Ok long story short i'm confused as to what's up with this device. I just picked it up and started messing with it. Looks like it has mako bootloader unlock and cwm 6x recovery installed. The only roms it can flash is cm12.1 and the factory ATT images correctly. I tried to update to the newer version of CWM or TWRP via fastboot and the flash takes but no recovery is present. Things i've tried =
Full factory reset via LGE970AT-01-V20j-310-410-MAR-08-2013 (this leaves me with no bootloader/fastboot/recovery) It boots but black screen on bootanimation.
tinybin (both options) only the altern will boot but. (have fastboot but no recovery.)
So long story... In stock firmware I can install freegee and unlock via mako but there will be no recovery if I choose TWRP and CWM won't install anything bt CM... I'm attempting to install Blisspop btw.
Any help would be great. Thank you
I came from cm13 and i suddenly think of returning back to stock lollipop. After a few days, I realize cm13 is a lot better. I downgraded back to kitkat and unlocked the bootloader the way I did before. Before, it was successful. But now, when I flash TWRP and reboot to recovery using flashify, it shows security boot error. I upgraded to stock lollipop and tried it unlocking bootloader there. I flashed TWRP but when I entered TWRP, I cannot reboot back to system. I cannot get out of recovery!! Pleasee help... I want to get cm13 back

you should write this in other section but i want to help you.
maybe try to flash stock kdz again if you still can then check if bootloader method you use is correct but if was not you will brick your phone.

actually i gave a answer for you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64674426&postcount=2
u even can flash kdz ? if yes, try it and check if your bootloader unclocking method, file, is correct.
You could brick your phone.
Obtained phone with buggy touchscreen. Flashed CM to see if it fixed it. Didn't. Trying to go back to full stock for return
Recovered stock device via TWRP then installed what I thought was a stock recovery.img, except it wasn't - it was a CM recovery
The CM recovery only lets me boot to recovery or the bootloader - no other options are functional
In the bootloader the FRP is locked and doesn't let me flash TWRP or stock recovery
What should I do to replace the CM recovery with TWRP or stock when the FRP is locked?
THanks

Go into developer options and enable OEM unlocking

I have just now read your post thoroughly you said that the touchscreenis buggy,is it twrp or in the system
If it's twrp don't worry I too have the same problem in the version I tried eg. 3.0.2.0,3.0.1.0,3.0.0.0
But if it's in system try factory resetting
And change smart power saving mode to performance
But to unlock frp(i suppose you have already unlocked your bootloader) just go into developer options and enable OEM unlocking option
Ok I got the stock recovery back:
I booted into the bootloader and used the local command window to fastboot boot a twrp image from my computer
With TWRP booted (but not installed) on my phone I put in a sd card with a stock recovery image, and used the booted TWRP to install the stock recovery
Unfortunately, I have not figured out how to relock the boot loader, but hopefully they overlook/don't care about that for a return - I did not root the phone
U can relock bootloader in honor5x
I think I have a similar problem. I bought new KIW-L24, I unlocked bootloader, flashed twrp to go to RR Nougat ROM. When I started Twrp to install ROM it said "Comparing tarz 2.2 to 2.5" so I read that I had update to MM.
I went to settings>updater and started update to M331 EMUI 4.0 ROM on the twrp recovery instead of stock recovery. I have M331 ROM now but I can't fastboot the TWRP recovery anymore. It sat twrp installed successful but the EMUI Stock recovery opens up when hitting Vol. + and Power instead of Twrp.
I noticed fastboot menu shows Phone unlocked but it does not say FRP Unlocked anymore. Does that prevent me from installing custom recovery now? Please...any help is appreciated.

Just delete the google account in your phone and do a factory reset. Later reboot but skip adding gmail . This will unlock frp .

Can the frp relocking stop me from flahing twrp? Or is it this stock rom I am on? Do you know if other people have problems flashing twrp on L24 B311 MM update? Could I have caused my issue when I updated to the official rom using the twrp? I didn't think the update would work without stock recovery but it did. I did factory resets but I still can't install install any custom recovery. Can I go back to earlier stock rom?
I followed your instructions and deleted Google accounts and factory restored. I go to bootloader and it says Phone Unlocked but does not say FRP unlocked anywhere. I flshed twrp anyways and although cmd window shows it flashed OK when I reboot the stock EMUI Recovery opens again.
Edit: Now I use adb and mfastboot.exe to open twrp and do a backup. I don't know if I install a different rom if I will able to finally install twrp. I wonder if this 331 stock rom is the problem or FRP is issue here. Never had this problem with my Gold Honor 5X.

Ok. Ive never done this this way. When installing Twrp image it asks where to install? Select Partition to Flash image: Boot, OEMinfo, or Recovery. Do I just press Recovery only?

Select only recovery
ok I installed image, chose recovery, and installed superSU_2.46.zip but it still only boots up EMUI Stock recovery. Unfortunately its stuck in bootloop now so now I cant even adb/fastboot into twrp anymore. Now my only option is holding vol +- and Power to install update from sd card (dload folder). I just dont kmow what FW file to use.

I ended up trying everything. I held volume - and Power to force Fastboot&Rescue Mode. I did fastboot boot twrp_kiwi.IMG. When in Twrp I install twrp_kiwi.IMG (For permanent Install) but EMUi recovery still stays.
I believe the custom recovery is installing but NOT where it needs to install.(Probably a different partition). I noticed a erecovery when I extracted an update file with HuaweiExtractor with does program. I DID get out of Bootloop by applying update from SD card (Force Update Volume - and Plug in USB cable). I rolled the FW back to B130 Emui 3.1 Firmware. I still need to fash Twrp and update this phone now.

Yes I think the FRP Lock is on. It only says: Phone Unlocked. Before it used to say hone Unlocked and FRP unlocked.

Yes I had removed gmail account. I went to settings>accounts and deleted Google and all other accounts. Does FRP Unlock when you unlock Bootloader?

U can try that
Lets start off with telling you i am a newbie and was just following tutorials without really knowing what i was doing.
That said, i tried to install a custom ROM but got an error (7) in TWRP. Decided to reflash my old rom and update TWRP using the official TWRP app.
So i did that but when i wanted to boot into recovery it was stuck on the oneplus screen. I went into fastboot and typed fastboot oem unlock because i thought i could flash TWRP that way if the bootloader was unlocked.
When i tried to restart it gave me nothing but the oneplus screen, even the bootloader wont start. I shut it off completely and now it doesn't give me anything at all - just black.
Can someone help me out?
EDIT:
Issue resolved using THIS. Tyvm
