I Unlocked the bootloader 3 days ago and flashed Cyanogenmod 12.1 with exact gapps and was able to use the phone perfectly ,today I searched for xposed and found that it could be only installed by manual flashing for android lollipop , so I downloaded the zip file and rebooted my phone in Recovery Mode [ TWRP ] and flashed the zip file just after that the phone stuck at bootloop. Restarted the phone 3 time's but no luck so finally I got into bootloader by pressing the volume down button and the power button and opened recovery mode to factory reset the phone and reflashed the CM 12.1 with gapps , now the problem begin's when I restarted the phone it is stuck at "Warning Bootloader Unlocked" and even the recovery mode is stuck at beginning screen of twrp , Im only able to use the bootloader . Even tried to reflash TWRP Recovery from computer but thier's no change it is still stuck at the recovery screen .
Any help would be really appreciated
try reflashing and then wiping cache's before rebooting ?
like the regular cache and dalvik cache.
also don't expect the first boot to work quick.. leave it for a long time...
good luck.
Actully the problem is , when i try to open recovery mode it stucks at teamwin logo (twrp)
"I searched for xposed and found that it could be only installed by manual flashing for android lollipop"

that quote is confusing.. what did you mean exactly.
What TWRP ? From Where + what version # ?
If i were you i would re-download it then MD5 hash it.. verify it !
I always check the md5 hashes on any phone roms or firmware etc.
I have had tons of incomplete downloads and there is nothing wrong with my internet connection either.
The more detailed you can be the more likely someone can help.
Once you are positive your TWRP is downloaded properly if i were you
i would re-flash it with fastboot. (if you can)
Can you power off the phone and put it in bootloader mode then connect to pc ?
power it off then hold volume down + power then plug in USB
then right click the empty space in the windows folder (assuming no Linux)
select open command prompt here then type:
adb devices
Is it listed ?
I also assumed you have "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" installed.
Sounds like you flashed a 5.1 firmware package ?
yes ? which one ?
And watch out many sites have cut off my download on me while downloading them.
and if you then flashed a half completed download you could prob damage the phone.
for checking hashes on windows i use HashSlash.. it's clean / free and has a GUI ..google it
Basically , first I flashed Android 5.1.1 AOSP for my device and then Cyanogenmod 12.1 Nightly Surnia . and yes I tried to reflash TWRP Recovery but it is stuck at the same Teamwin Logo screen , and i flashed the latest version of twrp which was available on xda . Can you provide me worth some kind of image file which I can flash to Factory reset my device from computer or anything else which can help.
And by the way Thanks for the quick reply

i used that.. but didn't flash my phone yet.
that is all firmware packages stock for Moto-2015
You still have not mentioned a lot like where did you get TWRP and what version ?
What carrier is your phone ?
I take it you unlocked the bootloader or did you get it like that ?
I'm guessing the bootloader loads TWRP
so either of those is probably damaged i bet.
I would try and get it stock then work from there getting TWRP back on and rooting etc.
What i was trying to ask you is..
Was your phone on 5.02 and you tried to update it to v5.1 ?
Because i have seen other people here who had problems with that.
Relocking the bootloader can cause problems and so can reverting to an old ver from 5.1 to 5.02
I used a custom kernel and TWRP from Squid here on the forum and rooted
and his kernel is only good for me up to version 5 but he has way newer versions out..
but they are only for users who updated to 5.1
So you have to be VERY careful what your doing.
I might have screwed up my phone if i didn't notice the fine print.
Also just search the forum for some guides on flashing firmware
and verify the downloads
My Bootloader is unlocked , TWRP Recovery Version 2.8.6.0 . My phone was on Android 5.0.2 [ Official Non Rooted ] , so I thought of updating it to 5.1.1 which was available as custom rom So I unlocked the bootloader flashed TWRP version 2.8.6.0 by copying Recovery.img in minimal adb folder and oped CMD and flashed the custom recory and it was no problem , then 2 days ago I flashed Cyanogenmod.12.1.Surnia.20150829.zip and it worked fine no issues then I flashed Xposed Modular in recovery mode , now when I tried to restart the system it stuck at bootloop so I entered Bootloader and again restarted 2, 3 times but no luck so I again entered bootloader and entered Recovery Mode ( TWRP 2.8.6.0) and wiped all my data , But unfortunately I was outside so I dint had the firmware and gapps so I switched the phone off in hope that ill flash the firmware and gapps when i reach back home . So when I vame back home and pasted the firmware and gapps in memory card and inserted it baxk in the phone and tried to enter recovery mode , that was the first time when I experied That teamwork logo stuck at recover mode and the further story you laready know
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

