Installing Kangvip slim - Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This is my first Huawei phone. I love the phone and the software and everything. It's great. But I love tampering with my phones. I have rooted and installed TWRP. Now I want to install a rom. Kangvip seems to be the best so that's where I'll go for now. My phone specs and firmware specs can be seen in the photo. What must I do to install KangVIP? A simple wipe and install won't work I think from my fw.

One one way is to read the appropriate thread where everything has been answered around a zillion times already :good:

And another would be an easy step by step instructions by someone.. I'll pray for the second one and wait a bit.

So... Correct if I'm wrong. But are these the steps I must do? My specs are at first post.
1 Install stock B170
2 Install stock B350b (NXT-AL10C00B350)
3 Install TWRP (since it will be overwritten by stock)
4 Install latest KangVip

Do note the FRP lock issue :good:
Otherwise, sounds proper (did it like that as well)!

What fingerprint lock issue?

In that case just flash away! :good:

So if i flash this rom i will lose fingerprint?

You might. Some do, some don't.

Please help finding recovery.

Hi all,
I reset my MT7 TL10 phone today. And I installed stock recovery hoping that I will get updates but it is still not updating. I think the stock recovery doesn't belong to my version. I took it from the root and unlock thread.
I shall be much thankful if someone help in this regard.
My exact version is this attachment. It is international version.

Thanks Simona Simmy. I downloaded one from Huawei site one. I extracted according to the instructions for Huawei software extractor. But unfortunately the only recognizable file is system.img. There the other files are unknown image files. I don't know which one is recovery.

New Unbrick method for unlocked phones?

I recently saw the post below which suggest different method for Unbricking the phone. It uses "flashing transfer package" which is only 20Kb! and needs to be installed with a very strange method. The good thing about this method is you don't need to unlock your device which sounds very promising for people like me.
http://pantomath.xyz/how-to-unbrick-honor-6-from-android-m/
However, It didn't work for me maybe because I have H60-L02 instead of L04
I just wonder is anybody tried this method? Is there anyway I can make my own transfer package for my phone?
I explained my problem in this thread in details:

Yes. I guess it's probably for different device as mine is H60-L02
You can try to reset your phone to factory settings by going to the recovery menu... then try this again...it's for h60 global... 807,805,804,810...but i don't know about h60-l02...maybe you are right...but it worth it to try...

Still doesn't work....
Do you know why the boot screen of my phone changed after I upgrade it with OTA rom? It doesn't show the Huawei logo anymore. I attached it for your consideration.

I think it's because of the beta state of the OTA rom...i hope it will be fixed in the stable version...

Download your Original Firmware L29CxxxB180.
Download Huawei Extractor and extract from the Update.app Boot,Cust,Recovery and System.img
and put in your Adb/Fastboot Folder.
Reboot in Bootloader and flash the 4 img files via Fastboot.
After flashing Factory reset

Which Version is your M8?

HiSuite_NOT_SUPPORTED_USE_AT_YOUR_OWN_RISK_OR_USE_ERECOVERY sounds like a nice version. How did you rebrand?

Ah, it's probably something left by Funky then. I wouldn't update. I'm not sure how the hisuite method works, but check if you changed back DNS.
Most likely it will just install the version of C636 you already have, and wipe as well.

Im on B183 but B190 is on my phone asking me to restart but if i do wont i loose root and twrp that i have installed ? Thx
You aren't giving me all the digits but I assume you are using C567. I don't believe so and if I need can always re-root and flash again.

I just checked and my device is not rooted anymore. You would need to go through the root process again. I suggest the rebranding instructions post.

Get the new one to be safe.
