HELP Honor 8 Boot-Loop After OTA out of the box [FRD-L19]. - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

Hi all
My honor 8 just arrived yesterday,
Turned it on and it prompted me for a software update and it went in to a boot-loop.
Not sure what fw it was on before the update, also unsure what version it was upgrading to.
Later found out trough fastboot that it is (FRD-L19C636B386).
Tried to factory reset (no luck)
Tried eRecovery method, keeps showing (Getting package info failed)
Tried the 3 finger method with FRD-L19C636B380, keeps showing (Software install failed Get help from http://www.emui.com/emotiondownload.php?mod=restore)
Tried to flash trough fastboot, unfortunately it can't be done without unlocking the bootloader.
Wanted to unlock the bootloader but seems like it requires the phone to be able to boot to OS before I can get the unlock code.
Anyone having the same issue or have other alternatives/solutons for me to try?
Cheers!

Try rollback package

Hi I also have L19 and trying to update to B380 from B360 thru OTA using Firmware Finder. And your issue happened to me. It just bootloops then goes to eRecovery but it has error " Getting package into failed".
So can you help me step by step on how you fixed your phone? Thanks!
Tried using Rollback package. but now my new error is "Data partition was damaged seriously! ..."
I dont know what to do anymore, I just bought this phone 5 days ago, sad life.

Rommco05 said:
Have you unlocked bootloader? If no try install B360 via dload method. B360 download over Firmware Finder
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I just checked the fastboot mode it says:
Phone Locked
FRP Lock
1. what to do to unlock bootloader?
2. Whats happening now is, the "Honor" logo boots twice then goes to Huawei eRecovery. Under eRecovery it has option "Download latest version and recovery" > "Download and recovery" > "Starting WIFI failed". Actually I can connect to wifi earlier and this what happens to the eRecovery "Getting package info failed". But now it CANT connect to the wifi.
3. I tried the firmware rollback but it didnt help

Rommco05 said:
2. Try remove password from your wifi connection and again try download recovery
Or, download full firmware B360 (2 zips) unzip both and separately put to dload foldet on sdcard
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This is what I'm doing now downloading FRD-L19C636B360 Full OTA which is 1.4GB from boycracked.com then will use the 3 button combo to install it using dload folder in the sd card. Still waiting to download the file. Will update you once tried
What do you mean by the "(2 zips)" ? What I only know it has UPDATE.APP.

whats the 2nd fie?

Rommco05 said:
It is region zip, contains apps like emui calendar, Hicare, themes...
edit: both need be unziped and flashed separately

The 1st file will be installed thru the 3 buttons from sdcard>dload folder.
1. How do you flash the 2nd file?
2. Do I also put it in the dload folder together with the 1st file?
Sorry bout d questions, m really noob, it's my 1st huawei device

Rommco05 said:
No problem, Im not sure because I dont ude this method.
But, 1st one goes biggest. After installation 1st boot to rom or just turn off phone and put second one to dload. Yes tru 3 buttons combo

I might still be able to finish the download after 6 hours since it's only running around 50kb/s, server is too slow. I hope this goes really well, will give update tom thanks!

I followed d FF video from youtube by MT team, I dont know what became d problem in d installation of d b380 update and made this to my unit.
Btw after install the 2 files should i wipe data and cache before using it?

Rommco05 said:
No need to be wiped anything. You remember if firmware which you try install was labeled with PV on end name of fw?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
There were 2 b380 available, 1st is 300mb 2nd file is full ota. I only downloaded d full ota. No PV at d end as far as i remember. Used wifi proxy > system update ota > start download pause > return wifi config > resume ota update.

Rommco05 said:
Ithink this was issue, if you want install some firmware or update (Nougat) must be always labeled with PV, with this is able to install over dload or twrp
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I think PV filenames is for twrp. I just read that updating to b380 you need to rollback to b120 which is marshmallow then jump to b380. As long as i can return it to my stock b360 Im fine with it. I will just wait for Oreo or OTA update without using FF since this issue is driving me nuts. It's just 5 day old phone n this already happened. My download is still at 50% very frustrating download speed

Rommco05 said:
As far I know every update must by labeled with PV if will can be installed manualy, this is "offline firmwares" wich don't need be checked online by Huawei
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I have downloaded the 2 files. When I extract the 1st file it has 3 files ( meta-INF, update.app, full_mainpkg.tag). Should I put these 3 files to the dload folder or just the update.app?

