Great! So, can i double check few things with you, just to clear out some of doubts i have with your tests.

#1) Running C432B109 > Unlock Bootloader > Flash TWRP > Full Root > Booting + IMEIs available & everything working fine? (Yes/No)

#2) Running C432B109

unlocked

> flash B108_SIGNED with SPFT > Booting + everything is OK (Yes/No ?)

#3) Running B108_SIGNED, without unlocking BL, try SD Force Upgrade to C432B109 > Booting & everyhing is OK? (Yes/No)

#4) Once reverted to C432B109, without unlocking BL, try to flash TWRP, should get SPFT error, correct? (Yes/No)

#5) Running C432B109 > Unlock BL > Try SD Force Upgrade to EMUI 3.0 > Booting > IMEI should be missing? (Yes/No)

#6) Running EMUI 3.0 (Eg: B256SP1) > Flash TWRP > Flash ModemFix > IMEI working?

#7) Redo #2 & #3 to confirm if relocking is possible & everything is working just like before, eg: Booting & IMEI working.

It's still too early to say it's 100% safe at the moment until all above tests has been made, i spent over weeks or even months just for tests without any guide.

Also, EU B109 is NEWER than B110 & B115 for Intl. set that we have, don't use our B11X or else you are downgrading instead of upgrading.

Don't worry above the cust error, both CN & Intl' firmware do not have any customized settings for EU set, same thing happen when Intl' set try to flash CN EMUI 3.0.

Usually those customized settings are some bonus apps, as well as presets for timezone, currency format, time format, local emergency number, etc,

most you can change manually under the settings menu or build.prop after you have the phone setup & running.

Thanks, the link has been available in OP for quite some time, and it's the B109 that you have now, NOT B110 as claimed by the site.
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] trol_sg:
Hi mate, lets answer everything clear:

Two phones:

Phone #1 is the old one. In this one I tried:

- Update to emui 3.0 CN set via sd card upgrade -> no imei (bootloader locked).

- Flash TWRP using flashtools -> no boot.

- After that I flashed B108_SIGNED (bootloader locked) -> worked

- After that I unlocked phone bootloader + rooted + twrp + installed custom emui 3.0 HRT/KangVip. Phone is now working, given to a friend not in my hands anymore.

Phone #2 is the new one, what I've at hands now (yesterday's tests).

-I've tried to move from C432 to C900 set, worked. Bootloader locked.

-I've tried to move from C900 to C432 set, worked. Bootloader locked.

1) Yes, no problem with that, it worked in the first phone I unlocked (this one I've now is still locked for testing purposes). I'm speaking about phone #1.

2) Yes, worked perfectly + locked bootloader again. I'm speaking about phone #1.

3) Unknown, I didn't flash b108 and tried to force upgrade to C432B109. I've to test this way.

4) Yes, Flash TWRP without unlocking bootloader will give you phone no boot.

5) Unknown, I tried this option only with bootloader locked.

6) Unknown, The same as 5, need to test, I only tried with bootloader locked.

7) Unknown, need to be tested.

So the plans for the future are:

3, 5, 6, 7) steps.

I'll give you feedback, hopefully this night.

Regards!
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] trol_sg:
Okay, so continue with the tests:

#3) Running B108_SIGNED, without unlocking BL, try SD Force Upgrade to C432B109 > Booting & everyhing is OK? (Yes/No)

- Yes, everything perfect.

#5) Running C432B109 > Unlock BL > Try SD Force Upgrade to EMUI 3.0 > Booting > IMEI should be missing?

- Yes, Imei is missing.

#6) Running EMUI 3.0 (Eg: B256SP1) > Flash TWRP > Flash ModemFix > IMEI working?

- Yes, Imei is back.

#7) Redo #2 & #3 to confirm if relocking is possible & everything is working just like before, eg: Booting & IMEI working.

- Yes, relock is back. After trying to flash TWRP I get FT message:

Int'l B115 to European B109

Thanks [MENTION=6103239]trol_sg[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4893922]codelover[/MENTION] for enlightening us on transition possibilities between Int'l and European ROMs. I just need to know if it is worthwhile to move from Int'l B115 to European B109. As it has been said, Eu B109 is newer, but are there any real benefits that we can have from this transition? Any performance improvements? Bugs removed? I'll be grateful for your observations and expert opinions.
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] trol_sg:
Nope mate,

As far as I know there's not an adventage. Our tests are focused to confirm that unlock and lock bootloader is possible for european version using international version files.

The real better choice is to unlock bootloader and update to chinese version, which is the most updated one, by the care that you can revert yoru changes and relock and put the original firmware any time you want and need, for software purposes or hardware issues and warranty.

I highly recommend unlock bootloader and update to emui 3.0 android 4.4.2. I use HRT TEAM rom (Kangvip version based on 256 stable stock rom).

Regards!
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] iconias:
As a B109 user, there aren't any bugs whatsoever! :D

Battery life if terrific, camera quality is exceptional, smooth and fast OS and an its an official ROM from great programmers at Huawei.....

Thats why I don't understand why anybody would want to change to customised ROMs with bugs and issues and poor battery life... just read the countless problems here in this and the other Honor3C XDA thread :confused:

I'll only update to an official European or International ROM 4.4.2 with EMUI3 :laugh:
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] mr.m.imran:
I agree, it's a pretty stable ROM, no doubts about it. BUT... there are a few things I'm finicky about. Take, for example, the automatic screen brightness thing. It works on your phone? may be. Doesn't work on mine. Not a hardware fault, I've checked the ambient light sensor using some apps. Then there's this "single handed UI" thing. No Sir, doesn't work on my phone. Can't be a hardware fault. You know, petty things like these., which I don't expect on a stable, official ROM.

Edited: Yes, that's the reason why I asked the question in the first place: Should I try Eu B109 or wait for Int'l 4.4... :)
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] iconias:
Auto Screen brightness works great. It would make the screen too dark in certain conditions but its easy to adjust. No problems there, saves battery life.

The single handed UI only makes the keyboard slightly smaller and shifts it to the left or right to type with one thumb. Works well, but I prefer normal because I have big hands.
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] mr.m.imran:
Here you go! Eu B109 is definitely a plus ;) But surely I won't want to have to install all the apps again for B109, and will just wait for official KK. I hope the KK upgrade, whenever available, will at least solve these small issues with my Int'l B115. Thanks for your comments and feedback, [MENTION=4312593]iconias[/MENTION]
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] codelover:
Perfect! Thanks for helping me to clear things out.

Agreed! Infact i am waiting for official 4.4.2 too, some insider news said they are already working on it, let's give them more time.

Actually the latest EMUI 3.0 will be great too if you know how to customize it, Intl. update will be based on this too, but without the chinese apps & +gapps.

Any improvement added in B115 should be included in your B109 too, as B115 was released months back before B109.

I thought the screen brightness is a joke, it doesn't work well for me either, perhaps the threshold need to be updated so it can be more sensitive.

Not sure how to do it, i am not using that auto brightness feature as i prefer to set the brightness manually.

Well, i would advice you to just stay with B109 if you can wait.

If the wait is too long or if they announce they will not push 4.4 update, then i will create my own version of EMUI 3.0 ROM.

If that is the case i will need update TWRP with patches so OTA can be applied with TWRP too, avoid the need of using SPFT to upgrade.

Let's wait for another few weeks and see how it goes, but looking at the fact that H3C is still quite new at EU, very unlikely they will abandon a new device.

We shall wait patiently & see if they really abandoned us.

[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] trol_sg:
Chinese 4.4.2 emui 3.0 is official and stable.

Much better rom by my point of view than emui 2.3.

Also, HRT developers join Huawei emui developers, it's like a game as far as I know,

So the roms are very good and stable.

---------- Post added at 11:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:35 PM ----------

BTW, if unlocked bootloader and flash original and complete chinese rom, take care because TWRP for international version won't work to install any other rom.

I've just messed with that and lost time, hehehe.

Installing custom CWM automade will work ;)

Maybe it's written somewhere, but just to let you know if not.

1) i got some exciting questions for All of you !

I'll try to answer

a) do you think we will ever get a Lolipop Update ( we means atleast the Chinese version :P )

Most likely, not. It's an entry level phone, cheap and an old one. Just getting a KitKat is good enough.

b) Do we have a Cyanogenmod waiting for our phones ?

Don't know.

c) Is there any way possible to enable OTG ??

There's no way. It's hardware limitation.

d) Did anyone notice that the International version hasnt got Updates so far and is still in B115 !!!

Everyone did. Just wait patiently, or flash the Chinese version and be happy like me.

EU set

Hello,

as I understand, all above is about international version. But I have EU ver. Is it aplicable to EU too? Espetially unlock and root?

What about roms? Can int. be flashed to EU? There are none for EU :(

thank you
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] Mormy:
Same question for me.....Any answer?? :)
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] codelover:
Well, the "somewhere" is right HERE.

If you guys read the last few posts, we have some discussions about unlocking & relocking on EU set, user trol_sg helped me to run some tests.

The answer is YES, most guides written here are also applicable to EU set, including Full Root, but make sure you guys create a proper full backup first.

Please take some time to read the guides so you won't get yourself into troubles, as well as to avoid unneccessary question. :)

I will try to write a guide about relocking for EU set soon.

The program is

NOT

suitable for you as you have H30-L02, which is not a MTK phone, to get full root on your H30-L02, do the following:

1) Unlock your bootloader using fastboot by following this guide. (written by dfahren)

2) Once unlocked, flash TWRP using fastboot according to this guide. (written by dfahren)

3) Once you flashed TWRP, boot to TWRP & flash latest UPDATE-SuperSU-*.zip

There is no way this method could fail as it has been tested by few H30-L02 owners.

EDIT: [MENTION=6279971]Acid,,[/MENTION],You can download latest SuperSU from THIS page, please refer to my Full Root guide regarding how to flash the zip.

You should just go ahead and try with the 25 bytes file, it should works too, but if it doesn't, then probably only 120 bytes file can be used.

Well, maybe i can help, but only if you can prove that you really own the 'old' IMEI, a screenshot or photo of the IMEI, perhaps. (Via PM)

[[Help Needed]] Failing to boot into recovery

Hello everyone!

Yesterday I updated my phone to kitkat (emui3) but i did not liked that for many reasons!

so i came back to my stock rom today! every things is as fine as it should be! but the phone is not booting into recovery through combination keys! but it does get booted into recovery through any app from playstore! so i want fix that up but i don't know how?

my phone is international

my bootloader is unlocked

although there is no problem besides that! :D but please help.
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] codelover:
Hi there, have you checked this post? The timing is important.

First, make sure you have extracted the driver zip before installing. (Not running the installer directly while it's still in zip)

You can also try to install the drivers

while

the device is

plugged in

, please also read the extra steps needed if you are running x64 pc.

MIUI 6 Beta issue

Hi [MENTION=4893922]codelover[/MENTION], could you help me to fix some issue with miui 6 rom? I had flashed it through emui 3.0. The installation seems running well, but after i test one by one the all features I found some issues here, such as

Which ROM you are using. Mine is running on latest JB ROM.

Please send me the firmware number/exact details.

---------- Post added at 05:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:28 PM ----------

Even it can not be a Kitkat based MIUI. It would be JB base.

In case music player giving FC, just do a fresh reinstall. I do not think OP would be able to help you and he is not the developer of the ROM u r using. You have to ask to the ROM developer.

However I feel it is better to stick with Huawei firmware, I saw that other firmwares including AOSP roms are very laggy. Huawei firmware is optimized for the hardware.
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] KSKHH:
I think I flashed that ROM earlier and that thru TWRP only, however I did not feel that is a great ROM. So far I have seen 6pack kitkat ROM is greatest.

You can just try to flash thru TWRP
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] Rayquaza:
i had reisntalled it several times, nope. nothing's change.

yes, OP wasn't miui developers actually but perhaps he will helps this case with his knowledge. anyway, i had reported it to miui developers, but still got any reply from them.

my current rom actually still beta, so maybe music player fc issue is one of the minor bug.

Thanks in advance....
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] codelover:
Which version did you tried (What's the dev name)? As far as i can remember, the last time i tested MIUI i did not get FC on music player.

Did you follow the recommendated steps? It's adviced to perform 'Format Data' before installing new ROM. (Make sure you backup your data stored in internal sd first)

AFAIR MIUI uses different internal sd structure than EMUI, if you did not perform that procedure most probably you will get some permission errors.

I am afraid there is nothing much i can do as i am not familiar with the that OS.

Don't worry, that was just a recommendation, not compulsary, you can still do anytime as long as your phone is still functioning.

No need, you only need to unlock once.

I am not sure if you still can get

full

root on latest EMUI running KK on secured boot, but for half-root, maybe yes.

Well, the root itself has nothing to do with locked bootloader, so you are safe to go even your bootloader is still locked.

Hi there, users already reported the procedures on this thread also working on europe set, so you are safe to go too.

Just make sure you create proper backup first, you can use LiveTWRP, or if want to flash it to device you will have to unlock bootloader first.

Try to read the guides again but pay attention to what i wrote.
