A few days back we shared the Lineage installation guide for HONOR 8X here. In this tutorial, we are going to guide you to Resurrection Remix Installation the famous custom ROM. This ROM should work with all variants of honor 8x. This ROM is based on Android 10 and needs EMUI9.0 to be installed on your phone. If your phone is already running GSI ROM you can dirty flash this ROM. Keep in mind that EMUI9.1 does not support custom ROM installation. So in order to install custom ROM your phone need to be rolled back to EMUI9.0. In our experience, Resurrection Remix has more modification options compared to Lineage OS. Some screenshots of this ROM are shared below.
