Flash the 2nd data file given in OP. It should be fine. I too had same issue, its just blank screen if i get it right, exactly same as mine when i debrnaded from China to India
Hey man. I didn't know what to do and I unlocked the bootloader and it actually booted.

Anyways. Man your guides are hella detailed and we as noobs really appreciate your hard work. Thanks man for doing this for us. Successfully installed Oreo thanks to you.
Appreciate it.

Succesfully debranded my BLN-L21C432. Now installing Oreo using your other guide. Thank you so much for all this work!
A little suggestion: since this should be a noob-proof guide, I suggest you to explain that to make an oeminfo backup you need to be rooted.

Safetynet?

My goal here is to
A) get oreo
B) pass safetynet
If I unlock my bootloader but don't root, and install magisk when I'm done, I'll probably pass safetynet, right? So I guess my question is, when I use the other guide to unlock my bootloader, do I need to install supersu as well?

No man, SuperSU has been exceeded by Magisk. Go ahead and use directly Magisk

Hi, I followed the guide step by step, but I messed up something (problably in the new oeminfo file flash)because I can't debrand and now my build number is "NRD90M test keys". I come from BLN-L21C432B379 (the last official update, with september 2018 security patches). Is there any way I can solve this?

Try to reflash whole firmware again through HWOTA, because in case of debranding a double flashing of the packages is necessary in order to install system files correctly.

You mean to reflash my stock version (BLN L21) and retry to follow the guide or trying to flash the indian version trough hwota?

Edit: i was able to flash the BLN L22C675 version via hwota, now I can proceed with the Oreo installation

I tried to follow the guide but I've never managed to lock FRP , so (my bad) I continued and flashed the firmware . Now I have a BLN-L22C675B320 firmware / oeminfo :channel/in and a phone that doesn't start (stays at Honor logo) .
I even unlocked the bootloader again and factory reset . Any ideas what to do ? Thanks
