[Honor 7 General] uramaki:
Hi guys,

So, i got my Honor7 soft-bricked when was installing SuperSU. Followed the guide and everything went smooth until SuperSU. After installing and reboot, the phone entered Rescue mode with errors about failed image and boot problems. Fortunately found a way to revert the process (fastboot recovery.img and update.app), and it's alive again.

My PLK-L01 has the last update (B380). Can someone tell me what happened with SuperSU? I remember I saw some problems when it was installing via TWRP, something had failed but I can't remember. Before trying again - and probably soft brick the phone again - any suggestions?

Many thanks!

Hi all,

I've just switched from a Nexus 5 to an Honor 7 (dual sim needed) currently in B380.

I'm about to root it (unlock is done OK).

I've read some issues with using latest supersu (2.79) => Is it still recommended to use v2.62 ? If yes, after root OK, can I update to latest version of supersu ?

Thx ;)
[Honor 7 General] Dontom1990:
Hey,

i just had the problem with flashing the 2.79 su and it softbricked my phone. I recomend to use the 2.62, it worked perfectly for me. i think the update after the root is no problem (but i diddnt check it).

Greetings
[Honor 7 General] benoit.btd:
Thanks for your response.

Root is OK with 2.62 => I've not yet updated to latest.
[Honor 7 General] uramaki:
I've managed to root with 2.62 (I soft-bricked the phone with SuperSU 2.78) and after that installed cyanogenmod and root with 2.79 via TWRP with no problems.
[Honor 7 General] benoit.btd:
Indeed, I've just upgrade from 2.62 to latest (via Playstore update) and all is OK.

[Honor 7 General] crazyboy24:
I have honor 7 & I am stuck on "Powered by Android" screen. I can only go into Fastboot mode, Debugging is On and Bootloader is Unlocked.

I tried installing stock and TWRP recovery, but cannot enter into it. I have tried flashing stock rom through Fastboot but still stuck there. The reason for this problem is I restored 3rdmodem, Dtimage, modem, etc partition from Honor 7 6.0.1 B380 version which was already installed in my phone.

For me the possible solution is flashing the stock 3rdmodem, Dtimage, etc image but when I do so using fastbook it says "command not allowed".

Can somebody here help me out?
[Honor 7 General] Schnewaldi:
I have a problem: When I use

fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

I get the error:

FAILED:<remote:command not allowed>

. I read that reunlocking the bootloader should help but when I use

fastboot oem lock

or

fastboot flashing lock

I get that error message again:crying:. What can I do?

In fastboot mode it says "PHONE unlocked" and using

fastboot get-bootinfo

says

(bootloader) unlocked

altough I dont know when I unlocked it:D so maybe it isnt properly unlocked. Can anyone help me?

Hi,

first of all thank you for the great post and thanks for the former answers. With all that I managed to root my honor 7. But after the rooting the size of my internal storage is only 3.87 Gb. What could be the problem?

Thanks for any help

SOLVED: by factory resetting the Phone.
[Honor 7 General] benoit.btd:
Hi,

I got the notification of OTA update for B390 and I installed it.

Then I installed TWRP (latest) + flash supersu (BETA-SuperSU-v2.62-3-20151211162651.zip) + reboot the phone.

But SuperSU app says "root undetected".

Any idea ?
[Honor 7 General] eddor1614:
Use version 2.79 and force SYSTEMLESS mode.

It works
[Honor 7 General] benoit.btd:
Yes ! Thank you very much ! ;)
[Honor 7 General] InfinityOfficial:
What is and how to force SYSTEMLESS mode ?
[Honor 7 General] adriansticoid:
Systemless mode roots your device without writing to system. This is automated. Don't need to do any forcing.

Hi all,

I followed successfully all the steps (1-24) in Part I.

After that I tried to update the ROM like advised in Part IV.

After step 7, the phone reboots into Team Win Recovery Project v2.8.7.0.

QUESTION: How can I actually apply the update from SD-card?

BR, Tommi
[Honor 7 General] kenshiwara:
I have just updated the guide and made it more clear while organizing the sections around.

Simply follow the steps mentioned in Part I. You need to apply the B121, then the incremental updates.

