Wiping the internal storage is not enough. You need to format the storage to remove encryption.

Updates? ??
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] extpumajl:
The only one answer that you will get here (if at all), it's soon. How soon, no one will say ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I check the forum from time to time for news, but I do not expect updates anymore.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] XePeleato:
Please keep in mind that the Oreo update has changed a LOT of the internals, a lot of modules don't even work, we have a base version working but we are waiting for a EMUI 6 release (of any Huawei device) to make everything work again.

Please be patient.

But why you don't want to finish 14.1 to take it completely bug-free? Finally, a few bugs are still present like random reboot issue and other small things. The same was with CM 13.:(
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Dimontiman:
Does this mean the new custom Rom you are working on will work independently from official EMUI 6 source code for honor 8?

Maybe emui 6 beta for mate 9 or official release on 16.10, maybe some time later will help you to set up the necessary things.

Thank you for your hard work:svetius:
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] FalloutState:
Why did you rollback to 6.0? You have to be on the latest 7.0 update for these to install, as per the instructions.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] nastygeek:
I did it because TWRP won't install otherwise I was on B 388 update with Aug 2017 security update and TWRP was made in May 2017. May be thats why?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] FalloutState:
I'm on B388 (latest on my L04) stock and TWRP 3.1.1-1 installed just fine. You won't be able to flash Nougat ROMs from stock Marshmallow, you'll have to be on Nougat.

What do you mean it wouldn't install?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] nastygeek:
Hi thanks. What I did was wipe all partitions ex micro SD in the TWRP wipe option. Does that automatically remove encryption?

---------- Post added at 03:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:37 PM ----------

Oh no. May be thats what I did. Also did you remove encryption? Another person pointed it out

---------- Post added at 03:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:45 PM ----------

Oh no. May be thats what I did, trying to install nougat custom rom over MM. Also did you remove encryption? Another person pointed it OUT.

won't install means it successfully got pushed and installed from adb but couldn't boot into TWRP, no matter how many times I tried, got stuck at YOUR DEVICE IS BOOTING screen
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] FalloutState:
Yes, you do have to remove encryption in TWRP. To do this, go to Wipe and click Format Data, and follow the prompts.

Did you follow the instructions in the TWRP thread correctly? If you're on lastest stock, unlocked bootloader, and use fastboot to flash TWRP, there's no reason it shouldn't work.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] nastygeek:
The only way I can get my phone to boot into TWRP is by downgrading to 6.0. Otherwise gets stuck at your device is booting screen.

When i am in TWRP on 6.0, i click wipe everything ex micro SD. So i assumed wiping this way removes encryption. But still get error 7
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] FalloutState:
No, that won't remove encryption - you HAVE to go through the "Format Data" prompt.

But again, if you aren't on 7.0, these ROMs will not install. Even if they did, they wouldn't work properly.

I encourage you to go back to stock 7.0, at least B385 (but 388 is fine), and try following the TWRP instructions exactly as they're stated.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] nastygeek:
OK. This is what i usually do. Boot into bootloader using fastboot. Do oem unlock. Devices wipes itself. Boot again. Enable debugging. Boot into bootloader from fastboot again from adb. Push TWRP. Img to recovery. Then fastboot reboot. Then disconnect and switch off. Then hold volume up and press power. Then it gets stuck into YOUR DEVICE IS BOOTING screen. I wish I had a screen shot to show you.

Please tell me what am I doing wrong.

---------- Post added at 04:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:16 PM ----------

And yes, i did format data and when that didn't work, I did advanced wipe, and when that didn't work, I wiped all ex micro SD. Still error
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] FalloutState:
Are you sure you're using the correct TWRP image? And are you sure you're issuing the command as "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" - ensuring that the file is properly named twrp.img?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] nastygeek:
OK i will do as you say and try to reinstall it. Will let you know

---------- Post added at 11:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:48 AM ----------

Also , the latest twrp i see is 3.1.1-0 , is there a 3.1.1.1 also ?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] FalloutState:
I think you're looking at the wrong thread.

https://xdaforums.com/honor-8/development/twrp-t3566563

This is the official TWRP thread for Nougat ROMs. 3.1.1-1 is the latest at the moment.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] nastygeek:
wow, i didnt even know this existed. I was going to twrp website and downloading the latest 3.1.1.0.

will try this right now and let you know. THANKS BOSS !
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] FalloutState:
Yeah, that definitely wouldn't work. Many devices, including ours, need modifications to recoveries before they'll properly run. You should have no issues with the version I linked.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] nastygeek:
Ok, twrp 3.1.1.1 worked !! you are the man !!

now before installing a new rom , do i need to install SU or that infamous 'vendor.zip' file ?

