Having trouble going back to stock emui

Hello, I'm having difficulty going back to stock EMUI 4.1 on my Honor 6x. I've tried various things and they haven't worked. I've attempted doing the SD Card dload method and I've tried using twrp to flash the update.zip but both have not worked. I'm on Android 6.0.1 https://xdaforums.com/honor-6x/development/rom-resurrection-remix-m-5-7-4-berlin-t3551705 (link to the rom). All help would be appreciated I've really got myself into a pickle; my data usage is messed up and my texting and calling is all wack.

I think I'm supposed to use dload but not sure how. I have the US model BLN-L24 if that helps -

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=73954487&postcount=240

I followed this guide but after getting to 5% the update fails.

Guys, I wanted to go back to EMUI 5 stock (BLN-L24C567B366) but I got stock flashing the BOOT, RECOVERY, and SYSTEM images, fastboot shows

I looked up for that and seems because the PC is not communicating with fastboot maybe due to drivers or disabled USB Debugging, what can I do to recover my phone? Help please

Edit: I can still access TWRP if that helps.

Help going back to stock.

Hello usually in not as bad at this stuff but I'm having great difficulty going back to stock emui. I'm on an android marshmallow rom right now which is emui 4.1 as far as I know and I have tried downloading the update. App file in putting in root of SD card but whenever I try to restore I only get to 5% and get a message among the lines of can't locate update file. I think the problem is that im downloading the wrong update file but am not sure how to find my build number. I followed the dload guide but had no success going back to stock. Honor 6x USA BLN-L24
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] SRI HARI RAJAN:
If ur phone is turning on go to settings and find ur build number. If not then go to honor official site and look for ur device's Android 7 nougat and use that to update via dload method. Mostly try to use a good sdcard of class 10 bcoz sometimes sdcard maybe faulty.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] unknownshoe:
My sdcard isn't faulty but that could be why it isn't working. I've tried using the update.app you've suggested and it didn't work perhaps I should get a new sd card and try? Is there any other way I can go back to stock?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] SRI HARI RAJAN:
Is ur phone rooted and running on twrp?....... I honestly don't know what to do if that is the case. I hope someone helps u
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] unknownshoe:
Phone is rooted and has twrp recovery
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] SRI HARI RAJAN:
Then i suggest u to change to custom recovery... I guess after that updating to nougat might work
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] shashank1320:
Flash stock recovery or just use dload method and it will be pure stock.

There ia dload guide in my signature

I DON'T have stock rom back up.

1st tried to update via Firmwarefinder but that was not my model.

mine is (Bll-l21C464B125)[emui 4.1]the one I tried was (Bll-L21C185 [emui5]something)

I lost updater and themes wasn't working,also NRD-M90 test keys show up as build number

Later I installed custom rom (elite rom)

Here comes the big mistake:

I tried to update via firmwarefinder again...

After this my phone did not started anymore

I couldn't restore my costum rom back up

Can't factory reset, can't format data (not with twrp or stock recovery)

Okay this is the problem:

Failed to mount vendor

Failed to mount product

Failed to mount versiyon

My question is will debranding work to fix or do I have to wipe boot,recovery, system,product, vendor via fastboot and flash .img files???
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] unknownshoe:
still screwed up

I flashed the update.app that I got off of the Honor support site (http://www.hihonor.com/us/support/search-result/index.html?keywords=Honor%206X%20Firmware) and this seemed to have worked, but after sleeping the device the display is now black. It's weird because if I hold down the power button the shut down menu comes up with a black screen behind it. I've tried doing the same update.app again and it doesn't help.

---------- Post added at 03:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:47 AM ----------

I contacted the honor support and they said I can just send it back and they will fix it for me. I guess that's how I'll have to fix it... :L
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] shashank1320:
You will have to flash stock recovery, stock boot, userdata, vendor and cust partition to recover. Check there is a guide in guide section by dazed no more, i think, use that to recover. Dont ever flash anything from other model it can damage the phone that may not be recoverable.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] OneofUS_too:
No needed, already fixed some other way.

after enabling the developers option in settings and i tap developers option it goes back to home screen. ive done a factory reset same thing any ideas?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] SRI HARI RAJAN:
do you use default home screen and launcher?...............coz sometimes other launchers may cause problems...................
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] trwilson1974:
No i have just unlocked the boot loader and installed the magisk manager and patched the boot file from magisk then flashed said patched boot image to device via fastboot. So it was working fine cause i had to get there to enable adb. I guess after flashing patched boot img and rebooted it hasn't worked. also if i go into advanced settings then press security tab it brings me back to the settings main screen.. Thanks

---------- Post added at 07:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:48 PM ----------

also adb is not working as well as not being able to goto the developers tab.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] trwilson1974:
But i can boot into fastboot mode to reflash whatever you recommend to fix this thing. any ideas?

