nop no solution yet still its not working i found a HWOTA method which isnt hard but problem is my bootloader is locked i can go to fastboot and erecovery but as bootloader is locked i cant progress in any of the steps i even have the unlock code also tryed the dc unlocker which is useless too as it only gives you unlock code and doesnt unlock you there was oeminfo method too but all methods need permission to write something through adb which i dont have but i wont give up

i have the exact problem have been searching here nd there but useless so far / i will keep u updated if i found a solutin

thanks mate i hope some developer might be able to find some solution

If you can enter fastboot you should be able to unlock bootloader. Just download HWOTA and necessary files and rename them properly. Put them on an SD card and let HWOTA prompt u for bootloader key.

yes i tryed the same directions but the problem is there is no oem unlock permission given from software so HWOTA cant write any file on the system

yes exactly fastboot is totally useless because there is no oem unlock permission
i think our only way out is dload update .... placing update.app on internal storage is the problem here
is there anyway to push file into internal through fastboot ? ?
i tried placing update.app on sd card but no use .. i think it must be on internal storage

its actual method is also to keep update.app in sd card so it wont work through internal storage also so still no hope i tryed the sd card method it doesnt work because recovery has been replaced and partitions are disturbed as well

i dont understand
why it want work through internal storage ?

because dload method is suppose to be done from external sd card and second thing is our recovery has been damaged which flashes the firmware right now try everything and see what works one guy has given method of changing dns etc

How much money did you pay for that?
Phone ? under warranty so I didn't pay anything
Also I didn't tell them I was upgrading to MM
Just I said the phone its keeping restarting…
Not to offend anyone, but the fault is not from Huawei. You guys keep trying to install updates that may not be meant for your phone. Can only blame yourself. If it's not at OTA update, just don't risk it!
Mine runs great on B130 kitkat with unlock and root.

I totally agree. But if there is any as*hole like me that wants to try a beta build, there should be a rollback alternative, right? Yeah, it's not very productive to blame the brand, but the brand should cover different scenarios in case people go full re__rd and install unverified software on their phones.

FRD-AL00 without OEM Unlock option?

Just got a FRD-AL00, whoever there is no OEM Unlock option in the developer menu. What does this means?
I'm still waiting for my Huawei codes since I don't have the phone registered to the Huawei ID in more than 14 days. So I don't know if the bootloader unlock will work without that option.
I also just got this phone and there is no 'oem unlock ' option in developer settings.. Anyone know what the deal is here?
I dont have the OEM Unlock option either. Same case.. I have the honor 8 frd-al00, but my chinese version is already updated to android 7 y emui 5.
All the honor 8 tutorials require that this option should be enable.
So.. what we can do? how we can solve this? I already receive my code for the unlock.
I want to root and debrand the frd-al00 to the international version al09, mentioned here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/help/debrand-frd-al00-to-frd-l09-update-to-t3552445
But without this option I cant do it.

Not very good idea...
Phone get unstable in short time with this rebrand made... After watch video or photos in short time applications stop to run...
It will not work good, i had this experience and after all had to go back to AL00...
And it was not only me, on 4pda.ru forum a lot of such cases, so better think twice...

I already have the code as I mention.. but not sure what are you saying.. this mean that even without enabling that option i can make the unlock? but not sure if something bad may happen if the OEM unlock option in disable, and like I said.. that option it does not appear in the development menu, I can find the debugging usb option, but not the other. Some al00 has this OEM unlock option, but not all, maybe depends on the update I get.. my phone auto update to emui 5.0 and android 7.

you did the same steps that the link guide I quote?
If rebrand is not an option.. then my other options are not good either, because I read that all mods had reboot issues and some other problems.. they dont have the camera apps either, just a basic picture app who does not take a good advantage of double lens system.
So.. what we can do if we have the al00? I just want to use voice search commands (not chinese commands).

Is any way to debrand without the emui 4.1, I have emui 5.0, my honor 8 is frd-al00, I cant find the rollback file for emui 4.. I find one for frd-al09 from 5 to 4.1, but that is the european version..
I have the bootloader code, but I can not activate the oem unlock option because it does not appear in my development tools, you told me that I have to go back to 4.1, but I have no idea how to do that.. or when I can find the file to do it..
Any advice.. ? What happen if I use the rollback file for the frd-al09?

u can use Hisuit to go back to EMUI 4.1.
Or may try go to fastboot, unlock bootloader in fastboot? Maybe it work. Shutdown Honor, hold volume down + connect ur device to PC via USB cable. Then u try to unlock, if not, the only way is EMUI 4.1.

