Looks like your goal is to go back to B125?
Just flash recovery only from the link you posted:
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407568599
You don't need to flash KK beta, flash B125 immediately.
Place UPDATE.APP from B125 in dload folder on your external SD card. Turn off the phone.
Turn it back on while holding volume down+volume up+power. Hold for at least 3 seconds. Update should start by itself.
Hope it works for you.

As I understand surdu_petru stated that you can flash TWRP 2.6.3.7 only on KK Beta, and 2.6.3.3 only on B118 unlocked firmware.
For flashing any custom ROM you have to read what ROM developer says. If developer of the custom ROM says "you can only flash it on B118", then you must be on B118. I would not try to flash it on B125 unless I was brave/dumb!

Huawei P6 B513 stock cannot load twrp 2.8.0.0
Hi All, can anyone help or guide me how to install twrp 2.8.0.0 from B513 stock? I tried using adb + fastboot to flash but i received error saying that it cannot load. Please help.....
Ok after sleepless night now i got it. the answer is given above..... thank you so much........
Another question, will there be a problem if I flashed straight to twrp 2.8.00 from stock recovery B513? just curious will i be missing any important updates coming from the early revision that may not be available in the latest one?
twpr
when i do "fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.0.img" say me "cannot load openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.0.img".
why?
Maybe you need to redownload the file, and check the spelling just in case.

Just rename file to something shorter, for example: twrp-2.8.0.0.img and try again.

I had TWRP 2.8.1.0, now I tried to get stock, HELP needed!
First of all, many thanks to @surdu_petru, as usual your works have been always appreciated!
I had TWRP 2.8.1.0 and CM11, now I wanted to go to stock (recovery and rom). So, I flashed the B510 stock files: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51718316&postcount=2
and now, when I try to go to recovery to install the UPDATE.APP in dload folder, it displays some other info with no options:
Code:
ro.build.version.release = 4.4.2
ro.product.name = UEDGE
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.
I searched the forums but no avail, most of them refer to older versions;
I am on android kitkat, and most of the guides I found were referring to jellybean.
EDIT: I have found the way, to go from custom to stock manufacturer rom, and to go from KitKat to JellyBean.
To downgrade from KK to JB; To go back from custom to stock w/o backups
Former details:
Huawei Ascend P6
-running CM11 (thanks to @surdu_petru)
-using TWRP 2.8.1.0 (thanks to @surdu_petru)
-on B512 before installing custom rom and recovery
**requirements
-sdcard
-enough battery capacity
#optional; USB cable
What I did:
-flash B635 repack in TWRP [http://forum.xda-developers.com/ascend-p6/development/b635-repack-bbnkk4-4-2-huawei-p6-t2929111]
-flash B510 recovery.img in bootloader mode [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2709353; POST #2]
-place B132 in dload folder; in sdcard
-force update by holding [Vol -]+[Vol +]+[PWR]
**you will be in a bootloop after
-go to recovery (in this case; stock recovery-B510)
-wipe /data; /cache;
-and reboot
-Voila!! update to B512; international firmware