---------- Post added at 12:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:05 PM ----------

oh my god !!!! If I could , I would make you the president of this country......... you are a god sent !!

just one last question , in your opinion , which rom is better , especially in terms of call drop / GPS fix ??

---------- Post added at 01:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:10 PM ----------

How long should the first install take ? I wiped everything and clean installed this and its been about 10 minutes.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] nastygeek:
alright , now i have installed a custom rom. i used lineage , then PA , then Carbon , then RR , but i have the same problem in all of them - the phone app crashes as soon as i am making a call with the message Call Ended, but the other side recieves the call..... anyways , after resetting about 34 times and installing different roms, i finally figured out the first part of the problem, its the damn VOLTE. as long as my phone has VOLTE on , the phone app crashes. the only fix i can find is to disable LTE and work on 3g or 2g, and then my phone app works fine, but on doing this, my data speed is reduced to 3g speeds.

Is there a way to keep LTE but only disable VOLTE ?

I know this may be a little off topic question and i would appreciate if you can help or guide me to the right place ......

thanks in advance
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] FalloutState:
These ROMs don't support VoLTE, sadly. I have no idea about disabling volte specifically, but you're correct that volte is an issue. Search around the rom threads, it's been discussed by others before and they may have mentioned a way to stop it.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] nastygeek:
if you dont mind telling me, how is your phone making calls ? what did you do about VOLTE ?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] FalloutState:
My carrier doesn't support it, so it's not an issue for me.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] nastygeek:
Although i was successfully able to flash custom ROMs, I just reverted back to stock, because of 2 reasons. 1. unable to make or get calls due to VOLTE 2. camera doesnt work. but thanks for helping me out !!:):D;):p:angel::cyclops::good:
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Corax26:
Hi guys, a quick heads-up in case some of you are still affected by the GPS-related reboot issue. I am a RROS user and I found a way to prevent system_server crashes caused by the FLP HAL, which is what causes the random reboots when using the GPS. This proved to be reliable for me and others RROS users who have tried it. Since LOS and RROS share the same OpenKirin base, this should hopefully work on LOS as well. Here is my original post in the RROS thread: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=73857894&postcount=1702. Hope that helps!

Is there a bug list or list of things that need to be fixed? I'm curious about this ROM, dont have an Honor 8 yet but would like to know what works and what doesn't before I get one.

Hey,

I am on LOS and want to go back to EMUI because my battery sadly isn't good at all anymore.

I have an old backup of EMUI and wanted to ask whether I can just restore the backup and it will work or whether I will get into any problems with encryption through this restore.

Maybe [MENTION=5933297]adriansticoid[/MENTION] can help or someone else
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] XePeleato:
Hi, I recommend you to first reflash EMUI, while preserving your data partition, so first go to eRecovery and format data, it will encrypt your data partition, then while in TWRP restore data, system and vendor. Reboot and it should work.

Anyway, keep data safe at all moments!
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mivoe99:
How can I format my data in eRecovery?

Will I lose my internal storage?

My initial situation:

-I am on LOS14.1 and want to go back to EMUI.

-I've made a backup of EMUI directly after I formatted the data to flash a Custom ROM

I would be very thankful if you could list all the steps I need to take to go back to EMUIfrom my current situation.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] XePeleato:
There's a button called 'factory reset' in eRecovery, it will wipe everything in you data partition, internal storage and app data, so back everything up, once you have your data wiped, restore the EMUI backup, that should be it!
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mivoe99:
If I get this right I don't need to restore my backup then or do I?

The backup is just a clean version of EMUI with nothing on it. And when I get you right I will get the stock EMUI ROM with the eRecovery funtion right?

Where do I need to store the files for the erecovery? I mean it needs something to flash as well - something like a EMUI.zip or some images. WHere do I get them from?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] XePeleato:
As I said:

As I said:

So no, it will just wipe data.

Just restore the original recovery with fastboot, then boot to it like if you were to boot TWRP. Obviously you'll need to keep your backup in your computer or somewhere else because your phone will be wiped. Whenever you wipe it, install TWRP again and restore your data, it will work.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mivoe99:
I am cool with having TWRP - so I don't need to flash the original recovery back on or do I?

TWRP should still be there after I factory reset in eRecovery or not?

My backup is on the sdcard in my phone - so there it is good.

I will do it like this. This should work:

-I will reboot to eRecovery and take the factory reset

-Then I will boot to TWRP and restore my from sdcard backup - I don't need to wipe something here or do I? It should already be wiped.

-Install Magisk for root

-Reboot and EMUI should be correctly installed.

Right? Or did I get something wrong?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] XePeleato:
You need to replace TWRP with eRecovery, there's no other way to access it.

Looks correct, and no wipes are needed on TWRP.

