Help please

Sir I have Honor 6x indian varient on emui 5, past 2 months I have officially unlocked bootloader on my phone and flashed twrp successfully but when I restarted my phone into recovery, it just stucked at the bootloader unlocked page.

Then I found some ways to flash the original emui recovery through some Chinese application, but currently there is no recovery in my phone.

But thank to God that it still has its OS.

My doubt is if I again started to deal with my phone in the way you posted, will my phone can be repaired?? As there is no emui recovery that will install the zip by pressing and holding all three buttons(maybe).

Help me sirplzz:mad:
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
I think i replied on other thread. Hope your question is addressed.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] me.puneet8877:
sir can you elaborate about the second zip, what is it, what will it do, and from where to download it.

And after installing first zip , how much process is completed??

AND SIR AS I TOLD YOU BEFORE THAT THERE IS NO EMUI RECOVERY ON MY DEVICE AND I SAW A VIDEO ON YOUTUBE ABOUT THIS AND THAT PROCESS EMUI UPDATING SCREEN, SO ARE YOU SURE WILL IT WORK?

AND SIR I AM ALSO FROM DELHI SO CAN YOU EVER GIVE ME YOUR PRECIOUS TIME SO THAT I CAN SHOW YOU THE EXACT CONDITION OF MY PHONE, PLZZZZ
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:

Honor 6x bricked; trying dload method; stops at 5%

I rebranded my Huawei Mate 9 Lite as Honor 6x while upgrading it to chinese Oreo 526-log firmware. It wasn't working ok with Google Apps, so tried to downgrade to middle east (c185) Nougat firmware. Now I'm stuck on bootloop. I followed your instructions on dload method, but software install fails after 5%.

I can open Stock Recovery and Stock eRecovery, but even trying to format data fails after 5%.

I have tryied to flash TWRP with fastboot (done it successfully during and after flashing Oreo), but now it fails saying that the file I'm trying to flash is too big.

Can you help me?

Thanks!!
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
Coz you flasges oreo and there is seperate partition for recovery on oreo as recovery_ramdisk.

Dload the same old firmware or higher version.

Did you flash the oeminfo of c185?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] agustin.farias:
Yes, I flashed c185 oeminfo
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] magoooood:
Many thanks for the informative instructions but I've 2 questions before I do the update process.

1) For my European model of Honor View10, I have 2 files: "update.zip" and another file called "update_full_BKL-L09_hw_eu.zip". The update.zip is much bigger in size than the other one. Will the update be successful If I extract the file update.zip (which extracts itself to a dload folder by default) on my phone's internal memory and dialling *#*#2846579#*#* then choosing "Software Upgrade" then SDCard Upgrade?

2) if the answer is yes to the above question, why I still need to flash the other file "update_full_BKL-L09_hw_eu.zip" if the update.zip file has the full firmware version?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
1- yes.

2- because sometimes due to corruption, few apps are missing like updater, themes, clock, file manager etc so flashing small data files brings them back. Sometimes it is not required to flash but most of the time it is needed.

It can be viewed like update.zip is main ROM zip and data.zip is gapps (or similar)
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] magoooood:
Thanks a lot for the information. I was wondering if this is method of updating gonna keep all my settings, apps and files intact like OTA update method or not? Thanks
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
In moat of cases, dload do not delete user data. But if its only update.zip and full firmware then it may delete. In my most of dload till android 7 on 5C, 5X, 6X this has not deleted any data unless rollback or downgrade
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Leo_83:

Update file will be of around 70 mb ( i had this size gor my 5C so assuming similar).

Firstly, copy the update to dload and dload method. Then after boot, put the MM firmware in dload amd same method. You can get full firmware for MM for your model in OP. Open link n search for your model.

Hi.

What is not clear to me is the type of file I should download from Firmware finder or from Huawei...

[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Mammuth1:
I just buy it from taobao... 4gb ram 32gb flash... EMUI 5 Android 7.0...

Nothing special...

I unlocked the bootloader, installed twrp and try to install gapps pico on stock rom, but didn't works...

I didn't see any error in twrp during installing gapps, and the gapps log shows some part of google already installed!?

