you would have had to make a backup of your original rom. you can always try un-rooting then do an ota update then root again. Just giving some suggestions

Mate 7 B560 to B571 Update Error

I got the B571 Update but if I try to update after downloaded it, it says "Install Failed"

I fear you must be stock style, as to say no root and stock recovery (as you have). This means (I fear) you must do a factory reset or delete the root privileges.

Phone only boots to eRecovery and Rescue mode with errors

Hi,
I have decided to open a thread to explain better my situation and make things more clear.
I first have unlocked bootloader and rooted my phone using this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/guide-unlock-bootloader-tested-root-t3443946
After that I have decided to go back to locked and unrooted because I needed to upgrade from v6.0 EMUI4.1 to 7.0 EMUI 5 and I have:
downloaded "FullOTA-MF-PV" version "FRD-L09C432B381" from "FF" (but I think it was the wrong version for me) and put to my internal storage
downloaded and used "unSU" to unroot: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63615067
flashed "boot.img" and "recovery.img" that I have extracted with "HuaweiUpdateExtractor" from TWRP
now the phone always boot to eRecovery and there is nothing I can do.
I can't enter recovery.
When I shut it down the phone and connect it to cable to charge it, it boots to "Rescue" with the following text: "Error! Func NO : 10 (boot.img) Error NO : 2 (load failed)" (I think this is bad) and after some time it boots to eRecovery again.
I tried to press "VOL+ / VOL- / POWER" while connected to PC and it enters "Fastboot&Rescue" but my PC does not recognize it well, indeed when I run "adb devices" from CMD it does not show my phone, the list is empty.
Now I have got a SDCARD and I have downloaded "rollback package" from Huawei Honor site and "B131 firmware" and first put only rollback "dload" folder to my card. I have inserted the card to phone, shut it down and pressed "VOL+ / VOL- / POWER" but it is stuck at Honor start blue screen and nothing happens.
(my SDCARD is FAT formatted, is it ok or do I need to change it?)
Please, please I really need help with this. The phone is new and I don't want to loose it.
Thanks a lot.

Sorry guys, fortunately I have solved.
The problem was with rollback version, I have deleted it from sdcard and put the other "B131 firmware" "dload" folder and the forced update worked.
Now I'm back to 6.0 and EMUI 4.1 with firmware B131.
Now the important thing is to update to 7.0 and EMUI 5.0 (don't want to make the same mistake I made before).
After that I'm not sure whether I still want to unlock bootloader and root, but if I decide to do that what guide do I have to follow when coming from 7.0 EMUI 5.0?
What do you think about following these steps:
download TWRP from https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/development/twrp-t3566563, enter fastboot and run
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1-0-frd.img
enter recovery and flash Magisk v12 (https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445)
will it be enough or do I have to unlock run
Code:
fastboot oem unlock [insertnumberhere]
again with same number I used before to register to huawei site?

Rommco05 said:
Yes u must first unlock bootloader, yes same number
edit: for guide, xda have really good search system

Click to collapse
Ok, I have done oem unlock againt and installed TWRP.
After that I have flashed Magisk v12 and now it boots only to eRecovery so it did not work with Magisk.
I made a TWRP backup for v7.0 and now I have restored it so it working againt but I need root.
Could I maybe try with old SuperSU "v2.76-20160630161323.zip" method as explained here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/guide-unlock-bootloader-tested-root-t3443946?
Or do you think it is better to try with newest SuperSU version?
It is weird the Magisk did not work.
Thanks

Supersu 2.79 dint gave bootloop for me on emui 5 . I hope it works for u too

Rommco05 said:
hm, I using Supersu 2.79 from https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/development/twrp-t3566563 without any problem, so I can recommend to use Supersu. Just small think, Google play want to update this Supersu (update is unsucessful) but I just disabled notification from for Supersu and all my stuff works

great it works thank you very much.
Just one thing: I want to restore all apps from a Titanium Backup folder. I have just copied it to H8 and selected that folder from TB 8.0.1 but it just hangs at 0%. I also tried to install it as a system app but no luck.
Do you know anything about that?
Now I'm trying to make a update.zip backup file with all apps and data from my old phone and I will try to restore in H8. Hope it works.
Thanks

Using titanium backup will result in bootloop
And from an old phone it never works. Dont go for it.

wow I did not know that.
When I switched from my old Samsung Galaxy to HTC One I use it without problem, just copied the folder with all apps and data from one phone to other and restored backups.
Why does it not work in this case with H8?

