It's OTA, you need to efit updater-script before flashing from TWRP. And for all variants of k6 device, OTA file is same.
For further guild kindly join our telegram group. Thanks.

You must be on unmodified (non rooted) stock s223 if trying to flash s227.
Or you must do clean flash if trying to flash s223.

How to install stock rom over ressurection remix?

Can I flash through custom rom?

I had successfully installed s223 version on my k6 power, and I also updated it to s229 version with the stock recovery. Will I get the warranty back?? Please reply.

Not able to unbrick my device, stuck in bootlooder
I during flashing customer ROM thro' fastboot mode . i have ended up with problem with my device. i am not able to unbrick the handset. Pls gid. I have tried multiple methods to unbrick:crying: it.
:crying:

now i'm in s227 and i get s231 update but it not installing is stock recovery and also trying with twrp too
any help

why would someone have twrp on his device without root ?
i have K53 karatep .. Official S224 rom .. secureboot = 0 .. not encrypted .. i mean i modified the boot.img before flashing .. i have twrp and magisk installed .. i tried to install the ota zip update file .. i changed the script lines .. i tried a lot of things .. they all failed haha The only way is to have a full S229 rom so i can edit the boot.img file again and flash it back on my device and sincerely between S218 and S224 there are a lot of bug fixes .. i suppose the S229 have also more bug fixes ..
i didnt like the lineageos rom or any other custom roms for the karatep honestly ..

Is there any way to install latest complete Stock ROM using TWRP? (not small updates)
Because I'm on Custom ROM, I want to use stock ROM again.
Need help.
Also new update also available.

Yep. The stockstock recovery is different for each build. If you flash a G4 Stock recovery on a H3 firmware. It WILL flash and you'll be back to to clear data and factory reset too but you won't be able to flash OTA updates. Cause for that, you need the specific stock recovery for your current build.
Please provide the installation guide.
I am on stock NH3 but don't know how to extract stock recovery image. If guided, I can help.

brother you will hav to first root the set up an sdk on your computer then using adb commands you can get the stock boot image out(busy box should be installed on your device)

now i see 1 problem, how can we extract the stock recovery in kitkat, coz we need to flash the CWM or TWRP recovery first before we can root the device. i don't see any other method how to root our device without flashing first a custom recovery.

by flashing a prerooted ROM through odin or using CF-AUTOROOT..
I like the TWRP.. i dont have seen other problem Except that I BACK UP my ROM using S5 PORT ROM. After backing up., i installed the CM11 latest version, after an hour i RESTORE the S5 port rom that i had BACK-UP. But i cannot RESTORE it because it does not appear. What i need is COPY the BACK-UP from EXT-SD CARD to SD-CARD then RESTORE it. Is that the bug or that's the way of restoring it?
REQUEST..
sir Ali.Filth and Techmate98 can we request a FLASHABLE TWRP directly via CWM.. thank you sir. MORE POWER..
Android-secure partition
Is android-secure partition not available in our device or that TWRP 2.7 doesn't have that option? Because many apps in SdCard and when is not option to backup android-secure when restore the backup I don't have apps that in sdcard anymore. need to install that apps again. :crying:
thus this recovery work for K1 stock firmware.

unknown issue
I successfully flashed s223 version. After flashing, it automatically removed TWRP and flashed the stock recovery. After flashing s223, I got an OTA update of s229 of 76mb. I downloaded the update and tried to install it through the Stock recovery, but it shows update not installed, it simply fails. But when I turn ON the phone it shows that System update is successfully updated on the Notification panel. It shows, it fails while updating through the Stock recovery but it shows that it was successfully updated on the Notification panel. What is the issue?? Please tell me.
ota update from s223 to s229 is not successful.
Thank you friend.
The initial update from 6.0.1 to 7.0 (s223) is successful using this method. But then, update from s223 to s229 is not successful when i tried the same way. I mean, i just opened the updater-script and then removed the lines as mentioned. But it didn't work out and i am getting the attached error (Error 7). Also my recovery is still on twrp after flashing the s223. I am not sure if there is any other way to get the OTAs installed without errors. Please help.

[Solved] B183, Twrp and root whithout lose navigation button and Camera Flash?