I'm confused, maybe the stock rom have some parts inside, or I didn't have the stock rom on phone...

How can I save/capture the stock rom?

Or what shall I do to get working the gapps?

Simply install from "HiApp" doesn't working...
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] jerryhou85:
I'll try to find a BLN-AL40 ROM for you, but since it is a new release with EMUI 5.0 installed already. I'm not sure the stock ROM is out yet.

For installing gapps, you have 2 methods:

1. "Soft way": you don't need root or unlock or flash, just install google apps to get a full Google Play framework. See this: https://xdaforums.com/honor-6x/help/china-variants-users-how-google-t3550396

2. "Hard way": Debrand your phone to another model....so that you can flash a ROM with full Google Play framework. See this: https://xdaforums.com/honor-6x/how-to/debranding-guide-china-rom-to-variant-t3568170
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Mammuth1:
I tried again the "soft way"...

Boot to "Huawei eRecovery", downloaded/updated the stock rom over WLAN... Factory reset...

I downloaded the files from https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=70903832&postcount=7 and installed all three...

Still cannot add "google account" and if I try to start play store, then I get this: "Install core GMS packages to use Google Play Store"...

Maybe I make something wrong...
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] adriansticoid:
Is Play Services installed?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] jerryhou85:
Maybe you need to install the version for Android 7, you should try to download the latest version from site like APKMirror and install again. Good luck.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Mammuth1:

[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] adriansticoid:

For me was the same... Only worked if "vendor" partition was also mounted in TWRP...

Then, I installed gapps from twrp... no error shown , and after the reboot, the phone automatically started to do a "factory reset"...

After this, no any gapps on phone, and root also lost...

I attached the gapps log...

I was reading some posts about that the EMUI 5 built with Goolge Play Framework already, like in Mate 9 and P9 from HUAWEI. But I couldn't find much information on this now. I think you better wait for some time to see whether there is any method pop up.

Don't debrand your phone at this moment, because I saw posts saying debrand this AL40 to AL10 casuing some issues.

I checked inside the Huawei appstore, this GSM installer doesn't exist :(

I found this: 【安卓应用】GMS安装器 （EMUI5.0专用）

This installed the Google Play Services v9.8.79 (440-137224771) and i have GMS core :)

Download links:

- http://www.qt6.com/app/com.huawei.gmsinstaller

- http://www.muzisoft.com/soft/416512.html

Unfortunately, i get a different error message now: "Gmail won't run without Google Play services, which are not supported by your device." Screenshot

I already tried to install this, the install gaaps from recovery, result: automatic factory reset, but this Google Play Services )which was installed by GSM installer) still there...

So maybe, this is not a "real" factory reset...

However, i found some installer on the net, and an topic about the official Huawei app: Analysis of Huawei's GMS installer
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] jerryhou85:
:(:(:( Hope you can fix the Gapps soon... I was using EMUI 4.1 when installed GMS, and then upgrade to EMUI 5. The GMS was not lost during upgrade... I'm not sure what HUAWEI has done in EMUI 5 to prevent GMS installed... And that applies to most China local phones since our government banned Google officially...

Maybe you should wait for a debrand method popping out... :mad:
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Mammuth1:

Fact is: my wife cannot wait :)

So, I need a working 6x... I will buy a new 6x, but different version...

[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Mammuth1:
Google Play is WORKING!!! :D:victory::cool::good:

Many thanks for all of you! ;)

The final solution for Honor 6x BLN-AL40 (Android 7.0 EMUI 5.0):

1. Clean start: reinstall stock ROM over eRecovery

2. Install Google Installer (same here)

3. Install GMS Core

4. Restart :)

So, no bootloader unlock, no root required...

Just both "google installer" together :)

I am really grateful when somebody does a lot of work for the community, but here I am a bit uncertain.

Of course, being European I don't really understand Chinese. Google translate can help there, but things are not looking good.

When I download the GMS Core, it wants to install "The Dragonfly Assistant Simulator".

I do not want that. Furthermore, I uploaded the qt6_38055.exe on virustotal, for a check.

Guess what: 25 out of 61 virus scanners reported that it is infected with malware.

The report can be seen here:
