Root successful Huawei Ascend G630! (I sure hope so)

Hi guys, I rooted this phone (Huawei Ascend G630-U251V100R001C00B126) with Custom Version CUSTC56D001 and kernel version 3.4.0+ using the app kingoroot; alongwith ClockWorkMod and Link2SD. The only reason I did so was because the internal memory is absolutely low (4GB, of which about 3GB is system files, and only 350MB available for apps!). Makes this phone kinda redundant unrooted because it has this HD screen and 1.2Gig Quad-core and stuff; and then you realize you can't play high-end games at all cuz it refuses to install them.

I partitioned my SD card (a humble 8GB) using MiniTool on my computer, and it is now able to transfer all newly installed apps directly to my SD card -- post installation! Which means I still cannot install apps larger than 200MB (sometimes not even that) since it installs them to the internal memory first and then transfers. Is there any way I can install directly to the SD card, bypassing the internal memory altogether? Or is there any way I can dump my entire system to my SD card to free up space in the internal memory?

I am as amateur to this stuff as they get (I'm practically a virgin in this sense! and considering this is the first device I have ever rooted, I think it wasn't that bad). Also, trying to find custom ROMs for this phone is worse than looking for a needle in a haystack.

Any help in these matters would be highly appreciated! Thanking you guys in advance for your time.

Cheers!

P.S. - that link which promises Android 5.0 on Huawei Ascend G630 looks very enticing, but pretty fake. I personally detest giving my credit card details to random untrustworthy sites.

P.P.S. - I cannot understand a word on the actualizatumovil site :silly: Please help :o :o

To fix your app problem you could try and go into settings and find the storage menu where there is an option to change the default storage location from Internal to SD. You can then use Link2SD to remove bloatware and link apps from internal memory.

As for Roms it seems all the lollipop ones are fake and there is currently only 1 ROM of the actuali forum but it is just a minor revision on our current one.

Please Help - Kinguser and Root Genius

Could someone please tell me where I could find a safe download link for Kinguser and Root Genius, there seems to be malware everywhere
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] putzi168:
RootGenius do not work on G630.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slavenvrhovac:
Towelroot will root your phone, but u will lose access to internal memory. To gain access u can Fully Unroot with SuperSU. SuperaSU has that option in settings. Thare is not perfect solution jet for ****ing Huawei g630.

I got one and ot pisses me off when i connectvit to a tv via usb. It lest acces to internal srorage and unmounts sd card. I cant watch Full HD MOVIES because the luck of the internal memory. Thare is even 1GB HD movies and it cant be transfered to internal momory because thare is no SPACE. Only if i could update it to KITKAT the preblem is solved. But we still cant.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StillAndroid:
Thanks for the replies. Yea I tried Root Genius yesterday and it wouldn't connect.

My problem is that with SuperSu is that after reboot my Link2SD and Titanium Backup will not be able to write to external memory. That means that I have to unrrot and reroot every time I reboot.

So as [MENTION=2023388]putzi168[/MENTION] said I was gonna try Kinguser but I need to find a safe source for the APK
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slavenvrhovac:
My advice is to ue stock firmware and everything stock until someone reliced something that is workinglike CM11 for g630
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StillAndroid:
Yea, I'm definitely looking forward to some custom Roms for this phone.

What SuperUser program do you use on your phone currently? Because I never connect my phone to a TV so that wouldn't be a problem for me.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slavenvrhovac:
Like i said. I unrooter it with supersu. Do not update it! And i unrooted and uninstaled supersu. Teied many oter things, and stock is best for now.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mano2:
Do you think there is any chance that the Ascend G630 will receive the KitKat update?

I'm thinking of writing to Huawei officials about this but first I'm trying my luck here maybe someone alread asked.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StillAndroid:
On the Actuliza forums there were rumours that it would get the KitKat update. However, I am doubtful as Huawei never really seem to have any kind of update support for their devices.

It would be great to hear what Huawei have to say, so best of luck and hopefully they will give you the reply we are hoping for :D
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mano2:
Thank you for the information. :)

I will try my luck then.

Somewhere I read that the KitKat and other updates are not possible because of the internal storage is not enough. I hope it's just a fiction and someday maybe we can try a KitKat or a Lollipop based ROM. :)

How did you get your unlock bootloader code from Huawei? Can you tell me please? I also want to unlock my bootloader to root my device. I've mailed all my device details including imei, product id, serial number and device model which is G630-u10 at mobile@huawei.com and mobile@mail01.huawei.com 6 days ago, but I've not got any response from them yet.

Changing layout

Hi I'm using Nova launcher (paid version, BTW) on my phone till someone releases a custom ROM for this phone. The layout is beautiful, the home screen pretty much does what I want it to in daily use. Thank you [MENTION=245403]still[/MENTION]_Android for your suggestion, I tried what you said, and realised I can simply move apps through the native apps2sd (not all the files, but it seems enough for now), as Link2Sd isn't working so well on this phone (it kills the application every time I try to set default storage value through the app).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peka80:
Just an info,

I read from that Spanish site that someone asked Huawei Support on twitter and they replied they there's an update work for G630 and it's a Lollipop! :D They don't know exact date or time when it'll be, but suggested for us to follow download site for updates!

It maid me happy that it's going to be Lollipop! Hope for soon update! :good:

You can find firmware on Huawei G630 supurt website.

I instaled custom recovery and i was able to ise it, but one day i could not enter it because i did not match my phone version.

So thare is an app called huawei firmware update.app extractor

Thare it extracted stock recovery. And i flashed bcak stock recovery. And than was able to install stock firmware.

On youtube is a video tutrual how to extrackt stock firmware.

Why is this phone soo diferent from other phones. Before Huawei G630 i had Huawei Y300. You could do whit Y300 what ever you wanted. But whit g630 everiting is special, and different.

I wish i didnt buy g630.

I feel cheated by Huawie mnufacturer.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StillAndroid:
Glad to hear I could help. I also use Nova Prime and it is a massive improvement over the stock Huawei Launcher :good: . I did get Link2SD working for a while but it stops working everytime I reboot and then I have to re-root again and its not worth the Hassel.

Could you please link me to where they said this, I am very interested to see any news about any updates.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niranjan.bhatia:
I've also lost access to internal memory after unlocking bootloader and using towelroot. Why towelroot is causing this problem? When I do full unroot by supersu, I can gain access to my internal memory again. Any solution?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StillAndroid:
Its not Towelroots Fault I believe. Its more dependant on the Superuser, if you root with towelroot and make sure that you do not restart or update your SuperSu binaries it will work until your next reboot.

.

However, if you go to this forum http://actualizatumovil.com/Foro-Huawei-G630 and use google translate, I believe they have a way of rooting thought a custom recovery which is more reliable.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slavenvrhovac:
That is solution. You made it back as is was.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slavenvrhovac:
I tried it. It is not stable. I was able to access that custom recovery CMW cuple of times and i lost access. I DIDNT TRY TWRP recovery.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niranjan.bhatia:
I've found out by root explorer that there is the permissions problem to the internal memory. I tried to fix permissions of internal memory just like my mmc, but it wasn't successful.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StillAndroid:
Yes it is a problem with the permissions but you cannot fix it with root explorer.

Unless you can fix it through a custom recovery there is currently no solution to your problem. We may have to wait for an update or a custom ROM before root is stable on this phone.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tarinka:

I've also flashed twrp recovery img file through flashify successfully, and tried to fix permissions in twrp, but still no luck.:(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slavenvrhovac:
Thera are alot of versions of TWRP recoveries. One version is made for cuple of android phones. But nobody made full compatitible version for huawei g630.

For example on all phones i had, you could thake the battery out, but on G630 you cant. Thare must be reason why. Maby because of some hardwares, those hardvares need drivers and those drivers need OS to funkcion. This phone is different in many ways.

THIS IS JUST THE WAY I AM THINKING !!!

I AM NOT DEVELOPER !!!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niranjan.bhatia:
Finally, I've got the solution of my problem of "no access to internal memory", the problem is with supersu binaries, I just removed them and flashed kinguser zip file through twrp. Now I've my rooted Huawei G30-U10 and no loss of access to internal memory. I did back up of my kernel and stock recovery through flashify before flashing twrp through flashify, in case if I ever need in future, also I've backed up my IMEI through 5iromtoolbox if anything bad happens to my IMEI.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JMailuhu:
Hi i haven't been on xda for almost a year!

IIRC i rooted with vROOT and i unlocked the bootloader through huawei's unlocking service, and S-OFF with Revolutionary (<- Not sure if i mix this up with my old HTC Desire)

The roms you can use for the G630 are the same custom roms the G530 uses. If memory serves, i believe i used the ParanoidAndroid and Beanstalk 4.4 rom from the G530 and it worked perfectly on the G630.

The thing is, I can change everything on root folders (permissions, copy, delete...), it works just fine, no problems. But once I try to copy some files from Internal/SDcard to root folders I get error message. Root Explorer even force close.

I looked in SuperSu logo and it says "SuperSU Pro is required for this feature" for Root Explorer to copy files or change permissions!

Then when I startup device, I can change with Root Explorer those files permissions. And yes, I do have R/W access to files on Internal and SDCard. No problem there, only when I have to copy files from them to any root folder! Weird.
