Question : Is OEMinfo included in update.zip ? - Honor 8 Lite Questions & Answers

i wiped everything on my phone without backing up, and i see people extracting SYSTEM and CUST and other partitions from the stock framework.
so does update.zip contain everything ?

Yeah...the update.zip has them all but you can't flash everything via fastboot...some partitions are hardly protected...like the OEM info and the vendor...you ether find a suitable backup or use DC Phoenix to flash a stock ROM on your device

I used fastboot to install the stock recovery which i got form:
http://www.rootjunkysdl.com/?device=Huawei P8 Lite&folder=Firmware
I used these links to do it:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UN7XW4HnFT8
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YfWYKREeQeQ
And then installed the offical rom through the stockrecovery by putting the dload folder on my micro-SD

For some reason all apps and things were still on my phone afterwards, i hope it will help you.

Some Updates can't be installed over the b136.
The german b170 (a partial update) needs the b132 or the b133 to upgrade to b170. Directly update from b136 to b170 isn't possible

I have two Ale_21.
One is stock and never modified and went from 136 to 170 without problems.
The problem is with the other "modified phone", in some way I think ota detects
it was modified before and gives error.

Could you please be a little more specific?
You mean you downloaded stockrecovery.img form here
Code:
rootjunkysdl.com/files/Huawei%20P8%20Lite/Firmware/stockrecovery.img
? And then you startet the phone in fastboot mode with the command
Code:
adb reboot bootlader
? Last you send the command
Code:
fasboot flash recovery stockrecovery.img
?
I already regret installing TWRP since I can't even try to install further Updates via dload. So I just don't want to make any more mistakes and/or brick the phone.
@Schwedenbitter
Yes that's pretty much what I have done.
You need to have the right version in order to install via update

No you need to extract it with huawei update extractor to get the recovery.img
And you need to install it with fastboot.

Yes it is possible. Just download the complete N factory image, plus the modified boot image (kernel).
Extract the system.img, and vendor.img out of the factory image.
And now, flash the three files using TWRP - system.img (system image), vendor.img (vendor image), and boot.img (kernel).

No, you won't loose any data. Your userdata/data partition will stay as is. You will just wipe the system and boot through TWRP, and then flash the listed image files.

flashfire is a great app, does it all for you...
I simply downloaded OTA through the system update, then after it was downloaded instead of allowing it to "Restart and Install" which would have failed due to my custom recovery, I just opened flashfire. It found the OTA automatically and I hit Flash button. Done!
I ended up loading up from the PC. It's better this way because I only had 2gb of space on my 64gb!!! Bad thing is, I have spent about 2hrs installing!

So I can use flashfire to flash the latest N beta even though I'm currently running a custom ROM?

Foes your custom recovery still work? I tried this method and it just wouldn't boot into TWRP. Been trying all day thru different methods. Idk how to use adb fastboot on a computer so I'm a lil lost when trying any other method. I've been using Wug's toolkit but until he pushes an update for it I'm on stock MM until i can figure something out.

why does the wug toolkit not work?
I don't know a lot about Flashfire as far as it's compatibility with Custom Roms and such. I was previously on stock android Marshmellow with root and twrp. My phone downloaded the OTA for Android N when I "enrolled" in the beta program. I chose not to allow the phone to attempt to install the OTA as it would likely fail due to my custom recovery, to my surprise when I opened flashfire it offered to install the "update.zip" (AKA the OTA) and I simply hit "flash". It installed the OTA (did not use TWRP) and rooted my phone all on it's own, I did not lose anything no data was lost.
As a side not I would not recommend using Flashfire if you don't know how to use fastboot commands and the Android SDK. It is not complicated and it is a almost certain way to fix your phone when things go haywire. I strongly encourage you to learn how to use it as it is essential to owning a Nexus imo. These root kits and flashfire programs are cool, but they are always subject to failures...

Software install failed!

