Bricked my Mate 8 Please Help me - Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I've got a Mate 8 from the Alibaba website. Got it yesterday, did OTA upgrade. Latest one was NXTL-L29C432B180. I wanted to upgrade to the new EMUI 5.0. I've successfully unlocked the bootloader. Tried all bunch of Update.zip files. Most wouldn't work. One actually worked but whenever it finished install (i used manual update through the *#*# keypad sequence) it went back into original 6.0MM as if no update was finished. Tried that few more times with same results. They i saw on the forum a way to update with flashing SU fFirst, followed by the some EU_HW file then followed by the UPDATE.ZIP. Well that messed up my phone, Tried everything to unbrck it..
I then turn over my phone and I see that the model number is actually NXT-DL00. So I am assuming the seller flashed the EU Firmware on the Chinese version of the phone. I've tried Rayglove Knife Unbrick method, but it hasn't helped.
I've found a Nougat 7 update_data_full_dualcu_cn.zip file and flashed using TRWP. Instead going into Huawei Erecovery (which hasn't work either) it just sits in the "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted screen" with a message "Your device is booting now".
I am getting pretty desperate guys. I've never had this much issue with my Note 3 and Note 4 phones. Can somebody please suggest what I can do next?

You want the EU or China Firmware?

At the point ill take whatever works. Also, I've never seen this before but my Touch functions on TWRP, eRecovery or any other thing no longer works.

Have you flash only update_data_full_dualcu_cn.zip without the Update.zip?There are 2 Files to flash

At this point because my touch function is not working I can't use TWRP. How can I flash this now?

another Question,have you changed your Custom.bin and Oem.info from L29 to DL00?
Do you have no successfully Update to Emui 5.0 with no Version with Dload or Twrp and you are still on Android 6.0?

Use Logitech Wireless Touch Keyboard K400 or any keyboard with touchpad built in via mirco port.

And you need not Touch to reboot in Bootloader and flash the img files.
Can you Power off the Phone?
If not,
Press 10 sec Power to reboot,after vibrate Press Volume - and hold and put in your USB Cable when comes the Huawei Logo release the Vol-.
And you booting in Bootloader
If Bootloader locked,unlock again
Flash the img files via Fastboot.

I haven't done anything myself. As soon as I got the phone i did 3 or 4 OTA updates. Final version was NXT-L29C432B180, but on the back of the phone its a DL00. What gave me the bootloop was when i flashed
these 3 files and then restarted the phone from this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/general/how-to-install-nxt-l29c432b560-official-t3540042
1- Download these 3 files (update.zip, update_full_hw_eu.zip, supersu_v2.79_sr2.zip)
1.1- http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/d...ull/update.zip
1.2- http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/d...full_hw_eu.zip
1.3- http://www.sillanwali.com/downloads/..._v2.79_sr2.zip
So I am not really sure on what EMUI I am on.
I will try your procedure above. How do I factory reset the phone after I flashed the img files?

I flashed all 4 image files from the 180 FW, restarted the phone with reboot command. Phone boots once, restarts, boots second time and goes straight into eRecovery

How do I perform a factory reset? All I have done was just flashed the IMG files and rebooted the phone using the fastboot reboot command

the very last OTA was L29c43b180. I remember i wrote it down on a piece of paper infront of me just so I know in case this happened. EMUI was 4.0. There were no available updates after that.
Ive tried holding the Power key + VolUp...it just takes me to eRecovery

Ok boot to erecovery and shot down.
Press and hold at same time Volume up and Power Button and release when you see the Huawei Logo.
You are on B180 Stock Recovery.img and not on B560 Recovery?

Try the followings:
1) download the update.zip from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/general/huawei-mate-8-stock-firmware-official-t3391727
2) Extract UPDATE.APP
3) Create a folder dload on a SD card and put it in the phone
4) Push the power+volume up+volume down at the same time
If it works the phone will run the UPDATE.APP and you will be back with the stock rom.

