Hard brick - SOLVED

Hi !
To prepare the Nougat update I wanted to go back to original rom but I'm currently stuck on honor blue screen. I was on CM13 with encryption erase.
For info I was on FRD-L09C432B131
What I did :
Flash the original recovery
Put the dload folder with the full rom uptade.app inside
Reboot with vol+ and vol-
Installation was ok
But at the reboot i'm stuck on honor screen
I tryed to wipe data/factory reset and cache from the original recovery but doesn't change anything.
Every help is appreciate.
Thanks guys.

I unlocked again my bootloader but wasn't able to format custom partition, message : FAILED (command remote not allowed)
I'm not able to erase anything too, same message.
I was able to flash boot, recovery, cust and system. I flash again the rom with dload but get stuck again in honor screen. A Factory reset don't resolve my problem.
I think my encryption is still broken because when I unlock again the bootloader and flash TWRP I can't wipe anything, message : Failed to mount '/data' (Invalid argument). Unable to recreate /data/media folder.
Is there a way to do anything ? This phone is driving me mad..
Thanks !

You need to flash first the rollback update from honor site, then flash b131

I was not on Nougat. Are you sure ?

I'm actually on the same boat. I can't seem to get it working either, I first did the rollback update from the Honor site than flashed the update firmware they had on there. That didn't work. Then I tried going into e-recovery, and try doing that. This say's it was successful, but I'm still stuck on the honor screen on boot.

To be clear again I wasn't on Nougat, were you ? If yes your problem is not the same. Good luck anyway..

Problem fix. I was using an old twrp, the one I used to root the device. I tryed with the TWRP suggest for flashing CM13 and I was finally able to wipe the DATA partition.
After that after flashing the B131 via the dload folder I could boot to the original rom.
Hope my wasted night fighting with my H8 can help someone.
I'm a morron but I definitely hate Honor.

Bricked honor 8 please help

Hello, today while trying to get back to stock i wierdly bircked my honor 8
I flashed the stock recovery and stock boot img
Then i flashed a rollback package and a marshmallow package which i used for this same thing before.
Now the phone didnt start for a solid 30 minutes and ive decided to reflash the rollback and marshmallow package, but after i flashed the rollback got stuck at the boot logo, not even the stock bootanimation showing up.
The phone doesnt reboot neither in any of the recoveries nor in bootloader.
Any help would be appreciated.

Okay so after all of this i managed to reboot to bootloader and get my hands on one of my previous unlock codes. So now ive got an unlocked bootoader, but after fashing twrp the phone is stuck at the 'your device is booting now' when im trying to get in it

I thing you have flashed the wrong TWRP, check for the latest version or at least the one for your build

uh well, hello there again.
i've tried to do the dload method which failed(i used lots of versions tho none worked)
and i've tried flashing marshmallow twrp, which at the moment, well, it cannot mount anything. no partition can get mounted.
Does any of you guys have an idea of what i could try?
thanks in advance

Does it mean that you have access to TWRP ? if TWRP cannot mount a partition, go into mount section, tick system, data, boot, vendor and then reboot to TWRP again. Then try your previous operation. If it cannot mount data, go into wipe, advanced wipe, and click on format data, then restart TWRP and try again

seems like i somehow broke the partition table, cause it shows every storage as 0 mb and mounting isn't available, cant tick the option. Looks like i will have to find some service center to repair it by my own cost, by the end of the month. Though im giving it around the 25th so i got some more time till then, so maybe i find some solution to this problem.

Hey, so I managed to make the phone work again.
I have flashed boot cust recovery recovery2 and system from the italian marshmallow firmware, then I flashed that same firmware using dload method(tho it failed at 99%)

You tried only once? Maybe you should now try to flash TWRP recovery and restore a backup made by TWRP. I can provide you one but for FRD-L09, not another. Another method would be to flash the rollback package and then retry flashing an EMUI 4.X ROM (dload method for both), hope you'll figure it out

I think i expressed myself wrong.
That was how i got the phone to work.

