[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] sssaini007:
I don't quite get you, are you really asking me how much it would cost? Or just trying to mock me or something (cause seriously this forum is filled with rude people.

I you really asking how much it would cost, that my friend i don't know. You may wanna ask the customer service.

If you're mocking me, i only gave advice. Take or leave it's upto one's own.

If would definitely opt for genuine parts if available at somewhat reasonable price.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Accessories] xd4d3v:
not trying to mock you, but I disagree with you.

the phone is old and not worth much., an original xiaomi part (if they can be sourced at all) will possible cost more than the phone itself!
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] SuperSwordSmasher:
Guys, please help me. I rebranded my FRD-L14C567 To FRD-L09C432. Now I want to go back FRD-L14C567. Is there a way to get it back? Where can I find the OEM info of it? :(
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] SuperSwordSmasher:
Guys please help!!! I just want to go back to FRD-L14C567. :(
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] valp88:
The way I managed to go from C636 to C432 was through Huawei Multi-Tool, in that change vendor option. After that, I used dload to flash C432.

This site lists all the firmwares for your model, maybe it helps: http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=frd-L14C567&firmware_page=0
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] SuperSwordSmasher:
But FRD-L14C567 Is a big defference between FRD-L09C432. I dont think that would help me rebrand back to FRD-L14C567. :(
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] valp88:
I just checked Multi-Tool and it seems they're not covering vendor/country change for L14. Too bad.

That's as far has my experience go, so good luck in your research!
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] SuperSwordSmasher:
Aw man, hopefully they will add it soon so i can come back to L14

And where is the tab in multitool to change vendor/country? I was not able to find that tab in multitool just incase

And when i went to multitool 7, the language was different and the vendor change was filled with question marks.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] valp88:
It happened to me too. I had to download it from their site. It's the application that has that command line look, not the one with the fancy gui.

Oh thanks, i know what your talking about.

How To Install OREO Update Before It Is Released

Discaimer: I am not responsible for any mistakes, mishaps or BRICKED devices.​

​

Prerequisites:

Updated to Nougat

Unlocked bootloader

TWRP installed

Basic understanding on how to use TWRP

If you don't know how to unlock your bootloader and install TWRP see post #2

I am using my device the [FRD-L04] as an example in this guide.

Step 1 Get Firmware

Create a folder on you computer and name it "oreo-update".

Go to the Firmware Finder website and find the Oreo update for your device.

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.

Copy and paste each download link for your device into your browser's address bar and download them to your "oreo-update" folder.

You may see more than three files. The last one will have your model number in it.

Now go to your "oreo-update" folder.

Rename "update_data_full_public.zip" to "update_data_public.zip"

Rename "update_full_FRD-L04_hw_usa.zip" to "update_all_hw.zip"

Step 2 Get HuRUpdater

HuRUpdater is a great program that flashes unapproved and approved updates in TWRP.

Go to the HuRUpdater post and download the latest version to your "oreo-update" folder. Be sure to hit the thanks button while your there.

Step 3 Install Oreo

Copy "oreo-update" folder to your SD Card.

Boot to TWRP

I recommend doing a full backup and a wipe before flashing.

Choose install from the TWRP menu and select your SD Card

Navigate to your "oreo-update" folder and flash "HuRUpdater" it will prompt you to hit the volume down button to start the process.

HuRUpdater will flash the update for you. I ended up with three errors which didn't seem to matter.

Reboot and enjoy

Optional Flash TWRP

It may be possible this process relocked your bootloader. So you may need to unlock your bootloader again.

Download the latest version of TWRP from this post. This TWRP wasn't designed for our device but is the closest to a fully working TWRP I could find. DO NOT post any problems or bugs in that post!

TWRP 3.2.1-0

The fastboot commands have changed. The new command is "fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk RECOVERY.img"

If you like this guide please consider hitting the thanks button.

As of July 25th 2018 the unlock code application service has ended. You now have to use DC Unlocker to get your unlock code.

Here is how you install Magsk now
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] freemannhp:
Thanks for the sharing. Could you explain a little more about which parts of the twrp for oreo are not working?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
The only things I have found is it can't decrypt the Data partition and it tries to mount a partition that isn't on the Honor 8. It will wipe the Data partition though. I'm sure it is only a matter of time until someone builds one for our device.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] edomali:
And how lo unlock bootloader? Webpage is unavaliable...
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
Here is a link with some alternative methods. Just follow the unlock bootloader section. Use the other thread for installing TWRP.

Edit: Here is a working link to Huawei unlock code request page.

