IDEM!! COMPLETELY IDEM! I had the pra-lx1c55b105 too, and, after root, I have your same problems too! Please, someone help us!!!
nobody read the multiple thread about this problem ?
Sorry but it's really annoying. (it's not about you, nothing personnal
Your problem is related to a different version between the boot_root image and, the system partition...
You could try to update your phone to the latest firmware (so you have to configure the wifi and then check in the "about" page for an update)
If an update if available, then I think this will solve your problem.
And be very carefull, never install (apk or worse, flash a partition ) something if no version is specified
My friend had maked the update over Wi-Fi but after the download the flash in the recovery fails, why ? @ripp2003 can you link me where la located this theard ? Thanks a lot

https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/p8-lite-2017-discussion/how-to-root-huawei-p8-lite-2017-android-t3582179
But this topic is related to PR1-LX1C432B110 and this is the source of newesc.... (this topic got a lot of informations on how to find your firmware)
So right now, you need the exact version of the firmware : I think it's pra-lx1c55b105
-> Find it and download it with Huawei Firmware Finder
-> Extract the boot.img from the firmware with Huawei Firmware Extractor (or maybe you've done a copy before flash the boot_root.img ?)
-> fastboot flash boot boot.img
You 'll lost root but this way, I think you can recover your phone
If this doesnt work, I'm really sorry but, you have to wait for some developpers to make Rom....or, some special things for recover an official firmware.
I'm sorry, this situation is a bullsh**
Really Good luck
@ripp2003 thanks a lot, i had tell this to my friend and Now He try
@ripp2003 bad news after the flash of the kernel rom the Phone is soft bricked , it appears the tim logo than reboot in recovery , He has tried to flash the full rom from the recovery but only install failed

The problem is to find it... On the internet I can't find anything, and on firmware finder too. I need the stock PRA-LX1C55B105 firmware (especially the boot.img) but the problem is to find it. I can't find it anywhere!!!
Please help
I Think what firmware finder isn't really good, someone know another method to download firmware or part of firmware like the boot.img?

Can you tell me what you did? You flashed the entire zip, or only the boot.img? And how? With twrp right?
Yes everything works. I did factory reset and the phone is back to default.
I extracted BOOT image and RECOVERY image with HuaweiUpdateExtractor.
After that with I copied both BOOT and RECOVERY image in Minimal ADB and Fastboot folder.
At last I've connected the phone to PC and flashed BOOT and RECOVERY image.
I've disconnected the phone booted in recovery did factory reset and after that phone booted normally.
Hello!
I have a Huawei Mate 9 (MHA-L29C432B190). Yesterday I tried to root my Phone to play Pokemon Go with fake gps. After I managed to root my phone, I couldn't boot into TWRP Recovery Mode anymore.
Because I still had some files I needed to flash I installed Flashfire from the PlayStore. I think after I flashed the newest Magisk version(The flash failed because of Error:1), my device got unrooted. But I think my device is still partly rooted because I can't get into Pokemon Go. Everytime I try to start it I get stuck the loading screen. So right now I can't flash anything to get my root back and I don't have the root to use alternative flash applications. I also tried to start return my phone to stock back with a update.app But it can't be installed. I also can't use "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" I always get " Writing 'recovery'...FAILED (remote:command can't be used/allowed)". And also after some reboots my oem unlock got turned off and I can't turn it on anymore.
I don't have any ideas anymore what to do. I thought I could root my device, so I could unroot properly with superuser. I tried some other application like KingRoot oder OneClickRoot but both of them don't have a rooting method for the Huawei Mate 9 yet. Btw I don't have a backup because of my naivety.
I hope you guys can help me . I appreciate any ideas
Thanks in advance

That doesn't tell me anything. That just tells me that you tried flashing.
It doesn't tell me anything about exactly what you tried to flash or what errors you got when you flashed. I need more precise information to help you. Your simple answers aren't helping me understand anything about what you have going on with your device.
What tools have you used? What guide/instructions did you use? What files have you used? What errors did you get? What results did you get. What do mean "didn't work"? "Didn't work" can mean many things.
I might be able to help you fix your device but I can't fix ignorance.

First I tried to do a force upgrade with a "dload" folder with a update.app file on my sdcard . After booting into this upgrade mode by pressing vol up + vol down + power button my device starts to install the stock firmware, but after it reaches 5% I get the message "Error with installing" and a Link to the same site when you boot into twrp. This always happens no matter which file I use. Next I tried to do a normal upgrade by calling this number "*#*#2846579#*#*" (The dload folder is still on my sdcard). But when I start the software upgrade I get booted into twrp and like I said in my post, always when I try to get into twrp I get stuck on the "Your device is booting screen". This is what I tried and basicly every site on google is saying I should try to do one of these two methods

Stock upgrades are not going to work if you are rooted and have TWRP.
Stock updates require stock recovery and an unmodified system partition(no root).

