[Q] Ascend P6 Bootloop - Huawei Ascend P6, Mate

Hello all.
I know this has been asked a gazillion of times, but the solutions I can find, are not working for me.
I rooted my phones yesterday, for the first time and all went great. I got reverse tether to work etc etc.
I installed a few apps, and they all worked.
Then i installed Xposed framework, and it got me into a bootloop.
I tried flashing the recovery_original_flashable.img from another thread and this went perfect, but it still is in the bootloop. I can get into recovery, but it does nothing. It just lets me wipe cache and or do a factory reset and those both have no effect whatsoever.
I know I might be doing something wrong, can anyone help me?
And sorry if I am just forgetting one step in all of this.
Thanks in advance

EDIT:
I got the stock rom ready, yet, I cannot exit my SD card to copy the update.app file. This is due to a drop a year back, it is bend at the sd card slot and when I use a little needle to make it come up it tries to push the whole sidepanel off, I tried connecting to fastboot and using ADB push command to drop the file there, but it does not see my device.
How to move on?

Since you cant remove the sdcard and you are on stock recovery i would first suggest that you flash twrp recovery in order to get to the sdcard. Once you can boot to twrp you can mount the storage on your computer and from there copy the update.app file you need to install a fresh copy of the system. When thats done you can flash back the stock recovery and update normaly.

Got it on there now,
Flashed the stock recovery back
Reboot into recovery->Error -> E:failed to mount.
What now? Thanks for the help in advance!
Edit:
Ok, I have gotten it to mount at least one time, but it will not run the UPDATE.APP, not with booting with VOL - and + pressed, not with VOL+ pressed nor with VOL - pressed.
I can enter the SD card, but after going in into the folders and going back it disconnects the SD card and it is failed to mount again.

So you are on the stock recovery with the update.app file place in a dload folder in your sdcard and it cant start the update process?

Correct.
I went on trying some things, and it would not update back to the stock rom. I tried flashing TWDR (right?) and that worked, and after that I tried flasing the Cyanogen mod rom, and its working again. Although I must say, its buggy as frack.
for example: Camera wont show, it opens app but then keeps showing homescreen with a gray overlay, and when pressing the power button, it wont ever show me a menu to restart or shutdown etc.
Anyone using a rom on the P6 that does not have this problem?
Summary: I can flash custom roms, I cant flash stock roms for some reason...

[Q] Rooted Desire stuck between ROMs!!! HELP!!!

Hi guys, I've had my Desire rooted for around 2 months and have used loads of
ROMs/Mods etc. It's fair to say I know the procedure. At the moment though I'm
puzzled and worried because I have lost my previous ROM and can't get a new one
on!
I was flashing a new version of Pinky Desire over the previous one (without wiping)
and it never got to the reboot screen. So I took out the battery and put it back in
to reboot it. It got to the custom boot screen and no further so I then booted into
recovery and wiped data and cache and re-flashed the ROM, but the result was
the same...
So I tried this a couple more times until suddenly the recovery-windows.bat file
would no longer put me into a recovery menu. I've tried everything I can think of
(using my original Goldcard etc) but nothing is fixing it- it's like I've lost root access.
How can I make my phone useable again? PLEASE HELP!!!
EDIT: In case it makes a difference I did delete what I thought were some old .zips from my SD shortly before this.
Install an official RUU, then re-root it? I guess some of the pro's got some better answers though
Download the ClockworkMod recovery, rename it in update.zip, put it in the sd, enter recovery, when you get the red triangle press vol up+power, select to flash update.zip.
Yep, flash an ruu, then re-root, only this time use unrEVOked and for future when flashing roms use the newer recoveries like clockworkmod or amonra.
The old recoverywindows.bat file leaves you at risk of the usb brick. You may well already have that now if you pulled the battery mid flash.
Thanks all. Haven't had a chance to do this yet but will. I did manage to flash an update.zip but it won't detect the sd. will try with clockwork mod.

Tried this but all I'm getting is cannot find directory. It retries about 12 times then
reboots. Just won't work.
When trying to flash an RUU it comes up with 'Error 170: USB connection error'.
This is weird because the device's bootloader recognises that there's a usb
connection. Any ideas?
EDIT: Seems like the phone in it's current state simply can't mount an sd card.
Gotta try some alternative methods for getting the RUU to run...

