software, but it won't boot up. It just goes into a boot loop. I don't know what proper steps to take in order to get the software to boot up again.

Ok, download this two zips and try flash via twrp. First small zip, right after big one. After go to reboot and make reboot recovery, now you will be in stock recovery and here tap factory reset, after normal reboot and should boot to rom

Thank you so much; I'll do it. However, should I do a factory reset or format data in TWRP before flashing these ZIPs?

The update.zip (the bigger one) ended with "ERROR: 7" I'm not sure if this should have happened or not. Any idea?
Rommco05 said:
Try format data after reboot twrp and again format data now try flash zips.
If this doesn't help, u need this one:
-download Huawei Extractor from xda
-unzip big zip and extract from update.app, recovery.img
-flash recovery.img over fastboot (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img)
-now make update over dload method
(unzip both files and separately put to dload folder on sdcard, first big second small, but must be unzipped)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Okay, one more question: For the dload method, do I have both ZIPs in the dload folder and flash it at the same time, or do I flash one ZIP at a time in the stock recovery?
Rommco05 said:
Yes u need install both zips, becasue big one is system and small are apps. Flash stock recovery and after install big one (unzipped) after reboot (if phone boot to rom immediately turn him off) and install second one, same like first

My phone is currently installing the first UPDATE.app. Once I go back into the recovery, will my phone know to install UPDATE.APP(1) (the smaller one)? Or will there be a way to select the file? How exactly does it work?

No you need deleted first one from dload and put in second one (small)

Sorry to keep asking questions, but how should I turn off the device once the first UPDATE.APP installs? It keeps trying to boot up.
Rommco05 said:
Leave him try boot to rom, should be boot in but rom will be incomplete and after turn him off

Thanks for those edits; I was a bit confused. Thank you for all your help; I'll update you if it works or not. Have a nice night.
I just wanted to leave a reply to let others know what I did:
1. Flashed stock recovery from the big update.zip file (I used the Huawei extractor to get it from the file)
2. Unzipped the big and little zip files
3. Made a folder called dload
4. Put the unzipped contents of the big zip in the dload folder
5. Held power and volume up + down buttons until it installed the big update file
6. I went into the recovery by holding volume up and power
7. I removed the SD card and deleted the contents of the big update and inserted the little update to the dload folder
8. I rebooted and used the same dload method to install the contents of the little update file
9. I went back into the recovery (power and volume up) and did a factory reset
10. I rebooted and everything worked!
11. Installed the intermediate package first and then the official 6.0 software through the dload method
12. Upgraded back to Nougat via the Marshmallow build

The only unfortunate thing was that I received a Nougat beta built, but I think I'll be able to find a finalized version online.

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.

Hi, I bricked my phone(L29C432) and I don't know what I can do now.
I upgraded via Firmware Finder to EMUI 9. Then I flashed this twrp and flashed this RR rom. After that I did format data in twrp. I don't know what went wrong, but now I can't boot twrp, erecovery or the system. I'm stuck at the "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted." screen.
What I can do is enter fastboot mode and flash a recovery via fastboot, but it doesn't boot.
I tried every twrp I could find here. I extracted recovery_ramdis.img from update.app(both EMUI 9 and 8) and flashed it. Nothing will boot.
Can anyone help me please? I'm in despair :silly:
Thanks in advance

Try flashing back stock system from fastboot. System from the build you were on
Always factory reset from stock recovery, never twrp.

Hey guys,
after searching through different websites and guides you are my last resort to get a custom ROM running on my Redmi S2.
Everytime i try to flash a custom ROM i get the error 255. Here is what i tried until now (bootloader is unlocked):
- flashing twrp(twrp-3.2.1-0-ysl) to recovery using fastboot
- wiping phone (first wipe to disable encryption since miui puts some kind of password on the hard drive that i dont know, second wipe to ensure partitions are clean for new OS)
- mounting phone to pc to transfer OS image (tried Lineage and Havoc, both modified for S2 (ysl version)) and GApps
- finally, installing OS zip (after which i get error message 255, telling me that twrp wasnt able to install the zip file)
please help me out, ask away if something's not clear

Try this, you have to flash first this in fastboot https://files.orangefox.download/OrangeFox-Beta/ysl/ the R10.0-1 RC1 .img file
And THEN flash this https://orangefox.download/en/device/ysl once you are in the recovery.
Then it worked for me, finally, hope this helps.

so i tried this approach. i first installed how you told me to (orangefox R10.0-1 RC1 .img first), but factory reset nor installing the second recovery img worked because of the encryption miui puts on the phone. So i flashed twrp, wiped memory, flashed first orange fox img and from then installed the second img (as a zip). until here everything worked, orange fox told me that he's going to reboot to new recovery -- and i got stuck on the boot logo again. :c

Did you flash the firmware? https://github.com/XiaomiFirmwareUpdater/firmware_xiaomi_ysl/releases/tag/stable-16.03.2020
Other thing you could try is flash the other .img files from https://files.orangefox.download/OrangeFox-Beta/ysl/ and the flash in there the same .zip file you did as before.

i suppose you flash it using MiFlash right? If so, i have a problem with flashing new roms using it because my Mi account isnt allowed to do that, i unlocked the bootloader using a tool (dont know if this has something to do with the custom rom problem)

As long as the bootloader is unlocked it should be fine. And no, you should flash the firmware just as you would flash the rom, i. e. from OrangeFox Recovery.

UPDATE: i finally ****ing did it. So here are the steps that i took (incase anyone has to go through this **** as well)
1. flash MIUI on mobile device using MiFlash (at least i did this by shorting 2 pins on the back)
2. (VERY IMPORTANT!!!) instantly boot to fastboot using Power button + Volume down. this has to be before android starts setting up the phone
3. flash recovery with the image that celephrn provided in this thread
4.boot to recovery by holding Volume up + Power button
5. install the miui update that celephrn provided in this thread
6. reboot to recovery
7. install orange recovery zip that celephrn provided in this thread (phone reboots to recovery)
8. now you can reboot to system (Do NOT (!!!) set the phone up, just let it work its things until you see the MIUI setup screen)
9. Now, finally you can dirty flash your custom rom (and GApps)
10. after flashing the new rom android will throw you alot of errors so you will have to wipe Dalvik/Cache, System, Data and Internal Storage.
11. now you can flash your Rom clean and you're good to go
(huge thanks to celephrn, helped me out after me struggling for a few good weeks with this damn phone)
