So,
Here is the way,
Note-Do it at your own risk!! I'll not be responsible for anything!!
It is not actually rooting your device...:silly:
I'll just tell you the method...
Rest you have to figure it out how to do it because I'm not an owner of Honor 8!!! , Currently my device is Lenovo A6000 Plus
Requirements:
1. PC
2. ADB Files
3. Custom Recovery ( I recommend - TWRP above 3.0 because I've done it same way on my device)
4. Unlocked Bootloader / Fastboot (You should have it)
5. One working Data Cable
6. Minimum Knowledge of editing Build Prop
7. The flashable zip in the attachment below...
8. You with your Phone!!!....
Now Let's Start... (But 1st Try to understand carefully)
1. Download the Flashable zip & put it in your PC
2. Boot your phone into Fastboot/Bootloader ( In whatever process you want - i) Manually or ii) adb reboot bootloader)
3. Now try this cmd - fastboot boot (name of the recovery).img [But before this step you must put your recovery into the adb folder]
After this wait for few seconds... you must be booted into your recovery...
4. Go to Advance > File Manager > Navigate to system > Select build.prop > copy it to where ever storage you want (I prefer internal)
5. Hope you have mtp enable in the recovery mod, if not then reboot the phone into the normal mode then send the extracted file to your pc ( You can also use es file manager/explorer but I will tell the pc method because it is more perfect)
6. Open the build.prop with notepad ++ and try this method which is given by The Hard Gamer in his "[ROM][32bit][port]OCTOS 6.0.1 for lenovo a6000/+" post
EVERYTHINGS WORKING FINE
TO DISABLE NAVBAR EDIT YOUR BUILD.PROP......
-First obviously you need be a Root user
-Backup your build.prop to your PC or anywhere (but backup it!)
-Edit build.prop with a Root Explorer using this line:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=1
you have to add this at the END of the .prop, save and reboot.
[FOR Marshmallow/Android 6.0]
If you're on Marshmallow (Android 6.0) the process is exactly the same, add the line at the end of the build.prop EXCEPT that you must leave 2 spaces after you added the line.
7. Put replace the build.prop file with the new edited build.prop in the flashable zip.... and put it into your root directory of internal/external storage.
8. Now repeat step 2-3.
9. Mount System, if it is already mounted then unmount it then remount it.
10. Go to install > navigate to the flashable zip > Then flash it.
11. Reboot system & Enjoy (If you Can) :angel:
Another Note :-I was here to participate in Honor 8 wining contest so, I can not exactly tell you the right process because you know (I don't own one of the amazing device)... So, If this method works then please hit like :good: & reply me with your experience... Atleast I can deserve this much..
& One important thing...
Sorry For My BAd English!!

Thanks. I was also looking for solution of this issue and your solution helped me a lot

I was looking for a method which does not involve custom recovery and unlocked bootloader, should've probably mentioned that. If I go the TWRP way then may as well root it, but then I'd lose OTA.
Don't feel comfortable doing that just yet.

I can understand what you want to say!!
But listen,
You can do the whole process without boot the phone in normal mode...
Just unlock the bootloader before the process and relock it after it...
It's that simple..
And It will automatically do a factory reset after unlocking..
My Previous phone was MMX CAnvas A1
I have done many experiments on it like these...
But At the end I still got the OTA updates... Even my SuperSu (By systemless flashable zip) is installed
And you must take some risk in your life to get better results!!
Hope you understand!!!
And press thank button if it helped!!

Amazing!! works for Pie as well!

Tried it with the File Explorer i have and my device is rooted so no need for Recovery, so i just modified the .xml and yeah i got the Dark Mode but if I exit and then reopen the app it defaults back to normal theme.
But the option remains in the settings.

It is better to delete the old file.
U can keep the both the files but make sure the modified file name is same as old [ It should not be like filename(1).xml]. rename the old file to something else.

I tired this working fine , but after after sometime the theme gets back to white , please get me a solution to this

Is dark mode on in system settings?

[MOD] How to enable navigation bar on J7 2017

Requirements:
. Root
. Android Pie
. File Explorer
. TWRP
WARNING: Neither me nor XDA is responsible for any issues that may happen on your device.
It is recommended to backup your rom
1. Go to the root tab of the file explorer and go to the vendor folder.
2. Inside the vendor> overlay> delete the following file: "framework-res__auto_generated_rro" (your device will reboot automatically, don't worry)
3. After the device turns on make sure the file is actually deleted. In that case, download the Navbar.zip file now, enter recovery mode and flash the file to TWRP and then turn on your device.
4. When you turn on your device, you may already notice the change, but if the navigation bar does not appear, go to settings> screen> navigation bar (you can use gestures if you wish)
ps: If you didn't like the change, you can go back to what you used to be with NavbarUninstaller.zip
Navbar Enable
