I've noticed that many in this forum for the Honor 7x / Mate SE want to try a few ROMS, and then eventually go back to stock - Some just want to go back to stock. I had my own issues and thankfully there were others to help along the way. This method does not use fastboot to flash partitions, it uses TWRP, so the assumption is you have a working TWRP. Also I am not responsible for any bricks, I am just explaining what I did to get back to stock (And based on all the issues people are having, I'm staying there)
If you've tried a Treble ROM or others, the route I took to get back to stock was as follows:
1.) Download your firmware from Firmware finder or the Pro-TeamMT website:
http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=bnd-l34&firmware_page=0
In this example, mine is the Mate SE..
You should have downloaded 3 files. The important one we want right now is the Update.zip - Extract this file. You should see UPDATE.APP within this folder.
2.) Download the Huawei extractor software by worstenbrood:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454
3.) Use this software to extract the files from the Update.App - You may need to disable the Checksum checks under "Settings". When you select the UPDATE.APP file, you should get a list of the files that are compiled or compressed into the app. The main 4 files you want are Ramdisk, Vendor, System, and if you'd like the Stock recovery (Recovey_Ramdisk). Copy these files to your SD card.
4.) Assuming you still have the functioning TWRP, reboot into TWRP and wipe everything but the SD card.
5.) Flash the images to the appropriate partition, Ramdisk = Ramdisk, Vendor = Vendor Image, and System = System Image - Ensure you're flashing the image partitions. Ramdisk is necessary if you've ever rooted or used Magisk.
At this point you should be able to reboot and get back into stock...But you'll notice Themes do not work properly..That's because you've wiped / formatted data at some point in TWRP, and now the Data/hw_int has been wiped. You can fix this by flashing the update on top of itself by the instructions in this thread (Thanks to mrmazak):
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-7x/how-to/guide-honor-7x-flash-oreo-update-t3781649
See the "Flash update while on Oreo"...This has worked twice now to get me back my themes after wiping /data.
I counted on my TWRP backup to get me back to stock after trying a Treble ROM, and I ended up bricked. So hopefully this helps someone!
PS, if anyone has more to add this this, the more help the better.
Wait, wouldn't the recovery be the file "RECOVERY_RAMDIS.img"
???

You are correct...That is the name of the actual image in the UPDATE.APP, but I was basing the name off of the actual partition.
Corrections, please add to original post

Just learned today that you can't flash Vendor through Fastboot, so you have to copy all the necessary files onto a SD card or USD OTG.
The files needed are: "SYSTEM.img" "RECOVERY_RAMDIS.img" and "VENDOR.img"
Flash them through twrp in the required partitions, the partition names are literally the file names.

System image can fail too...that's why I said to flash everything in TWRP...Plus, flashing the update on-top of itself will not only give you theming back, but stock recovery.

Is this working ? Did you try ? I'm on RR ROM and couldn't get adb recognize my device. This is my only hope to return to stock as of now.

Yes, I tried it. It works flawlessly.
How can I get themes to work? I don't understand the original post, it makes no sense when explaining how to get themes to work properly. I do not know what to do with the link provided in the original post.

