Shouldn't "Fastboot flash boot cofface_recovery_che2tl00h.img" be "Fastboot flash recovery cofface_recovery_che2tl00h.img"?

I think this was the mistake, I overwrite boot partition so I need stock boot.img and stock recovery.img also.

Long Dilemma short

Will we ever have custom ROMs for this device? :confused:
[Honor 4x Guides, News, & Discussion] xperia_rebel:
Sorry ,thanks,

Can anyone try this and develop this idea

Create a folder dload

Place a text document empty

Now rename it to au_temp.cfg

Similarly place a file called update.app

Now place it in root of SD card and power on the phone and watch what happens

The phone will install anything that us called update.app and au_temp.cfg is looper file which loops this until its removed from dload

Hello, I would like to buy this phone, how is the rear camera quality and what sensor does it use.
[Honor 4x Guides, News, & Discussion] rainbowfootprints:
I can't comment on the quality since I haven't got it yet but the rear cam is Sony and front cam is Samsung apparently
[Honor 4x Guides, News, & Discussion] cliche guevara:
Rear camera quality is very good considering the price point. Good clarity, focuses well and has a quick shutter speed. The camera software leaves a little to be desired - colours are slightly washed out and it adds depth of field artificially in what I guess is an attempt at making photos more DSLR-like.

Has anyone reliably rooted and installed Lollipop? Can it be done at this stage? I've seen nothing on custom ROMs at all.

3. Flash boot, recovery, system and userdata using fastboot.

fastboot flash userdata USERDATA.img [Optional. Mine was corrupted]

fastboot reboot

Then the device will boot. If the userdata is corrupt, it will ask you to restore factory settings. In this case just flash userdata if not done previously.:o

Updating Honor 4X

HI,

The method I explained was for phones which got bricked and was not booting properly. If your phone is working properly you can just download the update, extract it and put the 'Update.APP' file in your SD card in a folder named 'dload'. Then you can select this from Updater.

1. Download Update RAR file.

2. Extract it.

3. Copy dload folder (Cherry-L04 V100R001C900B126\Software\dload) to your SD card.

4. Go to Settings > UPdater > Menu > Local Update.

5. You will find this Update file listed. Select it and install it.

6. Userdata is not overwritten. So taking backup is not necessary (But it is a good thing to do)

7. Phone will reboot and you will see EMUI recovery installing this update.

That's it.

Bro, I tried all hit and trials but couldn't get the unlocking code. Emailed them, let's see.

Please give link to :

1) Huawei Device Drivers

2) ADB toolkit from Google’s website

I tried searching, got Huawei Pc Suite, finding ADB is so confusing.

http://www.adbtoolkit.com/adb-toolkit-1.6.4.rar Its 1.3 GB :-?

Please help :)
[Honor 4x Guides, News, & Discussion] foo9001:
The unlock method through the vmall.com website doesn't work for the Che2-L11 right now.

When you change the product model drop down and enter your device information correctly it will display the following message:

"We regret to say that the information you are searching is not found. Pleae mail to mobile@huawei.com, We'll respond to you as soon as possible, thanks. "

I have tried e-mailing them for the unlock code but no reply so far, although this could be a timing/wording thing specific to my attempts. Would be interested in hearing about other people's experiences.

Whether the recovery image is generic enough to run on the device, I have no idea. But since you can boot into a recovery image without flashing it, this would be easy and fairly low risk to try once you get the bootloader unlocked.

As long as it will get far enough for adb access this would allow you to backup your partitions from the shell and/or install the files needed to gain root under the stock rom. I would stay away from using any of the recovery menu functions (e.g. backups or flashing zipfiles) until someone releases a version that was tested on this model.

I don't know which area Che2-UL00 is meant to sell but it has the same specs, aparently. I couldn't work it out to get unlock code with that english site inspect hack in vmail.com but I did it with chinese one (dont't speak a word that language thought...) at emui(dot)com /plugin.php?id=unlock&mod=detail (can't post urls says this site) I had to register with weebo (chinese twitter, I understood) in chinese. Later I discovered that you can change the emui.com sites language at top bar but theres no Honor models so it has to be made with chinese version where there is Che -models at least. To make it easier than register with weebo I suggest that you first register Huawei account with english site and then just log in in chinese one. Then you can register with Facebook for example. Form is exactly same so just insert the same data to it and then click red button. Site gives the code under the captcha. vmall.com dosen't make you to register but I at least didn't sucess with that inspect hack and I tried many times. Also there is another option to ask it directly from huawei support as it stands in the sites footer.
