From my prevous thread:
Hi all. i have rooted my Asus Transformer Pad TF132CX and using TitaniumBackup Pro uinstalled some system apps, and now it freezes on asus logo. Charging working, Using VOL+ and Power Button i can acess to DROIDBOOT, here i have fastboot acess, and
i can reboot to recovery. I trayed ADB Sideload in Recovery, i am used stock firmware from Asus page, but it says: Signature Verification failed. Can anyone create backup from system in *.img format? I want to try use fastboot to flash system. Or custom recovery image (*.img) to flash this firmware.
Or something like firmware for these models, or CPUs in *.img format , and then patch with ota update.
I think TF103C and TF103CX are same.
Or any other way how to unbrick? i have lastest Firmware in system, but Bricked

After fumbling with install twrp in order to change over to CM13 from stock, I somehow managed to install the original recovery wrong as well as completely boning the OS. Because of this, on boot, all that shows is the honor screen continuously. Of course the obvious answer to this is to reinstall twrp and restore one of my recovery files. Unfortunately trying to flash twrp through fastboot results in an "FAILED (data transfer failure (Unknown error))". Any suggestions? I can't access the phones internal storage nor the SD card either when I plug it into my PC.
Only one solution, flash a stock firmware using a PC.

How would I go about doing this? I would really love to get my honor working again. Would it just be using fastboot to flash the firmware?
I'd be worried about that error you're getting. It's strange.
Have you considered trying to flash stock recovery? You can extract the recovery image file from the official website update download. Or use the repository.
Or have you tried flashing a different version of TWRP recovery? Here's the official website.

I don't think only fastboot is enough, but take a look at the link provided by JT-on

Luckily, after trying to reflash the twrp with a different version like you suggested, there was no error message and it was completed successfully! Currently restoring as I type this. Don't know how to upload an image so text should do

Happy for you, next time be careful
I got this same error, had to use different USB cable and different USB port.
to the point.. I tried flashing OREO coming from B120 firmware following this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/how-to/stf-l09c432-how-to-install-oreo-h9-t3707729 ... I didnt manage to rename the folder in Part2.4 of the guide because despite supersu asking if i wanted to grant root it just didnt work....the bootloader and frp are unlocked.. when i try to reflash twrp this is happening.

I only want a working rom with root so i can use titanium backup. Any help is appreciated. After spending 12 hours today Im out of googlesearches and forumbrowsing ideas. Worst case check back in a week or so and I'll upload a youtube vid in which I'll destroy my practically brandnew phone with a hammer because I'm starting to lose my nerves. I really didnt expect it to be such a problem to install a new firmware and rooting my new phone. What options do I have?

In Oreo, recovery and boot partitions were renamed.
So, to flash recovery (TWRP in this case), you use
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp.img
Make sure you use TWRP for Oreo
to flash stock "boot", extract RAMDISK from stock oreo honor 9 firmware, and flash using
fastboot flash ramdisk RAMDISK.img
new partitions are the following:
boot = split into RAMDISK and KERNEL
recovery = split into RECOVERY_RAMDISK, RECOVERY_KERNEL, RECOVERY_VENDOR, RECOVERY_VBMETA.
eRecovery = Same as above but named erecovery
DLOAD should work...
if there are ROLLBACK firmware for Honor 9 you could try this to go back to Nougat: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-mate-9-flash-oreo-update-package-t3699522
I'm not sure how different Honor 9 and Mate 9 recoveries are, but you could just flash back stock recovery if it doesn't work.
sorry for posting this in the wrong forum section. If a mod could move this would be appreciated.

