Hi,
I have stock ROM on my Axon 7 A2017 China but recovery is TWRP. I can't perform the OTA because TWRP takes over.
Can someone guide me to return to stock recovery?
Is it possible to return stock recovery without losing my apps and settings?
Thanks,

Maybe there's a MiFlash package. I'm aware of flashable recovery zips for the A2017G but they'll probably brick your phone if you attempt to use one on a Chinese. Maybe search for a flashable A2017 recovery?
@raystef66 Did you make those flashable recovery zips for the G? Could you make ones for the Chinese and U?

@alxla Btw, are you on MM or Nougat ? And which china version you have bought ?
Yeah, all stock recoveries from Download Center are for G version. They all can be flashed with fastboot flash recovery yourstockrecovery.img
I don't have stock recoveries of A2017 nor U version.
But here are some stock zips you can download and extract recovery and flash : https://mega.nz/#F!kYtRAJjJ!5tD1zPpo0nw2tJwhANA9pQ!tNsQhD5Y

I am still new to all of this. I am unsure what to do to "extract recovery and flash". I downloaded the ROM from the link your provided but I don't know what to do next. Can you give me some instructions?

I understand. We're here to help you out
Since you have TWRP i think you know how to setup ADB ?
There are other ways but i keep it on ADB method to flash recovery.
Connect your phone to pc. Setup ADB.
From that ROM you've downloaded, extract the "recovery.img". (use 7-zip to view rom and pull out the .img )
Put the recovery.img in your ADB folder.
Open terminal in ADB folder ( shift+right click ) and type "adb devices"
You should see some numbers and "devices"
If so type "adb reboot bootloader" (your phone reboots to fastboot mode, no problem...)
Type "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
Enter
If done ok type "fastboot reboot". Your phone will boot up as normal.
To test if your TWRP has gone, try to enter in recovery mode. TWRP should be gone.
Your DONE!
If further problems, let me know :good:

Afaik you loose the OTA updates after rooting (because of twrp) so how do you keep your system up to date? or is this somthing that you risk in order to root your phone
You can try to flash the stock recovery back and install the firmware manually or using the updater, or you find the firmware in flashible zip format and flash it through twrp. I personally rooted without keeping Twrp so i can still update.
Thanks for answering! And yeah the problemas is that I cant find the firmware updates anywhere, so how do I root without a custom recovery? Can you tell me some hints to find the solution or a link? Thanks again
EDIT: Oh, just found a way, and in case someone is also wondering heres how its done: You have to boot to twrp through adb, and then you can flash super su without flashing the custom recovery . This is the generic way to do it, have not tested im my P8 yet, will report later.

*No need to go through all the hassle there is an automated script which i used it myself if you are still on stock recovery, it installs Twrp to flash superSu and then restores the original recovery.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/p8l...otloader-root-p8-p8lite-t3164956#post62851688
*If you are on Twrp, you can download "Huawei update extractor" http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454 use it to extract your firmware (update.app) and take from it the 'recovery.img'. Then go to platform-tools where you open the CMD from, place the recovery.img in it you can rename it to "stockrecovery.img"
then "shift+right click" open the command line.
type: adb reboot bootloader
type: adb devices ----->to see your device
type: fastboot flash recovery 'type hear the name of recovery'
example: flastboot flash recovery stockrecovery.img
type: fastboot reboot ----->reboot device
some tutorial i found on youtube:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YfWYKREeQeQ
By the way the method for Twrp i haven't tested but that's the theory, so please do it on your own risk and do the required research. Goodluck:good:
Edit: Another method in theory if you have Twrp could be to use 'flashify' app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgollner.flashify&hl=en to flash the stock 'recovery.img' which you extracted from the stock firmware. No need to use adb.

I still haven't changed the bootloader so it will be easier, I was waiting for the email from huawei but never received, but with the link you provided I was able to get the code instantly (since my model GRA-UL10 isn't on the list) its late here so will try it tomorrow. But I have a final question, will be possible to flash SuperSU without flashing twrp? There is a command that lets you boot twrp without flashing I just don't want to reflash my bootloader unnecessarily, thanks in advance. After this I will probably post a guide since it is not easy to find everything in one place.