Note: You need to update your device before rooting or else you will need to root your device again.
[Honor 7 General] AlexandrosNic:
Kensiwara, excellent guide and thank you to share your knowledge with xda community!!!

I've tried all the methods (fastboot, local update, volume-power buttons) to downgrade from B140 to B121 to fix some battery bugs, but the update keeps saying "Software install failed". Does anyone know why this is happening?
[Honor 7 General] vardagsrum:
Hello, i bought this phone yesterday here in sweden so i guess its european version. I have b121 plk-l01. Can i use this guide to root my phone? Only reason i need root is to move obb files to sdcard because 16gb is a bit to little space. And if i root and want to ota update my phone, can i do that then? Do i need to reroot phone if i do that?

[Honor 7 General] samcro94:
No TWRP for B313 so no root for B313 so no B313 for me !
[Honor 7 General] kenshiwara:
Yes, this guide is perfectly applicable for PLK-L01 devices.

You need first to apply the updates though before rooting.

P.S: No custom recovery yet for B313. It is better to wait for the final release. As far as the previous stable updates are concerned though, you can perfectly root and install custom recovery for your device.
[Honor 7 General] kenshiwara:
No TWRP yet for B313. Please be patient and wait for the latest stable release. We are only posting about stable releases up here. We don't recommend you to install any beta versions. There is no point in rushing things up :cowboy:
[Honor 7 General] Piemo:
Wouldn't even try to flash B313 without having root, was only interested 'bout the situation.

I'll patiently wait. Thx

[Honor 7 General] Icetea:
if you did not root your phone, you can rollback also from the B170 down to B100 with flashing the B100 SYSTEM.img!

[Honor 7 General] dchapela:
If you don't have the Product ID and you can't restart your phone try below:

- Download HUAWEI Product ID Generator. (I still restricted to URLs, you can get in google)

- Select HUAWEI Y300-0000, enter EMAI1, and copy ID generated.

Then in the Huawei page form:

Product Model: HUAWEY Y300-0000

Serial number: (get in the original box sticker)

IMEI1: (get in the original box sticker)

Product ID: (get with ID Generator)

Captcha and submit.

I did it with my PLK-L01 and it works!!

Is there a chance to prepare USERDATA.IMG in PC already containing /dload/UPDATE.APP or /sdcard/dload/UPDATE.APP. I am still in bootloop and fastboot uploads did not cure it, including forced update via sdcard (external drive).
[Honor 7 General] sminki:

[Honor 7 General] FearFac:
[MENTION=4502149]sminki[/MENTION]: maybe you dont want to repeat what you wrote it in forum, for some reason :), nevertheless, I am finally out of bootloop;

the cure was flashing Full B130 from fastboot, it looks the sequence of partitions flashing is important (I guess CUST must go after SYSTEM), reboot to bootloader (USB plugged, vol-), and flashing BOOT and RECOVERY from update B140-B170; anything else failed, including full B100, B121 and forced upgrade from external sdcard (failed at 5 %); we need something like ODIN for SAMSUNGs to re-flash all partitions from PC (modems etc.); other way could be the flashing USERDATA already containing UPDATE.APP
[Honor 7 General] sminki:
Nah, I would've removed it, i apologised later anyway :p

The bootloader doesn't allow us to flash blackbox partitions..

Flashing in any order doesn't matter, at the point of bootloader they have no relevance to each other, as long as you do the ones we can.

The update.app has recovery scripts which check the version you are on from build.prop, that does matter. Which is why it's often suggested to start at B100

Anyway, good that you've fixed it, now

don't

flash MM :P

[Honor 7 General] btb55:
This is PLK-L01C. What's the recommended way to return to stock B100 on a rooted B140 firmware with TWRP recovery?

I'm thinking first do a full unroot with SuperSu, then fastboot flash stock recovery. What steps after that? Can the B100 full firmware zip file then be flashed from the stock recovery?

