[MENTION=1255102]letschky[/MENTION] do you have unsecured bootloader for b029? If I revert to b29, to have data partition backup possible? Or I do not need this for b29?

Thanks
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] letschky:
Unfortunately I have none for the B029,but you do not need it
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] letschky:
At the moment there is no official Ota update probably next month.

Data Partition Backup with Twrp?
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] Rmplp:
I have an Honor Note 8 Chinese version that was Rooted on a custom B029, I had installed play store separately and got rid of the Chinese bits and pieces by using text editor. I was using B029 in UK without issue. Here is how I did my update to B332 with Huawei stock rom. I now have EMUI 5 and phone is nougat 100 per cent working fine however root has been removed. I didn't need to backup phone and I didn't lose any data, but I have not had to do anything but I will have to re root for my own preference.

1) Go to settings, update and it should say no update available.

2) Download and install Hi Care app from play store.

3) Open Hi Care app, go to service and look at update icon, and click it and check for updates, if you have EUROPE UK set as your region it will say no update available. In Hi care app go into ME section, go to settings and change region to Asia Pacific and select China, the go back to service and check for update and you will see B332 stock rom update.

4) Go to phone settings and update and you will now see the update ready to download, It is around 2.6gb so do it on WiFi. Start the download and your phone will reboot and stock B332 will install.

5) Phone restarts running EMUI 5 with no root, but all my emails, I apps and everything worked perfectly and Nougat is running perfectly.

6) I changed Hi Care app back to UK region.

Hope this helps and avoids the risk of custom roms. Android pay also works fine however when I root it I am sure I will lose that function.

After installing stock rom my bootloader remained unlocked so will be able to root easily.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] ivanox1972:
but if custom recovery is installed it cant work?
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] Rmplp:
I had a custom B029 and this did work for me, but it took the twrp recovery away and my root access.

I still have an unlocked bootloader and get the Orange message saying phone can't be trusted (because bootloader is unlocked).

I'm not an expert and the first time I have posted here, I just thought it was with sharing my experience.

Safer to install a stock rom from Huawei than bricking your phone, lol I have been there!!
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] letschky:
I found a easy another way to go back from B332 to B017.

Download B017 Here

Unpack it and copy the unpacked UPATE.APP to SD Card in the Folder called dload

Power off the Phone and Press and hold all three Buttons Vol+ Vol- and Power Buttons.

The Update starts and wait to Finish.

After this Procedur Bootloader is Locked.

I am on B017 and the Updater app says Update to B332
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] moviehunter2009:
That's what happens to me... from 029 with twrp and root, made the update now im with no root and no twrp recovery..

The 1st post explains bow to flash nougat and root.

So if i only flash twrp and then flash su will i be ok? do i still have to flash insecure boot. img?
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] ivanox1972:
God to know boss. But how to go on b27 then, if this lead direct to b332?

Can you give me link to some custom rom, kang vip maybe, to try? Only b22 in rom thread here...
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] letschky:
I know only with the B022
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] ivanox1972:
Ok, boss. How to come from b17 to b22
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] letschky:
Yes first flash the Insecure Boot img,

then Supersu,

then Update data cn zip,

then Update.zip,

then Supersu again

and reboot
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] letschky:
Not because it goes directly from B017 to B332 with Ota Update,Except there is an update app from B022 or flash via adb System,Cust,Recovery,Boot.img from here
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] moviehunter2009:
Can you give some help... flash em from fastboot?
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] ivanox1972:
Thanks boss seems not so easy and bot worth.

B332 is much better then b320, better battery...

It is stable release when it goes on update OTA?

