I've tried to compare the unlock code with my actual one, but it didn't work to me, it didn't accept my S/N, so I padded it with zeroes, and it didn't work again...

How do you find a 16 digits S/N?
[General Questions and Answers] jehemera:
huawei y530

it did work but now screen dont turn off, power button dont work to turn screen off. hmm any help?

edit: sry it was my fault, maybe i deleted too much system apps. i restored only system partition and everything works now. tks
[General Questions and Answers] Jagg Jazz:
The S/N needed is under the battery (16digits), not the one given by Android (12digits).
[General Questions and Answers] PieroV:
I copied from my old mail, the one which they accepted and it was 11 digits...

However I have a problem with CENTSOARER's ROM: it seems like the phone disconnects and doesn't receive WhatsApp messages until I don't open the app, or it disconnects from Whatsapp Web.

It didn't happen with LG L9 (same network), so I think it's the firmware of Y530. I haven't installed any battery save app or similar, do you have any clues?

EDIT: you are right, I've sent the wrong serial number that time.... Which means that S/N isn't needed :D
[General Questions and Answers] Jagg Jazz:
LOL. Huawei should update that page to stop having all the people sending emails. They only answer when they want anyway...

About the WhatsApp problem, I have the same problem on the stock rom sometimes, even on some other Huawei smartphone.
[General Questions and Answers] PieroV:
Well, I don't think sending an email (just one time) is a great deal.

However I've very very very good news: this morning I've found a G630 building of CM11 and I've tried to install on ours.

It works. Well, sort of.

Mobile network: works (3G included, I could surf the internet)

SMS: work

Calls: can call, but no audio

Lock/unlock and buttons: work

LED: works

Audio: no calls audio, but ringtone does work, recorder works

Buttons: work

Camera: there isn't the app, and flash does not work, so I think it does not work

Storage: works

Rotation: does not work

There is a problem: G630 has HD ready resolution, whereas ours is 800x480. It works, but there are smaller characters and I don't understand if there is a continuos downsize of monitor output (so usage of CPU/GPU, but frequence is 300MHz usually).

There is another problem: why their build works whereas mine (based on G630) doesn't? :D

So, is this CM ready? It depends: do you need WiFi and calls. I personally need this features, whereas I can live without camera...

Now, how to get it?

Download the ROM from here: https://www.facebook.com/huaweig630mexico

Open the zip and open the file /META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script.

Change the first line to:

assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "y530" ||

Then save it, put in the root of your SD Card (actually any directory on SD is ok), then go to CWM, do a factory reset and chose install zip, chose the file of CM and then install it. After that enjoy Cyanogenmod 11. :D

EDIT: Screenshot is 854x480m so chars are small on theri owns...

And I have a bad news: the guy who was working on G630 and built this ROM has sold his G630: http://actualizatumovil.com/Temas-Me-Despido-con-mucha-tristeza-del-G630

My target is now understanding why my builds have boot animation loop and then understand how to make calls possible...
[General Questions and Answers] acompres:
Those are extremely good news, can't wait to see the results! :D. In the meantime, is there anyway to "Stock-ify" our roms? Huawei's take on many things in this rom are growing to be very annoying, for example: the recent apps interface.

Did you try downloading it from Aptoide (htcsense store)? The first time that I got ram expander in Google I had an error whenever I tried to open it, but the version that Aptoide has works well for me.

Make sure you have unknown sources installation activated. Try searching for the leftover folder of the app and delete it manually. Also try wiping dalvik cache.

Hi all,

I have B183 version Y530 phone, recently it has got boot issues.

I have wiped data and cache in recovery but the phone doesnt boot up.

Huawei logo shows up which is followed by a black screen with android written in centre and it keeps that way until I have to manually pull out battery.

Once in a day it boots up occasionally but cant do much as it restart itself and goes into this boot loop.

Please help me with this issue.

is my firmware corrupt or something?

How can I flash stock firmware again? Or any other method?

Hi Piero,

I'm italian as you. I tried to search to all thread but I'm a bit confused. Please can you tell me what is the best way to root this phone without loosing internal memory if it's possible. I already obtained the unlook code by Huaweii for the bootloader, but I'm still waiting to understand the correct way to root this phone. (With y300 it was so easy :crying:)
[General Questions and Answers] PieroV:
Hi, you have to use root genius.

Firstly you enable developer options (settings, info, push on serial number seven times), then enable USB debug, and then follow root genius instructions.

When I've rooted the first time my bootloader was locked (B189 firmware).

