NTX-L29C432B180-FULL OTA update not possible... - Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hallo everybody.
Summarizing: with a new, clear Huawei Mate 8 (HUAWEI NXT-L29) I unlocked the bootloader (default Huawei procedure).
I rooted the smartphone using SuperSU and all's perfect - my apps require and gain root permissions.
No, a new OTA upload comes into being.
I try to install: the smartphone reboots and remains stuck on "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted" or whatever...
I try to "fastboot oem lock ******" (the code I obtained unlocking), but it tells me "FAILED (remote: root type is risk)".
I try to reflash the stock ROM (to do a hard reset), either by the "dload" or the "*#*#2846579#*#*" method: it stays stuck on "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted" or whatever...
Any advice? Where am I wrong? And what to do next to update the ROM?
Thank you!

Any suggestion? Come on, guys, you're the best...

First thing to flash OTA - stock recovery. Flash it from fast boot and try again.

Can you tell me step by step? And where to download files?

I'm sorry, your way doesn't work.
The RECOVERY.img is flashed good, but when I try to install the UPDATE.APP, it remains stuck on "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted".

this is normal with unlocked Bootloader.
You can extract SYSTEM.img,CUST.img,BOOT.img and flash via Fastboot
Reboot into Bootloader and flash this 3 img files with this command
fastboot flash boot BOOT.img
fastboot flash cust CUST.img
fastboot flash system SYSTEM.img
and Factory Reset
but this message at startup is normal
"Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted"

Hi,
The same boot loop error also I encountered , and here is how i solved it.
1. First U need to download this tool -> HONOR_6_and_6Plus_Multi-Tool
2. run the Honor6MultiTool.bat
3. it will ask to install universal ADB driver. follow the instruction and install
4. then 6th option will be UNBRICK, Enter ur choice: 6
5. Then u follow the instruction
After that the phone will boot.
If any problem will occur do comment below.
All The Best!!

the device does not enters fastboot mode just show the bootlogo
it enters fastboot but still the device wont boot
can you tell me the commands to flash all files from the update.app from fastboot
maybe that will solve the issue
DOWNLOAD stock firmware (update.app) extract from it Recovery.img system.img boot.img cache.img cust.img.and userdata.img. then turn your mobile in fastboot and connect to usb, open CMD in PC and write CD "path to adb.exe", when you are there, copy extracted files there too and write in CMD this lines:
fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.img
fastboot flash system SYSTEM.img
fastboot flash boot BOOT.img
fastboot flash cache CACHE.img
fastboot flash cust CUST.img
fastboot flash userdata USERDATA.img
when you will finish write FASTBOOT REBOOT and that's all

i tried this already but it did not work
i think flashing all the 22 files from the update.app file will work
or i have to wait till the lollipop update file comes out
my bootloader is unlocked so will my device be repaired under warranty(huawei didn't mentioned voiding warranty by unlocking bootloader while getting the code)

How to reinstall stock rom!?

Hello
I unlocked my bootloader, then installed CWM, rooted then installed unofficial EMUI 4 ROM.
But I was EMUI 3.1 before...
So my Honor 6 didn't work after that and never couldn't boot the ROM
When I try to install CWM again by Multi-Tool, flashing error says that I need to check the confirmation dialog on my device but I cant't access to my device because there is no ROM :|
I installed EMUI 4 stock recovery and now what can I do for reinstall the rom -_-
Is there any way at all?
Have you tried downloading EMUI 3.0 stock ROM and using the three button method after placing it on your SD card? which is power + vol up + vol down?
In order to get back to full stock ROM follow these steps, since you already flashed recovery of a build number I don't know, do it again by following the procedure:
Download your phone's latest firmware and extract system.img, boot.img, recovery.img, cust.img from UPDATE.APP using Huawei Update Extractor tool.
Flash recovery first, using this command.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Flash all other extracted files similarly firing these commands.
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash cust cust.img
fastboot flash system system.img
After doing this put that very UPDATE.APP from which you extracted the files in dload folder of your external SDCARD.
Switch off your phone, and press Vol UP + Vol DOWN + Power button simultaneously.
Your device will now get to the full stock firmware.
Enjoy your out of the box device..!!