Just use B380 as it's the latest full firmware available there.
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.
This afternoon I installed LineageOS and all was well with the world. I then installed TWRP as I wanted to install Magisk and the EMUI camera. However, it then started bootlooping and nothing I've tried seems to be working.
I can get into Fastboot and it lets me flash stuff, but nothing boots. I tried the unbricking guide as well, but none of the three files work - I get a "No space left on device" error for each of the files.
If anyone can provide me with an idiot's guide to sorting this I'll be massively grateful.

Hi, look at this perhaps it can help you
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ma...e-10-flash-oreo-update-package-t3716814/page3
I had used that guide, was following that when I was getting the out of space errors.
However, I got it all sorted in the end - I just downloaded a different (older) version of the firmware and that worked.
Help for you

Hi good day.
I have been following your work from another page, and now in XDA.
I had not read your message, and, I changed the recovery for the stock, and, I was an idiot to close the bootloader.
What happened? Brick simple on my cell phone, did not come out (because I fixed it) of the image of erecovery (EMUI) without tabs or options, a rather rare image.
How do I solve it:
1. I did not enter fastboot, I did not correctly enter the stock recovery (I had deleted the twrp), I had closed the bootloader (my stupidity)
2. Be patient and wait for the battery to run out (wait a day for it).
3. Open cmd and place the command to open the bootloader (fastboot oem unlock) and execute.
4. Put the device in fastboot mode when connecting to the laptop (I did not work several times, the fastboot came out with error FUNC No 10 and NO 2), after numerous attempts and not to let it charge the battery too much (because it was restarted and towards brick in the EMUI logo), correctly enter the fastboot and unlock, when you enter step 3 automatically, it will be executed. I had an advance in removing the cell phone from the brick.
5. It reboots and wonderfully happened to the Rom (that had previously installed), that is to say, the erase was not executed when the bootloader had previously closed.
6. As I had little energy, it was turned off, but I connected it and entered charging mode without restarting (before I did it).
7. Wait for a load of at least 5%, and install the Catuva21 TWRP from the tutorial.
8. I put it by command to restart in fastboot, but I generate error (Error Func No 10 and No 2).
9. I turn off the cell phone and with volume up and power key
10. Enter the TWRP correctly, verify that it is installed.
11. Restart system and log in to the system. I had not deleted anything, but to avoid problems, I hope to load 55% and execute the steps to install the rom.
12. Enjoy and dry spilled tears.
Experience lived and I hope you do not do something that developers do not advise.
Grcias and happy day.
Hi all,
Although my device isn't Mate 9 (mine is Nova 2s a.k.a HWI-AL00), but i'll share my experiece here.
Since EMUI8.0 Oreo, it's becoming more and more tough to get back to oreo stock after you mess/brick your device, maybe that's why HW plan to shutdown their bootloader unlock page.
Couple days ago, i got bored with my Nova 2s stock, and try to mess around to get root.
After flashing twrp (of course my bootloader is unlocked) and using modded rom which already contains magisk, i decided i want to go back to stock again, since the modded rom is not good to use.
This is where all the hassle began...
Maybe my most stupid move was, i formatted all partitions listed in twrp (so many partitions i can't remember).
After few days crying and try to find solutions, today i get to the point where it can download the rom package from HW ERecovery interface.
What i'm doing :
- download full package rom, extract the zip, and extract the *.app file using HuaweiUpdateExtractor, now you can see many *.img's there
- enter fastboot and flash twrp and boot into twrp
- flash these images : system.img into system partition, vendor.img into vendor partition
- exit twrp and get into fastboot again
- fastboot flash these images : kernel.img into kernel partition, ramdisk.img into ramdisk partition, recovery_ramdis.img into recovery_ramdisk partition
- shutdown device and let it boot normally
- it boot into HW eRecovery, and there's a menu to download rom full update package from server, i choose those menu (to download it, you must connect the device to wifi connection)
now i'm still waiting for the result, hopefully when the download finished, it can flash those packages nicely, i'll update the information to you guys later.

