[SOLVED] How to unroot, relock bootloader and flash EMUI ?

Hello,
I tried to flash the RessurectionRemix ROM and it was working well except the LTE so I decided to get back to EMUI.
Problem, i took the backup of bluesmoothie and flashed it but the phone never finish to boot.... (I didn't wipe anything, i thought that the restore function of TWRP was doing everything, am I wrong ?)
Moreover, the TWRP recovery can't access the content of my ext sdcard where the RR ROM is located and even if i put this rom to internal storage, i got the ERROR 7 (this is for deive: can; you have generic_a53)
Do you know what can I do to :
- Come back to EMUI
- Unroot the phone
- Re-lock the bootloader
The files of the TWRP backup are located on the sdcard, if i wipe data/system/cache, will it delete these files ?
Infos :
- Bootloader unlocked
- TWRP of Garak (but still have ERROR 7 now)
Thank you very much

First you need to flash the stock recovery in fastboot. After that you need to put the update.app in a folder called dload in your internal storage.

Okay but where can I find the stock recovery ?
Then, do i have to flash it via ADB like i did with TWRP ?
After that, where can I find the "update.app" that you are talking about ?
If i'm right, you're telling me that i can't go back to EMUI without flashing the stock recovery ?

That is correct. First use firmware finder to get the update.app. There is a firmware extractor tool for Huawei firmware. Use it to extract the recovery.img and flash with fastboot.

First of all, thank you very much for your anwser, it's very kind of you.
If i understood everything, that's what i have to do :
- Download one of the Huawei firmwares with Huawei Finder (Better get the B100 or another one ?)
- Extract the recovery.img with the update.app from Huawei Finder
- Flash the stock recovery with ADB
Then :
- I put the update.app that i get through the Huawei Finder in the dload folder of the internal storage (If i flash the stock recovery, will I be able to put files in the storage ?)
- I reboot the phone in recovery and normally, it should install the EMUI rom
At the end, my phone will no longer have a custom recvery, bootloader unlocked and root status ?

Yes, that's correct. But you have to put update.app in dload folder on your SD card as far as I know. That's how I did it.
I couldn't find B100 on Firmware Finder and I've got relocked bootloader on Nougat.

Yes, you will need to copy the update.app to internal storage in TWRP, then flash the stock recovery. After flashing you need to hold all three buttons when booting (just like getting into TWRP. After update you will have no custom recovery, no root, and it should lock bootloader.

If it doesn't boot, then boot in recovery and do a factory reset and then it should boot. It happened to me and that's what I did.

I still have the warning message "your phone is unlocked", is it normal ?
When i boot into recovery it's displaying "eRecovery" and ask me to download the new update of recovery but it fails when getting the package. I can only reboot and turn off :/
Thank you as always

You shouldn't have that message anymore.
Are you sure that the update.app got installed? @wangdaning told you to put it on dload folder in internal memory. I don't know if that is right or if it works, but I've put it in dload folder on sdcard when I've installed update.app.

You can read in this post the steps I've used to relock the bootloader and get update (official I guess) through Settings > System update. Just "click to show content".

The problem is that the phone doesnt finish to but anymore... i can't do things in menu.
When you talk about SD card, it's the external sd card ? Because i don't have access to it anymore, but i have the partition SD Card
When you installed the B340 update, you seen the percent growing up and had a "success" message ? Because, for me, the update is stuck at 5% and then it reboot the phone

Yes, I mean external sdcard.
Reinstall TWRP and restore bluesmoothie's backup and then flash the stock recovery again.
I didn't have any issues with installing the B340 firmware. It was installed successfully.
Try to follow the steps I've used. You shouldn't have any problem.

Okay i'm going to try it right away
My external sd card doesnt show up anymore when i connect it to my PC, i don't know why

I mentioned internal SD card because you said your external was not recognized, but you might try putting the dload folder on external. I have done it both ways. Sometimes the update through stock recovery is finicky. If it doesn't finish run it again. Also, make sure your USB is disconnected, as may Huawei users have mentioned this causes it to freeze. If it still fails, try dloading a different update from firmware finder.

Did it work?

I didn't have so much time these days but I did it and it worked for the 1st part (flash bouesmoothie's backup). Tomorrow I'll do the final step! Thank you again

Here I am :
1 : flashed stock recovery from B350 and i don't have the "unlocked" message anymore !
2 : The update B350 made it, "update success"
3 : It doesn't boot for now
4 : The boot doesn't end
-----
1 : flashed TWRP recovery, launched a factory reset in the same time
2 : Phone booting again on B100
-----
1 : flashed stock recovery from b350
2 : flashed b350 update
3 : Everything is fine !
Thank you for your help !!!

It's impossible that firmware finder don't work on Europe code ( c432 ) .
Download firmware finder
Download proxy installer from FF settings ( set proxy install )
Find ROM b370 with ".PV" end . If u will use another ROM u won't have half of system apps . IF u coming from mm u must use .PV file and the only file with ".PV" end is b370 . Choose proxy install
Proxy installer app should open . Do what is says
It says ( change wi-fi settings , go to update settings in settings , find new update , download 1% of it , go tour wi-fi and delete what u set , download full ROM and he phone should update itself . Then I can use others updates ( others than .pv )
Ta da. U got nougat
Did ihelp u ? Click ?