Rommco05 said:
All files from each zip together, but zips must separately. I'm going for today off, if will something wrong I have look tomorrow
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The 1st file worked my phone now booted, but the problem is I cant pass thru setup/google account because it doesnt have keyboard just voice command. Why no keyboard, it's my 1st time to see this happened as well, was there a problem with my download?
Im now in the process of installing the 2nd file you gave thru 3 combo, lets see if it gives me a keyboard.

It's in test version,but if you want maybe try:
Open firmware finder on pc ,start firmware update and copy the link for the firmware you want to flash,the link should be like http:..../..../f1/
And click start the server.
On your phone connect to the same wifi as ur pc,go to wifi settings, click and hold on the connected network,you will see advance settings,fill ip same as the ip of ur pc and port same as the one in firmware finder.
Once done go to update in phone settings and check for updates,you should see a new firmware update.
Hope you will understand.

yeah did that several times , the latest huawei device i had was the mate 7 , i didn't know they locked the update process via the dload method, i wouldn't allowed my gf to buy this phone if i knew , i thought i would be able to fix it quickly but oh well she'll just have to return it, one more reason to make me happy that i opted for the pixel xl instead of the mate 9
I have the LON-L29C636B124 firmware, the app from play store found the B139 for this device/donwloaded/md5 checked/unpacked and moved to the Dload folder bjt when i go the recovery it says there is nothing on that folder.

Doesn't work, downloaded the update, moved to reload folder, starts update and fails verification.
Ok, selected the ota not full B138 it updated, the security patch is december, ank kernel info date also december, but why it shows 126 instead of 138?
Maybe it just updated minor things not the full system?
And after update i do not notice anything.

You don't have to download the update in firmware finder,you only need to activate the server update in firmware finder and change the proxy, after that you go to system update and check for updates.

New firmware B389 for FRD-L09

In Firmware Finder is new ROM with build number 389. Unfortunately, no flashable
Hopefully that means that they will release an update soon
Please stop creating new threads for every non flashable update.
I noticed it too...hope they'll make some of it flashable someday... a lot of updates and i'm stuck on B380 lol.
P.s i know that B381 is avaible and flashable but i don't know how to do it. First time with Huawei/Honor device xD

I'm not 100% sure but I believe you need stock boot and recovery + unrooted.

And if you're running TWRP 3.1 just flash the zips from there. First the update.zip, then the hw_eu one, and then flash supersu for root. https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/development/root-supersu-2-81-emui-5-t3612258
That's how i upgraded from B380 and it works perfectly.

This method don't require twrp or root, this is the same process of the original ota upgrade application, but in manual mode.
Disregard this comment, posted to wrong thread.
hi
Can someone explain me, why is there this kind of update published, non flashable one? internal testing purpose?
Is there a way to update my phone to b389, b388 or other, more than b381, with or without root, even if I have to factory reset my phone, reinstall stock recovery?
You just have to try reading. This topic here and more ...
Hi guys, i've update correctly with twrp to B381 (forgot to flash supersu so...no root. Lol) but i have a problem. On B360 in "Smart assistence" I had the function "Smart Key" to choose ehat to do when the fingerprint key was pressed. Now, after this update i have no more this function. It doesn't show up, even if i try to search it. It has been disabled or should i try to factory reset?

