[SOLVED]
So, I'll begin .
I got the phone recently ..
and I installed Xposed framework and done some customizations like launchers and stuff ..
colored status bars and indicators and I wanted to add the card stack recent from the lollipop .
so, I followed a guide by some xda user called Ihan and I had to decompile some system files and stuff like that .. then I found out that my ROM is odexed and I wanted to deodex it .. I used an app called 3c Tool Box .. then when I started deodexing the system and framework it failed somehow and it said it wanted to rebuild a file called classes.dex and I turned this option on ! .. afterwards the phone went to the boot logo it started booting for ages and then I removed battery restarted and then I don't work anymore .. I forgot to mention that I also installed TWRP recovery ! .. and can't flash original stock ROM ( for Huawei it's a update.app package ) I followed some guides online saying to extract that package and getting the recovery.img from it .. I fail most of the time .. last guide was to use a program called activeperl and it should do it .. to extract the update.app ... but it just stays blank and don't do anything .. I re-downloaded the update.app again and again and I failed again ..
now I need some help if someone can give a link to a rom that should work .. or unpack the update.app for me and send me recovery.img ( and if you may system.img too ) or
someone with the same device can extract the recovery for me .. I'll be very very thankful It's been two hard days I can't use my phone but I don't mind solutions with formatting my device cause most of the data are on my SD Card .. but please help me :crying:
It's solved now ! i managed to find after 2 days of searching online it was a pain! .. found a kind of developer stock rom files .. which included the update.app + stuff ( recovery.img , boot.img , system.img separated ) and stuff like that .. i flash the recovery.img via fastboot and the stock recovery was back ! then i got my SD card to SD card adaptor .. prepared the dload file to flash the stock update.app and it was all done! .. but after i tried to fix for MILLIONS of times i wiped the data partition xD and lost all my data .. it's Super Rare to find this Huawei Stock Rom and u can easily f*** up if u lost a backup and need the stock files .. unlike samsung with odin or u can just use 7zip or winrar and extract it's files .. but i'm gonna put the link since it's rare and if someone with similar device ran into the same situation can use the link : http://fs1.d-h.st/download/00173/5M...anmar.India.Nepal.Channel.Others.05021TDT.zip

That's why it's called FASTboot (pun intended for all XDA people to laugh).

Any help for my Nova plus ( MLA-L03) bricked,
Im with a bricked unit (nova plus MLA-L03) . i cant find on all web page firmware Any help for restore my phone pls .
I will detail here what happened to my own bricked Nova plus (MLA-L03) and how I got it working again, with the help of a lot of comments from this forum. First you should know that when asking such questions it is advisable to detail your problem and what led to it, so that others are willing to help without having to ask for additional details.
I got soft-bricked after installing twrp and formatting the /data partition (wrongly thinking it was only userdata and that nothing could go wrong) so I could then backup the partition for future use. Basically what unbricked was flashing these 3 partitions from a full firmware release: /recovery, /boot and /system and I believe this is the only thing required, so you may try that first. I am not an expert and I would also like to know if the other steps may have contributed to the unbricking.
-Through TWRP I restored the stock recovery and the /data files from Bluesmoothie's backup (look in the TWRP folder, also you might have to create a backup yourself to generate the correct file structure), but that didn't unbrick
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70197735&postcount=99
-Then I found files for my device (MLA-L03) from the Huawei Firmware finder available here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/tools/general/huawei-firmware-finder-team-mt-t3469146
-You can also find the firmware from this site but it is a hassle to search through everything:
http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php
-I downloaded the firmware called MLA-L03C6540B300CUSTC654D001 (the update.app file inside the .zip is actually 3.8GB and my understanding is it is a full OS, not merely an update)
IMPORTANT: using this firmware will install android 7 nougat and you may not be able to go back to android 6. Also as of this date you will not be able to use TWRP to backup you data partition and others, and I think that you cannot modify the system partition also (not sure, I would love to be wrong)
-(Not sure if it is worth mentioning but I tried to unzip the update.zip and put it in my sd card in a folder called /dload and boot by pressing all 3 buttons (boot to stock recovery) but the update got stuck, wouldn't go over 36%... I had also previously tried this with other zip packages for my device but none of them got over 12% or 30%)
-Then I used the Huawei Update Extractor (link right below to extract recovery.img, boot.img , and system.img from the update.app file extracted from update.zip.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454
-Finally I flashed these 3 files with fastboot :
fastboot flash recovery "[filepath to recovery.img]" ( example: fastboot flash recovery "C:/my documents/recovery.img" )
fastboot flash boot "[filepath to boot.img]"
fastboot flash system "[filepath to system.img]"
-After I also did a factory reset, but I don't remember if I let the system boot completely before (I don't know either if it makes a difference... I hope someone here can answer)
Good luck!
Hi friends. I have the device MLA-AL10. i Want to change the region. Could you share your oeminfo file?

