I apologize for being blunt, and I do appreciate what developers do. I am only looking for real answer. Still did not get one.

Thank you and again, my apologies for sounding rude.

Your link still does not answer anything. Just same old "you will have problems if you mix recoveries". Based on my experience trying all ROMs here I believe that problem is not with recovery itself but with the fact that Huawei made it impossible to downgrade from KK to JB, and that is where people brick their phones. Huawei did provide solution for the problem.

Anyways, sorry again...and thank you.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] surdu_petru:
Hi!

I already encountered this problem in my Asus TF300T - So I speak from experience and not just "it seem" or "so I think" ;)

What you do not understand here, is that I have some responsibility here compared with you - I have here for P6 , some custom ROMs and recovery made by me - and one of the main concerns is that they do not adversely affect in any respect the devices. In the past I made some custom roms and kernels for other device like : Archos Gen9, Asus TF300T , Motorola XT910 & Sony Z - and I not even managed to ruin a device - because always I provided useful and accurate installation steps.

Because I don't want anyone to come to complain , because his device was bricked using my Installation steps - I maintain my view regarding the use of these tools called TWRP, and I'll repeat once again that this mode is correct and safe.

Also you can use what you want and how you want, as long as you respond for your device.

Good luck :o

can i flash 2.7.* recovery to U06 with latest offical KK ? and is there any way to backup stock recovery as i already have check on p6 fastboot boot recovery.img is not possible remotly

Regards
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] surdu_petru:
Yes , you can use TWRP 2.7.0.0 for KitKat !

If you want your stock recovery, first you should root your device and than push to internal/external sdcard0/1 :

Help me please problem huawei ascend p6

Greetings friend I have a Huawei ascend p6 bought 15 days ago, two days ago I installed the 4.4.2 version B014 kitkat I was doing very well but without the gapps ...! (Do not succeeded) searching google not as I ended inthe post Barjola which has a script that installs gapps but deletes some unnecessary apps from the rom, but I realized too late it was for version 4.2.2 rom Boo Boo ... uff! because the next reboot the phone lit in Chinese language and each time generating errors keyboard, google etc play. Finally it occurred to me I do wipe delete everything but all it is, I wipe data, cache, dalvik, system. etc and I left without OS. After that I tried a thousand times to install a new rom and I could not.

copy the folder dload 4.4.2 B014 rom to sd and it did not work, I've done more than 10 times, stays in checking module and then pulls the system failed this is with stock recovery. through fastboot update ROM.zip not tell me that the zip roms. contain the android-info.txt file. by TWRP RECOVERY flash and gives me error E: UNABLE TO OPEN ZIP FILE.

The truth is I'm desperate ayudaaaaaa q ...

Interesting thing is that when you start telling me the stock recovery ro.build.version = 4.4.2

ro.product.name = UEDGE

but below me says:

current build version 4.2.2 release is not, do not need move

q is not really happening.

by the way I have open bootloader.

Looks like you need to install the middle step in order to get back to 4.2.2, and if you like to learn about it search the generals,questions and troubleshooting subforums to find the proper steps.

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] bokchoi2020:
I think he means the issue that when in twrp recovery you can't mount internal storage as usb.

I tried mounting external storage, it works. It's just the internal storage that can't mount when in twrp recovery.

that's what I meant :)
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] surdu_petru:

There are two ways to do that:

1. Flash the .zip in recovery no need to wipe anything, next reboot in recovery the recovery will be 2.1.0.0

Hello !

Does not matter in what version of recovery you are, custom or stock .

Just install in bootloader by this command : fastboot flash recovery custom_recovery.img .

Good luck !

But when i want to go into recovery my phone stuck on huawei logo, this with the free button method or with the adb command !!!!

What the porblem ? And what can i do ?

Thank's
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] surdu_petru:
Hello!

Thanks for info....

I'll take a look soon to see what's happening.

TWRP wasn't tested in this way, maybe was something changed on B511 .

At this time you can only try to flash stock recovery from B510 to be able to boot on stock recovery .... or you can wait my solutions ( will be here in a few days ).

Good luck.

Just found a great TWRP theme here. There are a lot of additonal customizations, like color chooser for the different elements, center clock, back button on right and so on.

Direct link - here

Instructions:

1.Download the theme and rename it to "ui.zip".

2.On internal SD card open TWRP folder and create a folder called "theme", without capital letters.

3.Copy ui.zip to theme folder.

4.Restart to recovery.

