So I got a few nokia 3.4's off ebay. Grabbed em due to being cheap. Posting did state they were passcode locked, whatever factory reset
Well, boot to recovery, and there's NO factory reset option?!? Just reboot, power off and reboot fastboot?
How do I reset these things?

stupid freaking company.......
I got the update OTA few minutes ago, downloaded the update then applied and now my phone is not working anymore....
All i get is iu system stopped working
i have a nexus 5 stock non rooted
i tried to reboot the phone several times
Also tried volume down and power, but the only options i have is:
recovery mode (wich do nothing).
restart bootloader(wich do nothing)
start
or exit
Im not even able to go back in my options to do a factory reset
help me please and fast before i throw this phone into the wall
EDIT:
after calming down a little, i found how to do a factory reset in the recovery mode, phone is formating /data atm
You can factory reset by booting to recovery. So go back to the bootloader (Volume down and Power). Then you should see an android with an exclamation mark and the words "No Command". From there, hold the power button & tap Volume UP one time. That'll boot you into recovery mode.
Now I know performing a factory reset from within android will completely wipe the phone, I'm not sure if it's the same with a stock recovery. So if I were you I would ADB pull the contents of your /sdcard before performing the factory reset. After that just use the volume keys to navigate to perform factory reset and power key to select.
It also might be worth a shot to only wipe cache the first time you go to recovery and then reboot and see if that worked. If not, pull your data to PC and then factory reset.
Calm down more first

thanks,
well i went directly to factory reset, we'll see.
when i changed from my n4 to n5, i had a backup and i also have a backup from my email account so i guess i wont loose everything
the only "customisation" i did was to change some icons on my N5, i dont understand why i got that iu system error
Sure, no problem.
Hopefully the factory reset fixes it for you. If not and you need some more help installing the factory images via fastboot, just holler.
After i did -> recovery -> factory reset
then used ODIN AP -> N920TUVU2COI5_N920TTMB2COI5_N920TUVU2COI5_HOME.tar

volume up+home+power to download mode, let whatever happen happen, then scroll down to wipe data/ factory reset. do that, won't bootloop after that

I tried rooting my brand new Mate 9. I unlocked the bootloader, but the wipe that followed failed for some reason. In the eRecovery there's no option to Wipe Data / Factory Reset and when I try to log in at the start screen, the keyboard is not showing up, so I can't even log in. Tried wiping through ADB, but it doesn't even see the device. Any other way to wipe it, so I can proceed with installing TWRP and rooting this sucker. Thanks in advance!
You can boot to fastboot and flash twrp.
While the usb plugged in,hold volume down and power, when the phone vibrate remove power button and keep pressing volume down.
For stock recovery, remove the usb,hold volume up and power and when you see the logo, remove power and keep pressing volume up.
You can copy a keyboard apk on ur sd card and install when you are in the system,just skip the log in screens.
Thanks! I managed to install TWRP and boot to it to do a factory reset, thinking that it will resolve my login issue. Now I'm stuck in bootloop.
And if I try to boot into TWRP again by pressing Volume Up + Volume Down + Power it boots me into eRecovery that wants to perform an update, which after 5% fails saying: The update package does not exist.
So I can't even get back to TWRP nor the system.
Any advice to resolve this?

well to boot into recovery just use vol up+power and release once u see the huawei logo.btw when your factory reset fail during unlocking BL you can manually boot into the system and reset thru settings again.
Never do factory reset via twrp. It does not support huawei's data partition.
To avoid bootloop, just flash stock recovery and do factory reset with it. You need flash additional stock zips to restore additional apps and themes.
I had exactly the same problem as you. After rooting and start wipe, the factory reset seems had not finished well and the phone booted to lock screen with password field, but without keyboard...
Only procure that worked for me was rebranding the phone and installing another full room using Funky Huawei. Yes I know it is a paid service but I believe you will be happy to know it can help you.
Good luck
So as the tittle said, i had enter to recovery mode to factory reset but theres no option for it. I forgot the pin after the phone restarting.
