Hi I rooted my Honor 8 as soon as I bought it, so I'm on stock firmware (B120). What do I need to do in order to relock? I would like to be able to update my phone
I have TWRP installed
I appreciate your help, I'm a noobie

hi guys, im new in this mobile, im considering root it
i need to unclok bootloader?
i have original rom b527 and phone never been bootloader unlocked
what is the best option
thanks
yes, root needs unlocked BL.
easiest way:
multi-tool
I am on rooted stock B331 and I just received an update to B356 (492 MB). If I acceot the OTA will the bootloader get locked? I know I will most likely loose root and twrp. I'd like to updated but not get locked again. Any advice?
Or should I flash the image file in TWRP along with insecure boot?
If anybody has gone this route please advice. Thanks
huh? thats new! here i thought that once u unlock bootloader and root u dont receive ota updates anymore! how is that possible?!
in any case, whats the big deal about bootloader getting locked? u just unlock it again using your code via fastboot, no problem then flash twrp and supersu, done!

Yeah, I know it is wierd. My bootloader is unlocked, I'm rooted and have twrp installed and received the B356 OTA this morning.
I was hopping to dirty flash so I don't have to go through all the setup process again
true, unlocking BL again would mean that your phone would be reset...

You can still do OTA'S with an unlocked bootloader. You should be able to OTA but it may remove root or fail in the process because of root. I always recommend backing up the stock rom in TWRP so you can always go back to it to take an OTA. Fastboot flash the stock rom you're on and the stock recovery then boot up and take the OTA then fastboot flash twrp again.
I have also received the notification for b357 and I am on stock rooted b356...sounds fishy, I am not updating

I'd love it if anybody could make a flashable zip rooted B356 or 357 rom to be safe.
Hello,
I recently found FirmwareFinder and tried it out. I found a Nougat Rom for my System NXT-L29C636B103 and installed it. I read the changelog before but it wasn't marked as beta.
Also it wasn't named NRD90M in FF.
I know tried to get back with dload and HiSuit and FF (Because the rom doenst have a update program...) but it wont work.
I don't have a Unlocked Bootloader or Root, atleast i don't know how to unlock it. But I would love to get Root with Magisk or something^^
EDIT: It seems that my bootloader is unlocked. I checked with fastbooot oem get-bootinfo and get "(bootloader) unlocked" as result.
Didnt knew because i bought the phone from a friend
I hope someone can help me..
Greetings

Hi.
Firstly, you should get the Huawei id details from your friend and the bootloader code.
Secondly, flash TWRP recovery and flash original Huawei rom.
Hey,
I have a working unlock Code now.
I used the huawei official Rollback FW C900B500 and flashed it. After this I flashed C432B192 to get OTA Updates in Germany. But now I'm in C900B192 and can't get OTA updates. I Tried to get B582 with FF but get an Error at Installation because of incompatibality with my System.
Amy ideas what i can do next? :/

Hello,
I hava a U11 with Stock ROM but I unlocked the bootloader and installed TWRP recovery so I could root the phone via Magisk. The Device is still S-ON.
Yesterday it showed an OTA Update is ready for download, version 2.33.401.19.
Can I apply this update or will it brick my phone because I´m with a custom recovery ?
Can someone tell me the right way to apply the OTA update ?
best regards,
Mister.Knister
I'am 100% sure it will either not update or brick your phone. Do not apply the update!

You need sdcard, then use dload metod and download service firmware here in xda
ok ..i will try..but will it relock my bootloader?
i dont want it relocked if not necessary..i lost the code
I feel so, yes, or you can try download firmware via recovery if you have stock recovery, than bootloader is unlocked
