I previously attempted to get on to the latest Nougat FW which ended up in a soft brick which required DC-Phoenix to fix after flashing a b136 recovery rom back to the phone. I have unlocked bootload, but dont think i have root or TWRP installed anymore, im guessing after a complete recovery stock rom flash that gets removed, is there a way to check?.
What is the safest method for me to get to MM B166 FW to the latest Nougat FW please?
EDIT: am now on B182 updated via HiSuite
Hi,
I'm on C432, unlock bootloader. (It's a debranded phone).
I can't update. to B390.
I did a clean install of B386 using TWRP (flash the 2 zip file, clean cache). B386 works fine.
Update from phone did upload the B390 update, it rebooted into Huawei recovery and it failed at 12%. "Software installed failed".
So I've tried with TWRP (I have downloaded the B390 from Firmware finder) and it fails on update.zip with an error 7.
I've tried various versions of B390 (from Firmware finder) and they all fail when trying to install update.zip from TWRP.
Flashing back B386 with TWRP works (no errors when flashing update.zip).
It seems the update.zip from B390 tries to look for something missing in my phone....
Any ideas ?
Thanks !

Stay on B386 unless you're really keen for the latest security update.
Peace.
I can' t even go back to B182, B383. Only B386 I can install (hopefully). This tells me that something is corrupted in my phone.
I have the following error with TWRP:
assert_failed: block_image_verify("/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/system", "package_extract_file("system.transfer.list"), "system.new.dat", "system.patch.dat")
ERROR 7
With other update.zip, I also have
assert(update_huawei_pkg_from_ota_zip("UPDATE.APP"));
What's wrong in my phone ?

albelushi7 the problem is that update.zip fails with TWRP because of the assert.
I guess the problem is because my VENDOR, PRODUCT, VERSION are probably corrupted (or may be other partitions).
I can't flash them using fastboot.
I looking for a TWRP backup of these partitions for a L09C432 model. Can someone share a backup of these partitions ?
(Even a full backup with B390 installed for a L09C432 would be great !)
Thanks !
I'm going crazy with this. Tried to rollback to MM everything time I try to flash, it fails.
Either by
- TWRP : Update.zip fails with ERROR 7
- Huawei updater + HiSuite
- 3 Button methold and dload folder.
I can only flash B386. It works fairly OK but with some random crashes.
I don't understand what's wrong with my phone. It was an Orange phone, debranded to C432. I had several updates without any issues and problem came since B383.
Could not update with Phone updater to B386. Did with TWRP. But now, I can't install anything. Only B386 can be installed !!!

same thing happen with my phone. now, i use c185 with b390. you should try the same.
So you flashed the OemCust for C185 and it worked ? Good to know !
You were on C432 before ?
Did you try revert back to your original OemCust ?
Thanks !
Hi! I had the same problem. I solved it in this way:
Backup app+data with titanium
Revert to MM with the official procedure, upgrade via updater to nougat and install, always via updater the updtes until B390. Works everything.
The I reunlocked bootlader via adb, install twrp, rooted and restore apps with titanium.
Long procedure, but it worked

How lucky ! I did install MM Rollback and then MM (C432B136). I was on stock recovery and bootloader locked.
Update B136 -> B160 : Ok
Update B160 -> B182 : Failed
Now I can barely install anything (B386 anymore, it used, now it doesn't). Only TWRP...

i need help to unbrick my p8 lite 2017,
to start my phone was with "cust c555 pra-lx1 emui 5.0.1"
my initial idea was to debrand the phone, but all the guides I tried failed, always returning to the original ROM stock,
then i backup my oem info image, custom.bin and build.prop...
then I wanted to change the method, trying to install oreo emui 8.x, with this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/development/tool-flash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279
but result was failed, (I only have a doubt, when I was downloading the zip file hueuupdater via twrp I was doing it from the elite twrp and not from the twrp nochek oreo.....)
* last attempt was flashed via elite twrp an oem info file img (of a fw base nougat nobrand, corrected for my model pra-lx1)
after having opened the file oem, the problems have started, the phone does not go in fastboot mode, it does not go into e / or twrp recovery, it turns on and always restarts, I tried to flash a fw using the dload method but it does not work, I tried to reinstall the fw via erecovery using the wifi but does not start, always error .". Getting Package Info Failed"
now I really need help to restart the phone, someone is kind enough to help me or suggest a proper guide, to unbrick my phone?
thank you
i solved with correct oem info eu!!
Try Firmware finder for huawei + erecovery method , which is :
- download firmware finder on *another android phone* and search for exact phone model (ex : PRA-LA1C185)
- choose the very first firmware down the list
- Get an update thorugh dns >> Manually >> Register update
- After that , reboot your bricked phone into erecovery by ( power + volume*+*)
- press download recovery and last firmware
- wait till getting package
- by now should firmware start downloading
- let phone complete it's work and reboot
Hope that's work for you ?
i unlock my phone p20pro and i installed custom recovery
so when offical update 9.0 came out i press install and restart then log to custom recovery and stop
so is there any way to update without losing data through recovery ?
or is there anyone to getback offical recovery ?
You probably could use the recovery_ramdisk_nocheckP20.img
Google the filename.