I assume that the backup that you are restoring has a system and vendor partition backup (as well as data), if that's correct then no problem.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mivoe99:
Image

I am not an expert but this is how the backup files inside the folder looks like and a vendor data system and boot file are in there so it should be fine right?

Sorry that I am so paranoid with flashing etc but I've already hadsome pretty *#!?*# experiences with it :D

Thanks a lot for your help already.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] XePeleato:
Exactly, those are the files, now just do the process and it will be fine.

ll be alright.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mivoe99:
Do you mean the stock Huawei/Honor recovery by eRecovery or do you mean the recovery/menu that is accessible through pressing volume up during the "your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted"

Because I thought it would be the second one you mean because it's also titled with eRecovery but there is no "factory reset" option there. There are just options to reboot, power off and "downloading latest version and recovery"
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] XePeleato:
That's why I said that you had to replace TWRP. It's the recovery that was there before TWRP, you may find it online or in an update package, you get to it as you'd enter TWRP.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mivoe99:
Can I get it with the firmware finder app?

Do I need a special version of it? I already had an update.app downloaded and kept it on my computer. Can I extract the recovery.img out of it and flash it in fastboot with fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.IMG or do I nedd a specific or newer version? Also there are two recoveries in the update.app - recovery.img and recovery2.img - do you know which one I need to take there? They are both the same size so are they even different?

If so I need to download the latest Full-OTA update for the FRD-L09 (I have the european version) right?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] XePeleato:
Yes.

No.

Yes.

Yes they are different, use the former (recovery.img).

You can use almost any eRecovery, the version isn't important, however, try to get the one that matches with your EMUI version, if you can't there's no problem, it will work.

Wish you luck!
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mivoe99:
[MENTION=7354786]XePeleato[/MENTION] am I allowed to reboot to Lineage during those two steps? Otherwise, how do I get to bootloader from the recovery? It's just the reboot option there - no power off or extended reboot menu.

I think LineageOS is in a bootloop now (understandable)

Do I have to factory reset again when LineageOS already attempted to boot or can I reboot to fastboot and continue without any problems?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] XePeleato:
Well, you can choose the reboot option and then hold the Volume down button, anyway it isn't a problem to boot to EMUI, so don't worry about it.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mivoe99:
Well... I tried it and then the message in eRecovery plopped up that my data partition was damaged seriously and I should format it to recover the phone - what I did

However this shouldn't have an impact on the next step right? (Next step: flashing twrp)

current situation: in fastboot ready to flash twrp
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] XePeleato:
Right, Flash TWRP, restore EMUI and reboot to see what happens (it should work just fine)
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mivoe99:
Alright - I flashed TWRP

How can I reboot into recovery now?

fastboot reboot recovery

and

fastboot reboot-recovery

don't work...
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] XePeleato:
As always, fastboot reboot. Immediately after, unplug your device from the USB port and hold the Volume up key.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mivoe99:
Can I restore all partitions?

system, data, vendor, boot?

Can I flash magisk immideatly after or do I have to wait and flash it after the first boot?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] XePeleato:
You should. As I already explained, that step just wiped data, nothing else, you still have Lineage in boot, system and vendor.

I don't know.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mivoe99:
Thanks a lot man ;)

It boots up EMUI - but I have a problem with the magisk installation.

Magsik tells me that I should restore the unmodifed boot image ant that it has already been modified by other programms - which it hasn't

I made the backup of the stock EMUI ROM directly after I unlocked the bootloader rooted my phone and formatted the data.

Do you have a clue how I can fix this?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] XePeleato:
I'm sorry but I don't know how to fix that, anyway since it's a magisk error I'd ask to someone with more experience with it, since I don't know what could have gone wrong.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mivoe99:
Ok. No problem

Thanks a lot man for your help and your time!
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mivoe99:
Actually this isn't the only problem I have... I found out that there are missing many apps like the software updater app and keyboard app...

How can I get a totally stock EMUI ROM on the phone - because the backup is somehow not doing very well with restoring the stock version of EMUI :/

Can I use this instruction to get to the stock ROM with the update.app

I am downloading the latest Full-OTA the Firmware-Finder finds for my device (device FRD-LD09C432, downloading FRD-L09C432B398) and I will try installing it through the way that is shown in the instructions in this thread.

Will this work?

Will this re-lock my bootloader like some other users report in the thread?

Or could I just extract system and boot from the update.app and flash them via (like post #8 in the thread mentioned above)

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash system system.img

I know it's kind of off-topic but I don't know who else to ask.

:laugh::good:

And if you now ask how to restore just use the search function in xda honor guides forum.. As this is lineage OS thread

There is a explicit guide how to restore from lineage to stock emui