Thanks for sharing,but i think link is wrong,i dont see where can i type imei number
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] timwelter:
Wanted to wait for ota because I thought I couldn't unlock my bootloader anyway. Recently found out I still had an unlock code on my pc somewhere. If I update with this method, will I still get future OTAs?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
I seem to be having trouble making it past the registration. I get "system is busy". If I remember correctly you have to register first. Then you can request your unlock code. You might want to try the alternative methods listed.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
I can't say for sure, but I would think so as long as you have the stock recovery installed. I know that when I flashed back to Nougat this way I was able to get OTA's.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
Check this out. It looks like Huawei is giving us the big middle finger.

Edit: I guess this isn't anything new but I figure I would share it anyway.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] timwelter:
So if I flash this with hurupdater it'll automatically install the stock recovery again (remove twrp)?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
Yes. It will flash it back to stock. Although it didn't lock the bootloader for me.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] timwelter:
Thanks gonna try this tonight.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] pix106:
This article is actually quite old, isn't it ?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
It is. If you read the comments below someone posted this from Huawei.

[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] pix106:
Which seems quite old too :)
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
I know it is old news, but I don't think the age of the article matters as much as the fact is that Huawei will no longer be giving out unlock codes. Just about every article you read is from that time period because that is when Huawei made the announcement. I admit I might have missed the bus on this one.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] pix106:
Today someone posted a new link for a new form, that's funny you post the plder news today too :)

I don't know if the new form is that new or if it works though
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] skyrush7:
I don't know either where I should look for the unlock code. I get to this page after I log into my Huawei ID.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] timwelter:

DC Unlocker will get you your unlock code. It's a good program although it will cost a little money. I used their other program DC Pheonix to unbrick my phone before when nothing else would work and it was well worth the money.

Thank you for this Clear instruction. I used/followed your instruction with Multitool and I have since today Oreo :good:
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] timwelter:
Anyone else having issues with the fingerprint scanner? On nougat it worked flawlessly. On Oreo it barely works.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
It worked fine for me in EMUI 8 and It's working fine for me in LineageOS 15.1.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] timwelter:
Strange. I'll update to LOS when I get home from work to see if it works better.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] skyrush7:
Which partitions should I wipe before flashing the oreo files?

I'm familiar with TWRP, I've modded some devices already, but since Honor 8 is my daily driver, want to make sure I do things right.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] timwelter:
I just wiped the partitions that were already selected in twrp.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] skyrush7:
Thank you for this guide!

I succesfully updated to B521, using DC Unlocker to unlock the bootloader and HuRupdater. After the installation my BL stayed unlocked, so I relocked it with fastboot.

Hope there won't be any problems with battery.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] timwelter:
How are you experiencing the fingerprint scanner? Mine is extremely slow and inaccurate since I updated.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] skyrush7:
Slower than on 7.0, but not terrible. It's nearly two times slower than before, but I won't notice it in everyday usage.

To be honest, emui 5 felt faster and more fluid.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] timwelter:
I'm gonna flash LOS anyway. From what I've heard it's a lot more fluid.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BnK1986:
How do you install stock recovery for EMUI 8?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] SuperSwordSmasher:
My story in install oreo is that i did a factory reset in twrp. Then i flash hurupdater with oreo files. Then i booted, there we no stock huawei app but only updater and other stuff, there werr no play store too. But then i accedentaly bricked my phone, then, i went into twrp and make a factory reset in twrp, then i flashed hurupdater again and booted, and i went to er recovery and i factory reset there, but then after i did it, all the huawei apps appeared and also playstore. I got happy about that.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] mr.b4rt:
finally...:D
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ScardracS:
I've installed it but device doesn't lock back
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] boran1:
Since 2 days using my phone Oreo it works great. Phone has no problems.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Elyth_:
The tutorial worked well but my phone now doesn't have Google Play Services. I tried flashing open gapps but it's still not working any idea?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] SuperSwordSmasher:
I found a solution, that happened to me in oreo, what you do is boot into a twrp oreo

Then do a factory reset in twrp

Flash hurupdater along with the oreo files

After that, boot into er recovery and factory reset

Once you boot you will now have set up process and huawei apps

Hopefully this works, because this is what did to fix it
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
It sounds like you missed a step or something. Make sure you have all three files you need and that they are named right. It sounds like your missing the one that contains the google apps. Also you can try reflashing in Oreo TWRP. If that doesn't work you need to flash a Nougat Rom using HurUpdater and than Flashing Nougat TWRP. Then Flash Oreo with HurUpdater. I don't know if Oreo TWRP not being able to Mount Data partition Will cause a problem when your trying to flash Oreo.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] SuperSwordSmasher:
Actuallyz i already fixed it, there were no missing files and they were named the correct way, i had to flash hurupdater 2 times ti get it to work with the google apps and other huawei apps. Idk why it does that