TWRP only, 100% guaranteed method to success , wipe dalvik & cache, flash update.zip, go back to Install in TWRP menu (without reboot ! ) and flash second file ...hw_eu.zip. Reboot system , enjoy .
(you will see two red errors in TWRP, it's okay)
Use TWRP 3.0.2.0 only !!!

"i know the 1.25gb file is too small and i had to roll back..." - what do you mean by that, you had tried update to Nougat and then downgrade using Rollback package ?
If so, and youf phone stay at NRD90M test-keys, try at first install via dload MM firmware from here
http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1164/g104/v66015/f1/full/update.zip
Create a new folder dload in root directory of SD card (root directory : it means dont put it in any folder .) Now unpack the rollback package and copy its contents “UPDATE.APP” to the “dload” folder. Use the 3 button combo installation.
Ensure that the installation will succeed.
You must unlock the bootloader again, install TWRP etc.
It must work.

Well my phone got bricked no dload or fastboot etc hopefully makig it run out of battery and charging it again will help.

Back to stock using fastboot

Hi, since i'm not confident with adb/fastboot commands, i'm asking help for restoring the original firmware and recovery in my MLA-L11.
I've downloaded the two files from Firmware Finder (i'm sure 100% they are the right one) but i don't know how to proceed. Anyone can help there? Thank you

Hey!
You have to go back to EMUI 4.1 by restoring a TWRP backup and then you will update to EMUI 5. Ive used the following process on my CAN-L11 and worked fine. It should work on all models. @virusdunil has followed the same process on his MLA-L03 and everything went fine.
Let me know if you experience some trouble during this process.
Go back to EMUI 4.1 (MM)
1) Download this TWRP backup of MM: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73003510&postcount=60.
2) You can put the backup to internal memory or sdcard, After you've chose where you wanna put it, take a backup of boot.img with TWRP to internal/sdcard (where you wanna put the backup), so you'll get a folder with this structure: TWRP > BACKUPS > FPFDU16A20001907 (you'll have different number I guess). Then you'll put the twrp backup folder (which you have downloaded) in that folder with numbers
3) Boot in TWRP, wipe system, data, cache, dalvik cache from twrp > wipe > advanced and then you restore the backup from TWRP > restore (restore only system + data + boot). Then you reboot and you're good to go.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now update to EMUI 5 (N)
After youve downloaded the stock firmware using Firmware Finder, you should have two files:
- update.zip
- update_data_full_CAN-L11_hw_eu.zip (example)
Backup your internal memory as it will be wiped at step 8).
1) Extract update.zip. Then you get UPDATE.APP.
2) Download Huawei Update Extractor.
3) Open Huawei Update Extractor, choose UPDATE.APP from the folder where youve extracted it. Right click RECOVERY.img and extract it.
4) Now boot your phone in fastboot mode by pressing and holding the power and the volume down buttons at the same time.
5) Type in terminal / command prompt on PC to flash the stock recovery which youve extracted at step 3):
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
.
6) Reboot.
7) Put update.APP in a folder called dload on your sdcard.
8) Dial *#*#2846579#*#* and choose Sofware Upgrade > SDCard Upgrade. Now EMUI 5 will be installed, bootloader gets relocked and internal memory gets wiped. Now wait about 5 mins (maximum 10 mins). If the phone isnt booting within that time, then boot the phone in stock recovery by pressing and holding power and volume up buttons and choose "Wipe data / factory reset" and then "Wipe cache partition". After you reboot, the phone should boot. Skip the setup wizard.
9) Remove update.APP from dload folder from your sdcard and extract the other zip (example update_data_full_CAN-L11_hw_eu.zip) and put all the files/folders extracted in dload folder.
10) Dial *#*#2846579#*#* and choose Sofware Upgrade > SDCard Upgrade.
11) You are done.

Hi robert, i succesfully downgraded to MM and restored (i guess) stock recovery. But when I try to upgrade to nougat via sdcard upgrade the phone can't find the update.zip file.
Maybe the problem is my phone believe he is a CAN instead of a MLA, and don't recognize a MLA update.zip file?

If that is the case, you need to use the firmware extractor and "fastboot flash system system.img" to get your build.prop back. That would get your device to recognize as what it is.

Hey!
I've got your PM, but I see that meanwhile you've posted here and you made a new thread too... You don't have to make so many posts, a post or a thread is enough to get the attention of someone.
In your case, the phone model is MLA-L11 and C185/C432 is the build number as far as I remember. You can check the build number in Settings > About phone. I don't know if there's any other way to check, if you're on other build number now and you don't know which one was yours.

I've managed to backup EMUI 4.1, however I'm getting error message "software install failed" trying to update EMUI to 5.0 (pops up, every time when it reach 5% progress).
Any idea how to fix it?
best regards

Steps #9 and #10 do not work for me ("Software install failed"). But I wonder if they are necessary after all, because Product Id, IMEI, Build-number (and of course EMUI-Version and Android-Version) are stock again.
And isn't "update_full_CAN-L01_hw_eu.zip" supposed to be included in the "update.zip"-file? I thougt "update.zip" allready delivers every part of the ROM.

