If you wanna restock your Indian Honor 5X (kiw-l22) for warranty reasons, etc, this guide should, well, guide you!
This method works no matter which recovery or rom you're on. Data is wiped. So backup if you care about your data.
1) Download the following file and extract it.
http://consumer.huawei.com/in/support/downloads/detail/index.htm?id=76783
2) Copy the dload folder to your phone's external memory card.
3) Shut down your 5X and let it stay like that for 10-20 seconds.
4) Press and hold the volume up and down buttons and press the power button.
5) Let go of the power button once you feel the vibration while keeping the volume buttons pressed.
6) The device should enter Software Upgrade mode and the flashing should start automatically.
7) Let it flash and reboot twice.
8) You'll be back to 100% stock. :highfive:
PS : If anybody is kind enough to mirror the file, I'll be glad to add it to the OP.

Finger print sensor fixed in CM13, the build should be up soon. Here is the post from the forum:

Hi,
on KIWI-L22 (Indian)
I had enrolled for beta program previously, so installed b130 and updated to 6.0 MM beta. I didnt like it much, so I switched back to CM 13.0.
As Official MM 6.0 is out now, so I wanted to switch to stock.
Following the procedure mentioned in OP, I downloaded L22-B130 and tried to restore stock but it failed mentioning "wrong version".
then I downloaded the L22-B320 version
http://www.hihonor.com/in/support/details/?DOC_ID=83346
and follow the same procedure. "voila" I returned to stock MM 6.0.
My whole point in saying all this is once upgraded to MM, then you have to use the MM "update.app".
Many thanks to Cosmodroid for this post.

Flashed succesfully my XT1524 with XT1524_SURNIA_RETEU_6.0_MPI24.65-39_cid7_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip using Firmware Flasher. Initial boot after flashing took about 15 minutes (maybe less, but I've been out of the room for some time).
Now I'm testing it, but everything seems to fine, until now.
Many thanks!

HAPPY FLASHING :good:
worked no problem here as well. thanks!
Since my previous post in this thread, my XT1524 works flawlessly. Seems that the battery is draining faster compared to 5.0.2, but I can't say for sure - I'm using it as daily phone with navi, push e-mail, data and wi-fi always on and talk time varies a lot. I've managed 2 days and a half between charges, so I can't complain.

i think 6.0 is not good for this device as a daily driver it consumes lot of ram and battery so wait for 6.0.1 or just flash back to 5.1.1 so that you will get better ram space and battery life !!
This will help a lot

I'm also one of the fools that got his phone stuck in the boot... it boots up till the Huawei logo and after that nothing. I've tried several solutions but still no luck.
I've3 got the Nougast recovery from Bulywolf (or something) and i've tried flashing different roms but no luck so far. I also made the mistake to change the data partition from f2 to ext4... I guess that caused all the problems but how do i solve it?
It is actually doing my head in...
I managed to install the first file from the rollback tutorial... It said it was succesfull but now I'm still stuck seeing the Huawei logo... So I guess it didn't work
Edit: Managed to get in! But it says my version is NRD90M test-keys....

Are you sure you have right phone version VNS-L23?
You wanted to update to B329 which is Android 7.0 right? If so, put the right package to downgrade to MM and then try three-buttons way.
yeah my device is the VNS-L23C605B120 and i can´t find any update.app that could work, the device stay in logo mode when I tried to downgrade it or reflash it..

Hello there
Do you have access to TWRP or Revolutionary recovery? If so, you can check on google for "Huawei P9 Lite oeminfo", downloadit, flash zip via recovery(TWRP or Revolutionary), then try to force update you phone by holding all 3 buttons when phone is booting up, make sure that you have update.app in dload folder on sdcard.
DON'T FORGET TO SAVE YOUR BOOTLOADER UNLOCK CODE!!!

