Hi guys, i decided to write here because im a little bit desperate now...
Yesterday i updated my mate 9 who was in MHA-L09C432B198 firmware (not oreo) via firmware finder. I've checked the oreo update MHA-L09C185B360(8.0.0.360) and was approved for install ans also with my IMEI. All seemed good but when the phone updated and restarted, it remained stuck on eRecovery.
After following some tutorials there on the forum to use the FF to install again a new approved firmware ive decided to go by the cash path and i tried Funky Huawei. It never worked neither .
When I've tried to install a new firmware the phone said that couldn't so i wasted 5 credits downloading and failing every time.
Please guys, did someone passed through this situation and solved it? My phone bootloader is locked and never installed a twrp...
Thanks in advance,

hi, dear xda forumers!
this is my very first post, and i am not very good at tech things, so please bear with me (plus I may unwantingly commit grammatical mistakes because i am not a native speaker and it is 2AM here)
first my back story:
I had a Huawei Mate 8 (nxt-l29c....something) European version, I had it for about 6 or 7 months, then it was stolen. By that time it had automatically upgraded to Nougat and I really liked it, got used to it, could not live without it.... so i decided to buy the same phone again. It came with Marshmallow, and I tried to update it but the OTA had been for a limited time only I guess, I emailed around with official huawei customer service asked them maybe to update my device from their headquarters or something, but they could not help me, they said I should just wait and eventually it would update.
after 3 months still nothing I grew impatient and I really wanted to have my "old experience" back, so I tried a tutorial with updating via filmware finder, using one of the first updates that were about 2GB big. It was successful, so it seemed at first, because there were no errors or interruptions, but finally when I turned it on, I noticed that during the update process my phone has lost the built in keyboard (still has the google), no more bluetooth, alarm clock, date time settings, update option
I downloaded the official rollback to Android 6 from 7 but since I updated with an unofficial update, it failed to fix my phone. now I still have the issues listed above.
Now I ended up with
Model number: NXT-L29C900B500 (originally it was NXT-L29C432B180)
EMUI version: 5.0
Android version: 7.0
Edit:
Now trying to use a new filmware from the official huawei website with the dload method
Edit 2:
it did not do anything. I will try again when I wake up
I kindly ask anyone who has any idea how to fix this to reply.
Mate 8 nougat update as far as I know have 2 update zips, I've experienced that problem when trying to update to nougat, I used twrp to flash the update.zip, I had emui 5 after but Bluetooth didn't work and some settings were missing, after searching I found that there are 2 zips to an update, a update.zip and a hwupdate.zip, basically only one was installed for you, you need to install both
Hey guys,
I had my Honor 8 in L19C636B380 update for a long time now.
Yesterday I tried to update with official app, I selected an option "full update", or something like that, since the app said there was no update available.
However, with that option in the menu, It found the B390 update and began the update, but the phone bricked in eRecovery mode.
I've tried the 390 update through dload method without luck. Tried full-MV of 380 without luck (recovery will stop at 5% and won't install the firmwares).
Now I'm trying the 360 full-MV-PV update (a downgrade), which seems to go past the 5% in recovery... It worked.
Considering that the european version is way ahead of the asian pacific, I'd like to know if you guys can point me to a way to rebrand to the european version, since this C636 version is stuck in 2017 (or at least my phone won't pick any OTA updated here in Brazil). I've seem some directions in the forum, but some have broken links and stuff, so I fear I may get stuck in the middle of a process...

You Could Try Updating With The Firmware Finder App Using DNS. Maks Sure Get The One That Is The Size Of GBs

I have a seemingly stupid but still annoying problem. As many of you know Android 8 + EMUI 8 came out this summer and I have updated my Honor8. Everything works well, even better (especially with regard to the battery) apart from a problem, quite annoying. I have seen that everyone around complains about the same problem, so it is clear that both a build bug and not a local problem.
Basically ... the bluetooth link with the multimedia system of my car doesn't work as it should, while it worked well with the 7.0.
Tracknames, music infos disappears, sometimes it connects regularly, starting the music, sometimes nothing happens, sometimes the music passes from the car speakers to smartphone (!!)... in short, manage the music in the car It has become a big problem!
I tried all possible options; reset pairing, reset bluetooth, clear cache, activate the developer options to control some low-level aspects of bluetooth, and finally installed Bluetooth Auto Connect which also has several advanced options. Nothing works. In the meantime an update of 8.0 has been released (mine is the buiold 521). The update came out in September ... maybe (MAYBE) this update fixes all bluetooth issues (but i don't have any detailed info about). Until today I have not received any updates and normally I check new version regularly every day. At this point I decided to return to Nougat!
And here the adventure begins!
I CANNOT IN ANY WAY do the downgrade.
What I tried:
- through HiSuite. The "back to previous version" option appears random (rarely); normally the program tells me "the system is up to date". Once appeared I tried to run the procedure, but after the decompression it gives me an error "error updating".
- by standard Rollback procedure. Using a microSD and putting the full version of Nougate in the dload folder. The installation starts but stops almost immediately with the same "update cannot be applied" error.
At this point I am desperate. I cannot update Oreo, I can't go back to Nougat and meanwhile the bluetooth still doesn't work with my car. Remember that before Oreo, everything worked very well!
What can I do? Can you help me?
Thank you

