Did you see that? It could help us for the root.

Edit:

I tried but it doesn't work for me with Nougat
[Mate 8 General] dexz:
Currently I'm using C636B563 that's my original region but I personally prefer AL10 because of battery performance slightly better :)

Nice. I will try the link later.
[Mate 8 General] Leo_83:
Getting bootloop after rebooting... any idea?

Installation of files was succesfull, no errors in twrp.
[Mate 8 General] eddmecha:
did u format your data before hand?
[Mate 8 General] Leo_83:
Yes followed the steps one by one...

Edit: One thing worth mentioning is that I used the update_data.zip from the russian link, when I orignally installed Nougat this was the only file that worked for me.

Edit2: Redid the steps but used the update_data-zip posted by Sillanwali in his thread to update to nougat C432B560 but I get "Error: 7....."
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
After the step 4, I preconize to reboot the recovery. It's advised after a "Format data".
[Mate 8 General] dexz:
Make sure you are running unmodified stock firmware. As method above only patch boot img and push superuser files. Do not install decrypted boot img. It need untouched stock boot .

Once you completed the steps and reboot to system. It will normally bootloop twice then you will stuck at huawei logo about 3-5mins.
[Mate 8 General] dexz:
It's optional step but normally most of my experiments I don't even need to "reboot to recovery" but I will add it as optional step in OP.
[Mate 8 General] Leo_83:
It's just not working for me. I was on stock firmware, only unlocked bootloader, I did not install decrypted boot.img.

I left the phone for roughly about 15 min (one Fifa game) in screen, it doesn't get past Huawei logo and I haven't seen it reboot.

Edit: What about the update_full_hw.zip is that not needed after formating data?

Edit2: Tried again but these time rebooting into recovery after formating data as suggested by [MENTION=2875350]franzyroy[/MENTION] but it didn't make a difference still bootloop
[Mate 8 General] dexz:
Yes. That's the file we need to install (update_data_*.zip) at step no. 6

Yes. Doesn't make any difference. That's why I skipped reboot to recovery after format data
[Mate 8 General] Leo_83:
Aha thought it was just the update.zip file my bad *Hides in shame*
[Mate 8 General] eddmecha:
so u actually flash update.zip instead of update_data_hw.zip?
[Mate 8 General] misho_20063:
I setup All Method And Now My Phone Full Rooted 100% And All App With Root Working Well Very Very Thnx Man dexz Congratualtion Of All Owner Mate 8 Final The Root Is Full
[Mate 8 General] dexz:
I'm glad you got it full root. :)
[Mate 8 General] Leo_83:
Indeed I did lul :o :p

Working like a charm!! Thanks dexz!
[Mate 8 General] internetjlmb:
Since data is encrypted I think that you can't wipe via TWRP if needed
[Mate 8 General] dexz:
Why not try the first page guide? The guide will make your /data decrypted but if you don't mind to have /data encrypted it is fine. :)

Edit : or you too have issue with Bluetooth after /data decrypted?
[Mate 8 General] internetjlmb:
I only rooted the phone to install adaway and viper4android, I want to stay close to stock as possible. Once I tried to flash stock recovery but phone always booted to e-recovery I don't no why :D anyway it's just curiosity! Thanks for the amazing job with this easy root method

Edit: never tried first post method, but when I was rooted with SuperSU and decrypted data method didn't have any Bluetooth issues
[Mate 8 General] dexz:
You are most welcome. Thanks for trying. :D
[Mate 8 General] Eodzy:
My good man you have done a great job, thank you:good:
[Mate 8 General] dexz:
Glad it worked out for you. :good:
[Mate 8 General] frankiard:
I've followed the steps, but I have bricked the phone. Now, the main problem is that I can't even flash TWRP via ADB, because after connecting PC-mobile, and execute "adb reboot bootloader", it shows "error: device not found".

Besides, It doesn't connect to HiSuite either.

What could I do, before to take it to the SAT?

Thanks.
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
Bricked, you mean your phone is unusable?