Hi bro!
Could you find something for your version? I also have the same model and I have a hard brick, could you solve your mistake?
Could you give me the official firmware link for this model (VNS-L23C605B120) please?
THAANKS!!
well, here is some you can try, find a downgrade update.app, later re flash it with the according restore update.app, it will end to 97% but it`ll work enough to start the cellphone and install the custom twrp recovery and make an good install.

Hello,
try this before u bring phone to assistance..
Check if TWRP work for you, and if you donot have then install one for your version firmware then put in SD the files in links...
Reboot recovery and flash oeminfo.zip.
When finished turn off the phone and reboot with vol up+vol down+power buttons until flash starts...
When finished reboot to e-recovery (vol up+power button) and make a factory reset.. That' all...
Wish you the best..

Hey i dont know if i can help,
explain the problem as better as you can.
Yeeeeah, if you ask me Elite rom is simply bad. Yes, it is fast and etc, but if i have to pay for some features then that is a BIG NO.
Why you want to flash Elite rom though? Half of the mods barely work and it is no different from the stock EMUI.
Hello everyone, have been a long time
I have a VNS-L21 (P9 Lite 2016) from Colombia, it worked fine but I started to get more and more ads over the time so I decided to unlock the bootloader and root it, and I did it, after almost a year of working just fine, the phone start to restart by itself with no reason around 1 or 2 days per month, they were not scheduled or something.
Last night the phone started to restart by itself again, but this time after it turned on completely it went off some minutes later and started to restart several times without reason, I got frustrated so I decided to uninstall root (thought it was the problem) but the problem was still there, turn on and after some minutes it went off and restart.
Then I decided to check for updates and it had a pending update so I chose to install it but after restart, it won’t come on and kept in an endless boot loop.
Can anyone help me and tell me what to do? Thanks in advance...

Hello,
I bet that along with the root you also had a custom recovery.
So if before you install the update you have re-flashed the stock recovery, simply hold vol + and power button until it restarts in e-recovery mode. At this point make a factory reset and wipe cache.
Reboot system, done.
If instead you have not reinstalled the stock recovery, download one for the system you use (android 6 or 7) and install it via fastboot. ( you can download a rom the same version you use and extract recovery with extractor.
There are two recovery.img in the rom, just take recovery, NOT recovery2 ).
Try to reboot with vol + and power until you turn it on,
then factory reset in custom recovery.
Reboot in fastboot mode, install stock recovery, reboot system and launch again the update.
Happy holidays and good luck

No worries dude my english is very bad too......
So, you're in nougat L21, but what is your complete firmware ? (example L21C432B504)
Then download from official THREAD Firmware Finder for PC and unzip in a folder on your desktop.
Launch FF and go to COMMON BASE tab.
Type your complete firmware into search space and click on the search button...
Find FULL OTA MF firmware, tap on FILELIST tab, a pop up will appear...
Select the whole link of ONLY update.zip and copy/past into your browser for download...
Once downloaded, unzip to a folder on your desktop.
Download Huawei Update Extractor you find here on XDA...
Launch HUE and select UPDATE.APP you find into folder you just unzipped from upadate.zip...
Now you'll see two recovery, just select recovery.img and with mouse's* right key extract somewere on your desktop...
Done dude you have stock recovery....
Copy that .img recovery into your adb/fastboot folder (very important) and reboot in fastboot mode.
If you don't have adb/fastboot just download here from XDA..
From PC with terminal launch "fastboot flash recovery
(name.of.recovery).img" and recovery will be flashed.
Now you have stock recovery and can make stock ota update correctly.
Hope all will take right way, feel free to ask.
Good luck :fingers-crossed:

Launch FF and go to COMMON BASE tab.
Type your complete firmware into search space and click on the search button...
Find FULL OTA MF firmware, tap on FILELIST tab, a pop up will appear...
Select the whole link of ONLY update.zip and copy/past into your browser for download...
Once downloaded, unzip to a folder on your desktop.
Download Huawei Update Extractor you find here on XDA...
Launch HUE and select UPDATE.APP you find into folder you just unzipped from upadate.zip...
Now you'll see two recovery, just select recovery.img and with mouse's* right key extract somewere on your desktop...
Done dude you have stock recovery....
Copy that .img recovery into your adb/fastboot folder (very important) and reboot in fastboot mode.
If you don't have adb/fastboot just download here from XDA..
From PC with terminal launch "fastboot flash recovery.img" and recovery will be flashed.
Now you have stock recovery and can make stock ota update correctly.
Hope all will take right way, feel free to ask.
Good luck :fingers-crossed:

Hello again
thanks for your help, your guide is really useful
One more thing (excuse me for my little knowledge about this) I don't know what's the exact firmware for my phone, I mean I know it is VNS-L21 and should end B3xx but don't know which C... (I didn't check before the cellphone started to bootloop).
I search around the web and found some recommend the C432 one so I download the update.zip from it, would it have any problem if I flash the recovery from there?
And last thing, Can I flash recovery with P9 lite Toolkit? or just through adb? thanks in advance.

Dude at this step how can you tell you were on nougat ?
Is your device branded / unbranded one ?
I searched for Colombia firmware and L21 device don't exist, please check behind the cover,
it's wrote at the bottom. ( maybe L23 one ? )
Try to someway backup your stuff then
reboot with vol+ and power button to recovery, tap WIPE then SWIPE to factory reset.
If boot correctly see inside wich is your complete firmware.
C432 are for european area devices, teoratically should work, but will not risk...
Recovery.img can be easily be flashed with toolkit, i used it a lot of times...

Hey dude
You really know about this, I'm sure because I updated the phone to Nougat before unlock and root it, time after an update came but I ignore it (I know it was a security updated not sure which one).
Yes, I just checked my phone in the backpart and it is L23, my bad, when you say branded it means if it is related to a phone/internet company? No, it is not tied to any company, I bought it free from internet.
I really don't care about backing up, if it starts from zero or is back to previous stage is fine for me since it can turn on and use it .
Cheers!

OK, since from first time i saw this post i thinked was a hardware problem, hope no....
You have to reboot to recovery holding vol+ and power button until a recovery will appear.
Then make a factory reset as already wrote in previous post.

Hi there
Sorry for the late reply...
I managed to turn on the phone updating it through dload method (installing stock kernel and trying to update it with erecovery didn't work) without your help I wouldn't know how to to download the right firmware for my phone. Now, my phone is working "properly".
BUT my phone show a new update, when I tried to install it, it says "your device fail verification and may not work properly" and won't install the update, after that if I reboot the phone it will show your device... sign in red letters and won't turn on without choosing continue (when I was using custom kernel, it will show some letters in orange I think, but will turn on by itself without pressing continue) when I installed the firmware through dload I didn't see that message till I try to update the phone.
Thanks in advance and a very happy new year!.

Dear forgive me, even for me English it's not my main language and maybe
i did not grab everything you posted. Did you use the dload method?
So you were on EMUI 4 / android 6, but now? If I understand correctly when you turn
on the device, see the red lines and press the power button to boot into the system?
If so, unlock again the bootloader.
If you want to post some screenshots so as to simplify ...
Best regards

Hey dude,
Don't worry about replying soon or late,
we all have our personal stuff to do in our lifes...
You' ve been lucky you don't bricked your device using dload method
on your nougat/android 7 rom version.
This is allowed only to downgrade to a precedent android version (in your case android 6/Marshmallow...)
Even it says your bootloader is unlocked, it isn't, so backup your stuff and unlock it again.
Once unlocked, factory reset will start. When finished do wipe cache too...
Booting into the system will now show yellow (not red) lines and after a bit will automatically boot.
Will take some minutes... ( prepare a coffee )
Set up your phone and look forward for updates...
If all will take right direction, new update will completely lock the bootloader
and at the reboot no yellow or red lines will appears. :fingers-crossed:
Voilà, complete stock with latest firmware.
Take your coffee and enjoy :laugh:
Best regards
P.S.: Remove or obscure the screenshot with imei codes ( it's sensitive datas )
