Installing Stock ROM and Recovery. - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi.I just saw that it is possible to install stock ROM via custom recovery,just by editing it.
Here is the video I saw: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZqOE5qtFKDk.
Basically,I want to try this on my Huawei Y6 SCL-L01,which now it is running CM 12.1 with TWRP 3.0.2 and SuperSU(forgot the version).
My questions are:
1.Will it work?
2.Will it reinstall stock recovery,unroot and relock bootloader?
3.Will it work fine after installing stock rom?(when I restored nandroid with TWRP it wouldn't recognise my SIM Card.)
Any advices?I really want to get back to stock.
EDIT: Here is the download for Stock ROM : http://consumer.huawei.com/nl-en/support/downloads/detail/index.htm?id=77268

[Q] how to upgrade Cwm and custom rom doubts.

So I'm running Cwm version 5.8.1.5 and on stock rom. Now I want to put a custom kitkat rom . so for that, do I need to upgrade my cwm to 6.0.4.5?If so then how do I do it( wanna confirm)?
And just so that the process is streamlined, can anyone tell me the exact procedure before and after flashing the rom via CWM?

If you want back-up apps and data with titanium back-up.
Put all the files you need on your phone (CWM kitkat compatible, rom, gapps) reboot into recovery, nandroid back-up, flash the kitkat compatible CWM, reboot into recovery and follow the steps in the op of the rom you want to install.

[Q] Stock bootloader or recovery tool

I have a problem, hope you guys can help.
I have rooted my A116 & took backup of stock ROM. Then I flashed it with CWM bootloader. After this step I forgot to take backup of my Stock ROM & I have installed a custom ROM.
Now CWM is not detecting backup made with stock bootloader or recovery tool.
How I can install this old ROM back. Can I get stock bootloader so that I can flash it back & Install my stock ROM from backup.
Thanks in advance.

Root on Lollipop custom ROMs?

Hi,
I've been fiddling around with Lollipop for the Z2 device today and I've got a question.
Are 5.1.1 based custom ROMs root-possible? I've first managed to make a stock pre-rooted 5.1.1 .ftf and everything was fine, both root and recovery, but my phone was overheating like crazy on it so I decided to try a custom ROM, Paranoid Android to be exact. I got the latest stable from their site and almost successfully installed it using the TWRP. Almost, because I forgot to re-flash the recovery. Then it turned out I can't root it and couldn't find a way to do so. I've since gone back to 4.4.2 using Flashtool, rooted it and installed the XZDualRecovery.
So, my question(s) is/are, what did I do wrong? Would flashing the flashable XZDualRecovery after the custom ROM and gapps sufficied? Or maybe flashing the SuperSU package? Or maybe, is it impossible to have a rooted custom ROM on 5.1.1? And if isn't, I'd be really grateful if someone supplied me with a hint or something, because I don't want to go through all the trouble only to downgrade again.
I'm using this for recovery : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785598
And used this guide for the prerooted .ftf, though I guess it's not related at all to my questions, except the SuperSU package I'm thinking of using: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2/general/4-4-4-creating-rooted-update-package-t2933155
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: OK, I've tried my own advice and flashed SuperSU and flashable XZDualRecovery after flashing the custom ROM and Gapps. Now the phone is rooted, but the custom recovery doesn't stick. I tried installing again using the installer version, which soft rebooted into the custom recovery, but after the manual boot the recovery was gone and the garbled screens were back.
My question has changed then, what is the way to having a custom recovery on a custom ROM on lollipop 5.1.1?
EDIT2: Nvm fixed it... , I went to NUT's website and made recovery using his kernel creator.
Sorry for wasting space then and I hope my post helps someone eventually.
You can flash superSU via recovery on any rom
Worst that can happen is it bootloops.

Need a few questions answered to getting to stock and then custom ROM

I'm confused on a few things,
I once had Cyanogenmod with Marshmellow, after updating to an OTA Cyanogen version I got stuck into bootloop and for some reason I couldn't get back to Cyanogenmod in TWRP recovery and the only nandroid backup was B331 which is only Lollipop Stock which i'm currently on. Now I just want to start from scratch and get back to latest Cyanogenmod with Marshmellow. Where do I start? I have Current Build KIW-L24C567B331 that is currently Lollipop and I wiped my internal SD. When I try and look for Stock OTA updates it says no updates, the update client has NEVER worked on this phone. I have currently TWRP recovery on it. Do I have to go to a certain build to get back to Marshmellow? then go to Marshmellow Stock then to Cyanogenmod?
I tried following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-5x/how-to/guide-kiw-l24-to-stock-t3318268 but I don't understand which stock I should go to and the instructions aren't very clear (maybe i'm just dumb)
Another question: for each Custom ROM I install do I go back to a certain stock build then flash the custom ROM?
Much help appreciated,
Thanks
Are you in stock Marshmallow before you flashed CM?
Sent from my honor 5X using XDA Labs
if you are saying that you have twrp, with lollipop emui on, due to twrp, you will never get any update,
since you want marshmallow, i think you need to be upgraded to marshmallow firmware,
to do so, you need to download the marshmallow build, generally the b331 firmware in the link you provided...(dated:10/07/2016)
go ahead and download that firmware and follow the procedure, in the end, you will be left with the marshmallow emui build with stock recovery on (eligible for ota and warranty )...
now, since your bootloader is still unlocked(i guess), you can reboot to bootloader and fastboot twrp recovery(latest twrp is recomended)..
and now, you are pretty much good to go.... download latest cm13 nightly and install... enjoy
please do perform the steps carefully:good:
AND NO, YOU DO NOT NEED TO GO BACK TO A STOCK BUILD TO FLASH CERTAIN CUSTOM ROMS

[Request] Latest MM prerooted flashable zip

Hello.I would like to try the latest Marshmallow rom.As i am on latest LP..Can i flash the rom with same recovery?(nut's dual recovery) and later return to my restored LP rom with again the same recovery?
Thanks.
anyone?at least can someone tell me which version of supersu can i put inside prf creator?
hey there
Make a backup of your LP ROM.
In the first post you can find a prerooted MM ROM for the SGP611 (WiFi Version), i just flashed it and it worked.
Here
Also you can restore your /data from your Backup in recovery after flashing the ROM, so you don't have to set up everything again (you can also use TitaniumBackup).
The only thing you have to do is reinstalling the xposed framework if you were using it.
And you're done.
I don't know if you can switch back to LP, since the MM Rom flashed new Firmware. Haven't tried it yet.
Also i use TWRP as recovery and i would suggest you that too.
thanks.is there any method for rooting with supersu as i trust it more?Also the rom from this thread is the latest Marshmallow?Also with restore i mean if i for some reason dont like Marshmallow..Will i be able to restore my previous Lollipop backup from twrp?
