Thank you for any help

just finished to flash from ZERO....

confirmed, issue fixed, now I see people calling me :)

soon will post a guide how to completely do it + necessary gapps :)

yessssssssss!!!
[Device Reviews and Information] Pelrauns:
That's great! Please tell us if Google Maps is working now for you. My experience with my semi-clean 4.4 installation is that endures a little longer but then force-closes too.

I will be waiting for your instructions and files!

Ciao!

I just realize that Huawei DLNA was delete in this release :(
[Device Reviews and Information] Pelrauns:
[emoji30] Too bad! That one was working fine. I think emui 2.3 is not mature enough yet. Perhaps when we see the first 4.4 stable rom if that ever happens.

Would be great if you could "cook" a "ready to flash " CWM ROM, with buildin gapps, root, immutable list, and all customization need it

if i bought g750 t00 will the 3G works in egypt ?

i am afraid of this ???
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
Hi dear

You know, I always thought to prepare something like that for the community, but I never did it due to many 4.2.2 firmware upgrade, and I was waiting Huawei to slowly fix the bugs through the firmware upgrade release...

Now there is the kitkat, completely different O. S., so making a CWM ROM is something I can do of course.... But the best for every user will be

flash completely the ROM (formatting everything) and install from zero as I did....

I'm thinking still... Maybe will provide both... Or maybe will provide a ready nandroid backup to install from CWM and have a ready to go phone...

Will come back soon with something

G750-U10

I also have a G750-U10, and I'm starting to believe that the particular firmware (B113) though old, is pretty much locked up. First of all, Framaroot 1.9.3 was unable to root it using any of the three exploits, so I had to use RootGenius.

Anyway, I rooted it, backed up the NVRAM as suggested, and did a full backup of the phone following BioBio's .docx guide that I found somewhere in this thread.

Then, it was about time to use SP Flash tool to flash a B611 firmware, but I had a hell of a time trying to make my phone "stay" connected. I put my scatter file, chose the correct files, and put SPFT in searching mode (pressed Download button). Then, I connected my phone without battery to my laptop but it couldn't get detected. It kept there for 5 minutes with a blinking red LED, and only got detected as soon as I attached the battery. But, again, in a moment it disappeared from the device manager of my laptop and SPFT popped an error (S_BROM_DOWNLOAD_DA_FAIL (2004)). Just to save you from suggesting it, the VCOM drivers were installed correctly (double and triple checked that). I even repeated the process in two other computers (one netbook and desktop) without success, giving me the exact same error.

Right now I'm totally clueless, and disappointed... And Huawei doesn't seem to be interested in releasing a new firmware for the U10 version...

Thoughts? Ideas?

Hi All,

I'm thinking of getting the Honor 3x Pro T20 and wanted to solicit some feedback on it before making a decision.

I've had the H9008 and the ZP998 phones before and honestly, I wouldn't recommend anyone getting either due to quality issues with the phones.

However, I do like the MTK6592 chipset and I'm thinking of getting the 3x Pro since it's from a bigger brand manufacturer and hopefully the support is better and firmware updates more frequent.

Therefore any feedback on the 3x Pro would be much appreciated in terms of the following:

1. Call/Voice quality and reception on both SIMs

2. GPS reception and lock

3. Camera capture quality

4. Screen brightness and sensitivity

5. Wifi reception

6. Caller ID resolution to phonebook numbers on both SIMs

7. Goolge Playstore and Apps support

8. Battery Life

9. Internal speakers for audio output

10. Smart-View Case support

11. General Stability of the Phone (any random reboots)

Thanks.

Hey ! I've had an issue I think, for some time now the battery information has been unavailable (~1-2days after KK release) and battery percentage is stuck at 68%... Do you know where it could come from ?

Hi,

Still not sure vcom drivers are installed correctly, but anyway this is something I can't be sure....

You said your phone is rooted, so install mobiluncle and put the rua1 CWM recovery on the root of your external sdcard,

Then put the phone into fly mode (no 3g, no wireless active) then using mobiluncle try to flash CWM recovery choosing the one you put

on your external sdcard

If the process goes through then reboot on CWM recovery mode
[Device Reviews and Information] :
1. On sim 1 excellent

2. GPS is quite precise and fast especially for mtk

3. Good, but getting better with updates

4.Excellent

5. Excellent, no reproach to make

6. There is an issue since kit Kat update but releases were ok. Did not associate local and international numbers though

7. Yes

8. Two days on intensive use, way more if you are nice to your batteries

9. Good, with dots effects but not excellent

10. Not tried

11. No random reboot for me, I've had it for two months now

[Device Reviews and Information] tzivas31:
hello i have G750-U10 and i have B113 Firmware. I want to ask ifi i just download B611 update.app and put in a dload folder and choose local upgrade it will work or i will brick my phone?
[Device Reviews and Information] fuzzytv:
Thanks for your inputs.

The phonebook name resolution with caller id issue is only apparent in the Kit Kat release or even with Jelly Bean? The ZP998 had the issue with the numbers with the international dialing code as the prefix where it couldn't resolve the number to the name and it was a real deal breaker.

I've read here that since the T00 and T20 are China domestic model phones which do not come with Google Play Store needs to be rooted to install it. However once that is done, it breaks the OTA updates. Is that correct?

Also which sensors are built into the phone?
[Device Reviews and Information] rfary:
i still have issue resolving the international code and without for local number even on jellybean. tried to put two numbers under the same contact but still don't seem to work.

google play store can be added using the huawei app store. after that you can just use google play store. no root needed.

How did you get CWM on the pro?
[Device Reviews and Information] sklks:
Same case here, I bricked on of this phones trying to install CWM and on my new device and last one I only have B112, your phone came already with B113? Where did you bought it? Do you have in your country any firmware link to download your B113 version?

---------- Post added at 04:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:21 PM ----------

I tried in two different phone, when I got one error about firmware version, because most files are fot G750-t10 or t00 and not to U10.
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
The users who have B113 can make a dump of this S H I T T Y stock rom via mtk Droid tool or better via sp flash tool ( function read back... If it goes through...)

You should try (after have done a NVRAM full backup) to flash the rom I posted BUT doing FORMAT ALL + DOWNLOAD
[Device Reviews and Information] tzivas31:
Can you tell us step by step with simple words what we have first must download to have and then with simple words and steps what we have to do get rid of it and how to put something better and if we can have it rooted? I am a really noob with these that's why i want if of course you can give a tutorial step by step what to do. Thank you for all your help you can give me
[Device Reviews and Information] Mchael T.:
I kept getting kicked off, timed out or just wont DL, but I finally got one DL'd......(Geeessh).

Do you have the MD5, or SHA 256 for the original file please.

I'm not taking any chances here, with my buddy's phone, nice shiny phone, pretty phone,,,,,,(precious)....
[Device Reviews and Information] PrinceOfAbyss:
Biobio, I can gladly PM you my Skype, and when you have some spare time you can connect to my computer through Teamviewer to have a look for yourself mate. I'm a computer guy, there is no possibility that I couldn't install a driver... ;)

But anyway, how would CWM benefit me in installing B641 Kitkat? I could install CWM with MTD Droid tool as well, which I got familiarized with, but what's the point?

Honestly though, I suspect U10 devices are somehow locked and can't connect to SP Flash tool. It's me, tzivas13, and sklks who all three of us have U10 and can't do that (personally, I couldn't root it with Framaroot either, don't know about the rest two).

No, it won't work tzivas. It'll say that U10 is not in the verlist of the update. In other words, it expects a T00 phone, and you have a U10 (I tried it).

I got it from the same telecom provider as tzivas did (Wind Telecoms in Greece). Unfortunately, I don't think it's somewhere available to download it from. I could send you mine though, which I backed up through MTK Droid tool. But why on earth would you like to install it...? Let's better find a way to get rid of it and B112 and install something worth installing (B641)...
[Device Reviews and Information] sklks:
I got root using RootGenius but in some programs it doesn't work very well, like Titatnium. My version has several bugs in Google Calendar (f/c), contact app and message app, can't sync and merge correctely all contacts, phone think the number with country prefix are different numbers.
[Device Reviews and Information] wiser212:
I'm experiencing similar issues with RootGenius on the T20 model.
[Device Reviews and Information] PrinceOfAbyss:
I rooted mine with RootGenius as well, and what I hated most was that it set Kinguser as system app... I hate it when apps behave like this... And when I wiped Kinguser, it also got unrooted...

U10

guys,

I personally feel sorry for your frustrations in trying to flash your U10 rom and replace it with better firmware....

I believe when you say that SP FLASH TOOL is not working at your side...but how are you sure 100% the VCOM drivers are installed correctly?

how are you sure ( forget about honor 3x now.. ) another phone can be flashed instead ( with your actual configuration) ??

most of you never used SP FLASH TOOL and this is for you the first approach to the program....I remember years ago took me two weeks to set up SP FLSH TTOL to work properly...and actually I have a laptop that I formated the hard-drive, and I use it JUST for flashing and testing mobiles...

SO , once again, how many time ( BUT ESPECIALLY ) what have you done

to BE REALLY SURE

sp flash tool ( VCOM ) drivers are working??

have you installed USBviewer?

have you tried to unistall and install again the drivers?

have you read my post at # 345'??

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=52201869&postcount=345

see attached at this post a tutorial I have done some months ago, that explain how to ( simple way ) make a dump of your ROOTED phone and create a CWM RECOVERY via MTK DROID TOOL....have you tried to do this? in case try please and let me know the out-come
[Device Reviews and Information] PrinceOfAbyss:
Mate, you haven't read my previous post carefully where I described what I've done so far. I've followed your instruction in every possible detail.

And of course I used USBViewer, and also tried with both your manual and automatic installation off VCOM drivers. Nothing works unfortunately. But anyway, if you feel I've done something wrong, please, be my guest, my Skype is princeofabyss@hotmail.com, add me and you can check for yourself through Teamviewer. Better yet, you can install them for me, and just let me know when you want me to connect the phone to my laptop.
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
focusing on remove your actual VCOM with USBviewer...and then, when you plug your phone ( off mode ) be sure you have a filemanager open and you will see for some second a "yellow ?" recongnized from PC...then , doing very fast, click with right mouse button and chose to install drivers....

basically point number 3 of my guide:

QUOTE

3)VCOM_manual_installation.zip

this is basically the common VCOM drivers.....necessary if you want to install it manually.

this can be done WHEN you see for 5 seconds the xx65 recognized by your PC...you should be fast and right click on it...and chose manual installation, giving the exctracted folder as destination for your drivers.......

you have to chose*Media Tek Preloader USB VCOM and install it....

UNQUOTE

and then try to flash my KITKAT rom over your U10 rom....be sure you have NVRAM backed up ( meaning two file ..a *.bin and a *.rar )
[Device Reviews and Information] PrinceOfAbyss:
Without battery, the phone is not detected at all from the computer. No yellow triangle, no red unrecognized device in the Device Manager of Windows. It gets detected for a fragment of a second only when I connect the battery, and then disappears again. I'm telling you and you can't believe it, but it's true.
[Device Reviews and Information] MasTacK_Fr:
Hi Lotan,

Try to update your device with the last official firmware (OTA update in WiFi) and do a factory reset after.

It's better ? ;)

I should get my phone today / tomorrow...

Sadly I was with Ovivo, so will also need a PAYG sim...

If susieuna is still following, maybe he / she could update the first post with relevant information on what to do when you receive it, how to root, where are the Gapps, what info developpers would need, how to make the nandroid backup / install CWM, links to the updated roms, etc.?
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
to you and to ALL

as soon as I finally get my honor ( end march, should be the 27 or 28 )...I will open an official 3D on XDA for hour Honor 3x

there, everybody will find complete instruction on what to do from the first "turn on " of the phone up to installation of ( I hope ) my incoming first

custom rom for it :)
[Device Reviews and Information] olio99:
So it's in my hands now.

Build quality is good, it's already in English, and tells me there's an update to my B120 version.

I haven't installed anything yet.

Should I just update?

Update: Well, I've rooted using framaroot Bahair exploit, successfully. I'm now installing GApps...

Strangely enough the update it seemed to propose did not materialise, although after a reboot I had a second or two of a message "updating android"

Edit 2: Only rooted. Not sure where to put the .zip so it can be seen from recovery... so no Gapps for now.
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
you need to install gapps.zip from a CWM recovery...not from stock recovery my friend

you can install gapps ( all the apps.apk directly ) manually as well using example rootexplorer ( if phone is roted )....push the several

app needed into system/app, then immediately change permission using rootexplorer and give to app this rw-r - r -

reeboot and that's it....

DO A BACKUP OF YOUR STOCK ROM PRIOR TO STYART "PLAY" WITH THE PHONE , install gapps etc etc

cheers
[Device Reviews and Information] olio99:
You're right, I was rushing... Too excited.

So I've installed the MTK Droid Tools and have created a backup (packed).

Is there anything you need from me? Scatter file? Block map?
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
have you ever used MTK DROID TOOL?

do you have ( packed or not make no differece ) the final "!Files_to_FlashTool" folder with your ready to flash files via SP FLASH TOOL?

if not, you did not complete the backup of your stock rom....

pay attention guys
[Device Reviews and Information] olio99:
No. There is no manual on how to use that software, and I'm not a developer myself, so it's confusing. I clicked on the "backup" button, and it saved several files to my PC, that's all.

To prepare a proper backup, I then need to go find the *.md5 via the "prepare blocks for flash tools" button? (as per http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=44509214&postcount=407)

Then to integrate the CWM recovery, I'd use http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=44660171&postcount=417

The root is easy via Framaroot, and I just need to install the Gapps from CWM recovery...

Is that right?

I'm so far impressed by the phone, and some of the Huawei apps look really good. But I can also see it will need to be freed of the Chinese source reliance. For example, the weather app gets its info from weather.com.cn
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
see attached my tutorial for everybody how to perform a DUMP with MTK DROID TOOL.

hope this will help everybody.

cheers
[Device Reviews and Information] olio99:
That's great thank you very much. I'll flash CWM + Gapps this afternoon.

It's similar to my findings (although it took time!)

Do you mind if I translate this and put in on a French forum where I've started a topic on the H3X? Of course I'll link to this post and all acknowledgements will be there.

See French topic here; http://forum.hardware.fr/hfr/gsmgpspda/telephone-android/huawei-glory-honor-sujet_27614_1.htm
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
Je n'ai aucun problème monsieur :cowboy:

the best will be if you do the process with your honor so the pictures and well as the messages are real time reflecting MTK DROID TOOL vs Honor 3X

as said, I did it with my zopo 980, it's going to be 99% the same, at least on the "paper" .... but I did not try yet since my phone is still in china, sigh...

cheers
[Device Reviews and Information] olio99:
So, it's good, I've rooted, installed Gapps and am reinstalling my usual apps, but there is still some info in Chinese (e.g. origin of calls, as well as some Huawei apps I'd like to get rid of.

I'm having problems with a couple of apps but I think it's due to a problem with my SIM.

And there is no access to the engineering menu on Mobile Uncle, probably because of Emotion UI.

I'm now looking forward to the Huawei update for international customers!
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
mobiluncle is just a PLATFORM to run MTK services....and maybe they did not update yet mobiluncle to the very last 6592 processor

download simply the MTK engineer app from playstore and install it, here is the link to pull down from PLAYSTORE:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.themonsterit.EngineerStarter

install it and please let us know if it's working,Thanks

to unistall some chinese app, if not mandatory as system app for the "stability " of the rom, you can use TitaniumBackupPro ( paid app )

or other similar like rootuninstaller

both on PLAYSTORE.

cheers

---------- Post added at 11:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:40 AM ----------

another way to get access to engineer mode is simply tipying the code access on the phone directly,

for CPU 6577 or 6589 was simply typing those code:

*#*#3646633#*#*. Or- *#3646633#*

make a try and let us know if it's working on honor too.

cheers
[Device Reviews and Information] olio99:
Thanks. But after installing this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.themonsterit.EngineerStarter

If I run it and try to access MTK settings, I get an error message "Cannot find Engineering mode app"

Also, in Titanium Backup, when trying to uninstall something as non-critical as Kingsoft Office or SohuTV, I get an error message indicating "failed to locate the apk file".
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
strange....

unfortunately don't have yet the phone on hands so I can't do test myself for the engineering mode......

are you using Titanium backup PRO? only the PRO paid version is usually perform the unistallation correctly...

there are , anyways, other way to unistall apps, but guys I don't have the phone, and I don't want to suggest you things that can compromise the stability of the system, at least without first have tried myself....
[Device Reviews and Information] olio99:
I'm using the free version.

I have managed to uninstall some chinese apps and Kingston office via the settings / apps management menu.

And some apps can be moved to SD, but not all (e.g. VLC can be moved, but the amazon appstore can't), and I don't know what is the criteria.
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
invest this 5 dollars and buy titanium pro.....and you will solve your problems.

again, there are other ways to remove app, done via rootexplorer or via CWM using a updater-script......but titanium pro do that

while the phone is running and advise what can be done and what can't be done to avoid compromising stability of the rom......

it's up to you man...
[Device Reviews and Information] AndyWhittaker:
Confirmed those key presses bring the Huawei G750 into an Engineer Mode.

Thanks for your help!
[Device Reviews and Information] olio99:
I can also confirm *#*#3646633#*#* opens the engineering mode.
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
supposed it was in this way....well guys thanks for confirmation! :cool:
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
The phone usually is recognized if you plug it on off mode and with battery (who told you to plug without battery?)

Exactly, in that fragment of second you must be fast to catch it with right mouse button.... Even if then disappears, but you catched it, then you can chose drivers installation chosing the drivers accordingly from extracted directory given

When you finished you don't see drivers or phone shown on file manager..... You see the vcom port only when you flash the phone...
[Device Reviews and Information] dancrow:
For those who root their phones with rootgenius, I'm sure I saw somewhere on xda dev a post that teach you how to replace rootgenius with supersu or superuser
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
should be enough download superSU from playstore and install it...when launched supersu should prompt that another administration application is installed and propose to be the only one de-installing the other.....
[Device Reviews and Information] vikasbhendarkar:

[Device Reviews and Information] tzivas31:
biobio we can use this tutorial and us with B113 or we have to do some things more before we follow these instructions?
[Device Reviews and Information] biobio76:
hi,

I was expecting people having the famouse U10 start posting....

well guys, of course you can, this should finally change your idrib to a last release version of the phone...

the problem I have seen a lot of users have is being not able to use SP FLASH TOOL......

still don't know if this is because most of you did not setup the VCOM drivers correctly or becasue there is something else behind.

the boatloader is UNLOCKED , so you should be able to flash roms on U10 without issue,

as far as I know the U10 comes already rooted or anyway it's easy to root being the firmware very old.....so most important thing is to have NVRAM files backed up before you try following the tutorial.

try.....
[Device Reviews and Information] tzivas31:
can you give us a link for the recovery you suggesting on your tutorial?i google it and serach it but has many recoveries from this developer with name 5.5.0.4. but are for other phones and i don't want to download wrong file. thank you
