I saw a same thread but i am using KII-L22
what should i do first? i think i had a backup where i am still unrooted but already have TWRP.
my guess is that I should reflash to stock recovery first then update via OTA to marsh mallow then root and install TWRP again then flash CM13.
if my guess is correct then how do I revert from TWRP to stock recovery?

Grab the stock recovery of KII-L22 and flash it using fastboot. Same way you flashed TWRP.

I would like to point you to the firmware I used. It was KII-L22 B310 Thailand firmware. It has the stock recovery for sure. It is uploaded by Honor but I can't find it anymore. Sorry man.

Do you have a firmware online on Huawei website or in 5X file repository.
If yes, just use huawei update extractor to extract stock recovery.img from it.
That's it! Search for any KII-L22 stock firmware then extract the stock recovery from it.

will it work even if the stock rom is from MM not Lollipop? can't seem to find the Lollipop version.
if its compatible then this will make it easier since ill use the full stock rom after flashing the recovery

I suppose it will still work. Recoveries are seldom tweaked.

It's better to be safe than sorry
Just google huawei firmware finder by team MT, install and I am sure you can use it to search a lollipop firmware for your phone.
If you want to install MM directly then get MM firmware, extract recovery, flash it and use three button method to update.
You will lose all your data in this way.
i found what you were referring to sir adrian. i will give it a shot and give feedback. thanks everyone.

Yes. I am in B310 when I flashed CM13. B350 is fine. B360 is the one with bootloops.

I have a similar problem here: I have an unlocked and rooted KIW-L21C432 with Resurrection Remix installed and a backup (B140 firmware version) where I already have TWRP installed as the recovery but am not rooted yet. I want to go back to stock in order to be able ro get the OTA for MM and then install the most recent Resurrection Remix ROM.
adriansticoid said:

So, what would be the procedure for me?
Flash the (unrooted) B140 backup using TWRP.
Use fastboot to flash the correct stock recovery from the honor 5X file depot issueing:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
.
Upgrade to the most recent firmware version B340 via OTA update.
Flash most recent TWRP version using fastboot:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp_kiwi.img
.
Root and flash CustomROM.
Is this correct? Is there any smarter way to achieve the official update to MM (like those full revert packages I read about)?
What if my backup was rooted already? Would this lead to any problems? I am not 100% sure whether I was maybe already rooted when I did the initial backup :/
Thanks and best regards

Yes that's correct. You need a clean, unrooted stock so you can update officially

Thanks, but what if the backup is rooted as well? Do I then have to do the manual MM update procedure described here?

How exaxtly can I tell? It was rooted when I was still on 5.1.1 (firmware version B140), so I'm not sure whether it's systemless root or not.
Then flash full B330:
http://download-c.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=90763&version=354362&siteCode=fr-h
Put the (uncompressed) DLOAD folder at the root of your SD Card.
Power up the phone with Vol up & vol down pressed, then release once you show the logo, it will automatically flash the rom.
Once done, you are on stock unrooted B330, then you can boot/flash TWRP, then finally flash CM13.
Guys I have a rooted Redmi note 4 with TWRP recovery. I'm on developer beta ROM running dev v7.6.22 and I just got an update to v7.6.29 with 84 mb. I'm unable to update it via TWRP. It's saying that the updating process ended with an error. So no way to update.... we've to wait for full ROM update (like 1.5gb) to jump to the new version.
Or do u guys have any suggestions??
Its occurred because of the TWRP Recovery. You can flash Stock Recovery or u Have to download full update package.

Not Possible with Minimal updates it will result in Bootloops.
there's a new OTA update available but i can't seem to update via custom recovery
You can't update via ota if you have a custom recovery. You'll have to download full custom recovery Rom(1.8 gb) and flash it via twrp.
The update your talking about is 10.0.3.7 isnt it?

there are modified TWRP version in xda which supports OTA updates, try with those!
or as told above download full rom 1.8gb and flash it via twrp!
on saperate note,
always download full ROM and flash it because you may never know if OTA gets failed to flash and /or you have device booting in to fastboot Bot.
I always download FULL ROM (both Recovery(1.8gb) and Fastboot2.8gb

I am not sure about that. But I strongly believe that you would need to flash magisk again to root the new ColorOS ROM
Bro can you give your experience on what happened ?

Where any of your files deleted after flashing OTA files ?
Did you had to flash TWRP again?
