Hey everyone, think its a bit sad that we dont got our own phone section since ShotX/7i and the regular 7 doesnt share the same cpu architecture so forgive me for cluttering down but just wanted to try and help our fellow honor comrades
The files to do this is taken from the chinese huawei forum (http://club.huawei.com/thread-5761110-1-1.html) and thus I take no credit for the files, im merely making a english guide with chinese files to hopefully spur some development.
The root itself was made for Honor 7i which is the asian market version (I believe?) but ShotX is the same phone but for international market (with LTE 800Mhz band, not sure if there are any other differences) and root was performed and confirmed working by me on my ShotX with Lollipop 5.1.1/B130 firmware so no guarantes if it will work on other firmwares. Im also not responsible if you brick your phone or it catches on fire etc.
First you need to unlock your bootloader
and to do so you will first need to turn on the "allow bootloader oem unlock" so enter settings, about phone, and then press build number 10 times to activate "developer mode".
Go back one step into main settings and the open developer settings, find and enable "allow bootloader oem unlock" (if you have fingerprint or any other code activated then it will ask you for that code) and while you are in here make sure to click "enable usb debugging" aswell.
You will also need a bootloader unlock code from huaweis site by filling out the necessary information on this page http://emui.huawei.com/en/plugin.php?id=unlock&mod=detail
Product model: HUAWEI ATH-UL01 (settings->about phone->model number)
Product serial number: EGQ7Nxxxxxxxxxxx (settings->about phone->Status->Serial number)
Product IMEI: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (*#06# IMEI1 or settings->about phone->Status->IMEI1)
Product ID: xxxxxxxx (*#*#1357946#*#*)
So once youve got the code, make sure to write it down on a safe place, next you need adb toolkit. May I recommend Minimal ADB? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
Now when you´ve come this far, remember that as soon as you unlock your bootloader, the phone will factory reset and you will loose any data and settings made unless you make a backup before
Insert usb data cable into pc and phone, open command prompt and be in your adb installation directory.
Start with typing "adb devices" to see if your phone is detected and make sure to check on your phone when it asks for permission that you allow your pc. I was running windows 10 x64 when I rooted my phone and I didnt need any driver but your mileage may vary if on w7 or w8. Remember to use "adb kill-server" if you experience issues when trying to connect phone with adb.
If phone is detected then you should get something like
Code:
EGQ7Nxxxxxxxxxxx device
Then all is good and you can type
adb reboot bootloader
Now to check if phone still is with us you type
fastboot devices and you should see something like
Code:
8b0dd496 fastboot
If you are still with us then type fastboot oem unlock xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx where the xxxx´es represent your bootloader unlock code which you should have retrieved earlier from huaweis site.
To confirm that your bootloader is unlocked, simply type fastboot oem get-bootinfo and you should see
Code:
(bootloader) Bootloader Lock State: UNLOCKED
Congrats! Now youre ready to root the phone
If you recently unlocked bootloader then you need to activate developer settings again and turn on usb debugging aswell.
Download the files below
https://mega.nz/#!BsQiiYpL!xVwbyHTRsVGFsO6LpJacxP64gFrOlCNTRHTI1-vdLLw TWRP install program
https://mega.nz/#!9hQi2I7A!JX121sJ2vChMuxrx1puxf-L1rP9LSPaJW-JnqvEAzIg Root
Put the EMUI3.1 Android 5.1 ROOT补丁（不要双清不要解压.zip file somewhere on your phones memory storage where you can find it.
Unzip the 荣耀7i TWRP recovery.zip and open it up and then you press the second button which says TWRP REC and it should flash twrp. Power off phone and then press vol+ and power where you keep pressing vol+ but let go off power as soon as screen is lit and you should be in recovery in a bit. If you still got the default huawei recovery then redo the procedure (I pressed TWRP REC at first but didnt see any twrp installed so I then just pressed REC just to be disapointed again but 3rd time with TWRP REC it worked so not sure what goes on but just so you know if you also fail to get TWRP installed)
Once youre in twrp you will be greeted with chinese again but buttons are located on same spots so just compare it to a english twrp image https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TWRP#/media/File:TWRP_2.7.0.0.png
Just press top left button and select the root file you should have putted on your phone earlier and flash it, when its done just hold the physical power button to reset incase you´re unsure of the reboot button and you should be good to go
Grats on your rooted phone, after some cleanup (possible with root) this phone is flying like never before
Some highly recommended root apps
Rom toolbox lite, so you can flash roms/mods without knowing your way in the chinese twrp and uninstall apps etc
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.liberty.toolbox&hl=sv
Kernel adiutor, great for getting a bit more performance out of the phone by tweaking cpu and gpu speed
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.grarak.kerneladiutor&hl=sv
And lastly the great snapdragon camera which is pretty fast and nice to use which you need to flash in twrp (or with rom toolbox)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64410821&postcount=44
Its for one+ x but it works as expected for our ShotX/7i aswell (Obvisually dont use this if youre on a regular Honor 7 device since it doesnt have snapdragon processor)
thank you very much , I'll be trying my XShot
Theres a translated twrp now for those that wants

