Problem with FRD-L14! *App not responding* - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

I'm having an issue with my FRD-L14!
I encountered a problem a couple weeks ago when my phone died of low battery. Once I charged it and turned it back on, all of a suddenly all of my apps were unresponsive. And when I say all of the apps, I mean ALL of the apps. I began receiving notifications of the apps that weren't responding and it was asking me to wait or close app. I tried both and had no outcome. I restarted the phone a few times thinking maybe it was a bad boot.. Nothing. Finally, I did a factory reset and everything began working fine.. Until I decided to turn my phone off again (This was the last time my phone had been turned completely off since the factory reset) and the issue arose again. All of my apps are not responsive. Sometimes I cannot even get into settings. I also do not receive any calls/texts during this time either.
I am NOT rooted and I do not have an unlocked bootloader. Completely stock.
Please Help!

Sounds weird...maybe you can try reflashing the firmware? What version are you using? Nougat or Marahmallow?

Nougat.. Everything I have is stock and updated to the latest firmware.

Okay, in that case i would have made a rollback to marshmallow first, then flashing the full marshmallow firmware (latest avaible on honor site) and finally update again to nougat with OTA.
I think it's the best thing you can do

Oh don't worry . However i forgot to ask, but for me a rollback and a reflash would make it i think. What do you think could be?

That's what I also think. That's why I asked him which version/build number of EMUI 5 he is currently so I can link the correct files if neccessary.

Sorry, I haven't had a chance to try it yet. As soon as I do, I'll let the thread know. Hopefully a rollback and then a fresh OTA update will make it work again.

UPDATE!
After a rollback and OTA update back to Nougat using Proxy Firmware Finder, everything is working fine.
The only thing I've noticed is that my build number is "NRD90M test-keys". I'm not sure if this will affect any future OTA updates or not. It was very difficult to find a full update package for the FRD-L14 version. The model number still reflects FRD-L14 though.
Side note: I think the entire cause of the problem was I did the trick from the link below. It worked and I had been using it for a long time. In the comments of that thread, I've noticed others having the issue after reboot as well... Must be a Huawei thing.

That could be it. I got the server URL for the guy that did the S7 one by just going into /data/data/com.ws.dm (the data folder for our system update app, you'll have to find the package name of yours) and looking through all the files. From there it seems he looked at the desc.bin that it downloads to get the URL of the actual update package, but I don't know what he did after that to find the other files.
I believe this is an alternative possibility of getting the same result. Also it IS possible. Atnt got their software early by using this exact same method.

Oh I see what you are trying to do... Get the people already on nougat beta to get the OTA and provide the rest of us w/ the zip... Nice!
Has anyone done this yet?
Tried it again and this is what I get. I can't view the url just a pop up "the latest updates have already been installed"
Seems links are DEAD for download on Post #1 I have Nougat running on my AT&T S7 from article on XDA for AT&T S7. It runs Very Smooth, No Problems as Yet.

Yes I got that. Didn't mean it as you probably read my remark. I go to the oldest firmware as Odin doesn't let me flash any newer versions, I believe it's 4AP.... and when I do it from there it only updates me to APK1..... I just try and go back every so often to see ifor it'll work. Thought I'd repost my results thinking it be OK but I won't any more. Doesn't seem like anyone has been able to get this to work either. If some one has it would be nice to know if they were able to. I'll just wait for the update to go out from Samsung when they decide to release it.

Go back to MM, good idea?

Hi,
I'm using android 7.0 with emui 5 but I would downgrade to MM.
Will I have some security problems if I refuse updates and stay with MM?

Hi,
I start using H8 wiht Android 6 and EMUI 4. Every things works fine. Finaly I decided to update to Android 7 and EMUI 5. I read that some people have problem with battery. In my case every thing works fine. Overall if You dont have any problems especially with battery I recommend stay in Androis 7 and EMUI 5.
My advice whachout for upgrade software to B381. I instaled it yesterday and i see some standbay drain battery. I dont started panic but I will wait couple days and see what is changed.

Do I Wait For 8.0 on ? FRD-L14

My other device is out of order right now so I switched back to my old Honor 8.
When I did I received 2 updates.
But still did not get 8.0 is it something you a to do manually?
If the L14 is an American model then you won't get it. It's not out. Otherwise, you'll need to update via hisuite for the official way

Personally I gave up on waiting and flashed the unofficial frimware from FF. I'm more than happy with stock Oreo, it's smooth and battery life is amazing (you can tweak each application with more settings than in Nougat). Right now I'll stay on stock but I know I have custom ROM if I get tired of it which is also rly nice

I thought I would get the official updates so I never got the free unlock bootloader code. This sucks since I paid cash for this at Best Buy
I'm on Oreo B560 for the L14. Can I relock the bootloader using fastboot so that I can use Google pay or will this brick my phone? I don't really use root apps. Other than that Oreo works great.

Yesterday I was planning to post:
I find it still hard to understand all the updates from Oppo.
I had CPH2025VF_11_A.26 with 5 may security
then i went downgrade CPH2025VF_11_A.23 with june patch
Now i miss some features like filming with wide angle and smart power save...
any idea if i can undo the damage?

But I guess here I have my answer. I'm new to oppo and as far is I can see there are more frequent updates so far than when I had samsung.
Just wondering why though, must be a bug inside the module that checks whether there's a newer version or just poor administration on their side?

I was on A.15 since out of box, no OTA received, I have updated manually to CPH2025_11_A.23.
Now again everyone is talking about A.30 but no OTA for me even via VPN.??
Region is UAE. Model CPH2025 global, 5G and volte is working no issue...
Any clue why not receiving OTA at all.
Well this is there response to me.
Ino we are at are own risk installing these builds but not to have a dodgy rollback file that they send to us! So now apparently we all have to send are devices away.

Don't assume you've got a "bugged" version of software. Remember up until today those of us on A.23 couldn't get the update, even by using the VPN method but it didn't mean we had faulty software. Today the update then appeared for us as an OTA as normal.
Perhaps your A.25 version just needs to wait a bit longer and you'll eventually get the update sent to your phone as usual.
