Stock recovery always fail

Hi everyone,
I am looking for the way to start this phone directly on the fastboot mode as it is softbricked and it doesn't recognise anything (i can't go on recovery, no matter which one) after I flash a stupid update.app of 500 mb
I think I have to flash system.img boot.img and recovery.img
Thanks in advance, it don't go on the fastboot by himself like he did before, after i flashed twrp
Edit: Found, vol - & power while wired to the computer. Gonna see why i can't access even the stock recovery

Press and hold power and vol(-) buttons ... long time. Of course first remember to connecting device to PC by USB. [emoji14]
Hundreds times...it was described on this forum. [emoji26]

New question, I installed the B121 full stock, rom, kernel, everything like when i baught him first day, except of my unlocked BL.
Now, the stock recovery can't install ANY update.app it always write "FAIL" without getting any %, it just fail as it start. I can't find the way to resolve this.
And I got many questions,
Can the recovery of B121 install the B609 ROM?
Can the B609 install B121? I mean how is the retrocompatibility working with this device/recovery?
In a update.app you got many files, boot.img, system.img but also 3rdmodem.img hifi.img modem.img...
What are those files? Why am I not allowed to flash them? Why I could start my device without flashing every files? They aren't necessary? Or they are generated by the "base rom" constitued of boot/system/cust/recovery/userdata?
Also, do I need to be rooted or something to boot on twrp? I can't boot on any other recovery except from B121, even if i extract one from update.app 609...
Thanks in advance

brick ...

Hello, sorry advanced my English is not good I have a problem with my L-10 ... its brick .. I don't have access recovery and I have wiped the room . thanks you . (I am french).

Enter fastboot mode by holding "Volume down" & " Power" buttons while your cable is connected to the computer.
Make sure that the USB drivers for P7 L-10 are installed by installing HiSuite from official Huawei website.
Now download ADB and fastboot here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24521665358595410
Now you'll need 2 more things - Official P7-L10 ROM & Huawei update extractor which you can download here http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3262545
Once you have all of those we can start the fun with the command line
Once you're in fastboot mode you'll have either green LOCKED screen or red UNLOCKED screen. You need to have a red screen in order to send commands to your phone from fastboot.
Open ADB & Fastboot and type "fastboot devices" (without quotes, always without quotes) - this will tell you if your device is properly detected, if it is, you'll see bunch of numbers and letters.
Now you'll need to extract a couple of .IMG files from your official ROM. This is how you do it. Your official ROM has 1 single file that's called UPDATE.APP. Open Huawei Update Extractor and open UPDATE.APP in it.
You should see a whole list with different .IMG files. You'll need to extract only a couple. BOOT.IMG - RECOVERY.IMG - CUST.IMG - SYSTEM.IMG
Now that you've extracted them all you'll need to start flashing them 1 by 1. This is how we do it
fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.IMG
fastboot flash boot BOOT.IMG
fastboot flash cust CUST.IMG
fastboot flash system SYSTEM.IMG
You can drag and drop the IMG file into fastboot for your conveniance.
Now you need to place the actual ROM in the root of your SDcard.
On your SDcard make a folder called dload and put UPDATE.APP in it.
Now force update by turning off your phone and then power it back on while holding all 3 buttons pressed in. When screen comes on release Power button, but keep holding the other 2 buttons down.
Now your recovery should start wiping and installing the ROM and you should be saved
Let me know if you need more help

I flashed all the images you named, and after that I can't enter in recovery. Tried flashing twrp, still can't enter. Tried with power + vol+, nothing, tried with stock power + vol+vol-, still nothing. And access bootloader I can only with usb connected. Tried from another update.app, same result. Phone unlocked.

