Hello guys,
I need some help. My device (Honor 6 L04) is on B109.
Its rooted and I want to install the stock updates on it (so that i will get lollipop and emui 3.1)
Do I need to install the stock firmware first ? I dont really know where to start. I already searched in this forum but there are tooooo many things to watch through.

So it works now. Got Lolipop + emui 3.1
You need to get the stock rom for your device. But first replace (build.prop + local.prop) -> you need root for that. Then you can go and do the ota's of course. Good Luck!

Rooting Mate 8 and some other questions

I did not buy the Mate 8 yet but being able to root easily makes me more sure about the choice.
1. Is there any good reason to change the basic ROM after unlocking BL&Rooting? I was planning to get root access for some cool apps (e.g. the firewall) and stay with the basic ROM.
2. After I unlock and root with "[TOOL] SRK Tool Huawei Bootloader/ROOT/Recovery/Backup/Utility", I guess I cannot upgrade the EMUI if there is an official upgrade. My question here is, can I return to locked bootloder&unrooted and upgrade normally if Huawei releases an upgrade? How?
3. Actually I’m not sure about to choose Nexus 6p, Mate 8, ZTE Axon 7 or LG V10, but the biggest screen and the biggest SOT aim the Mate, but since I want root permission without being expert and being able to upgrade if there is an official update I’m not sure if I should buy a Nexus 6p. Any suggestion?
Thanks.
I've just bought the mate 8

info about root & eventually nougat

Hello guys,
i'm hating my z3 6.x because i can not move app on sd, so i've decided to gain root access for app2ds feature and maybe install nougat.
Can you suggest me a easy guide to root (maybe no onerootclick or similar, i would like to learn something) and maybe a nougat stable rom or at least the best rom that do not lose any official function in 6.x?
thx a lot,
andrea

There is no official Nougat for Z3, it will never be: http://www.androidauthority.com/android-7-0-snapdragon-800-801-712930/
You need an unlocked bootloader and start testing work-in-progress custom ROMs from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/orig-development
Or if you just want root on MM, use the device to upgrade to the latest official Marshmallow release .291, and then follow this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/general/recovery-root-mm-575-291-lb-t3435214

New Honor 8 owner here, needing a few answers if you could!

Hello, I'm new to the whole Honor/Huawei system, last Huawei I've owned was a U8650NFC-1, which was running Gingerbread.
I'm coming from a Samsung Ecosystem, and Knox was a thing I had to deal with, I want to install a Camera MOD on my Honor 8 FRD-AL10.
Is there anything I should look out for after rooting the device? Any disabled features like Knox and all?
Thank you. Cheers!
Note that after rooting you will not be able to use android pay(if supported in your region) and your device may brick when doing OTA updates without stock recovery or unlocked bootloader in some cases.

How to go to OpenKirin

Hi everyone,
I m a little confuse and when I say a little, I mean a lot, about the way to go from a L29C432B582, unlocked bootloader to a ROM with EMUI 8 to Openkirin. I read than oreo isn't available for L29, so have I to flash a Chinese ROM, or something ? Some help could be great. And why not make of this tread an how to for all firmware versions to go to openkirin, but I can figurate this just by myself. Does anyone know my path ? And could you please explain the way you have proceed to go to OpenKirin, or even and other Oreo Rom, from where you come to where you are now. With link to the thread and files you had use, lot of link seems dead. It could be really helpfull for a lot of us.
I will still try to find a way by myself and update this thread, but any help would be really appreciate.
I had think in a first place I had to go to a stock rom, for reach the official update, but if I can't have the EMUI 8 for L29C432 it will be a dead end.
Best regards
You will have to debrand your phone to the chinese version of mate 8 in order to update your phone to oreo. You have the thread with all the instructions in the forum. If you dont do this,you wont be able to flash any open kirin roms.
This is the thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/general/discussion-oreo-huawei-mate-8-t3785320
Hi,
Thanks Leverkusen
Did you make this ? What firmware have you ? Did the update could be done OTA ? Do I have to paid for DC-Unlock ?
