Did you tried from system update (OTA)?

OTA updates were never available, since I bought it.
I fear that C432 is not the original model, as C432 is for Europe and I bought it as an international model, from Ondamobile - HK.
Perhaps it was C636 or C185 and during one past upgrade C432 was installed...I am not sure.
The device is also rooted, and it is stable. Rebranding failled because bootloader is Unlocked. I think I am stuck permanently with this B581 rom

Chinese H6+ PE-TL 10 -> international Rom

im using international rom, and flashing chinese rom...
so i think its possible for you too...
as long as you made your backup using twrp or cwm youll be fine....please made a backup first
method used
flash directly from local update
if fail, you must root your phone before you can flash
flash boot.img, recovery.img, system.img , cust.img using fastboot
you should be ok after flashing this
if bricked or cannot boot, reinstall your cwm or twrp, and install your backup
I have the same situation. I made some trials and here are the results;
I was on Chinese version B250. I udated manually to Chinese version B260 and this was successful.
I unlocked my bootloader successfully.
All trials to flash the International version B324 with Lollipop and (EMUI 3.1) have failed. I even tried with a relocked bootloader but still the same. No root or custom recovery; all stock.
Of note that I could successfully flash the International version B142 which is a Kitkat and (EMUI 3.0) but could never update to the succeeding update OTA although it is being downloaded successfully by the Huawei updater.
All flashing was through virusplus Multi-tool
These are my observations. If anyone has a better input regarding fully flashing a Chinese PE-TL10 with an International firmware with working OTA updates later on then please share it.
Thank you

Reisntalling B385 stock rom to my FRD-L04

Hi guys,
I am currently trying to figure out how to reinstall a clean version of the B385 for my FRD-L04. I have downloaded these two files from the Nougat Update for FRD-L04 Honor 8 (USA):
Full ROM – http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1585/g104/v83098/f1/full/update.zip
Data File – http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/...FRD-L04_hw_usa/update_full_FRD-L04_hw_usa.zip
I have tried to flash them both from TWRP, but I always get the error: Updater process ended error 7
Can anyone please guide me through the process and let me know what I'm doing wrong?
I have look for a guide or post where this is detailed, but without luck. Can anyone link me to a guide on how to reinstall the stock firmware in my Honor 8 FRD-L04?
Thanks! :good:
The best way (if you don't want to unlock bootloader) is to flash a downgrade package first, then dload the Marshmallow update and finally your preferred Nougat update though Firmware Finder.

Thanks for the response. In my case, my phone is rooted, so I don't mind unlocking the bootloader. Would you please elaborate on how to do it that way?

Unlock your bootloader and follow this guide:https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/guide-flashing-unapproved-firmwares-t3668306/
Choose the B385 firmware or any newer firmware available for your region.
So I decided to finally reinstall the stock firmware in my Honor 8 FRD-L04 in B389, and this is where the nightmare began.
- I made a full backup with TWRP just in case and I decided I wanted to start from the earliest firmware possible available.
- I started unrooting my phone using the UnSU zip by Osmosis.
- Then I flash via bootloader the recovery and boot image of the firmware B360.
- I flashed the rollback package from the Huawei official site with the B122 firmware also available at the same place. I saved the rollback package in my root directory in the dload folder, and loaded it with the 3-button method. After this I wasn't able to boot my phone normally, I was stuck in a boot loop. I still continue with the next firmware, the B122, and it was successfully loaded (this also relocked my bootloader).
- It is important to say I clear many times the cache and wipe/erase data through stock recovery options, and also tried to erecover but I wans't able to connect to the WiFi. I guess something was missing (at this point I was already going crazy).
- I was still stucked at a boot loop after loading the B122, so I decided to unlock my bootloader and flash the twrp 3.1.1-1-frd.img
- From there I tried to wipe data and cache and system and everything, but I wasn't able because an error saying unable to mount always appeared.
- After rebooting, since I already had unlocked the bootloader, the initial message prompting: "press power to continue, press for 3 seconds for erecovery, etc..." appeared.
- I enter the erecovery options with the hope it will do something... and it did!!! I could connect this time through WiFi and the system asked to update the firmware and many other things it said at that moment. This was the first time I felt relieved through the night.
- The phone updated perfectly, it started at the firmware B122 and I kept updating it until I reached the B389.
- I unlocked the bootloader again and rooted the phone. And everything is running smooth as silk!
I know this is a very long story, but I just want to get it out there in case anyone is facing the same problem I just passed. Hope this helps someone and brings peace to them! =) Good luck!
I believe B385 is not functional with TWRP. Flash B360 and reboot to recovery. This should go to stock recovery, where you will have to do a factory reset. I got EMUI working, but it refuses to update to any newer version (it does show B380 but doesn't update). Also there should be updates after making that update. The updates did work for other people, so you may be able to have it working.

what model is it?

My Mate 8 was bought from Wondamobile, in HK.
It is the International version (4gb/64gb)
This is the informations I got on their invoice:
HUAWEI ASCEND MATE 8 INTERNATIONAL VERSION 32/64GB DUAL LTE MOBILE PHONE (NXT-L29) UNLOCKED AND SIM FREE
SKU: HAWINXTL29064BRZ
Know it has installed the rom NXT-L29 C432B581
However I suspect that is accepted C432 ROM after som flashing and reflashing. It is rooted and has bootloader unlocked but I never rebranded it properly.
Original model should be C636 or C185? What do you think?
Thanks for any help
hi
I think it's a C636 region because it comes from Hongkong

[NXT-L29C636B103]Updated to NRD90M test-keys and don't know how to get back

Hello,
I recently found FirmwareFinder and tried it out. I found a Nougat Rom for my System NXT-L29C636B103 and installed it. I read the changelog before but it wasn't marked as beta.
Also it wasn't named NRD90M in FF.
I know tried to get back with dload and HiSuit and FF (Because the rom doenst have a update program...) but it wont work.
I don't have a Unlocked Bootloader or Root, atleast i don't know how to unlock it. But I would love to get Root with Magisk or something^^
EDIT: It seems that my bootloader is unlocked. I checked with fastbooot oem get-bootinfo and get "(bootloader) unlocked" as result.
Didnt knew because i bought the phone from a friend
I hope someone can help me..
Greetings

Hi.
Firstly, you should get the Huawei id details from your friend and the bootloader code.
Secondly, flash TWRP recovery and flash original Huawei rom.
Hey,
I have a working unlock Code now.
I used the huawei official Rollback FW C900B500 and flashed it. After this I flashed C432B192 to get OTA Updates in Germany. But now I'm in C900B192 and can't get OTA updates. I Tried to get B582 with FF but get an Error at Installation because of incompatibality with my System.
Amy ideas what i can do next? :/

Rebrand from BKL-L09 (C432) to BKL-L09 (C636)

Hi,
Can someone help me rebrand from BKL-L09 (C432) to BKL-L09 (C636)?
I have 2 Honor view 10 phones (originally BKL-AL20) that are rebranded by the shop were I bought them to BKL-L09. Unfortunetly they are stuck on an old version!
Current SW:
BKL-L09 8.0.0.110(C432)
But since they are not getting updates I was planning on flashing complete OTA update but I think rather flash C636. Or is some other region more recommended?
Can someone please provide me with steps and files to flash C363?
I also have a Mate 8 were I recently rebranded from C432 to DL00 and I only needed to flash the DL00 oeminfo and then went to erecovery and downloaded/installed latest firmware from there without any other steps. Would this work for the Honor view 10 if i get the C636 oeminfo for it?
Best Regards,
Leo
Yes the rebrand is same on view 10, flashing oeminfo file and flash regarding ROM.
But there's a major problem here: there is no more free way to unlock the bootloader.
Even if your device is unlocked, if you rebrand it, most prolly you will lost the unlock status and your unlock code wont work.
Means you need to pay third party unlock service (again).
I'm on right opposite from you, having C636 (im on EMUI9 with stock recovery so i cant provide you a oeminfo file), thinking of rebranding to C432.
Why would you like to move to C636 (Asia Other, means SEA and some)? C432 (Europe Unlock) is quite nice region I think?
Europe is the most huawei selling region except china mainland, receiving most updates as i know.
If you are living in asia you can try India region, which is also quite update-receiving region i think.

Well the reason I want to do anything at all is because the phones are not receiving any updates. Both phones are stuck at 8.0.0.110.
You might be right, my earlier experience was that Europe did not get that much love as China/Asia. But I maybe should try to get phones updated. Problem is I have tried and nothing works. I tried built in update, HiSuite, HiCare and dload method.
I really y don't know why it fails, probably something went wrong when the phones were rebranded by the shop.

Did you try the No-check recovery? Mine was fishy too (rebranded by the shop, no OTA came),
so i did clean 'ROM' flash with No-check recovery and clean 'ROM+all other things' flash with HiSuite.

Now I'm thinking of flashing stock recovery via fastboot (in case something is wrong with it) and then try flash stock rom rom via fastboot.
I found the following for recovery https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-view-10/how-to/stock-recovery-getting-to-stock-t3754797
The question is what need to be done to flash stock rom?
I guess downloading stock from FF, what files are need for fastboot flash this device?

download stock ROM from FF, extract SYSTEM.img, via fastboot: fastboot flash system SYSTEM.img.
straight and simple. in fact you can flash most of .img by this, kind of manual HiSuite.
you did dload method (using stock recovery to flash stock ROM) and failed,
which might means your IMEI is not matching with your region properly (the shop rebranded it wrong),
so i recommended No-check Recovery, which is Modded stock recovery that does not check IMEI while dload process.