Hi all,
please find attached the Havoc OS 3.8 custom ROM, Olivelite version, and Magisk 20.4 which you will need for installation also.
I am neither the creator of this ROM or anyhow involved with the team, nor do I take any responsibility for everything which might go wrong during installation.
How I got it to work:
1. Unlock your boot loader (you will find appropriate instructions here in the forum and elsewhere on the web, also on YouTube).
2. Ensure that you have the XiaoMi Flash tool and the latest stock rom available, to be able to recover you phone when you encounter issues.
Both can be found on the Xiaomi website.
3. Get the "minimal ADB and Fastboot" tools. You will find in the web.
4. Get TWRP (you will find out what this is and why you need it here in the forum). Take care that it is a version for your phone model, else worst case it will not work.
5. Put the attached files to an external SD card in your phone.
6. install TWRP. Boot into "Fastboot" mode and install TWRP with command "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img".
7. Boot into recovery mode - if yoiu did everything right, should be TWRP now
7a. Wipe - Format data - confirm with "Yes", then go back to main menu
7b. Wipe - advanced wipe - select all except the last 2 (expecially NOT "external SD" if you put your files on there),
go back to main menu
7c. Install - select location where you've put the "havoc 3.8 update.zip" and select the file, afterwards wipe Cache / Dalvik (TWRP will give you this option after install), DO NOT REBOOT
7d. Install - select location where you've put the "magisk v20.4.zip" and select the file, afterwards wipe Cache / Dalvik and then reboot to system.
Now, hopefully, congratulations and enjoy
If something happens and it will not work at all, search the web first for solutions and, if still does not work and you do not get along with it, do not worry. You can always go back to the Xiaomi original ROM with the XiaoMi Flash Tool. Phone must be in "Fastboot" mode for this. In the flash tool, select your ROM location (ideally in the root of your drive as this tool cannot interpret spaces in paths), then confirm and ensure that you have ticked "Clean all" in the bottom, NOT "clean all and lock" - else you will have to do the unlock procedure again.
Sometimes, you need the "permissiver v5.zip" which you will find on the web. In case the above does not work, you can try to install the Permissiver. I never needed it, and I'm using 2 Redmi Olivelite.
I just tried this and had a success message from TWRP about the Havoc 3.8 flash but the Majisk file had an error from within TWRP first time & then it installed after reboot. But I still go straight into TWRP after rebooting.
Right now I have TWRP on the device & a micro SD card to get files onto the device but no OS on it & no backup as one way or another I want a ROOTed OS & it was the Chinese version when I got the phone so useless to me anyway.
What's the best approach from here to get this thing running again?
Thanks!!! Thanks!!! Thanks!!! after trying to get a GSI rom run on my daugthers olivelite i finally got a new rom working. I don't know why last guides didn'twork for me actually a recently requested a boot.img patch but i managed to patch it myself after dealing with python. Now will try to update it to 3.12 i suppouse it iwll have many improvements. But this worked right out of the box for me. Just followed each step and good to go.
For anyone interested. its de 2Gb/32Gb Global Version. with 12.0.3 latest MIUI updated applied trough fastboot. I used OFOX to test it and it worked fine by now.
If you have guide to update HAVOC please point me in the right direction.
Thanks again
I got off .Havoc precisely because it did not have voLTE support & BT HS 's didn't work. Has anyone had any luck on these 2
I absolutely thank you for this rom, I can now miraculously play Asphalt 9 on high settings at 30ish fps while on miui it struggled on lowest settings, the UI is flawless but I only have one problem I can't send nor receive SMS and the phone sometimes reboots randomly but that cannot make me go back to miui since it's too heavy for my phone.
IS THERE any fix for not being able to receive or send SMS
I have a black screen [FIxed by installing OrangeFox recovery]
