Hello guys, i need your help to unbrick my phone. First of all what i did to brick it was to unlock the boot loader, then used the Honor 6 Multi Tool to get a Cwm on it with it, it was EMUI 3.1 in the choosing. After that my phone restarted and now its hung up at Honor sign, and i can only access Fastboot mode but not recovery. I tried already playing new flashes on it with cust, boot, system and recovery and got a update on my sd card but it didnt work, it doesnt recognize my update and still only shows the honor screen, can anyone help me? Much appreciated
I have the same problem as you... but i don't know the basic informations about the phone (like model , IMEI or other stuff)... so i need help to... THANKS
To successfully unbrick it, follow these exact steps and you'll be good to go.
Download your phone's latest firmware and extract system.img, boot.img, recovery.img, cust.img from UPDATE.APP using Huawei Update Extractor tool.
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.

While flashing the above commands, the phone needs to be in fastboot mode right? How to get it in the fastboot mode?

Try to get the unlock code coz the message
Remote command not allowed
Is because of bootloader still being locked. There is a way if you can start a chat with honor representative and ask him to give you the code.
There is a unlock code calculator, use it.

It's trying to install from Huawei hi suite on PC. Take the USB off and try again.
Hi. I was trying to install cm13 on my honor 8. I unlocked the bootloader, but while trying to install twrp recovery I think I deleted everything off the phone. The huawei erecovery doesn't work, and I tried sooooo many fastboot commands. I can't do adb commands. I can only get into fastboot mode. Is there anyway for me to get out of this? I tried flashing the system.img and boot.img from fastboot but it fails.

Yes. I installed a roll back update (something like that) by getting into the force update mode. After it finished, I had to then apply the full stock firmware. The problem was that I somehow put the firmware of another phone, because my model number was from a different Huawei phone.

Hi. I got tired of CM13, so I tried to go back to stock. I checked a guide online which told me to flash 2 files using TWRP. after that, I lost twrp and now my bootloader is locked. What do I do? I manually did an update with the update.app file, and it says update success, but when it reboots it stays on the honor 8 screen, I waited for 25 minutes and it's still there.

Try going into stock recovery and doing a factory reset after you use the update.app. You'll have to unlock the bootloader again and flash twrp if you want root.
Restoring to MM using a full image will typically lock the bootloader.
It happened to me too, it is possible you still didn't use the right image.
This is how I recovered mine:
1. Go here to download the latest firmware for your model: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=129406
2. Use the Huawei Update Extractor to extract files from the "Update.app". (Ignore the 'profile' drop down list in the app.)
3. Unlock your phone's bootloader.
4. Flash these four images (extracted using the tool from step 2):
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash cust cust.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
5. Boot into recovery and do a factory reset. This is needed to reformat the internal storage (and make it encrypted I think). (Power+Vol Up)
6. Put the Update.app file inside the "dload" folder in your SDcard.
7. Boot into flash mode to let the phone flash the Update.app (Power+Vol Up+Vol Down).

2 things, 1 is that there are 2 recovery files in the UPDATE.APP, and 2 is that I can't do a factory reset from the recovery, because it brings me to the erecovery and it doesn't give me the option to factory reset.

You need to hold VOLUME UP and POWER button with the phone off to get into the recovery to do a factory reset. Once the honor logo pops up, you can release the power and volume up buttons.
Recovery.img = Stock recovery
Recovery2.img = eRecovery

I just did everything exactly the way you said. But it still stays at the honor boot logo. I don't mind waiting over night for it to boot up if I have to, but I've never had a phone take this long to boot up, even on first boot.
For a "brick" thread, it seems odd that the model is never mentioned so that someone can really point you to the right spot. If you keep going to erecovery, then it has to do with whether or not your cable is plugged in (likely you've been keeping it plugged in for your fastboot attempts, or that's a guess). I only go to erecovery with both up/down & power if the cable is plugged in. If I want to get to stock recovery (regardless of what the hell is in the "recovery" partition, TWRP, or who knows?) then I unplug it before trying any key combo from power off to get there.
Lastly, if you use this sort of thing as a template (I'm just going to use one for the frd-l09 as an example, but stick the right model in there for you) ::
Example to plug into Google to find your rollback with instructions:: site:consumer.huawei.com honor 8 frd-l09 rollback
Click to expand...

