TWRP Backup - L22 Marshmallow - Required - Honor 5X Questions & Answers

Hi
Can someone please share me the TWRP backup of the L22 Marshmallow.
I need it really badly. My phone's running crazy. I have been struggling with it for the past two days, but couldn't get any of stock firmware working.
I have TWRP for Lollipop 130, but that didn't help.

With CPU-Z App it shows bootloader as Unknown. Is it possible to use fastboot flash bootloader and flash the bootloader image. I extracted the update.app and cant from any bootloader images in there.
Also, It would be really useful if someone with L22 stock share their build.prop.

I'm not sure why you would expect a modified device like that to take an OTA, or why you would want to. If you do want the OTA, you have to restore the phone to stock. Other than that, you will have to see if someone will release the update as a custom rom to install through TWRP. There are no other options.
Are u asking why i expect? Because the developer of TWRP for z2 pro sais that it works OTA

It is a solution, i need the stock recovery, to flash it, then update, and then revert back to twrp , root.
So anyone have the recovery stock img for me pls.
Thank u a lot!

They're not referring to stock OTAs, but custom ones, such as CyanogenMod. You might need to flash the whole firmware package or see if you can extract the recovery img from it. If you can extract, then just flash with Flashify.

Converting .zip package into .img files

Hi all
I'd like to convert an ota update package from .zip to boot/recovery/system images i googled it for sometime and cant seem to find any helpful info on how to do it.
First off im using GR5 KII-L21 and before i started this journey i was @ android 5.1.1 the updated manually -used this- to android 6.0.1 then flashed twrp onto my phone and then rooted it. while i was tweaking and modding i messed something up and as usual i didnt make a twrp backup before i started playing with my system. and twrp always fails to install the update package i used to get from 5.1.1 to 6.0.1 and im stuck
I got a twrp backup for the gr5 kii-l21 somewhere from here flashed it and im back to 5.0.1 now a new issue arises when i try to update via ota to 5.1.1 the update always fails with "software update failed" message and i cant find the local update option to use the 6.0.1 update. So i got myself one of them kiwi 6.0.1 update.app and extracted the boot/recovery/system images and flashed them via adb. Now im on 6.0.1 again but still cant see the local update option in the updater app. It works and everything but it feels wrong somehow. The updater app is trying to update the 5.0.1 to 5.1.1 even tho its on 6.0.1 now.
If its not possible to convert the .zip update to images .img I'd like to have the original 5.0.1 for the GR5 KII-L21 with boot and recovery images or as a twrp backup and i'll work my way from there, thanks.

it's my thread bro lol :laugh:
okay it's not a full rom it just an update to mm based on lolipop
Thx for the help. Now that CM13 supports fingerprint sensor im moving to it instead.

Phone in bootloop, KIW-L21

Hi guys, I wanted to install CM13, so I decided to unlock the bootloader, root and then try and flash. But that didn't go as expected, as I wanted to have my fingerprint sensor working, I had to upgrade from MM, but I had LP installed. Here's all I did, in order (remember it's a KIW-L21) :
-Unlock bootloader
-Install TWRP 3.21 and rooting using this guide
- Then I realized I couldn't upgrade from LP. So I tried to revert using the TWRP backup in this guide
- Then I did the official OTA update to B140
And now I'm in bootloop. Any ideas on what to do? Did I brick my phone ?
I can still access recovery, but it's the EMUI recovery, so all I can do is reboot, factory reset or wipe cache. Not much help from that.
Bump.
Okay so I got into fastboot mode. Any ideas on what I should do ? Put back TWRP ?
You need to flash the full stock ROM.
Tuto in French: Fichiers et liens utiles pour le Honor 5X KIW-L21
Thanks a bunch mooms, I had managed to find the Huawei Update Extractor to flash the images by searching for "bricked" or "bootloop" on this forum, but I was unsure of which stock ROM download.
Another question, is it okay to flash the stock B330 if I was on the B140 before ?
Flashing the full b330 should work.
If not, try to flash b130 or b140 first , then b330.

If it was on lollipop, it is best method to flash a Full Lollipop firmware package instead of Marshmallow.

The stock recoveries are towards the bottom of the post. You can use Rashr or flashify from play store to flash. I prefer Rashr personally.
I just noticed you said l21. Sorry these are for l24

your phone must also pass the system partition check
you need an untouched system.img so you can revert to stock
If you want to avoid all this in the future it's quite simple
before doing anything to your phone with the phone turned off
plug phone into PC / hold volume down + power to enter the bootloader
from the PC command prompt use
fastboot boot TWRP.img
after it boots go to Backup and backup
Boot
Recovery
system (not system.img)
cust
oeminfo
efs1
efs2
firmware
modem
Save this backup to your PC so you can restore it for the next OTA update
Note: when restoring for the update only restore Boot / Recovery / System
the rest of the files are just in case something happens to your phone and you need them.

Hi, if I install TWRP and then do a complete backup will it backup my stock recovery as well or is there another way to backup the stock recovery?
P.S. I already have the backup of L22- B340 and when restored it doesn't get back to stock recovery. I'm completely clueless about how to extract the stock recovery.

to make more clarity..
now am having stock rom EMUI 3.1 on KIW-L21C185 B140 (middle east variant) with stock recovery and root enabled.
previously using TWRP as recovery. never installed custom rom.
despite using stock recovery and stock rom, ota update failed during update (failure happens 25-30%)
i dont have an untouched system image for KIW-L21C185 B140 (middle east variant), if flashing this with TWRP solve the issue please provide link.
TWRP backup need to done after only update right?
what if i install "stock rom + stock recovery" using twrp? if it will be working please provide file link.
not sure both are same. used to do this way on samsung s2.
ps : while in recovery mode after failed ota update failure it asked for a recovery update. and recovery update is also failed due to some failure to gather information. sorry for missing the exact reason for recovery update failure. stock recovery installed from the file you provided.
Thanks

no you boot recovery.img so you can backup stock recovery
your backup was done after TWRP was flashed ... stock recovery is overwritten when you Flash TWRP
Their is a collection of Stock recovery's in the File Depot. If you have one that's not in the list please share it with the others

Unroot, do a factory reset and try to apply update again.
If that does not work, you can always try a force update.

Restore Stock FW Huawei Mate 10 PRO (BLA-09)

Hi guys,
yesterday I succesfully unlocked bootloader on my Mate 10 PRO (Bla-L09) and installed LineageOS 15.1 with success.
The problem is that now I just want to recover my stock firmware on it.
I downloaded the update.zip from the site (for my branded phone) and it was C55 version but I don't know how to repair it. Just tried to reflash stock recovery and start recovery mode but with no success. Installation hang on 5% and then phone reboots automatically.
Already tried to flash SYSTEM.img (from Huawei Update Extractor) with fastboot: it flashes correctly but im impossible to boot the devices.
I am sure that I do something wrong. Can you help me please?
Hi,
Where have you found original stock rom. It is my impression that it is not available. Could you please provide a link?
Thanks

After flashing back stock system.img you need to Factory Reset in stock recovery. Alternatively use HWOTA: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-10/how-to/guide-mate-10-flash-oreo-update-package-t3716814
Always make a Twrp backup of your rom so you don't have to worry about flashing back like this.Thats what I do and I have never had a issue.
