Bricked a DUK-AL20 trying to install the ROM. I had a few failed attempts before as well but I was able to recover using the Huawei recovery which downloaded and installed the OS automatically. Now that also is not working. It's downloading and installing but restarting to launch the same screen again.

The build it's automatically trying to download is DUK-AL20C00B181-FULL.

I've tried to install DUK-AL20C00B173 and failed.

Any help would be really great. Thanks in advance. :)

Please help!

I tried to rebrand a friend's Honor V9 (DUK-AL20C00B173) to Honor 8 Pro (DUK-L09C432).

But after flashing OEMInfo through TWRP terminal, both bootloader and frp got locked.

As i understand this happens to a lot of people and the only solution is the DC Phoenix. Unfortunately, when trying to use this application i get this message (see attached photo). I tried all versions of the application from v32 - to v46 with no luck.

Please help!
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] PalakMi:
As far from what I understand from the screenshot, the date isn't set correctly, right?! If so, that's probably the reason why DC Phoenix don't work
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] petermit:
I actually have my computer's date set correctly. Yet that is the message I receive!

hi I have a problem. I have installed RR Rom in my DUK-L09C432 and now go back to Rom stocks. My problem is SOFTWARE INSTALL FILED! in EMUI Recovery. I now tell you all steps made and tell me if I have done everything right.

1-My Bootloader be already unlocked my staus is: FRP Unlocked - Unlocked Bootloader.

2- I downloaded from forum: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B134drJ4-Ed0b2ZVY1JSZExYaUk

3- Unzipped .rar moved to my SD Card (ex FyleSyS) dload folder.

4- In bootloader mode via fastboot I executed the flash commands

fastboot flash recovery DUK-RECOVERY-NoCheck.img

fastboot flash recovery2 DUK-RECOVERY-NoCheck.img

I downloaded the files from this therd.

5- I spend H8Pro releasing while keeping the 3 buttons pressed (Vol +, Vol-, Power) Recovery starts to install but give error to 21% Software install error Software Check error please redownload (I do not remember well the text but the meaning being the anil file failed to re-load the Firmware) but the recovery is not NoCheck? What am I wrong?

Help please :(

Hello to everything, I would have a problem that I can not solve. I followed this guide to rebrand an honor v9 (duk al20) to honor 8 pro (I'm the same phone, mine is just the Chinese version as you well know).

I unblock the bootloader and start flashing the files, but when I install the oeminfo.bin, the phone reboots without having to install the recovery nocheck, and now I find the phone in bootloop and, very serious, I can not write from adb or fastboot, the phone is recognized as duk l09 but I can not write or unlock the bootloader, which is locked, and the frp is also blocked. I tried various roms in dload mode but crashes at 5% and tells me software install failed! I do not get the recovery firmware from Erecovery, does anyone know how I can act? I took him to a technician but he did not know how to do anything, and I would not send him for assistance in China, since here in Italy the honor service does not accept it even for a fee!
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] erayrafet:
Try with DC Unlocker.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
What specific oeminfo did you flash you need the correct version

Etc if you flashed DUK-l09C432 oeminfo you need same firmware

Also wipe data it should help you to boot at least
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] GDobriy:
Hi all!

Tryed to rebrand duk-al20. Unlocked bootloader, flashed TWRP... So it changed to duk-l09, but have no firmware, bootloader locked and FRP locked. If I try to boot, have eRecovery without "reset" option.

What I tried to do:

1) fastboot oem unlock *** - got "command not allowed"

2) dload using 3 buttons - don't even start flashing, just boot in eRecovery

Any ideas?

Thank you =)
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] lunchplease:
Yes, you have to use DC unlocker service to unlock it again for you. We've found that the only way and it cost about 15 euro I believe if memory serves correct
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] GDobriy:
thank you for the answer. So expensive... Maybe another way?
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] lunchplease:
If you find one let us know but don't think that's going to happen unfortunately :(
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] GDobriy:
SOLVED!

tryed this manual

http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?s=&showtopic=820467&view=findpost&p=63847930

(in russian)

Firmware finder+DNS proxy = stock eRecovery gets the firmware you give it.

No need to unlock bootloader again

P.S. can translate the manual, if needed.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] lunchplease:
Wow, too late for me but well done if it does what you say. So you're all set and successfully rebranded?
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] GDobriy:
Yes, it was duk-al20 and now it is duk-l09 (no chineese programs, google services now exist; 100% european). Firmware successfully upgraded by eRecovery with locked bootloader.

by the way, don't forget to remove SDcard before getting firmware, otherwise it won't go.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] lunchplease:
Wow well done. So can you explain step by step for others so as noone makes a simple yet costly mistake as m intrigued. But seriously that's fantastic to hear
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] GDobriy:
Flashing via eRecovery​

You will need:

1. computer

2. Wi-Fi router

3. Firmware Finder on PC or other platform.

4. Huawei Multi-Tool

Preparation

I only describe, how to tune-up router to flash any firmware, that approved by Firmware Finder. How to tune and use utilities read in the linked topics.

For example, I'll describe how to tune up a router, I have.

Enter admin-panel. Than DHCP preferences. Assign primary and secondary DNS - 81.177.139.39

[IMG="DNS"]http://4pda.ru/forum/dl/post/10815585/1.jpg[/IMG]

The process

First of all, if you have custom recovery, you need to install stock eRecovery. You can do this by Huawei Multi-Tool, or install for your model from existing base (3-7), or extract an image from firmware (3-1).

Than go to the FF.

In PC version choose "Common Base" tab, find suitable firmware and copy link to the Chandelog.

In the "ProxyServer" section paste the link and register for update: push "Set", and then "Register for Update"

Final

Boot into eRecovery

Connect our wi-fi

Flashing... you are just to wait

My phone had bootloop after flashing. But hard reset helped (yes, this option will appear).

You need to unlock the bootloader again. I used DC unlocked but that does cost a little to do. Search back a little bit and someone in here has managed to unlock for free but I didn't. Then carry on following the instructions to finish rebranding

fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk RECOVERY_RAMDIS

---------- Post added at 19:30 ---------- Previous post was at 19:23 ----------

These Huawei Treble devices use no longer have a boot and recovery partition ;

But instead have a kernel partition, a ramdisk partition, and a recovery_ramdisk partition.

Both boot and recovery share the same kernel, but with separate ramdisks on separate partitions.

boot is ramdisk partition.

recovery is recovery_ramdisk partition.

1. google is your friend, c900 does not get updates (in most cases), is only for lineage/rros

2. checkout twrp thread in rom & development section

3. your oeminfo is available (by the end of the day, only l09c10 missing) so you can skip this step

most things you can easily answer yourself next time ;)

just search ^^

may i ask what model you have?
