Are you on stock rom? if so you have to enable oem for fastboot to work, it should be somewhere in the developer settings. otherwise i wouldn't know

My device got bricked B330. So i had to reflash some stuff and ended up with false info under the section About Phone i had the same issue as him So i followed that instructions but i couldnt flash the Cust.img in the recovery (twrp) it gives me the error that i have as title. Without flashing the cust.img i cant use a revert package through dload since my Phone shows other information then the update package (denies to do the update instant) . My question how can i fix the error "File bigger then target device" so i can flash the Cust.img since fast boot doesnt work (error remote: command not allowed recovery) and twrp is my only option..
Instructions i followed to get back to stock.
Flash Boot.img, system.img, cust.img through twrp > flash stock recovery > Apply UK back to stock through dload
I cant flash cust.img so step 1 fails and i cant do the rest.

Anyone a idea why i cant flash this file through TWRP and fastboot? This is littery my last hope to get back to stock ;/

Oke i got a bit too excited. The fingerprint option is gone like it never has been there. Honor boot logo has a red H, i get the b140 update but cant apply it same issue with dload. Would you mind sharig your TWRP update? If it is possible for B330 and B130 Thx!

You need to use kiwi_twrp_5-14_recovery.img
and the backup needs to contain all these partitions
boot.emmc.win
cust.ext4.win"
erecovery.emmc.win"
firmware.info"
firmware.vfat.win"
misc.emmc.win"
persist.ext4.win
system.ext4.win000
system.ext4.win001
restore those and you'll be back in business
This rom also contains the /cust partition for b130

This is what i got.. http://prntscr.com/brv0ay the Repository doesnt contain this files aswell any idea? Is it possible to flash for example a full Kiw L22 rom and then use a revert package for L21 through Dload?
Oke what i did:
Wipe
Apply Cust partition with terminal
Apply backup/restore
flash stock recovery
Boots same issue, I just need the dload to get to work so i can flash the recovery pack. But it stays at 0 percent even after 15 mins.
What i found out is that i dont have the stock firmware (Dont have fingerprint and stuff, device doenst show as KIW L21), so i doenst do a ota update and local update ofcourse. I need a TWRP backup with firmware included. What im trying now is installing L21 MIDDLE-EAST firmware and then try to use a revert package for L21 through OTA.

Well, I'm not sure this is a good idea as it took me 11 days to upgrade from B140 (Lollipop) to B330 (Marshmallow) and only a few minutes to brick my Honor 5x L21 using a backup from kiwi_twrp_5-14_recovery.img when I wanted to revert back to B140... ^^
At boot time after the restore, I have an animated red H letter from the Honor Logo and impossible to get back to the welcome screen nor to any other screen so I don't have access to TWRP anymore...
We really need to have access to the official downgrade firmware from Honor !!!

Same issue.. I get red H honor logo.. cant apply a single update through ota/dload and finger print is gone.. I can do everything, installing apps and stuff but i cant revert back to full stock.

Could you link me the firmware.vfat and misc.emmc and persist.ext. Is there a way to make the update.app a flashable zip? Anyways any idea what i still could do?
Anyways what would you recommend me to go back to stock right now? Is it cuz my system partition is messed up? How to fix? thx anyways!

Arobase40 said:
As I said it is NOT really a good idea to use a TWRP backup to revert back from Marshmallow to Lollipop as it will brick your device !
I also said : ask your local Honor technical support for an official revert back firmware as your whole system is obviously messed up.
I don't know how you upgraded your smartphone but better downgrade to Lollipop first and try to upgrade again to MM a "proper way"...

Thats the point.. I simply cant. Phone doenst accept dload updates instant says "System Failed", most near honor technical support is 98 km out.
Ok anyways does anyone have a B330 full stock backup?

Arobase40 said:
I didn't say you had to move yourself to a technical support but place a phone call or mail them. You should find their phone number or their email address from your the Honor Website.
I'll do it myself by tomorrow...