I was able to rollback to 4.1 with hisuite, and I manage to unlock bootloader and install twrp.
I made a backup of all my files, then download the frd-al09432b131, (my phone is frd-al00 which also has 4gb - 32gb), I unzip the firmware and I place it in the ssd card under the folder dload. (not sure if only the update.app file should be in it, or also the other folders like meta-inf and oeminfo, I try with both).
Then from the twrp I did a format data and I wipe data once. Then I shutdown the phone.
press volume up +down+ power until the update starts to run..
But..
At 5%, a alert come up saying:
------------------
Software install failed!
Incompatibility with current version.
Please download the correct update package.
(reboot system now)
------------------
But well, I dint reach so far to resign now.. I am downloading a new firmware from the honor site:
Honor 8 Firmware(FRD-L09, Android 6.0, EMUI 4.1, C432B131, United Kingdom)
I hope this work... or I may be doing something wrong?
Edit: still happen with the new firmware that I download, not sure what to do.. I need supersu for this?

eRecovery broken?

Hi Guys
Maybe one of you can help me. I unlocked the bootloader flashed twrp and my phone get in trouble with self reboots every 10 minutes. So i flashed the Stock Recovery back and relock the bootloader. Now i can't make a factory reset in recovery. Every time when i boot in recovery i land in eRecovery and get screen on the picture, when i try the first option for download latest version and recovery it doesn't. The phone connect to my WIFI but thats all. The error is Getting package info failded! So what can i do to solve this :fingers-crossed::good:
eRecovery works for China firmware only, MHA-AL00

I flashed the C432B186 with HWOTA methode. First i Unlock the bootloader in adb, let low factory reset running, after the reboot i boot in bootloader again and start the HWOTA tool and let install the TWRP, then i unplugged my phone and boot in TWRP and choose "Swipe for Modification" (that is nowhere mentioned, because when you choose "Keep read Only" it will failed, at least on my phone, don't know whether it fail on every phone), then i plugged the phone in again and did the steps that HWOTA tool shows me and it works perfect. After the first boot up i boot in Recovery with adb command and the option for factoy reset in eRecovery is back :good:

I just was able to use eRecovery to go back to stock (and upgrade from B180 to B190 on USA model MHA-L29C567).... so it did work for me.
I had the same problem. Actually it can be solved quite easily. reboot the system with a United States SIM card insert, then shutdown the system, enter eRecovery again, now everything works as perfect as before. I think Huawei judge your location by the SIM card you use.

As far as i know you need a unlock code, but Huawei didn't give any code since 1 or 2 month. On the other hand i sold my Mate 9 a couple of days after the Problem was solved :good:

Honor 8 hard brick

Hello.
As many here my phone updated and soft-bricked. I tried to recover it but i guess i did it with wrong method and I hard-bricked it. Than by using dc unlocker phoenix and .app files provided by the online shop where i bought the phone i recovered it back to soft-brick, but now with the red warning message "your device has failed verification and may not work properly". Since than nothing else works - not Dload method (every update either fails or hard-bricks the phone) nor forcing updates through the dc unlocker. While it is hard bricked it does show up in fastboot device list, but that is all. Any ideas what else could I do? Please don't suggest dload method as I have stated above that it is not working.
Use rollback package to Emui 4.1
What do you mean by that? Flash it through fastboot or through the sd card?

thanks for your reply. The problem is that this method so far has not worked. I suspect it has to do with the fact that it is a FRD-AL00 model to which the seller has flashed FRD-L19. In the end this means that neither of rollback packages work. Plus replying to the last comment also - so far I am stuck as I do not have access to dc unlocker phoenix anymore and I am not willing to spend yet another 15 eur without clear plan what to do next. Any ideas how to bring the phone out of the hard brick aside from dc unlocker?

Hi. To be honest I gave up and took it to service centre and they fixed it. Never told me how though.
I did send them the firmware that was provided for me by the manufacturer so I guess the answer lays somewhere in correctly flashing the correct firmware using some software that I do not have. Or something.
I am sorry that I cannot add anything more substantial to the discussion - I can post some information about what is on the phone now if that helps.

I have Honor 8 FRD-AL10 came with FRD-L19C636B360 from China.
After a notification for new update which I started, the phone bricked. Tried eRecovery, but unsuccessful. Couldn't receive the package from the server.
The only thing that worked out a bit was "dload" method with AL00 version from the link with fabric firmware http mega.nz........
But the phone starts to the language and region section and never runs correctly to the desktop. Always rotates about first "start screen".
No other software works out, tried almost everything.

