Works like a charme!

---------- Post added at 05:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:16 PM ----------

Update:

Cheared too soon;

Camera doesnt work. If I start the app it just remains in a black screen.

Recorder also don't work.

Edit2: Whole system is not working correctly.

Many lags, cannot call, no camera etc.

Followed your step 1 by 1 and this is what happened.

How can I go back now without TWRP Recovery and locked bootloader?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ScardracS:
Are you sure you have flashed the correct version for your device?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Deathless93:
Yeah, guess so.

Checked it 3 times. Used the L09 C432

But now my phone is "unknown".

I used the 3 files which I marked on the screenshot.

Renamed them, copied the folder to my phone and flashed it.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Micdu70:
Hello, if you have L09C432 I think you took wrong firmware. You should flash "159371" and not "159372". Don't know if you can flash it directly or if you need to rollback to Android Nougat...
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] hl3bkm:
Can you explain what you did to a noob? I'm also having this problem.

---------- Post added at 09:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:13 PM ----------

I downloaded 5 files which includes

update.zip

update_data_full_public.zip

update_full_FRD-L09_hw_eu.zip

update_full_FRD-L02_hw_eu.zip

update_full_FRD-L19_hw_eu.zip

Do I need to rename and transfer all of them or just L09 (the one i need ?) ?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ScardracS:
1) you only need update.zip, update_fyll_FRD-L09_hw_eu.zip and update_data_full_public.zip

2) You have to download the 2nd (watch the image)
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Deathless93:
Whats the difference between 159372 and 159371?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
First things first. Are you sure your bootloader is locked? The only way it will get locked is if you locked it or you flashed a rollback package. With an unlocked boot loader you can flash the EMUI8 version TWRP and reflash the Oreo rom. Another thing, have you tried doing a factory reset with the stock recovery.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Juhkimo:
[MENTION=8961188]Micdu70[/MENTION]

And what about 159456? :confused:
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Deathless93:
Nobody knows lol
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ScardracS:
One is for FRD-L09 or L02 and the other for FRD-L09
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Deathless93:
I'll try the other one now.

Let you guys know if it works in a few mins

Bootloader isnt locked, was wrong, sry for that!
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sharath007:
Happened same for me. After flashing for the first time, there were many errors. Bootloader was still unlocked though.So I installed Honor view 10 twrp, formatted everything and tried the same method (flashed huru updater). After this, phone went to boot loop. I did whole wipe from stock recovery, then it booted fine with all apps.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] pix106:
In FF (using FRD-L09C432 filter), all 3 firmwares have 3 models references... So it's hard to tell which one is for which model.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Deathless93:
Yeah, its bull****. Wont flash it again.

By the looks of it no one can tell which one is right one.

Anyone can help me going back to stock?

I flashed the EMUI8 TWRP and tried to flash Oreo v. 159371 as mentioned in the first post with HuRU but getting just errors.

Cant flash anything.

Tried also the stock recovery and factory reset. Phone won't boot.

Any solutions?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] d.westhues:

[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ScardracS:
Now It's approved!
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MicroChip:
Ok I've got magisk installed, got root, hidden so Android pay works and directv now plays. What's weird is if I install a v4a magisk module it will install the driver, but when I reboot it's not installed again. Downloaded BusyBox, install that, it's there, but after reboot it's gone. How can I get the things to persist after reboot so I can use v4a? I've always hated the sound quality of the phone but now that I've got it unlocked and rooted I may as well fix the audio.

Thanks!

[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
Have you tried searching or posting this question in the Magisk forum? They may be better suited to help you solve your problem.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] agraceful:
Viper doesn't work. Thank Huawei. Kernel enforces SELinux and it cannot be changed.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MicroChip:
What about the Openkirin treble roms? It's unclear if treble roms change the kernel.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
If I'm not mistaken some of the treble roms have an option to change Selinux to permissive. I don't know if V4A will work though.

Edit: I asked in the OpenKirin Telegram group and the answer is no.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Domi-kun:
Hey zinko_pt

I have the same problem/CRC error. I can't extract the boot.img.

Could you solve the problem in the meantime?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Frau Son:
LOL now I'm stuck with a weird combination of Android 7.0 and EMUI 8 features, even though it says EMUI 5.0.4... but I'm not mad, it's working flawlessly up to now!

Thanks for the guide!
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ScardracS:
Are you sure you haven't flashed b409?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Frau Son:
Damn, that could be it?

Maybe I switched up the filelists on my Drive... didn't think you could downgrade like that though, since I was on the Russian B501. My fault then.

Nice to know for future accidents, seems to be way easier than downgrading with the packages etc.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
This maybe a silly question but are you extracting update.app with Huawei Update Extractor first?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Domi-kun:
Yes, if I use the UPDATE.APP (FRD-L09 8.0.0.521 (C432), downloaded with FirmwareFinder) with the Huawei Update Extractor, the message "RECOVERY_RAMDIS.img appears: Invalid header crc - Expected: 10691 Got: 48598" appears.

I use Huawei Update Extractor 0.9.9.5 and the profile "Unknown (worstenbrood)".

If I choose the UPDATE.APP from the C432B131 firmware, I can select the boot.img.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
First thing you want the RAMDISK.img for Magisk and not RECOVERY_RAMDISK.img. Anyway I extracted both of them for you. They came from the FRF-L09 on v 156472. (Although it shouldn't matter because I think they all use the same UPDATE.APP)

Ramdisk: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1GtAi8jJO4BIwbtO22izJh3xgz3D9LH4F

Recovery: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1I_48xVfcScuqYbj9CM79j-wPde2JI0rc

Here is another tool you can use to extract UPDATE.APP.

https://xdaforums.com/mediapad-x2/development/tool-huawei-update-extractor-linux-perl-t3318880
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] zinko_pt:
I found I wasn't de-selecting some checking in options. And that is actually recommended. So Huawei Update Extractor was always checking for the integrity of the file and returning error.

Turning off the checking did the trick. Pretty obvious... :p
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Domi-kun:
Thank you so much! I'll try it out tonight.

Thank you too. Now it works for me without errors as well!

Hi there! I've a problem with this update.. The audio doens't work anymore (even with headphone) and when i get a call the phone crashed.

I've started from a nougat with unlocked bootloader and root.

II didn't root the device again..

Under phone information the model name now is UNKNOWN :S

Any suggestion?

EDIT: I've tryed to make a factory reset as someone has suggested but the situation didn't change at all...

I've read this topic twice and didn't find the answer (maybe because I'm not native) but how can I get back to nougat? It's my daily driver and I'm not able to call :eek:eek:

Thanks
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] srgrusso:
You can try flashing the EMUI8 version of TWRP and reflashing the Oreo update.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MC FLMJ1G:
This has been the most tedious work I have done with a phone... So far it seems that doing the op and this is what works. So far so good. Just curious if I do a factory reset again if it will be fine again...

Random question - If we lock the bootlaoder again, can we get rid of that annoying message at the beginning?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] agraceful:
Don't do that. It will bork the system.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MC FLMJ1G:
Really? Any way to get rid of that message in the beginning? I wanted to sell the phone but people may freak if they see that... lol
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ScardracS:
No you can't unless you flash the downgrade to lock phone back and then upgrade.

I think flash it via eRecovery works too and lock device
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MC FLMJ1G:
I may try erecovery as it is easier, "download latest version and recovery".

I think that downgrades it automatically. I know I lost root and it did lock it before... Not sure if I still got that message...

Appreciate the help.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] agraceful:
If you want to sell it, you should be able to remove everything related root, xposed, magisk, etc and flash the stock recovery if needed Then relock it. I assumed you wanted to just relock it just to do so. You have no idea how many people have done that and ended up bricking their device. I BELIEVE this will erase the message since it's related to bootloader unlock. I assume you're on stock os right?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ScardracS:
That will remove the message.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Johnvansavage:
Is there anyway to get face unlock on stock Oreo? Or is that available only for the custom ROMs that are on 8.1? I have tried the magisk module but it says it's only for 8.1 and I have stock recovery
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MC FLMJ1G:
Seems that eRecovery does not work. For some reason it cannot find the server. Worked before but not now. I will just add a disclaimer when I sell.

I will keep trying though. I did try it out and it is nice running Oreo. The only issue is Netflix does not work. Needs to be sideloaded. I am sure other apps may need that done as well.

Appreciate the help.

Do you see this device can't be trusted screen? If you boot too your bootloader does it say your device is locked? If it isn't then you can flash the Emui 8 version of twrp and reflash the Oreo update again. Sometimes it takes a couple of flashes for it to work.

Hello,

I have had same problem as you.

Here is what I did.

1. Download firmware finder, or install it by downloading apk or by adb install commamd.

2. Browse one-by-one firmware in backword direction untill you find very first noughat version, which was released after mashmellow. You can find these info in changelogs. It will be mentioned 'noughat update available for,...'

3. In firmware finder, in that tab, click on dns->auto->start/run dns.

4. Then get that firmware rgstd and get that firmware update through system update.

5. After downloading starts, stop dns server.

6. Once downloaded it will ask for install, let it..

7. Then it might show 'serious problem occured user needs to be reset' after successfull installation. Click on proceed. Thats it you are back on noughat. Then go to system update, install latest, Then unlock oem from developer options and unlock bootloader if you want and enjoy

NOTE: Needless to mention, you will loose all data, including data on internal sd, external sd data will be unaffected.

[HTC Vox] Rubberducky:
I'm trying to develop an Anti Theft application for my Vox.

Basically what it does is check if another SIM card has been inserted.

When it detects a new SIM a fake screen with "Starting phone..." comes up.

If you do not enter the super secret code within 10seconds it activates.

This means that it forwards every incoming SMS text message to a predefined phone number, if it receives a special SMS text message it will reply with the other persons contacts.

Now what i want to do is make it that even if you hard-reset the phone the application will still be there.

I saw something similar with a custom ROM with a Pocket PC from HTC.

How do i do this with Vox?

You can get the kitchen (search) and cook the application into the ROM. But if you fully app unlock the phone, you can still delete files that are in ROM!

Uhm... Yeah...

I got some Time and had to rework my Z4 so I made a little Script (and a bit more afterwards) for my Z4.

What does it Clean? A ****ton.

Check the .bat yourself - Post would be too long to post.

Note for Batch: Anything beginning with a "::" or "REM" is a Comment in the Batch File, like the "'#" in a .sh file!

Why ADB? I simply didn't managed to delete the files from /etc with a Shell Script.

About the "more"...

I updates some of the Sony Apps and added some Google Apps to /data/app

What Exactly? This:

./ressources/data/app

com.google.android.apps.messaging

com.google.android.apps.walletnfcrel

ClockWidgets-release

home-sonyEricsson-release

SemcClock-release

SemcMusic

...XZ2 Stock Sounds, Build.prop Tweaks, more Media Volume and Phone Call Volume Steps and a Watch Dogs bootlogo.

The Lockscreen Clock is the XZ one. I did not Touch Sony Album because it force closes when not updates from Play Store.

If you just want to clean only, take the batch and Comment out the Keyboard and Sony Launcher or add your own.

Else: Use the Zip (NOT FLASHABLE!)

SafetyNet only works with Magisk. Tested with 16.7.

If you want to make a Flashable zip from this... Go ahead, If you want I'll add it to OP.

Any Bugs or Suggestions to Keep Specific apps... Tell me, I'll take a look at.

Downloads (Zip Includes Batch File):

PS: Remove Chrome and Sony Calendar from /data/app, Chrome must be Installed from Play Store or from /system/app, Calendar App is too new, use 20.3.B.0.3, which is last "Target 7.1" Version.

Hello all,

So I am having issues with trying to switch from Copperhead OS which is a now dead project that no longer provides updates to another ROM like Lineage so that this phone doesn't sit unused. I'm guessing because of the nature of the Copperhead environment that it doesn't make this process very easy.

I've enabled USB debugging to try and see my device in the cmd window when running adb devices but the list doesn't show anything. I am attempting to install a stock image so I can then move on to install another ROM but I have hit this roadblock. I don't care if I lose any of the info on the phone. Any help would be appreciated.