don't even try to change oeminfo, it will brick your phone network security
changing region on qualcomm devices is not easy, its complicated thing and involved paid tools
its better to see a professional to do this :good:
Hi guys. M currently usimg Nephilim Rom V2. I was trying to flash b594 stock rom. Whenever i tried to install it with stock recovery it just says no update.app is found. Even though i extracted the update.zip file and put it in internal storage in dload folder. I cant even flash it through fastboot because it gives error even though i extracted the img files through Huawei extractor. Can anyone help!!!!
What kind of error fastboot method gives you? I always have went back to stock rom by flashing a rom in fastboot and never had problems with it
While flashing system.img i got error cant load system.img. even though it's in the same folder as adb is. There was also an error whule flashing recovery extracted from update.zip. i was flashing the recovery.img only and it says errot:too many links.
Try to re-download your adb and its related files

Done that to same result...
So you want your original firmware correct ? If so , go here: http://consumer.huawei.com/nl-en/support/downloads/detail/index.htm?id=82749
Change region (if needed) find your phone and download that.
Once you downloaded it:
1. put it on your sd card
1.1 Since when you download the file, its gonna be in .zip or .rar format, you are gonna need to extract that and what you get out of that file (its gonna be a folder called dload) put that whole thing "dload" on to your sdcard. ( put in in a main folder of your sd card its called root folder, its where your main folders are like pictures, DCIM etc.)
2. turn off your phone leave it for a sec
3. then hold all 3 buttons ( power ,volume up , volume down) and it should start installing the thing.
Hope this helps.

Are you able to install stock recovery through adb? If you are, you can easily use Huawei's recovery to flash the stock firmware

Ahh, sorry, I meant to say that you could try after flashing stock recovery to use EMUI updater to start the flashing.. anyway good that you got it to work
hello everyone so here is my problem, i followed a guide to root my phone , it all went good but after the phone restarted i founded some issues like bluetooth not working , and settings crash when i try to open devloper options.
I contacted the one who did the guide and then he told me :"here is firmware file, ( he sent me the link )
extract it , you will get update.app ,then find huawei firmware extractor in google, and use it to extract boot.img from update.app
copy boot.img to sd card, in revolution recovery press install, select boot.img and replace with current boot partition
You will be responsible for all this act."
I asked him if my phone will work after i do what he told and then he added :"as per my knowledge this may solve your problem, but there's nothing guaranteed, best thing will be flashing stock B380, which i don't have".
So my question is , is it safe to follow his instructions ? i just want my phone like it was before :crying:
my phone build number : VNS-L31C185B380
Thank you,
theme app is installed?
What is theme app ? Sorry im à newbie.
Only solution is to downgrade to marshmallow and after that perform the upgrades again. Only catch is that it will also perform a factory reset.
From the first time i was not able to upgrade my phone to another new version of Android.
The phone was bought on chinese store with Android version : WW V10.40.47.107 (Android MM)
When i checked availability of new versions, phone showed me no result available.
Then following instructions i unlocked bootloader and then install TWRP as recovery system.
I tried to install updates of ROM downloaded from Asus website using this methods with this results :
installing by TWRP with ROM transfered to internal memory of phone KO
installing by "ADB sideload" command KO
I partially resolved after many attempts updating only to Version V11.41.87.2 (Android MM)
I solved in this way :
i used TWRP installing from file transfered directly in microSD
i extracted from zipped file "updater-script" file that is possible to find in the following folder path :
META-INF > com > google > android
and then deleted this rows :
(!less_than_int(1494697617, getprop("ro.build.date.utc"))) || abort("Can't install this package (2017年 05月 14日 星期日 01:46:57 CST) over newer build (" + getprop("ro.build.date") + ").");
.....
getprop("ro.build.asus.sku") == "WW" || abort("Please use the right SKU for updating...");
.....
and then save file extracted and compress into zip file.
During TWRP install process i got some error updates, it seems connected to System folder/partition update
but at the end i was able to update Android to my phone
I tried to do the same method with an other update Version V20.32.67.25 i got a corrupted System folder/partition
It seems essential to update this phone to use original recovery system. Can anyone give it to me?
Or is there someone who has been able to install updates using TWRP without any error ?
Also after installation I wiped the Boot, System, Data, Cache partitions and then I restored from Nandroid backup done by TWRP.
But the phone did not start at the reboot.
I then had to reinstall the update with the method described above to get the working phone back
Why did Nandroid backup with TWRP not correctly restore the phone?
Many thanks to anyone can help me

