No fuss debrick/restore your Mate 8!

Whatever you did to brick your device!
Whatever crazy thing you did to make this beauty a brick!
Next time, please don't waste time and money (dc-un...)
:crying:
First relax, take a deep breath in and smile. This method restored few phones and can be tried on every Huawei phone.
Second, hold volume-down+power and connect USB via PC. Means enter "bootloader"
Then pick up any old stock firmware of your region from this thread
Third unzip and rename folder to suit your model.
Fourth FASTBOOT.EXE FLASH ZIP UPDATE.APP and take a cup of tea or beer. Let all the error messages pass of.
Fifth, remove your ext_sd card and copy this extracted folder into root directory.
Sixth FASTBOOT.EXE REBOOT
It won't boot but will surely go to recovery, factory reset. Reboot.
Seventh, here is the main thing, hold volume-up+power till recovery shows updating
Eight, allow to update and get into the normal mode.
You will get your HUAWEI MATE 8 working in mint condition.
If this works, press the thanks button and rate this thread 5 stars.
All the best.

Another simplistic method if you are able to boot to your working rom.
2846579
Manufacturers port
Check your region
Then fastboot flash recovery recovery.img of existing 4.1 or 5.0 Rom.
Reboot.
Sdcard dload
2846579
Sdcard upgrade
And you are back to stock.
Do whatever you want to do, mate, but dont flash nougat rom this month!

Thanks. Will come in handy.
Think for yourself. Question authority.

This method also locks your bootloader without a trace of relock bootloader

Buddy, I had a tough time to roll back from nougat to my own firmware because of local power cuts affecting the process and I bricked.
I logged in DC account and even downloaded Phoenix software but thought let's try.
Aloha! I was successful
Had few gulf sets lying as bricks at my friend's shop and tried in those and they also booted up.

Does it mean I should download older firmware that the one I want to run after downgrade? For example, C432B170 if I want to finally have C432B180?

Yes, use this thread to de brand

Exactly! It doesn't flash but the bricked locked phone can be rebooted without issues.

Hi there! Thx for the instructions but unfortunately it's not working as intended.
After the Step FASTBOOT FLASH ZIP UPDATE.APP i get this output: see attachment.
Then the device reboots normally after FASTBOOT REBOOT
Does the bootloader need to be unlocked?
I really like to go back to Version B180 for my mate. As hassle free as possible.
Thx in advance
Daniel

You will get error but after that flash boot into recovery and wipe.
Dload folder in sd-card is a must

Thx for the quick reply.
I did all that, but the only options i get are:
- normal recovery with reboot, factory reset and wipe cache
- or eRecovery when still connected to USB with the option to connect to wifi and download the latest package, which fails.
Other than that it's just a normal factory reset and the B320 Firmware boots just fine and welcomes me with the first start wizard.
My device is not really bricked. I just want to downgrade, maybe that doesn't work this way.
Also after the FASTBOOT FLASH ZIP UPDATE.APP there is:
...
writing zip..
FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)<--- this makes me wondering somethings not right, is it? This should at least work?
finished. total time: 12.077s
Hope you can help there

Daniel, to downgrade, first you need to unlock and then follow all the steps as written here.

Ok, thought so. Hoped there was a way without unlocking!
Thank you for your time and your help. Much appreciated!
I will look into that.

Also try this
FASTBOOT.EXE FLASH ZIP UPDATE.ZIP
Click to expand...
Click to collapse

One more, didn't try though
FASTBOOT.EXE FLASH OEM UPDATE.APP

Do look here at times

Will try this after my Honor 8 gets charged.
It was bricked when updating from B162 (MM) to B320 (Nougat). Booting logo is the only one I could get, unless entering fastboot mode with holding vol- plus power keys when connected to a running computer. Three buttons (the above two plus vol+)results in bootloop as well.
Battery gets depleted unless charging when in fastboot & rescue mode. I'm going to charge it now (again).
BTW DC-Un... showed it was on B162.

You should unlock your bootloader and flash ROM via fastboot. That will upgrade your phone to 6.0. Would you like directions on how to do that?

For me, this ROM has reported problems. It could be the reason for the failed flash.
I do not think of being able to access the internal memory (with USB) to replace the ROM.
I thought that I can:
1) to performed hardreset (vol+-power, EMUI menu)
2) To put another rom on an external memory
3) Do unbrick again
What you think?
but I check now, Your rom is perfect.

Help. have anybody succeed downgrading from emui5 to 4.1?

i mean .. i tried everything
but.. still i stock on this ugly thing
can anybody help me?
im a NXT-DL00
kinda desperate

It's not as complicated as you might fear, stick with this and we'll get you back to 4.1
You have to be using EMUI 5's stock recovery for this to work, if you don't have it anymore use the Huawei update extractor to pull it and then install it via fastboot.
Then place the update.app file from the 4.1 firmware you want to roll back to into a folder called dload in your internal storage's root directory.
Turn your device off and hold VOL+, VOL- and power at the same time, it should enter dload mode and automatically start updating. when it is done you should be back to 4.1
You'll need to re-unlock your bootloader and reinstall TWRP for 4.1 but that should be it
any questions?

Ok, so you should already have it, unless you installed some form of TWRP since updating to EMUI 5.
If you don't have the stock recovery anymore:
extract the EMUI5 rom zip that you flashed to update to your desktop
download this tool on to your computer
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454
run it and hit the "..." button, this will open a new window, find the update.app file that you just extracted and select ok.
This will bring up a list of files one will be called recovery, right click it and click extract.
Then in fastboot mode:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
let it run and you should have the stock recovery back again

Bootloop after trying to downgrade to MM

Hello,
today I tried to downgrade from nougat to MM. After the MM Rom was installed, my phone only shows me the Huawei Brand. The phone does not start, it only shows huawei brand. How can I rescue my phone now ???? Please help
Edit:
If I press Power + VolDown it says PHONE Locked, FRP Unlock

Yes I Trier without USB cable plugged in. What I recognised before the bootloop is: The flash of the rollback Version was successful but the phone was then already stuck in bootloop. So i don't even could install the real Version of MM.
Is there a possibility to install the stock Rom with fastboot? My bootloader is opened and I don't Kind if I lose all my data.

You should be able to put the MM update in dload folder of your sdcard, and use the 3 button method to flash it.
Otherwise use huawei firmware extractor to pull the system.img data.img boot.img from the update.app of the MM, and use fastboot flash system SYSTEM.img . Same thing for boot and data

Before I do the steps you discribed I have two questions.
First: I have to recovery images... RECOVERY.img and RECOVERY2.img. Do I have to flash both of them?
Second: I took a SD Card now and created a folder named dload. In it I put the UPDATE.app file. This has 3 GB, in your post you said it has to be 2 GB. So did I take the right UPDATE file or is it the wrong one?

I now managed to flash BOOT.img, RECOVERY.img and SYSTEM.img. Afterwards it was possible to extract UPDATE.app by pressing VOL up # VOL down # and the other Button (don't know the english word). But the installation of the UPDATE.app stops on 5%. Whats the reason for this?

So I have a guess right now: Before I tried to downgrade my phone I uninstalled SuperSu but I didn't unroot my phone. So my phone could be still rooted. Could this be the problem why the installation is not working?

Huawei P8 Lite, no WiFi in recovery mode

I bought P8 lite (ALE-L21) and since I bought it, i could not connect to wifi.
When you go to WiFi, it says "Scanning" for a while, then stops. Not showing any network. The WiFi button is NOT gray.
I did factory reset - did not work.
But here is the strange thing:
I got in the Huawei eRecovery.
It offered to download the new version and recovery.
The phone tried connecting to wifi. Then it said Select WiFi, but did not show any access point (and it's sitting next to my router which is fine).
I took it to a service and the guy working there said that the hardware is fine. He was trying to fix it for a month playing with it and eventually I ran out of patience.
And finally, the question:
Can bootloader itself be replaced?
I have seen many threads regarding this, but none of them said anything about not being able to connect in recovery mode.
Thanks

Maybe you should try reflash rom by local update or unpack update.app file by huawei software extractor then extract cust.img and flash it.

already tried

I already tried updating from SD card.
I have found instructions here http://www.stechguide.com/update-huawei-p8-lite-to-marshmallow/
Sorry if I am not suppose to do that.
But the interesting part is that WiFi is not operating BEFORE the kernel (bootloader comes before kernel, right?).
I did not know that it was even possible to run WiFi before android starts! However, in Huawei eRecovery, it tries to activate WiFi (to get updates or something), but does the same thing.
So, not android, nor bootloader see any access point.

That's very weird i'm 75% sure that cust partition is messed up. (When cust partition is wiped for some people RIL is not working, my friend wiped it and both wifi and ril didn't work, so he flashed cust.img via fastboot and after reboot it worked)

Download firmware of your phone and use Huawei update extractor ( https://goo.gl/aSMU9M ) to extract cust.img.
Then flash it via fastboot.
P.s you need to unlock bootloader
