Hi i've searched this board and i cannot find anything related to the Huawei Ascend G630.

Are there any methods to root and/or put a custom rom on it? The onder huawei phones used BootLoader unlock code.

Perhaps this method and/or other huawei roms (P6, G6, G610 etc..) would work on G630?

There is not many information regarding rooting or flashing this phone on the internet, so if someone has suggestions im all ears!

June 15th, 2014; Phone has been rooted successfully with vROOT.

Hey, fellow dutchman, in the spirit of the Dutch team pwning the #WC2014, here's a free rooting tip for you!

I found a way to root this phone!

Try Towelroot!!!! (it works ;) ) (google it)

HUP HOLLAND !
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JMailuhu:
Haha! Thank you for your information but i have already root my phone a few weeks back with vRoot. (Sorry for giving miss information due to lack of editing post and removing "root" from thread header, not sure if i'm even able to moderate that)

I had no clue if it would've worked out since very little to no "after-market" information is available for this phone, but it worked flawlessly on own risk.

Huawei doesn't have G630 support for it's bootloader unlocking service, and that's where the basics flashing starts, unlocking with the dc-tool didn't work as well.

Guess i'll have to wait for a developer who owns this phone, to port TPRM / CWM Recovery and (other) Huawei Roms, or build one specifically for this phone. (If one wants to put time and efforts in it that is), and find a way unlock the bootloader.

No success on MoDaCo, XDA, AndroidForums, NeedRom.com etc, for anything related to G630.

Apparently this phone isn't as populair as the P6, G6, G510, G610 were, but i'll wait, i just can't stand Huawei's bloatware and limited customization options implented in their android builds.

I think you can only install Huawei ROMs verified by Movistar (currently B126).

---------- Post added at 05:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:13 PM ----------

You can only root it, if you unlock your phone's bootloader. To do this, send az e-mail to mobile@huawei.com, with subject "unlocking bootloader G630". Send them your IMEI, then your phone's version (for example G630-U00, G630-U10, G630-U20 etc), and your S/N (serial). And you have to accept to void the warranty in the e-mail.

If your phone is SIM locked, then there's a chance you can't unlock your bootloader due to operator restrictions.

Unlocking bootloader will void your warranty.

You will get an e-mail from Huawei with a code, use it in fastboot mode, to unlock the bootloader, then install TWRP recovery, and root your phone.

sir can you tell me please what is that bootloader? if i unlock that what would be happen to my phone? is that the first thing to do before to root? or i can root my phone without unlocking bootloader? thanks sir
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danee91:
http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile...-bootloader-on-android-phones-complete-guide/

Unlocked bootloader is a condition to install a Custom Recovery, or a Custom ROM to your phone, and with one of these you can gain root acces.

You can do force upgrade methods to gain root acces with your locked(!) bootloader phone, but these processes usually cause problems around rooting procedure, or sometimes working or not working or missing SU binaries, etc.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danee91:
Set the device into fastboot mode, install fastboot drivers, and open CMD (in the path where fastboot.exe is found):

fastboot devices ---> it shows a device name, if the fastboot drivers are correctly installed (like fmgllglmym fastboot device)

If it's OK, then:

fastboot oem unlock XYZ (replace XYZ with the CODE you get from Huawei)

THEN:

fastboot reboot

G630-u10 rooted without bootoader unlock

Hello guys,

many people of you need to root there phones and still waiting to unlock code from huawei

here is a way to root your phone

you have to first unable usb debugging mode from developer option

then connect your phone with cable

download RootGenius v 1.8.7

the updated version from RootGenius doesn't root the device so you have to own that version

in the process of connecting the RootGenius will update Automatically so you have to stop that..

after connecting you click root and every thing will be fine .

you may do that until you get your bootloader unloack code and then do it with the right way .
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alephnaught:
I'm at the end of my tether with this phone - great device hardware wise but the firmware is utterly crippling and fights tooth and nail against any attempt to fix it. I've rooted mine and I'm using link2sd to keep most of my apps on the SD card, but it's unrooting itself every few boots, keeps terminating root processes and breaking the SD links, so it's not a stable solution at all. I've come to the conclusion that the only option left - besides getting a new phone - is gonna be compiling Cyanogen by hand for this device.

I found this: wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_porting_intro

It looks straightforward enough, if time-consuming, but I'm hesitant to embark on such a venture without checking around to see if there are any caveats or device-specific difficulties folks are aware of that might cause problems. Would appreciate people's thoughts!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vhristenco:
Bootloader unlocking has nothing to do with root.

If fastboot says 'waiting for device' it means that either the phone is not in bootloader mode or it doesn't have the correct drivers installed.

If available, try to unlock from a linux pc or even a mac, as these systems don't require installing huawei drivers.

Rooting from TWRP works flawless. Just hit reboot>system, then it'll ask you if you want to root.

The only quirk is that if you do this on a firmware older than B156, you'll lose access to internal memory. But you can always un-root, though.

Thanks a lot guys, I eventually unrooted to regain access to internal memory. I noticed though that Google Play store was the only able to install apps and download data, when I could not take a photo or listen to a whatsapp audio. Themes resurrected too, and that's a nice thing as they are cool! While rooted I uninstalled bloat system apps like Google+ and co. but I still can't understand why of 4GB of space users can only use less than half. My previous phone, an LG L7 P700 had 2GB declared but the experience wasn't as painful as now.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vhristenco:
Hi juan3211,

To flash a partition via fastboot, I extracted the partitions from the official update.app, then used fastboot flash <partition-name> <filename>.

As for the CRC and MD5, I never succeeded in generating the correct MD5sum for the whole package (including the modified files) as I don't have the official signing key from Huawei (and I think I never will).

In theory, you could change the OEMSVL_VERLIST file inside update.app to accept any rom version as an upgrade, but then you need to re-gen the crc and md5 for the (modified) package.

So I found it easier to just manually flash the key partitions using fastboot.

Hello everyone!

I installed the B159 firmware update two days ago but I can't see any changes. Does anyone have a changelog about it?

that would be:

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

Of course, this assumes that you have all the .img files in the current directory.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juan3211:
Ok, then we have to do this un order to flash a versión with lower number:

1. You need to download "Huawei Update Extractor" from MODACO (sorry, I cannot post links as I don't have enough posts) and the latest version of adb and fastboot for your OS.

2. Open Huawei Update Extractor, open UPDATE.APP and extract all the files inside it to a folder on your computer.

3. Connect the phone into USB Debugging Mode (vol down + power, isnt it?) and reboot into bootloader ( adb reboot bootloader ).

4. Then just flash the following partitions with fastboot, in this order: boot, cust, recovery, system, userdata. Write exactly these commands (you have img files un current directory):

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash cust cust.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

Finally, reboot into recovery (COULD YOU USE fastboot reboot recovery ???), wipe data and cache and reboot.

YOU ARE DOING THIS ON YOUR OWN RISK!

Is this ok? (I have question about debug mode and restart recovery, could you answer them?)

Regards
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vhristenco:
To put the phone into fastboot mode (step 3) you should either start it with vol- pressed or use adb reboot bootloader (not both).

And yes , to reboot into recovery mode you must use fastboot reboot recovery.
