You only have to unroot and re-flash your stock recovery to update.
Your bootloader will stay unlocked.

Use this one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p9lite/development/twrp-t3588356
It works fine on the Honor 5C, tested it by myself.

Not every recovery can run on any firmware. If you are on the newest firmware (N) try the newest TWRP 3.1.0-0.

For stock rom try the newest superuser or if it doesn't work the pre-rooted boot image from this forum. (flashed via fastboot)
For me I had no success with the superuser install for some reason but the boot image worked.

U need to enable OEM unlock before flashing Twrp. And btw official Twrp for honor 5c is not supported for nougat till now. U can get unofficial Twrp for nougat from p9 lite forum. It's reported to be working on our device too, since it's got same hardware.

I'll let yo know if i will get best results....
When i try to flash SuperSu on recovery, the recovery shows me only "booting image" or something like that and then recovery crashes, and android starting to boot, anybody could help me plz obtain root? ;(

Well, can't you tape adb reboot recovery from PC shell once android is booted? This is the easiest way,
Else, shut down the mobile, press volume up button, next press power and keep volume buttton pressed, you should boot properly in recovery and not e-recovery.
@Notonlyeyes are TWRP / Root also working in P8 Lite 2017 ? Thank you.

Nice. On the link you gave for TWRP, there is a disclaimer "can't flash 8.1 ROMS".
My goal is to flash GSI roms, like LOS15.1. Will it be possible or am i doomed ?
Thank you for your help

5.It will take 5 min to download zip file and patch RAMDISK.img.
6.Patched RAMDISK.img usually stored in "sdcard/Download/patched-boot.img" or magisk manager will also guide you where the patched boot image stored.
7.Transfer the patched-boot.img to your pc.

Not to rain on your parade but I have a Honor 6X. And I managed to install Magisk normally. Just flash TWRP, latest Magisk and reboot. Any TWRP available for hi6250 with decryption support?

Huawei has changed the partition scheme along with encryption method totally thats why it is taking so much time.
Good News is devs are working on it and they are hoping that we could decrypt our huawei phone very soon.

Are you doing everything right? If you flash TWRP recovery it should boot even though it may not work after TWRP logo.
There are many Unofficial TWRP recoveries for this device. You should try all of them one by one.
