is there another file host like mega or something?? AFH is pure garbage
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
Well I know that :)

It's just my regular job which take loo much of my time.

Latest on the weekend everything should be online (updated Thread with Links)

I have no problems with Android Filehost. I am happy to have a lot of place there to upload my Roms and everything.

It takes me not more than one hour to upload 1.6 GB.

But there are necessary information I have to post for the Rom. And this I can do just in my free time.

I would not like to give the Link for the ROM before Thread is up to date.

Thanks for your understanding :)

If you are on the CM 13.0 rom, do you need to flash boot.img en system.img from the stock Huawei rom in the bootloader or can I just clean flash this zip file in twrp over the CM 13.0 rom and than boot it?

[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
Hello all together, I forgot to write in OP - Phone use default in Phonemanager "Performance" - please change this manually to: SMART
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
Save Battery:

NFC (with Android Pay) ist enabled by default - disable it and enable it only for the time you need it

VoLTE is enabled by default - disable it, if your mobile provider dont support it - but if your provider support it, leave it enabled cause then it saves battery.

Location Settings (menu: scan settings) disable WLan and Bluetooth Search while Wlan and Bluetooth is disabled, Navi Apps are working also without this setting.

Phone Manager/Akku

In "Power Plan" Performance is enabled by default - change it in Akku-Manager to SMART

With "auto app-launch" (if you have installed) you can disable Apps which you use just sometimes - but let every app start, which I have written in OP Point 7

Bluetooth enable it if you use it and disable it if you dont need it at the moment

Hello... I installed the first version of Arrow.. If after doing the various wipe I do the flash of the risk V2 the brick?... Thank you... sorry my english I am Italian...I read the first post but I am not very practical to install via ADB with PC...Thank you all
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
Which official Huawei Stock Firmware did you have before flashing V1?

Which model (GRA-xx) do you have?
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] nomadcrysis:
I have GRA-L09 and the stock firmware before the V1 is B317 but I have not installed xposed...Thanks for the reply.
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
B317 is very old Firmware.

You must update to b370 and after to b398. If you install this Rom based on your b317 your battery life would be very bad.

If you need the Link for b370, tell me
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] nomadcrysis:
I understand... so I have to install the latest stock firmware and then switch to the V2... thank you very much.
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
Yes, that's right. But if you are on the Rom v1 you need the Stock Recovery (which can be flashed from K-Settings) and it's little bit different if you used Magisk (old) Edition
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] nomadcrysis:
I have the classic edition...so the problem is only the battery?
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
No, not only - please do the steps I have written in OP Point 3) Installation Guide - klick to show content...

Bluetooth, NFC, Modem, Push Notifications - all such things cannot work properly if you have in the background b317 with a system from b398 - missing all updates between
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] nomadcrysis:
I understand I expect a nice job to do... I will follow your instructions... thank you and apologize my English.
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
Never mind, my English is not better cause I'm a German :)

But note:

The biggest misunderstanding is - when people think...

If I am on b370 and install a Custom Rom which is based on b398 this will update my Firmware to b398...

It's not true. A Custom Rom on Huawei Phones brings only system, cust and boot.img.

But it can't update Modem and Firmware specific drivers which are on places where they can't touched by Custom Rom.

This is perhaps different on other devices like Samsung (I don't know)

But on Huawei your Stock Firmware should be nearly on same Number than Custom Rom is based.

Having b317 with a modified system from b398 is discrepancy which gives you a bad experience for the Custom Rom.

And then people meaning the Rom would not be good... :)
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] nomadcrysis:
Just all clear... when I have a little more time I will do all the steps to properly install the V2...
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] pedromaiaz:
hi there mates, soo i do have v1 classic with xposed, to update to v2 i do have to install stock recovery , uninstall xposed and then flash twrp?....right?

Rock On mates!
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
If you have Arrow v1 classic - read 3) Installation guide for the MagicArrow v2 from OP = Post #1

0) Backup your stuff from internal memory (folders DCIM, Download, WhatsApp etc), make Backup of your Apps - further information 3) in OP

1) Uninstall Xposed Framework (use K-Settings - Xposed install (you can click and it says you install - but it means: if not installed, it will be installed, if installed, it will be uninstalled)

2) wait for Reboot (10-15 min)

3) Got to K-Settings /more settings /flash Recovery - flash official (= Huawei Stock) recovery

4) Copy unzipped update.app and meta-inf (from the update.zip - http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G985/g104/v88316/f1/full/update.zip ) to the root directory of your external SD in the folder with the name dload

5) Start from restart menu to Recovery

6) In Recovery make 1) Wipe Cache Partition 2) Factoryreset

7) Restart phone - but dont wait - soon the screen is black press Vol+ and Vol- (in the middle) down until phone restart to EMUI Software Installing - this will update your Background-Firmware to latest b398

8) Enable Developer Options /in it: USB Debugging - enable in Settings / settings "unknown sources"

9) Flash newest TWRP https://dl.twrp.me/grace/twrp-3.1.1-0-grace.img

10) Setup your TWRP (allow system modification, look into the other settings tabs and configure it to your needs)

11) Use Wipe /ADVANCED WIPE

12) Wipe: Dalvik/Art - Cache - Cust - data - system

13) Install MagicArrow v2 - Reboot without wipe dalvik - wait until Setup starts (about 10-15 min)

14) Setup your phone - and READ OP FOR IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR CLASSIC OR MAGISK EDITION (which one you have installed)!

