Dear Friend ... Just try installing an other Recovery Using Fastboot ... I recommend you to tryout TWRP 2.7.1 which works like a charm for me ... you can also try MultiROM which has a stable Recovery ... Goodluck

Can't install TWRP after updating to Nougat

I recently updated my EVA-L09 to Android 7.0. Before that, I was rooted and I had TWRP. After I updated, I obviously would need to install TWRP and root again, but when I install it with SRK Tool or even with fastboot, it always goes back to stock recovery. I already tried to flash it by "recovery.img" as well.

that would be because the TWRP in SRK Tools is only for android 6 (EMUI 4.1 - 4.1.1) and not for android 7 (EMUI 5 - 5.1)
the recovery that you need to use in order for twrp to be installed is this one https://github.com/OpenKirin/android_device_huawei_eva/releases/download/3.1.0/twrp-3.1.0-0-eva.img
then once its installed boot up your phone and then type in "adb reboot recovery" and that will then boot your device into TWRP 3.1.0.0

Thank you, it worked!
Another question, but now related to SuperSU.
I am with the 2.79 version of SuperSU and I downloaded the binary .zip of this version and flashed it by twrp. The problem is that it keeps saying ""There is no SU binary installed and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem!".

I already got it to work. Thanks btw

Could you post how perhaps? I had the same problem as you - the TWRP posted about fixed my first problem but now I can't get SuperSU to install either. Would be interested to know how you fixed it!

I solved it by this post https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70927601&postcount=456
I ended up not using super su but If you want you can use it instead of the one suggested there
By flashing the file provided in the post, I managed to automatically get access to super user (root)

About rooting and future update

Hello,
I was wondering, I'd like to root my OP3T , following the guide w/e here or on OnePlus forum. But will be my flashed update as stable as if I keep it on stock recovery ? ( Since people w/e they have OTA on stock or flashing new update on custom recovery )
Besides, I'm already on Nougat 7.1.1 if I root, I won't lose it right ?
And I looked for the right TWRP and the right SuperSu but on their guide are for MM 3.5.1 and not on N 7.1 so where can I find the right version ? on their Website ?
So thank you very much for your help !

If you root your phone, the System Update app will detect it and download the full ROM for each update rather than the partial update. This occurs regardless of the status of your recovery. Since root modifies partitions that the user generally does not have access to, the updater will always overwrite all non-/data partitions during the update. Plus, when you flash an update, it removes root anyways.
My advice is keep TWRP as a custom recovery. When an update is released, you can still go into the Update menu in Settings and download the full ROM (it will do so automatically if it detects root). Then just flash the full ROM in TWRP, flash whatever you used to root, wipe cache, and you're done. If something goes wrong, you can always use TWRP to restore a prior backup. The same can't be done for the stock recovery.

Ok thank you very much for those informations !
Still, do you know which version I should download ? Since I'm on 7.1.1 , thread only shows for 7.0
I searched and I found : SuperSU 2.79 and for TWRP it's the 3.0.4-1 ? Are they right ?

SU binary occupied

Hello,
I have a Meizu terminal, which you can root just from a setting in the rom stock. Today I changed from Flyme version , Meizu customization layer, and when I went to install SuperSU, it said SU binay occupied.
I have saw the solution to this that is to flash SuperSU.zip from the recovery but this phone does not have any developed recovery, just the stock recovery which dont allow to flash zip files.
The Meizu's root manager works a bit strange and not always launches applications with root. So this error has happened to someone? Or have anybody any solution?
Thanks in advance

I can grant root permision to Termux terminal, any way to run as root from there?
