so i just need to flash the bootloader and the radio from the recovery ?
no flashing from fastboot commands or something like that ?

Personally, I'd just flash them fastboot but that's my personal choice. Then flash the ROM, then GApps, then wipe cache/dalvik and voila - PA 4.3

No worries, I am from the UK anyway.
It looks like it is not reading the directory with "ls", a recovery reflash should fix that.

Ok, download the zip files from that thread, on TWRP go to ADB Sideload, on your PC do "adb sideload [zip file here]".
Replace the "[zip file here]" to those zip files so you need to flash the bootloader and radio first so you replace that with the name of the zip file which is in the same directory on your PC where you have set the CMD to read from.
Repeat for the rom and Gapps, of course when you get off ADB sideload wipe the device.

Well the directory is hidden to the Recovery somehow which is strange, have you tried mounting in the mounting section in TWRP?

i flashed supersu using twrp but phone got stuck in boot image

Step 1 use adb to flash recovery in Fastboot modus. Use yash98's recovery.
Commands:
Fastboot devices (enter)
Fastboot flash recovery (filename recovery). Img (enter)
Fastboot boot (filename recovery). Img (enter)
Step 2 flash image oos 3 in twrp
Step 3 flash supersu again specific version for oos 3
Step 4 there is no step 5 ?

Hi guys,
I have a honor 6 plus (PE-TL10), it was running EMUI 4. I flashed TWRP 2.8.7 and then wiped all partitions through it(cust,system,etc) then flashed stock recovery back, now i am trying to install EMUI 4.0.1(Android 6.0) via 3 buttons Huawei update but it stops at 5% and fails. Can you guys provide me with any help, I really need it.
Also now when i am trying to wipe data thru stock recovery i get an weird error message at almost 25% saying "reset balong modem setting fail", which making it more difficult to get back stock rom.
Just last question; the Unbrick option in the "HONOR_6_and_6Plus_Multi-Tool", wil it restore the device to stock rom and fully functional state after that or it will miss some parts of the stock rom ?
Many thanks and regards

For you to restore to stock you need to flash boot, recovery, system and cust.
Make sure you have stock boot and recovery to for forced update (3 buttons).
What happens in most of the cases is boot and recovery files are corrupt.
I would try the unbrick of the Multitool. If it fails, I would flash manually all img files for each partition. But using the same firmware version as the last installed one.
Post your results and I will try to help.

1:Extract the ROM with huawei update extractor
2:download latest minimal adb and fastboot drivers and install them
3ut the extracted system.img,recovery.img,cust.img,boot.img and userdata.img into the fastboot.exe folder
4: boot into the fastboot mode
And finally flash the above mentioned imgs one by one with this command
fastboot flash XXX XXX.img
After flashing files type
Fastboot reboot
and every thing should be fine again

Thank you for answering, I did used Huawei MultiTool and Unbricked my device. I flashed four img files(SYSTEM,CUST,RECOVERY,BOOT) and now i am back to stock rom and running smoothly.
I tried to use force update feature on my device after that but again i got the same result, it stopped at 5% and failed. I guess i will keep it the way it's now.
Many thanks; you guys are awesome!

Thank you, I did that except for userdata.img file, the Huawei MultiTool only mentioned 4 files(system,recovery,boot,cust). Now my device is running back again on stock rom. Should I flash userdata.img file or is it ok?
Just a question that i keep asking myself; inside the stock update.app file there are 22 img files, what do they do? I only flashed four of them so what purpose do the rest serve as? if the device can operate fully functional with four of them!
Many thanks,

Don't use any other img file. And don't flash userdata.
If it works, don't change it. ?

Got similar issue on my honor 6. Can't update via SD card method or 3 button after leaving developer preview. Not even OTA updates install. All fail at 5%. So I'm stuck on B830 for now. Will try for a solution later.

Flashing producer.
1. Complete wipe.(including vendor,data,internal)
2. Flash twrp installer
3. Flash skydragon and twrp installer
4. Reboot to twrp.
5. Install open gapps and magisk.
6. Reboot to system.
