Hi guys, so, I've got the huawei Honor 8 and recently I updated it to android 7 nougat beta. I'm in Italy and here has already come out the official nougat update but the tutorial said that I had to downgrade to marshmallow first. I downloaded the update.app file and I put it in my sd card and rebooted in erecovery and flashed it, but it did the animation for like 1 and a half hour I rebooted it too but it was stuck. So I searched online and I found that I had to flash the rollback package first so I flashed it and here comes the problem: my phone is completly stucked in the "boot" mode and keeps restarting. I tried everything: flashed recovery, system, clust , boot I even tried to try to flash the marshmallow rom but it won't boot in erecovery mode, so I tried to flash again nougat but it does the same thing: no ERECOVERY!!!
So, what shoud I do?
bump please!

Go look on the MoDaco site.
There is a guy called Paul O'Brien who I think had something to do with Honor.
He claims that you can't brick or soft brick a Honor 8
I'm sure he will talk you through what ever you need to do

I think im stuck in nougat
i have updated my honor 6x to nougat through firmware finder. now this is my build no BLN-L22C675B310.
i tried to downgrade to MM but there is no roll back package for this build no
so i tried to format and wipe entire ph from twrp but the twrp from LOS download section is not booting even after completely power off then tried to boot into recovery not working. i think its for MM. so i tried twrp 3.1 berlin recovery
this time i can enter into recovery and i format data and wipe everything many times nothing happens after reboot it boots to nougat.

You can be happy that you have still access to the system. So is a lottery with rollback packages (ehm
edit:
How go to MM without rollback package, via TWRP:
1. download twrp for MM, flash him, reboot recovery
2. make a factory reset in twrp, reboot recovery
3. flash full firmware MM (right firmware if not sure is it right don't flash it!!!)
4. reboot recovery, twrp is now replaced from stock recovery
5. tap factory reset in stock recovery
6. reboot, done
Guys, I dont take any responsibility about your device... I always can help you but is really possible to brick your device with this method (...corrupted .zip, unconsciously change zips etc) Ok? Thx

twrp for mm is not working on N. i tried to flash all the MM twrp recoveries they are not booting only twrp for N was working but its not wiping the device.
i have some experience on these recoveries when i was in MM. you can wipe your complete system,data and everything only from twrp recovery available on LOS 13 download section. remaining all twrp will not do the job. so finally we need good twrp for N.

Most likely you can somehow still get your device working.
Have you tried to download UPDATE.APP of the firmware you have/had. You could use huawei update extractor to get system, boot, cust, and recovery images from it and then flash them in fastboot.

I think it's best to test first with same firmware, because I think it has better chance to work and if it works you can install TWRP --> take back up and then safely try to update.

If you are on everything stock KK update to MM with B530 use force update or local update. LP is not required in between.
Hie Guys
Good day
I have an india version of honor 8 FRD-L02 with noghat B340 update (latest in india).
I ran into a problem when i tried to return back to full stock and locked bootloader.
Things i did which didnt helped :
1. Had unlocked Bootloader and TWRP (latest).
2. Taken full backup of my stock EMUI 5.0 rom in twrp.
3. Used custom roms for a while and now while returning back to full stock i restored the old EMUI 5 backup and i was back on EMUI 5 fully functioning.
4. Flashed Stock EMUI 5 recovery and it flashed well.
5. Now i am on stock emui rom and stock recovery now i wanted startup warnings to vanish.
6. I tried to relock bootloader via fastboot and it asked for full wipe...and fone formatted itself via factory reset and on restart no warnings of unlocked phone but the fone booted into Erecovery with a warning that data partition needs to be formatted.
tried formatting but as i reset my fone, the fone goes back to stock recovery and doest start.
but if i unlock bootloader again, the fone boots up fine after the warning message.
Can anyone help me to go back to full stock with no startup warnings.??
thanks
you can try booting into bootloader
flash twrp
format data
boot to bootloader
flash stock recovery
boot to system
(you may still have the warning message as bootlaoder will be in relocked state)
If you want your phone locked and not re-locked, provided that you are starting from nougat and your bootloader is unlocked: use rollback package and then flash an emui 4 firmware image, your bootloader will be locked not relocked
Download the latest firmware from here: http://www.hihonor.com/in/support/
Then using my guide here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/restoring-relocking-bricked-frd-l04-t3666360
Flash it on ur phone. After that u will be on marshmallow. Then do a full update and u will be on Nougat with a locked bootloader.

Huawei did it but not Honor. All the rollback packages and full firmwares can still be found on their website.

The company goes down.
I have been trying to revert to stock with no luck. What I want to do is install the latest update, but I can't because I had twrp installed. I flashed the original recovery. The problem is when I try to use eRecovery I get "Getting package info failed" error. when I try to download the b385 full update for the FRD-L04 I get a dead link. I was able to download the rollback package, but will I be able to get back to the latest version after I install the rollback package? when I try to use other update packages for my phone I get "Incompatibility with current version" error. Do I need to lock my bootloader in order to update? The good news is that my phone works fine, bad news is that I can't up date.
build number: FRD-L04C567B385

Thanks for the link, I just been to heck and back with this phone. first I uninstalled Magisk. After that my phone wouldn't boot, it would just hang on the blue screen after the initial boot screen. I tried to find a stock boot Image for my version. Once I installed that my phone would boot loop so I managed to get into fastboot and flash TWRP. Once in TWRP I restored my B360 backup and got my phone working again. Then I flashed the stock recovery. Tried to boot into the stock recovery but that wouldn't load. Some how I got it to install the rollback package and now i'm at version B300. Good news is I'm back to stock and can boot int the stock recovery. Time to see if I can update to the latest version.
Edit I think I might have a problem. It won't let me update also it shows my phone as "FRD-L04C900" not "FRD-L04C567" is there any way I can fix this?

I think you will have to restore you oeminfo partition backup through twrp.
On mr FRD-L09, I had to relock my bootloader, then get the rollback package and put the .app on my SD card and hard flash it, then do the same with the rom .app file. Thet got me back to stock marshamllow, and I just let all the updates run through until I'm now on the latest.
Stock is missing some bits, and has some irritations, but the camera is sooo much better than custom roms, and GPS works, as does Android Pay etc. I've not bothered rooting, AdGuard does the ad-blocking and the rest is liveable.
Well I think I'm my phone is screwed. I can't boot into recovery and when it boots it bootloops once and then it is stuck on the "your device is unlocked and can't be trusted. Fastboot still works fine I can lock and unlock the bootloader. I can flash Recovery and TWRP in Fastboot but neither one will boot. I think I might have flashed the wrong update or it happened when I flashed the rollback package. I want to try DC Phoenix but they won't let me buy credits because my PayPal account is unverified. I have downloaded the "Honor 8_Firmware_FRD-L04_Android 6.0_EMUI 4.1_C567B122_United States_Nonspecific" from the hihonor.com site. I extracted it and flashed the recovery, boot, and system image through fastboot. The phone still won't boot into recovery or boot into the OS. Is there a way to fix this or is it time for a new phone.
Thank you everybody for your help.
Ok my phone is fixed. What I did was buy 15 credits for DC Phoenix and flashed the "Honor 8_Firmware_FRD-L04_Android 6.0_EMUI 4.1_C567B122_United States_Nonspecific" package. When I rebooted my phone it automatically went into ERecovery and downloaded and installed the B162 update. I was able to fully boot after that It updated to B360 and then B388.
Thank you everybody for your help.

How did you flash the file you mentioned above? Did you put it on the SD card and used TWRP?
Also, what is so special about that file?
I have the L14 (64gb US version) and just about the same exact problem you describe.
If you have any extra steps that would help me recover mine that would be great.

I followed the instuctions for the honor 7. I would recommend finding the full update firmware for your phone. It took me a lot of googling to find it. Make sure it is the correct firmware, you need to match the numbers before the B-- for me it was (FRD-L04C567) and for you it would be (FRD-L14????) I hope this helps.

After you flash the firmware, you must format data with emui recovery, and it will boot up
After trying different methods, this one works
Download
1 .Honor 8_FRD-L04_Rollback_Package_from_Android7.0 to Android 6.0_C900B300
2. Honor_8_Firmware_FRD-L04_Android_6.0_EMUI-4.1_C567B122_United_States_Nonspecific
Put on dload (sd card) #1 after shutdown the phone and put on the folder dload (Sd card) #2. after reboot your phone starts with android 6.0
Try this

Ok so i had the exact problem, im not sure if this will help but what I did was flash my cust recovery system and boot through bootloader, I then put the dload folder on my sdcard with the update.app in it, from there I put my phone into download mode so hold all 3 buttons until it goes into download mode. Once there it will automatically install the update.app, and you should be good to go. If not than go to recovery mode do a factory reset and wipe the cache and see if that works.
