Hello, and sorry for my English.
I flashed a TWRP on my Huawei P10 lite, and I want to know if I still can install official upgrades without any issues.
Thanks.

Thanks, but I mean install the upgrades via Settings > System Update, that would brick my phone? Thanks again

I know that if you install twrp in recovery1 then you will not get an update.
If you have a root phone, you will not even get it.
If you install twrp in recovery2 and do not root, you will receive the update and the update will overwrite the twrp.

Hello. I downloaded the upgrade and when I tried to install it the TWRP sent an error message (I don't remember which one). Yesterday I was able to install the stock recovery, but I don't know what I did wrong that I had to drain the battery out just to get out from the logo screen before the boot animation, and now I can enter into eRecovery.

hmmmm okay guys.. thanks for the info... when we will be getting atleast android 5.1!!
Doesn't look like we're going to get 5.1, the update schedule has us going straight to Marshmallow in early 2016
I am on 1.88.707.1 and have rooted my M9+ and have TWRP 2.8.7.0 recovery installed with S-ON (I installed Sunshine and it passed the tests and S-off can be done but I haven't.)
I also got this update notification, and downloaded it. But now, after the first reboot, it boots into TWRP and I have no clue how to apply this update.
Is there a way I can flash (only) stock recovery? How do I go about it? Can someone please help?

You can't do an OTA update with a custom recovery. Root is irrelevant.

You have to restore stock B29 recovery. You can't accept an OTA with TWRP.

It still fails. After restarting device it boots into installing screen with miFavor logo instead of TWRP. The processing bar runs to about 24% then stops to reboot. I notice that the log at bottom screen say mismatch. And I got message system update package does not match the phone.

You have to install it in stock recovery. Put it on your FAT32 sdcard and then in stock recovery select "Apply update from sdcard".

I got following message at bottom left of screen
Supported API: 3
Sorry, you can't sd upgrade
I think you have to enable OEM unlock in developer options, first. Then, you can install B29 via SDCard.

Thanks. I forgot to unzip the file and put it in the root of sd card and I have done what you said too. It is running installation now.
I'm failing now? I went from ZAD v.3 back to stock B29 (I have an unlocked bootloader). I do have the MiFavor recovery (not TWRP)
I got the notification there was an upgrade, it took 6 hours to download... but the update "failed". I tried applying the update via SD card, but I get about 32% in and says "Update failed"......It also lists "Status 8" and "system partition has unexpected contents".
Sounds like y'all are having a hell of a time between the slow OTA speeds and then getting it to actually flash.
So I think I'll hold off for now. Hopefully we can get some TWRP-flashable zips soon enough... I think DrakenFX is already busy with all that
You guys are making this way too complicated.
The full B29 firmware will flash just fine with twrp.
Only OTA *updates* require the stock recovery. The difference is the update patches existing files while the full firmware contains full partition images.
Be aware if you download the full b29 firmware from zte, it will also replace your recovery and bootloader. You won't be able to flash recovery from the bootloader/fastboot screen then. Also, it wipes all your data.
DrakenFX put out a modified version of the full firmware file which doesn't modify the bootloader. I believe it also leaves the recovery intact.
After flashing official A2017U B29 firmware from ZTE the signal network service is lost. I ignore this and continue to upgrade to Nougat successfully and I get lost signal. I notice that Dual Sim Setting is working. Does official firmware overwrite original chinese baseband/bootstack? Can someone please upload chinese baseband/bootstack A2017 please?

No more complicated than it's turned out to be....
I followed DrakenFX's guide to B29 stock... The Nougat OTA downloaded, in 6 hours, but failed. So, I tried the SD card method, and it also failed at 32%.
Not sure what else I can do? Just wait for DrakenFX to make ZAD v.4 is my plan for now since I already wasted about 11 hours trying to upgrade today, and another 3 restoring back 6.0.1 and all my apps.

No problem upgrading using the OTA on an sdcard here. Flashed the draken stock_system zip, then fastboot flashed the B29 stock recovery. Reboot to recovery (which is now stock) and update from sd card. If you've messed with other partitions, you may need to flash more B29 .img's.

How to update modded os to Nougat

I tried rooting my phone and decided to downgrade my os from 7.0.1 to 6.0.1 I downloaded and flashed a modded version of 6.0.1 and now my device is not rooted and i can't update my phone to nougat. It keeps showing the not recognizing package error what do i do?
I haven't modded mine so just guessing but if you have twrp I expect it won't update.
Most phones need stock recovery to take an update. Not modding mine for this reason. I think Android 8 will come for A7.

is there a way for me to remove twrp and get stock recovery?
Haven't looked into modding the Axon 7, mine stays standard. Have a look around the forum here, do a search. Maybe someone who knows will join in to help you.

Yes there are many. You can:
-use a backup of the recovery, via axon7tool ('axon7tool -r recovery' backs up your recovery)
-flash a full stock system image through MiFlash
-flash a stock recovery zip through twrp, then reboot (there are recovery zips for the G on the download center, although there may be zips made for the U and Chinese)

sorry, I was inactive for a while. Yes, it worked, I flashed with success and updated but when I tried to reflash twrp the terminal say "flash failed" "permission denied" or something. I tried to relock and unlock bootloader but nothing...
Hi everyone, recently I downloaded the latest update from huawei system updater and then I wanted to flash it with flashfire but when it restarts it says "check_write_data_to_partition,write data error" and "update_huawei_pkg_from_ota_zip: update package from zip failed" then it reboot normaly without system changes, what can I do?
edit:
in the head of the log it says olso:
"mountencrypt: failed to mount /data: success"
It's pretty ambiguous...

can not update

I have a P9 lite VNS-L31C432B412 dual sim. It is rooted with TWRP. Super su installed.
When I click on 'update', my huawei p9 lite offers me to upgrade to version B414. I currently have version B412.
I accept the 'quick update' he offers me.
The mobile reboot on TWRP and there a red line with: error 7.
I would like to know where are the TWRP error logs stored?
And I would also like to know what to do?
Thank you