I already installed V2 over v1 after i get lost in the instructions and it works fine "I guess" .

[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] itomx:
Already two full charging and the battery quickly discharged

Can not stand me one day

The V1 was better
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
I would say this is not right. It occurs only if you flash it over v1 even with Fullwipe.

Because it is an important step to go back to Stock Firmware after v1 - update to b398 if you have L09 and then make a Fullwipe and flash v2.

I have written in OP (Post #1)
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
Which Phone model do you have?
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] nomadcrysis:

[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
Sure, sorry, you told me already..

I think you can upgrade with the steps I have written in OP directly to b398 with 3 Button Method (not local update)

I think you must not to b370 between.

But if you did, no problem. After update to b398
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] nomadcrysis:
Ok understood... thanks for the explanation... maybe it would be better to update with the method of the 3 buttons to B370 and with the same method to B398...
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] itomx:
Yes, I did everything from A to Z from your OP

The rom is very stable but the battery is worse than version 1

Maybe need more loading [emoji6]

3.5h???

Now a have 4.50h and on V1 5.5h of display
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
Yes, you can do! I think you can go directly to b398, but you can also make the step with b370 between. But then Bootloader get maybe closed.

This doesn't appear if you use directly b398.

Don't forget, you need Stock Recovery before (instead of TWRP)
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] nomadcrysis:
Obviously as instructed... thanks for everything and then I will write impressions.
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tim.Good:
Hello dear Tecalote. Thank you very much for this rom. We respect and appreciate your work.

Only a couple of questions. On the mobile network icon it always shows 4GLTE and when I go "Mobile networks" "Preferred network type" and turn on 3g/2g or only 3g, it constantly shows 4G . How to fix it?

And how can I delete some standard themes.

Sorry for my bad English.
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
Hello :)

For changing mobile Network (WLan must be switched off) you must

1) disable VoLTE

2) Enable 2G first = you will see no 4G LTE, but only E

3) If you change it from 2G to 3G only, you will see 4G but without LTE - that means it gives you 4G even if you don't have 4G normally, if it is available. If it is not available, you have 3G/2G then (only on places with bad connection) .

4) Same with 2G/3G automatic

With 2G and 3G VoLTE is not available

5) If you change it back to 4G you see 4G and LTE

6) Now you can enable VoLTE again

It is because of the implementation of VoLTE, which is normally not available for many regions in cust. (even not if provider support it) On Stock Firmware b398 you have not the User Switch to enable VoLTE with cust 432.

I enabled also 4G for regions (where it is available) but not permitted by cust. Then you cannot get it, even your mobile provider support it, but its not allowed by phone cust...

Due to my modifications it is like it is. But it works anyway and you can have always 4G, if it is available, and you can have VoLTE, if it's available and you can make IP Calls, if you are connected to WLan anywhere.
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tim.Good:
Thank you very much. But one question more. And how can I delete some standard themes?
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
You can delete themes in /system/themes but don't delete the one which is called Default.

But the Rom is based on b398. So I am wondering if it really works good for you? How is battery life?

Here is the modem-list:

B370	Baseband-Version 21.600.23.00.010

I have seen you had CM installed. One OT question: I have a German User which like to know how to go back to Stock Firmware. He like to try my new Rom. Since I was not on CM I am not sure. Is it possible to flash Stock Firmware over CM for going back - if he has no TWRP Backup from Stock?

Btw: I would also like to know your impression from CM. Thank you for your help :)

A little problem with root

Hi! I wanted to thank you for the rom. It's great! But I have a little problem with it: I have an app (Pokemon Shuffle Mobile) which doesn't let me play because it detects root. It doesn't happen on Pokemon Go or other games, but only on Shuffle for now.

I have Magic Arrow, how can I "hide" root? With the classic edition I had before, I installed hide my root and it worked but it doesn't now.

Thanks in advance.

[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
Important is

1) Installing the Rom

2) Enable USB Debugging

3) Install Universal Safetynet Fix

Look if safetynet is green

4) Install the Apps and the Game - not before safetynet is green.

If you open an App before safetynet is green - it don't bypass it anymore.
[Huawei P8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tecalote:
You can try to update to b391.

There are two downloads available, I don't know which one would be Flashable with dload method (required: Huawei Stock Recovery /no TWRP)

http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G985/g104/v88357/f1/full/update.zip

http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G985/g104/v88229/f1/full/update.zip

After update to b391 you should make a Factoryreset and Wipe of Cache Partition with Stock Recovery.

Then you can flash the Rom (as guided in OP)
