I've an honor 8 FRD-AL00. I've fastboot installed and I'm able to access it. I'm also able to access eRecovery.
I've used SRK Tool to change the oeminfo and custom.bin. After trying to install the official L09 I think I bricked my phone.
Here are the steps I've done:
- Unlock bootloader
- Install recovery 6.0
- Root
- Changed oeminfo and custom.bin
- Reboot and tried to install a stock recovery.img boot.img and system.img (which failed while installing it) from offical L09 UPDATE.APP.
Current status: unable to boot either to recovery or android. what should I do in order to get my phone or install the L09 update or at least something that I can use? I've also used the 3 button trick with the dload/UPDATE.APP in the memory card but the phone doesn't show the loading screen it gets stuck into the huawei logo.
I've then tried to install CM13. I've successfully installed twrp-recovery.img but I'm not able to access it (button + vol down nor button + vol up).
Thanks for the help

Doesn't work, it gets stuck at the huawei logo.
After a couple of tries I was able to get TWRP installed so I'm able to access and modify the filesystem.
I've noticed that, for some reason, my phone has the "default.prop" set up to "ro.product.model=eva" shouldn't this be FRD's or something like that?
Can someone provide me a copy of their /default.prop file so I could compare?

Yes. EVA is another Honor phone. It can be caused of the process you did earlier.

Yes I think it's the P9, do you have a copy of a valid "default.prop" file?

This is solved and I'm successfully running a FRD-AL00 with the FRD-L09C432B120 (EMUI 4.1 + Android 6.0). It's a painful process and I only recommend it to advanced users since you can brick your phone. I almost bricked mine.

I also have the same mistakes. Help please ...
For now a moment there is no solution for those issues - the only way is to change back to AL00.
Before you do, please install HiSuite, this tool installs all necessary drivers as well.
1) Unlock bootloader and install TWRP: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/guide-unlock-bootloader-tested-root-t3443946
2) ROOT: Download SuperSU and flash it using TWRP
2.1) Power off, press volume up + power on
2.2) After TWRP loads, click on Install, select SuperSU zip file you just downloaded and flash it
2.3) Reboot
3) Debrand: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZVsIKtdgV4&t=307s
3.1) This video shows how to debrand P9 but it works on Honor 8 (AL00, AL10, AL09 and AL19)
4) Flash new ROM
4.1) More info about ROMs: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/frd-al-00-04-09-10-14-19-differences-t3452924
4.2) ALXX ROM download: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ho...rk-tool-huawei-bootloader-root-t3470823/page3
4.2) LXX ROM download: https://www.androidsage.com/2016/12...rshmallow-emui-5-0-4-1-stock-firmware-update/
Hope this helps but please note FRD-L09 ROM running on FRD-AL00 phone is unstable.
Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Do you know if is there any hardware difference between AL00 and L09? What is the reason phone gets so unstable when you debrand to L09 and flash EU ROM?

adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem unlock xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I think my command is right.
1. Unlock the phone first
2. Download file below
3. Flash and go
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1-0-Z01K-20171011.img
fastboot oem reboot-recovery
4. Root / backup ... and profit !

Hi , would you please tell me how can I "reboot and install again" ?
Since the touch screen is not working , I restart the phone by pressing the power key a few second . Restart the whole process for more then 10 times but the touch screen is still not working .
ASUS messed up the touch screen by updating the firmware nearly in every version, I suggest you upgrade to the newest ROM and flash twrp again. For reboot just issue ' adb reboot ' ..
May I know your firmware version ?

Hi , thank you for your suggestion .
I can't get the firmware version in the hardware information section , so I bet the software version will work as well ? Actually , I just updated my phone few days ago , so I think I'm already in the latest version .
( maybe this one ? )
After entered the TWRP , no matter ADB or Fastboot has no response , so the only way to reboot is to press the power key for about 10 seconds .

Root and OTA
Hi,
If I used your unofficial bootloader unlock method and install TWRP and root, if I want to get the next asus OTA update, can I unroot and download the full firmware from the ASUS wesbite and install it even though I have the bootloader unlocked? Thanks.
Hi. I want to have root but I want to know how you get OTA or how to get back to stock ?
Sorry , it's me again . Just a few hours ago I roll back to stock system , and perform the OTA update . After that I've root with the system again the system keep going into the recovery and cannot return to android system . Is there anyway I can return to the normal andoird system ? Thank you .

