***Note:
I do not have this device (getting 1 maybe, if *Future Custom ROMs & curiosity of $158 S8), so my answers might NOT be reliable or worth a click ?
1. Yes, the developer's OP clearly mentioned "for bluboo S8)
2 Yes(99%). *English(UK), is usually default inclusive→
OR
The specific preferred language, u say? might be the needed gem for your question "multilanguage?", Because it seems like variants and of MTK has a difference.
For example, German(Austria) included in 1, may not be there in the other.
3 .I think The Dev's OP, already stated, precisely.
Usually, after you enable those options,
(...Enable via USB debugging OEM, ADB etc [√] found under *developer mode/option* on the device),
Go to your PC, → ^ADB folder, (where you have downloaded & installed the ADB.exe,) press shift+rightclick and choose "Open with Command Prompt"
And type the command as Developer mentioned above ( instructions -OP)
(Or available commands on ADB/fastboot recovery on Linux/windows).
I havent use this (Elephone S8 Ported mini), and as I said I do not have a bluboo S8 (yet).
Do let me know if substratum theme works on this.
however, developer's effort on # Clean AOSPA minus bloatwares, is Great work already. Totally worth a click on "?". For device like this it's even hard enough to get a honest user review.
I still can't make a decision between other s8-lookalikes available. HomtomS8,Leagoo S8, Umidigi, Ulephone considering ROMs support).

Point 11,12,13. MT6755_Android_scatter.txt perfectly installed with flash tool
But the phone boots only carlycwm

20.6 - Before reboot Wipe Cache and Wipe Dalvik Cache
20.7 - No for "Root access is missing. Root device?"

Hi,
you probably have skipped step 19.
Factory Reset inside of CWM recovery.

Updated the first post with TWRP version.

now my phone is dead, ican nothing do.
now when i insert cable with phone is started only cwm..phone not reboot

Flash TWRP in SP Flash Tool and follow TWRP instruction of first post.
- Turn off S8
- Press Download button in SP Flash Tool
- Connect cable
- If flash TWRP recovery doesn't start Hold the power button until progress start
Reason that only start in CWM.
- You upgraded firmware using another recovery that does't original one
- You used factory reset of system using another recovery that does't original one (probably this it's the cause, appear that you using TWRP https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74092694&postcount=21). Probably you followed my guide with TWRP. My guide only for people with original state, doesn't with modification.
You never can use factory reset of system with TWRP or CWM.

ok thanks, ill try this

it works not.Nothing.
The problem is when i plug the cable into pc or dc just boot only carlywm ported by ghost45.version 6_kk_carliv-mod.
before i flashed your ported rom with flash tool i had before twrp 3.1.1 Bluboo S8 on my phone..since everything had worked.
And now i can nothing do. it comes only cwm ghost45.version 6_kk_carliv-mod.
I`ll tried your rom
TWRP version:
- Download link: https://mega.nz/#!iRkxALgJ!kuIwBusd_...DrjN_8tJGMqOtk
with cwm ghost45.version 6_kk_carliv-mod to flash it installes it.
but when the phone first boot it comes allways cwm ghost45.version 6_kk_carliv-mod.
so i`ll tried anymethodes with flashool first press download than press power hold... down... nothing ..it comes jus cwm ghost45.version 6_kk_carliv-mod.

So follow all step below correctly, doesn't skip steps.
Download TWRP Recovery for CWM
https://mega.nz/#!md8AAZxR!5iepVFzSKGY0F-FlPLfCxSw3nH7r6-VgpBaemAlSclk
Install recovery twrp.zip of link above in CWM.
Reboot.
Now will reboot in TWRP
IN TWRP
- Wipe Dalvik / ART Cache
- Wipe System
- Wipe Cache
- Wipe Data
- Wipe Internal Storage
- Install Port ROM (First Post of this thread)
- Install recovery original.zip https://mega.nz/#!jMMRHbTI!eU-saTyapPon8xdfa2NORdpeV5CSGFfzdQHuqkwAcRE (this is very very important step)
- Wipe Cache & Dalvik
- Reboot (wait, doesn't restart until system start completly)
- Now original recovery will restored. If you need twrp, you need install again. And doesn't use factory reset of system, samething will happen again.