Had almost same problem.

the problem was in SD. it was working OK in windows, but phone couldn't mount it. soved problem with reformating using SDFormater, when formated with clockworkmod.

I've two SDs and neither is working though so...
two things
the windows unlockerthing.bat was only supposed to be run one time, after that you could access the menu pressing vol up and power...
Why would you pull the batt on a Flash??
Pulled the battery because the device said flash completed but didn't do anything for over 5 mins. Won't make that mistake again. I've actually bricked the USB so this thread is a little pointless now
Oh and I did fix the SD issue

Er. I kinda messed up..

I tried that pyramid rom, and since it doesn't boot, I was gonna try to do virtuous, Well I put that image to update the radio, and forgot that I can't get into android to take the image off, and when I need to go into recovery, it tries reading the image, and when I say no to update again, it wants to reboot. How does one get around this?
EDIT: had a smart idea and removed the SD card. all is good now.

In the future when it asks to reboot after saying no to install the image you can press down arrow key and you can go into recovery or reboot into rom
Sent from my Xoom using xda premium
or in the future...turn off your phone, plug into usb on computer, run command line (assuming you have adb) and just type "adb reboot recovery".
it works even when the phone is off...
If I am understanding you right you have the PG32IMG.zip for the Radio update on the root of your SD card now you cant get into recovery cause it wants to update your radio every time you start the boot loader (Power + Vol dwn)?
am I right?
The way I work around this is to pull the SD card while the boot loader checks for update files.
once you have the ability to go into recovery (You can select recovery) push your SD back in and start recovery!
Then when you get the chance via USB Mass storage or with a file explorer on your DInc2 erase the PG32IMG.zip so you don't have this problem again.
If I helped take a second to thank me!?
Edit: DOH!

I think you dont have to erase the PG32IMG.zip just rename to pPG32IMG and if you need to use that in the future just remove the first p and you are good to go.

Please help my htc evo phone doesn't want to start

please help my phone doesn't want to go pass the recovery i try to do a recovery but it tells me that can't mount sdcard and after that goes black and giving me a five or six vibrations anyone knows any knows any fix please Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks from a Noob
Are you able to get access to the bootloader? I'm unsure of where you're problem is. Please outline your steps and where it's failing.
yes am able to get to bootloader but when i get to select zip file to install bam there it goes E:/ can't mount sdcard that's as far as it goes and if i get it to restart i get a black screen with 6 vibrations and a blinking green light. any idea???
well you're trying to install something from the bootloader and we need to get to recovery. Bootloader will try to install whatever is labeled pc36img.zip on the root of your sd card. This can contain installs for radios, recoveries (clockwork/amen ra), splash screens and maybe some other things. If you have a recovery installed you should be able to NOT install form the sd card when you are in bootloader and then load recovery where you would flash your new ROM. If you don't have a bootloader installed, You will need to download one (do a search for Amen Ra or clockwork), rename the install zip to pc36img.zip, move it to the root of your sd card and then in the bootloader when it ask you if you want to install, then you can hit yes. Once the recovery is installed, then you need to load recovery flash everything but your sd card and install a new ROM.
Hope this helps
If you don't have option to go to recovery from bootloader, then you need to put a recovery in PC36IMG form on root of SD card. Then power on by volume down and power button. Bootloader should find and install your recovery.
On another note. Over last 2 yrs, I've seen many people lose recovery, get the 5 vibrates, and never be able to recover from it despite valiant effort. Hopefully this is not your case.

What they need to do is basically reformat the sd card completely, then repartition [if they are].

