Hello,
I installed the beta cyanogenmod 13.0 for my Honor 5x about a month ago. I saw that recently a version was released with the fingerprint sensor functionality, but it required you to go back to stock and update to emui 4/MM. So, put the dload folder for the Emui 4.0 stock on my sdcard card, booted into bootloader, and flashed the old recovery. Now, when I boot my phone, it is stuck on the splash screen. I can go back into the bootloader and use fastboot commands, but nothing else. Help?
Edit: I tried flashing all of the recoveries for the KIW-L24, none changed anything, except the newest one caused the splash screen to go away after a few seconds, and a blue LED to appear.

I have done that but my phone continues to stay on the honor splash screen. I can only go into the fastboot/rescue mode by holding volume down and power.
I tried the steps on this post, but it changed nothing: http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-5x/help/bricked-honor-5x-t3328308/post65659088#post65659088

flashing the partitions with fastboot is not needed with your phone.
The dload/update.app works, just be patient and follow the instructions I posted.
If you need to restore to Stock B151 use this TWRP backup >> https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24588232905720643
You also need this version of TWRP to restore it >> https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24545070682210514
Fastboot flash TWRP
in TWRP go to backup and check only boot.img > make the backup
now extract the b151 backup to your PC and copy it to the phone
their will be a directory named TWRP/BACKUPS/yourserialnumber/put the backup here
Now in TWRP choose Restore choose the backup you just copied over and be sure all the boxes are checked for restore
swipe to restore
be sure B331 dload/update.app are on the sdcard
In TWRP choose Reboot / Power Off
unplug the usb
hold power + volume up + volume down
when you see the first honor screen let go of power and hold the volume buttons till the update starts (be patient it takes a while)
EMUI recovery will load and do the update when it reboots your done
I had the same issue in the same scenario you described. It happened to me because my SD card was almost full. I'm guessing the Update file has to decompress and there was inadequate space available to complete the operation. When I switched to a clean SD card to run the update, it completed successfully. Hope this helps you!
I also had similiar issue, however the latest recovery from Huawei stopped at 5% and didn't complete. I flashed the recovery from B151 and ran the update again from the SD card and it worked.
remember you need spare space on the device for the update process! Keep around a gig free on whatever storage device you use for the procedure (internal or external SD)

Download the latest firmware for your phone, extract it to get update.app, use Huawei update extractor to extract stock recovery.img from update.app
Flash recovery.img in bootloader mode(the same way you flashed twrp).
Copy update.app to a folder named dload in your SD card. Turn off the phone and press and hold power, Vol up, Vol down until a reboot. Let go of power after reboot but keep other two pressed for five, six sec more.
Still Failing

Yep, it should work. But best way is to install official firmware yourself. It's not so difficult as you are already familiar with flashing images.

Power + vol up always takes you to recovery, right now you have twrp recovery so you are booting into it.
If you flash stock recovery then it will take you to stock recovery.
Best method is as I said, flash stock recovery, update using three button method.
Flashing a twrp backup is a solution but not the first recommended one.

First copy the dload to your memory card with update.app. Then Flush Stock recovery and power off or reboot while pressing both volume button.
The installing automatically starts. I have done this 3-4 times.

while porting CM13, I got message Patching system image unconditionally while installing.
And Phone stuck in the boot loop of CM13 logo and restarts every time.
I have installed CM13 previously, it worked fine. But now I am unable to port it.

@[email protected] This doesn't always work! I am a veteran at flashing phones. New to the Honor 5X, but I have done my fair share of flashing to understand what is happening a little bit behind the scenes. I flashed Cosmic OS but decided to return to stock for the camera app. Like an idiot, I did not make a TWRP backup of my stock image. I flashed stock recovery and tried to Force Update the B331 UPDATE.APP and it hangs at 5% just like another user here. Going to restore a TWRP backup to see if that is more successful for my situation.
Set sdcard as default storage

did you read any of the other threads about updating with TWRP ?
it's hard to help people when they don't tell you anything about their phone.
do you have a KIW-L24 / L22 / L21 or something else ?
did you try and find the correct update and stock recovery for your phone in The 5X File Depot ?
Did you read the how to return to stock so you can take updates ?
I can help you, but you have to post useful information and you have to try and find answers that have already been posted