[HONOR FRD-L02(INDIAN model)] Back to STOCK ROM from any CUSTOM ROM(JIO,volte fix)

FIRSTLY BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP any important data.
Please feel free to share this thread!!
I HARD-BRICKED my honor 8 twice by installing firmware of other regions(us,uk) but being just a noobie I was able to recover my phone. So don't worry take a chill pill:angel::angel:!!
Requirements:
1. Since you are in a custom rom so developer mode will be ON(if not just click build number 9-10 times) , click USB debugging ON.
2. ROOT not necessary but you can do by many apps or by the method of OEM unlocking(command line - Windows Powershell/Command Prompt)
3. Now download these 2 zip files-
http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1190/g79/v90977/f1/full/update.zip
http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/...el_in/update_data_full_FRD-L02_channel_in.zip
4. Copy these zip files to an SD card
5. Now flashing twrp on your phone-
a) download adb files->Press SHIFT and right click-> Windows POWERSHELL-> write adb devices-> see the o/p as number devices
->enter adb reboot bootloader->See the screen of honor 8-> enter fastboot flash recovery twrp.img(download twrp file and rename it as twrp)
->Now plug off from PC-> Format phone-> Install external sd-> flash the zip file-> GO to recovery.
b) e-recovery will come wipe the options(cache,system)
c)REBOOT
You can now enjoy NOUGAT 7.0 with JIO working properly, you are back to home!!!
Thank you.
Wanna appreciate/help through any mode PM me, it will mean a lot to me.

Which build no. is the above ROM? B350?

What do you mean by format phone ? Factory reset from twrp or delete data?

Oem unlocked message will disappear??

Hey dude,
i searched a bit for the correct OEMinfo file to convert
your phone from L21 to L31 version, but your CUST (C185) seem
to be non-existent at the moment...
Sincerely i never seen anyone doing this kind of conversion, but it may work...
Under your responsibility and my guide, you could try to convert it to the European CUST (C432).
If i'm correct, your device is running android 7 and it is single sim, can you confirm this ?
So, if you agree and will not point your finger at me (for a bad scenario), i can tell you how do this.
Cheers

Dude you have to use a custom recovery (TWRP)
to be able to flash a different oeminfo file
and the appropriate firmware.
So you need to unlock your bootloader first.
When you done this come back for the files and the guide...
The European no brand firmware will not lock any sim
and i'm pretty sure your sim will continue to normally work,
but it's your choice, you can ever keep your device as it is...
Cheers

Dude,
you have to not worry about twrp, firmware and oeminfo...
i can provide you those files.
Remove all safeties (pin / pattern / fingerprints),
possibly do a backup of your most important files
as unlocking the bootloader will factory reset your device.
When you're ready I will tell you which files and the guide to convert ...
Cheers

Dude sorry for answering you late,
i'm little busy atm.
THIS is Hassan's 3.1.1-1 recovery, your TWRP;
Your dualSIMC432OEMinfo.zip file;
This is HuRUpdater04 script (zip) file;
The Firmware (latest VNS-L31C432B418),
they are three files;
1 - update .zip;
2 - update_data_full_public .zip;
3 - update_full_VNS-L31_hw_eu .zip;
Let file 1 the same name,
rename file 2 from update_data_full_public TO update_data_public,
rename file 3 from update_full_VNS-L31_hw_eu TO update_all_hw.
Names must mandatory match the ones I wrote, otherwise it won't work.
This is the procedure:
Use your PC, make a folder and rename it L31C432B418.
Copy files 1-2-3 (renamed) and HuRUpdater04.zip file into that folder.
(if you want you can keep the TWRP copying the .img file into that folder too).
Copy the folder into the SD.
Copy the OEMinfo file wherever you want into the SD.
Put the SD into the device...
Reboot into recovery and format DATA
(wipe>advanced wipe>tick data and tap format in the bottom right> type 'yes').
Reboot again recovery and wipe everything except SD
(wipe>advanced wipe>tick everything except sd).
Go in main menu, tap install, find and select OEMinfo file, let it flash...
When finished go in main menu and select REBOOT then Bootloader.
Once booted, connect the phone to your PC and
unlock again the bootloader. (quickly disconnect it from PC)
Device should automatically reboot into the recovery otherwise you can do
holding vol + and power button.
Now tap install, find your L31C432B418 folder,
select (only) HuRUpdater04.zip file and let it flash...
Your device should reboot into the system correctly,
if not (if passes over 15 mins) reboot into the e-recovery and
do a factory reset + wipe cache.
Done !!

i did what you told me using this method https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...ite-upgrade-rebrand-tools-pc-t3778839,ulocked boot loader installed TWRP recovery than used oem info for L31C432 and i download last full ota firmwire for it !!worked fine
thank you for guiding me!! i appreciate your help :victory::victory::good:
