Huh? What problem do you have there?

Did you follow exactly my guide on post #6 to root? "Using Custom Recovery: Root & Install SuperSU with TWRP"

Rooting in recovery has nothing to do with vulnerable, when you're in custom recovery you have full control over the file system, we don't need exploit.

Make sure you get the 'Successful' text, exactly like the screenshot provided in the guide, this is the easiest way to root, 100% works.

Hi, I have the same experience as xperia_rebel by following the same step as his and encounter soft brick after did an OTA update after flashed the 4.7.1 Chinese Developer ROM. I did the same thing by sending back to service center and got a new one. LUCKY ME!:victory:

After got the new replacement set, I have tried again following the previous steps (not your guide), and now on the latest kit kat 4.8.1 ROM. I have a few question as follow, hope to get some guide from you, as I now have very careful on every update I do, don't think the service center will replace the phone for me the second time. :p

1. Is my phone now still remain unlocked? (BTW, my phone is Malaysia version)

2. Can I follow your guide to unlocked it, since I am already on 4.8.1 ROM?

3. You mentioned not need to send back to service center even I have soft bricked it after doing the OTA, may I know what is the steps to recover it?

4. Your answer to xperia_rebel question 2, saying we can do OTA, no need update.app, I presume you mean it is for unlocked phone, right? coz I did it before, that is why I got my phone bricked.

5. Now I am on 4.8.1 ROM, can I flash the recovery rom and get Root privilege? If yes, I just have to follow your guide, right? DO I need to unlocked the phone first?

6. I saw the possible for Honor 3C to get USB OTG function somewhere in a thread, can recall where, is this true?

Thank you for your sharing.
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] xperia_rebel:
The OTG concept is a myth!

It's failing

Kernel needs some tweaking :D

Planning on cooking a Rom

Just to enable widgets on the lock screen!!! And have a 2g/3g switch

[MENTION=4893922]codelover[/MENTION] can we add widgets like

Hi Codelover, I am using B255 now,yesterday I received a OTA update B256 which is only 27 MB in size but I am unable to update with that file.Can you please help?

Also please help me for TWRP Live recovery for EMUI 3.0
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] codelover:
Sorry guys, been busy lately with other projects, i will not able to answer question on daily basis.

Meanwhile, vmall forum moderator already replied user that update for international set 'will be announced soon' on their fb/site.

Those planning to unlock the device now might want to reconsider, perhaps you should wait for another week.

Explain "failed". Did you follow THIS steps? Since LewaOS is JB you will need to flash VersionJumper_JB too.

Could be a fake 3C with MT6572... Try flash just 'preloader' and/or try with other version of SPFT.

Try connect while pressing buttons, try different key combinations, with & without battery.

If nothing work, then your only option is to disassemble the phone & find the testpoint, or send back to warranty.

Your device thread is HERE, you can find TWRP optimized for 3X HERE.

However you will need to the unlock bootloader first, please search on the thread for post about unlocking bootloader.

I am not sure you mean by 'root lost', please provide more detail about what you did that caused that situation.

You can flash SuperSU & FullRootHelper to gain root again at anytime, as simple as that, but please read the consequence.

Did you restore stock recovery before updating?

LiveTWRP no longer works on new EMUI, but you can try to apply the following patch, flash with SPFT, let me know how it goes later.

Which is 'this'? Please check & read first post about different variants of Honor 3C.

[Settings] -> [All] -> [About phone] -> [Build number], compare your 'build number' with the one in OP.

Try flash just 'preloader' and/or try with other version of SPFT.

Try connect while pressing buttons, try different key combinations, with & without battery.

If nothing work, then your only option is to disassemble the phone & find the testpoint, or send back to warranty.

What do we have to do to lock the boot loader ?

Since International update is coming very soon !!

Please tell us a elaborate and clear answer focussing on the international version only

Hi codelover, thanks. I didn't followed that guide. I was following another guide which doesn't involving version jumper thingy.

Anyway on B251 I can't find Wi-Fi Display option under Display Settings, so I use this app to open it. And GOD, Wi-Fi display rendered correctly on B251, unlike on JB B113.

- Bootloader Status: I think unlocked, but I'm not sure.

- Current Status: Starts normaly

- Problem/Question: I have no IMEI and I wanna flash the fix. But the Live TWRP Recovery doesn't work and if i wanna flash a TWRP with SP Flash Tool there is a failure.