(Italian translation: ciao, devi usare root genius. Prima abiliti le opzioni sviluppatore, andando su impostazioni, info sul telefono, numero di serie, lo devi premere 7 volte, dopodiché dalle impostazioni sviluppatore abiliti USB debug, quindi segui le istruzioni di root genius. La prima volta che ho fatto il root, con il firmware B189, il mio bootloader era bloccato.)
[General Questions and Answers] dottbarbi:
Hi, thanks for your replay-

So, with root genius I was able to root without loosing internal memory?

I think that it's better to unlock bootloader first, isn'it it?

What kind of serial number does root genoius ask for, IMEI?

Thanks in advance.
[General Questions and Answers] BarrackaN:
Did you try kingo root... and mosty root genius. Actually root genius works on most huaweis.... it worked on my y220, y300 and g600.
[General Questions and Answers] PieroV:
Root Genius doesn't ask for anything.

Don't unlock bootloader, or you'll lose your data.

If root genius doesn't work (or you don't want to use it), I've just rembered CENTSOARER's most favourite way to root: towelroot and then push kinguser apk.

First you unlock root temporarily with Towelroot (tolweroot.com, press on lambda, install the apk and then press make it rain), then you copy the kingroot apk in /system/apps, using any file manager capable of using root privileges or adb push.

I actually don't know where to find Kinguser apk, but I think that you could find it on google or in any CENTSOARER's rom (rename system.tar.a to system.tar and then you'll be able to use it as an archive)...
[General Questions and Answers] dottbarbi:
I know that unlocking bootloader it reset data.

Hey Cent, can you please tell me the specific configuration you use in extremebeats and ponqualizer? I want a better sound but I don't know many things about that.
[General Questions and Answers] :
It depends a lot on your headphones, but I have various profiles that you can just load from menu. I am attaching my Viper4Android folder, please wipe all data in Ponqualizer, then in internal storage, if present, delete the Viper4Android folder. After this, just extract my Viper4Android folder into your internal storage.

Then go to Ponqualizer and using menu option "Load an audio profile" and select one of those. I tweaked the myperfectbeat and smartassbeat, extremebeats team put together the other ones. Hope this works.

Why would you install a CM11 for a G630 on a Y530? If I may ask :)
[General Questions and Answers] Lycris11:
CM11 of g630 is working, few things not working and it look pretty good, soonly i hope cm11 of y530 will arrive :)
[General Questions and Answers] PieroV:
Hi, did you wipe/factory reset? And did you change the file to make it installable on Y530?

Can you attach me a log, please?

Because it works... G630 has MSM8212, whereas Y530 has MSM8210, so the only difference is that 8212 is quad core, 8210 dual core, but they're snapdragon 200, so the rest of the SoC hardware is the same...

Other hardware is different (touch screen, RAM), but very similar, so Huawei didn't create two firmwares, especially two kernels: they did the work once to be compatible with both, then I don't know if UI is the same, but once you have the hardware compatibility you can use any UI.

I have personally tried the G630 CM11 and it works better than all my builds, but WiFi doesn't work and calls can be made, but you won't hear anything and the person you've called won't listen anything too...
[General Questions and Answers] japstar:

If you can't chose please check for line termination: it must be newline (or \n), not carriage return and newline (\r\n)...

Has anyone find the way to change the OEMSBL_VER.img and OEMSBL_VERLIST.img?

Because this is the only way that we can really downgrade, upgrade and reflash all partition with stock recovery otherwise we just change SYSTEM.img.
[General Questions and Answers] :
Forget it. My guess was wrong. Seems like is a complicayed procedure involving backing up IMEI (modem.img???). Others say you can install any firmware from internal sdcard with dload folder AND without external sdcard inside the phone, but I don't think I know a firmware which is lesser than 1 GB that can fit in internal sdcard.

There is a method which involves a so called middle package. But it is devoce specific and I don't think there is a "middle package" for Y530 right now. Any news please report back.

Hi guys, since I've some problems with G630 CM 11 building, I've tried again the working build.

I have a theory about calls: I think that it has problems with SIM managing.

Here's some clue:

* it can't read SIM contacts

* it can't read the carrier (see the attached images... the black line is to delete my position, because yes, GPS is working and very well :) )

* I've tried to use BT audio gateway and there were some sounds like interferences, but since I've never had before I think that they were sent by bluetooth, however there was not voice

So, can someone of you please try G630 CM11?

Link: https://ega.co.nz/#!UsgRUDQZ!RAEOWtaHDWcPD3x3hUdI0Vd-cFKSKd2PdZ4vRAxRPMs

Download it and then change the first line of META-INF/com/google/android/update-script to make it compatible with Y530.

You can use any text editor to do it, as long it supports saving with newline only as line ending (yes: newline, \n, Unix/Linux format, etc... No: carriage return, carriage return and newline, \r, \r\n, Windows format or Mac OS 8/9/classic format).

I need you to check if you can read your SIM contacts (if you have any) and the carrier.
