Try reinstalling TWRP, download latest firmware from firmware finder and update with this tool.

[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] electric bill:
You said that you got it unlocked, so I'm assuming you have the adb tools and know how to use them. Here's what I found. I used the twrp image from this page:

https://xdaforums.com/p10-lite/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-t3783447

I used the most recent, which is twrp_p10_lite_0.4.img . This is assuming that you can still connect to the phone with fastboot. I think that I got into fastboot using vol down with the power button. Get a cmd window (assuming windows pc) and Flash twrp using:

fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp_p10_lite_0.4.img

Follow the instructions on that page about removing the usb cable on reboot. Now, if you want to load a stock image, there are three available using team MT firmware finder. Their web page is here:

https://xdaforums.com/tools/general/huawei-firmware-finder-team-mt-t3469146

There is a link there to download a pc version to find the firmware. It's beta, so be patient. The three versions available are, in chronological order:

BND-L34CC567B330 (8.0.0.330)

BND-L34C567CUSTC567D1B344 (8.0.0.344)

BND-L34C567CUSTC567D1B351 (8.0.0.351)

The last one is the Jan 2109 release. The one from Feb is not listed yet. Download all three files from the version that you pick. PM me if you can't find the files. To install them with twrp, you'll need to get HRU updater. I used the latest version which is HuRUpdater_0.4.zip to install the OS files. you can get it here:

https://xdaforums.com/honor-9/development/tool-flash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279

Follow the instructions on this web page closely, especially the part about renaming. For example, the files would be renamed like this:

update_full_BND-L34_hw_usa.zip -----> update_all_hw.zip

update_data_full_public.zip -----> update_data_public.zip

DO NOT RENAME update.zip

After those installs, you should have a completely stock Oreo. I don't remember if twrp is still installed after that, so you might have to flash it again using fastboot. Get back into twrp and install Magisk to get root. Don't bother with no-verity as it's not needed with this version of twrp. I got the latest version of Magisk from their website:

https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445

Install it with twrp. You can also get the latest app apk there.

good luck
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] WarGames92:
Well, thanks to your (incredibly appreciated) help I had it fixed....and then I was an idiot and bricked it for good (that part wasn't your fault).

Went into Fastboot and tried flashing the TWRP you recommended from the thread you sent (twrp_p10_lite_0.4.img)

However, doing so kept bringing up the error "writing 'recovery'... FAILED (remote: size too large)"

I then retraced my steps and installed the TWRP from my initial foray into unlocking the bootloader from the guide linked to on the OP of this thread.

I used fastboot to reimage the original version of TWRP from that guide using the specified commands:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash recovery2 recovery.img

And it worked PERFECTLY - I had TWRP 3.1.1 back.

Then I did something really stupid. I figured I should put in the newer TWRP you mentioned, so I did the following commands:

fastboot flash recovery twrp_p10_lite_0.4.img

fastboot flash recovery2 twrp_p10_lite_0.4.img

You can probably guess the result...

Error: Func NO : 10 (boot image)

Error: Func NO : 2 (load failed)

Now I've got no Fastboot access and presumably a hardbrick.

I'm guessing if I *was* going to be stupid and not quit while I was ahead, I should have renamed the newer TWRP to recovery.img before flashing it.

Again, none of this is on you - you actually had me fixed. My stupidity messing with this stuff when it's been years since I last did is the culprit.

If I can't finagle a simple exchange at Walmart, will Huawei even touch this thing since the bootloader is unlocked? :eek:

It was just $124 plus tax, but I'd still rather not have that $125 be a paperweight. I'm my own worst enemy.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] electric bill:
So sorry to hear that man. Did you use the command line "fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp_p10_lite_0.4.img" when you were trying to flash twrp at first? .
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] mrmazak:
based on your commands that worked. Your phone is not updated to oreo. And the images you tried to update to are oreo twrp. SO this was the issue.

go back to flash the twrp that worked. and verify it loads.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] WarGames92:
The bad news is that going back to the TWRP that worked was a no go given my inability to re-access fastboot. The good news is that Walmart did an exchange no questions asked. Thanks for all of your help, guys!