Do you have any ideas?

Edit:

Here is a picture:
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] codelover:
All B1XX from huaweidevice can be considered as stock, and why would you relock just to upgrade, i don't think it's necessary.

I am optimistic about the update, if they provide the complete UPDATE.app then everything will very easy to handle,

but for sure, if they really provide update, everyone will be able to upgrade, no one will be left behind, there are just too many way to do it.

It's still too early to discuss this now, we shall wait for the actual update then we can talk about this later.

If i am not mistaken there will be a log generated in sdcard when you perform the upgrade, i will need that log to see what went wrong.

I do not have the device now (returned to the real owner), so i can't check anything related to EMUI 2.3/3.0.

Hi there, make sure you are using SP FlashTool 3.1324 that i provided, ensure VCOM driver are working, you can also try connect with battery.

Also, please check & double confirm that your phone is genuine, H30-U10 2G, not fake 3C, as flashing wrong preloader might lead to a hardbrick.

Read all the side notes & warning before you proceed, then your device will be fine.

What can I do to root ? iRoot is not workin' (it says "successful. rebooting..." but after reboot it says "no root"), so I imagine it's a blocked bootloader, can i use the same method with

[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] borgerapper:
OK, I''m back again :laugh:

I tried to install the IMEI Fix but I have still an unknown baseband and a missing IMEI.

I go to TWRP -> flash it -> reboot

What can I do now?
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] codelover:
Sorry friend, i have no idea about that version, thus it's NOT recommend to flash anything from my thread, just to be safe.

But you can still get root, you will need to use PC version of IRoot, provided that the version is 4.2 not 4.4, you can get it HERE.

After that you can replace the chinese superuser app and install SuperSU app from playstore & update the su binary when asked.

My FullRootHelper is optimized for EMUI, and some custom rom might not even rooted properly.

Another thing is, SuperSU has changed alot recently, with L updates i supposed, but seems to cause some issue with older device.

So remember always use the last STABLE build instead of the BETA build, but for sure, a fresh ROM will always work!

Usually we can get back IMEIs instantly, not sure what went wrong.

Anyway, have you created the full ROM dump? You should have created it BEFORE you flash anything to the device.

For now, i would suggest you to do a '[Factory Reset]' from TWRP [Wipe] menu, or better '[Format Data]'.

But you will lost everything, including files stored in your Internal Storage, so make sure you have created backup of your files.

You can also create another backup with TWRP, remember to change 'Storage:' to "MicroSD".

ADDED

Like i stated in OP, my guides/files/resources are for Honor 3C H30-U10

ONLY

. (Well, you did not answer my question about your version)

Make sure that you have applied ALL steps in the "Unlocking Bootloader" guide, needed if you are have International set.

Please note that the procedure should be applied IF, and

ONLY IF

you are 100% sure your device is H30-U10, or else could lead to a hardbrick.

And yes, you can try reflash EMUI 3.0, restore NVRAM partition from ROM dump if necessary. (Use dump created before you flash anything)

It should work if it's a MT6582 phone like our 3C, but there is fake 3C with MT6572 out there...

Oh well, have you try SRSRoot as the program claims your 'V100R001C432B109' is supported...

ANNOUNCEMENT

:

LOL.... B256 has been announced as 'STABLE' build for CN sets....

I think it will be pushed to International sets eventually, but don't expect it to be these few days...

Download link for B256 updated in OP.

Hey my friend,

I did two times a factory reset and i wipe data. But I still have no IMEI and no Baseband :(

I also try to flash the fix again, but it doesn't works.

Do you think, I can flash Emui 3 again? Maybe it works after that...
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] melkhatt:
Thanks for your answer.

i tried that but it's not working

- iRoot says "root complete.rebooting" and the phone reboots by himself, but at the end there's no superuser, and iroot says "no root"

-vroot reboots the phone 3 times, and i have a windows in the phone with something like "restoring data". bu at the end vroot says that " root is unsuccessful, try again" :(

[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] codelover:
What was your initial version (build number) when you first got it?

There are many ways to restore to original stock ROM, but i can't gurantee about the warranty, that's depend on the service centre.

We have ROM to relock bootloader, but you can only use it if you are 100% sure your phone is genuine 3C H30-U10 International set.

