You will get error message if you don’t have an SDcard or don’t have a dload directory in the root of the SDcard or don’t have enough battery charge.

If things are ok, then the Honor 7x will boot into download mode and install the stock oreo firmware kept in the SDCard root directory’s dload folder.

If you have a valid stock firmware image for Honor 7x on the dload directory then the EMUI download mode will start updating that firmware.
Hold back till the stock firmware is installed.