In order to root your device you need a custom recovery which gives you the ability to push files which is not possible with the stock recovery that's how i understand it. The script in the link i gave u automates the steps you have to do manually, if you are going to root the device using the command line you will need a su.zip to flash using twrp, and a twrp recovery image through which you will access the file system, and finally knowing the command lines to do it all which is all in all is a hassle. So booting into or flashing twrp isn't really a big deal (at least for me) as long as you have the stock recovery by the end of it all.
I install twrp and accidentally wipe all system data there is no backup
when i install new firmware it says unknown file system osip.
when i go to recovery it says there is no os
my phone is not start?
plz help me
Just flash the rom you want. The osip thing is dosen't matter. Just flash the rom and you are golden

What kind of recovery are you using? If you are using stock recovery. Just use add sideload. If you are using TWRP. Then go to fastboot and flash the stock recovery. You can find the stock recovery in the rom downloaded from Asus : https://www.asus.com/Phone/ZenFone_5_A500CG/HelpDesk_Download/. Version 2.22.40.540 is recommended
i use twrp and adb sideload and recovery mode not working

Hi,
I have an A2017G which after trying linageos had the stock rom from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/development/rom-guide-updates-to-stock-files-via-t3469484 TWRP and an unlocked bootloader. That worked ok, and I wanted to upgrade to the stock ROM 7.1. I installed this using TWRP https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71664539&postcount=29. But now when it boot's after the bootloader it's stuck showing a linux logo, and it won't boot Android.
In the bootloader (http://i.imgur.com/Os4vkwT.jpg) I can try to go to fastboot, but selecting that only reboots the phone. I can however select recovery and go to the stock recovery (http://i.imgur.com/PBj6y6X.jpg). From there I have tried to sideload (selecting Apply update from ADB and adb sideload rom.zip) the stock rom (http://www.ztedevice.com/support/detail?id=1170789A90BA42E18B3364B80C7F5A26), the previous rom I tried to install (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71664539&postcount=29) and another TWRP stock rom (https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/development/rom-kernel-stock-7-1-1-b02-based-a2017g-t3592470) but all fail at the very beginning saying "(adbd status 1) Installation aborted" (http://i.imgur.com/RzNSBtu.jpg).
I also tried to install linageos back using sideload but it fails ("failed to verify whole-file signature"). I believe that is because it's not the official rom and the stock recovery only accepts that.
ADB only works in sideload mode and fastboot doesn't (it loads the bootloader again).
Do you know how I should proceed? How could I install the stock rom, or TWRP again?
Thanks in advance.
Try it with this guide:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/guide-reinstall-twrp-root-update-to-t3578552
If you can't flash recovery with axon7toolkit try it with the last step "Get Fastboot" first. ZTE removed the fastboot mode in Nougat, so you have to flash another fastboot image.
If you can boot into fastboot again you can flash TWRP and from TWRP a rom.
Good luck!
Hi Darkem,
Thanks a lot, that actually worked. I was under the impression I wouldn't be able to install TWRP because I was only able to use the command "adb sideload update.zip" but other commands like "adb reboot edl" didn't work. But as it's said in the other post, pushing the three buttons of the phone set the phone into EDL mode. From there I was able to install TWRP.
Thanks a lot again
(A2017G) Hello. I no longer have access to fastboot because I flash a stock rom (Nougat) with the recovery stock and it has removed my modified bootloader, I managed to install twrp in edl mode but I still have no access to bootloader. What should I do please? Flash a stock rom (Marshmallow) here (https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/download-center-factory-images-ota-t3606547) to gain access to fastboot again (bootloader )? Thank you.

Sorry, why do you want fastboot? If you're planning to relock the bootloader you'll need to be fully stock, which wouldn't be the case if you just installed a fastboot zip. Relocking the bootloader is probably the only thing that fastboot is mandatory for

Did you type fastboot flash recovery twrp version. img? You need to include the full name of twrp recovery. If not, fastboot doesn't know what to flash.

Charge it for a day, then press vol + button and power button and see if you can get to fast boot. Try plugging USB in and see if it's recognised, otherwise.

Boot your phone into fastboot first. Connect it to your pc. Make sure you already installed adb drivers. Then extract the downloaded rom. And finally, run flash_all.

From stock rom also he can make his phone alive/ working.
