Hello,
I'm trying to root my honor 5c/7 lite that is running android 7.0 and EMUI 5.0 on it and it runs very smooth , but when I flash TWRP 3.1.0.0, twrp never loads up, it's just stuck in "You device is booting now" when trying to enter recovery.
The method I use is the manual method via bootloader:
HTML:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot reboot
And yes my bootloader is obviously unlocked!
I did only have 20% battery left however, if that affects it at all?
Before I flashed Android 7.0 and EMUI 5.0 onto the device, I had no problem rooting it the same way with the same recovery.
UPDATE:
I'm now on android 6.0 / EMUI 4.1.2
I have flash TWRP 3.1.0.0 and rooted with superSu v2.79 SR3

Refer to the honor site for downgrade instruction. U need to flash a seperate update.app before flashing the full update.app. U will get these all in the downgrade instructions.

In the rollback instructions u will find a seperate update.app and a full update.app. U need to first flash the seperate update.app by putting it in dload folder. After flashing that reboot then replace that dload folder with the full update in dload. Flash that. Then u will be on EMUI 4.
Ok, I have successfully downgraded my phone now. Is it now possible to root my phone then flash android 7 onto it?

You can root it after flashing Emui 5, but u can't flash twrp as of now. Twrp for Emui 5 is not available right now.
I just flashed lineage OS 13 instead
So there is no way to root emui 5/android 7 without rolling back to 6?

same issue here. if twrp doesn't support emui 5 as of now, aren't there any other recoveries for it like cwm or anything else? tried kingroot etc with no luck.. and nougat update came with SO MUCH bloatware that needs to be uninstalled asap!

bloatware doesnt eat battey, unless you have 1 gb sdcard it should be fine. also you can delete all data and disable them.

In Huawei P9 lite thread there is a Twrp recovery for nougat, EMUI 5. Developer is oldDroid. He wants to support honor 5c with his twrp. Bt he needs testers. Just contact him if u want.

you need to flash the rollback package first and then you need to flash the MM firmware for your model. Unless you flash the rollback package, you cant go back to MM.
Other option is to use the oeminfo file and the full Nougat Firmware to update to correct model instead of NRD90M test keys.

For the EMUI 8 to 9 tool you will need root. You can do it from TWRP if you wanted to.
But you will need an unlocked bootloader at least, else you won't be able to install it.
No service = its not a service firmware, as most are on androidhost.ru.
Everything works fine. I just flashed it.

It says "no service" because it's not a DLOAD firmware.

It won't with the EMUI8 tool as it is now.
I will edit the EMUI9 tool and upload it, it will only require unlocked bootloader.
Edit: You can just use the EMUI9 tool as is, it's using Oreo TWRP and Oreo NoCheck.
As I am sure that EMUI 9 comes with new bootloader, is it possible to flash it without flashing xloader? As the Custom treble rom I want to use do not work on 9.0 vendor, so I could downgrade back.
Or uses the EMUI9 the 02xloader? If 02 then I can upgrade it to try it out!
Hopefully the update doesnt come x years laters for the ones on the official beta lol, anyway have fun guys

Unlock phone, flash twrp by pretoriano80, flash Magisk zip in twrp.
Alternatively: unlock phone, patch ramdisk in Magisk Manager, flash patched ramdisk in fastboot.
Would this method work for upgrading BLA-L29c636 b145 to BLA-L29C636E2R1P13B159 (9.0.0.159)
Is there any chance of getting a working TWRP/root on this version?
Great news. I've just installed it without problems. Is there any safe way to unroot and relock bootloader?

Apparently the root developers, amongst others John Wu (Magisk), are working to get a simple way to root EMUI 9.0.
The root has already been confirmed to be working on the Huawei Mate 10 Pro and more devices should join the party sooner or later.

Hey I have p20 pro EU version 6/128
Today I got a new update about Google security.
I want every update run on my phone
But I rooted my device.
I wanted first to ask guys , I tried to update but was unsuccessful. I do not have twrp because of the method I used to root p20 pro didn't allow me having magisk and twrp recovery.
So now if I want to update have to do it manually ?
2 questions
1) which program do I use ?
2) where I can find the firmware Official WITHOUT BEEING CHANGED ANYTHING inside from someone third.
Thanks John
You need to flash the stock bootloader. If you are running Pie and Magisk, you have a modified bootloader. I don't know where to download the stock one. Could probably rip it from a stock Pie firmware.
Me to have twrp on my p20 pro and i cannot update my phone.. Have new update but when I try system update after download, its entering to recovery mode for install the firmware but it cannot coz working twrp and unsuccessful installation.
Me to look for stock recovery for clt-l29 pie

Download the current version you are using. Extract recovery_ramdisk.img and flash. Reboot and take OTA update. You will lose root, as I said you have a modified recovery and need stock to take OTA.
Edit - Once your done, patch the bootloader from Magisk and flash to get root again.

