Are u sure I loose the imei and serial if I erase everything from twrp? How I can get back the imei and serial?
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] PalakMi:
I am sure that you'll lose IMEI if you wipe EFS (IF I REMEMBER RIGHT)

I don't know how to bring it back on honor 8 pro
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nosstrom:
Ohhhh man I am sure in trouble... .anyone help...if that exists I need a new phone, how am I supposed to bring them back , Mac addresses ... OMG
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] PalakMi:
You lost them?!
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nosstrom:
I haven't checked yet but as I remember I wiped everything..:rolleyes: and the status of lock unlock didn't change with unlock lock process via adb...
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] PalakMi:
You should be good if you made a full backup
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nosstrom:
No unfortunately I don't have back up...now what can ido? Someone to show me a way!

SOMEONE HELP??? Please!
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nosstrom:
Ladys and Gentlemen after hours of trying and stundying, i have to say that i finally made it. I unbricked my phone and is in fully working state just like out of the box. I would like to share with you some steps which i did and unfortunately haven't been mentioned in the tutorial and must be corrected because as i am not a totally noob cause i made many flashing rooting moding xposed in the past with many overated samusngs devices, i find myself in a way desperate and sad cause i didn't know what to do while i had tried everything. Off course i appreciate all the editor's effort for the tutorial because without them i would be stucked with no phone just trying nothing. So i thank them with all my heart, cause my phone was a 4 days NEW phone and was bloody stucked.

As u can see in the previous posts , i was wondering about the uploading of the full stock firmware and when will this happen. I find the stock firmware which in my case is DUK-L09C432120a and download it from here https://xdaforums.com/honor-8-pro/development/stock-firmware-duk-l09-t3602031. In this section hit the "link" in the first post and voila choose the firmware which fits to ur devices. I was following the tutorial by adding the exctracted firmware and adding as it is ("dload" folder ) into the root of the external sd(formated exFat). I was starting the device with power, volume up + down and it was not accepted not verified.

What i did, was to flash the twrp recovery via adb and then run twrp hit go to advanced wipe , hit the system, data hit resize and repair(in my case i felt i need it). Then flashing Nocheckrecovery and Nocheckrecovery2.img into adb and then did the dload thing with the firmware inside the sd card.The firmware flashed and when i finaly had a fully working phone i did an update and now my phone is fully updated with the latest ROM.

Your phone must be unlocked

1. Download the stock firmware and exctract it

2.copy the exctrated folder dload in the root of an sd card(exFat formated) better use ur laptop to do it

3.Flash twrp with adb and go in(do a system or internal memory repair and resize if u think need it)

4.Flash recovery Nocheck and Nocheck2 and turn it OFF(You find in the begining of this thread)

5.insert the sd card into ur phone and push power vol+ and vol- togehter until u see the upgrade starting....

and ur phone is locked again.

I hope i helped.

hello. i need the original boot.img for the honor 8 pro L09C432B183. I had rooted with phhs supersu 310 beta, and now i have unrooted with unSU .zip , but the magisk root.zip already says that the boot.img is modified and won't install.

how can i get the right boot.img or the a flashable zip for boot.img? ( i use twrp 3.1.1.1)
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Zahir_Jabrailzadeh:
Hi again, it took a "little bit" time but there was no result in both cases. I wrote to the support which employees are very stupid or don't want to help. I just get an answer "We would like to inform that your detail has been shared with respective team. We would request you to kindly wait for some time." As you see I had to wait for about 2 months and still no answer. Very disappointed in their support level and hope that none of you will have to deal with them. Avoid any types of contact with that persons and believe me, you will save your nerves. After that, I tried the way you suggested and registered a new user but even with the new one after 2 weeks of usage I get an error "The Huawei ID used to apply for the unlock code has not been used on the device for more than 14 days." when trying to get unlock password. Any ideas what to do with this?
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] lunchplease:
From what I remember I did I bit the bullet so to speak and paid about $5 to get the unlock code immediately from the DC unlock app. Pain in the arse but I've had to use it a fair few times in the course of trying different roms so make sure you save it somewhere so you can use it again if needs be
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] adriansticoid:
Yeah maybe you should go with DC too.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] arthur.kuban:

[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] adriansticoid:
Is the bin file in the root of your SD?
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] arthur.kuban:

After rebranding my DUK AL20 to DUK L09 i noticed so many errors in games.

