Hi i have a GR5 KII-L33 model (single sim), can i use any rom for kiw-l21, l22, etc. (CM13 and others)?
do i need to do extra steps? i dont want to brick my phone :silly:
Hey
make sure that you take full stock backup before flashing the ROM
use fastboot boot twrp.img to run twrp without replacing stock recovery then backup everything
after that you can flash twrp with normal command then flash cm
after flashing the ROM, you need to follow these steps here, to get your single sim working
I answered you in cm thread and here to talk more [emoji14]
And yes you can use any CM/AOSP Roms, don't mess around with stock roms

hi, just curious about the backup everything.
does TWRP backup our stock recovery partition? because you said that we have to boot twrp then backup everything. i wonder if we restore using twrp, will our old/original recovery return? i know that we can use update.app to restore stock recovery and rom.
i am new to this huawei device since i've been using htc one x and did flash custom rom also twrp. but my device is KII-L22 and keen to flash crpalmer's CM.
thanks.

So i am on the new miui using the oficial flash thing (unlocked bootloader oficialy).
The thing is i always wanted to get root and use a kernel on xda here that gives more available memory and solves some of the heating problems when charging (but i know need TWRP ofc) .
So i went to here and checked a few guides however there are many twrp's versions some of them i can't flash miui oficial roms, some of them i need installl boot.img every single time or when i want to restore backup is not just select the backup and done, i need to do something else (is a bit confusing)... so instead i decided to ask you guys directly
The question is:
- If i wanted to use oficial miui but have root and install a kernel and in future just flash the new miui rom again without any stress (just twrp -> flash-> select rom and gapps and done), no boot.img bull****, no flash another twrp etc is it possible??
(before this phone i had moto g(1st gen) and was easy as to put ONE twrp and then would be always flash rom + gapps every single time, no boot.img no firmware, worked for CM12, 12.1 and 13)
Install Alka recovery and back up all the partitions before doing anything.

Although I haven't tried it personally, the TWRP explanation guide here says the Cofface TWRP (linked on that page) automatically patches the boot.img when you flash a new ROM, which I believe solves your problem.

Hello guys
I was on stock android and stock recovery oos 3.1.3. I tried to change recovery using fastboot so i tried so many recovries, but unable to flash anyone then i found twrp recovery by teamspark so i flashed it and successfully done, but problem with it is, i am not able toh flash paranoid rom and stock rom using this recovery and even the stock recovery is also not flashable now, just stuck on logo whenever i flash stock recovery. So which recovery i can use which can correctly flashable and i can flash paranoid rom by that successfully.
Thanks in advance.
Flash old stock recovery followed by any OOS 2.X.X firmware . Now you can proceed with PA. Note dont use any of the twrp's designed for mm bootloader.

First of all, you have to downgrade your bootloader. Then you can flash any recovery for the old bootloader.
Thanks i m done now

Thank you so much brother now i m able to flash.
I am on Global stable miui 8.2.4 but for some reasons i don't like it and i wanna downgrade to 8.1.15 . I have Twrp installed and rooted . Can i flash recovery 8.1.15 rom using twrp ?
Or i need to flash a fastboot rom using twrp ?
somebody?
I have flashed stock 8.2.4.0 from 8.2.2.0 with flashfire, although I have twrp too. No problems just put the zip in right folder.
Yes you can. I have flashed both dev and stable. @jazzh mentions something about folders. TWRP doesn't really care about that.
Be warned though that flashing the official zip also replaces the recovery and there is a bug with 8.1.15 where you cannot flash TWRP back afterwards.
If you go back to 8.1.15 and want to use TWRP for flashing a custom rom simply use
fastboot boot [recovery name].img
to soft load TWRP and do all your work from there up.
Yes, that's a good advice.
I soft boot twrp whenever performing backup or updating magisk.
I just mentioned folders because flashfire is started from os and it will look into the ota folder and if it finds the zip it will offer rebooting to perform the update.
Hi,
I want to install twrp in my 5x l24 us version. I read some threads here at XDA about twrp and rooting of honor 5x. But I am not sure where to start. I am hoping that someone here can guide me a little. I currently have emui 4.0 with marshmallow official from huawei.
My questions are:
1. Should I make nan droid backup of my phone before proceeding to install twrp? I am not sure what exactly is nan droid backup.
2. Is there any risk of device being bricked during the installation of twrp?
3. I read a thread named twrp for l24 l22 l23 and so on.. Does this method work anymore? Because I see users complaining about some twrp issues.
4. What are the safety measures I should do before doing any rooting, flashing?
Note - I don't do much rooting or flashing stuff that's why I am asking here. Thank you in advance