Hello everyone, so today I tried installing lineageos on my g play mini, and while I was factory reseting using twrp, it actually deleted my OS, even though I'm fairly sure I didn't check internal memory... Anyway, my phone got completely wiped out, but I can access twrp recovery, and fastboot mode. Is there a way to get back to the stock ROM? I've been trying for hours, but I can't find a solution. There are no custom mods for this phone, even the twrp version I'm using is for the honor 4c. Any help would be appreciated

I tried that, it updates normally but it stops right before the end and it gets stuck
I also tried extracting the Recovery, Boot and Cust files from the UPDATE.app file, and flashing them, but it doesn't do anything.
When I try to install it via zip file from the original recovery menu, it fails instantly with the message "cust link file fail. please check if vendor/country is valid. Software install failed!"

I still had the one that came originally with it. Which is Android Kit Kat (4.4) if I'm not mistaken. I never changed it while my phone was alive. I tried flashing the 4.4 rom available in Huawei's official site, as well as a lollipop one, and a 6.0 one. None worked, unfortunately.

I'm not 100% sure, but here's what I did:
Downloaded an oeminfo zipped file, and flashed it through twrp. It was supposed to be for my model, but after flashing it successfully, I noticed my phone showed the "honor" logo, instead of the usual huawei one.
So after that, I downloaded the Kit Kat rom for Honor 4c, and extracted the following files from the UPDATE.app: boot, cache, cust, system, recovery.
Flashed them independently, and then I tried to turn on the phone, and it was working again, running Android Kit Kat. After that I've been able to update it to 6.0, EMUI4.0, through dload, local update method
this **** was scary but I pulled it off somehow. I have no knowledge whatsoever, this was pure trial and error for 5 days straight.
I should be able to install LineageOS now, don't you think?

If you had Android version higher than Android 5 and TWRP, you can download stock firmware with firmwarefinder (if it still exist, search in forums for it) and flash it in TWRP like any rom.
So, i have a P10 vtr-l29c432, bootloader unlocked, with twrp installed and from future rom installed, and now i want to go back to stock rom with Huawei recovery, to use the official updates via ota without problems. I'm not a noob but this is my first Huawei device and things are way more complicated compared with oneplus or nexus devices. My question is how to do it, because what i've so far is confusing me, if someone could explain me or give me some instructions i will appreciate it, thanks!
Hi!
same situation here. I would very much like to go back to stock but I'm not sure how... I saw a tutorial but I am not certain that that is what I need. Any confirmation would be very appreciated!!!
Tx & best
Exact same problem here on the p10 vtr-l09, seems to be a few different methods out there, either don't work or too confusing
You can try to update your phone with my guide.
This will reformat the system and your phone is on stock after a factory reset (reset is important when you come from another rom).
After factory reset you should be able to lock the bootloader.
Important is that you have in mind which Android version is installed and which phone model you have.
No warranty for this, I didn't try it or know someone with the same situation. But after learning something about how emui works it shouldn't be a problem.
did anyone tried this? I'm using custom rom from openkirin project and I would like to get back to stock. I have the stock recovery
On openkirin's website is a tutorial.
You need to extract system.img, ramdisk.img and kernel.img from update.app and flash them with Fastboot. After this boot into eRecovery and make a factory reset.

Yeah I tried to follow the instructions which they put in three separate articles, however the last one is landing on the main page and I don't see the flasing instructions. Here is the link:
https://openkirin.net/user_guide/how-to-flash-extracted-partition-images/
Doesn't work in all countries but worth a try:
Go to eRecovery (not recovery) and use wifi to go back to stock.
Worked for me.

Then do it like I wrote, the Fastboot commands should be clear if you already installed the Rom.
WiFi downloads don't work if you're rooted, you need to flash stock ramdisk manually before you can download via eRecovery.

Maybe he didn't install magisk when he was on one of the OpenKirin roms, so ramdisk is still stock. I used this eRecovery WiFi method when I was on fRomFuture, no magisk installed.

Use huru updater as it is safest back to stock option for latest Huawei devices. Lookup tool right here in xda.

Jannomag here, it's possible to "update" to the same version. My script just tells the recovery to install the given update files. The recovery will overwrite the system without removing user data.
This should work without any issues but it can happen, that bugs are still present after this. If you want to fix firmware issues a complete factory reset is much more effective.