If you flashed stock recovery you no longer have TWRP
to apply the update.app you put it in a folder on your ext_sdcard called dload
then power off the phone and power it on holding volume + and volume - and Power
this will start the flash from the dload folder

update.app is not corrupt it's encrypted you can't open it without a special tool

@clsA: I'm in the same boat with my L24 Kiwi lol...where do I get the L24 update.app? I have the OTA+update+to+B151.zip from your file repo. Can I put the file as named into the dload folder and reboot into recovery, do I name it update.app or do i need special tools to go into the zip and get the update.app? On a MAC if that helps in your answer.

if you have an L21 and the update failed it's difficult to recover
if you have a different model their are other ways to fix your phone
to enter fastboot mode
1. Place the device in fastboot mode:
Turn off the device. (then wait for at least 2 seconds) For a mobile phone, press and hold the volume down and power keys simultaneously for at least 10 seconds (for a tablet, press and hold the volume up and power keys).
2. If the above operations do not switch the device to fastboot mode, please try the following steps:
Turn off the device. (then wait for at least 2 seconds) Then insert the USB cable and press and hold the volume down and power keys simultaneously for at least 10 seconds.
Step 2 worked for me every time

clsA has made it simple enough for me in his previous posts in this thread.
Here is what I did....
- I downloaded the B151 stock recovery from clsA's Honor 5x file repo LINK HERE and in his signature and flashed it via fastboot. To enter fastboot look at post #14 in this thread.
- I downloaded also the B151 stock rom [Honor 5X_Firmware_KIW-L24_Android 5.1_EMUI 3.1_C567B151.zip] When you open this zip you will see the dload folder.
I was unable to adb push to the SDCARD so I had to use a card reader to move the dload folder to the root of the SDCARD.
- Once the dload folder is there you can hold down the key combination in step 2 of post #14 and the once stuck at 0% EMUI loading screen will count up the stock firmware install.
Hope it helps you returning to stock
Hey guys,
I've had a total of 4 android smartphones during the last years, and I did root all of them and even install diferent ROM's, but on this phone (Honor 7) was kinda diferent.
The root process is way more complex than all the other androids I did root (simply flash a .zip file...) so I've been post-poning this task over and over..
Finally yesterday I gained courage to try out rooting my phone, and while attempting to root my Honor 7, after flashing SuperSU from TWRP, my phone no longer booted.
Stressed as I was, I just told to myself "f*ck it" and formatted the system and I didn't care much if there was a fix without needing to format the system. (but then I realised that I could not find any .img ROM files to flash from TWRP recovery, so basically I did my actions wrong once again)
I followed the tutorial from guidebeats.com which talks about rooting EMUI 4.0 Android 6.0 (I cant post links)
Basically this is the story:
While unlocking the bootloader, even though, the tutorial said the phone would reboot itself after typing "flashboot oem unlock 1234934829" I did a hard reboot (or reset?) holding (VOL+) + Power button and I have the feeling that the bootloader unlock was not 100% done, even if it said it was unlocked. (Phone was working perfectly fine there)
Then I flashed SuperSU, and I could no longer boot. After powering up my phone, after the first splashscreen, the screen would only turn black.
What (I think) I need to now is remove the TWRP recovery, and use the stock one and attempt to install an "update" using (Vol+) + (Vol-) + Power. (please correct me if I'm wrong)
But now there's some issues I got that I'd like some help with:
1- How can I get back to the stock recovery? (NOTE: I currently got no OS installed on my Honor 7, since I formated it)
2- Will I need to lock and unlock my bootloader again (if I want to 'fix' the bootloader unlock?)
3- Where can I get official Honor 7 stock ROM? (would be awesome if there was already the Android 6 stock rom for a clean install)
4- What are the steps on this tool (Honor 7 Multi-Tool) to root my phone?
I need my Honor 7 asap
Sorry for the long post, It's my first time doing a more advanced root and I have all these questions.
Thank you very much for any kind help!