Region: EU
Model: FRD-L09
Build: 8.0.0.521 (C432)
Previous Build: don't remember. It was Nougat, and I've upgraded around the first week of September. From that day I haven't received/applied any patch, because nothing appears until now.
This morning I've tried again with HiSuite. As usual it says I'm running the latest version and it doesn't offer any downgrade option .

The more you know...
Finally I've decide to try updating to 8.0.0.562. After a month of tries, fails (damn Huawei and his stupid update system), errors and a lot of other stupid things, I was finally able to update my Honor hoping the latest version will fix all the problems. It was a enormous waste of time (searching around internet)... but in the end I found a method described here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p20-pro/help/p20-pro-bricked-t3868085#4And if you go ahead you should find the correct firmware link (on a Russian site). Although, IMHO, failing with the classic method was due to the impossibility or some bugs in the update system, to unpack the update files on sdcard. So the solution seems to be to leave both the zip and the unpacked folder.The problems with bluetooth remain, but I hope that now there is not to be crazy applying next updates. ATTENTION: the method above is NOT valid for rollback! If you try, you'll brick your Honor.
And finally I've taken an important decision... for me this is the last Huawei/honor device. Next time I'll go to another brand, with a serious update system.

Hello,
Please, i need help. I have problem with my honor 8.
Ill start from begining.
My original fw was frd-l02c432. (Im from eu, czech rep.) But since i wanted oreo update, ive done something wrong. Ive downloaded new update, and ended up with nrd90 test keys. After little play, ive manage to downgrade to frd-l02 c675. Just was unable to upgrade. ive download new sw via FF, install, and now im stuck again on test keys. I cant install twrp. Because, when i unlock bootloader, the oem option will grey out, and cant switch on. Cant install FF, because i have no keyboard. (Also update option is missing in settings) Erecovery is not working - cant find package. And when i download recovery package for c675b130 (or c432) and update via dload, it stuck in 5%- failed.
Is there some way to resurect him back to land of living ? or his only way to live is service center. I know, its almost sure, but i want to try fix it myself. And leave the service as a last resort.
Emui 5.0
Android 7.0
Thanks and have a nice rest of the weekend.
Andy.
EDIT: ok ive solved it (i think ) ive flashed twrp to boot instead of recovery. So phone did not start, but i was able to enter twrp. Then rebranded phone to frd L09 (my region with 432) via TWRP. Instal B380 via FF (with unlocked bootloader and twrp). then reflash TWRP back to normal recovery (because when the phone showed me new update, I was unable to install. ive downloaded the update, then hit install. Phone restarted to twrp and it showed me "error 7" when installing. So Ive uninstaled twrp. then download again. Phone restarted and update installed just fine). i just need to download the "latest package" via update from system everytime, so it will take time Maybe it will help someone. see ya
Hi,
I was able to finally get google on my phone about a year ago. I was able to update my phone once, manually, by downloading the firmware manually from the FF-app/website and connecting it to HiSuite.
For 8 months now, I havent been able to do this process anymore because FF-app/website shows me no working firmware. I think my phone is in risk because some of my passwords have been hacked and im almost sure its not my laptop. I am ready, if i have to, to do a factory reset. I was told when adding google services, that even after a reset, the google services will remain on my phone.. But then the issue is still not solved as my phone doesnt want to update by itself. It always says the firmware is the latest one which is impossible after 8 months or longer not updating it.
When using FF app, every single firmware i click, it tells me: Error, most likely the firmware was removed from the server.
When i try to download a firmware from the desktop it says: An error occured.
I feel like im stuck.. What should i do?
My huawei P40 PRO+
Model: ELS LGRP6 or ELS N39 (im not sure which one it is. the 2nd one is written on my phone but the first one is written on a paper from 1 year ago)
Build number: 10.1.0.175(C432E2R3P3)
Emui version: 10.1.0
Thank you a lot for anyone reading this and being able to help me!
You must use this site for firmware search. https://www.firmfinder.ml/
You receive updates, or not?
The issue is solved thanks to one of a senior member. Thank you so so much!
You are welcome!
The solution was that:
- downgrade using dload firmware
- install Google with googlefier
- OTA update to the last EMUI version ( he requested that)
