I have totally failed to rebrand my FRD-AL10 (EMUI 5, Nougat) to FRD-L19 (because I was hoping to get rid of all the apps/functions/messages in Chinese) by following the steps listed on another thread.
I did eventually manage to get it to identify as FRD-L19 but when it did boot up it had no stock keyboard only voice commands and the phone was unusable . it said it was Android 7, model FRD-L19 and build number was nrd90m test keys?
I tried to update with the latest FRD-L19 update.app by copying it into the dload and vol up+vol down +power buttons press but the update failed and since then I am stuck with the phone refusing to boot, or to boot into twrp recovery.
It hangs at the booting now orange letters screen (It says "Your device is booting now...." and nothing more happens.
If I hold vol up and power up, it hangs at "Your device is booting now...."
If I wait until it says I can press vol up for Erecovery it goes into Huawei erecovery and that tries to download latest version update by wifi, it connects to wifi but says "Getting package info failed".
If I go to reboot from erecovery it goes back to the Your device is booting now.... and stops.
I can shutdown from erecovery (but if its still plugged in it goes straight back to "Your device is booting now...")
From shutdown (and unplugged from USB) - if I hold vol up+ vol down + power it goes to EMUI Installing update then Software Install failed. The update package does not exist. Please download the package again. Reboot system now.
I don't know how to put an alternative update package into dload when I can only use fastboot mode and nothing else?
I can do that by shutting it own from erecovery shut down page and holding down volume and power up.
I assume I need to go back to stock firmware for FRD-AL10 like this one from another thread FRD-AL10_C00B135_Firmware_China_Nonspecific_Android 6.0_EMUI 4.1_05013LBP
and not version 7.0 stock rom for FLD-L19???
Anyway, I unzipped that and use Huawei extractor tool to extract Boot.img, cust.img, recovery.img and sys.img as suggested on this thread.
I can fastboot flash 3 of those but the cust.img fails to flash with "partition error"
I also tried to fastboot format user data but the command failed FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)
I don't think its possible to use the unbrick function of huawei multitool because I can't get into recovery mode?
I don't think I can get a different copy of update.app file into the dload folder internal memory and use the vol up+ vol down +power buttons because I can no longer get the phone to boot to system.
The fastboot screen says PHONE Unlocked
FRP Unlock
Would be very grateful for suggestions on what I should be doing to unbrick this, please. Sorry for being a stupid newbie.... and I honestly have been reading these threads day and night for 2 days but am still stuck!!
Thanks
Edit: is part of the answer to try to flash a different version of twrp again? So I have to put the right version of twrp.img into my adb folder and then fastboot flash recovery twrp*****.img ? Then I might be able to fastboot boot recovery ? Or if twrp works I can flash the right stock rom? (which one? given I was trying to rebrand)
Or if I could somehow get back system to boot, I could use adb push to put the correct update.app into dload on internal memory and use the vol up+ vol down +power???
Bro first flash the compitable twrp

That was the twrp had success with before..... but everything seemed to go wrong at step 5 of the debranding guide. Where I was supposed to do a data wipe when the device immediately rebooted after installing the zip?
Then I was confused about whether I needed to put the firmware update file into sdcard/dload or not and whether it should be internal memory /close instead. And whether the firmware was correct when it said Android 6 when the phone said it was android 7????
And then there was no keyboard only google voice.....
But I will definitely start by trying to flash that twrp again... and if that can work... then the L19 Rom from your debranding guide again. And let you know.
Thanks

So held down power which started the reboot and enabled me to press vol up to enter erecovery and choose shut down.
then volume down whilst connecting usb to PC to put into fastboot mode
then copy your file twrp-3.1.1-1-frd.img to minimal adb directory on my pc
then in minimal adb: fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1-1-frd.img
I have got that far.
Then do I fastboot reboot?
and hope it boots to system so I can copy over the zip file from my pc with file explorer and then
do I adb reboot recovery (to get into twrp)?
then install the FRD-L19C432B131-hw-eu-OPU_TWRP_FRD.zip file using twrp? (or do you mean another method of installing that rom)?
then still in twrp I do Wipe: format user data?
then do I reboot to system?
At what point do I need to copy the update.app to sdcard\dload and use the vol up+ vol down + power to install the update?
Thanks again

