Download another version of mfastboot, or simply just fastboot, or try from scratch again!
I saw earlier your mfastboot folder has recovery.img, so cannot be a misplace error!
Still check again it is there! Otherwise, do what i wrote in first line!

changelog and FAQs

The bootloader status "Bootloader unlock Allowed: yes" means that you can unlock your bootloader but it isn't unlocked yet.
Only the status "bootloader unlocked yes" means that the bootloader is unlocked.
What I want to say is that the installation of xzdr should always work with "unlock Allowed yes" because it is still locked.
Can you tell us the resulting size of the firmware after running the debloating zip.
Thx for this tut. This should help new user very much.

i dont know what you downloaded but its probably a flashable zip, as far as i know you can only use and install those in Recovery. Thus boot into recovery select install, select your zip and press confirm, delete cache and dalvik afterwards.

hi , I was lasy and skipped downloading and flashing part and installed kingroot 5.2.1 , it is now of system apps and it cant remove it self using unroot, I tried installing old version but always "installation failed", (my power button is crasy , it clicks it self so I remapped it to camera button, using xposed, so flashing it seems like a bad idea), what do you suggest ?
----------------
edit1: I resotred it using xperia companion then I am flashing it now with france nrj using flash tool (the only region with 14.5.A.0.270)....
--------------------
edit 2 : same problems as before, after reboot the root files become read only!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-----------------------
edit 3: I unlocked the bootloader then rooted then installed the recovery , works great, but android 5.0.2 only, so I continued the tuto and updated to the pre rooted android 5.1.1, guess what, lost read again to /root, I mean I cant install xposed and make folders in / and /system for exemple, I am pulling my hair right now, I entered the recovery and wiped data and the phone is stuck at sony logo (nope , not boot loop) bricked? I donnow I am flashing it again now with flashtool to the old 5.0.2 version again , I wasted 2 days now on this ****** new phone , AGHHHH!!!

Ummm....I need a little help please!
Stuck at step 17 . There is no firmware shown. I have downloaded the firmware for my phone, it is a D5503, Xperia Z1 compact in USA. Just for fun, I also downloaded the UK firmware but seems like both give some error after downloading. Please see screenshot below:

[GUIDE] How to upgrade from Marshmallow B510 to B521

It's a pretty straightforward guide. Just follow the guide carefully and you'll be in no time rocking with B521.
This guide is divided into 5 sections. Follow all sections in the order illustrated in the guide.
Optional Step (Recommended) : Flash Stock B510
It is generally a good idea to start from a completely fresh base. Although not necessary, you will however, loose all your data and apps. Backup what is important before following. ​
Flash Stock Recovery (see Step 4 below)
Download B510 from here: https://mega.nz/#!NYgUFYLA!wEEf0f3w_6wxbzr9TYTvTquGBUhsMmRG53G8RSp2xMQ
Copy the Update.APP in the downloaded B510 ROM to dload folder in the root of your external SD card.
Power off your device.
Hold Volume Down, Volume Up and Power buttons simultaneously until you see the Honor logo. Your device will now automatically flash the whole Update.APP
Step 1 : Flashing Custom Recovery (TWRP in this case)
If you are already on TWRP, then skip this section.​Before you follow make sure you have installed Huawei HiSuite and ADB/Fastboot Tools. If not see the links below:
Huawei HiSuite: http://consumer.huawei.com/minisite/HiSuite_en/
ADB and Fastboot: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0LG0AQ4V9FpcXRmV1BmRk1Ta1k
Extract the ADB and Fastboot zip to any preferred location.
Instructions
Download TWRP 3.0.1 Recovery. Head to this thread for download links: http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-4c/development/recovery-twrp-3-0-0-0-huawei-honor-4c-t3349495 Copy the downloaded recovery to the folder where you have extracted ADB and Fastboot tools.
Power off your device.
Now while holding Volume Down button attach your device to computer via USB cable. Your device will now automatically switch to Fastboot mode.
In the folder where Recovery and Fastboot tools are present, hold down left shift button and simultaneously press Right mouse button. In the dropdown menu, select Open Command Window here.
Switch to the Command Prompt window and type:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery_name.img
Replace recovery_name with the downloaded recovery's file name.
You have successfully installed TWRP :victory:
Step 2 : Enable Local OTA Update option in Marshmallow
In Marshmallow, Huawei has removed the option to flash OTA updates and Update.APP through the Local Update. Lets get that option back!​Credits to this section goes to OXALIS at 4pda.ru for making the patch to enable Local Update option in Huawei Update app.
Download the Huawei Update patch from this link: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0LG0AQ4V9FpUXUybmFZeTVXNDg Copy it to either your device's internal memory or a SD card.
Power off your device.
Hold Power and Volume Up buttons simultaneously to boot your device to recovery.
Install the zip downloaded in the first step though TWRP.
Step 3 : Removing Root
If your device is currently not rooted and is completely stock, you can skip this section.​
Before you follow make sure you have installed Huawei HiSuite and ADB/Fastboot Tools. If not see the links below:
Huawei HiSuite: http://consumer.huawei.com/minisite/HiSuite_en/
ADB and Fastboot: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0LG0AQ4V9FpcXRmV1BmRk1Ta1k
Extract the ADB and Fastboot zip to any preferred location.
Removing Root
Download Stock Marshmallow boot image from here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0LG0AQ4V9FpY1lBVF9ubFdOSXM Copy it to the folder where you have extracted ADB and Fastboot.
Power off your device.
Now while holding Volume Down button attach your device to computer via USB cable. Your device will now automatically switch to Fastboot mode.
In the folder where Recovery and Fastboot tools are present; hold down left shift button and simultaneously press Right mouse button. In the dropdown menu, select Open Command Window here.
Switch to the Command Prompt window and type:
Code:
fastboot flash boot stock_boot_mm.img
Open SuperSU app and click on "Full Unroot" in Settings.
Your device is now unrooted.
Q. Why not just click the 'Unroot" option in SuperSU app?
Although that would work as it does the same the same thing described above i.e. replace patched ramdisk with stock backup, if the backup isn't present (such as you made a Factory Reset), your ramdisk will remain patched even though unrooted. It's good idea to revert to Stock boot.img if you ever need to root again.
Step 4 : Flashing Stock Recovery
It has been literally mentioned a thousand times that you can't flash official ROMs and OTAs through a custom recovery (such as TWRP). You have to be on Stock Recovery.​
Before you follow make sure you have installed Huawei HiSuite and ADB/Fastboot Tools. If not see the links below:
Huawei HiSuite: http://consumer.huawei.com/minisite/HiSuite_en/
ADB and Fastboot: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0LG0AQ4V9FpcXRmV1BmRk1Ta1k
Extract the ADB and Fastboot zip to any preferred location.
Instructions
Download the Marshmallow Stock EMUI Recovery from here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0LG0AQ4V9FpbldwYWExOGNTUTQ Copy the recovery to the location where you have extracted ADB and Fastboot tools.
Power off your device.
Now while holding Volume Down button attach your device to computer via USB cable. Your device will now automatically switch to Fastboot mode.
In the folder where Recovery and Fastboot tools are present; hold down left shift button and simultaneously press Right mouse button. In the dropdown menu, select Open Command Window here.
Switch to the Command Prompt window and type:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery stock_recovery_mm.img
You have successfully installed Stock Recovery :victory:
Step 5 : Updating to B521
Download the B521 OTA zip from here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxgU9yQssu83NTJ6eFBseS1ET3c/view?pref=2&pli=1 (Credits goes to vit755 at 4pda.ru)
Rename the downloaded zip to update.zip and copy it to dload folder in the root of your external SD card.
In your device, open Settings and tap on Update.
Tap the Menu button and then Local Update
Tap the Incremental Update option.
Your device will now reboot to install the update.
Tada! You're done! (Hit thanks if you found this guide useful)

It worked. Now on B521.
Thanks bro

Can anyone provide the changelog for this? is it worth installing over b510?

The CHC-U01 will not work. You have to manually upgrade to B510 first.
The most easiest method is to downgrade to C636B330 and upgrade to B510.

Finally, B521

Stuck with worst version
Hello guys, I am here in Pakistan. Few months ago I tried to update my honor 4c to MM but as you know MM is not available for Pakistan officially.
Someone at xda gave me a version of Honor 4c Marshmallow which was build B502.
I installed and it had so many flaws, now I am unable to downgrade or even upgrade it to any other version.
My build number is CHM-U01C185B502
I need help to downgrade this to KitKat or upgrade it to MM B521 or latest.
I am so disappointed that even I want to throw this phone away or sell it anytime.
Please help me!

Xiaomi Redmi 2 2014811 bricked after updating SuperSu binary in recovery?