Do you acceed to the bootloader with the buttons combo (vol(-) and power)?
[Mate 8 General] frankiard:
Yes, I can access to the bootloader screen (see attachment), but the mobile is formatted and I don't know how to begin in this case, because in this moment Data is formatted.

Thanks.
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
Yes it works, even with formatted data. So your phone isn't bricked... you can flash a TWRP or other via ADB.
[Mate 8 General] frankiard:
Ok, In this case, what firmware can I install in my Mate? I'm a bit disoriented :silly:
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
The last functional for you.
[Mate 8 General] frankiard:
Something is wrong, because I'm trying install the recovery "frd-twrp" via 'fastboot flash recovery frd-twrp.img', it executes well. But when i reboot to recovery (power button, vol(+)), it appears the traditional screen of Huawei eRecovery, and not TWRP.
[Mate 8 General] dexz:
Disconnect your usb before doing Power button + Volume Up
[Mate 8 General] frankiard:
Ok, thank you :o. In 'step 3. Make a Format data', It shows "Unable to mount storage" (in red), is that an error?
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
Yes but you haven't to care it.
[Mate 8 General] frankiard:
"Step 4. Install the B560 (just update.app) via dload from the external SDcard"

I don't know how to install via dload. I have unzipped 'update.zip' in folder "dload" in sdcard. But do I have to install it from TWRP? Option Install is only for .zip files...
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
No, you put the update.app file in the dload folder that you put on the external sdcard. Then you turn off your phone. Finally you use the buttons combo (vol+, vol- and power buttons) to install it. This is the dload method.
[Mate 8 General] frankiard:
Ok, I have installed the B560 (just update.app) with the method dload, but now it is stuck in Huawei logo... indefinitely...

:confused:

Edited: Doing power button+ Vol up, I access erecovery and make a wipe factory reset.

-With respect to step 7 and 8 install the TWRP 3.0.3 and Decrypted data via adb,

do I have to use these commands?:

>fastboot flash recovery Twrp 3.0.3 ??

>fastboot flash boot decrypted data ??

Thanks
[Mate 8 General] dexz:
You might want to check [MENTION=2875350]franzyroy[/MENTION] thread

Maybe we can do a thread for this TWRP 3.1.0-0.

Or if you want, I can do it. With all thanks for [MENTION=2335078]surdu_petru[/MENTION] and also [MENTION=4960686]OldDroid[/MENTION] .
[Mate 8 General] dexz:

[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:

When I could, I gonna try to change my Decrypted data boot by the stock boot, and also to unroot it in order to see if we can root again with the TWRP 3.1.0-0 without to restart from a fresh install.

Edit:

It worked fine with your last method. So perhaps possible! :p
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
. [MENTION=2570493]dexz[/MENTION]

I posted TWRP-31.0-0 here. I sent the link to [MENTION=2335078]surdu_petru[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4960686]OldDroid[/MENTION] to see if it's good for them.
[Mate 8 General] dexz:
Great job!
[Mate 8 General] speechless:
so with this new tuto i dont need to flash data.zip after flash superuser ?
[Mate 8 General] dexz:
Doesn't required anymore. Just straight flash twrp and install superuser. This method must be fresh stock nougat firmware to avoid any issue.
[Mate 8 General] Leo_83:
Oi a lot of development these days I see, do you still want me to test something [MENTION=2570493]dexz[/MENTION]?
[Mate 8 General] dexz:
You can try the new method if is working for you. :)
[Mate 8 General] speechless:
delete
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
It's really fun to have some guyz like you to help us. Really thanks!

Edit

:

In fact, no it's unecessary to test my new method. I think I can close my thread. The last of [MENTION=2570493]dexz[/MENTION] is enough now.
[Mate 8 General] speechless:
finaly easy root ty bro done in a few minutes
[Mate 8 General] dexz:
Thank you for trying. :)
[Mate 8 General] HassanMirza01:
I think i should also end this here as thats the same method which we first ever used for p9 lite... Nd made boots with it... Now i have edited unsigned boots nd injectors but no one working for mate 8... May be both devices have different boot partition.... Anyway, i think there should be stable kernel too...
[Mate 8 General] dexz:
which thread? This? I think you should maintain it. For those who need to install from beginning. As my method only after installed Nougat.
[Mate 8 General] dexz:
Do you need info on the boot partition? We can help you. Please let us help you.

