At your own risk!!!

I didnt try it myself because i dont have root

Translated with Google :)

All credits go toe AlicaFabienne from Android-Hilfe.de

ROOT also goes by MM6 B321, see # 61 of matze0611

Without risk, it is better to wait for the final MM update.

On own risk for boot loops, Bricks or economic total loss!

B317 -> B321

The OTA B321 can be installed from the B317 ...

Prerequisite is the installed B317 with ROOT and TWRP

1. Remove SuperSU with "Full unroot".

2. Update Patch "P8_HwOUC.zip" (XDA source)Install with TWRP

3. Return to the B317 Stock Recovery over ..

fastboot flash recovery

fastboot flash boot

4. Restart P8

With "Local Update" :) start the OTA-B321 "update.zip" in dload the sdcard folder.

- EMUI runs through to 100%, but takes a long time,

then "EMUI system is optimized" which takes a very long time.

Done.

B321 is installed in B317

If you want you can restore ROOT
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] dbu828:
this was working for me.
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ionutzpaul61:
Root method?
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] dbu828:
yes. i only followed the instructions above.
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] rodlane:
Are there any improvements?
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] gm.promix:
Hello,

Have anyone tried to install B321 OTA over B317 using adb sideload ?
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] djg269:
Got the update this afternoon. :)
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] TopperBG:
You was on B317 before? Locked and unrooted?

Which country ?
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] djg269:
Im from the Netherlands and i was on a manually flashed B317. Locken and Unrooted.

[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] pujolsk:
What do you mean by "locked and unrooted"?

My device is also manually flashed to B317 never was rooted but I have unlocked my bootloader.

Does it have to do anything with it?

Thanks

Nothing in the UK still on B200.
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] pujolsk:
OK, thanks, I suppose it doesn't have to anything with my bootloader being unlocked.

I have to wait more I guess.

Cheers

Why don't you install it manually?

As far as I understand from German forum it is very easy to do if you are on B200.
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] silverblack:
I did ,it broke gmail so rolled back to B200.
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] pujolsk:
OK, so it sound like it is better to sit and wait for final release or at least some confirmation from Huawei.

Cheers
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] silverblack:
Thats what im doing and to be honest Marshmallow isnt that different from lollipop your not missing much.

http://xdaforums.com/android/development/email-notifications-t3322813
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] pujolsk:
Yes, I know about gmail problems, but I never had it.

Did you do factory reset after updating to B321?

I agree about your statement about differences, I like scrolling which is much smoother in MM, and transition effects when you open folders. Besides those, the changes are only cosmetic, while some other phones like for example HTC M8 and M9 are much much different and better while running MM.

Cheers
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] TopperBG:
Don't forget about doze mode in MM!
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ionutzpaul61:
Good for you
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] rodlane:
And don't forget the app permissions management which doesn't exist in lollipop. It almost makes rooting unnecessary.
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] silverblack:
EMUI already has Doze its called protected apps its the same in Marshmallow.
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Blackwidow2016:
I just wish they would fix the gmail bug so I can return to MM, lollipop is nice but miss the smoothness of MM
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ralfbergs:
No, it's completely different.

What Huawei do is close power-consuming apps.

Doze is an extremely low-power state of the whole OS and CPU/HW, therefore it's much more effective...
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] TopperBG:
Confirm
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] silverblack:
And yet the settings are identical on both lollipop and marshmallow.

Certainly never noticed any difference to battery life when i tried it.
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] TopperBG:
Which settings, doze mOde doesn't have any settings?
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ralfbergs:
This is just the settings in Huawei's proprietary app... Again, this is in no way related to M's doze mode...
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] majaczos:
Thing is - Doze isn't mandatory. Huawei may just disable it and use its own solution.
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Gavin01:
im sorry to ask again but im not that clever, Ive managed to upgrade my phone to the latest firmware:) But i want to downgrade as im getting awful battery life and the phone is getting warm:(

I dont really understand some of the guides as i dont have root?

Has anyone got any tips on what i should do? i need to downgrade (without root) and then reupdate to latest again and see if it works any better.........

thanks
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] TopperBG:
Two questions:

1.There isn't LocalUpdate in MM? How is done local update ?

2. What root method works over B321 ?
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] silverblack:
I would wait for the Official OTA update of marshmallow.

http://www.huawei-info.de/p8-mm-rollback

With the 2nd update back to B200 i couldnt get the 3 button method to work so used the

Tap in dialer:

*#*#2846579#*#*

That worked and im back on B200 Lollpop 5.01
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Gavin01:
i keep getting software install failed

i downloaded Download GRA_L09_Europe_GRA-L09_C432B200 Full Version

and uzipped it and put it in the dload folder on both internal and external memory and still failing?

im on b317 now....

am i suppose to be using the rollback app?

now used the rollback app and still none the wiser

EDIT yep use the rollback and then the full version im now back on b200...................lets see what happens with thge battery now
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ionutzpaul61:
Before to flash b200 you need to flash b300.....
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] majaczos:
It doesn't mean anything - B317 was 'official stable' as well.
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] silverblack:
Was it an OTA as ive never recieved one.As far as i know it was beta,official then back to beta.

All i see is us lot installing it our selfs to try out.
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Gavin01:
Well I'm back on b200 now have loud ear phones again. And already at 1h10m screen on time with 75% battery left.... I'm already feeling it's back on track

[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] pujolsk:

[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] deraiz12:

[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] TopperBG:
Guys, can you even turn off the device ?

I can't ...
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] noraru:
no i cant turn of the phone is keeps booting on and on an vibtrates, only if i put it in fastboot mod does not vibrate
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] rndll:
For those still getting the bootloop of death, I posted here how I fixed mine. I hope this helps. :)
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] raider2k9:
to all, you have to flash cache.img also, because something trash can be in your cache, keep your phone do bootloops.. you have to flash all except userdata.img and it will work
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] TopperBG:
Of course I'd flash it already. BTW because don't work "fastboot erase/format cache" why ? Is that normal ?
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] raider2k9:
because it erase/format the partition you want to.. but you don´t know, if there have to be some files permanent available or not.. erase with fastboot can delete to much files, causing also bootloop.. therefore always user img´s via fastboot
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] TopperBG:
Thanks, it was logical if we crash on update of B313 to reflash boot&recovery from 6.0 ....

Don't ever panic and think, think, think guys.

Thank you again pall

Confirm - solution works !
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] rndll:
Actually my bootloop issue came from trying to downgrade from B191(5.1.1) to B200(5.0.1). Did you factory reset?

Glad I was of help. :)
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] TopperBG:
No I didn't reset but everything works fine.

It's so logical when you crash with specific fw (kernel, loader etc) to try to recover with same fw but... panic is the pain :)

ps: NOTE to every one - don't listen and read all this "soft un-brick" guides which leads you to old and ancient firmwares, try to think logical and repair problems with the last used FW !

[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] pujolsk:
What do you think, can I use this method to downgrade back to B200? My phone boots and works but I would like to go back.

There is no option to do local update, and 3 buttons combination doesn't work.

Thanks
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] rndll:
Fastboot flash the B313 boot and recovery .img to fix your bootloop then update to B200 full rom via microSD + 3 button method.
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] pujolsk:
I did flash recovery from B313 cause my phone was able to boot normally (I just want to downgrade), then I was able to get into the recovery without problems...but when I try 3 buttons method it fails at 5% always. The same was with stock B170.

Maybe I need to reflash everything including boot.img and complete the whole procedure again.

Thanks
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Gavin01:
How do you do that may one ask,?
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ionutzpaul61:

[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] majaczos:
You're confusing it with OTA. It has never been a final release. B321 isn't one as well - it's still beta.

Huawei service Italia said that the b321 will be the definitive update of Marshmallow for p8

Have someone ever experienced problems with the sd card? Quite often my phone alerts that the card is broken while it is enough to restart the phone to have again the sd card working. The problem is really annoying with only 16 gb of internal memory.

Apparently it is a software problem, or it could be linked with the brand of sdcard( samsung 64 gb uhs1)?
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] 00471:
im using 32gb kingstone, no problem what so ever
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] rodlane:
I have a Samsung card as well. No problems here. It's extremely fast when copying between internal and sd!
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] majaczos:
Do you have Marshmallow update? If so that's the problem. It's still buggy beta.
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Weldzar:
Actually I have Marshmallow, but I had similar problem with Lollipop. Thank you all, I'll try another sd card first, and after that I'll try to update to b321a or to downgrade to b200 ( battery doesn't go well too with this firmware).
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] 00471:
B321a is final release, it was wrote couple times, and yesterday huawei himself comfirmed me this info on facebook
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Weldzar:
Just another question: do you use SD card to install applications? Maybe the broken sd card error could be resolved using the sd card only as archive for music and photos..:confused:
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] pujolsk:
Do you have any info about the differences between B321 and B321a?

Thanks
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] 00471:
i was reading that in B321 wasnt enabled 64bit support besides other stuff, in B321a fixed 64bit, but i not sure
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] pujolsk:
OK, thanks. I will do full wipe and flash B321a tomorrow even if I have only one little bug found so far.

Cheers
[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] its the peanut:
I use Samsung 32gb (class 10 i think). Never Have problems. Maybe you formatted to a file system that is poorly supported on the p8.

Or there is something really wrong with the SD card, maybe you got a failing one

[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] 00471:

Now I'm trying to install camera from 5.0 by different ways, cause I think huawei can artificially lower the quality of fotos(in camera algorithms) cause they announced P9 and they want to show a tangible difference of quality.Maybe it's paranoia :D but who knows?

If I'll have time, I will try to make a comparison.

[Huawei P8 Guides, News, & Discussion] rodlane:
Turn "Enable always-on mobile data" off. Turn NFC off. Turn wifi "Network notification" off. Turn wifi+ off. Turn "Access my location" off.

You can turn these on if you need them. They are purely for convenience and they use large amounts of battery because they are always scanning. This results in your not going into deep sleep. Also try installing greenify. It implements aggressive doze without the need for root. If you have root, even better. It also activates doze minutes after your screen turns off as opposed to doze being activated after your phone is laying still first.

Disable all applications that you don't use,especially Google Apps that are installed as system apps. Unprotect all apps that you don't need to be running constantly. Examples are browsers, games, utilities, etc. Anything you use to communicate with people should be protected. Anything unprotected will be put into sleep mode and will stop performing background functions when your screen turns off.

Control your app permissions with marshmallow's new features. They are very comprehensive.

And turn off auto sync.

Indeed I dont us it much for calling l call approximately 4hours per month [emoji1]

First you can try to reset the device via Vol up/Power button and perform all options there.

Second you can download 321a and flash it manually and see if its better. If its not then maybe something is wrong with the device.
