So I got my phone (frd-l09) 3 days ago and there's was an update to b360 so I updated it and find out that there's no keyboard on my phone and when I looked to build number I found that (NRD90M test-keys)
Is anyone have solution for this ?
Only rollback to MM.
And how do I download 7.0 without getting stuck in this (test keys) thing again?
You must put the rollback package in to SD Card,( SD card adapter) then - push power and + and - volume at the same time. After that, insert the appropriate MM pack into the SD card- push power and + and - volume at the same time.
I had the same problem with bad software ( NRD90M test-keys)
Did you try to install 7.0 again?
Yes, i have got the update to B360 by OTA
when ever I try I see this message "Please download the correct package"

Hi guys,
My phone is B14, to be exact it's MT7-C900B514.
I updated my phone via pressing the volume up + volume down + power button but it always fails at 5%.
Also tried using the dialer update, but it's stuck at 5%.
Am I doing something wrong here?

i think
you need to flash b500 first than only b522
Have you a stock Marshmallow recovery installed? If partitioning is not correct by using wrong recovery it will fail quickly.

You need to downgrade to lollipop using C900B500 (link : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzKA9jiieekaTGhyVW9lcW9sb3c/view),
[using 3-button forced update], then install lollipop C900B326 (link: https://mega.nz/#!FxgH1arZ!FzYhPvOlaVStFaTNmz8r7MxY6f-N7gvyym41C-JsZtw)
and from there, upgrade to C900B522. I personally would suggest you upgrade to the latest firmware though for TL-10,
the C900B560 (Android security patch level: 1 May 2016) instead of the older C900B522 (earlier Android security patch level).
All links above previously mentioned/provided by chudy_85 in this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-7/general/huawei-mt7-l09-l10-stock-firmware-ota-t3275784
JUST REMEMBER THOUGH that downgrading from any marshmallow firmware to any lollipop firmware will erase all data.
Phone will be like purchased brand new (internal memory almost empty). Backup files/data first before downgrading to lollipop.
Howdy folks! In need of some urgent help... I'm also not terribly familiar with android as I came from years of using iphones.... Yesterday I did the OTA update to EMUI 5. Everything was fine except bluetooth would fail to turn on...so I tried doing a factory reset in the settings. The reset failed less than 10% in and when the phone rebooted, it seems like only half the OS reset and is totally screwed up (no access to the soft keyboard anymore, etc.).
Reading on how to either rollback to EMUI 4/Marshmallow, I tried using the Huawei Update Extractor after downloading L04 6.0 firmware from the Huawei site ( Honor 8_Firmware_FRD-L04_Android 6.0_EMUI 4.1_C567B122_United States_Nonspecific ).
After issuing the adb command to flash the first file, boot.img, I get a "FAILED (remote: Command not allowed).
I'm a total loss at this point. I'd be extremely grateful if anyone can point me in the right direction in terms of what to do next!
I was in the same position as you. Here is what I did:
Download both the rollback package and the full marshmallow firmware (I used a german one since that is my region, i linked one for the UK version, google your specific model to find them) from the hihonor community website: https://community.hihonor.com/docs/DOC-1752 and read the PDFs that are included in both zips, they contain the instructions to roll back to Marshmallow.
You will need an external SD card and you will lose your data.
In case the steps are not clear enough:
1. Copy the dload folder of the rollback package to the root of the SD.
2. Force update the phone (hold volume up and down at the same time when powering up).
3. Shut down the phone after the force update is done.
4. Delete dload folder of the rollback package and replace it with the dload folder of the full marshmallow firmware.
5. Force update the phone again.

First of all, confirm that your model is the L04 model.
The rollback procedure to MM is the following:
- Download the B300 from here http://www.hihonor.com/us/support/details?DOC_ID=92098
- Put the 'Update.APP' (~80MB) file in a folder called 'dload' in your external storage
- Turn off your phone then maintain all the buttons (Volume+, Volume-, Power) to turn it on.
After the update finishes, check your build number, you should be on B300.
- Now, delete the 'Update.APP' that's in your 'dload' folder
- copy the 'Update.APP' (~3 GB or so) of the B122 http://www.hihonor.com/us/support/details?DOC_ID=89264
- Turn off your phone then maintain all the buttons (Volume+, Volume-, Power) to turn it on.
Let your phone optimize, reformat its partitions.
You should now have MM on B122, you can then update to B162 through OTA.

Thanks for your replies. I sincerely appreciate it. I tried doing the above and when updating the rollback, it would only read to 5% and when phone rebooted it was in the same state it was before attempting the rollback. Could it be something to do with the SD card? Any other ideas? Thanks again.

Alright now let's try another method to save it.
- Turn off the phone
- Keep holding the volume+ button then plug it to a computer.
- Keep holding the volume+ until you see the honor logo.
- You should now see the eRecovery.
- Choose download latest software and recovery.

Assuming you have successfully flashed the rollback update (B300), I successfully rolled back to B162 by making a "dload" folder on my external SD card, and placing the Update.APP file in there, and then accessing recovery using the pwr+vol (+/-) buttons.. For some reason placing the Update.APP file in the internal storage did not work with the stock recovery, even though the instructions for the rollback ask you to do so. Hopefully this helps.

