Hello Experts,
I have a Huawei Honor Note 8 which came from China originally with EMUI 4 and Android 5 (or 6?). I however managed to upgrade it to EMUI 5 and Android 7.
After upgrade the build changed to EDI-AL10C233B359 which is different from factory build when I purchased it.
When I heard about Android 8 Oreo, I decided to upgrade my phone again.
It's been a while now that I've been trying to update to Android 8 Oreo reading different guides. So far was only able to unlock bootloader.
Last attempt ended up to have to factory reset my phone but now my phone get stock in blue screen with Honor logo. I've both tried factory reset and recovery but none worked and again after completion of each i get stock in blue screen.
I appreciate any help with:
- how to fix it to get it up and running
- how I can update to Oreo?
Cheers,
Ray

Hi @letschky
I have a similar question.
My honor note 8 is having the firmware EDI-AL10C233B359 ( my phone is rooted )
I didn't get the OTA to android Oreo or won't update in erecovery either.
From what I understand we have to change it AL10C00B359 to actually update to B528
Can you give the detailed steps to change from EDI-AL10C233B359 to EDI-AL10C00B359 ?
Can we change the region by flashing oeminfo and custombin for EDI-ALC00B359 in TWRP?
Can you share the oeminfo and custombin for EDI-ALC00B359?
Thanks,
Sam

You can talk with Grarak on Twitter and ask him how to solve this issue and if it's possible to go back on marshmallow from emui5
already done so, zero response
Asked huawei for rollback link
Same problem here, so I emailed huawei for a rollback link. I'm on NRD90M so normally should be able to revert to original MM... No response so far...

And how can we go back to mm, is there a tool to do it? I have tried to flash mm but I'm not able because system and cust partition are bigger on stock mm firmwares, so once installed nougat we are not able to go back on mm. Basically they have to release a tool witch will automatically repartition system and cut partitions or release a mm firmware with smaller partitions....Oh sorry they didn't respond, I'm curious about they're response, if they will ever replay to you e-mail.

Well, thats whats the NRD90M build is made for, so you would be able to return to MM Its a build that should give the opportunity to have a rollback... However, what I have learned is that you need a specific updatefile to do this... This updatefile, does not exist (?)

thanks for help.... but......
R.I.P.
Amen
this procedure doesnt work for me,
im tryed many time but always error, and dont have the oreo installed, then i change the oem info by elite twrp, and now my p8 completely bricked, not enter in fastboot mode, not enter in recovery mod, not in system only in erecovery but procedure via wifi dont start, "package error", via folder dload/update.app not work.....
any suggestion for unbrick?
thanks so much
all this just because I wanted to put a version of the emui no brand, before I had emui 5.x, brand h3g ....
SOLVED, changed oem info eu
My phone had to be repaired last week, and the Huawei repair service changed everything in the phone except for the backplate.
However, I am now stuck with emui 4.1.2 in firmware VNS-L31 C432 B226, and i can't find a replacement firmware for the system.
The phone shows no update available in stock.
I have TWRP and magisk installed atm, just so i could try and get a different firmware with emui 5.1 or 5.0 at least, which I did to no avail.
Is there any way to find the correct firmware compatible with this phone?
Googling this firmware gives me no clues as to the correct path to updating this phone.
Should i use an adb/fastboot command prompt to update it, or use the dload method, or even the extract the SYSTEM.img from UPDATE.app method?
I just don't want to revert to an "earlier" version of the firmware with the dload method just to have my phone bricked.
These are the firmware i tried already:
[TO BE UPDATED]
TL/DR:
I have a Huawei P9 Lite repaired to a stock:
Firmware: VNS-L31 C432 B226
EMUI: 4.1.2
in Portugal.
I want to know a compatible firmware or series of firmware patches so i can get
Firmware: VNS-L31 C432 Bxxx
EMUI: 5.xx
Thank you for your time.
Hello,
it's strange that with an unbranded european firmware your phone didn't upgraded to android 7....
Anyhow i never done a forced upgrade but if i were you i wil try with HWOTA update, like explained in this thread.
So first make all your necessary backups, then unroot and finally follow the guide to upgrade.
P.S.: If your phone is dual sim try install B370, if single sim try with B371.
All the best

I tried a bunch of firmwares for emui 5.1 that didn't work, or which had NFC and bluetooth not working. I ended up downgrading to B160, and am now reupgrading to B370 after checking that both of the previously mentioned are working properly. I will update on this issue asap.
Also, it seems like the firmware I originally had was updated in march 2018, so it was really an updated official firmware with emui 4.1. What a weird setup. Could it be to make sure the NFC and bluetooth would be working? I just don't know...

I did it and it worked, however i flashed the recovery partition of version VNS-L31C432B380 with TWRP and now can't do a OTA update to B388.
Should I extract the recovery img from a b380 FULLOTA update and flash it to my recovery partition with fastboot?

Hey,
surely without stock recovery OTA updates won't work,
so yes try flash it with fastboot, then update to the latest/wanted firmware and finally unlock bootloader,
flash custom recovery and root (even if wanted).

Okay sounds cool I'll rebrand the question remained is what brand has the latest update?(Please provide a link to .zip update) and the last question is,if I rebrand before I install oreo what exactly happens I turn on my phone and it has a frimware from Africa but its brand is now China!Will that be able to turn on?Or I should use TWRP to install Chinese firmware from SD card.
Since I'm an android developer I need to have multiple os if possible.Has anyone tried this Or any better one?Can I use it in this case?

I have the firmware finder it found no FULL OTA from marshmelo the first full ota is for nougat.
http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/...2227/f2/full/hw/eu/update_data_full_hw_eu.zip
The links from hicloud says that the files have been deleted.
I don't have a reliable internet connection I rather download zip files then update because I don't want in the middle of the operation things go wrong that's why I didn't try HiSuite.Any live link would be appreciated.
I found NXT-L29BC185B200 live link right now.It's android 6.0.1 I'll go for it tnx.

I download B200 tried to install via dload failed said (incompatiblity with current version ) tried with twrp failed.And I wiped my OS and tried again and failed.And lost my OS.Sort of now it shows me android logo instead of huawie logo and it's stuck on the initial setup of nougat.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/general/guide-how-to-downgrade-mate-8-emui-5-to-t3515202
I found this and it says the nougat version must be b500 but mine was b560 and tried to install the rollback and it failed again.I don't know what to do?I need my phone.
Couldn't find any download link of b500 did you do that on your b500 or b560?
If b500 please give me a link of NXT-L29C185B500
Tried again and it didn't give me error this time the point is that it doesn't run on B500 it makes your device B500!
After installing marshmellow the bootloader is locked again!