As you are already familiar with adb and other stuff so will write a short post for you.
To download latest firmware, head to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/hon...tock-firmware-packages-honor-7-t3448747/page1
Google, download and install Huawei update extractor and open UPDATE.APP in it (obtained after extracting firmware).
You can see all the images. Just extract recovery and boot to platform-tools folder.
Meantime, do the unlocking command again, with
Fastboot OEM unlock xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Followed by fastboot reboot
And press and hold the vol down button again until you reboot in bootloader.
Flash the recovery and boot you extracted using
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
(I got a habit of extracting and flashing system and Cust using
Fastboot flash system system.img
Fastboot flash Cust Cust.img
But they are not necessary)
Now you are set to try a 3 button update (sometimes it gets stuck so if it's stuck for 15 minutes, try 3 button again).
Please do report back if it comes to life.
To root, just flash twrp and then use SuperSU 2.62 (no other version) and update it later using play store.

Hey!
Thank you alot for your reply.
From the link you sent about the firmwares, there are alot of Builds for the L01 (EU) model. Can I simply use the latest from the list or I gotta install 1 by 1 (from older to newer)?
Also, the bootloader unlock thing, is it ok if I wait to do it until I install the stock ROM again? Because I think I don't have the code anymore (Also don't know about IMEI)
Other thing, yesterday before bricking my phone, I tried to re-unlock the bootloader as you said above, but it didnt let me because "it was already unlocked".
I really have no idea if it's 100% unlocked or not.
important thing!
With those ROM's, I still have the right to receive official OTA updates from the HiCare app right?
Thank you again

Unlocking bootloader again was just a precautionary measure (proceed without it and if it is not 100% unlocked and if something goes wrong, we can troubleshoot later, which imo, won't happen)
And yep, if you keep the firmware as it is, but if you flash twrp and root, you will still see the update available in Hicare but will have to install stock recovery again before upgrading. (Nothing else is needed as SuperSU 2.62 gives a systemless root so you only need to flash back stock recovery for an update)
I am not against honor-tool bit it's best to do things manually as it makes you learn stuff and is easy to troubleshoot if something is amiss.

Alright, btw, about the thing you said
"Now you are set to try a 3 button update (sometimes it gets stuck so if it's stuck for 15 minutes, try 3 button again)."
I gotta do that myself with an "update.app" file or what?
Sorry, I missed that part
Cheers!

You have to make a dload folder in SD card and copy UPDATE.APP to that folder.
Then just turn off the phone, press and hold power + vol up + vol down until phone boots.
Let go of power but keep others two pressed for 5, 6 sec more. Your phone will boot into recovery and start installing UPDATE.APP
It likes to get stuck at 5% (most reports) but sometimes, somewhere else. If its stuck for 15 minutes on a particular percentage, just press and hold the above three buttons again using the same process.
Multiple tries make it work...

That's great... Enjoy your phone and as for coffee, well, let's say, you owe me one and we will leave it at that
Better yet, you can search DigiGoon and pay him for the coffee, he taught me what I told you.

Hello
How did you format your phone?
I'm still struggling with going back to Android 5 and EMUI 3.1 since there is no rollback file available. (PLK-AL10, B396) Maybe formatting and installing the old rom could be a solution, like in your case?

Hello.
Do you have unlocked bootloader and TWRP recovery? You can format your phone from TWRP recovery.
I think the only option for you is to get the old ROM img and flash it (starting from 0)
You can dirty-flash (Flash a different ROM with same android version as yours, e.g: flashing custom android 5 ROM over your stock android 5 ROM without factory resetting your phone) but I dont think you can do that from Android 6 to 5.

Yes I have unlocked bootloader and currently not twrp but I can flash it at any time.
The last two paragraphs you wrote are different solutions or the last one is a more detailed explanation of the previous?
I have android 6 so the later method won't work as you said.
But formatting it and flashing a stock android 5 rom - is it that simple? Nobody here suggested this before, however I have been asking for months.
All the phones are empty when they leave the assembly line.
How did you flash the new rom to your formatted phone? Extracted update.app and flashed each file with fastboot? Any issues you faced?