I fixed it. Go to hi honor and search for honor 5x firmware, download it unpack it put the update.app on dload on microsd make sure you flashed stock recovery through fastboot hold power + volume down + volume up until it vibrates and done. I couldnt install any dload file on XDA the error "system failed" means the update is not for your device. The one on hihonor was the only one that worked for me ive been bussy 3 days its worth trying. I can link/upload you the download and instructions if you want to but ill do it tomorrow.

I can't flash any ROMs on my Honor 5X KIW L-21, or OTA update it.

So, I've been trying to flash CyanogenMod 12.1, since I'm still stuck on EMUI 3.1, because I can't flash OTA updates (I've tried everything, dload method, and yes I have unrooted and used the stock recovery)
Every time I try to flash a ROM via TWRP it turns off for a second and then boots back to TWRP starting screen. Also, when I boot my phone the boot animation's Honor H is red for some reason.
Thanks in advance!

Are you sure you have the right boot.img and recovery.img?
Usually that symptoms are due to messed partitions.
Did you flash current img files or did you got them from a different rom version?

Well, actually I once bricked my phone and had to restore through a TWRP backup, that only had the System and Boot partitions and it was the B130 version when I had B140, but it worked. So, do I need to completely flash everything or can I just pick up some files from somewhere?

You can use B130 as it is also Lollipop. But all the img from the same rom. You can update to B350 manually after, but first you need a stable rom working.
Let us know man if you fixed your phone. So if not, we can give firther recommendations.

Huawei GR5 KII-L21C185 wrong info problem

Phone was ok with this version KII-L21C185B321CUSTC185D001, I tried to reflash but I couldn't find the same version in .app format. I tried to downgrade to KII-L21C185B310CUSTC185D001 through SDCard but it failed. I used ADB to flash KII-L21C185B310CUSTC185D001 through those commands:
fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.img
fastboot flash boot BOOT.img
fastboot flash system SYSTEM.img
Fastboot flash cust CUST.img
All went fine except the cust file. Phone is working but with wrong info in the about panel as it has build 310 with emui 4.0.2 interface and it couldn't make both OTA or SDcard updates although I had the new update notification.
I used TWRP backup from XDA (GR5+TWRP+backup_KII-L21C185B130.rar) to go back to stock loilpop build 140 from this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/hon...depot-t3328288. Phone has correct info in the about panel build 130 lilopop but with no fingerprint menu and it can't make both OTA or SDcrad updates.
Any help would be appreciated. Regards.

I have already used this package (HUAWEI GR5 Firmware (KII-L21, Android 6.0.1, EMUI 4.0, C185B310CUSTC185D004)) before with my phone without any problem then I OTA upadted the phone to KII-L21C185B321CUSTC185D001. I tried to clean flash the phone after some bugs with viper4android and such mods but I couldn't find full flash KII-L21C185B321CUSTC185D001 so I tried dload method to downgrade to the previous full build (C185B310CUSTC185D004) which is available but it failed at 5%. So I extracted the rom files from (C185B310CUSTC185D004) and pushed them with ADB then I have the wrong info problem and I couldn't make SD card or OTA updates. I tried TWRP backup from device sticky thread and I couldn't make SD card or OTA updates plus fingerprint is not working.

Is it possible to make a .app into a flashable .zip?

