The method only applies to P8 and the author says it might not be applicable to Max as the recovery is P8.
However, just for the record
1. Unlock the bootloader

2. Fastbboot custom recovery *Need to create a TWRP recovery for the P8 Max
3. Root

Managed to root my phone.. even when I have updated the EMUI to B018, but there was an issue.. I tell you below
Step I follow from Chinese Forum below...
Preparation step :
1. download the tools from
https://www.mediafire.com/?9drsdo2f6hn4j34
2. Extract the content to your local. Note there are two folders :
- Folder 1 is for the tool that contains the TWRP recovery.img and the adb/fastboot tool,
- Folder 2 is for the original recovery
3. Copy the SuperSU zip to your phone (either in internal or external memory of your phone)
Installation step :
Step 0, unlock your bootloader (search around on how to do it)
1. Since I am using mac, somehow I don't need to install any driver, but if you using windows, install all the driver yourself
2. Enable the developer mode in your phone, and after that enable the usb debugging
3. Turn off your phone, and boot to fastboot (in off mode, connect the phone with your PC then press Volume Up and Power Button together)
4. Since now your phone has been connected to the PC, go to that Tool folder in respective of your OS, then overwrite the recovery with TWRP with fastboot command (install custom recovery) *note : for mac just add "./" in every command
- check the whether its connected : fastboot devices
- install TWRP : fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
5. Restart your phone and boot to recovery
- restart : fastboot reboot
- after reboot, turn off your phone
- reboot to recovery : turn on your phone by holding Volume Down with Power button
- Now you are at TWRP
6. Install SuperSU (root)
- Install SuperSU zip that has already been copied to your phone using TWRP (use the Install mode)
7. Reboot the phone
- Use reboot function in twrp
8. Profit
Theoritically the above things works but I have some issues following the above :
- After step 4, after recovery being flashed with TWRP seems like my phone Boot Partition is being overwritten too
- So when I rebooted the phone, it boot to TWRP instead
- So I tried to re-flashed the recovery with the original EMUI rom recovery (go to the folder "2.P8Max_Official_Recovery(For_restoration)" to find the original recovery.img). Also note that in the this folder, the adb and fastboot is only for mac. The one for windows use it in the tools
- This is done by going to fastboot again, then do command : fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
- This time using the original recovery
- Now when I rebooted the phone, it goes to EMUI recovery, then I just clicked restart to system or something
- After this, everything fixed, and I have SuperSU install and phone rooted
You can follow the above, but do it at your own risk, I am not responsible if your phone brick hehehe..

Instead of flashing the recovery to the phone you can just boot it one time. Just use fastboot boot recovery.img instead. This will load twrp and not flash it.

Speaker is damn good... but when playing games or watching movie, it is covered by the hand... so it would be better if the speaker is front facing..
otherwise it's good... but I do hate EMUI though... its making the experience sluggish...

The stock recovery when it's launched, it's in English, dun worry I have re-flashed it as I mentioned in the prev post..
Anyway the stock recovery is extracted from the current available ROM for P8 Max, which is in chinese. There is no international ROM available yet for this phone.