There is a link to a rom in this post. In that zip you will find recovery.img. Flash it with adb, like you flashed twrp.
Then you can flash the last M official rom, and subsequently the first and last N roms.
That's the way I did it. I had to end up wiping data, to make it work correctly.
I'm also looking for a Nougat recovery.img.
I wouldn't like to go thru all the process again if there is another update.
Good luck.

i think you need flash full firmware bro ,
1. Download newer version firmware
2. You need Convert system.New.DAT to system.img
3. Move system.img and boot.img to minimal adb & fastboot folder
4. Open minimal adb & fastboot
5. Flash boot.img and system.img

Just to let you know I did this then downloaded each update from Asus website. You have to do it in order ie newest MM to oldest N to newest N. Takes a lot of time but it works. I now have N on my phone.
Thanks everyone for all your help.

After 11 hours trying out finally solved!!!
I originally just wanted to do a factory reset, and swiped then not only data/cache, but unfortunally - because of lack of expirience - also system partition. After that all the problems occured like described above and partitionally in https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-3/help/unbricking-zenfone-3-ze552kl-dm-verity-t3563970 (there was no OS anymore, twrp warned me this every time I wanted to power off, but I couldn't install the firmware again through fastboot neither through twrp -> install zip; have got error 7 or 6).

I have finally founded a solution!!! This is in FIRSTLY restoring original recovery and just then flashing the stock ROM. Here the steps to do for it:
a.) Download original stock rom (raw-version!) from https://cloud.mail.ru/public/HuMJ/wEybSNsQA (raw is to flash through AFT - asus flash tool) or from any other source you can find online; official name seems to be "WW-ZE553KL-20.31.49.2-MR2-user-20170620235128-release_raw.zip"
b.) Exctract and move recovery.img to your adb-folder on PC
c.) Boot your phone into fastboot/boot mode, connect to PC through USB-Cable
d.) Run cmd in adb folder, then type in the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
e.) Reboot and choose recovery mode - now you have no twrp anymore, but the original recovery menue
f.) Install update, which means, original stock from your sd-card.
Be happy!
It would be nice if you could give me feedback, whether my solution was helpful for you, because it took time to write it and hope it will usefull

Boss,
This solutions can work with ASUS ZENFONE 3 ZOOM.........???
I have ZenFone 3 zoom. Already I successfully convert CN to WW Rom by following this introduction ... https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-3-zoom/how-to/transfer-cn-rom-to-ww-rom-ze553kl-t3612990
But, I can't update android nougat any way. I convert system.new.dat to system.img...... And try to flash it but unfortunately that's not working......
Please help me .......:crying:
Yes, I did it with my Zenfone 3 Zoom (ze553kl). So, you have firstly to flash the original recovery - to find, as described, in the raw stock rom zip archive. Or, you can find all original recovery's also here: (not tested by myself) https://mega.nz/#F!p90wgAaY!l1JbJilmAUEKTKWu43pT9w
Copy recovery.img to adb-folder, then flash it in fastboot mode in the cmd with "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img". Also copy the original stock rom with Android N to your sd-card and put it into your phone.
Then reboot your phone into recovery - now you have no twrp anymore, but original recovery. Install now the zip with Android-N-stock-firmware from sd-card. Enjoy!

