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.
Please read carefully it is different from other cases..
I just got my new phone and it is Honor 5x, I set it up normally as you do on any new phone before using it. I had not done anything else at this point but follow the directions given and the phone was behaving fine. There was a software update and I started it, but then when it went to reboot, it stayed frozen at the Honor logo screen. I have tried various things and looked everywhere. I tried going to the Emui menu and I tried the "factory reset" option and it got up to 15% before saying that it failed, forcing me to shut it down. No matter how many times I try to reboot the phone, it stays at that same logo screen. If I press the volume keys and the power button, it takes me to the download screen but does not pass 0 . I have tried to manually install the update by the use of an SD card. When I tried it after I mounted it on the card, it got to maybe 10% before saying the software update failed and forced me to shut the phone down again. When I tried recovering from the erecovery menu, after connecting to my wifi, it said it failed to get package info and again I had to shutdown the phone. I tried redownloading the update and doing it again incase it somehow downloaded wrong on my laptop but it still has done no change. The farthest I got was when I put the update on the SD card before it failed. I need a solution please help me it's been days and i havent found something yet

Well I have no idea how much experience you have with Honor phones but you do realize that their are no less than 6 varent of this phone
Are you sure your downloading the correct files for your model?
Are you using the dload/update.app method to update?
Did you unlock the bootloader?
Flash TWRP?

This is actually my first time with huawei devices but i made sure i downloaded the right firmware no result!!
Also unlocking the boot loader asks for stuffs such as build no device id etc but i dont know how to do this because the phone isnt booting up
About flashing twrp I have no idea what this is about but i think it also has something to do with unlocking bootloader which i am unable to do without getting the phone to boot to homepage
Thanks for d reply how else can you help me pls!!

i mean to say this see the attachment you see the second option that is the one to click and then it will ask to connect to wifi and then it will start downloading (aprox 10mins) and then install the latest firmware and recovery (be warned this will wipe your device and upgrade to latest version and you will lose root and twrp:good

@Lasisi list your phone model and the file your trying to use (a link)
Also list what software version you were on and what the update is listed as
are you putting the file update.app in a folder called dload on the ext_sdcard and rebooting to erecovery by shutting off the phone and then holding volume up and down and power all at the same time ?

I know your just trying to help, but those files are Very Old .. most likely his phone is already on android 6
you also don't know if he has C185 or C432
I think a "fastboot getvar all" from the bootloader should tell if he's on C185 or C432
then you need to download one of the 2 files above and use Huawei update extractor to pull the files from the Full update package for Android 6
and use those to try and recover the phone.

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.
for another reference, please refer to my other post here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/ma...0-pro-help-t3776050/post76916307#post76916307

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 .

So the phone would boot up the TWRP without pressing anything? Damn, I might have done that typo error... Do You know if I can restore the stock recovery from the UPDATE.APP file? I mean flash it