Sent from my Lenovo A6000 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Lenevo A6000 Unbrick/Fix For Any Problem
It's common since, when modified, the A6000 doesn't have a way to directly boot into recovery without a System or ADB command (Power Hold > Reboot > Recovery and "adb reboot recovery" respectively). However you can always boot into Download mode which acts as an emergency subsystem at any time. Have a quick guide on how to do that and you'll be flashing away custom ROMs again in no time.
(Optional but recommended steps will be market with an asterisk (*))
Disclaimer: You are doing everything out of your own free will and volition. I am in no way responsible to any potential damage you might cause to your device. This can occur in cases of not following the guide properly.
Below is the fix for problems when the phone has no OS to reboot from. In case of Xenon which is rooted, follow this:
Easy Guide
(This is for when a phone already has an OS to boot from)
1. Open Terminal Emulator
2. Write
Code:
su
reboot recovery
(On any Superuser permissions pop-ups press Grant.)
3. Follow Steps 4 and 5 from the guide bellow.
Downloads
If you are on Kitkat (4.4.X), Download This (Mirror)
If you are on Lolipop (5.X.X), Download This (Mirror)
If you are not sure, download both and try both, no damage should be done.
[Source]
Instructions
1. Download all the prerequisite files.
2. Power Off Your Phone by removing the battery.* (See Note 1)
3. Hold the Volume Down and Power keys until the phone vibrates once and the Lenovo screen appears. At the bottom it should say "Powered by Android" and under it some small Chinese letters and "Power key long press can reboot phone". (See Note 2)
4. Extract the downloaded ZIP files anywhere you want. You should end up with a "TWRP" folder.
5. Open that TWRP folder and run "Boot-TWRP_A6000.bat"
6. If everything went well, you should be in TWRP recovery. Flash your desired ROM following the instructions from their thread, and everything should now be fine. (See Note 3)
Notes
1. I have noticed that sometimes my phone will not recognize that it's in Bootloader mode and will try to boot normally after a few seconds along with the fastboot not recognizing it. Theory: it doesn't shut down completely when rebooted via Holding the Power button, and tries to boot like nothing is wrong. I don't have a concrete fix, the best i can offer is to try different button combinations. (Vol. Down+Power / Vol. Up+Power / Vol. Up+Vol. Down+Power)
2. If you get the problem described in Note 1 do steps 4 and 5 before step 3. The .bat script will wait for the phone, as soon as it detects the Bootloader it will do it's job.
3. If something went wrong, leave a reply, I'll see if i can guide you through it. Remember to follow instructions carefully!
i had a simple sol....
Just boot into bootloader by Press n hold vol - an power ... den do wht u r doing .. Connect cable .. to pc.. n do the command in cmd.. That it

My phone is not getting power on,though i have done factory reset from twrp 3.000 recovery.Still no go struck in boot menu with rotating logo after 1+ symbol..
Hello . Firstly try get your phone into fastboot mode. Once you have get up adb. (if you don't have adb, or find it really confusing to install, get wugfreshs root tool kit has built in adb terminal)
Open up your terminal plug in your phone and type
Code:
fastboot devices
Something should come up .
Once you done that grab the latest twrp for your device. Then FLASH! AAHHHHHHH, PROTECTOR OF THE UNIVERSE. In fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Once that's done type
Code:
fastboot boot recovery twrp.img
The it should boot into recovery from. Here your computer should recognize your device . You should be able to easily drag and drop a new rom and gaps on to your device

Also factory reset only works on a rom level. So if roms wrong. It won't do anything
So, I had the same problem and here is my fix for it.
I am not sure, but I think you will lost all your data on this way :/
You can Skip the first 2 lines, because when you installed TWRP you already done this
1. Go to a Computer and install Adb
2. Download Minimal Adb and Fastboot
3. Download the offical Rom on the OP2 Site and copy the .zip file into the Fastboot folder
4. Rename the .zip into rom.zip
5.Connect your phone to the Computer
6. Start into Twrp, go to advanced, click on adb Sideload
6. Now go to your computer, into the Fastboot Folder and start the command line and type: adb sideload /path/to/rom.zip
7. It should now take some minutes to install the Rom, you will see how many percentages on the Screen (It will only show until 50%, don't worry about that)
8. Voila, your Phone should now work again
To root it again, there are some modified UpdateSu-Files specially for your current Rom.Version. When you are on 3.5.6 you can use the attached file
Hi,
I'm all new to rooting and I got a major issue.
Here's the story.
Wanting that substratum themes, I looked up for rooting my devices
I followed this guide to unlock the bootloader, and all was fine.
Next, I followed this one for rooting, but at the "installing nexus drivers" step, my PC wasn't showing off any driver setup or something related to a driver.
I pressed Enter, despite the fact that I didn't know if I had nexus drivers properly installed, and my phone didn't want to boot up. Stuck on the boot animation, for more than 20 hours.
Next day, I came back and found this mega thread about unbricking. I followed it, and now I'm in a boot loop: my phone reboot 1-2 secs after showing the home screen, but I can still enter in fast boot mode. My phone is still unlocked and when I enter Huawei's eRecovery (by long-pressing up volume button) to try to "Download new version and recovery" it connects to my Wi-Fi, then fails.
Thanks for your patience,
Mx3_
Do I understand correctly? Do you wont root your phone ?
1 st. With method which presented, you can only root your device if you have Android 5 or lower, if you have android 6 Marshalow - you must use " Systemless ROOT"
2nd. You must upload new ROM on your device ( i have special tool for do this "srktoolHuawei" - this is a special tool for flashing every new rom on a huawei device )
3.rd." HuaweiUpdateExtractor" - this is a tool for extract new ROM ( roms for huawei, you can find in huawei webside ) - download rom for your device, extract by this tool, copy and paste inside folder of "srktoolHuawei"
Next...
Plug you device to PC by usb, go to recovery mode and if you have unblocked bootloader, should be writen:" Phone is unlocked" - > Open "srktoolHuawei", go to Command Prop and then:
- IMPORTANT !!! - you must upload files: SYSTEM, RECOVERY, CUST, BOOT - you can do this using that commands:
1. fastboot flash system system.img
2.fastboot flash boot boot.img
3.fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
4.fastboot flash cust cust.img
Reboot and system should starts correctly...
---------- Post added at 08:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:39 PM ----------
If you wont to root your device with SYSTEMLESSROOT method, you should do like that:
1. If you upload recovery by "srktoolHuawei" - > download TWRP recovery and upload into your device ( copy and paste TWRP img. file into this tool folder insted of traditional android recovery file, next change name from TWRP, to just recovery.img and upload using command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img )
2. Now - if you press volume + - and power together, you should have TWRP Recovery insted of Huawei Recovery, thats good...
3. Next...BETA-SuperSU-v2.62-3 - upload this version of supersu into your SD card...
4. Next - go to TWRP mod, next to advanced, next to Terminal Command and write command like this:
echo SYSTEMLESS=true>>/data/.supersu
Confirm this command and back to install ( this command means that you will install SuperSU and it will make systemless root for you )
When if you have install, then select supersu which you downloaded before and now simply flash it by TWRP, next reboot and you should installed supersu and rooted device...
I successfully rooted, thanks ! but now i installed a substratum theme (pixel ui), uninstalled some huawei apps and rebooted to apply effects, and i'm stuck again in a bootloop ! tried wipe cache with TWRP, but didn't work :/

Please tell me you made a back up in TWRP if you did just use the RESTORE option in TWRP if not you will have to go through the above again to get back to stock but missing out flashing the recovery partition as yours is working.
When your phone boots make a back up in TWRP before trying out anything so its easy to recover

Method Issues
Bro, I have faced a few problems since I have started
i) When I type in adb devices it shows my phone but unauthorized
so I have to allow it as you said but only after a reboot and doing the process again will it show authorized
ii) after entering adb reboot bootloader it doesnt show bootloader locked but straight up fastboot mode
iii) then when i enter fastboot oem unlock it shows asks me if I want to unlock, I press on volume up. Then it again asks me some other thing and I hold the volume up down and power together. Next I reboot into my phone. All data erased. I setup it again.
Now, does this mean my bootloader is unlocked? When I reboot it shows something on the middle right- unlocked..
So does this mean I continue and install twrp now? or what?

1 - It doen't matter if its authorized or not..
2 - yes! thats correct it directly takes you to fastboot mode it use to show bootloader locked for old Moto phones).I 'll make changes in the thread.
Yes! your bootloader is unlocked successfully..
if you see something like 'Your devices is unlocked and cant be trusted' on the left hand side during the moto logo.

Thanks for your help Y_Y
Hey bro, I am not about to install the recovery.
Before this may I ask why we need to flash boot_XT1663_356.img ?
Also, isn't this command wrong? fastboot flash boot boot_XT1663_356.img
It should be fastboot flash boot boot_XT1663_356.img
Without the boot twice ryt?
Also, will the data be erased after installing TWRP recovery or not? If not, will it be erased after installing the SuperSU?

1 - It is the Image file which is specifically build for S356 (build number) hence it is necessary to flash it before flashing TWRP. If you don't flash boot image then you might face boot loop issues and hard brick your phone.
2 - The correct command is 'fastboot flash boot boot_XT1663_356.img' . the first boot is to recognize cmd that we are flashing a boot image and the second boot is the name of image file.
3 - Flashing TWRP and Super SU won't erase your data.

I really thank you for this great effort
all things went good but I had a problem that I didn't find the SuperSU-v2.82-201705271822.zip although I am sure that I put it in the internal memory
please help
Hi there,
After I unlocked the bootloader, pushed the twrp recovery successfully, got stuck in the recovery mod each time I reboot the phone so can't boot the stock rom. Done wipe factory reset and format data and still nothing changed. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance OP
Edit: Just solved issue by flashing stock firmware

Well, yes ... The new boot.img for removing encryption. Especially for post-OTA updating to XT1663_S364_170803_ROW.
boot_XT1663_364.img
Does anyone know how to keep your Moto M rooted even after updating to the new security update of 7.0? Do we just flash the new .img file or what? Kinda newb here
