Hi,
I have bricked my Honor 5x after flashing custom recovery. This these the steps I followed:
1) Unlocked the bootloader
2) Flashed TWRP recovery
3) Flashed root
4) Tried to update OTA
Now the phone is stuck at boot screen. I can enter recovery by pressing volume down and power, but now is stock recovery. And I don't know what to do.
Can someone help me?
OK u can't OTA update with twrp AND U SHOULD try adb flashing twrp through fastboot and maybe restoring a nandroid if u have one if not there's some u can download around here
Hey, my phone is bricked too. How did you manage to flash adb during twrp. How did you restore the backup and where did you get it from?
Or could someone please explain to me how I can get back to stock. I saw one thread with the .app file, but there you had to go the setting or something, which I can't do.
I have twrp installed and I have the L21 version.
Ok, I figured it out. I took the backup and the instructions from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-5x/development/unrooted-stock-rom-t3308902

I was able to get my phone back to stock using the update.app file and the Huawei Update Extractor
Download stock firmware and extract the update.app file
http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-5x/development/repository-honor-5x-file-depot-t3328288
Download Huawei Update Extractor
http://d-h.st/wwfQ
Use the Huawei Update Extractor to open the update.app file and extract system.img, Cust.img, boot.img, recovery.img
Copy the extracted files to your adb folder
Connect the phone to the PC in fastboot mode, to do this power off the phone hold Volume down and insert a usb cable connected to the PC
Type these commands on ADB:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash cust cust.img
fastboot reboot
After that you should be back on stock firmware
I tried to do that too. But the problem was that my adb didn't recognize my phone. Of course I had everything installed.
When I unlocked the bootloader earlier, it worked. But there I had to enable USB debugging. When my phone was broke, I couldn't enable it. Maybe that's why?
However, my phone is working right now, so thanks anyway.
fixed

I have a practically dead honor 5x, flashed a L-24 firmware on L-22. TWRP doesnt let me do anything, no touch functions work so i cannot restore my back up.
Fastboot commands on format /data and flash cust cust.img fail with the error "Remote: Command not allowed", bootloader is unlocked, pls help.....I need to flash back the default cust.img to get it back to normal
SOLVED: Downloaded the official firmware, placed the "dload" folder which contains the update.app in the root of the sd card, went into download mode on phone (vol up + vol dow + power) and the system installed the firmware automatically.....booted back into the stock system now, next will reflash TWRP and restore back up

Yes, it is working perfectly.
Hi, sorry for hijacking a thread but I thought it'd be better than making a new one.
I did pretty much the same as the OP, unlocked the bootloader, flashed TWRP recovery, rooted and then stupidly tried to do an official update on the phone (I believe it was kiw-l21c432b140)
The phone is just now stuck at the boot screen, I can get into fastboot mode but cannot use ADB, says device isn't found no matter what I try. I also tried putting stock firmware on the SD card and going into download mode (EMUI) but it just says software install failed.. Any help appreciated, only got the phone today and have spent longer trying to fix it than I have using it..
Thanks!

As long as you are able to boot into fastboot you still have hope
Are you able to get into TWRP? (Power + Vol up) If yes, download the L-21 stock rom in the file repository thread and flash it. In all likelihood, that will solve any corruption of system files. If not, read on.
Did you check if you have installed the ADB drivers? I am assuming it should have been installed considering you flashed TWRP, but better to check and reinstall. Device not found is usually a driver error. Alternatively, you can install HiSync, it refreshes and replaces the drivers needed for Honor 5X. Further to installing that, try adb fastboot commands and flash the stock recovery using the steps in this post:

When I do power and vol up I get EMUI recovery, not TWRP I put the stock rom on the SD card and tried to install it and it just says "Software install failed" and the only option is to shut the phone down again.
I had all the ADB drivers installed, will reinstall it all and see if it helps. When I run adb now and use the "adb devices" command it just says "List of devices attached" and doesn't show anything..