Many crashes or have bugs.

For example, Dream League Soccer freezes after some minutes, Musiverse after few minutes, and now Nova Legacy crashes too.

Any solution please?, i don't want back to the old stock rom of my DUK AL20, it sucks and i had a lot of problems with notifications and Google apps, i really need a Honor 8 Pro Rom u.u

Sorry por my bad english

I also rebranded a AL09 to L09. I didn't notice any issues while gaming. Once I had some weird issues but it happens due to a bad charger. After unplugging the charger it was working fine again

IMEI : 864623030376150

and I cannot buy credit form dc unlocker, sanctioned area

Any Idea what should I do?

Please help!:crying:
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] lunchplease:
You'll see from previous pays by myself amongst a few others that we had to use the DC unlocker to load software to flash software. I don't think it's avoidable to pay the $15 or whatever it was, to carry on the rebrand. But as I said at the start you really should read the info throughout the thread so you know what's needed. I know it's laborious sometimes but the info is there
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] anil2653:
I feel it is not advisable to share IMEI numbers with everyone
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] simika:
been reading the entire thread cause I really wanna buy this smartphone.. probably it'll be chinese version AL09 (V9)

do you still suggest me to buy it? not just for the change of country but also for the quality?

thanks :)
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] lunchplease:
In my opinion it's an awesome phone. I just got a second one for my mother in law coming from Apple too and she loves it so far. I rebranded my own from Chinese V9, have bought the 2nd one already rebranded as it wasn't for me and didn't want to risk it But I think as long as you know you'll have to pay DC or someone else to help along the way to use their back end entry, it is an awesome phone. Hope this helps, cheers
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] simika:
yes my friend helpful :) 2 things.. once you rebrand it to honor 8 Pro you can use custom roms for pro 8 without problem?official update (if i stay stock but rooted) will be available? I'll need to be rooted and have Google play working :)

[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] nil.d:
Can you tell me how exectly going back frm custom to stock.. I mean do i need to flash no check recoveries both of them and then proceed with dload sdcard process, or just paste dload folder in sd root while having twrp and proceed.. Really confused! Plez help
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] lunchplease:
Hi mate, yes download the Stock rom to SD card (that's what I did), flash both the recoveries from this most excellent guide, and then so the 3 button erecovery and Voila. It's back to stock. I can't remember if I had to reuse the unlock code from DC beforehand... Almost certainly I did not but.... Yeah think that's all that was needed.

Hit thanks if my posts are useful!

Thanks Lunch

PS feel free to PM me re this if needs be...I understand how amount and young it is to think you've bricked your phone so will try to help from my experience

After the final update via sd

The phone just shows blank screen

And if connected to pc

Shows fastboot connected

I tried to force firmware update via phoenix

And tried both C432 and C900

Same issues

Can anyone please help me out with this

Help would be very much appreciated ❤❤❤

Please Any Reply...:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pevar86:
Hello, rahman, sorry in advance for my English. If the phone is stuck on the black screen you have to reinstall the stock rom that you had. Press the volume down and the power button with USB connected and than wait the sound of USB connected, like when you want to get access to fastboot. Although the screen is black it works. Now manually you have to install the old stock rom that you have or other solution use DC-Phoeinx.

The only problem after that, like me, the phone stuck on software version NRD90M.

Did you a backup via TWRP
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] loic2907:
Yeah Pevar, have the same problem with the NRD90M, flashed the B183, and NRD90M, and I haven't the Huawai update in the phone now

Did you find a solution ?
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pevar86:
No sorry, just I'm waiting that someone replay, maybe if someone have the backup via TWRP we can back to the original or forward to the European one, I don't know. I'm a beginner with these things.

But when I rebranded my P9 was different, I did all the works with TWRP and two zip file, one update.zip and one oeminfo.zip, I think that the problem now is our oeminfo.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] loic2907:
I find a solution, i just put the ROM by -=MoRpH=-, and i am on DUL-L09C432 but B120, i'll try to extract the update download by Huawai updater in the phone.