From my last 2 paragraphs, the first was a solution, the second was an impossible alternative that I thought it would work.
My issue was that I had a custom recovery but I had no ROM installed, so I had to install the stock recovery and boot (extracting from update.app) and flashing it via fastboot, to afterwards force the update with 3-button method.
-----
What you'll need to do is:
- Flash TWRP
- Wype system, data, cache.. (so that you completely delete your current ROM)
- Extract recovery.img and boot.img from an update.app of an Android 5 ROM you'd like to have (Official ROM for your device model)
- Flash them via fastboot (You'll go back to stock recovery again)
- Shutdown your device
- Create a folder named "dload" on your sdcard and put UPDATE.APP file in it.
- Reboot
- Do the 3-Button update ([Vol+] + [Vol-] + Power)
- If it works, it will auto install
(- If it gets stuck on 5% for over 5/10min, force reboot pressing [Vol+] + Power) and try again the installation
- After installing it will boot normally (first boot takes a while)
NOTE: I'd recommend creading the dload folder before wiping the ROM, because usb didnt work for me afterwards. (It would still work if I was on recovery tho)
>> Remember to make a full system backup before wiping aswell, dont be stupid like me xD (thats why I had to full wipe my system after soft-brick)

Hi again,
I'm doing this OS installation now. It starts fine but stucks at 90%, (I'm trying to install the latest stock ROM which can be downloaded from Huawei site, B220 or221). Did you have the same issue? I waited more than half an hour at 90% but did not go on.

Maybe formatting, Flash stock Android 5 recovery using Honor multitool , and then Flash a Android 5 firmware
Not sure it Will Work without rollback..
Finally, after 2 months of struggling I managed to get back to Android 5 and EMUI 3.1 without a rollback file.
Here is what I did:
0. Download a full ROM you want to install
1. Backup of the current system with Hisuite (everything. Apps, media, contacts, call log, etc.)
2. Flash TWRP recovery with fastboot (start phone in fastboot mode)
3. Wipe (and format!) everything you can with TWRP
4. Extract boot.img and recovery.img from update.app of the new ROM with Huawei Update Extractor
5. Flash boot.img and recovery.img with fastboot.
6. Copy update app to dload folder on SD card, insert into the phone.
7. Restart phone with [VOL+] + [VOL-] + [Power] buttons to force update.
8. The system will be installed from SD card. I had no issues with the installation. First I did not format the phone (just wiped) and it did not work.
9. Restore data from backup.
The only strange thing is that the native app icons look different than my previous lollipop system. Don't know why. They are less colorful. I installed C00B220 for PLK-AL10.

Yes it does. (It did for me.) Technically this is not a rollback but installing a brand new system on an empty phone. That's why it is important to do a backup upfront.

Thanks for the answer. Im gonna try this method. I can't reflash any region rom.
Hey guys, I'm facing an issue right now.
I had a rooted OPX with TWRP and Lolipop. I downloaded the new OOS 3.1.3 from OnePlus site, flashed it. There was an error, fixed it by updating updater-script. Flashed the zip, then just after that flashed SuperSU zip and TWRP image over recovery. I don't know why I did that but that's the order. Then I forgot to wipe Dalvik/Cache and rebooted into recovery...It stuck in OnePlus Logo screen with powered by android written at bottom. Then I tried to boot into System by pressing the power button, it got stuck in the boot animation (The new one in Marshmallow update). It just keeps rotating infinitely (I think). I have waited for about 30 minutes on that screen, no luck.
What should I do? Is there a way that fastboot mode would be recognized by my PC and I can boot into recovery via image? Or any way for factory reset? Data is all backed up, so no issue about that. Just need it to get running asap.
Please reply asap.
Thanks for reading.
Did you try booting into recovery or fastboot manually ?
For recovery - hold all 3 keys, when OnePlus logo comes, then leave Vol Up key and hold the other 2.
Do the same but leave the Vol Down key for fast boot.
If either of this works then you can recover easily.

Just as I mentioned, booting into recovery doesn't work. Stuck at the OnePlus Logo Screen if I do that manually.
Though I can boot into fastboot. But after doing that, when I connect the phone to the PC, fastboot devices command returns an empty line.
We get so caught up in custom recovery and such that we forget about what people would normally do who don't mod. Simplest safest way to upgrade bootloader or downgrade is by using original stock recovery. Now your gonna probably need to go through the hard brick guide.