Oh then you have stock recovery, are you using the update.app provided by Huawei? Or using any ROMs/images posted here? It is possible that you may have a corrupted download, look up the Huawei site for downloads in the support section for your region and download the official update.app, try with that

It wasn't stock recovery before, after the phone updated it went back to stock and wouldn't boot. I downloaded the firmware from http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-5x/development/stock-kiw-l24-l21-t3312684 and that's what I try to install through recovery and it says there's an error, a load of other texts flashes up before it says error but it's too quick to read. When I have better internet I'll re-download it in case it was corrupt. Thanks for your help, hopefully I can get it fixed as I only just got this to replace my old phone. Would be a shame to spend the money on it and have no use from the device.. Just wish the computer would detect through adb as I can get into fastboot easily enough.

Sure, we all help each other
BTW, just to be sure, you using the single "Update.app" file, that runs into a couple of gigs or the extracted one? You can't flash extracted Update.app through stock recovery.
HiSync (the official Huawei tool) also provides an option to recover the phone, tried that?

It's the single one, about 2.66GB I believe, I tried the recovering through the Huawei tool and it says "Your device is not supported for system recovery".

Oops! I am no techie, so am at the end of my wits, but thing I do suspect is a corrupted download, so if you can try downloading the file again from a stable connection and try is all I can think of. I've had this corrupted file thing quite a few times, so suggesting.

Hi everyone, I'm "new" on the forum. "New" because they are days looking for answers to repair my Honor 9...
After unlocking it, installed twrp and RRos 6.0 I made a mistake, I uninstalled the gapps from the system manually, and after restarting the phone, various error messages continued on terminated processes (com.google... stopped working).
I tried again to reinstall the gapps via twrp but nothing to do, after trying to reinstall the RRos (with full wipe), new error messages kept going out, but this time not only the gapps.. (trebuchet etc ...).
Trying several wipes and reinstallations of the RRos, I tried to go back to the EMUI 8.0, so I tried to install the European firmware via SD and folder DLOAD, but once I got to 5% the installation crashes.
Via fastboot I also tried to install the twrp again, but the recovery stock continues to appear.
Looking on xda and generally on the internet I have found various people with this problem and they have tried to solve with programs like DC-Unlocker or Phoenix, but they had locked bootloader or frp .. I from fastboot I have PHONE Unlocked and FRP Unlock.
I also tried to flash the img contained in the UPDATE.APP file, but nothing happens ... just recovery stock. Help please i am desperate :crying: and sorry for my english.
EDIT - 27/03/2018
-I solved many of the problems I had in this post, now I'm still in the twrp and I can not flash the stock firmware.
-I'm trying to format the microsd in exfat and then install update.app.
-I can not copy the 4.66GB update.app file to the MicroSD in exfat, fat or ext4 via twrp / PC. I will try with another SD reader.
-I formatted the sd in exfat and I managed to copy the dload folder, run the restore and no longer blocked at 5% (gave a 99% error). The system started and I went back to the b130 with nougat, now I try again to install the b120 to restore the captive keys. (trying again with hwota)
-Hwota worked, now with the b120 everything works correctly, now I'm looking for a way to restore OTA Updates.(I will try to install the b183)
-With the b183 ota works, but not the keys / flash. I will try to downgrade to b120, than reupdate to b183 without wipe anything .
-b120 keys working, update to b183 and not working again, I try update ota oreo and search for a kernel.
-Almost everything resolved! After switching from the b183 to the b360, I reunlocked the Honor and installed the kernel with the fix to the capacitive keys. Relock the phone but the Google Logo appears at boot, even after installing the stock kernel.

If you were on oreo, it's normal the nougat service repair files don't work with dload.

To my knowledge, they are no oreo service repair firmware publicly available yet. So, for now, no flashing firmware with dload once on oreo.
You could use HWOTA8to8 or HWOTA8to7 or the translated russian TOOL from last febuary.

So, boot to fastboot and flash oreo twrp.
Then boot to twrp recovery like you would have done for booting to stock recovery.

Hi there
I think my phone is briked. I wantet to downgrade my phone to the 108 version becaus there was android auto working.
So i tried to flash the System.img from the 108 Software. I tried 2 different:
http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=ANE-lx1&firmware_page=0
and the Middle east from the thread here.
Id did flash over fastboot, but after every start the Build number was still on the 112 Firmware.
So i tried the Trebel ASOP, RR and LOS. ASOP Booted but had only forceclose on every service. RR and LOS did not work.
Then i tried to flash the ramdisk, recovery, vendor kernel etc from the update.app from the 108 Firmware. No my phone is briked.
I tried to flash eveyrthing from the .112 updateapp from the Official thread but nothing happend.
Then i tried to flash every possible .img file from the .112 app but most of them gave "Error Command not allowed"
So here i Am. Bootlooping phone and i dont know what else to do.
Since the beginning i could flash every system.img but it still was on the 112 Build and suddenly it bricked. I cant get to the 112 Version back with flashing system.img because it bootloops. Same for Treble and the newest 126 Version or the old 108 Build.
The only thing booting is ASOP Treble but i cant navigate coz of the 1000 of forceclosed errors.
I formated the userpartition as i was asked from Huawei, and bevore i did those installations i did a fullwipe with EMUI.
The Recovery cant connect to the server, and yeah.. i dont know what to do next. ofc i have unlocked bootloader. I bought the Phone in Switzerland with Dual Sim. ANE-LX1.
Does anyone have another idea?
Cheers
EDIT:
After 10000 billions klicks i managed to get through the treble wizzard, even when the com.android.phone has stopped is comming every second.
At the Moment im in the About Phone Screen and i see this: (I am in the newest ASOP Treble SU with gapps)
Model: ANE-LX1
Android Version 8.1
Baseband: unknown
Kernel Version 4.4.23+ (gcc version 4.9x 20150123 (prerelease) (GCC))
Fri Mar 9 09:51:47 CST 2018
Build Number ANE-LX1 8.0.0.112(c432) <------- WTF ?!?
I hope this informations is something to work with.
SIM CARD is not readable.
Edit2:
I connected it to HI SUit. It says my device running properly on the .112 Version (WTF i got Treble installed)
I cant connect anything. How the hell can i get rid of this ****ing wong Build number??
Same for Checking Updates. .112 should be newest (its not its 126) Any ideas?
Edit3:
Can only Flash with fastboot. Twrp cant mount the partitions. Trying to installing the zip or adb sideload gives me an error code or command not allowed :\
i think the best way is
download a FULL-Update for your build
https://forum.xda-developers.com/9-lite/help/huawei-honor-firmware-download-t3790327
read this https://forum.xda-developers.com/hon...flash-t3778085
if you understand and have the know how : good luck
with this way i have my Ho9L reflash to stock-rom
you have to know what you're doing
use Magisk (search inside xda the thread)
this work by me better as SuperSU (with less problem's)
use this twrp, it's work WITH encryption
ttps://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p20-lite/development/recovery-testing-t3783587
if you understand what i am write - you can reset your phone to "delivered-state" and beginning by zero (initial-setting's) and
what ever you flash - you have a chance to reset your phone
first look on bootloader-screen if
- bootloader unlocked
- FRP unlock
THIS is essential !
last tip: let the fingers from custom-rom if this not expressly build for OREO
OREO is other as NOUGAT ! very different !
Relock your bootloader before trying an Erecovery...
please try this :
- download full update rom for your device, extract the .APP files using HuaweiUpdateExtractor
- boot into fastboot by press and hold Volume Down and plug in usb cable into your pc and your phone, hold it until it boot into fastboot
- do this :
fastboot flash kernel kernel.img
fastboot flash ramdisk ramdisk.img
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdis.img
fastboot flash recovery_vbmeta recovery_vbmeta.img
fastboot flash recovery_vendor recovery_vendor.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
- reboot your device and hold Volume Up and Volume Down to get it boot into eRecovery and do Wipe Cache Partitions and then do Factory Data Reset, and reboot again
- let it boot normally, and see what happen next, i can't remember for sure because it's been so long i unbricked my Nova 2s with this method. there are 2 possibility, you'll boot into system normally, or it will boot into eRecovery again and there is an option Download Latest Version And Recovery and you can choose that, of course you should have connection to internet via wifi.
please report back if you have difficulties.