It's actually downloading
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pevar86:
Hi, what you mean with you fine a solution, because I have been update a B120 rom again but stuck on the black screen
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] loic2907:
Black screen after what ? You can go to the recovery ? The black screen is after Honor blue screen ?
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pevar86:
After 100% of update installation, the device is stuck on black screen, but the device is powered because if I connect the device in the computer the USB ADB is recognized, but nothing on the smartphone screen.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] loic2907:
You can use Vysor app by clockworkmod, maybe you can have a screen on the PC..

Or you can poweroff, wipe cache

Or unlock Bootloader, install twrp, and wipe cache dalvik and cache

And if problem is still here full wipe
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Bontropi:
Guys, where am I wrong?

I managed to complete the procedure to go from L09C432 to L09C900, but now I can not do the reverse procedure.

The usual screen with the exclamation mark appears to me (saying update is incompatible...).

Yet I followed all the steps correctly.

Edit: SOLVED. I gave wrong commands during the fastboot flashing recoveries phase.

Thanks for this great guide. You saved my life.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pevar86:
Hi,

Nothing happen, stuck in the same point, back on 'test rom', have I to root the phone before flashing the new ROM ? Should change something's

Thanks

---------- Post added at 08:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:51 AM ----------

Now at the and I found my error, I never reset bootloader before update the ROM, how can I reset the bootloader and not simply relock?
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pevar86:
Hi Bontropi,

Please can you explain to me how to do the point of the guide where is write lock your bootloader (not relock but reset bootloader)

Tks
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Bontropi:
There's nothing to explain really... :)

Simply follow the procedure step by step, and bootloader will be automatically closed after "dload flash".

Be sure to follow each step. It's very easy to go wrong.

Yesterday evening I was almost crying in front of my Honor 8 Pro. Then something magical happened. :)
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pevar86:
Tks, sorry for the stupid question, but I did not understand the error, I was able to flash every kind of not stock ROM but not change to the c432 one... I followed every single point, but every time after 100% of installation the phone stuck on bluck screen.

Tks
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Bontropi:

[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Bontropi:
Got it.

For what it's worth, I jumped from European Honor 8 pro to the international firmware, without any ota, and back again cause I wasn't able anymore to return stock after I unlocked the bootloader and flash custom roms stock Android based.

After a lot of attempts, I finally made it.

It's not impossible to go wrong without perception of the mistake you have made.

So try to pay attention as much as you can... When you flash oeminfo files, is everything fine?

Inviato dal mio DUK-L09 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pevar86:
At that poin first time when I flashed oeminfo the phone lock also FRP (Chinese one have not) so thanks to DC-Phoenix can flash the stock ROM (after the ROM phone show NRD9M test) and unlock FRP and go fwd with the instruction. I think there is something wrong in my procedurw, because all the people get the rebrand

I used all the file in the post
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Bontropi:
It's 99% an frp problem related.

Mine was unlocked from the beginning and stayed unlocked even when I flashed oeminfo with twrp.

Try to focus on this phase.

Did you put the OEM number you want to have ? And did you try to flash the rom by morph ?
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pevar86:
OK for me works like that, I were on NRD90M with OEM info L09 and what to back on AL20.

1. Unlock bootloader

2. Flash TWRP

3. Flash OEM info AL 20 with TWRP terminal

3. Unlock again bootloader

4.flash TWRP

5. Install Magisk v14 to root with twrp

6. Dload stock rom in sdcard

7. Volume - & + & power

8. Back on old stock rom with correct P/N

I did't know why it works, but after alot of combination this one works.

[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Bontropi:
Guys, again and again: be sure you flash the two "no-check" recoveries. It's been essential for me.

In fact, in Pevar86 procedure, I have noticed that he didn't flash the two stock recoveries.

Happy for him if he has found another way to go...but it's not the way described in the guide.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pevar86:
Sorry, my mistake but I follow the procedure every time and I have flashed the no check recoveries, there is also an error in the procedure I think, pls confirm, is write in the procedure :

Fastboot flash recovery DUK-recovery2-NoC.....

Fastboot flash recovery2 DUK-recovery2-NoC.....

In the second one I have to write the same recovery or the DUK-recovery2-nocheck
