[Q] flashing huawei C8511 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

how to flash huawei C8511 (mts mtag) if I by chance brick it during rooting?

I've tried z4root and the procedures from this forum for my phone MTS Mtag (Re-branded Huawei C8511 - India), but unfortunately it failed. Now I realize that, z4root v 1.3 can not root Android 2.2.2.
Waiting for an update of z4root.

SuperOneClickv2.2-ShortFuse
i tried google "SuperOneClickv2.2-ShortFuse.zip"
& it works & can be unrooted if required

Me too finally rooted my MTS Mtag (Huawei C8511)
Me too finally rooted my MTS Mtag (Huawei C8511) with SuperOneClickv2.3.3 from the Developer Site ShortFuse.Org.
I Followed these steps....
(1) Downloaded the latest version (on 5 May 2012) SuperOneClickv2.3.3 from the developer website ShortFuse.Org
(2) Unzipped the file downloaded in PC
(3) Connected my phone (I've already installed the essential drivers of my phone and using the "Hi Suite"(its a PC Suite) provided by Huawei)
(4) Click on Root button on the application
(5) After few seconds it shows my phone is Rooted. I've restarted my phone, and Now my phone is Rooted.
Simple steps, right???

RE: Flashing Huawei C8511
To answer the original question
Its very easy lol
Download the firmware here - C8511 V100R001C96B638
Then extract to a folder of your choice.
Copy the 'dload' folder to the root of your SD Card.
Turn your phone off completely (I always recommend removing the battery for 30 seconds or so)
Press your volume up and volume down keys and hold, then the power key and hold.
Your phone should display the update screen - see here - Step 8.
Leave it to finish and restart (may restart twice so don't worry lol)
Your phone should now be restored to when you started messing with it
BTW - You will need to re-root and this will delete EVERYTHING so only use if you've bricked it or royally screwed it up

I rooted this phone and removed all carrierware. I am proud to say I am the first guy to modify this phone and start 1x/Evdo on this phone. I somehow cannot make it to remove carrier name. Tried a lots in framework-res.apk but phone firmware is getting crashed and re-install is mandatory. Huawei c8511 is a low activity unrecognized device, we cannot expect anyone to help.

I have searched and found out over 100 custom roms for MTS Mtag-301 (known as Huawei C8500s in China). Was trying hard to flash recovery to swap custom roms. Got a recovery tool which can flash recovery to Huawei C8511 in few seconds. The steps are given below.
1. Download CWM Recovery C8500s 4.0.1.5 (English)
2. Extract the contents to any folder anywhere.
3. Switch off your phone and restart to go to fastboot mode. Press power+volume down keys continously for 10 seconds till the boot logo stays continously.
4. Open the extracted folder and run recovery.bat (batch file), this process will take a max 3 secs and the handset will reboot, let it settle down.
5. Again switch off and press power+volume up keys together and cwm recovery menu should appear.
6. Comming soon.. 2.3.5 and 4.0.3 versions for MTS Mtag 3.1 (Huawei C8511)

The one single rooting application for all Huawei phones and other devices. It is a chinese apk for those who can use it. I take no credits for this.

[Q] What happens when you flash your phone with the original stock ROM/any ROM?

So I'm trying to learn a little more about exactly what all these terms really mean, but when I was reading a guide about rooting the Huawei U8650 (Sonic), the first step was to flash the phone with the original ROM.
Now with all the big terms used and all the disclaimers about bricking your phone, I was just wondering what exactly this does. I currently plan to flash my Huawei U8651T (aka T-Mobile Prism) with the original ROM for Huawei U8650 because from what I've read, they are the same phone, except the U8651T has some tech upgrades compared to the U8650, so I just wanted to know exactly what would I be doing to my phone and what potential problems may arise.
Thanks
Edit: Here's the guide I was reading (Can't post the link, but here it is copy-pasted)
To root U8650 you should flash it with original Rom, Spanish devices dont need original rom to root dont know why it is but it is
ROM
It is necessary to download an official ROM
LINK
After you download it unrar it and dload folder copy to memory card
Path should look like \ dload \ update
to flash device you need to
turn it off
remove the battery for 5 seconds
put the battery back in
press the buttons "VOL +" + "VOL-" + "ON" (all three keys at once)
and will start automatic firmware upgrade
for 3-4 minutes cell is debranded
If you get error not found firmware that means that you did not put the firmware on the SD card like you should (I got it a few times) just off the device and repeat the procedure.
root
After flashing unbranded firmware we can throw at root
software needed for the root LINK
This is similar to debranding.
download root file
Put it on SD card
turn off the phone
remove the battery for 3 seconds
Press "VOL +" + "ON" (without the vol-)
When you open the "bios like" menu use the volume keys up/down to select the update from memory card called root
after this procedure just reboot the phone and you have rooted phone

