[MENTION=5914399]himister[/MENTION]: Thanks, I did see that.

[MENTION=5232707]CENTSOARER[/MENTION]: Is it possible to get a CWM of your latest modded firmware without the launcher and UI changes? Or, barring that, can you tell me the best/easiest way to remove them.
[General Questions and Answers] :
It comes with an easy to use system/user app changer. What you don't like you can convert to user app and remove as any other app. Don't like the theme? You can use another thru themes app. Don't like Huawei themes in general? You can disable them in build.prop changing ro.config.hwtheme value to 0.

It may seem too obvious, but don't uninstall the launcher if you do not have other installed, unless you would like to deal with adb.
[General Questions and Answers] DJDucksta:
I use ES File explorer to move apps between system and user.

I have already changed out the launcher and a few other apps including the camera and torch.

I keep having problems when trying to move multiling o keyboard tho. The apk moves as it should (cut from /data/apps and paste to /system/apps) and i set the permisions as usual but upon trying to launch the keyboard doesnt launch and an error appears (i forget what it says as i have removed it for the time being)

Anyone come across this issue and maybe have a remedy? I could use adb but both of my computers are out of action at the moment.

[General Questions and Answers] :
I have been testing for a week the impact in performance and battery life of disabling MPDecision in our Y530. In short MPDecision is a binary which dynamically turns off the unneeded cores of our phone, i.e. a CPU hotplug implementation. As I said before it does make a lot of sense when you have several cores, but for a dual core, I am afraid it is better to disable it, because having it running all the time occupies considerable CPU power.

As an opinion, having MPDecision disabled is good when you use your phone actively and should not be disabled if you use it basicly for phone calls and ocassional messages.

Anyway, if you want to turn MPDecision off, just rename the /system/bin/mpdecision file to any other name, to revert disabling MPDecision just restore the original name. You will also get more control of your CPU cores to tweak with tools like setCPU or Kernel Adiutor.

Error Update Huawei Y530-U00

Hello. I apologize for my English not too good.

I have a Huawei phone Y530-U00 bought from Telekom Romania. It worked very well until one day when I wanted to get rid of Telekom logo and I installed an Update file downloaded off the net.

This file to install and after restart I noticed that I haven't gotten rid of that logo but I stayed and Panel reviews, and sometimes even though I have full signal and mains, I call appears as if my phone would be closed.

He disappeared from the menu option where I could set the phone on 2 g or 3 g and can not change themes as I could do before.

Since then I downloaded off the net a lot of firmware for this phone but all I get the error below.

checking sd update pkg.....
file:/sdcard/dload/update.app.size 1352722420
oemsbl version list check error!
0* ,write data error
Error:SD card update failure,SD card update abort !

Error!

Mention that the bootloader is unlocked and the phone has root.

I really don't know what to do and that's why I need your help. It's a good phone and I do not want to give up he.

I found on net some backups but none does not work as it should be.

My desire would be to install an official version or to me has anyone have a back-up to be cumpatibil with my phone.

I tried the official versions but does not work

[General Questions and Answers] :
I do not think he will go on with this project. I have found some post in which he writes in past tense about it. Some other guy went to facebook's Huawei G6 Development group announcing he was gonna try hard to port CM11 to the G6 L11 and messi answered with this discouraging tone. I hope it is just my imagination or these problems arising when all people makes their best effort to write everything in english with partial success, but in github there is no activity as well. Maybe a donation could encourage him further.

Hlw everyone....

Dear Devs,I used huawei ascend Y530 for 10 months.At the time of buying my mobile comes with B181 firmware.And I easily manage to root it via using towelroot without bootloader unlock.

After some day,I upgraded my firmware with B512 firmware & I lost my root facility.After upgrading to B512 I tried so many times to root it by using towelroot,VRoot and iRoot but I failed and failed.Really I am tired of it.

I have got the bootloader unlock code but I cannot manage to unlock my bootloader.

Kindly anyone tell me the exact way of rooting it(B512) without bootloader unlock.

Thanks.

Yes, I know this, but as I have understood he had another commit to do to his GitHub tree...

It seems he hasn't done it, so we'll have to resume work from what we have.

As regards device and vendor tree, mine have some problems, which have been solved by Messi, but last version of his trees reboots after two minutes and I've had problems starting ADB.

As regards kernel, we both have been using my kernel tree, which is based on Huawei official for Kitkat.

There are some trees by EloYGomeZ, but he they are based on Jelly Bean and we asked him some details, but he never replied to us...

