[Huawei Ascend P7] M4t3s:
Hello,

I ran into pretty special thing. My father has bought Ascend P7 L00 from China. It is working all right, apart from one thing. I do not know what my dad was thinking, but he flashed CWM from OPPO to his brand new P7. Phone can boot into Android, is working pretty stable, but I was not able to boot fastboot or recovery itself. Therefore, I have no chance to flash stock or even unofficial TWRP. Dad's colleague has exact same phone, with same android version (both are runnin EMUI 2.5., I guess). Is there any way to use some files from colleague's phone and copy them into the dad'd P7 to get the recovery or at least fastboot bootable for PC? When I manage to get it communicate with PC, then I can get on my own flashing e.g. TWRP. Adb is working ok, but with that I cannot flash anything. Do any of you know what could be done about this issue? I was in touch with the vendor, they sent full ROM to flash, but since fastboot is not gonna boot, the file is for nothing. They send 1.1G update.app file.

Please let me know anything what could at least slightly help.

Thanks

Hello,

if your Dad's colleague has exact same phone and is rooted

you can use Partition Backup & restore to save the partitions you need and restore it on your phone...
[Huawei Ascend P7] M4t3s:
Hi, yes, both are exactly the same, of course with the serial number differences :)

Thanks for the suggestion, we will try it.

Hi,

Current Configuration

1. Recovery : CWM Recovery

2. Device: XT1033 Indian Variant

3. Android Version: 4.4.4

4. ROM: Stock

5. Root Status: Rooted

I'm trying to install OTA vai cwm recovery but it's giving me following error.

Package expects build fingerprint of motorola/falcon_asia_ds/falcon_umtsds:4.4.4/KXB21.14-L1.40/34:user/release-keys or motorola/falcon_asia_ds/falcon_umtsds:5.0.2/LXB22.46-28/30:user/release-keys; this device has motorola/falcon_retbr_ds/falcon_umtsds:4.4
E:Error in /cache/Blur_Version.210.12.40.falcon_umtsds.AsiaRetail.en.03.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.

I'm stuck here since last 3-4 hours

Today Issue got resolved.

Steps I Followed.

Flashed Stock Firmware and all

Use this

If you want to preserve your Media and settings

Don't execute this

Then simply put your OTA in SD Card and install it from stock recovery.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indrasatrya:
you must using stock recovery
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ant24x7:
So is there any other way that i can install this OTA. Without messing above configuration ? :confused:
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pfufle:
Flash the stock recovery . Unroot your phone (there is an option in SuperSU). Flash OTA update through stock recovery. To root again, flash philz recovery, reboot from recovery. You will get an option to disable recovery flash and install SU binaries. Choose yes for both and install SuperSU from the playstore. You will be on rooted 5.0.2 now.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anooj21m:
today i downloaded the ota and while it was being insatalled about 25 % the screen displayed "error" and the device booted up and it said update unsuccessful....

what to do.......... unlocked bootloader + UNrooted moto g xt1033....
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pfufle:
Reflash the ASian XT1033 4.4.4 firmware and try again. There are numerous guides regarding this OTA flashing business in the general section. You might want to check them out.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ant24x7:
Thanks for reply! I'll try this today.

Meanwhile I tried following and installed cm12 it worked.

1. format all partitions except /sd/media

2. Flashed cm11 with gapps

3. Faced Boot animation loop (Please some explain why ? :confused:)

4.Flashed CM12 (It Worked using it now)
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ant24x7:
Okay I tried these steps.

First Flashed Stock Recovery

Unroot from Supersu

Tried flashing OTA update through recovery but same error.

Any suggestion!
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] woozie.2007:
flash the stock firmware with stock recovery, stock 4.4.4 dual sim asia retail
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ant24x7:
After flashing Firmware is there any chances of data loss ?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] woozie.2007:
yes, the phone will be like new
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ant24x7:
Wait I know i'm asking questions like a noob. But data loss means

/data/media This partition will also get affected :confused:
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] woozie.2007:
why you dont save all on your pc? after that flash a clean stock 4.4.4
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ant24x7:
But Already I'm on Stock ROM with Stock Recovery and Device is unrooted.

Do I still need to flash KitKat Firmware ?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] woozie.2007:
is recomended to do a factory reset before a clean install, if you dont want to do this, you can try to flash without factory reset, but if the flash fail, you must do a factory reset....when you root the phone some libs files is modified
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ant24x7:
Found these steps on other thread to Flash Stock 4.4.4

My Doubt is second last step where it says erase userdata. Does it wipe out my media partition too ?

mfastboot.exe flash partition gpt.bin
mfastboot.exe flash motoboot motoboot.img
mfastboot.exe flash logo logo.bin
mfastboot.exe flash boot boot.img
mfastboot.exe flash recovery recovery.img
mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
mfastboot.exe flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot.exe erase modemst1
mfastboot.exe erase modemst2
mfastboot.exe flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot.exe erase cache
mfastboot.exe erase userdata
mfastboot.exe reboot
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] woozie.2007:
yes, will erase all
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ant24x7:
Thanks! Backing up Entire phone. Will update here after flashing.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pfufle:
Skip the second last step if you don't want to bother backing your phone up.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ant24x7:
You saved my lots of time!

I flashed stock firmware without erasing userdata. And it worked. Now successfully updated to 5.0.2. With my all Media and settings preserved.:laugh::laugh:

Thanks a ton!:D:D
