Messed up big time!

Unzipped the zip file and installed the boot.img instead of the zip file.

Now I can't even load TWRP, as VOL UP+Power goes straight to boot into Android.

Once there, I have about a minute before it shuts down and I have no access to developer options/factory reset.

eRecovery doesn't work either as the package is invalid and when I try to use a command line to run ADB and go into fastboot, it says I'm unauthorised. Happy Birthday.

PLEASE HELP!
[Huawei Honor Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] letschky:
Why did you install the boot image?

Stock Boot or the modyfied from Franzroy?

After installing the boot img, the Supersu 2.82 must be flashed, no matter what boot img!

Boot in Erecovery and shotdown.

After shotdown press and hold Volume up and Power Button and boot into Twrp
[Huawei Honor Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] turnjet:
Yeah, was a noob mistake, thought I had to unzip it.

All good now thanks.

I was really enjoying your ROM but couldn't play Pokemon Go. I tried using Magisk but couldn't get it safetynet passed.

Just flashed back to a stock B320 ROM but missing the debloat and smaller icons. :(
[Huawei Honor Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] eddie1:
The new magisk was just released today

You can give it a try

Since it's supposed to do a better job with safetynet

Do I need to root phone or will Magisk do that when I install from TWRP?
[Huawei Honor Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] eddie1:
Installing Magisk means rooting

The only 2 root methods I know is magisk and superSu

Also magisk have modules like Xposed.

But i think it's not superSu compatible

You need do unroot and delete super su and then install magisk

Thanks for a great ROM, phone is awesome now!

I'm in northern Sweden, and the missing 4G band for Telia turns out to be a complete non-issue.

I still have 4G in cities and the 3G speeds are impressive.

I do have the strange echo in speaker mode, on the callers side only - effectively making speaker mode unusable! :(

The sound on my side is fine in all modes: handset, headset, BT headset and speaker mode.

Any idea what the frick is going on here? My Mate 7 did not have this issue...

SOLVED:

I used a bumper style case that covered the noise canceling microphone, it's the tiny hole above the SIM-card slot.

Drilled a 3mm hole in the case, problem solved.

It's the first time for me in this forum.

First of all I want to thank you for your great job with HN8.

I used your V. 1.0 ROM from the beginning

Now obviously I tried 2.0.

Unfortunately it doesn't work properly for me as the 1.0!

1. No Ad-block;

2. No Whatsapp;

And, if I install this apps from Play Store, I can't transform them into system apk

I tried several times to flash 2.0 following istructions in first post, but with same results.

Am I doing something wrong?

Any suggestion?:confused:
[Huawei Honor Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] letschky:
Hi,yes,i forgot Whatsapp put into System and Adblock.

With the Stock Boot.img does not work.

I write Franzroy from the Mate 8 Forum.He make a Insecure Boot.img for us.

Whatsapp install and make a Widget on the Homescreen this works with Notification.(Pic in Attachment)

I add the apk file for adblock in Attachment.

With the Insecure Boot.img from Franzroy works the Whatsapp in System/app Folder

Download the Franzroy Boot.img and flash in TWRP with Image flash.

After flash the Boot.img install Supersu 2.82 for Emui 5 and reboot.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] facet_:
hi, i installed rom but it looks like i have clean stock, no google app, and all my Huawei apps, i only have root. No whatsupp but I already know why. Powerful system writes that unauthorized modifications have been made to the system and that it needs to be reinstalled. What am I doing wrong?

What is the purpose of the Boot_Insecure_B353_Fix-adb_dm-verity-v3.img file for? Thank you for your help.

You can step by step write what when flash when restart and on which partition to install eg a boot.img

In the first Post is the B353 Insecure Boot.img

[Huawei Honor Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] letschky:
Did you make a factory reset before you installed the Rom?

I wipe everything,Cache,Dalvik Cache,System,Data

Install the Rom.

Flash the Insecure Boot.img in Twrp via image flash,use Boot for Boot.img.or copy the Boot.img in your Fastboot/ADB Folder and flash via fastboot in Bootloader:fastboot flash boot Boot_Insecure_B353_Fix-adb_dm-verity-v3.img

Flash Supersu and reboot.