You just need to use adb and follow the steps from the first post. You don't need any .zip or .img on your phone,

just the openrecovery-twrp-2710.img on your computer in order to flash it via adb.

my android ver is 4.2.2 so im not sure that is kitkat.. thats explain the problem.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] WisdomSeeker:
No at the moment you have Jelly Bean installed.

Follow this steps to get Kitkat:

But instead of B510, I would recommend downloading the B512 and just follow method A not B so you don´t confuse there ;)

sry of all the quastions, its really intresting me.

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] WisdomSeeker:
Thanks a lot !

You can detect whether you have installed stock or twrp or so by doing this:

(BUT BEFORE MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE NO DLOAD FOLDER ON YOUR SD OR INTERNAL STORAGE WITH AN UPDATE.APP FILE INCLUDED. OTHERWISE YOU WOULD MAYBE FLASH A FIRMWARE WHICH YOU DON´T WANT AT THE MOMENT! )

You can install stock recovery doing this:

There is only one TWRP for KK. The other downloads are the stock recoverys.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] FSRider:
I have a litlle question :o

For flash twrp recovery with adb.. the phone needs to run a KK rom.

Here's the question: the installation works with all KK roms (like B512, B510), or must be on a chinese KK version?

I'm a bit confused, because somewhere i've read that only with chinese firmware it's possible to flash custom recovery :eek:
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] surdu_petru:
Hello!

You can install/flash TWRP on any Huawei Firmware KitKat.

We used Chinese Firmware for unlock bootloader... but you should check your bootloader to be unlocked before flash twrp.

If is already unlocked you don't need to flash any Chinese Firmware.

Also you can found on General section how you can unlock bootloader without flash Chinese Firmware.

Best regards!

After doing "adb reboot bootloader", any fastboot command says "waiting for device

Hi,

I have recently got an Ascend P6 and I have upgraded it from B108 all the way to B635 (is is a Turkish release, but it works fine in Germany).

I want to replace the stock bootloader with TWRP, but after installing all the drivers (I tried both the Hisuite program and the separate drivers) I can issue the "adb reboot bootloader" command, but then I cannot run any fastboot command (e.g. fastboot flash image or fastboot oem-unlock). When I do, it says "waiting for device".

I tried in both a Windows 8.1 and Windows 7 machine with the same results.

Is there something I am missing or is this because of my phone (when I was doing the updates using the "update.app" method I could see the text "this is a secureboot phone" and "is in LOCK state")

Thank you,

atzakas
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] cacash:
I can install it from TWRP 2.6.3.0
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] blueIBI:
[MENTION=305392]atzakas[/MENTION]: yes..you need to unlock your bootloader first before you can replace the recovery..

when you have entered the bootloader you have to enter "fastboot unlock oem UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU" (or oem unlock - not sure what at first)..

then maybe you should be able to flash a custom recovery..
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] tileeq:
Depends on your system, because if you are using 4.2 - jellybean then you first should upgrade to 4.4 kitkat and then flash the newest twrp.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dberthia:
Hopefully simple question. I'm presently using the temp root method on my otherwise stock M7. If I go to S-OFF and permanent root, will I still be able to receive OTAs, or do I need to restore one or both to get the OTAs?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Crawshayi:
As long as you have the stock recovery you should be able to get OTAs, and you might also need to unroot. Why in the world you would want to actually get an OTA is beyond me though, they're full of bloat and unrooted. You're much better off waiting for a developer to release a stock rom.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dberthia:
Yeah- I'm leaning toward a ROM. Just want to make sure I have all the information before I do anything rash. Thanks.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Crawshayi:
Basically the way it works is as long as you keep your phone S-Off you can do pretty much anything. That doesn't mean you SHOULD do anything, as flashing something incorrect can potentially brick your phone, but if you follow the directions on the rom of choice you won't have any issues.

I try to then Move this downloaded file to my external sd card and get the same error I would on day 1 of this device completely stock.

Am I missing something here? I have S-Off, supersu.zip flashed via cwm recovery installed so have full root, and even went a step further and flashed the unlocked stock kernal for full write access???

Also, in a perfect world I want everything I do such as downloads and screenshots taken go to my external sd card, not internal. I now have the HTC stock internet app and in settings I have it set for downloads to go to external sd card. Does this work? Haven't tried it yet.

Anyway to get screenshots I take to save in external sd card? Basically only thing I want installed on internal storage is apps I download and obviously tweaks and what not. Don't want to waste internal space with what can be saved by default to my 64gb external sd card. Appreciate any help on any of the above, thank you.
