Need help to downgrade from Nougat to Stock Rom

Hi all, i've been trying to fix this for 2 days and still failed to get it working.
I regret that i quickly jump into the nougat build and would like to get back to stock rom for now.
I tried downloading all the ROMs at stock rom thread and keep on encountering error when update reached 51% with software package/update failed error message.
I'm using P9-L19 and hopefully can revert back to C636 roms.
Thanks.:crying:

have you try this?

As someone new to this, this seems kinda complicated.
I'll give it a try. Just have to follow the instruction in the video?

Download the stock rom to external memory card in dload folder and use this code in phone dialer
*#*#2846579#*#*
And select update system

Flash update in dload don't work
Please help

Is your bootloader unlocked? Do you have a twrp backup?
I don't know if that's a good idea, but you could wipe system partition in twrp then flash stock recovery and try stock rom again? Going by the assumption that your current system is causing the update to fail.
Maybe nougat beta has a new recovery that won't flash old firmware? So maybe try an old recovery?
I'm just brainstorming though, no idea if any of this works. So try at your own risk.

Just ordered a microsd card for this. I'll let you know how once the sd card arrived.

Hello, my P9 is 100% origin.

I managed to use an OTG cable and put the firmware (update.app) on a flash drive under the dload folder. then powered the phone off and pressed both the volume keys + power and the flashing started

you need to download full stock rom the same version as you have before upgrade to N. then try to flash via project menu (*#*#2846579#*#*)
if this method doesn't work you may need to goto recovery menu and wipe data/factory reset. then you might lost all your theme and system apps.
but you will be back to to stable stock rom. if you need to use theme and need the stock system app again to have to Root your device. and install data/hw_init via SRKTool
Hope this help.

Do you have the full stock rom link available? I tried to wipe data/factory reset and it still remains at 7.0.

After wipe data you need to dload stock rom again though
What is your build number before goto 7.0?

First unlock your bootloader - then use Huawei Update extractor to extract ( I suggest the C636B168 Rom) from the Update.App the recovery.img - after flash from an adb folder the recovery.img through fastboot - use the three button to install the Rom and you're ready.
Warning.. everything in your internal storage will be erased so make a backup first.

Hello
I'm serious problem and need help
I bootloader unlock the phone and gave the phone to Android 7 Upgrade (https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-5c/development/honor7lite5cnem-l21hweuemui5-0beta-t3561536)
After the recovery "RevolutionRecovery_Nougat_P9Lite_RC2_16-03-17" Flash Rom "MM + Kang_full_3.0_B380"
Now I can not run anything flash recovery, only access to recovery. "RevolutionRecovery"
At the same error recovery "failed to mount '/ cust' (invalid argument)"
And not from the "mount" will also enable it
Logo stuck on the boot loader and the solution does not mind
Please tell me if the solution is

Honor 5C can't flash nougat

Hi guys.
I'm having problem with flashing nougat on my NEM-L21C432B132. I'm on 6.0 at the moment and I used both dload folder on sdcard method and Firmware Finder. Tried different versions and I keep getting warning saying "incompatibility with current version". How do I solve this ?
I have no root, stock recovery, unlocked bootloader. I thought it could be because of unlocked BL, but I cannot seem to lock it as "fastboot oem lock" doesn't work for me.

Like I said it doesn't work for me as I keep getting "incompatibility with current version" error. I tried using the dialpad code and going to "Software Update" and tried the 3 buttons (VOL UP, DOWN and POWER ON ) method and I get the same error. Can I just install TWRP and flash the .zips I get from extracting the update.app file ?
EDIT: Just tried TWRP. I get error 7 and the flashing procedure doesn't even start

Hello,
I have extracted the update.app from the 6.0 version, flashed boot.img and recovery.img through fastboot, and my phone found the update even without using the Firmware Finder..strange but I have downloaded it and flashed without problems. My bootloader didn't even lock after flashing which happens from what I've read. Anyway I'm on the newest firmware ATM and also it's rooted. Maybe someone can explain that in case anyone had a similar problem in the future ?

Do you have the marshmallow update pacakage(one you downloaded to update the phone to marshmallow) if you have then extract it and place the dload folder inside a memory card and place it in your phone, then while switched off press power+volume up+volume down all at once and wait until your phone vibrates then leave the buttons and let the software do the work. Hope it helps:good:

If you have unlocked bootloader just flash twrp version for your device and download any MM version Fullrom.zip using firmware finder and flash it through twrp.
Before flashing new rom wipe all partitions from twrp.

