Stuck in recovery, KIW-L22, bought from Malaysia. - Honor 5X Questions & Answers

Here's the deal,
1. I was on resurrection remix 7.1 custom rom with TWSRP recovery installed.
2. Wanted to go back to stock huawei honor 5x OS so I downloaded it on the internet, since I live in Malaysia, I searched for "Huawei Honor 5x Stock Rom Malaysia Variant"
3. Flash the rom, got EMUI 2.0 instead of the written EMUI 3.1 on the file (the file name is KIW-L22_C636B130_Firmware_Android 5.1_EMUI 3.1_Malaysia.zip"
4. Flashed HONOR_5X_Firmware_KIW-L22_Android 6.0.1_EMUI 4.0.1_C675B360CUSTC675D002.zip that I got from huawei's website
5. Stuck in bootloop.
6. I went into TWRP recovery and tried to do something but I couldn't use the touchscreen for some odd reason
7. Went and browsed XDA for around 2 hours and found that I can install another recovery that uses the volume buttons and the power buttons to navigate, thus I installed a recovery called "carliwm touch recovery"
8. Was happy could finally do something, successfully flashed the recovery. Went and downloaded Lineage OS rom based on my mistakes that I've done and never want to go back to stock rom.
9. The recovery has an option to mount the external sd card (my sd card in my phone, dont know why it's called as such), so I did, I still couldn't navigate using the touchscreen as it's disfunctional still but can still navigate using volume and power buttons.
10. Wiped all data, flashed Lineage OS, flashed GAPPS.
11. Stuck in recovery for some reason, can't get into my phone. I've re-flashed it many times
For those who want to know my phone model, it's KIW-L22. When it had stock rom it was EMUI 4 something, can't remember as it's very vague. I think it was marshmallow
Please help
EDIT:
I use Huawei Update Extractor to get into the stock rom that had EMUI 2.0, extracted the System and Recovery images
Used this video ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EoZQHTidnGA&t=629s ) to flash back to stock rom that had EMUI 2.0
The only way to get out of the recovery is to reboot the phone
In the bootloader, it says "PHONE Unlocked" and "FRP Unlock"
UPDATE:
I've tried to follow the video again and re-flashed the stock rom with EMUI 2.0 and it still doesn't work
I've wiped everything in the phone using the recovery (wiped data and factory reset), going to sleep as it's 4:37 AM

This is what happens when you dont read the guides that are posted all over this forum, we have seen it so many times I have lost count and also the inclination to help sort out the mess, I would never ever in my life download any firmware that wasn't posted on XDA or flash a phone without reading guides on here first as they usually not only give the correct information but usually point to the correct firmware.

Your touchscreen isn't working and your getting a bootloop because you probably have the wrong boot.image this is clealy the case as your touch screen isn't working, if you search through my guides for al10 which i cant be bothered to get the link for now one of them has a link to a twrp image of what i rhink is l22, anyway its a twrp image, you can flash that using twrp and it should restore your phone, good luck

This is for the AL10 but should be of use to you, download the twrp image, you will need to make a backup first of your phone then follow the instructions, you cant restore using a update.app as you have wrecked the system image and ruined the version check so this is your best hope to reatore tour phone and install lineage, good luck

Then you will need to use adb to flash the boot partition, you have a major job on your hands which will be especially difficult for a noob, this is why its best to read the guides !

This will be my last instructions then the rest is down to you..
Download minimal adb and unzip it
Download Huawei extractor tool
Download stock update.apo for any honor 5x
Use huawei extractor and open update.app with it
Extract boot.img
Place e boot.img in minimal adb folder
Download hiapp from web
Install hiapp
Plug phone into computer in adb mode
Open adb command window
Type adb devices to check its there
Type fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then install twrp
Fastboot flash recovery twrp.img "or whatever file name it is"
No fastboot reboot recovery
Now install lineage
Now hit the thanks button and write a guide on why guides are important

Probably not working because boot.img is messed up, you cant have flashed it right, you only option is to try flashing each partition with the extracted files and hope it works and if it doesnt return it to a service center, im out of ideas im afraid, i flashed my boot.img before and it worked when i had no touch screen, didnt you make a backup before you messed with the phone ? Could end up being a expensive mistake, maybe try other boot.img or ask someone on here with a l24 for a copy of their boot.img but without that your screwed as it cant load the touchscreen drivers.