Please try to read the main page again, i have already provided a FULL ROOT guide, which should give you full access to /system.

Please read all the warnings & consequence before applying the patch.

I thought you said you installed it using another method previously, what was that?

I will need to check on the updater-script, can you provide me the file so that i can have a look?

The format code should be something like this:

format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p5", "0");

Hi, thanks for the info, i know the fix you mentioned, it's a little program written by user bjdanny, you can find him on xda too.

But for me, that would be the last resort, as the fix is not permanant, you will have to do it everytime after a factory reset / data format.

For most of us, the ModemFix worked, like i said, it will

only

work on U10 International set, and should be flashed ONLY if IMEI is missing.

If you H3C is not Intl. set and you flashed that, your IMEIs will 'gone' instead. (undetectable, not permanent gone)

I am ok as long as you don't make it looks like you make it all by yourself.

You can translate according to your own understanding, but please don't copy-paste, like some irresponsible people did.

And please do not hotlink or mirror my files/images to other forum/file host, that's all i ask.

ADDED:

Yes, it works with ALL versions of EMUI. To change build.prop without root you can also try my Build.prop Changer

For those failed OTA even restored stock recovery, please provide me the log file saved in sdcard after you did the *failed* update.

Codelover, thanks for all your posts really helpful, but I'm a bit lost.

I'm trying to upgrade to emui 3.0 without unlocking bootloader. I try with sdcard dload update and the result is imei lost. I could replace modem by hand if I could root emui 3.0, but vroot can't and I can't find any other method to root it.

Also the live twrp is not working on emui 3.0, so not possible to install the modem fix and not possible to install root.

I've tried to root original version and update using supersu with root permanent but it seems that emui update clean everthing so the root is gone.

Really difficult task update to emui 3.0 4.4.2 without unlocking bootloader (I don't want to unlock it because my phone is different international version than MY/TW so later I couldn't get back to lock state with same international version of the lock).

Hi,

I just got a Honor 3C, and I would like to flash the newest ROM I found in this thread.

I am not sure if I can first make a full backup of my ROM and then go back to it.

I still have to power the phone one, I figured I should just ask before doing anything with it :)
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] theoppositeman:
you just have to follow (read through too) Codelovers guide in Post #1 -#7.

there are many custom roms now for our H3C.

as for me im using KangVIP latest B255 Rom. great one too.

there are some great ones too like, 6Pack Rom, Dalet 11 Rom etc...

you can find it on First Page..

:)
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] codelover:
Which version of EMUI, B256? Are you sure FullRootHelper did not give you any error message?

Hmm... since this is stable release i am not surprise if they changed something to block full filesystem access.

Also, like i said before, there is a possibility that recent SuperSU updates could cause trouble to old root app, so try the old SuperSU v2.16.

I haven't have chance to try latest EMUI 3.0 myself, but if anyone can provide me adb access via teamviewer maybe i can have a look.

Anyone else can confirm this issue?

I think you messed up your files, or misunderstood the guide, as i was asking for updater-script from LewaOS 6, the one you posted was for EMUI 3.0 B251.

Also, are you sure you replaced the update-binary, as i am 100% sure that my binary

will not

display that error, i patched it to avoid that situation.

I mentioned that LewaOS updater-script is well written, so you do not need to replace the script, only the binary.

My advice, check your files and make sure you are using the correct files.

The last time i tried to update without unlocking BL, it was ok until you perform the next update, it went to a bootloop situation.

If my understanding about this is correct, you will be stuck with current version if you choose not to unlock.

I am not sure which 'different version' that you have previously, but if you are 100% sure you 3C is genuine Intl. set, then we have the solution.

AFAIK, all intl. sets are sharing the same ROM, you do not need to take the word 'MY/TW' seriously.

For now, you could try to restore B110/B115 4.2.2 stable using Force Upgrade (Refer to OP), that should give you working IMEI.

Well, you can, if you are 100% sure your set is genuine honor 3C H30-U10, few users including myself already tried that, no problem.

However, you should first read about locked/unlocked bootloader & warranty issue before you choose to continue.

If warranty is part of your concern, you should not do anything that involve flashing a file to device, i do not want to explain this again later.

P/S: Guys, please try to avoid quoting the whole post while replying, edit to relevant info only, thanks.