The Phone boot 2 times,this is normal.

The purpose is to make it easier to root

With the Stock Boot.img root does not work 100% you can delete Apps from System Folder but not copy in System.

For this notification unauthorized modifications in System,is there a solution go to system/app/HwOUC you see the HwOUC.apk.Rename to HwOUC.apk.bak and reboot,the message no longer comes.

For later you will see for an Ota Update rename back to original HwOUC.apk and reboot.

I had this already I believe that is a new Huawei measure to prevent root or system changes

But it has an advantage you can easily get to B353 Stockrom.

Flash Stock Recovery and let the procedure expire,i test it and works.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] facet_:

[Huawei Honor Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] swaho:

For me the right order was:

1. install Boot_Insecure_B353_Fix-adb_dm-verity-v3.img

2. format all

Only issue is that I have a warning saying the 'unauthorised changes have been made to pre installed apps / system files' its asking me to restore and to download the following file OTA-EDI-ALI10233B353-full

I can just click Remind Later and bypass but its bugging me, I did try and download and update but got a error when trying to install

Any ideas

Software Guru,

Look at post 54 by letschky, 2nd last paragraph the answer is there.

"For this notification unauthorized modifications in System,is there a solution go to system/app/HwOUC you see the HwOUC.apk.Rename to HwOUC.apk.bak and reboot,the message no longer comes.

For later you will see for an Ota Update rename back to original HwOUC.apk and reboot.

I can confirm that it works.

Hi! I followed the instructions

Phone was at OEM 252.

1. ADB loaded TWRP

2. Unlocked bootloader

3. From TWRP wipe all partitions as instructed

4. Install un secure boot file to the boot partition

5. Installed B353_Letschky ROM

6. Installed super su 2.82

7. rebooted and initial setup.

PHone looks good, except I have no google apps and still have alot of Chinese apps.

How do I get google apps?

EDIT: Nevermind, I found your new thread for new ROM B356. Installed it and looks good so far. Goggle apps showed up.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] Spixe1:
I'm trying to install B_356_Letschky, the 356 ROM, but it's not taking. My phone is unlocked, rooted, xposed installed, and twrp installed.

I followed the instructions and in recovery did a full data wipe, flashed boot insecure b356 fix, installed rom, and then supersu. When it reboots, it's just normal fully stock chinese ROM, no gapps. I did the same but flashed the boot insecure package after installing the rom with the same result.

What step am I missing?
[Huawei Honor Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] Spixe1:
In my attempt to get it working, I've made it worse. While installing the ROM, I noticed that it said this:

-B356 ROM successful installed

script succeeded: result was [

E:unknown command []]

Updating partition details...

The unknown command part was in red, as if it was an error. Nevertheless, it didn't work after trying many times (didn't work = didn't flash the ROM, it was all just stock Chinese ROM). So when you (and others) talked about "formatting" and "deleting all data", I thought maybe you meant the "Format Data" option in TWRP, so I did that. I might have also been that under "wipe", I selected everything: Dalvik / ART Cache, Cache, Data, Internal Storage, System, and Vendor. Then I flashed it. I guess that was stupid....

Now it won't even boot. After the "honor" boot screen, I get a message saying:

Encryption unsuccessful

Encryption was interrupted and can't complete. As a result, the data on your phone is no longer accessible.

There's a long paragraph more after it, but basically it tells me to do a factory reset, and then has a button that says "reset phone" under it. When I press it, it just boot into TWRP.

When I try to install the ROM again, it says the same "E:unknown" error, and then after the "Updating partition details..." it also says:

Failed to mount '/data' (Invalid arguement)

...done

I reboot... and same "Encryption unsuccessful" message. I even restored a previous backup I had of the stock system before I started doing all this flashing, and that didn't work either, I still get the "Encryption unsuccessful" message after rebooting. Did I just brick my phone? Please help.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] coffee-turtle:
Did you get this fixed? I was wondering when you got booted back into TWRP did you try to do WIPE --> Swipe to Factory Reset ?

