what version of twrp are you running? do you have a nandroid backup that you could restore? sometimes the partitions can get messed up during an update. if nothing helps, just follow this unbrick guide which will revert your phone completely back to stock, with all the storage partitions intact.
3.0.2-1

yeah, everyone's got that one, but there are many versions of it usually a number, like 3.0.2-1 (22) for example, and each one build for specific cases. except you got it from the official twrp web, then there shouldn't really be problems with cm14.1
what about nandroid? can you restore one?
do you have any idea how to boot it?

I had the same situation. You get out of this by fastboot flashing cm recovery, booting to it, then flash twrp back in fastboot. I think the ota doesnt fully work with twrp.
Flash the modified twrp from the second post in this forum

Hi, I manually updated my honor 7x (BND AL10 INDIAN) to EMUI 8 following the other post in this forum and after that I went on to flash TWRP recovery again from another post "complete_twrp_ramdisk.img" so that I could take full Nand backups and what not. But Here's the problem, When I try to flash the stock recovery back "BND_RECOVERY_NOcheck" which I flashed during upgrading to EMUI 8, it says "size of image is large than target device"
I tried this using boot fastboot command "fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery.img" and also using the TWRP. It doesn't work either way. So I'm basically stuck with TWRP. The reason I want stock recovery is because
1. I can install OTA UPDATES on EMUI 8 (I actually got one)
2. I may want to just be on complete stock like locked bootloader, sock recovery etc...
Could any one help?? Maybe I need the right stock recovery file ?
BTW It's my first post ever so please go easy if I did any mistakes.
Could you share your twrp? Thanks!

"BND_RECOVERY_NOcheck" is nouget stock recovery.
Oreo update replaces all the partitions, including the recovery that you flashed in order to install the update.
The stock recovery can be extracted from "update.app" , the one inside the oreo "updateL22.zip"

Hi, I'm downloading that UPDATEL22.ZIP right now and Can I extract this with any unzip/unrar program? What will be the name of that recovery? is it going to be "recovery"? The thing is I've never extracted anything from a ROM so I have not idea.

you should already have the update.zip.
use same one you "manualy" installed.
winrar did not work for me but 7-zip did.
there is also rom extractor built into "multi-tool" and stand alone extractor around here some where.
I found it here
the name is just like the twrp you flashed and just like the partition that you flashed. (recovery_ramdisk.img)

Hi, Thanks for all your replies. After doing a bit of search, I managed to get it extracted on my android using zarchiver app and I copied the recovery_ramdisk.img from that BNDL22.ZIP and when I tried flashing it using the fastboot command "fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery.img" It went ok and It got installed but when I tried to boot into recovery, I got this screen "ERROR MODE" ATTENTION ETC.. I don't know where I'm going wrong?

I dont know.
The new way to boot to recovery was written in other thread as "hold both volume buttons & power button"
not sure if it was a problem with extraction or not, but attached is the recovery I extracted. do not have it installed. I dont even have oreo installed., I'm still pulling files together and reading the update-scripts and trying to convince myself if it is worth trying it.
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=262391
I have now jumped on board and did oreo conversion on L24, then flashed RR. I went and installed the oreo recovery, then back to this stock recovery. It worked fine for me.

Hey bro thefe are too many files there will it flash through fastboot or twrp and how to flash one by one pls help me
Hello all,
thanks for all the info in this thread.
I bricked my Honox 7x (BND-LC21) by trying to go Oreo.
The installation went halfway through, but now I can't complete (missing info howto flash bootloader / kernel) and I also can't go back as the partition layout has already changed to oreo style.
Steps done so far:
- unlocked boot loader
- installed twrp
- extract system image and recovery image from oreo update zip
getting the phone in fastboot mode i can successfully run
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdisk.img (i can also flash old recoveries this way, but none of them will successfully boot into recovery mode)
fastboot flash system system.img
either way, the system will not boot afterwards.
how do I manually flash bootloader / kernel on the oreo partition layout?
erecovery and hisuite won't recover my phone either...
Any hints appreciated

Can I flash just the stock recovery to my phone and if so is it the recover_ramdis.img, or do I need to flash them all. I'm on mostly stock bnd-l24. Unlocked bootloader TWRP and magisk for root. There's a new update and i wanted to flash stock recovery so I could update.

