revert back to stock using TWRP?

[Guest craigb87]

I've used a few different custom ROMs that I've flashed with TWRP but I'd now like to revert to stock. I haven't got any backup of the original ROM.

How can I revert back to stock? When I download the firmware from the Huawei site it just gives me a zip file with the UPDATE.APP (IIRC) file. Can I use that to flash with TWRP or not?

Thanks in advance

you don't need to go to recovery to apply/install that update, you can either force update or just update using system update. Just extract that file then copy dload folder including the update to your SD Card then access flash update by VolUP+VolDown+Power hold for few sec, then it should update.

I've tried that but I just get the pink screen (download mode?). Did I read a while back that this method only works if the rom that you're trying to flash is a newer version, ie it won't 'update' to an earlier version?

 

I've tried lots of roms and the status bar disappears a lot on them all. I'm just trying to get a stable rom if anybody has any suggestions?

 

Thanks in advance