Its better u install .
I used to build various roms , i take a nandroid backup first . Test each rom one after the other and then restore the backup.
Sometimes if i find a rom much stable than the one i used before , i will stick to it and reinstall all the apps . Happens once in two days for me .
Kindly dont go with titanium backup as it access encrypted data partition which will result in bootloop

TWRP Compatibility

If I update my TWRP recovery, will it be backwards compatible to backups taken with previous version of TWRP?

I have restored old backups from newer TWRP versions without any problem. But probably there is any need to make a new thread for this simple question.

[ROM] Elephone U pro treble ROM 8.1 RRmod resurrection remix / safetynet gpay working

Elephone U pro to treble resurrection remix laptapper mod android 8.1
Bluetooth and safetynet working!
All runs smoothly and everything what I´ve tested has worked.
If you find bugs, share them here and may be we can develop all together.
I´m not responsible for your phone, all what you do is on your own risk
Backup your data
if you´ve got booting problems after all then flash eragon10.3 via qfil
GAPPS included!
Best configuration menu ever, have a look to the attached picture
flashing guide:
Recommended is to make a full wipe of system, data, dalvik and via twrp factory wipe.
Flash via adb.
1. Copy img file in folder adb.
2. start bootloader
3. run in windows cmd with
fastboot flash boot V10_TWRP.img (if you didn´t have twrp)
fastboot flash system rrmodsystem.img
ignore messages, give time and you´ll see the progress, after finished wait some seconds and then follow next steps.
4. restart to recovery
5. flash magisk 17.1 zip via TWRP after flashing twrp and system
6. wipe dalvik and cache manually with TWRP file manager in folder dat\cache and dalvik
7. reboot system
8. If you want then you can flash extrasflashtwrp via twrp. Try and be happy
9. enjoy
Safetynet:
To get magisk safetynet working you have to install magsk module MagiskHide Props Config and set in magisk configuration magisk hide, reboot and then
Run a terminal app and type:
1) su
2) props
3) Set the fingerprint with the following keys (pressing enter after each):
1 -> f -> 16 -> 8 -> y -> y
take xiaomi Mi A1 (it´s working for my u pro so it should be also ok for you.
MTP:
MTP works, but you have to go to developer settings usb and switch from mtp to ptp and back. May be sometimes you have to switch 2 or 3 times.
files:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1JcJDP1d7gE_plJzEQLgxZzHJxK4Zn3m0?usp=sharing
I´m new at development and so I didn´t know all......May be someone can help how to update the google security patches?
May someone knows how to update the RR files in the future easily.......
May be there is a permanent possibility for phone security fingerprint and not over magisk module.....
Let´s develop together!
Big thanks to:
@skeleton1911
xda search function
RR team
baltiapps
all xda developers
Easy install
Prerequisits: bootloader unlocked, rooted, TWRP installed. Of course it is only for u pro!
This procedure should be work on every u pro:
1. start twrp and make a full backup to sd card
2. check your sd card, you must have a folder twrp with subfolder backups and ssubfolder with your phone modell like A208DD.....
3. download the rr_mod... zip and extract it to your modell sub folder (it should be only one path with the backup files)
4. start twrp and click wipe, factory reset, and again to wipe but advanced wipe check box dalvik, system,data, internal storage. After this click restore in the main twrp menu, choose sd card and you´ll see the rrmod backup. choose system, vendor and boot to restore.
5. After restore reboot recovery again and install magisk 17.1
6. at least go to advanced in twrp main menu and then file manager, goto data and delete cache folder and dalvik-cache folder completely.
7. Reboot system and enjoy
8. if all is working go to twrp again and if you want, install the rr_mod_extras and enjoy.:laugh:

If you wanna have safetynet working follow the steps above for safetynet.

If the problem is really only GPay and Magisk ctsprofile, I'll try it, because I always appreciated RR also on my old Jiayu S3!
Only one request: a guide step by step of installation procedure, because often adb commands on my upro not working.
Thanks

Someone over on XDA also mentioned that this issue is to do with device encryption and that erasing and formatting the data partition would help (this will wipe all your data). This doesn't quite seem to link up but you never know...
On which ROM you are before, unlocked bootloader?
The developer options with usb debugging are on?
You've started the phone in bootloader?
Clean install with factory reset, wiped system wiped cache wiped data wiped internal memory?
The rrmodsystem.img is saved in adb folder, and you've started the cmd in adb folder?
You can try also to rename the rrmodsystem.img to system and fastboot flash system system.img,also it should be possible to flash eragon 10.3 via qfil and before iverwrite the eragon system.img with the system. Img of rrmod.
Before you've asked how to get magisk after flashing twrp and rrmod, so it sounds like that you've flashed rrmod before otherwise you had the possibility to download the magisk with the phone?
After the error appears you have waited some minutes or you disconnect the phone? Try to wait at least some minutes.