Hi there, if you have TWRP, you could flash system and vendor using TWRP. boot into TWRP, choose install, choose use image file, and flash system.img to system, and vendor.img to vendor.

if you could, please provide screenshot so i can see it more clearly.
after you flashing the rom, one thing you must do is to format the data and cache through emui erecovery, as long as you're not format the data and cache successfully, the rom will not works properly.

Hi,
this guide is two years old, if you want to recover your phone, download Service ROM from androidhost.ru website, and flash it using dload method .
Which EMUI version are you running? Your region is C605 ?

Correct, my region is 605. I already downloaded the latest version available for download on that page which is 8.1.
Before my phone went into brick, it had version 9.1
And bring those two update.app

For 9.1 you can download
https://androidhost.ru/2bCG
Unpack .zip archive , find dload file and simply transfer it to the SD card, without unpacking it! (instructions can be found in ReleaseDoc folder).
Turn off your phone and flash FW using three button combo.
Note: Service ROM L-29 contains both version - L-29 & L-09 .

I struggled so hard to download the file, and to my surprise it does not include the software version for the L-09, only for the L-29
Are there any risks if I try to install version 8.1?
Another thing, the Huawei p20 does not have a micro sd slot, I guess I should do it through a USB OTG?

Okay, I definitely don't get the 9.1 for Eml-09 for free.
So last query (I hope), what is less risky, install Rom 8.1 which is for my region and exact model, or install Rom 9.1 with my region but for model L-29 or install a Rom 9.1 for my model but with a different region?
Thank you for your support.

L29 EMUI 9.1 C605. Even if it succeeds the phone will not work correctly.
Most probably you will get the wrong model or in build number "system_0.46 (xxxx)" . HiSuite will not recognize your device (and no OTA update).
Hi,
Here is a long story of bricking my device, I wanted to downgrade my device from Oreo to Nougat, and somehow I installed wrong software, mine is RNE-L21 and after successful downgrade with this method:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3vqb8hPZIQ
version of software I installed: RNE-L21C461B153CUSTC461D001
my device was NEO-something, in settings it showed 3GB of RAM instead of 4GB, screen resolutution 1280x720 instead of fullHD and 32GB of internal memory instead of 64, so I wanted to change that.
This time I downloaded (not so sure about this now) proper version of firmware: RNE-L21C432B135CUSTC432D001, and used another method because previous method didnt work, link:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=76503686&postcount=46
the HuRUpdater scrpit worked fine, I booted up the device and nothing was changed, so I was like, well, ok then.
but then I noticed that my bootloader was locked, so I wanted to unlock it, and after typing the *fastboot oem unlock code* and selecting yes on my device, It rebooted and just stuck at the "Powered by andriod" logo.
I was trying to enter TWRP but id doesnt work, its stuck at the loading screen, I was unable to enter fastboot, but now I figured out that when I discharge it, I'm able to enter fastboot.
So now I'm stuck, I don't know what should I do.
I saw a guide for flashing .img files from UPDATE.APP, but that guide was for Oreo, and I've got diffrent .img files inside my Nougat UPDATE.APP so I don't want to risk:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-10/help/mate-10-lite-bricked-t3794236
sentavn said:
you should format by using fastboot. First download your stock ROM and extract with Huawei Firmware Extracter. Select UPDATE.APP and extract following files:
erecovery_kernel.img
erecovery_ramdisk.img
erecovery_vbmeta.img
cust.img
erecovery_vendor.img
kernel.img
ramdisk.img
recovery_vbmeta.img
recovery_vendor.img
system.img
Reboot your device in to fastboot mode (recovery mode) and flash those files one by one:
fastboot flash erecovery_kernel erecovery_kernel.img
...
fastboot flash system system.img
//
Erase your userdata space:
fastboot -w
//reboot
fastboot reboot
Now go to your stock recovery and do factory reset, wide cache.
Now your device back to stock OREO