Since everybody knows how to upgrade OTA or from LOCAL UPGRADE and go from 4.2 to 4.4 I've decided to let you know how to easily downgrade from 4.4 to 4.2 AND / OR change from Chinese to International Huawei Firmware!
The method I describe here, I've found in some German forums after long search. It really works! 100% tested on my device Ascend P6-U06!
!!! CAUTION !!!
Before you begin, you must be sure you have STOCK recovery, NOT TWRP one!!! This flashable files work and can be flashed only thru STOCK recovery!
If you have TWRP recovery and don't know how to go back to STOCK one, look the SECOND POST in THIS thread and follow the steps there, before you begin this procedure! ONLY after you're done with turning back your STOCK recovery and you're sure of that, you can continue with the following steps:
To Downgrade from Android 4.4 to Android 4.2 / Switch from Chinese to International ROM, do the following:
1. Download this (Unicom 2.0 Downgrade Flashable ZIP) and flash it thru STOCK RECOVERY - https://mega.co.nz/#!ZYVixBqa!JNMLRB2DUVKlGpZVqPJbIsdbVPijks7r1Mtk46KGrmE
This is a 240MB archive, also known as Unicom 2.0 - something like ROM, but it is not an entire ROM, but just part of it, that must be flashed thru stock recovery. You must unzip it, take the dload folder that is inside and put it on you sdcard. Than you can flash it like a local update thru the updater, or you can forcefully flash it - pres power+ volume down+ volume up and it will take you directly to flashing updates thru stock recovery. When you flashed it, you can once again boot normally into you Android device. Now you must take dload folder from the B132 zip (from the link below), once again put it on your sdcard and flash it again using the same methods again thru stock recovery. The cool thing is that the first little flashable zip allows you not just to downgrade from 4.4 to 4.2, but also change from China to International ROMs. So when you're finished flashing this thru stock recovery, flash the official international B125 or B132, wait for the system to install and boot into android. When it is finally booted, you can flash B510 or B512/513 - whatever you want. In my case when I downgraded to B132, after the first boot the system prompted me, that it can be updated directly to B520 OTA. I've updated and now I am once again with International firmware
2. Download this (B132 International 4.2 Firmware) and flash it thru STOCK RECOVERY ONLY if you already flashed the file in the step above! - https://mega.co.nz/#!5JkAzKpB!nFqfHIHfWo6EO4XPqjO3Gga6a3XWWnqqZxZDZpzAdWE
3. Boot into Official Huawei Android 4.2 firmware and check for update OTA. If you have one - install it. If you don't - you can flash B510 or B512/513/etc...
Enjoy International firmware line again! This method can also be used just to downgrade form Android 4.4 to Android 4.2!
Files are not flashable thru TWRP - please, use ONLY Stock Recovery!

Please, hit THANKS, if this thread helped you!
question: which stock recovery should i take if i have b635 (there is no available official b635 rom - only repack)..

Just try with the stock B510 recovery from the second post in the TWRP recovery theme! I think stock recovery is the same for all 4.4 ROMs and it doesn't matter which one. I recommend the one that I told you about! Should work! I was with Chinese B706 ROM and TWRP. To downgrade I've flashed the B510 stock recovery first and then - step by step as I wrote above.
thanks..will try to do that..

I have a question for you - I see that you modified the .prop file for the local channel, to get louder sound in headphones (from your signature). I've tried to do this today, but when I try to modify the file every time it says - cannot save changes, file cannot be modified, changes not saved! I have root and I've mounted / and /system as writable! I can edit build.pro without any problem and save the changes, but this file - I can't! How did you edited it and how can I edit it too?
Thank you!
UP!
Moderators, please consider to make this thread sticky / important! Thank you!
did not work for me..
i made the following:
flashed stock recovery from b510
took a fresh 4gb sdcard with dload folder on it..inside this folder was the update.app from the unicom rom..
then turned off device..
then pressed power,vol + & - together and held it 'til the recovery screen with yellow writing appeared..
it started to flash..but on the point where the verlist check begins it tells me "fail"!!!..
so what to do now???
i know this procedure..did it with the b506 rom and it worked..but with the b635 rom it won't work..

Try to flash B706 Chinese EMUI 3.0 new Development edition ROM from the official Huawei web site. If you flash it over the B635 successfully, then you must be able to do this procedure to turn back into international line of ROMs and to B132 4.2 ROM. after that you can flash B510 again. Try this method! I'm pretty sure that it will be possible to flash B706 directly over B635, even than that in the official website it is recommended to update only from B508SP02 official chinese rom. I had success with updating directly to B706 from B512, but if you can't go from B635, try to flash B508SP02 first, than B706 and than downgrade! Should work! Good Luck!
got it..
i just had to flash the b125!!!
so easy..i just flashed the stock recovery of b510..made a force update with the b125 (not the p6 unicom 2.0!!!!)..and now i just upgrade my p6 to b520 via OTA!!!

