("Keep System as Read Only"
TWRP can leave unmodified the system partition to make it easier for you to take official updates.
Installing zips or performing adb operations can modify the system partition).

3. Select "Backup".
4. Check the "Cache, Boot, Data, System" boxes.
5. Press "Select Stogare", choose "MicroSDCard".

Greetings from Mordor!
I just want to remind everyone at this point, that we have TWRP 3.1.0-1, which is newer and supports backup of more important partitions. You should consider looking at the newer version, because newer most of the times means better.
The TWRP 3.1.0-1 Thread is located under Original Android Development.
Edit: No offense @JohnMillerDev7 Sharing your work over here is always awesome. The more support this phone gets, the better. Everyone needs to decide their self what they want to install, but they should know what is available. Your Tutorials are helpful for everyone that never installed TWRP.
You also should consider to update your links to newer SuperSU or even consider using magisk, so users will be able to pass safety net and hide root to various apps like PokemonGO or Super Mario Run.
@JohnMillerDev7:
I think it's better that you update your guide:
install custom recovery: remove method 2, you need root and generally to have root you already had custom recovery
add something like "update/re-install recovery (after root)" with flashify (a.e. from 2 to 3.0.2 ot to 3.1.0-1)
Do not worry, the tutorial will be updated later, thanks for the data, Regards! :highfive:

I'm looking how to unlock the bootloader, tried a few different methods, none worked in my case (ALE-L21C55B587).
Any info on the subject is really appreciated.
Managed to unlock bootloader thanks to PotatoNV.
I then installed TWRP with the first method and it hard bricked my device.
Everything is black. Nothing. No LEDs, no rebooting, nothing. dead.
Tried disconnecting the battery with no luck.
Anything?

Unfortunately you can't do anything, i have the same problem so, tried to flash other firmware available with latest update it worked but VoLTE was not working on any available ROM since none of them are for Indian version.
Finally locked the bootloader took it to service center, they factory reset the firmware to "LLD-AL10 8.0.0.101 (C675)" after that my phone is unable to find latest OTA update.

