NOTICE: Go here for my newer tool here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=52973530
ABOUTThis is a very simple CMD UI to install the TWRP (Jellybean and Kitkat) for the P6, as well as to revert back to stock recovery. There is also option to unlock bootloader, but I'm not very sure that it works.
Hope this makes flashing TWRP/Stock recoveries easier!
This is my first time making something for xda. I would be excited to hear any feedback or suggestions.
FEATURES
TWRP Installing for Jellybean, Kitkat B506, and OMNI ROM.
Reverting to stock recovery for Jellybean and Kitkat B506.
Entering into recovery.
Unlocking device (untested)
REQUIREMENTS
Unlocked Bootloader (You can use this tool or install B506)
KITKAT B506 Based ROM
OMNI Based ROM
JELLYBEAN Based ROM
DRIVERS FOR HUAWEI P6-U06 or P6-U00
DOWLOADS
TWRP Installer V1.1.3b
TWRP Installer V1.1.3a
TWRP Installer V1.1.2
TWRP Installer V1.1.0
TWRP Installer V1.0.1
TWRP Installer V1.0.0
INSTRUCTIONSHere are the steps:
1. Download file here. http://goo.gl/6nONyf
2. Extract the rar to desktop.
3. Run "TWRP_Installer.exe". I don't believe you need admin settings.
4. And just follow instructions on the screen from there.
WHAT IF MY PHONE WON'T BOOT?Do not worry! Just follow the instructions below!
However, you will have to enter into fastboot mode manually before you use the tool. This is how:
1. Plug in your phone to a computer.
2. Press down power and volume(-) for 10 seconds, and wait for your device to turn off. Do not let go.
3. After you see Huawei logo for 2 seconds, release the power button.
4. After 5 seconds, release the volume (-) button.
5. This will enter into fastboot mode, and then you can continue to use the tool. From there, you would either:
a) Install Stock Kitkat/Jellybean Recovery, b) TWRP Kitkat/Jellybean
6. Enter recovery mode. If you choose stock recovery, download an UPDATE.APP and install the OS likewise. If you choose TWRP, download a custom rom, and install the OS likewise.

My Phone is Stuck!
Please help,
My phone is stuck after i accidentally installed the OMNI boot image from this tool on the stock Kitkat B506. The problem is that "TWRP_Installer_1.0.1.exe" was not working, asking for some missing .dll. Then i just double clicked on "omni_boot_kitkat.bat" and without waiting for my input or confirmation, it went ahead and did something. Now i am stuck on the android logo. I don't have TWRP also. Please help me to bring the system back to normal.

Click the stock_boot_kitkat.bat to revert to stock boot.img.
Or just do
fastboot flash boot boot.img
I will look into the issue with the dll library being missing.

Shoot.... but how is that possible?
When you install the omni boot.img, it requires usb debugging enabled, with RSA fingerprint from the computer to be whitelisted.
It installed, so clearly you had the RSA fingerprint whitelisted...
But now when you try to install the stock boot.img now it blacklisted the RSA fingerprint...
Ok, you can give this a shot but I'm not sure if it will work.
1. Get an SD card, put the B506 update on it.
2. Reboot into recovery with power and (+)(-) buttons.
3. Then reinstall the B506 update.
The update should replace the boot.img.
If it still doesn't work, do a factory reset/ partition wipe from the recovery.
I'm sorry for the inconvenience that this may have caused you.
I will look deeply into this issue.

Basically my exe didn't start on his computer because I didn't compile the program with a static library. I'm going to fix that.
Then he went ahead and tried running one of my scripts, which installed the OMNI kernel. But he was using B506 stock, which then made his device not boot due to different ramdisk config.
I then suggest that he reflash the stock boot.img which I included in another batch file, but then the OMNI kernel asks for permissions for USB debugging.
His phone doesn't boot in the Android UI so he can't access the confirmation box that allows debuging.
He doesn't have TWRP, so he can't flash recovery boot.img that way either.
So now the only solution is to reinstall the ROM via UPDATE.APP.

Yes, thanks for your understanding. For next release I will try to integrate the bat files into the exe so no more accidental installation by the end user will occur. Maybe have a confirmation before the install.

Re: [GUIDE] SU640 Rooting and CWM Recovery
I don't know if there's one, have you tried searching on other sites? I think there's a method where you will have to flash baseband.img in order to install roms for p93x. I didn't try, I'm happy with miui. and I'm not sure about the method.
well thanks! i will search that. thanks for help

Ate you sure that the rom you installed is for su640?. Installing ROMs for p93x is incompatible with our device. Make sure that the developer of the rom states that its compatible for su640.