Guys i installed the b515v3 and is very fast and so beatiful with lollipop UI,today i installed xposed 2.5.1 and gravity box and the lollipop UI disappeared,can anyone explain me why?
[General Questions and Answers] :
They are conflicting. Gravity Box's UI mods along with Huawei themes touch the same files. The lollypop UI is only a default Huawei theme. In the end, if you want both, you need to mod framework-res and SystemUI and HwToolBox apks to make Gravity Box work on top of the lollypop UI.

Here is a guide to test and flash CWM. It assumes you already unlocked your phone's bootloader. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=56587023

About how to know firmware version you need to read it on System settings, About the phone. We only use the last four letters añd numbers to describe it.

I would reccomend to you to visit the wiki page for this Y530 here at xda. It will help you a lot.

[MENTION=6527846]Diesell33[/MENTION] How did you try to restore your Play Store?

I think you need to wipe cache and dalvik cache from CWM and delete Play Services too, before you try to reinstall it.

I purchased BlackPlayer EX, but I wouldn't say is light in no manner. I tend to use Vanilla Player in modded firmwares because it just works, it has a simple interface (kind of Holo though), but more important for me is it works with simple scrobbler, quick lyrics and DSP manager. All in about 1 MB apk.

Hikiplayer is too basic for my taste, I used to use it with a 192 MB RAM Android Gingerbread and there it was performing great, but we can use something better with Y530. The ported MIUI player is a very good option too. If you don't want complications you may like AIMP. If the folder management paradigm is important to you, maybe MortPlayer can give you some more options though it is as good as it is because has been discontinued.

Stock Android players are minimal and well designed too compatible for a lot of things, there is one updated version in Fdroid.

Complete music managers that I follow and have a real free version are BlackPlayer, Fusion Player and Rocket Player.

*I followed your tutorial (every single step), tested the recovery mode and then I tried to backup but gave error, then i tried to install it permanently but it failed..
[General Questions and Answers] :
Well, it seems all OK. When you tested what happened? Did CWM boot? If it did, the error was while backing up?

I assumed your bootloader was unlocked, is it? If it is so and you are rooted, you can try flashing with Nandroid Manager, as the wiki page suggests as an alternative method.
[General Questions and Answers] ronaldo.perez1234:
Hum.. im not sure what error it was exactly, but i think it was something like this: "backup image failed to save".

The Nandroid Manager method is 100% safe? On the wiki page say that i have to flash "recoveryXYZ.img".. now my question is: can i use the other file "recovery.img"?

Well, nothing is 100% safe. I have not seen hard bricks trying this method and if something goes really bad, we can try to fix it with fastboot, restoring a stock recovery. But it is your call.

[General Questions and Answers] :
I have been searching the whole morning for a workaround or fix for this Android vulnerability which could be the worst in Android history and has been published yesterday. The vulnerability has been patched by Android in source code, CM11 to CM12.1 have been patched recently, so any build made until now should be rebuilt. For us, this is a nightmare, because is more likely that Huawei won't patch the issue.

The issue: stagefright, a sort of optimizer of media content that can give up your phone in the moment it helps to play a malicious media file, you don't even to tap play or open, because stagefright acts before you do it, the malicious file can come from the internet, like a stream, or from a contact, like a MMS.

The fix: source code is patched in Android 2.3+ now, but our firmware compilations were made before this, so we are affected. The only workaround I've found is to disable stagefright from build.prop, so:

1) Backup your /system/build.prop file.

2) Edit your /system/build.prop file to false in all stagefright configurations.

3) Save and reboot.

In my experience it is a safe edit this one, but some other guys are claiming there is a performance penalty while playing media and video games. I am gonna wait to upload a fixed modded firmware if there comes a fix for stagefright that does not involve deactivation, in the meantime I really encourage you to deactivate stagefright as described. I'll be around if you have any questions that I could answer.

with nandroid? I tried 5 minutes ago and it failed..

(U00 - B512)
[General Questions and Answers] :
You just did an incomplete backup, so, it is working. Nandroid Manager can detect it because it is inside clockwork/backup folder, but probably is still incomplete. You can delete the date named folder. There are three "levels" you can boot, normal mode, recovery mode and fastboot mode. Fastboot is the deepest level and you should try to keep away from this mode once you have CWM running.

The fact you have a folder backup means it works. Now you can try to delete files to make space for a complete backup, additionally you can go to CWM's backups and storage menu and choose tar+gz as default backup format, this will further compress your backup.

Juro, Piero says it is related with some superSU security issues. Long story short, try exchanging superSU with Kinguser.
