I believe it's because it downloads the entire system again, like with an custom ROM

Honor 8 EMUI SETUP LOOP

I bought a honor 8 a day ago . I updated to nougat using FIRMWARE FINDER.Unfortunately it was a test build.NRD...something like that was the build number.I did a factory reset to solve some problem.The factory rest was incomplete.I mean i got a error symbol
at 20%.I rebooted and found that there is no keyboard to type my mail address.I managed and setted up the fingerprint and again the emui startup came.
In simple word :
After an unsuccesful Factory reset phone is lopping on emui setup.Help needed
Use dload method and flash first rollback package and second a full marshmallow firmware.
yep use the above post steps,if you want links reply me
A roll back will be better
Please be careful next time not to flash test keys firmware.

Does that mean people are flashing test keys firmware? There one such ? Omg i never knew this
Yeah well , thats the issue . Flashing firmware from twrp is the culprit . As we dont know if twrp is flashing full zip or not and by the way we need to flash 3 upate.zip's for installation of a full update.
Yeah i noticed 3 zips in emui 5. Mm updates just have two zips.
Rommco05 said:
Thats wrong my friend
M - just one zip (always)
N B360 - two zips
N B3xx - three and sometimes more

Oh , from marshmallow days in my 5x , i noticed that changes with two zips. Well thanks for correcting in the case of 8

It's cleaner, neater, and more attractive than EMUI4. However I read that EMUI5 has bad battery life especially on B380 firmware.

No it's the handset issue only .it was shipped with that issue as again after update installation again not able to boot into recovery as before!
Noticed changes till now
: Fingerprint is blazing fast and no more false recognition
New apps Party mode and Honor club
Better ram management about 3.8 3.9 free at normal conditions
Battery management looks better not that much of frequent drop
Feels more snappier
May 5 security patch

And yes it got installed on second trial.
If you are having system install failed issue with recovery I recommend to install the update two times .. it will get installed and I can see that the firmware finder also showed approved for installation. So you can check with the proxy installation too .
