You need roll back package for L29. It will be around 90 mb. Put it in dload folder in sdcard. Then go to dialer and type *#*#2846579#*#* and then select software upgrade. It will reboot and will undergo that process or you can do that three finger process. Once it is done you can reboot back to your OS. This time put the B1xx or B3xx firmware in dload folder and try to do that again. It will go back.
In my case I went back from L29C432B560 to L29C432B180 doing this way. I am saying this from my personal experience. Key here is the rollback package from Huawei. It is there in one of the threads or you can google Huawei rollback package. Once you get that you resolve your issue.
Another thing I observed is locked bootloader.
Hope it works out for you.

Go to this link
http://m.huawei.com/mymobile/consumer/support/downloads/index.htm
And select the last one L29C900B500
That is the one I used.
If that code doesn't work then try the 3 finger rule
After you do with this rollback package
You will once again come back to nougat
You can check the build number if the process is successful.
Then you have to dload again to B180 or B3xx
Hope this works for you

Don't think it will make any difference. You may try to install update.zip (EMUI 4.0) via twrp.
Just checking. Is your FRP unlocked?

Can you boot to bootloader and check if FRP is unlocked or lock?
Make sure your original firmware (6.0) is full not ota.

I had the same problems.
option 1
I downloaded stock B560 zip files
flashed it in TWRP
next I locked the bootloader
now the dload to rollback - worked. buildnumber - changed
then another dload to B180 to go back.
after that I did dload to B190
updated to B560 using system update. then I flashed kangvip B577 and its all good now.
my phone was debranded to L29c432 so I used these files.
you have to get the right set of files for your phone model especially stock firmware.
roll back package from here
http://m.huawei.com/mymobile/consumer/support/downloads/index.htm
locked bootloader and stock recovery did the trick for me.
hope it works out for you. :good:

You can change by switch off your phone then press volume down and plug in your usb cable. It will bring you to bootloader mode. From there it will tell you bootloader and FRP status

Bricked mate 9 after update (with TWRP installed)

Hello everyone;
My mate 9 (MHA-L29) is stuck in a bootloop after trying to root it using TWRP
what happened is that after unlocking bootloader, I flashed TWRP and rebooted, after the phone booted it asked for an OTA update, downloaded the update and executed it but the phone failed and booted into TWRP so I rebooted the phone without swiping to confirm changes; I did it a second time same thing but this time while it was on TWRP I swiped and it started running some scripts, I rebooted the phone and now it's stuck,
Erecovery is not able to download the firmware
I downloaded a firmware ( L29C636 ) and tried to flash it with putting the Update.app in dload folder and booting but it fails at 5%
I really appreciate your help guys, thanks in advance

Reverting to stock [SOLVED]

I have been trying to revert to stock with no luck. What I want to do is install the latest update, but I can't because I had twrp installed. I flashed the original recovery. The problem is when I try to use eRecovery I get "Getting package info failed" error. when I try to download the b385 full update for the FRD-L04 I get a dead link. I was able to download the rollback package, but will I be able to get back to the latest version after I install the rollback package? when I try to use other update packages for my phone I get "Incompatibility with current version" error. Do I need to lock my bootloader in order to update? The good news is that my phone works fine, bad news is that I can't up date.
build number: FRD-L04C567B385

Thanks for the link, I just been to heck and back with this phone. first I uninstalled Magisk. After that my phone wouldn't boot, it would just hang on the blue screen after the initial boot screen. I tried to find a stock boot Image for my version. Once I installed that my phone would boot loop so I managed to get into fastboot and flash TWRP. Once in TWRP I restored my B360 backup and got my phone working again. Then I flashed the stock recovery. Tried to boot into the stock recovery but that wouldn't load. Some how I got it to install the rollback package and now i'm at version B300. Good news is I'm back to stock and can boot int the stock recovery. Time to see if I can update to the latest version.
Edit I think I might have a problem. It won't let me update also it shows my phone as "FRD-L04C900" not "FRD-L04C567" is there any way I can fix this?

