Hi, this link is dead and it's no longer available

I still have this Huawei T1-A21L model Android 4.4.4 version, almost new but cannot run again many of my business apps, until updated to at least Android 5+

Someone could someone share new link? It would be greatly appreciated

Hi!! I manged to unlock botloader on my mediapad, mine is the wifi model but I assume this rom you shared before should work just fine... the problem is, it is down, do you happen to have the file or a mirror that you could provide? Thanks in advance!
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Kazzz20:
Has anyone got a link to download the ROM please?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] MatthieuM:
Try this for T1-A21 migration to Chinese ROM T1-A23:

Huawei mediapad t1-a21l - Google Drive

drive.google.com

I remember being able to load the image at some point (before reverting back to T1-A21 stock) but can't remember the steps I had taken...

I wonder if I had to manually flash each individual partitions under fastboot...

If you are successfull, please share your steps as I would like to migrate to T1-A23 once more (but don't have much time to revisit) to use the tablet as a smarthome Dashboard for homeassistant but need to side-load some APKs that only work from Android 5+ onwards (i.e T1-A23 ) -
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] mustang_ssc:
Sorry for my late of replies as i've been away from here. I've looked into my hard drivers but unfortunately didnt find the Android 5 stock rom.

That Drive database is so cool, glad you saved some information from this antique device.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] affggh:
hi，can you share how to compile kernel source and make it bootable on my a23w. thanks.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] justin_bieber0:
why was need to unlock?just for root? if only for burnin rom.. im allready burnin on T1-A21L (8GB) to T1-A23L without unlock ,was just download dload_t1A21L_C100_Working (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1DotYHqHJ2nUqDw66Iihv60-K_AONJVpI) and then (T1-A23LC233B117

) https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/17G8B37M6xVcWSuo-ZRWNkZHtoahH_EzK then.. unpack this two folders,from folder T1-A23LC233B117 get only file UPDATE.APP and put to folder where you unpacking "dload_t1A21L_C100_Working" and replace there UPDATE.APP then get a empty micro sd card and put there folder "dload" to card,then turn on tablet and put on dialer

*#*#2846579#*#*

ProjectMenu => Software Upgrade => (external ) SDCard Upgrade => OK

after rebooting and flashing system telling to you : remove sd card

if system not get starting flash,or with error

download any explorer and go to external sd card, cut folder and transfer it to root of micro sd, for some reason, dload was saved to a subfolder and the firmware process did not go

after flashing i will think system bootloop but after restarting with logo "honor" system goin up,imei still native for 4g,you need change from chines lang to your and download es explorer or something from china app system huawei,presented label on desktop,after download,put sd card with downloaded from pc or any phone apk(chrome Google+Chrome+71.0.3578.98.apk etc) if you isnt wanna sitting on china browser and install,then download from trashbox com.android.vending-25.9.19-19.apk (or any another latest google play market FOR android version 5 or 4.4 if system aborted installation ) and com.google.android.gms_22.43.12-224312000.apk (google play services )( (or any another latest google play services FOR android version 5 or 4.4 if system aborted installation )) after installing go into play market and login with ur mail,check before system data and time,because was chines timezone

youtube (1080) (its better than on android 4.4 from brwser with 720 and rock of lags) some other programs are still running but.. you know ...

these manipulations with loading services still help on some other devices on which you suddenly cant go to play market,sometime that android 6 version or 7..
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] MatthieuM:
@justin_bieber0

Thank you for your instructions....Was super easy in the end to update T1-A21L Android 4.4 to Lollipop 5.1.1 (using T1-A23L stock ROM)....

Now got the T1-A21L running Android Lollipop 5.1.1 with full Google services and PLay Store etc (Nova Launcher/Netflix/YouTube etc..)
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] DionKill:
Wow just in time. Yesterday i managed to install it, even though the folder wasn't the C100 but another one, i found the files you showed on the picture and installed it. Now that i came back to it to see if there was the twrp thing to see if i can unlock the bootloader and now the whole folder is gone again! How is that even possible?

If anyone is wondering about the performance, as someone who has used that tablet since 2016, it's slow. Like, kinda similar to the stock android 4.4 but it still is a challenge to even browse the play store. Not exactly a gaming machine. But it has it's uses. I think the biggest issue is the ram though.

I wanted to root it so i could OC the cpu and maybe make it more usable but i have no idea how to do as the files are gone... I did find a website that claims to have them but i don't know if i can post it here as i'm kinda new to this website.

If anyone can upload the files again it would be a GODSEND. But still thanks for making that happen!

