Hello there I have a couple questions regarding to the red honor boot logo and also on how to update from a stock rom with TWRP and root ( also a couple of system modifications ) to the new B331 update.
So heres the rundown, when I first got my honor 5x I did not spend too much time on the stock rom I went ahead and rooted my phone and installed TWRP then made a backup of my stock rom (B151) no modifications other than SuperSU being installed. After that I went ahead and installed CM13 nightlies and updated mostly everyday up until the build July-18-16. I had adoptable storage enabled with my 32GB SD card and I totally forgot to disable the adoptable option before I reverted to my stock backup so when I went onto TWRP and tried to restore my backup I always got an error where it said something along the lines " error; could not find system" but instead of it backing out it continued to restore and bricked my phone. I had a somewhat clever idea to flash any build of CM13 I had on my computer and guess what it booted then I disabled the adoptable storage and booted back onto TWRP restored my backup and everything was fine until it booted and I noticed the honor boot logo had a red "h". I found that weird since I have restored my backup previously and that never happened. Anyone knows what it could mean and how to fix it?
My second question is how should I go about updating to B331? Should I download the stock recovery B151 ( since that is what shipped with my phone and is what my backup is) then revert to my near stock backup, flash stock recovery and unroot then update through cslA's B331 instructions? Or should I somehow fix the red honor boot logo then go ahead with what I stated above or is this all done differently? I am not a newbie at these kind of things I just moved onto more important things in life and simply want to update my phone. My needs for flashing new roms daily are over and I just simply like huawei's UI as it just "works" for me. Thanks to anyone who responds anything is appreciated as I can't seem to get my old skills working again. Haha:laugh:
Fibgerprint aint working right? U cant go back to stock with just a normal twrp backup. Install an update.app through dload for your region and then apply the twrp backup.. Make sure you are on B151 Recovery!

No, my fingerprint is working... I just wanted to go back to stock ROM with root and that's what I got just now I have a red honor bootlogo. Now I want to update to marshmallow but I have a fear that even if I follow the steps onto reverting to stock I may brick it because of the red bootlogo.
So what you are saying is I should download my B151 recovery and firmware to revert to stock then update and from there I should root and install TWRP?

Hello guys, i've recently got back to stock rom just to be sure to delete every mod done to my MB860, did this via RSD (A safe method tested even after with unlocked bootloader).
Thing is, when doing a backup of the rom via CWM says the next message:
error while making a backup image of /pds!
I've installed long ago the PDS Fix but after i've replaced my touchscreen i've rolled back to my stock backed PDS, but the CMW doesn't seems to be able to back up that partition, so CWM is a no go, and i have to roll to TWRP to backup, but i wish to know if there's a fix to this issue.
Thanks.
Hi so after updating from the stock zv6 to lollipop update my phone won't install a custom ROM. Every time I try to turn it on it goes straight to TWRP and went I install a ROM or try to load a backup as soon as I hit reboot it goes back to the TWRP page. Amy ideas?
You must flash back, using Flashtool, to zv4, then reroot, then flash newest TWRP. OTA software not included, because they flash every partition of the phone, including the boot loader. Stock roms like zv6 and zv8(lollipop)or AOSP, must be flashed from xda from here on out, because they've been modified to work correctly on zv4 boot loader. TWRP and root access only work correctly with zv4 boot loader.

It sounds like there is no OS installed or it is stuck a reboot-loop. Try pulling the battery out for 10 seconds and if it still goes into twrp you know that it isn't a reboot-loop. When you go to restore a rom and it has the bar that shows the amount of storage does it say "0 MB"? If it does it means that twrp can't mount the storage on the phone thus causing it to not install/reboot. Have you tried side loading a rom via adb? Are you trying to install a rom off of a sdcard? I have seen many issues in the past sdcard related.
If you can please answer the following:
1) What is the message you are getting from twrp (if there is any)?
2) Have you installed a custom kernel and if so witch one?
3) What twrp are you running (the bumped one from xda or from the official twrp site) and what version is it?
4) Have you tried adb and pulling the battery?
If you answer these questions they should be able to tell us all that we need to know in order to help you out.
I had TWRP and tried install cm11, but it failed. Now i flashed stock recovery with Honor 6 MultiTool by VirusPlus and tried install stock OS, but stopped to 90%, now my phone just bootloops and can't install OS. And I'm really noob with these things. Please help me and sorry for my bad englsih.
Not sure why you didn't make a nandroid backup first, but I think it is failing because the build.prop, local.prop and other prop files must be stock before official update works. Probably the easiest thing at this point is just put TWRP back on and flash something like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-6/development/rom-r1-modaco-custom-rom-t3393674

Someone help me, that doesn't help. I flashed TWRP back and tried flash r7 MoDaCo Custom Rom (Stock Style beta ((cause emui style didn't have dl links)) ) and flashed succesful, but then tried reboot and then it bootlooped. (SRY FOR BAD ENG)
Problem solved. I unbricked phone with honor 6 multitool unbrick function.
Hey, new here....
So a while back a rooted my phone, which I followed a tutorial and all was fine, my phone has been fine. But today I decided I didn't want it rooted anymore and just wanted a clean install asif the phone was brand new, so I went into backup in settings and pressed complete system reboot and confirmed...
Then after a few minutes it send med to my team win recovery project recovery (the custom recovery I had flashed in order to root)
And so on there I reinstalled backup...
But now basically im stuck in a total loop where it will not let me do anything except load up twrp! =(
Even when I switch off and back on just straight to twrp... I have done "wipe" option, done "restore" option to no avail.
I want to get rid of twrp and just clean install nougat, is there anway I can do or have I ruined my phone?
Many thanks anyone who can help...

All you got to do is download sp_flash tool latest version, load the scatter file of rom, then simply go to options and then click to Connection, set usb speed to full speed, and Battery to w/o battery. Then make sure you have selected all the files needed to flash, next click the start button and connect your elephone while holding the volume + button. It will take a quite while but it will be successful.
Hi everyone, for quite some time I never had any issues upgrading mu phone MIUI, but recently the update process keeps failing, with Recovery Project 3.0.2-x complaining that the image zip (miui_MI5SPlusGlobal_9.6.27) is corrupted.
I started looking a bit more into it and it turns out my phone doesn't show as correctly rooted, so I was getting ready for doing a full root procedure, I backed everything up, get back to some tutorials and it seems like I should use TWRP and SuperSU.
It seems like SuperSU has been discontinued, so now I am kinda hanging, not being sure at all what I should do :S I would ideally want to upgrade to the latest MIUI
Any tip?
First Flash latest recovery.
https://dl.twrp.me/natrium/twrp-3.3.1-0-natrium.img
Download this latest Miui rom
https://sourceforge.net/projects/xi...5SPlus_V11.0.2.0.OBGCNXM_v11-8.0.zip/download
Do the wipes and install it.
For root you should flash magisk.
