Hi XDA Members,
I have a very curious problem and hope somebody has an idea what could be wrong.
I have a stock phone that has been updated by a friend to 7.0 but now he wants to go back.
I have flashed a one part stock rom with Odin with complete sucess but after reboot (even showing the erasing process)
the phone boots up and 7.0 is still there and even all the apps and data are still available.
So I tried a 4part stock rom and to my surprise the same thing happened. Odin finished with sucess, phone reboots now it
even installs the bloatware apps and yet it is still running 7.0
I am loosing my mind here. Do I need to flash a pit file? Do I need to root before I flash? What am I doing wrong or will I be stuck with 7.0 forever now?
kind regards
Piko

You need flash rom which starts with G920FXXU5D or G920FXXS5D if you want to downgrade to 6.0.1
Btw, you don't have to flash 4 part rom.

I have just flashed the G920FXXU5DQA7_G920FDBT5DQA3_G920FXXU5DPL3_HOME.tar.md5 but now if
I start the phone it says "SYSTEM UI STOPPED" when I hit ok - it just says this again and again. Guess this was the wrong
rom once again? I just hope I did not brick the phone yet. Should I flash it again with another ROM? Could you maybe point me to the correct rom I need to download?
many thanks in advance

My main reason is that they changed some core things. I now cannot stream anything from the phone (screen capture) without root. Also some oculus apps just keep crashing all the time.

Hello I have had the same type of trouble only with mine is >/
I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 from Walmart. It's the Straight talk variant SM-S903VLUDU4APH3. MY phone came with 6.0.1 Mm. I flashed the stock rom 4.4.4 kk using Odin3 V.3.10.6 but upon completion of a successful flash the phone does the reboot process but boots into factory recovery and says installing system update. The says erasing then reboots to where I started from same rom, it's like it allows the phone to get the update but then reboots and does a factory reset.

I have a l04 with the latest 5.0 emui Android 7.0... The issue is that I wanted to format the phone to sell and doing so I deleted the os from twrp on accident and tried flashing the stock rom given from Huawei, but now the phone is giving me errors when trying to flash anything on twrp it tells me zip is corrupt. Not sure what to do from here since I cannot get the 5.0 recovery/boot/cust/system img files. Or the update app to do the 3 button reset.

Just formated data and still you can enter to twrp?

Well i flashed the old img files for android 6 and they are not working i'm guessing because i am coming from android 7, so i flashed the twrp from xda for nougat and that is currently where i am at.

Okay lineage 14.1 worked, but is there any way to go back to emui 5.0?
I used the link on your profile for the go back to stock and I'm on the NRD90M test-keys official, but I wanted to get the b385 update from the team Mt firmware updater and it says it is approved. How would I update it through if the internal updater app on this ROM does not work?
Was able to setup proxy with desktop version and hisuite seems to be updating with new firmware.

Yes thank you for your help.
Background: I got my Honor 8 today, model # FRD-L04 (important later), updated to EMUI 5.1 and Nougat via Updater on phone, and decided I wasn't satisfied with EMUI. So I rooted and that went smoothly, but when I tried to flash a custom ROM, I bricked pretty hard. Long story short, tried flashing multiple ROMs until I found one that worked. The ROM I'm on right now has EMUI 5.1 and build number FRD-C900B131, which is completely different from my original build (FRD-L04). Looked it up and turns out it's a variant of the H8. Unfortunately, I tried to update via Updater and there were no updates available, so I'm stuck with EMUI 4.1 and MM for now (not complaining, since at least it works again). I also tried flashing the rollback ROM for the L04, but I got an incompatibility error when I tried dload method. So now, question is how do I get back to my original stock FRD-L04 ROM, or how do I update to Nougat on this model version (C900B131)?
Thanks for the quick reply. Could you guide me through how I would approach this? I'm not sure which TWRP to use for my (incorrect) build. Do you think using the TWRP for my correct build (L04) should be okay? I'm on EMUI 4.1 also, I think the EMUI version matters too when choosing which TWRP to flash.

Awesome, thank you. I've installed it and it seems to be working fine with no issues. So I found the rollback package for my model (L04), so I should just install this through TWRP? And then install the Honor 8 upgrade firmware? Does that sound right?