After twrp sucess you have to biot the device it will works normal but you have to go reboot to recovery and do a factory wipe and shutdown then after doebload the official firmware of frd19 which is mm and dlaod the update.app and three buttons trick it will update and relock the bootloader and update to EMUI 5 by the phone updater app in settings
I got this far:
So held down power which started the reboot and enabled me to press vol up to enter erecovery and choose shut down.
then volume down whilst connecting usb to PC to put into fastboot mode
then copy your file twrp-3.1.1-1-frd.img to minimal adb directory on my pc
then in minimal adb: fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1-1-frd.img
then I rebooted and got back to the screen where system fails to load "Your device is booting now"
So I pressed power off and then held down volume up but it boots only to erecovery so I pressed shut down and decided I needed to unplug usb.
I tried again with holding down volume up and powering up and managed to boot into twrp.
In twrp I do wipe: swipe to factory reset.
Twrp says Failed to mount '/cust' (invalid argument)
and Failed to mount '/system' (invalid argument)
with windows explorer on my pc and the phone in twrp I can only see the /sdcard but I can see the FRD-L19C432B131-hw-eu-OPU_TWRP_FRD.zip is there.
So in twrp I go to install and I try to flash FRD-L19C432B131-hw-eu-OPU_TWRP_FRD.zip from /external_sd (with the zip signature check and reboot after install boxes unchecked)
It starts to write UPDATE.APP..... Completed! script succeeded....
E: unknown command []]
updating partition details....
Failed to mount /cust (invalid argument)
Failed to mount /data (device or resource busy)
Failed to mount /system (invalid argument)
Failed to mount /product (invalid argument)
I try to wipe data and get the same Failed to mount messages
I down load Honor 8_Firmware_FRD-L19_Android 6.0_EMUI 4.1_C432B131_United Kingdom .zip on my pc and unzip it.
I copy the dload folder including update.app to Honor 8:microSDcard
Then I went to power off in twrp so I could do the 3 button load from dload but twrp says "No OS installed! Are you sure you want to power off?"
So I'm not sure? Please can you help again?

bro neglet the mount issues after update.app write sucess reboot the phone once and let it boot comoletly .after that dload the offical ROM of frd l19 . and do a reset in stock recovery.
Ok so I rebooted and EMUI said it was doing a factory reset
then the phone booted up with asking me for language, wifi password
then it wants to do a quick update FRD-L19432B360 2.83 GB so I hit quick update.
then it reboots like a normal set up and the keyboard works and everything looks ok. It says that the build number is FRD-L19432B360
Do I still need to do the dload?
Thank you so much - I would never have got this far otherwise!

No bro not needed , enjoy the device .

Bro but i will suggest you to from marshmallow go directly to the new update of nougat using firmware finder because, the update from b360 is stopped, sh!t huawei server stopped the update idk y , many people also stucked in b360 , so my idea is just go to latest update in firmware finder from marshmallow.
Any help just reply.
If you got another update from b360 just neglet my above steps and go on . Enjoy.
It was ok today when it wanted to update to B389. Now I'm stuck back with only erecovery again.
I can get back into fastboot and unlock the phone again and I put on twrp again and got back into it but
I'm confused about which firmware I need to flash
The latest version for FRD L19 in firmware finder is B392 and I would need the 3 files - update.zip, update_full_FRD-L19_hw_eu.zip and update_data_full_public.zip and to flash all 3 - I tried that but got a lot of errors and it won't boot
But I need to flash something or put on the MM dload/MM update you posted first? do I go back to the B131 MM you linked before first? Then I somehow update to the B392?
I'm so sorry to keep asking stupid questions!!

Flash this first update_full_FRD-L19_hw_eu.zip
And then flash update.zip .
If after flashing reboot got strucked in blue screen just format factory resey in recovery.
I flashed update_full_FRD-L19_hw_eu.zip
And then flash update.zip .
They both failed with error 7?
So I went back to your B131 and my phone is unbricked but this time I didn't accept B360.
But how do I get to the latest Nougat?
From Firmware Finder I thought it was B392 for L19CB432 but maybe its B384 for L19C10??

Hi how to downgrade from B317 to B137? I need to reinstall B317 so have to downgrade first. I tried the transition pack B300 but saying failed. Is this transition pack only for B308? Any help?
317>300>137>308>317.
i guess it's failing due to root? What i've done:
stock recovery > 300 > 137
Not root, just normal update with sd card. I tried vol up vol down power force update as well, still saying failed.
ok here is the trick: (i got the same issue)
- put dload on your external sd-card.
- plug the sd-card-holder out of the phone
- do the 3-Buttons
- immediatly after the Huawei-logo disappears, plug the sd-card-holder into the phone.
It's really weired, but many users fixing the downgrade that way

Do this:
- download B300 (maybe yours faulty) and fastboot.zip (including 5.1.1. recovery.img + boot.img package
- Now flash via fastboot the boot.img and also the recovery.img
- put the B300 "UPDATE.APP" into the "dload"-folder on your external sd-card
- plug out the sd-card
- vol up and down + power
- plug in the sd-card quickly after the huawei logo disappears
- ???
- profit!