I'm not rly good with electronics etc, my phone came with root access permissions via Security MIUI app so I installed SuperSu to manage it easier (MIUI app reqiured to manually check each app to allow access), no custom ROM or anything installed, the way it happened was
1. updated supersu from google play
2. entered supersu app,it asked me to update su binary
3. I clicked yes through recovery
4. it rebooted and got bootlooped.
It's stuck at the "mi.com" screen when turning on, can't go into recovery, fastboot mode only shows an image of Miui mascot without any fastboot options. I've followed some tutorials online and got the thing below from minimal adb.

Fastboot will show that android icon only.
No fastboot options will be available there.
Now you need to perform some steps to recover your device..
Note - Your data will be wiped. Also, remove memory card (if any).
Now let's start the process -:
Download MIUI Fastboot ROM file.
Here's the link..
1GB RAM model - http://update.miui.com/updates/v1/fullromdownload.php?d=wt88047_global&b=F&r=global&n=
2GB RAM model - http://update.miui.com/updates/v1/fullromdownload.php?d=wt88047_pro_global&b=F&r=global&n=
Also extract this file and put in C Drive.
Now turn your PC on..
And install latest Mi flash tool. http://api.bbs.miui.com/url/MiFlash
Turn your device off. By pulling battery. (Assuming that your device is in bootloop).
Go to fastboot mode (power + volume down)
Now turn your PC on.
Open Mi flash tool.
Connect your device.
Click on refresh button in flash tool.
Now, it will show some random numbers. (This is your device).
Now, select your ROM fastboot file which you downloaded and extracted.
After that, choose 'flash all' and click Flash..
It will take some time.
After that your device will be rebooted.
Voila! Your device is back to life!

This is a dload firmware which works on every DUK-L09C432 with EMUI9.0.
Simply put the dload folder in the root of your microsd, power off the phone and boot it again with all 3 buttons (vol+/- and pwr) pressed for 5-8s.
Voila, it should start installing the new firmware.

quite strange.. since i'm on Android 9 i can't enter fastboot mode anymore!(smartphone is fully working.. rooted , unlocked )
i tried trough adb "adb reboot fastboot "
also by button sequence..
honor 8 pro just restart ...
anything i could do?
P.S. just tried... even recovery is not working!! so i can just use ADB commands but can't boot in recovery or fastboot

connect the phone to pc, keep vol- pressed directly after pressing restart on the phone, it should enter fastboot now.
"adb reboot recovery" should work though.
Regards

thank you, I'm gonna try tonight ...
I'm afraid that recovery somehow "disappeared" lol.. when I update from oreo to pie and I changed it to twrp to install magisk! anyway tonight I try, if I get in fast boot I can install recovery (this time pie stick recovery, so I can update to 9.1..cuase if I try "dload" now it just reboot..)

YES ! like that it worked !!! thank you
[EDIT]
so what i want to do is:
fastboot boot recovery.img BUT is not rebooting in recovery( and not loading it )
but it gives me this error: downloading "boot.img" so it's ignoring my command of booting with recovery.img
i've got stock recovery from UPDATE.app file of my actual rom ( 9.0.1.175 )
i didn't want to "install" the recovery cause i'm not sure it's the right file ... : (i've choosen recovery_ramdis.img)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
is that the right one? in that case i can just install it .. cvause at the moment i can't reboot in any recovery !
[EDIT SOLUTION]
so since anyone could have my doubts ... here it is my " solution !
at the end i did install stock recovery ( which was RECOVERY_RAMDIS.img got from update.app and extracted by huawei update extractor)
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdis.img
than i use
fastboot reboot
and since i had the installation package already in my smartphone it went directly into UPDATING status ( through emui update program )
took less than 5 minutes to update to this latest EMUI 9.1.0.210
and 2/ 3 minutes for honor 8 pro to reboot.. and i had to change my underwear LOL !
at the moment i've lost root ... but probably i can get it back in the same way as i did with previous PIE !

LAST UPDATE ( check my other thread ) .. i could install EMUI 9.1.0.210 and ROOT It !
all working thank you @OldDroid for earlier support and doubts cleaning lol !
whoever wants to root EMUI 9.1.0.210 i made a step to step in Emui 9 with Root Honor 8 pro ( tested by myself ...root 100% working ! ) July 2019 thread!

hey
i have a duk l09c432b183 on emui 5.1
does this firmware works for me and how ?

Please I need your answer cause I don't want to brick my phone
So can someone tell me how to e
