Hello, actually on my P6 I have Omni Rom 4.4.2 (this one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2673839 )

I have some hardware problems with my device so I want to send it in WARRANTY, so now I need to return on stock firmware and revert to a stock boot+recovery+rom

Is this the right way to REVERT all to stock? :

1. I need a boot.img (a stock one, I think B118, it is a good rom for warranty?) <---- where to find it
2. I need a recovery.img (a stock one, B118? ) <---- found this (http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23252070760973625 )
3. I downloaded a stock rom B118 on my SD (dload/update.app)
4. Have I to UNROOT my device?

Thank you very much

FAIL to revert


Very fast & usefull installer, but I can't to revert to a stock firmware.

Now I've installed a Custom CyanogenMod unofficial on TWRP, no problems with zip firmware update or downgrade, but actually impossibile to install an official update/downgrade (update.app)

Dowloaded a stock B118
inserted it on SD in dload folder
rebooting (vol+)+(vol-)+power
initially has started the flashing process, but after a second appair FAIL...

You need to flash stock recovery image to be able to install stock ROM by dload method.

To reverd from KitKat to Jelly Bean first install that: https://mega.co.nz/#!9oEHUTiR!uVKEq6PYefO-p4_kJcJpHw2luWZT8QZ5yrnedx4rug4 via dload folder, after that install 4.2.2 stock firmware again via dload folder. That is a middle step, without it you can't downgrade from KitKat to Jelly Bean.

Updated mega.co.nz link

Hi,

To all who tries to download the unavailable mega.co.nz-download, please try this link:

h**p://dl.vmall.com/c01l4l4a2y (please replace the ** with tt ... due low posts I cannot post outside links)

It's a very slow server. The file (117MB) took about 10-15 minutes to download, but it's the same file as the mega.co.nz-link.

Current state:
Cyanogenmod 10.1 unofficial

I'm not like a super noob, I just dont have the time to investigate and try&error due high workload in my real life :(

Thank you so much

Since its not upgraded to kitkat it wont be too hard to revert back. You need stock recovery flashed and one of the last jellybean stock roms (my suggestion is B132). If you dont have a link to download stock rom just search the web for huawei p6 B132 or whatever you would like to revert to. As for the recovery you can extract it from the stock rom file with this tool

Read the instructions and extract the recovery only nothing else is needed.
Connect the phone in fastboot mode with pc and flash the recovery with cmd. Tutorials on using adb&fastboot are easily found on internet. Before flashing it make sure you have a sdcard with dload folder on it containing update.app file from the stock rom. After flashing enter recovery and wait for it to finish. That would be about it. Ask anything that you dont find easy or understandable to do.

    Try downgrading to B132 instead of B118
