Hi, Huawei logo stuck is the bootloader, you are doing it right.

If you type fastboot devices you should see your device.

Did you try this?

If it does not work, please tell us:

1) the operating system you are using

2) if you are an high privileged user (root on Linux, run as Administrator on Windows)

3) what kind of USB ports are you using: USB 3.0 ports don't work to me on Linux with fastboot

which version of cwm I can install on huawei y530? and I can flash it with ROM Manager?
[General Questions and Answers] :
There are only two builds, same version. Look at popular posts of this thread to find the recovery.img file. And yes, you can flash it using ROM Manager.
[General Questions and Answers] PieroV:
For the moment use CENTSOARER's one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=56582106#post56582106

I suggest you not to flash it immediately, but boot it with fastboot, make a backup of your phone, and then flash it.

You can boot it with this command:

fastboot boot recovery.img

If you want to change some settings use zeppelinrox's supercharger script, the one he calls "for your lag". It's very easy once services.jar is patched. The config I put there is the multitasking one, but if you like to hace more free RAM always you can configure more strict OOM and minfree values with other profiles.

How about audio with extremebeats? Did it work? Is it rooted? The mods persist?

Broke bootloader

Hey everyone,

While following the instructions on installing CWM for Huawei Y530 I ended up "breaking" my bootloader. Now all it says is

Recover image verify failed!

Please update to the authorized images.

Any idea on can I get it back to work?

By the way, everything else work as usual, I'm able to boot by the battery removal method. I have Nandroid installed and my device is rooted.

Anybody knows a possible fix?

Thanks in advance! :)
[General Questions and Answers] guywithafro:
Hey there, thanks for the prompt reply.

I had it unlocked months ago following this instructions, do I need to repeat them?

Also, will I be able to repeat them if I can't get my device into fastboot? (Turning off then on while holding POWER + VOL DOWN gets my device stuck at the boot logo).
[General Questions and Answers] :
Seems complicated. I do not know what could have happened with your bootloader but seems weird you can boot to Android. I would try reflashing thru Nandroid Manager or "dd", maybe you are gonna need to reinstall original firmware.

emui[dot]huawei[dot]com/plugin.php?id=hwdownload&mod=list
[General Questions and Answers] PieroV:
Hi, the link you provided doesn't contain images for phones nor the source code of emui, but it contains the kernel source code, that isn't related to the UI.
[General Questions and Answers] barakaakyoo:
Yes it does and i downloaded one, its the source code in .tar but i have no idea of how to flash it.
[General Questions and Answers] PieroV:
You need the toolchain to compile it first!

You can generate the boot.img, which is very important, but useless without the rest of the system, which is contained in system.img.

You could also patch the kernel, if you need it, generate a boot.img to use with our stock kernel, but at the moment I don't see any use.

You have to use this source code to build CyanogenMod, but you need to patch it (vidc, msm video drivers etc...), which isn't very easy.
[General Questions and Answers] csuha:
Shame :( i'm not into it I bought the phone 3 months ago, but it will be nice if we had some tools, for changing the elements of the emui, because it is a fast launcher (for the 512 mb ram it is the best solution i think) but those icons and menus looks horrible.

btw anyone knows here, how can I check the emui version? because i found some theme, but the phone wont put the custom lockscreen, even if I select it :/

I use NovaLauncher

Very fast launcher, and a very good resemblance of the stock android, with alot of additional functions.

You can download and apply different skins and icons :)
[General Questions and Answers] :
Use Apex free or Nova free. There is the stock KitKat Android launcher too available in F-droid store which is barebones light, ported for ICS+ phones.

There are lots of other free, as in beer, options in Play Store.
[General Questions and Answers] japstar:
edited it :)
[General Questions and Answers] PieroV:
Hi!

Do you mean file by archive?

In that case you should use msm8610_defconfig.

Maybe you should add some lines for SELinux if you want to support it for Cyanogenmod.

Have you experience in patching, too?

In this case we could work together...

