If you want to flash the radio only, download a firmware.zip and unzip it with 7zip. Find the radio.img in the firmware and move it to your fastboot folder. Hook up your phone, and:

fastboot flash radio radio.img
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] LuneTech:
Hi. I was trying to install cm13 on my honor 8. I unlocked the bootloader, but while trying to install twrp recovery I think I deleted everything off the phone. The huawei erecovery doesn't work, and I tried sooooo many fastboot commands. I can't do adb commands. I can only get into fastboot mode. Is there anyway for me to get out of this? I tried flashing the system.img and boot.img from fastboot but it fails.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] gopinaidu77:
Was ur bootloader and frp in unlocked state ?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] LuneTech:
Yes. And it still is
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] gopinaidu77:
So u can still recovery your phone
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Lucas Napik:
Hi, i have the exact same problem...

Have you figgerd it out?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] LuneTech:
Yes. I installed a roll back update (something like that) by getting into the force update mode. After it finished, I had to then apply the full stock firmware. The problem was that I somehow put the firmware of another phone, because my model number was from a different Huawei phone.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] LuneTech:
trying to get back to stock

Hi. I got tired of CM13, so I tried to go back to stock. I checked a guide online which told me to flash 2 files using TWRP. after that, I lost twrp and now my bootloader is locked. What do I do? I manually did an update with the update.app file, and it says update success, but when it reboots it stays on the honor 8 screen, I waited for 25 minutes and it's still there.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Saythis:
Try going into stock recovery and doing a factory reset after you use the update.app. You'll have to unlock the bootloader again and flash twrp if you want root.

Restoring to MM using a full image will typically lock the bootloader.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] eksasol:
It happened to me too, it is possible you still didn't use the right image.

This is how I recovered mine:

1. Go here to download the latest firmware for your model: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=129406

2. Use the Huawei Update Extractor to extract files from the "Update.app". (Ignore the 'profile' drop down list in the app.)

3. Unlock your phone's bootloader.

4. Flash these four images (extracted using the tool from step 2):

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash cust cust.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash system system.img

5. Boot into recovery and do a factory reset. This is needed to reformat the internal storage (and make it encrypted I think). (Power+Vol Up)

6. Put the Update.app file inside the "dload" folder in your SDcard.

7. Boot into flash mode to let the phone flash the Update.app (Power+Vol Up+Vol Down).
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] LuneTech:
2 things, 1 is that there are 2 recovery files in the UPDATE.APP, and 2 is that I can't do a factory reset from the recovery, because it brings me to the erecovery and it doesn't give me the option to factory reset.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Saythis:
You need to hold VOLUME UP and POWER button with the phone off to get into the recovery to do a factory reset. Once the honor logo pops up, you can release the power and volume up buttons.

Recovery.img = Stock recovery

Recovery2.img = eRecovery
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] LuneTech:
I just did everything exactly the way you said. But it still stays at the honor boot logo. I don't mind waiting over night for it to boot up if I have to, but I've never had a phone take this long to boot up, even on first boot.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] hachamacha:
For a "brick" thread, it seems odd that the model is never mentioned so that someone can really point you to the right spot. If you keep going to erecovery, then it has to do with whether or not your cable is plugged in (likely you've been keeping it plugged in for your fastboot attempts, or that's a guess). I only go to erecovery with both up/down & power if the cable is plugged in. If I want to get to stock recovery (regardless of what the hell is in the "recovery" partition, TWRP, or who knows?) then I unplug it before trying any key combo from power off to get there.

Lastly, if you use this sort of thing as a template (I'm just going to use one for the frd-l09 as an example, but stick the right model in there for you) ::

So if you've got an frd-l04 then plug that in where frd-l09 is. It'll just look on the site consumer.huawei.com just above where the various country/variant breakdowns are, like US/ZH/HU/Etc. are.

Pick the one out that is closest to what it seems you want. All the pages are in the local languages so I'm guessing the .pdf that explains what to do is in the language you'll want as well.

Good luck:: Let us know what model phone you have.

More: Contents of first "intermediate" update.app is 8 image files. I'm sure the 2nd one that is specifically your own phone's version of b162 has a lot more files in it. I've not looked for awhile but I think it's 21 or 22 files. This is a two step process, first is all the crap that comes in update.app from the rollback page (just a 100K file which sets you up in intermediate state for rollback) and 2nd you find your exactly right b162 for your model phone, and pretty much repeat the process.

