Anyone know what Updating Partition details means in TWRP? It won't let me flash anything....it just says failed and has updating partition details at the bottom ....... I restarted the phone and it still says it when I go back in to TWRP. Any ideas on how to fix this so I can flash again?

glad you're up and running.
So I was an idiot, I've resigned myself to this fact because I've clearly done something wrong.
TWRP installed, rooted and booted.
Then I tried to flash a new ROM from here using TWRP and well... that's where things went tits up. Something in TWRP said in red about not being able to mount something. The loading screen was stuck and then it just bootlooped over and over again. I downloaded a stock ROM, wiped system and tried to flash but now it's stuck on the "your device is shifty" screen and I'm totally out of ideas...
Please refrain from pointing out what a moron I've been.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can save this wretched soul.
do you have access to bootloader with fastboot?
seeing a lot of threads like this around here. Don't want to offend you or anybody else but just that someone has said it: First thing you do after flashing TWRP is a backup :angel:
hope you get your things sorted though. Can your please provide a more detailed list of things you did? How did you try to flash the stock rom you downloaded? dload forced update? flashed in twrp? etc.

I can still get in to bootloader and fastboot mode no problem.

Yeah I realised I should have done that the second things started going wrong, I got cocky. And I tried to flash the stock with TWRP; downloaded it to my laptop, put it on the SD card and then in to the phone. Every process that the installation or wipe or any of the other actions performed by TWRP is followed by a line saying "Failed to mount '/ data' (Invalid argument)". I tried to follow the forced update of the stock but I couldn't seem to get that to work either ( this method stechguide.com/marshmallow-stock-rom-for-huawei-p9 ). After all that I can't think if there's anything else.

Ok, so a few things:
-The failed to mount /data message probably means that you have an old version of TWRP, check the thread again and make sure you use at least RC3 (newest one afaik).
-Original stock Huawei roms are not suitable for TWRP, to flash a stock rom you need a stock recovery which you can flash back the same way you flashed twrp (using fastboot, or SRK tools). Once you have stock recovery, you can force the update by putting the update file in a folder on your sdcard (internal or external) called "dload". Then you turn off the phone and start it by holding volume up, volume down and power.
-Alternatively you could use a custom rom, which you can find in the dev thread. Custom roms can and should be flashed in TWRP.
Try relocking botloader and installing stock rom with this tool

I keep pressing the up/down + power buttons but it keeps going to TWRP, as for the out of date version I have 3.0.0-0 but as lomunet suggested I'm downloading the srk tool. That's what I originally used to install TWRP in the first place. For the stock ROM to boot do I need to do anything to the file when it's downloaded (ie zipped or unzipped)? Nosing around a few other threads I noticed they mention something about making a file in the root of the file, and I hope you'll pardon my ignorance, but I have no idea how to do that. As for the custom ROM, I'll try that again when srk tools has finished downloading and I've reinstalled TWRP.

And I'd just like to thank you two for your patience!
Edit:
Ok so, I installed the latest TWRP (3.0.2-eva-modaco-rc3) and that went off without a hitch. Using the SRK tools that lomunet suggested I tried to sideload the stock ROM but the error message of " cannot read 'sideload\ROM.zip' " keeps popping up. I'm downloading a custom ROM (forum.xda-developers.com/p9/development/rom-huawei-p9-fromfuture-newworld-t3390820) as I type to see if that works flashing it through TWRP.

you really need to flash stock recovery first to flash stock firmware. It won't work as long as you have TWRP installed you can use SRK tools to flash stock recovery.
If you are always stuck, jus download "DC Phoenix"(i don't know if i'm authorized to post the name ?), it's a paid app but it's worked for me. Just boot to fastboot mode, and flash your firmware with the app

Ahhhh right right right. So I need to remove TWRP first, then use SRK tools to flash the stock recovery?
... so, how do I remove TWRP?

Installing stock recovery will remove TWRP.

I was trying to fix my google play "no connection error" but it didn't work so i just reset my phone as a last resort to try and fix this problem. It restarted in recovery mode i thought this was just a procedure and i just hit reboot -> system. it rebooted again into recovery mode i checked if there were any wtuck volume rockers but there aren't any help?
(FYI: one plus 3T: Rooted)

What recovery are you running? Stock or TWRP?

TWRP
And telling TWRP to boot system just bring you back into TWRP?
Hmm... sounds like you might need to reflash whatever rom you were on.

This happened to me. I installed custom rom then I went into fastboot and installed stock recovery. I would search in this forum for the stock recovery img file. Once installed, I rebooted and it loaded the rom. I had this problem on the latest twrp version. I installed the previous twrp and I am all good now.

Thank You.
Issue has been resolved. OP is my little cousin who's been messing around a bit too frantically [emoji14]
I restored his device with the unbrick tool by Haris K., all's peachy again. There are still some issues with TWRP for 3T, doesn't run nearly as smooth as on the OPO. It completely failed to restore any working system (both from backup or from reflashing). Sideloading seemingly worked, but rebooted to recovery again, adb push only resulted in errors. Are there any tweaked TWRP releases that can do better?
Cooked with Resurrected bacon!
I recently dusted off my Nexus 6 to test a few projects on and wanted to update everything. But no matter what I try within TWRP, every zip/img fails. Any guidance on how to repair the filesystem would be helpful. The attached images is the error. For now it seems shamu has been beached:crying:
Running TWP 3.1.1.0
ROM: LineageOS, not sure which version
Android version: 7.1.1
Bootloader is unlocked
Update to the latest TWRP and see if that helps. You want version 3.2.1-0.

Thanks, I just tried that. I was able to flash the recovery img through adb, but any attempt to flash a zip through fails with the same errors
format data on twrp you will lose everything so do backup
belive ihave the same problen but when i formated data with twrp the problem is gone so got to twrp - wipe -format data Type yes

Your safest bet would be going for a factory image, and then reflash twrp and then try again to see if everything is allright.
Or try formatting data from TWRP, like person above me mentioned. USB Drive+otg adapter might come in handy to keep stuff you want to flash there

I'll give this a shot, seems likely it will rebuild the corrupted bits.

thanks man i installed it over again then it was giving the option to wipe it now i got it working appreciate the help now if i want to update it i have to do the same process right?
FWIW, I have a utility for expanding sparse files.
Then you can flash them with any utility like a flat file.
Yeah, there are a zillion utilities that do that.
They are mostly named simg2img.

Nope, the update is done with OTA(Zip.format) then the Twrp.
update the TWRP first.