So if you've got an frd-l04 then plug that in where frd-l09 is. It'll just look on the site consumer.huawei.com just above where the various country/variant breakdowns are, like US/ZH/HU/Etc. are.
Pick the one out that is closest to what it seems you want. All the pages are in the local languages so I'm guessing the .pdf that explains what to do is in the language you'll want as well.
Good luck:: Let us know what model phone you have.
More: Contents of first "intermediate" update.app is 8 image files. I'm sure the 2nd one that is specifically your own phone's version of b162 has a lot more files in it. I've not looked for awhile but I think it's 21 or 22 files. This is a two step process, first is all the crap that comes in update.app from the rollback page (just a 100K file which sets you up in intermediate state for rollback) and 2nd you find your exactly right b162 for your model phone, and pretty much repeat the process.
Yet More: One odd thing about the Honor 8: I've not seen it on other phones is the partition layout is not really "trustworthy" unless you really have gotten to understand it. There appears to be at least 3 or 4 places you can get to that I used to think would all have to be in the recovery partition, but apparently the Honor 8 works differently, so no matter how bleak your odds seem, .. maybe not. I got to both erecovery and stock recovery and rollback while TWRP was installed and it worked just following the directions from their website.
Agreed on this thing.

Thank you very much, you saved me and my phone !!!
I made a mistake: my phone was under android m and I flashed by mistake the rollback update (to go m from n), then my honor was bricked on bootloop, no recovery, no update by dload....nothing worked....
Your solution was the right one !! again thank you very much
Interesting observation with the eRecovery (recovery2 partition). So I have TWRP installed, the system partition modified and user storage not encrypted. I was still able to to use eRecovery to connect to WiFi and download the factory image and it automatically repaired the phone to factory state. I noticed it doesn't re-lock the bootloader afterward. This seems to be the easiest method to unbrick.
Getting into eRecovery.
hi! Or extract the files? sorry for my english

Ok after the factory reset (which is peppered with mounting errors)...
failed to mount /data (invalid arguments)
unable to mount storage
When I try to flash cust.img and system.img they both fail.
I cannot check what firmware I was on before I started all this, but I believe it was the latest one. This is a FRD-04. I flashed TWRP 3.1.0.1 erecovery and I can access it and fastboot.
I have tried various different things and nothing I do can unbrick the phone. Any help would be appreciated.

have the same problem as you on my FRD-09.
I don't have this phone anymore, but the easiest way I find to restore it is using eRecovery.
Hello guys,
I had some problems with my Honor 6x L21 so I tried to flash new custom ROM that I didn't like in the end. I tried to revert back and found update.app method. I somehow relocked my bootloader and now tried to install update.app which fails at 5 % and says it is not compatible.
Now, I have erecovery with me that can get nothing after connecting to wifi. No update from SD Card option available.
When I try to unlock bootloader again, it fails.
Also, when I run command 'fastboot oem get-bootinfo' the following lines do come in result:
<bootloader> unlocked
OKAY [0.009s]
Finished.
However, my phone shows Phone Relocked and FRP lock.
Any help guys?
@amannan: I have a US BLN-L24, I was able to use the dload method to roll back to Marshmallow from Nougat. I'm not sure why it sometimes fails at 5%, I think Huawei recently implemented something to cause the update to fail if you haven't passed an online verification check. So basically, no upgrading offline for some of the newer firmwares, someone correct me if I'm wrong. I think it has something to do with Nougat too.
In your case, all hope isnt lost as long as you can access eRecovery and fastboot. What you need to do is find the stock MM packages for your device. This will most likely consist of a small rollback file and a much larger firmware file. Go search Huawei's downloads section on their website until you find what you need, use your model as a reference point. There should also be a PDF file with instructions in it, read it.
For each of the 2 files you get, extract the zips, make a folder called dload on your MicroSD (not internal phone storage). In my case I had to first place the update.app file from the rollback zip into the dload folder, boot to eRecovery (hold volume up and volume down, then hold Power, let let of Power when logo appears but continue to hold the other keys). From there the file will automatically flash. Then I had to extract update.app from the large firmware zip and put in dload, repeat same process again. You should be back on MM.
If either file wont flash then go download Huawei Firmware Extractor. Use it to extract boot.img and recovery.img from the rollback zip's update.app, then boot to fastboot mode while phone is powered off. Plug in a MicroUSB charger into phone then plug other end into PC.
Then:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot
Make sure to install drivers for the phone first, just install HiSuite on Windows is easiest way. For ADB and fastboot, install '15 seconds adb fastboot" (Google it). If the terminal on your PC says something like "file not found", then either use the cd command (change directory) to move working directory to boot.img/recovery.img location, or move the files to C:\adb.
Once you're back up and booting you can then proceed to bootloader unlock, root, ROM flashing, etc.
Hope this helped!

