Ofcourse unlocking the device voids the warranty according to our manufacturer though Rooting Cannot Legally Void Your Warranty :eek:

You can't get back the warranty once you unlock it.

Even relocking bootloader and full stock reflash won't give your warranty back.Unlocking the devices triggers a hardware fuse that lets Manufacturer know that the device has been unlocked. Plus the UUID or whatever it is that is used to give you the bootloader unlock code is probably marked down as unlocked on Honor's side.

However, they cannot void your statutory rights. Those are given to you by law, and only a statutory act can invalidate them. So if you root your device and it develops a hardware fault, not at fault of the rooting, you have your statutory rights in-tact and usable.

Hello guys,

It seems Huawei released some firmwares for the Honor 7X BND-L21.

Unfortunately, it's OTA-MF, and not Full-OTA... Do you know how many time it can take for Huawei to release the Full-OTA in order to install it on my no-OS Honor 7x phone please?

(I know, it's not the good forum thread but I didn't wanted to open a channel for only one question).

Thanks!
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] letschky:
it´s ok you post here.

I think wait one or two weeks then a full firmware package available
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] k0pernicus:
Thank you - it will be my christmas gift from Huawei ;)

So, as soon as they release the full firmware: Reboot bootloader > TWRP > ADB Sideload > ADB push firmware > Install > Reboot. Is it correct?

Thanks again letschky!

I'm bootloader-unlocked, rooted with SuperSU, custom-recovery with TWRP, debloated, and have XPosed installed with my favorite modules including YouTube AdAway. I think I did it all in under an hour. I have never had a faster and easier customization experience with any phone in the past.

Yeah that one I meant, I am not unlocking my bootloader until there are costum ROMs, just for sure

Thanks for the help. Turns out I hadn't connected with the HiSuite and the USB Debugging kept toggling off. Now that I have unlocked the bootloader and TWRP installed. Going to wait for custom roms before I root it.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] Darrian:
I intend to unlock mine the second I get it. Why? So when I go to flash a recovery or ROM later I won't lose all the data on the internal storage (unlocking the bootloader forces a complete wipe and reset).
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] letschky:
Yes this is normal,unlock the Bootloader reset the Phone.

Without this reset can't mount Data in Twrp.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] Jan.Pul:
Well, when you flash a rom you'll have to wipe all data anyway to prevent bootlooping and stuff, I just would like to have a few more months with warranty
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] Darrian:
No. You have to wipe the data partition. You do not have to wipe data/media, so all your photos, music, porn or whatever will not be erased. So getting the unlock done before loading internal storage up with all your files is better.

I didn't expect this from huawei

Huawei will record your unlock request information; for software and hardware failures arising as a result of unlocking the bootloader, Huawei repair centers can provide repair services charged at the standard rate for repair work outside the scope of the warranty.

Such a shame, yet, no other option.

Any confirmation of any of the above working on the L24 version? I saw someone asked before for a tutorial write up but I didn't see anyone say they had theirs up and running with twrp and root. I'm only asking because mine should be here come Tuesday and I'm hoping to get it rooted and ask that fun stuff. Or I'll just have to be the first lol

[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] str8stryk3r:
That looks like a way to put twrp on after a brick using the al-10 software. And it looks like a lot of work lol. Your method looks way easier. Maybe soon they'll put the stock firmware online for the L-24 version pretty soon and things will pick up the pace with development. I might still give yours a try anyways when the phone gets here.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] letschky:

Confirmed working for the International BND-L21, bootloader unlocked, TWRP recovery and SuperSU root fully functioning.

However, I must say, the guide is not 100% complete on the first page, I had some issues when trying to flash SuperSU on the phone!

The most important procedure was the following which was not mentioned above:

Instructions to Root Honor 7X using SuperSU:

1 -Boot your device into TWRP recovery mode. To do so, power down the device first. Then press and hold the Volume Up + Power button altogether until you see the recovery splash screen.

2 -For the first time your device boots into TWRP, you will be prompted with the ‘Unmodified system partition’ message. So, swipe the button to allow modifications.

3 - Go to the ‘Mount’ menu and press the ‘Enable MTP’ button.

4 - Connect your Honor device to the PC and transfer the SuperSU zip file to the external storage (SD card).

Disconnect the device.

5 - Press the ‘Install’ button in the TWRP main screen.

