I have a problem with upgrades. I bought my P6 a month ago and recently decided to upgrade it to a newer version of android.
A few days ago i rooted it and deleted some unneeded google apps plus the original calculator which appearantly is the main problem here - system upgrade has an error because of the missing calculator and doesn't complete the upgrade.
I am new to the samrtphone world and would appreciate any help very much.

Hey,
you can try to install the calculator app again. I uploaded it for you
Simply put the calculator.apk on your internal storage -> system -> app
This can maybe help you
If not I would do this (if you want to upgrade to a newer firmware) :
[This would be the whole process if you have problem upgrading]
What I would first try is to go into Fastboot mode. Then I would flash the stock recovery ( Jelly Bean[4.2] or Kit Kat[4.4] ). Afterwards i would download the firmware you want, put the update.app in your dload folder on your sdcard and flash it over stock recovery.
So 1. step:
Entering Fastboot mode with the help of the buttons on your phone
Press and hold VOL - and POWER button and your phone will enter fastboot mode

You need to go back to stock recovery and flash again the update.app ROM. Follow the tutorial on XDA.

You can download the file now, XDA had some uploading problems.
And another thing, there is nothing to select, you must put the upload.app in dload folder and after that press the Power + Volume Up/Down buttons at once and it will begin the auto update.It's easy, you can do it and you will have again the stock ROM, which is the most stable at the moment.

Thanks. But it doent works. Stock Recovery is installed. But Flashing Failed.
Hi everyone.
Here's my build of TWRP for P6S-U06.
Features:
Supports USB OTG, so you can use USB flash drive as external storage for backups, zip installations.
Because device doesn't support external SD card, I've added feature to make backup of internal storage (to USB flash of course).
Combined with stock EMUI 3.1 recovery. In case of power-on by holding power + vol+ or rebooting into recovery by command or any 3rd part application: will boot in TWRP. In case of local update, OTA-update, "force update" (3buttons method) or factory reset: will boot into EMUI recovery.
Off-mode charger updated from EMUI 3.1
custom.bin and cust symlinks are saved/restored (if they were exist) in case of Wipe/Format Data. So there not gonna be "cust" issues after factory reset in TWRP.
Requirements:
Unlocked bootloader
Android 4.4.2 - 5.1.1
Installation:
Reboot in fastboot mode
Flash image via fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash recovery TWRP_Recovery-3.0.3-0.img
fastboot reboot
From TWRP: Press "Install" and select zip-archive
Notes:
Because internal storage is not a separate block device and just a subfolder of "userdata" partition, before you can make backup/restore of internal storage, first you should do Mount -> Data.
It will not work on P6, it's for P6S only.
Download: TWRP_Recovery-3.0.3-0.img
For TWRP: TWRP_Recovery-3.0.3-0.zip
Previous:
Download: TWRP_Recovery-3.0.2-0.img
For TWRP: TWRP_Recovery-3.0.2-0.zip
Download: TWRP_Recovery-3.0.0-0.img
For TWRP: TWRP_Recovery-3.0.0-0.zip

Flashing Instructions for MIUI 12
Note that these are generic flashing instructions that should generally be applicable across Xiaomi, Redmi, and POCO devices. However, there is a possibility that there is a variation that is unique to your device, so we strongly advise visiting your device forums for device-specific instructions .
Recovery ROM Installation
Recovery ROMs come with a .zip file extension and can be installed either through the Local Update method from within MIUI, or through the Xiaomi stock recovery. You can also use a custom recovery like TWRP for installing these ROMs, though do note that device-specific instructions may differ in that case.
Local Update method:
Transfer the download .zip file to your phone, and ensure you place the file in the “downloaded_rom” folder in the internal storage of your device. If no such folder exists, create one in your internal storage base directory.
Within your phone, navigate to Settings > About Phone > System Update, and then press the three-dot icon in the top-right corner, and select “Choose Update Package”.
If the “Choose Update Package” option is missing, tap on the MIUI logo 10 times to activate the option.
Choose the downloaded .zip file.
Wait for the update to install.
Recovery method:
Rename the downloaded .zip file to update.zip and transfer it to the base directory of your phone’s internal storage.
Reboot your phone into recovery mode by powering it off and then pressing both the Power and the Volume Up buttons together.
Scroll to the “Install update.zip” option using the volume keys, and select the option using the power button.
Wait for the update to install.
Choose the “Reboot” option if your phone does not reboot by itself after installation is completed.
