i (think I) killed my Honor 8

I rooted my Honor 8 yesterday and it was working fine, I went to install BusyBox, and accidentally installed SuperSU, and now I couldn't pass the SafetyNet checks, even with Magisk installed. I used TWRP to wipe my device, and went to install the backup. Wouldn't you know, the backup I made was no good.
I'm able to get into TWRP and eRecovery, but since I unlocked the bootloader (and no longer have access to the code), i can't use eRecovery.
anyone want to earn a nice hug for helping me figure this out?

I've been trying to flash the BOOT, CUST, RECOVERY and SYSTEM IMG files I extracted from Update.APP. The first 3 flashed fine, but System is too large.

can you provide the information of build number and which build you want?

i found an english build, here's what it's doing:

what would be sick, is if someone could share a TWRP backup of their device.

I am pretty positive I no long have an OS installed on this device, TWRP is saying I have 0mb in the system partition.
However, the phone WAS on EMUI 5.

Well, that tool is for Nougat so it's no good for Oreo.

If a fresh boot image doesn't work you can always use HWOTA8 and reinstall Oreo.

E. Put hwota8_update.zip, MHA_RECOVERY8_NoCheck.img, and three huawei update package (update.zip, update_data_public.zip, and update_all_hw.zip) files into "HWOTA8" directory.
F. TWRP install sdcard hwota8_update.zip, it will reboot and install update automatically.
I dont understand these steps right i think...

Flashed magisk patched boot image - killed phone :(

I tried to root by flashing the patched boot image as describe in https://forum.xda-developers.com/ho...agisk-root-honor-view-10-mate-10-pro-t3749280. After that, the phone went into a bootloop.
When I get to the eRecovery screen, I tried 'Download latest version and recovery.' It got to 'getting package information from server' but then stopped with 'getting package info failed.'
I then tried 'Wipe data/factory reset' and it rebooted but nothing changed.
I don't know what else to try with this phone. None of the current versions of twrp would run on it. I've never bricked a device in years of rooting.

You need to restore your original ramdisk. Also, you have to patch your own ramdisk.img with Magisk Manager if you want to try rooting your device.
And btw, this is a development forum, not General or Q&A one. Read carefully before trying to mod this device, or you will end up with an expensive brick.

please contact me on hangouts i may be able to help [email protected]

You can download the appropriate images to restore your device below. These are for the US variant (BKL-L04)

I flashed the system.img and the recovery_ramdisk.img. It booted to the eRecovery screen again.
I tried 'Download latest version and recovery' and it failed with the 'getting package info failed' error again.
I then tried 'Wipe data/factory reset' and unlike before, it actually went through and said it was successfully completed. But then it rebooted twice and went back to the eRecovery screen again.
Any ideas on how to proceed from here?
ETA: When I pressed vol up/power after this it went to a screen which said 'software install failed' instead of the recovery screen I thougt it would go to. After the first time, pressing vol up/power goes to the EMUI screen with the options of 'Reboot' 'Wipe data/factory reset' and 'Wipe cache partition.'

Aside from fastboot happing very quickly (< 1 second even for 32 meg recovery_ramdisk.img) everything seems to work fine... The phone just no longer boots - it trys a few times - displaying the "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted" screen for quite a while and the non-animated blue honor screen briefly and then ends up in EMUI eRecovery.
Are these files still up to date? Or perhaps there were newer versions on my phone and that's why flashing the older ones isn't working?
Also worth noting, I'm flashing from a mac with Android sdk fastbook:
$ fastboot --version
fastboot version 0.0.1-4500957
Installed as /Users/sek/Library/Android/sdk/platform-tools/fastboot