Just yesterday i bricked my phone too and i've spend 18 hours unbricking it, until i realised that the version of TWRP is directly related to the version of EMUI that's on your phone. As i was trying to install the old B126 with EMUI 2.3 i had to use TWRP 2.8.1.0. Once i installed it, i was able to enter into recovery and erase all data in orded to start over. Maybe you have the same problem.
EMUI 2.3 - TWRP 2.8.1.0
EMUI 3.0 - TWRP 2.8.7.0
EMUI 3.1 - TWRP 3.0.0.0
Try using TWRP that matches your EMUI version and let me know if it works for you

Well, somehow after posting I got working TWRP and got back to X-Rom, because for some reason, I can't install other custom ROM's, because of infinite bootloop. So I wanted to get back to stock firmware. So I tried all you steps and got bricked. For some reason, when I tried to install stock rom I got, "verifying install package" and after few seconds "FAIL". So I kinda stuck to one ROM

I see that X-Rom is based on B125. Did you try flashing .IMG files from the same ROM or did you use some other?

I finnaly did it, week ago. I downloaded stock rom (don't remember which, but recovery started working). Then I just "forced update" with latest full rom. and now I have B852. :fingers-crossed:
My main problem was that stock recovery would not work, but I managed somehow to get it done and after that point it was all nice and clean. Thanks for helping out!

You have 2 choices with this.
If you can still boot into TWRP,
1. Flash the Beta Update.zip
2. Power off phone.
3. Press up button whilst powering up phone.
4. You will now be in stock recovery and you can perform a factory reset.
5. the device will now boot in to N beta but will be missing the vendor apps.
There is another way to fix if this doesn't work. Tell me if this method works first.
Edit: I just read in the op that you flashed the update and had stock recovery.
The reason it won't boot is because you need to have b322 flashed and you have to factory reset to repair the corrupt file system. To do this follow these instructions.
1. You need to flash the Boot, Recovery and System images from b322 in fastboot.
2. Then enter stock recovery (Vol + and Power)
3. Then factory reset (this is essential as it repairs the file system and enables boot)
4. The device will then boot.
5. (Optional )If you want to go back from the beta you have to flash the rollback.app to b300 through th dload method first then you can flash a Android 6.0 through the dload method.

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

I don't think it is essential but it won't hurt to do it anyway.

I seen you PM. I am not sure it will wok by flashing B182. I think you have to flash B322 first.
Regards

fist you have to flash stock recovery from emui 5(android N) through fastboot.
second , download the rollback package,extract it and put it on dload folder of external storage.
third, turn off the phone , and press vol up + vol down + power button together to enter forced update mode.
if it is successful system will boot and you should flash android M firmware using dload method then u should unlock bootloader,install twrp,wipe /system /cache /data and then flash update.zip(android N) and hw_data of your firmware one after another.
i hope this help you.

still phone is not booting
I redownload b322, extracted Boot.img System.img Recovery.img Recovery2.img and Cust.img with
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454 Update Extractor
Flashed all .img true fastboot
But still nothing
Stuck on bootloader screen "Your device is unlocked, and can't be trusted"
Maybe i need flash some more images from b322.
Its look like phone cant pass bootloader.
Any sugestions?
P.S. Phone still have warranty, but booloader is unlocked
and fastboot oem relock ************** ends with failed.
"Failed - root cant trusted"
Sugestions how to lock it?

I had my phone bricked from testing cm, and going back to stock. My solution was to flash dload and recovery from the 182, followed by dload flash of 182.

@richish
caution : these commands will format the partition
can u use these command ?
"fastboot format /system"
"fastboot format /data"
or "fastboot erase /system"=> this will erase system partition

Phone is live now.
I downloaded DC-Phoenix and bought 15 credits
flashed stock B182 via DC-phoenix and phone booted.
I recomand this apllication for everybody who have similar problems.
THX for everybody who helpped.

How can i sign up for an account, it alway said wrong username or password !:crying:

DC-Phoenix is not cheap but it also cured my phone after bricking it with flashfire where all other methods did not work.
if you use it follow the instructions carefully and do the 2 step flashing although it will work after the first one. if you don`t do the second flash the partition sizes are wrong and a dload update will fail.

