Honor 8 frd-l02 test keys - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

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

Stuck with bootloader/eRecovery

Some context:
My MHA-L29C432B138 with TWRP got an OTA update on the phone itself, and I wanted to update (it wanted me to update to B182).
Since I had TWRP replacing the stock recovery I could not flash it through the normal way, so I went ahead to replace TWRP with the stock recovery so I could update.
I was unable to flash the stock recovery since I had no access to flashing in fastboot (FRP Lock, PHONE Unlocked, OEM unlocking option greyed out in developer settings), so I attempted to relock so I could unlock again, hoping that would solve my issue (fastboot oem relock KEY).
By doing this my phone went into a reset, now I'm stuck at FRP Lock, PHONE Relocked, and I can only access the bootloader and eRecovery.
eRecovery is attempting to download updates but fails every time, and I can't use HiSuite to do a system recovery neither (says my device is not supported).
So this is where I'm stuck, any help would be nice!

Try to unlock after this.
This does low-level format.
My device: Mate 9 supersu B190 Mediapad X2 GEM 701->703 B212 KangVIP (AJ mod)
Everything in fastboot (flashing, locking, unlocking) was unavailable, eRecovery was not working, HiSuite said my device was not supported, and dload didn't work neither (tried 3 different firmware versions).
After spending 1-2 hours on Telegram with others I ended up using funkyhuawei with eRecovery, only thing that worked for me.
Last time I buy a Huawei device for sure, their own services don't even work (eRecovery, HiSuite).

As I said here, for your case the patched HiSuite method would have worked. But it's too late now, you paid, I was in holidays.. I know it's a shame that HiSuite says unsupported or erecovery not working but you could have made your phone compatible by writing some text in a file and using Lucx's script instead of paying funkyhuawei, their service never worked for me.

I could fix my phone flashing a factory firmware using DC Phoenix (Yes, I have to pay).
I Flash MHA-AL00 first, then I use eRecovery to install the latest stock firmware and finally HCU Client to repair the empty board (IMEI, S/N, MAC, etc).
I had the same then suddenly it is hardbricked no charging no nothing . It was a 1 month old phone. I didnt do anything other than downloading a c636 oreo and i was c185. But i received it trough the system update using firmware finder and even it authenticated itself. Even installed it with no problem. Then suddenly it broke and after soft brick became hard brick nothing. Now it in service centre i hope they can fix it. It is under warranty. pray for me

Soft brick? Boot-loop after trying to update wrong firmware

Hello.
I've read through the forums but am still quite unsure if i can restore my honor 6x from soft brick. It boots up but i get stuck in rescue mode if i have it charged Or it will just boot-loop if its not plugged in.
Im unable to use the DLOAD method. If i enter fastboot and use the three button method. I get put to the rescue screen. However i may be using the wrong firnware? Possibly.
Its a China version. PE-UL00 given to me from a friend, he said he had restored it to factory settings. So i wanted to upgrade the android kit kat to lollipop version. It was running emui 3. Kitkat 4.42. I believe updated the wrong firmware file through the local update method I download from firmware finder.
Basically from what ive read through the forums would i need to unlock the bootloader and flash stock firmware? . I have the information to acquire the bootloader key i believe and. I have downloaded honor multi tool and huawei multi tool, as well as adb drivers
I get confused as to which stock rom or. Firmware i should download or use. And i cant access the phone to see the build number. All i know is that it's. A China version. PINE-UL00. HONOR 6X. I do remember seeing
UL00_V100R001CHNC00B200 or similar when i was able to access the phone. But it also had custom at the bottom so i wasn't sure if it was a custom rom.
Any suggestions for a noob. Thankyou.

I downloaded dc unlocker, but it doesn't support the boot loader id for PE-UL00 honor 6x. Im still waiting on huawei for the bootloader code. I think k have to log in for 14 days consecutively? I keep getting that message when I try to unlock.
Also the firmware I tried to update it was PE-UL00C00361 OTA-MF from firmware finder.
I downloaded dc phoenix unlocker. Found the correct stock firmware to the best of my knowledge and the phone back to normal. After I was able to update to marshmallow through system updates.
Thank you anyway

Stuck on eRecovery

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,

Softbrick after using official updater (C636), had to downgrade. Better rebrand?

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...

Honor 8 sort of half rooted?

Hello, first of all i want to say that i don't understand a lot of those thing, i'll just try to explain myself as best as i can but if you don't understand something just ask and i'll rephrase it somehow.
I have an EU FRD-L09. When i bought it i tried to root it because i couldnt mute the sound of the whatsapp camera. I did some things (it was a long time ago, i don't remember precisely what) and the phone was in a state where superSU told me that there was no root, but at the boot i always got the message "your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted etc.. ". I was tired so i left it like this until now, the only thing that mattered is that i could use the phone. Now, i want to update from FRD-L09C432B380 to FRD-L09C432B389 (and then hopefully to android 8) but i just can't. When i try to update it, either from the phone or from hisuite it reboots and get stuck in the "your device has been unlocked" state with "your device is booting now..." forever. The only thing i can do is to go in erecovery and reboot. I also tried to restore from erecovery but it says that "Getting package info failed". Restoring from the settings does the same as trying to update. Somebody know what can i do?
I Don't think you ever rooted the phone. From what you said, you only unlocked the bootloader (phone cannot be trusted message on boot). Have you tried dload method to get the system to stock and then updating through HiSuite? (AFAIK This will wipe system and data)
I read about it and i will try it. Should i flash the rollback package from android 7.0 to 6.0 or directly the 6.0 firmware? Right now i am on emui 5.0 android 7.0.
P.S. so i can't update the phone in any way with the bootloader unlocked?