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.
Yes, Im stuck. Im on realme 5i and I flashed PixelExperience+ with TWRP, clean flash, made sure to wipe data and clear cache before and after flashing. I rebooted and boom, stuck on fastboot/bootloader. I can't go back to recovery mode or to system, it just takes me back to fastboot/bootloader. I backed up my files btw.
Supposed fixes that did not work:
1: Fastboot erase boot && fastboot erase dtbo && fastboot erase recovery && fastboot erase vbmeta && fastboot erase system && fastboot erase userdata and fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img && fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img && fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img && fastboot reboot-bootloader.
- it brings me back to fastboot when I try to go to recovery mode.
2: Push volume down/up and power button.
- it brings me back to fastboot when I try to go to recovery mode. (2)
3: flash stock recovery (I can't go to recovery so I cant flash stock ROM too)
- it brings me back to fastboot when I try to go to recovery mode. (3)
What else do I do? Am I missing something from the fixes I've tried above?? I am in need of urgent help.
Update: I've tried realme flash tool, for stock ROM and it says cannot find central directory.
I've tried putting the ofp to AppData/Roaming/flashtool/temp as said from another thread. I've also tried running in administrator but none work. I've ran out of luck today, please help.
Phone: Realme 5i
Story: I had my phone get a custom recovery, TWRP. Got it rooted. Before I rooted it I rolledback to android 9, ColorOS, bw. Then decided why not use a custom ROM? So I did. PixelExperiencePlusEdition ANDROID 12. I flashed it with TWRP, factory reset and cleared cache, in other words, clean flash. I'm hopeless cause once I rebooted, I got sent to fastboot then when I tried to go to recovery mode, it sends me back to fastboot! What do I do? I need help. please.
Update: So maybe I am doing the 1st method wrong. I got all the img files wrong, cause I need them from my stock firmware right? So I tried programs to extract those img from their new.dat.br files right? I did and the extractors keep giving me something is missing, line this and that is incorrect or something like that. I'm really hopeless. Can someone give me the img files of RMX2030EX_11_OTA_0210_all_1hZhuZlgVC1t? system.img, boot.img, vendor.img, vbmeta.img, dtbo.img? What else am I missing to manually flash it?
I am facing the same issue as well, I had downloaded the RMX2030EX_11_C.75_210917_1b9832bb file and extracted using https://github.com/bkerler/oppo_decrypt but the first method still didn't work. was is the wrong file? or did the decryptor didn't work properly idk.

I can't find a file on realme software page with this name where did you get the file? plus does your variant has Qualcomm or Mediatek CPU? I saw a video where it stated that this phone has two variants one with Qualcomm and other with Mediatek(Helio) CPU.
Edit: Do an MD5 check maybe your file got corrupt..
I managed to fix, you will need download these files from telegram. one of them should work for me the ColorOS file worked. Follow the instruction given in the readme file and that should do. I am installing DotOS now it showing the splash animation from last 5 minutes, if it works i'll update the comment or will provide further instructions to fix.
FastbootFix-Realme-5-5i-5s~RUI.zip
FastbootFix-Realme-5i~Color OS.zip
Edit: the reason it was taking so long to bootup and was stuck on splash animation is that I forgot to format (type yes).

I got it from this:
This is what I used to rollback to android 9 cause another video said I had to do this first before rooting. It worked though then custom ROM happened and now phone's bricked. Hasn't been used ever since.
I'll do MD5 if your fix didn't work.
Hey um, Im a turtle and Im reading the .txt from the link you gave the color os one specifically. So Im at the step where I have to Double Click "Open This to Proceed" file to start the process. What is this "Open This to Proceed" exactly?
Edit: Never mind. I should've looked more before asking..
IT WORKED!!!!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH! YOU'RE A LIFESAVER!

Now if you want to flash the stock rom you will have to flash firmware first.
flash fw c.xx
wipe 5
flash rom
flash vbmeta disabler
format (type yes)
reboot
You can download the firmware file form here. https://github.com/realme-trinket-organization/firmware_files_RMX1911/releases and the vbmeta disabler from here. https://t.me/r5notes/52

Upon flashing the firmware zip, my phone keeps getting stuck on bootloop, it doesnt even let me go to recovery mode. It keeps restarting too?
Edit: is this normal??
The tool you gave me to fix fastboot doesnt work anymore :<

I only got to step one which you said to get firmware and flash it. I flashed it and my phone rebooted but it keeps restarting. I can still flash images but I cant seem to fix this "reboot loop" and the tool you gave doesnt fix it either. What Im guessing is C73 isnt my firmware version since this phone is years old? Do you know how to delete the firmware so maybe the tool you gave me would work again and I can start over once more?
Edit: Im once again stuck in fastboot btw.
Edit: I fixed the rebooting loop with the stock recovery.bat from the file you gave me but when I do the "open this to proceed" it goes back to rebooting automatically. I still want to remove the C73 firmware though.