Yet More: One odd thing about the Honor 8: I've not seen it on other phones is the partition layout is not really "trustworthy" unless you really have gotten to understand it. There appears to be at least 3 or 4 places you can get to that I used to think would all have to be in the recovery partition, but apparently the Honor 8 works differently, so no matter how bleak your odds seem, .. maybe not. I got to both erecovery and stock recovery and rollback while TWRP was installed and it worked just following the directions from their website.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] gopinaidu77:
Agreed on this thing.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] tofclaire:
Thank you very much, you saved me and my phone !!!

I made a mistake: my phone was under android m and I flashed by mistake the rollback update (to go m from n), then my honor was bricked on bootloop, no recovery, no update by dload....nothing worked....

Your solution was the right one !! again thank you very much
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] eksasol:
Interesting observation with the eRecovery (recovery2 partition). So I have TWRP installed, the system partition modified and user storage not encrypted. I was still able to to use eRecovery to connect to WiFi and download the factory image and it automatically repaired the phone to factory state. I noticed it doesn't re-lock the bootloader afterward. This seems to be the easiest method to unbrick.

Getting into eRecovery.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] aktivate11:
hi! Or extract the files? sorry for my english
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] menriquez:
Ok after the factory reset (which is peppered with mounting errors)...

failed to mount /data (invalid arguments)

unable to mount storage

When I try to flash cust.img and system.img they both fail.

I cannot check what firmware I was on before I started all this, but I believe it was the latest one. This is a FRD-04. I flashed TWRP 3.1.0.1 erecovery and I can access it and fastboot.

I have tried various different things and nothing I do can unbrick the phone. Any help would be appreciated.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] MMS666:
have the same problem as you on my FRD-09.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] eksasol:
I don't have this phone anymore, but the easiest way I find to restore it is using eRecovery.

[XDA Assist] Starforce2:
so I need to change my idols 3's usb mode. The trouble comes when the menu only comes on when connected via usb. When I disconnect, it goes away. Here's the problem, I need to disconnect usb, to connect a mouse, in order to select the USB mode. The touch screen is mostly non functional, and I was never able to back up files because I could never get it to view files on my phone in any mode. I need to send the phone back soon. There must be a way to change the usb settings without being connected to usb, no?

Here's a bigger issue. My replacement phone, same model, 6045O idol 3, works great the moment I plug it in to my tower, I can see all the files in it, back up anything I want. That's great. Could never get the first phone to do that. First phone never needed any swipe to open/unlock, I simply selected none, second phone the none option is not even selectable due to credentials or something??? What gives...same phones, why can't I get them to function the same?

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] javiharis:
Hi, am using Nexus 6p and since beta version 2 of 7.1.1 i found that when ever i make a call, the phone goes to silent mode (silent mode symbol gets activated on the nav bar) and once i disconnects the call, the phone reverses itself to normal mode. I had sent a feed back to google after receiving Nov security patch, hoping the beta version has some bugs. With the new stable rom of 7.1.1 received 2 days before the bug is still there. Is there anyone facing the same issue and hope Google will look into this bug.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m.ryuu:
that is not a bug, that's just Android way of saying that no one else will disturb you when you are in a call

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] BradHP:
How are you V20 owners feeling about the phone now that it's been out a while? I'm looking for a new phone and the options with Sprint suck, so it seems like it's either the S7 Edge or the V20. Both have good reviews, but those reviews are always done after maybe a few days or a week of use, and right at the phone's release, so I wanted to get some real world opinions from every day users.

I have an LG G3 right now (came to this from a Note 2) and I've been pretty unhappy with it for a while. It was okay (but nothing special) for the first year, then really went to crap--laggy, restarting itself, losing data connection. So I'm a little leery of going with another LG product, but this phone does have my interest.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] ZachJohnson:
I had a Note 2 and 4 prior to the V20 here and I love this phone. Even before root, I thought it was excellent. I find it fast and snappy, it doesn't seem to carry the lag that Samsung phones do. And the second screen is pretty awesome, I use it way more than I ever used the s-pen (never had an edge phone, so I can't compare it with thag).