What part are you stuck on?
Essentially mrmazak created a flashable file that will take the 3 firmware files you download and flash them on top of your current firmware. This is helpful for doing an update or just reloading the firmware completely (Which is what you're trying to do)...
I'd follow the exact instructions that he's put out on that thread, but the 10,000 ft overview:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-7x/how-to/guide-honor-7x-flash-oreo-update-t3781649
1.) Download files from link for your device
2.) Create a correctly named folder on your SD card, along with those files properly named in that folder (Ensure these files are named properly also.)
3.) Ensure you have the stock recovery on the SD card also.
4.) Copy the "xxx_Update.zip" he created onto your SD
5.) Flash the "xxx_Update.zip"...It will will flash the stock recovery, then boot into update mode and update with the 3 files you downloaded and put into that folder. This will basically "reflash" the firmware and give you back themes.
I would go step by step on his action list and follow them to a "T". I've verified it works perfectly. He also has a "Basic-Instructions" write up in the zip also.
My device build number was BND-L21C185, I bricked my device once but I managed to get it back. Since then I have strange build number which is system 8.0.0.046(063f). Does this method fix it?
This info helped me bring my phone back to life,thank you sir for the step by step instructions.
Found a way to get back to stock without all this hassle lol
So I thought this was the only way to get back to stock... turns out there is a much easier way
This method also enables themes, I checked myself.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-7x/how-to/getting-to-stock-emui-super-easily-t3804722
Is it possible to flash all of the partitions from fastboot?
I have the BND-L34 and I am unsure as to what happened.
I have been running the RROS surdu_petru posted for about 3 weeks now and it was running fine.
2 days ago I grab my phone and it was booted into error mode. Now when I try to boot into twrp I get an error code for my recovery. When I try to boot into the system it throws a different error code for boot image.
I have a twrp backup stored on an sd card, and all 3 OTA's I saved back during the June update. I have the Pro-TeamMT app on my pc and have found/extracted every file for the brick method only get the same errors, 1 right after the other.
I am no noob, (although I am not a Senior Member with a giant banner either ) but I have been rooting android devices going on 8 years now, and have never completely bricked any of them.
My last 2 phones were Oneplus 1 and Oneplus 3, so I am familiar with flashing all the partitions using fastboot. But with those phones there were about 9 different individual flashes that needed to be done in a particular order.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Hi
I have a problem with my Honor 7X L21.
Because online update dose not work for this model I decided to updated my smartphone offline.
I downloaded Oreo update file
Unlock my phone
install twrp
update phone
every thing is going well until here
then I decided to root my phone but I saw there is no twrp on my phone
I search and I found a thread here that show how install twrp with adb use recovery ramdisk.
I install twrp on recovery ramdisk and try to root my phone. its OK but when my phone want to start its stuck on google page "just a sec..."
I boot my device on twrp and I did factory reset but the problem was still exist.
then I decided to flash update again.
I copy update file on SD card and wright code on twrp
but at the end when I reboot the recovery, twrp except stock recovery came up and my stock recovery was gone.
I reboot the system but Its loop on this page that says:
ERROR MODE
Attention!
Please update system again.
Error!
Func NO : 11 (recovery image)
Error NO : 2 (load failed!)
Please help me!!!
I try to install stock recovery and twrp with adb and huawei multi tools but it didn't work.
it shows:

Doing the update second time is fine, and best way to restore full stock. But you needed to use Oreo version of no-check recovery and the Oreo partition to flash it to.
So if still able to get into twrp, can try with correct no-check recovery and correct partition it's flashed to.
Also
With multi tool , make sure you put check mark on emui 8. Up in upper right corner. That way it uses Oreo partition names and file not nougat.
The partition length over message usually means nougat file or partition name used on Oreo system

On the extractor app. On options tab uncheck the verify header option, it should extract then.
Then perhaps first do these three partitions.
Kernel.img
Ramdisk.img
Then
twrp_ramdisk or for stock use recovery_ramdisk

I ever have similiar problem with you dude, but it's solved now, if you always stuck on " its OK but when my phone want to start its stuck on google page "just a sec...", its call google accont verification, i'll by bypass with this script, save as to .bat and put on adb folder
adb devices
adb shell content insert --uri content://settings/secure --bind name:s:user_setup_complete --bind value:s:1
adb shell am start -n com.google.android.gsf.login/
adb shell am start -n com.google.android.gsf.login.LoginActivity
pause
in fastboot type:
fastboot -w
after all it's works to me to bypass google account verification
and if now your problem is
ERROR MODE
Attention!
Please update system again.
Error!
Func NO : 11 (recovery image)
Error NO : 2 (load failed!)
i solve with re-flash system from this
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=673956719939830152
fastboot flash system system.img
and doing TWRP Flashing
https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=25826#downloads
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk complete_twrp_ramdisk.img
and voila my problem solved..

So now is locked frp. Does phone have twrp or stock now.?
I think when you tried to install the oreo update for second time, you followed same tutorial as the first time. And that made you problem worse. The tutorial has you flash no-check recovery to 2 partition by block number. 22 & 29. On nougat that is "recovery" and "recovery2". On Oreo partion table it is "reserved2" & "erecovery_vendor"
I don't know how to fix imei. Have hope that if to ucan have a full ota install , maybe can be fixed.
There is available a "service rom" (used to fix most all problem) for Europe region with l21.
I can share link to site with service rom if you want , but I have not used it myself so not gonna be much help with it.
Link is to rusian language page. Google should translate for you.

in summery. because i have been going back and forth in multiple different groups, multiple problem, i cant remember it all.
you have broken system, from failed root attempt, followed by failed update.
device condition is as follows.
--system not booting
--stock recovery loads
--fastboot/bootloader loads, but is in frp lock status
options are limited, at best.
I think "dload" method with service rom is best.
other option is maybe paid service like dc-unlock. But I can recall some note on there service about frp-unlock, that can only be used on device with working system. (of course if was working system, wouldn't need dc-unlock)

what about the "about phone" screen
what does it show for version?
If is all stock you should be able to go into deveolper options and enable "oem unlock". If it is greyed out and cannot switch it. Try First to remove google account (all accounts ). and reboot. See if can change then. If not, try Second to do "fastboot oem relock [enter your bootloader code here]
after relock and rebooted oem switch should be enabled again.
****RELOCK IS ONLY ADVISED IF 100% STOCK ROM****
otherwise relock could make more trouble.
Still not sure how to get IMEI back even if unlocked frp though.
**And please stop posting in other threads , the same problem , because you are getting help here.
your post in recovery thread is off topic to that thread and just makes the forum harder to maintain.

Hello I have a Huawei Mate-SE (with bootloader unlocked and rooted with magisk v16). I have been using the android custom rom RRO v6 (RR-O-v6.0.0-20180401-bnd-OpenKirin) for around a month now. I got this exact same problem about the White Screen saying "ERROR MODE Attention...." since I updated the Magisk to latest version (from the installed application) and rebooted my phone. SInce I rebooted I am getting that same error which makes the phone loops into it for a few times and then it loads the Huawei eRecovery that offers me some options that I am not sure what would do to my phone.
I have been trying to connect to adb tools/fastboot but it doesn't detect the phone and im pretty sure I have the device drivers installed on my computer since nothing have changed in my pc for a month now since I flashed RRO on it.
Is there any other mode besides recovery that would allow me to connect adb/fastboot to it? Or does anyone knows how should I proceed?

I have seen where the magisk update screwed up and patches the kernel intead of the ramdisk.
Power off , long press power button.
Hold volume down and plug in USB from PC.
This should cause it to boot into fastboot mode.
Then flash the stock kernel. And the stock or first patched ramdisk. (From earlier root)

Hi thank you I was able to finally detect the device now. I am unsure about the kernel is that the recovery.img or system.img files I downloaded (i saved every file i used when I installed the rom) or do I need to look for the kernel somewhere else? I do have the complete_twrp_ramdisk.img file though.
Edit, I did more research and found the stock kernel is withing the boot.img file which I dont have so I looked up for the official BND-L34 oreo update and im currently downloading to extract the stock boot.img from the update.zip and flash it. Since that download was going to take me a while anyway i tried flashing the twrp recovery file without success (didn't changed anything) so i guess I should follow the instructions you gave me by flashing the kernel first then the twrp recovery.

if you were on oreo. then there is not a boot.img, instaed there is seperate ramdisk.img and kernel.img.
i have all the files already extracted for oreo and a backup from nougat as well.
https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=265998
make sure you know what you are doing before flashing.
for example. on oreo the boot and recovery share one kernel image. SO if kernel is messed up you will not be able to boot "boot" or "recovery"
Hey everyone,
After updating to the last stable version of xiaomi.eu I wanted to reflash magisk but when I boot into recovery I'm not asked for any password yet my data is still encrypted.
I tried running #twrp decrypt password in the terminal but it fails.

Why don't you install Magisk by patching Boot image from Magisk Manager and flashing the patched image from Fastboot.
Just for Magisk, you don't need (to bother with) TWRP

You flash the patched Boot image from Fastboot, so Recovery (and other partitions) remains the one you have currently installed.
Also, just patching in Magisk Manager does not affect either Recovery, Boot (Vendor, etc)
When patching Boot image by Magisk Manager make sure you take the options:
-Preserve ADM dm-verity: YES
-Preserve force encryption: YES
-Recovery mode: NO

You flash the patched Boot image from Fastboot, so Recovery (and other partitions) remains the one you have currently installed.
Also, just patching in Magisk Manager does not affect either Recovery, Boot (Vendor, etc)

For the Boot image you have to patch boot.img extracted from zip/recovery package of your stock ROM
But you can also backup Boot partition by TWRP and then let Magisk Manager patch the backup boot.emmc.win file
Is it safe to assume that Tom403 didn't find any love at the end of the encrypted rainblow? I JUST WANT to verify, This IS the same situation that used to be remedied by deleting locksettings.db and a files with .key extension?? No such luck for anymore, wow, what a setup for future-screwing your users Google!! Dicks

Okay, I may have found a lightbulb somewhere in the tunnel that may be whats required for others as well to unencrypt when deleting .keyfiles is no longer an option having version greater than PIE. It's in the form of in a recovery log from a recent, perhaps backup attempt, that states the version of Orange Fox recovery I had (11.0) and also says fbe encryption in use and info like the following that looks very promising... I'd really appreciate if someone that knows more than me to let me know if I'm on the right path and guide me in if so... heres part of the LOG that gives me hope --

Hey everyone,
After updating to the last stable version of xiaomi.eu I wanted to reflash magisk but when I boot into recovery I'm not asked for any password yet my data is still encrypted.
I tried running #twrp decrypt password in the terminal but it fails.
Has anyone here encounter the same problem?

I used the OOS Updates tracker telegram channel: https://t.me/OPUpdatesTracker and pulled the full-update from there.
If you want to manipulate it on your own after that you can clone this: https://github.com/vm03/payload_dumper to decrypt the payload.bin into workable partition images. That's what I do after a major update and/or when I need to patch a boot.img manually or just need a clean copy of the current boot.img.
Thank you very much!!! You saved my day. I exported the new boot.img but I forgot to patch and already made the update.

fastboot boot magisk_patched.img
fastboot flash boot_a magisk_patched.img
fastboot flash boot_b magisk_patched.img
fastboot reboot
Don't know what I'm missing, but booting gets stuck at the animation after fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img. Did the same to boot_a, stuck. Did to boot_b, stuck.
To get my phone working again, had to fastboot flash boot boot.img with unpatched. Now I'm running unrooted until this gets figured out.
Even tried patching the working boot.img with Magisk to use but same issue. This morning, GPay told me no more NFC payments.
Maybe the problem is this, at the end of the log from patching boot.img:
Code:

I used both the provided modded image and patched my own and both did not boot. only the unpatched one works

An update. Found out that if I downgrade (if even possible), I would have to wipe /data. Therefore, I gave OOS11 another chance: flashed patchedboot.img, wiped /data, and it booted! Also able to Magisk root, EdXposed, and used GPay NFC twice today. Pretty happy despite the bugs.

Need help. I used AFT to flash April - good, I rebooted and flashed magisk patched image made with stable 25.2 - good, flashed Kirisakura Raviantha Kernel v1.0.2 - good. Magisk said update to 26.1 so I did. I did direct install to update to 26.1. My P6P rebooted ok. power off and now stuck in fastboot mode showing device state= unlocked, boot slot: a, Enter reason: boot failure. I've tried to flash stock boot.img to both slots and the new april bootloader.img to both slots....the phone won't boot past fastboot screen. It won't go into recovery mode either. Please help!!!!!!!!

Try using Android Flash Tool to get back to stock.
I tried. it failed.
Flash FailedDevice failed to boot into userspace fastboot. This usually indicates that the build you are flashing does not boot. Device serial logs can be helpful to determine the root cause of the failure

tried that as well
fastboot: error: Failed to boot into userspace fastboot; one or more components might be unbootable.
I'm not sure of the commands. Fastboot flash recovery "recovery.img" , same with the other files inside the zip inside the stock rom zip file
If i ran into this issue I'd try fastboot -w and fastboot update a custom rom.

Most need to be flashed in fastbootd I think. So to get there, fastboot reboot fastboot. You can flash recovery( boot, dtbo and vendor boot) in regular fastboot. That should fix everything because it will fully get rid of magisk
I used AFT and forced flashed partitions / wiped (kept bootloader unlock) and it's alive again!
Simply out of curiosity - what made you update magisk? Are there "must have" features in the new release?

I'm all for change but I don't enjoy being a guinea pig .lol
If I have an application ( magisk 25.2) that works flawlessly I will hold off a few days prior to jumping on the band wagon ( unless the new version has something I really need) - more often than not there are issues. I prefer to read about them rather than experiencing on my own skin. Hence my question.

It's not a question of knowledge but rather the things that are beyond ones control - possibility of bugs in the code. For example look what happened recently with platform tools.
@jcp2 With all the things you flash, you should also know what that is. Then it would be much easier for you to figure it out why your device is in an unbootable state.
Magisk, Kernel, fastbootd... have one thing in common: your boot.img!
It doesn't make sense to let Magisk patch your boot.img and installing a custom kernel without Magisk installed afterwards. In that case Magisk gets overwritten.
Your fastbootd is only a binary and located in the recovery's /sbin folder. Due to the fact that your P6P is an A/B slot device, your recovery is part of the boot.img.
Flash your stock boot.img from the image-raven-BUILD_NO.zip that you'll find inside your firmware download.
I had already tried flashing stock boot image to both slots. I had to use AFT and force flash all partions. I'm up and running/ rooted. I just have to reinstall apps .
Android flash tool is by far the easiest way to go for sure. Happy you got it fixed
{Mod edit: Quoted post has been deleted. Oswald Boelcke}
6. fast boot flash
That ADB Command does nothing.
The correct command is:
fastboot flash boot boot.img if you want to flash the boot.img
{Mod edit: Quoted post has been deleted. Oswald Boelcke}
You should give us the correct command. The syntax is (see fastboot -h):
Code:
flash PARTITION [FILENAME] Flash given partition, using the image from
$ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT if no filename is given.
you can't use "fast boot" for a binary that's called "fastboot(.exe)".