Did you tried russian forums? 4pda or others, often they have good devs there for some devices,which are not supported here on XDA.
Anyone who can't get to bootloader unlock site after login. Follow this [GUIDE] :

This helped me. Hope you also get the help.

Is there any solution for ShotX with android 6.0?
Please upload android 6.0.1 rooted room
So a while back I rooted my Huawei P8Lite ALE-UL00 (China) and it took a while but it worked out great. Then a few weeks ago I was sick and browsing on my phone when I got a notification from EMUI telling me to update. Being the stupid kid I am I did it. And then it would show the Huawei logo on and on and on. Destined to fix it went to the forums to fix it. did ADB and Fastboot, nothing. Except more problems. Now when I turn it on it directly says this:
RESCUE MODE
Attention!
Please update systems again
Update Use Guide:
--- Android Logo ---
Error!
Func NO : 10 (boot image!)
Func NO: 2 (load failed!)
you can simply flash it by fast boot mod, flash the rom version UL-00-C00-B220
which update version did you got ??
Yes , you need fastboot b220 . Later OTA b230
You could try to only flash the boot.img via adb.
One Problem
I cannot fastboot it, it doesnt take me out of that screen, on my computer it says waiting for device, if i type fastboot devices it doesnt show up. Any other ideas?

Well, first try again and dont forget to close hisuite it does that problem.
If it didint work, turn your device off then hold down volume down button and after 3-4 seconds connect your device to computer via a USB cable it should access you to the bootloader then flash the firmware manually.
important

Just bought this from Gearbest. It is unrooted. I don't have a "check for system updates" button in Settings,About phone.
1. Is there a way of enabling this or will OTA update happen automatically?
2. I have read about manually updating with the yotaphone flasher utility but some of the posts here are scaring me off. Has anyone successfully flashed the EU firmware onto this phone using the flasher?
Thanks
John
HI, I had the same with my phone from tinydeal.
You can update it manually, but prepare to lose all you data if you don't have it backed up in some way.
Also, you need to be sure that you are prepared to try again and mess around a little if it does not work. As far as i've read nobody has actually hardbricked the device by trying to flash it.
My advise would be to download the latest firware via the yotaflasher, whichever you like but rename the radio folder in the firmware folder in the yotaflasher folder so the radio part just stays the same, this worked for me.
then choose flash the firmware in the yotaflasher tool and when it asks to flash userdata, you better press yes, otherwise it will probably bootloop, but so this also means EVERYTHING on your device is deleted
Greets and good luck!

Thanks. I took the plunge and ran yotaflasher, downloaded the latest EU firmware and flashed the phone. It all went well, though after reboot there was a worrying 5 minutes as it stayed on the Yotaphone logo. Rebooted fine into lollipop and "about phone" now shows it as YD201. I didn't bother renaming the radio part of the firmware and, so far, it seems no worse or better than before flashing.
The system update option became available and it immediately downloaded the latest OTA update. All looks good so far.
I had contacted yotaphone support before I flashed the new firmware and they told me that as it was the Chinese version, there was no international support. I wonder if now it is showing as model yd201 whether I would get support ?

You don't need to put your phone into Android recovery mode to flash. Just hold power and volume down until your phone displays Downloading... Now run YotaFlasher on your PC to flash your phone with the firmware you like.
stuck after tried flash
I ran into trouble when trying to flash my new Yotaphone2: After the flash-process (really quick) the yotaflash-software asked if I wanted to flash user-partition also (or sometihng to that extent). I answered "no". Now the phone seems stuck, only showing "powered by android". I read all the posts, but could find no solution. Fastboot does not find the phone. I can not power it off using any buttons, so I cannot put in in the flash-mode.
Any ideas what I can do?