Hi, i have new honor 9, as i open the phone , it is upgrade to B183 Version.
i need to automatic call recorder and i have found a zip.file to flash whit twrp. So i want install twrp and root...
The first time i download TWRP 3.1.1-1 and Supersu 2,82, i install all whit my zip file per automatic call recorder...
all is ok, twrp, i have root and call recorder working,,, but...
I lose navigation buttons and Camera Flash.
for navigation buttons isnt a problem... i can use only Home button ( i had a Meizu phone before but...
I need camera flash ! it have to work.
so....
for have again all working , i used the Rebrand Guide of HWOTA, whit B120 all work again.
cannot have more OTA upgraded but i think because i just had download them whit my imei.... ok i will wait new update for verifyng it.
I can use Finder Firmware Huawey for have manual upgrade.
Now i'm again in b183.
how can I do now for have a valid twrp or valid method for root phone? Because i read that same people have them..... but i think have reroll to b120 almost 50 time whithout always same results....
oh oh, i see now that i have wrong section. moderator can you move?
SOLVED!
After many time i can have all working now:
Starting to B183 firmware whit button and flash not working:
Step 1) Rollback on B120, downgrading by flashing with hwota scripts, this post . option are 2 (directory upgrade) and 1 (same brand). with this you will have working buttons
Step 2) Update to B183 (FF full-ota files timestamped 2017.12.28)
Step 3) Unlock the bootloader.
Step 4) Install the TWRP-3.1.1.1_120_130_170.img from this thread.
Step 5) Install Supersu SR5
WARNING: you have to be carefull when go in TWRP recovery: do not modify system data at twrp's boot, then rebooted choosing not to install twrp at twrp's exit prompt. ( dont'know if it is important... but so it work
so you will have a b183 firmware whit all working: root, button and flash.
please, reply if this work for you.
Add more infos about FF .
In updater system , no update available after roolback to B120.
Need to use Firmware Finder Huawei on Playstore.
1-Choose the desired full version
2-Check Firmware access for be sure not make mistakes.
3-Get an update throught DNs , register update and change Dns .
4- Come back to updater and check update .

In this step, did you do it with the HWOTA tool or with fully stock B120 inside the system?

While on stock B120 use the android application Huawei Firmware Finder to upgrade:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/tools/general/huawei-firmware-finder-team-mt-t3469146/amp/
But you could try to test to use HWOTA to upgrade from b120 to b183 and then report here?
I already tried upgrading to B182/183 with HWOTA. I was on B120 and did a B182 and B183 upgrade. I was left with no capacitive keys and no flash. Camera was working however.
Just right now downloading B183 on top of a new locked B120 with the Firmware Finder, will report back.
However, it's very inconvenient to update the system this way if you have an unlocked bootloader and are rooted. I mean, downgrade to B120, twice within HWOTA, upgrade within the system and then AGAIN re-unlock the bootloader which results in a factory reset - come on...
Does it also work with Magisk or only with SuperSu?
SuperSu already is nice, but the additional benefits like would be nice to have, especially passing SafetyNet.
Anyone still with missing navigation buttons? I might have a solution that does not require flashing firmware or doing factory reset

Mind telling us?
For me everything worked fine by downgrading to B120 and then updating B183 through the OS.

Seems the problem is that the touch_key firmware is not flashed properly. I modified the TWRP recovery to include the firmware. After I rebooted once into the custom TWRP the buttons worked again.

Installing newest stock on rooted honor 9

Hi guys,
Probably been discussed before, but I couldn't find all the answers I need.
I have honor 9 STF-L09, version STF-L09C432B100.
The phone bootloader is unlocked, rooted and have TWRP recovery.
Sorry for the muiltiple questions.....
I want to update it to the latest stock ROM (I have no problem wiping the memory).
I thought about using HuRUpdater tool, is that the best method?
I couldn't find a 'Global' ROM version, which should I choose?
Will I have to do incremental update with this tool?
Do I must change the recovery to this one? is there a better version? Do I need the capacitive touch fix (I didn't have any problem with capacitive touch).
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you
They 're no public nougat proper recovery working with HuRUpdater. The one you linked is for oreo.
So i guess you'll have to :
- flash back STF-L09C432B100 stock recovery
- then update tje normal way to oreo via OTA
- if not getting OTA, you could force it with android apps 'Firmware Finder' to update to STF-L09C432B183. Then you should finally got the normal OTA update to STF-L09C432B364.
This process should not mess with your flashlight or caoacitives buttons.

