Hi all,
last night I had a good idea of updating to nougat and had a few issues booting.. after I did something (cant remember exactly in nougat twrp) and got stuck in erecovery with no fastboot.
now im booting into a rom after restoring a nougat system.img and just want to go back to square one!
its displaying currently I am on
EMUI 2.0
android 4.3
android security patch lvevel 1st November 2016
build: NRD90M test-keys.
phone is back to locked too.
if I unlock, flash recovery and re-install 6.x stock rom would this work with my android security/firmware level at 1st November 16?
How can I get back to normal from here?
From a very tired stressed out silly guy haha
Thanks!

i have no idea! it states i have 1gb RAM too so i have a feeling the output details on this screen are borked.
Secuirty android version is 2016 november so just ideally would like to confirm if i try flashing 6.x it would work?
or do i need to work out how to downgrade the security version first?

I believe you have to go back to the stock recovery, unroot, and THEN update to MM... but I'm not sure how.

Good to know.
One more question. If I go back to stock recovery and unroot, I should be able to fine the OTA update via the EMUI's updater? (whatever version it is)

After restoring the stock recovery reinstall your current OS and then you should be able to update via the updater app or by the dload method

Btw, another way to update in your situation without losing root, is by using an all-in-one tool like FlashFire:

You should only apply updates with the same Cxxx as yours.I thought that you have C432 from the other guy's post so I'm sorry.
And I've found B210 with C469 so you can update to this first with extracting the recovery from it with Huawei Update Extractor and flashing via fastboot and then updating via dload but i don't know if there's EMUI 4.0 for C469.

Hi,
What happens if you update with the wrong Cxxx?
I just got a used p8 that's got GRA-L09C02B191 on it. I'd like to update it to Android6 before starting to screw around with custom ROMs. I've got FirmwareFinder running, and it's already found 200+ options, none of which appears to be C02, despite that being my range setting. Is my model unupdateable?
TIA!

You will get C900 and won't be able to get OTA updates, themes may not work and Android pay.

Thanks for the lightning fast reply!
That's not so bad, I don't care about themes, don't use Android Pay, and doing the updates manually isn't a huge pain. Is there anything else that I lose? Presumably I'll be able to roll back to gra-l09c02b191 to restore full functionality?
So can I then just go directly for the latest firmware, which I guess is B370?
Thanks!

Hi,
I'm on TWRP, I would like to flash the stock recovery for B560 (Marshmallow) in order to install an OTA update that have just appeared for me. Someone provide me with the file please.
You can find stock recovery in the UPDATE.APP for your device. Unzip it with Huawei update extractor. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454

Use the Huawei Update Extractor to extract the recovery.img from your UPDATE.APP file. Then just flash it using the adb command line and you should be good to go
Thanks guys for your help, I've updated my phone through OTA successfully
Just one question, does the same recovery work with all the builds?
I also would like to know why I'm still on B561 meanwhile there is plenty of users out there on B890 and B88x... I heared there is some people who got EMUI 4.1 already, is there anyway to get it? I'm on North Africa tho.

Yes, same recovery works... I've been using the same old Lollipop recovery till now...
If your didn't get OTA and would like to go to that build then you could always flash your way through.
You can get that too, EMUI 4.1, here the link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/p8l...lution-b890-emui-4-1-dual-sim-t3496502/page10
But the project has been abandoned...
P.S. You'll need to have your bootloader unlocked to flash

Razer Phone 2 got new update today with a lot of improvements. ( that's why i want update)
Build number : P-MR2-SGT-RC002-RZR-190918.3666
The problem is if the phone is rooted it won't update until you restore or flash factory image because uninstall Magisk won't help.
So i flash my phone to 9 Pie and install the new update but i cannot Root it i try many times with no luck.
And the weird thing every time try to root and fail the phone go back to 8.1 Oreo not the 9 Pie !!!

Ok i think the problem is with the slot A/B.
The previous 9 Pie is install on A slot and when you update the update use the B slot.
I Root 9 Pie it show the slot is A.
When i update and try to flash the patched boot.img it show B slot.
also check Magisk says : https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html
Devices with A/B Partitions
Due to the fact that these devices have two separate partitions, it is possible to have the OTA installed to the inactive slot and have Magisk Manager to install Magisk onto the updated partition. The out-of-the-box OTA installation works seamlessly and Magisk can be preserved after the installation.
@khaled1881
Try flashing arter kernel or patched boot image to slot a and b.

Is the Boot image from MR1 same the MR2 ? Because if it is the same i think we can Patch the image and root.