Honor 8 stolen and flashed

Hello, guys i need your help here. My 2 week old Honor 8 was stolen by thief. Police retrieved the phone and I got it back. Problem is that the thief did something to the phone and tried to remove/replace IMEI and ROM so he wouldnt be tracked down by police, which obviously didnt help him. Now i got my phone back and there is writing " This phone is unlocked and cannot be trusted" everytime i reboot it, but it loads at least. I tried to flash the phone with Rollback and stock firmware from hihonor.com website but without luck. Flashing stops at 5% saying version mismatch or something like that.
2 more cents:
1. About phone shows 2 different IMEIs
2. Version number shows: FRD-C900B120
I would like my phone back to stock firmware without root or anything, i dont need that.
Can anyone help me out here? Thanks a lot!
Hi, i had your problem, stuck at 5% and here (in another thread) some people helped me, so i'm telling you what i did hoping i can help you too.
Update process:
First of all be sure to download the firmware updated (Marshmallow) http://download-c.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=92125&version=360419&siteCode=it-h
After the download is finished:
1. Make a backup, then format your External SD card from your PC (FAT32 should be fine)
1. Unzip (just extract) the update.zip and you should have "UPDATE.APP". Transfer this file to the SD card into the dload folder (if folder is not present, create it yourself). Pay attention, when i did this i haven't any file on the formatted sd card, so do this before transfer anything else
2. In the dialer app, enter the combination *#*#2846579#*#* and select "Software Upgrade" to make the updating process from SD start
3. If everything goes fine but the phone does not boot (bootloop on Honor logo), enter to recovery and wipe data and cache
I think that there is no need to use the rollback package as you weren't on a new software, so just download this firmware and you should be fine flashing it.
P.S The firmware i linked is for model FRD-L09, as i don't know where to find yours. If your phone is European version, then you can download and try to install it. After all, when the phone boots you can update to Nougat via OTA to B380 firmware if you want. Let me know if you succede
It did not help unfortunately. I downloaded the zip, extracted and moved dload with .app in it to formated SD card. dialed the number, selected the package, phone rebooted to twrp and nothing happend. so I turned it off and tried (+ - power button) install, it started installing but after 5% it says "Incompatibility with current version. Please download the correct package." and reboot system now. Same outcome as with rollbackers before
dunno whats my correct version tbh, "About phone" shows under Model: FRD and under Version: FRD-C900B120. thats all i got. btw I live in czech rep.

Okay, shouldn't have rebooted to twrp.. But if manually update fails maybe it's the case to try with the correct firmware. If you can find the firmware wich begins with FRD-L09C40 (wich belongs to Czech Republic) you can retry the update process. I searched around the web but found anything (maybe because i'm in italy, idk) but you can try to search in another thread here on xda. I saw a list of original firmware if i'm not wrong. You can try see there or ask them if they can provide a link for the correct firmware you need. Sorry if i can't help anymore

If bootloader is unlocked, there should be no problem with flashing it via adb manually or TWRP.
If this fails, there is always a way how to fix it, with DC-Phoenix.

Honor 8 brick impossible

Good evening
Sorry in advance if this is not the right section to describe my problem,
I have a Honor 8 Chinese version of Frd-L10 I did the shredding procedure to make it European with twrp-3.1.1 and https://forum.xda-developers.com/hon...d-l19-t3632220 then Rinived with marshmallow and then updated for you official procedure performed perfectly.
The phone worked for about 10 o'clock when one morning asked me to take a further update that I trusted but that the phone did not like not restarting and stopping at the screen where she asks with the three black screen keys with the three Download keys Latest version and recovery - reboot - shutdown.
I tried to roll back with the dload both with the FRD-L19C432B120 and with the FRD-L19C432B131 but came up to 10% and exclamation point and can not continue.
The only two zones he can enter is the ignition key coming in wipe that I also ran and the normal ignition as I described above.
It does not enter key jun mode and power Fastboot & resecue
I hope in some great mind that it can help me
I hope I have described it well

Step1
Here the twrp flashable frdl19 https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B63ZqpBoL_d8MFZjeTl1d2d4Mnc/view
Step2

Dload means extrqct thr downloaded zip and there is update.app file copy to sdcard/dload and power off your phone and press and hold all three buttons after vibrate release the power button ,it take some to complete the update.
Thats it

