Once dload. Make sure you do factory reset. Press and hold volume up + power. Release it when you see huawei logo. Do Factory reset only then reboot. Wait for 3-5mins. It might take longer but not more than 15mins

Not for rollback but when you dload to EMUI 4.0 you need to do factory reset. All data will be gone.

After update to b563, my whatsapp not showing whos the sender on a lock screen. Anyone facing the same problem?

Try to uninstall whatsapp then reinstall if back. Make sure you backup it first. Go to whatsapp setting -> chat -> backup.

If is doesn't work. Try factory reset your phone. Just make sure you backup your data using huawei backup app before proceed.

Don't use huawei backup app to backup/restore whatsapp app because it will have alot of issue.

I m currently at b180 how to update to b521? I tried to dl it via firimware finder and send it to ota. But after that it stop at failed verification and reboot. Do I need to updates to b211 first? If yes which 1 should I choose? There are 4 diff type there. Thanks
*
Try update to B211 first then use FF to b521. Push the one with full ota means bigger size file.

When you update b211 . Did it finished 100%?

To factory reset. Press and hold volume up + power without plugin usb. Release it when you see huawei logo.

I have just unlocked my bootloader. I have tried to flash it using b211 and 193 but it both failed. Do you still have b180 with you? Or any 1 with b180 can share the file with me? Appreciation it very much.

with b193 and b211 and when rebooted, both also stay the same. cant factory reset and dload.

You must factory reset.

Press and hold volume up + power (without connect usb cable) . Release it when you see huawei logo.

P/S : make sure B193 or B211 successfully installed.

Phew finally I unbrick my mate8. Need to flash twrp then factory reset from there and install b180. First dload b180 failed then my phone restart again and dload180. This time it success I can use my phone normally now only 1 problem.... cant change theme anymore...
Thanks thankyou for the b180 firmware.

It's normal you can't change or even have themes after that. You need to root your phone then install the default themes. Just one time then the rest of themes(downloaded) will work.

Use this tools

If you upgrade to nougat then it won't have any issue on themes.
