Hello everyone! I'm new on XDA and this is my first thread.
So, I've been messing around with my Honor 7 lately. I've flashed a custom recovery (TWRP), flashed a custom ROM (Unofficial CM13 for Honor 7: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-7/development/unsupported-cyanogenmod-13-honor-7-plk-t3542627) and root (SuperSU) and I've started to regret all of my decisions so I would like to take a fresh start (AKA flashing the STOCK ROM/Firmware)
Now, before anyone starts redirecting me to other (similar) threads, I've tried a lot. I tried to flash the stock recovery (a lot of different versions) but still when I try to boot into the stock recovery, my phone just reboots. I tried to do the force update thing (holding both power + & - buttons: http://www.gogorapid.com/flash-stock-rom-huawei-honor-7/), but this combination just boots my phone into TWRP. Could it be that I'm doing something wrong or that I'm missing something, like some requirements that are not being met? Please help me, I would appreciate it a lot! Thanks in advance.

It seems that you didn't flash the stock recovery properly.

Thanks for the reply!
Could it be? I booted my phone into bootloader (unlocked) and flashed stock recovery with adb using the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img". I tried a variety of versions (from B100 up to B330 I think), but none of them seemed to work. What am I doing wrong?

Hello
After searching the internet for good 30-40 minutes I found the Stock OnePlus 2 recovery image. I am returning my unit so needed it to be fully stock.
Download: https://www.dropbox.com/s/8np35kw71i222as/OPT Stock Recovery.7z?dl=0
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Been searching for this for past hour!!!!!!
Hi,
Thank you very much.
I'm also returning my phone to oneplus and i had unlocked and rooted the phone like you.
May i know how you restore the stock ROM and recovery?
thank you
Why do you need stock recovery for that? I just wiped everything on mine and when I rebooted from twrp I chose not to protect twrp. Rma was approved so I guess they were satisfied with that.

What do you means by "wipe everything"? include internal storage?
And i heard that official twrp dont have the option of "not to protect twrp".

Yes, including internal storage.
That I didn't know, but you don't void warranty by installing custom recovery or rooting so it shouldn't be an issue either way.

Hey, I don't know if you ever found the stock recovery but another member had posted fastboot images in the OnePlus2 Android Development section.
I haven't tested out the recovery myself, but you can check to see if it's the English one.

One "?" is enough dude..
You have to install adb for Mac (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31374085/installing-adb-on-mac-os-x), enable USB Debugging on your phone, reboot into bootloader mode :
Code:
adb reboot-bootloader
then go into:
Code:

and then

TL;DR: Nexus 9 bootloops with every ROM other than stock.
My Nexus 9 will bootloop whenever any custom ROM is installed on it. I follow the usual steps in TWRP (downloading ROM and Gapps, wiping factory reset, flashing the zips and wipe dalvik/cache) will not get any error during installation and regardless of the ROM, I will get my nexus stuck on Google logo. Then I will have to unroot and install stock again and it'll work.
Ive also tried Wugfresh Nexus Root Toolkit and it won't work either. As long as Im on stock, I can root as well and everything is fine.
Any idea what could be happening? I wanna get rid of the damn lag. Have tried Cyanogenmod, Slimrom6 and Pure Nexus Project. All with their recommended gapps and will always end up with my tablet stuck in the Google logo.
Any help is very appreciated.
Sounds like you are doing everything right..
How long are you waiting for the device to start up ? Is it possible you aren't simply waiting long enough ? I'd give it a good 10 - 20 minutes on 1st boot before deciding it's hung in a boot loop.
I am having the exact same problem. I have tried so many roms that install correctly and then when flashing gapps and rebooting it is stuck on the Google logo. And I left my tablet on for a few hours so its definitely bootlooping.
The only thing that comes to mind is bootloader... If you coming to androind 7.x from android 6.x, you need to flash new bootloader (for example via ADB), otherwise you'll end up in a bootloop.
yup, happening to me too. so, how can i flash the factory image now? thanks.

I assume i need the latest 7.0.0 (NRD91N, Nov 2016) bootloader which is inside the latest build?
Then i will need to go through the process like:
Code:
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-flounder-3.48.0.0141.img
Or do i have to do more like described here (Steps 8-9)?
Your help is appreciated, thanks again!
ps: for others who got stuck in the bootloop and don't know how to stop it or turn off the device:
1. reboot into recoverymode in case you have twrp
2. open a terminal
3. type in
Code:
poweroff
an hit enter
Yes, NRD91N
Well , all i did was simple
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-flounder-3.48.0.0141.img
once complete
fastboot reboot-bootloader
That's it
Still not booting...

Thanks for clarifying that. Unfortunately i still can't boot into AOSP_flounder_11-18-2016.zip
which i flashed afterwards. The bootloader is shown correctly though. But when i start the
Nexus 9 the message https://g.co/ABH is shown in red.
Which rom are you running? A CM build or AOSP?
ps: trying with cm-14.1-20161027-UNOFFICIAL-flounder.zip now, but boot seems to hang too and the upper part
of the Nexus 9 is getting really warm. I will leave it for 15 more minutes to wait and see what happens.

Currently i reverted back to marshmallow roms, i find them more stable.
Do you have twrp? After flashing bootloader i go to twrp and do complete wipe and format data, then flash new rom. I had no problems booting.

Thank you maelfilk, i got i running now.
CM boots properly now - though i cannot configure it. During the Setup process
in the first step of selecting the language it crashes. I am sure this will be fixed
with a later version of CM-14.1.
Does someone know any other source for CM-14.1 for flounder?
Meanwhile i will try AOSP again.
Edit: AOSP boots properly but unfortunately WLAN does not work in the AOSP_flounder_11-18-2016.zip build.
I guess this is why you stick to the 6.x builds maelfilk.

In the archive with bootloader is another archive with vendor and other images. Just flash it in twrp as in the instructions in the link you gave. If you have trouble with wlan or camera it usually means that vendor is outdated.

Hi Guys,
I've got a SGP511 WiFi only (castor_windy), with root access and an unlocked bootloader. but to install AOSP 7.1 I need to update my version of TWRP to 3.0.0.
I installed TWRP via TabZ2-lockeddualrecovery2.8.26 batch file and can access recovery but every time i select install look at my SD card and change to images and select the castor_winsy 3.0.0 image i dont get an option to install to recovery i only get kernel how do i resolve this ?
I have re flashed FW (KitKat) via flashtool loads of times
rooted
installed TabZ2-lockeddualrecovery2.8.26 batch file
and every time i get the same option.... cant flash to recovery or boot only kernel
i have attached a screenshot so that nobody thinks i am going mad
can you please help me thanks :fingers-crossed:
It's been a while since I used TWRP 2.8.XX...so no idea what's the issue there but I'd just flash TWRP recovery via fastboot. Worked for me without any problems :good:

Hi ... Is that using the ADB fastboot recovery TWRP.img?
I am on KitKat just wondering if that's why it won't work have you got to be on 6.01 ?
Well, actually it shouldn't matter on which Android version you are, but to have the latest boot.img and radio.img installed I'd flash the latest stock ROM available here on XDA which means by the way having TWRP 3.0.2.0 as well and after that you might be ready for AOSP 7.1
Just have look at kulvertti's thread in the "General" subforum. Since you have already intalled a custom recovery there shouldn't be any problems.

Worked great for me! I always flash in TWRP, I guess that a I am old school. Thanks for pointing out the new version. I will have to try out the new ADB backup feature later. Although I am not sure if we are still having problems restoring backups like we used to on this phone. I haven't been able to keep up with the forum's lately.

Its all ok with Axon Zte A2017 Chinese.
The last TWRP I conscioulsy installed was 3.0.4.1 but it now shows 3.0.N1-1, what is that? Could it have been updated automatically from the TWRP app?
Also, before I noticed that my boot partition disappeared from TWRP, I can no longer make backups of it or restore the ones I had. Why could that happen? I get something like "unable to locate boot". Thanks

I am guessing you used EDL mode to install TWRP as that is the modified version, as I saw that too. I used TWRP to flash the 3.0.4-1 image and all is normal.
EDIT: TWRP 3.0.4-1 on A2017U Running modified Stock B15 (lots of APKs frozen). Flashing TWRP 3.1 both from TWRP and from "Official App" results with black screen for Recovery. TWRP 3.0.4-1 re-flashed OK from app.
N1-1 is from unjustified devs bootstack.

N1-1 & 3.0.4-1 both work fine, but 3.1 boots to black screen. Why?
Twrp 3.1.0 worked fine on my Axon 7 US version A2017U
Flashed via fastboot over stock recovery.
Will edit this thread and report back if issue is discovered.

Same for me. Is it possible to flash the images manually?

How long should it take to boot after flashing, I'm sitting at the boot screen (blue-red-yellow-green line with no animation for a while now?

Try to reboot it by long press the power button, it would be sooner if you reboot

Thanks I did that too, but couldn't get it to work, ended up installing the MiA1 port on MiUI via TWRP flahable zip which worked pretty much instantly, I will probably try again later

Hi guys. Could any of you help me out with flashing this firmware? Clicking the flash-firmware file does nothing - a command prompt window opens and closes in a second and nothing happens. Any tips on how to get it to work? Thanks!

I couldn't get the original Nougat one to install either at first. The only way to install it was what I mentioned in this thread:

The firmware file in the OP should be unzipped in the same folder as the fastboot program in your PC.