This is within TWRP itself as opposed to Huawei's "reset phone".
[Huawei Honor Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] coffee-turtle:
Thank you for the hard work on this build. I'm looking into migrating to your ROM. Just wanted to know do you mean by this that High Definition resolution/video isn't working?

Thanks! :)
[Huawei Honor Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] Spixe1:
Yep, the super dev letschky saved me,ha. Factory resets didn't work, but fortunately erecovery had a 'fix partition' option (without evening have to download a the stock ROM).

I'm loving this ROM, but gotta say I don't like the Google Launcher. After using NOVA forever it just seems to lack any customization, especially homescreen icons. Anyway, great ROM from a great dev (Letschky).
[Huawei Honor Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] coffee-turtle:
Glad to hear it! I went ahead and put this ROM on my device. Funny, like your first experience, it seems to still be "stock" with chinese apps and no Google apps. Strange. I also got the E: volume error too.

Do you have the steps to fix that? I would appreciate your assist.

Right now I was able to add Google apps on my own and though MAGISK was said to install, it looks like I had to add SU on my own too. I'm going to use Nova launcher. Are you saying that you can't use other launchers and stuck with Google?
[Huawei Honor Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] Spixe1:
According to Letschky, you can just ignore that error message.

To get it working, make sure you use the Format Data (right most button), where you have to type "yes", and ALSO do the left button format (wipe? i forgot what it says), and select all the options except vendor and micro sdcard. After that, just flash the ROM and it should work.

One thing that confused the hell out of me was that a link was wrong. The link to LSR Rom B356 v2.5.0 had pointed to a ROM that actually had ALL the chinese apps + gapps. So everytime I installed it, I saw all the chinese apps, and i thought it wasn't working. After contacting Letschky, he fixed it, so now it points to the right one. Maybe you should download it again, the new one is only 1.4 GB or so (the Chinese apps + gapps is 2.4 gb or so).

But even when installing the Chinese Apps + Gapps 2.4gb one, one thing that I didn't realize, which had confused me as well, is that the gapps weren't anywhere on screen or obviously accessible after installing. To find them, I had to open one of those app folder things, click +, and then scroll through all available apps, and I saw some google apps listed there to add to the homescreen. Without doing that though, I would have never noticed gapps were installed.

Hopefully my experience will help ya out. Goodluck.

Thank you so much for the detailed response! I hope I can try it out soon. This is very helpful! I will also download the new link! That did present a lot of confusion.

[Huawei Honor Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] coffee-turtle:
Thank you much! I just downloaded it and it was the exact same size as the one I had. If this is correct, then maybe my problem was that I didn't Format Data as was suggested by [MENTION=1652990]Spixe1[/MENTION] ?

By the way, will you be bringing Android 8.0 Oreo to us as well?

Thanks again!

Yes we hpoe it comes Oreo for HN8
[Huawei Honor Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] coffee-turtle:
Not sure what happened, but after installing the image and rebooting to system, everything was fine. But the google apps were still missing. So I decided to do a Factory Reset and do the installation again. This time DATA is not mounted and I can't mount it. Not sure what happened.

Formatted Data. Reloaded your image. Looks good. Since HiApp is there I can load the Google stuff from there, like I did before.

Not sure I got it 100%, but this is still very cool! Thanks!
[Huawei Honor Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] letschky:

Are you going to develop this ROM any further? Will you be adding in any features or taking suggestions? Just asking. Right now I think I'm good to load up all my apps.

Videos don't seem to go from edge to edge of the screen. I will have to figure that out....maybe quality of the videos.

I done basic stuff and installed your rom 356. But, I havent error on data mount, so just installed rom without format data on any stage. Rom booted normally but I not see root and play store... I suppose it is becouse not formated data before. So now? I need to go down advanced wipe, format data YES, err will come, go to erecovery format there, back to twrp, again full wipe and then install rom again???

Will get then play store and root?

thanks

Has anyone experienced apps in the Accessibility area reverting back to OFF after a reboot though you turned it ON? One example is Tasker.

Magisk modules generally will not install. Usually ends up with:

Magisk SU stuff all seems to work. There is root access for all the apps that require it and they are listed correctly.

I also tried just downloading the modules and flashing them with TWRP, but nothing seems to have happened after I reboot into the system.
