Actually I tried to root, and I got myself into serious trouble, I tried with flashing Su.zip from TWRP, by now I can't see my internal storage, except 4 GB only, while the rest I can't see in phone explorer nor by Hisuite not even from MTP from TWRP
any suggestion to my problem.?
Concerning the ROM I guess It is quite good with so much advancement over Lollipop or EMUI 3, but due to an error I put myself into also, as I flashed first the B503 with the wrong file (unzipped the update.zip and used only the update.app in the dload folder) so run into a bootloop and a lot of attempts till I was able to flash the boot.img, recovery.img, system.img, usedata.img, cust.img, cache.img of this builf B510 and finally was able to boot into andorid but without wifi and bluetooth, i cann't turn it on even, and now after the root I lost my internal storage from 32 to only 4 GB......I'm in hell man

Help Please
Try the unroot, enable USB debugging, open SuperSU/settings and make full unroot, reboot. For EMUI 4.0 SusperSU standard does not work well, you need to use specific SuperSU for partitions of EMII 4.0. Try SuperSU V2.67 in moltitool. To find in moltitool / File / SU

First I'd like to thank you for your prompt response
actually i used the su 2.67 then I used the latest stable from chainfire v 2.65, and now I returned to flash the su v 2.67...and now as per your advice I'll uninstall all the super user and see what happens?
Yes, try uninstalling SuperSU, making full unroot and reboot

done but unfortunately the internal storage is the same as 4 GB,
On xda there is a backup of B510 for your device?
PureNexus H791 using Tapatalk
I made a backup from the TWRP before the root and after the problem I restored it but it didin't help in regaining the missing internal storage, I shall search for the backup you mentioned in XDA and shall I restore it with TWRP too?
Where you made the backup? In the internal memory or SD?
PureNexus H791 using Tapatalk
in the internal memory
You must copy the backup in sd /TWRP/Backups, after go to into TWRP, do a factory reset, advanced wipe, wipe dalvik cache, system, cache, data, cust, internal storage. Restore backup.
Before doind this, In twrp backup select storage: Micro SDcard
Check in the SD if is present the folder: TWRP/Backups
PureNexus H791 using Tapatalk
sorry but I'm little bit confused, what do you mean by sd, the internal sd card, or the external sd card, knowing that the only internal memory shown now for me to choose, names internal storage from the ROM interface

I just make a new backup (a new backup after the problem of loosing my internal storage) and made a full wipe as you said, and restored the old backup (the backup before the root), and still my internal storage is 4GB only instead of the original 32GB
Please let me give you my full story:
- I was on the Russian ROM PE-TL10C900B334, and it was so good, and I tried to update to PE-TL10C900B503, but unfourtionaltly I made it wrong by unzipping the update.zip and took only the update.app and put it in the dload and made a local update, and the phone enetered in a boot loop.
- I tried to flash by SD and 3 fingers method all the known ROMs with no use
-Then I managed to unlock my bootloader and was able to flash boot, system, recovery, cust, usedata, cache img files from the C185B510, and finally the phone booted, also without the 3 finger method, but i found the wifi and bluetooth can't be turned on and the mac address shows zeros 02:00:00:00:00
- I flashed the new 2.8.7.0 TWRP recovery by Multitool and tried SU v 2.67 and then the stable v 2.65, then and TWRP offered to install the SU again and I aggreed, and after that I tried again the SU v 2.67 you told me about and then the full unroot and the full wipe and the restore, but I'm still stuck with only 4 GB internal storage and without wifi nor bluetooth.
- A note might be helpful, in the backup folder of TWRP it named my system to be PE-TL10C900B510, while the ROM is Different it was originally PE-TL10C185B510, is this change from 185 to 900 make any sense in my complicated problem
thank you for your time and effort my friend

Hello,
i need help. I messed up my phone while trying to repair my only read mode system partition after boot.
Current state:
Phone CAN-L11 with EU Firmeware and working TWRP Recovery.
I did a full wipe, but have no data partition to restore, because this couldn´t be saved with twrp while i made my first nand backups during no read access to data partition.
My phone always shows 2 times the huawei logo and then boot in erecovery from huawei where i tried to restore, but it shows always "fail to get data" (wifi works).
When i restore all partitions backups that i own via twrp i miss the data partition (is the cause why it wont boot - isn´t it?)
Now i searched for any img that i can use to get my phone working again - anyone has a tip what img i could use (i have a huawei update extractor) - through twrp or fastboot.
Could anyone help me with a twrp backup or a img file of data partition - or has another tip how to get my phone working again?
Thanks for tips!

