I have Huawei Honor 3C International I updated to Chinese stable Android 4.4. At first phone booted properly but not signals and IMEI. After that I tried to revert to 4.2.2 first I unlocked bootloader and OK showed in SP Flash Tool. Now phone is not booting up anymore and when I connect it to Laptop for Downgrade it just connect and reconnect every 4 seconds. Any solution for this.

---------- Post added at 01:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:58 AM ----------

Just recovered by flashing PrePatch first then flashed whole firmware Android 4.2.2 by Firmware Upgrade option in SP Flash Tool but the trick was that I used SPFlash Toolv3.1324. Because v3.122, v3.123 and v5.135 were unable to communicate with device :D :)

Modem Fix

Guys (specially developers) I have 2 questions for you about "Modem Fix" and I will be very happy if you answer them.

1st: How "Modem Fix" actually works? Don't need brief answer, just wanna know few basics about it.

2nd: If we use "Modem Fix", for example I have international Honor 3C and I use modem fix for custom rom but then I come back to stock rom so (here is my question) will I have some problems on stock rom with SIM signals, like less signals than before (before = not applying modem fix?) or often signal drops on stock rom?

I don't mean any offense here, don't wanna hurt anyones feelings. 2nd question is only reason why I am not using custom rom. I was holding this question for very long time and now I asked it. I hope you will understand. Just wanna know if "Modem Fix" has any disadvantages. If it doesn't then I will instantly flash it.

I hope you will understand my mean and will not mind. Still, I am really sorry if this hurt someones feelings.

Thanks in advance for answering questions.

Taking some feature from mate 7

Better to make backup for you NVRAM

Plz sir do tell these things about your custom rom when you will upload it:

a) Changes that you made (Change log)

b) What's working and what's not

c) Very short review/your experience

AND

d) How to flash it (if it's not in update.app format)

I know how to flash roms which are in update.app format but don't know how to flash using other ways (For Example, Flashing Boot.img with SPFT, plz tell how?). I usually use "Live TWRP" for custom roms flashing. As Live TWRP does not work with roms after 4.10.x from Huawei, so that's why I asked.

It will be very good if you answer these questions for newbies like me.

Thanks so much and keep up the good work. You people are really really great....!!
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] BoHasssoN:
You can use the spflash tool

Its all inform in the begining of this subject

New EU version of Honor 3C and problems with digitalizer

Hi, new EU versions/revisions of Honor 3C (H30-U10) 2GB RAM have problems with TWRP recovery and custom ROMs--- digitalizer not working in TWRP and in all custom and STOCK ROMs exept V100R001C432B111.

Phone come with V100R001C432B111 - you can recognize what version you have. If you have B111, you have new version.

If you have problems with digitalizer, here you can download stock ROM for your new version of Honor 3C

https://mega.co.nz/#!XNwTEbQZ!8EHaUMBjWkhrbEIw9ubEQeZ7SmwwWup64dkcw5U23XU

Not tested, but it should be working good.

I have a question : Is any chance to get custom ROMs working on new version of Honor 3C ?

All ROMs booted fine, but display and buttons under it not working. Power and volume buttons working good. I think the problem is in display driver.

Thanks for answer and sorry for my bad English.
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] codelover:
A1) We don't need to know how it work, we just know it works, if you really want to know, ask MTK or Huawei to release the source code, that's all i can say.

A2) Well, i can't answer that, i flashed CN ROM on the day i got the phone, before i start using it. The phone is still working perfectly now.

Like i said earlier, if you can't take any risk, staying with stock is your

ONLY

option.

You probably missed this post. For now, the temporary workaround would be using my patched update-binary for ROM installation.

CN KK kernel does not permits writting to certain partitions directly, maybe i will use old kernel or patch TWRP in coming updates, let's see how it goes.

Oh, i do aware of the update, but i am too busy (and too lazy) to update the thread as the link to check for latest version is provided in OP as well.

About the warning, perhaps they received too many complaints about users losing IMEIs, that's why they added the warning.

But i think with your 'rebel_upgrade_method', there is nothing to worry about, right? :D

Thanks for the link! Yea you are right probably the display driver problem, not sure if i can fix that, but we can try.

I will get you some tests in coming days so we can find out the problem, meanwhile can you/someone else re-upload the ROM but with files below 10MB

only

?

I don't want to download the full ROM as i only need few files, and my connection is really slow.

Just flash again with

any

chinese ROM, you can find all the links in OP.

.
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] Ax1qwer:
What files you need ? I unpack the rom and upload files you need for you.

Archive include SD upgrade(via update.app) and upragde via MTK flashtool too.

Here you can find ROM on huawei site http://consumer.huawei.com/no/support/downloads/index.htm

Here is direct link for download http://download-c.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=33703&version=58739&siteCode=no

But servers are sometime very very slow (5-10KB/s), sometimes are fast (2,3MB/s and maybe more)

It will be good, if you add it in your first post as alternative download link for B111
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] To$i:
[MENTION=4893922]codelover[/MENTION]

Thank you so much. You removed a very big hesitation. Thanks...!!

And also I wanna ask, I did a backup of rom when I bought phone, I did backup of that stock rom (B110) on second day of phone before doing anything so now I don't need to backup rom everytime before flashing any custom rom. Right? I have my original settings like nvraam, imei. Right?

Help with upgrading

The download link leads to the Developer Edition B255SP01. Should I download this developer edition or should I download the latest stable B261?

Also, I can't install the MediaTek VCOM Driver mentioned in OP. When I open "install", the command prompt shows the message "Do Not support Win NT earlier version. Press any key to continue...", and when I press any key, the command prompt just closes and nothing happens. I ran the program as Administrator and I have Win 8.1. Please help.
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] codelover:
Correct.

When i first wrote the guide there is no stable build, you should get the

latest

version instead, the link is same, but on the other tab.

As for the driver issue, please check OP for "MediaTek USB VCOM Driver v1.1123.00 (MTK VCOM driver for Win 8.1 x64)", (especially the "Important: read this" part)

ADDED

: Please read <Custom ROM Installation Guide>

Make sure you have MTK VCOM Driver installed, please read the guides again as it's has been mentioned what steps/tools are needed.

Also, please note that you must use the correct SPFT version as some versions do not work properly with H3C.

I've successfully unlocked the bootloader and have installed TWRP. However, I want to flash Dalet11 KitKat v2.5 and it says in the description "FLASH VIA CWM ONLY", but the CWM recovery provided there is not working (can't get the recovery to boot). Then I tried to flash the ROM using Carliv's CWM but the ROM installation gets aborted when it reaches something like "Kernel boot.img". Can you please help?

ANNOUNCEMENT

(FOR EU SET USERS):

* TWRP 2.8.1.0 optimized for EU set that comes with build.no C432B111 has been added to OP, touch is now working in TWRP.

* You

DO NOT

have to use this version if you have no issue with touch on previous versions of TWRP.

* With the help from [MENTION=5143854]Ax1qwer[/MENTION], i have identified the problem with touch *might* due to different hardware used in newer EU version. (B111)

* To get touch working on custom ROM for this newer EU set, request the ROM developer to replace the kernel used in their ROM.

* I will consider creating a patch to have the kernel replaced automatically with TWRP in the future.

* However, as of today there is only JB kernel available on this set, which mean this fix might not work on KK ROM, yet. (TBC)

For now, you can either flash boot.img manually with TWRP or replace the the update-binary according to this guide.

Soon, when my TWRP 2.8.5.0 is ready you will be able to flash boot.img directly with TWRP, or better you don't have to flash that at all.

Thanks mate, that's very generous of you, i really appreciate that, i have now added the donation link to my xda profile.

Regarding the ModemFix, it's same for Intl/EU, only needed if IMEI is missing after you flashed a ROM, some ROM already using the same patch.

Just make sure you have proper backup before you start playing around with SPFT, and most important, make sure you have the right device/model.

Not sure, why don't you try to backup the Camera app (Gallery2.apk/odex) on EMUI ROM and restore it on the MIUI,

if it works then congrats, but if it doesn't then probably there is other dependency file needed, you will need to find out yourself.

Well, IMHO i don't think other ROM is better & more stable than EMUI itself as EMUI has been fully customized/optimized for 3C.

