[MENTION=7295200]ChinHon[/MENTION], I've got a question regarding magisk subject touched recently - due to some kind of magi(s)k way you can pass SN ;). I asked about it at magisk forum and got such an answer (about my questions and magisk log presented):

Do you know anything about this "logging disabling" in our/Huawei devices ? I don't know what is it about but... sth probably is going on. I tried to look into log window in 3CToolbox appk and can see... nothing, whilst on samsung phone in the same place a lot happens (intensive scrolling of messages). I tried to catch logcat for a while and it seems to be full of error messages - I don't know how to interpret them.

I submit my magisk.log and logcat excerpt - does it say anything to you, comparing to your device ?

magisk log: https://pastebin.com/BZbSfKFz

logcat: View attachment log1.zip
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
I'm sorry. I don't know anything about that. I'm not a real developer. I'll keep testing all the options until I can. I then share the positive results with interested users.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] jackulus:
A found a scrap of knowledge about passing SN check on our devices and I'd like to share it to anyone interested in. Unfortunately, I don't know how to keep this method working after reboot - at this moment it should be repeated to pass SN check again. If somebody solves this puzzle, let me know, pls.

System logging is intentionally blocked on our devices, it can be activated through hidden Project Menu. In general - it works. Unless you reboot the phone - in this case new settings not only are not applied but are reset/unchecked again. So, Magisk starts to properly hide rootness of the phone just after setting these option (no reboot). If not - check the "magisk Hide" option in Magisk's settings or set it Off and On again. In the log, you should see section representing start of hiding processes.

Now you are ready to check SN... :)

[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] anixon:
UPDATE: I SOLVED this, I just went ahead with the steps. A couple of notes for other people that might be confused like I am.

1. After the restore in TWRP the bootloader was locked... so I had to unlock it again to flash the stock restore.

2. After the stock restore, I left the bootloader unlocked and the phone rebooted into the recovery rom. As soon as I got in, then it prompted me to update to B110 FULL. I said yes and the phone downloaded to my SD card and reset. Then it asked me to update again to B182 and I said YES again.

3. After I was at B182 then i fastboot again and locked my bootloader and everything is fresh as new.

THANK YOU

-----------------------------------------------------

My p8 lite 2017 is bricked. It's PRA-LX1C432B182 originally.

I originally unlocked it and rooted by installing SU through TWRP on the stock Rom. I noticed that Google Apps was missing after the bootloader unlock reset. So I tried to install GApps and was getting GMS error. At that point I decided I wanted to go back so I reversed my steps.

- Reflashed a stock recovery from B110 and locked the bootloader. At that point my phone was frozen at the Huawei Logo.

- Then I flashed B110 system, recovery, and boot

- Then tried to do a factory reset and it's always hung on 99%

CURRENT STATE of PHONE:

- eRecovery boot loop

- fastboot ok, bootloader unlocked, FRP unlocked

- recovery access but cannot Factory Reset (sticks at 99%)

I was going through the steps outlined below and wanted to double check with you guys my situation. Can I move on to fastboot flashing TWRP if I'm not able to do the stock recovery factory reset right now? Also, is this the fastest and easiest way to unbrick from where I am - I have heard suggestions in other threads that I might just be able to Fastboot flash system, boot, recovery from a rom....? although I guess I did that with B110 without any success.

How did you update firmware version having root?
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
So far, all updates have been done with root on all my huawei and honor devices.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] andreyshch:
So you just pressed the update button while having root and twrp recovery on your device?
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
Oh no, TWRP must of course be exchanged for stock recovery. Otherwise the update will abort.