Update:

Phone is now full unrooted, fastboot flashed stock recovery (B121), then extracted UPDATE.APP from B121 full firmware and placed in dload folder on SD card. Then with phone OFF, press Vol+/Vol-/power button to force update. Phone starts in update mode but fails at 0% and only option to reboot system. The same failure occurs with UPDATE.APP from B100

Is there anything else I can try to go back to either B100 0r B121 from B140?
[Honor 7 General] 0v3r cl0ck3d:
stock recovery

when i flash the TWRP_Honor7_EN.img it just flashes the default recovery. maybe im doing something wrong but thought id just comment incase you've got the wrong file
[Honor 7 General] btb55:
I sussed my problem out. When on B140 and rooted I'd removed bloatware system apps and think this was why the update couldn't verify the version installed and so failed to run. Fixed by using fastboot and flashing boot/system/recovery/cache/cust images extracted from B121, and then the full B121 UPDATE.APP completed. So now rolled back successfully from B140 to B121.
[Honor 7 General] ZyPreXa87:

Step 6: Open your command prompt, and navigate to the right directory where you have extracted the image files. Use the “cd” and “..” commands to do so.

Step 7: Type the following commands and execute them one by one >

Code:

fastboot flash boot BOOT.img

fastboot flash system SYSTEM.img

fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.img

Hi. I updated to B180 I believe (PLK-L01 and 5.0.2), and then followed the steps in the first post.

I'm all good up until this step:

Step 20: When the process of flashing the recovery is done, reboot your device into the recovery mode using the following command >

Code:

adb reboot recovery

And this just doesn't work for me.

I get "error: device '<null>' not found"

or once a perpetual boot attempt, which I couldn't break out of, but it eventually just booted up normally after about 5 minutes of vibrate, honor splash screen, black screen, repeat - I'd given up trying to intervene at that point.

And following other steps to boot into recovery mode- holding down power & Volume up, just boots up the phone normally.

Is there any way of checking that the recovery image has successfully flashed?

Am I doing something obviously wrong here?

Is the TWRP image linked to not compatible with B180?

All I want is to be able to have root priveleges on my phone - surely it shouldn't be this complicated?!!

Any pointers would be very much appreciated.

cheers.

Problem

Hi guys,

It's been the hole day now struggling trying to solve my bootloop. Could someone help me?

This morning I had 170B with root and I decided to put the new 330B.

So I flashed with ADB the files extracted from the original 121B package: BOOT.IMG, CUST.IMG, RECOVERY.IMG, CACHE.IMG AND SYSTEM.IMG.

Everything fine with the exception of SYSTEM.IMG: - error: cannot load 'system.img' -

So I tried with the version 100B but same problem.

I cannot more go inside the bootloader even if I flash the TWRP back. I tried running cmd as administrator and I also tried to add -S 512M when flashing.

I searched in the hole WWW but coulnt find anything that solves my problem...

Thanks

I guess I did something wrong when I was updating but how can I fix this? I want to rollback to Lollipop.

I understand I should [unroot>flash stock recovery>apply OTA b121 to b180>apply full package for 330 via update.app> reroot > pray all goes smooth]

Also... does the jump from 180 to 330 wipes system? Should I specially backup the apps in this step? Thank you.

The OP is awesome and precise but...

Could you please add which native recovery has to be used to update each of the levels?

Is there a B330 which is not BETA? Where can i find it?

Should I unroot the phone before an update? In OP it is recommended to update before root, but there is no warning to "unroot" before the update. Is it dangerous? Or is it just "lost" and has to be re-rooted?

Thank you,

Xavi

Hi,

I have installed successfully B330b EMUI 4.0 Android 6.0.1 (United Kingdom) by following instructions in "Part V - How To Fix Bootloops" sections. All went well. (The source of installed images: ... modaco.c o m /forums/topic/375942-roms-honor-7-stock-rom-images-updated-1st-april-2016-plk-l01/?page=1)

Then I followed literally these "Part II - How To Root Huawei Honor 7" instructions.

After installing SuperSU ("BETA-SuperSU-v2.74-2-20160519174328.zip") and clicked on the "Reboot" in TWRP the phone won't start anymore. It stays in the starting screen and screen says "honor" by changing background color of characters. Seems that it stays there forever. Nothing else happens.

I suggest you to use SuperSU 2.62.zip for it!!! After reboot you can update to 2.65 from playstore!

SuperSU newer than 2.62 can/will fail!:p

reason: the root procedure has changed after v2.62
