You have to reinstall the stock recovery in the bootloader with fastboot command,
download the "recovery.img" file, reboot the phone and while the screen turn off you must press the power button plus the volume down button for something like 3 seconds, then it will be on bootloader mode, connect it to your PC with the usb cable and put the command:
-IN WINDOWS:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot
-IN LINUX:
sudo fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
sudo fastboot reboot
this must be done in the folder where is allocated the file "recovery.img"
then just go to the settings/about phone/update system/local update
before this you must put the file UPDATE.APP into your sdcard in a folder named dload
P.D:
you can extract the file "recovery.img" from your UPDATE.APP with the program for windows "huawei update extractor"
Edit:
In the case that you don't have this menu because the mokee rom, you can extract the files from the update.app and flash it manually with the fastboot command, just typing:
fastboot flash "name of the partition" "file for the spicific partition"
you will have to flash the partitions: system, cust, recovery, boot
and do a full wipe before this commands
WARNING: don't flash other partitions or mismatch the files with the partitions, it can brick your device
sorry if I have errors in my english

Data Connection Problem
I got Huawei Ascend Mate from my brother. When he handed to me, he's been ''upgrading'' it to KitKat (B321 rom) from the previous JB stock.
Everything's fine (i feel a little lag, but it's fine). The only problem was it can not perform "data connection" (2G, 3G). The voice & text (sms) was fine.
So I have to connect via WiFi every time.
About a week ago, I receive a notification to upgrade to B331 (via WiFi off course).
It's done. And the problem remains.
Any suggestions for my problem? Thanks

Hi,
go to Settings -> More -> Mobile network -> Access Point Names -> and here add your mobile operator's access point. Mostly you have to only add the APN and you don't have to do anything else. (Your mobile operator can give you information about the APN via you can access the mobile data. It is often 'internet' or 'online'.
Hope I could help

Dude if you are on stock ROM then navigate to
settings > about phone > build number
(Download specific kernel from that three options that matches your build number and flash it)

If you do every step carefully, you'll be done!

Cannot get to boot to twrp temporarily

HI,
I obtained a nokia 6.1 recently.
I had the bootloader unlocked.
I then went to flash the latest ( official) lineage 17
I did all the usual stuff ( i am not a stranger to installing custom roms ), and then tried to temporarily boot into twrp, in order to flash the lineage zip.
I was using the twrp as recommended on lineage site for this device ( nokia 6.1 TA 1050 )
For some reason, after using fastboot boot twrp.img, ( I renamed the image) the phone just booted back to android one screen.?
I could use power/vol up, to get out and back to existing installation, but nothing else.
I then tried temporarily booting the lineage recovery. ( according to the lineage installation instructions)
This involves using a combination of ''fastboot flash boot'' and hardware keys to get there
This worked fine - and I was able to sideolad the lineage zip.
Problem is, if I want to flash images , and do other stuff the lineage recovery cant, i need twrp ( even temporarily).
After installing lineage 17, I tried again to get into twrp, with the same (non) results.
I was wonderinfg if I was getting confused about slots.
I believed that booting twrp temporarily would boot to the right slot? - maybe not.
I then decided to do fastboot flash boot_a, ( etc, ) and then fastboot flash boot_b, ( etc ) to make sure it would boot off either slot. With hindsight, this was dumb
That got me twrp., but lost me the ability to boot into the lineage installation.
After a bit of a panic, I managed to get back to my lineage install.
I have tried since to temporarily boot twrp ( not to both slots ), and am still getting the same results- it boots to the android one screen, and just sits there.
But - if I try to get to recovery using the hardware buttons, I can get to Lineage recovery - which I find strange, because I thought official lineage packages did not install their recovery by default?
Makes me wonder when I thought I had booted lineage recovery temporarily, that maybe I hadn't, and I just booted into a pre installed recovery using the hardware method.
I am probably doing something stupid ( quite common for me ), can anyone enlighten me ?
Many Thanks
pootler

O.k
So I think I found a method in the thread below this - on the third page
I will chek iif it works

Yes - it appears that if you cannot boot into twrp temporarily , then this worked for me!
--at your own risk---
fastboot flash recovery <filename>.img
This will FAIL - but ignore and then right after,
fastboot boot <filename> .img
Voila - boots into TWRP temporarily.
Cheers

Hello,
I erased the Bootloader and tried to flash TWRP to RECOVERY using heimdall.

It has the following errors:

I've check that it was the correct TWRP version (matches model number)
Has anyone experienced this error?
Thanks for reading
