Hi everyone !
I rooted my Honor 5C a while ago and everything went smoothly. After installing Xposed, some modules and some nice root apps, I decided to take a step forward.
Lately, I heard of MicroG to replace Google Apps and Services. Since I'm actually and for quite some time trying to degooglise myself more and more, it catched my interest. Thus, according to several tutorials, I used Root App Deleter to uninstall GApps, in order to replace them with the MicroG framework. Then I reboot and... well my device was unable to pass the Honor screen. So I went to TWRP recovery menu and tried a factory reset, which changed nothing, so I went deeper in the wipe settings and wiped... pretty much everything yeah. This was quite a stupid thing to do, now I don't even have an OS installed on my phone...
And of course, I've been stupid enough to never did a nandroid backup. Feel free to yell or mock me, I know I really should have...
Anyway, at this point, it seems that the only available option to me would be to flash a stock rom to my device, but I can't find one for the EU version NEM-L51. Actually, I can't find any stock rom for Honor 5C on Huawei site, nor on the web. I did quite some research today and I swear I couldn't find anything, anywhere. And here I am.
Please guys, can someone help me ? I know I'm at fault for not taking my precautions before doing some risky stuff, and I guess it was going to happen to me one of these days, but I hope there is something I can do.
Thanks in advance for reading and eventually trying to help me if you can.
See ya !

Thanks for answering. I installed that software on Windows, but by searching for "NEM-L51", I got a list of several models : NEM-L51C10B141, NEM-L51C432B130, NEM-L51C432B120, NEM-L51C10B121, NEM-L51C432B104 and NEM-L51C432B103. I have no idea which one I should try to download. Can you help me figuring that out ?
Again, thank you for your help.

i guess thats the only thing you can do unless someone else uploads a twrp backup that you can flash.
to start download honor multitool and huawei update extractor. use the unbrick option use lowest Bxxx number first until the phone boots. may have to wait a few minutes
or idk if you can use the 3 button flash method, considering you dont know which version you have installed previously.

I don't know this tool, but after a quick research, it looks like Honor Multitool has been made for Honor 6 and 7 devices. Or am I wrong ? As for Huawei Update Extractor, isn't a tradition file extractor good enough for this ? I thought I could flash the ROM from the TWRP menu, but it's not going to be that easy, right ?
Anyway, links for B103 and B104 are dead. But why some zip are NEM-L51C432Bxxx and others NEM-L51C10Bxxx ? Are they from different devices ? Guess I can try them all regardless, things won't get any worse because of that, right ?
Oh, and some zip files are OTA and others are FULL, but assuming I don't have an OS installed, I guess I have to go for the FULL types, correct ?
Sorry for asking so many questions, I'm pretty unaware of what to do in these circumstances and I really hope I'll be able to get my phone working again...

the multitool should work for all as honor phones are similar, need huawei update extractor. google which version of the phone you have to see which Cxx you need. yes you need full
p.s you can also use this method https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-7/help/to-destroyed-ur-h7-noob-friendly-t3554793

In the end, I ended trying the second method from there : http://www.gizmoadvices.com/install-stock-firmware-honor-5c-b102/ with a file I got from Huawei Firmware Finder. Basically, in case this can help someone, I extracted the archive content in the internal storage (my phone was plugged to my PC while in TWRP menu), then created a dload folder within which I cut/paste the update.app previously extracted. Then I powered off my device and rebooted it while pressing the volume up, down and power button as you also suggested. After the process completed and another reboot, the whole thing was apparently good to go. For now anyway, I receive phone calls and texts, and network is functioning as well.
Still, I noticed something strange. I downloaded the NEM-L51C10B141 build version, but in my phone info, I have the NEM-L51C432B141, which wasn't even in the list of the zip files from Huawei Firmware Finder. How comes ? Plus, I can't know for sure, but I think I hadn't this version since it is apparently the most recent one available. Is it possible that I have now a more recent build version than my phone had considering it didn't seem to want to update beforehand ? Also, what could be the fallout after that ?
Again, thank you. You've been a huge help, I wouldn't have made it without you. I'll be more careful next time.

Well, I looked at the options and it's clearly not the version I had before, there are some differences here and there. Basically, the build number just refer to the latest security patches, is that it ? So if I have a more recent one, I guess it's just lucky me. Dunno why Huawei didn't propose me to update to it though... And I'm still on Android 6.0.
Sad thing is, this method apparently locked again my bootloader. I guess TWRP is gone too then... Long road ahead.
Thanks again for your help.