6- Navigate to the external storage and select the SuperSU zip file you just transferred.

7 - Finally, swipe the ‘Swipe to confirm Flash’ button to root Honor 7X using SuperSU

With regards to the above, you MUST copy SuperSU/Magisk to the external memory card ONLY after booting into recovery and mounting the external SD/Memory card. If you copy SuperSU/Magisk before the above, you will not be able to flash anything as all files on the memory card and internal memory are all gibberish!

So be aware not to copy any flashable files into the memory card or even i the internal memory.

The only way to flash anything is by booting to recovery, mounting external SD card and then copying the file over. Once complete, disconnect memory card, navigate to external memory card then you are able to flash files!!

Bear this in mind as it is NOT mentioned above!!

[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] Harfainx:
I decided to test it out and see if this would work for the Huawei Mate SE (BND-L34), and it does! Went through the normal bootloader unlock stuff, and then I flashed your TWRP image and it worked perfectly. Sideloaded SuperSU because it seems like everything on the internal storage is encrypted (can't see files, and all folders are gibberish names), but it looks like it worked fine.

I have root, and I've got TWRP on my brand new Mate SE!

[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] mrmazak:
I have 2 7x's.

first one unlocked flashed twrp, formated /data and lost some hw_init apks.

hw_init has the update app

flashed twrp on second phone to pull that folder and restore to first.

I think YAY, but neither of them will take ota update.

so you should wait . rumor is official oreo release planned for MAY.

Should probably be able to manually install if wanted, but If you have choice, might be advised to hold of on unlocking. I think the unlock is what prevented mine from accepting OTA.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] MikeyLee:
I'm not as worried about OTA as I am bricking the phone by installing TWRP. Once Oreo is released it should be easy to manual install it. I just saw on a thread where some people had issues with their devices being bricked after trying to flash TWRP.

Hi!

I tried to follow the tutorial, but I get stuck in the 4th step...

When I run "fastboot oem unlock

I noticed in the video of Tarek: "How To Unlock The Booatloader and Root The Honor 7X" (I can't post external links bcs I'm new user) he has "FRP unlock" (2:30) wich I don't have... (I just don't have the line "FRP ..." when I'm in the bootloader)

But I need help for my Honor. I'm on Oreo stock and whant to root, especially for ViPER4Android.

I don't whant to mess up. I read a lot of guide but all is different, some say flash TWRP in recovery and recovery2. Other just recovery or recovery2 to save stock recovery. And other say to flash no verity!!

I'm kind lost... Which TWRP choose, if I flash just recovery2 is decrypt or encrypt?

Plz help
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] mrmazak:
Good thing you asked. Because the files (partitions) you mentioned do not exist in Oreo

They changed the format and name to recovery_ramdisk.

And I have been following some discussions on development, all say sound mods do not work.

Now that could be bad information about no sound mods, I am not sure.

Keep looking for definite Answers before attempting.

Are you saying the root method change with Oreo?

The recovery_ramdisk is recovery2 right?
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] mrmazak:
Of course the root method is different. It is now a different OS.

I'm currently struggling to root my Honor 7x. I updated it to Oreo yesterday and can't manage to flash a usable TWRP. I tried with the Mate 10 TWRP, but I have a few errors ('Failed to mount '/cache' (invalid argument)', 'Failed to mount '/cust' (invalid argument)', 'Failed to mount '/data' (invalid argument)' ,'Failed to mount '/system' (invalid argument)', 'Failed to mount '/vendor' (invalid argument)') when trying to flash SuperSU or Magisk.

Does any of you managed to have a working rooted Oreo Honor 7x? How have you done it?

Thanks!

Sounds like your update did not complete successfully.

Look on about phone page and see if build number has your correct model and cust version listed
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Build number is bnd-l21 8.0.0.02(C432log). Seems like it's the good one.

Custom version is CUSTC432D1. I haven't found any piece of information about that number. Is this the good one?
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] mrmazak:
Isn't it supposed to be like 8.0.0.320 or something, not .02 at end

And I just found out the mate 10 recovery is not able to mount the /system as writeable. So it cannot make changes to /system only if it is whole system image change.

Have not done root yet, have read some comments that say don't flash it with recovery just patch ramdisk with majisk manager, others that say just it. But AFAIK superSU does not understand how to patch our treble ramdisk. Since it is not together with kernel for a traditional boot.img
