Well I successfully reverted my phone back to Nougat. I ended up using the TWRP found here https://xdaforums.com/honor-view-10/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-t3769917. It's the closest to a fully working TWRP I could find. Everything works except it can't mount two partitions "ODM" and something I can't remember. Nothing that prevented me from going back to stock Nougat. Before I went back to Nougat I tried flashing Oreo again in the new Oreo TWRP. Things worked alot better in Oreo. The Camera worked but I didn't test the Phone app. The keyboard was missing so I couldn't setup Wifi. I also found out that there wasn't enough space on the system partition to flash the nano version of Gapps and I did't try the pico version. I think in order for me to truly try Oreo I need a different way to flash it or a fully functional version of TWRP.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] SuperSwordSmasher:
You Could Should Of Put An Apk of an keybaord app for oreo before you went to oreo. Then you could use freely wit a keyboard.

Then you could install it in oreo
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
I'm not done trying yet. Right now I have it back to the way it was. To get as far as I did I had to flash Oreo twice once in the Nougat version of TWRP and again in the Oreo version of TWRP. The problem is that TWRP can't flash all the partitions because it can't mount two important partitions for it to work right. When I went back to Nougat I had to flash twice to get every thing working. Once in Oreo TWRP and then again in Nougat TWRP. The problem is the way I chose to flash the Oreo ROM. I will go through this thread and see how they flashed the Chinese version and see if I can do the same. As long as my bootloader is unlocked I'm sure I will be able to recover. I have had my phone in worst condition than this before.

Edit: maybe I could try this https://xdaforums.com/honor-8/how-to/guide-flashing-unapproved-firmwares-t3668306
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] SuperSwordSmasher:
Oh
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
Success! The reason my previous attempts failed was due to my ignorance. I went and downloaded all the files in the file list from the FF website. Used the HuRUpdater method using the Nougat version of TWRP. After I rebooted I was meet with the setup wizzard. Everything seems to work. It was pretty easy to do. Now I have Oreo on my Honor 8. Although I am feeling pretty dumb I didn't do it right the first time.:o
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] SuperSwordSmasher:
Bruh, Ur Soo Lucky For Having Oreo Now, But Unlucky I Cant, No fair man :(

---------- Post added at 02:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:56 AM ----------

Can You Tell Me Ur Whole Step Process Of What You Did To Succesfully Get Oreo?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
I assume you have TWRP installed. Also I am using the firmware for my device your device might be different. First I went to Firmware Finder http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=FRD-&firmware_page=0 and downloaded the Oreo update for my device "FRD-L04C567B520 (8.0.0.520)". Left click on the "filelist" and it will display three download links. One for "update.zip", One for "update_data_full_public.zip" and One for update_full_FRD-L04_hw_usa.zip. After That go here https://xdaforums.com/honor-9/development/tool-flash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279 and download HuRUpdater. Create a folder on your sd card and call it whatever you want. Put HuRUpdater and the three firmware files in that folder. Rename "update_data_full_public.zip" to "update_data_public.zip" and "update_full_FRD-L04_hw_usa.zip" to "update_all_hw.zip". Boot into TWRP and do a wipe and then only flash "HuRUpdater_0.3.zip" it will flash the firmware for you. I ended up with three errors which didn't seem to matter. After you flash reboot and enjoy.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] SuperSwordSmasher:
Hmm... what do you mean "wipe" what should i wipe? Everything?

Thx Too

Should Install HurUpdater With A Twrp File Too, Or Do I Do It After It Boots?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
Just the basic wipe worked for me. just select wipe from the TWRP menu. HurUpdater is a TWRP flashable zip file. It is a program that runs in TWRP. The link I posted explains how to use it.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] thinhster:
Let me know how the experience is compared to nougat. ??
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] SuperSwordSmasher:
So You Did Not Put A TWRP Along Side With Emui 8 before flashing the hurupdater file? SO it should look like this the? Without a twrp custom recovery? I Dont Wanna Brick My Device Again.

So i do a wipe,

Then Flash All Those 4 Files With HurUpdater?