Thanks. I am just reading old thread regarding the failure, before I attempt to do your suggestion, do I need to unlock the bootloader first?
yes, otherwise flashing via fastboot won't work. But you can first try the B300 i've mentioned without flashing boot.img and recovery.img.

I got the driver installed from HiSuite (Huawei phone management software) and successfully unlocked the bootloader.
Now I probably ready to try your suggestion. Just want to check with you if I got the command right:
---
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
---
I am quite new to root and flashing CWM recovery. Could you please explain what is "boot.img" and "recovery.img" so I know exactly what I am doing? Are they stock recovery?
My initial guess of the problem is my stock recovery may be damaged due to the factory reset on B317. Please correct me if I am wrong.
that's the correct syntax!

I fastboot flashed the boot and recovery image, but the phone is keep rebooting every minute! And still same problem b300 cust fail at 95%.
After reading a number of thread related to cust fail for B300 transition pack, I decided to ignore B300 and go to B137 straight away. B137 update said failed at 90% but after reboot, surprise I am on B137! Motion control still missing. But I fixed it by rooting the device and modify the cust\ directory (accroding to http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate...-fail-t3078530, then I did wipe data/factory reset in stock recovery (no more cust fail), then flashed the B137 again, still failed at 90%, but after reboot, the motion control is back).
Now looks like I got everything back just like "out of box". I am not sure whether I will be getting 90% fail when B137->b308->B312. Haven't tried yet.
All solved, please see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=62883777&postcount=55

i can run fastboot and twrp but nothing else works. i will paypal 15 dollars to someone who can help me
You can download the full firmware directly from honor, unzip it, and place the update.app file in a dload folder that you create on your sd card. Power of the phone then hold volume up, down, and power at the same time to initiate an automatic flash of the room you downloaded. This will erase everything, so be aware.
1.Download full rom from huawei support site then extract update.app
2.place it in dload folder using twrp (in twrp enable MTP)
3.Now extract the recovery.img from update.app using huawei extractor and flash it using fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
4.now power off phone then start phone holding Volume Up ,Volume Down & power button simultaneously
5.it will start updating

oh my god ok now it is stuck at blue honor screen for an hour after update installed automatically without pressing anything. i just pressed volume and power buttons and it started updating. no menu was provided
now it says your device failed verificitaion
so now the bootloader is locked again and the update installed, but it still doesn't boot and when i try to update again it says verification failed

I had the same problem once.
You can try to flash the cust partition of your phone. The "device verification failed"-message should disappear then. It's not enough to only flash boot, system and recovery. If there is a problem with the cust partition of your phone you can also have problems with flashing stock roms via "dload"-method.
1. Download the right stock firmware via the huawei firmware finder. You usually have two .zip files (e.g. update.zip & update_full_BLN-L21_hw_eu.zip). The image file for the cust partition can be found in the update_full_BLN-L21_hw_eu.zip (choose the right one for your model).
2. Unpack update_full_BLN-L21_hw_eu.zip and extract the cust partition with the huawei firmware extractor.
3. Put your phone into fastboot mode
4. Use the following command: fastboot flash cust cust.img
5. Try to boot into your stock rom.
Hi, i have a honor 8 FRD-L09 unlocked bootloader, I don't know what was the original rom. I can't start it, I tried to install many versions, with dload nothing is working it stops at 5% and gives an error,I achieved to get one at 25% but it then failed but with fastboot and huawei extractor im able to install recovery,boot,system img files but it doesn't changes anything. I have access to erecovery but when I try to connect to a wifi it says that it's a wrong password even though im sure it's the right. If anyone is able to help me it could be nice, Thank you.
I installed twrp recovery but it still boots on emui erecovery.

You need to remove your USB cable to boot on TWRP (press "Power" and "Vol+" buttons, and only release "Power" - only hold "Vol+" - button when first blue screen appears).
If your phone is stuck on message "Device is booting...", you flashed a wrong TWRP version. Ask me if you want to try an another version.
But firstly, did you try this how-to (dload folder method): https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/problem-frd-l09-t3596449 ?
Is there a model number written bottom back of your phone? (real FRD-L09 model?)
Good luck! =)

I just tried this dload method but the software installation failed at 30%. I don't even know if flashing twrp is really useful and the number on the back of the phone is FRD-L09. I don't know what to do.

