Flash a custom rom from B380 - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

Hello,
since I have some problems with my Honor 8 and my firmware is quiet old B380,
I wanna factory reset and take advantage to update/flash a custom rom like Lineage.
I have unrooted my phone and flashed the B380 stock boot.img
Can I just wipe and flash a custom rom using TWRP ?
Or I need to downgrade the version like B120 or something ? If yes could you help me a bit? Should I use the dload method and flash a recovery stock or something
Its been a long time i did that ^^'
Thanks for help

Just follow the instructions on the rom page on xda

For RROS it only say to factory reset/delete fingerprints and flash the rom+gapps
But I also need to have B385, do you think it's necessary ? What is the best way to update ?

You only need nougat installed on your phone before doing this

Ok thanks for help but
I finaly updated to B389, but I don't think I will flash RROS or any other custom rom
I I've heard too many bad things/bug with these custom roms or maybe convaince me otherwise ^^

Plzzzz give me the right advice for downgrading.....

I am a new xiaomi user. My mi 4i is on v 7.2.3.0(lximida). I want to downgrade to v 6.6.10 . I have no root and so no TWRP installed. In many post and thread I wanted to know how to do it using sock recovery. And they gave various answer as below :-
1)download the version and flash using TWRP recovery after wiping cache and data.
2)some dude told that downgrade using Fastboot (but I don't want to use pc).
3)some dude mentioned that download the Rom and rename it update. Zip... Go to updater option.... And apply update.
4)some mentioned download it...... Rename it..... Go to stock recover...... Wipe cache and data...... apply update.
5)one dude mention that if I am downgrading then in Stock recovery I have to wipe system also before applying update. (but there is no option of wiping system in Stock recovery)
So I am little worried that which is the safe method of downgrading if I have no root and no TWRP installed. Frankly speaking I have no PC so I want to know about mostly stock recovery method.

Don't bother going down this path, it wont end well. If you don't want to root and you don't want to fastboot, you're in the wrong forum. TWRP and root is the easiest way to downgrade your phone. Why do you want to downgrade to miui6 from 7 in any case? if you're not a root user the general consensus is that stock miui7 on the mi4i is a better performer in general.

Atfirst thanx for replying...
Actually... I am a pretty much root user.
At first I want downgrade for installing custom Roms as I think I have to downgrade for installing most of custom Roms.
I want to root but kingroot or biadu like apps is not working on miui v 7.2.3.0 and I don't have a PC.
OK I will manage a PC or laptop..atleast can u briefly give instruction on proper way (root and twrp way)for downgrading to v 6.6.10.
(Plz don't mention the fastboot method and )

For rooting it's better if you try and google for a website in your native language rather than make a mistake.
For installing custom Roms no need to go that far as to downgrade. Just flash your rom and use the files attached here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=62420527&postcount=2
Specifically the miui fix and wifi fix after flashing your rom. No need to downgrade your ROM to 6.6.1.0. Only things different from miui 6 and 7 is the wifi driver and the partitions so these two fix those problems
The best and proper way to downgrade (for me) is to flash via fastboot, which results in a clean and unmodified device.
OK ....I did it by stock recovery....and everything is superb....thanx for sharing opinion guys

You can unroot and update via OTA but when you have a unlocked bootloader OTA's are always risky.
Just download latest ROM for your phone and flash it, instruction are also given and is pretty easy and safe.

No. Just start flashing according to the instruction. Root is a system level thing and does not interrupt in flashing. You have to root again after flashing unless it is a pre-rooted rom.
But as you are upgrading first flash stock motorola rom whichever is latest.

Look you can do flashing and upgrading in more than one way.
Just follow this link and do exactly what it says: If you have any question PM me, I will gladly help.
Also by flashing this way your recovery will be replaced by stock recovery and you have to reflash TWRP.
Your phone will be completely stock and all data will be erased.
Note:
Read very carefully before doing anything.
Also download correct rom for your device. The model no. should match.

