since i rooted my phone huawei honor 6 L02 i cannot perform the automatic update, i downloaded update.app from the emui website with the right build number, i put it in my sd card "dload" folder and when i chose "local update" on my phone, it boots in to recovery. I found the "dload" folder in recovery and when i try to open it it says "no files found" PLEASE HELP ME I REALLY NEED YOUR HELP
How to find dload folder using stock recovery??
Or if you are using CWM you can't flash update.app with that recovery.
You need to be on stock recovery to update. TWRP or CWM does can not install official updates.
And even if you are on stock recovery updates may fail (especially OTA:s) if you have modified certain stock system files while rooted.
is this thread helping? http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-6/general/honor-6-stock-roms-t2963180
Old, good, general method of rooting huawei y560-u02 sc7731g(spreadtrum phone) !!!
Without Kingroot / Kingoroot and other bloatware (it's my own opinion)...
Download twrp recovery( it's ported by me) :http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/recovery-twrp-2-8-5-0-huawei-y560-u02-t3386486
Flash it using adb/fastboot .
Download SU :https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1MnFzuGjoAPOEZQUmUydWx6TE0/view?usp=sharing
Download SuperSu: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1MnFzuGjoAPUkJRNnBJTHEzY0U/view?usp=sharing
Copy zip file to sdcard, or micro sdcard, then flash zip file via twrp recovery.
Your device is rooted! Congrats
Now install basybox :https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1MnFzuGjoAPUk5qRlFmc25lTU0/view?usp=sharing
Install terminal emulator :https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1MnFzuGjoAPVEthSF9mSU8yb0U/view?usp=sharing
You'll do it on your own risk
Thanks to all !
In joy!
The custom rom
Hello there, thanks for posting the TWRP, do you have a link for a custom ROM?
This is now deprecated

Yes this is Systemless, OTA should be fine - I've manually flashed OTA via dload but not tested normal OTA upgrade
will this root method have any drawbacks compared to the standard method( installing twrp and then flasing super su) am i going to be able to do the same things that im able to do with any rooted device? thanks in advice

SuperSu does not currently work on the P9 with Nougat, partially due to lack of loop mount support in the kernel. Kernel sources are needed to rectify this, so I encourage people to email Huawei asking for their Nougat kernel patches.
PHH is not perfect (some apps don't work fully) but it's the best we have right now

ohh okay thanks for the info and also the work, i guess im waiting till the fully working method is out.
I've heard that they will relase the source near this month or the next when they finsh updating every p9
Is it possible to use this prerooted boot.img for l19 honor 8?
No. It's for P9, Honor 8 isn't P9, right?

Thank you for the guide, everything worked as described. I've got my P9 with c432 b378, rooted and TWRP installed.
By testing so far, RootChecker, AdAway (v3.2), Titanium and Reboot (to boot into TWRP or fastboot) all work fine with this phh's SuperUser
PS: It's possible to install Chainfire's SuperSU instead, and Viper4Android works too, see e.g.

Hi all, is that ok to flash on my current P9 L09C432B383 ?
The stock and pre-rooted boot.img states its form .378 but would it be ok on .383?

flash this, V3 is the version i would suggest.
I have installed KatKiss 7.1 v 026.zip According to the installation instructions I should:
Flash the rom
Flash the SuperSU zip
Flash gapps
Wipe cache/dalvik
Reboot
There is a .superSU file already in teh system folder in the KatKiss zip file.
Do I need to install SuperSU additionally? I did find this one: downloadmirror.co/1MbB/SR5-SuperSU-v2.82-SR5-20171001224502.zip
I guess gapps means Google apps (yes I am a newby...). What should I install here?

Found it, thanks!
Problem solved, found how to do it.
hi @ante0
after a week of using oreo,i've downgraded to C185B187.
oreo has some issues like draining battery,weird "undetected root" error after installing busybox in /system/xbin (u have to make a new folder in system first,then install busybox) and over heating even when the phone is in charge and fully charged already...
now i need those root files that u gave me before for b182 !:laugh:
Need a boot image (and can u explain what this image does? )
(also how to make one )
and SuperSU-v2.82-SR5
SuperSU 2.82 SR5 if you decrypt: https://download.chainfire.eu/1220/SuperSU/SR5-SuperSU-v2.82-SR5-20171001224502.zip
SuperSU 2.82 SR5 if you stay encrypted: https://mega.nz/#!ZTBQXZra!JHUocH9oMEApULxfLYm9VO5UPhjHNMGLymkXDY_ihhI
Boot MHA-L29C185B187: https://mega.nz/#!IL4gxCaL!_O0B1rm-eys5Ta8CnD5BfXsyLTGM3RXdtZ09v7kWUk4
Or you could just make a backup of your current boot image using TWRP.
If you want to do it yourself in the future:
Download your current firmware from http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/
Extract update.app from downloaded update.zip, download Huawei Update Extractor (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454)
Open update.app in Huawei Update Extractor, rightclick on what you want to extract and select "Extract Selected".
This image can only be flashed using fastboot (at least when I extract it). You can unpack and repack using Android Image Kitchen to make a TWRP flashable image.
What boot is... It's the ramdisk and kernel.

It's just stock boot. SuperSU works fine with it when you're on B182+.
It's only useful if you want to flash back stock boot, to maybe switch to Magisk or if SuperSU doesn't want to update.
I did modify the SuperSU "for_encrypted", I just changed "KEEPENCRYPTED=false" to "true". It just tells the installer to not remove the encryption tag so it stays encrypted.
Edit: one reason to modify boot is to "pre-root", but it's not needed for Mate 9. Another is to remove encryption or verity manually.