No. No problems at all. I think just the upgrade took a little while that usual but it flashed like charm over the B512 without any problems! I think the flashing from B508 is just a recommendation, because the B508SP02 is the latest chinese ROM, and this B706 is Chinese developers edition...

That's right! Download the official B706 from Huawei EMUI website, unzip it, put the dload folder in you sdcard and then i recomend to make Local update first. If it doesn't want to update thru local update option in the Update Application, then try with forceful update - press and hold power + volume up + volume down and wait until phone boots into stock recovery mode! The update can only be done with stock recovery! If you're on TWRP, that you must go back to stock!
**** uc browser sucks
I kept to download b508 due to some problem I have to pause it only 36mb was remaining and when I resumed it showed a error was not able to resume the download so I re downloaded the b508 it got downloaded now
So kept to download b706 the same thing happened only 50mb was remaining for the download to complete it showed a error again but this time I did even pause ****
And now someone told me we can update b706 on b512 no need of b508 ****
Today ill download b706 on chrome

I tried to downgrade with this method but it fails when i flash Unicom 2.0 (i follow the instructions:download it..unzip then put UPDATE.app in dload folder of my sdcard).When i flash it,itfails(i have Stock Recovery,never installed TWRP).
Is this method valid also for B513+EMUI2.3?Or maybe i've done something wrong?
Any help is very appreciate..Thanks

Try to flash it forceful with holding all buttons together, or try to copy not only the update.app, but the whole dload folder from the archive. If it's not working, just try to flash B510 or B512 on top of B513 - this should work. After that you can try to downgrade to 4.2 again with the same method!

Cause i'm a newbie,i explain you step by step what i've done:
I follow carefully your instructions(part 1),i try to flash it with local update,but i get message "fail"
After that,in stock recovery,i didn't reboot,but i move to option "apply update from external storage" and after a few seconds i have messages:
-wiping cache (at package request)...
-formatting cache
-cache wipe complete
-install from sd card complete
-cust copying files
-copy cust files successed!
It means that the process has been successful ??? If yes then i proceed to downgrade...
If no,i'll try with your advice to flash B510 or B512 on top of B513...

Before going to twrp i suggest you make an update to official chinese firmware (like b708), and then go for the twrp. I have the newest version and if you like i can make a download link for you. As for the sdcard update fail just move the folder with the file in internal storage.

But I can update to B708 with the CWM Recovery of JB? The purpose for install TWRP is for remove CWM Recovery and can update to Kitkat version. And another question, the firmware which you are talking about is emui 3.0 kitkat?
Thanks for the reply!
Hello,
I flashed a stock rom for my zenfone 2 Z00A without any problem but because I have installed TWRP on my phone to test out cm12.1 and cm13 I can no longer do the OTA as they come in. I have searched through the forums and have tried to edit the OTA file as described but it always errors and won't install. I did a backup when I first installed TWRP, if I use that recovery file will it bring back my phone to stock or will I still have TWRP? If i will is there a way to remove TWRP and go back to the stock recovery so I can install the OTA's the normal way?
Thank you,
David
use fastboot to install the stock recovery

Or edit ota to be compatible with TWRP. It's a 30 second procedure.
Thank you, after searching I finally found on asus's own blog a post that had the link to the proper recovery.IMG file. Thank you both for the help. David

Hi David. Can you supply the link to the stock rom that you used and the recovery image please?Did you flash anything else besides these two?
Hello,
What I did was;
1) download the latest full firmware from this site http://www.asus-znfone.com/2016/01/full-firmware-zenfone-2-ze551ml-V2.20.40.160.html and installed it using twrp as I would any custom rom.
2) After I went through all the set up I was alerted to a system update. Before I did the update I replaced TWRP with the restore.img from this link
https://mega.nz/#F!k4MHiAgL!dVuOKeH3eokcwPSNI79ffw!Z1N1EbKa using fastboot flash recovery recovery.img command.
3) After rebooting it is possible to do all the OTA updates.
Hope this helps. David Waldie
