Hello! I have an P8Lite ALE-L21 unlocked and by mistake I delete the system.. Now I don't have OS to boot
What can I do now to have back?
Download the rom for your phone then install the rom using the recovery system op the phone.
If that doesn't work try flashing the rom through fastboot.

I tried both but it dosen't work
I don't find source with system.img
Use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454&page=31 to extract the system.img
- Fastboot flash boot boot.img
- Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
- Fastboot flash cust cust.img
- Fastboot flash system system.img
- Fastboot reboot
Use those commands and I hope it will be fixed.
Hi, my problem is with the L31,
I've trying to downgrade from Nougat to MM. I saw on the thread this steps and i followed:
"Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot flash system system.img
Fastboot flash cust cust.img (This one is in the second zip from badwolf nougat download)
Then I flashed badwolfs recovery b2 as that one lets me transfer files from pc to phone and followed instructions from htcmania from here".
The problem is that i didn't reach to downgrade and when i try to reinstall Nougat by TWRP i get this error messages:
" E: Unknow comand (errno) update_huawei-pkg_from_ota_zip: update package from zip failed"
"Updater process ended with error: 7
Error installing zip file '/external_sd/DLoad/Update.zip'
Updating partition details...
...done"
Now my phone stays freeze on the huawei logo and the flashtool doesn't even recognize my device.
Can someone help me with this matter, please?

"I had to first extract the nougat firmware with huawei firmare extractor and flash everything by fastboot
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot flash system system.img
Fastboot flash cust cust.img (This one is in the second zip from badwolf nougat download)
Booth files you can find it in this page.

To flash img. i used the file that i attached.
Good luck
so now i restored twrp , i put the update app in sd card and it doesn't want to flash , i'm still trapped in bootloop but i have access to twrp now what to do now ?
I found the old twrp is okey for downgrade,
Just put b161 update.app into sdcard/dload and press volume down + power key.
but flash badwolf's twrp will get stuck in fastboot, though It's not really bricked.
hi, maybe you also have a solution for my problem.
i installed a wrong update via sd card (dload etc.), now my phone is just black no signal nothing. and it seems like a fastboot loop always when i plug into the pc im in fastboot without doing anything
when i try to unlock the bootloader i get "failed command not allowed")
and also when i try to flash the extracted files from update.zip i get the same error ("failed command not allowed")
by the way i didnt active usb debuggin or oem unlocking
please help thank you
Hey, I need to flash a persist.img file, because my phon restarts every 2 Minutes and does not find any WiFi, but it gives me out the error: remote:Error : persist partition not allowed download. Is there a way to flash it without twrp, since when I try to flash a custom recovery, it says partition table not found. Is there a way to flash persist.img in Mi Flash Tool?

Don't have Twrp, can't flash custom recovery, it says partition table does not exist
boot to fastboot and
give the command
fastboot boot twrp.img
instead of fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Hey guys,
I tried flashing TWRP to recovery partition, but I get: FAILED: remote: partition table doesn't exist. I could only boot to TWRP by flashing it into the boot_a partition, flashing everythong I need and then replacing boot_a from twrp.img back to stock boot.img. I could flash Magisk, but when I rebbot it to system, it just stays on the android one screen and I have to use flash_all script to restore it. My Mi A1 has Android 8 Oreo. please help.
Have you solved? if you've solved how did you do? thank
You need to use the correct twrp boot image and twrp installer zip file. Go to mohancm's twrp thread and download the correct files according to your android version.

Most probably by following one of the available guides Mi A1 doesn't have recovery partition for example.
Hello, good day. I just wanted to ask, (Im using custom rom now and my old backup is nowhere to be found) If I am going to flash my device to official stock rom, like if I flashed the older version (lets say the MM) can I still update my device today (up to nougat) through OTA update?
i think huawei cloud is the site where we download OTA updates from but I think is already dead.
(sorry if my poiint is confusing, I just really don't know how to explain it clearly)

So if I not mistaken, your build number is VNS-L31C185 EMUI 5 (correct me if I'm wrong).
Firmware finder and Huawei old server are down, so download service ROM.
IMO now you have two possibilities:
A) flash Service ROM using dload method, guide can be found in ReleaseDoc folder. The process will erase all your data and lock the BL again!
B)
- from downloaded ROM extract BOOT.img
RECOVERY.img
SYSTEM.img
CUST.img via 'Huawei update extractor' , follow Guide
(Note: CUST.img on Nougat can be found in the second archive)
- In fastboot mode flash extracted partitions using commands
fastboot flash boot BOOT.img
fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.img
fastboot flash system SYSTEM.img
fastboot flash cust CUST.img
- fastboot reboot
- Factory reset in stock recovery

Oh yeah. I just figured it out but had to rename that to update.app so update extractor can accept the file. Thanks by the way.
for now SYSTEM and CUST takes time to finish extracting.

Try command
fastboot erase userdata
and reboot.
Check your current build number etc.

Bro try this way out...
Download and install TWRP (if possible) and let me know
Upd.: nevermind, I forgot you don't have an sd card,.
Upd.2.: without SD you can try to flash Service ROM (or B361 firmware) using TWRP and sideload method. Unfortunately, sideload is Greek to me , so google it.

I can still go fastboot mode and install everything without any errors but I don't why, it confuses me that let say I just flashed recovery (custom or stock) but when I'm going to access it (volume up + power button) phone just vibrates twice but nothing will happen.

Flash TWRP over eRecovery, run command
fastboot flash recovery2 twrp.img
fastboot reboot
when a yellow warning appears on the screen, pres and hold Vol Up for 3 sec.
Edit: maybe your data partition is formatted with f2fs (after installing Elite ROM) , it should be ext4. I'm out of ideas bro, sorry.

No problem. I think I hard bricked my phone, I just got boot logo and fastboot but I can't find any fix or solution or anything to do with this.
Flashing recovery or recovery2 finished w/o any errors but I can't boot to recovery.
Thanks for your help by the way. I appreciate it! Kudos and have a nice day. Keep safe.

IMO you only need an SD card and flash the Service ROM.
