Rooting Huawei P8 Marshmallow [EMUI4.0.1] Firmware b370 (GRA-L09&GRA-UL00)

Rooting Huawei P8 Marshmallow [EMUI4.0.1] Firmware b370 (GRA-L09&GRA-UL00)
3 selectable methods - systemless or with Root in the system

Conditions:
Unlocked Bootloader + TWRP: http://ift.tt/2arzheZ
Additional information for rooting the new Huawei Firmware b370 for P8 can be used from following Thread - how to unlock bootloader, how to flash TWRP -how to manually reboot to Recovery etc. http://ift.tt/2aryY3L
Yesterday I wrote a detailed guide for German Speakers: http://ift.tt/2aryYkr

First you have to know: It is not possible to flash the newest stable SuperSU 2.76 with the force systemless command! Dont try it, because this version of SuperSU will destroy the original boot.img of the firmware b370 - see 1. Screenshot. You come only after to the Rescue-Screen of the Bootloader....

That´s why I maked this Thread with 3 Rooting variants.

A) Rooting in systemless Mode (by maintaining the original Stock-Kernel)

Your TWRP should always have write permissions, if it ask you swype to confirm this! If it don`t have, you can enable this in the Mount button (disable system partition read only)

1.) Download the SuperSU 2.66 http://ift.tt/1OUudN5 and place it on the external SD
2.) Make a complete Nandroid Backup in TWRP
3.) After go to the Advanced button and use the Terminal.
On the first screen write the Force Systemless Command:
echo SYSTEMLESS=true>>/data/.supersu
an quit this with the ok tab
4.) Navigate back to the main menu and use the Install button
5.) Navigate to the location of the placed SuperSU 2.66
6.) Swype to confirm flash - after use: Reboot
7.) If TWRP ask you for Root - "Your device does not appear to be rooted - Install SuperSU now?" - NO - use: DO NOT INSTALL Button!
8.) P8 reboots now 2 times and reached finaly the system.
9.) Open the SuperSU App (it will be on an empty site of your home) - you have nowsystemless Root
10.) Open Playstore an Update the SuperSU and after say yes to Update the Binary.
11.) The Phone must be restarted and you are up-do-date with the Root.

B) Rooting in SYSTEM-Mode (by using an Custom-Kernel)

1.) Download latest stable SuperSU 2.76: http://ift.tt/2aryTNR
2.) Download CustomKernel.zip (from this Thread below)
3.) Place both zips on the external SD
4.) Reboot to TWRP Recovery
5.) Make a comlete Nandroid Backup
6.) Navigate back to the main menu
7.) Use: Install - and navigate to the place of the CustomKernel.zip
8.) Swype to confirm flashing the CustomKernel.zip
9.) Directly after this flash navigate back to the main menu
10.) Use: Install - navigate to SuperSU 2.76.zip
11.) Swype to confirm flashing SuperSU - after use: Reboot
12.) If TWRP ask you for Root - "Your device does not appear to be rooted - Install SuperSU now?" - NO - use: DO NOT INSTALL Button!
13.) P8 reboots one times and reached the system
14:) Open the SuperSU App (it will be on an empty site of your home) - you have now Root in the System

C) systemless Rooting (by using an Custom-Kernel)

1.) Download latest stable SuperSU 2.76: http://ift.tt/2aryTNR
2.) Download CustomKernel.zip (from this Thread below)
3.) Place both zips on the external SD
4.) Reboot to TWRP Recovery
5.) Make a comlete Nandroid Backup
6.) Navigate back to the main menu
7.) Use: Install - and navigate to the place of the CustomKernel.zip
8.) Swype to confirm flashing the CustomKernel.zip
9.) Directly after this flash navigate back to the main menu
10.) Use: Advanced and inside the Terminal
On the first screen write the Force Systemless Command:
echo SYSTEMLESS=true>>/data/.supersu
an quit this with the ok tab
11.) Navigate back to the main menu and use the Install button
12.) Navigate to SuperSU 2.76.zip
13.) Swype to confirm flashing SuperSU - after use: Reboot
14.) If TWRP ask you for Root - "Your device does not appear to be rooted - Install SuperSU now?" - NO - use: DO NOT INSTALL Button!
15.) P8 reboots two times and finally reached the system
16:) Open the SuperSU App (it will be on an empty site of your home) - you have now systemless Root with the latest stable SuperSU

Thanksgiving:
The CustomKernel is made by @Blackball - Much thanks to him for this very good kernel :good: The kernel has init.d and ADB Support and works very well. Much more better than the originial Stock one.
