Since I lost everything from the boot to the recovery to the system part to anything, i haven't been able to boot the phone;
I can access erecovery but when I try to recover the phone it stops at downloading and then says couldn't connect to servers so that's dead;
I can access TWRP but when I try to flash MM, it returns errors saying that it couldn't mount partitions (Vendor, cust and other...)
I can access fastboot mode. Some people suggested that I should try recovering using dload but the transfert rate to the sd card is taking forever;
Now I extracted everything from update.app using huawei firmware extractor (see http://imgur.com/MWeCCXi ) what should I flash (via fastboot) and in what order?
I would really appreciate the help.

By Nougat I assume you mean the file that has been digged out somewhere in the web and that is floating around here in the forums?
Well we all don't really know what this build exactly is, which makes it very hard to reconstruct your errors and give you advice... I would never flash that but okay, that's why we are here
Do you have a TWRP backup that you can restore (and if no, maybe somebody can upload you a clean TWRP restore file)?
Have you tried flashing CM / AICP?

Thanks for your support anyway.

Hi there. Earlier I spent a few painful hours in the same boat you were in. I've managed to get back to a fresh install of the Nougat build from this thread, but can't seem the downgrade to MM using the (translated from Spanish) instructions found here (linked from that first thread). How did you manage to get back to MM?
(I should add that I tried to flash boot, system and recovery via fastboot without any success).
Cheers

May god have mercy on your soul.
For the downgrade, I didn't use the b161 directly. I flashed some oeminfo provided in the same folder as the TWRP. Then used b150 ans the three boutons method. Worked like a charm.
Hope it will help you downgrade your phone.
I have the same problem, someone could explain it to me step by step, please

Have you actually re-entered the OEM unlock code?
Sometimes it says unlocked but you still need to unlock it once more for it to work.
Can you access to stock recovery?
If yes put update.app on dload folder and flash it
You can reinstall the EMUI using your update.app and eRecovery. Place UPDATE.APP inside dload folder in the root of your SD card (make sure it's the right version) and start your phone while holding both volume buttons. Then unlock the bootloader and flash twrp.

Ok so you need to rekock the bootloader as
Fastboot oem relock <16 digit code>
Or download the full firmware for your phone and flash via dload method. Dload guide is mentioned in my signature. If you are unable to find the link to original firmware then let me know the buikd number you were on and will try to help.

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

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.

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.

unpack your firmware, extract stock recovery.img and flash it.
But for flashing do I need to unlock bootloader or it can be done without unlocking?

If it needs to flash recovery the same way as we do for custom roms like fastboot flash recovery in platform tools then i tried that doesn't work to make it work bootloader needs to be unlocked I did that(unlocked the boot loader) then flashed stock recovery and it worked but after locking the boot loader with fastboot oem lock same issue happened again couldn't boot into recovery.

To flash ANY partitions, u must unlock bootloader even if the partition is critical or not. And to prevent the boot/recovery image damaged error, u must flash stock boot/recovery images along with vbmeta.img ( also extracted from stock, same build ).

This is simply Stock Recovery with ADB enabled bro. It only can help u in some tasks which need to access adb via Recovery, it won't help to decrypt ur device and/or have any functions as other custom recovery
