Successful root

I finally managed to root this phone. Tried and failed lots of times, the only thing that worked was towelroot. Install the apk, make sure you can install non-market devices in security settings. Ignore the warnings that it's a virus and it worked first time. Worth having SuperSu controls though with it.

The phone has really small internal storage so root is essential I think.

Huawei Ascend Y530 Root and Live Wallpapers

Hi, New here! :D I have a Huawei Ascend Y530 running JB 4.3 I was trying to root it and downloaded an app from Google play called how to root. This app is suppose to tell me whether or not my phone is rooted. It says it is rooted but I was wondering if anyone knows if this is a reliable app or is there a better recommendation? Through researching i've discovered that this phone seems to be hard to root and such. I'm not that tech savvy so if it is rooted, I was wondering how I can run live wallpapers on it. Thanks

hello, fail to unlock bootloader . i have unlock code but fail next step with cmd .i believe the phone is not detected. i give fastboot comand but nothing view image
[General Questions and Answers] Getoari:
You've entered just the commands without any parameter thats why it's showing you all the parameters you can use.

The command to unlock the bootloader is:

fastboot oem unlock 1234567812345678

replace 1234567812345678 with the code you received from Huawei.

P.S

Put your phone in Fastboot mode (by holding power and Vol -) then check if you device is recognised with the command:

fastboot devices (you should see a message like this: 9e42530e)

If it is not then install the drivers you can find the drivers when you connect your phone with usb to PC.

[General Questions and Answers] Getoari:
I'm not sure it's useless for now and I think I've read that it's better to lock the bootloader but I think Huawei makes this kind of warnings just to prevent us to use a custom firmware.

More information in the link below:

http://en.club.vmall.com/emotiondownload.php?mod=unlock&action=apply

I think you you can let you bootloader unlocked but if you want to lock it here's the command:

fastboot oem relock (password with 16 digits)

best regards.

I would not recommend Towelroot I also used towelroot at fist but after restarting you phone you will lose access to your internal memory.

Hi Guys,

I'm pretty new over here and would like to ask you something. i have unlocked my huawei Y300 and flashed Nebula into it. before doing this i made a back up from all of my data ( contact, text, etc ) but i can not reload that back up with any back up program. so i tried to install the allbackup.apk from this froum to restore my files but unfortunately no matter which version or which setting i try i can not install this program.

can anyone help me on this. how can i restore my back up without the application itself or is there any replacement for that program?

back up

Thanks for the reply man.

by backup i didnt mean rom backup, I meant my data like SMS, call log, contacts, settings, programs everything. i made that backup with the pre-installed backup program on Huawei ascend y300 original rom. the same as the attached app in several posts before this. now since i dont have the same application in Nebula and since i can not install that application on my phone for an unknown reason, i can not restore my data back.

I'm pretty confused. i tried also other ROMs like EXPERT V4 but again i could not install that back up application from huawei's original rom.

from what i got till now the only way to restore my data is to install that application. but i can not find a way to install that on my cellphone ( i also tried to switch between internal and external SD cards but again no result.

:(
[General Questions and Answers] Getoari:
If you made the backup with the backup options of the original firmware then I think you backup files are stored in google cloud servers under your google account to get them back you just have to make a factory reset then in the phone setup connect to wifi and enter you google account leave all the tick on and you should have your contacts and apps back(or maybe try to activate sync in your settings). I have done this before I've got my contacts back and some of my apps(the apps aren't just there they are downloaded automatically), only the ones I downloaded from Google Play 'cos it's google's official backup it's not a custom one.

Moving apps etc from internal storage to sd card

I would like to move a vast amount of the stuff on the internal storage to my phones sd card.

How do I do this? I have managed to move some things but am unsure about deleting them from the internal drive, whether this will cause problems with the phone?

When I try to add new apps it keeps telling me there is insufficient space available.

Is there any way to put the new apps directly onto the sd card?

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] Getoari:
You can't move some apps and even the apps you can move to SD card aren't moved completely.

To move all your apps you have to partition your sd card. I've partition my sd card into 2 partiitons.

One FAT32 5 GB and one EXT2 (for apps) 2GB.

here's a tutorial how to partition your sd card:

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/SD_card_partitioning

When you have done that then install Link2SD ,install it from google play or better buy the pro version with the pro version you can move apps completely to sd card. (you can use Lucky Patcher to make it pro but forget i said that :P)

If you wan't apps automatically moved to sd card after installation open Link2SD open settings (it's in the tree vertical dots in the upper right corner) and activate auto link go to auto link settings and activate Link internal data so the complete app will be moved to the SD card.

The feature that allows apps to install directly to the external memory doesn't work it always shows the error killed.

[General Questions and Answers] mattefin:
If Kingroot is working for me (and I'm not joking :D) it should work for you too!

Please, install the latest version of vroot in your WINDOWS PC. Connect your Huawei Y530 to your PC and start vroot.

Try to follow instructions and your device will be rooted :good:

What to do now? You can stay with vroot or you can change it (becouse it's a chinese app and you don't understand chinese :laugh:). If you want to change it, uninstall it and install Kingroot. Your device will mantain root as before with vroot.

If you don't want to complicate your life, use just only vroot (last version, that english-chinese one).

It's simple, as described in one of the first pages of this tread. I followed that guide some months ago and I rooted my phone without any problem. Let me know if you resolve or not.
[General Questions and Answers] TotalErikas:
That's exactly what I did, yet I failed the rooting process .

I tried towelroot, I clicked the make it ra1n, yet no root access .

I basicly tried erverything, and I still don't have root.

I tried puting my phone as a camera, storage, I tried disabling fast boot, and nothing worked , I gave access to vroot , but it didn't work , nothing works :(