I already explained before. This isn't my fault. You used my guide (SP Flash Method) with TWRP.
If used factory reset with TWRP, of cource that will result in that.

I will be giving this a try tonight. Is there a way to keep the Blueboo startup animation or will this change that? Not that it matters much. Do all the features of the phone work with this rom?

Thanks a lot guys!
I successfully installed Linage OS 17.1 on my SM-A105FN.
Everything works, except face-unlock and nfc.
But that is fine and I can wait for a future update that might fix it.
Thanks for the tutorial!:laugh::good:

Might work but are you a little tech savvy? Because it's quite a long process and took me a day to complete.
Because of all the bootloops and reflashing and so on.

Could you pass me the ROM link?

Thank you for the port, awesome job!
In my opinion it needs some improvements, like in sound, we lost quality, and maximum volume in respect to stock one.
Also the notification bar gets a small black bar in the top, stock one was using all the edges.
And maybe a little hand in some animations that runs randomly not smooth.
Apart from that, i think its a really good and stable ROM.
Any ideas in how to safely root, and maybe add it Viper4Android or some audio lib?

[HONOR 6x EMUI 8.X Oreo] Installing EMUI 8.X on Honor 6X EMUI 5.X and RAM extend via SD Card

My problem is that I can't run correctly LineageOS on Honor 6x, and I didn't know how to run it properly, and I still don't know how to do it because I got bootloop, even if I factory reset...
=> For future people who still want to know how I switch Honor 6x on EMUI 5.X to EMUI 8.X, I write just below the full step and problems that I met during this process (But I think there is already some thread that talk about this.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Installing EMUI 8.X Oreo from scratch on a Honor 6x running with the EMUI 5.X Nougat
First of all, I have to thanks @Djiban that help me for the first step ✌
So, many Custom ROM/AOSP ROM for Honor 6x required an EMUI 8.X base.
And to update your Honor 6x to EMUI 8.X, you MUST DEBRAND your phone to BLN L22 India version of the OS
1/ Requirements (Search on Google for installation and how to use, or ask in this thread below)
Spoiler: 1/ Requirements
- You can choose between those 2 methods (Advise you to take the Huawei MultiTool):
Have ADB and Fastboot tools on Computer: ||__Minimal ADB__|| (also present with Android Studio, Unity3D with Android build support)
For Unity3D, if you had add the Android Build Support, the adb and fastboot tools should be here : C:\Program Files\Unity\Hub\Editor\20XX.X.X\Editor\Data\PlaybackEngines\AndroidPlayer\SDK\platform-tools (Replace 20XX.X.X with your version of Unity 3D)
You can ALSO use ||__Huawei MultiTool v8 __||, that get on more an interface(Great Noob Friendly tools).
I advise you to set the 2 tools inside the Windows 10 environment variable to easily use adb and fastboot command on command prompt. Type adb devices on the console tools of your computer, if it's correctly referenced you will see something like the screenshot:​
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
- Unlock the bootloader of your phone ! (you can use ||__DC unlocker__|| to get the bootloader code for 4€, or if someone know to get the number with a simple batch file code ? It would be awesome) (Huawei don't get you anymore the bootloader code, even with the paid service)
To make DC-UNLOCKER detect your phone :​
In your phone Settings -> About Phone -> Press 7 times the Build Number => To unlock Developpers Options; then go to Settings -> Developpers Options => Enable USB debugging
Install HiSuite from Huawei to get all the drivers needed to detect your Huawei/Honor phone on your computer
You have to type in dial pad(the default phone app) *#*#2846579#*#* then go to ProjectMenu -> Background Settings -> USB Ports Settings -> [U]Manufacture Mode[/U]. You have to redo this if you disconnected your phone, because it will set by default the HiSuite Port !
Once you get the code :​
In your phone Settings -> Developpers Options => Enable Unlocking OEM
Connect your phone to your computer and allow the debugging mode, and choose MTP mode(transfert files, not charging only)
With Huawei Multi-Tool, press Quick Actions(top right of the UI) -> Reboot to Fastboot mode (OS-FB) OR
Open the console (search cmd on windows), and type adb reboot bootloader
Open the console (search cmd on windows), and type fasboot oem unlock YOURCODE
If all good, type in the cmd : fastboot reboot
- MUST install TWRP Recovery 3.1.1 (Other versions will not work for EMUI 5.X Android Nougat) :
Use Huawei MultiTool : In Recovery Tab, it will normally propose you the EMUI5 twrp image or the 3.1.x version. Press Flash Recovery_ramdisk (require you to enable/allow USB debugging on your phone)
You can also choose an image from your download (see link below for twrp 3.1.1)
Or with the cmd
Boot into fastboot : adb reboot bootloader
Install TWRP : fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1-0-berlin.img
||__All TWRP version for Honor 6x[berlin]__||
||__twrp-3.1.1-0-berlin.img__||
- Advise you also to make a backup with HiSuite to save your data, and a TWRP backup to recover your system in case.
- To reboot into TWRP Recovery mode, press Volume + and Power buttons. Or use Huawei MultiTool v8 Quick Actions or type into the cmd : adb reboot recovery
2/ Debrand to BLN-L22
Spoiler: 2/ Debrand to BLN-L22
- See if you already got the BLN-L22 or not : Honor6x -> Settings -> About phone -> Build number
If yes, you can skip this step
View attachment 5233545
- Here is the tutorial made by @shashank1320 to debrand to BLN-L22 (work for BLN and BLL models as I know): ||__LINK__||
(Careful, the 3 links on the firmware finder database may take 1-3 hours to download, they didn't get a good server speed, same as the step 3) And you may need to flash OEMInfo.zip via TWRP !
- Here is some issues that I encounterd and solved, the Huawei MultiTool ZIP is there also : ||__LINK__||

OKKK after one all day (9:30AM to 10:30PM) I finally get it !!!!!!! THANK YOU for your advice you saved my phone if I can say Djiban A look of my new version phone below, very happy !!! Now I have to find how to get Emui 8.X on my Honor 6.X without broken my phone
I really thought that my phone was broken because I didn't backup my OEM info with the Huawei MultiTool and ended into a bootanimation loop even restoring my phone with TWRP.
______________________________________________________________________________________
For those who is doing this awesome tutorial : https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ln-l22-successful-case-noob-friendly.3679402/ I attach here to my message the Huawei MultiTool v7 that I found on this forum too (but can't find the link in my browser history ) :
For this tool, don't connect to internet when you launch it to avoid auto update, you can enable it after the question about proxy or when you see the main menu. The only bad thing that it's not in english, but the screenshot in the tutorial show you what is what
For the OEM info zip, if you get "sbin/su not found" when restauring int the MultiTool , try also to install it with the traditional way in TWRP via the button Install -> Install ZIP
At the step where you have done the dload method with the update.zip, you will be get stuck in the bootanimation or black screen, it says that you have to shutdown the phone and that's a bit complicated with Honor 6x, you can only reboot whatever you done and adb acess from computer is off (don't activate the bootloader, it can reject the new update you just put in the dload folder !!!)
What I have done is going to Huawei eRecovery mode by pressing and maintaining Power button and Volume +, then choose wipe cache then wipe data/factory reset (it will erase all your data that you have on your last system !). By that, the phone will reboot and get you into the EMUI 5.X and the menu too set your phone, and by that you can rename the folder dload-data to dload through computer as mentionned in the tutorial, then SHUTDOWN your phone and redo the dload activation (Volume + and - and power button pressing)
And that's it ! Some tips to avoid future people stuck for hours and panic because nothing is working and the phone seems to be good for bin

Click to collapse
WARNING : Once you update the OEM info of your phone, the Huawei eRecovery won't find update to factory reset the entire firmware ! So if the Huawei eRecovery tell you that the system is broken and you have to reset your phone (can't avoid that if it tells you that I think), after that the bootloader will be locked, then you can't go to TWRP recovery or start the OS.
DON'T PANIC, go into fasboot/bootloader by shutting down your phone(if can't, just reboot and do the following steps before the phone vibrates when reboot !) : Hold AND Keep VOLUME - , then plug the USB cable
Then on your computer, unlock the bootloader as you already done with the command : fastboot oem unlock THEBOOTLOADERCODE (The bootloader code will be the same whatever your firmware version is, it's unique for your phone harware)
3/ Update to EMUI 8.X BLN-L22HNC675 [Android 8.0]
Spoiler: 3/ Update to EMUI 8.X BLN-L22HNC675 [Android 8.0]