Having said that, there are a couple downsides. I don't like the lcd screen - Samsung's amoleds are far better looking. And I feel like the camera on the Note 4 was better. But otherwise I'm really pleased with this phone. It's a great phone in and of itself, but it's the stuff that differentiated it from Samsung, the removable battery and ir blaster, that put me over the top.

And now that we have root? Oh yeah, I would definitely recommend this phone.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] bishmaster5000:
I too shared the concern of lag after using a G3, but this V20 is one of the fastest phones I've ever used (owned it since release). It's still snappy, no weird crashes or restarts, battery still lasts 2 solid days, wifi is still stronger than my Note 7 was. The more I use it the less things like the lack of notification LED bother me, and I'm more and more impressed with the audio that this phone delivers. However I still miss AMOLED, if this V20 had an OLED display it would be 10/10 for me.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Nick281051:
Personally, both my dad and I want to throw our devices out a window. Mine regularly locks up, and both of our devices occasionally heat up, and drop 20% or more battery life in 5 minutes. I'd like this phone a lot if these issues didn't exist but as it stands they outweigh the incredible audio quality that this phone provides
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] reznorfan0:
I got the V20 when I had to give up my Note7. The note 7 was hands down my favorite phone I've ever owned, but the V20 is good. I also owned the V10, which was okay, the V20 is a vast improvement though. Good performance, decent battery life (not getting a secondary with charging kit would defeat the purpose), and the camera is pretty good (but not on par with Samsung as far as I'm concerned). I like the second screen, but it's a trade for the edge screen function. Honestly I would have gotten the S7 edge, but after the note 7 debacle, I refused to support Samsung this year. Will upgrade to the next note though as soon as I can.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] twistedvip:
That's interesting - did you use dirtysanta on your phone? If so, use the Konverged kernel. It helps significantly (using it on my H910).

If not, you can also do these couple of things to help you out - turn off/disable Lookout. That is terrible to have on the phone and drains battery like no other. Go into your developer options menu in Settings, change all the different scales like animation scales, etc. to 0.5x. There's a couple of other small things you can do - like disabling the bloatware installed on your phone. But those will help out the most I believe.

Twisted
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Nick281051:
Nope I already always disable all possible bloatware and my phone is stock. Changing the window speed also will not help because my problem isn't sluggishness, it's the fact that the phone becomes unresponsive.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] saulvg:
Overall I would have to say I'm kinda disappointed with the lg v20. Coming from the note 3, I don't know if I expected too much, or was looking to be blown away, but for the price, I expected so much more. If the phone would've been like $400-500 maybe I wouldn't be so disappointed. I had to send my v20 to lg because of the speaker problem, so I have been using a ZTE z958, a $50 go phone from att. Honestly I can't really tell the difference between the v20 and the ZTE. Not enough to justify the $800 difference. The only two things I miss from the v20 are the finger print sensor and FM radio. Think I'm going to stick with my ZTE. Luckily my wife got an iPhone 7 plus and she didn't like it very much and wants to switch back to Android, so I think I'm just going to give her the v20 and sell the iPhone 7 plus. Much more easier to sell iPhone and not loose that much money, than to try and sell v20.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] BradHP:
Thanks to everyone for all of the info.

I know this is the LG section so I might get a biased answer, but if I could get the V20 and the Galaxy S7 for the same price, which one should I go for?

Sprint has a deal on the S7 right now until 12/28, and I was told by a rep in the forums that the same deal is going live for the V20 on 12/29. Both will come down to about $6.50/month after the sale plus my loyalty credit.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] midmadn:
Coming from note 3, 4 and 7 - I am very pleased with the V20. Not rooted yet as I'm not sold that root will gain me much of anything and the more I read, the less I am interested in rooting. Bad battery life, no fm radio, worse signal, loss of sound improvement from quad dac and no means of reverting to stock unrooted.

I miss the look of the super amo-led a little bit, but I don't miss the screen burn on every samsung amoled screen I have owned or seen with many family members samsungs.