I cant install CWM recovery. Tried it two times but to no avail. The tutorial states that CWm is installed adn then it doesnt boot into CWM.
The device rooted succesfully though.
Any solution?
Vol down + power button doesnt take you to recovery? Have you tried rebooter?
In case cwm is not installed try it once again. If it has the same result try the OLD METHOD.

it simply means that your mobile is not rooted properly.thats why mobile not rebooting to cwm.
kindly root the mobile properly.if it again gives error , tell me
Attach a picture of the rooting guide after that it takes five minutes until the tutorial states that it is booting into CWM which it doesnt. I tried using rebooter to boot into CWM but using that i stumble upon a dead android with a exclamation mark over its stomach after the phone shuts down and tries to reboot into CWM.
Any solution?. And i updated my phone thorough LG software for the jellybean update.
Hi Guys, I'm currently on Custom PACROM and I'd like to try this Rom. Do I need to Flash this through LG Flash software? or I can just flash this through recovery?

Introduction:
This is my first ROM for any device, there will probably be bugs. I am not responsible for anything that happens to YOUR device as a result of flashing this. All releases are tested before posting to minimize the risk but there is always a chance something could go wrong!
My aim with this rom was to clean out all the useless rubbish I never use. This includes all social networking integration as I only see this as bloat, being as most of it is installable from the market.
Maybe someone else would like this too, so I am sharing my work.
Downloads:
z1slim.flashable.v0.4.zip (XDA Direct)
z1slim.flashable.v0.4.zip (XDA Torrent)
MD5: f12ac5a793edd2a25f7d9c3e758fda38
290-stripped.ftf
MD5: d06d6a554ba012d3ca0fb6bcd0f526b3
If you need something I have removed, download the AROMA installer below. It has all the apps and integration that I have removed from the stock rom in a format you can easily pick and choose what to reinstall. Just install it in recovery and tick any apps you want back! All apps within this installer are also deodexed.
z1slim.re-bloat.v1.zip
MD5: 91416eb62e0ddafd5257da28166fddac
How to install:
YOU WILL LOSE ALL USERDATA ON INTERNAL SDCARD BY DOING THIS. SO BACKUP FIRST!
1: Flash c6903 stock version 534 from this link: https://mega.co.nz/#!K1QD1bSK!JkgNvz3Tqb6lq4brVUEyZGraOjMQuTuzn8IaEFhQhUI
2: Root using bin4rys tool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31545627
3: Install XZ1 DualRecovery 2.7.73 beta from [NUT]'s website: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2261606
4: Copy z1slim.flashable.v0.4.zip to external sdcard
4: Reboot into TWRP
5: Click wipe -> Advanced wipe -> Tick dalvik+cache+system+internal data -> swipe to wipe
6: Format data -> Type yes
7: Install z1slim.flashable.v0.4.zip
8: DO NOT REBOOT! Instead go to reboot menu and click power off
9: Flash 290-stripped.ftf using FlashTool
10: Enjoy the rom!
First boot will take a while if you have done a factory reset.
Alternatively if you do not have an external sdcard you can sideload the zip
this is neccessary because we will format internal storage, so it cannot be there.
If you already have a rooted 4.3 ROM installed with XZDR working properly, you can just download the flashable zip, wipe data etc and install it from recovery. If you are coming from a previous version of this ROM then you only need to install the zip. No wipe required.

Good to see more DEVS here and there, let me give you an advice, people will not go back to 534 if they're already in .290 with working recovery, because i didnt go back to 534 since the first semi-rooted 290 i had to always flash the flashable recovery that i had! now if you read the NUT thread you can figure out that if you already have a working recovery or you were on any 290 from iHackers or ROMAUR or even Monx you'll be able to just flash the update zip that is in the NUT to get Full ROOT!
anyways that was only my opinion
Thanks and good luck.
Nice mate.
You are not taking anything more than others who are posting stupid things like - "new album upgrade".
Learn and upgrade your ROM, we need good guys here.
Maybe this isn't heavy development but it's one step up and I'm 100% sure it'll be great ROM one day.
You are creating something new, unlike some others guys who are constantly whining and doesn't contribute this community at all.
BTW what @Simow.b saying is correct, you should add that in OP.
Just write: if you are already on 290 or any ROM with working recovery just flash ROM through recovery, flash recovery, power of, flash ftf and restart.

Nice mate.
You are not taking anything more than others who are posting stupid things like - "new album upgrade".
Learn and upgrade your ROM, we need good guys here.
Maybe this isn't heavy development but it's one step up and I'm 100% sure it'll be great ROM one day.

We have to support guys who are willing to take their free time and work for us - free.
Someone will make something smaller, someone will make something big - but that's not important, what's important is that they are trying and learning and that's great.