Yeah, I did for the first time.
I think I now know what went wrong. For future viewers -
Do NOT ever Flash Recovery Image through your recovery. Always use fastboot.
Something weird happened. I managed to flash recovery, update to OOS 3.1.3. Then for rooting, I downloaded TWRP and SuperSU zip from the links here http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/general/discussion-how-to-root-oneplus-x-t3242830.
But as soon as I flashed SuperSU, I got stuck in Bootanimation again. Why is this happening??

You have to use the modded SuperSU. You can find it in the many guides posted for oos3.

If you have AOSiP 5.6 Nougat I think you should already have root access with SuperSU, look for it in settings, if not, having a custom rom you should have a recovery, reboot to recovery and flash SuperSU.zip from the following link
https://download.chainfire.eu/696/supersu/
Good luck mate!

Oh dude, thanks for answering
But there is problem. I havent any option with "root" in name. And after install rom i losted my recovery. After this i installed cm recovery img by flashtool ( twrp image in flashtool bricking my bootloader). So when i flashed.... I have purple led. And okay... But when i going to recovery LED is correctly Orange. And after this phone screen is turning off and after few seconds going to normal system booting. For sure i have C6833. What i can do ? Im doing something wrong ?
Ok, I think you should flash TWRP 3.0.x directly to the new /recovery partition via fastboot:
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Here's a link to the full thread with detailed instructions and links to download the .img file you'll need, this way you'll never loose recovery again
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3307043
Then if successful you should be able to boot to your new recovery and flash SuperSU.
If you were to fail to get recovery with that method you might have a different problem, try the above, if it doesn't work I'll help. There's a chance your recovery partition wasn't created correctly....

Hi!
After flashing that twrp 3 you linked, I still can not enter to recovery.
Power button, wait for purple, push vol down purple changes to weird lightbrown, than nothing.
before cm was working, than I was put a dual rom there, which wasn't able if I remember correctly to flash that nougat, so i flashed it from fastboot. From there I'm not able to enter recovery.
Also that link says "To use, make sure you have installed the new bootloader by flashing the latest stock Sony ROM at least once."
So it could be a problem? I don't know which one was the last stock Sony ROM it, I was bought it used, and w/o thinking I was put cm on it.

You seeing the led going purple and all colors shows you are on an old stock rom.
Flash the latest firmware with Flashtool: http://www.flashtool.net/downloads.php
And try again.
I need stock 5.1 lp for flash recovery ? Damn....
Ok I did it. No purple light now.
But now I don't know how to enter recovery.
Stock sony 5.1.1 is on. Tried to get in recovery, but just boots.
Flashed twrp 3.0 still don't know how to get in.
I thought to install XZDualRecovery https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2647492 because it says how to enter into it, but im not sure i can flash it via fastboot.
heeeelp!
edit:
adb reboot recovery just simply restarts back to android... ? O.O

never mind, it works now
To enter recovery:
* Switch off the phone
* Hold Vol-Down & Power button simultaneously until the phone vibrates
* Release the power button and keep holding Vol-Down until the Sony logo appears

You don't actually need it, if you had latest Sony stock at least once then the new bootloader would have been installed, and new /recovery partition created.
If you read and followed AOSiP installation instructions correctly, you should have been aware that having had lollipop installed in your phone was also needed for any Marshmallow or Nougat Rom to work, since your AOSiP worked that should've been the case.
Did you try flashing TWRP 3.0.x via fastboot?

You're almost there man, you now have a decent recovery, now as you said just do a full wipe, flash rom, gapps and SuperSU, reboot and see if it's working the way you like, write any findings or whatever at your rom's thread, good luck bro.