Update: You can flash B370 released on (July 12 2018) too, tested and successfully updated from B366 to B370, this update includes July 2018 security patches
Hey everyone, in this guide you can update to the latest build of EMUI 8 by using the Nocheck Recovery, I know that you can update it by using HuRUpdater, but this guide is for flashing from the Nocheck Recovery
ATTENTION: THIS GUIDE IS ONLY FOR DEVICES ALREADY RUNNING EMUI 8, DO NOT TRY THIS ON EMUI 5 OTHERWISE YOU WILL GET INTO ERROR MODE (!!!)
I'm not responsible for any bricks, this has been tested to work to update from B322 to B364, It should work for future builds too
In this tutorial I will show you how to update to the latest build of EMUI 8 by using TWRP and the nocheck recovery, with my guide I successfully updated from B322 to B364
Requirements:
> Nocheck recovery - Link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8...recovery-recoveryoreonocheck-install-t3777974
> TWRP (Use the one by Dil3mm4) - Link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8...lopment/unofficial-twrp-3-2-1-0-oreo-t3773970
> Minimal ADB and Fastboot - Link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
You need to have both the Bootloader and FRP Unlocked
Step 1: Go here: http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=pra-lx1c432&firmware_page=0 , Download the one that says FullOTA-MF (B365 for single sim devices and B370 for dual sim devices) and download update.zip, update_data_full_public.zip & update_full_PRA-L31-hw_eu.zip
make sure you don't download the one that says FullOTA-MF-PV since that one is for updating from EMUI 5
Step 2: After downloading, you should get an "update.zip", "update_data_full_public.zip" and "update_full_PRA-L31-hw_eu.zip" packages, copy the files to the EXTERNAL SD Card (Don't copy to the internal as it won't work)
Step 3: Download the NoCheck Recovery from the link and copy to the EXTERNAL SD Card
Step 4: Download TWRP from the link and copy into the same folder that you installed ADB
Step 5: Connect your phone from the PC and boot into fastboot mode (Power button + Volume Down)
Step 6: Now launch ADB (I recommend using Minimal ADB and Fastboot), and run this command to flash TWRP
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk nameoftherecovery.img
( in this case the latest recovery name is recovery_1105.img )
Step 7: Reboot your device by holding the power button and let it power on
(Note: Make sure you remove Google accounts, Fingerprint and the Password unlock before updating to avoid any issues)
Step 8: Now, reboot into TWRP by holding the Power button + Volume Up
Step 9: In the TWRP Menu, go to Install > Select Storage > Micro SD Card > Install Image and find the NoCheck Recovery that you copied into the EXTERNAL SD Card, flash it to the recovery_ramdisk partition
Step 10: Now go back to the main TWRP Menu and go to Advanced > Terminal and type this
echo --update_package=/sdcard/update.zip > /cache/recovery/command
and then Enter
After that, type reboot recovery into the Terminal of TWRP
Step 11: Your phone will reboot to the NoCheck Recovery and install the update, and reboot automatically once the update is finished
Step 12: Congrats, you just successfully updated to the Latest EMUI 8 build
(Note: If your build number is still the same as before updating, flash update_data_full_public.zip & update_full_PRA-L31-hw_eu.zip)
In this case you should do this
Step 13: After it booted, Reboot your phone again to fastboot mode by pressing Power button + Volume Down and launch ADB, and run this command to flash TWRP again
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk nameoftherecovery.img
( in this case the latest recovery name is recovery_1105.img )
Step 14: Reboot your device by holding the power button and let it power on
(Note: Make sure you remove Google accounts, Fingerprint and the Password unlock before updating to avoid any issues)
Step 15: Now, reboot into TWRP by holding the Power button + Volume Up
Step 16: In the TWRP Menu, go to Install > Select Storage > Micro SD Card > Install Image and find the NoCheck Recovery that you copied into the EXTERNAL SD Card, flash it to the recovery_ramdisk partition
Step 17: Now go back to the main TWRP Menu and go to Advanced > Terminal and type this
echo --update_package=/sdcard/update_data_full_public.zip > /cache/recovery/command
and then Enter
After that, type reboot recovery into the Terminal of TWRP
Step 18: Your phone will reboot to the NoCheck Recovery and install the update, and reboot automatically once the update is finished
Step 19: After it booted, Reboot your phone again to fastboot mode by pressing Power button + Volume Down and launch ADB, and run this command to flash TWRP again
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk nameoftherecovery.img
( in this case the latest recovery name is recovery_1105.img )
Step 20: Reboot your device by holding the power button and let it power on
(Note: Make sure you remove Google accounts, Fingerprint and the Password unlock before updating to avoid any issues)
Step 21: Now, reboot into TWRP by holding the Power button + Volume Up