Hi there
I bricked my Huawei Honor 7i (ATH-UL06) while trying to root it, I only have TWRP in it now, whatever combination of keys I use to turn it on, it always goes to TWRP. So I wanted to know if there a way to make the stock rom (from the official website) into a flashable zip file, to install it through TWRP. The stock one is a .app file "UPDATE.app".
Here's the link: http://download-c1.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=91392&siteCode=cl
I hope you guys can help me, I can't think of any other way to do it.
There's supposed to be a way using SP flashtool, but I'm not sure if it works, I don't remember where to get the scatter file for it, and besides, for that I think I've to put it in fastboot mode, but the keys for that take it into TWRP, so wouldn't work, I think(?).
Please, help :'c

yes, but its a complicated process,

Yes it possible to to make .zip file (for flashing via twrp ) from .app file Check out for Huawei multi tool
I successfully used it for honor 7 but don't know about honor 7i you should try on multi tool thread
It's ok. I was going to, but ended up using Huawei Update Extractor to get the stock boot.img. Then installed it through TWRP, and rebooted to bootloader to get into fastboot. With that I only needed to flash system.img and recovery.img to get it unbricked. Took me a lot of time, but I got the phone back. I'll be uploading a flashable backup of the stock rom soon, so others can get it faster.
Thanks anyway.

I could not find any custom Roms for your device.
I could find an stock Rom for the Mya-l41 trough.
Here is an link: https://mega.nz/#!wKpT1ZaS!CV-2E4sNnUwIurskAdqCDpDawWlZD2UeABtSELk_ffc
That should be an update.app or an flashable zip.
You may get Huawei Update Extractor and extract the system.img and boot.img of the update.app
After that flash system.img and boot.img from fastboot.
Warning. This may soft brick your device.
Good luck.
If i helped press the Thanks button

problem is, sp flash tool formatted my phone, but encountered an error trying to install the firmware and now my phone wont boot and windows says its not recognised
is there any fix to this? or is my phone bricked?
hey again! i know this post has been a wild ride of me doing stupid stuff and bricking my phone, but i got the firmware back!
only catch is that i'm receiving some nvram error (which i got on my previous phone too. i swear this is the last time im going mediatek), so if anybody has a method that can fix this it'd be highly appreciated
thanks
Hi, Ibxda.
Can you please share with us where you found the stock rom, what went wrong with flashing, and how you managed to get the firmware back?
I have a running system, but I rooted it and cannot apply official upgrades. I'd like to go back, upgrade and root again. I would appreciate the info on your progress.

You should root with Magisk, it's systemless and it should not affect updates. If you want to update you should flash stock recovery. After you updated you are free to flash Twrp again if you want. If you are rooted with SuperSU you should uninstall SuperSU and install Magisk

Bricked my V10 C432

Hello,
i was on EMUI 9 with my BKL-L09 and decided to give the custom roms a new try.
So i backed up my recovery_ramdisk (it was rooted with magisk before) and then flashed twrp (version 3.2.3-3).
Now i went for Wipe>format data and gave it a try. Result: it was hanging after makefs->(..) done. So i done the whole procedure again but it was still hanging.
Now i can't get back into twrp, because only the twrp bootscreen is showing up. Even after restoring my recovery_ramdisk backup with fastboot i can't get back into erecovery Is there anything i can do?
Thanks.
Ok, i solved this by myself through downloading the full ota update, extracting everything and flashing new kernel, system and recovery from ota update contents.
Can you put the CMD lines to do it?
Thank you anyway. I think i have the same problem.

I don't have this smartphone anymore but i remember the following:
1. Download the Full OTA Zip (e.g. here: https://www.getdroidtips.com/huawei...-update-for-honor-view-10-download-available/
2. Use the Huawei Update Extractor to extract the partitions from the content in the zip file. (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454)
3. Flash the partitions over the existing ones on your V10 using fastboot "fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdisk.img , ...) - these contents are inside the full ota package
Greetings
Did it work out for you?
You can also try to flash the original erecovery using fastboot und use the download option inside the Recovery App. This will reset all partitions back to default. But also all data is lost.

Did you just flash the erecovery or also the normal recovery partition und Kernel from the zip? What kind of error do you get?

Yeah i flashed the kernel and the recovery ramdisk. And now it boots into erecovery, but inside the erecovery, the option to download and install the last version of emui doesn´t work, it just shows an error that it can´t get the package info.
thanks for your attention.
greets