No problem :)
[General Questions and Answers] csuha:
I don't want to use a custom launcher, because it will slow down after a time and every time i go to home screen it must redraw the whole screen. + I have only 1 gig storage for the apps, but there is another 1 gig free space in the internal storage but i cant use it for apps.. :/ anybody knws why?
[General Questions and Answers] :
For avoiding redraws you can supercharge your phone using zeppelinrox's tools or flash the optimized firmware I uploaded some days ago. Also, to avoid storage limitations you can use Link2SD. Both require some level of knowledge.

The reason you can't use the available space is the partition scheme. If you are rooted you can use Link2SD to convert (and change from one partition to another) user apps to system apps and viceversa. This way you may have more control of your available space.
[General Questions and Answers] marek334:
My Huawei stop working when and android logo is on dispay.

Have any idea how fix this phone..

Oficial update failure.
[General Questions and Answers] csuha:
Thanks for reply, can I modify the internal storage partition sheme with the link2sd app? As I know it is just for the sd card isn't it?
[General Questions and Answers] :
No. Don't modify it even if you can. Link2SD is for external SD card, you need to create a partition in external sd card, in this partition will be your apps after you link them, freeing space in data and system partition.

To be clear, your apps will be still installed in data and system partition, when you link them with Link2SD you'll find symlinks (tiny sized) in data partition to the assigned partition in external SD card, which contain the actual app archives (larger size).
[General Questions and Answers] csuha:
One more question, what if I linked an app to the sd, and it needs to be update? Will it update automatically, or I need to unlink, and link the app again?
[General Questions and Answers] :
It will update, you can even configure Link2SD to link automatically all new installed apps. If you link one app one time Link2SD will automatically link all updates for that app.

I followed instructions and I can boot CWM okay, but I cannot get it to flash. adb reboot bootloader, powering on with the volume down key pressed or using CWM "reboot to bootloader" all return me to the stock Rescue screen.

The flash appears to be working and the stock Rescue screen says PHONE Unlocked:

C:\adb>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

target reported max download size of 301989888 bytes

sending 'recovery' (12442 KB)...

OKAY [ 0.513s]

writing 'recovery'...

OKAY [ 1.207s]

finished. total time: 1.721s

C:\adb>

What am I likely missing? I think I went back through all the previous posts on CWM and I haven't missed anything.
[General Questions and Answers] PieroV:
Y530 is more powerful and recent, it has a better SoC! It has a MSM8x10, which has a slight faster CPU and a better GPU (Adreno 302 vs. Adreno 203).

However if you want to modify it immediately, Y300 is the choice.

If you should buy it, I suggest you other devices, with more RAM: both the devices has 512MB, which limit them too much.

The bootloader (adb reboot bootloader, Power + VolDown, CWM entry Reboot to bootloader) remains the same, the Huawei logo.

The recovery changes (adb reboot recovery, Power + VolDown + VolUp, CWM entry Reboot to recovery)...

Y530 won't have a CM12 until it's stable.

It's not sure that it will have CM11, too, because I'm getting lots of problems with drivers.

Breaking the code is very easy. I have some C knowledge, I've compiled the Linux kernel for other devices, but I've never patched it before....

Bell Mobility 4.3 update.app Huawei y530

My device shipped with 4.2.Something Android, kept telling me there's a system update available, but kept failing "script assert failed" when I tried to use to online update option. BIG surprise, there IS no 4.3 update available for bell y530's on Huawei OR bell websites. After DAYS of Googling, I found a copy, though. (Doncha just LOVE the Internet?) I thought I'd upload it here if anybody else is having the same issue.

NB this is a COMPLETE update, you WILL need to root again, and backup your /data partition somewhere else. This thread has rooting instructions, search for them.

You need:

Unlocked Bootloader (not sure if necessary, but it's the FIRST thing I did with this device, search here on XDA, there's a thread.

Stock Recovery, link here: http://goo.gl/sO14WF

(flsh with fastboot, fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

/dload/update.app, link here: http://goo.gl/czgkq9 (Google Drive)

extract dload.rar to the root of your sdcard (EG X:/dload/update.app) or extract to your PC and copy/paste to /sdcard/dload/update.app.

Method 1) Android GUI: (didn't work for me, script assert failure) goto settings-->all-->about phone-->system update-->local update-->confim. Phone should reboot, apply update, and reboot again.