I am already on B100 and its recovery.
Since I'm rotted with TWRP I can't get OTAs (I do but it doesn't work)

Can you please elaborate, I have no idea what you're talking about and how do I force OTA?

I think "tje" is just "the" . I think you have to start with clean device : stock rom ( in this case stock recovery too : flash back STF-L09C432B100 stock recovery ) and update with Firmware Finder, to 183 first, 364 after.
ADD : for me, just my way, don't hurt me if I'm wrong : ) I open FF, select correct rom , hit button " get an update trough dns " " auto", go to parametre / update , system find the update, go back to FF, close it, update still DL, sometimes , when finish , update can't start, so I reboot my device, return to parametre / update and it's ok.

twrp is a custom recovery and you need to have a stock recovery for OTA update to work.
So : 'flash back STF-L09C432B100 STOCK recovery'
You could get it by using windows app 'Huawei Update Extractor' on the file 'Update.app' included inside the firmware file 'update.zip' 's STF-L09C432B100.
Don't mind your root access: you'll loose it during the update.

Because you state that you're getting the OTA notifications : You won't have to FORCE them. So don't bother.

So you're saying I need to extract the stock recovery and flash it using fastboot. /then I will update normaly via OT to the latest version.
Then I need to re-root and reinstall the custom recovery.
Did I understand you correctly?
Where can I find the STF-L09C432B100 firmware?
Many thanks
Yes.
Yes.
Yes. https://yadi.sk/d/Y2yuM--73Lb9Kk/update.zip
It's C432B120 but its stock recovery is the same as B100.
Thank you all.
I flashed the stock recovery and managed to OTA update all the way to the most recent version.
Now I need to find which custom recovery is appropriate for new version

Thanks. I did that, it works
I already asked in the post you linked. bit do you knwo what's the difference between "fastboot flash recovery" and "fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk"?
I did as instructed in the OP ("fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk"), but I can't load TWRP from power off using power button + down button.
TWRP does load when using "adb reboot recovery_ramdisk". Is that the reason?

LOL, my bad. Thanks
Hey everyone,
last month I unlocked and rooted my phone, then used this tool to put on the newest firmware (at the time 366). Now, I'd like to update to the newest firmware (368). Is there anything special I need to do or can I just dirty flash it per see? Do I use the FullOTA-MF files or the OTA-MF files?
Thanks in advance for your help.

How To Guide OTA Update process for rooted nord 2 : Any incremental Thread update Latest Feb 2022

Hi guys so Many users are facing issue while they are rooted and twrp installed on there phone.
They can't able to Flash update through stock settings OR via twrp if they tries to flash it via twrp manually facing no wifi and Bluetooth.
So here is the process to flash any incremental update via twrp just we need update zip, vbmeta image and boot image of old oos version respective to your new update means if. We are upgrading to V11 we need V10 boot img
U can use following commands to extract your current stock boot img after connecting to PC
adb shell
dd if=/dev/block/sdc49 of=/sdcard/boot.img
exit
Note: Remember this process will replace your twrp and removes root to gain root access. We need to repeat twrp installation shown in the following tutorial

good Instructions! Reboot after flashing boot.img isnt necessary. OTA Update zip can be downloaded within OTA App in Settings (do not press reboot). After downloading you can reboot to TWRP and the file location is: /data/OTA-package/update.zip.

Yes but I don't want to go to automatic reboot and flashing process of OTA Update installation after download which may cause some issues for new users.
The old boot.img I image is the stock one not rooted right? How can you extract it from your firmware if you're not rooted? From the Nandroid backup maybe?
Edit, found out: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/how-to-extract-your-boot-img-from-any-rom-adb.3760210/ Just had to google it
Don't wo

Thx. OK I do that.
Magisk is installed (patched) to boot image so after OTA and Vbmeta I flash Magisk to keep root.

Do the boot.img files in the original post only work on the Indian variant? Where can I get the A11 boot.img for the European variant if I want to update to A12?

Still trying to wrap my head around this (although updating worked fine from A11 to A12 on my EEA variant, thanks @pankspoo!).
Can I actually extract a stock boot.img from a Magisk-rooted phone? Is it stock (in which case why is root removed by the update.zip) or is it modified (in which case, why can I extract it as stock)?

You can use those adb commands while booted in TWRP, without being rooted. So you'll extract the stock boot image
