Have you tried flashing TWRP as the recovery? (if its available yet) you should be able to do a full system wipe from there, then re-install a factory image. you will need to unlock the bootloader first so need to get a code for this from huawei's support site.

i allready installed twrp before and doone a factory reset through that and allready have an unlocked bootloader however i cant install the factory image thats the part im stuck at
edit: will i need to buy dc pheonix to force install the software as i cannot find a way to install.
You might want to try using the huawei updater tool to flash stock recovery and firmware.

So I decided to unlock the bootloader and flash TWRP, i knew that unlocking it would wipe the data but what happened to me was that after trying to reboot into the system and install SuperSU it would always return to recovery and now it says no OS detected. So now i have to flash a completely stock image and i dont have one. Can anyone help???
EDIT: Used the restore tool(cant remember who by) and it worked fine.
Official twrp does not support squashfs which the new system is in, here is an unofficial build from the twrp forum on the lg g watch

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

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.

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?

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.

Hi everybody,
I got my Swift 2 8 months ago and have finally decided to root it using TWRP. So I unlocked my bootloader and then installed TWRP using the official guide at https://twrp.me/devices/wileyfoxswift2.html. I also wiped my cache and dalvik cache.
However, now I have done this, whenever I try to boot, I receive both the amber and red warnings about corruption and then get stuck in a bootloop on the first black and white boot image.
Please can someone help me get back into android; if possible I would like root but in the end just a working phone.
Thanks.
As far as I know it's a dm-verity issue. There might be several ways to fix it but the only one I know is to flash Magisk from TWRP. I still run version 12 because 13.x won't install for me.
From my expierience, unlocking and locking bootloader will wipe your userdata , so backup! How I root mine is, first unlock through fastboot, than fastboot boot twrp, instead of flashing, flash magisk through twrp, than lock the bootloader again through fastboot. This keeps you from getting messages about corruption and has you rooted. Whenever I need twrp I just boot it instead of flashing it. I also made a backup using twrp, just to keep things safe and easy to restore...
Edit: To get out of bootloop you either do a factory reset or flash the image found in this forum using fastboot update...
You should have a look at this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/swift-2/how-to/marmite-wileyfox-ota-nougat-android-7-1-t3654999
Hi all people,
first of all, I want excuse me for not my perfect English.
I have Honor 9 from few days. And I think to have bricked it.
I have unlocked bootloader correctly.
I have flashed recovery this TWRP recovery with the intention to proceed to root with Magisk or SuperSu. I accidentally and unconsiuosly do factory reset then the phone goes bootloop. (it power off and power on continuously) with the alert "your device has been unlocked and..etc".
Yesterday, reading this thread, I flashed, from fastboot console, boot, recovery and system, the phone resets two/three times then goes to eRecovery where I do a factory reset.
After a factory reset the phone works correctly and seems successfully unbricked. So I re-flash TWRP recovery.
But this morning, during the attempt to install from TWRP one between Magisk or SuperSu (I don't succeed to do it beacuse the phone was crypted and I don't see zip files from TWRP). I have reset the phone but goes bootloop again.
I tried to re-flash boot, recovery, system and cust more (that I don't have flashed yesterday). Now the phone goes eRecovery and ask me to connect to download latest version and recovery, but don't ask me to do a factory reset.
Now I don't know what I can do.
How I can solve this situation? I want only unlock bootloader (done!), install TWRP and have root permission. Now I don't think to change rom.
Something similar happened to me. It seems like the TWRP provided has some issue..... After installing TWRP I had a bootloop problem. I have resolved installing Magisk. It seems that Magisk patchs something. If you can access TWRP try to install Magisk (put the zip file on external sd). In other words: copy magisk zip on sd card - during the bootloop you have the chance to power off phone - Power off - Power on in recovery mode. If you have TWRP correctly installed Honor should go in recovery using TWRP . Install Magisk and see what happens...

I have tried to flash TWRP recovery again to do install Magisk from sd card. I have done it but the phone doesn't work fine.
So I have put rommco05 TWRP Backup into sd card then restored it from TWRP restore (boot and vendor img). Now the phone seems have bootloader locked, in fact I don't have bootloader warning at the power on. Now in fastboot mode the phone says me that I have Phone locked and FRP unlocked.
How can I exit from this situation?
Try this

I have a question about TWRP. From TWRP's file manager I don't see the files that I put in the internal memory. It's because I have used finger print to lock the phone that encryptes files?

This is to re-brand the phone from Chinese to EU version...I don't think is my case.

Take a backup before make root. You don't see files because is some issue with decryption in TWRP. I achieved root with Magisk but I don't remember exactly steps

After I have installed Magisk (v14.0) now I have problem with google play services which don't download and do updates apps.
If I do a factory reset again I can solve it?
Update:
After I done a factory reset from TWRP recovery
and formatting data partition the phone seems working perfectly (I don't know why, but before format data the phone says me that I have only 150mb of memory space)
I say "seems" because there's something getting me in trouble, for example, I don't have anymore ringtones in the settings menu.
And I don't know if I have lost something else.
Exists a possibilty to restore all contents of the phone?
You could try this and flash your phone back to stock. But then you would need to unlock your bootloader and install TWRP again. Another way would be to unpack an image of your ROM and flash system and other parts via fastboot. Of course this could be risky and you could brick the device.

If I understand it well...
I have 2 options:
1) Rebrand the phone and flashin, then at end I have back the phone stock.
2) Unpack the image of ROM (what it means?) and flash system and other parts via fastboot. (Which are those parts? How?) But this procedure is more hazardous then rebrand procedure?
I have understand right?
1. Yes, correct. I would recommend that. Everything is explained in the thread I linked. Of course everything you do could potentially harm your phone, but you should know that already.
2. Get an update.app file for your specific phone model (there are threads already here, just search a bit, or use Firmware Finder), open it with the Huawei Update Extractor and extract the parts you want to flash (like system or recovery). Then flash them via fastboot. I tried this because I was in a situation like yours, but it didn't work for me. But in theory it could, because you would replace the faulty parts of your firmware.

Hi, I don't say it because I have replaced the phone with another same.
Now I'm starting to unlock bootloader, installing recovery TWRP and rooting the phone.
I hope to avoid bootloop this time.
Goodmorning everyone!
Yesterday I have:
- Unlocked bootloader correctly!
- Installed TWRP correctly!
- Make a TWRP Backup of all partitions of the device, except data partition because TWRP gives me an error during backup attempt.
- Then I start the device.
- After start the device I go to recovery TWRP to install Magisk, but the phone goes bootloop.
After reboot 2-3 times on the screen appears for a few moments a message of eRecovery that have restored something but I don't know. Then the device shows me the eRecovery that asks me to make a factory reset.
At this point I shutdown the device, go in TWRP to flash Magisk unistaller and the device goes out bootloop and works fine but without root.
How I can solve this problem and install Magisk and have root finally?
Some question:
-When I flashed TWRP (via fastboot) and I configurate it, example language, hours, etc... TWRP don't save the settings, in fact when I go in TWRP again I do remake the settings. Why?
-Then I go in sdcard I don't navigate files, I see folders with casual characters. This is an effect of encryption of the device?

Answers to all your concerns go here mate---> TWRP doesn't decrypt data. Done.
Hence: weird folders in there, nowhere to store its settings prefs, about Magisk it's another story, if you want root go SuperSU latest beta.
Regards.
a basically did what that guy did, got root installed via TWRP but my google apps are all busted.
I tried flashing the update_data_full_public.zip and update_full_hw_usa.zip I found using the russian device lookup link switching trick but I the HW errored when I tried to flash it in TWRP and my play store still broken.
I was new to this twrp stuff, so i wanted to change my custom rom to stock rom on my lg k20 plus (model - mp260) And I couldnt find a way online to flash it, so i tried wiping all my data via twrp and i wiped everything because I had no knowledge, after that i rebooted my system and It showed the android screen for about 30 minutes. Then, i tried to reboot into twrp via adb, drivers arent recognized, tried to reboot in phone, bootloader unlocked message is preventing me from doing that. Can someone help please???
