Your support is very helpful, thanks!

I have problems on the steps to reproduce, even after reading your guide :')

This is what I do:

1. Wipe Data/Factory Reset + Wipe cache with stock recovery

2. Flash TWRP

3. Open TWRP, clean data, system and also cache + dalvik

4. Reboot the phone to a fully working with B182, in English with Dual SIM fully recognised

5. What I have to do from now on to have a fully stock experience (remove custom Kernel, reflash stock recovery and erecover, re-lock bootloader and fully ready to Oreo)?

Can you please guide me? :)

Thanks and sorry for my problems, but I work with Nexus devices thare a bit more 'elastic' in flashing :)
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] veromax:
The kernel is stock. You just have to flash the eRecovery and recovery. That's all.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] baffo92:
Ok, thanks!

This is what I did before, but I can't do a factory reset due to the problems described (Radio FM not working, NFC not working).

I can't also relock the bootloader, because the phone will boot to erecovery (recovery2) and won't let me reach the boot of the ROM. Have you got any suggestion?

If leave it as it is now (unlocked bootloader with stock recovery1 and recovery2) will Oreo arrive without any problems?

Your support is awesome, thanks :)
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] veromax:
If you now take my UPDATE.APP via dload the problems should be gone.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] baffo92:
Sounds good!

If I flash the stock recovery, then update officially with an UPDATE.APP from SD Card everything should be ok.

Where can I find your UPDATE.APP? I didn't find it in your MEGA Folder :eek:

Thanks, again, for your incredible support!

[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
After downloading the UPDATE. ZIP you unpack the archive.

Now create the folder dload on the ExtSd

and copies the resulting UPDATE.APP there.

Now in the dialer with the input of *#*#2846579#*#*

call up the secret menu and perform the update.

If you can't boot anymore, you start

the update as follows, without USB connection:

Vol. + and vol. - and power and press together and

hold on tight. The device goes off and on again.

As soon as text appears on the display,

release all keys. Now start after the update process within a few seconds.

After this update the firmware should be repaired.

TWRP and root do not need to be removed as they are overwritten during the update.

The FRP is then locked again.

A new unlocking with the Huawei unlock code

can be carried out.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] baffo92:
Thanks for the Link!

This seems exactly the scenario I want to reproduce... I'll download your file and then try to update my PRA-LX1.

I'll let you know :)
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] baffo92:
Here I am [MENTION=7295200]ChinHon[/MENTION]

I followed your step and the update went fine from the first time! When the phone booted, bootlader was locked but FRP was unlocked, so I went to Developer Options and disabled it, then I did a Factory Reset.

Now I have phone that boot perfectly with no messages and, if I enter Bootloader (fastboot), I can read 'PHONE Locked' and 'FRP Lock', so my Phone is now fully stock and it boots like no one modded it!

Have to test the NFC, but FM Radio is there and Camera (that force-closed itself at the beginning) works perfectly.

But I have a question related to the UPDATE.APP: with your TWRP backup EMUI was 5.0.1 (now with UPDATE.APP is 5.0) and patch were from September (if I remeber correctly), and now they are from August.

Don't know what is this related to, but I found a very relevant difference from the other stock ROM version I had in the past: when you do the first setup the companion app to clone other phone information is different, more polished and better organised.

Thanks for the support!

I'll try to check if everything works.

Just a tip for whom is trying to install the update via SD: I used a Samsung 64 GB SD formatted in exFAT
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
Thanks for your feedback. I am glad that everything worked out well. The UPDATE. APP is from september. That's why the old google patch. At the next OTA, everything will be up-to-date again.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
Thank you very much for the praise and detailed description of your approach. Because I'm a guy of short words, your report here is a perfect extension for the thread. The users can inform themselves well with it, because the matter can always be somewhat different with many.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] baffo92:
Glad to be helpful :)

Found a bug, but I think its presence may vary by the phone state of the user who tries to follow the guide: MagazineUnlock is not working and it's impossible to activate it from Settings menu... you can download the lockscreen photos, but you can't use them. I think a newer firmware version, maybe received by OTA, will fix this.

I think we have to wait a version that is grater than B182 or other users to test the TWRP Backup.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
Just realized that's the same with me. That's gone after the next OTA.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] sambastrakan:
Hi

I'm on stock PRA-LX1C432B170, no root, no twrp (for now), can I flash this to update to B182 ? Does it worth it ?

Also, where B182 comes from ? Not even in Huawei Firmware Finder... In HFF there are B181, 183, 191, 192... Huawei is a bit weird !

Thank you
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
Now I've unlocked the phone again. Then twrp flashes and tries to restore a backup. But the data partition will not be found during reboot. Brick.

I have temporarily blocked the UPDATE. APP.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] baffo92:
I kindly suggest to stay on PRA-LX1C432B170, it's not worth it... I was damaging my phone by doing it.

---------- Post added at 12:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:04 AM ----------

I don't understand the problem: the phone is unlocked with TWRP but data partition is not accessible? What happened with UPDATE.APP?

I fixed a similar problem by locking and unlocking the bootloader... i had a frozen touch in TWRP and re-lock/unlock the bootloader worked like a charm and gave me the ability to restore the phone.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] sambastrakan:
Good to know that. I'll wait an ota from Huawei. Thank you !!
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
I've unlocked the phone again. Then twrp flashed and my last backup restored. Device stopped booting. Then I repeated the UPDATE. APP. Now I'm in BL errormode. No recovery, load failed. Adb's disconnected, too. The normal bootloader cannot be started.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] baffo92:
Try these steps:

1. Phone is shut-down

2. Press and continue to press only the VOL Down button

3. While pressing the VOL Down button attach the USB to your PC and it should automatically go Bootloader

4. Check if FRP is Locked and Bootloader is Locked, you can have two situtations:

-> If FRP is unlocked you can easily unlock bootloader and try the steps we said before

-> If FRP is locked we have a problem because we can't unlock the bootloader, so it will be more difficult

In the first case you are good to go and you can try to follow the steps I wrote.

In the second case is complicated because bootloader can't be unlocked.

Let me know :)
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
It always boots only in error mode.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] baffo92:
It's more complicated than what I tought.

In this state can you launch fastboot commands?

If so, you can use Multi-Tool by Team MT to try to Unbrick the phone (Link Here: http://pro-teammt.ru/huawei-multi-tool-eng/)

Let me know.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
No fastboot commands. No connection via adb. No boot buttons combi works. The trick with the empty battery doesn't work either.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
:cool: Brick solved.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] KuGeSch:
Congrats!

:cool:

How did you manage that?
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] baffo92:
Happy to hear that!

I'm curious about that :)
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
Battery discharged. Then start with vol - and power. If the device vibrates, disconnect the usb-connection immediately. This is how the fast boot mode starts. Now forced the UPDATE. APP installed.

[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] Jr'Z:
Works fine !

Hello,

I've followed the procedure to restore my PRA-LX1C432B180 which was'nt working anymore.

Indeed, I'd lost all the specific drivers due to the following events: (I was trying to force the update to solve a largely spread issue about GPS fix failing after 15/20 minutes since the last b180 update)

installing TWRP, but the "regular" one, which led to "/data not mounted" printed in red...

deleting the /data partition, therefore all my drivers were lost (but I did not know yet)

installing the B193 from a full OTA, but then again it failed to find some partitions... (and yeah, I was "hoping" that would fix by itself :fingers-crossed:)

In other words, my phone was nearly completely bricked. I could start it, but instead of Huawei logo, I had the "regular ANDROID" logo at start-up, but the micro, FP sensor, etc. were not working anymore.

Then, I downloaded the B182 provided, I followed the instructions (apart from reinstalling a stock recovery to perform a factory reset), and everything went back to normal.

Now, I have a B182 available, I just had to set my Google account, reinstall software... Et voilà ! (And moreover, after reinstalling SuperSU (dunno why, but did not trigger when apps were requesting root access), I've now a root installed!)

I ran 16 kms this morning without losing the GPS fix (before, the Huawei Health app was failing at roughly 8 kms...)

Thank you a lot for your help, you saved my week-end!

Best regards

[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] angixspirit:
I applied all this correctly, all the procedure it finally went well, the bootloader is rebloque automatically after the update.app (I check with fastboot oem locked) after I made a factory reset via recovery stock, everything worked, but I stay on emui 5.0 and not 5.01 patch of the month of August, and no update proposed (even with hisuite)

thank you for everything
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] :
No, that is not necessary.

Hey man, I followed your post and did everything right, and my phone is running fine thanks to you. One thing though, I didn't notice that this was a dual SIM version and I have a single SIM version. Can you provide a way to fix it? And how can I flash the oeminfo using dd? I've never used dd before, and I also don't want to screw up my phone! Thanks in advance!!

Screw all this futzing and bollocks, I'll never buy another Huawei piece of crap as long as I breathe.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] marstonpear:
Why though? I think P8 Lite 2017 is a good device for its price range. Also if you don't want to mess with all these things, you can flash stock erecovery then turn off your phone, hold Vol. up+Power buttons and get into erecovery, then do a recover your phone from there. It will delete all your apps and data, and will download a stock firmware for you but you'll have a brand new device. Only problem I had with this method is that I have a single SIM device but a dual SIM firmware, nonetheless it doesn't ruin my experience on the phone. Hope I helped. :p
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] mbwf:
Yes yes of course, I know that, but it still exhibits inexcusable lag for a phone with THREE GIGABYTES of RAM; it behaves WORSE than many phones with 512MB RAM. I gave away my flawless Moto G3 16GB for this poor excuse of an experience. The sooner I sell it and free myself from the shackles of this awful experience, the better. I've not unlocked/flashed OR modded it in any manner at all, all I've done is upgraded to B193 - still a joke, and the internal memory is inexcusably bloated.

No no, I'm no one's schmuck, this garbage has been reset many times and is VERY poorly supported; it is going.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PokeMutt:
So I pushed a ROM through fastboot on my XT1540 and all fine, boots up with no problems. However, it appears that each time I turn off the phone completely, it automatically boots back up into fastboot. Tried selecting the "Power Off" option aswell as "Restart Bootloader", but no success, the phone will just not turn off and and restarts into fastboot mode again.

Any ideas on what's going on?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Zorachus:
I've been running Nova since I got my Pixel 2 XL earlier this month, but just for fun wanted to try out the stock default Pixel launcher. I like the default launcher for now, may or may not stick with it ( been using Nova on every phone for years now )

But when using the stock launcher, I noticed the 'At A Glance' widget is just showing me Day and Date, and not the weather next to it. I tried to remove that widget and use my good old Chronus widget looks 99.99% exactly the same but is more customization and I can have it with the weather to the right looking just like the Google one., but it looks stupid if I can't remove the stock one.

Any help would be appreciated thx
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Paradoxxx:
Enable location ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Zorachus:
Let me try that. I only use Location when running Maps, never else. It's silly the weather app doesn't let us manually enter on our prefered location.

Ok I turned Location / GPS on in the drop down notification shade, still no weather on the widget.

Wish I could just remove the default widget and put my Chronus widget there instead. But that's what Nova is for I guess.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Zorachus:
I followed this guys guide, and it still isn't working;

Swipe from home screen to your cards.

Tap on the three vertical dots in the top right hand corner (I'm original pixel on 8.1 mind, you're on the newer pixel 8.0).

Select "customize feed".

Scroll down to "Weather", select "view all settings". Ensure "weather updates" and "weather updates for your location" are both on. It might take a while if these were off for the widget to appear.

After that (if it's still not working) you can go to the weather card itself (search weather after swiping to your cards and enter the weather card). Tap the three horizontal lines in the top left corner.

Select "settings".

Select "Your feed"

Under "Get notified about", two things to enter and turn on:

"Weather alerts for substantial changes"

And

"Current Weather condition"

I did all of that, and still no weather on the At A Glance widget on the home screen.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] v12xke:
According to the Pixel Users Forum, open Customize>>Weather and leave On updates for your location but turn OFF Weather updates fixes the problem after a reboot and a few minutes wait. Give it a whirl, and let us know.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Zorachus:
Did that, and still no weather on the widget.

Wish I could just remove the widget from the home screen, and us my Chronus widget instead.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] v12xke:
I've been using the Chronus Pixel 2+ widget on my homescreen from day one. Nova Launcher ftw!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Paradoxxx:
You also need to use location in high accuracy mode.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Zorachus:
Oh so that's why it's not working on. Screw that, I'm not wasting battery just to see the current weather.

That's why I like my Chronus widget, it looks exactly the same, but can have the location entered manually, and not need to have my battery killer GPS on all day long, that's just rediculous
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Paradoxxx:
It does not use that much battery tbh. I can hold 2 days without any issues.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] v12xke:
The Chronus Pixel 2+ widget is awesome. Depending on where you click on it, it will open clock, calendar, weather app of choice, or settings. I set weather source to Dark Sky and it works great.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Zorachus:
It is a great widget but unfortunately the stock at a glance widget as permanently stuck on the home screen I would like to remove it and put the Kronos widget there instead but you can't do that when running the pixel launcher
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Qw12:
Stock widget does the same. Calendar/Weather/Clock. Was pleasantly surprised about it when moved from old phone with Nova Launcher to Pixel Launcher.