Is it "Rollback package" UPDATE.APP which fail at 30%? Try "firmware B131" UPDATE.APP directly, if you have not.
I don't know about extracting ".img" from an UPDATE.APP file and flashing them... seems dangerous. ^^
If you boot on TWRP, you will be able to follow this thing (use FRD-L09 link and do all steps and step 5. fully: "Dlload For FRD-L09" flash to complete properly): https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/guide-honor-8-to-frd-l19-t3632220
I can't help you more if it fails again, sorry...

Rollback package is okay but the firmware fails. I've tried the method with twrp but system.img won't install. I even tried to extract it and install it with fastboot but it says "cannot load system.img"

Try this 10 steps, that's the last idea I could give you...
0. Need an unlocked bootloader / Knowing how to boot on bootloader and use adb/fastboot command-line tools. (GUIDE HERE)
1. Download TWRP:
-- 1a) Recent version (EMUI 5.x installed firmware): twrp-3.1.1-1-frd.img and use fastboot command to flash it
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1-1-frd.img
>>>> If phone is stuck on message "device is booting now..." when you try to boot TWRP, use old version.
-- 1b) Old version (EMUI 4.1 installed firmware): twrp-3.0.2-0-frd-modaco-rc1.img and use fastboot command to flash it
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-0-frd-modaco-rc1.img
2. Download this modded FRD-L09C432B131 firmware (.zip): here
3. Copy the zip file to your SD card. (You can do that when your phone is booted on TWRP: plug your USB cable)
4. In TWRP, go to "Wipe" > "Format Data".
5. In TWRP, go to "Flash" > Select the zip file and flash!
6. When finished, do step 4 again before rebooting your phone!
7. Phone can take some minutes to boot, take it easy! If it works, download "stock" (original) B131 firmware: https://www.hihonor.com/uk/support/details/index.html?DOC_ID=92101
8. Open the zip file and extract "dload" folder on your computer. Then copy the "dload" folder inside your SD card (root of the SD card).
9. Flash it with "Power" + "Vol-" + "Vol+" buttons.
10. Last step (RECOMMENDED) - Factory reset: how-to

I was in trying to update Oreo beta version from bln nougat and something failed while updating on screen at 50% and now I got these errors... I'm able to flash recovery_ramdisk via fastboot but I still get those errors.
Please, anybody help?

I also tired flashing TWRP through recovery_ramdisk
And it didn't work. I used the command fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk BLN_twrp.img and it doesn't lead me to recovery either. I'm stuck at those errors and only able to enter fastboot. Please help ?

Use oreo update.app and extract recovery from it then flash it then use sdcard download b360 package and bln-l22 update.app and use dload method it will boot but lock the bootloader so flash 3.56gb package first
There are many different recovery images in it
I have three for recovery. Recovery_ramdis.img recovery_vendor.img and recovery_vbmeta.img
Also recovery2 images which one should I use?
BLN-L22C675B340 update zip (update app package) doesn't work? Why b360? I'll Google and download it right away then
It's stuck there
I flashed the Oreo recovery and used sd update method with the folder close and the update.app from BLN-L22C675B340 but that's all I get. I can't boot into the recovery...only plugging the USB + volume up&down button and power on...but instead of emui update, it shows something like and USB cable...if I stick the USB cable it gets stuck in 5% and does nothing...if I remove it and install it says software install failed
Still not working

It flashed them all. The only thing that was kinda weird is that it said that there was no recovery.img found in the external sd card. Then... I rebooted and it's stuck with the honor bootanimation
Thank you

All I did was the obvious that I had forgotten. I wiped again everything to factory reset and it's finally working. Thank you so much for your time and help again, dude. I'm not touching my phone's system until the official update to Oreo is launched LOL. Have a great rest of the day

Hi,
When tried to change region bricked my phone, please help me.
Normal boot - phone asks me to enter password to decrypt storage, however it wasn't encrypted.
ATM i have: Honor 8 with TWRP recovery(cannot mount or wipe /data(Invalid argument, tried different filesystems)), dload does not work(just stuck at Honor bootscreen), adb do not see phone.
Tried to install update.zip via TWRP, gives error.
Any ideas?
I was also at this point of ****ness. Try turn off phone, stick vol down and connect usb to pc (it will boot to bootloader), do unlock bootloader. After that boot to twrp, format data, flash l09-c10 oem .img file, than 398 russian firmware via hurupdater and reboot to system. It helped me.
Bootloader already unlocked. Where i can find .img file? Do i need to unpack firmware? Cause i have update.zip, inside is update.app file.
