first line of the thread is "OpenKirin presents unofficial TWRP for stock EMUI 5.x"
first line of the "rooting" sub-menu is "Make sure the device running stock EMUI 5.x boot.img"
... so yes, this will work on EMUI 5.0

How can i go back from Oreo to Android 7?

Hello,
i updated to Oreo on my Honor 8, and i did a backup in HiSuite before.
Now i want to go back from Oreo to Android 7, did an recovery in HiSuite, and i am still in Oreo. So i think i just updates the data and not the Android verison.
How can i downgrade from Oreo back to Android 7 on my Honor 8?
I have no root or bootloader installed, everything is "untouched" on my phone.

You can use eRecovery... This time work and will flash you b407
I spent all day today trying to get back nougat or Oreo STOCK rom because I tried LOS beta 5 and cameras crash constantly. So if anyone can give me advice how to flash Oreo/nougat stock ROM. eRecovery only allows factory reset and reboot. Dload always comes back with error at around 5%... Is it possible to just flash stock system.IMG or something via fastboot?...

eRecovery, not the normal one. In eRecovery you can set your WiFi and download b407
Does anyone know how to downgrade from oreo?
Connect the phone to pc and in HiSuite look for updates. There will be an option to go back to B407. I didn't test it. Just saw the option was there.

i need to android 6.0

i have a s7 and it is android 8.
i want to it downgrade android 6.0
how can do it?
Once you've gone Android 8 you can't fully to get back Android 6.
You can use TWRP to flash an Android 6 ROM, but this will only rollback the ROM. Bootloader will still be Android 8, and having a different bootloader to ROM can cause bugs and issues.
This is also assuming you're on Exynos. If your device is Snapdragon you're **** out of luck.