I was on nougat on my L21_hw_eu before i tried to upgrade manualy to oreo. i tried the twrp and terminal method and my phone started upgading. It failed at 72% saying "update verification failed". I lost my stock rom and bricked my phone.
Then i manualy flashed different Update.app images and was able to unbrick my phone .
I tried lineage OS and stock oreo.
Problems are:
1: I cant factory reset my phone using stock recovery it fails at 24%
2: FingerPrint Sensor won't work except for gestures (in Stock oreo. works in LineageOs)
3: Themes dont work
4: Flash light don't work
4: CAMERA is not responding. in both roms
in lineageOs everything works perfectly except Camera.

If you only have extracted images flashed from update.app, then you do not have the full rom installed.
You should run either hurupdater of HWOTA again to get full emui8 installed.

As far as I know (which is not that far). You need three images to be correct for recovery to load on oreo based device.
1. recovery_ramdisk.img
2. kernel.img
3. recovery_vbmeta
try to flash those in fastboot first. and see if they complete without error.
then if they do flash, try to boot into recovery. (try with stock first-- can try TWRP after if this works)

Hi, did you ever manage to solve this? I have the exact same problem.
You should really freeze updates with twrp.
You now need to fastboot the stock rom or flash a custom rom to get out of this situation.
In twrp mode, attach to pc and backup your internal files first.

Flashing rom again did not help with this, the problem is in the misc partition.
I have Honor 7x BND-L24 (USA version) which is stuck at a screen which says:
ERROR MODE
Attention!
Please update system again
Error!
Func NO : 10 (boot image)
Error NO : 2 (load failed)
Before this screen I had EMUI 5.1 with Android 7.0 installed version BND-L24C567B150CUSTC567D001 and TWRP custom recovery. I wanted to do OTA update so went and installed stock recovery and that somehow damaged my boot image. After factory reset it goes to the screen mentioned above. I can't even turn it off anymore.
I can still boot into fastboot mode, I can still go into recovery by holding both volume buttons and power button but the install always fails and brings me back to the same error screen. Is there any way to fix the boot image error?
Fastboot flashing does not work anymore and gives errors:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
target reported max download size of 471859200 bytes
sending 'boot' (15170 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.395s]
writing 'boot'...
FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.406s
The bootloader is unlocked:
Code:
fastboot oem get-bootinfo
...
(bootloader) unlocked
OKAY [ 0.008s]
finished. total time: 0.009s
I have also seen in the forums that a dload method (creating a dload folder in the sd card and adding UPDATE.APP file into it) could be used to recover, but it always stops at 5% and fails. Maby I am doing it wrong because the stock ROM has two .zip files (update.zip and update_full_BND-L24_hw_usa.zip) and they both have the UPDATE.APP file in it. If someone could give me a guide on how to propertly use the dload method I would like to try it.
Any additional comments or solutions to try unbricking the phone will be appreciated. Thank you in advance.
P.S. after searching the xda forums it seems that for the dload method I would require a specific rom called the service ROM dload. I have tried searching for it but could only find it for BND-L21, if anyone has a service ROM for BND-L24C567 (USA version) please give me a link, I would like to try the dload method with it.
SOLVED !!!
Thread can be closed. If anyone need the solution on how to fix this issue just send me a message.
Hey how'd you fix it dude? I accidentally broke my boot image and im getting the same error as you did. the only thing i can do is use root shell in stock recovery. I'm trying to figure out how to flash twrp (Ice cream sandwich) to recovery2 but so far no luck.
Can you help me out?

Is your bootloader unlocked and frp unlocked?
if yes then:
Get the stock recovery, boot, system and etc. by going into the OpenKirin website, there is a nice guide there in the support section on how to download and extract the stock recovery and boot images and etc.
Hold down the volume down key and plug in the usb cable. Use fastboot to flash in the stock recovery.
flash them using "fastboot flash" command with the adb and fasboot tool.
if not then:
download Chimera tool.
Pay for 3 day trial (~12 eur)
Do system restore in the application, worked for me. BND-L24 USA version, I now have EMUI 9.1.0 by installing BND-L21 9.1.0.141(C432E2) ROM using the Chimera tool.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for the advice! I repeated the process you provided and so im not bricked, I have all the partitions of ice cream sandwich. The only problem is, the dload method and upgrade from sd card thing stops at 5% and when i use dload, it says image verification failed, because i was trying to upgrade to Nougat. I have the bootloader and stock recovery though. How did you upgrade to pie after doing this?
Also how is pie? maybe I'll install the pie rom for L21 and use english. I actually intall the AL10 once haha. It was horrible. Almost nothing worked and it tried to prevent booting into recovery or bootloader.
Thanks!

