What is this C432B192? It doesn't exist here!

http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=NXT-L29C432

Anyway in this link, you have the C432B180, you could download it to recover the recovery inside.
[Mate 8 General] :
thanks. i restored my erecovery and dowloading now b192 (since my phone says it) and after this i will check for more updates - there should be 320 then... or smth like dis
[Mate 8 General] :
i decided now to go for the b192 but via dload. so i will make every update my phone says but via dload and not via ota - seems much safer for me.
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
Like you want! I think it's identical but do for the best for you.
[Mate 8 General] :
my update ends in ereovery, even from ota... something is wrong , again :D
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
Really incredible that phone! :p :confused: :silly:
[Mate 8 General] :
I also wondering how i can be on c432b180 but my TWRP backup is b170 ^^ and i should be on my backup rn... so **** that. im done ^^
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
:confused:
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
. [MENTION=6802227]EGOiST1991[/MENTION]

Your backup is the one of B170, however you had the B180 after restore your backup?!

Are you sure you don't sell it? Seriously, I would have a phone like that, this is what I'll do. Already my phone annoys me a lot, then if I had yours, sure that I'll sell it.
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
Because I doubt this phone, I almost do not try anything. As it works well as it is with this B560, I hesitate to install the B581. I made it a rooted version to install via TWRP. I do not dare install it ...

It would have been on my Samsung, I would have done.

If I was on a real change, surely I will. But with the B581, I do not think that's the case.
[Mate 8 General] :
Lol.

So i tried to install b192.zip via twrp; install worked, i rebooted - after 10 mins still the huaweilogo, so i set my phone in fastboot, install twrp again (was gone after the zip) and restored my backup (C432b170) - backup restored - all working fine and looks like before- i go in settings; about phone and it says C432b192 ....

LOL! :D I mean im sure that my backup is b170!! :D and not b192. But my phone thinks im on b192^^
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
I wonder where it keeps this info about of the version. It could help lot of those who have issue with "NRD90M test-keys". The installation writes the version but I think the restore doesn't write it, apparently, or not always.
[Mate 8 General] :
Istn it portable to take the 2.zips and install them with twrp 2.8 ? then install the new twrp via adb and im good to go?

or dosnt work install data.zip and update.zip via twrp?
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
It all depends on what rom you talk.

What about AL10 with b587 build ???
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
If you can make that, I could modify your stock boot in order that you can root your current firmware.
[Mate 8 General] ziro007:
Dear,

Which way worked for you can you explain in details please. And which firmware you have while rooting. Thank you..
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
The way is into the first post!
[Mate 8 General] natispain:
Hi. I received the update in the screenshot I attach.

This will unroot my phone or after update the root stay untached?

Thanks.
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
You should root again but it's not a big deal.
[Mate 8 General] natispain:
What boot and twrp have to use?
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
For TWRP, no matter! After the 3.1.x, they are all good.

For the boot, you must have the same like your current stock boot. If it's not in the first post, ask me to have it! In previous posts, you can see how extract a boot from your current firmware. If you have some difficulties, same... Ask me!

[Mate 8 General] :
Finally i managed it!

For all those who strugle to get C432B580. Use the SRK Tool to unbrick your phone - with C432B192 - then DONT unlock or root or anything like this.

Just update via your phone - then you are on C432B580 - you also can update to B581 (works great - much more batteryimprovment)

i dont want to root it now. since it works great again. The only problem i have is the "Lockscreen" - it can only use a Diashow but im okey with that, since i unlock my phone with my Fingerprint, i didnt see this often.

So after Months - im finally happy again ^^

I want to thank you guys for all the effort you put in helping.
[Mate 8 General] harryhase:
Does it works in step on step, or must there be some days pause between the updates?
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
Yes without issue.

Fulla and fast root for nxt l29432b581.

Hello, Franzyroy, this will be a large message but will help someone I think.