Dear AnonVendetta, Thank you so much for the help. I was able to use the dload method. I read somewhere that the last firmware version needs to be updated using dload method. I had B361 before it got all messed up so tried that update and it started working.
Also, the fastboot won't flash any img file since the FRP was locked somehow.
Thank you for the help
@amannan: Glad it worked out, you must have already made progress before I posted, your response was too quick.
I do believe you cant flash anything via fastboot if the bootloader is still locked.
I've only owned my Honor 6X for about 2 weeks, I've had to do an emergency recovery several times due to various issues. This is my first Huawei but I've owned many Android devices before, and rooted/custom ROMmed most of them, so I'm just a newbie to Huawei but not Android in general. I'm getting the hang of things.
Good luck!

Yes, dload method is the only way to restore the device in such scenario. If frp is locked then condition is worse as you can not flash anything but only dload will help you. Correct package should be flashed and will succeed.
so i tried looking for old os found link on thread here still didn';t work i have f1f latest offical stock can't flash magictrick as it is outdated :crying::crying::crying::crying: help
Which one do you want? The first full zip provided on the now closed OPPO forums?

Download this https://mega.nz/#!MlAUkTwT!uZbcwSRvbkOJKF2jMkzxukqEVp3_SNG_QcdHYnpyDMw
Copy it on the root of internal memory, format data, install the zip and try magictricks again, it might work. Not tested.
wrong one
It don't have to be the old os just Any way to. Root the 5.1.1 would be great also if there is any magictrick for the latest official stock or the old one case i got the wrong one
it is the same that i tried and not working
The probability older version of ColorOS is in the Qualcomm factory reset or recovery tool. As it makes a reset of almost everything, I guess magictricks would work again.
Trying
same i am bulling my hair right now dose some one have way to root it without all the fuss
Explain what you tried, this would help others and help us help you to find alternatives.

can you guys help me in installing twrp
note: CMD mode says failed: devices unlock..why? I have installed a megictrick
When i get into recovery mode and install the magictricks.zip, i get a error "installed version is lower than current". Why is this?

Anyone unable to unlock BL on lateest/newer firmware , heres's solutions which i sucessfully unlocked mine.
Things needed :
1. Stock Firmware (MSMDownloadtool files)
2. Magictricks.zip (we need the mbn file inside the zip)
3. Twrp (downlkad from twrp.me) choose whatever version you need, i suggested to use the latest one.
4. Root (optional choose whatever you want supersu or magisk, i've sucessfully rooted mine with magisk.
Download latest Firmware (MSMDownloadtool files) you can seaech and find it , to get think easier i suggested you download it from here
https://www.firmware27.com/2016/09/firmware-tool-oppo-f1-for-unbrick.html?m=1 use the 06322 Build.
Once you've download it extract the zip files, now download the Magictricks.zip extract the .mbn files into the same folder you've extracted the firmware files before, replace the .mbn files with that .mbn files from magictricks.zip, open Msmdownloade inside and flash it (enter the download mode vol + vol - hold togather while you put the usb into computer, wait till all flash process done, and turn it on to makesure everythings goes well.
Hold the vol+ and power togather to entering fastboot, from this state you guys really know how to doing next... Fastboot oem unlock , and now flash the TWRP and ROOT your device, hit thanks if i helped
#edit, i saw the NV error messages jusylt ignore it dunno how and why that means

There's many problem with your solution.
1. After i extracted the firmware, there's no "Msmdownloade" File.
2. There's no download mode in Oppo f1f. I've tried pressing vol up and down and power, nothing happened, i've tried pressing vol up and down while put the usb to computer, nothing hppened.

