Well, I tried LOS 20, and I couldn't get a cellular connection. In fact, when I tried to get into the SIM options to fix them, settings crashed. So I said "screw this" and reverted to stock using this guide.
And now I'm in a bootloop. What do I do?
I saw some people talking about other devices who recommended clearing the cache and the data. I tried to do that, not sure if I did it right because stock recovery is hard to work with.
I need some good advice to get this thing back on track.
Did you do a factory reset? If not, your phone will bootloop. You can also issue the fastboot - w command if you can get the phone in fastboot mode.

I did what this guide said to do. I also tried a factory reset after. No dice.
Go to lolinet and download the correct carrier and region firmware for the way your phone started off. Use the guide on the xda forum to flash stock firmware. Or get the flashing tool from the Telegram channel. Flash it again and don't forget the factory reset or fastboot - w. The Telegram channel also has a batch file already written that will flash a stock ROM to both the A and B partitions.

It is. But, it is hit and miss. It is great for downloading the correct firmware, less great for flashing it. I don't know why, but I know it is the truth from experience and research.

This is the batch file I use.
I had trouble using the Moto Flash Tool.
Fortunately, however, Lenovo's Rescue and Smart Assistant has saved my bacon. The phone has booted up. And hopefully, this time, everything is going to be ok.

OK, twice now this has happened.
The first time was after I updated some apps. The second was when I had installed a new app.
Initially several apps then fail to work, they open and close straight away.
I reboot and phone hangs on first M screen - before the swirly white bits.
Into recovery from there shows dead Android with open chest and Explanation mark (I think)
Factory reset from recovery fail doesn't seem to do anything
Only solution is to flash official ROM using RSD
Phone is totally UK Orange Stock - not unlocked or rooted.

See http://forum.xda-developers.com/razr-i/general/index-razr-t2832722 - should answer all your questions - but yes, you can use RSD on any phone, without unlocking or rooting - it is the official Motorola tool.

By looking at your other post you are using this zip file in RSD-lite: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028814
As the Titel of the thread says, they are 'OTA' updates. So only usable through recovery and when going from a working 4.0.4 stock rom to 4.1.2.
That's why u are getting that error. The zip is not intended to be used through RSD-Lite.
U will need to get your hands on a JB RSD-Lite firmware zip file. This site: http://motofirmware.com/files/category/24-smi/
Has some firmwares, not all.

No problem, I am pleased it worked out for you!
So, i have a P10 vtr-l29c432, bootloader unlocked, with twrp installed and from future rom installed, and now i want to go back to stock rom with Huawei recovery, to use the official updates via ota without problems. I'm not a noob but this is my first Huawei device and things are way more complicated compared with oneplus or nexus devices. My question is how to do it, because what i've so far is confusing me, if someone could explain me or give me some instructions i will appreciate it, thanks!
Hi!
same situation here. I would very much like to go back to stock but I'm not sure how... I saw a tutorial but I am not certain that that is what I need. Any confirmation would be very appreciated!!!
Tx & best
Exact same problem here on the p10 vtr-l09, seems to be a few different methods out there, either don't work or too confusing
You can try to update your phone with my guide.
This will reformat the system and your phone is on stock after a factory reset (reset is important when you come from another rom).
After factory reset you should be able to lock the bootloader.
Important is that you have in mind which Android version is installed and which phone model you have.
No warranty for this, I didn't try it or know someone with the same situation. But after learning something about how emui works it shouldn't be a problem.
did anyone tried this? I'm using custom rom from openkirin project and I would like to get back to stock. I have the stock recovery
On openkirin's website is a tutorial.
You need to extract system.img, ramdisk.img and kernel.img from update.app and flash them with Fastboot. After this boot into eRecovery and make a factory reset.

Yeah I tried to follow the instructions which they put in three separate articles, however the last one is landing on the main page and I don't see the flasing instructions. Here is the link:
https://openkirin.net/user_guide/how-to-flash-extracted-partition-images/
Doesn't work in all countries but worth a try:
Go to eRecovery (not recovery) and use wifi to go back to stock.
Worked for me.

Then do it like I wrote, the Fastboot commands should be clear if you already installed the Rom.
WiFi downloads don't work if you're rooted, you need to flash stock ramdisk manually before you can download via eRecovery.

Maybe he didn't install magisk when he was on one of the OpenKirin roms, so ramdisk is still stock. I used this eRecovery WiFi method when I was on fRomFuture, no magisk installed.

Use huru updater as it is safest back to stock option for latest Huawei devices. Lookup tool right here in xda.

Jannomag here, it's possible to "update" to the same version. My script just tells the recovery to install the given update files. The recovery will overwrite the system without removing user data.
This should work without any issues but it can happen, that bugs are still present after this. If you want to fix firmware issues a complete factory reset is much more effective.

Did it help, what @glehel posted?
I want to know, because I want to provide this guide also for fixing problems like you have ... or had.
Use dload forced method with first before using scripts.
Just download the correct firmware for your device, if you know the firmware-version you had, use the exact one, because it was approved for installation:
http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model
Extract the the update.zip and put the update.app into a folder called dload on your sdcard.
Start you phone while holding all 3 buttons, this will launch th dload process.
This way you maybe safe some time.

