back to stock firmware. stuck on bootloop - General Questions and Answers

Hello,
i have a Huawei Honor 6X (BLN-L21):
Multitool picture while phone is connected via fastboot:
ibb.co/Ykk6DdP
I had LineageOS 14.1 installed on my phone but I was missing some of the EMUI features. I decided to go back to EMUI (EMUI5.0). Everything worked fine. After that I wanted to install Magisk with this tutorial: How to install Magisk (xda)
After flashing the zip with TWRP the phone wanted a password for decrypting. I entered my normal screen lock pin. After checking it was saying that the password ist correct but my files were corrupted. I had to click on "reset phone" which was starting something like "factory reset lowlevel" but the same issue appeared after that.
I decided to get the firmware BLN-L21C432B382 with the Firmware Finder and I am having trouble to install that. First I wiped with TWRP then installed stock recovery and stock erecovery but when I try to force install the stock firmware, the installation gets stuck at 5% and then skips all the way to 100% and restarts. After the reboot I can see the Honor boot animation but it restarts before the normal screen appears. I guess this is called a bootloop. Any suggestions about it?
PS: I already tried to use erecovery to download the right firmware but its telling me "getting package info failed"

Stuck on Boot screen after flashing TWRP

Hello,
I just flashed the latest ROM for the S8+ (AQL5) and that went well.
Afterwards I tried to flash TWRP, but now the phone is stuck on the Samsung screen.
I then followed the guide I found here to use the BL file of AQF7 in Odin and spam the Start button so I managed to get into TWRP.
Question is, what do I do next? I restart the system it's the same problem all over again.
No one explains anywhere what to do in TWRP to save the phone.
Can I remove TWRP or somehow save the phone (without wiping my data)
Please help
Can you get to download mode? Then go to ODIN and redo your flashing of the OS and then TWRP. After the flash of TWRP, immediately boot into TWRP, and do Verity if you want that, and your root, if not already done. Clear Dalvik/cache and reboot to system.
It is not uncommon for folks, following TWRP flash, to get stuck in boot loop, unfortunately. Can take a little time, but you will get through it and finally to System.
But I thought all new firmware versions are incompatible with TWRP and cause this error.
I might try to install TWRP again if I flash the latest compatible version (I think it's the F7 one).
Does "Verify" in TWRP make that annoying "Your phone is not verified" message go away? The only option is to Reset phone when that thing comes up and I don't want to do that.
I managed to get out of that by reflashing the AQL5 version and just not installing TWPR.
Kind of scared to retry because everything goes wrong when I try to follow the guides on here or youtube

Soft Brick Mate 9

I soft brick my Mate 9. I was on Resurrection Remix O 6.0.0 Unofficial (Android 8.1. ) and my front camera and fingerprint didn't work. Phone was unlocked and rooted at the time. I was trying to go back to stock and reflash the official RR (GSI). I accidentally fastboot flash stock Oero system.img (MHA-L29C567B367 - 8.0.0.367). Phone can't pass "Set up as new phone" screen and no keyboard at all. I suspect incomplete flash. It shows "FRP lock" on fastboot screen.
What I did so far?
1. Tried to grab firmware from stock recovery, getting package failed.
2. Tried dload method with that same Oreo stock rom's update.app (MHA-L29C567B367 - 8.0.0.367).
3. Tried HWOTA8 - Replace recovery but fail due to the locks.
4. Tried HiSuite - It fail to recovery my phone.
5. Tried factory reset via eRecovery. It did reset successfully but still stuck in eRecovery bootloop.
My phone now is locked on both Phone and FRP. Any idea? I really need to use the phone. Thanks in advance.
Update: Unbrick it via FunkyHuawei eRecovery method.
Mod: Please delete this thread. Thank you.