Love the second screen, sound quality with and without headphones. Happy with the camera using manual mode. Love the removable battery, sd slot, ir blaster, fm radio. The fact that I can disassemble and repair the phone if the need arises. Something the samsungs can be hard or even impossible to do.
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Darrian:
I have flashed my device probably 50 times at this point trying different ROMS. Yesterday I decided to give stock another shot, but now I'm stuck. I had to flash the stock recovery to update to Marshmallow after restoring my Lollipop backup. I'm not happy with it, but I cannot reflash TWRP. When I boot to bootloader the fastboot drivers no longer work. Windows device manager says it's an unknown device and the device descriptor failed. I can't even manually force it to install the driver for the device by picking it, because it says that the driver isn't for that device. I even tried resetting my crappy Windows tablet so that it would have nothing previously installed and then installed HiSuite, but the same problem there as on my desktop. I have also tried generic "universal" android drivers and sketchy Huawei drivers from a "how to unlock your bootloader" tutorial. I have unplugged it and replugged it several times, using various different USB ports (I have 10 of them, so no shortage there).

I can't flash recovery through fastboot because that isn't an option. When in normal mode the computer sees the device just fine as a MTP device and an ADB device, but when I try to run ADB commands they don't see the device either. At this point I am really trying to find any way I can root the phone, regardless of how sketchy, so I can use Flashify to restore TWRP and go back to CM13 or an AOSP. Does anybody know a working method to root besides flashing through fastboot? Thanks.
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] gopinaidu77:
There is none. The only safe way to root is to flash TWRP in fastboot. Right now, you can try to force update through update.app
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Darrian:
Thanks for the reply, but:

1. I'm not looking for a safe method, just any method. I've tried the obvious suspects already (towelroot, kingroot, kingoroot)

2. I don't need to force an update, I am on the latest firmware now. If anything I may have to attempt to force a downgrade to open up vulnerabilities, but if I go back to lollipop then I will likely have issues flashing cm13.
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] gopinaidu77:
Oh. But like I said, there is none.
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Darrian:
I have come to the same conclusion, but I'm still hoping if somebody has rooted it in another way that they will see this thread and share their method. Otherwise I may end up stuck on unrooted stock, which will kinda suck.
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] gopinaidu77:
Have you tried changing the drivers.?
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Darrian:
Yes
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Darrian:
So, I did not figure out how to root it without fastboot, but I did solve my problem. I dug out the cable that came with the phone, and using that cable my computer finally recognized it as an Android device when in fastboot mode. I don't know why it only works with that cable, but there it is, so I will have to make sure that cable never gets broken or lost.

Just wondered if anyone has any recommendations for a good file synch program for the TyTN? I'm looking for a program that will sync documents, photos etc between user specified files on the TyTN and my laptop. Kind of like Docs To Go on the old Palm devices (can I use that phrase in a PPC forum;) ).

I have tried CwSYNC from Cassioware, but it seems very temperamental and unreliable. Anyone had any experience of EasySYNC. Just want something that is easy to set up, and will keep my documents synced automatically so I don't have different versions on my laptop and TyTN.

[LG G Stylo Questions & Answers] Glut4mor:
Hope this helps

I've been researching how to unlock 2 phones I had purchased for me and my daughter for Christmas and came across this forum. In another thread on a similar forum for the LS775 - http ://androidforums. com/threads /help-rooting-lg-stylo-2.1044670/page-29 - the posts by Anthonykb seem to suggest that you can have shell access to many of the hidden menus within the phone. Might very well be worth the read and the solution you're looking for. His instructions seem very easy to follow (have to remove the spaces in the link - I'm new so had to break it up).

My own question is how did you get the unlock codes? I purchased 2 LG Stylo 2 LS775 phones from Best Buy because their website said they were unlocked. Being a cell phone novice, despite them being virgin mobile phones, I took the Best Buy website at face value and a friend said he read some time in 2015 they started manufacturing them unlocked. So here we are after Christmas, and the 14 day return period and I find they are actually carrier locked to Virgin and Virgin Mobile has been very uncaring of our situation to say the least and refuse to supply the unlock codes unless we pay for service for a year despite me asking nicely as websites have advised lol. If their service was worth a crap here where I live I'd probably just switch from Tracfone where I currently have an account. So not wanting to wait a year to use our first smart phones, I am searching for a safe and inexpensive way to unlock them. I saw all the unlock websites but they seem very fishy. I haven't even activated the phones yet as I'm sort of at a loss as to what to do at the moment. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
