[Honor 7 General] hotshot646:
Ok so completely screwed ! I was only able to get into TWRP once to try to root but as soon as I flashed SuperSU it refused to load back to the ROM. Boot looping in TWRP!

I managed to get out of TWRP and into fastboot mode but now its impossible to get anywhere besides the fastboot screen.

Ive tried flashing the stock recovery, system, cust, cache basically everything but absolutely nothing ...

I just got this phone today and right before trying to root I had the B170 OTA..

Havent even tried a phone call yet and I think I bricked it

Any help would be extemely appreciated
[Honor 7 General] btb55:
As mentioned a few posts above yours, you should extract boot and recovery images from B170 and flash them in fastboot and your bootloop will be gone. After that it's up to you, but maybe force a full update to B121 and proceed from there.
[Honor 7 General] hotshot646:
Could have sworn I tried that but guess not because it worked !! Thanks so much buddy and have an awesome day :D
[Honor 7 General] btb55:
Its easy to get into into a bit of mess what with all the flashing, new firmwares and untested methods. Bootloops aren't nice, this one is especially troublesome because only with difficulty can you even get into bootloader mode to try anything. I had a similar hour or so yesterday wondering what do., but fortunately for us someone else knew what to do! Glad you are out of it now.
[Honor 7 General] hotshot646:
Yes definitely nice when someone shares the info !!

Solved that problem thanks to you but Iam having trouble upgrading back to B170 so I flashed a full B130 but cant use the update for B140 so not too sure what to do.

Should I start from B100 and work my way up? Any way to get my B170 OTA automaically (like I had this morning before messing with everything ?)

Thanks in advance :D
[Honor 7 General] btb55:
When I wanted to try B170 I started at 121 and installed each update one by one, 121-130, 130-140 and 140-170 and had no issues. I'm staying at 140 for now, solid root more important to me than the fixes of 170.
[Honor 7 General] hotshot646:
Alright great I will give that a try and perhaps stay on B140 also since root is also important to me also if its just for ad blocker ;)
[Honor 7 General] hotshot646:
How did you go about installing B121 ? I'm having trouble its either saying check version failed or getting stuck at 90%
[Honor 7 General] btb55:
If it sticks at 90% its probably because USB is connected, disconnect before updating and try again. Putting the dload folder, (containg UPDATE.APP and UPDATE_VENDOR.APP) on the SD card worked for me, and Vol+/Vol-/Power together from phone OFF forces the update.
[Honor 7 General] hotshot646:
Tried without the USB but the update just wont start (version check failed) Not sure where to get the UPDATE_VENDOR_APP .
[Honor 7 General] btb55:
If you download full B121 from here, http://www.modaco.com/forums/topic/375942-roms-honor-7-stock-rom-images/ and unzip it, both those files should be in the dload folder, maybe try with those and see what happens? Although I think the B121 (PLK-L01C432B121.zip), downloaded from any other source should have those files.

Not sure why version check fails, except to ask did you first flash fastboot system/cache/and cust images from B121 before trying to force full update through dload folder?

Oh and perhaps do factory wipe/reset from stock recovery?

---------- Post added at 08:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:22 PM ----------

Before you flash any more img files...what version are you on at the moment?
[Honor 7 General] hotshot646:
OK so got the B121 to install by using the rollback package. Basically it seemed as the phone did not want to install anything before B130

Going to install each update in its proper order and see how it goes !!

Thanks again the the advice:good:

PS: HTC's were so much easier :p
[Honor 7 General] btb55:
Think you will be OK now that 121 is installed then. The phone seems quircky, but worth it.

Stuck in TWRP

Hey, I have used this method to root my Honor 7 and it worked perfectly.

About 3 days ago Huawei EMUI released a new update and I installed it.

When I wanted to reboot the phone, the chinese TWRP came up and now I'm stuck in there. I'm unable to reboot.

What should I do?
[Honor 7 General] Icetea:
I tried to root B170 with TWRP_CN 2.8.6.0. Result: bootloop!

After connecting to HiSuite and some flashings, i’m back on B170.

Interesting:

- it is possible to return to B100 or B121 with flashing the MM rollback file.

- Installation of the rollback B313toB300 file fails (!) but anyway, it work!!!

- Hard flashing the B100 or B121 full installation file (pressing power button + LS up and down during reboot!) work!