Stuck in boot, Will pay whoever solves the issue and provides me a step by step fix

Hello,
I'm looking for help as I have exhausted all of my search on google and xda developers and the answer doesn't seem to be there. I'm afraid I might be unable to get out of this one.
I have a huawei ascend P6-U06 I bought it and it came with the international firmware, I had rooted it and flashed miui v5 into my phone, everything was fine but one thing, I was unable to use themer, so about 3 days ago I finally decided to flash omni rom.
I downloaded omni rom and installed CWM recovery and once into the system I selected the zip from my sd card and flashed it, only to find that the phone would not go pass the first screen (stuck in boot and could not be shutdown or anything)
Since I did not do a TWRP recovery (and I don't know how, I'm just a beginner) I was unable to do anything other than the "3 button method" so I looked and found that I could put the UPDATE.APP file on the dload folder and it should work, so I tried it and the UPDATE.APP firmware version is the B125, all good I think this was the Chinese version but it had English and other languages as well, but Chinese seemed to be the main one.
Anyways I had the phone back and it did an update, after the update everything was working fine, I deleted the dload file from the sd card, also I saw that the "system" or the phone itself created a dload file on the internal storage but then once I had themer on the phone I saw myself that I hated the emotion ui and in the first place that was the reason I had put miui into my phone, I still wanted to try omni rom and persistently I tried a second time.
Now this time since I already new that I could just do the dload thingy I thought (what could happen) so I tried again with CWM to flash the omni rom (the latest version) but it gave me an error saying something like the installation was aborted or something like that.
So I went back to having the phone stuck in boot, I put the B125 UPDATE.APP and created a dload folder on the sd card, but when doing the "3 button method" the system gave me an error, I tried downloading the B122 and the B132 and also the B510 but although I have put the UPDATE.APP on the dload folder it just doesn't do it's magic like it previously did.
Now I don't really have money to buy another phone, if I did I would just buy another one (I like the p7) but I don't so I need to fix this issue otherwise I don't have a phone.
The error I get first it gives me some sort of error which disappears once the Android system recovery menu comes up. then the only thing I'm able to see says:
Checking Module MD5RSA.. OK
Checking Module CRC.... OK
Checking Module CURVER.... OK
Checking Module VERLIST....
Huawei SD card update fail.....
cust copying files...
copy cust files successed!
===================
FAIL
===================
Please help me, I'd appreciate if you can do your best explaining as I'm dumb in this matter, (just a beginner as said before) Also I'm attaching a picture of the error message being received when entering the system recovery through the "3 button method"
And as I said on the tittle, I will pay whoever helps me to solve this issue, I need a step by step (with a good explanation if possible) on how to fix it, I will pay $60 via paypal to the person that provides me with the solution.
Thanks for all of your time, I DO appreciate your help and if you have any questions please just ask! I really need to fix this!
Ok, first of all, your picture shows that you already have the KitKat recovery.
Which version of B510 have you downloaded? Is it the update.zip? I'm assuming it is...
Please download the complete update package from here: http://www.huaweidevice.ro/user/con...001C00B510_Firmware_Android 4-4_EMUI--2-3.zip
That is the official, and full firmware update from Huawei Romania.
Once your download has completed, unzip the zip file, and copy the dload folder onto your sd card.
BEFORE placing your sd card back in your phone, try the 3 button method again. You should get into recovery mode, then do a data/factory reset, and clear cache.
Once that is done, put your sd card back in your phone, reboot your device, and reboot using the 3 button method.
Hopefully this will work.
If it fails again, you need to try formatting your sd card, and do the steps above again, without doing a factory reset.
Dear op.... Did you solve your problem? How?

Don't you just need Hisuite, the driver who comes with the phone when you plug in your USB cable? That made asb fastboot to recognize my phone at least.
You don't need ADB, only fastboot. Shut down the phone. Then hold the Vol- button and plug in the usb cable. Release the button after the you see the AscendP6 logo - now you are in fastboot and can flash TWRP. Windows Update should install the drivers (I've never installed HiSuite), just let it search online.
First delete your sd card to FAT32 not NTFS and put update.app to dload folder. then dowbload: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2765202
Power up your phone with volume down. and use Huawei tool kit from that link. select KitKat , unlock bootleder first from dropdown menu, then install stock recovery.
And try to update from stock recovery "3 buttons method"

Hey so far this is the most promising option I've gotten, the only problem is when I go to unlock bootloader it's giving me an error that says "error phone not connected" I've tried getting the drivers from many different ways, one from the hi suite, another letting windows look for it, the other one was I downloaded a .exe named "driver tools" but it doesn't work either, when I connect the phone it does make the sound just as when you connect any device on USB but other than that it doesn't recognizes it on the huawei toolkit. Any ideas?