Hi everyone
I would like to share the problem that i am having with my p9 , so maybe i can get your help.
Firstly i had L19C185 version and i changed Oeminfo in order to install c636 Beta 7.0 Nougat.
I installed the nougat but then realized that i dont have stock apps in my phone, so by mistakely tried to install TWRP for 6.0 Marshmallow and my problem started here.
Now my phone can not boot. its stuck in Phone is booting now ( the screen when you unlock bootloader after huawei logo) , and its never booting. it stays like that.
I tried to flash rboot.img , recovery.img and System.Img from fast boot. but whenever im trying to flash system.img after boot and recovery.img, a get an error and never succeeded to flash system.img. Im trying to flash these .img files from L19C636b180.
Can you please help me or give me some advice because none of mobile services couldnt fix and flash new software. maybe because they dont know exactly what should they do. and in my country i couldnt find anyofficial huawei service provider.
Please help me how to fix my phone.

I also had serious problems with flashing the thing back to stock.
TWRP was broken too for me.
I've done that to fix it all
The ONLY way that worked for me was
1. Download EVA-L19C636B168 from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/development/rom-stock-rom-eva-l19c636b168-t3419586
2. Download that SRK tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/development/tool-srk-tool-huawei-bootloader-root-t3374068
3. Flash the recovery from the SRK tool, you can do that with the tool or directly via fastboot (i don't know other proper source for the correct recovery img)
4. Put the image EVA-L19C636B168 (UPDATE.app) in the "dload" folder of your sd card
5. Start phone in dload mode (Hold all 3 buttons at start) and let the update do it's job

What about recovery??? Does 3 button combination works? Whats heppens if u hold volup and power button when turning phone on!
Situation looks similar what i had.
Only solution for me was dc-phoenix.
U have tu buy 15 points to flash phone (15eur) But it works.
I'm 99% sure that there are bootloader comands what is same as for dc-phoenix,but i dont know them.

i had bricked my p9 L09 twrp not working noting working only fastboot mode is working plzzz help me in finding boot.img recovery.img system.img

In need of help!!!!

Guys i was on 7.0 VIE-AL10 beta version, but my recovery wasnt working since i tried flashing twrp after flashing 7.0, so i decided to extract the update.app of 7.0, and flash the recovery.img the system.img and the boot.img, when i reboot it said something went wrong on the phone and that to wipe factory reset, i tried that then it said failed at 30% i think my system is dead. So i need someone with knowledge,
If i was to flash a system using adb fastboot, after extracting update.app, what would i flash from the list of extracted things to make the system run again, right now it keeps going to erecovery, without any wipe or anything, just the reboot and shutdown option.

Please help unbrick my phone

I have bricked my phone after Magisk install fail.
I first unlocked bootloader succesfully
then i installed twrp succesfully
then i flashed magisk using twrp - this failed and sent device to erecovery. (which won't find package)
i used twrp to wipe data, now i was able to boot, and it installed like a fresh EMUI. However, almost all apps were broken- could not download themes/camera shut down etc.
To fix this, i wanted to restore to stock and did the following: download update package for my VTR-L09 of EMUI b175 (I was on b162 before), used Huawei Update Extractor to extract files and flashed BOOT.IMG, SYSTEM.IMG and RECOVERY.IMG. This was done without error.
Now my phone won't boot at all. I am stuck at the 'your device can't be trusted' screen. I cannot go into recovery. When I connect via USB, I hear the chime in Windows but I can't seem to connect with ADB.
What to do now?? Am I hard-bricked? I hope that anyone knows how to deal with my phone bricked like this. Please help me to solve this issue.
Best of wishes.
Edit: I am able to enter forced recovery, however updates fail at 5%.
I am also able to fastboot with USB, however I am unsure what to do next.

I unbricked my phone! Many thanks to who ah way and his solution found here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10/how-to/guide-unbricking-p10-using-hwota-windows-t3714416
:victory:

why are you doing it when you dont understand it?
You cannot flash part of B175 firmwar eover B162 firmware.. OMG.
use the HWOTa to go back to stock and please stop playing with the device without propper knowledge