Try just flash full firmware, no install rollback. Put zip to sdcard install over twrp and hope for the best, here can happen some unspecific problems. Firmware is right

Dude, i have the same problem, i´m stucked on android 6.0, my build number is C900B131 and it´s FRD-L04. Did you find an update for that exact same number? If so, could you please send it to me?
How about FRD-L09C900B131?
Hi folks.
This is a solution for who get troubles when you flash my own ROMs, it is all about Emui 8 related firmware because they denies the permissions to flash custom roms / root in the latest firmware like AL00XB335, C432B360/B375 or newer, here is a small tutorial to solve this issue once for all by downgrade to the earlier firmware which xLoader.img still present.
Note: this tutorial is for Honor 8 Lite and P8 Lite 2017, for other devices make sure to downgrade to older versions.
Requirements:
Unlocked bootloader.
TWRP, use Honor 9 Lite 0.2 Test build, click here.
NoCheck Oreo Recovery, click here.
Your device should be updated to the latest Emui 8.x versions that generate E1001 Errors.
OEMInfo Dual Sim Devices Only (Since most of you are ds):
AL00X.
C432.
PRA-AL00XC00B310:
update.zip .
update_data_full_public.zip .
update_full_PRA-AL00X_all_cn.zip .
Installation Guide:
Reboot to the TWRP.
Flash the NoCheck Recovery.
Run in the terminal (from adb shell is better)
Note: please flash those package once per time I mean that once you flash update.zip and boot the rom (in case of bootloop just check bootloader status and run factory reset) then reboot to fastboot and flash TWRP again then re-install nocheck recovery via TWRP and do same steps for other 2 packages .
echo –update_package=/sdcard/update.zip > /cache/recovery/command
echo –update_package=/sdcard/update_data_full_public.zip > /cache/recovery/command
echo –update_package=/sdcard/update_full_PRA-AL00X_all_cn.zip > /cache/recovery/command
PRA-LX1C432B321:
update.zip .
update_data_full_public.zip
update_full_PRA-L11_hw_eu.zip .

ok, there is a more recent EMUI stock firmware (B520):
Honor6X-BLN-L22HNC675CUSTC675D2B520 (8.0.0.520) - Shared with pCloud
Keep all your files safe, access them on any device you own and share with just the right people. Create a free pCloud account!
e.pcloud.link
you can use https://www.dropbox.com/s/via9iigwa5q37rf/HWOTA_BLN_Eng.zip
to install it. Some infos about that here.
You should be able to use dload official update, and somehow "Huawei updater" software or "Huawei Firmware Finder" soft or app, also to instal it.
BUT ANYWAY, you should have stock recovery already with the build you install to get EMUI 8 !!! Did you check? That would be the case, after installing the above B520.
If not, look inside those B520 zip files (using "Huawei update extractor" software for update.app if I remember well, google "Huawei update extractor" for all infos), you will get recovery .img files. Flashable with Fastboot or twrp recovery.
But I thnik you are already on stock recovery, or will be after B520 update

Hello, I am having trouble using the DC-Unlocker software. I am trying to follow this tutorial from their official website to unlock the bootloader of my Huawei Mate 9 Lite (BLL-L23) but HiSuite does not seem to work. It shows a pop-up saying "HiSuite will be installed in your device" and then another saying "Instalation error. System version is too old". And then nothing happens, and HiSuite doesn't even recognize my phone.
I have Android 6.0 Marshmallow and I'm trying to upgrade to Android 7.0 Nougat. Also, I have EMUI 4.1.3, and if I'm not mistaken, I should be able to upgrade it to EMUI 5.0.
EDIT: HiSuite seems to have installed the drivers 'Android Adapter PCUI' and 'DBAdapter Reserved Interface' despite the error, but not the 'Android Adapter Modem #2' one, and I don't know how to install it. I'd like to know I have everything needed to proceed successfully before paying the 4.00 €.

Thank you for replying.
My PC runs on Windows 10, so I don't think that is a problem. I could try a Virtual Machine with another one though, which one do you recommend?
As for the instalation, do I have to uninstall my current drivers in order to install the ones you are providing me? Or does it not matter? I will try them ASAP.
P.S.: I found this thread in the DC-Unlocker forums of someone saying not all phones have the 'Android Adapter Modem #2' drivers and it should be possible to read the bootloader code of a Honor 6X without it (I am assuming that Mate 9 Lite == Honor 6X at this point). Should I trust this?
I apologize for the amount of questions, you just seem like an experienced person, and I thank you again for taking the time and having the patience of answering.