Hi guys,
I have a honor 6 plus (PE-TL10), it was running EMUI 4. I flashed TWRP 2.8.7 and then wiped all partitions through it(cust,system,etc) then flashed stock recovery back, now i am trying to install EMUI 4.0.1(Android 6.0) via 3 buttons Huawei update but it stops at 5% and fails. Can you guys provide me with any help, I really need it.
Also now when i am trying to wipe data thru stock recovery i get an weird error message at almost 25% saying "reset balong modem setting fail", which making it more difficult to get back stock rom.
Just last question; the Unbrick option in the "HONOR_6_and_6Plus_Multi-Tool", wil it restore the device to stock rom and fully functional state after that or it will miss some parts of the stock rom ?
Many thanks and regards

For you to restore to stock you need to flash boot, recovery, system and cust.
Make sure you have stock boot and recovery to for forced update (3 buttons).
What happens in most of the cases is boot and recovery files are corrupt.
I would try the unbrick of the Multitool. If it fails, I would flash manually all img files for each partition. But using the same firmware version as the last installed one.
Post your results and I will try to help.
1:Extract the ROM with huawei update extractor
2:download latest minimal adb and fastboot drivers and install them
3ut the extracted system.img,recovery.img,cust.img,boot.img and userdata.img into the fastboot.exe folder
4: boot into the fastboot mode
And finally flash the above mentioned imgs one by one with this command
fastboot flash XXX XXX.img
After flashing files type
Fastboot reboot
and every thing should be fine again

Thank you for answering, I did used Huawei MultiTool and Unbricked my device. I flashed four img files(SYSTEM,CUST,RECOVERY,BOOT) and now i am back to stock rom and running smoothly.
I tried to use force update feature on my device after that but again i got the same result, it stopped at 5% and failed. I guess i will keep it the way it's now.
Many thanks; you guys are awesome!

Thank you, I did that except for userdata.img file, the Huawei MultiTool only mentioned 4 files(system,recovery,boot,cust). Now my device is running back again on stock rom. Should I flash userdata.img file or is it ok?
Just a question that i keep asking myself; inside the stock update.app file there are 22 img files, what do they do? I only flashed four of them so what purpose do the rest serve as? if the device can operate fully functional with four of them!
Many thanks,

Don't use any other img file. And don't flash userdata.
If it works, don't change it. ?

Huawei P10 Lite (WAS-LX1AC109B110) bricked?!

I wanted the unofficial LineageOS on my device, but i messed up some things. Since it didn't work I asked for help and was told that I should flash the stock ROM's image files via fastboot. So I downloaded the WAS-LX1AC109B110 version update.zip file, grabbed the update.app file and extracted it. I got the BOOT.IMG, CUST.IMG, RECOVERY.IMG, SYSTEM.IMG files. Flashed them one-by-one via fastboot and ended up bricking my devices.
I don't know what happened, but now all my device can do is to boot the Huawei eRecovery, where I can do nothing;
and to boot the EMUI updater (or what is it called; the one what uses the dload folder on the sd card), but it either says that the package file doesn't exist, or if I put the update.app file(and the other files from the update.zip) into the dload folder it says "Software install failed! Get help from: (an emui page link)" (the link redirects to a 404 error page).
I can't boot into fastboot mode, neither into the recovery.
Please tell me that I don't need to buy a new phone, it's pretty new.
Have you tried the service ROM unbrick from this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10-lite/help/original-service-rom-huawei-p10-lite-t3688097 ?
Drain the battery, than hold volume down and connect the USB cable. You should use fastboot again.

Well, it helped. Thank you! Now I am able to enter fastboot mode, however it's nothing much of a help, because no matter what I do it just won't boot. I flashed everything once again. Now it's slightly better, since the Huawei boot animation is played, but then it restarts. Any idea? (yes, i did erase the user data and cache)

I checked my carriers site. It says that as of 16.05.2017 the last approved firmware for their Warsaw-L01A is WAS-LX1AC109B100.
Even if there was any newer version, that wouldn't change the case, would it? So I should be able to flash the WAS-LX1AC109B[anything] firmwares, right?

Stock Recovery

Hi to everyone, I have a doubt on what to do.
I installed a Custom Rom in my Huawei P10 Lite, but I want to go back to stock, and I know that before flashing the stock rom, I have to install the stock recovery and then use the dload method to revert to stock, my doubt is, which Stock recovery should I use?
Thanks in advance!

Dload or HwOta.
Dload will format all partition and lock your bootloader and u need sd card.
HwOta will just install stock rom and after it do not boot rom(you don't need sd card). You need to do factory reset from stock recovery.

I just downloaded a Service Rom from another XDA post for Huawei P10 Lite, copied all those files in a folder called "dload" and then, after turning off the device, used the "three buttons method" (you have to press volume up, volume down and power button to use the dload method) and it fully reverted to stock.
Just to warn you, I'm missing too much things and I don't know how to fix that, I'm just happy that my phone reverted to stock.