When i flashed hurupdater while i was in oreo twrp then factory reseted in er recovery, the huawei apps and google apps appeared
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] timwelter:
It was a little slow on emui 8. I'm on LOS now and it's extremely smooth. Don't really know about the battery though. I have 50 mins screen time and it's at 78%.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Elyth_:
Thanks! It worked perfectly :)
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] SuperSwordSmasher:
Idk why custom roms drain more battery than stock rom. I notice that too. When i tryed Linage OS 7.1.2, RROS 7.1.2 the battery was draining fast too.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] krchi:
Did you flash the .img using twrp or stock recovery?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] boran1:
Used TWRP of MultiTool (MT). MT works good.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Johnvansavage:
Does aptX work on the latest Oreo?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] SuperSwordSmasher:
Did you flash the treble rom using twrp or adb?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
I'm running Omnirom beta 2 now. It's pretty solid and the camera works. They're using the stock Huawei camera app. I flashed mine via fastboot. You just flash the system image.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] SirDarknight:
Hey, is twrp working for you in Oreo? Since I updated to Oreo, no twrp is working for me at all. I tried 3-4 different/modified versions, some have data encryption issues and the others can't mount/unmount system,data partition. My model is AL10
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mikeyy233:
link dosent work..
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] krchi:
I assume you probably flashed it via fastboot with stock recovery on your device right?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] SuperSwordSmasher:
I tried linage os B5 with twrp it kinda work, it was stuck at boot logo, so I. Went into fastboot and flash stock recovery and then factory reseted in er recovery the ROM booted!!!
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ScardracS:
YouTube have ti flash it via fastboot, installing stock rom in the device
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Juhkimo:
So you still have to use your computer and stock recovery. So why not use fastboot in the first place :confused:
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
Right.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
TWRP isn't recomended or supported for OpenKiren Roms. Mostly due to the fact TWRP is broken.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
TWRP is broken in Oreo due to the fact it can no longer decrypt data. As far as I understand something in Oreo change with the encryption and TWRP has to catch up.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] hackslash:
No. Hi3650 still uses the same FDE (Full Disk Encryption) encryption as in Nougat. So only a compatible TWRP is needed which is probably no brainer but since TWRP has no use now for anyone, it's not being developed. I personally still use View 10 recovery if I need for flashing stock firmware or restoring the device.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] lallolu:
Good instructions. It worked for me on the first try.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
Thanks for the clarification. If I think about it I'm not sure what I would use TWRP for anymore. I use fastboot to flash Treble Roms. Can't install Magisk with it anymore. Maybe use it to remove system apps or backup my data partition.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] krchi:
Where could one find the stock recovery img?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] SuperSwordSmasher:
Huh? Wut are you talking about I flashed magisk using TWRP Oreo. For some reason my magisk was kept after installing treble rom too.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sharath007:
I used this method for flashing Oreo on my Indian variant. Used twrp 3.1.1.0 and HuRu updater 0.4.

Everything went well and as mentioned in post exactly got 3 errors. Booted in less than 1min as I flashed on nougat without wiping.

Resetted and on first boot the boot logo, animation was different like stock android without honor logo. Camera not worked, no sound, Bluetooth not worked, can't switch off nfc.

Then I flashed view 10 twrp on Oreo and redid everything. Now everything working just fine. Smooth. Thanks for the method..

guys!

How's battery life?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] SuperSwordSmasher:
For Me on emui 8 it was about the same with emui 5, but when I flashed Linage OS B5 treble rom and the battery and performance was really good. There are some bugs needed to be fixed in LOS B5.

Usually I thought that the battery in custom roms were bad, but then it was much better. Idk what they did to make custom roms not drain battery.

The Huawei camera works on this treble rom too.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sharath007:
I felt charging speed and battery was better in nougat. But oreo seems snappy
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sideness:
Is the LOS usable as a daily driver? I remember trying a 14.1 build in 2017 and camera didn't work, there were some random reboots during the day, etc...
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] timwelter:
I've been using it for about 4 days without a hitch. Camera works fine. It even includes emui's camera app.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sideness:
Thanks. I'll think about it when Oreo will be available ;)
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sharath007:
Anyone tried Android P GSI
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] timwelter:
GSI?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
I don't think it will work on our device. I think you need an Android 8.1 vendor partition and we have 8.0.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MicroChip:
So this totally worked for me, and I'm running Oreo on my Honor 8. I tried installing the latest TWRP from the View 10 thread, I can boot in to it, but at first screen, my pin doesn't decrypt, and so I cannot see files in the filesystem, so I cannot install Magisk. Any suggestions? I saw some people did successfully install Magisk, wondering how.

Thanks!

I had a developer on the Telegram tell me you needed 8.1 per google. But if someone has it working on a with 8.0 without bugs that would be great news for us.

Edit: I asked again in Telegram and someone proved that they are running Pie on a 8.0 vendor. Although he said That it's not ready yet. That it still has major bugs. But looks like there is hope though.