[MENTION=4893922]codelover[/MENTION] I have made donation. Enjoy couple of beers :highfive:

1) I have received phone with B109 EU firmware. I have made backup with SP Flash Tool. It's better update to B111 before bootloader unlock or it's no matter on what version I will unlock phone ?

2) If I decide to try chinese B261 first. Do I have to update on B111 before update to B261 ?

3) Can I update to B261 + Modem FIX without unlocked bootloader ?

Thanks.
[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] codelover:
Hi, Thanks for the bears! :highfive:

1) I am not sure if B111 is suitable for you as Ax1qwer mentioned earlier it's for newer EU set and touch doesn't work when he flashed other ROM.

You can unlock bootloader at anytime/version, the unlocking processs has nothing to do with the ROM itself.

2) No, you don't have to, try SD Force Upgrade method first, if it doesn't work then use SPFT guide on post #7.

3) Yes, but not recommended, as you will have to unlock it soon or later or there is a risk of bootloop, eg: after you applied OTA.

Little advice, just stick with stock & wait for official KK OTA update if warranty is really part of your concern.

First, i would suggest you to spend some time to read from the beginning of the guide.

I am not sure what is 'EC's, but if you lost the IMEIs, probably you are not having china set, otherwise ModemFix would work.

LiveTWRP has some limitation, which you probably missed, if it doesn't work, flash the recovery permanently to device using SPFT.

What 'problem', i can't see any problem, please describe your problem in details, and please read from the beginning of the thread first.

EDIT: [MENTION=6430598]omar.skaik[/MENTION], you have locked set, install MTK VCOM driver & unlock the bootloader, please refer to OP.

[Honor 3C Guides, News, & Discussion] codelover:
Depends on service center, if you are lucky you might get unlocked, some lucky users even got KK when they got back their devices.

Yes you may, just make sure you create dump first, either with Mtk Droid & Root Tool or SPFT Readback.

Depends - The softbrick will only occurs if you use OTA while still locked, simply unlock to unbrick, otherwise, to remain locked - flash B108.

Yes, correct.

You can use my Live TWRP Recovery to root, you do not need to be unlocked in order to use this method.

Most MTK phones do not support OTG due to hardware limitation, the board/chip simply does not supply power needed to power the external device,

sometimes this problem can be solved by hacking USB power, or use special USB cable that provides external power to USB devices,

but i do not know if this is the case for Honor 3C, i am not a big fan of OTG. Try search on xda for more info/cable hack.

Touch 'Build number' under About phone for 7 times. (X7)

By the way, you have user reported that my rooting method worked for him too, that's mean you probably messed up.

Check my attachment if you need one, this is from official OTA for International set.

Sorry i can't help you to test your ROM because the i don't have the phone anymore,

returned to the real owner - my mother after i borrowed it for more than a month to test and make this guide. :fingers-crossed:

You cant help me on this as it is a fact !!

2) Inspite of trying everything , unable to root ( please help me out here, tell me what should be the approach from Scratch ?)

DONE ROOTED FINALLY :D , this is the mistake , i did not flash it in live recovery and did not follow the order ,

ie SU,GAPPS,PERMISSION FIX & FINALLY MODEM...

Also it one must Flash SU before the first boot , that is what i would suggest for ppl who suffer like me !!... when your cust fails press reboot system and remove the battery !! and take out the memory card and put the live recovery and tmp file and put it back in and switch on

u will enter recovery and flash the 2.01 version of SU ....;) it works !!! ...(Delete tmp file). then reboot once EMUI Setup , once done , again put back tmp file ( if bootloader locked else flash TWRP Permanently , Very useful recovery !!... [MENTION=4893922]codelover[/MENTION] awesome man awesome!!!

Typing this Live !!:good::good::good::good::good:

3)There is a fear of IMEI Loss , Could u please confirm me that by Flashing B115 and followed by B108 ( Signed) , i would be back on Stock OS Bootloader Locked with IMEI and Signals ??? Worried :eek::eek::eek:

4) how do we enable Widgets on LockScreen , why isnt there an option in Security to do so ?

All Questions are 100% True and i have not missed out on anything, i am sure about what i am reporting , kindly Help me out here !!