If still on TWRP recovery copy the full ROM (downloaded from ASUS, do not unzip, just copy the zip) to a SD card or to internal memory of the phone, reset to factory from within TWRP and perform an install. Worked for me. First boot takes ages

Well , I've tried this at the very beginning , but no luck . Seems the recovery is corrupted and keep stuck in it .
Finally , got a .img reocvery image , flash it via TWRP and the system resumes normal , at least it is working for me now .
Hello everyone,
I consider an update to the latest 15.0405.1712.83 version, so I'd like to know if there are any issues with TWRP compatibility or getting root back on the new ROM. Any modified boot needed?
Hello everyone,
I installed the twrp on my Asus Zenfone 4 (ZE554K -WW_14.1050.1708.36). I tried to root it, but no success... After several tries, I just gave up and now I'm trying to get the stock recovery. I couldn't find the stock recovery.img on "google" for this model. Is there any way to remove the twrp from this model of phone and some way to get stock recovery.img ? I tried to download the firmwares from official site, but I couldn't find the recovery.img inside zip files.
Thanks in advance.!

I just use the above TWRP, just can use it to install Magisk to get root.
This cannot backup data...
(Therefore suggest just boot off the custom recovery TWRP without installing it until a new version release)

Thanks again for your suggestions.
I was on 14.1060.1709.80 version of ROM with the TWRP 3.1.1 (2017.10.11).
Somehow I've managed to update to the latest 15.0405.1801.89 stock, and then flashed TWRP 3.2.1 from the @shakalaca Medium blog, so the credit goes to him anyway.
Seems like it works just fine, I successfully did a nandroid backup and flashed the latest Magisk version.
P.S.: Unfortunately I can't post external links, so either you find it yourself or the author would post the link in this thread.

Thanks! Good news for about TWRP 3.2.1 !!! :laugh:
Then I searched in Google and found a web site: Android Infotech
then download the TWRP 3.2.1 version and tested,
it can use the sd card and also can read the data!
Therefore it can use to backup!

Sorry for delaying on reply and thank you so much for helping !
Next day, after I posted here, I searched a bit more and found a link with some recovery files.
Unfortunally I can't post the link cause I'm new user, but it's a Stock Recovery from shakalaca, on androidfilehost.com (thanks to him).
Then I got the stock ROM and everything gone ok. Then I updated to Oreo and now I'm trying to troubleshoot an usb file transfer issue. Another long history...
Is it safe to do this? I am with ZE554KL and a week, and I want to do root, but I am afraid and doubt, if someone can tell me if it is safe, I am grateful.
--------------------------
é seguro fazer esse procedimento? estou com o ZE554KL e uma semana, e quero fazer root, mas tenho medo e duvidas, se alguem puder me afirmar se é seguro, fico agradecido.
Any way to un-unlock the phone? I unlocked the phone and never had any luck booting into twrp. Ended up in a boot loop (fixed) so just going to give up on it for now before i brick it. I see no point in leaving it unlocked

It is safe to root the device , however , please make sure ALL your data already backup .
I'm not sure if it is due to the new android file system or not , but my storage is totally wiped out after I root the device . it's not happened for my previous android phone .
Just my 2 cents .

Yeah but I was expecting the way of updating to be the same, I thought any PRA-LA1C185XXX can be flashed successfully.
Isn't there any way to downgrade from C185B165 to any older version?

But mine is PRA-AL00X ... and yours is PRA-LA1C185B101
Will the stock recovery remains same for both?
Hi all,
Based on the recent Android O OTA Package, I made the Nokia 6 TA-1000 firmware that can be flashed with OST LA 6.0.4.
UPDATE: I'm testing the homebrew "Stock" firmware for Nokia 6 TA-1021(Codename PLE).
YOU MUST USE OST LA 6.0.4 IN ORDER TO FLASH THIS FIRMWARE TO YOUR NOKIA 6 TA-1000
OST LA 6.1.2 REQUIRES EXTRA AUTHENTICATION
However, this firmware preserves the old service bootloader from Nougat which made recovery porting and downgrading possible.
I strongly recommend everyone who still want to root your Nokia 6 on Android O to flash this firmware first.
However you needn't to flash this firmware if you've unlocked the bootloader.
If you've already updated to Oreo, here's the bootloader downgrading procedure: https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-5/how-to/guide-how-to-downgrade-official-oreo-to-t3746007
December 2017 OTA DL: https://ota-filesite.c2dms.com/SWUpdate/500000748
After get stucked in recovery, just flash the firmware I provided.
You can receive further update from this firmware, but the bootloader will always get patched. You know, DON'T INSTALL ANY FURTHER OTA UPDATE.
https://mega.nz/#F!K1k0gC5C!xpw3-AQvSQJ5p6VWX19gpA
If you can't see any file, that probably means I'm still uploading.
The homebrew "Stock" FW is not a nb0 file. You can just load the mlf file with OST LA and do the same procedure.
DO BACKUP BEFORE UPGRADING OR DOWNGRADING, BECAUSE THE ENCRYPTION ALGORITHM IS DIFFERENT BETWEEN NOUGAT AND OREO
If you get stucked on logo, you can flash TWRP recovery and format data partition on recovery.

Great move @hikari_calyx . You can pm me if you need any support
Hikari_Calyx can those of us on Nokia 6 TA-1021 go ahead and flash this firmware. And after flashing can we use your guide on how to root nokia 6 for this firmware?

You can flash these firmware and TWRP with my guide. However, TWRP must be upgraded in order tk compatible with Android O.
TA-1021 homebrew "stock" firmware is on the way.

Thanks for your work, but i have some issues when i flash you firmware.
Since the firmware is not stock nb0 file, i download it shows a 7z file and extacted to a bunch of other files, so i cannot load as mlf file as you decribed.
Is there any process i did wrong?
BTW, "TA1021_PLE-522A-0-00WW-B01_Exploit.7z" this file i download.
Error: download file.

Since I don't have a TA1021 to test, can you provide the logs in C:\LogData folder? You can compress it into an archive.

me too, on ta-1021. I will now try flashing the IMG files instead
Flashing with IMG / IMG.ext4 files worked. @hikari_calyx your mod works great on my TA-1021 with only one problem: the SIM card does not get recognized until I reboot to the recovery, wipe dalvik and choose reboot to system. That happens every time after the device gets shut down. So maybe something is wrong with the hardware init?
EDIT: you don't need to clear dalvik or cache, rebooting to recovery and from there rebooting to system again fixes the SIM issue
To fix the File not found issue, rename the following filenames:
D1C-0-522A-00WW-boot.img to PLE-0-522A-00WW-boot.img
D1C-0-522A-00WW-recovery.img to PLE-0-522A-00WW-recovery.img
D1C-0-522A-00WW-system.img to PLE-0-522A-00WW-system.img

I'll try...
Prerequisites:
- OST LA 6.0.4
- December 2017 Patch applied, as @hikari_calyx wrote
- the recovery provided by hikari_calyx in his MEGA Link
- the TA-1021 Firmware provided by hikari_calyx (I used B01, there could be more in the future)
0. check for December patch applied (if you are on another build than Dec your phone will not boot after this), unzip the 7-zip archive. Rename the following files:
D1C-0-522A-00WW-boot.img to PLE-0-522A-00WW-boot.img
D1C-0-522A-00WW-recovery.img to PLE-0-522A-00WW-recovery.img
D1C-0-522A-00WW-system.img to PLE-0-522A-00WW-system.img (thanks to @nicholasng99)
and turn off you phone
start OST from the installation path (patch it first if needed) and click on, load the mlf file from the 7zip archive
click on "Edit phone information" and wait for the error message and click next.
After this, your phone has the Oreo image installed - now to rooting:
if you have unlocked your Bootloader: reboot to bootloader(for example: adb reboot bootloader)
if you have no unlocked Bootloader: fire up OST again and load a firmware file (nb0 or mlf) and click on "Edit phone information" after you turned off your phone
go to the OST installation path, hold shift and right-click into Explorer, now choose to open cmd / Powershell there.
execute fastboot-android flash recovery C:\path\to\recovery\by\7to\that\you \downloaded\filename.img
type fastboot reboot BUT DO NOT EXECUTE IT YET, hold down power and vol+, press Enter now
you should see a rabbit head, Chinese text and TWRP now
Optional: click on the cogwheel to open the settings and choose English as language if your Chinese is as good as mine (Spoiler: i don't speak Chinese)
Press on Advanced (three dots) and choose Rooting with Magisk
now you only have to reboot to system and it should work!
I hope I could help

what is this sorcery? Now my SIM gets recognised. I rebooted a few times to get a logcat with the error but... How? Also, I rebooted into safe mode. The SIM card works there too. So I have no idea where this is coming from :silly:

Eh? Not sure if you realise that's a custom rom based on b131, it's certainly not "stock"
On step 4, he is providing a link to download full stock version to update phone before installing his custom ROM, I downloaded the stock file, unzipped it and you get the three files to update with HuRupdater, running full stock 131 on my phone from that link. ??

You need to flash the unofficial TWRP https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p20-pro/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-t3779400
This version allows you to decrypt storage. From what I can see you have flashed official version that does not allow this.
Once you have flashed correct TWRP you then need to remove all security measures (password, fingerprint, face unlock) before booting into recovery. You should then see the folders appear normally.