So just some costom rom is missing.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] letschky:
i think is the same flash in Twrp or Ota,but i it Root and it often depends.

without root works perfect
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] letschky:
No,flash it from Twrp
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] moviehunter2009:
ok thank you.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] ivanox1972:
[MENTION=1255102]letschky[/MENTION] I want to be on b229- Can I install b27 whole as dload/update.app and then this

2017.01.11 EDI-AL10C233B029 OTA

small upd to b29 same update.app?

or whole 2017.01.11 EDI-AL10C233B029 OTA as update.app
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] letschky:
So I have not managed to go to B029.

Whether you are on B017 or B027 is always the update directly on B332 made.

Since there is no B029 Update.app, it looks bad.

You can only on B027 go back with this Rom

Flash in Twrp,after flashing the Rom boot into eRecovery and Restore the Rom.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] ivanox1972:
[MENTION=1255102]letschky[/MENTION], is this usful, boss?

https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=807719&st=0#entry59095585

Look this, there is small file b29 I think from b27 to b29 and also big b29 file standalone?

Is this useful?

Bluetooth Audio (A2DP) not working with B332

Hi Guys,

Has anyone experienced this issue? my bluetooth was working with B029 but since upgrade, it has stopped working. I can exchange files via bluetooth but no audio. I have tested it with my car bluetooth and bluetooth headsets. Also barclays application in UK does not work any more it use to work too.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] moviehunter2009:
everything ok here with the Bluetooth
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] Rizwan Ali:
Thanks for your reply. Strange thing is, I have 2 x Honor Note 8, and both of them have same issue soon after the upgrade. I did not root, but used the automatic update after changing my region to China. I guess its called OTA but i am not sure.

Please suggest if anyone else has the same issue with bluetooth and barclays application.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] letschky:
Same here,no Problems
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] moviehunter2009:
I didn't root because i have some questions.. if you can answer it to me..

After i flash supersu for first time, why i have to flash the update data+ update. zip?

This 2 zips are the nougat rom? Because im on official nougat and as i remember when i was rooting in 027 029 and before, i only had to flash su and it was ready.. why this now?

what will happen if i only flash insecure boot, then custom recovery flash su and just reboot?

Hi,

yeasterday I updated to EMUI 5 - Nougat 7 (from version 6.0). OTA, hard reset as well. Disappointed from battery performance (I did hard reset as well) and non-functional lower screen-resolution (nothing changed after turn on "Low resolution power saving", still QHD, I want FullHD). On the other hand, a lot of new features appeared, it looks promising in the future. Hope final (non-beta) firmware version will come soon.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] jbfuzier:
B332 is the stable version, is is being deployed right now.

Do any of you have trouble with the dot case not working ?
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] renosj:
Advice

If the battery is important for you, don't install B332, its too bad, Android Nougat system consumes a lot of battery. And there is no way how to get back to previous version...
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] tiggrr1:
You can go back, read post 62. It should still work.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] renosj:
thanks for reply, but there is need for TRWP and thats the problem. There is no TRWP for EMUI 5.0.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] letschky:
There is a Twrp for Emui 5.0.

I use Twrp 3.1.0.0 from Honor 8.

No Proplem with all.

Or read the first Post
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] ivanox1972:
[MENTION=1255102]letschky[/MENTION] boss, to recapitulate:

Is there way to go back on b027 or b029?

Thanks a lot
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] letschky:
Yes with the manual from AngelDeath

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=71384420&postcount=45

I test this manual and works,but it takes very long.

And at the end you will see the update B332

Ok,there is a another way to go back to B029,with Hi Suite,

look Pic in Attachment
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] letschky:
I can see if that goes faster to go back to B029 with Hi Suite
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] letschky:
I go back to B029 with Hi Suite and i think it save the Full Update.app from B029 to my Pc.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] CptAwesomeTT:
No update on my note 8
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] letschky:
Ok,in 30min go back from B332 to B029 via Hi Suite

Is much faster than with the other method.

Fortunately, I still have a backup of B029 on my SD card,because I do not have to set up again
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] xIf22raptorIx:
Just a little question there, as the procedure for rooting is quite long and ... you know a bit tricky, i made some research and found people talking about this (https://xdaforums.com/p9/development/twrp-t3565703) a version of twrp for P9 that works for HN8 as they have the same chip (kirin 955) and manage to decrypt the encrypted data etc and with this one it seems you just have to flash supersu for emui5. So i'm here cause i tested it and it worked for me as long as for those who posted it and i was wondering if others would test it and maybe update the initial tutorial with this procedure.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] ivanox1972:
[MENTION=1255102]letschky[/MENTION] thanks boss but I don't have backup in hi suite form. Then I can do this and get pure sfock rom b29?
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] letschky:
I have an old Backup from B029 on my SD Card,not in Hisuite.

You can go back from B332 to B029 via Hisuite without any Problem
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] AngelDeath:
Root isnt hard at all, Mine is on b322 and rooted. The way I did mine is from complete stock I flashed twrp from fastboot (using the one in the OP) then rebooted into recovery (twrp) and then flashed the SU.zip in the OP by chainfire, then all you have to do is reboot, and in settings/apps make sure to make the Su a trusted app. Thats all I did and I have root.

Install Stockrecovery from B332 and go back with Hi Suite to B029.

Then you are in the original state with Locked Bootloader
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] ivanox1972:
Thanks boss

How to install stock recovery on b332

What is download method for b017
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] letschky:
Unpack the B332 Update.zip with win zip/winrar etc.

Search in the extracted Folder UPDATE.APP

Extract with the Huawei Extractor the Recovery.img from the UPDATE.APP and copy the Recovery.img in your ADB/Fastboot Folder.

Reboot into Bootloader and use the Command via Fastboot:

fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.img

fastboot reboot

After rebooting the Phone,plug in to your Pc and open the Hisuite and go to Update

He says you have the lastest version B332 on your Phone.

Use the Option in Hi Suite Switch to other Version and from B332 to B029. 1,74GB the rest goes automatically.

Wait to reboot the Phone and ready to use.

Download the B017

Unpack via win zip and copy System,Recovery,Boot and Cust in your ADB Folder.

Flash the 4 img Files via Fastboot.

Make a Factory Reset.

You are on B017 Stockrom with Locked Bootloader,not Relocked!
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] letschky:
Or install the complete B332 without root again and you have the Stockrecovery on it
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] ivanox1972:
If I just go to b29/ can I first get stock recovery and then hisuite b29? First to install ypur part1 of B332 and then hisuite?
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] letschky:
You need Stock recovery,install manual via fastboot,or flash via twrp as an image or flash in Twrp B332 and you have Stock Recovery on it.

Car bluetooth not working with Toyota prius 2005

Hi guys,

Has anyone experienced any problems with car bluetooth phone? When i was using B029 it was working fine. After upgrade to B332, car bluetooth phone does not connect to my Honor Note 8. I reset my phone to factory settings, and tried different methods available online but it never worked.

I had to downgrade again to B029 and it started working again.

Any suggestions? or shall i stay on B029.

Thanks for coming back to me. I have toyota prius 2005 model and yes i have this issue. I think that kernel in B029 is backward compatible whereas B332 is not. Something that can be improved. Additionally there is another problem with Barclays application that does not work with B332 but does work with B029.

The reason i am sure is because, i have 2 x Honor Note 8 and they both have same issue.

Stupid question :

What is the benefit of using this modified boot then flash SuperSU vs using an encryption aware TWRP and flash supersu ?
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] AngelDeath:
Actually this is incorrect, I have found a way, but I am still testing to see if B350 actually will work, currently the version I installed kills the sim card and you cant make phone calls. but it was not the complete "full" version. I am in the process of installing the "full" version to see if this might fix the sim card issue, but I believe it will not. I will explain how to go about it if anyone wants to after I do a few more testing.

With a unsecure boot its more of a perm root opposed to a soft root using the SU.apk. I personally rather the soft root with a secure boot.
