Well first you need to update to EMUI 8. You will probably have to download Indian or China version of EMUI 8 from Firmware Finder. I suggest China. Once downloaded just rebrand/update. Now in the update.zip you will find an update.app it is around 2-3 GB. Download Huawei Firmware Extractor and then extract Recovery_ramdis.img That's it. Now flash it normally.

Reading your post I conclude you are on EMUI 5 correct? What is your model number? It might help with the rebranding.

Can I upgrade from EMUI 5.x ???
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Deleted member 8892904:
No. You will brick your phone. First upgrade to EMUI 8

Also recovery is flashed through fastboot using either powershell or command prompt through your PC

Go-to the above link and download HWOTA and the three update files. Extract HWOTA to the C Drive of your PC. Rename them as suggested in thread. Now transfer the files to Download folder inside HWOTA 7 folder. Now boot your phone into Bootloader and connect to the PC. Now run update.bat it will flash TWRP recovery. Once it says waiting for device to boot into TWRP, disconnect the device and hold Power & Volume Up to boot into TWRP. Once in there reconnect to Computer and press enter twice.

Now select:

Update from-> using script-> change location-> BLN-AL20. It will flash OEM-Info and then ask for your bootloader unlock code and continue. Now wait patiently for it to finish. Once flashing is complete select to keep Bootloader unlocked.

Upon first boot you won't have network signal. Solution is in the linked thread but Don't ignore it and fix signal first then after that flash Pixys OS by following OP.

Now to extract Stock Recovery follow these:

Extract the main update.zip

Download Huawei Update Extractor from XDA. Search for it.

Launch Huawei Update Extractor and go to Settings and disable first option. Now press three dots to browse and navigate to extracted folder and select Update.app

Double click on Recovery_Ramdis.img and extract it to desktop. You will get animage file and another one. Delete the other one. Now flash image file as you would flash TWRP. If you need more help, Just ask.

One question, can I transition from Resurrection Remix Oreo? Or do I have to flash EMUI 8 again?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Sephiroth79:
Hello,

I am using an Honor 6X model number BLN-L21 running Emui 5.0.1.

Phone has unlocked bootloader and is rooted.

Since is unlocked OTA updates are no longer working so I am stuck on 5.0.1.

If I understood correctly I have first to upgrade to Emui 8.0 stock fw and then pass to this custom rom.

Could you please write me a small recap/tutorial I can follow to jump my phone in Emui 8?

Thanks,

Andrea.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Deleted member 8892904:
Yes you can but to be on the safe side I would advise to restore EMUI 8 first. Though you can go directly if you wish.

Hello there! My mobile phone model is China BLN-AL10. I tried to install this rom according to your tutorial. Everything else is normal, but the 4G network signal is very poor, -113dBm, I can't make a call. I have tried many similar AOSP roms, basically the same. Is there any way to solve it? thank you very much!

[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Yeah it's latest. Unfortunately no update yet. It'll be a while
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Sephiroth79:
Thanks.

Just to track all bugs I've noticed a strange behaviour whilst trying to pair my phone with Bt handset of my car.

I can pair with it turning off loc. Services but when I call someone directly from the phone or from the car I have no audio ouptut from the speaker of the car and I have to use the phone speakers to hear something.

On the car I can read "incoming call" so phone and care are connected but no audio streaming from/to phone.

Another small bug: if I try to take a picture using Whatsapp most of the times the picture freezes just few moments after being take and I have to push "back," button to get back to the chat.

I tied to install this ROM, but it said "this package is for hi6250' this device is lld."

mine is debranded to bln-l22 from l24, but my model number inside my india oero said "unknown"

anyway, how can i install this rom?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Use Askuccio TWRP. Search for it.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] hinghing1113:

Any way to dload the India Oreo then flash this ROM?

But the Oreo main file has more files

Did you use Askuccio TWRP? After the wipes install ROM file and Then Gapps. Or is something different for you?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] hinghing1113:
no. i used twrp provided by Elemental ROM to wipe....

now no OS... on my phone...
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Simple fix. Go to TWRP, reboot and then power off. Next hold volume down and insert USB. It'll boot to fastboot. Flash Askuccio TWRP. And instead of rebooting, press and hold power and volume up till you boot to TWRP. Then just flash ROM and Gapps. Follow instructions in OP

AOSP Extended.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Sephiroth79:
Hello,

I was checking for the latest version of PixysvOs for Hi265 on sourceforge but It seems that Hi265 folder is no longer present.

Any news?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Yes. Sadly the developer of Pixys has quit development. He deleted his SourceForge. This ROM will no longer be updated. I would tell you to try AOSP Extended but even that as well as all of Haky86 ROM's are on a hold
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Sephiroth79:
Thank you for the update.

It's a pitty because the Rom is really stable, exception made for the following bugs:

- phone does not ring when I have incoming calls;

- BT bug needs location services to be turned off, but some apps need loc. services on to pair with external devices via BT;

- Camera application from P20 sometimes freezes.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Try AOSP Extended. The Dev said he will update it this week. Maybe.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Sephiroth79:
OK, thanks.

I'll wait for the update.

Any tutorial on how to flash starting from Pixys Os?
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Begin by returning to stock EMUI 8 via Hurupdater. Then follow the same instructions to flash AOSP Extended via Askuccio TWRP. The original link no longer works but I did post a mirror in the thread. Also use Elemental ROM TWRP to flash Hurupdater as Askuccio TWRP doesn't work with that

Hope its even possible to so that at the same time:laugh::confused:;)

As far as I know location services should be off only during pairing process.

Once paired you should be able to switch loc. Services on again having by paired.

[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] :
TWRP doesn't mount Data cause of encryption in EMUI 8. However it can do that easily. If you want to install this ROM just go to Wipe and then format Data. It will now read Internal. However be careful. Only do this when installing a ROM as it corrupt data and require Factory Reset to fix. Luck and more instructions in OP

[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] :
That's odd. That issue should only be with external not internal. Did you format the SD card? Try VLC. It fixed that for several people. If that doesn't work format your SD card and then try again after transfer of the songs. Try using BOOM player. That's what I use and no issue with playback. If all else fails try a clean install.

[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Can you tell me your EMUI version and exactly what command you using. Just a reminder command is:

fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk RECOVERY-V2.img

Are you using this command. What's your Phone and FRP status on fastboot screen.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] jasonalejandro507:
Sorry I should have clarified. A week ago upgraded to EMUI 8 and then transitioned to RR Oreo. I tried flashing the recovery first when I had the EMUI 8 ROM but didn't work, and now it doesn't work when I try it with the RR Oreo. In the command used 'recovery' instead of 'recovery_ramdisk', that must be why it's not working, will try again.

EDIT: I tried the new command and it worked! Thanks for the help!
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Buddy you solved the problem yourself. You were using Wrong Command.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] jasonalejandro507:
Ok, I managed to get Elemental Rom TWRP running, but now when I try to flash the rom TWRP shows the following messages:

Failed to unmount /system: device or resource busy

Failed to unmount /vendor: device or resource busy

The device shows the google logo and it's stuck in a bootloop. Also when I try to factory reset from erecovery it goes to black and reboots into TWRP. I'm using Elemental Rom's TWRP 3.2.1-0.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] :
First of all, did you format Data in TWRP before installation. Second did you flash stock recovery for your device. To get this to work you need an external SD card as TWRP can't read internal storage. Now boot your device into TWRP. Go to Wipe and Format Data. After that press back twice and go to Advanced Wipe & mark:

Dalvik/Art Cache

Cache

Data

Internal

System

Swipe to confirm Wipe. Once completed go to install and select Pixys OS ZIP and flash it. It will take 3-4 mins. Now flash Nano Gapps for arm64 and 9.0 after it completes press Wipe Cache. Now go to main screen of TWRP and press reboot and select Power Off. Now plug one end of USB into computer and other end into phone while holding Volume Down button. Once it reboots to bootloader flash the stock recovery for your device. Instructions on getting that are written a few posts back but ask if you don't find them. After flashing stock recovery press power button and hold it. As soon as phone reboot and show bootloader unlock warning press and hold Volume Up to enter erecovery and factory reset the device. After that Format Cache and then reboot system now. First boot will take 8-10 mins so don't panic. Good Luck.

Hi

your guide is almost same as my guide

https://xdaforums.com/honor-6x/development/android-p-honor-6x-bln-l22-india-t3830387

currently im in rr b3 which is awesome stock camera,full strength signals,fp gestures,best battery life

but i wanna give it a try to this pie build but i just need some doubts to get clarified

headphones without mic is working?

signals strength is full?

dose it have stock emui camera?

battery life is really better compared with rr? also last old build i faced heating issue and every reboot is a mystery.

edit: i have decided to give it a try also omini pie then i will post detailed reviews
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Nollie8969:
Looking forward to it, Ramesh
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Sorry I had no idea there was already a guide. Now, your questions.

No stock camera.

Headphones work.

Signal strength is full. LTE works flawlessly.

Battery life is very good and better compared to RROS

And I haven't faced any Random Reboots So far.
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] Ramesh006:
installed

its incredibly faster we feel like we are using kitkat again. os is well optimized and pubg also runs like butter smooth.

once we try this we don't want to go back to oreo again.

problems i have faced

earphones without mic not detecting, im using lesser audio switch app which is helps to route audio through headphones.

when you change ui more than one time then you have to reboot your device to apply those changes to all apps.

fingerprint vibration while unlocking will stay even after disabled.

that's it no more problems i have faced,

fingerprint gestures are good

battery backup seems excellent but os itself need more time to get settled and give a true battery life.

going to try omni pie now,
[Honor 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Thanks for the review. What you mean by Earphones without mic. I am using on ear headphones with absolutely no problem. As for the fingerprint vibration I can't even get it to turn on. No vibration. You need a restart once you change UI styles. ROM is incredibly fast. Haven't tried PUBG yet. What setting are you running.

I tried OmniPie before this. It's buggy. Only upside is stock camera. Otherwise it's very buggy and incomplete. However I only flashed it and then after 10 mins flashed Pixys OS. So I can't give detailed review like you but that's my initial thoughts on OmniPie. Thanks for the review on the ROM.

installed omni pie

earphones bug solved. im using Panasonic earphones without mic.

fp vibration when unlocking can be turned off.

audio equalizer there

new animations all over system

pubg runs smoother

if we change animations to .5x then working speed is same for both pie roms

stock camera

fp gestures

problems

signal is very low but network strength is same

both roms have their own advantages

for my headphones problem i thought omni pie is best then i changed my mind installed pixys os without gapps to get very light weight os with more free ram and battery to run PUBG much better.

first time i got 24gb free after installing os everytime out of 32 i got only 22gb free.