- Some UPDATE Links about this tutorial:
The HwOTA8 tools : ||__LINK__||
Make sure to keep HWOTA8_BLN folder inside HWOTA_BLN_Eng folder
HWOTA_BLN_Eng should be put inside the Tools folder of Huawei Multi-Tool v8
Make sure the path don't contain SPACE such as C:/Program Files
They are new update of the BLN-L22HNC675 (B520)
The newest one is : BLN-L22HNC675CUSTC675D2B520 (8.0.0.520) update on 2018.11.29
Search BLN-L22HNC675CUSTC675D here
You can upload the 3 zip on my pCloud (it's faster): ||__LINK__||
WARNING : On the first boot, wait 3-4 mins. The reboot to the EMUI 8.X can take some times
If after some minutes, nothing happen and you still on the blue Honor bootloop, try to wipe cache AND factory reset the phone via Huawei eRecovery or via TWRP (don't format data, only at the last resort but I think you have to reinstall the firware through HwOTA8 again). Have to be patient, it takes me 6-8 mins to reboot after wiping cache and data at the 2nd attempt.
- After successfully installed EMUI 8.X :
It's possible that you can't access TWRP, you have to reinstall TWRP Recovery through Huawei Multi-Tool (same step at the step 1/ Requirementsabove).
The tool will automaticcaly detect your device and propose you the BLN_TWRP_EMUI8.zip (press Flash Recovery_ramdisk with your phone open in android and allow the debugging connection - see 1/ Requirements for more informations.
Or you can download TWRP 3.2.X-0 (version 3.2.X only ! Other versions may not work, I didn't try it)
With this version, you will encounter some issue with TWRP. You can't wipe chache, or mount/unmount data for example, so some installtion through TWRP may not work, like for OpenGAPPS who maybe can't be installed when you want to try other Custom ROM like LineageOS. If you know how to install OpenKirin(LineageOS) on Honor 6x EMUI 8.X, feel free to share in this thread !
4/ Extend your RAM via SD Card
Spoiler: 4/ Extend your RAM via SD Card
If you succeed all those steps, you may right now see that your device maybe a little buggy, particularly when you open severals android application.
- For me, I used AParted available on the Play Store : ||__LINK__||
- This app require a rooted phone of course : Install Magisk ||__LINK__|| through TWRP Installation (Reboot to TWRP -> Install -> Install ZIP) or use SuperSU propose by Huawei MultiTool button installation
A PDF/Tutorial are available on the app inside, showing you the step to do with screenshot
WARNING : Save your data of your SD card before continue
You may not see big difference by increasing the RAM memory, it will just allow you to open more apps at the same times without crashing or lag
Summary of steps :
Tab CREATE -> press ADD 2 times (or more if you already have some partitions)
Set Part 1 as fat32 and give him his total storage
Set Part 2 as swap and give him his storage (will be for the RAM) (For me, I choose 2Go)
Click APPLY
Go to Tab TOOLS
Select Part 2 - FS: swap
Choose Swap in the drop down menu next to the button Apply
Press Apply
Watch a video (advertising if yo uconnected to internet)
Cancel the installation of AMemoryBoost
Click ON and OK to enable Swap Partition
Now you will saw the current RAM and the Swap memory
I wish my post can be helpful and I wish you can enjoy your new phone !!!
I can't wait to see new thread about an AOSP 11 on the honor 11 !

let us know which ROM you did try to install, and how you did solve. thx

thanks for this excellent and very complete guide. Hop too that @DarkJoker360 AOSP 11 system.img from Huawei P8 Lite forum will work as it did for march and July AOSP 10!!! I'll give i a try next week for sure :

After a succesfull debrand to BLN-L22 with the very fast way, I'm following your guide to step to EMUI 8, first of all thanks for providing files from your pcloud !!

You did use multi tool V8 to update to EMUI 8 ? Can see any signe of that in the guide you did follow . I guess it just replace the adb fastboot command .
All went fine for me, I'm now on very last EMUI 8 stock ROM for BLN-L22! thx
But of course TWRP flash is now an issue:
all TWRP recovery versions I fastbooted flash (3.1.1, 3.2.3, 3.5.0, all for bacon) sent me the same message error in fastboot: "FAILED (remote: partition lentgh get error)" . Apparently not EMUI 8 version .....