BTW i still do have all the files to update, i just don't have the the files for root. If anyone asks i can try to upload them somewhere.

Edit: i also have the rooted imgs and a few other things but i still have no way to get root access without unlocking the bootloader. I tried using KingoRoot but it doesn't work anymore, i remember it did in android 4.4 though because i did actually have it installed... Not even the PC version works, because the app keeps on crashing all the time on the tablet, and then it gets stuck... I really want to know if there's an easy way to bypass the bootloader unlock process to be able to get root. I just want to overclock...
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] BrokenHost:
Can you please tell me where did you find this two files? I managed to find the "update.app" mentioned in the thread but your files are not available anymore, how should I do it now?

I need so bad android 5, I can't afford to buy a new device and this is the only temporary solution, please help
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] BrokenHost:
Hi Matthieu, can you please provide the files?

I really need it and the Google drive links are not available anymore!
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] MatthieuM:
Placing the "dload" folder into root of sdcard and powering up from off went through the full migration to T1-A23L 5.1.1 lollipop migration .

I then enable developer mode / ADB over usb and side-loaded the relevant APKs shared in the post above to get google services+ etc...

Google Drive: Sign-in

Access Google Drive with a Google account (for personal use) or Google Workspace account (for business use).

Hello, I tried to root my Mediapad T1-A21L and the result that now it's bricked and stuck in the fastboot rescue mode.

I tried to use ADB fastools to upload a new recovery and the stock rom, but when i run the devices command it returns me back there there is no device plugged.

I installed the Huawei USB drivers correctly, i'm using windows 10

I was not able to find any scatter image to use SP tools so i don't know how to get put of this.

Any kind of help or suggestion is welcome
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] MatthieuM:
You could try perhaps:

fastboot reboot-recovery
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Reflex79:
thank you for the suggestion, unfortunately the link you posted is not available anymore.

Anyway the cable is ok, if i plug a samsung device the "device" command gives me back the right code.

So the problem is inside the mediapad itself
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] MatthieuM:
Both links appear to work for me...?

Perhaps it is in "bricked" state and you might need to use EDL/Testpoint recovery : https://androidforums.com/threads/ive-bricked-my-t1-a21l-huawei-tablet.1327072/post-7991436

I'm on the Android 5.1.1 chinese rom with the Gapps installed, but i get a notification saying i need to update the PlayServices otherwise I won't be able to use Gapps, but when i click the notification nothing happens.

Are we out of luck for Gapps on the tablet?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Matteo Basso:
Could anyone provide me the stock rom for T1-A21L?

Firmware version: T1-A21LV100R001C100B003
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] DionKill:
IF you are having trouble with any of the commands with adb or fastboot, it's because you need to have the hisuite app installed. I reccommend installing it on a dummy PC that you don't use if you can, and download some old version from those weird websites that have them saved. I think i had installed 5.x and it did work
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] TestaMic:
can some tell me how to unlock the bootloader on the lte variant?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] MatthieuM:
@TestaMic

I haved used program "DC - Unlocker 2 Client 1.00.1430" program myself back in Oct 2020 and x4 credit from DC unlocker in order to unlock my T1-A21L LTE variant mediapad.

[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] TestaMic:
Is there any way so i can use dc unlocker without paying?

Hello! I also wanted to know if there is a version for the T1-a21w variant, I've been trying to find ways to unlock the bootloader with no succession
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] MatthieuM:
I believe the DC unlocker program can provide you with bootloader code for T1-A21W (Wifi only version)

For A21L (lte versions) it does the above as well as prodiving the SIM unlock functionality as well as the bootloader unlock code.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Remiington:
I downloaded the mobile app they had, they had a link to compatible devices and it did mention the lte version but not the wifi version.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] mustang_ssc:
Looking at my old drives I was able to find the EMUI 3.1/Android 5.1.1 flashable by TWRP ROM I made back then, here is for anyone still interested:

https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=9180008750105234551

This is based on the LTE version that was updated to Android 5.1.1. Build number T1-A23LC233B117

For T1-A21w, not tested on other variants.

Needs to be flashed by TWRP.

It includes Busybox and SuperSU.

Other than that make sure to make backups, it has been a long time, I dont remember all details and possible issues but running smooth on mine.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] DionKill:
No you don't have to have TWRP. justin_bieber0 made a great tutorial and it worked for me, but it is still very clunky to fix after installing.

Hey guys, looking online I found this tool, it's free and open source and it's to unlock the bootloader of Huawei devices!

Their GitHub

Main website

I tried to use their Windows app to unlock the bootloader, but can't figure out how to use it. I joined their Telegram group but they don't seem to be reading my messages at all, even though the group is active. Can someone here figure out how to make this work?

Edit: just wanted to mention that the T1A21L is technically kinda supported, probably they need someone to test.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] DionKill:
Alright, so, a few days have gone by and it seems like I managed to understand something by asking on their Telegram: in order to use that UNTESTED script I would have to open the back of the device and probably either sotter something to the mobo OR manage to connect in some way via ethernet...?

I could open it, but considering that my battery is probably swelled I'd rather wait and get a new one from somewhere before attempting to end my device with this untested script.

EDIT: I tried it and I'm working with their telegram on how to unlock the bootloader. You must open the device though.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] DionKill:
Guys, I need someone that has the unlocked bootloader to dump all of their system partitions so that everybody else can (via the HUT utility I mentioned above) be able to unlock their bootloaders. It seems to be the only way to do so, and if you do have it upload it somewhere like google drive and then post the link here.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Numislav:
Hi guys i have a Huawei T1-A21w and i would like to try this custom rom, anyone has a link for the latest version so i can download it and try to install it on the device. This is my first time trying to install an android device, but i am ready to learn.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Supernova76:
Hello. Link is not working. Can you share again?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Supernova76:
Can we use edl mode to unlock free?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Supernova76:
Hi.

I have opened my device now what do I do?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] DionKill:
For now nothing apart from checking the telegram group that i posted earlier. Nobody seems to figure out how to get root and/or unlock the device even in EDL. You can however proceed with an update to 5.1 if you so desire.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] DionKill:
Since everyone keeps on deleting all the files they upload, seems about right that I tried to help everyone by providing a folder with everything! Let me know if there's some things that are missing.

EDIT:

Android 5.1.1 and 4.4.4 are included. I'll add more stuff as I keep digging through. Also, there's a PDF to read as a tutorial.

Here ya go!
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] etm571:
To get the Android 5.1.1 Lolipop ROM installed on your MediaPad T1-A21(W/L):

Connect your device to a computer and enter fastboot mode(power + volume down button)

Download the platfroms tools from Android Developer here. Extract the zip file and open the folder in the terminal.

If

you device display "Phone Locked" in a green color, you have to disable OEM unlocking(AKA unlock the bootloader).

It won't be free

unfortunately. Here is the software and the guide here. You will need 4 credits wich will cost you 5 euros to get your device's unlock code. When you have the code, type this:

fastboot oem unlock <your unlock key>

Linux/macOS users may add ./ before every command

Correctly unlocked bootloader

FLASHING WHITOUT UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER COULD BRICK YOUR DEVICE!!!!!!

Now download the .img files for Android 5.1.1 here. You need both "boot.img" and "system.img". Place them in the platform-tools folder.

Type the command "fastboot flash system system.img" and wait. When it's done, type "fastboot flash boot boot.img". This one should be much quicker. When it's done reboot your device by typing "fastboot reboot". The device should reboot to the new Android rom.

Set the device up. Now you have fully functional Android 5.1.1 running. You can be done here, but if you like me needs Google Play Store, continue following.

Download these two apk's from another post on this forum here.

Enable USB debugging on your device by enabeling developer options. Go to settings and about tablet and tap repeatedly on build number. Go back to the settings home screen and tap on developer options. Find USB debugging and enable it.

On your computer: Type the command "adb install <APK name>. Do the same thing for both APKS. If the device asks, just click"install" or "accept". You should now have play store acces on the tablet.

Thanks to everyone that made these roms and recoverys and to @DionKill for uploading them!

If you have any questions, let me know. My model is the WiFi model (T1-A21W) but it should work on the LTE one too.

Im not responsible for any problems that may happen under or after the installation.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] DionKill:
Actually everyone seems to not understand this whole unlock the bootloader thing here.

YOU DON'T NEED TO UNLOCK IT TO INSTALL ANDROID 5.1.1.

I haven't unlocked it and I do have it! Just put the update.app file that I uploaded on a dload folder on the sd card with the other files that you must unzip and boot into recovery mode and upgrade. I wrote that in the instructions...

EDIT:

And if I may, @etm571 could you please upload the files of the partitions of the tablet on mega? If you do so, we could flash them on every tablet! Specifically aboot, hyp, rpm, sbl1 and tz.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] etm571:
Ah ok. I didnt have an sd card available.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] DionKill:
That's fine I just wanted to clarify! If you were wondering, the partitions are necessary to flash using EDL so that the tablet has the unlocked partitions in it, and no code is necessary to do that. So that makes it free for everyone (who has some patience and a PC)

Has anyone experienced buyer's remorse since getting G5 plus? If so, any particular reason? I can't make up my mind about whether I should get Sony's Xperia XA1 or Moto G5 Plus. (2GB/32GB).

I'm one of the many Verizon customers affected by the unintelligible calls with enhanced 4G enabled, so yes, this phone sucks. If your on Verizon don't come anywhere near this thing.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] Jrhotrod:
What exactly does enhanced 4G do? I'm on Verizon and on a budget, and this phone looks fantastic. Never heard of such a thing.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] robn30:
It's what allows Verizon's HD Voice feature. It's required to use data while on a call. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS PHONE IF YOUR ON VERIZON, PERIOD. You will regret it. Read this forum to understand the issue https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Moto-G...izon-very-poor-call-quality/m-p/3668953#M3408.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] Karlinski:
You should be able to disable it, unless Verizon blocks it, which wouldn't surprise me.

It works awesome in Sprint! No regrets. A great update from my S6 for sure!
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] robn30:
If I disable it then I have no data while on a call. I'm then back to what cell phones were 10 years ago. Verizon customers are the only ones suffering this issue. The phone is simply not fully comparable with Verizon and Moto won't own up to it and release a bulletin about it.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] long2ski:
I am not in love with it but here are some pluses: seems really fast, good processor speed

Almost no bloatware

Battery life is the best I have ever had on any device

Camera seems fine (see minuses)

Its rootable right now

Works well on at&t, but bought for possible switch to Verizon (if voice issues get solved)

Music sounds really good to my ear on tiny front facing speaker

Minuses: camera videos have lots of background noise, update is supposed to fix but Lenovo is slow to update, still on nougat 7.0 with January security patch

Camera has weird super sharpening of photos

Call volume is low

Poor slot for Sim and SD card with separate tool needed to access the slot, really awkward
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] SalamanderBoy:
XT1687 here. On Verizon. Not encountered any problems. Only regret is the over sharpening/over noise reduction of camera images (fixable with root) and no raw (currently not fixable in a tolerable way).

I will say I slightly miss the 5.5" screen of my Moto G4 plus and I wish I had bought black not gold ;). The fingerprint functions are awesome - you really notice that extra screen real estate.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] bvsbutthd101:
I've got this phone on verizon, with the exception of the poor voice quality which doesn't bother me too much since I don't really use my phone to make calls. I can't really make any complaints about the phone. It's hard to beat the performance and battery life at the price and it feels pretty solidly built. If you look around this phone in the 4gb variant can be had for under $300 (not including the amazon ad version).
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] matrixzone:
This phone two hardware problem which cannot be resolved through software. So avoid purchasing this phone. First problem noise background in Video recording. Second red color in Video recording. Both are known issue and accepted by Lenovo support team. They have accepted that the 2nd issue cannot be fixed. For the first one also I am expecting the same
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] paumanok:
I've had this phone for about a week now. I purchased it unlocked and activated the sim card Bestbuy gave me on the verizon site. I've only made two calls with it, both with LTE coverage and the calls sounded fine and were totally audible.

I've yet to feel any buyers remorse. I came from an old galaxy S4 with verizon bloat on it and it feels like a totally new experience. It's a budget phone so I look at it with that perspective and I couldn't be happier with what I got for what I paid.

The only thing I dislike is the camera in comparison to the GS4 is severely limited by software. I've been considering root on this, and after 4 years of rooting with rare updates, I want to try the unrooted life for a bit. If I do root, I'm sure the camera issue will be one of the first on my list of things to tackle.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] saqlainrattansi:
The noise is a software problem and the video recording thing really isnt as bad as you make it out to be unless you're regularly using the camera to take videos you wont have any problems. Its an easy compromise.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] robn30:
Are you sure you have HD Voice enabled on your account with Verizon? If you don't then you won't experience this issue. Also do you have the enhanced 4G toggled on under cellular networks?

---------- Post added at 05:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:16 PM ----------

Again as I quoted in my other post, are you sure you have HD Voice enabled on your account? The GS4 was not HD Voice capable I don't believe.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] SalamanderBoy:
Yes and yes.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] robn30:
Well that is interesting. There are hundreds of people having issues on Verizon with enhanced 4G. How long have you had your G5 Plus?
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] SalamanderBoy:
I was aware before I bought the phone and was pleasantly surprised not to have an issue. I bought it about 3 weeks ago from B&H.