Oh lol I misunderstood because of the "it failed at 99%" and I thought the phone wasn't rebooting , no matter I'm glad you succeeded

honor 8 cant install any firmware and doesn't boot

hello iv been trying to flash emui 5.0 firmware but i always get the same error when i flash the system.img it says FAILED (remote: sparse flash write failure)
and when i tried to flash the cust.img i get FAILED (remote: partition error). so like you figured i damaged the partition
i tried to wipe cache, format data but still doesn't work to flash the system.img and the cust.img but the boot and recovery images are fine to flash.
i also tried the dload method with no luck. so it started of when i updated to nougat 7.0 emui 5.0 from emui 4.1 marsmallow 6.0.1 it didn't update properly and i got some other version
with only google voice input, and crashed. so i decided to flash it manually instead in fastboot but before i flashed i went in to twrp and wiped everything and formated the data.
then i flashed the boot,recovery,cust,system images from the update.app to emui 5.0 for my device but then i damage my partition and got stuck on a boot loop. after that i went
in twrp and wiped everything again flashed the images again but then system and cust img failed errors above. would appreciate any assistance thank you.

are you able to flash any custom ROM?
Try booting to TWRP from TWRP and see if it makes any different instead directly wiping and booting.

You need to flash the TWRP 3.1 for EMUI 5.0. Once you flash the correct file you can boot.
Do one thing, remove USB and just press power key, it will boot to system.

Sorry my bad english.
If you connect the phone to PC, you can browse the internal or external storage?
If you do, or you have an sdcard, use it to dload mode to flash firmware. Use rollback package to revert back to an old firmware. And don't use twrp to flashing firmwares. Its wont work perfectly with nougat firmwares. Dont use it.
From twrp did not work for me. This method send my phone to bootloop and later just booting to erecovery, or stay a permanent bootloop. TWRP gone and just the dload method works 100 percentage.

best part is your efforts paid and you restored your phone.

Stuck in "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted" screen.

Hi everybody, I've been trying to unlock root on my Honor 6x BLN-L21 with Android 7 EMUI 5 (updated from Android 6) and I found myself following this guide. At first something went wrong as I got this error: "failed to mount /system (Invalid argument)", so I went under Advanced Wipe section of TWRP 3.1.1.0 and changed system partition format from EXT4 to FAT and then back to EXT4, and it solved. The installation of SuperSU didn't show any error message but as soon as I reboot my mobile from that screen, I get the screen in the title. Of course it won't let me run any update, meaning Volume UP + Volume Down + Power would just let me stick in the "Honor" blue screen with no progress showing. I need help to solve, thanks in advance.
PS: The only thing I get is: "No OS installed!". I'm astonished....

Use this guide to fix your phone. If you have any questions about the steps just ask.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73954487&postcount=240
TIP: If the version number you download wont flash using dload then try a lower version. For example. Even though my phone was on BLN-L24C567B366 when i messed it up i could only flash the BLN-L24C567B360 files. I updated once the process was complete.
Tip 2: Instead of Super Su. Try magisk instead. It allows you to root your phone and still use apps that refuse to work on rooted devices(pokemon go for example but theres many more.) You simply flash magisk with twrp and install the magisk manager apk. Everything is here. https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445

This is gonna fail for sure, as every kind of update I try using dload method will permanently stick at 5%.
EDIT: I could solve installing via TWRP this custom ROM.

I See, What You Need To Do Is Use, Is Use HurUpdater And Download The Latest Full OTA MF, MAKE SURE IT IS APPROVED. Rename The TWRP File That You Used To "recovery.img" In Order To Keep TWRP.
HurUpdater:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/development/tool-flash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279
Make Sure Ur Doing This On Ur MicroSD Card
Follow The Instruction, Rename Each File As Same As The Image
Put HurUpdater As The Same Folder At The Firmwares

So I followed those steps.
At the end of flashing got the same errors.
Phone now is showing only the honor logo.

Delete Everything Like Format Data, Clearing Internal Storage, Vendor, All Files In Internal Storage Gone...
Make Sure TWRP Says That There Is No OS Installed
Then After That Flash The TWRP File That Your Using As A Recovery Using TWRP Just Incase It Disappears. Clear Everything Thing That Twrp Has An Error Of.
Then reboot to recovery
That Might Fix The Errors
Dont Worry Ive Done This Before And My Device Was Fine For Flashing Roms And Other Stuff.
And Maybe Redo It What I told You
I Know That This Is Probably Gonna Work Because I Cleared Everything Before And Install A Rom And I Was Fine Or Install EMUI
Flash Hurupdater Again I think If The File Are There
You Could Install A Custom Rom If You Want Though, But You Will Have Worser Battery Life Though

Fixed it thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