Or Do I Need To Add A Emui 8 Custom Recovery?

That Will Make It 5 files
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MysTiCy:
-Normal wipe in TWRP.

-Then with those four files on SD-card, install HurUpdater. Then press volume down when it says, and it will install the firmware.

-download this https://xdaforums.com/honor-view-10/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-t3769917

-in fastboot, install with "sudo fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp_bkl_0.7.img"

That's what i did and now i have working Oreo with TWRP :)

EDIT: Appears that i can't install Magisk with that TWRP.

EDIT2: Appears that Magisk 16.6 is not installing but v16 works!
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
I'm running the stock recovery. Just flash HurUpdater.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] John2811:
Btw, my Honor 8 (L09) just recived B407 here in Germany, so can't be to long till Oreo.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sbodezzi:
B407 arrived also in Italy.

Now we can just hope that the openkirin team support our chipset and then we can flash any treble rom.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Juhkimo:
It is already supported. Check their telegram group for download links. At the monent LOS, Omni and Carbon roms are supported. Support for RR is coming any time soon. :)
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sbodezzi:
Yeah but I heard that camera doesn't work. BTW in the openkirin site our honor8 isn't supported yet
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Juhkimo:
On their private beta builds camera work on honor 8. It is still not uploaded on their website
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sbodezzi:
Where can I find that? I searching around and I can't find any thread about honor8 rom with treble
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] SuperSwordSmasher:
Hmmmm... Okay Thanks

I Think Im Gonna Use The TWRP In Multi Tool That Supports EMUI 8. It Shows Me Some TWRP For EMUI 8 For The Honor 8 When I Click "EMUI 8"
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Juhkimo:

Search for latest LOS, Omni or Carbon rom.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] SuperSwordSmasher:
Is This The Right Wipe Where It Says "Factory Reset"?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] SuperSwordSmasher:
There Is Also 3 Oreo Firmwares, Which One Should I Download?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
That version doesn't work for the Honor 8. It locks the system partition in read only. Use the one I posted. It is the closest thing to a working TWRP we have.

---------- Post added at 07:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:31 PM ----------

Don't use the FF app go to the website and download it. I posted the link in my instructions. Also don't flash the emui 8 TWRP until after you flash your phone. You might want to wait for the ota. I don't think your reading my instructions carefully enough.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] krchi:
I keep getting failed when I try to install that twrp.

EDIT: I tried again and it magically worked.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MysTiCy:
I wonder too that what's with three copies of the same firmware showing? Just a bug?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
They might be revisions. If you look at the last number in the column there different. But I am only guessing.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] SuperSwordSmasher:
I Think Im Going With The Bottom One, It Has The Highest Number

Its The Same Thing For The Website Version Too Hopefully It Works

I Think The Website Firmware Finder Is Better, I Think Im Gonna Use That For Downloading Firmwares For Now On.

I have a FRD-L09C432 with an italian IMEI. I have just checked on FF and the firmware is not approved, but I found only the 3 full-ota oreo updates. Is it normal or we have to wait the ota update?

[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersad:
Honor 6x and 8 lite are getting GPU turbo update by October but not Honor 8
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] NyoSan:

[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] logan517:
I've installed the HiSuite on my PC, but no orea update is shown

It tells me, my Version FRD-L09C432B407 is the newest :rolleyes:

Is there a way to force this?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Gerd3000:
If you are stuck with an older firmware, go to system update, klick on the three dots and than "download the latest full package"

Use Wifi because it will download complete firmware (2.5 GB)
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sideness:
I don't think so. I also think the HiSuite method is "fake". What I mean is that since Honor 8 launched, we always had the possibility to upgrade with Hisuite, nothing new for Oreo's update. In either cases, your IMEI is sent to huawei to check if a new update is available. Checking that from your phone or HiSuite is the same thing in my opinion.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sergio27:
Same situation! Still impossible to find b407
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] dante96:
I had the same problem some days ago but it came by itself. We need to be patient...
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] neo76:
Did you tried the "download full package option" in the update menu ?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sergio27:
Yep! But is not called "full package" but "download latest package"... Is the first option of menu, same as your photo
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Gerd3000:
If this doesn't work you can try via Firmware Finder.

Here is a How-to:

https://www.androidpit.com/firmware-updates-huawei-honor
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] logan517:
This is displayed to me (my device: FRD-L09C432

FRD-L09-C432B521 (8.0.0.521)

156472

FullOTA-MF-PV

2018.07.26

but if I go to check firmware access, I get this message: This firmware is not approved for installation

would that work anyway?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Gerd3000:
I can't guarantee that. Check the B407 update from 2018.07.10

This should be approved. It is the last nougat update before the oreo.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] logan517:
They both work (Firmware approved for installation), but that does not make sense. I want to install Oreo and not Nougat, I have already installed the 407 (via OTA)

Does that mean I can just install the B521, even if it does not approved?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] dante96:
You need to wait until it's approved or root your phone (check previous topics)
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sergio27:
Solved! I use this device like a second phone... When I put my personal sim inside, he istantly find b407

What a joke :silly:
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] TorpedoGirl:

This is how I flashed Oreo on my device https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=77202102&postcount=315 . I flashed it in the Nougat version of TWRP. Can't guarantee it but you should be able to do it in the Oreo version of TWRP if you installed this TWRP found here https://xdaforums.com/honor-view-10/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-t3769917. This method installs Oreo with the stock recovery.

A download for the firmware is already included here https://www.xda-developers.com/honor-8-android-oreo-project-treble/

How hard would it be to convert this for FRD-L09 for example?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ThePS4Gamer:
You just need to rebrand your phone to FRD-AL00 or FRD-AL10, download the BETA app and join the Chinese beta test.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] boris dmello:
I now wish I knew to read Chinese :p

Have you tried it?

No, but in my opinion, this is the most obvious method.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] boris dmello:
I have the L02 are all these firmwares compatible with my phone? Is settings it says L02C675B350
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ThePS4Gamer:
If you don't rebrand your phone to a Chinese model, you can't try this Chinese beta ROM, 'cuz the verification will fail if you will try to install this with FF without rebranding because this ROM is region locked.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] boris dmello:
No no I am not talking about the Oreo firmware, I am talking about different firmwares for the L02 like L02C675 L02C432 L02432, are all these compatible directly with the L02? My device says L02C675 but it has updates only till B361 only till Feb..... But the L02C432 in firmware finder has updates till April.... So can I install the L02C432 on L02C675?? Or do I need to completely rebrand?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ThePS4Gamer:
The C tag shows your service provider status. For example: if your phone has a C432 tag in the firmware build number, it means that you have a factory unlocked Dual-SIM variant of the FRD-L02 Indian model. But, these ROMs that you're talking about, are service provider dependent ROMs. You need to unlock the bootloader, flash a modified stock recovery, which doesn't check the IMEI for compatibility. After that, you need to use RedLotus. This program will download and install the firmware that you want through HiSuite. Please search for RedLotus in the XDA search bar and follow the guide. And that's it!

[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ThePS4Gamer:
Yes, it's very important to backup, 'cuz the bootloader unlocking process will erase all of your personal data.

I always take a twrp backup to SD card every month anything other than that? Like any OEM info or something...? Is that backed up during twrp backup?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ThePS4Gamer:
These aren't important, but these will make the bootloader relocking process easier if you want to relock the bootloader after the installation. Go to Advanced Settings if you want to backup them.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] xsacter:
Idk if you guys know this but you could just go t lo the phones settings > developer options > unlock oem bootloader
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] timwelter:
That doesn't actually unlock the bootloader directly. Pretty sure it just allows you to actually unlock the bootloader through fastboot.

The battery life is NOT better on Oreo. I replaced my battery 2 weeks ago. On Nougat I got nearly two times better battery life than before (haven't reseted the phone for 2 years).

Now I updated it with HuRupdater, then did factory reset 2x (the first was caused by the bootloader locking, the second was started from the settings)

Not terrible, but definitely not the best.