Is there a way to retrieve the exact name of the installed stock firmware? For my VTR-L09C432 there are multiple versions listed (like 360, 365, etc). Also I am wondering what's the difference between FullOTA-MF / OTA-MF / FullOTA-MF-PF, etc.

No, you can´t check your version, but if you choose an older firmware, you should be fine. Afterwards you can update to a newer version.
The only problem might be, if you already had oreo installed, then you should use it again for restore, because the partitionlayout changed from nougat to oreo.
All version named B1XX are Nougatfirmwares
All version named B3XX are Oreofirmwares.
Choose a FULLOTA for updates, the others are just incremental and won´t help you in your case.
To be exact you should use a FullOTA-MF-PV. The PV stands for public version and all other firmwares are just internal builds from huawei.

If you don't want to go back to stock firmware, you also have the option of custom roms such as Lineage OS or one of the others in this forum.
If you go with stock firmware, I suggest you make a Nandroid back-up before you flash TWRP. You can easily do this by booting into twrp instead of flashing (eg: fastboot boot twrp.img). After creating and copying the back-up to your PC, you can proceed with flashing twrp and never have to worry about the softbricking again =).

Good evening, try this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/funky-huawei-erecovery-solution-100-t3620165, it really works, I rescue my P10 from a hard brick
Hello.
I've been playing with some custom ROMs, recoveries, etc. on S10 SM-G973F. Every time something went wrong I was able to flash stock Android 11 ROM with Odin and run the system after that. But not anymore...
At this moment I have access to Recovery Mode (stock, TWRP, LineageOS... whichever I flash with Odin) and Download Mode. When I try to power on the phone with button or with an option Boot to System from Recovery the phone turns off and nothing else happens. Black screen only, no vibration, etc.
I tried to format data and cache in Stock Recovery and TWRP. I tried to flash many time, changed USB cable, change USB port... nothing helps.
What is strange that after I flash the stock recovery the phone boots one time displaying the unlocked bootloader warning, Samsung logo and Android robot icon with an Erasing sign... but just for a 1-2s, very short time. Before the problem occurred the Erasing took much much more time. After that one time I cannot make to display bootloader unlocked warning and Samsung logo any more, no matter which ROM or recovery I flash.
Maybe you can try installing the original firmware and start over again.
That is what I do in the first place, I try to flash the original firmware with Odin. I use the same files as before. The only difference I can see is that after the flashing the Erase progress was very long and now it is only 1-2s and the phone turns off.
Ok, I've found my mistake and a solution. I will post it here if anyone else has a similar problem.
So while I was playing with different ROMs one of them had an instruction to flash G973FXXSCFUH5-twrp_flashable.zip that included:
modem.bin
dt.img
dtbo.img
cm.bin
sboot.bin
up_param.bin
keystorage.bin
uh.bin
The zip included was to an older firmware G973FXXSCFUH5, while I was already on newer G973FXXSEFUJ2. But the TWRP that I used to flash the zip did not protest and the process finished well. Causing the problems above of course.
Don't know why but flashing the whole original G973FXXSEFUJ2 firmware with Odin was not enough. But when I flashed G973FXXSEFUJ2-twrp_flashable.zip from the TWRP worked and made the phone operational again.
hello, I am in the same situation after having wanted to install blastui I find myself with the possibility of starting only in dow load or in twrp. Can you help me

0. Make sure your phone is charged!
1. Check your current SW# in Download mode (the number stands for the number or letter in firmware code, the 5th sign from the end in hexadecimal, for example SW# 14 is E in G973FXXSEFUJ2_G973FOXMEFUJ2)
2. Find the proper version of bootloader and modem in ....-twrp_flashable.zip format (check here: https://github.com/corsicanu/9820-bootloaders_and_modems/releases)
3. Flash and run TWRP recovery.
4. Flash the zip file from #2.
Flashing the stock firmware with Odin was not enough for me. Flashing with TWRP made the S10 back to alive.

Best way to go back to stock rom is simply flash it with Odin from original files available from Samsung, for example on SamMobile:

For months I've tried searching for a solution to fix my SM-N976U that stopped booting up. None of the symptoms shared fully matched what I was experiencing, so every fix I attempted didn't get her fully functioning again, eventually I gave up trying, stuffed the phone in a drawer and just bought another one. Today I stumbled upon your post and every symptom you described fit exactly with what happen to me, I mean to the T, minus the model and fw version. So I grabbed my SM-N976U one more time and followed your solution... and guess what??? I am now a proud owner of 2 note 10 plus'!!!
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience and solution!! Cheers to you bud! Have a great New Year!
Thank you~! my s10 plus is back!
Let's say I once flashed custom on my C25, and now I've decided to go back to stock firmware. For Xiaomi phones, there is a MiFlashPro program, with which you can download the necessary firmware in a couple of clicks and return the phone to its original state by flashing all possible sections of the phone: system, recovery, etc.
Is there such a possibility for realme phones via other software?