Unable to boot EVO 4G LTE

When I tryed to flash MeanICS on my evo all appeared to go well until I rebooted. After rebooting I only got a black screen. I can still boot into bootloader which gives me hope. I tryed reflashing Mean and a couple of other ROMs but the problem persists. I was hoping someone may have had a simular problem and had a fix or workaround that I could try.
Thx
Check my guide I listed this exact issue in troubleshooting, if you have any questions after feel free to ask
Thank you for your help. I now understand the problem (bootloop, caused probably by the kernel) but even a full wipe using twrp I can't get any ROMs to load, and I was not thinking and didn't make a back up.
Download a ROM and verify the check sum then unzip and place the boot.img in your adb tools (or SDK depending on what you use) boot to boot loader and select fastboot (from PC terminal, sorry) type fastboot flash boot boot.img and then in recovery try to flash the ROM zip. Be sure to wipe dalvik, cache, factory reset and system first to avoid issues
---------- Post added at 05:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:22 PM ----------
I just noticed you said black screen, that most definitely is a kernel issue but its a ROM base mismatch, you just needed to fast boot the mean kernel most likely
I had this problem literally yesterday. All you need to do is flash the boot.img located in the unzipped folder of meanrom and then flash via fast boots via pc or mac. Wipe everything first and then flash the BOOT.IMG. THEN FLASH MEAN ROM and wipe cache etc.
Sent from my EVO on CM10
Yeah I read too quickly and missed the part about the black screen. I decided it was better to outline the whole process
ok i downloaded a new rom, verified md5sum, and unzipped the rom. i also downloaded eclipse and am linking eclipse and android sdk to try and make this a little easier, i hope. i feel like such a total noob, well for the most part i am.... i guess what i am saying is that i don;t know if i am removing boot.img from zip or if i'm just checking something on the boot.img using adb
You just need adb tools, you are making this a little harder then it needs to be

Battery is low showing in bootloader
I am not able to charge it even with 2amp charger
Nothing is happening ! Can't run fastboot commands until battery low is showing
Turn off the phone and try to charge and try again.
hi there ,i fixed it
as there was 2 issues with my moto e
1.it won't start due to corrupted rom
2.i was not able to flash it via fastboot as battery was low (actually 0%)
so my prime concern was to flash stock rom first.
to remove battery low in bootloader you have to just remove
back cover ,unplug the battery from motherboard (or you can use motorola factory cable but first one is recommended).
after disconnecting the plug connect the phone directly with charger then go to bootloader.
voila now it will show battery is ok so i was able to flash files.
then plug the battery while charger should be connected to power supply.
leave the phone for while now it should charge.
but you should do this only if you can go to bootloader or try motorola factory cable
Good to here you fixed your phone.
Hi there,
i jump on this topic to say that i have exactly the same problem.
I downloaded the stock rom XT1022_CONDOR_RETAILDSDS_5.1_LPC23.13-34.8_cid7_CFC.xml.zip.
In first i used the command line like in this Guide ---> stucked in the blue logo
Then i used the .bat for lollipop from this topic ---> still the same
But i could read that each steps from the command lines were marked OKAY.
I don't know what i have to do now...
Please help
Finally it's good with the .bat, it was just very very very long

Ok Thanks. I am in and generating a backup. The touch screen was working for me mostly. It won't let me select Micro SDCard to save my backup.
Yeah like I said it need some repair I am pretty sure the mount points aren't perfect and I didn't compile it I had to use an otg and mouse to navigate

What I did to navigate was I had to push the power button then it would bring the screen up where you can swipe the bottom to unlock the screen and use touchscreen. Navigating the storage was odd because it shows it is stuck on Internal storage, but If i click on SDCard, it will take me to that directory. I hope there is a nice update to this is the near future, so we don't have to access it through "adb reboot recovery"
You can flash it if you like I just don't trust this copy yet waiting for an update before I flash it
You can use" fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" to flash rather than "fastboot boot twrp.img " to boot it

Oh man you were so right. I had it flashed and it caused me all kinds of problems, like booting the screen upside down etc. I was finally able to find the recovery.img in another thread and get back the stock recovery. I think I will also wait until there is a more stable TWRP version.
I always use boot to test and I always backup my recovery before flashing because I had that happen to me before

Just visit this page and you will get TWRP for Z016D. It's a Taiwan website with Chinese but you can see the blue link marked as "TWRP" and there you are.

Thanks for this. Posting the Mega so people don't have to make an Asus account to grab it.

The 20170218 recovery works perfectly with my phone (6/64gb, 820). The first one posted in the OP worked, but was a bit glitchy. The updated one has working SD reading and touchscreen works without having to lock it first.
Could someone please tell me why twrp is booting upside down on my device, and how do I fix it? I just tried to run it in fastboot boot twrp-3.0.3-0-Z016D-20170218.img and once again it loads upside down, however the touch screen is where it normally is suppose to be, which makes it very difficult to navigate the menus. It is very frustrating. This has happened to me multiple times this week. I can't seem to get it to boot/load properly.