It's a common problem. Try this:
- Put your phone in download mode. Just keep holding power and volume down, it will get there eventually.
- Use the YotaFlash tool to flash the latest EU or RU firmware, whichever you like.
- After YotaFlash is finished your phone will reboot and still be in a bootloop
- Put your phone in download mode again. Just keep holding power and volume down.
- Now go into the command prompt on your computer and navigate to the YotaFlash folder (for me it is in C:\Program Files (x86)\yotaphone_flasher)
- Now type the following command with your phone still in download mode: fastboot flash -S 512M system firmware/system.img This will flash the failed system.img in multiple parts.
- After the flashing of the system partition is finished reboot your phone with the command: fastboot reboot
After this your phone will restart. It may take around 10 minutes to finish and if everything went right the Android unlock screen should appear.
Finally did work. Thanks a million! What helped was pushing power off and volume up, that brought up a menu where i could select to bring up "downloading" screen. You are the best, thank you!
What I learned today about being stuck in loops -
1. Bootloop - to exit a bootloop, press up volume and on button simultaneously to enter recovery mode. DO this until you arrive at the Android symbol, normal after 2 cycles, up to 2 minutes. You are then presented with a few options (select with on button), since you are flashing, normally you would go to bootloader mode "downloading" , then change the firmware (usually a zip) file.
This is method employed in the post just above.
2 The second is stuck at Yotaphone logo at beginning. Have you waited long enough ? Be patient, maybe it is still installing , allow 10 minutes before you try the following method . To break out of the stuck at Yotaphone logo, enter the bootloader mode , by pressing the on button and volume down button simultaneously. You cannot enter recovery mode as in point 1 above. This method will restart the phone. After the reboot starts, quickly hold down the volume up (only) button before the short "buzz" then you will enter recovery mode. You only have a few seconds to do this. In recovery mode you can delete the cache , user data or reboot but not enter bootloader mode.
still stuck in

still stuck in "waiting for device" and my phone is still in dowlaoding mood. please help.
To exit downloading mode , press the yotaphone ”on/off" button for about 30 seconds . It will restart in normal mode.
You have incorrect "adb composite" drivers and your phone is not communicating with your PC. Try to get rid of any bad adb drivers in device manager on your PC.

go to yotaflasher folder (usually under programme files) and ensure that the individual files of the firmware you want to install are there and not zipped!

Hi well I have reached this point too but how to I ascertain the address to enter? Yes, yotaphone_flasher in in \Program Files but I'm told that C:\Program is not a valid command... Sorry I know this is basic PC computing 101 but after hours of trawling the net I am none the wiser. I am running XP. How can I see what the file path would be? Apparently there is a helpful utility to bring up the file path in the command prompt but of course it has been deleted because XP is no longer supported...

Did you try "cd Program Files"?
Make sure you are in the root directory C:\ (type "cd.." to go one level back through the hierarchy)
then type "cd Program Files\yotaphone_flasher" (if that is your folder path)

Hey,
Facing the exact issue of not being able to see the update option!
Planing to take the plunge my self but am a bit skeptical about the lollipop update. On facebook yotaphone page ppl have been complaining a lot about the lollipop update slowing down the phone and lot many other issues.
If I could get a little review from your side it would be very help full.
If there are any issues?
If so what are they?
Are they worth taking?
should I stick to kitkat?
ETC

Hello,
I am from Greece and Ive bought from Vodafone a Huawei P9 lite vns-l21 before one month. Ive installed the nougat rom 370 with firmware finder but I made a mistake choozing the NRD-90M test key. So I begun to roll back to Marshmallow. Everything ok. Then Itried to install an other rom from firmware finder(i think C432b371) and again NRD-90M test key...
Again roll back to Marshmallow...so in the first step when i was trying to install with dload method the Huawei P9 Lite Rollback Package For L21C432 (EU) my phone stucked on boot loop but I had fastboot. Then I have unlocked the bootloader to see if there is anything that i can do with srk tool and now i have a beautifull bricked phone stuck :
"Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted.
you device is booting now"
In this point nothing happens, I can not go to fast boot, No recovery mode, The hardware keys not doing anything, only resetting the phone in loop..
I dont know what to do and Huawei wants 215euro to fix my phone.
My mistake I know but is there enything that i can do know? Its a new phone!
Sorry for my english
I would suggest getting an sdcard and creating a dload folder inside, then putting an official rom UPDATE.APP file inside the dload folder and try 3button method

As far as I understand, you can't even power off your device which is a problem since the 3button method won't work if you can't power off the device.

Hmm I dont get why they want 215 euro to exchange the storage chip.
I guess your phone is pretty much a brick now have fun. Lol sry
I had a similar problem with the boot-loop.
Press PowerOff until the screen goes black, and then immediately leave power-off and press Power Off + Volume Up for ever until the phone boots normally.
That's what I did and worked for me.

No he cant, I have the same problem. Cant fastboot, adb or 3 button method. Even tried unplugging battery then doing 3 button method.
Anyone sopve this problem with no fastboot no recovery no 3 buttons mode?
try to drain the battery, keep screen on, or keep phone on until battery is 0%, you can't turn it on . keep volume down and power pressed, plug usb to pc , if you're lucky fastboot could be ok
Hi there, I also managed to brick my P9Lite - no recovery, no fastboot. After draining the battery completly the phone starts fine but I can't install system updates. I guess I have to live with that. Unfortunately I can't activate bluetooth. Does anyone has an idea how to get bluetooth working again?
idk for your BT issue , but did you try Firmware Finder for Huawei ? easy to use, you will probably able to dl an update. don't use "small " package OTA, use full firmware, about1.6 or 1.8 Go, may could fix your BT.

Your latest working phone/system/firmware (ex. - mine was VNS-L31C432B381-before i upgraded to EliteRom).
Some information changes according to the country / region of the world in which you live,
so they are useful for those who help you to redirect to the correct thread / give right suggestions...
All the best guyz
didn't work out as Firmware Finder is only another way to find a firmware but not another way to install the firmware...
Yes , a way to get last firmware, or firmware you want through the huawei update app. Without firmware finder ,no way to " force" huawei update app to install anything you want on your device
Sorry for the late response, I'm reading the thread right now. Firmware Finder can also be used to install firmware through eRecovery. Install Firmware Finder for Windows: http://pro-teammt.ru/projects/hwff/v2/GetLatestVersion.action
You need to write down your existing and change both DNS addresses in your router to: 81.177.139.39
You also need to deactivate IPv6 protocol.
Open FirmwareFinderRewrite.exe, go to "common base" and search VNS-LXXCXXX (Your model and customization). Copy the link in "changelog" not of the newest, but of the 2nd or 3rd youngest firmware. Check if it has been approved by pasting the link under the tab with the checkmark (5th position counting from left). If the response is "This firmware was approved to install" you are ready to go.
Copy the same link in the proxy field (the cloud symbol, 4th position counting from left). Click on "set" and "register update".
Now switch off your phone, press "Vol+" and simultaneously connect it to the PC. You enter eRecovery now. Tap on "Download latest version and recovery". Your phone should start the download now, after a couple percent you can reset your router settings, the download will continue. If all is well, the firmware will then be installed.
Hello,
I have a Huawei P8 Lite (ALE-L21) phone with this error: FUNC 8 : HIFI Image, Error 1 Security Verify failed. I think I have tried everything to fix it but had no success, hence why I have decided to create this thread.
As you can figure out, the phone does not turn on, it only shows the huawei logo and shuts down. When pressing VOLUME UP + DOWN and POWER button, it used to show the HIFI image error screen, however when I press the key combination now, it only shows a red screen and turns off. I am able to enter fastboot and rescue mode by holding down the VOLUME DOWN button and plugging in a USB cable to the phone from a computer. Apart from that, I can't do anything else with the phone. (I do not have any software related to the phone installed (HiSuite), no backups, no nothing because the phone actually isn't mine and I have never actually played with it and androids in general.)

I have tried a lot of things to make the phone work again but nothing worked.
Recovery mode using HiSuite - "Your device is not supported for system recovery"
I have tried flashing different ROM's using fastboot - when I try flashing it says "FAILED - command not allowed", which I assume is beacuse the bootloader is locked?
installing a ROM using a SD card (Force update or something) - the red screen shows and the phone shuts down
Huawei Update Extractor - updating specific files e.g. boot.img, still not allowed to flash
TWRP - the same error ( not allowed )
Rollback to the previous versions using fastboot - not allowed
At some point I was able to wipe the cache on the phone, not sure if that matters anyhow.
When I am in the fastboot & rescue mode, there is a text in green saying "Phone LOCKED", which I assume means that the bootloader is locked? So, I was trying to get the bootloader unlocked, however found no success. I have also tried emailing Huawei support to get the bootloader code, however as you may know, they did not want to provide the code.
I was able to extract some information from the phone though, using these commands: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70483520&postcount=2
To get the bootloader code I have tried:
dc-unlocker - I think you need a working phone and have usb drivers installed for this to work and also I think you have to pay for this service
Kingroot + fastboot - https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/general/alternative-method-unlocking-bootloader-t3799294
Emailing Huawei support for the code - they don't want to provide one
https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p8/help/bootloader-unlock-unlock-code-huawei-t3792987
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to resolve the problem, or is it unsolvable? I would prefer to do it myself and not send the phone to Huawei or whoever as I would like to spend the least money possible. Also the warranty is long gone, since the phone has been bought in 2015.
Cheers
I have same issue, please anybody help
Exact same problem here, any help would be great.