Oh nice wonderful !!! Happy it helps
I used the Multi Tools for the 3 step because it contains the adb and fastboot tools. But if you have it with the minimal adb software it will work also.
And if you set the adb folder to the windows 10 variable path system, I think you can put the HwOTA almost anywhere in the computer disk.
Yep indeed the twrp not work properly...
And still all my attempt to upgrade my OS with another method without the 3 zip (update, public, data) is not working

There is a workaround for custom recovery, I'll try it seriously and post back here

[Development and Testing][COMPLETE] Android 11 on Huawei Honor 6x.

UPDATE : An Android 11 ROM (Fluid OS) has been successfully tested and a new thread was opened. Feel free to use this thread in future if you're working on a different android 11 ROM.
This thread is dedicated for the development and discussions on different android 11 ROMs and GSI's that work on our device.​Already tested ones : (need fixes and any help is appreciated)
> @phhusson 's android 11 builds (treble experimentations, v308)​Issues : ​Works fine on first boot but reboot/subsequent boots are causing bootloops. only fix found is that it is requiring a factory reset with stock recovery on every boot.​Procedure followed : ​
Boot to recovery from stock emui 8 / any custom one that was installed on emui 8.​
Factory reset with twrp by typing "yes".​
push system image with adb to device after extracting it with 7zip from .xz file.​
Flash system image.​
Flash stock recovery.​
Boot to stock recovery and perform factory reset and wipe cache (in a random order, many times for satisfaction ).​
Choose reboot and wait.​
Fixes tried :​> Booting fix from @Hami_Do from this thread. This didn't fix the issue but as a side effect, the device stopped booting.​ Conclusion : This is not the right patch for the issue that was encountered.​​> Waiting for others to try out different ROMs/GSI's and inform(post in this thread).​Builds that can be tried :​# @DarkJoker360 's builds.​# Other GSI's​# Other ones that you know which might work.​​*This thread will be updated with every fix that worked, procedures, ROMs/GSI's and patches used whether worked or not so that development will be easy.
Thanks to @Djiban for the idea of starting a development thread for accelerating the development.
***Please try out every rom you could (if your willing to) and use different patches and post your observations in this thread so that the development will be active.***
Feel free to give out your suggestions about different patches that can be tried.​

RESERVED.​

The best but time-taking way : Compiling rom directly from the android source, device trees etc.
If anyone has required hardware and time, try it if you are willing to.

Hello. As some users of the Honor 6x managed to install @DarkJoker360 AOSP 10 for P8lite, until july 2020 version (later release didn't boot). I tried to compil every succesfull tricky install process of this rom on another devices than the P8 lite. And as @DarkJoker360 released an AOSP 11 for P8 Lite, maybe this compilation of install steps could make it work on our Honor 6x. Below are the conclusion of my reseach, surely some steps are not mandatory:
- Upgrade to EMUI (Warning for last stock firmware version, for P8 light for example: I recommend .360 firmware or .400. Newer firmwares with newer security patches may refure to boot due to some Huawei changes for avoiding modding)
- Remove the saved fingerprints and Google Accounts just in case
- Download the TWRP recovery from pretoriano80 (https://mega.nz/#!LLhBXSzY!3runNNoW9z1tOHSu-heIUhyy-4u8XHvc8rZMsn547so ou https://eu.dl.twrp.me/prague/)
[Sinon from @Dil3mm4 (https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8...lopment/unofficial-twrp-3-2-1-0-oreo-t3773970) or use this recovery https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MnFBplsp3nZ3b0BiJ764cV67kHXeRzL4/view ou https://sourceforge.net/projects/hi...WRP/twrp-3.4.0.0-v1-hi6250-emui8.img/download]
- fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery.img
- TWRP-flash fstab.hi6250b.zip (https://sourceforge.net/projects/darkjoker360-developements/files/Huawei/fstab.hi6250b.zip/download)
- Wipe and Format Data>yes then reboot. You should reboot into ugly looking stock rom.
- In settings>security>more you should see Encrypt phone that means storage is decrypted.
- Enable debug and confirm via adb and boot into TWRP
- go to TWRP -> Wipe -> Advanced Wipe, and do a full wipe (system, data, cache, dalvik/art cache), Don’t Format Data again because most probably you'll lose Internal Storage
- extract img from AOSP 11 main file
- TWRP-Flash system.img : TWRP -> Install -> Install Image (OR reboot to bootloader and "fastboot flash system drag and drop <drag system.img here>")
- Resize the system partition: press "Wipe" Then choose "Advanced Wipe". After that select/check "System" box and then press on "Repair or Change File System" and then you will see down "Resize File System", press on it and done ur System has been resized. (DO NOT FORMAT!), u need to resize the system partition, until see the used space ~17xxmb and free ~18xx mb
- Install NikGapps core with SetupWizard add-on
- Install NFC_fix.zip
[ NON !!! - MUST flash Magisk Phh 19.3]
- (Required) Install prague patch
- After installing all things you will need to install stock recovery and wipe cache and try to do factory reset(i tried to but i got error massage)
- after flashing the patch go back to stock oreo recovery which is available on the emui 8 folder you downloaded earlier (huawei update extractor ?)
- do factory reset and wipe cache, after that load to bootloader again
- finally flash huaweitwrp.img https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-iErvJefoFri7HKNEU8uSnYo8kmIyVd9/view
- reboot into that twrp
- chooose advances; fix encryption
- Reboot and wait, then you can access internal memory
- After first boot, you need to, format data in erecovery

