Honor 8 issue - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

Hello i really don't know where to look for help anymore so i'm going to try these forums.
Soo today all the sudden my Honor 8 shutdown and now it keeps trying to reboot and fails over and over.
I can't even shut it down or enter the reset menu via volumebuttons/powerbutton neither works.
I haven't messed around with rooting or anything like that so i don't know why it is doing this it was working just fine earlier and then this happened.
What should i do and if you need any more information ill be gladly help.

Did this happen during an OTA update? Were you using the phone when it happened?

If it is software after a couple of more it should boot into eRecovery. If it happened in the morning then it something must have gone wrong during an automatic software update.

It wont boot into any recovery menu or anything.
It tries to boot up shows the light blue screen huawei logo&/powered by android screen. After that it goes black and vibrates once, then starts over again and keeps doing this over and over.
I managed to finally shut it off by letting the battery run empty but as soon as i try to charge the battery it starts the boot attempt loop again even if i dont even press anything and keeps doing it.
If i hold volume+ & power button it does the same thing as mentioned above except after screen goes black it vibrates twice and then keeps doing the same loop again.
I dont know really what to do anymore, you have any suggestions on what i should do? Looked through whole internet yesterday and nothing seems to work ;_;

can you tell what is LTE cat6?

I may be doing something wrong too but i highly doubt that since i've tried so many times already but well... i'll head to sleep now i'll check this thread when i wake up and hopefully by then i've got a solution that works.
But thanks for your answers anyway hopefully we manage to fix this! I have my old phone as a backup phone still so no big deal i'd just like to use my Honor 8 specially since i bought it 2 days ago soo guess if nothing else works im just gonna have to return it and get a new one with warranty if i can i don't know hopefully i dont have to go that far.

You could maybe try the rollback package and use the Volume up+down+power button combination to install the Marshmallow firmware. Then update back to Nougat.

Alright with your phone plugged in use the command:
Fastboot erase userdata
This should wipe the phone clean and allow the phone to boot normally.

I guess we can't really do anything now. Visit the place you purchased the phone and ask for a replacement since most probably this is a defective unit, especially since it is new.

Not hardware. Just software. On 4.1, I had this problem too
Flash the Spain ones. They look much better than the other countries from my observations in it's stability
And. Don't say that. You'll recover soon

You're best bet is to Odin back to stock, see if that resolves the touch issue.

[Q] Just received 4.4.3 OTA - Android version still shows 4.4.2?

Hello,
I'm completely stock, no root or anything on my Nexus 5.
I just received the 4.4.3 update (T-Mobile) and downloaded/installed. It asked for a restart, I said ok, and then it restarted.
Afterwards I checked the Android version under About Phone and it still shows as 4.4.2.
Any ideas? When I check for updates, it says I have the latest version.
Thanks!

Problem with FRD-L14! *App not responding*

I'm having an issue with my FRD-L14!
I encountered a problem a couple weeks ago when my phone died of low battery. Once I charged it and turned it back on, all of a suddenly all of my apps were unresponsive. And when I say all of the apps, I mean ALL of the apps. I began receiving notifications of the apps that weren't responding and it was asking me to wait or close app. I tried both and had no outcome. I restarted the phone a few times thinking maybe it was a bad boot.. Nothing. Finally, I did a factory reset and everything began working fine.. Until I decided to turn my phone off again (This was the last time my phone had been turned completely off since the factory reset) and the issue arose again. All of my apps are not responsive. Sometimes I cannot even get into settings. I also do not receive any calls/texts during this time either.
I am NOT rooted and I do not have an unlocked bootloader. Completely stock.
Please Help!
Sounds weird...maybe you can try reflashing the firmware? What version are you using? Nougat or Marahmallow?

Nougat.. Everything I have is stock and updated to the latest firmware.
Okay, in that case i would have made a rollback to marshmallow first, then flashing the full marshmallow firmware (latest avaible on honor site) and finally update again to nougat with OTA.
I think it's the best thing you can do

UPDATE!
After a rollback and OTA update back to Nougat using Proxy Firmware Finder, everything is working fine.
The only thing I've noticed is that my build number is "NRD90M test-keys". I'm not sure if this will affect any future OTA updates or not. It was very difficult to find a full update package for the FRD-L14 version. The model number still reflects FRD-L14 though.
Side note: I think the entire cause of the problem was I did the trick from the link below. It worked and I had been using it for a long time. In the comments of that thread, I've noticed others having the issue after reboot as well... Must be a Huawei thing.