[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] Tecalote:
No, it can't work on newer Huawei devices, because the Security Patch Level doesn't allow.

At the moment there's no paid service which can read the bootloader code.

Possibly Funky Huawei has a method (I didn't look) but if, I wouldn't recommend, because it makes some changes and doesn't offer the original Bootloader Unlock code, This causes probably problems in the future.

---------- Post added at 12:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:11 AM ----------

You can just wait if there will be a new method in the future for reading the code.

At the moment there's no way.

Ministry of Solutions and imei.by were able to find Bootloader Unlock Codes for a while, but for the moment their service doesn't work.

Thanks for the tutorial.

It worked for me after I downgraded.

I had to downgrade my Mate se to this BND-L34CC567B330 (8.0.0.330). That was the only downgrade I did. I don't if works with higher versions. I used Firmware Finder Rewriter 4.04.21.1 to do the downgrade.

Help me please with the "manufacture mode"

[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] extradition:
Hi. I'm trying to downgrade from 8.0.0.352 to 8.0.0.330. I've tried all of the methods I could find online, including Firmware Finder Rewriter 4.04.21.1 which kept crashing. I used a different version of Firmware Finder but all it helped me do was to find the firmware but not actually downgrade.

What method did you use for the downgrade? Thx!
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] akivel:
So, the Firmware Finder Rewriter it crashed here too if I use the main page.

The name of the video tutorial was [HOW TO] HiSuite + DNS DOWNGRADE HUAWEI & HONOR DEVICES via FIRMWARE FINDER by TEAM MT

The steps if I recall are. I don't know how dangerous this is. I have a Mate SE

1. Install Huawei suite HiSuite 5.0.2.301. ( I'm not really sure if was that, maybe was the 5.0.2.300, I have both downloaded here )

2. At the Firmware Finder Rewriter click at Common Base tab and search for BND-L34CC567B330 (8.0.0.330). There will be two options, they both seem to be the same. I don't know which one I used. Copy the changelog.

3. Click on Proxy Server (The cloud with the square at the middle). Paste the changelog link you copied. Click set, register for the update. When I click the "Get information about...". I only show get "Current firmware for install", Blank Line and "Firmware version" Blank.

4. Set Up the DNS on your computer or router or whatever. I used the IP that their Android app tells to use. The app says to use 188.225.84.142 and use query.hicloud.com/checkConnect.action to see if the DNS is working. I had to disable IPV6 on my computer. You will get this message on the browser "Connected to TeamMT Server" if the DNS is working.

5. Open the HiSuite. Click update, if it shows that you want to update to the version 330. I think you are set to downgrade. Click on update and do the downgrade.

Ok, the only thing that I was afraid while doing this was. The Firmware Finder app detects my phone as BND-L34"C"567 (One C) and the firmware I search was for the BND-L34"CC"567 (two C). With one C the app only shows downgrade of the version down to 344, with two C if goes to 330. Maybe you could just search in the app for the BND-L34CC567 and do that downgrade from there, I don't know but I would have probably done that way.

Good Luck
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] mcmurphy_rp:
I'm trying to downgrade but my Mate SE won't connect to the earlier versions of HiSuite (5.0.2.300, 5.0.2.301). Any suggestions for how to make that happen? (No problem connecting to the current version of HiSuite.) Thanks!
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] akivel:
I didn't have this problem, however, I think I replicated your problem by going into developer options and disabling "USB debugging" and "Allow ADB debugging in charge only", either one would lose connection to the computer. While the cable is connected, I need to turn on "Allow ADB debugging in charge only mode" first, then "USB debugging", or turn both on and plug the cable. So try turning both on. Besides that, I can't tell how to solve your problem.

Thanks for the reply!
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] Hailtek:
I see that the first page hasn't been updated in over a year, is there anything I need to know. I have a Huawei Mate SE, BND-L34C567b130, EMUI version 5.1, Android version 7.0.

I just want to make sure that if I follow the first page I will run into no problems.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] peestandingup:
Yeah, you're fine with that version & won't have to downgrade or anything. Just follow the bootloader unlock procedure using DC Unlocker.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] Hailtek:
Ok thanks, my computer restarted after I got my unlock code and now I can't find it? What do I do?

EDIT - I just paid another 4 dollars, screw it. Installed the TWRP got that going, installed Magisk and now bootloop :/
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] peestandingup:
Be advised that twrp is a little flaky on these devices, so you may wanna stick with the factory recovery for now & flash IMG Roms via Fastboot (I recommend Descendant or Open Kirin, Descendant has updated support for EMUI 8 base though).

Also in order to use Magisk, you need to extract the Ramdisk, patch it with Magisk Manager then flash it back via Fastboot. Flashing it the normal way via twrp won't work.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] Hailtek:
would have loved if someone told me that when i asked if the front page of this post worked and was up to date because it doesn't mention anything of this. how do i extract and patch and do all this if i cant even get into the phone now?
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] sliding_billy:
I am not positive that Magisk not installing over TWRP is accurate. I haven't had to install Magisk from scratch on a Mate SE probably since last November, but I definitely did it with TWRP (and have used every in-place stable update in Magisk with direct install since then). I used twrp_p10_lite_0.3 and Magisk at that point was probably v17.1.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] peestandingup:
My post was strictly about bootloader unlocking & sounds like you got ahead of yourself w trying to flash new zips on old non treble enabled Android 7 to gain root. Specifics are important regarding this stuff & I don't mind helping, but you need to ask if unsure about anything at all seeing as how this is a bootloader unlocking thread.

The thread provides all the answers but the steps are be on old version of EMUI for Android 7 (so u can get the unlock code), unlock bootloader, take the Android 8 system update so you can install treble ROMs (u can't on 7) then flash open kirin or whatever else that works. If you want root, you'll need to look up how to extract the Ramdisk for your build, patch it & flash it back.

If you borked your system without a backup & can't boot anymore its not the end of the world. You're still unlocked, still have Fastboot & twrp if necessary. Look up how to recover back to stock. Or just flash the stock recovery back & do a system recovery through that.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] Hailtek:
The end of the post links to a page that tells you how to root and install Magisk, and that doesn't mention anything of the sort. But I understand. Can I just flash a stock image, I found this which is exactly what I need.

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=75984678&postcount=16
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] peestandingup:
I don't know what that is & neither do you. Before I start getting flash happy again, I'd do what I suggested earlier & flash back your factory recovery. I'm assuming you don't have that, so boot to eRecovery to download it again. Then do a factory reset once you have it via the factory recovery. THEN boot into your system like normal & check for updates so you can install Oreo.

Don't worry about twrp, magisk or anything else right now man. You're getting ahead of yourself again & first thing's first. Put your system back in order first so you can get to Oreo.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] Hailtek:
Oh, I don't want oreo, and I don't want to install custom roms, just want to get rooted. That file is a dump of the same build I have. The only recovery I have is TWPR
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] sliding_billy:
I would take the OTA to Oreo before rooting. The OTA will still install if you are bootloader unlocked. That's what I did with my sons' two Mate SEs. See my post about installing Magisk with TWRP.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] Hailtek:
An app I use daily doesn't work with Oreo, is there a need to ota to oreo? And which post was that exactly? I'm just looking for a stock rom to flash with TWRP but I'm not finding one anywhere, I found a stock clean dump but I'm not sure what to do with that.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] sliding_billy:
I have only rooted with Magisk and twrp_p10_lite_0.3 on Oreo. Not sure about rooting Nougat anymore since the old root instructions certainly would have used SuperSU and a differnt TWRP. Here is the link I was talking about to get to stock recovery. This link again was for an Oreo build, but I'm guessing the instructions are the same for Nougat in this case. https://xdaforums.com/honor-7x/help/flashing-to-stock-recovery-help-t3938835
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] Hailtek:
Thank you I got it working unbricked, just need to root it now. Are you saying I can't install Magisk on Nougat?
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] sliding_billy:
Based on the instructions in the original post in this thread, it can be installed (those instructions are from before Oreo) but they call for versions that I have not used. Glad you got it unbricked at least. Factory reset in stock recovery?
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] Hailtek:
Yeah factory reset in a stock recovery that did by using MultiTool8 along with a clean dumped zip of the exact BND-L34 I have. Now in TWRP however (the TWRP from this post) I cannot make a backup as I get error 255. I guess its okay if I don't have a backup since I've been through this before, but I'm not sure what to do at this point to get Magisk working. Following the instruction in the front post of this thread is what caused bootloop (which was to flash magisk and then flash no verity after). I read some posts that said no verity was not needed anymore, and then some other posts that said I had to patch the ramdisk? So I'm not sure exactly what step I need to take to root atm

Ok I'm thinking that it can't backup because of the encryption

EDIT - In fact I think my whole problem in the first place is the encryption, what do I do about that
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] sliding_billy:
That was the point of twrp_p10_lite_0.3. It could view encrypted file info and not need no verify to be ran. The hard part was what I have typed below (from the TWRP instructions). That unplug and hold the volume up button thing after fastboot reboot is a PITA. It took me a couple of boots into the system and rerunning the TWRP ramdisk install and reboot to catch it and get back into TRWP. Then all was fine with Magisk install.

* As soon as you execute the restart command, remove the USB cable and keep pressing Volume UP so the device will boot to TWRP. This is to avoid that the device boot to OS overwriting TWRP recovery.

That was why I recommended doing it after upgrading. Besides the fact that upgrading after root is a PITA all of my instructions are based on Oreo.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] Hailtek:
Alright looks like I'll be upgrading then. Thanks for all the help. Why do I not see a system update setting? Would it be fine to just flash Oreo from one of these and not lose my unlocked boot loader?

https://huaweiflash.com/how-to-flash-huawei-mate-se-stock-firmware-all-firmwares/
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] sliding_billy:
Glad to help, and good luck. I remember the update showing up fairly quickly but not immediately (Huawei update notifications are pretty annoying actually and can't be turned off without deleting or freezing the updater app in Titanium. I'm guessing a day and a few reboots it will be there. I've never manually flashed an update, but I have not heard of the bootloader being relocked by one. Plus, you have the unlock code. I would personally be patient, read up on all of the root procedures, etc and be ready when the Oreo update arrives. Root isn't going anywhere.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] Hailtek:
From search it looks like its pretty common for the system update to be available, maybe on the rom I flashed. For some reason I can't flash that version of TWRP. Doing it via cmd it says "partition length get error" and using Multi-Tool to try it says the size or path does not match the file system markup.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] peestandingup:
Yeah, remember when I told you not to manually flash that zip file from some random dude & instead use the stock recovery to factory reset? That's why. That system update pane won't come back with your current setup now.

You'd sure save yourself a lot of jams & follow up questions to get you out of the jams if you'd just listen bro.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] tracersgta:
Hey, for any noobs like me wondering, I'll put it here:

If you get No Phone Detected error - Install HiSuite and connect your phone to it and make sure that Manufacturer mode is enabled.

If you get unknown security patch/unknown chipset error - I assume you are using latest EMUI 8.0 patch. Rollback to EMUI 5.1 using HiSuite (easiest way), then repeat steps in the first post. You should be able to get code and unlock bootloader. After that you can update to Oreo again but with bootloader unlocked! Then do whatever you want.
[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] TheMadScientist:
So at current I found I am on the latest update so code reading isn't working. Ive tried the hisuite and it does not show rollback options. I now have all the update files from firmware finder.

[Honor 7X  Guides, News, & Discussion] sliding_billy:
I would say check all the normal stuff when fastboot issues arise. Check that you have the most recent version of fastboot/ADB (Platform Tools). Try different cables, different USB ports, different computer. Are other fastboot commands even working?

I personally don't use the device, but both of my sons have the Huawei Mate SE (BND-L34) that I maintain. At at the time of unlock they had Oreo installed (November 2018 security patch maybe). It is very possible that Huawei/Honor implimented something in a security patch that keeps the unlock code from working if you have a version at or newer than the patch.