Bricked my phone by doing the following:
Honor View 10 ROMs are compatible with P20 Pro, I installed and used them all. Then the other day they made a mod that force the EMUI 9 update so I ran it. The mod ended rebranding my entire phone to Honor View 10 followed by boot loops like crazy. So then I went into twrp and tried to format thinking it would help. It ended up deleting everything including eRecovery. The only this I had access to was fastboot. Yes I brought this on my self lol. I paid a lot for Funky Huawei but nothing worked. I tried every tool they had.
Fix: (Turns out my phone's structure is now EMUI 9\Android 9)
1- Downloaded my phone image (CLT-L04 - EMUI 9 version), extracted the update.app file from it.
2- Used EMUI extractor app to extracted everything from the update.app file (Lots of image files)
3- Noticed userdata.img wasn't in the extracted files so I downloaded multiple images that are similar models to my phone until I found it.
4- Used fastboot command to flash the userdata.img, followed by eRecovery.img, followed by the rest I pulled from that update.app file.
after about three reboots I was back into my phone except I now have EMUI 9.
My case is similar. I downgraded from B195 to rollback B161. Now I am literally doomed. No erecovery, no huawei logo, just plain black fastboot screen. My bootlodaer is unlocked and I'm unable to relock it. Huawei is denying service, is there any way to revive my black dead phone???
twrp.img gets flashed succesfully but doesnt boot into it.

Can you try this.
Files that you will be downloading are,
update.zip
update_full_CLT-L29_hw_eu.zip (Or whatever model of phone you have)
Get them here by searching for your model and click filelist
Prep:
a. Rename update_full_CLT-L29_hw_eu.zip to update_all_hw.zip
b. Download this Flash tool and extract in to a folder in your PC
c. Copy update.zip and update_all_hw.zip to ZIPS-HERE folder (you can find this folder where you have extracted Flash tool
How to flash Firmware
1. Double click to run the file cmd-here.exe. It opens command prompt in the same folder where you are.
2. Once command prompt opens, type FLASH.bat and follow steps carefully. Once flashing is complete, it will boot normally.
- if it fails to detect the files try removing the .zip from the names of the files in the ZIPS-HERE folder
This should bring back eRecovery, recovery, system, whatever. Even at the end if it fails the structure should be rebuilt enough for you to recover via HiSuite application. This worked for me.

Thanks for offering your help. Mine case looks different....
I have tried this, after flashing twrp in the fastboot the device fails to boot into twrp recovery, it's all black, only fastboot is accessible in the black screen.
I experienced the same problem. Bricked my P20 Pro and can only access fastboot (no access to erecovery). Could you tell me which image that you used to flash userdata.img and erecovery.img? I tried several images but none of them contains userdata.img and erecovery.img.
Thanks.
Edit:
Also, aside from userdata.img and erecovery.img, what files did you flash to the phone?

Update : Good news finally. My device is now unbricked by flashing downloaded OTA from Firmware Finder (Oreo B161 simple non-rollback version) using DC phoenix via testpoint mode. P.S. Flashing B195 pie didn't worked earlier.

Nice one!!
Can I ask that you help me out as I'm in the same situation? I'm scared about removing back cover and loading credit to CD and still not being able to fix it. A step-by-step idiots guide would be greatly appreciated.
How was it removing the back?
Did you need to buy a new back glass case?
Were are the test points and how do you trigger them?
What FW did you use exactly?
Sorry for the questions but I've yet to find anyone who's provided help to sort it.

After this process your bl will be in 'locked' state. If you had my kind of downgrade brick the imeis and serial will number will not be disturbed. You may simply use your old bl code to unlock. However I messed up my oeminfo but due to my own stupidity, I'm looking to restore my imei and will try to unlock again.
If possible, could you share the files you use?