you may want to flash your phone back. so this consist of
1) read up how to access to Temp CWM
2) download and transfer the full rom to your SD card
3) do a wipe all partition and go to advanced setting, wipe cache
4) install zip and choose from external SD, point to that .zip file for the full rom and apply.
5) installation may take 10min or so do not switch it off. after installation you are good as new.
I believe this should solve your problem, normal if things get bricked is due to config file error could be [syntax, corrupted, missing, setting].
Flashing should solve mostly of it unless the file that you previously accessed require root and cwm does not give permission to the file. that is a permanent bricking.
As always, newbie should not try tweaking permission required files, you end up having bricking the device as there might be no solution to recover it due to access rights. ALWAYS have a back up file so you can at least copy the file back and chmod it.

here is the stock firmware.
https://www.asus.com/Phones/ZenFone_2_ZE551ML/HelpDesk_Download/
its fine if your phone does not talk to your PC now. copy the firmware to your SD card via other means. [card reader etc]
then try my method of flashing it back to original state, you stated that adb dont work, have you tried the temp CWM method yet?
the main goal is to wipe dalvik cache under advanced menu in CWM, and cache partition and all hard reset.
then you flash back your original file.
hope it works for you.

its fine if your phone does not talk to your PC now. copy the firmware to your SD card via other means. [card reader etc]
then try my method of flashing it back to original state, you stated that adb dont work, have you tried the temp CWM method yet?
the main goal is to wipe dalvik cache under advanced menu in CWM, and cache partition and all hard reset.
then you flash back your original file.
hope it works for you.

ive read about the temp cmw method and i cant figure out how to go about it. it says on the instruction that you need to turn on phone before running the cai_dat_CWM. how am i going to do this as my phone will only boot to the asus logo? thanks
just figured it out. I need to boot in fastboot so the phone will get recognized. However, the latest build available on the asus website is still 2.17.40.12. I already have the 2.18.40.12 version. The 2.17 firmware can't overwrite the newer build in temp CWM recovery. Anybody knows where i can download the full rom? Z00A-WW-2.18.40.12?

here is the link for stock but pre-rooted img for latest 2.18.40.12 firmware,,make sure to download Z00A firmware if you have ZE551ML device.. and if I was not mistaken, you may choose to FULL UNROOT in SuperSU apps to go back to stock rom..

you may want to flash your phone back. so this consist of
1) read up how to access to Temp CWM
2) download and transfer the full rom to your SD card
3) do a wipe all partition and go to advanced setting, wipe cache
4) install zip and choose from external SD, point to that .zip file for the full rom and apply.
5) installation may take 10min or so do not switch it off. after installation you are good as new.
I believe this should solve your problem, normal if things get bricked is due to config file error could be [syntax, corrupted, missing, setting].
Flashing should solve mostly of it unless the file that you previously accessed require root and cwm does not give permission to the file. that is a permanent bricking.
As always, newbie should not try tweaking permission required files, you end up having bricking the device as there might be no solution to recover it due to access rights. ALWAYS have a back up file so you can at least copy the file back and chmod it.

Same thing happened to me when I tried flashing the OTA update with my phone being rooted. You have get into recovery mode on the phone and then use ADB to put the original image back to the device to get it back to stock so it will reboot. It worked for me

I already tried it like 20 or more times. The ASUS logo still shown for like 10 seconds and died and came back again (ASUS logo). When I tried to connect it with my laptop, the computer won't recognize the device.

I will try to tell you step by step:
1. Press Power Button + Volume Button
You enter into Recovery Fastboot Option, then Choose Recovery menu using Volume Key (3 Option mostly shown)
then press Power Button (From Recovery Mode), it restart.
2. Then after Restart it shows you (Mostly) Sleeping Android Screen with Error text, then Press First Volume Up Button, and Press Power Button (Power button for a second or two then leave it, IF YOU PRESS MORE TIME, IT WILL RESTART THE PHONE).
3. You can now see the Recovery Menu with Normally appear in other phones also - Reset, Restart, Etc Option.
Hope you will now able to reset your phone...