Unfortunatly, I have no time at the moment for Honor 6x, but if some of you want to comment/try/discuss about these steps...

The problem I faced was also mentioned in developers.android.com (power cycle one).
Is there any fix for this?

@Djiban
I need your help to test out the same process I've done in post #1 for AOSP 11 but this time along with flashing fstab.hi6250.zip. @Hami_Do suggested this. But I'm not having a spare device to test it out. Please do it when you have some free time.

1) when in the process should I flash fstab.hi6250.zip according to you ?
2)you wrote:
Boot to recovery from stock emui 8 / any custom one that was installed on emui 8.
Factory reset with twrp by typing "yes".
the factory reset can be done with either stoc or TWRP recovery, there is a contradiction here.
3) do you use this .xz file: system-roar-arm64-ab-vanilla.img.xz
4) witch stock recovery to flash and where to find it? ( in the xz file ?)
I'll check your complete guide to install AOSP 10 to be sure!

I don't actually know about that. Maybe before installing the system image and if the rom again bootloops after rebooting, flashing it again..?

see my last post, I did edit with more questions when you did this answer.
for darkjoker's rom fstab.hi6250b.zip is flashed just after flashing the very first TWRP recovery (see post #4) , I'll give it a try like that.
I'm waiting for your answers 2 3 4 from my last post

2) I meant to boot to TWRP from stock emui 8 rom or AOSP 10 which I've posted a guide on or any other builds.
It in more simpler terms means to boot to TWRP from any of the roms you are currently using.
3) I used the a-only one not ab. Honor 6x supports a-only versions and not ab. ab is for devices launched with Android 9 or later.
4)I attached the stock recovery in the AOSP 10 post #1. It is the stock recovery which we will find in EMUI 8 update.zip file.
Additional : you can use 7zip to extract xz file.
Did I make myself clear?

2) do you think a factory reset in the stock recovery (if TWRP recovery is not installed) will not work as well? I think so.
In fact to flash fstab.hi6250b.zip, you havce to have TWRP recovery. This means that this rom cannot be install to a full stock EMUI, yiou have to install TWRP recovery first
3) ok
4) ok, sorry
i,ll give a try today I hope
5) do you also recommend those steps at the begining as for AOSP 10:
Format the data partition {Wipe > Format data > type "yes"}
In TWRP, choose wipe > advanced wipe > select system, data, cache and DALVIK and format them.
6) Can,'t we flash img and recovery though adb, or only in TWRP recovery {Install > Install Image > Select > Choose system image > Swipe➡} {Install > Install Image > Select > Choose recovery image > Swipe➡}
6) no open gapps for android 11!! should we stay vanilla, or do you think there will be a simple package to flash afterwards, when vanilla will be running ?

2) yeah, except the recovery I think every other partition being stock is better.
5) yes
6) you can directly try the gapps arm64 a only version here and OpenGapps android 11 is under testing and is also available at sourceforge. But better try the gapps IMG itself.

I did, not easy to find anything yet !

OK, Did try install to install phh AOSP 11 with the full process below ,from a clean EMUI 8 . Result : device is in bootloop.
What Should I change? From where to restart (do I have to go back to EMUI 8 , or I can restart the below process with change, from there ?)
Note that stock recovery factory reset (even low level factory reset, that occured after several bootloops) did not work at all, stoped after couple of second.
- Connect your usb debugging enabled Honor 6X (with EMUI 8 or custom rom installed over EMUI8) to a PC with adb & fastboot
- in the Adb directory of the PC, download:

- in fastboot, "fastboot reboot"
- after reboot completed, "adb reboot recovery"
- in adb, "adb push -p fstab.hi6250b.zip /sdcard/"
- in TWRP recovery, flash fstab.hi6250b.zip
- in TWRP recovery, Format the data partition {Wipe > Format data > type "yes"}
- in TWRP recovery, wipe > advanced wipe > select system, data, cache and DALVIK and format them.
- in TWRP recovery, factory reset

- in Stock recovery, wipe cache and factory reset (even if error)
- in Stock recovery, reboot and wait.

maybe those steps were mistakes:
- in TWRP recovery, factory reset (even if it's early in the process)
- reinstall of fstab.hi6250.zip at the end of the process

- in TWRP recovery, factory reset (even if it's early in the process)
reinstall of fstab.hi6250.zip at the end of the process

What happened after you did this? Is it still bootlooping?

I have to access bootloader mode and reinstall TWRP again, give it a try tonight

Ok tried ton install AOSP 11 without any fstab.hi6250b.zip flashing. Still bootloop! It seems my device is lacking an EMUI8 part, and not yours!
note that each time:
- when I'm final rebooting in recovery from TWRP, it says "no OS installed, sure you wish to reboot?"
- stock recovery factory reset stops at 7%
@Venkata Lochan Nune do you have this 2 errors too ?

Found my error, I was flashing the ARM and not the ARM64 system .img !!!!
First boot in AOSP 11 succeded.
I even tried the gapps img, but google setup wizard loops.
As I did flash fstab.hi6250.zip just after TWRP recovery in this last install, I' did checked if AOSP 11 survives the second boot:
gapps img did
vanilla img did
I think you can either change the status of this thread, or open a new one. Wa have an usable android 11 for Honor 6X. The exact process I did follw is quoted at the end of this post.
Still to do:
- test and bug search (let me know what should I try)
- find a nanogapps package to install
-find out how to proceed for system updates
thx for all @Venkata Lochan Nune
Process used to install:
- Connect your usb debugging enabled Honor 6X (with EMUI 8 or custom rom installed over EMUI8) to a PC with adb & fastboot
- in the Adb directory of the PC, download:

Thanks. Will test this.
I'm in the process of wiping through TWRP. It says
"Failed to mound '/metadata' (Invalid argument)
I've already converted the format partition from FAT to EXT4, and wiped the selected items but I'm stuck with the error above. Idk if this won't make me able to proceed to flashing the gsi

nice. Wish there were clear instructions on how to flash this phone, though.

Hey, so I really want to root my A22, but I would want some more info. I would like more info on how to flash the A12 GSI, like what about vendor etc, I mean I know stuff about roms but no stuff about GSI'S whatsoever, so like is vendor needed etc? And also can you give me a more detailed tutorial on how to flash it? I'd love Android 12 on this phone.

Yepp... perfectly works. No issues, efs just might break sometimes like it already did to me and you have to flash stock if you didn't back up efs

Hi there, I'm a noob regarding to this, but I was able to follow this guide successfully for my A225m.
But I'd like to understand what's going on here, can you give an explanation about each step and what does it do?
Also, can the vbmeta flashing be done _without_ Odin? For example using only fastboot (which works on Linux unlike Odin).

Thank you for following your tutorial, successfully rooting, and flashing the system

There are three problems with crdroid, the dual card manager cannot work quickly, the hotspot cannot be used, and the system cannot mount the phone storage
