[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
Pdanet are ADB drivers...

To flash the phone with sp flash tool you need VCOM drivers

...... As said kitkat is still a dream on mtk based cpu.... No resource drivers available

I tell you, maybe with new 6595 cpu and the maybe possible lte /4g features, can be

Kitkat will be supported...... Hopefully....

Bro, if you flashed the file I gave to community (boot and system) it's not possible

to have briked the phone...

Try to remove the battery... Leave some minutes, put battery back and try again

BIOBIO76 Your files are ok.The problem is think i do something wrong when i flash the phone because i got an message error ABNORMAL...and after that the phone is dead.Repeat the files are ok.

I'm just trying to help you but if you don't tell me exactly what you have done Iddon't know and understand the real issue

The all list of file you mentioned are the 'general' files for flashing a mtk rom... But for the honoris a bit different.... FFor example there is the cust. Img you have not mentioned.... Honor rom structure is a bit different....

[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
I guess you were ment to say you upgrade firmware...?

Anyway, are the vcom drivers installed on your pc? Which operating system do you have?

What's happened when you 'flash upgrade'? Did you flash something? And if yes, what were you trying to flash? What did you load into scatter file?

g750

Now i got new driver and new flash from china site and the phone is vibrate.When i want to flash with sp flash tools i got a message like PMT changed for the rom...What i need to do?
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
Don't know what are you talking about man...

I said, what did you load with scatter file when you tried to flash the phone the first time?

Did you flash it successfully or not the first time?

I don't think your phone is briked.... You have to remove with usbviewer all the MT65XXXX and MTK preloader

Remove as well the devices wrongly assigned to the phone when you plug in it...

Reboot the pc, load scatter with files I gave, usemy sscatter file... And try to flash again

Use sp flash tool version I gave V5 some posts above #404...

Vcom drivers need to be installed again, use the manual package i gave in past posts
[Device Reviews and Information] eexeZ:
Try flash tool v3, I have a error with v5....
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
He can try both.... As soon as the flash goes throug...

As eexplained already, v3 is the old format... V5 the modern one

Important is that he use the version I gave

Also don't plug in the phone to any USB extender... Use motherboard USB directly and eventually change port... Try all port you have

Roms or recovery?

So, yea, I'm planning on getting this phone, but can any of the most experience members here share their experiences on flashing roms or custom recoveries on this model?

Have custom recoveries or custom Roms been made for this model?

any guides?
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
I deodexed the rom successfully already 1 month ago...

The way to deodex Huawei Honor 3X is quite complex and required DEODEXERANT injection with a inline command on baksmali

The problem is not deodex the rom... Is the correct decompilation and compilation of framework and related apks necessary to push

multilanguage..... I'm permanently working on it and I hope guys to make it soon or later.. Up to now there is no way to do that... (to do that on recent official rom I mean...)

No. Didn't use that tool to deodex the stock rom.

There are CWM recovery and TWRP recovery

There are custom rom but with bugs....

Suggest to keep stock rom, root it, remove Chinese stuff and enjoy the

[Device Reviews and Information] dancrow:
Could you please share with us the latest version of TWRP recovery?

Is there any newer version of CWM recovery, other than 5.5, generated by MTK Droid Tools?

Sorry for my english and thanks guys!!
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
Your issue was a bad flash the first time, so the phone was partially without basic files to start... But I was sure the device was not bricked

Happy to see you managed to flash correctly and it's back to updated life :)

Now install the CWM RECOVERY and root the phone with 1.94 script from CWM

Then remove the IMMUTABLE LIST file...

Then you will have honor in the best conditions to operate

NEW BABY - Huawei G750-T20

Hi All,

news are coming soon for all lovers of Huawei Honor 3X.

Seems Huawei is preparing the launch of the upgrade version of G750-T00, see below:

QUOTE

HUAWEI G750-T20 and glory G750- Too 3X as using MediaTek MT6592, 1.7GHz eight-core processor, 2GB RAM, also has a F2.2 aperture 13 megapixel main camera,

and 5 megapixel front camera, but the ROM expandable up to 16GB , and the screen resolution is also increased to 1920 x 1080.

The Huawei Honor 3X has been tested with updated 1920 x 1080 FHD panel on Antutu.

The Huawei Honor 3X is one of the highlights of the year with a powerful processor, great design and low price tag. The current model comes with a 5.5-inch 1280 x 720 resolution display,

more than enough for most users, but should be a pixel connoisseur and prefer the extra sharpness 1920 x 1080 affords take a look at the above screenshot.

Yes, it seems Huawei are testing an updated version of the Huawei Honor 3X “Huawei G750-T20” with a FHD 1080p panel boosting pixel density from 267ppi to a eyeball pleasing 401ppi.

Resolution isn’t the only change as we can also see that the internal memory has been doubled from 8GB to 16GB.

UNQUOTE

we will see.....

FYI, cheers
[Device Reviews and Information] olio99:
I think the memory boost is good.

However, one reason I went for this phone is the large battery life thanks to the "only" 720p display, which is more then enough. So I hope they won't lose too much battery life.

I'm sticking with mine anyway. With a 32GB uSD it fits my needs.

I think everyone on this forum would be a lot more interested in an international ROM!

---------- Post added at 08:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:45 AM ----------
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
Hi!

I think everybody here chosen this phone for your same reason....I'm completely agree with you in fact I left a full HD phone to Honor for great battery life and "only" normal HD

I use the honor for private and business with two sims running always on, so for me was really important have a full day autonomy and a phone that is running smoothly...so honor is exactly my goal....and huanwei is an already consolidated company active since years in the market, so support, upgrade etc are in fact present...

international rom, if you mean multilanguage it's still not possible unfortunately, or better, not possible on last updated firmware....

there are B118 and B122 old firmware with multilanguage .....guess was a testing of huawei not carried on unfortunately....but never say never, maybe in the next upgrade we will find with pleasure the full multilanguage.....

Hello guys,

i found an MIUI Rom and i'm testing it since one day without any big troubles. I will test it more and more, when it is good I will post the link for all of you. I don't want to make it now because I don't want you to brick you phone.

MIUI Rom

Hello, the tested MIUI Rom is good but not perfect. The first thing is that GPS isn't working well not even after a few gps fixes. The second point is that the second sim Slot doesnt have 3g. The rest is working fine. Didn't found any bugs, till now it is a stable Rom, no random reboots and so on.

Regards
[Device Reviews and Information] olio99:
What is the problem with the GPS? Loses position?

Shame about the 3G on second slot. Is that because xiaomi phones only have 3G on one slot?

Miui - ios7

Hi Guys,

to users that want to try the IOS7 or MIUI layout without loosing functions or worst, without have issues in restore the stock rom...

attached please find link to download those two themes...

IOS7_MIUIV5.zip ( Tot 47.8 MB )

https://mega.co.nz/#!lwRhCZjQ!DHXZF2qt4zeb-WFKhctxbWLnl5faJGwm16AScbs4hQE

exctract the zip and copy both files into

the root of your phone as follow:

\system\themes\ "Put both files here"

with RootExplorer ( or similar tool apk ) assign permission to these files as RW-R-R

open the apk themes of your honor and see IOS7 and MIUI :)

enjoy..cheers
[Device Reviews and Information] olio99:
Thanks. Still no way to root without installing cwm though...
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
what is your issue with CWM installation man?

root the phone with the script 1.94 is the best and safe thing at the moment, much much better of any framaroot, rootgenius and all this stuff...

and CWM recovery is mandatory to have to get nandroid backup, so somehow you have to install it....can be easily removed ( root and CWM ) when there is a OTA update.....complete the OTA update...and root/CWM again...

don't see the issue..?
[Device Reviews and Information] olio99:
Installing CWM, no problem. It's the update experience that has not been easy.

And I've been spoiled with Framaroot on other devices (on the Honor before upgrade).

I'll wait until the next update (at least) before I consider reinstalling CWM. I'm still unable to reinstall 2 apps (which I think root might solve), but I can wait.
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
still don't understand where is the issue, sorry my friend but not following you...

step to do ( do please )

remove any root you have

flash CWM recovery with SP FLASH TOOL

install 1.94 script via CWM recovery

then you get the status of rooting and CWM installed....

as soon as OTA update will be advised.....those are the step to be done:

1) open superuser and clic on PERMANENT UNROOT......

root is immediately gone in 2 seconds...

and superuser.apk unistalled as well

2) restore stock recovery as folow:

- with sp flash tool flashing the stock recovery

OR

- use the script I'm attaching here...run this from CWM recovery...and this will install directly the original stock recovery and removce CWM recovery...

reboot the phone.....do the OTA upgrade.....

root again and CWM again.....

easy.....

[Device Reviews and Information] olio99:
Biobio, I didn't realise there was a script to run.

My bad experience was last week, trying to use SPFT and thinking for a few moments I had bricked the phone.

I'd be quite happy to install CWM and leave it there if we could use it to flash the updates directly.

I just think it's a bit of a faff to have to uninstall / reinstall CWM for any update.

Please note I really appreciate your input and help, and all the work you're doing here. So I hope you're not taking anything I say as a criticism against you.

It is such a good phone (Great specs, good Huawei software / UI, very stable, great speed, and did I mention the battery life?!!??), but a couple of quirks away from being an absolute star (multilanguage / location, duplicate texts, and maybe a one click root / update ;) )

MIUI Rom

Hey, so GPS isn't working at all no function. (tested in china with asia GPS config)

About the 3g it does not work, not in the 1 slot and not in the second one (tested with a china unicom card).

These are the 2 bad points of the Rom, the rest is working well, even the camera (which has a lot of problems and bugs before) is working fine.

If anyone is interested for these Rom, just contact me, I don't want to put the link here, because at the moment it is just for testing, so no newbie should install it.

Cheers
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
Bro don't you worry, I'm here to help all users as much as I can, and glad to receive comments or opinion, positive or negative,

so no issue against anyone :)

I'm helping these days a couple of users who have issues as well with SPFT and I know how much can be pain in the ass, but unfortunately

everybody who bought a phone with MTK based CPU must learn how to use it and have it installed correctly...

I just think it's a bit of a faff to have to uninstall / reinstall CWM for any update: I know...but unfortunately I personally don't see other ways to do that at the moment...

OTA update is actually the best thing because the OTA update is maybe 30MB only and flashing only the updated "changes" to previous firmware, most of time a better camera, or a new music application and stuff like that...is not really changing the whole system/app so for users that install google gapps and setup the phone with personal data and configuration, this is not changing at all or concretely the global setup...

I'm agree with you when you say that a ONE CLICK ROOT would be the best, maybe as zopo cretes it into their new firmware....there is simply a function into the settings where you abilitate the root or disable the root, without install supersu or any other rooting app....for a nice brand like zopo was a logical compromise to all their users that are buing a chinese phone to root then the phone....but for a big and official brand like huawei is more difficult to have this, they are conservative and protect their phone....it's enough to see how much time i'm spending in trying to find the way to decompile/compile the system apps and finally bring the multilanguage for everybody....but the way huanwei released honor rom is basically a secret and no source available for anybody....

believe me, if you get practise with SPFT, you need 5 minutes to flash the CWM...and it's the easiest way to get it..

cheers
[Device Reviews and Information] alexw801:
Thanks for the continuous detailed information. I processed my Honor 3X in the days, later I post a short workflow for newbies to here, as I made. Instead of reading all. Russians (and Bruno Martins for ZTE V987) use "cap", to concentrate all the useful and necessary information.

What is the current factory ROM, I am on B129?
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
last STABLE VERSION is B129 ( you are updated )

last developer version is B608

both are really really similar so you can basically chose what you prefer most...for users that doesn't want to flash or "play" daily with their phone I think is better the B129....i'm on B608 of course :)
[Device Reviews and Information] AndyWhittaker:
Rooted and it works!

Oh wow! Thanks biobio76,

I lost my original root access when I upgraded to B129. Could I get root back again? no :(

However, flashing CWM from my first back-up,

downloading http://download.chainfire.eu/396/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.94.zip

copying it to the phone and after booting into recovery, using the install from zip file menu item got me root access back! :laugh:

Thank-you!
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
Hi Andy,

Correctly applied the process... Cool

Don't forget to remove immutable list file with terminal emulator, after have installed busybox....

With this you gonna have full control of the device..

Cheers man!
[Device Reviews and Information] alexw801:
Why is it necessary to install BusyBox?

---------- Post added at 11:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:48 PM ----------

1.	I made an OTA upgrade to B129 ROM. (The phone was new as I purchased on the same day).

2.	I installed MTK Droid Root & Tools v2.5.3 on my PC (Win7 32), #11, #43

ADB drivers also needed, I installed HiSuite on PC, but it often disturbed on working. #28

Run as administrator this MTK D.T., I connected via USB cable the phone (1st and USB debugging to mark on phone’s menu), I stored the basic data of it, then I saved a Scatter file of my phone.

3.	I copied SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1348.00 on PC in a folder. I copied my Scatter file there. I used the recovery file from #61, unpacked and renamed as “recovery.img” (5870 kB), VCOM drivers must be installed as #220, #345, #453, (I had already them on PC after 10 MTK smartphones processed earlier).

Run as administrator. Scatter file opened. Only “Recovery” to tick! Push “Download”. The battery I pulled out and returned to the phone. I connected the phone by USB cable. After some repeated case it went O.K.

4.	Copy UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.94.zip (#197) on SD card of the phone. Keep buttons “+” and “-“ and Power for long time (about 10 sec), it boots to Recovery mode. It shows: “rua1 CWM v5.5.0.4 for HUAWEI G750-T00”, it is the same as it was taken from #61. Then use “install zip from SD card”, UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.94.zip. The phone is rooted!

5.	Run as administrator MTK D.T., connect via USB cable, make a Backup. It is the most important activity!!! I tried Delete China option, almost no effect.

6.	Copy remove_immutablelist.zip (#132) and gapps-jb-20130812-signed.zip (you can take from www.needrom.com or others) to SD card. Enter into CWM Recovery and install first remove_immutablelist.zip, second time gapps…zip.

IT IS READY.

Remarks: not all Gapps are installed, the others you must download.

Tried my friend's simcard, and it didn't work either. So not my card's fault.

[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
yes...little job but you can even get fun doing it :)

and remove the immutable list file in the end...don't forget...

THEN: via CWM do a nandroidbackup...and keep it in case of future issue you can restore then to optimal configuration...

the best will be do the nandroidbackup prior to configure your gmail profile and data, so you have a very fresh and clean backup to use always...

Strangely enough, I saw on the huawei Vmall there is play store app!

So downloaded playstore, gmail, google+, google keyboard, and now I have nearly everything I wanted.

Nearly?? Yes, Nearly...

Sadly there is no sync of contacts between the phone and google account. That seems to be the only thing missing!!!! Arghhhhhh

Once you have playstore, everything is easy.

---------- Post added at 10:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:42 AM ----------

Good advice biobio. If I can't find how to sync contacts I will do that.

Otherwise do you know of any way (app ?) that would sync google contacts with phone contacts, and keep them in sync? I know it's a strange request as Android should do this by default.