Are you using the Snapdragon 821 version by any chance? Cause people with the s820 seem to be working fine.

I really don't want to wipe everything and start all over from scratch because everything else is working great right now. I guess if there is no easy solution, then I will just leave it alone. I ran it with fastboot and then made a backup and saved it on my microSD card. But I am worried if I wipe everything and start all over again, then I will have to call my bank again to verify my cards for Android pay. I am running the stock firmware version 1698, with stock recovery, an unlocked bootloader, & rooted. Also have Magisk & Titanium Pro installed, and I verified that Andoid pay works for me. (I already bought something using Android pay).

How did you install Magisk having stock recovery? Using the in-app installation?

I flashed Magisk v11.1 with TWRP, then installed Magisk Manager from the Google Play Store, after I rebooted my device. I did that by booting in to TWRP with fastboot to flash the .zip file. I did not flash TWRP to install Magisk.

Why I don't get WiFi on any ROM I flash? is it a ROM issue or a recovery issue?

i recently followed this thread to unlock the bootloader and install a custom recovery everything went okay but whenever i install any ROM i don't get WiFi even the ones that says "stock".
my recovery is Carliv MTK CWM-Based v6.0.4.4
I didn't take a backup from my old ROM because it was corrupted and i thought that a ROM that says "stock" on xda will be the same.
Please Please help, my tablet is useless without WiFi

i think your reply is missing something
That is most likely a kernel issue. The missing Mac says that the efs got corrupted. This is a known issue when messing with mtk devices and part of the reason they are nor advised to mess with.
You could try doing full a complete stock install and relocate the bootloader. (some devices have safety protocols that break things when unlocking the bootloader)
Your best bet is to pull a log of trying to turn it on and that will tell you what you need to know. Should have been the first thing you did really.

Split screen after unbrick

Hi guys,
So, I have this problem, after unbrick the phone it turn on whith the split screen. I use this method to unbrick: https://www.gizmochina.com/2016/11/20/leeco-x820-max-2-super-unbrick-guide/ and now the phon it´s like in the photo. I tried all the ways: installing a new twrp, only works the Cuoco92´s twrps but instead i can not flash any rom, it turn on in black screen. Also i tried to d flash with the adb sideload , whitout results. In twrp the screen is also splited.
Many people have this issue after unbrick, no solution.

It seems to be an issue with stock recovery and bootloader, their are not compatible. Why I´m telling you that? Because the digitalizator it is functional, the screenshots are entire and they are many people who can restore complet the phone, but they are offline , like STEVE_MARS and many other.
It could be the QFIL file you used , please try this one and tell us --> here

have you look here ?
Are you sure you followed the OP carefully? There is a TWRP that is designated for using with the 014s ROM. Please use that one. I think the issue you have is with the drivers. Some users had installed another TWRP and they fixed it. Before 016s it was another kernel, therefore a different TWRP should be used. Also please mention when the screen became split, after finishing with QFIL, or after installing TWRP.

Try 3.0.2-0 and 3.0.2-1. Unfortunately the post that I was referring to had a TWRP for 014s that worked for me and many others, but now the download link is dead. In that case, I can suggest the above versions. They look pretty old, enough to work with 014s. Try them and report back. By the way, you can find them in the unbrick guide, I posted the links there.
This it is the new stade of may phone. I have a custo twrp, 3.0.2 Cuoco92 and when I try to instal a new rom this happens:

40-45 seconds later, this happens, I let it almost 40 minutes and... nothing:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-KeuL8s5Hc
Really, I can´t find any solution, it´out af my understanding...
It was solved without replacing the screen!
Ok so, I did as shown in the topic : https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-...tboot-t3525831
download twrp (The one I know didn't had the touchscreen issue)
boot from twrp (wish I had know about it before!) and not from one installed
upload zip file to /sdcard ( here's the catch, while in TWRP in don't have access to adb, the phone doesn't connect to pc or I don't know even I mount it, could be me. So i just put the archive at the root of the phone before booting to twrp from adb)
install rom
reboot
And ... it's ****ING WORKING!*​​​​​​​
Really big thanks to ThE_MarD for his help!

Did same steps bro, didn´t work . I only can install roms with 5.6 kernel, but still split screen. If is not a HW problem , I think is a kernel compatibility with display drivers and motherboard. I think the phone has a display named "trully" , manufactured after 5.6 kernel, so there is the problem. It.´s only my opinion.
