Honor 7A firmware lost - Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, I've got an honor 7a, AUM-L29.
This phone is rooted (magisks 19.**), this phone has TWRP, this phone was running EMUI 8 lastest patches.
I tried to restore a backup from TWRP : the system, system image and .... the firmware
The last one was a really bad idea, because the restore failed on it and my phone lost his firmware partition (error 255 execTarFork...).
My only solutions are :
- huawei repair store (at least half the price of the phone, stupid)
- an image of the stock firmware partition of the phone (from someone with the exact same phone)
Please help me.

Hello
I have the same phone, but my phone is not rooted, i cant unlock the bootloader
how to root my phone?
if my phone is rooted, i can help you!
regards

Coolpad E501 EU unbrick, reviving

Hi
I have Coolpad E501 EU (other names: Modena, Y76, Sky). It's dual sim, stock android 5.1, rooted, stock recovery.
After last mini update (9,2 MB) coolpad logo is showing and then it goes only to recovery. Phone was rooted using KingRoot app, and then applied update so I bet it was a mistake to do so.
I have second one same Coolpad phone - working, rooted, stock android, stock recovery. So it might help in restoring bricked one.
I searched almost everywhere on the internet looking for stock roms, recovery or something that I can flash.
I tried using YGDP tool with 4.4 official rom that I found but no luck. I get the message "Bootloader is old" in logs.
Tried to do backup with nandroid of working phone but it's making backup for custom recovery (cwm - .tar or twrp - .wim). My phone doesn't have one.
Recovery has an option to apply update from zip. Last update that messed up is here:
ota.coolyun.com/ota/Android/Coolpad%20E501_EU/P0/5.1.222.51.P0.151216.Y76_U00_5.1.222.61.P0.160510.Y76_U00/update_1464055522221.zip
I dont care about data., only working system.
Anyway I appreciate some help how to bite that, any ideas how to revive that phone. I was trying to do a system.img backup of /system partition in working phone, but no luck, partition is in ext4. I thought I can restore that using adb.
I will answer any questions if something I wrote is not clear. I'm not afraid of adb, flashed many phones, so I'm not looking for step by step tutorial, only to someone point me in right direction to solve this problem
Thanks for any help.

No
I found some custom roms and some software on chinese site, but cant flash them and I think it's because bootloader isn't unlocked. I tried unlocking it but no luck (using android sdk).

I have twrp for this phone, but I cant flash it. Every time I try to send a command in fastboot mode I get the message: "FAILED (remote: unknown command)". How did you flash it? Did your bootloader was unlocked in developer settings? Mine wasn't so I think I'm screwed.
Backup I have is with my personal data.

Hello ppl!
Is yours problems solved? I have soft bricked Coolpad Modena E501_EU and can't find solution.
Searching everywhere on internet, not find nothing about that phone: kernels, drivers, firmwares etc., like "ghost phone". Firmware version 4.4 is for E501-Y76-Sky but not for EU model and cannot be flashed. I need stock 5.1.222.........Y76_U00 and if can someone make backup and upload somewhere he helped me a lot.

How to downgrade a Rooted, Bootloader unlocked P9 Lite from Android 7 to Android 6?

Hello fellow xda members helpers and developers
I need to downgrade my Phone from Android 7 Build: C432B370 to Android 6
What do I need to make sure of in my Huawei P9 Lite Android 7 Emui 5 before following the Rollback/software upgrade procedure described in the respective Zip files.
Do I need to unroot and relock ? .. If yes which version of recovery or TWRP do I need.. if I am going to rollback.
I am a little hesitant at the moment becouse I managed to get into a bootloop yesterday by just flashing recovery_stock .
I am guessing it is becouse I unawarely flashed the wrong recovery_stock(?)
Recovery/Fastboot mode were not availiable - and then tried to flash the rollback via 3 button method.. which of course did not work.
( In case you are wondering how I managed to fix this: I let the battery drain to 0% - this broke the loop - afte the fifth try I managed to reset it with volume up + power all the way through booting)
So now I am back to square one..
Thank you
ok so I managed to fix this by myself: The problem I had was, I had a corrupted/wrong recovery on my Android 7.
So what I did was, I checked which build I excactly had .. in my case C432B370 ... downloaded the full rom. Extracted the stock recovery.img with "HuaweiUpdateExtractor" and flashed it.
Then I did the normal rollback procedure with both update.app files.
Had to unlock and root it once more... ( this time with the correct twrp) and voila it works.
So what do we learn?: dont trust simple internet guides if they not offer informations on file versions they offer ... they may not use the correct versions for your phone.
thrad can be closed or deleted
thanks for looking

