another brick (?) story and help wanted

hi there,
i was on HYD52ROM V2 for the Ascend P6.
I decided to do an upgrade to the KitKat Version of HYD52ROM. So i installed the TouchRecoveryInstaller-v1_01.apk and rebooted. I had the newest file of the Rom on my SD-Card. I wiped the phone and the dalvik also.
Then it said, that there is an error while installing the KitKat Rom.
I thought "no problem" - i had the old V2 on my sd card also.
Now only the bootscreen "Huawei Ascend" appears and nothing more. I can switch off the phone while hitting all the buttons but nothing more. Is there any possibility to get it back working?
If so, please a short step by step will do it.
Thanks!

[Q] please help me guys...I am screwed

I have an International version of ascend p6 -06 with B107.
I was trying to install kitkat into it.Its rooted.
I downloaded the UPDATE.APP from one of the forums.I installed twrp and I thought I can use to flash the new ROM using it,but I couldnt find the option,I read somewhere only the zip files can be installed through TWRP. Whenever I press the volume+ + volume- + power button,the phone starts with the TWRP directly than doing any update .I have put the UPDATE.APP file in dload folder in my SD card,still it was not updating with that given shortcut.
I did a stupid thing just now,I wiped all datas using TWRP and now i have no OS installed ,and like that my phone is bricked.now if i switch on the phone it gets stuck at huawei ascend Logo.and if i press volume up and down buttons along with power button,then it goes to TWRP ..
pls pls pls help me ,and thanks a ton in advance.
I even tried downloading the the original rom from the huawei website and still not able to update using that UPDATE.APP file...
don't panic..
you habe to set your phone into bootloader mode..push power and Volumen + (or -) together and hold them for about 5sec until you See the huawei ascend Logo (it stucks there - thats OK)..
then Connecticut your p6 to the pc and Start your ADB..
depending what Firmware you want (JB or KK) you habe to get a stock recovery IMG..
this can be flashed by ADB using the known commands for flashing recovery..
when you have the stock recovery you can put an update.app (e.g. from the last b511) onto your SD card Ingo the dload folder..
then you habe to unplug your phone from pc and press all three buttons (power and Volumen +/- together) and hold them until you See the Android Figure (force update method)..
should work..
if not then you have to search for the twrp sideload feature (via Google)..
can u help me with starting adb.

I am sorry to trouble you again.yesterday i updater to B508 kitkat,but gprs or 3g were not working.so today I downloaded the B512 version.in this version if iam putting the dload file in SD card,it doesnt read it.I have to put this in internal storage itself.This time my phone is stuck in the normal android recovery stage as I dont have TWRP installed (I guess,the same shorcut is not starting TWRP).
And to update to the older version the update.app file should be there in internal storage which i cannot assess at this point since mobile doesnt start..what do I do??
I tried installing TWRP connecting mobile in the present status,but its not installing
hve you tried to do a force update (3 button method)..
it should work when you put the update.app in dload folder in your sdcard..
maybe you have to go to another Version (b122 or b132)..
but the only method that might now work is the 3 buttons (power and vol +/- together)..and you have to hold them until you see the Android figure (can take more then 10 seconds.. be patient)..
if this won't work then i'm too speechless (hadn't this case before)..
hope you geht your p6 running..
again got lucky

It worked.I fomatted the sd card and left only dload folder .and used the same version which was originally working (508).now its reverted back to normal ..half my tensions are over.but the i wanna change from this rom,in this my internet doesnt work..I wanted to install B510,but for that I have to install B132 first,which i am trying.but its not working.Any idea what should be done.?
try to flash then recovery Form b132 (usw the huawei update extractor to create one..can be found here in then forum)..then via force update you should be able to installiert then b132..and from there it is easy to load then b512 for example (system update local or force update (there you don't need to change the recovery)..

I made B132.zip file and using TWRP i installed it.It showed the istallation was successful,and i rebooted to the system and its stuck in huawei ascend logo and its not moving from there.I tried again using the vol- + vol+ + powerbotton,Its restarting to the sa,me logo.somehow recovery is not working.I think now I am really screwed.
you should not make a ZIP file..
now you are at then beginning again..