As you know, I got an ota update for nxt l29432b581. It was very annoying because I was trying to upgrade and at 10% it failed. Then the message appeared constantly in the bar above and in the settings app. At the end my phone resulted unrooted. The update was downloaded many times, then failed every time.

So I tried to update with an update.app from this page: https://www.getdroidtips.com/download-install-b581-nougat-firmware-huawei-mate-8-nxt-l29-europe/ It failed but reached up to 17%. This red 1 in app Settings continued to annoy me and I kept trying to update. In one unexpected moment it reached 100%. Then came the problem of how to do the Root.

I tried with your method with these 3 files: your insecure boot for B581, - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120734110, the TWRP 3.1.0 https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=71764543&postcount=2

and the SuperSu permissive, the last version from this page https://xdaforums.com/p9/development/root-supersu-2-81-emui-5-t3612258

It was my fastest root, 5 minutes and full root. I was full unrooted, installed TWRP via ADB, then the Boot via ADB, then I reboot to the recovery and installed SuperSu. That`s all.

Thank you. I hope other users can root this rom with your method.

If you do not mind I will share my experience in that forum https://xdaforums.com/mate-8/general/ota-update-nxt-l29c432b581-t3617110/page8
[Mate 8 General] freaked9:
None of the the supersu zip's are working for me. They all rebooted the phone during installing, with TWRP 3.1.0. The TWRP 3.1.1. is crap, it doesn't sees the internal storage, and also adb sideload is not working.

I could install the old SuperSU-v2.79-201612051815-EMUI5.0.zip file sucessfully, i hope i will get root now.
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
Fine!

:good:

Like TWRP 3.1.1, you can take this one! It works fine.
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
No!
[Mate 8 General] freaked9:
Worked great, thanks! the one i've tried had -0 after the version number.
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
Now you have the 3.1.1-1 which have to work better for the roms installations via TWRP.

How root my L09C432B581

Can you please share to me all files which i need

Does installing twrp via srktool delete all my files?Does i need unlock bootloader first?
[Mate 8 General] Boosik:
You can also use my guide to get root (and still pass SafetyNet as a bonus): https://xdaforums.com/mate-8/genera...s-root-nxt-t3619766/post72618844#post72618844

But if i unlock bootloader i will lose all my apps and data because all will be wiped...

How do you means OTA work if i root with your guide

www.facebook.com/groups/huaweifanclub
[Mate 8 General] Boosik:
You have to unlock your bootloader for all root methods. And my root guide uses systemless root so OTA updates will still work.
[Mate 8 General] weblinks:
unfortunately, settings has stopped

My Device : NXT-L29C185B580

I followed steps and successfully root the phone, but I am facing a problem after that in setting menu, I am getting error unfortunately, settings has stopped,

for example, If i want to set pin or want to go into developer setting or want to enter into security...

how can i fix that issue pls help:rolleyes:

I root using with supersu Chainfire:

Install the TWRP via adb, or SRKtools or still TWRP if you already have it

Install the new_Insecure_BXXX_dm-verity-v2.img via adb

Reboot to the recovery

Install SuperSU-v2.xx-EMUI5.0.zip from TWRP

Reboot system
[Mate 8 General] blinkt88:
Thank you very much your guide is very easy and work for me i check with app Root Checker and i have root access

So now i have root and can recive ota updates..

Does i need root again when i get new update via OTA or root stay.....
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
With this guide, you don't need to make all wipes, so the data isn't erased.

Try to make wipe cache & dalvik cache in order to fix your issue.
[Mate 8 General] weblinks:
I tried this from twrp, but its not fixing the issue
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
Weird! :confused:
[Mate 8 General] weblinks:
unfortunately, settings has stopped

I wiped cache & dalvik cache and reboot but issue still same settings section not working,

unfortunately, settings has stopped error coming.
[Mate 8 General] natispain:
Hi. I have a problem. I broke the phone's glass and now I do not know how to lock bootloader to take the phone to technical service. Can somebody help me?
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
I had the issue once, but I don't remember how I fixed it.

With srktools!
[Mate 8 General] natispain:
No way. Another advice?
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
For the moment, no. If I have an another idea, I'll report you.
[Mate 8 General] Phlox49:
I'm having the exact same problem with my Settings app on NXT-L29C185B580. It occurs after the installation of Boot_Insecure_B580_Fix-adb_dm-verity-v2.img. Wiping the cache and dalvik cache does not solve the problem.

Edit: Wiping the data doesn't help either.
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
Try to re install the stock boot. It should solve the issue, I hope. But normally yes.
[Mate 8 General] Phlox49:
Hi. I did restore the stock boot, which fixed the Settings issue and removed root. Installing Boot_Insecure_B580_Fix-adb_dm-verity-v2.img again still results in the broken Settings problems mentioned above. However, I was able to install SuperSU without installing Boot_Insecure_B580_Fix-adb_dm-verity-v2.img, and root worked just fine without the broken Settings. :confused:
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
Weird this issue! :confused:

Is it all the Settings that you can't go inside? Or just the developer options?
[Mate 8 General] Phlox49:
It's the same issue as above. I can enter most settings, but trying to enter Developer Settings crashes the app, and trying to alter the lock/PIN settings crashes the app.

If there is already a PIN on the phone, the phone will refuse to unlock after typing the PIN if I've just installed Boot_Insecure_B580_Fix-adb_dm-verity-v2.img.
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
Maybe an error in the modification. I'll take a look.
[Mate 8 General] Phlox49:
I noticed a separate file on your androidfilehost page called Boot_Insecure_C185B580_Fix-adb_dm-verity-v2.img that worked just fine without any of the Settings errors. I didn't see it before because it's not in the guide.
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
You can make with it. It should work without issue.
[Mate 8 General] namian_semazen:
Where can i get this "Stock boot" ? How can i give it to you?
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
On your phone by example but I haven't a lot of time to explain how to recover it. If I find a moment, I'll explain you.

[Mate 8 General] mankurt76:
hello. does it work in L29C636B585 stock fw?
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
Yes I think! :silly:
[Mate 8 General] ziro007:
I used your method to root. I successfully installed twrp and the insecure boot. However, installation of SuperSU failed and got the phone to stuck on the booting screen. Although I tried to use all available SuperSU versions. Luckily I was having the file to uninstall SuperSU on my sdcard.

Finally. I successfully rooted my phone using superuser noverify. I highly recommend having SuperSU uninstaller on your sdcard while trying to install SuperSU. Otherwise you will have to reflash your rom.
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
Good idea!:good:

SuperSU didn't work for me too. Some people never has issue with the root... and others have some big diificulties... like me for example... in order to root theirs damned devices.

Did you never try with Magisk? I have to test it in order to see if I can root my phone without to format the data partition.
[Mate 8 General] ziro007:
I tried installing magisk with no luck. All the problem I am facing now is not being able to connect to snapchat. I am forced to use the ugly capser as a temporary alternative. If anyone have an idea how to fix snapchat error on phh rooted android please let me know.
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
Are you sure it's due to the root? Without root, did it work fine?
[Mate 8 General] ziro007:
It does not work with root. Its not specific to this root. Snapchat is not supporting rooted devices. I want to root with Magisk because it has safetynet feature to hide root from those apps who don't support rooted devices.
[Mate 8 General] westlife2206:
[MENTION=2875350]franzyroy[/MENTION], do you have any ideas how to unroot and return to stock B581?

I want to relock but I can't flash the stock B581 either on TWRP or dload. Thanks, mate
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
What root did you use?

You have to uninstall the root app.

Flash the stock boot.img of your firmware version (B581 in your case)

Make factory reset

And remove your TWRP.

Finally lock your phone.
[Mate 8 General] westlife2206:
I used SuperSU, just factory reset the phone.

So now I extract boot.img and recovery.img from B581 and flash it with Flashboot?
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
Yes.

Hey guys, everything was working fine for months. I had installed Viper4Android and DolbyAtmos with this installer.

I have no clue how to root C432B581. Can you tell me what superuser should I download? Maybe I got bad TWRP (3.1.1.1 ?) Ofc with system (systemless root is useless due to no permission for deleting system apps)
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
You don't read my instructions!

The B560 isn't the Emui 4.1, but the 5.0. Maybe I should put like that:

You had to upgrade your system before.

[Mate 8 General] ubermorgan:
Hi guys. Just updated to c532b581. Might be a silly question but are the original instructions and respective links on this post still suitable?
[Mate 8 General] Leo_83:
I would go for Magisk "root" solution depending on why you need root. Magisk allow you to keep getting OTA updates to the phone.
[Mate 8 General] ubermorgan:
Root required for customizations really, not so much for updates.

So superuser doesn't work or doesn't work well enough compared to magisk?
[Mate 8 General] Leo_83:
Superuser works fine, both give you root access. I personally like Magisk better for the reason that it is easier to keep the phone update.
[Mate 8 General] ubermorgan:
Hmmmm. Well...if both give you root access but magisk still allows updates then it's a no brainer really.

2 quick questions.

-Is there an updated version of twrp for nougat/c432b582+

- what's the best root method for majisk?

There are quite a few posts for rooting and occasionally it gets a little confusing.

I have another question guys. Might be silly but I just don't know.

If I obtain my bootloader code when I am on emui 4 android 6 before updating to emui5 (c433b581). Will the bootloader still work but create problems? Or will it simply not work and I need to obtain another bootloader code with nougat?
[Mate 8 General] aaron13:
The bootloader unlocked will not cause problems when updating but have to be unlocked again after a software update. (use SRK tools, works very fine)

Don't forget to put oem unlock on before updating.

Thank you for your faith to my tuto.

Thank you to report me that it also works for you.

Few questions:

Did you follow all steps?

Did you install my insecure boot.img B560?

If yes at least to the second question.

Can I add you in the OP post as someone who managed to root?

Thanks again! ;)
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
For me, Titanium doesn't work to restore, I didn't test others features. Only the apps Backup/ restoring is important with Titanium. I think it's an issue with it, I have no issue with others apps, I didn't notice.

And I saw here & there that Titanium had some issues with Nougat.
[Mate 8 General] natispain:
Yes, I did all steps but I had problems from the beginning, as you know, then I dont know how I arranged the problems. I did very much things but finally I rooted phone with your OP.

However, I want to know if anyone could do full root.

Thanks.
[Mate 8 General] tarekcod:
no i didn't.
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
Ok

If I see someone whi has the full root, I'll think to you! ;) But I think it's due to Titanium, nothing else.

[Mate 8 General] purplefrozt:
is your insecure boot.img B560 compatible with L29C185B560 Stock? thank you very much for the response
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
Except the country, the phone is the same, you can put the firmware L29C432B560 on your phone as the reverse. To the origin, my phone was an NXT-DL00C17B197.

So yes you can.
[Mate 8 General] natispain:
Hi. I wasn't very happy because some apps wasn't working fine or no working at all. 3 or 4. And this morning I did fabric reset and wipe data.

Then I flashed your twrp, again wipe data but because twrp can't finish the wipe, emui recovery wiped it.

Then I flashed Super su from OP and two update files, then super su again and that is it.

I have almost full root. Titanium can't uninstall some apps but is only this trouble. All apps now work fine.

So I didn't flash your insecure boot.

Phone can be rooted without flashing that boot.

Thanks very much.
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
Yes but you flashed it the first time, right?

You wrote it:
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
Always without news! :eek: I don't understand. What's happening for you?
[Mate 8 General] natispain:
But then I wiped a phone a lot of times because of apps then didn`t work. There was a moment when root checker didn´t recognize my root. Finally I wiped twice and did everything but not flashing the insecure boot.
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
Now no, but the last time, you flashed the insecure boot.img, from that you didn't change the update.zip, still the B560, It's always the same. So what you have made with the insecure boot.img is always valid. You see what I want to say you?!