My Huawei Mate SE is bricked after installing zip in TWRP

I just bought a Huawei Mate SE which is a newer phone that looks like the Honor 7x. I've noticed whenever I search for Huawei Mate Se custom roms, recoveries, and even stock roms I only find Mate 9 stuff and find my self desperate with no support of root, and anything else. I found an article called "How to : Huawei Mate SE Root & TWRP Recovery" , and I successfully unlocked the bootloader, and I successfully installed twrp. The text on the bottom I didn't see which said to install the dm-verity thing. I ran into the problem where there were all these folders were displaying weird text in the main partitions, so instead of installing the version they told me, which was the no-verity-opt-encrypt-4.1.zip, I installed the latest which was the no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip version, which soft bricked. So I thought I could fix this by installing a custom ROM. But there were none, so I tried to install cm13 honor 7x rom and It didn't work. I tried installing the correct version after the rom. So even now if I tried to revert the old boot img it still wouldn't work because of the rom. However, since my bootloader is unlocked there is definitely a way I can fix all this. But the problem is their is not any Huawei Mate SE roms anywhere. I need a stock rom for my phone (possisbly a custom rom), or some fix. I can access my recovery, and the bootloader, but not anything else. My model is the BND-L34, pls help.
I did the same thing. Got it working
Put this in twrp back up folder on external SD card. Restored both files then factory reset in twrp. It worked for me every thing works. unzipped with Windows pc
Can't post links. Post [EMUI 5.1] OTA Firmwares and Unbrick Phone method. In Huawei 7x thread post#139 by AlexxC might be easter to search his posts. I have mate se in us on tmo/MetroPCS I flashed the correct 4.1 and still got soft brick. That article cost me couple hours. rooted with honor 7x method. Guess it really is the same phone with extra gig of ram. To AlexxC thanks, you the man

I tried the manual method of unbricking with multi touch and the phone booted, but it is a black screen, and I only see the home, back and tabs buttons. So after i figured out to use the backup that you sent me and it still wouldn't boot.
Are you getting errors in twrp restore you have to mount the partitions that your restoring boot system data etc

Mate 10 ALP-L29 bricked

Hi everybody,
I was on rooted and rebranded ALP-L29C432B148 (before rebranding it was L29C636 as far as I remember) and wanted to go back to Stock. I flashed the ALP-L09C432B149 firmwarefrom this thread
https://www.android-hilfe.de/forum/...nstall-stock-rom-mate10-mate10pro.882911.html
and then after sucessful flashing the buld-nr. showed ""System 8.0.0.046 (0FTC)". To get the correct buoild-nr and to be able to receive ota updates I wanted to rebrand again and install the ALP-L09C432B148 from this thread
https://www.android-hilfe.de/forum/...jeder-version-zum-alp-l09-l29c432.882774.html
again to use the rebrand mod again. This wasn't successful as the firmware install failed. After that I couldn't install any firmware (neither B149 nor B148). If I install twrp-alp-firedance it shows only the twrp startscreen, but I can't access twrp.
Further more I'm not able any more to push any files to the phone, it fails with "adc couldn't create file..Is a directory" Flashing files via adb works.
What can I do now to get back a working system with stock rom?
Thank you very much in advance for your help!