I think that you need a system.img, so you can flash. This system imagem would write everything you need, so you can boot normally.
Have you tried to dowload @bluesmoothie backup from dropbox from the Root and Recovery post?
Here is the link, in case you don't find it https://www.dropbox.com/sh/qrk0fbpn5rnukxn/AAAmhFwBTNoqq0sWfCH-VMHLa?dl=0

Here the full Backup for the CAN-L11:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B134drJ4-Ed0R3VSY3A5NGpjVWc
Format /data, reboot recovery and than restore from backup. After the restore is complete make a wipe.
I restored my system from twrp (original first save). But that did not help.
After that i loaded the can-L11c432 update.zip from huawei and extracted with others the system.img - that also did not help to boot.
Tomorrow i flashed the orignal recovery.img from c432 but i did not find an update.zip wich works to manually flash in stock recovery.
@Vinnom the link you shared leads to twrp.img (no system.img).
@-=MoRpH=- thanks, i will try and report back. Is this anyway a chinese version in there? I think i have the same struggle you had days back. Is your phone completely working again?
So sick that my phone did not work. Now working with my "old" LG G2...
I report back later - first family dinner

@merlin21 yes it sounds like my problem after I tried to flash the emui5 beta.
My phone is fully working again with the backup I posted.
This is not the Chinese version, if nothing works, you can try the caz ROM. But there are massive problems with the gapps, they are not included in the rom.

i just flashed the twrp.img with fastboot from xelfmade v22.12. and then rebooted twrp.
Then formated data and confirmed with yes - rebooted recovery and tried to restore your twrp. It did not restore and aborted instantly with the error message
during restoreing cust...
extractTarFork() proecess ended with ERROR: 255
what could that be?
IT WORKS! Thanks @murph... I had to use the cust from my backup, but with your data partition it successfully booted again. Locking forward if i now have still the problem with read only system partition. I am away setting up phone again (and of course rooting, modifying etc.. but FIRST do a full backup after basic setup and safe in PC !!!)
Thanks!
P.S. how did you manage to back up data partition in recovery? I thought this wouldn't be possible?! What is the cost for having this full working twrp?
PPS. Somehow knock on screen for screenshot does not work - could be, that i have to log in with huawei id... does it work for you morp?

That only work if the is not rooted... Idk whats up with that, but for now i use the quicksetting screenshot function.
Somehow it worked with my rooted device before. Must be the decrypted data partition?
With the recovery of your backup I could not access data or change memory from data to sd. What version do you use?
I flashed xelfmades v22 and now have rw access and could backup all partitions and restore. Root and xposed modules everything works, just the knock on screen to capture don't...

May I ask how?
I'm kinda stuck personnaly. I have tried both Nand backups but no cigar. Still can't boot. I had the Data issue which I managed to get rid of.
I still end up with a ExtTarFork 255 kind of error. I tried to change the files attributes via adb shell, but it failed so I've got an OS-Less phone...
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I copied the backup, which is linked somewhere in this thread, to my sdcard and restored it on my Nova using twrp. The extractfork issue showed up while restoring '/cust' so i disselected cust in the restoring menu. After that the restoring worked and my nova was able to boot.
Hope this is any help to you.

That didn't do the trick for a while, or I might have forgotten a step, but deselecting CUST did the trick.
Thanks for the tip!
Although, maybe flashing the Cust partition I found in one of the two upgrade zips via fastboot might have helped? I dunno...
But in short, for those who haven't followed through, here's what I did, but I'm not sure this is why it worked:
1. Bricked my device : be sad;
2. DLed all the posted Nandroid backup on this thread and others;
3. With fastboot, reflashed TWRP from Xelfmade using "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img";
4. Flashed the CUST.img I found in the UPDATE.APP of the update_data_full_CAN-L11_hw_eu.zip; or maybe the other, only one of the two seem to have it; I extracted it using Huawei Firmware Extractor; using "fastboot flash cust cust.img";
5. Created a "fake" backup to create the right folder structure on my SD (TWRP Couldn't see the backups) and put the Nandroid Backups I DLed earlier in it;
6. Reboot in TWRP and Restore all partitions except CUST;
7. Reboot, sweat, wait, cry, roll on the floor in fear, heard the huawei startup sound, cried as if it was my first born child;
8. Setup the fone and profit; then enjoy Nova goodness;
92.324. and probably most important, TWRP BAAAACKUUUUP!!!!!
All done!
Thanks for your help my phone is saved with your method!!!