Good to see more DEVS here and there, let me give you an advice, people will not go back to 534 if they're already in .290 with working recovery, because i didnt go back to 534 since the first semi-rooted 290 i had to always flash the flashable recovery that i had! now if you read the NUT thread you can figure out that if you already have a working recovery or you were on any 290 from iHackers or ROMAUR or even Monx you'll be able to just flash the update zip that is in the NUT to get Full ROOT!
anyways that was only my opinion
Thanks and good luck.

Didn't work the phone reboots back up dosent go into recovery.
Jonster111 - Nobody is forcing you to click on this thread or download this ROM. It is quite apparent what it is from both the thread title and the description in the first post.
Thanks Simow.b and funky0308 for the real support
Who knows, maybe this will one day be a base for a proper modified rom. Until then, I still need to remove the useless rubbish!

Ive just noticed that its not really got full root so have to fix that too. Cant mount system R/W but have got latest XZDR... Weird.
adamo06 please follow the guide in [NUT]'s thread properly. You need to download the 534 version from his OP to get the rom to install properly, or at least have a rooted 257 with recovery already. Also, please take discussion about that to the appropriate thread.

Follow my steps then:
1- flash 534 using flashtool
2- root it using bin4ry's tools
3- install NUT recovery (the ones that i have given) install windows version and when you're on the recovery flash the one that is flashable! do not reboot!
4- flash the 290 from any DEV i would recommend iHackers v2.0 do not reboot!
5- flash xposed for lb from Monx and again (do not reboot! )
6- flash the update zip for 290 from NUT thread
7- wipe cache/dalvik
8- power off the phone from recovery
9- flash the kernel for 290
10- boot the phone and wait!
Hope this helps now

You need to wait at least a minute after flashing recovery.
Don't touch phone till then.
After a min press power button once. You can unlock the recovery.
After that go to setting in recovery. Change brightness to 10% . small issue. But bothers lot in beginning.

Hello...
8 - "DONT REBOOT TO NORMAL MODE"?
I do not understand step 9 ... I did not understand which buttons to press. I may not be able to restart in recovery mode.
Root = flash the zip with TWRP. Right?
Xposed = flash sdk23 / arm64 zip with TWRP. Right?
I couldn't get TWRP work in my phone, not sure what step I misunderstood or missed out. After the unlock process the phone will be reset and I need to set up dev, usb debugging again after normal reboot. After renaming/replacing recovery.img run the install twrp script. The phone will reboot into recovery and it normally says "press any key to continue" until the process is completed, then wait for a few minutes. However when I reboot to recovery mode it's still "Lenovo recovery" not TWRP. I did it about 3x with the same result. Any idea? Thanks in advance.

WHAT IS TWRP?
Team Win Recovery Project is a custom recovery for Android devices.
It allows you to back up and restore your data, flash custom ROMs to your device, repair broken file systems, and root your device.
Read more about TWRP here: https://twrp.me/about/
What's new in 3.2.1-0:
* minui fixes (cryptomilk) * Better android-8.0 compatibility in ROM trees (Dees_Troy) * Fix missing library in android-8.0 (nkk71) * Fix inconsistent SDCard naming (DevUt) * Default to TWRP restore instead of adb backup restore to fix restore on fresh TWRP boot (jlask)
INSTALLATION:
Most devices can be updated quickly and easily within TWRP if you already have version 2.8.4.0 or higher installed
1) Download the latest version above
2) Reboot to TWRP
3) Hit Install and tap the "Install Image" button in the lower right
4) Browse to the location of the TWRP image on your device and select it
5) Select recovery from the partition list and swipe to flash
To install from SP Flash Tools:
1) Download scatter file attached to this post
2) Load scatter file into SPFT
3) Plug USB cable into device and computer
4) Press download in SPFT
5) Reboot device
To install from offical TWRP App (Requires a rooted device.)
1) Download Official TWRP App from playstore
2) Choose the device (elephone P9000 -- p9000)
3) Install it
BUGS:
If you have an issue, the first step is to post a recovery log so we can determine the cause of the issue. This is done in recovery using Advanced -> Copy Log, or adb pull /tmp/recovery.log. Once a log is uploaded we can determine how best to proceed.
Other Projects:
Make sure to also check my dualbooting guide here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/elephone-p9000/how-to/guide-dualboot-patcher-t3608213

But again, what's the difference between an installation of twrp from its app and via flashtools. Is it in the end the same? Or do you recommend one of both methods?