Boss ,
Thank you very much ...... Your solution absolutely excellent and work very well . I am very happy for your support . But unfortunately I found new problem on my phone ...... After update nougat a white line found on the display......
How can I solved it .......
Waiting for solution.......
Thanks again for your support ........
Glad to hear, that it worked for you as well. About white line I have no idea, but on other pages I have already seen somewhere, that other users also reported about this problem. Try to look at google "ze553kl update white line". You can also search a solution for ze552kl instead of ze553kl, because, as far as I know, the ze552kl (ZenFone 3, without "Zoom") is almost the same device, just with a little worse cam. Therefore, it seems to be longer on the market and to have more users, so there are also more solutions for problems which can occure to this device in the internet. Wish you a good luck!

https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=810939&st=240#entry63616813
I have finally founded a solution!!! This is in FIRSTLY restoring original recovery and just then flashing the stock ROM. Here the steps to do for it:
a.) Download original stock rom (raw-version!) from https://cloud.mail.ru/public/HuMJ/wEybSNsQA (raw is to flash through AFT - asus flash tool) or from any other source you can find online; official name seems to be "WW-ZE553KL-20.31.49.2-MR2-user-20170620235128-release_raw.zip"
b.) Exctract and move recovery.img to your adb-folder on PC
c.) Boot your phone into fastboot/boot mode, connect to PC through USB-Cable
d.) Run cmd in adb folder, then type in the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
e.) Reboot and choose recovery mode - now you have no twrp anymore, but the original recovery menue
f.) Install update, which means, original stock from your sd-card.
Be happy!
It would be nice if you could give me feedback, whether my solution was helpful for you, because it took time to write it and hope it will usefull

Very helpful, thanks!
I must've messed something up when I flashed TWRP.
TWRP ran fine, but when I tried to start it up, it stayed stuck at the Android logo.
Then errors popped up when I tried to install the stock rom through TWRP.
I never would've thought or had the guts to restore stock recovery first.
This should get its own thread.
Edit: I think my mistake was unchecking "Mount system partition read-only."

i think you need flash full firmware bro ,
1. Download newer version firmware
2. You need Convert system.New.DAT to system.img
3. Move system.img and boot.img to minimal adb & fastboot folder
4. Open minimal adb & fastboot
5. Flash boot.img and system.img

After many days i finally found enough time to try to use your tips.
I tried to convert system.New.DAT to system.img but without success using this program Autotool 3.0
http://www.droidviews.com/convert-and-extract-system-img-and-system-new-dat-files-on-windows/
After this attempt i used a ROM provided by chinese store to flash its content :
system.img
boot.img
recovery.img
Original recovery.img is essential to install other updates.
After that i tried to install other updates recognized directly starting by phone but always without success.
So i have had to install updates using original recovery tool.
Now i got Android 7.1.1 last version installed on my phone but it's impossible to use
TWRP recovery tool.
Obviously it's possible to install TWRP instead of original recovery tool and also possible to make a nandroid backup
but it's impossible to use it to install original ROMs released from Asus and it's not possible
to use to restore nandroid backups.
Is it eventually possible to use a custom ROM ? If it's, which one and possibly compatible with TWRP ?
i solved issue of update, but TWRP ?

After many days I finally found enough time to try to update my Asus Zenfone 3 Zoom to Android Nougat.
To solve the issue, I used an original Rom from the Chinese store because it contains useful files for purpose without any conversion:
boot.img
system.img
recovery.img
I flashed all 3 IMG files.
Recovery.img that it's necessary to get original recovery without which any update can be done.
You must use a microSD and the original recovery tool to be able to upgrade your system.
The problem is that it does not seem possible to use TWRP. It is possible to install it in place of the original recovery and you can do also a nandroid backup but in practice you can not use it to install any updates and restore any nandroid backups.
Is there a custom rom that you can use instead of the original one?

this is too not resut
Hello and thank you very much for this useful download link
During the rooting method, my phone (nova 2 plus) became soft brick!
I tried to solve it!
I've done following steps but they didn't work (with your full rom - was linked):
1.
1.1. extract .zip file with winrar
1.2. extract update.app file using HuaweiUpdateExtractor
1.3. Put all extracted file to sd-card
1.4. power+volume up + volume down to update it but after 5 percent, appears "update fail"
2.
2.1. extract .zip file with winrar
2.2. extract update.app file using HuaweiUpdateExtractor
2.3. Flash the rom via fastboot (it completed successfully without any errors but phone reboot loop till huawei logo)
Now my questions:
1. The extracted file doesn't have "cust.img" is it OK or it should have it?
2. What can I do to solve my problem? (I've access fastboot and custom recovery)
Thanks for your patience and your answering.