Too bad
hey, don't worry, you were just stupid trying to flash to the wrong partitions (nougat partition names), recovery should be recovery_ramdisk and kernel is split into 2 partitions on oreo: kernel and ramdisk.
You better read everything carefully next time, its posted all around the forums here.
Regards
too bad
but you can try to update with latest version [B330]

I'm fixing a friend's cell phone, I had restore stock ROM with SP Flashtools because it did not start, when doing it, and system boot, all most app crashing and still keeps all the data as photos and settings. I enter the custom recovery, and I do all the Wipes, when boot again, it is as if the wipe was not executed, I deleted some files from the internal memory, restart and the files appear again, I have tried to flash a custom recovery by ADB and see this error :
% fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img
sending 'recovery' (8748 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.331s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote:
partition 'recovery' not support flash)
finished. total time: 0.337s
I do not know what else to do, since it is impossible to install or run an application to root and install a custom recovery with the application because the cell phone only show crashing mensages.
Bump!!
Before:
I just unlocked the bootloader and installed a custom ROM (LineageOS 15.1: https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-y6/development/lineageos-15-1-huawei-y6-2018-t3832278) on my Huawei but it won't let me flash the TWRP from adb. I tried before flashing the custom ROM and also after but no progress. I tried with 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img' as well as 'fastboot flash boot recovery.img' because I knew some smartphones include the recovery in the boot.img but I am always getting the same error:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
target reported max download size of 535822336 bytes
sending 'recovery' (16544 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.522s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: partition table doesn't exist)
finished. total time: 0.553s
I am not an expert but I understood that 'recovery' partition doesn't exist. I found some possible solutions online such as writing 'fastboot flash RECOVERY recovery.img' or 'fastboot flash erecovery recovery.img' (because Huawei calls the stock one 'erecovery') but they both gave me another error:
Code:
fastboot flash RECOVERY recovery.img
target reported max download size of 535822336 bytes
sending 'RECOVERY' (16544 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.522s]
writing 'RECOVERY'...
FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.528s
UPDATE: I found, maybe, the correct name of the recovery partition and it seems to work:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp.img
< waiting for device >
target reported max download size of 535822336 bytes
sending 'recovery_ramdisk' (14026 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.443s]
writing 'recovery_ramdisk'...
OKAY [ 0.323s]
finished. total time: 0.767s
BUT it actually doesn't work properly because when I boot into recovery it boots the stock one. I tried other solutions found on the net like instantly unplug the phone after the flash and reboot it into recovery immediately but again it boots into stock one...
OTHER UPDATE: I managed to find and flash a TWRP that can boot up but it shows the internal storage 0MB not allowing me to install any .zip file. Because of that, I cannot install SuperSU to get root access.
I tried installing TWRP also with stock ROM but still showing 0MB because the phone is encrypted. To disable encryption I need to install the bluspark TWRP (As I found online), the problem is that bluspark won't boot and gets immediately overwritten by the stock ROM as it happened with the one I mentioned in the first update of the post.
Now I will try buying a microSD card and see if it shows right so that I can still flash .zip from the microSD card.
Now:
LATEST UPDATE: The SD card is working properly and I see it as around 60 GB instead of 64 but that's not the problem. I can see the .zip files I'd want to flash but when I try to do it it says me that it failed to mount every single partition and after some research I discovered that my Huawei has all the data encrypted. After other research I found that there are some TWRPs like blu_spark that could decrypt the data but every version I tried doesn't work and gets immediately overwritten by the stock recovery.
Does anyone know other methods to decrypt all the data on Huawei? Otherwise it's impossible to flash any .zip. Actually it flashes it but it fails to update the partitions state so the system doesn't recognize the changes.
Rooting Huawei is so difficult.. I will buy an OP5t as soon as I have the money XD.
Y6 2018 twrp
Any progress? I'm also looking for a version of TWRP that works with the Y6 2018.
Hi guys , i was running AOSIP PIE rooted and bootloader unlocked. I did an update of Magisk.

First, in TWRP, advance wipe everything! Now, you need a pc, connect the phone to PC with a USB, on pc, download any ROM you want (and gapps if you want) now transfer the files to your phone and then flash them, izi,
Thumbs up if I was useful.
