Nope they didn't forget....

I DID check the status of my phone,my friend. Did you?

Use minimal ADB and fastboot - go in ADB and check with " ADB reboot bootloader"

You will see your status my friend...it WAS locked. So don't be that suspicious...it worked with mine ;)

Perhaps sent a mail [MENTION=5760686]KingRoot[/MENTION] like i did..perhaps they will look into it like they answered me :D
[Huawei Y6 Guides, News, & Discussion] digitri:
Cheers m8, I wasn't suspicious it was just a little joke, but I'm glad to hear that you've checked the lock status. :good:

It looks like the 2gb/dual-sim type (to my knowledge that's the only type available in Europe) can not yet be rooted without unlocking the bootloader. Would be nice if it could though...
[Huawei Y6 Guides, News, & Discussion] raystef66:
Got mine here...as a gift because i'm a gold member :o

http://www.proximus.be/PUB/self-emp...wei-Y6-Black/18a3ad5b975467290000015068ab9aa9

It's in Europe as Belgium still is for the moment :D

Mine is a 1gb/single sim.

There are 1gb/dual sim also :

And yours, the 2gb/dual sim.

Hope you can root it in the end. Good luck !

edit : perhaps you can unlock OEM in " developer options" and give it a second try with Kingroot. You never know...
[Huawei Y6 Guides, News, & Discussion] digitri:
Lol, dag buurman! Hi there neighbour I'm from Holland :)

My knowledge is indeed lacking, I stand corrected! I only saw the 2gb/dual sim version in the Dutch and German sites and presumed it was Huawei's Europe import policy.

It's available here for 136 euros from belsimpel.nl but I don't have it yet. I wanted to get it for a friend and dual sim is a must for her. I only want to root it, replace the hosts files to get rid of ads and unroot it again, so she gets no problems with ota updates and warranty and such.

Are you generally happy with this phone? Are the audio and call quality satisfactory?

Thanks a lot!
[Huawei Y6 Guides, News, & Discussion] raystef66:
Hi neighbour ! Indeed a small word :)

No problem ! There are 3 versions of it.

But i thought you've bought the phone already and tried Kingroot...

I use this phone as an interim because my ZP999 is in first aid :crying: Screen total loss...

But by unrooting this phone and deleting all unnecessary stuff and linking all the apps to my 2nd partition of SD it became a rather quick and very decent phone indeed! From the 1GB RAM i've always 500MB free.

There is no lack in opening apps. Battery is more than satisfactory (3 days normal use, 2 days no problem when making a bunch of phone calls like i do etc. ). Battery-charge cycle less than 1 hour.

Design is good. Slim body :p

Phone call : good but they put a rather hard blocking noice reduction in it, so when you have somebody on the phone and he/she does not say anything, sound is totally gone - that's a bit different with all the other phones i've got : caller voice and background sounds are hearable all the time. But you get used to it with this phone).

Touchscreen is very good even looking at a small angle is more than good. Backlight clarity ok.

GPS excellent! Wifi and carrier connect : excellent ! 4G top !

Sound when playing music : very good ( better then my ZP999)

So in general : worth the 130 euro's :cyclops:

Hey man, did you use the unlock code, or how did you unlocked the bootloader?, the system doesnt takes my IMEI or my ID for some reason.

Also, if you did use the unlock code could you give it to me so I can give it a try please?
[Huawei Y6 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheLessian:
Unlock codes are dependent on your IMEI. Why not look at your exact IMEI using "*#06#" (without quotes)? Sometimes, the IMEI on the phone's packaging box and the actual IMEI of your phone doesn't match, like in my case.

Thanks to every single person who commented in this thread.

Update:

My SCL-L02 is currently: Rooted and Bootloader unlocked

Apparently all the info I was using was right, but the browser might have been the culprit, tried firefox (my main browser), then edge and none of those worked, then I dowloaded chrome and used the same info, except when typing the model's name I used "HUAWEI SCL-L02" instead of just "SCL-L02" or "Huawei SCL-02"; so Im not 100% sure if it was the browser, or the caps on huawei.

tl;dr

>Unlocked bootloader with the code from the Huawei website.

>Then, rooted the mobile with Kingo apk, 4.65, it rooted succesfully at the first try and it doesn't rollback after restart.

Hi,

I have a Y6 SCL-L21 (SCL-L21C432B130). My bootloader is unlocked and i installed TWRP (modified for Y6).

I saw that Y6 (SCL-L21C185B130) can be rooted with kingroot. I tried (with different version) but it doesn't work on my phone. I tried a procedure to install supersu 2.74 beta and also 2.46 and flashed via twrp. I got a su binary error.

I searched difference between SCL-L21C185B130 and SCL-L21C432B130 but i found nothing....

Could i install a SCL-L21C185B130 stock rom on my mobile?

Where could i found stock for SCL-L21C432B130? And for SCL-L21C185B130 if i can install it?

Thanks for your help.
[Huawei Y6 Guides, News, & Discussion] nicolap8:
For Y6 SCL-L21.

You can find the C432BB130 ROM in the Huawei sweden support page.

And the C432B150 in the Belgian page (I have not yet tested).

I found a small app the seems to interfere with the SuperSU app: check_root.

It's located in /system/bin, try to rename it through the TWRP file manager.

My phone is currently rooted with SuperSU 2.76.
[Huawei Y6 Guides, News, & Discussion] NeSSone:
Thank you for your answer. I'm going to try.

Edit: Unfortunately, doesn't work :-/
[Huawei Y6 Guides, News, & Discussion] nicolap8:
I tryed a lot and done some mod's...

Oh, I remembered another thing:

rename the /system/app/supersu/supersu.apk to disable it and install SuperSU from play store. It's seems unlogical to me but I remember that only when I updated the app in the store it started to work!

After lots of trying and testing with different versions of King Root/SuperSU and suggestions from this thread, I finally managed to root my SCL-L21 (Dual-Sim, 2GB).

I unlocked the bootloader and recently upgraded to firmware C432B150. This upgrade must have done the trick since with the old B130 basically nothing really worked.

In the end, I was able to root using the KR-version mentioned in this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64418905&postcount=70

hello, i just registered to tell everybody my root success nightmare :D

first of all my mobile is Huawei Y6 SCL-L01 Single Sim / 1GB.

i DIDNT unlock bootloader.

with kingroot (many different versions = all failed) i pressed try root and it fail, continued to try again... at least 70 times while i was reading 21 pages on this forum.

I tried with airplane on off, with usb debbuging , oem unlocking etc in different combinations.... always kingroot said 1/3 steps and failed at the second.

i also tried kingoroot which failed also. btw i did get my unlock number from huawei registering with email which i didnt used.

finally i just restarted my phone > Developer options > enabled oem unlock, usb debbuging, keep screen on and not to verify usb applications (something like that) and fired up kingroot again.

1) once more a fail message > try again and phone rebooted

2) on kingroot said that 1 of 2 is applying and phone rebooted again

3) on kingroot said 1 of 1 and kept rebooting and nothing, always 1 of 1 remaining and reboot again, i always checked for root with root checker and still no success.

4) i turned off developer options > fired up kingroot > got a fail message again after the 1 of 1 steps, then tried again and said 1 of 3 ( i was about to kill my self :silly: ) then suddently BOOM ROOT access granted without reboot this time!!!

finally i did restart my phone just to see if root access is still there and yes it does, checked with root checker and everything is fine so far.

Hope this might help you, dont give up :D

Advice about rooting SCL-L21 needed

Hi, I have bought a Y6 SCL-L21 twin SIm. I got the bootlock unlock code from Huawei website and unlocked the bootlocker using adb and flashed TWRP using adb. So far so good.

Now, what I am asking is, which is the best way to root. Should I flash Super SU through TWRP or use Kingoroot as other users here are claiming success with using it.

I don't want to install a custom ROM yet, and just want TWRP for nadroids and root to remove bloatware and install Titanium Backup and app 2 sd etc.

Thanks in advance guys.

try kingroot its very safe, well if its not working at the end you have other solutions and your device will be ok anyway

Did you replace the Kingroot app with Supesu using Supersu-me? And if so - did it work?

Thanks in advance

---------- Post added at 09:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:13 AM ----------

Thanks for your advice. I have used the Kingroot method on a couple of other devices - one of them a Huawei y330 and it worked fine.

Anyhow, I have just made a nandroid backup in TWRP figuring that if anything goes wrong I have that to fall back on. I noticed a strange partition called CUST in TWRP - but backed it up anyway - anyone know what it is?

When I went to reboot, TWRP showed this message "Your device appears not to be rooted, do you want to install Supersu?" I opted for 'no' for now whilst I decide which way to go.
[Huawei Y6 Guides, News, & Discussion] nicolap8:
1) you are a "Senior Member" with more that 300 posts and you have not yet understood that BEFORE requesting you MUST read the thread and search!!!

2) NEVER use PMs for a common problem, this is a forum.

3) Kingroot and similar are very bad software (only morons suggest their use). Use only as last chance.

4) Having the booloader unlocked and TWRP installed the right thing is to install SuperSU (not that included in the custom recovery, use last stable). If doesn't work report here the problems, with all relevant info.

5) Remember that this site is xda-developers!!!

Followed the above - but SU says there is no SU binary installed even after installing from Playstore
[Huawei Y6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Theziggy:
Finally got my SCL-L21 rooted but it cost!!

First I tried flashing the latest SU using TWRP and followed the method by NeSSone here

This flashed SU ok but it wouldn't run - it just said that there was no SU binary installed, even trying to update it didn't work. Now I didn't install a custom ROM - so that may have been a reason why it didn't work, as I was trying to root stock ROM

I couldn't uninstall SU manually as it was now a system app so had to download another app from xda to uninstall it - which worked.

Next I installed the Kingroot recommended here. But it told me that there was no rooting method available - I did try a few times.

So then I installed the latest Kingroot 5.05 and it rooted in under 3 seconds. But it did seem to install a lot of other things onto the phone.

So I installed Super SuMe - but it couldn't uninstall the new version of Kingroot.

I checked and saw that there is a new paid version of Super Sume Pro - £3.96, which said it had finally been able to defeat Kingroot 5.05.

So I stumped up the money, installed, and followed the directions on the Play Store Super Sume Pro download page - this is very necessary as you have to disable some aspects of Kingroot first.

It ran and then proceeded to download another app, then downloaded and installed Super Su and then it deleted Kingroot app. And now I am rooted with a working version of SuperSU. Happy Days :)

So, that is how I did it.

Thanks to everyone for their help. Hope my experiences help somebody else
[Huawei Y6 Guides, News, & Discussion] nicolap8:
Of course: do not follow idiot's suggestions or old tutorials...

As I told Kingroot is a very bad software.

You not installed the last stable version of SuperSU (2.79) but something very older and not followed the instructions of developer but these of something else!

Finally the tutorial you followed is not for the original ROM but for a custom CM12.1. :good:

You not paid enough...
[Huawei Y6 Guides, News, & Discussion] raystef66:
I suggest you should wake up a little bit my friend.

You're using playstore right? You're using WhatsApp, . . right? So stop complaining about Kingroot. Every app collects data in every form, the one more than the other...

I do not favorite kingroot or any other app, but I do suggest if you call kingroot bad software, you throw your cellphone in your toilet and stay safe :)

BTW : if kingroot was that bad. Xda had already banned its enormous thread, no?!

Cheers!
[Huawei Y6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Theziggy:
Sorry, I did flash the very latest version of SuperSU 2.79 and followed the developer's instructions precisely. It did not work for me!

I am aware that the tutorial was for a custom ROM - but the end result was about achieving ROOT. Most custom ROMs are rooted

to begin with!

The only two supposedly successful roots of SCL-L21 on this forum are:-

The Custom ROM method - with TWRP and flashing SU and then changing SU.apk name etc. - tried it, it did not work for me,

The NewKingrootV4.60_C132_B232_xda_release_2015_11_13_ 105243 did not work either - it told me, after many attempts that there was no rooting method available but did I want to raise an issue.

So, I thought to try the latest Kingroot which worked in seconds, then discovered that in order to replace it with SuperSu that I would need to pay for Super SUme Pro, which by this point in my journey I was pleased to.

Again this is just my experience, I'm sure that nicolap8 will tell you I am wrong!!

I'm so happy to meet a forum so full of vitriol and welcome - a great cocktail!! I have been happily welcomed and contributed to many XDA forums and have never met such nastiness as I have here

Update on SCL L21

After my post about rooting using Kingroot 5.0.5 (earlier versions didn't work), and Super Sume Pro - which is the only version which can remove Kingroot 5.0.5. I was rooted. But upon reboot, root was lost.

The developer of Super Sume Pro says it is because Lollipop has SElinux enforcing. I have seen some scripts which claim to change enforcing to permissive on boot, but some users say it leads to bootloop so I haven't tried this yet.

I guess a custom ROM would allow rooting or even come already rooted but I don't want a custom ROM on this phone.

Will keep looking!
[Huawei Y6 Guides, News, & Discussion] nicolap8:
Check if somewhere there is a file named "check_root".

If it's in /system/... rename it and try to install LAST STABLE SuperSU (all from recovery of course).

If it's in the /bin folder you need to modify the boot.img.

BTW what is (exactly) you phone/rom?
[Huawei Y6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Theziggy:
I have uninstalled SU at the moment so will flash Supersu again and check for that file.

How do I go about modifying the boot.img?

My phone is Y6 SCL-L21 build SCL-L21C432B130 running Android 5.1.1 (stock)

I've just been reading about systemless root, which is a version of Chainfire's SU that doesn't install into the usual place. It was developed for Marshmallow but should work on Lollipop too. This method also modifies the boot.img, but saves a copy of the old image for un-rooting purposes. Have you used systemless root before?

BTW thanks for your assistance

---------- Post added at 08:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:47 AM ----------

Oh I do have a file called check_root in system/bin
[Huawei Y6 Guides, News, & Discussion] nicolap8:
The two thing are separated... This file seems to block the su daemon to work.

You don't need to modify the boot.img! In your firmware the file is in /system/bin. You can just rename it from the recovery (learn not to delete files from ROM, only a rename is sufficient!)

If you read correctly the systemless works ONLY on Samsung for Lollipop. You phone is Huawei...

Just follow my directions.
[Huawei Y6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Theziggy:
Ok - not sure what you mean be seperated though - or maybe two things are different?

Will do - so I can rename and flash SuperSU

I renamed the check_root file to check_root_OLD, flashed the latest 2.79 SuperSU, it seemed to flash OK, rebooted and opened the SU Apk which said no SuperSU binaries are installed.

I checked in recovery and there is an su file in system/xbin but nothing in system/bin

Puzzling
[Huawei Y6 Guides, News, & Discussion] nicolap8:
The su location is right.

Open a terminal and try to use the su command.
[Huawei Y6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Theziggy:
I typed su and it opened a SU window - grant access to Terminal Emulator - but typing some simple commands - nothing happens, yet a messages flashes up from time to time saying that terminal emulator has been granted supereruser permissions for an interactive shell

When I type su in a new terminal window nothing happens - the cursor jumps down to a new line - no hash tag to indicate su access
[Huawei Y6 Guides, News, & Discussion] nicolap8:
Rename the SuperSU.apk so it can not be invoked.

Do these commands:

su -cn u:r:init:s0

setenforce 0

Rename back the SuperSu.apk

Try su

For me worked.
[Huawei Y6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Theziggy:
Will these work in a terminal editor even if su is not working in the emulator? Will there be a response in the emulator to show the commands have worked? Will the sytem stay permissive after reboot?

Rename the Supersu.apk with twrp. I will do and report back to you, may not be until tomorrow though as I am away from home at the moment.
