Hi guys, I'm completely newbie in Adroid stuff, and need help to get back my phone.
My software:
ROM Versio: V100R001C00B133SP01
EMUI: 2.3
KitKat[/INDENT]
So, what I did before:
Unlock boot loader
Installed TWRP 2.8
Installed Kingo Root
Got rooted
Installed Super SU
My issue:
Following the article, posted on this thread link, I got some some errors, then I tried by myself extract boot, cust, system and recovery from Huawei Extractor for ROM: Sophia-L10_V100R001C00B621_Firmware_West%20European%20Region_Others_Android%204-2 and ran the following commands using ADB:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash cust cust.img
fastboot flash system system.img
After doing this, my phone got in boot loop, I did some search here, and found a force recovery method (putting B133 ROM on SD root directory DLOAD folder and tried force update without sucess.
Does anyone any suggestion to get my phone back?
By the way, my final gola is got Lollipop or Marshmallow working on this phone if it can be alive again
Thank you,
Ivan

i removed root so i could get updates. when i start updating, and the phone reboots, it starts up in twrp recovery. i tryed to install stock recovery, but still boots up in twrp.
can someone help med removing twrp and installing stock recovery correct? thank you
Extract the "RECOVERY.img" file from the UPDATE.APP with the Huawei Update Extractor tool.
Apply in fastboot mode: "fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.img".
It's all.
Hi guys, ITALY HERE, I rarely write on the forum, but this time I have a serious problem ... I tried everything ...
I had this phone with firmware PRA-LX1C432B101 root and recovery TWRP, now in the attempt to bring it to stock to sell it I had a HARD BRICK,
I flashed through adb a wrong firmware and now I can not even access via adb ...."adb devices" shows an empty List, i think fasboot is broken too ..
. DLOAD seems not working, all files i try stops after 5% "update failed" and of course erecovery download not working and hisuite totally useless ...
Damn, .. what can i do ??? Why fastboot does not work?
ty guys, have a nice day...
Hey man have you tried to change the cable,restart the pc and the phone?If after that works go in adb and flash the correct firmware using adb flash recovery recovery.img
adb flash system system.img and the same with boot.img
Yeah. Tried. No device recognized... and i cant find my original firmware 101 on internet...
Install any firmware for you Pra-Lx1 and then go to recovery and factory reset

When you say fastboot does not work, are you trying to use it on the bootloader ?
edit:
I thought I had bricked my device too when I wiped it and failed to install a ROM (which actually wasn't adequate), but I only had to download the correct ROM with firmware finder, then I extracted the .img files from the update.app file with Huawei update extractor. Then I went to bootloader, flashed recovery.img, boot.img and system.img.
Finally I rebooted into eRecovery and made a factory restore to get it to work again.
Situation
Currently I am running VIE-L29C636B320, with EMUI 5 and Android 7.0. The phone is runs fine
So when I am to install , boot to recovery mode:
It gives
"Your device is booting now... "
And stuck there forever. I can get my phone back to working state by rebooting 3 times.
I tried the following methods..
> using dload+**#*#2846579#*#*, )
> I currently cannot boot into TWRP at all (I am using TWRP3.1.1 for Huawei p9 plus already), and all the key combinations doesn't work.
> Firmware Finder with Proxy Add-on
> fastboot flash reccover twrp.img (phone oem unlocked already)
> Huawei e-recovery does not detect any packages to download.
So I suspect something wrong with my img files..
My plan is:
Using Huawei Extractor to extract all img's (system, boot custom and recovery) from B360
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash cust cust.img
fastboot flash system system.img
It took me a while to get to where I am now from EMUI 4.1. What I don't want to is lose my working phone and make my phone completely useless.
So my question is, are the above steps no u-turn and I would completely screwed? Or safe to get those img's back and then I should be able to continue to upgrade from B320 to 362 and onwards?
Since I cannot boot into TWRP, I can't take backup of my phone..
Hi Guys,
I haven't find so far (after reading hundreds of threats here and there) a clear solution to my problem.
To make it short :
Last EMUI update to 5.0.1 on my PRA-LX1C109B131 caused GPS instability.
I reported to Huawei France support but did not get any answer apart from launching a factory reset.
So I decided to install an alternative ROM.
I first unlocked the bootloader and taped OEM unlock from the developer's menu -> OEM Unlocked (FRP Unlock in Fastboot) and Bootloader was Unlocked
From instruction from a spanish forum I installed TWRP from Revolution Project (fastboot flash recovery TWRP_3.0.3-0_RevolutionRecoveryNougat_RC2.img).
From TWRP, I installed the ROM_MIDGARD_3V3.0_P8-P9LITE2017.zip backup.
This has fixed the GPS issue !
But I thought it could be nice to re-install a stock ROM and downgrade from C109B131 to C109B120.
I downloaded PRA-LX1C109B120-FullOTA-MF zip packages ("update.zip", "update_data_full_public.zip" et "PRA-L11_orange_all/update_full_PRA_orange_all.zip")
I unzipped the 2 first packages to get the UPDATE.APP file.
From the UPDATE.APP file I got BOOT.img, RECOVERY.img et SYSTEM.img and CUST.img
Then from fastboot :
fastboot flash boot BOOT.IMG -> success
fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.IMG -> success
fastboot flash system SYSTEM.IMG -> success
fastboot flash cust CUSTOM.IMG -> success
fastboot reboot
From Huawey recovery, I did a wipe/cache and then a factory reset / wipe data.
Then installation starts ang get stuck at 99%
I left the phone for about 15/20 minutes.
In the end I re-installed the Midgard ROM and restored my data.
I'd like to know if I did something wrong or if I missed something.
Perhaps I need to flash recovery2 file.
I saw that some say I need to unlock again the bootlaoder although it is shown as unlock.
Please advise.

