Stock ROM instead of carrier's branded one? - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

Hi,
I'm considering buying Honor 8 and I need to know what steps will be needed for flashing manufacturer's stock ROM instead of carrier's branded one? Is it required unlocked bootloader or is there any more simple method?

There is no stock rom currently available.

If you still use HUAWEI's official ROM, no need to unlock your bootloader. Just wait for HUAWEI releases the files.
But so far there is no files yet avaliable for Honor 8.

Stock ROM here.
This is for the FRD-L09 model only.

Aha, nice sharing. Although I couldn't find any ROM in EMUI website yet, for stock ROM, better stick with official website.

First OTA update of 2016. for DAV-701L

Today Huawei release the first update for eu model DAV-701L. Nothing special, just system and communication signal improvements and google security patches.
The change is visible in custom version-D002.
Yeah nice to see a fist update for DAV-701L. Now wait for Marshmallow 6.0
Changelog see picture
installing this update, the phone is locked . Do you know where I can find the original firmware ? I tried to look everywhere but can not find .
I had to restore the Asian , but I would put this :
DAV - 701LV100R001C100B002
thanks to those who can help me
Just a short question, I want to buy a DAV-701L european model. I read is shipped with android 5.0.1 version. It is upgradable to 5.1.1 via OTA now? Thanks for reply!
DAV 701-L have 5.1.1. This OTA update change nothing.

Sent from my HUAWEI NXT-AL10 using XDA-Developers mobile app
u can only fully remove the chinese stuff by unlocking bootloader and rooting ur phone. then u can delete all that stuff by using titanium backup, for example, or by manually deleting the stuff via a root explorer.
aside from that, some L29 roms actually work in terms of notifications but yeah if u wanna stick to AL10 firmwares, im guessing thats a good point @notifications. thats actually the main reason i switched to crossflashing L29 firmwares...

That's weird. I do see that that @chudy_85 does not have a B571 for TL10 listed on his thread, however if there is TWRP backup available then someone did have the firmware.
@mshirq,
If you have got to B560 you probably know how to get back to B522. You might get a OTA for B571 once you are on B522, if your phone is from Europe. I have a L09 and I got an OTA update for B571, after I changed my region to eu and installed B522, I cant bet on the same for TL10 though.
To find your region, go to project menu and check the vendor and country information under network info. Let me know what you see there.
I managed to get my TL10 B560 updated to B571 via Ota upgrade. I unrooted it, changed the region to EU, and after a day or so of checking the Updater in Settings, I got the 300mb update. So it is possible.

How ironic, first phone to get nougat and the last to get oreo. Meanwhile pie is out so you're a little late LG.
Anyway how does it perform for those of you that took the leap?
I'm not too terribly excited to upgrade to oreo unless performance is at least equal to what I am getting now.
My note 3 got slower and slower with every upgrade.

This is the OTA update straight from my V20. This is NOT repeat NOT flashable in TWRP. Do not flash in TWRP. Also this is NOT repeat NOT rooted or anything else. I am emphasizing all of this to cover all bases.
Good luck to everyone with making ROMs with this.