Hi all!
First a warning: I tell you how what I done, applying this on different model is possible but require some knowledge... don't try if you are not enough experienced.
My BTV-DL09 had a C100B303 firmware (unlocked, rooted with SuperSu 2.82) and I wanted to upgrade to last version, B310, downloaded with Firmware Finder for Huawei.
But this formware is not yet approved for my device! So i searched a way to update the firmware and found HuRUpdater.
Here the step-by-step tutorial:
1) download version B310
2) rename files (required by HuRUpdater):
- update_data_full_public.zip -> update_data_public.zip
- update_full_BTV-DL09_hw_eu.zip -> update_all_hw.zip
3) download HuRUpdater, I used version 0.3 if a new is available read what's changed.
4) (optional) download custom recovery (in this case the Greatslon TWRP for EMUI 5) and rename it "recovery.img"
5) copy all files to SD, in a subfolder (don't use "dload")
6) install, if not already present, the custom recovery
7) boot to the recovery and install "HuRUpdater_0.3.zip"
8) follow on-screen instructions than reboot!
At this point the Mediapad was working BUT
A) without root
B) with a "half" lock: the bootloader says it's unlocked but refused to flash or boot a custom recovery.
Problem B: I had to re-unlock the booloader with command
fastboot oem unlock 12345678901234567980
I accepted that my data will be erased (I have a backup, you too???) and the Mediapad rebooted.
I was lucky because the data was not erased and the bootloader now was fully unlocked. I'm not sure if this works for all of you so backup your data before. (***)
Problem A: not the custom recovery is booting so I flashed Magisk 15.3 (I had this version on other devices and don't wanted to do more testing for that day). It installed correctly, rebooted and
that's all folks!
(***) Here the enlightenment: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78194270&postcount=1029 from @zxz0O0
In short: flash also the custom recovery!
I have a M3 that can only boot up to twrp. I am trying to fix this tablet, since the previous owner accidentally erased the system partition, and it will not load. I did a search using the firmware finder, but wasn't sure I did it right, alot of versions came up. I do not know what software version was on it, before it got messed up. All I know is that it was bought less than two months ago. I was hoping someone could post a direct link to the firmware that I could use to get this tablet up and running again. the original owner lives in the US, as do I. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

First you need to know the exact model. One method can be this:
0) insert an SD card
1) boot the TWRP
2) open the terminal
3) execute the command:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/oeminfo of=/external_sd/oeminfo.img
this will copy the OEMINFO partition to the SD card.
4) open the oeminfo.img file with a hex editor and search for "BTV", do not stop to the first occurrence: there are some and you will find the exact firmware code that was installed.
5) search a FULL firmware with FW finder than flash it!

Hello. I messed up my M3 trying to update and now Bluetooth does not work.
My firmware shows in Settings as "testkeys", so I don't really now what firmware is, probably B302 since security patch is from November 2017.
I am trying to flash full firmware again and do a full wipe. I tried to do it via TWRP and eRecovery too, but both methods fail.
I also tried the method the OP mentioned with no luck either (maybe because mine is the WiFi-only European version).
What should I do? How do I go back to stock? I don't care if I lose my data or if I have to relock bootloader again, I just want my M3 to work properly again!

Model is BTV-W09C100B006 according to oeminfo.img, so I guess firmware must be B006?
In Settings it shows up like the screenshot attached:

Ahi, ahi... you are unable to discriminate what is the device model (BTV-W09) from the firmware version (BTV-W09C100B006). So you are not enough experienced nor skilled... Search someone that can help you offline!

I may be not enough experienced nor skilled but I've been unlocking, rooting and changing roms to my phones since Android 2.1 era, that was many years ago as you know.
I know that the model is BTV-W09, I just said that OEMINFO says BTV-W09C100B006 when searching "btv" with an hex-editor following YOUR instructions from your earlier post.
Anyway, thanks for nothing, I finally found a solution by myself writing the required images one by one trough ADB.
Have a nice day.
I had to have messed up something quite well, I ran the updater, everything seemed to go fine, but when I rebooted, it wont go off the Huawei MediaPad android screen, and I can not get it back into TWRP , or get it to do anything else, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Model?
Firmware previously on tablet?
Firmware that you installed?
Which files you used?
The update procedure was successfully or there was some message?
Model number is BTV-W09
Do not know the original firmware, but I apparently read the model number wrong when I looked it up. I used BTV-DL09. TWRP said install was a success ( I used the HuRUupdater thru TWRP) The files used was the full OTA , the update_full_BTV-DL09_dialcu_cn.zip, as well as the update_data_full_public.zip. I changed the file name to the names that were needed to run HuRUpdater. So my question is does anyone know how to fix my mistake?
I was able to get it into fastboot mode, but it said the phone was locked, and was not picked up by my computer.

NEVER install the software for one model on a different hardware. NEVER!
What TWRP says it's not important: it only wrote some files on a disk but it's not of interest what is inside these files.
You have to flash an appropriate firmware, no other options.
how can I flash the the firmware, if I no longer have TWRP, or when I can get into flashboot mode, the computer does not recognize the tablet? . Here is a probably stupid question: do I look for BTV-W09, which is the model of MY tablet?

You have to unpack the firmware and flash the partition images with flashboot.
Search the forum for "Huawei Update Extractor".
which of these are the partition images? Second stupid question, I tried to get in to fastboot, but the computer would not recognize the tablet

All of this are partition images!
The problem is that you have to write all relevant partitions that was written from bad firmware!
Often boot.img is enough to have TWRP working.
What about if I can't get the computer to recognize the tablet in fastboot mode?
