unrooting from superSU. so can we assume that supersu causes the SD card issue and not towelroot? anyway to go safely to root ?
[General Questions and Answers] :
Yes, we can. While you don't install superSU you will have robot, otherwise, superSU won't ask permisssion to SU. The only way I've found that everything works is to use KingRoot with its own SU binary installed By Root Genius. If it says your phone is very tough to root try using towelroot method and retry with Root Genius, options Root it por Quick Root.
[General Questions and Answers] raulsmat:
Root Genius and King Root is the correct option. They don't cause sd issues.
[General Questions and Answers] pardalslb:
Regarding the ROM

First of all , thx for the rom and the recovery.

I have some questions and things to point :

1st: The notification bar is OF

2nd : Root is off , i used towelroot, till now i didn't have the issue of the internal sd being unavailable

3rd: I did a factory reset and the themes came back and also the notification bar but the majority of the apps that come with the rom are gone.

Is this normal or does it mean that i lost the rom and what i have now is the default b189 build?

Thx again for everything
[General Questions and Answers] barakaakyoo:
Its true, they have removed some apps, like android browser replaced with opera, Google drive, chrome e.t.c removed
[General Questions and Answers] pardalslb:
After factory reset

What i would like to know is if the changes to the rom are maintained after a factory reset.

i understand that the apps are gone, but are the performance changes still on?
[General Questions and Answers] barakaakyoo:
The performance is great for sure
[General Questions and Answers] AndroidSpaceMonkey:
Working Root?

Hey guys, so I've looked through this forum thread and seen that many people are suggesting TowelRoot or SRSRoot and although it's been proven to work for some I'm having nothing but failure so I figured I would try and supply some information on the hope that someone would be able to help me out with this.

Model Number:

HUAWEI Y530-U00

Android Version:

4.3

Baseband Version

01760

Kernel Version

3.4.0+

android@localhost #1

Build Number

Y530-U00V100R001C900B189

Custom Version

CUSTC432D003

So what i've been doing is connecting the Phone to my system (Windows 8.1) in debug mode and also with Unknown Source allowed (as it was suggested in videos)....With TowelRoot it just come back with the message "You should now have root, no reboot required" after 2 seconds of pressing the "make it rain" button...but when I check with SuperUser is says it's not rooted, and with SRSRoot it goes through a few of the roots and then gets to "Auto Root Failed on this device".

I would greatly appreciate a root for this device as I do love it but without the ability to move to SD there is very little room on it.

Regards

AM

U can use vroot 1.7.9 to root without issues with internal sd. The bad part is the chinese superuser. But u can cange to kingroot with some work.

Vroot works.
[General Questions and Answers] AndroidSpaceMonkey:
So looks like VRoot is now called iRoot and I used 1.7.9.2 (English & Chinese Version) but it never worked, after it said it was rooting and rebooting it ended on this message (Image Attached)

Is there something specific that needs to be done other then having Debug mode on and clicking on the Root button of iRoot?
[General Questions and Answers] :
Use towelroot, it will tell you have root. Immediately after towelroot use Root Genius, if it was rooted and Root Genius detects your root it will give you the Quick Root option, if not, use the Root it option. My point is, use this tools as you can, they both will give you root some way or another in the b189 and b185 firmware. It's tricky I know. Don't get why superSU mounts sdcard0 using root as the owner instead of system.
[General Questions and Answers] barakaakyoo:
I did the same tric on firmware B510

and had root access with no sd issues
[General Questions and Answers] AndroidSpaceMonkey:
I used TowelRoot followed by Root Genius and after 10 minutes of it trying to root it it came back with "such a tough phone! Root...failed"

Not 100% what i'm doing wrong here when everyone is saying that these solutions have worked for others but it's starting to drive me crazy.
[General Questions and Answers] vladhed:
unlock bootloader first, then root?

What about unlocking the bootloader first? Some in this thread are saying that is required. I, too, have had no luck rooting my Y530-U051 using a multitude of programs/apps, but I don't have an unlocked bootloader (mainly because I don't want my phone reset - i finally got it the way I like it).
[General Questions and Answers] AndroidSpaceMonkey:
I'll try that then, I emailed mobile@huawei.com with my Serial Number, IMEI & Produce ID as outlined in this forum post (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=52764831&postcount=81) but been told it can take up to 3 days to get a reply from Huawei, I also tried a few "Unlock Code" websites but all the websites are giving me the same code and it's not working with it, does anyone know of a accurate tutorial on how to do it?
[General Questions and Answers] :
Does it? I frankly don't understand that ROM. It's little more than a nandroid backup with base ROM + tweaks or maybe I just don't get it. Once I flashed the ROM i found it was not rooted, after rooting I found it didn't have busybox binary installed inside system/xbin or system/bin folder, once I installed busybox manually and managed link2SD to operate I found a lot of ODEX files, recently I found out rngd (the entropy daemon) wasn't running from boot and discovered that, while there are scripts inside /system/etc/init.d folder, they are not running at boot. So, I felt the change in performance but maybe because it was an upgrade from B185 to B189. I'm gonna test if services.jar is patched using zeppelinrox's supercharger script.... wouldn't be surprised if it's not patched at all.

Or maybe I did not flash it correctly...
[General Questions and Answers] barakaakyoo:
you're right you know, performance is some what good in it, because of what things its missing, what can I call it? Its no Rom but nandroid backup, so there are a lot of things missing, even themes are missing, the only thing i found it cool its the performance of 3g+, but because they are not willing to tell me how to get things which are missing to work correctly, I switched to my B510 anyway, and about root u are also right, it has kinguser but has no root access as described
[General Questions and Answers] Getoari:
Now that we have a custom recovery can I downgrade from B194 to B189 ?
[General Questions and Answers] :
Yes. noise tribe's ROM is based on B189 firmware. Flash it and you'll be there. It is fully compatible with our CWM. Just don't expect al those features listed, you are even going to need to robot again.
[General Questions and Answers] Getoari:
Thank you for the reply I tried that ROM but I can't flash it I get the following log:

....

No MD5 verification performed

erasing boot before restore...

retoring boot image...

system.img not found. Skipping restore of /system.

error while restoring /data!

P.S

In the beginning I also get:

Could not find reference MD5 for:

EDIT:

I think I re-extract the folder and put it in my sd and it worked thank you :)
[General Questions and Answers] fitztu:
Hello,

I have a question.

Is this recovery only backup and restore system, boot and recovery partition?

Because even if I restore my phone from another's backup with different Version firmware, the OEMSBL_ver and OEMSBL_verlist are still the same.

And if we need downgrade with OTA method through recovery, we need change this two files.

Is it possible making backup and restore together with OEMSBL_ver and OEMSBL_verlist?
[General Questions and Answers] :
Yes, only conventional partitions and mountpoints are supported. I'm not the right person to answer this question, muy guess is, if they are conventional partitions, then it would be possible.

crashin games

Hi all

Is anyone else experiencing random game crashes with this phone? I bought this phone two days ago and its driving me crazy that i cant play most games because they just crash. Ive tried deleting some apps that come with the phone, tried using game boosters and task killers and even a factory reset with no sucess. Ive yet to access recovery mode and im wating for a reply from huawei in order to unlock the bootloader (i dont know if this helps me in any way,but im kinda desperate!!!)!

I also removed sd card and install games in internal memory without sucess.

Any help is welcome,thx in advance!
[General Questions and Answers] IcemanSR:
Those games are most definitely crashing due to missing livewallpaper support

i mentioned that one page back

nothing u can do about it,unless u can get root, cwm /custom rom
[General Questions and Answers] pardalslb:
Thx

ive searched and saw a way to enable live wallpapper but it seems it neads root.

Ive also unlocked the boot loader and now, it seems im in the line to wait for a way to root this phone.

Thx for the answer :)
[General Questions and Answers] pardalslb:
Live wallpaper support

Ok

This random game crashes are making me lose my mind, So, i google about ways to fix the lack of live wallpaper support and i came across an info about " pushing the app to the phone by adb to /system/app".

Anyone here can tell me more about this?

ive unlocked my bootloader, is this enough to be able to put the live wallpaper app to work on the phone or do i need root to do this?

There is a "GetVRoot" button in the top right corner of that site, which leads to an english version of the app. I also have Y530, and would like to see a CM port or something.

[General Questions and Answers] MetalDranzer:
I;'m half tempted to try 1.7.3 because I dont wanna be stuck with a chinese os. How soon do you guys think it'll be until we have a CFW or cyanogenmod. on this phone? Personally, I find the original 4.3 home system very ew is, having come from 2.3.4 on an Xperia Play.

Also, if 1.7.3 fails to root, what are the risks to the phone itself? Should I unlock the bootloader first? An ever so quick step by step would be really handy for someone like me who's just a little on edge after this exploit was just discovered yesterday, but wants to jump in head first XD
[General Questions and Answers] rryan:
My bootloader was already unlocked, don't know if that had anything to do with it working.

Also, your phone won't turn chinese, only the su application is in chinese.

QUESTION

Hey guys, so this may have been asked before but couldn't find it so thought it was worth asking.

On the Huawei Y530 the front facing camera has a VERY low frame rate when in low light obviously to capture as much light as possible to take cleaner images BUT I was wondering if there is a patch the community has made that increases the frame rate or allows the user to modify the the settings for it like gamma, exposure, etc?

If not has anyone with technical experience attempted to replace the front camera with a better spec model as a project and if so what where the results of this?

It is not necesarily the recovery not working. You have not tested it yet. Are you logged with administrator account? Have you tried re-downloading recovery.img? Optionally, if you have a backup of your factory recovery, you may try to flash it directly once you download again. I hope you succeed.

I'm pretty sure it will work when it gets flashed. You can try with flashify for root users or Nandroid Mánager to get it done directly from your phone. Those apps are in Play Store. If you use FOSS, in Fdroid you can use the Performance Control app that includes an option to flash recovery. Use flashify, as someone already reported is working.
