I had a similar situation and called Huawei service centre to send me labelled envelope to send for repair. But soon, I wanted to give it few tries. Within few hours I brought my device to life.
I don't know the ways you tried to get on to bootloader mode (download mode). Once you get in to download mode then you can bring your device back to working.
Connect USB cable with your PC. Press volume down button firmly and now plug the USB cable in to your device. Keep pressing down "volume down" button until you get in to download mode. Flash stock recovery (the version I had when bought my device was EVA-L09C432B166).
Copy on to your external sdcard the dload folder having full stock ROM suitable to your device (MM 6.0 version and not naugat version). I would suggest to use PC to copy dload folder to your external sdcard and then load it back on to your device.
Now press volume up and down button together and press power button. When you see Huawei logo, keep pressing volume up and down button together until you see screen showing update starts.

Copy the entire dload folder in to sdcard. You can also use through other phone and use the external sd card. It should work. As long as you know how to get in to fastboot screen your phone is live and you don't have to be panic.

You are nearly there. Check the UPDATE.APP file size. If it is around 2gb then it is a full firmware. All you have to do is, create a folder as dload and copy UPDATE.APP in to the folder. Also, you may need META-INF files inside dload folder (may be update works without this META-INF). Try without this META-INF. I have sent META-INF in zipped file. You can download and unzip in to dload folder.
Good luck.

p7 doesn't have MTK cpu...so there isn't a scatter file and also sp flash tool doesn't work
with update.app and stock recovery you can force the rom's flash by putting the update.app inside a folder in sd card (called dload), shutdown the phone and then pressing concurrently vol+ vol- and power button

I tried that, but unsuccessfully. I placed the dload folder on SD card with update.app inside it and went into fastboot mode with the vol + vol- and power button but when i choose update from SD card and select dload folder it doesnt show me the update.app inside. Folder dload is showing empty

if everything it's ok pressing the three button the phone should automatically start in EMUI recovery, flash the fw and reset the internal memory without the need to select anything...

You need to use stock recovery
Not twrp or cwm recovery

1. Download the stock Rom from: http://consumer.huawei.com/tr/mobile-phones/support/downloads/detail/ascend-p7-tr.htm?id=76245
2. Connect your phone to a computer while in twrp and create a folder on the sdcard called "dload"
3. Unpack the rom and place it to the dload folder.
4. Hold down all three buttons of your phone to peform a forced update.
5. It will take some time to boot for the fist time, so be sure to be patient.
That should fix the problem and let me know if you happen to run into any more issues.

How to repair soft bricks and bootloops

Im writing this because i have gone through this and realised some things and basics about this phone.As Meticulus has wrote on his page about dumping files,that is the key of getting back to safety.Usually people here get stuck while getting back from Nougat to MM.So most important things to have :
-backup of oem info(i will post link later of flashable zip for l21 model) (or someone else's files but for specified model(l21 can flash someone else's l21 oem info)
link : C4320 DUALSIM OEMINFO https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3sZyHMlYDO0S1c2Y1lNMlJaVXM/view credits to guy who made this file i have just uploaded it
-dump of system and boot (you can find tutorial on Meticulus page)
-downloaded stock MM ROM and extracted UPDATE.APP
-Revolution nougat recovery
-Meticulus TWRP
So lets say you are in bootloop and there is nothing you can do to get your phone back to life.
*if you are on nougat and dont have recovery:
-turn off the device and insert your sd card to PC/laptop and make folder "dload" on sd.
-extract UPDATE.APP from MM ROM package and move it to dload folder
-download revolution nougat recovery and make a path on desktop for example
-connect your usb cable to pc (not phone)
-now (assuming that your device is off) hold volume down for few seconds and connect to our usb cable and phone will boot to bootloader/rescue mode
-open cmd on pc
-write ~ fastboot flash recovery path/recovery.img (path should be folders where is recovery.img and recovery.img name of img)
-when done,hold power and volume up power and phone will go to recovery
-if you havent done that yet,move dload folder and flashable oem info to sd card
-flash oeminfo and turn off the device
-now hold volume up + volume down + power button to install that update from sd card
phone should boot now
*If you have nougat recovery :
-turn off the device and insert your sd card to PC/laptop and make folder "dload" on sd.
-extract UPDATE.APP from MM ROM package and move it to dload folder
-flash oem info and turn off the device
-now hold volume up + volume down + power button to install that update from sd card
phone should boot now
*Now if the device is still stuck in bootloop and now you dont have recovery:
-download meticulus recovery and extract recovery.img
-move your dump files to sd card (folder name meticulus)
-if your phone is off again hold volume down for few seconds than connect usb cable
-open cmd and type : fastboot flash recovery path/recovery.img (path should be folders where is recovery.img and recovery.img name of img)
-when done hold volume up + power button until phone gets into TWRP
-go to advanced/extras/restore dump and wait while device is restoring your stock system and boot img
after done reboot your device and it should boot without any problem
write down other ways of bootloops so we can fix it together

Hello, go to this link mega:#fm/i5x1SQiD is downloaded to the folder where there is inside another 'dload' folder that you will copy to a microSD which in turn will need to enter in P9 Plus. It 'a file that I downloaded from this forum, but I do not remember which thread. Then restart your phone by holding down the volume button in the center (Ne below and above it). At that point it will start loading and at the end will reboot or do you start again. This allows you to change the microSD with another in which there is always the dload folder with the file corresponding to your update.app P9 Plus firmware. Repeat the reboot and hold the volume button. Unless smoothly you should go back an Android Marshmallow.

What recovery is he using? twrp or recovery?
To help some more informations would be great to make shure he won t brick his phone there are also other options like installing twrp and flash a custom rom aso...
I think you talk about recovering your phone? And not the recovery partition?
What is your current build, and what are you trying to recover to? You probably just have to find the right ROM for it to work.