Can't update to B512

Hey guys. I was on Kitkat Beta CN with TWRP. I wanted to update to B512 so I reverted to the original recovery B506CN recovery (downloaded it from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2709353)
Once I pressed local update the phone reboots but I get the following error message:
Huawei SD card update fail.....
The update is /dload/update.app
Why do I get this error message and how to fix it in order to update to B512
try one of these http://forum.xda-developers.com/ascend-p6/help/p6-u06-common-issues-fixes-t2843810#post54736765 or http://forum.xda-developers.com/ascend-p6/development/diy-rom-b510-based-add-want-t2843511
Tried many different combinations and nothing helped seems this problem is binded to my SD card. I tried different recovery versions and tried to update when I had 3 different roms. It seems I can't update with the stock recovery no matter what I do. I tried doing that in the internal storage but still the same mistake? Why should it access the SD card for an update in the internal storage?
When I enter recovery manually (without going at update section in settings) I see at first screen this message and I have to restart to enter at the recovery
ro.build.version.release = 4.4.2
ro.product.name = VEDGE
Current build version release is not 4.2 - don't need move.
USB Update Enter...
HUAWEI SDCARD&USB UPDATE AGENT VERSION 2.0
This phone is secureboot phone.
This phone is unlock state
Do you also see it or is this a clue?

You should unplug your device from usb and then reboot to recovery because u can read there "USB Update Enter" that means your device is pluged to a pc

Have you tried using the file to downgrade back to Jelly bean from KitKat?
https://mega.co.nz/#!8kcVADpB!JKeDlX4WQhmAP3mclNTfIzIjVllw5sMhnrj-3KSpSc4
Download the file, and place the dload folder onto your sd card, and do a local update as usual. When that is done, your phone will reboot normally. Just replace the dload folder with the one from B512, and try updating again. If it still doesn't work, I'd suggest doing a forced update using the 3-button method (power button & volume keys).
dl this first http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23252070760973625
extract it's file in your adb dir
You also could try this > run cmd on your pc >use
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery "full name of the file extracted from the downloaded file inc it's extension"
fastboot reboot
then you could try flashing again

I tried and this recovery causes a constant vibrating when in recovery mode, apart from that I still get the same errors.
My only fast and easy solution would be if someone uploaded a B512 repack for TWRP. That would be awesome, right now I just use the B513 repack. I don't think I can find the fix to this any more.

How to lock oem bootloader ?

I unlocked my phone before and now can't be trusted making ota update (B130 to B183) impossible now, because i have phone unlocked and FRP lock, i tried to use fastboot mode to flash stock recovery.img (i had twrp), but it failed (command not aloowed) so i guess i need to revert back to oem lock because stock recovery.img and updates cannot be installed but i don't know the process... Any ideas ? Thanks !

Refer to this thread. Basically you flash stock firmware back
Thanks guys, does it mean i have to downgrade to B120 ???
The file is 6 GB (L09-C432b120a) >>> European region ?
Ok, i tried to flash stock firmware back using project menu so i can do SD Updrade (with dload folder containing update.app and other files) but unfortunatetly, when the process is going on for upgrading, it is sudddenly stopped by the Huawei eRecovery interface which shows up all the time and with an option to download lastest recovery via wifi but it fails too when i use this option...
I'm running the B130 version, i guess the downgrading to B120 cannot work ? because before the Huawei eRecovery showed up, i could see a quick message that the firmware current version (B120) is not correct.
i thought i could relock bootloader back using this B120 firmware, but do i need to download the full B183 firmware ? Then i use SD Card Upgrade via project menu ?
where can i find the official stock recovery for honor 8 pro ?