Hey everyone, in this guide you can update to the latest build of EMUI 8
ATTENTION: THIS GUIDE IS ONLY FOR DEVICES ALREADY RUNNING EMUI 8, DO NOT TRY THIS ON EMUI 5 OTHERWISE YOU WILL GET INTO ERROR MODE (!!!)
In this tutorial I will show you how to update to the latest build of EMUI 8 by using TWRP and the nocheck recovery, with my guide I successfully updated from B322 to B364
Requirements:
> Nocheck recovery - Link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8...recovery-recoveryoreonocheck-install-t3777974
> TWRP (Use the one by Dil3mm4) - Link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8...lopment/unofficial-twrp-3-2-1-0-oreo-t3773970
> Minimal ADB and Fastboot - Link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
You need to have both the Bootloader and FRP Unlocked
Step 1: Go here: http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=pra-lx1c432&firmware_page=0 , Download the one that says FullOTA-MF (B363 for single sim devices and B364 for dual sim devices), make sure you don't download the one that says FullOTA-MF-PV since that one is for updating from EMUI 5
Step 2: After downloading, you should get an "update.zip" package, copy the file to the EXTERNAL SD Card (Don't copy to the internal as it won't work)
Step 3: Download the NoCheck Recovery from the link and copy to the EXTERNAL SD Card
Step 4: Download TWRP from the link and copy into the same folder that you installed ADB
Step 5: Connect your phone from the PC and boot into fastboot mode (Power button + Volume Down)
Step 6: Now launch ADB (I recommend using Minimal ADB and Fastboot), and run this command to flash TWRP
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk nameoftherecovery.img
( in this case the latest recovery name is recovery_1105.img )
Step 7: Reboot your device by holding the power button and let it power on
(Note: Make sure you remove Google accounts, Fingerprint and the Password unlock before updating to avoid any issues)
Step 8: Now, reboot into TWRP by holding the Power button + Volume Up
Step 9: In the TWRP Menu, go to Install > Select Storage > Micro SD Card > Install Image and find the NoCheck Recovery that you copied into the EXTERNAL SD Card, flash it to the recovery_ramdisk partition
Step 10: Now go back to the main TWRP Menu and go to Advanced > Terminal and type this
echo --update_package=/sdcard/update.zip > /cache/recovery/command
and then Enter
After that, type reboot recovery into the Terminal of TWRP
Step 11: Your phone will reboot to the NoCheck Recovery and install the update, and reboot automatically once the update is finished
Step 12: Congrats, you just successfully updated to the Latest EMUI 8 build

I forgot, you need to also flash update_data_full_public.zip and update_full_PRA-L31_hw_eu.zip (update_full_PRA-L11_hw_eu.zip if you are on a single SIM device)
To do this, you need to repeat the same steps starting from Step 6, the only difference is that the terminal commands are different
in this case, Step 10 will be like this
echo --update_package=/sdcard/update_data_full_public.zip > /cache/recovery/command
echo --update_package=/sdcard/update_full_PRA-L31-hw_eu.zip > /cache/recovery/command
Obviously, to flash these you need to reflash TWRP and then Nocheck Recovery to execute the terminal commands from TWRP
EDIT: I updated the tutorial, try it now

Thanks, but why do I need to do an factory reset?
Also, there's B366 now released today on Firmware Finder, I'm currently installing the update
EDIT: I flashed all 3 zips of B366 from Nocheck Recovery and it worked just fine, I didn't do an factory reset

Hi Joaoj1999,
Do you have the fingerprint sensor option available on your B370 firmware? i have the B372 Stock Rom (dual sim version) but no fingerprint option...
thanks

Did you deleted the fingerprint before manually updating like I said on my tutorial?, also I'm on B370 right now and I have the fingerprint option working

HI joao,
I think not, but i never used the fingerprint before, so i think the dual sim oeminfo.img i used must be from an USA phone, can you send me a copy of your oeminfo.img (dual sim version)?
thanks for the help))