Thanks for the info, that tool looks interesting. Where can I get the stock files for BKL-L04 US version Honor View 10?
I have now tried flashing kernel, ramdisk, recovery_ramdisk and system from both of these sources:
- https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1kfNAjIwiMj8wpeDuJayiH2t-srYBBvN3
- http://arter97.com/browse/v10/stock/BKL-L04/
They all appear to flash fine. I tried flashing vendor.img as well, but get an error on that:
$ fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
target reported max download size of 471859200 bytes
Invalid sparse file format at header magic
sending sparse 'vendor' 1/2 (445713 KB)...
OKAY [ 9.718s]
writing 'vendor' 1/2...
FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)
finished. total time: 9.724s
It still doesn't want to boot. I end up in eRecovery each time.
I am able to flash TWRP from Pretoriano80: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-view-10/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-t3769917
It seems to be working properly, perhaps that helps me somehow?

try to install twrp and then do hruupdate from twrp
get your files from firmware finder and search xda forums to how to install those files
its very easy and your system will be back in stock format
after that you can try to root and install custom rom

Hi, what helped you there? I have a similar situation.
"Hi,
I need some advice on what can be done with my Honor View10 as it keeps gracing a bootloop followed by fasrboot mode.
Mine is a C675 variant and I was on 190 when I decided to unroot and update the device to 218. Once that was done, I flashed a patched recovery_ramdisk boot image that was patched using magisk to support it. Worked fine. Did a reboot and it got stuck in a bootloop.
I have tried flashing other patch.imgs too, due instance tried extracting recovery.img of the current version of rom, flashed it, no luck!
Tried flashing the patched version of that, still did not help.
I am on EMUI9, any help please?
Also can anyone help me with the link of one of the latest versions of C675 update please? "
This is what happened to me

Partition error when trying to restore stock recovery with fastboot

I successfully unlocked the bootloader, flashed TWRP, and installed SuperSU, but now I sold my Mate 9, and the guy would like it back to stock. I extracted RECOVERY.img (the stock recovery) from Update.zip, and used the command: fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk RECOVERY.img and got this output:
target reported max download size of 471859200 bytes
sending 'recovery_ramdisk' (54884 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.749s]
writing 'recovery_ramdisk'...
FAILED (remote: partition error)
finished. total time: 1.796s
Any suggestions come to mind what I may be doing wrong?

No, you can not do that. You can use erecovery to back stock or use dload method (https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-rebrand-chinese-al00-mate9-to-t3554656)

With all due respect, don't think all that is necessary. I have been following this comprehensive guide:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/hacking-customizing-managing-huawei-t3589996
and this fellow says I should be able to simply extract the recovery.img from update.zip, and fastboot flash it. If I'm not mistaken you are talking about rebranding it as if I were going to update the phone. I'm not trying to be combative, just seems like a lot of monkeying around...

UPDATE:
I was using the wrong image. I had confused an UPDATE.APP from a different file. Plus I had an olde version of HuaWei Update Extractor. The correct .img file was labeled recovery_ramdis.img, I had been trying RECOVERY.img.

what i can do now? thanks

Which official version you were on last? What else did you do?
It shows partition error which means you must have cross flashed something wrong.

You said you were able to dload. May be you flashed TWRP after that. Flash Stock recovery and try dload rollback package.

Ok...Through TWRP, use Hurupdater and flash all three files you were on last. It will work.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/development/tool-flash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279
Follow the instructions exactly and change the file names exactly.

If i'm not able to use the emui (because with this limitation isn't a smartphone but a phone?) i can flash a custom rom that not required the root? Thanks

Now you can use dload roll back package. Go back to MM and again upgrade to Nougat.

hi, I've unlock the bootloader on my Huawei mate 8 nxtl29c432. After the reboot the only screen on my phone is
Error mode please update system again
Error!
Func NO 11 recovery image
Error no 2 load failed!
What I can do?! I can't enter in fastboot mode only this screen!!

Looks like you are just playing around. You said all working but few app. Now you landed in error mode.
Well. let the battery dry down totally and switch off.
Then connect your phone to usb pressing vol- button n you will enter fastboot. Rest i leave it upto you to flash.
