I used fastboot to install the stock recovery which i got form:
http://www.rootjunkysdl.com/?device=Huawei P8 Lite&folder=Firmware
I used these links to do it:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UN7XW4HnFT8
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YfWYKREeQeQ
And then installed the offical rom through the stockrecovery by putting the dload folder on my micro-SD
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/huawei-p8-p8-lite-stock-rom-firmware-t3176374
For some reason all apps and things were still on my phone afterwards, i hope it will help you.

Some Updates can't be installed over the b136.
The german b170 (a partial update) needs the b132 or the b133 to upgrade to b170. Directly update from b136 to b170 isn't possible

I have two Ale_21.
One is stock and never modified and went from 136 to 170 without problems.
The problem is with the other "modified phone", in some way I think ota detects
it was modified before and gives error.

Could you please be a little more specific?
You mean you downloaded stockrecovery.img form here
Code:
rootjunkysdl.com/files/Huawei%20P8%20Lite/Firmware/stockrecovery.img
? And then you startet the phone in fastboot mode with the command
Code:
adb reboot bootlader
? Last you send the command
Code:
fasboot flash recovery stockrecovery.img
?
I already regret installing TWRP since I can't even try to install further Updates via dload. So I just don't want to make any more mistakes and/or brick the phone.
@Schwedenbitter
Yes that's pretty much what I have done.
You need to have the right version in order to install via update
From where i can get stock recovery for marshmallow b550, because every recovery i try stuck on 90 or 5%. I tried also to extract update.app b550 and it also fail

No you need to extract it with huawei update extractor to get the recovery.img
And you need to install it with fastboot.

That because your sd card is in read only mod,but you can make a full.backup using twrp,from my point is better than titanium backup
I want to downgrade my phone from 6 to 5 but I don't have PC to recover TWRP so I ask everyone can send me system boot and cust imagies? I will appreciate that!
You have to flash transition firmware first otherwise you'll lose your IMEI.
P.s not worth downgrading.

1. Extract cust image from transition firmware with Huawei Update Extractor.
2. Put your phone into fastboot mode (rescue).
3. Flash that cust.IMG
4. Reboot device.
5. Local update to any android 5 rom in Updater app

This is alot easier because only thing you have to do is flash the file, and done! I my case your method doesn't work, it don't mean it won't work at all, but some phones are dumb and don't want to accept new Cust file!
Why would you want to downgrade? Stock Marshmallow works great...
Hi guys, i was trying to restore my device from a custom rom to the stock version following the restoring and the rebranding guide of the thread on the forum about it. In conclusion:
-everytime i try the dload method (with the nocheck recoveries) the update stops at 5% with "uncompatible version".
-Once i finally installed the B182 version, the camera didn't work and the system was unstable, maybe for some error in the Vendor package.
-I also tried to flash the images of cust userdata system and boot but no results
My idea was to restore the B130 and then to update by emui to b182.
Can anyone solve this big problem?
(SORRY for the english, I'm Italian)
Try the restoring guide by OldDroid
I followed that guide, but nothing. Can anyone give me a Nandroid backup of european stock version?
If you have the update.app file , use Huawei update extractor to get recovery and recovery2 IMG files, flash them using fastboot commands .
Then try to place ROM file in dload , use vol up+ down and power button to flash it.

So the version of the firmware is not relevant for the dload method ? I mean, it doesn't matter if I've installed the B182 and in dload i put the 130 one?

Already tried, no results. I really don't understand why i tried every single method in this guide, also used by other users, but without any success. Every single time it stops at 5% with dload or it goes in bootloop with flashed images from lower firmwares of 182.
My last idea was finding a Nandroid backup of stock version and the restore it from TWRP. But obviously I couldn't find it.

Hello, i’m looking for the update file for my phone. I’m currently on EMUI 4.1, to which i foolishly downgraded to last weekend. I would like to update with the SD Card and dload folder method, but i can’t find the stock EMUI 5 rom anywhere.

Thanks, i tried method 3 first but it failed (i have an unlocked bootloader though), so then i tried method 1 (i had twrp from meticulus already installed) first went to install only the update.zip in twrp, it failed, but when i rebooted, the phone is now updated to emui 5. Also my build number is now the test keys nonsense, but that happened to me before and i know how to fix that.
Thanks, your guide worked.

Install TWRP for Nougat, e.g. this one:
3.1.0.2
Install it over eRecovery with command
fastboot flash recovery2 xxxxxxx.img
Copy to the SD card the second file - hw_eu.zip from B370.
Boot into TWRP, click WIPE, then FORMAT DATA , after REBOOT SYSTEM.
The smartphone will start rebooting: as soon as the technical menu appears on the screen (yellow warning) press and hold Volume Up up to 3 sec, and here you are in TWRP again.
Click INSTALL and flash update_data_full_VNS-L21_hw_eu.zip.
Reboot into stock Recovery and do factory reset.
