This is a guide to debloat the KIW-AL10 and make stock Chinese usable.

First download Minimal adb and fastboot from here and install it.

Download HISuite and use that to install huawei drivers

Next Make sure developer options by hitting build number 7 times then open developer options and make sure usb debugging is activated in the developer options.

Plug phone into computer and install drivers, any unknown device will be adb so right click and select choose driver from list then select android devices then adb interface, always choose the older driver version for this phone.

One you have that installed you need to unlock your bootloader a great guide is here

Once you have unlocked the bootloader download install twrp using minimal adb and fastboot

First reboot into fastboot..

First check the device is present. using the command :adb devices

then boot into bootloader using the command : adb reboot-bootloader

if that doesn't work turn off device then switching on quickly hold down the volume down button while inserting the cable into the device

The device should then have a white screen with a robot and say unlocked in green writing

find the recovery image you downloaded and if its a different name rename it twrp.img so you know which one it is, files everywhere can get quite messy !

Now right click on the minimal adb link on the desktop and click open file location..

Now put the twrp.img file into the folder with the minimal adb files and close the window.

now flash the recovery using the command: fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

Voila if everything is sucessful your phone now has twrp recovery !

Next use the following command: adb reboot recovery, if that doesnt work force a shutdown by holding the power button then let the phone boot while holding down the volume up button, it should boot into recovery.

Next MAKE A BACKUP THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT AND WHEN ITS DONE COPY IT TO A SAFE DRIVE DO NOT KEEP IT JUST ON YOU SD CARD IN CASE YOUR CARD DIES ! BECAUSE OF THE NATURE OF THIS PHONE AND THE FACT THAT YOU CANT FLASH NON VOLTE ROMS ON THIS PHONE THIS IS YOUR ONLY WAY OF RESTORING THE PHONE SO GUARD IT LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT !

Now get a cup of coffee and have a break its not good to rush things

Now to root your phone..

Finish your coffee.

Download supersu from here

Put the zip onto your phones sd card and boot into recovery, select install and select the supersu zip and let it install, once done reboot the phone, it may reboot a few times thats normal dont panic, once the phone has finished booting check you have the su app installed, if so now we can do the rest of the stuff.

Next download google play store from here and install it

After opening the play store and signing in you will probably be told to update google services, let it do it then reboot the phone

Next using the play store download root explorer

Next stage is to make the dialer English. and remove yellow pages.

Using root explorer navigate to /cust/alltelecom/cn/prop

hard press on the file local.prop and select open in text editor using the 3 dots on the top right

Look for the following lines of code ro.product.locale.region=CN or similar

Change this to ro.product.locale.region=GB (or whatever your location is such make sure the country code is in CAPS )

Save the file

Now navigate to /system and open build.prop in text editor and change the following lines of code so they end in County matching code not cn

Example

ro.product.locale.region=GB (or whatever your location is such )

ro.product.locale.language=en (or whatever your location is such )

ro.product.locale.region=GB

Go slow there is lots of lines there but you will see them if you take your time

select save and exit from root explorer then reboot.. viola the chinese and yellow pages is gone !

After reboot you may get a baidu warning about location tracking, dont panic we will kill that bugger next !

Next install system app safe remover from the play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jumobile.manager.systemapp&hl=en_GB I always use this as its simple and keeps a backup of the removed app (just in case of problems)

Use that to remove all the chinse apps from the system including hivoice or it will interfere with google assistant, they are self explanatory

as they are all in chinese !

Next remove hi app

hi care

huawei id

network location (this is the one causing the nag screen dont worry work it will still work.

then reboot phone, there should be no more warnings about baidu location.

Now to get services google working.

You my have notice that despite installing a google account you contacts havent synced. we will fix that now..

To get google contacts to sync you need to install google contacts sync adaptor 6.0.1 from here

After you have installed it open up system apps and check it permision contacts is allowed, also open the battery setting and check it runs at boot and while screen is off, if there are no options for that ignore that bit and exit.

while you are there check google play services permission are all on especially contacts then reboot

Now install the google app from the app store

next install google assistant from the play store

now install google photos from the play store

Next install google chrome from play store

next install google calendar from the play store

next install google plus from the play store

next install google maps from the play store

next install youtube from the play store

Next install gboard from the play store

Then when all is done reboot the phone

After reboot check all the permissions of the apps and make sure all the google apps run at boot and keep running after screen off or they wont sync etc then reboot again.

Change horrible huawei keyboard to gboard in language settings

Open the google app and setup google and check your contacts have synced. set up the rest of your settings

Get a decent launcher as the huawei one sucks I use nova launcher prime its worth every penny but the free one is still good

Open settings app and click advanced, here you can change default launcher and select default app setting then select assistance and voice input, selectassist app as google select use text from screen and select use screenshot

I think that pretty much it, the rest you should be able to do yourself, have fun and good luck, any questions just ask.

I wrote this guide as there is very little info on the AL10,

Happy modding !