Tried it all with bricked Honor 6x. Any help is appreciated

I already posted here, but i was with no pc for some weeks so couldnt answer to the thread and now its old, Im back.
Situation is like this, huawei gr5 2017 (bll l22) bricked after bad flashing and software manipulation.
Vol down + power gets me to fastboot, it says phone unlocked and FRP unlock.
Download method with vol down + vol up + power doesnt work, always stuck at 5% saying "software install failed, incompatibility with current version" or doesnt say anything at all, just stuck at 5%.
Also, when i try to wipe data/factory reset from stock revoery it says "reset failed"
So dload method doesnt work, i also tried using DCPHOENIX software which saved one of my older huawei phones but it didnt work at all this time. When i flash a twrp recovery through fastboot, it flashes succesfully but when i boot into it it just boots into the stock one, and there the restore to stock option always fails after i connect to wifi saying that "failed to reach the server" or "failed to download the firmware", something like that.
I had twrp some days ago, out of the blue it booted into it. I had stock firmware on my sd card fortunately so i tried to flash the zip and itfailed with error 6 or 7, cant remember which. Anyways that twrp instance dissapeared after a reboot and now its always stock recovery, cant install twrp (described that above already).
So, do i have any options? nothing seems to work. no recovery, no dload, no dc phoenix, no fastboot (i tried flashing boot, system images through fastboot but it denied access to those partitions) flashing, i tried sp flash tool but the honor 6x roms have no scatter file and the flash tool requires one
Help, please. Ill appreciate it
What was your EMUI version before brick? Have you tried manually booting into TWRP? After you finish flashing don't reboot. Just hold power & volume down. If not then try to load TWRP recovery. It won't install but sort of load it. I don't know the exact command. If your phone is bootloader unlocked and frp unlocked try fastboot erase. System and then user data. I had a hard brick and it was even worse. No recovery, no fastboot and no dload. Just stuck. Managed to fix it myself without DC or Phoenix. So don't lose hope.

I cant remember if it was marshmallow or nougat so it was either emui 4 or 5. Im trying it all again and it doesnt work but ill keep doing it i guess
Try flashing recovery of nougat and then manually try to boot. Or maybe try to load the recovery without installation. It has a different command but I dunno.
hi, I have pretty much the same problem, somehow wiped the 'system' through TWRP. And since then I am trying to flash TWRP to boot, but I am getting nothing. I had EMUI 8
Tried flashing stock nougat through Multi Tool but no use, it succeeds but does not boot into anything, just the stock recovery whenever I turn it on.
Whenever I flash TWRP and try to boot into recovery (Vol-up+power), it would always boot into stock recovery.
Tried booting into eRecovery, but same thing.
Tried command fastboot boot RECOVERY-V2.img, but got the problem saying 'command not allowed'
what to do.

Messed my honor 6x. Help me recover.

Update: I tried flashing TWRP by Askuccio through fastboot and I successfully did. Then I flashed PixyOS v2.4 and flashed it successfully then flashed Gapps and stock recovery then followed rest of the required steps and everything went smooth and right. Using PixyOs now. Great rom with great stability with Android P. ?
I was on Oreo on my 6x. I wanted to flash this pixyos rom on my Honor 6x. I unlocked the bootloader of my phone installed the Twrp successfully without any hassle. Now it was time to flash PixyOs and unfortunately I did not do any backup of any sort. The PixyOs Package showed some error when I tried to clean flash it. And here we go my phone had No Os now. I searched a lot and found this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-6x/how-to/update-bln-l22c675-emui-5-x-x-to-emui-8-t3819317
I gave it a try step by step thinking about that it would work but after successfully following all the mentioned steps and flashing everything I got this "System failed" error when the device was booting. In other words it didn't work eventually.
I tried the dload method with the same update zip from the thread linked above but it failed too.
I tried erecovery to restore my device but it gave me "Getting package info failed".
I don't know what to do now. Please help me with this and help me restore my phone.
I had the same issue
i made something like this a month ago
only one temporary solution worked is flashing EliteRom via twrp and i got the phone working again but still can't flash a stock rom.

Can you boot to fastboot. What did the PC say when you ran the script. Try to flash TWRP if EMUI 5 and then press and hold Volume Up and Power to boot into it. If it works, good. If not then again boot to bootloader and try to flash TWRP of EMUI 8. Again try to boot into it. If it works, good. Anyway, once you're in TWRP don't let your phone turn off. Plug it in charging. Now go-to wipe, and format data

I'd suggest you to try PixyOs (With Askuccio TWRP). It's a great and fluid ROM. Only downside is it doesn't have Stock Emui camera and I didn't even try flashing it because I read somewhere that it causes the device to get stuck in bootloop.

U12+ stuck in bootloader/ twrp

Hello there,
I´m stuck in fastboot with the message "Software status: modified" and "This device is corrupt. It can´t be trusted and will not boot." I have entered fastboot, then used temporarily TWRP 3.3.1.0 to flash magisk (root) and now i can´t boot. Stuck in middle between root and stock kind of... what steps are now possible to solve the problem of not booting. Do I have to do go back to stock by putting the ruu.zip on sd card and reflash in download mode or is there any workaround for the software status message. I don´t want to loose my encrypted user data by the full wipe of RUU. I also have to state that my U12+ was on the latest Pie Update (Android 9.0). At the moment I can enter fastboot, download mode and temporarily twrp, however i am not sure if that A/B security structure of the partitions cause that "corrupt" message. Thanks in advance!:good:
Since I ran out of solutions I decided to flash a RUU.zip and went back to stock. If anyone still finds a way to install magisk via temporary twrp on pie and to fix the "corrupt device" security message please leave a step-by-step guide.