He guys,
as you've read I bricked my phone and I don't know how or where I did the mistake?
Status before brick:
-) FW: EMUI 8.xxx (not exactly sure which one it was)
-) TWRP: 3.2.3.0
-) Rooted
-) BL: unlocked
-) PHONE Unlock
-) FRP Unlock
What I wanted to do:
-) FW Update to: EMUI 9.0 via FirmwareFinder
What I've done:
-) Did a Titanium Backup
-) Installed Firmware Finder
-) Downloaded the Firmware CLT-L29C432E5R1P9B195 (9.0.0.195) (BUT there were ONLY 2 files)
-) 1. file was "update.zip"
-) 2. file was "update_full_CLT-L29_hw_eu.zip"
-) Renamed the files to
-) 1. kept file name "update.zip"
-) 2. file renamed "update_full_CLT-L29_hw_eu.zip" --> update_all_hw.zip
-) Put the 2 files + hurupdater_04.zip + recovery.img (TWRP 3.2.1.0.img) to a folder in Root on my device
-) Reboot to recovery -> TWRP
-) TWRP -> Install -> hurupdater_04.zip
ERRORS:
-) first I saw a message --> "CLT-L09 "Firmware installing --> how can that happened, if I downloaded the CLT-L29 version?
-) Then it aborted the installing process
Current situation:
-) TWRP is installed again --> TWRP 3.2.1.-0 by Pretorian
-) PHONE Unlock
-) FRP Unlock
-) no OS
!! Cannot access my files either via TWRP or Windows explorer --> all files are encrypted and have totally weird names
So please, please help me installing an OS again!
!! And is there a chance to get access to my pictures back???
I appreciate every helpfull advise.
Thanks in advance!!!
He guys,
nobody has an idea to solve/help me with my issues/situation?
I searched the forum and also other forums and pages to find a solution to "my" problem, but without any helpful results.
I am afraid of doing an eRecovery restore because of losing all my data.
I have currently: TWRP installed -> Files/folders with weird names (shown in TWRP & Phone connected to PC "Explorer")
What can I do to save, restore, copy my pictures and files from phone to PC?
Please give me some hints.
This way brought me back
Try downloading the firmware here: FIRMWARE
Then follow these instructions: HEREhttps://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p20-pro/development/huawei-p20-pro-charlotte-l29c432b131-8-t3809964
Got me out of a pinch a few times.

Thanks for the help and the links.
BUT before I'll start doing this, there is just one issue left: the encrypted "storage / files" (pics etc.) in TWRP.
BEFORE I want to say, that I've removed all the security barriers like fingerprint, pattern and faceID !!!!
I tried using this https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p20-pro/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-t3779400
with different kinds of TWRP versions:
TWRP 3.2.1-0.img

But nothing works, my files shown in TWRP -> storage are still encrypted and still shown with weird gibberish names?
Do you know how to solve this, or where I can get the right TWRP version?
I'm totally at the end of ideas and not finding the right way to get access to my pictures and stuff again.

I honestly don't think any twrp will work, another reason i'll never buy a huawei again. You could try extracting the image files from the update.app that you get from the update.zip file. then manually flash:
You can extract the image files using EMUI Extractor Application.
fastboot flash cust cust.img
fastboot flash system system.img
I believe the pictures are located on the userdata partition. be sure to flash the right android version as it may depend on what framework you have and how far you got when it was updating. You may want to verify the location of those pictures first.
SO I replicated your soft brick, after I backup up my photos. I ccouldn't save them. I'm up and running though. Turns out I had to first manually flash those image files located in update.app. Then I had to do this
Modified\Updated (Bricked device fix)
1) Try downloading the firmware here: FIRMWARE
2) Extract the update.app file from the update.zip, then use EMUI extractor to extract all the image files. You'll then need to manually flash a few of them: (You can move all these images into the main folder of the Reflash tools located in step 3, then run CMD-HERE)
Commands: (Some might error, i forget which but its alright)
fastboot flash cust cust.img
fastboot flash cache cache.img
fastboot flash kernel kernel.img
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdis.img (Very Important)
fastboot flash recovery_vbmeta recovery_vbmeta.img
fastboot flash recovery_vendor recovery_vendor.img
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot flash vector vector.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot reboot, unplug the USB-C cable and hold the volume up button. this will put you into recovery mode.
Then you'll need to format data using with the EMUI recovery and if given the option format cache.
Reboot back into bootloader\Download mode.
3) Then follow these instructions: HEREhttps://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p20-pro/development/huawei-p20-pro-charlotte-l29c432b131-8-t3809964
Got me out of a pinch a few times.
Unfortunately I seem to have the same issue. I followed @Vedrick's tutorial.
However after fastboot reboot I'm stuck on 'Your device is booting now...'
Any ideas?
I worry that perhaps the 'boot image' on my p20 is messed up. However in the .APP file I can't find the boot image to restore. I do however see 2 SYSTEM images.
nvm! Got it! Had to fastboot erase userdata.
