[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alipps22:
I get to fastboot and it says "unauthorized device". No amount of resets or restarts help. The device is authorized in the normal boot screen. Also, the "boot into fastboot" command does not work it just restarts the phone. Is this something you have tried with THIS particular phone (Alcatel 5046G) or just some generic set of instructions?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] possibleparadox:
Anyone have any luck? I have the 5049z (through MetroPCS) and I think this thing would be great if I could get root.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonmerc:
Is that the A30 fierce? If so, it would be very helpful if you could work with me in Google Hangouts to get root. I'm working on the T-Mobile Revvl, the 5049w, with a mediatek mt6738 chipset right now. The Revvl and A30 Fierce are pretty much the same phone. If you're willing to (potentially) put your device at a small risk to benefit you and the community (assuming that's the A30 Fierce), let me know in a PM.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] possibleparadox:
Yes it's the A30 Fierce, and they are the same phone, the A30 is just rebranded for other carriers. I'd be happy to help.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TERMINATOR461997:
Well I have a A30 Tablet. (9024w) And it does allow the boot loader to be unlocked. in the dev settings I believe (Have to check where) Is that not relevant for rooting/ROMs?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonmerc:
Enabling "Allow OEM Unlock" is one thing. After you do that, you have to plug in your tablet to a PC with ADB, then issue `adb reboot bootloader` in a command line, then finally `fastboot oem unlock` to see if it's REALLY unlockable for ROMs.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benjmiester:
Wait, wonis this the A30 "fierce" that you guys have root on? From MetroPCS?

I ask because metro/TMobile phones are often not rootable.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonmerc:
We're working on root. The A30 Fierce is just a rebranded T-Mobile Revvl for a different carrier, both of which are still part of the A30 family. These phones, unlike the original A30, run on MediaTek hardware, leaving open a hole I might be able to exploit to get root and TWRP.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benjmiester:
Well that's good news. I'm looking to switch to metro PCS from TMobile to save about $35 a month. I was looking at the A30 Fierce and ZTE Blade Max, but I know there's no root for the ZTE. Almost certainly never will be.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonmerc:
Has anyone tried doing a KingRoot again? I'm starting to lose hope we will ever get root through the method I'm trying to do (but failing at).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] possibleparadox:
I tried many a time-out to no avail.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sau1992:
Any luck? I have the a30 from metropcs and it allows me to enable OEM bootloader unlock.

I attempted kingo but it never worked. I couldn't get adb to work on my computer.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Augustoandro:
Try Dr Fone for pc.

Install Koush universal adb driver, your adb will start working. You can download it from kaushikdutta.com
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonmerc:
Yeah we get the option to do so on the tmobile one as well, but the problem is actually getting into fastboot mode to initiate the OEM unlock command that'll actually do the unlock

I just tried to get to the website you linked, it didn't exist. ADB drivers aren't the problem, its just booting into fastboot that gives us trouble.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Augustoandro:
Oh, sorry, my bad, I misspelt the name of website. Here is the correct one www.koushikdutta.com

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sau1992:
I see. Sorry for the confusion I derailed the thread with off topic stuff, I was asking because I couldn't even get adb to work on my windows 10 machine.

So I'm guessing Dr fone won't help correct?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonmerc:
I actually didn't even look for Dr Fine, I just assumed it was on the website you linked and therefore it didn't exist.

Feel free to try it out, if you have a Revvl to play with. PM me if you need any help.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sau1992:
Thanks. I'm giving it a shot.

It says it's at 17% and it's doing a lot more than king or kingo because when i used them it did absolutely nothing, this one is actually resetting the phone and stuff, so it looks lie something is actually going on with it.

edit- it failed.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sau1992:
After fiddling with this phone I've realized this phone is absolute junk and I totally wasted $90 on it.

This phone won't go into fastboot, and weird stuff like system ui crashes excessively which causes it to restart itself.

It's obvious that TCL put out a phone that wasn't tested thoroughly and or wasn't completed as it should have.

Save your money up for a properly running phone.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KyleBryant:
If anyone finds anything let me know, I just got the a30 fierce and this phone is already sweet, but root would be even better.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonmerc:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KyleBryant:

Kingroot is now taking exceptionally longer to try and root after this update, failed once but I'll keep trying.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonmerc:
The update also included a new preloader partition to flash, which is why I was afraid of you guys taking it (hence why I said in previous posts to never take updates). To me, the only reason they'd rewrite a completely new preloader is if there was something wrong with the current one.

I should've said something about this, but I didn't. I apologize for that. On the brightside though, maybe a new preloader opened up the port I used for mediatek modification and we can use it now... Send me a PM and we can try some methods out

With phrases from the article like "We blink your Alcatel A30 to PC-MAC, and run MV Un-locker", and a picture of the Motorola bootloader unlocking website (when talking about an Alcatel phone), clearly this website/method isn't going to work

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
The only requirement is an unlocked bootloader and kernel source code. Next time just make sure your device has those before you buy it. But to be honest. It is getting harder and harder. Outside of one plus or the pixel there is very few oem that you can root.

I've been able to gain temp root shell with selinux premissive on 3 different MTK Soc's tonight alone with many other MTK devices prone to this exploit. With temp root shell access, you can dump and flash system partitions directly. You can also push SuperSu to your device, or even debloat it, pull and push files to help defeat other securities. I can also port twrp.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LagMaster420:
If you do find an actual program, then it will take advantage of an exploit, such as the one I am going to post in this thread. Such an action is unsafe unless you either reverse engineer the program, or write the code yourself.

Mine's a Cortex A7. MTK-su only works on MedaTek chipsets. CPU-Z says my Alcatel A30 has a Cortex A7. Is it wrong?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LagMaster420:
You can't get into bootloader even if OEM Unlock is enabled. Stop trying. The only way to root this device is to hack it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LagMaster420:
Yes, it is wrong. I checked CPU-Z, which said I had a Cortex A7. I got suspicious that this was incorrect because you guys on this thread talked about mtk-su which is for mediatek processors, and qualcomm 210. So, I used a different CPU info app, and that one said Qualcomm MSM8909, which is apparently the same thing as the Snapdragon 210 after Google. Bottom line, the Alcatel A30 has a Snapdragon 210, probably. Mine does, I think.

I swear, I don't have stupid problems like these with Alcatel. Even Onn garbage isn't this bad. And not to mention how SLOW it is! A phone like this makes me wonder why I should even bother rooting it...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LagMaster420:
You can't root this device through the bootloader like that.

Breaking the ads doesn't actually require root, but getting rid of the bloat might

​

If you happen to buy from China or received a gift with a China local release Huawei Watch, here is the guide on how to flash with an English Rom which I have already tested mine on.

Here is the complete guide:

Link Download Rom Fastboot Images : Huawei2_NXG46W_Global_4G.zip

1) Hold down the power button

2) The screen will go black for about 2 seconds and then boot into the Huawei logo. Keep holding down the power button.

3) Wait for the first vibration, release the power button and then immediately give the power button one short press.

Note: If you feel the second vibration, you waited too long to do the release and press.

Step 1: Unlock the Bootloader

1.) On command prompt mode, type this command:

fastboot oem unlock

2.) accept the prompt on the watch.

Note: If successful, command prompt will say your bootloader is already unlocked.

Step 2 : Flashing

While on Fastboot mode, type this on lenh.bat prompt one at a time:

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash cache cache.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

• If you want to Lock Bootloader to enable the logo when you see the annoying warning when unlocking bootloader, then typing:

fastboot oem lock

• Restart the machine

fastboot reboot

--- > and then go to recovery and do a wipe data / factory reset.

Congrats! Your done! :highfive:

Is that possible to install a Pinyin input when installing the international rom?
[Huawei Watch 2] giangishanghai:
main differences are leanguage (of course) and google packages.

about pinyin I have never tried, maybe possible, you have to have an apk able to add pinyin into phones and see of you can install it into watch via adb command.

[Huawei Watch 2] wzhy:
Yes, use adb install sideload the adb to watch and it will work.

I have install a pinyin input method from AW2.0 DP5 china edition. But I dont know if this app is upgraded when aw2.0 china edition is released.

Version number in DP5 china edition is: 1.0.1 100528. Find this by Settings-Personalization-Input methods-Google PinYin.

Bricked my watch ><

I accidentally flashed these images on my Huawei Watch 2 BT LEO-B09/LEO-BX9 Chinese version instead of the ones from the other thread and now my whole watch won't even boot. I think it's called hard bricked, I try to press the power button but the screen remains black and when I plug in the watch to a computer I get an error saying that Windows does not recognize that device. I know I did a stupid thing but is there anyway to fix this?
[Huawei Watch 2] giangishanghai:
hello,

it is not "big" stupid thing.... time ago was stated 4G and BT versions firmware was the same....... in fact not.

btw, there is nothing to do, you have to send back to HW service for replacement, it happened to me.

If you are in China this will take one week, other places I dont know.

regards
[Huawei Watch 2] mcdull:
A member Acberry tried the same and was able to boot the BX9 normally (with prompt of no SIM). Did you tried removing the watch from the charging dock and press and hold the power button? It does not bring up anything on screen?
[Huawei Watch 2] Deleted member 8325300:
I tried everything, I tried turning it on with and without the charging, I tried holding the power buttom for 30 second, I tried to plug it in with the PC and run fastboot, but the screen doesn't even turn on. nothing.
[Huawei Watch 2] mcdull:
See if [MENTION=8277875]dr_chch[/MENTION] can get you the full rom recovery software. The extracted image for BX9 is provided from him. In the example of B09s, the executable file is actually used by Huawei to recover the watch, although it cannot be run successfully (with error). BX9 could be another story. I guess it should be used together with another low level qualcomm driver to sideload the image including the bootloader.
[Huawei Watch 2] :
Oh that would be great if there is still a way to fix it from my side without needing to send it to Huawei.

I'll contact dr_chch then. thanks :D
[Huawei Watch 2] giangishanghai:
hello,

it is sad to say but believe.... there is nothig you can do. watch cant be switched on, cant be connected to pc so adb wont work, screen always black even if watch it is not really off......... no way.

service will not detect you make mistake, they will try to boot it, nothing will happene so they will replace it with a new one, same as me.

if I may..... where are you from?

regards
[Huawei Watch 2] :
I'm living in Tokyo, I hope the Huawei service center here can do that. I bought the watch online so I don't have the receiptime, would they still replace it at this point?
[Huawei Watch 2] mcdull:
I tried not to always disagree with you too. But adb is another layer of application. There are another low level driver could be used before you can load the bootloader.

In some qualcomm / mtk android devices, you will be able to load the factory driver so that the device would appeared as a COM device and then you can load the bootloader, etc. Then you can boot into fastboot which then you can use the google composite driver for fastboot / adb services. On the other hand, it is hard to give concrete information if the driver is publicly exist without some insider information. But this is how the device work.

Check if you can get snapdragon driver load for the watch.