Method 2) Recovery(also failed for me, script assert again) power off phone, hold Vol- AND power. Update should proceed, phone reboots.

Method 3) (WORKED for me) power off phone, hold Vol+ AND Vol- AND power (force update mode) Update should proceed, Phone reboots, now has Android 4.3.

I have a complete stock recovery of 4.3 available to anyone who wants it, PM for link.

ALSO, if anyone has a solution to the sdcard issue, I'd LOVE to hear it, half my apps (specially root browers) won't read/write to/from either internal or external sdcard. But some will, I can use Play Music or VLC Beta to delete music files from my sdcard(s) but Jrummy's Root Browser can do nothing TO them. It CAN move from /system to /data, or to /cust, just NOT to/from sdcard(s) /storage/sdcard# folder exists, but I must mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 to it manually. Sometimes. Sometimes it's there. Fixing permissions just changes the issue somehow, but I'm NOT a Developer, just a knowledgeable user, so IDK HOW/what it changes, nor WTF is really goin on. Changing default storage to external sd in settings ALSO changes the issue somehow, but doesn't REALLY fix anything.

Hello everyone

I want to say many thanks to all of you who have contributed to this forum. I appriciate mostly the big effort many of you put here, to help others. I started this thread in order to help others, as well as to find some solutions for myself. I'm very proud of what this thread has become. You all restored my faith in people :)

With all these posts, I was abble to root my Huawei :)

But still, I didn't got an answer to my problem, even though I think it is close.

What I'm looking for is: Is there a way that flashing a new ROM will override my sim block?

I tried to unlock my phone by purchasing the codes, and I got correct codes, but problem was that I didn't know in what order are they to be input. So I started with one that is for reseting all others and by that I locked my phone for any SIM card :( (I didn't know which one is for what).

Does anyone know how and will this be resolved by flashing new rom, or is there different solution for this? My phone remains useless untill this can be fixed.

Hi PieroV!

1) thanks, I did not know that about that distinction! what should I see?

2) Power+Up+Down gives me the same android logo but on a black background and the text "check sd update pkg is exist...", "make sure usb calbe has been inserted!", "usb update starting..."

3) adb reboot recovery gives me "Android system recovery <3e>" and a menu that looks a bit like CWM over a black screen and a "dead android" logo

Is this right? It looks different from the CWM menu I see with fastboot boot recovery.img

Yes, you are right, it's stock recovery.

You should see the CWM you have seen with fastboot boot.

Are you sure that you have unlocked successfully?

Rootgenius & Kinguser

Hello all,

Thanks to this thread I was able to unlock the bootloader of my Y530. The rooting went fine with this -- well it seems one can't post links in the first 10 posts...--(German!) thread. ( google: "android-hilfe.de/huawei-ascend-y530-forum/622879-anleitung-zum-flashen-des-huawei-ascend-y530-per-fastboot-rooten-fixen.html" )

Anyway, the site and some other people recommend / advise to replace Kinguser (which comes with Rootgenius) with SuperSU. Although on this phone this results in apps not being able to write to SDcard, as mentioned by others.

Whats the deal with Kinguser? Is it spyware? It runs continuously in the background, so that's at least undesirable, and I would also trust SuperSU more myself, but it's apparantly the only way at this moment to have a functioning Y530 with root?

Thanks for any thought / advice in advance.

Y530-b188-U051 system languages

Spent days reading this thread and have learned a lot. You guys are another level.

I bought the Y530 (b188-U051) as a gift for a spanish friend...unfortunately the system setup is only english or french.

I realize this phone's ROM was set up that way for the big phone companies here in Canada, but not sure why they would limit the system language

to just english or french when there are so many other cultures here. Anyway...

I've managed to unlock the bootloader and am prepared to root the phone if needed, but before I jump off this cliff, I just want

to check with the brains here that I can even install latin america spanish via another ROM or even without.

I can't be the only one that has wanted to do this, but the phone is new enough that googling hasn't given me a straight answer (or the answer I'm hoping for).

Is it doable? :rolleyes:

thanks
