Hi,
there are 3 methods to update the rom:
Method 1 - Phone's Updater app
Method 2 - From Recovery mode
Method 3 - From Fastboot mode
Method 1 & 2 use "update.zip" file.
Method 3 uses "update.tgz" file.
Using MiFlash should be method 3
Perhaps you can download the generic tgz file from:
http://en.miui.com/thread-14641-1-1.html
Or you can spend some time to look for a tgz file
that is specfic to your country and language.
Click Thanks if this helps.

There are three batch (.bat) files in the .tar or .tgz file you chose for flashing :-
1)flash_all.bat
2)flash_all_except_storage.bat
3)flash_all_except_data_storage.bat
Therefore, the error simply meant that file no.2 (as above) is missing from the archive. So you can try the other two options or redownload the flashing archive.

[HOW TO] Replace initial splash screen (logo) on Huawei P7

If somebody want to replace provider/operator/or any other splash screen on Huawei device just do as follow:
Root required
First way:
Install Adb and Fastboot
Download this utility to ADB folder on PC
By Windows CMD go to ADB folder and use this commands:
(observe phone and make appropriate permissions if needed)
adb shell su -c "dd if=/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/oeminfo of=/sdcard/oeminfo"
adb pull /sdcard/oeminfo oeminfo
Make copy original oeminfo file
Download stock HW splash (logo) or make your own picture *.bmp. Bitmap resolution should match your device resolution (1080x1920 pixels). Put it to ADB folder.
In ADB folder use commands:
oem_logo.exe oeminfo logo.bmp
adb push oeminfo /sdcard/oeminfo
adb shell su -c "dd if=/sdcard/oeminfo of=/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/oeminfo"
adb rm -f /sdcard/oeminfo
Reboot
More options described here.
Second way:
Download this (translated bye me) utility
Unzip and use it
Additionally:
If you want to use Huawei stock splash screen you can install this file by custom recovery. It replace any splash screen you have installed by original HW.
Off course you can use this script to installing your own logo. Just replace file \dev\block\platform\hi_mci.0\by-name\oeminfo in downloaded zip by your own file created accordingly to above first method (by oem_logo.exe).

Are you sure? I'dont think so. At least, I was unable to find IMEI there. And it would be too easy to change IMEI if it could be in oeminfo partition...

hi Kostyan_nsk and z!log80 !
I have recently flashed oeminfo.img without isssues (thanks again Kostyan_nsk)
I wanted to give it a try and ask please Kostyan_nsk or z!log80 for a brief explanation about how oem_logo.exe performs the bitmap replacement. Is it possible to mount oeminfo.img browse its file system and replace a particular file, or is it by searching bitmap signature, …?
Thanks Ziolek67 for starting this thread :laugh:

do you have same imei as before ? oeminfo doesnt contain filesystem - no mount

yes, same as before
if no file system or mount then I guest search for a pattern or dedicated tool to package... I have been trying to find further more precise information about oeminfo.img but had not found much so far. I would appreciate if you can contribute to make this a bit clearer for me
thanks
[Edited]
After a bit of research I have found other mods for factory device location, etc. writing to particular offsets, tools to modify, backup and restore oeminfo.img. It is a data store. No embedded code. Thnx!

Eazy. I tried it many times... It works perfectly. I never publish potentially dangerous untested features.

I flashed whole oeminfo partition from other device and my IMEI stayed the same. As I supposed, it's somewhere else, but not in oeminfo partition. You are wrong.

You must NOT be alarm

Do not worry, I also used HW-OEM_LOGO.ZIP to change the booting logo for the original one, and my IMEI is the same as I bought it in the store, so do not be alarmed !!!!:laugh:

Also worked on P8 B321, IMEI stayed the same.