Okay, thanks anyway.
I'm using a rooted huawei p9 Eva l19 on b390 stock firmware. Unfortunately she is sick and her Bluetooth is not working. I read on the net that clearing the cache of the Bluetooth app would help but I can't find the app in settings.
Any suggestions
Pls reply
Hmm, i am on the same boat.
Will watch your thread too, hope someone will have a solution.

Rollback to Marshmallow & Again update to Nougat
Great, thanks Rafa Mistry!
I tried to go back to B182, that's Marshallow, failed at 5%.
But I searched a bit and i think we can use the procedure suggested here, Abhisht009.
I don't have the time to try right now, but i will do it tomorrow night, let's hope we will have good working phones soon again.
If you need back to Android use rom from Huawei website and download Android 6 than use method 3 buttons

I dont have time right now to do this but I know how to
You must first download the rollback package for your p9 model from the huawei website
Then download an older version of marshmallow (not B182, use an older one)
First install the stock recovery
Flash the doll back package using dload
Boot up
Flash the marshmallow firmware
Done
You should probably remove the fingerprints before
Tell me if it works
After trying loads of older MM firmwares, which all gave me compatibility errors, i ended up flashing mOOnlight ROM.
Bluetooth is working, all is good now.
Hello everyone.
Last night i am tried to update my EMUI 5.0.2 Pra-lx1 p8 lite 2017 phone to the Oreo update 8.0.0.322 downloaded from Team TMs' huawei firmware finder.
My phone is allready "Bootloader unlocked" and "FRP unlocked" there is no problem. I can reach to TWRP( there is a huge problem i will explain it).
on the top of my way i got EMUI 5.0.2 and i unlocked the bootloader and FRP.
then i installed the EliteTWRP-3.2.1.
after this i downloaded
HuRUpdater 0_3.zip
and the 3 neccesery FullOTA-MV-OP files that includes the
update.zip
update_data_full_public.zip
update_full_PRA-L11_hw_eu.zip
then i do everything exatly on this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/development/tool-flash-official-firmware-recovery-t3769279
and voilla!!! i got the Oreo update installed.
BUT....
i dont get the file manager app its lost!
i can not get themes or get in any of huawei apps sign in or get in!
so for this. my next step is goint to do reflash the oreo how i did it again.
BUT....
i can not do this because the instaled TWRP does NOT support OREO. Applause for this
so i'am tried 3 different TWRP that can be used on HUAWEI phones.
First one is this i dont know who is the developer but ists intercafe is chinese or korean.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rlQPRP234PoXY_yqup3oK_joOZGSIker/view
i tried to instal this over adb fastboot. BUT I can NOT. Because Oreo will do this on RAMDISK_RECOVERY!!!! WOOOWWWW
i did this and i reinstaled the oreo update like i did it first but in this new TWRP.
İt flashed my OREO but on the bootlogo the HUAWEI opening sound curropted before finished the sound and gets to restart.
after restart eRecovery opens and give me TWO funcional choises!!! Like Jig SAW
anyway...
the first option is DOWNLOAD LATEST VERSION AND RECOVERY
BUT for my chanse!!!! or mean bad LUCK!!! eRecovery WiFi doesnt see the EDUROAMs ACCESS POINTS WELL RIGHT!!!!
so i passed the first one and we are on the MAGICAL point.
the second option is the WIPE DATA/FACTORY RESET
on this time i CAN NOT DO THIS BECAUSE THE ORGININAL RECOVERY PART IS GONE!!!! YEAP I CAN NOT DO FACTORY RESET.
WHEN i choose this option it will go to the TWRP recovery nice huh!? NO.
so what will i do i know my phone is not BRICKED YET! İF THERE İS TWRP THERE İS HOPE!
BUT I DO NOT KNOW WHAT SHOULD I DO RIGHT KNOW
please help me....
with this Recovery (TWRP)( not usefull beacuse you can not use them )
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/p8-lite-2017-development/recovery-recoveryoreonocheck-install-t3777974
i found this under a members signature and i give a try but it wont work this gives me just a big error
But this error gets my phone a factory reset after than i flashed this Recovery (better then the chinesee korean languges type one ;D )
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/p8-lite-2017-development/unofficial-twrp-3-2-1-0-oreo-t3773970
and i tried to flash the Oreo update again with HuRUpdater_0_3.zip
but now I am at the begining. System works there is no issue over hardware.
But there is missing system apps like File Manager. Themes and so on....
And the best thing is The BUILD NUMBER is 8.0.0.046(08TO)
BUT I flashed the f*ckn' 8.0.0.322!!!!! WHY GOD!!!! WHY!!!!
Could anybody iluminte about what the hell is going on right now please i need to know why is why
Dude you need to rename the files before you put them in the folder
HuRUpdater 0_3.zip --> just delete the number (HuRUpdater.zip)
update_data_full_public.zip --> update_data_public.zip
update_full_PRA-L11_hw_eu.zip --> update_all_hw.zip

It would, main issue is that HuRUpdater is made for many Huawei phones not just for prague, when you flash the HuRUpdater.zip it can only flash the update.zip because you don't need to rename it. It doesn't flash the other zips because they're not named correctly, hence the updater can't find the zips to flash.

there is a misunderstood i allready rename the 3 update files. i used two times the nocheck recovery method and works well but the issue is the same. i only dont rename the hurupdater file. i will give a try now.
Let me know if it works, if that doesn't work for you too I can't help you but I just uploaded the stock oreo erecovery to GDrive and you can download it and flash it to recovery_ramdisk partition (because you are on Oreo) then make a factory reset or go back to nougat https://drive.google.com/open?id=157C0CI5CqSEzvQRB7Yt5K1WPtYBcaO08
EDIT: I didn't read it right sorry that you can't connect to wifi. Try wiping data-cache-dalvik-system on TWRP and then flashing the HuRUpdater.zip
You may also have a bad download, I mean one of the zip files you have may be corrupted

same result i did it just you are said. it flashed oreo and it booted and works. But there is no File manager can not use themes. Build number is 8.0.0.046(08TO). I can make call connect to internet over LTE / 3G / EDGE.
is this issue are from that my phone is from another region instead from europe? İ downloaded the PRA-LX1C432B322-(8.0.0.322) from Team MT FirmwareFinder over Huawei host servers three times. even i download the stock nougat rom in the same way. I flashed the nougat but this time build number is NRD-testkeys . same issue file manager themes not appear or work.

If you get that build number issue on nougat it might be about your oeminfo partition. Try flashing PRA-LX1C432 oeminfo on this thread : https://forum.xda-developers.com/8-lite/how-to/share-oeminfo-t3740734
Beware, it locks your bootloader, so unlock it after you flash the file. Then start erecovery and download the nougat firmware to get your device ready for Oreo, then flash the HuRUpdater.zip . I hope this works!

I don't think it changes the IMEI. I had a pra-lx1c464(Turkey) and I rebranded it to c432 I had no issues with it. It will change your device to Dual-SIM though if you have a single SIM device, which has no effect at all. I can still use my bootloader unlock code, and I have used it many time again and again after rebranding the device. Also you're trying to install PRA-LX1C432B322 Oreo right? Your device should be branded as PRA-LX1C432 first

nope nothing works... I flashed the oem info from the link that you givin here. but the oeminfo doesnt change the Build number but the device changed to honor 8 lite chinese normal version on nougat. After flashed the oreo the build number dont changed and the themes not working file manager also not excist.
Factory reset

Have you tried to reset the phone to its factory defaults . In this way I fixed missing apps problem .
I tried factory reset over Recovery bu it doesnt changed any thing. Then i tried the factory reset from the settings of the rom. Same result.
I just installed it manually. I have the 8.0.0.46 (08TO) but I don't have any issue, I have apps and themes..is it correct the version not should I expecting something different?
Please let me know
Same build number as in my settings. Themes wont work because regional issues. When i change phones language to english themes apps works well. Thats the themes app i admit it but.. in the other hand i dont get the in games(i dont remember the original name of it) app comes with oreo. I dont have the huawei login future anymore i think this is because of the unlocked bootloader not tried to look again then do a factory reset. I can not rebrand my phone. I know because when i flash europen oeminfo or not if i install the stock emui 5.0.3 again it says no build number against test keys . On the other side i can use my phone well i dont have any problem. And i forgot to say i dont even the file manager i installed the hidisk apk that i found on internet.
My advise is dont do this to your phones wait for a official update. But for us this is a long hard road

Unfortunately you can't downgrade. Once you have flashed a higher bootloader version you are stuck with it.
If you are on bootloader v5 you may be able to downgrade to the last Oreo build, I am not 100% sure on that though.
Only if they are same bootloader

You need to be rooted to be able to get that working again, some roms also have that patched already...
Although the thread is about the s7 I believe it is exactly the same for our note 8.

I dont want to root again.... rooting will not let banking apps work.moreover if i wanted to root. Root files for note 8 pie are not available right now.

As far as I am aware it is not possible without root.

You can flash TWRP, copy /system/build.prop to the PC or SD Card, edit it on the PC, put it back in /system.
Once you are done, just flash stock revovery via TWRP.
It sounds hard, but it's eazy if you know what you are doing. Banking apps will still work, and with build.prop edited s health will work too.
I am not gonna walk you trough the entire process but this is a summary.

Oooh that, it's nothin.
You just need to hold volume up + bixby and power just before the phone auto restarts from download mode. When you do that it will boot twrp.
If you don't understand it go watch MaxLee on youtube, his method of flashing twrp on s8/n8

The way I know it, there is no way without twrp or root, and you said you don't want root because of banking apps.
If you flash twrp, do the thing with build.prop, and then flash stock recovery, you could still recive OTA updates and banking apps will work.
You just have to set up s health before the next OTA because that will revert built.prop back to normal.
But as long as you set up s health before that it will be ok.

Leave that bro coz m not ready to do that. Just help me with 1 thing if possible. There was other way to use s health on knox tripped device. That was downloading s health 4.8 version install it and open it. It will stuck at loading screen. Update it and it will work fine. Earlier i get it working that way when my device has oreo version. But now after pie update when i try to install any s health apk before version 5 that is 4.5, 4.7 or 4.8. I always get a message app not installed. After version 5 app get installed but again with root problem. Can u help me with installing old version. I dont know why s health old version is not getting installed. I had some other apps that are now discontinued. That apps get installed easily

The reason you can't install the modded version is because the version that was modded is less than pre-installed version on the device. As of now, you can't downgrade apps, only upgrade. Your only option is to wait for someone to patch a later version from the version you got installed on your phone.
I think someone can even just change a number in AndroidManifest.xml install it and then just upgrade.
I'm sure a patched version will pop-up again somewhere on xda, just make sure it's later version than the version pre-installed into the system.

Hmmm.... lets wait for some godman to do the favour..... i am from medical profession so dont know much abt this coding stuff. Otherwise i would have done that myself :laugh:
Alirghty so i bought a used samsung note 8 duos. it says it on the back, in the software, in smart switch, heck even the AP and CSC files are infact for a SM-N950F
Here is where the problem is as far as I've figured out, I'll explain what the firmware files are on the device taken from dialing *#12580*369#:
BL:N950NKSU5DSK1
AP:N950FXXS7DSH1
CP:N950NKOU5DSH1
CSC:N950FOXM7DSG1
The phone runs fine honestly but its bugs me that there two different binaries mixed in my phone from what i can tell the BL and CP are from a Korean level 5 Binary (also can someone tell me why security levels matter now?) and the AP and CSC are from F model level 7 Binary
I cant flash anything stock cause its the only thing ive tried and it just wont let me. I am downloading a level 5 binary in *hopes* that it doesnt see an issue with the security levels between firmwares as i always get the fricken PIT error or secure download error orrrr the magic string invaild
All i need is a way to get my dualsims back up and running ive got two imeis on this phone which ive checked online and theyre working also id love it if i could just get all 4 files to be from the same firmware zip
FYI the only thing ive been able to flash is TWRP after which i got to installing no-verity and magisk, Ive been using twrp backups as a failsafe to revert back to the 'original' state my phone was in and thats the only thing working for me so far and i may or may not be a noob in flashing samsung devices

The reason for that is because the phone has obviously been repaired using different hardware from different devices. It's never going to be able to flash normal firmware being that there's different hardware in it. If you want to upgrade that you'll need to use the different versions of firmware for each different hardware.. I'd just send it back if I bought it from somewhere like that.
Revert to Stock
I owns one Galaxy Note 8 SN950-F Indian version,
I have installed one custom ROM for my mobile last month and now i need to revert back to stock.
How can i do it ? Once i installed stock OS using Odin but Knox looks crashed and apps like secure folder not working !
Can i get it done through service center ? When i contacted them they said its impossible as you have rooted once.

Once Knox is tripped it takes a motherboard replacement to revert it.
If SF (Secure Folder) is that important to you, stay on a custom rom that has patched SF patched already.
Literally all TWRP/Rom threads warn you of this, always read the whole OP of any thread in the future.
Yeah. Thats what im doing now. Running on doctor ketans rom.
but im little worried now. Because haven't used any custom roms and worried about security issues.
Can we still go back to stock os ? With genuine updates?

Just follow the steps in the thread below. At the bottom of post #2 you can download "samfirm" for you Pc, it will let you download the latest filmware at a decent speed. (once back on stock you should disable OEM lock so your bank app, Netflix etc will work)

Like I said to you above, once Knox is tripped SF won't work, if SF is that important to you stay on a custom rom that has patched SF. If you're worried about security updates use DeluxeRom which has last months security patch.