So you wanted to go Nougat or Twisted? If you want to go for Nougat. I suggest you use TWRP 3.0.2 (Nougat).
1. Reboot to TWRP
2. Format data
3. Advance Wipe (Dalvik, Cache, Data & System)
4. Reboot to Recovery (Optional)
5. Install update_data.zip (Do not reboot)
6. Install update.zip (Do not reboot)
7. If you want to root your phone. You can install at this step.
8. Install TWRP 3.0.2-Nougat (You need to install this again because update.zip will replace it with stock recovery)
9. Reboot to System.
10. Wait for few minutes (5-10mins)
That's all.

Don't worry. I'm just wanted to be sure you did the right way. Your original region is L29C185?
What you can do next is to downgrade it to B180(EMUI4) first via dload and check your build number if is NXT-L29C185B180. Search the thread on downgrade method using rollback update.app (EMUI5 to EMUI4)
Tell me the result later.

You need to rollback first.
HUAWEI Mate8 Rollback Package (NXT-L29, from EMUI5.0+Android7.0 rollback to EMUI4.0)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/general/huawei-mate8-rollback-package-nxt-l29-t3498256
Then only you can downgrade to B180. Once you have dload B180. Do factory reset (Press Volume Up + Power). You'll be fine.
If your build number is NXT-L29C185B180 after installing B180 then redo the steps of installing Nougat. Just follow my previous steps.

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.

How to install Oreo ROM?

Hi! I'm really humbly sorry, I'm new to this stuff, so I have to ask you...
I have a Galaxy S8+ Duos (SM-GD955FD). I bricked it once or twice trying to root it. So I had to flash a sammobile.com ROM...
Now this is done, I have a successfully rooted phone with with the Baseband version G955FXU1AQH3 and the irritating "security notice" (since I was not able to install Magisk, and the NotifyClean app doesn't work either).
I would like to flash the latest Oreo and root it. I also heard good things about the Oreo ROM by alexega.
So: I'm on AQH3 rooted. What can I do?
Thank you for your patience.
If wou want to install stock ROM you must follow this instructions: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+/how-to/guide-how-to-flash-crap-using-odin-t3748555. Bear in mind that if you install stock due to security issues you can't unlock OEM for 7 days after flashing (you must not reboot your phone for 170 hours).
If wou want to flash a custom rom you must have TWRP installed, move the zip rom to your SD card and just flash it from recovery. Make sure to format data before flashing.

Nice, thank you. So I have just flashed the thing with the sammobile.com ROM again (so, no root) and updated to the oroginal firmware Oreo following your link (I worked parallel).
I was just about to root Oreo and was googling for a way... But did I get you right? I should not reboot my phone for 170 hours now?!? So, no rooting until next week?!
Edit: I have developer options enabled and the "OEM unlock" switch is on (it says: "Bootloader is already unlocked.""). So... confusion...

Excuse me, are you currently on Nougat 7.0? If so, you obviously have OEM unlock option available. The problem is in the new 8.0 stock rom, wich sets RMM state to pre-normal preventing you to flash TWRP and to get root in OREO. To skip that you can directly flash a custom rom with 8.0.- Otherwise (stock rom) you must wait 7 days with no phone reboot to get ridd of that pre-normal issue and then flash TWRP and flash Magisk.
Just rooted the new Oreo ROM with TWRP. Works just fine, thank you.
So, what are the advantages of the Oreo ROM by alexega compared to XXU1CRAP?

Do you need a custom rom to not have the RMM lock anymore? A stock with BlackMesa's RMM START .zip is not right?

There's no need to have a custom rom, if you flash the fix in stock RMM lock gets killed everytime.

First you have to install OREO and wait 7 days without reseting your phone. After 170 hours, you get OEM unlock in developer options and you will be able to flasf TWRP. After flashing TWRP you flash RMM-State_Bypass_Mesa and that´s all.