I am free now 2 days holiday, i am willing to help all, so if some one wants me to help, I definitely will .
Thanks for your answers now I am explaining my situation I have a HONOR 8 4GB 64Gb FRD_AL10 and I had a strong brick
Only through DC-UNLOKED I managed to reprogram the FIRM_FACTORY and then insert a new firm .....
My problem is that I can not find a proper combination between Firm factory and Firm stock
Here's what I put in DC-UNLOCKED on the poor server:
firm_factory:
FRD-AL10_HL1FRDAL00M303_Factory_firmware_general_Android_6.0_EMUI_4.1
FRD-L04_M001035_Factory_firmware_general_Android_6.0_EMUI_4.1
I then add to these a FRD-L19C432B131 firm
Everything so far is done perfectly by making combinations between
FRD-L04_M001035_Factory_firmware_general_Android_6.0_EMUI_4.1
FRD-L19C432B131 (European model)
The problem that when I run an update with Firmware Finder at nougat any edition 360 380 381 etc etc. the phone assumes after the update goes to the cursed NRD90M test-key, which is why the firmware used is not the right one.
Can you help me if you have any sources to have a proper firmware combination ???
I need the Europa Italia version
Thank you all
Someone can help me ???
during an installation and reboot my honor 8 is dead ....
At this time if boot from power the screen stays black usb dead high only the green color notification LEDs flashing ..............

It may be because you flashed it manually. And unless we have rollback package for your model you may not be able to rollback to MM. Are you planning to install custom ROM or want to be on stock rom only.
Updater is not there means tou wont get OTA bit test build wont impact anything.
You may need to flash the oeminfo of your model as well.

Hi.
Bought gr 5 '17 yesterday. Running MM.
I want to update to Nougat, cant find my build number in firmware finder list.
Fb group admin (also member here...) suggested to download a B 370 package.
I want to ask will it work for B160?
Also, any link to step by step instructions for update? Sorry, non tech person here...
Note: if i click to dl a package from Firmware finder, it shows dl as a zip file. Once download is complete, then what?
Thanks in Advance.

I would advise to wait for official OTA (as you got the phone yesterday) but if you really want to do it-
Download this- http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1279/g104/v82620/f2/full/update.zip
and this http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/...cseas/update_data_full_BLL-L22_hw_spcseas.zip
Flash first file and boot to system. Then 2nd and boot.
You need to use dload method as below
Unzip 1st file and extract the package. You will get few files including update.app.
Few suggest to use only update.app file but I would advise, based on my personal experience for all dload method I tried, use all the files.
Create a folder dload under SD card and copy all the files to this folder.
Power off the phone. Remove USB cable, if connected.
Press volume up+volume down keys and simultaneously press power button (3 keys together)
Your phone will automatically detect the package and will start the update process.
Once the update process is successful, you will get a message as update was successful and your phone will restart automatically.
During restart, phone will verify the system image.
This verification and 1st boot may take upto 2-3 minutes so do not panic.
Repeat the same with 2nd zip file.
Good luck. Happy Flashing.

Thank you very much for the detailed instructions and links.
I think I will take your advice and wait for OTA update.
As mentioned, I am not too 'tech' and am worried might do the wrong thing.
Is it normal for my build # not to have nougat update yet?....
I will bookmark this post and report back in a week. Hopefully I will have an update by then.
Thank you again shashank1320

You welcome. Welcome to XDA and tech stuff.
Yes it is normal. Update may pop up anytime. Have you inserted the SIM yet? If not, putting the SIM may help. Also it may take upto a week for your phone to register and get update.

Thank you for your Welcome Shashank I hope to learn alot from the XDA Forum and you, since this is my 1st Android phone o).
I had not inserted the SIM before, since I'm still learning how the phone works and was playing around with the GR 5 17 without the SIM.
I have inserted the SIM and just like you said; I got an update from the Settings menu.
I am downloading update : BLL-L22C636B360 as we speak.
I am worried since I read on this thread that it might have some problems....
I will post an update once completed.
I am excited to learn more about Android from the XDA Forum, and how I can keep my GR 5 17 in the best condition.
Thank you again for your support Shashank. Stay Well

I have downloaded the B360 update. As you mentioned, I have received another update and am now on : Build number ~: BLL-L22C636B384 , EMUI : 5.0.1, Android : 7.0
Things seem to be working fine for now.
I wanted to ask you about any good Dark theme for the GR5-17.
Do you suggest from the Huawei themes (built in) or from :EMUI theme factory? (an app I dl from PlayStore.
Thank you, Stay Well
