Same thing here. I stopped trying to get EMUI back.
When reverting from their EMUI 5 Beta, I was not able to get back to stock ROM using EMUI 4.x.
Had to install Lineage OS 14.1 to have a usable phone.

That can easily be done via dload method bro. I have done more than 20 times on 6X. With Huawei/Honor you Break and learn this ?

Phone model and build number? I will try to help
Honor 6X
Model: BLN-L21
Build Number: BLN-L21C900B300

That is the intermediate build they gave us to Downgrade after the Beta - but it never worked right to go back.
Right now I'm at that one, and no Bloatware at all (Practically an empty Android 7.0) using EMUI 5.0

I had to play back some Images extracted from other ROM's to get it back into that state.
Using the remote Imagine feature (EMUI over WiFi) always fails in the first 5/7% ...

This seems to be after generic downgrade. Let me check the files and will let you know if can do anything

dload not working

Tested Devices:
Huawei GR5 BLL-L22.

Hello all,
I just wanted to put this guide out there for anyone struggling with restoring stock after flashing a custom nougat rom/TWRP. It took me several days to figure out this method, which has never failed to get me back to stock after screwing with my phone. You can also use this if you accidentally wiped data without removing your fingerprint.
.
I followed your method but the dload part didn't work for me. My phone started but the firmware has lot of problems. Most of the stock apps are not there. Camera and sounds not working. Icons of most installed (GApps and others) do not show up in stock launcher. I tried to install twrp and custom rom again but now FRP is locked and bootloader is still unlocked. OEM unlock option is greyed(not accessible). I can't upgrade through *#*#2846579#*#* method. There is no update option in settings. Build number of phone is being shown NRD90M test-keys and model number as generic_a15. Any solution? because phone is useless for me. I can't even call because of no sound. NFC and 4G are continuously turning ON and OFF automatically.

Now flash the oeminfo file for your model, then flash the small data file of 700-800 MB via twrp. .
Once done, all should be fine, if not, flash the fulll firmware via dload post above steps. All should be fine 100%

From where can I get oeminfo and small data file. I don't have twrp currently because in process I flashed recovery, boot and system files extracted from Update.APP. I am unable to flash Update.APP from sdcard both by volume+, vloume- and power button method and *#*#2846579#*#* methods. When I try to flash the update.zip using adb fastboot, it shows a message that andoid-info.txt is missing.

No need to roll back. Install twrp and flash data file. Let me get it for you