Cannot mount system, vendor, product after wiping like advised on Eliterom install

Hello! I was following the guide of wiping everything except internal storage and sdcard like the guide said. However now i only see TWRP folder on the /sdcard when trying to flash zip. How do i transfer files, or is there some fastboot file to flash or a guide which i can use to bring my device back alive? Fastboot and TWRP boots, but i cannot access some partitions. Thank you
Edit: Already tried to flash the boot.img that was on the EliteROM v4 zip, however the Product, Vendor, Version, Cust and Data versions are still messed up. I need help on repartinioning advice.

Also now i managed to flash system.imgi, but the partitions need to be resized probably to be used. How is the repartitioning possible the easiest way?

That's very wrong. You only needed to wipe system, data and cache,

Hassanmirzans guide says " Wipe Everything in wipe section (dont wipe sdcard) and Format Data & Change FileSystem to f2fs otherwise phone wont boot,,, and reboot twrp and follow next steps,,," which is what i did.
Do you have any more tips? Currently i cannot even use the update.app method at all.
Edit: I just did try the update.zip method, and it says "Software install failed! The update package does not exist. Please download the package again." My computer recognizes the phone as Huawei honor 9p lite now, and i have checked that the UPDATE.APP is under dload folder. Tried with internal storage as well as external sd already.
Edit2: was corrupt UPDATE.APP, now it says "Software install failed! Incompabile package . Please download the package again." Or something similar, do i need to reflash OEM info or something to make my device Honor 5C again?

I solved this because of przemas2468 at modaco. He had posted the OEMinfo file if you manage to mess up your device, which can be found from here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/fn2pv4uucjh63xo/oeminfo_b100_c432.zip

Here you go: https://mega.nz/#!QTZV2YJA!nZASaoDeTiGAx1bwNOu_pnTcGLiraGCqOXMwPkvffj8
This at least worked for NEM-L21. The UPDATE.APP process would not succeed without this file.

Huawei GT3 ROM Help [NO OS]

Hi, I saw some threads saying some stuff about the Huawei GT3, but they didnt helped me so Im posting this thread.
I have a huge Problem with my phone.
(Im a Newbie btw)
I wanted to root my phone so I installed TWRP and rebooted (TWRP works btw), now it said "Encryption unsuccessfull"
I looked up on YouTube to look how to fix this and ended up deleting my complete OS
Now I downloaded the Firmware of my Phone and looked how to install it with TWRP and ADB.
When I try to install the "update.zip" File with TWRP it says something like this :
[2017-11-14 08:00:21 623] E:unknown command [errno]
dload_format_userdata,line=527: dload_format_userdata ok!
script aborted: update_huawei_pkg_from_ota_zip: update package from zip failed
update_huawei_pkg_from_ota_zip: update package from zip failed
Updater process ended with ERROR: 7
I:Legacy property environment disabled.
I:Install took 0 second(s).
Error installing zip file '/data/update.zip'
I also tried to delete the "assert" parts in the updater-script file but it also didnt work.
Now I heard about the "dload" Method but I have some questions about that
1. Where is the dload folder exactly
2. When I try to move the folder cointaining the "update.zip" to as expample root It says not enough space on device (which Is not true) or something like this :
Running command: 'mv "/data/update.zip" "/root"'
mv: write error: No space left on device
mv "/data/update.zip" "/root" process ended with ERROR: 1
Do I maybe have the wrong ROM or something?
Please help me . (or try )

Check the dload guide in my signature. You will know everything. Let me know if any questions or doubts, will help. Dont worry twrp error is normal as these zips shouldn't be flashed with twrp

Hi! Thanks for your reply!
I bought myself a Micro-SD card and extraced the ZIP like in your tutorial, and its working!
Its installing right now!
But I wanted to say something..first thank you very much and second the Russian Website you provided gave me the wrong package, this was the right one :
skyneel.com/huawei-gt3-nougat

No OS Installed VTR-L29, EMUI 9.0 (Can't download stock)