PS : sorry double post
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
I talked to finish my thread but without to close it. My method works fine. Only it is easy but least than [MENTION=2570493]dexz[/MENTION] 's method... or identical. Because if people want to install the root with my way, they have to install a TWRP and the Boot_Insecure_B560_Fix-adb_dm-verity.img.

So if I compare

Method to [MENTION=2570493]dexz[/MENTION]

Unlock Bootloader

Flash TWRP 3.1.0-0 via ADB

Reboot to TWRP (It will take about 30 seconds or less to enter TWRP)

Install superuser_noverify.zip

Reboot to system

Go to playstore and Install phh's SuperUser app

My method

Install the frd-twrp via adb

Install the new_Insecure_B560_dm-verity.img via adb

Reboot to the recovery

Install SuperSU-v2.79-201612051815-EMUI5.0.zip from TWRP

Reboot system

Goes to Playstore and install Chainfire superSU

If I add the "unlock bootloader" to my way, dexz's method is easier... that's all!

So, so much keep one method. Mainly for the peoples, it's easier to flash a recovery rather than a boot. This seems less risky.

But it will not close! :silly:
[Mate 8 General] dexz:
:good: because you were saying want to close your thread.
[Mate 8 General] HassanMirza01:
[MENTION=2570493]dexz[/MENTION] even if i got boot partition info, i cant install or test any file on my phone... I have a injector ready but after injecting it, see what happen with EK for mate 8... Phone got bootloop... Also, then i think i should flash the injector with stock boot of mate 8 so that all files automatically injected by our recovery(it has no issue of data or any type)... So after that i will get injected boot ready... All this sucks at flashing... Its not flashing nd ending every zip file on error 1... I flashed mate 8 stock boot on p9 lite... But zips not working for me... Also, if u guyz have an injector only for mate 8, then thats great,,, that was the file which we dont wanna share :D
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
I misspoke!:D I wanted to say "stopped". No need to have 2 thread, but to keep it open for the reason that you said.
[Mate 8 General] dexz:
Can't you just share the EK that already injected? Then we can install and report back to you.

Of course we don't need your injector as that's your baby :D
[Mate 8 General] HassanMirza01:
Have u seen the thread of EK on mate 8 ?? There is link of mate 8 compiled boot with injector injected in it
[Mate 8 General] dexz:
EKv1? Yes I saw that but the EK based on B560. Mine is B563. So I got stuck at huawei logo.
[Mate 8 General] iltspvm31:

will this method work on L09-B100 ? maybe a link to update to 7.0. Please. New to this
[Mate 8 General] Leo_83:
It's working for me :) After flashing stock I followed the new steps and it worked fine and bluetooth is still working. One thing I noticed when I was in TWRP 3.1.0 was that the internal memory showed 0 mb thou.

Thanks for trying.
[Mate 8 General] dexz:
You can try to find your firmware using Firmware Finder. Download it from Google play.

Edit : [MENTION=4771907]Leo_83[/MENTION] there's a new TWRP 3.1.0 v3 . It will fix the data encryption.

And why B330 after the B560?

This update is for system version EMUI 4.1.

[Mate 8 General] iltspvm31:
Thanks mate, flashing via stock recovery ?
[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
You make it via dload method.

You extract update.app to the update.zip

You create a dload folder on your external sdcard

You put the update.app file in the dload folder

Turn off your phone

Use the buttons combo (vol +, vol - and power buttons) to install it

Before to reboot, I advise you to make a wipe factory reset

Finally you reboot system

That's all!

Unfortunately for you, you is forced to make a rollback to Emui 4.1 in order to tick this option as "ON".

You can no longer make it on Nougat. You had to tick it before to come on Nougat.

[Mate 8 General] franzyroy:
When you phone is turned off, plug your phone at your PC where you have ADB, press and hold the vol - and power buttons untill the phone arrives on a white screen with writings.

After, you use ADB like that. You begin to the step 5.
