What is system image?
When I open the backup menu I get an option I've never seen before in other phones called "system image".
Could someone please explain to me what it contains? And is there a need to back this up?

Can someone confirm this as working?
Should i rather wait for official twrp?
I have had old phones quite a while now and being a bit causious because i usually don´t spend 300€ to a phone.

Found OTA (looks like full) from some tutorial which has boot.img and full system dump
http://pan.baidu.com/s/1hq98Uoc

hey, so i just flashed this TWRP recovery and i managed to boot into TWRP recovery. But, whenever i click the 'Reboot' option or 'Power Off' option, the TWRP just stays right there and it won't even reboot or power off. I have to hold down the power button to turn off the phone and power it back. Any ideas why this is happening and anything that i've done wrong in the process?

Its a Bug, i guess same is happening with everyone. We just have to wait for official TWRP. and also
Bug Till NoW
Extra Option Named System partition Under Backup, Which has no Function and Doesn't Work.
Cant reboot/power off from recovery as it just freezes the recovery.
OTG doesn't work in Recovery.
TWRP gets replaced with Stock recovery after each Boot.

Hi there, I have bricked my Mate 9 and am having the same message. Did you get your Mate back to work? If so, please kindly share the method. Thank you very much!

I was on twrp and shield Rom, but wanted to test if flashing an official rom through Fastboot and restoring oeminfo could get official updates back. After flashing official recovery through twrp, I can't go back to fastboot o erecovery mode, only this screen.
I will have to take to technical support eventually, but was wondering if there is any solution to this...

What erecovery have you flashed?
Are you sure it's corresponding with your current EMUI?
Can you acceed to the bootloader mod? Apparently NO
Have you tried to re-install the TWRP from adb?
I don't understand why you installed the erecovery to install an official. It was unecessary. After, I didn't try to put a custom on this phone model. I'll take a look how to come back on official from a custom for this phone.

I actually flashed the official recovery because with twrp it cannot be updated. I can neither enter bootloader, so cannot flash twrp back.
All the img files have been extracted from an official rom, so I am quite sure. Thank you very much for the help!

Finally I had to take it to official technical support. And even they couln't fix it, because they just sent me a new one...I am gladly surprised by Huawei customer services.
Thank you for your interest in helping! It is much appreciated!! :good:

I have this version of the phone too. How different is the L12 from the L11? Would it be a huge stretch to think that the firmwares are similar enough to potentially be interchangeable? Both are dual sim. I have flashed the twrp successfully and also flashed the stock recovery of the L11 successfully. I am rooted but still cannot have complete root because of the read only issue of system and data partitions.

Hi
I need it too,
has anyone found?

hi all, i have the L01C432B131 CUSTC432D001 verison, and i can only enter fastboot and twrp recovery, I did a twrp backup before my nova went down, so i restored it, but i always have the 255 error
, i tried to flash the sys, cust, recovery, boot via fastboot commands, the sys.img and cust.img failed to pass because too large!, i tried mfastboot too, but same results,
So i thought if i build a flashable zip with (boot.sys.cust.) in the zip file will be a solution, i did, with a metafile found with the UPDATE.zip , but always error 7, maybe if i can find a good metainf for my device can be great! any help?
THANKS

No offense, but please calm down. You don't have to post your post in all threads... You'll get an answer when someone see it or is willing to answer.

just a question,
I didn't make the good backup before trying updates so i erased EVERYTHING on my can-l12
can i resurect it with a stock rom? or it is impossible?
now i cant restore my backup, I think i missed importants partition in backup

i have one boot problem any one can help ?

Cant flash systen or cust on CHM-UL01 (GPlay Mini)

Soo this time, I need some help. My mother owns an Gplay mini and because any stock way to update it was failing, I unlocked her bootloader and tried to flash the newest B596 from the general section. Flashing boot and recovery went fine, but system and cust just fails Everytime with an unknown error.
I can't boot anymore because I have the B596 boot image flashed. TWRP also didn't. It just wouldn't boot into the recovery and stay at the Huawei logo.
I know this is P8 Lite Section, but most G Play/Honor 4c users lurk around here because the honor 4c forums seems dead.

Well, I found an old OTA and I was able to use the recovery and boot inside to boot back into my system. At this moment it's flashing an update. Cust is already written and system seems to works as well. I think I fixed my mistake. I tried to flash from 4.4. directly to 6.0. I will report back if I can get what I want.

Hey man thanks that you tried to help me. I'm fine now. I flashed an old recovery from an OTA I found. Then I was able to use force update to install an UPDATE.APP I had on my SD Card. Tbh I don't even know what exact version it was, turns out it was Honor 4c B570 Europe region. Im just glad that I do not need to tell my mother that I broke her phone. Her phone is now rocking the newest P8 Lite Firmware. After I booted into Marshmallow, I was able to install TWRP and it all went fine.

No OS, can't mount vendor/product/

Hi there
Today I bought a pair of Bluetooth earphones and noticed that Bluetooth wasn't working anymore, so I decided to factory reset my vanilla ROM (EMUI 5.0).
That didn't work out and eventually I had to unlock the bootloader, flash a custom recovery (so far I tried both TWRP and Revolution) and a custom ROM.
However, something must have gone seriously bad because I now can't mount /product and /version.
When I try to install a rom (EliteROM by HassanMirza), it also tells me it couldn't load /cust and /data as well.
- cust: invalid argument
- data: invalid argument
- product: no such file or directory
- version: no such file or directory
I also tried moving an update.app version to my internal memory but doing that through gives me an error saying there's not enough space.
Pretty much at a loss here, no idea what to do. Anyone got an idea? Even willing to pay to get this fixed.

Great!! Use huawei update extractor (HERE) to extract all the .img files from the UPDATE.APP and try to flash them via fastboot.
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
and so on
This should help you and your phone should boot.

I tried that yesterday, but flashing the system.img file gave an error, something like "sparse flash write failed".
Would you have any idea what the correct build would be for a Belgian VNS-L31 which was previously on EMUI 5.0.
I got my phone with a subscription from Proximus and after the update, it just completely broke (the software I mean).
I'm from Bruges! And you?

Hmmm.. Can you flash stock recovery and dload the firmware?
The build depends on your Cxxx. What is it? I also got my phone from proximus! Assuming you didn't debrand your phone, it should be C02, but maybe you did debrand. However, I would suggest trying to dload the rollback package because you were on nougat. You can find it here. Follow the instructions in the PDF file of the zip package. But first, extract the recovery from UPDATE.APP

Hmm so I've currently moved the update.app file to my external sd (if I'm correct this is the /external_sd/ folder - had to do this through adb because I don't have a card reader atm) and then tried to update by pressing on/off button, volume down, volume up. However, this just brings me back to my Revolution recovery. Should I flash the stock recovery first?

Oh ok never gotten that far, great! So right now I did that but obviously I can't boot now.
I believe I now have to flash the full OS? Would it be ok if I flash TWRP or Revolution back just to use ADB and transfer the other update.app file, flash back to stock recovery and then use DLOAD method again?
Thanks so far for all the help, very much appreciated!