The only problem is, the dload method and upgrade from sd card thing stops at 5% and when i use dload, it says image verification failed, because i was trying to upgrade to Nougat. I have the bootloader and stock recovery though. How did you upgrade to pie after doing this?
Also how is pie? maybe I'll install the pie rom for L21 and use english. I actually intall the AL10 once haha. It was horrible. Almost nothing worked and it tried to prevent booting into recovery or bootloader.
Thanks!

dload method does NOT work on this particular phone. I have tried it multiple times.
Best way is to find the ROM that works for your phone. I have tried a lot of the ROMs for this phone including all of the ones in the OpenKirin website, like the Ressurect, Lineage and etc. those do not work, it just bootloops. But the L21 worked perfectly, only issue is that you need to flash every partition (system, boot, recovery, ram_disk and etc.) and then do a factory reset. If you do not do a factory reset after the installation in will not boot.
Just go to Firmware finder, get EMUI 9.1 ROM, extract all .img files and flash them in using fastboot.
Good luck!

Thanks for the advice! I'll try it soon, but as far as i know, from here in ice cream sandwich, it says image verification failed when flashing recovery and other partitions except not system or boot and others for some reason.
Actually I've previously installed RR and Lineage ROMs--maybe you forgot that they must not be flashed in TWRP? Anyway, thanks! Pie sounds like it must be the best option here. I'll go ahead and install it. Oh, and just so you know, the dload method can work on the Honor 7x but you have to flash a patched version of the recovery called BND-RECOVERY-NoCheck.img, except I only have the oreo one so it can't help me.
Thanks!

Hi, I have a BND-L34 (mate se) and could use some help. I'm not very good with rooting but I followed the directions found here
https://www.desinerd.co.in/how-to-huawei-mate-se-root-twrp-recovery/
which was mentioned from this XDA post about unlocking the bootloader and rooting
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-7x/how-to/how-to-unlock-huawei-bootloader-removal-t3780903
So I was able to write the TWRP from the guide on the "recovery_ramdisk" but not the second partition like the guide mentioned. So if try to boot into TWRP I get an error 11 and error 2.
Phone appears to be working otherwise.
I suspect that if I were to ever factory reset the phone I would be in the same situation as you were. Could you tell me how you flashed the EMUI 9 files? Like what the commands were? thanks in advance.

@teatimecrumpet we have the same phones . . . .
Ok so, first, are you on Oreo or something lower? If you're on oreo I have the proper TWRP img for the ramdisk partition. If you flashed your TWRP to recovery but not recovery_ramdisk, I recommend reflashing the stock recovery and then flashing mine to ramdisk. But you shouldn't worry, you can't even factory reset anyway, if you've overwritten your recovery. So if you say your phone's fine now it should continue to work. I have not yet upgraded to Pie like @DBxda7x suggested, but I will soon.
In any case, here's the TWRP you must flash to the ramdisk.

Hey Krimson, thanks for the reply. It's been awhile since I had that error...it's a bit hazy. But I'm on oreo now and am trying to either downgrade back to nougat or try to flash oreo again. Reason being the phone was working fine but now my GPS doesn't really work and I can't pick up any satellites and I kind of need google maps to work.
I tried to use hisuite to upgrade to the newest firmware and downgrade to nougat but no luck it just boots to TWRP.
When I first rooted I know I flashed recovery and recovery2 (but recovery2 turned out to be erecovery on oreo...I remember it was a pain trying to figure out.)
I can't seem to find a simple guide to follow and like I said I'm not very good with this. Do you think you could give me the commands to either flash what you have or do the pie update? I'm totally fine going back to stock and then trying to root Nougat again.
Thanks!

Hey, I know it's been a while, it is pretty hazy. I actually got into a situation where i bricked my phone from trying to downgrade from Pie to Nougat directly. Don't EVER do that. If you're on Oreo now, I know that there are some guides on how to use HWOTA to downgrade to nougat pretty easily. Here's the link:
