The stock recoveries are towards the bottom of the post. You can use Rashr or flashify from play store to flash. I prefer Rashr personally.
I just noticed you said l21. Sorry these are for l24

your phone must also pass the system partition check
you need an untouched system.img so you can revert to stock
If you want to avoid all this in the future it's quite simple
before doing anything to your phone with the phone turned off
plug phone into PC / hold volume down + power to enter the bootloader
from the PC command prompt use
fastboot boot TWRP.img
after it boots go to Backup and backup
Boot
Recovery
system (not system.img)
cust
oeminfo
efs1
efs2
firmware
modem
Save this backup to your PC so you can restore it for the next OTA update
Note: when restoring for the update only restore Boot / Recovery / System
the rest of the files are just in case something happens to your phone and you need them.

Hi, if I install TWRP and then do a complete backup will it backup my stock recovery as well or is there another way to backup the stock recovery?
P.S. I already have the backup of L22- B340 and when restored it doesn't get back to stock recovery. I'm completely clueless about how to extract the stock recovery.

to make more clarity..
now am having stock rom EMUI 3.1 on KIW-L21C185 B140 (middle east variant) with stock recovery and root enabled.
previously using TWRP as recovery. never installed custom rom.
despite using stock recovery and stock rom, ota update failed during update (failure happens 25-30%)
i dont have an untouched system image for KIW-L21C185 B140 (middle east variant), if flashing this with TWRP solve the issue please provide link.
TWRP backup need to done after only update right?
what if i install "stock rom + stock recovery" using twrp? if it will be working please provide file link.
not sure both are same. used to do this way on samsung s2.
ps : while in recovery mode after failed ota update failure it asked for a recovery update. and recovery update is also failed due to some failure to gather information. sorry for missing the exact reason for recovery update failure. stock recovery installed from the file you provided.

no you boot recovery.img so you can backup stock recovery
your backup was done after TWRP was flashed ... stock recovery is overwritten when you Flash TWRP
Their is a collection of Stock recovery's in the File Depot. If you have one that's not in the list please share it with the others

Unroot, do a factory reset and try to apply update again.
If that does not work, you can always try a force update.

Hi,
I want to install twrp in my 5x l24 us version. I read some threads here at XDA about twrp and rooting of honor 5x. But I am not sure where to start. I am hoping that someone here can guide me a little. I currently have emui 4.0 with marshmallow official from huawei.
My questions are:
1. Should I make nan droid backup of my phone before proceeding to install twrp? I am not sure what exactly is nan droid backup.
2. Is there any risk of device being bricked during the installation of twrp?
3. I read a thread named twrp for l24 l22 l23 and so on.. Does this method work anymore? Because I see users complaining about some twrp issues.
4. What are the safety measures I should do before doing any rooting, flashing?
Note - I don't do much rooting or flashing stuff that's why I am asking here. Thank you in advance

It's all already answered, but OK.
0. You must unlock your bootloader before any of those,
1. you can try just booting into TWRP (fastboot boot recovery.img) and try backing up everything from there. I'm not sure that one works, I simply flashed TWPR and continued backing up from there,
2. No way you can brick it if you go by instructions; follow simple instructions from TWRP thread == recovery flash without issues. This device is flash-friendly
3. This one? That would be an official TWRP thread, so... it works, my L21 is on latest 3.1.1 build.
4. Always have a backup and don't flash anything you're not sure it will work and that's it. So, you've freshly flashed TWRP, first thing would be to make a system backup, that way, if anything goes wrong with rooting or custom ROMs, you can always go back to stock one without hastle.
Hope that helped.

Um, you did a clean install? I see you're from Germany, so I guess you're using KIW-L21 model, which is fully compatible with all ROMs out there (and it still didn't receive VoLTE update if I'm not wrong). Try clearing everything and flashing again, if not, restore stock recovery via fastboot and do a emergency reflash of full EMUI firmware.

Yes I did a clean install with Aosp Rom, LineageOS, Ressurection remix, XenonHD Rom but every Rom encpountered a bootloop where the animation ran for 10 seconds and then stopped. After that the phone rebooted and so on . And do you have a link for flashable L21 EMUI stock rom? And stock firmware only installable with stock recovery or TWRP?
I also encountered this situation, how to solve, help me! Thank you

Can u explain what u did clearly ?
I have been sitting here all day searching on xda. I have the L24 running a nougat custom rom, went to flash an update for twrp, rebooted, no twrp, now i get the "download EMUI recovery" message. I am at a loss what to do, searched and searched, can someone point me to a thread I am not finding? I thought I could just reinstall twrp via fastboot but for some reason i get no response via command window on pc when phones connected. I have never had to post on here asking for assistance am hoping I did so correctly.
Just download the full firmware for your model and flash via dload. If you have not heard of this, there is a quick guide in my signature for dload method. Good luck. Let me know in case need more help
Thanks, I ended up reflashing Twrp via fastboot.

Desperate help needed to go back to stock (Mate 10 Pro EMUI 8 TWRP & MAGISK) BLA-L09
Hello there. I'm used to Samsung devices and the more I read about Huawei devices the more lost I feel about them.
So, my Mate 10 pro BLA-L09 is currently running Build Number 8.0.0.131(C782). It is rooted with Pretoriano's TWRP and Magisk (Using the All-In-One tool). Of course, I can't get any pending update installed. I would like to receive that EMUI 9 update. I've read people have been successful using HuRupdater and some others ended up with a hard bricked device. Some other people suggest the safest option is to uninstall Magisk, flash stock recovery and let the phone update itself.
So far, I've downloaded the same full 8.0.0.131(C782) firmware I'm on from Firmware Finder and downloaded Huawei Update extractor to extract the recovery from UPDATE.APP. However, instead of having one recovery file to extract, there are 3 Recoveries (named: RECOVERY_RAMDIS, RECOVERY_VBMETA, RECOVERY_VENDOR) and another 4 E-Recoveries.
Can anyone please give me some step by step guidance on what to do? I'll Paypal you a beer if I'm successful with the help.
Cheers!
May be you can simply dload the firmware and then it should be full stock if dload works. Dload guide is given in my signature

Dload replaces your twrp and custom boot both. It will bring back your phone to full stock. Else you could extract the images from your firmware and then flash. Let me give you the commands.
Thanks! I just fixed my issue by flashing this through TWRP: it Installs the Oreo stock recovery.
The procedure was:
-Booted into TWRP
-Uninstalled Magisk (by flashing Magisk Uninstall Zip)
-Flashed the stock recovery (from the link below) through TWRP
-Reboot
-Check for system updates, phone will install them with no problems
Phone will be unrooted and will have stock recovery. Don't know if this will work for every stock build, it worked with mine 8.0.0.131(C782).

I was getting the command ready for you. Glad you fixed it yourself
[*]Run the command to boot to fastboot
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
[*]On fastboot screen, you will have bootloader state as Unlocked and FRP Unlocked.
[*]Flash the stock Recovery Ramdisk as
Code:
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk <Recovery_File_Name>.img
[*]If you have installed magisk, flash the stock boot ramdisk.img as
Code:
fastboot flash ramdisk <ramdisk_File_Name>

I just used the 3.3.1.1 from the TWRP site.
Flash TWRP is to root, so I did it b4 root.
1. OEM unlock
2. Flash TWRP with odin then boot to TWRP, samsung will restore if u normal boot.
3. Backup EFS
4. Format data wipe all
5. Dm verity, search newest from dr ketan
6. Flash custom ROM.
Magisk usually comes with the custom ROM.

This isn't true I flashed Twrp 3.5.091 via Odin, S9+ exynos android 10, then flashed Magisk 21.4.
When I got phone it was android 10 June 2020 security update. It then updated again to 21/02/2021 ota.. I was able to flash recovery twrp and root/debloat. Only problem I did find is that I cannot flash lineage 18.1 or any custom roms.

hey ,
1.install magisk manager on your phone
2.download the firmware from samfirmware for your model of phone to pc
3.download 7zip with lz4
4. use 7zip lz4 to extract boot img from AP(firmware)
5. send the xtracted boot.img to phone sdcard and use magisk manager to patch said image .
6. send the patched img to pc and use 7zip to create archive as boot.tar file
7. one you install the firmware as normal via odin (disable auto reboot ) go back and disconnect/reconnect usb from phone so it appears as added in odin once more.
8. add the boot.tar file to AP in odin and flash the phone , reboot system and install magisk manager again , go into magisk and it will reboot again to fix the root.
there is a video somwhere on youtube showing you better than ive tried to here.
this is by far he best way as you can still take ota updates because stock recovery is still present .
regards
