[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] MarcoPLs:
on chinese rom i have 300mb more of internal storage and moving apps with stock app2sd is enough for me.

battery manager from huawei sucks, my phone was laggy because of it, i rather use amplify to fix battery drain and without phone manager theres no need to set any protecktion on apps, i use greenify to close useless apps (at the moment i have 56% of free ram :p ).
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] ericotena:
You move apps to sdcard?

Do you still get notifications? Because I can't get notifications when the app is closed unless turning it on in protected apps.
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] MarcoPLs:
without phone manager apps arent closed unless low memory kill it or you kill it yourself with greenify, greenify can keep notifications on hibernated apps (set it in options)
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] ericotena:
Then how do you monitor consumption level and power usage details? Unless you don't use it.

Did you try using Wallpaper Wizardrii? Youre on Emui 4, what about using Default themes, i mean the other ones that are available for download? Everythings fine here on my 4x, both Emui 4 and Emui 3.1. Currently Im down to B360.

Hi, I did as you have said, Was able to get to "Huawei Software installing" stage. But it keeps getting stuck at 90%. I tried what u said about unplugging the USB. Still nothing. Any other ideas?
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] panchovix:
[MENTION=5056784]Linton_Ne[/MENTION] you need to have usb disconnected every time, it doesnt works if for example you start with the usb connected and then you unconnect it, it will get stuck at 90% anyways
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] Linton_Ne:
Thank you!! I don't know if I got lucky, but I flashed recovery.img, system.img and boot.img in "Che2-L11_V100R001C432B310" and did fastboot reboot and voila......Phone is alive again.:victory::victory::victory::victory::laugh::laugh::laugh:

Update: Sim cards inactive

Model number is now hi6210sft

Build number is Che2-L11C432B506 :(:(
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] MarcoPLs:
on 5.1 i still got battery usage details.

phone manager is actually good, i just dont like huawei stuff and i rather manage things with third party software. it will be easier for you to keep phone manager ;)
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] ericotena:
I've used greenify and even amplify. My issue only is that battery manager section in the advanced settings is also deleted/disappear when i uninstall the phone manager. That is why im curious how do you monitor battery usage when you uninstalled the phone manager :D
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] MarcoPLs:
on 5.1 i still got battery section, i dont know why huawei moved it to phone manager on 6.0 but anyway i can see battery percentage level on status bar with some simple math i know that hkernel with little bit of help from greenify doesnt drain almost anything.

if you want emui 4.1.1 any cam rom, C432 is europe, im using C223 since it has good signal here in chile, and i dont know why

if you want Emui 4.1, go for ALE-21C02B89X, with X>=0

in 4.1.1 you cant move apps to sd from the system itself

on 4.1 you can

Hello, I need to send my phone back into repair as its USB port failed. I can still charge, albeit very slowly, and transferring data using the port doesn't work (so, no ADB for instance). Is there a way for me to still be able to re-flash a stock bootloader? Thanks!

CAM-L21C432B121? Is this right? Should I download the OTA/ Full?
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] panchovix:
[MENTION=7482861]ericotena[/MENTION] on cam only download full, on che 2 if the rom is >1gb it can be used
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] ericotena:
Finished downloading CAM-L21C432B121. What should I do next?
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] panchovix:
[MENTION=7482861]ericotena[/MENTION] put the UPDATE.APP from the cam folder, into the updateflasher.zip, i mean, besides the Meta-inf folder, it should look like this

http://imgur.com/a/2hElq

then you put the zip in your sd, mount all partitons except otg, and flash the zip, probably it will give an error but just ignore it
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] ericotena:
After the flashing what should I do next?
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] panchovix:
probably wait to boot, then wipe with stock recovery data and cache, then install twrp and format data (not cache), so you delete the encryptation

then when the phone is booted you will se a nav bar, in build.prop (with root), change qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 to 1, and you are done

The root is the same thing as always, i use super su 2.78 since it does auto systemless root

esal v2.2 works with 4.1+ too
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] ericotena:
Is the format data same as wipe data in twrp? Btw can I revert back to may original firmware b515 just in case?
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] panchovix:
[MENTION=7482861]ericotena[/MENTION] format data is along advaned wipe, so it isnt the same (the twrp wont allow you to wipe data without formatting it first)

yes you can
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] ericotena:
Just in case how do I revert it back?
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] Romiui:
wiping data of formatting will lead u no lose all data .

throw TWRP just take a backup in ur SD card then do what ever u want .
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] ericotena:
Sorry but what Im referring to is reverting back to my build b515 :good:
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] Romiui:
what build u r in now ?
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] panchovix:
you use appflasher with any 4x rom (i.e. you want b515 back, you put the update.app from the 4x rom into the appflasher, and you flash it and you are done)
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] ericotena:
So it's the same as flashing the cam rom? Oh I see makes sense :svetius::laugh:

Hello xda community. I recently rooted my Honor 4x (unlocked bootloader, TWRP, flashed SuperSU over stock android 6 rom), I deleted some preinstalled google apps like books, music etc. Now i want to go back to stock, untouched, not rooted system. My problem is... i formated my sd card and lost my backup of untouched system that i made with TWRP. Is it possible to flash system.img (that i extracted from huawei android 6 update file UPDATE.APP) with bootloader ? Will it work ? By "work" I mean will it give me a nice, clean, untouched stock rom? (i know that i can flash stock recovery.img this way)

I posted that on general android Q&A topic but i think this one will be more relevant.
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] muradulislam:
Just flash system and boot images in bootloader. Depending on your root type, it will get rid of the root whether it is a system or systemless root.

Use the images from the same firmware you are using now.

I always use this way to get rid of my root.

[MENTION=6543708]MarcoPLs[/MENTION] i cant see the pic, but let me see, you flashed the zip correctly, format data, then your phone went all good until you flashed the twrp with appflasher? that is pretty weird, can you try installing twrp via fastboot? i say this because i always install the twrp from here, and no problems, even, im on CAM-L21C223B131 with emui 4.1.2 with no problems, im using esal kernel for 4.1+, installed 4x twrp via fastboot
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] MarcoPLs:
how long does it take for first boot of 4.1? and do you have "this device have been unlocked and cant be trusted" message?
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] panchovix:
[MENTION=6543708]MarcoPLs[/MENTION] a bit more than 4x roms, tho i think it is because the kernel, yes it says that, it means unlocked bootloader, on Y6II it shows like that
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] MarcoPLs:
chinese rom was booting in 30 second or less this one is still booting and it didnt even detect charging yet so i dont think it will boot up :/

ill run factory reset with stock recovery this time maybe it will do something

you should add to guide that it have to wiped with stock recovery ;p

which twrp version did you use to format data?

looks like i got stuck... when i format data its getting bootlooped and when i wipe it with stock recovery it gets encrypted again (right now i used twrp 3.1)

edit2: or no... booting to twrp it cant acses data again :eek:

I did a broad search, I think I just entered "Honor" in the search field, and got hundreds of hits. Among them were eight or nine for my model (Che2-L11), and there were links provided to download these firmware versions. These links were not working. The search app is probably working but the links it found were dead. I can try again.

Actually I need to download my current firmware too (build 570). I have only a backup, not the firmware file(s). I tried going to huawei.com and searching there, but could not find it. If anyone knows how to find firmware on huawei's website, I would appreciate it. I know it's there, as other websites links directly to huawei, to fw.

I agree with you in that one, if only we had the look of 4.1 and performance with battery life of 3.1 i would be happy, anyways i guess i will just go back to LP, the battery difference is a lot, and to the 3d fix on 4.1 you need like 50%+ battery, so rip

I tried 3 different roms ALE-L21C02B893, CAM-L21C223B131, CAM-L21C432B121 and somehow flashed all of them successfully (mounting partitions except otg/ wiping the date & cache partition with stock recovery). It boots just fine to android but everytime I flash twrp and try to format data it always give an error "unable to mount /data". Somehow found a workaround by doing the steps again (mounting partitions, install zip, wipe data/cache in stock recovery, flash twrp) and now the twrp let me format data successfully. But after that it just results to bootloop (the backlight of the phone is on but the logo doesn't appear), I let this on for an hour or two it just doesn't boot.

So i tried to do this code on twrp terminal "mke2fs -T ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p8", I know it's not meant for my phone as the thread is for another phone. Yeah I know how silly I am to try that :D. Somehow bricked my phone as I can't flash twrp.img on fastboot. It says "FAILED <Remote: command not allowed>". Fixed it by forced update with my old b515 rom (dload/update.app) and somehow it installed successfully. Now I'm on CAM-L21C432B121 once again.

How to fix this bootloop? When booting my phone for the first time a message says that decryption unsuccessful and I need to reset my phone. What I did was revert back to stock recovery and the phone just did the factory reset. Is that different from formatting data in twrp?

PS. Now my phone shows this red screen when booting my phone (to OS/ recovery) but boots anyway (probably because of the code I execute in twrp as this does not happen before flashing the roms).
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] panchovix:
[MENTION=7482861]ericotena[/MENTION] weird things you did lol, if you want to have data not encrypted, you need to boot the phone normally (with stock recovery), it will say the data is encrypted, then it ahs 2 options, it will direct you to low reset factory, or it will ask you a password, if happens the 1st one, you just need to wait the low level format and then, you install twrp, then format data, then you are done

if happens the 2nd one, you need to manually wipe data with stock recovery lol, then the same thing with twrp (format data)
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] MarcoPLs:
its pretty much like my problem from past

twrp 3.1 wasnt able to mount data and formating it with make_ext4fs caused bootloop

try different recovery, for me switching to twrp 3.0.2 worked.

i quess you are using twrp 2.8 because it use wiping instead of make_ext4fs by default
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] gopinaidu77:
Those are all good. But whatever you do, do not format with fastboot.
[Honor 4x Questions & Answers] ericotena:
All is well now. I read the past posts and saw that MarcoPLs has the same problem with mine. It's because of the twrp version, I used the one you linked with twrp 3.0.2 from 5a and now I'm able to format data. Thanks :good::D

Btw, what partition is mmcblk0p8? Coz I think I messed up my phone coz it shows a red screen everytime a boot my phone :eek:
