After i try to go back from FRD-L04C567B317 (OTA) to FRD-L04C567B317 (OTA) via update.app on sdcard, the phone did not boot and i was stuck in e-recovery, it asked me to download revovery but if failed.

Luckily i could enter fastboot.

Yes i used M TWRP.

Here is some screenshots.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Gus194:
Yes it's marshmallow.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Yes the correct one.

Did you get use correct one?

I used b120

Good

Cool

Ota works even full firmware files does just can't downgrade with twrg

Yes it does posted a screenshot pages back

So what u think about it

Yes if it's for his phone.

Did you get bootloader locked?

Because you just need to flash twrp after you relock to not wipe internal storage and start the backup of m firmware if you have one.

---------- Post added at 08:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:01 PM ----------

Using twrp we can't flash l04 firmware in stock recovery.

Most likely yes I believe nougat starts with 3xx instead of 1xx

You need twrp for it
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] cranio84:
Its possible have a full ota of android 7 for FRD-L09C432, now i'm on a b131 flashed with dload method on sd, I don't have a twrp, i'm wait for code

Nice man.. thanks alot. Will download now. As always backup forst.. huhu
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] DigiGoon:
Okay, so I rolled back, and after that unlocked bootloader, flashed TWRP for M, and flashed BETA EMUI 5.0, but same problem, no keyboard upon startup wizard, no Home Screen. :/
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Strange does is exist in system if you browse trough twrp ?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Gus194:
No keyboard is normal. Idk about the homescreen though.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] DigiGoon:
It seems like everything is in place when I browse via TWRP file manager, maybe a problem with VENDOR and PRODUCT partition?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChrisChros:
Hi guys,

what are the differences between FRD-L09C636B120 and FRD-L09C185B120?

Can I flash both to my L09?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] cmk7128:
Cxxx denotes different cust. No, you cannot flash L09C636 and L09C185 inter-changeably, what model is your L09?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChrisChros:
thats the question. unfortunately i can not answer because my phone is not booting since i tried to root yesterday evening. The phone boots till the screen shows that the bootloader is unlocked and will continue in 5 sec. After that nothing happens.

Now I want to flash the stock rom to bring the phone back to life.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] DigiGoon:
Is there any other version other than B317?

And I also faced that problem of booting into eRecovery, but after unlocking bootloader, a factory reset happened which solved it. Everything is strange with Honor 8. :/
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChrisChros:
It looks like that this version is the right one for my Honor 8 EU Model
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
After bootloader unlock next time flash twrp straigt after unlock procedure by rebooting to bootloader mode. You won't loose all data on internal storage
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] DigiGoon:
I have no concern about data, I just want EMUI 5.0 get up and running. :)
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
You could extract launcher and manually push it after the flash.

I'll try a dangerous task ? pray for me ?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] DigiGoon:
I don't think its just launcher, many apps were not there I think, like keyboard also. :D :D
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Keyboard is missing by default. Launches however does exist. Bluetooth doesn't neither does nfc

Not your fault it's Huawei
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] manny18pr:
To manage the keyboard issue I had to plug an otg and plug my USB keyboard. I needed it to sign in to Google and restore the applications backup that I have. It took me a while to come up with the idea. But it worked for me.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Gus194:
You can also just download Google keyboard on your computer and install it to your phone with adb
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] DigiGoon:
You can also boot into eRecovery upon startup, connect to Wi-Fi and reboot device, you'll be automatically get connected to that Wi-Fi, and then skip Google Sign in. :D

I don't think so, the very first time I flashed the BETA, the keyboard was there, white keys, grey background, just like we get it in a Xperia device. :D
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Hmm u might be right. I do know that Bluetooth and nfc app is missing though. Browsed vendor image system and cust not existing at all.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
What you mean with it? Here its working

Only issue is Bluetooth (barely use it) and nfc (never used) so for me it's cool

Also I've updated twrp so it recognize vendor partition
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
And that's supposed to mean?

Can you please clarify which TWRP version are you using with EMUI 5.0?

can you provide link to download it ..

Thanks
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] HateB:
I tried to update my FRD-L19 but dload method didn't work. It says that incompatibility with current version. I'm on FRD-L19C432B131 at the moment. Shouldn't it work without flashing TWRP?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] biobio76:
well, I just downloaded it.... haven't tried yet... I have the L09C432B131, so different model but same firmware....

should work with stock recovery.... with TWRP you can't flash an OTA official upgrade.... so don't know why it failed to you...

is your phone rooted? do you have locked or unlocked bootloader? maybe this is the failure reason
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] HateB:
I haven't rooted my phone either touched the bootloader. L09 and L19 should be almost same? L19 is just for 64 GB model, am I right?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] biobio76:
so how exactly have you tried to upgrade??

please tell step by step what you have done
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
twrp can indeed flash official OTA. Doesn't matter if it's from updater app or full. I've done both.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] HateB:
I downloaded update.zip which you linked and it should be for FRD-L19, shouldn't it? Then I extracted it to Ext_SD\dload\ and rebooted to the flash mode with vol +- and power. It verified and installing text appeared at 5% and then the error appeared. I verified that the update.app was in correct place and I tried to flash it by going to phone and *#*#246579#*#* or whatever it was.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] biobio76:
I trust you, maybe TWRP can SOMETIMES do it.....but it depends how and which file you have into UPDATE.ZIP that you have downloaded.......depends also how updater-script that is inside the folder META-INF is done and what commands is sending to recovery.....sometimes MAYBE is working...but it's not a rule I tell you
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] biobio76:
well, you have done what I would have done......

I finally downloaded it, unzipped the UPDATE.ZIP and EXTRACTED the UPDATE.APP file.....

inside , together with all files ( IMG etc etc ) you can see two txt file (CURVER.txt and VERLIST.txt)

into VERLIST you can see which firmware the UPDATE.APP can be flash to/it's address too

since inside you have:

FRD-L09C900EMUI50

FRD-L02C635B100

FRD-L02C635B315

basically the FDR-L09C432B131 CAN'T BE REPLACED IN THIS WAY....at least it's not into verlist file...

You can try AGAIN to copy UPDATE.APP into external SDCARD(dload, but this time also simply copy this file into dload,

it's a (au_temp.cfg) empty file which it's supposed to BYPASS the VERLIST.txt

I have attached this file as zip file at this post.....download it. unzip it , copy the unzipped file au_temp.cfg into dload folder together with UPDATE.APP file....and try again to flash as you mentioned before by 3 button command......i'm going to do the same in 5 minutes ( i'm backing up my phone actually and removing root that I have at the moment
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Only time it failed for me on honor 8 was to downgrade
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] AL92:
i tried and it doesn't work for me, man :(
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] biobio76:
capito....

I suggested this way since I also have honor 6 and honor 3, old models I know, but this way was working on honor old devices/old recovery/maybe old android versions....I used it several times.......this au_temp.cfg ( who is basically an empty file ) was simply avoid the verlist.txt check while recovery is flashing the UPDATE.APP........at least was working in the past I did personally several times...

looks like on honor 8 / new android version is not working anymore......as said I'm finishing my actual phone backup then I will try to play a bit myself to see how to flash it.....looks like the only way ( if you guys have tried already the au_temp.cfg way), it's to flash only the umui5 system.img and the emui5 stock recovery that you get exctracting the UPDATE.APP file, then immediately flash by 3 buttons the UPDATE.APP file , this time since will find already the right system, the flash should pass throught
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] michelinoO:
Hi sir,

I have actually the same version of your fw:

FRD-L09C432B131 with root

Before update the update.app of thw emui5, i must remove root?

If i simply reflash the B131, should be works to put the bootloader without root again.

Thanks
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] biobio76:
if you have read above posts, looks like the pure flash via stock recovery is not working....

my idea it's to extract the UPDATE.APP file with an extractor , then flash only the umui5 system.img and the emui5 stock recovery that you get exctracting the UPDATE.APP.

FLASH those via fastboot.....

then immediately after ( without rebooting the phone but simply switch it off ) and flash by 3 buttons the UPDATE.APP file that you previously preparred on external sdcard, this time since will find already the right system, the flash should pass throught
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Shouldn't be easier to flash with twrp ? Well that might work depends if it checks your device build.prop though or recovery version

But that should work
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] michelinoO:
I was replying to the previous post.

I think is correct, I dont think that a bootloader of android 6 can boot the android 7 system

Thanks you
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] biobio76:
you already replied yourself...."if it checks your device build.prop though or recovery version "

in our case, doesn't matter if you use TWRP or stock recovery, the check on verlist.txt it's not find the "alllowed" running correct firmware , so the flash is not going through....

that's way I said we need to fastboot flash the system.img (should be enough ) and ( suggested ) the "stock" recovery.img_emui5

and immediately after try again the flash by 3 buttons.....in this scenario the verlist.txt check it's suppose to pass through.....at least I think in this way....
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
I only said if it will work if it does check device info from these files if it doesn't it won't work
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] chikess:
So is that c432 emui 5 update beta or final?

Gesendet von meinem FRD-L09 mit Tapatalk
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] biobio76:
as soon as you have verlist.txt file inside UPDATE.APP means it will performe the check, always.

at least, when you flash with stock recovery it does the check
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Beta. I believe final will have Bluetooth in it but I can't tell

What method did you use to install EMUI 5?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] manny18pr:
To install EMUI 5 I first used this tool to unlock bootloader and install twrp recovery

http://xdaforums.com/honor-8/development/tool-srk-tool-huawei-bootloader-root-t3470823

Then I downloaded the latest EMUI 5 beta, put the update.zip in the external sd card then booted into twrp recovery and flashed it.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] adriansticoid:
Oh. I see. You didn't take a backup first before flashing TWRP? Because if you want to downgrade, you should flash stock recovery again to use dload.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] manny18pr:
And how I use the dload method if I flash stock recovery
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] adriansticoid:
Refer to this guide.http://www.stechguide.com/honor-8-stock-marshmallow-firmware/
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] cranio84:
This method work only with stock recovery, if you are on twrp recovery this method don't work to return stock, only method to return stock is flash full rom with dload not full ota cause full ota bootloop your honor8, when flash full rom your device are formatted like hard reset, the only full rom available for now on honor website for European model are old b101

I tried to make a dirty work around to get su working. But I guess I missed one thing.

Since su.img didn't mount without a reboot (this should however be possible though

I made a dirty change to fake (data partition) to act like it's mounted but then I forgot to fix the cache mount point so it could mount the su.img properly. I'll try again rather soon to fix it. And hopefully will get root on nougat.

Gain root access on N. But it won't install get past creating boot

.img

If we don't move /su folders to / folder (which should be mounted by su.img) but if it mount su.img it will kill the installation progress and reboot.

Supersu could do that.

I could add the /su extraction from the original zip itself but first I need to see how we can make it work.

But I don't know why it can't mount su.img even if I set /data mount to another partition it just won't make it work. Maybe kernel is blocking it.

Hi! No, it's not possible to flash beta with dload. So, you must unlock bootloader and then flash with twrp. To turn back, you can flash B131 again with TWRP :)