Successfully unlocked PRA-LX2 bootloader with DC Unlocker
Flashed EliteTWRP (because every other TWRP is down)
Rooted with Magisk
But
There are no ROMs that says it will work with EMUI 5 PRA-LX2. Tried LineageOS that said will work with EMUI 8.x firmware and obviously didn't work.
Can't update to EMUI 8 through Team MT because it only supports locked devices?
Manual EMUI updates get stuck at 5%
Phone doesn't even show a updater app
Does this mean i'm stuck with unlocked emui 5?
Can someone please link me to a guide that will help me update to emui 8 and oreo manually so i can enjoy these awesome ROMs?

All roms available for this device are GSI's ( Treble roms).

I followed this guide
But the TWRP mentioned in the video didn't worked for me and No official TWRP was available for this device at that time.
After Flashing System, I did Factory reset via Stock recovery.
About Performance ... Don't expect Mid-Ranger King like performance ? UI animation seems a little slow than AOSP Stock Roms. You should also Flash NSF- Injector or L-Speed or FDE.AI like Magisk Modules Why? Because these optimize the Rom and I was able to play Call of Duty Mobile on Medium Settings?? on EMUI 8 it was struggling even on Low settings.
And I have Stock Kernel
Rom is stable ... Bluetooth Audio work. Adaptable Storage doesn't work and I heard it doesn't work on Android 9. Didn't checked the GPS.
Update ...
Things I forgot to mention ...
1) Signal bar is bugged it always shows 1 bar?
2) Camera is now choppy ... P20 pro camera Magisk version doesn't work, Gcam doesn't work because of Android 9?but you can have Google Camera Go, result is better than AOSP camera
3) Mobile Hotspot doesn't turn off, you have to Enable WiFi to turn it off???

Important Note :
*DC unlocker doesn't Unlock the Bootloader* .... * it only gives you the Bootloader Unlock Code* .... * So you have select "get bootloader unlock code" NOT UNLOCK BOOTLOADER ( currently I don't remember the correct option on DC unlocker Client)
Firstly I downgraded to Android 7 via Hisuit, then Unlocked the Bootloader. At that time DC Unlocker worked only with EMUI 5 ( Android 7), I don't know about the current status of DC unlocker. If you try to get bootloader unlock code with Android 8 it won't recognize your device.
Updated to Android 8 via OTA to enable Project Treble
Brother Momin, which version of TWRP did you use? My phone has EMUI 8 and I have unlocked the bootloader.
I had tried following the video you mentioned above. I used the TWRP they mentioned. Then downloaded Havoc 64bit ROM and flashed it. The everything went downhill from there. I couldn't factory reset or boot up. Sadly, I forgot to make a backup and then had to get my phone flashed with the stock ROM from a professional. What was the exact steps you followed? Thanks.

Firstly I downgraded to Android 7 via Hisuit, then Unlocked the Bootloader. At that time DC Unlocker worked only with EMUI 5 ( Android 7), I don't know about the current status of DC unlocker. If you try to get bootloader unlock code with Android 8 it won't recognize your device.
Updated to Android 8 via OTA to enable Project Treble

Brother Momin, which version of TWRP did you use? My phone has EMUI 8 and I have unlocked the bootloader.
I had tried following the video you mentioned above. I used the TWRP they mentioned. Then downloaded Havoc 64bit ROM and flashed it. The everything went downhill from there. I couldn't factory reset or boot up. Sadly, I forgot to make a backup and then had to get my phone flashed with the stock ROM from a professional. What was the exact steps you followed? Thanks.

I had major problems too when I wanted to boot HAVOC OS 2.9
I used this guide to unbrick mine
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8...uide-brick-huawei-p8-lite-2017-maybe-t3816694
In this guide there is TWRP named RecoveryV2 ... This was the only working TWRP for my device,
https://drive.google.com/file/d/190zqju8ZmwZCzI4WXtujgKLFXvvuWTk8/view
*important Note* = I could use this TWRP to flash things like Magisk,OpenGapps or to revert to EMUI etc. This TWRP couldn't Factory Reset my device and corrupted my internal Storage.
You have to wipe system via fastboot, Flash Havoc OS via Fastboot , Factory Reset via Stock Recovery ? then Flash TWRP to flash Gapps, Factory Reset via Stock recovery ? Flash TWRP for Magisk?
In Magisk you should Flash Ainur Auido to increase Sound Quality and NFS Injector to increase the performance of Device
Its been a year since I Flashed Havoc on my device and I kinda Flash and Forget ?
Thanks for the reply. Your device is Pra-Lx2 or Lx1? Is it your daily driver? So the process is: bootloader unlock>wipe system via fastboot>flash havoc>factory reset via erecovery>flash twrp,gapps, magisk etc.
Will I be able to backup my stock rom from twrp before I flash Havoc, as a fall-back if anything goes wrong?

My device is Honor 8 lite (PRA-LA1)
TWRP couldn't do Nandroid backup. I haven't tried Official TWRP because I didn't need it.
Yes Havoc is daily driver.
If anything goes wrong,follow unbrick guide- unbrick via HuruUpdater method. Always have full Stock Rom on your PC ( as it is around 2.5gb) you can get it from Firmware Finder.
After Gapps I did Factory Reset via Stock recovery just in case?