It's all already answered, but OK.
0. You must unlock your bootloader before any of those,
1. you can try just booting into TWRP (fastboot boot recovery.img) and try backing up everything from there. I'm not sure that one works, I simply flashed TWPR and continued backing up from there,
2. No way you can brick it if you go by instructions; follow simple instructions from TWRP thread == recovery flash without issues. This device is flash-friendly
3. This one? That would be an official TWRP thread, so... it works, my L21 is on latest 3.1.1 build.
4. Always have a backup and don't flash anything you're not sure it will work and that's it. So, you've freshly flashed TWRP, first thing would be to make a system backup, that way, if anything goes wrong with rooting or custom ROMs, you can always go back to stock one without hastle.
Hope that helped.

Hey I had EMUI 4.0 so Android 6.0.1 installed. So I unlocked bootloader and installed twrp without doing a backup. But now there is a big problem. No custom Roms will ever boot. So I cant boot to any rom and don't have a backup.

Um, you did a clean install? I see you're from Germany, so I guess you're using KIW-L21 model, which is fully compatible with all ROMs out there (and it still didn't receive VoLTE update if I'm not wrong). Try clearing everything and flashing again, if not, restore stock recovery via fastboot and do a emergency reflash of full EMUI firmware.

Yes I did a clean install with Aosp Rom, LineageOS, Ressurection remix, XenonHD Rom but every Rom encpountered a bootloop where the animation ran for 10 seconds and then stopped. After that the phone rebooted and so on . And do you have a link for flashable L21 EMUI stock rom? And stock firmware only installable with stock recovery or TWRP?
I also encountered this situation, how to solve, help me! Thank you

Can u explain what u did clearly ?
EDIT: I figured it out myself, for anyone else in the same situation: I downloaded the proper Stock Rom for my phone and just flashed it with fastboot flash, no custom recovery was needed. After that I simply flashed Lineage OS and it's working like a charm.
Hello, I recently switched back to an Android phone that's why I'm a bit rusty. I successfuly installed Resurrection Remix on my Huawei P20 Lite.
After realizing there is no Notch support I decided to go back to stock or switch to Lineage OS.
Now I have two questions:
1) On the OpenKirin page it says you need stock EMUI 8.0 before you apply one of their ROMs. Does this mean if I want to switch to Lineage OS I need to go back to stock EMUI or can I go from RR to Lineage?
2) I downloaded 'Huawei P20 Lite-ANE-LX1 8.0.0.144(C432).zip' from xda which is supposed to be the stock rom. In the instructions on here it says I need to install TWRP. However OpenKirin says their ROMs don't work with TWRP. Can I just flash the stock firmware with adb fastboot, like described in the OpenKirin FAQ?
So my question basically is, what do I have to do to go from RR with stock recovery back to stock EMUI?
im in the same problem.. my fone brick in twrp logo.... i dont know how pass this logo
You can use eRecovery to download the entire ROM, you need the stock recovery and flash it with fastboot (fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdisk.img) then go to the recovery mode and download the rom using WiFi and that's all, as advice I recomend you always make a system backup in the sdcard using TWRP. Sorry for my bad english. You can dowload the recovery here