Hey! A few days ago I rooted my P9 Lite 2017 with these insturctions, and everything works about fine except a few things. For example, I can't set any type of lock screen, the fingerprint scanner doesn't work and i can't access developer options either. They all just close without any warning and kick me back to settings. I would appreciate any help you would give me!
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
Did you root with magisk?
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] doge488:
No.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
Restore the last working twrp backup. Reboot and see if everything's okay. Then start the rooting all over again.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] doge488:
If only everything would be that easy... My largest problem is that i forgot to take a backup. If anyone could give me one, i might justbe able to solve my problem. Unrooting would work just as fine for me as long as I'll be able to use all functions again. Now I'm unable to uninstall apps. I don't even know what my standard firmware was, because I flashed all kinds of updates by now. I bought this phone a month ago from Vodafone in Hungary, if that helps.

I really screwed up, eh?

Themes 7.5.7 (C432B161)

Hi,

I lost some stock functionality during (TWRP) factory reset of my device (PRA-LX1C432B161). One of impaired application is Theme Manager - the application is running but I cannot change themes - just wallpapers. I'm looking for Titanium Backup of this application. Maybe somebody has it or will be able to make a copy and share it to me? I'd like to try fix it by this way. I need "com.huawei.android.thememanager" package, v. 7.5.7.

Thanks in advance :).
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
Copy the app to

system/app/HwThemeManager,

set the permissions to rw -r -r and reboot.

Maybe it doesn't help. I have repeatedly pointed out that a factoryreset can only be performed in stock recovery. How to restore your firmware can be found in this thread.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] jackulus:
Thanks for support. I'll try this version of apk but I think there is a misunderstunding here or I don't get sth. I haven't done any additional factory resets. My system is in the state after applying your backup procedure and rooting. Nothing else. I suppose (not sure) that this part of the procedure

makes changes to the state of the "system" and causes faulty behavior of some apps, in this case HwThemeManager. There is even no chance to avoid it doing system backup before (what I haven't done) because it doesn't store system apps and Theme Manager is system app. So I suppose (not sure :)) that sth in the data of my ThemeManager app is lost/mixed up and causes this behaviour. Maybe - if somebody did Titanium Backup just after rooting but without backup procedure - this is a chance to restore just particular application. It it what I was thinking/requesting in previous post.

Dou you think that trying to manually restore data of Theme Manager from your system makes any sense ? Providing, that you could share it too... :)
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
One thing is guaranteed, if a systemapp does not behave correctly, it is not an isolated case. It will continue. There will gradually be more mistakes. A creeping process. Therefore I recommend a complete update of the firmware. Apparently, your device is still branded by tim. You never know if my instructions and recommendations are working. You'd have to remove the branding. Only then are my tutorials guaranteed to be effective. Provider firmware often causes problems with rooting.

I can't give you any system apps from my running system. I am currently using a 100% Chinese custom firmware. She stays on until the oreo update comes.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] jackulus:
Not really good news.. Which version of firmware is w/o branding and suitable for my device (originally equipped with PRA-LX1C432B161) ? Then, I could think of debranding steps...
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
That's the problem. I have no knowledge of the debranding. The current firmware (C432B182) is recommended. However, only available via ota update. You already know how to do this from the thread. All other methods have an even higher risk. A good alternative is also the K-Rom V. 3.3. The eRecovery update or [how to unbrick] steps from #1, could work.

If you rely on the status displayed at cold boot screen it is a fake one. Try to adb unlock bootloader once again, especially if you have fully upgraded your system.

Hi,

I found slight incovenience in my rooted (Magisk 14.0, it works fine ) stock firmware (PRA-LX1C432B173). I can't make AdAway automatically working for me after reboot. I can turn blocking on but it works reverse than instructed. I don't need to reboot to start blocking spam, instead when I reboot blocking is turned off. Not big trouble but it would be nice to have it working automatically. Any idea bros ? :)

Perhaps the downloader? Do you use MEGAsync or google chrome when you tested download?

Download and unpack it on your smartphone with ZArchiver. apk. The safest method. If this doesn't work, you have to repeat the download. It must have been broken. The upload was 100% ok.

[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
You should use an external sd for PRA. The low memory is otherwise very fast at the limit. In addition, you cannot make TWRP backups in the internal memory. When you then switch from the internal memory to the external memory, decryption is performed automatically.