Thanks again. Doing this gave me a "getting package info failed" in eRecovery.

Not sure exactly why it worked, but I finally got it restored and am running the latest EMUI 5. Thank you so much everyone for your contributions. I owe you folks a beer!

I'm in the same situation you were in, command not allowed, rollback not working, dload folder with update.app in sd card not working.
How and what did you do after that ?
Thanks in advance
Place the dload folder/files on the root of the internal memory.
Go look on ModaCo.
There is a guy called Paul O'Brien who I think has some thing to do with Honor in some way.
He will help you sort your phone

I somehow managed to actually rollback my phone ! I'm starting to feel a lot better.
Bootloader's locked again, though (no more "this device has been unlocked and cannot be trusted")
Only small problem now is I have the "this device was reset" message problem still around.
Read online here on xda that I need to wait 72 hours before logging on again with my new password (I did change it, that must be why)
I'll just wait these 72 hours and see if it works.
Else if you did have this issue too i'd love to hear about it.
So I'm pretty sure I've managed to brick my honor 8 FRD-L04. Will not finish boot, will only boot into erecovery. Cannot access the phone through USB for Fastboot or ADB. Erecovery reports "Getting package info failed". Ithought that maybe the USB port was bad, replaced the port, still no luck.
Any suggestions?
Search for roll back. It will be roll back to marshmallow, but it will work. I fixed my phone last night. You will have to use an SD card to install the update.
I can't get it to go into the normal recovery.
What is it doing when you try to boot into recovery?
It will only go into Fastboot or erecovery. The phone isn't recognized in Fastboot and erecovery fails

download rollback package, place on sdcard in dload folder, hold power + volume up and down buttons together, it'll auto flash the 1st part, then download 4.1 and do the same, place in dload folder and repeat, now you're back to anroid 6, accept update to 126, then update to 360 and finally 391
Well, I finally got the phone "unbricked", but I still have ZERO USB access. The port will provide power, but no data whatsoever. It's not the port itself as I have replaced it already, it's not the cable, and it's not the computer. I am at a total loss now, but at least I have the device working again.
I was able to get the roll back packages to load
So i bricked my phone. Long story short, using DC Phoenix and dicking around for several hours i was able to install the original FW. I am currently on B133 EMUI 4 Anroid 6.
Interestingly enough System update does not see any new updates. I've also tried Firmware Finder DNS route and I still couldn't find an update. I've then downloaded the next incremental upgrade from firmware finder which is B192. I placed the Update.app in the dload folder on my SD card and tried to appy the upgrade using the Project Menu upgrade and i keep getting an error message PT Failed! I've also tried the system update via the Vol+ Vol- Power button and it keeps giving me an error message. What can I do next? Why are these things failing?
I got it fixed....Moderator can delete this thread
Depending on the region you are in, you might have to wait up to a few weeks for the Huawei servers to recognise your phone. Then you will see updates.
You can also try factory reset. Sometimes that does the trick

Hi,
Around three weeks ago, my fingerprint sensor suddenly stopped working and it disappeared from the settings.
It seems to be software and not hardware since if I do a factory reset it works again.
The problem is that it has happened three times since then and every time I have to do a factory reset. It's really annoying so I'm trying to find durable solutions.
My model is a FRD-L06
I'm on EMUI 5.0.4 and Android 7.0
By the way I tried to upgrade to EMUI 8 to fix the problem but it never worked (no update found with HiSuite, bad checksum following the answer bellow and error while updating using firmware finder and dns installation)
Sorry I didn't find the thread where I got this answer (it is on this website) but here a copy/past:
If anyone has the EU FDR-L09 and is stuck in Nougat version C432B416, not getting the latest oreo b562 update,here is the easiest method to get it,unlocked bootloader not required; First install the Firmware Finder app for Huawei on your Honor 8 from Play Store.Open the app, and press on your model number,you will see a list with firmwares.Press on the fifth one,the first one you see that has 4 lines of text,its latest oreo.Now press Check Firmware Access if it says you are approved proceed.Press the In-app Proxy option.It will ask to set a Proxy so long press your Wifi network ,press edit settings,show advanced option change Proxy server to Manual and set hostname to localhost and port to 8080.Now go to the OTA updater app of your phone and search for updates,it will appear!..Now press on the three dots in the top right corner and press Download Full Package.So wait for the update to install.When its finished and your phone reboots you will notice that you are stuck in a screen where only the nav bar flashes and you cant do anything.Dont worry,power off your phone.Now press and hold Volume up and power button.I let go the buttons 1-2 secs after honor logo appears(long enough).Now you are in recovery so wipe data.When phone reboots the phone will be functioning but missing a lot of apps.Sideload any keyboard apk to your phone (you dont have one)with a pc ,locate it in the file manager and install it.Now connect to your wifi network open the OTA updater and search for updates...it detects one and you install it.When everything is finished you’ll have a fully functioning oreo with all apps

(I'm open to install custom ROM but I'm a total noob (never did it)) and really like EMUI
Thanks !