Try to dload the update.app from the rollback package from this website:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/general/best-easiest-to-rollback-to-emui-4-0-t3507399
Try all three to see which one works for you. If the rollback update.app works then you can dload the update.app for the firmware you used before.

its the same method that i did when i upgrade from B180 to B320 but it doesnt work for me when i want to downgrade, after flashing .img files i restart the phone stuck on "your device is booting now..." and i cant enter stock recovery. so to solve the prob i have to restart bootloader and flash twrp and go back to B320 i hate B3xx its so buggy, slow, apps crashing freezing, too much problems....) B180 was working perfect for me. btw i have a L29C652 no firmwares no updates.... my bootloader is unlocked i was using C900B180 and now C900B320.
then Flash the img files System,Boot,Cust and Recovery from B180 via fastboot,reboot and set up the Phone,power off and press the three buttons to flash the B180 update.app and Factory reset,this works for me without Problems.
Make you a Factory Reset after flash B320?Mine is not freezing or Buggy but the loction is total wrong.
or you can Flash the international B180 in Twrp,before flash this format system,data,,dalvik cache,cache and cust in twrp and flash B180 int.
Then reboot into Bootloader and flash Stockrecovery and Power off.Install update app B180 with the three buttons

Cant boot Mate 8

I cant boot my mate 8 after i stupidly tried to debrand it flashing the images of firmware with fastboot. Now i can only boot in erecovery (but it doesnt download and recover the phone) and in fastboot mode, i really need your help guys. My phone model is NXT-L29C432 and firmware preflash B320
DLOAD METHOD WASNT WORKING BECAUSE OF A PROBLEM OF MY MICROSD, THREAD CAN BE CLOSED.
I finally got to twrp with an insecure boot.img, if someone can help me now, i dont know what to flash to make my phone work again
Download last ROM you were on and extract and put update.app in your Sd card root directory in dload folder (create one if you dont have). Insert SD card in phone, boot into software update mode and it will start updating automatically
---------- Post added at 12:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:57 PM ----------
First lock your bootloader again....
Installation failed at 39%
any ideas? no one? also twrp doesnt work anymore, dload installation still fails at 39% (i used the file before the brick and it was working) and i cant restore via erecovery or hisuite

Hello everyone,
I'm actually in front of a big problem. I try this night to upgrade from FRD-L09C432B120 to FRD-L09C432B316. Since I try it, my phone stay on a Warning screen and i can't do anything. (Just try to shut down by a long press on power button and it make a reboot and it's the same for every key combination).
I can't go in Recovery or eRecovery. The only things that works is the fastboot mode. I try to flash the stock firmware after an extract of "UPDATE.APP" but the system image give me an error. I also try to put UPDATE.APP on the SD Card but I can't access to the update mode (by press vol+ , vol- and power button). I think that i've try all the ideas that i've fund on internet !
I've no more ideas. Do you think that is possible to unbrick it ?
Thanks to your help and your reply.

So it's a failure . which mean that it is a semi flashed update . which doesn't installed update.app .
Extract update.app from ota and put it in dload folder .later flash it manually using dload method .
He should follow this way to overcome those reboots

Hello ,
It happened on my FRD-L04, but I think is the same.
Bootloader is unlocked ?
1. Do you have all drivers installed ? OK
2.Do you have STOCK ROM ? OK. If not, use Huawei Firmare Finder to find suitable ROM. Be aware what you choose !!!
3. Unzipp (WinRar) the ROM.
4.Download and install Huawei Update Extractor. Run Huawei Update Extractor . Choose Update.app from the folder you unzipped the ROM.
5. Select cust.img , boot.img , recovery.img and system.img and extract them on a folder.
6.. Install MultiTool by Team (Multi Tool Team). The instalation will make a folder named UNBRICK.
7. Move the files extracted : cust.img , boot.img , recovery.img and system.img on the folder UNBRICK
8. Run MultiTool . Choose option 6 (unbrick) and after that choose option 2 ( if you already have files on folder UNBRICK)
9. Let the tool finish the job.
NOTE : You must have all drivers installed and the phone in FASTBOOT mode ( turn phone OFF - Press VOL- and insert USB cable simultaneously.)
Good luck !
Hi, thanks everyone for your reply.
Unfortunatly, the dload method seems not work. I think that to run this method, i need to press simultaneously vol+, vol- and the power button to run it, right ?
If it's like that, the method doesn't work anymore.
I will try the process given by technoguy09 and I said to you if it's ok !
So, after many try, every method that i try doesn't work.
Even the Unbrick method doesn't work because the system and cust report an error.
For the cust, i have "partition error" and for the system I have the "sparse flash write failure". Can we correct this error ?

The bootloader is unlock and TWRP was install but now I can't access it. I try to restore stock recovery and it's the same result.

Can fastboot detect your phone?
Yes, fastboot is detect, I can launch some command (fastboot devices display my phone, flash etc) everything work but flash recovery didn't change anything and flash system response an error (sparse flash write failure).

From what you said, looks like it is reallt bricked. Service center is your friend.
I think too... I hope that there will be no problem with service center because of the phone is unclocked !
I was never had this kind of problem with my previous android phone. I'm really bad ^^
Thanks for all everybody.

I try at least 3 ROM download on different website. I don't think that it can change anything.
I had the same problem.
Dont worry, Honor 8 phones are nearly unbrickable.
Take your B120 ROM extract recovery, cust and boot partitions. (use huawei update extractor)
Flash Them via fastboot (adb) then force the dload method via the 3 buttons combo.
I had all the problems you described and restored my phone as new. (even the "sparse flash write failure" error)
Now i'm on EMUI 5 rooted, no problem

so then i side loaded resurrection os 5.7 and it didnt have wifi so i tried upgrading emui and now i can't install any rom it just hangs at "patching ssytem unconditonally"
i have TWRP running on the phone. i just want to go back to stock OS. please help how do i do this?
unknown command [errno] update_huawei_pkg_from_ota_zip from zip failed
when i try to flash the stock huawei rom
i can run fastboot and twrp but nothing else works. i will paypal 15 dollars to someone who can help me
You can download the full firmware directly from honor, unzip it, and place the update.app file in a dload folder that you create on your sd card. Power of the phone then hold volume up, down, and power at the same time to initiate an automatic flash of the room you downloaded. This will erase everything, so be aware.
1.Download full rom from huawei support site then extract update.app
2.place it in dload folder using twrp (in twrp enable MTP)
3.Now extract the recovery.img from update.app using huawei extractor and flash it using fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
4.now power off phone then start phone holding Volume Up ,Volume Down & power button simultaneously
5.it will start updating

oh my god ok now it is stuck at blue honor screen for an hour after update installed automatically without pressing anything. i just pressed volume and power buttons and it started updating. no menu was provided
now it says your device failed verificitaion
so now the bootloader is locked again and the update installed, but it still doesn't boot and when i try to update again it says verification failed

I had the same problem once.
You can try to flash the cust partition of your phone. The "device verification failed"-message should disappear then. It's not enough to only flash boot, system and recovery. If there is a problem with the cust partition of your phone you can also have problems with flashing stock roms via "dload"-method.
1. Download the right stock firmware via the huawei firmware finder. You usually have two .zip files (e.g. update.zip & update_full_BLN-L21_hw_eu.zip). The image file for the cust partition can be found in the update_full_BLN-L21_hw_eu.zip (choose the right one for your model).
2. Unpack update_full_BLN-L21_hw_eu.zip and extract the cust partition with the huawei firmware extractor.
3. Put your phone into fastboot mode
4. Use the following command: fastboot flash cust cust.img
5. Try to boot into your stock rom.