I have not unlocked bootloader. I tried DC Phoenix but when I flashed firmware it said "your device has failed verification and may not work properly". Had others things to do at the time and tool expired and I want to know what to do before buying it again.
Solution:
Bought credits on FunkyHuawei and contacted support. The problem was that my phone model was FRD which doesnt exist. It should be FRD-L19, FRD-AL10 etc. Tools which are available for download on FunkyHuawei didnt work because this wasnt a common problem. But their support is excellent. They will help you till you get your phone working without asking for extra money.

honor 8 bricked bootloop

Hi, I have a honor 8 that bootloops I can only access to fastboot not in bootloader or recovery. Bootloader is locked, i can't flash anything and i can't unlock it because I don't have the Product ID. The dload and three fingers method doesn't work. What can I try to unbrick it? I can't even turn it off.

Which number of firmware you tried via dload??
Which firmware number you were on before issue??
When you say that the dload method doesn't work, what do you get when you try it ? You have to flash the proper firmware for your phone, otherwise it will deny it, you can maybe use a rollback package.
Try the Huawei tool ... U can fix it easily and you can play around don't panic it's the first thing ...

Maybe you are doing it wrong. As long as you have a stock boot.img and a stock recovery you should be able to use this method.

If you mean Hisuite I already tried it. my PC detects the phone and hisuite launches by itself but then doesn't detect any phones. when I try the rescue tool "resuce mode enter..." appears on the screen but then hisuite says that the phone isn't compatible with the rescue mode.

I think he doesn't mean hisuite but Huawei multi-tool, which is available on xda forums and enable to recover from a brick

Alright I think this is a good point , now that you can use the dload method you need to know under which EMUI version you were because the phone won't accept a firmware that is lower or to high compared to your actual EMUI version.
What I did when I was in your case is flashing a rollback package downloaded from honor official site and then flash an old EMUI which is under Android 6.x.
After a few tries you can make it, I hope I've been clear, English isn't my native language

Thanks a lot for your help but I don't really know how but while I was trying to go back to the erecovery menu the phone just boot up and it worked. I did a factory reset because the phone was a bit laggy and now it works.
Lol everything's alright then

Ok here i go ... Open the Huawei tool ... And follow steps to install TWRP ...turn of the phone , once it's off hold the volume button down then connect the phone to the PC that would take to some type of fastboot ! Flash recovery the 2 option .... Reboot into TWRP .. from the Huawei tool u would see and option of stock i think there u can copy the recovery OEM info system and boot option flash them all one by one .... Reboot the phone ... And you would be redirected to recovery from WiFi and now it would work since u flash the OEM info now the phone knows what to look for u won't get the getting info failed ... And that's it just makes sure u have a good stable WiFi connection ...
And like a said the more calm and relax u do these the better the first time I screw the phone I almost get a heart atack :crying: it's easy
Unable to get Product ID - Honor 8

My Honor 8 broke after it downloaded and installed the very first update. Since the failed 'update' I am NOT able to access Android at all. The phone was stuck on the Huawei eRecovery screen which fails to connect via wi-fi and is unable to connect or retrieve any information from the server to update and repair the phone. I was able to use a 'roll-back' package and install the stock firmware (FRD-AL10), but since I have done the roll-back and restored the stock firmware the phone boots to the first screen where you select your 'Region', then the 'Language', WiFi connection, Agree to the Terms & Conditions, then skip the following steps for Cloud and something else - after all this it goes back to the 'REGION' selection screen, then again the Language selection screen and so on - it just loops and never boots into Android.
Thus I am unable to get the Product ID, the unlock code, etc.
The phone is still locked and UNrooted as all the other solutions rely on the phone being UNlocked and Rooted - but since I DON'T have access to Android I cannot do anything with the phone.
Can someone help me to retrieve the Product ID from an essentially 'DEAD' Honor 8 phone??

I have followed this 'dload' process to load the stock 'FRD-AL10 - ...C00B135' onto my Honor 8, it completes successfully then the phone reboots to where I have to select the Region, then Language, then WiFi, then agree to the Agreement, etc.. then the phone 'loops' back to the Region, Language, WiFi, selection and everything from start.
Is there a way to get past this 'loop' to the point where the phone actually boots into Android?? I cannot access the Product ID, unlock or root the phone.
Any help will be appreciated, thanks.