Click to collapse
Any Ideas?
HOW I FIXED:
I downloaded this EMUI 5 Nougat, Thanks to bozka1:
https://androidhost.ru/5SZ
I extracted UPDATE.APP file using Huawei Update Extractor.
I was trying to flash everything via fastboot: BOOT.img, RECOVERY.img, RECOVERY2.img, CUST.img, SYSTEM.img but nothing helped me.
I found out what you can flash via fastboot here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/general/huawei-fastboot-commands-t3850123
There was no hope for me, so I tried to flash USERDATA.img
fastboot flash userdata USERDATA.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And then cmd promped something unusual:
target reported max download size of 471859200 bytes
sending 'userdata' (24576 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.646s]
writing 'userdata'...
(bootloader) success to erase cryypt info in oeminfo
OKAY [ 1.401s]
finished. total time: 2.049s
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Then I proceeded to flash: BOOT.img, RECOVERY.img, RECOVERY2.img and CACHE.img
I didn't flash SYSTEM.img because I flashed it before like 1500 times.
My phone didn't work yet so I used the DLOAD method because RECOVERY finally worked, so I shut down the device and used three buttons combo:
First holding Volume Up, Volume Down and then pressing Power Button.
There is a documentation in the firmware I downloaded, SDcard must be in exFAT format.
Thank You bozka1.

So I'll have to wait a little before I'll download Service ROM, my internet connection isn't the greatest, but I flashed Your TWRP and unfortunately it doesn't work;
If I hold the Power button and Volume Up - the same story as before, I see the loading TWRP screen and nothing happends,
If I let the device to boot up and then press only the Volume Up button - it says "Your device is booting up" and nothing happens.
By the way, what can happen when I'll use "fastboot flash recovery something.img" instead of recovery2?
EDIT:
I did some testing and Your TWRP doesn't boot at all on my device, I flashed another one, Catuva21 3.1.1 Nougat, and that is the one that I had before - it is booting but never loads.

TWRP will automatically overwrite Stock recovery, it's impossible to flash something from dload without Stock recovery .
Using command "recovery2" you will install TWRP over eRecovery .
Try flash Service ROM from SD card without TWRP & oeminfo flashing, but Im not sure... your system is heavily damaged and incomplete .

Alright, so did it just happened randomly or did you tried to do something with your phone? Did you unlocked bootloader or flashed custom recovery etc? You need to explain what happened, that's quite important if you want someone to help you.
I extended the given TWRP from s3tupw1zard ported by Thinhx2.
You can now use the adb root access while the TWRP booted and access your phone with mtp when it is not encrypted.
It is a self booting image now, means, this boot file only boot direct to TWRP.
NEVER flash this image direct to flash with fastboot flash boot, you cannot start android then, only TWRP.
Boot it, while your smartphone is in fastboot mode, with the command:
fastboot boot self_bootingTWRP323.img
Then you can do everything like in the flashable version of TWRP, only with the advantage that you are not security patch dependent and you don't need to modify your original system.
You can install all ZIP files, like Magisk or open-Gapps.
After reboot the smartphone starts normal from the boot partition inside the smartphone and twrp is gone.
Tested in 00EEA platform only but i guess it will also run on 00WW!
Lol, what's the difference between each of these 4 parts. No statement about it. Lack of info may confuse users.

Works perfectly. If you want to decrypt your Nokia 3.2 you will be needing to format your data partition using TWRP. But your device will be encrypted again (if you didn't do (perhaps) any backup or used commands like "adb push") once it booted up.
I tried it after unlocking bootloader but it just goes to black screen and nothing is happening, only solution is holding power button and it reboots normally. here's the command output:
