That's interesting. I did a quick Google search and that appears in a few build props from different Huawei devices... so it would seem that a bunch of Huawei phones have this error.

Huh, weird. Must not really affect anything if it isn't causing problems for a bunch of people then.

I went ahead and changed it anyway :confused:

I unlocked my bootloader and rooted my phone, will that prevent me from getting the OTA of nougat? please someone answer ty
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] firedrag:
yes it will prevent you of getting OTA. I tried it. But you can use the following method to install nougat manually:

I tryed to install revolution recovery via adb, install seems ok but after reboot in recovery mode I have always huawei stock recovery...Now I'm on Nougat b342 beta...any fix?

Edit: Finally I install twrp...but some problem with Supersu...I tryed r255,v2.79r3 via Sideload but it show me impossible to mount data error....help me.

Thanks for reply...After phh r255 installation I have data error in recovery,I reboot but no Supersu app in my device...i rollback to MM I'm waiting for stable Nougat twrp.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] jarebear603:
Have you actually been successful at getting SU installed and granting access to apps? I have tried sideloading and straight install from external SD card then install Phh's app and can't get apps to grant access. I have the p9 lite recovery installed (the latest one) but it always randomly reboots when i'm in recovery after about 5 seconds. I get it to work sometimes but when it does work it won't properly mount internal SD.

---------- Post added at 02:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:07 PM ----------

I have the sources synced for our device but I have never built a recovery so I'm not sure whats involved to get it to boot with nougat. I keep an eye on the OpenKirin git repo but berlin isn't updated that often. I see a few commits related to nougat but not sure if they are what's needed for a nougat bootable recovery.

Cannot boot to recovery!

---------- Post added at 12:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:35 PM ----------

How did you mange to boot to twrp??
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] :
You can decompile P9 lite kernel and replace kernel and see if it works better. You need full omni source code to compile twrp so you better get it.

---------- Post added at 09:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:50 PM ----------

You need to wait for developers to fix the decryption for data. The reason why u get failed to mount is due to encrypted data partition and the twrp version can't decrypt your data partition.

[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Hold volume down and plug in cable and see what it tells you
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] SRI HARI RAJAN:
first of all thx for answering .

i tried that and it shows

"your phone is unlocked and cant be trusted

your phone is booting now..." but also sometimes it shows the above msg and tries to boot but dies due to drained battery

the above msg is showing since yesterday(which i mean the phone is bricked) thats y i left the battery to die to try something else but today that itself become a big problem.

if you can't access bootloader, then you are in trouble
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] SRI HARI RAJAN:
now my problem is that the phone is not charging......first i need solution for this..........whenever i plug in charger the led notification light flashes red....im unable to confirm whether its charging or not.....or is there any meaning for the flashing red?..........pls help

and for a record since its bricked yesterday i left it untouched so when i see today morning its turned off ,and when i tried to power on, it didnt powered on and flashed red led notification light(this is where the problem started)
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] SRI HARI RAJAN:
i also planned to leave it whole night but can u tell me how long it will take(approximately)?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] SRI HARI RAJAN:
i dono how to answer the question aptly but ill try to explain what happens in best possible way.

1.since yesterday phone freezes with the caution msg about unlocked bootloader.(charge was around 70)

2.but now it cant even do that ,when i power on,it flashes red led once(indicates no battery) and turns off.if connected to power it flashes red led in an interval of 3 secs and shows the caution msg about bootloader and freezes still.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] thilak devraj:
if it doesnt charge for a long time, go to service center and ask them to replace battery
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] SRI HARI RAJAN:
doesnt unlocking bootloader voids warranty for everything?....if yes means will thery replace battery for free?

If you want to install a custom ROM, make sure you flash TWRP provided in the ROM's thread.

Hi guys,

for the first time I bought a non-flagship phone and I'd like to Root this one too.

I have seen that there aren't many great Custom Roms.

Is it possible to root the 6X after upgrading to Nougat or is it possible to update to Nougat after rooting and still keep root?

I am sorry I didn't read all the thread and directly posted my thing.

I have a Honor-6x BLN-L21C185 which doesn't have FM radio in (it had it once) but after I used the Firmware finder to upgrade to 7.0, I lost FM radio and now my device also doesn't show any OTA updates, it's security patch date is stopped at April 2017.

Since I don't want to stay on 6.0 so I think I'll need the TWRP backup files for my device too.

Some body show me a way to root my honor 6x BLN-L21C185, but let me know first whether it is possible to roll back to EMUI 4.1 6.0.1. Any out there has the flash able backup of the B130 or B131? I wish to root and then go back to B130 or B131 and then OTA update my device.

What are the rooting tools BTW for Honor 6x?

Hi guys,

Sorry for the noob question but is there a way to root, and still receive OTA updates?

I just want to install an ad blocking hosts file. I don't want to install custom roms yet.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
You will get OTA but wont be able to install as with root, you modify the boot image and also ota won't Insta if twrp is there.

So to be able to install OTA, you need to unroot, flash stock boot, stock recovery then download the OTA and install.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] cowscrubber:
Thanks for the answer. So there's no way to change hosts file without losing official updates? Can I install the update manually?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
Yes. You can always use dload method to flash the full firmware for upcoming OTA but that will relock bootloader and replace twrp with stock.

No way to change host file without root
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Alex19Gam:
if i do that to get OTA, the new update will lock my bootloader? or will lock only on dload mode?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] shashank1320:
OTA will lock the bootloader and also won't Install on rooted, TWRPed phone.

You will have to unroot it, flash stock recovery, stock boot before you download and install OTA.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] aparker56:
I was on 6.0.1 MM and was trying to downgrade to 5.1.1 Lollipop. One tutorial told me to enable USB debugging, disable OEM unlock, and then flash TWRP through Odin. After doing this, my phone won't turn on or go into recovery mode. It will only flash the charging screen with red letters saying "custom binary blocked by FRP lock" and go into download mode. When I try to flash stock firmwares from SamMobile using Odin, I always get the FAIL message. I have tried every USB in my house and every port on my computer. I keep trying to download alternate 6.0.1 firmware off SamMobile, but the website is not downloading anything to my computer for some reason. Please help! :eek:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] koop1955:
You cannot downgrade from 6 to 5.11, Samsung has blocked that.

You can download the latest 6.01 TAR from here and flash via Odin: https://xdaforums.com/sprint-galaxy-s6/general/guide-links-files-update-root-restore-t3366862

That should get you back working.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] aparker56:
I'm trying to download this and the page just keeps saying " waiting for www.androidfilehost.com...." but not doing anything. I'm using chrome and I don't have an ad-block extension installed. This seems to be the same problem with downloading off of SamMobile. Any advice?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] koop1955:
I just downloaded and it worked fine. Android File Host will always be faster and I grab the TAR files off of SAMMOBILE and upload pretty much within 24 hours.

A couple of things to try:

1) You are trying to download to a computer, not to your phone, right?

2) If so, restart your PC. Simple and it often fixes things.

3) If you are on Windows, try using IE or Edge. I am a Chrome user as well, but you might have something going on with your browser.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Augustoandro:
Use Dr Fone for pc to root your phone.

Install Dr Fone on your pc.

Connect your pc to internet and let it be till the whole rooting process is completed.

Connect your phone to pc using usb cable with USB debugging enabled.

Open Dr Fone.

There would be a option to root phone in the Dr Fone window, click it.

It will take a few minutes to detect your phone and find appropriate rooting solution.

Once done, click the root button and wait.

Congrats, you have a rooted phone now.

If the above steps fail, you can try some other rooting tools like Kingoroot, Towelroot etc.
