Getting my phone on Saturday or Monday and I want to root it right away. Does anyone know if this is a legit way to root my phone?
http://rootkhp.pro/how-to-root-huawei-honor-9/
I dont think so. They even have page for Honor 10, which dont event exist yet. LoL
What model are you getting ? If it's ST-AL10 then there's one chinese web out there has working tool to root it, but it need to be on B123 version as well,
I guess i'll just simply wait for TWRP to be available
Hopefully huawei will be as friendly as in honor 8 time
I'm getting the European version
Now it's still to early to root... I don't see any (working) root method yet...

The best way to root is to have TWRP first. Never try rooting methods from 3rd party sites.

Better wait for a TWRP man. I tried rooting methods like this before and it never worked. Plus there is a risk of spyware since we don't know where that program came from.

So it looks like chainfire has developed a root for the Snapdragon variants of the s8 using CF Auto root. Still no unlocked bootloader or TWRP but it's a start.

The EngBoot.img will be released within the next couple days. That means that root will come soon after that.
Delete this thread. People have already talked about this so much. Those files were released by a bot that generates it for any device. We don't have an unlocked bootloader, flashing this will fail. You're essentially baiting people and wasting their time.

So where is it...???
Root DOES exist on the S8 Plus CAN and US variants
I just went on Chainfire's website and the root DOES exist.
Just do CTRL + F or Command +F for Macs and type in the Model Number. In my case it was the G955W. So yes the OP is right and yes there is a root out for all S8 Plus devices for Snapdragon variants.
And no this is not a bot that generates it, this is the real thing.

Hi everybody. I'd want to ask you a question (because I'm new here on honor 8): how much time pass from an update to another one? I see we are currently at B389, but I'd want to know if the update are regular and, if yes, how much regular are them. Thanks in advance for your help and have a nice day
Rommco05 said:
It's realy hard to say. If Honor want to push updates, now we know (after B389) he can push too much OTAs in one time, but is a different to use/have EU/US/China etc because OTAs don't comes for all regions in one time. Next update will be probably B34x and we will see how is Honor quick. Btw Honor was one the first oem whitch bring to our devices Nougat

Why B34x? Idon't understand because we are on B389 and we pass to B34x?

Ops, corrected
When the device was first launched, updates were about 1-3 months in between depending on the model and country. Now it's about 3-5.

Hello,
I'm writing today to get more informations (if anyone know, obviously) about the actual bootloader status.
I just bought a Huawei P20. It's a good device, before wanting to root it.
As you know, the bootloader 16-digits number is no more acquirable thanks to our deer and beloved Huawei company, this means that you can't root your device since may, and not only the P20, also other huawei and other devices. :victory:
I think this decision is really anoying : I buyed an android device to be the master of my device, if I did not want, I would have bought an apple device... But it's like they can't assume Android...
That's why I write, to ask, first, if the bootloader unlock is definitely dead, or is there hope ?
If Huawei don't get the bootloader back, do you think someone of the community can release a way to root the device ?
I almost want to refund the phone because of this...
Thanks
DC Unlocker still offers codes. It'll cost a few bucks, though.

You may want to post the steps to unlock so any developers if any can possibly work on a recovery.

Hope we dont get penalized for being early adopters (maybe like htc cid change?) Hardware should be the same right?
Stupid and probably unlikely to work but can we restore the UK backup? The hisuite has rom flashing in it natively also.... There's also an option internally to flash/upgrade

This unit is a beta prototype for testing/developer and hence it is not locked. The actual commercial set will be locked.
This option is possibly shown due to prototype while I was exploring the phone. My apologies and hope that clarify