I already tired this method, it failed
ok...i was so desesperate that i used a tool called SRKTool Huawei where it was possible to lock boot loader, i tried it on my phone but unfortunately, it destroyed recovery image and now my phone keeps booting on fastboot mode like a loop trying to look for recovery image, i cannot even switch my phone off, it cannot be detected on my computer, i ****ed it up, my phone is useless now...
My problem now is similar to this one : https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/help/stuck-rescue-mode-screen-please-help-t3244872
I guess i have to let my phone draining by itself because i have bootloop and long press on power seems to have no effect...
Once drained, i have to plug it in with usb ? and then the phone will be detected on my computer ? because right now i'm stuck with fastboot mode with bootloop and with a "error mode"...
Ok, after fully decharged, i recharge my phone and now i am able to enter fastboot mode and i have :
Phone relocked
FRP Lock
Since it was relocked, everything was deleted, so there's no system, etc...
At this point, what should i do now properly ?
Do i have to use huawei extractor and extract Boot.img, Recovery.img, system.img from UPDATE.APP ?
And then flash them in fastboot mode ? But do i have to unlock oem again with my code ?
Edit: The UPDATE.APP should be taken from B120, B130 version ?
I have nougat and unlocked it before
I tried to put update.app in dload folder of the SD card and then, tried to force installation using and holding power + vol up+ vol down, but it failed, it says :
"Software install failed
Incompatibility with current version
Pleasse download the correct update package"
So, which package do i need to install ? The package version has to correspond accordingly to the Huawei recovery version ?
Sorry, i'm lost now....
Since i have my phone relocked, with FRP lock, with no system to boot on (so i cannot enable usb debugging mode and developer option), how can i flash or install img and software in fastboot mode and rescue with phone relocked, FRP lock ?
I cannot flash anything with fastboot mode, the only solution is to flash with SD Card containing the correct firmware and using force upgrade method (power + vol up and down) but during the process it ends at 5% and it says :
"Software install failed
Incompatibility with current version
Pleasse download the correct update package"
I checked the info of bootloader and it says : L09C432B130
Where can i get the proper L09C432B130 firmware ? On other websites, there are three zip files (i cannot find the official firmware on huawei website for flashing):
update zip
update_full_DUK-L09_hw_eu.zip
Update_data_full_public.zip
The update.zip is the one i should download ? So i can extract the UPDATE.APP from this update.zip and i can add in the dload folder of Sd Card ?

I tried to reinstall with force upgrade, it fails again at 5% in hauwei erecovery:
"Software install failed
Incompatibility with current version
Pleasse download the correct update package"
Fastboot mode can only give me infos, but i cannot flash anything because of "...command not allowed", and force upgrade using Sd Card with any firmware compatible fails with the well known error message i posted above...
When i switch on the phone, it cannot boot up the system since i relocked phone from unlocked phone (which was rooted before), so it deleted data but it also deleted the boot and system i think.
The only thing i can access is Fastboot mode (Phone locked, FRP lock) and Huawei eRecovery which is useless.
In huawei eRecovery mode, under the Emui logo, you have "Download latest version and recovery" "Reboot" "Shutdown"...
When i use "Download latest version and recovery" using wifi mode, it tries to download but it fails when trying to get infos from server...

how to unbrick your phone OR get over NR90D test Key !

have you brick your device ? hare you still on emui 5.0 beta (test key nr90d, you dont have themes and no update) this is for you !
you need : a huawei devices with unlock bootloader (search for your device on xda) a computer, a SD card (+5go)
If you are stock on NR90D :
dowload huawei update extractor (zip) on xda,
dowload the last FULLOTA compatible with your phone and the app huawei firmware finder
(it's on your phone files in HWFF)
extract it on your comuter
extract the UPDATE.APP with udate extracor to get RECOVERY.img
install TWRP on your device see XDA post
flash on recovery RECOVERY.img
put update.app on /dload/ of your sd card
launch your phone on recovery
If you are bricked :
dowload the last FULLOTA compatible with huawei firmware finder (xda)
extract it on your comuter
extract the UPDATE.APP with udate extracor to get RECOVERY.img
install TWRP on your device XDA
flash on recovery RECOVERY.img
put update.app on /dload/ of your sd card
launch your phone on recovery
sorry for my english , i hope it will hepl someone
If device is bricked how can you install twrp? Both of your methods are the same, all they are is the Huawei force update method.
here
hi !
sorry i've did'nt put thD e link
all here https://forum.xda-developers.com/nova-plus/development/recovery-unofficial-twrp-huawei-nova-t3523473
to extract
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454&page=1
firmware finder :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/tools/general/huawei-firmware-finder-team-mt-t3469146
(yes, to get out of testing key you have to flash the new recovery of an real update and you have just to have the imei)
My point was if the device is bricked you will not be able to get to fastboot to flash twrp.
Normally , you can ...
Just tu unlock OEM unlock and usb debug