Hi Digicoon,
I tried your method to restore to stock ROM after successfully installing KangVip Rom.
Actually this custom rom was intended for Mate7, but beeing a simple port from Honor6Plus (as stated by the developer) I installed on my device without any problem. The only thing I noticed was that my device was no more a Honor6Plus PE-TL10, but a DUK-AL20 which I think is Mate7 model number, right?
The ROM works good but I wanted to revert it back to stock.
Anyway, I tried downloading the kitkat stock rom for my Honor6Plus (it should be PE-TL10_EMUI3.0_Android4.4_V100R001CHNC00B260.zip) , extracted the UPDATE.APP and the four files you stated above, flashed them via fastboot and then put the entire dload folder inside the root of my SD card.
The phone hangs on the boot screen and then boot loop... no way to restore it.
I reverted it back to custom rom (via nandroid backup), even tried to flash the stock recovery.img to use the "Three buttons method" but with no luck, every time it stucks on boot logo and bootloop.
Do you have any idea what could it be? Maybe a "partitions" problem, due to different model number?
Thanks in advance and Merry Christmas
Also work for rooted L04 (TWRP) back to lollipop?

Does this also work in my case?
I have a rooted L-04 with TWRP and the latest b831-software. Now that I realised GPS is not working anymore I want to go back to Lollipop.
Has anyone tried it?
Thanks for your help.

Hi guys, I'm on l29c636 b321 originally and i wanted to downgrade to b200. so i downloaded the b200, and use extractor to extract system, cust, recovery, and boot off the c636b200 firmware. then i proceeded to use fast boot flash to flash. however, now my phone can't start. can anyone help???
my boot loader is unlocked.
Okay so I have figured it out how to get it to work.
So basically, ensure that your bootloader is unlocked.
Download b200, and extract the system, cust, recovery and boot files.
Boot into twrp and flash the b200 image file. Restart and enter bootloader.
Use adb fast load to flash system cust recovery boot Img files. (I don't know if this is necessary, but it works for me)
Restart into emui recovery and do a wipe and reset. (if you don't, you will be stuck on the logo)
Then proceed to restart. And all is done.

Can't Boot into Stock ROM.

So recently i wanted to unroot, relock the bootloader and go back to factory condition. I flashed xposed too but i just deleted the app so idk if its still up?!
Unroot worked with supersu.
But then i wanted to relock the bootloader with the "Multi Tool 8".After relocking the bootloader I couldnt boot in my system so i Unlocked it again and booted into android 7!
Sadly i wanted to relock the bootloader so much, that i wiped /vendor and all other things except system and sd card in TWRP.
If i want to boot into system now , i cant. Either with bootloader unlocked or locked.
Only things i can do is going into fastboot mode or access eRecovery.
ADB and Fastboot Commands are working.
I tried to Rollback my device but its not working. What should I do now?
Sorry for my Bad englisch. My main Language is German.
1. Download honor 8 firmware from huawei firmware finder
2. Extract system.img, boot.img, recovery,img with huawei extractor tool
3. Unlock bootloader
4. Flash system.img, boot.img, recovery.img with fastboot with commands fastboot flash system system.img, fastboot flash boot boot.img,fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
4. Boot to recovery mode and factory reset and wait
5. Done. Now it should boot into the system.

I will Look into that tomorrow.
Do I need TWRP recovery for the factory reset? Because in Stock Recovery i cant factory reset.
So I would flash system boot and TWRP instead of original recovery?
i cant factory reset!
Flashed system, boot and recovery successful.
But when i want to factory reset it stops by 16%

[HELP!] Flashing TWRP stuck!

I'm using an honor 8 and i'm following along to XDA's instructions. I flashed TWRP and did the command 'adb reboot recovery' and now my phone has been on the "your device is booting now..." screen for quite some time. Is there some way to fix this?

If you can boot into bootloader mode:
1. Download a firmware compatible for your honor from firmware finder for huawei
2. Download and install huawei extractor
3. Extract system.img, boot.img, recovery.img from the firmware
4. Plug your phone to the computer and boot into bootloader
5. Open command prompt and type:
Fastboot flash system system.img
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
6. Shut down your phone and boot into recovery
7. Perform a factory reset
8. Should be done!
