Folks,
I recently bought a Honor 8 and was trying to unlock the bootloder, install twrp and supersu by following the link below
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/guide-unlock-bootloader-install-twrp-t3554789
As stated in the link above, I got to the steps to install supersu. However, on following step 12, it has formatted the data and now the phone is in a bootloop(stuck on the blue screen showing HONOR label)
I'm guessing my phone will not boot up since the OS has been erased. Could someone please help me restore this phone to back to the stock firmware and steps needed to do so. I am new to Honor phones, so not sure what I need to do and steps needed. Would appreciate any help if possible??
1. Boot into TWRP
2. Once there, when asked to keep system read only? - swipe to allow modifications
3. Tap Install
4. Tap Select Storage - Select your SD card
5. Select the supersu file "SuperSU-v2.79-201612051815-EMUI5.0.zip"
6. Swipe to confirm flash
7. Ignore the multiple errors: "Failed to mount '/data' (Invalid argument)
8. Go back to the main menu
9. Select Reboot to Recovery
10. When asked to keep system read only? - swiped to allow modifications (again)
11. Tap Wipe
12. Tap Format Data
13. Type YES then hit enter
14. It will format data using make_ext4fs..
15. When finished, tap Reboot System
16. Reboot back into TWRP
17. Swipe to allow modifications (You can check the box to never show this again)
18. Tap Install
19. Select storage
20. Select your SD card
21. Select the supersu file "SuperSU-v2.79-201612051815-EMUI5.0.zip"
22. Swipe to confirm flash
23. You should see NO ERRORS now when installing SuperSU
24. Wipe cache/dalvik
25. Swipe to wipe
26. Reboot system
Download the rollback and marshmallow firmware package from honors website. Rename the rollback package to "UPDATE.APP" and place it in a folder called "dload" in your micro SD card. Put the micro SD in your phone, and boot into the firmware update screen (volume up + volume down + power all at the same time). Once it's done, delete the old UPDATE.APP file from the dload folder, rename your marshmallow firmware package to "UPDATE.APP", place it in the dload folder on your micro SD card, place the micro SD in your phone, and again flash the firmware using volume up +volume down +power
Since you still have access to the SD Card via USB, you can just download your firmware, extract it and put the UPDATE.APP in a dload folder on a microSD card and press all 3 buttons when starting up the phone to start installing the OS again.
Appreciate the feedback. I tried going to the below website to pick up the rollback package and the firmware( Android 6.0)
http://www.hihonor.com/us/support/search-result/index.html?keywords=Honor%208%20Firmware
My question is that is it possible to just restore it back to android nougat(7.0) in the U.S or has the 7.0 not released for the U.S markets yet?
I found the following link below for the Android 7.0(Nougat) firmware for Honor 8 but not sure if this work on the phones bought in the U.S
http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=FRD-L14
Appreciate your feedback on this..
Since the phone is in bootloop, I would have to use a different phone and it's SD card slot to download the firmware and then put it on the Honor 8. I'm guessing the rollback process would only apply if I wanted to go back to the Marshmellow firmware. My question though is would I be able to restore it back to Android Nougat(7.0) if possible.
I found the following link below for the Nougat(7.0) firmware. Not sure if this will work on the U.S phones. Is there a different process to restore it back to Nougat?
http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=FRD-L14
You can try just getting the nougat firmware onto your micro SD, then pressing volume up + volume down + power to see if it works. Worse case scenario is that you'll get an error.
If you do get an error, your can try the rollback procedure. Once you get marshmallow running you can always just update back to nougat with OTA.
Oh yeah, you don't necessarily need another phone. Just get a micro SD card adapter and plug it into your computer, then transfer the files into the dload folder
---------- Post added at 07:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:34 PM ----------
You can use the following link for marshmallow firmware. Again, you can always update to nougat later using OTA
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/development/models-stock-firmware-packages-honor-8-t3501942
thanks for the info..just another clarification. The nougat firmware I found online was a zip file that included 3 files(attached snapshot) . I noticed one of the files is the UPDATE.APP.
My question is on creating the new dload folder do I need to remove the other two files or just copy all of 3 files in the dload folder before I try to restore the phone back.. Sorry if it's a straight-forward question, but I just want to make sure I'm doing this right.
Much thanks...
Just the UPDATE.APP
What are the other 2 files? Just curious
there is a folder called : META-INF which has some files in it and also a file called: full_mainpkg.tag which is only a 1KB file so maybe that's inconsequential.
Did you try out the procedure yet? The META-INF folder should not be necessary. You can always try the method with and without the folder included if you really need to.
I did...it did do the update following the steps you mentioned and it seems everything went fine as far as the update is concerned. I didn't get any errors, but once the phone rebooted it is still stuck on the blue screen with the Honor logo on it
Have you tried the rollback procedure as well?
---------- Post added at 04:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:08 AM ----------
If neither procedure worked, you can try another procedure which involves extracting SYSTEM.IMG, BOOT.IMG, RECOVERY.IMG, and CUST.IMG from the UPDATE.APP file, then flashing all of them through fastboot, and finally preforming the rollback procedure again.
was finally able to get the phone to reboot and load the firmware. It does seem that there is some issue with the keyboard now as it's only showing OK google as the keyboard so I don't have a keyboard anymore. Not sure how to go around this. Also the phone seems a little laggy and unresponsive at times which wasn't happening earlier. I'm thinking of trying the rollback method to see if that helps or improves the performance of the phone. Let me know of you have any suggestions. Thanks again for your help...
That's a known issue with the keyboard. For some reason it does not function correctly after a factory reset. The rollback should fix everything. Once you are back on marshmallow, just update back to nougat (if you want to) through OTA system update.
Edit: it might actually be easier to just perform a factory reset on the nougat firmware. I'm assuming your data was wiped through the procedure anyway, right?
I can do the rollback but I just realized that I have the 64GB version which is the FRD-L14
http://www.phonemore.com/huawei-honor-8/models/629
I'm not sure if there is a FRD-L14(64GB) variant of the MM firmware available anywhere. If so, I'm not aware of the link of the site to find it. Secondly, if I do install the FRD-L04(32GB) variant of the MM firmware would that create problems for the phone in upgrading and later trying to root and install custom ROM etc.
Much Thanks
The nougat firmware your flashed earlier, was it the L14 firmware? I would not flash a L04 firmware on a L14. Instead, you can probably flash the L14 nougat firmware (unless you already did) and then perform a factory reset
EDIT: Refer to this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/frd-l14-users-how-to-restore-downgrade-t3537433
The OP uploaded the correct L14 firmware files. Remember to first flash the rollback package, then the firmware.
the firmware I flashed earlier was the L14 firmware. I went to the link you mentioned above in your post. It's a little confusing as far as the exact steps that need to be followed as people seem to be adding/modifying steps. Would help if I could get a clear step process on how/what to follow.
Also, is it okay to flash the rollback package and then flash the nougat firmware package for L14 if I am currently on nougat(not fully functioning as mentioned in the posts above).
This link below from your reference thread has a few L14 firmware's. I had earlier picked up the first one from the list. Not sure if that's the correct one to flash..
http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=FRD-L14
Thanks again...
The rollback package is only used if you're downgrading from nougat to marshmallow. Otherwise, you don't need it. Since you were having some issues after flashing the nougat firmware, I would recommend that you rollback, and then update to nougat afterwards. Here's a step by step:
1. Get an micro SD card. Create a folder on it called "dload"
2. Download the F14 rollback package from the following link:
http://download-c.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=92098&version=360320&siteCode=us-h
Extract the UPDATE.APP file, and place it into your dload folder. Pace the micro sd into your phone
3. With the phone shut off, press volume up + volume down + power to flash the UPDATE.APP. Once it's done, shut down your phone and remove the sd card
4. Download the F14 Marshmallow firmware from the following link:
http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1201/g88/v66294/f1/full/update.zip
Extract the UPDATE.APP, and replace the old UPDATE.APP in the dload folder with the new one you just downloaded.
5. Place the micro sd into your phone. Repeat the button combination to flash it. Once it's done, shut down your phone.
6. Press volume up + power to boot into system recovery. Wipe the phone's data from this screen.
7. Boot into the phone. Go to settings -> About
Check to see if the model# etc is correct. If it is not, complete step 8. Otherwise go to step 9:
8. Download the following file:
http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/...94/f1/full/hw/usa/update_data_full_hw_usa.zip
Extract the UPDATE.APP, place it in the dload folder, and flash it.
9. Boot into the phone. If you want to update to nougat, do the following:
Go to your dialer, and type *#*#2432546#*#*
This will force your phone to check for updates.
Then go to Settings -> Updater to update to nougat
I did follow your steps, but my keyboard has now vanished when the set up screen appears. It only shows google voice and I'm having trouble setting up my phone. Has anyone had the same problem. What can I do to get my keyboard back?
Note: my phone is unrooted. Not sure if that makes a difference

First thing first, everything you do will be doing on your own risk, these steps are working perfectly but still if anything happened, i will be not responsible for it:
Follow the steps carefully:
First down load the required files
1. Firmware and flashing tool to downgrade from here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-6/how-to/nokia-6-official-firmware-mena-region-t3664441
2. July to January [2018 naugat] OTA from here
Download the February oreo OTA also( in case if you failed to flash your device)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-6/how-to/updated-mirror-link-ota-monthly-updates-t3733784
3. This whole process will also required a sd card or memory card
4. The instructions to flash the device is available on the firmware thread that i provided you.
Now
Install the tool that you downloaded from the link
Put all the OTA zips ok the sd card and reboot your device to recovery
To put it into recovery, power off your device properly
Plug your charger, and wait to see the battery charging animation
Once you see the battery icon, press and hold the power key and volume plus button together
Once you see the android logo, release the power button but keep holding volume plus button teel you see a screen with "no command" written
When you see the screen no command screen
Just hit these three button together simultaneously
Power button+volume plus+home key(fingerprint sensor)
For 2-3 times
You will see the recovery menu
Now select the option, update from sd card
Select the December OTA from sd card
Now it will give you error but it will change some files and nougat recovery menu
Reboot your device, it will take you to direct recovery menu
Now
The instructions will be for OST tool and for mena firmware
Install OST tool
Now
1. Open ur directory, c:/program files x86/OST and replace the online update tool from there and delete the config file,
AND REMEMBER THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT,
2. Open online update tool from ur directory only, from c:/program files x86/OST only, donot start it from any shortcut created on desktop or from start menu, just start it from its original directory,
if it still gives error about microsoft error warning, try fresh replacing ur online update tool again from the zip
And start the program from there only, once it successfully started
3. Click next, then choose the firmware mena, that is
PLE-3320-0-00WW-A02.nb0 file and put ur phone into bootloader, click next button, now the first time u may stuck on flashing splash file and ur phone could restarted
4. Follow all the same steps again
5. Start the tool again
The tool will surely give u error for Microsoft.net
Dont panic
Close it and replace the file again
6. Remember no matter if replace the file before error, it will give error for one time surely
7. Replace it again with online updating tool and the start it from the directory
8. Now Click next, then choose the firmware mena, that is
PLE-3320-0-00WW-A02.nb0 ( your one could be CNxxxx) file and put ur phone into bootloader
9. Now connect it and click next this time your phone will get flashed successfully...if it give error again, then try one more time u will be successfully installed the mena firmware
After this your device could ask you to reset your device. Just do it.
Now one thing to remember
The
HwOTA 7+8 for Huawei Mate 10 Lite1. On the phone, make a backup of all data (since during the upgrade all data will be erased). This is an obligatory condition.
2. Unlock your bootloader: (There´s no way around it (unfortnuately), but after the procedure your device will be locked again, so don´t worry!). The device will make a factory reset, so once again, BACKUP your files!!!!!!!!!!
3. Enable ‘USB debugging’ and ‘OEM Unlock’ option from setting>developer option>. To enable Developer Options, go to About phone and tap the Build Number 7 times.
4. You must download three zip-archives with a full "Full OTA" firmware on which you want to flash (If you look through in the FF (FirmwareFinder), you see there are 4 archives for China and 3 for other locations. You must to download for the version what model and location you will have after the firmware);
5. Add the downloaded files to the folder "HWOTA\Update" and run the .cmd file, it will rename them automatically according to the template:
- update_data_full_public.zip to update_data_public.zip
- update_full_....zip to update_all_hw.zip
- update.zip don't rename
6. After run the universal batch file update.bat in the "HWOTA" folder, which will provide an opportunity to choose the required work option (change firmware/rebranding (change location)). FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS ON THE SCREEN OF THE MONITOR - the entire process is accompanied by prompts.
At the end of the process, everything should work fine... Be prepared, the bootloader will be locked after changing the location or firmware as a FullOTA.
7. If suddenly it turned out "bootloop" - go into the stock Recovery and make wipe.
PS: To change the firmware using the SD card, you need to create a folder "HWOTA" on the SD card and copy three firmware archives with the changed names (see above). In the batch file select item 1 "SDCard HWOTA directory"

For Oreo beta?
No to RNE-L21C432B135 Nougat
I haven't tested it for oreo beta I'm back to MORFUZ V 1.0
Great looking, it works perfectly, I tried to install oreo but it does not work, it always returns to 7.0 and 5.1. At least I managed to redirect the cell. But for the oreo version I think I have to wait because I've tried many but no one works.
I used this on top of the MidgarD ROM I had, now I have a normal 4.5G AND a working face unlock. On Stock ROM, I didn't have the option for the face unlock, and when I installed Elemental ROM and later MidgarD ROM, it didn't work on both of those. This is interesting, isn't it?
I also didn't immediately lose my installed apps, by which I mean until I unlocked the bootloader again.
Bad news: Despite installing Magisk and enabling Magisk Hide after this, I fail the Safety Net check
Thanks man its working fine, my Mate 10 Lite was soft bricked or wont get proper hardware and face unlock, now it works
in start it was problematic for me, wifi would not turn on, phone will periodically show storage full (there was no SD Card in it)
then I restarted 2/3 times, and poof.
Now not only phone is back but it has oreo
Hi!
I tried this, downloaded the rne-l21c432b135 FullOTA from Firmware Finder and followed the instructions.
However, when it boots after finishing then my phone has turned into NEO-L21 and I am not able to get back to RNE-L21 without replacing the software with an older backup. It says also the unit is rooted (Huawei ID says so when I should enter my fingerprint) even though I have formatted the unit.
What am I doing wrong?
EDIT: Sorry, I had used the wrong file (there is one for the RNE-L01 and one for the RNE-L21) and that made all the difference, I am not back to stock!
Thank you so much for the help!
Hi,
Works for RNE-L01C432B135 perfect. I updated without any problem.
But because I don't want to stay with locked bootloader, I made all rooting procedure from the beginning.
That was easy too, because I have backups of every single details (important datas from internal storage, messages, programs and of course /data/hw_init folder, SuperSU-decyrpt)
Thanks again

Where can I find HwOTA for Huawei Honor View10?
HI Guys
my current firmware is RNE-L21C185B110 but i can't find any FULL OTA firmware but only OTA MF (RNE-L21C185B142CUSTC185D001 this is the last available update).
My bootloader is unlocked, unrooted and without TRWP
How can I do to update to last firmware with HwOTA?
ok
To install the update of the B142 you do not necessarily have to use the HWOTA, you simply have to copy the DLOAD folder from the extracted RAR file to your SD, if your SD says that the file is very large ... format the SD to another type of Format..
Formatting a unit SD in exFAT
1. Double-click on Equipment.
2. Right-click on the flash drive or memory card, then select Format.
3. In the File System list, click exFAT.
4. Click on Start.
5. Click OK to begin the format.
After saving the DLOAD folder to the SD.
- Turn off your smartphone
- Now press the volume button up + Volume down + Power button at the same time, so that the update process starts automatically.
- This procedure takes 5 to 10 minutes to complete
- Automatically it will restart ... and you will have installed the update.

This is my personal way on how I got to root my phone
WARNING: ROOTING WILL VOID WARRANTY (MEANING NO WARRANTY) AND WILL DELETE ALL DATA
You need around 2 hours to do this if you don't have experience with it!
Requirements:
Unlocked bootloader
Latest version of Odin 3.13.3
Your firmware CSC (go to settings > about phone > software information > Service provider software version and see the last 3 letters, that is your CSC)
A brain, patience, common sense, time, basic computer knowledge
Step 1: Download firmware from here, in the link change CNX to your CSC (3 letter thing mentioned in requirements)
Step 2: Extract your AP file from the firmware zip
Step 3: Patch your entire AP file with magisk, from your phone
Step 4: Move the patched AP file to your pc
Step 5: Click AP in ODIN and choose the patched file
Step 6: Close your phone, hold vol up and vol down and after 8 seconds, connect your USB into your phone, then open download mode by pressing the vol up key
Step 7: Disable auto reboot from options. Now press START on ODIN, wait till it says Pass!
Step 8: Re-download the magisk app used to patch the AP file, and follow the steps that magisk gives! (DO NOT RESTART YOUR PHONE BEFORE FINISHING WITH THIS STEP, YOU WILL HAVE TO FLASH ALL ORIGINAL FILES AGAIN)
Congratulations, you are now rooted!
Hello after successful rooting I'm having issues with Sim.It basically won't recognize Sims on both slots when device starts up it gives me message "IMEI (or MEID) is missing".Any ideas?I have removed all root/restored original firmware and relocked bootloader doesn't seem to work.
Not sure, I'm one of the noobs too, have you over clocked? Maybe it broke it.
Try erasing all data, and reinsert the SIM
Tried everything nothing works even flashing older firmwares doesn't help
Nope didn't overclock just rooted

This is my personal way on how I got to root my phone
WARNING: ROOTING WILL VOID WARRANTY (MEANING NO WARRANTY) AND WILL DELETE ALL DATA
You need around 2 hours to do this if you don't have experience with it!
Requirements:
Unlocked bootloader
Latest version of Odin 3.13.3
Your firmware CSC (go to settings > about phone > software information > Service provider software version and see the last 3 letters, that is your CSC)
A brain, patience, common sense, time, basic computer knowledge
Step 1: Download firmware from here, in the link change CNX to your CSC (3 letter thing mentioned in requirements)
Step 2: Extract your AP file from the firmware zip
Step 3: Patch your entire AP file with magisk, from your phone
Step 4: Move the patched AP file to your pc
Step 5: Click AP in ODIN and choose the patched file
Step 6: Close your phone, hold vol up and vol down and after 8 seconds, connect your USB into your phone, then open download mode by pressing the vol up key
Step 7: Disable auto reboot from options. Now press START on ODIN, wait till it says Pass!
Step 8: Re-download the magisk app used to patch the AP file, and follow the steps that magisk gives! (DO NOT RESTART YOUR PHONE BEFORE FINISHING WITH THIS STEP, YOU WILL HAVE TO FLASH ALL ORIGINAL FILES AGAIN)
Congratulations, you are now rooted!
