Hello,

I have a huge problem with meinm Honor 5X KIW - L21 .

I wanted to flash the OTA update B320 today .
Before I made ​​it , I have the original recovery installed and the Honor unrooted .
After that I carried out the OTA update . This then broke off with an error .
Now I wanted the Honor boot , but it hangs while Honor logo .
I can not reboot into bootloader .
The only thing that is still possible , the boot into the recovery .

Can the phone still somehow save ?

There is no OTA marshmallow update for the KIW L21 yet
Think you might have flashed KII L21 update instead

No, the statement is false . I was offered this morning on the App HiSuite the OTA update .
My mistake I've just seen the update now
Is it any better performance wise?
Have you tried the pc program to do a recovery or maybe reply update thru the recovery .... Yes the KIW has the B320 update I'm using it right now ...

don't worry

- turn device off
- put USB-cable in your pc (with drivers and adb/fastboot installed)
- press vol-down and power simultan und plug in USB-cable in your phone within one second
- now you are in bootloader-mode
- flash TWRP and do anything you want (restore a backup, flash rom ...)
- I would advise to flash a rom from xda with TWRP instead of ota or update.app through stock-recovery (only problems!):(

So far so good , pretty snappy , batt seems ok . Going on third day with this update . Ui changes in where stuff is located and finally batt percent inside the icon Yeah ... Had some trouble with swipe to unlock while charging butt could have just been the theme.... I use perf mode 90 percent the time I don't like the smart mode at all....

Cool. Still waiting on my KII-L21 (GR5) Nigerian region. No update yet. I keep refreshing Updater everyday. Twice a day even. Nothing.

Plan is when it finds the update, i flash back my stock recovery and update normally. But already getting so impatient. Thinking of moving to CM soon.

I'm full stock was B140 with unlocked boot. I tried some Roms but none have FW support afaik so I went back to stock no root. I found the update thru the updated Hicare app not the one already installed but the one the pc program installs....