You can try find a full twrp backup and restore it following instructions in this forum, i dont know if the twrp b182 backup its valid for you, search about this and good luck!

Thanks for this but I'd like to know first why the factory reset remains at 99%
I know for sure the build build C109B120 I downloaded is fully compatible with my P8 lite 2017 so it should be no problem re-flashing it.
Since the last EMUI official update to version 5.0.1 a lot of users (at least on French, Italian and Spanish forum) reported some GPS issue (signal is lost after 15/20 minutes). Rebooting the device fix this.
No official fix yet from Huawei.
EDIT : another bug was also reported regarding wifi slow transfer rate when blutooth is activated.
I tested myslef and confirm that on my device if blutooth is activated wifi transfer rate drops down from 3/4 Mb per s. to less than 100kb / s.

I posted this procedure on a French forum and got feed-back. It works.
Perhaps i dont't wait enough time when the EMUI installation process reaches 99%.
I forced the shutdown of the device by pressing the power button after approximatively 20 minutes
I had installed TWRP and it was working fine.
I then installed SuperSU-v2.82-201705271822 via TWRP.
This did not root the phone, rootchecker etc. all said it's not working.
I had made a TWRP backup of the phone before that.
I then tried to restore that backup, and now the phone only starts either into the TWRP boot screen, then reboots endlessly, or goes into the Huawei recovery, and fails to download the recovery package there.
Any ideas?
I can get into fastboot and download mode, but using dload found on another thread here fails at 5%.
Got it fixed. Had to flash both kernel.img AND system.img for it to work, without kernel, it kept looping.

I'm in the same situation, can you please help me?
I tried to flash SuperSU but got stuck in a boot-loop. Did you flash the kernel.img and system.img extracted from a stock firmware update.app file? I tried flashing those two but am still stuck at the boot animation. Occasionally the device will automatically reboot from the boot animation and enter eRecovery, which always fails to get package info.
Mine were from update.app. I had also flashed vendor.img, not sure if that is related.
You can also try this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ho.../recovery-bkl-nocheck-recovery-flash-t3778085
The recovery is compatible. Since you can't boot to system, make sure you run the adb stuff in TWRP, then flash to the nocheck recovery in fastboot mode afterwards and follow the rest of the steps.
Huawei's recovery servers are down, that's why erecovery fails.
edit: nevermind, got kernel.img extracted by disabling "Verify Header Checksum" in Huawei Update Extractor settings. This post can be deleted.