(Help) My P8 Lite 2017 (PRA-LX1) is bricked

Hello,
I was trying to install a custom ROM from TWRP to my P8 Lite 2017 and I wiped all partitions except MicroSD.
The installation failed and I got the stock ROM and then I discovered that my bootloader is locked. I can access TWRP and when I flashed the stock ROM the phone just boots to TWRP Recovery. And I can't even unlock the bootloader because the phone doesn‘t have any OS and I can‘t enable OEM unlocking from the system settings. And because I have TWRP, I can’t access Huawei Recovery. So my phone is basically bricked.
Any help will be appreciated

Use dload with a service firmware.
You need to flash this 2 times,once for the firmware and second time for vendor,and the firmware UPDATE.APP can be found in the update_sd.zip and the vendor UPDATE.APP can be found in the PRA-L31 or PRA-L11 folders (most likely you will have PRA-L31,you can find this in the engineering menu by going into the dialer and typing this: *#*#2846579#*#*,and then going to Veneer Informations and Version Info,but since you cannot boot flash PRA-L31 vendor).
http://androidhost.ru/6uc - this is latest firmware,but takes a very very long time to download
https://mega.nz/#F!nwhAWDjC!cNovAN6dKLlO_YZ9fjMbzQ - this is the first official firmware released,but download speed is very good
If you don't know how to use dload you can look it up on forums.

If your phone is really hard bricked and can't do anything, check this out:

Dload works no matter what,at least I was able to enter it when I bricked my phone,even when I completely screwed up my recovery partition,so you should be good. Try using it with the service firmware I left you.

Now I have downloaded the service firmware so how I am going to flash it now? Like do I extract the UPDATE.APP and flash it in TWRP or what? You said that flash UPDATE.APP, but am I going to do that in dload mode or TWRP?

In dload,make sure you make a folder in the root of your sdcard called dload and put that in there.

Hm,make sure you used the service firmware I left you,but if you are sure you did,your last resort is DC Phoenix which you will need to pay 20 euros.

Hello,
I was trying to install a custom ROM from TWRP to my P8 Lite 2017 and I wiped all partitions except MicroSD.
The installation failed and I got the stock ROM and then I discovered that my bootloader is locked. I can access TWRP and when I flashed the stock ROM the phone just boots to TWRP Recovery. And I can't even unlock the bootloader because the phone doesn‘t have any OS and I can‘t enable OEM unlocking from the system settings. And because I have TWRP, I can’t access Huawei Recovery. So my phone is basically bricked.
Any help will be appreciated

if you have TWRP installed could you make a backup of your oeminfo partition so we could provide you the right firmware to recover your device

Ok, but does it provide the right info if I have flashed different oeminfo.img?

I've tried a different firmware for my device and now I can't get to dload anymore so does it mean that I've chosen the wrong firmware? And by the way I read somewhere that if the dload says error it can depend on the microsd card.

I tried it again with the service firmware and I got to dload and it didn't have error anymore and now I've got everything worked and my phone is unbricked

great

I was stuck with a similar problem. Device bricked and flashing TWRP and restoring backups, then stock recovery and stock roms, but nothing worked until I found this post. Thanks a lot dinoderda for your help.

Use dload with a service firmware.
You need to flash this 2 times,once for the firmware and second time for vendor,and the firmware UPDATE.APP can be found in the update_sd.zip and the vendor UPDATE.APP can be found in the PRA-L31 or PRA-L11 folders (most likely you will have PRA-L31,you can find this in the engineering menu by going into the dialer and typing this: *#*#2846579#*#*,and then going to Veneer Informations and Version Info,but since you cannot boot flash PRA-L31 vendor).
http://androidhost.ru/6uc - this is latest firmware,but takes a very very long time to download
https://mega.nz/#F!nwhAWDjC!cNovAN6dKLlO_YZ9fjMbzQ - this is the first official firmware released,but download speed is very good
If you don't know how to use dload you can look it up on forums.

Hello again, I've been using the older service firmware for few months now and now I decided to install the latest service firmware after I had no success with flashing the firmware through TWRP and I downloaded the service firmware put the necessary files to the dload folder and installed it via the software update in the dialer and typing *#*#2846579#*#* and going to dload that way. It installed to 100% and then when it restarted it goes to Error Mode and it says to update the firmware again but it just loops to error mode and I cannot do anything so I think I accidentally removed some neccessary files in the dload folder but now I would need to fix the error mode loop.