---------- Post added at 02:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:06 AM ----------

and it seems im no longer allowed to flash via fastboot any longer because of frp lock! Dang it what caused the freaking frp lock? Anyone have any idea what i should do next?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] SRI HARI RAJAN:
apparently if u cant do anything with fastboot then u lost everything on ur side...................so my advice is visit a service centre

I have a honor 6x.why it does not install 3rd party apps even after pressing the next button.i have enabled the unknown sources..
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] H4V0K864:
Is there anything overlaying the screen? For example Facebook messenger's chat heads feature. If so you can't install an app in Android to my knowledge. It's a security feature basically designed to prevent something hijacking your screen and forcibly installing an unsafe app.

My question:

I've had trouble with sound not working, then themes not working, then camera not working...i rolled back to marshmallow then came back to BLN-L24C567B368, camera worked fine. Unlocked bootloader and flashed magisk, xposed etc just fine all is in working order. Camera still works. Until I open snapchat, after which point I get a message saying camera or snapchat crashed I should reboot to fix the problem. Now my main camera app and snapchat both are broken. I've tried everything. This phone has literally about 70 hours worth of work put into it for simple tasks I never have trouble with. I'm so frustrated this thing is about to go in the microwave.

[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] trwilson1974:
Well I was able to finally restore back to stock just like new and start over. I used firmware finder to download the firmware. I took that and got the update.app file using the extraction tool from multitool app. ( I assume you can find the utility somewhere as a stand alone app but I launched it using multitool 8. From here on xda) I then placed the update.app file on a folder I created on my external sd card called dload. Powered off my phone. Restarted phone with vol up and vol down and power button all pressed at same time. It applied the update and locked my bootloader. It also got rid of my frp lock issue where the oem unlocking switch was greyed out. I then unlocked bootloader and installed magisk to obtain root. I can not for the life of me get twrp to install and be able to boot into twrp!!! I've followed all guides I can find about the subject without any luck. Any help on that would be appreciated very much. Maybe this will help someone? I hope so!! Thanks guys for all your help.

AOSP ROM? EMUI 4 or 5? What to do with new phone?

I just received my Honor 6x (BLN-L24) and I have to put it into immediate service. Therefore I do not have much time to experiment with various ROMs to see what works well. I'm not a total noob when it comes to installing a custom recovery and custom ROM, but there are so many ROMs for this phone, I'm not sure where to start! I've already unlocked the bootloader with ADB. But other than that, the phone is still running "out of the box" Marshmallow 6.0 and EMUI 4.

I typically prefer a rooted phone that is running stock Android without manufacturer customization. I am not interested in hotrodding the phone. Is there an AOSP/stock ROM out there that anyone can suggest? I have poked around through the list of custom ROMs, but there are many to choose from and I am not sure what to pick.

Second question. I actually don't mind the EMUI interface. It seems quite clean and so far smooth and reliable. I can live with it if I have to. If there is no AOSP rom for this phone and I have to stick with factory ROMs, Should I upgrade the phone to Nougat and EMUI 5 or is Marshmallow and EMUI 4 the best choice?

My ultimate goal is a ROM that runs smoothly and is reliable for the long run. I enjoy tinkering to an extent, but nowadays I want something that "just works" without a lot of fuss.

I apologize for asking such trivial questions, but I just don't have the time to test everything out before I have to put this phone into service.

Thank You!

(EDIT)

I went ahead and upgraded to Nougat and EMUI 5 to give it a whirl. I am very impressed. I then unlocked the bootloader (again), installed TWRP and rooted. All worked flawlessly. The phone runs very smooth and I am very impressed with it's feel. Very little bloatware, and I was able to get rid of that stuff with Titanium Backup. Looks like I'll stick with stock for now. Very happy that I bought this phone! (Admins, you can delete this post if you desire.)

Soft Bricked phone

Hi all,

I tried installing a custom rom today. This is the rom: https://xdaforums.com/honor-6x/development/rom-t3642094

I forgot to read the directions and like an idiot forgot to do the following two steps, and instead just flashed the rom with TWRP.

1) Copy vendor.img to your sdcard

2) Run adb shell dd if=/sdcard/vendor.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/vendor

Currently, my phone cannot boot. I am able to put it into eRecovery mode, but Huawei's eRecovery function is broken and won't download the data. My computer (Hisuite) recognizes the phone. When I try to get into TWRP recovery mode from ADB, I get this:

device unauthorized.

This adbd's $ADB_VENDOR_KEYS is not set; try 'adb kill-server' if that seems wrong.

Otherwise check for a confirmation dialog on your device.

Since Huawei's eRecovery thing doesn't work, I'm not sure how I can unbrick my device or get into TWRP.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