If I do that nothing happens.
The purple light come back to me, so i'm waiting for that, and when it appears, i press the vol-up and twrp comes in. Though it freezes out, if i press vol-down when the purple light is comeing, or when i press restart in twrp. Black nothingness in both cases.
I think the purple light at boot come back when I flashed nougat boot, system and userdata. I don't really understand. Firmware is a different thing right? It is not on the partitions.
I probably will put another nougat on it, this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xp...elopment-cm14-android-7-0-freexperia-t3457377
instead of this one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z-ultra/development/android-n-t3452954
I will hope it doesn't freeze inside the os.
edit: ohh its freezeng out there too: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68603461&postcount=17
eddit: your method also works i tried it again now. when i was powering off the phone it was freezed out. (but i thought it is off) so had to push that reset button.
Whenever your phone needs a restart, (i.e. something happened and it seems frozen...) you don't have to use the little red reset button, you can get the same result by holding Power button + Vol-up until it vibrates, that'll switch it off just like the reset button, then you can just turn it back on normally to boot to your rom or boot to recovery.
Hello everyone,
I am not an IT guy and apparantly not an intelligent man as well.
I tried rooting my phone following a guide I found and was able to unlock bootloader and install TWRP on my phone. When I tried the next step (installing Supersu) all my files appeared encrypted when I tried to install through TWRP. Checked some other guides that said "clean up data". Went to TWRP and wiped phone (genius). now i am stuck in fastboot & rescue mode or the emui recovery which does nothing.

Any help appreciated and sorry about the new post but through reading other posts, the standard language you guys use is way too advanced for my comprehension
Ok so you're phone is PHONE Unlocked & FRP Unlock, good.
You have access to :
- bootloader, good.
- stock recovery or twrp ?
- erecovery ?
In stock recovery not twrp, did you tried to "Wipe Data/Factory reset" ?
In stock Erecovery, did you tried to "download latest version and recovery" (while having stock recovery on recovery, not twrp) ?

you have to check if you gave stock recovery or TWRP.
Close phone, and turn on the phone phone holding Volume UP and Power together,. WHITHOUT ANY USB CABLE CONNECTED (otherwise you will have e-recovery)
if you have stock recovery you have to do so:
1) download "stock service B130" from:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hon...stock-t3696892
2) copy UPDATE.APP and update_STF-L09_hw_eu.app to external SDCARD into /dload folder
turn on the phone holding Volume + and volume - and power ( three fingers way)
if all is good, phone restart in stocj recovery and update firmware....
you will have again bootloader and frp blocked
if you have twrp installed, you have to install again a stock recovery....
you can try:
1) download "stock service B130" from:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hon...stock-t3696892
2) download those 2 file from
https://mega.nz/#F!Y59nFYbJ!fb1f4UpEdgABZ4NhOfu1JQ
3) put all files in HWOTA7 directory on external SD
4)In TWRP find the folder HWOTA7 on the phone SD and from it flash the file "hwota7_update.zip"
he phone will reboot itself into the stock recovery and it will install the firmware.
++++++ Important ! ! ! ++++++
After have installed the firmware, you need to boot into the recovery and make a full Wipe
if all ok, b130 firmware will be flashed.
otherwise toy will have now a stock recovery installed and you can try whit three fingers mode

Sorry @oslo83 i may be, as i mentioned i lack the specific knowledge...
i can only boot it in fastboot&recovery through "down volume + power key" or in the regular mode which after looping through the Honor logo a few times stops at the "eRecovery" from huawei.
that is basically all i have access to

Hello,
i was able to access TWRP through power + volume up.
i downloaded the files you mentioned (but the link was broken, so i searched for the 130b on XDA and found it) and put them on the SD card.
i clicked install and selected the service full repair zip and swiped to install
my phone rebooted and i got an error instalation failed
hello guys,
after i followed Angelo steps and i got a failed instalation notice, i went to erecovery and it suddenly gave me the option for a factory reboot, which i did and now i can use the phone regularly.
i am back to ground zero
i am not sure exactly what i did that worked, but it worked even though it said failed
thanks for the help
edit: Angelo i sent a donation as thanks
thanks again
thanks a lot.

I think that you have flashed a valid recovery (e-recovery don't give you a choice of factory reset)
And so you can solve.
Maybe I don't know too h
What you have done... But it is important that now phone is ok.
Which firmware you have now?
Check if your bootloader and Frp are blocked and of you still have twrp