I think you will have to restore you oeminfo partition backup through twrp.
On mr FRD-L09, I had to relock my bootloader, then get the rollback package and put the .app on my SD card and hard flash it, then do the same with the rom .app file. Thet got me back to stock marshamllow, and I just let all the updates run through until I'm now on the latest.
Stock is missing some bits, and has some irritations, but the camera is sooo much better than custom roms, and GPS works, as does Android Pay etc. I've not bothered rooting, AdGuard does the ad-blocking and the rest is liveable.
Well I think I'm my phone is screwed. I can't boot into recovery and when it boots it bootloops once and then it is stuck on the "your device is unlocked and can't be trusted. Fastboot still works fine I can lock and unlock the bootloader. I can flash Recovery and TWRP in Fastboot but neither one will boot. I think I might have flashed the wrong update or it happened when I flashed the rollback package. I want to try DC Phoenix but they won't let me buy credits because my PayPal account is unverified. I have downloaded the "Honor 8_Firmware_FRD-L04_Android 6.0_EMUI 4.1_C567B122_United States_Nonspecific" from the hihonor.com site. I extracted it and flashed the recovery, boot, and system image through fastboot. The phone still won't boot into recovery or boot into the OS. Is there a way to fix this or is it time for a new phone.
Thank you everybody for your help.
Ok my phone is fixed. What I did was buy 15 credits for DC Phoenix and flashed the "Honor 8_Firmware_FRD-L04_Android 6.0_EMUI 4.1_C567B122_United States_Nonspecific" package. When I rebooted my phone it automatically went into ERecovery and downloaded and installed the B162 update. I was able to fully boot after that It updated to B360 and then B388.
Thank you everybody for your help.

How did you flash the file you mentioned above? Did you put it on the SD card and used TWRP?
Also, what is so special about that file?
I have the L14 (64gb US version) and just about the same exact problem you describe.
If you have any extra steps that would help me recover mine that would be great.

I followed the instuctions for the honor 7. I would recommend finding the full update firmware for your phone. It took me a lot of googling to find it. Make sure it is the correct firmware, you need to match the numbers before the B-- for me it was (FRD-L04C567) and for you it would be (FRD-L14????) I hope this helps.

After you flash the firmware, you must format data with emui recovery, and it will boot up
After trying different methods, this one works
Download

2. Honor_8_Firmware_FRD-L04_Android_6.0_EMUI-4.1_C567B122_United_States_Nonspecific
Put on dload (sd card) #1 after shutdown the phone and put on the folder dload (Sd card) #2. after reboot your phone starts with android 6.0
Try this

Ok so i had the exact problem, im not sure if this will help but what I did was flash my cust recovery system and boot through bootloader, I then put the dload folder on my sdcard with the update.app in it, from there I put my phone into download mode so hold all 3 buttons until it goes into download mode. Once there it will automatically install the update.app, and you should be good to go. If not than go to recovery mode do a factory reset and wipe the cache and see if that works.

Failed to flash twrp in nougat 7.0

Yes its possible to flash twrp...
What error it gives while you try to flash twrp...
What version. Of twrp you used??
It is possible that it doesn't boot, and... This happens if you flashed the TWRP available on official TWRP site (I remember that, it happened to me also).This is because they've uploaded a version that doesn't work with our device (it's there from months now, i don't understand why it is still there... I have to report that), but no worries; you can solve this easily flashing the OpenKirin version of TWRP that you can grab here https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-6x/development/twrp-t3583413 flash it via fastboot like you already did with the actual TWRP, and you're ready to go. I tried it on different builds, it always works and i still thank OldDroid's work on it for making TWRP working on Honor 6X.

Boot animation problem

Hi
since i flash my update rom android 7.0
i have two Boot Animation
first is for honor
second is huawei
how remove second one?
plz help me
Try to clean flash your firmware through dload method, trying to be accurate while flashing. Something surely went bad while flashing the update you're talking about. Maybe you flashed the 7.0 for another variant, and now it messed up the firmware. Go on hwmt.ru site -> firmware database, and recover your ROM update package.
You have to pay attention and flash ONLY packages that matches your build number first 9 characters. Like "BLN-L21C432Bxxx", for example, will work only on a BLN-L21C432Bxxx. Flash only packages with PV at the end of the name.