- The TWRP CN 2.8.6 work successful, but only up to v.B140!

- The TWRP folder on the internal SD work too! (EN themes)

- SuperSU 2.6x work but it is not possible to update the FW without unrooting.

- it is possible to have different recovery images in the fastboot folder. Only the name of the image file has to match during flashing. ( for example: fastboot flash recovery xxxx.img flashes the xxxx.img to the recovery section)

Questions:

1.) which version of TWRP i have to use to successfully root B170

2.) Can anybody explain me the method to root B170 successful?

I have read so many Treads on XDA and on Android-Hilfe about that! But i think, i have forgotten some essential step.

Attention: See my signatures 2.nd row!

Edit: I have used the TWRP 2.6.8 of smiki now (for B170!) and it worked for me WITHOUT boot loop!!!!
[Honor 7 General] prosperoRD:
Honor 7 multi tool

Kept me busy for a couple of hours but finally I unbricked it with the honor 7 multitool. You can find it here on XDA. If you unroot it with this tool as well, you'l get an english version of twrp.

---------- Post added at 09:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:59 PM ----------

BTW you must push volume down when rebooting (i couldnt turn off, started rebooting everytime) just before the little vibration. then you will come into fastboot/recovery mode and will be able to connect to the PC and run multi tool.

Like you can see i'm a junior, so hope this is usefull.
[Honor 7 General] hotshot646:
I was going to try the new TWRP from smiki (since I'm also on B170 but using the Chinese TWRP just to root and then stock recovery to be able to boot into the EMUI) but didn't have the time. It's great that it works, there should be a sticky for rooting B170 since the people that just got the phone and updated before rooting (me for example) were in boot loop heaven :D
[Honor 7 General] Icetea:
please read here too! -> http://xdaforums.com/honor-7/general/features-available-rooted-honor-7-t3292990

Edit:

* it is possible to root B170 without a bootloop using TWRPPLK from sminki

* it is possible to install SuperSU ( i tried v2.66 ) without any changes to the system partition

* It is possible to delete most off the GApps without loosing the update possibility!

(my test: rooted -> deleted some apps like Maps;GMusic; GBooks etc. -> unrooted -> flash stock recovery -> made update B170 100% successful again!

maybe TWRPPLK will be usable at MM too.:fingers-crossed:
[Honor 7 General] ririo:
Hi,

I just was not able to enter the fastboot menu? I have done it many times on different phone but both method you describe ( with or without the Usb cable plugged in don't work.

What do you mean by disabling the "Qwick start feature" ?

Thank you for your help.

[Honor 7 General] Icetea:
with connected usb-cable between device and pc follow my description...

Be sure, that debugging mode is enabled in the setup menu!!

and...

*press power button until the shutdown menu appears.

*select and press reboot until the reboot button appears

* press volume down button and hold it

* press the reboot button and continue holding the volume button pressed down

* wait until reboot is processing

now it should reboot into fastboot mode !
[Honor 7 General] ririo:
Thanks a lot, I have not tried yet, but I keep you posted.
[Honor 7 General] magnea:
How
[Honor 7 General] ririo:
I have used your tip and it worked. Thank you again. DANKE.

Also the unlocked code I got in 24h from the French Hot line was successful .

Just for my information have you any idea why the standard Android procedure to get in Fasboot ( (Power , Volume - ) does or don't work on the some of the Honor 7??

Also I did find the screen when entering Fastboot & Rescue mode somehow strange??

No scroll menu?

A link to http:\\zh.vi.vmall.com/emotiondowload.php? mode=restore leading nowhere ??

I also read somwhere that not all of the fastboot commands are handled by the Huawei bootloader any specific reasons ?

Thanks again for your time

I'm Trying To Root The Latest Marshmallow Update For 2 Days Now And I Get Nothing But Bricking
[Honor 7 General] Icetea:
i don’t know why.:confused:

but here are some additional information about root:

* You will be able to change your recovery with the RASHR app without any computer! But don’t flash kernel with it!!!

* to be able to update in the near future, it is necessary to let your system partition untouched! So be careful using TWRPPLK

* SuperSU 2.67 BETA works fine. Please fully remove your SuperSU befor updating it!!! Otherwise you maybe can get complications!

What to do now? My phone's bootloader is unlocked and it's' even detected by pc in fastboot mode. Kindly help! Thanks in advance.

I tried to root my PLK-L01 running FW B330 (Android 6.0) with SuperSU 2.67, but unfortunately it did not work: phone get stuck during boot.

Restoring system partition with TWRP (backed up before rooting) resolved the boot problem, but my phone is still not rooted :(

Update: I retired with version 2.62-3 and it went fine! thx for the help

Does it work with supersu2.62-3? Have you got link to download it?

What happen if i try to install rom (like Yodarom) without supersu?

It's my first time with root/rom/modding, so I'm a little nervous

Thx

[Honor 7 General] Icetea:
i returned to stock b330 yesterday. Tried to root with SuperSU 2.72. This doesn't work!

Tried to root with version 2.62 successfully as it was described a few posts before.

After than i have rebooted into TWRP to update to v2.72 without getting a problem.

Now i have 2.72 installed and it works fine.

Seems that the installation process between v2.62 and 2.72 differs.
[Honor 7 General] raghavhartz:
i'm on indian version B160 so basically which twrp img should i use tht officially one by paulobrien or one mentioned here and wht about super su ver.??
[Honor 7 General] Icetea:
hi,

as you have read, i recommend TWRP 3.0.3 from paulobrien because it is v3 and newer as the sminky version of TWRP will be.

But 3 suggestions about rooting:

* never root if you don't know what you are doing!

* never root without reserve firmware files!

* don’t cry if root procedure fails!

because they are no versions of india (UL00) B160/170 available, you have to update to B341 at first to be save.

(you need recovery.img; recovery2.img; system.img aso.... to get into stock rom if you fail installing SuperSU!)

update available here: http://www.hihonor.com/in/support/details/index.html?DOC_ID=77445

then you need "HuaweiUpdateExtractor" and the ADB package including fastboot and so on.

(Information about this stuff you will find on XDA!)

and now the most important:

DON'T USE SuperSU newer than 2.62 to root your device!!!! If you have rooted successfully, you can update to 2.72 if you want!

So:

1.) install twrp

2.) Install SuperSu2.62.zip with twrp

3.) reboot your device

4.) if reboot was successful, check root

5.) you can update to the last version of SuperSU on playshop.

Good luck! And you know: no risk, no fun!

Sent from PLK-TL01H
[Honor 7 General] Icetea:
between SuperSu 2.62 and later the patch procedure seems to be changed.

The update procedure normally copy the boot.img into ram and patch the SE linux status to permissive. Without this, it is not possible to get root

!

---------- Post added at 21:06 ---------- Previous post was at 21:03 ----------

it should! But if you get into a boot loop, you will not be able to repair your system because you have no images from B160/B170 for flashing to your device!!!

Bootloop nightmare

I'm on PLK-L01 (UK) on B330 and now have the glowing 'honor' logo bootloop and can't get any further after:

Obtaining the unlock code using DC-Unlocker (Checked phone status was 'unlocked')

Installed TWRP from http://xdaforums.com/honor-7/general/guide-beginners-how-to-root-update-fix-t3255452

When I rebooted into recovery it landed at the TWRP splashpage but seems to hang for about 30 secs before entering recovery. I then went through the advice page and ticked what I thought were the best options then installed the SU zip file (BETA-SuperSU-v2.74-2-20160519174328). I then attempted to reboot but I'm now stuck in the bootloop.

I then dug some more and saw the note on this thread "Serious advice: Don’t try to accept OTA with modified system or custom recovery installed. In first case OTA will be refused, in second case you might experience TWRP bootloop."

I can boot into FASTBOOT & RESCUE MODE with the usb cable connected and at the bottom it states 'PHONE unlocked' in red.

I think I may well be in this situation but have no idea how to get out. Anyone got any ideas?

***EDIT***

Have managed to fix the bootloop. The issue was that I installed twrp-3.0.2-0-plank, which there are obviously issues with, so I downloaded and installed twrp-2.8.7.0-hwplk and rebooted and all is fine. I then re-installed SU and the phone is now rooted.

[Honor 7 General] renierx:
Hi, use SuperSU 2.62, newer versions don't work with stock boot.img.

Ver 2.62 works best for me with stock kernel.

If you use DigiKernel then you can use 2.72 (and most probably 2.78, not confirmed).

2.62 worked if I don't do any wipes after. If I wipe cache/dalvik then it is stucked in the Honor logo again.