I have the VTR-L29C605E2R1P8B119-log (9.0.1.119), EMUI 9 (android pie) of the P10 and I accidentally deleted my system, with only fastboot and twrp working. My EMUI erecovery is broken since there is no official global PIE update for the P10 (except the chinese) It will say "Failed to get package info"
I need help on how to fix this because I have tried downgrading and no avail.
Tried using funkyhuawei well, i'm getting "Failed to get package info" and i can assure you that the dns was working, and my oem isn't damaged.
Tried using DC-Pheonix but then it says phone not supported.
What a waste of 30$ but it's better than wasting 200$ for a new motherboard.
Tried using the Dload method. Software Install Failed (using the same rom)
Tried doing the HWOTA but it won't write to my recovery because it's set to "Recovery" not "recovery_ramdisk" I tried changing it's script to recovery_ramdisk, but when I tried to boot up to twrp and it gave me func 11 and 2 errors.
Tried flashing the images... Well, I couldn't flash system because of the "cannot load system.img" file.
Tried using oreo images, failed.
Tried using the Multi-Tool for huawei, well i thought it worked but it didn't because it flashed the system and everything else (the program doesn't know that the ramdisk is inside system) it gave me the error #1 at the end. Still didn't boot.
Tried flashing AOSP Roms and I bam it didn't work.
Do you guys have anymore solutions?

Did you try this?

I did. But without adb working, I can't get it to work since it will look for devices/emulators which needed adb and it seems like my phone isn't responding to those.

If you flash the twrp image from the archive of the post I linked before, does it boot up and is adb then available?

Nope. It does not detect the adb.

Can you try this TWRP please, eventhough it's for Oreo.
If this isn't gonna work do something for me:
- Boot into your working TWRP and open the terminal (under Advanced).
- Type: "ls /dev/block/platform"
- You should get something like "FF3B0000.UFS" or other, please post in the next reply.
- Now type "ls /dev/block/platform/RESULT/by-name" - for RESULT enter the output of the first command.
- Please post the recovery and erecovery lines from the output in your reply.
With this output I should be able to write a small script, but I can't guarantee that this will work.
EDIT: I made a script based on my UFS device. Please do the commands above first.
If it shows "ff3b0000.ufs", then proceed with my script:
- create a new directory on your sdcard (it has to be sd, not internal!) called "downgrade" (without qoutes).
- Download my zip package and put it into /sdcard/downgrade
- Download your desired firmware - it has to be the same region C605! (Links for B374: update.zip, update_full_VTR-L29_hw_la.zip, update_data_full_public.zip)
- put all three zip files into /sdcard/downgrade and rename "update_full_VTR-L29_hw_la.zip" to "update_hw.zip".
- Boot into TWRP, tap in Install and navigate to the sdcard/downgrade directory.
- Install downgrade.zip. If there's any output, post it here.
The device will reboot itselfs and should start into Huawei's recovery, which should install the firmware.

Thanks for trying to help me, but I think this would work. I tried the ls /dev/block/platform command but it gave me the "sh ls /dev/block/platform: not found. " Is my device unrecoverable now? I tried to flash but gave me the error: 255 Maybe a backup twrp of kernel,cust,oeminfo,product,recovery,system,sys img, vendor, vendor img, version would work if i use the restore button in twrp but I don't have any backups because I forgot to. If you have any it might work I think?

[Solved]
Thanks for your help, I did a bit of changes though to your script.
Instead of of=/dev/block/platform/ff3b0000.ufs/by-name/recovery_ramdisk_a
I changed it to: of=/dev/block/sdd37
It installed the update well.

This explained that the other tools like HWOTA8 didn't work. sdd37 is only on eMMC device which are rare. I forgot that the eMMC devices have a different path tree under /dev than UFS devices.
I'm glad that this works now.
The script is based on HWOTA and I use this in my Update Guide, too.

have u tried to "reinstall" the FULL OTA (the version that u have installed) via HuRu updater?