Frankly, I don't know. I had not modified the partitions prior to bricking my phone, so I think the partitioning was OK. However, I think one of the TWRP availble in this forum can format Data partition properly, which would utlimately allow you to select which File Format you want. I haven't tried it myself, and I haven't been able to do much with TWRP since I flashed Lineage unfortunately. Most of my Mods were just upgrading and I had to ADB Sideload pretty much everything since I flashed Lineage...
Sorry I couldn't be more helpful than that!
My phone was stuck in a bootloop where it could only get to recovery. Using the recovery I created a nandroid backup to the a USB stick using an OTG cable. I flashed the stock firmware and got things setup but I can't restore individuals apps from the nandroid. I copied the nandroid from the usb to sd card but it still doesn't work. I tried restoring apps using Nandroid Manager but when the app is launched it gives the error "app has stopped, close app". For some reasons sms succesfully restored but no user apps. I tried restoring with AppExtractor but it gives the error "unable to generate apk listing"
I also have titanium backup pro but couldn't get it to find the location of the nandroid to try extracting with it.
Any ideas? I really just want my messages back from Whatsapp.
My phone had stock Nougat with busybox installed and elementalx kernel. It should be the same environment now as when the backups were made.
@twoplustwo can you tell us why your phone went into bootloop ? If you know then you can restore /data from TWRP and revert the cause of bootloop..
Also can you confirm it's in capital letters as you have mentioned in small letters in another thread that twrp/backups rename them to TWRP/BACKUPS or move them to internal storage.. (in stock ROM if i am not wrong, TWRP folder is not accessible, so try to install custom ROM for temporary purpose, then move backup to internal and then try with titanium backup..)

yes it was in capital letters
the problem in the first place that sent the phone into a bootloop was I installed the OTA security update. I'm running stock rom but I guess because it was rooted and had busybox, that made it incompatible with the update?

If you have TWRP and take update, it don't cause bootloop, but it cause your device to boot into recovery when you turn on your device.. can you confirm if it was bootloop or problem of booting to TWRP ?
I am unable to copy the nandroid to internal storage. I tried using usb to computer and it just does nothing. I tried root explorer and it says 'copy failed' and file manager says 'cannot load'. This only happens with the TWRP folder inside the internal memory specifically.

I can confirm it was only booting TWRP. So even when I tried to boot to system it just booted to TWRP again.

You don't need to worry,
Do you have any important data for any app currently ?
Take backup of new important data with titanium.. (and then again take backup from TWRP, for safety )
And then simply restore /data from TWRP backup, it will give you older data back without any bootloop but you will loose new data/messages that you got after flashing/ on current running ROM..

Thank you sir! To confirm, when backing up to USB stick with OTG, does the format of the USB matter? Is fat32 safe?

Not familiar with different formats, it should work.. bu t
You can backup to internal storage too, since you don't have to flash fastboot ROM again..

Just want to confirm everything is working perfect now. Thank you again!
So, I tried installing the Note 8 port and now I can't seem to wipe the data partition. I have used every available version of TWRP with the same results. it won't mount the data partition.
from inside android doing a factory reset just restarts and nothing has been wiped.
I also lost root during this process and cant seem to get it back. I have a 935F/DS but the build number says N950F

You need to go through the process of fixing the encrypted data partition.

I have done all of that already to no avail. I have also tried flashing stock oreo firmware in Odin but after about 3 seconds it says it is done and nothing has changed. I am starting to think I must have done some irreversible damage to my Data partition. is that possible?

In TWRP, have you tried Wipe | Format Data?
This option is a button to the right of Advanced.

I am so sorry. I am a moron. I thought I tried that but I didnt. it worked..... TY SO MUCH!
You will have to reroot after. I was Magisk 16.3 and 5.8.3 apk. Then the data fix. I also never update Magisk after its installed.