If you already have root, i recommend the app, since its an easier to way to download, install/update the recovery, but if you dont have root you need at least once to install it from flash tools, since the app is not an option yet for the moment(its not on devices list, but you can manually install it), you can download the image and flash it through the app (if you have root, that is) if you dont have roog you need to use flash tools
I have P9000 with Nougat on it, version Elephone_P9000_20170418 and I'm trying to install TWRP 3.0.2 with SPFlash Tool, I only check recovery and flash it, but when I start the phone in recovery mod displays only show "no command". Is there any scatter file for this version, and what should I do to flash it through SPFlash Tool?

Any scatter file from one of our stock roms should do the trick, just put it alongside the downloaded twrp image, and flash it, also twrp 3.0.2 is not official, unlike this one, this one will be able to be updated directly through the twrp app once the issue is fixed.

the app will always require root, but you can always use magisk with the certification bug fix and magisk hide so that you can have the device certified and still be rooted. (if you dont know what certification is used for, its to allways allow the usage of android pay)

You can try to compare your sources with those of Jonny. The TWRP versions which he build worked for me.
Edit: I tried to fix it by myself and after I used another kernel (Darksense kernel) as prebuild kernel it worked.

There's also a global version now for only 65€ that can be found via Chinese resellers which is a bargain.
According to 4pda the Bootloader seems unlocked since a user was alble to flash mido TWRP with no working touchscreen unfortunately.
The phone has been updated to Oreo with Camera2api enabled which makes Gcam ports work well
Unfortunately there no official downloadable firmware, unbrick guides or custom ROMs, which is surprising considering the great custom ROM community India has
Gcam with everything working except Slowmo:
*Works only on Android 7.1.2
https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/gcamera/NoHex_MGC_6.1.021_xcam_5_beta20.apk
According to a user at 4pda forums mido TWRP can be flashed but there's no working touchscreen.
Since there's no way to find the Oreo update zip file we can't get the display driver yet
Be careful - unlocking the boot on this device leads to impossibility of OTA update to 8.1. (status 7 in recovery). Fought with this phone for almost a month, and no lucky chance to catch the update in "mid-air"(while it's being downloaded) or make the updater's apk to download the firmware in other place instead of data (owner: root). Still going for a vicious circle: we don't have root to pull the OTA update out of the phone to make a custom recovery... And we don't have TWRP to root it.
We didn't exactly flash mido TWRP, just booted it. Hardware buttons are working though, but again we don't have CWM.

I'm not Russian so I'm using Google translate to understand .
Should I upgrade to Oreo any downsides?
Can you upload the Google camera config files?
How can we make twrp work?
Isn't there any firmware dump tool for Qualcomm phones?
If we can get the stock boot.img we can have root without TWRP
Also has anyone tried flashing treble ROMs via fast boot?
Edit: Found this tutorial
What I wanna say is: Dumping the stock boot.img
Modify it with root via the Magisk app
Flash the modified boot.img in fast boot in order to have root

Interesting tutorial, but the program in video saves files in unknown format. What do we do with them after we got dump?
1. Oreo update contains one little bug - it slightly interrupts the touchscreen's work. No noticeable in everyday usage, but still having its place. Can't attach the example 'çause I'm newbie here.
2. The only way to build up the TWRP is to get kernel source of stock rom (boot.img). The problem is that we can't pull it out of device - this partition is hidden under "root" privileges.
3. You can dump anything with ADB, but there is no way you see the most important partitions like data, system, boot, recovery and so on.
4. Nope, see second line;
5. No, because the chance to catch a brick (to get an empty device which won't load the system/recovery/adb/fastboot) is too high.

Interesting tutorial, but the program in video saves files in unknown format. What do we do with them after we got dump?
1. Oreo update contains one little bug - it slightly interrupts the touchscreen's work. No noticeable in everyday usage, but still having its place. Can't attach the example 'çause I'm newbie here.

So is there another way ?
Have you discovered anything new?
Also as I said can you upload the Google camera config files?
You can upload them via a PC using the paper clip icon
Also how's the camera quality with Google camera?

So far we can't see another ways to get TWRP or root. Couple of configs (remove space in the end of links):

Google Camera works pretty fine, especially on 8.1. But the seventh droid has fancy photos too. Search for the gcam on the 4pda thread, there are some examples of Google Camera photos.

Any Custom Recovery for Billion Capture Plus??
Is there any working Custom Recovery available for Billion Capture Plus (4GB+64GB model). I have tried some available recovery from TWRP and OrangeFox and it stuck in Boot screen where it just show "Billion logo and powered by Android". In this mode if I connect to my PC and using fastboot I can still access mobile and whatever I try to flash it is not working.
Any help in getting Custom Recovery or Original Bootloader so that I can use my mobile will be helpful for me.

Dev on 4pda forums are still working on it
Anyone got enough language skills to translate some 4pda instructions into english? Ofc we got google translator, but personally I would feel more secure having those steps in english.
