Hi, after trying unlock my bootloader, I couldn't get into recovery mode without "Your phone cannot be trusted" getting stuck on my screen.
I re-locked the boot loader but now when I go into recovery it says "Data Partition is corrupted please format" then it asks me to connect to a wifi network which then just shows errors everytime the password comes up.
I tried to turn on USB Debugging to ADB sideload a firmware, but I can't because the phone has been resetted; if I try to enter a wifi password the keyboard doesnt show it's just the google voice (which doesn't work) with no options. If i skip the wifi option it just goes on the google login and gets stuck on "Checking Info".
Any solutions to the problem please?
EDIT: I just re-unlocked the bootloader and now its permanently stuck on "Your device cannot be trusted, booting now" regardless of what buttons I press during startup
EDIT 2: I fixed it, it was long and complicated but I got it to work, here's how.
1. When flashing TWRP, I realized I was flashing the TWRP for EMUI 4, so I flashed TWRP for EMUI 5. (Make sure Bootloader is unlocked)
First have all the adb/fastboot drivers, for windows shift + right click the folder and click "Open Command here"
Make sure the twrp img file is in the same folder as the adb folder.
On the honor 8 phone, if it is stuck like mine, turn the phone off and then hold Volume Down + Power Button until the download mode is on the screen
Type "fastboot flash recovery (twrpfilename).img"
Once it's done, turn it off and then hold power button + volume up AND volume down at once till TWRP comes on
(Continuously hold it, if the "Your Device cannot be trusted" screen comes on release)
2. (Make sure internal storage and data are backed up externally for this)
Reset system, data, cache/dalvik, and internal storage
3. Download Update.zip and the second .zip from a website on google, search Honor 8 Manual Nougat and click the link from smartstocknews (I can't post links) but do not follow the steps from that website, and also download GAPPS from open GAPPS. Make sure ARM64 is selected and not ARM as well as 7.0
4. After wiping, mount the Honor 8 by connecting it via USB to a computer, and press "Mount" on TWRP
Upload the both update.zip and update_data_full_hw_eu.zip and GAPPS ARM64 7.0 to internal or external storage
5. Exit mount and go to install, install the zips in this specific order and do not reboot in between
A) Update.zip
B) Update_data_full_hw_eu.zip
C) GAPPS.zip
6. Reboot after GAPPS is done (it might show already installed, if that's the case then it's alright, reboot anyways)
Download the 70mb package for firmware downgrade and the latest marshmallow firmware from your regional huawei's website.
Extract the small package and put the .app file in a folder called dload on the SD card and insert it in your phone.
Boot by holding volume + volume - and pressing power, holding all 3 buttons until the phone vibrates.
The package will flash and afterwards you repeat the process, this time using an .app file from the full marshmallow firmware.
The 70mb package installs not matter how messed up your file system is, and makes your phone ready for the MM firmware. This process brings any brick back to life. Good luck.
I too was trying to root my FRD-L04 and apparently used the wrong TWRP because now I get...
Code:
Unable to open ' ' to wipe crypto key
Unable to wipe Data
Unable to format to remove encryption
Failed to mount /data (invalid argument)
and I cant get the keyboard loaded so I can log into my wifi when I do a factory reset. I really have no idea how best to attack this...my phone is bricked I can get into TWRP 3.0.2.0 recovery, sideload, and fastboot (i think). I am currently downloading the stock ROM for my device and will try to sideload it.
I feel I need to fix the data issues thought before trying to load the ROM as I dont think my data partition is working at all now. Does anyone have any suggestions or a step-by-step guide on how to fix my bricked phone?
I've tried all sort of things today but no matter what, I cant get a keyboard working so I guess that means I'm screwed....
EDIT - my phone doesnt have a insertable SD card so I cant fix things the way the above poster suggests.

This is truly one of the worse phones I have ever had when it comes to root and such. My frustration over what, for a unbranded unlocked phone that *should* probably SHIP with root, this phone has and is putting me through is super high.
That being said...so I flashed the new 3.1.0.0 recovery. Before doing that, I had just tried to Unbrick the phone with flashing B162 image with 3.0.3.0...so now the phone is totally frozen in the "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted..." screen. Nothing I seem to do can get it out of this mode.
I want to install the rooted b378 boot.img file I just downloaded, but am unable to find the button commands to get the bootloader loaded. Does anyone have any suggestions in somehow trying to save the day with this damned phone?
much thanks in advance.
EDIT: So I got the phone in bootloader mode by pressing vol up/vol down/power and inserting the usb cable...i flashed the rooted boot.img and twrp 3.1.0.1 to both recovery and recovery2 and now i can get into recovery. I feel like I may actually have a chance now to fix this damn thing...
So can anyone point me in a direction where, from this point with the new recovery loaded and the modded boot image installed, where i can get this phone working?? ill use ANY ROM it dont really matter at this point...
Don't worry. It's really easy, once you know what to do, just realy easy to screw up if you don't. If your phone is a mess just roll back to android 6 using the procedure i described above. Once your phone works, update to nougat and install twrp and root following this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/development/twrp-t3566563
Same issue

I pretty much have the same issue. No keyboard showing, just the stupid voice thing, and the Bootloader is Relocked. How did you get it fully unlocked. I can't get it. I guess let me get that resolved first (the bootloader) and I can try to go from there. Please help me.
UPDATE: Never mind I fixed it. I'm not really for sure how either but I think it mainly was just persistence.
Didn't work
Hello, so earlier today I tried to install RROS newest version in hope to get magisk/unrooting my phone because I'm addicted to snapchat and I rooted my phone with SuperSU earlier but didn't know u can't login to snapchat after that. It failed idk why, (I followed instructions very clearly and searched info from internet before doing that) causing me to brick my phone so when I booted it, it only showed black screen. After couple hours not finding way to get into twrp with my circumstances I managed to flash boot, recovery and system images, I tried to reboot and see what happens, (just in case, I kinda knew I didn't had ROM installed at the time, I also was hoping RROS to boot) nothing happened expect my phone got stuck in boot screen for booting EMUI, which was not installed obviously. Again after couple hours I stumbled to your post and managed to finally get myself into TWRP, I followed again ur instructions and everything was going fine, no erros, not anything. When Gapps was finished installing, I rebooted and again it just got stuck into booting screen. I did press and hold Power button, vol+, vol- and got myself into some kind of ROM installing screen, (hard to explain I don't exactly know what is name of it) and no it wasn't Huawei erecovery screen (Power button & Vol+ and no it didn't work me either saying that "getting package info failed") so in that ROM installing screen it just was stuck at 5% installing, and now I don't know what to do. My phone got locked again and I'm stuck at booting screen.
Note:
I don't have SD Card, should I get one and install stock rom?
Sorry for being kinda unclear but I'm tired it was 7 hours ago I got my phone bricked and have surfed on the web finding for answers ever since.
Also as you might notice, yes, I'm new to modding devices etc but still I'm not totally noob. Please help ASAP.
[SOLVED] So after hour of watching netflix as depressed teen I tried to reboot my phone again just in case, got stuck in booting screen. Then I held Power Button + Vol+ and got myself into EMUI stock recovery mode, I chose wipe cache partition and wipe data/factory reset, after that I rebooted my phone, it was stuck in booting screen for like 2 minutes but then it actually finished booting and now my phone is again functioning and god bless locked & unrooted.
So i want to root my smartphone wich i just adquired yesterday, i followed this guid http://azkazya.blogspot.mx/2017/02/blackview-bv6000-twrp-root-mt6755.html with a FAIL, the phone isnt bricked but when i apply on "update from sd" and select the supersu.rar it appears an error that saids something about OTA, and "INSTALATION ABORTED", can anybody help me please, remember my android is 7.0 as default.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Core 2 (SM-G355M). I received this device from a person close to the family to try to solve a Loop problem in the Samsung logo. I tried to install 5 different Roms with the Odin3 3.10.6 program (Recommended for Android KitKat 4.4.2 systems), but I was unsuccessful after the device was restarted by Odin.
The device's recovery screen practically does not exist. There are no options to access when I enter recovery mode (by pressing the Volume up + Power + Home keys). I tried to install a custom recovery (TWRP and CWM), but I don't have access to them after Odin restarts the device.
As I mentioned before, the device's recovery screen practically does not exist because there are no options on the Hard Reset screen, but it displays a message when I press the volume button up as soon as the Android logo appears. https://ibb.co/FmBtv10 (Error Image). The error '' E: failed to mount / efs (invalid argument) '' appears.
I cannot access the device and retrieve it via ADB using commands because the USB debugging mode cannot be accessed (The phone does not start, so I cannot activate it). I am not aware of the history of this device, I just know that it is accepting any ROM or recovery feature through Odin and presents the error mentioned earlier on the Recovery screen.
I made another topic here in that same FORUM presenting my problem. I followed some steps taken by a FORUM member, but none of the procedures worked. There I explain a little better the procedures that I did and that did not work.
Samsung Galaxy Core 2 (SM-G355M) - Recovery mode does not work.
Helo! I'm new here at FORUM. In a desperate attempt I decided to create an account here and try to solve my problem with a Samsung device. It all started when I received a Samsung Galaxy Core 2 device to fix. It is stuck on the Samsung screen...
forum.xda-developers.com
I researched a little about this error found in recovery mode. Some solutions involved downloading the EFS file. IMG according to the device model and install via Odin. I found only for the model SM-G355H. During the process, Odin had an error loading the files, so I think it didn't work.
Problem summary:
1 - Device does not accept any of the official ROMS (After the cell phone is restarted by Odin it goes back to the Samsung screen).
2 - Cellphone showing error in recovery mode '' E: failed to mount / efs (invalid argument) ''
Some notes: I do not have access to the system using ABD because the debug mode cannot be activated (This ends up limiting things a lot). Options on the recovery screen do not appear and cannot be accessed (Only displays the error message right after pressing the volume button). All basic procedures were done (Download the most updated version of Samsung Drivers - 100% battery - Good quality cable - Odin 3.10.6 to install KitKat Android systems).
All possible solutions are welcome.
Hello,
I have a really old Allview Viva i7G that I try to fix for not booting up.
I tried from recovery menu "Volume down + Power"
wipe data/factory reset​wipe cache partition​
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
no fix.
My dad has had it for 3 or 4 years and is not booting up. The last thing he remembers doing was an automatic system update and since then it appears "Allview" logo and it remains like this.
I found a stock ROM, entered recovery mode "Volume down + Power" then selected "apply upgrade from TF card, selected the .zip file and I get this error:
Verifying update package...
E: footer is wrong
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I searched on the web, I saw a fid is installing TWRP but for installing TWRP I need to enable USB debugging, and I can't do that because the tabled is not booting up...
is there any way to fix this? Or did I download the wrong thing? I attached a screenshot with zip content
Thank you.