Hi,
dont panic, I went thru exactly the same process right up till the TWRP and wipe. All you need to do is get hold of the stock rooted rom zip from here:
Then copy it onto your sdcard, for which you can connect to the computer using Advanced menu of the TWRP, and load the sdcard, which will connect as USB storage to PC.
Then once file is on sd card, just go back to main TWRP meny and select install option, then select the zip file you just copied.
Let TWRP do its stuff, then do a factory reset / then go into reboot system.
Wish you all the best. Once the ROM has installed, now you can search for the latest TWRP, install it then go on to latest kit kat roms in exactly the same way.
milind
hope he follows up with a thank you.

Hii,
Finally I reached on TWRP. Can I copy the Stock ROM Zip file in Memory Card and then install memory card on phone. And from Install in TWRP I can go the SD Card location and install it from there? Possible ?
Actually there was no battery on phone that is why the phone was not booting up to TWRP mode. Now I'm in TWRP and downloading Stock ROM. Hope it get fixed soon.
Many Thanks and Regards

That file is stock firmware inside the zip is a .tot file that can be renamed to .bin and used with lgnpst to bring the phone back to stock. You would need to be able to get into download mode
again. If you do use the g33k3r file you would need to root again then use Freegee app from play store to unlock bootloader and install recovery.

Hi,
Now I'm downloading ...
ttp://downloads.codefi.re/thecubed/lgoptimusg/att/firmware/LGE970AT-00-V10o-ATT-US-SEP-29-2012-0.zip
I guess this is original ATT LG E970 Firmware. I will copy it into my external Memory Card and then will insert into phone. After that using TWRP I'll be going to use this Zip file and after that factory reset. Am I correct ? Do I need to follow different steps ?
Let me know. Moreover do I need to unlock Phone again? When I received it was already in Unlocked State. So installing the above link firmware will lock it again? Or should I proceed with the link I posted earlier, I mean this ..
ttp://downloads.codefi.re/g33k3r/LGE970AT-01-V20j-310-410-MAR-08-2013.zip
And Rename File to .bin instead of .tot and Make ZIP it again ?
Please let me know.
PS ; I'm still Downloading The firmware from Ist link.

[Q] Huawei G610 u20 HELP NEEDED!!!

I successfully rooted my huawei g610 u20, and installed a couple of rooted apps. Last night I installed the Root toolkit app for changing my phone's fonts and it never booted since then. I cant get passed by the boot animation and it gets stuck on the huawei logo. I have no idea what to do. I googled up a couple of solutions with no luck. I did find one or two roms but I don't know how to flash them since I don't have a custom recovery installed. All I have is the Android system recovery <3e> (which I can activate by pressing the vol up + power button). But it wont let me install any rom from sd. Help would really be appreciated guys. ;(
Search for your phone firmware on google, copy the dload folder on your SD card (using a sd card writer) and press the power button and the vol up and the vol down at the same time

[Q] Xperia x2 bricking

Last night, i accidentally swiped to restore to an older ROM that i had. Not meaning to do this, and beginning to panic, i attempted to stop it, while it was still at 0%. I did this by holding the red button down. As i have now realised how stupid that was, i am wondering if there is any chance to fix it. It is now stuck on the Sony logo. Although i have seen many problems here, i cant find anyone that had the same problem as me. I was running the existenz ROM, and the ROM i was accidentally restoring to was the official ROM. Please help me
Thank you

[Q] Bricked Lenovo TAB 2 A7 10F

Hi,
I bought lenovo tab 2 A7-10f for my brothers birthday.
After one week of using it he brought it back to me with words: I broke it.
He rooted (Kingo software) the Android system and than he cleaned some system apps which caused the crash of the system.
Now when I start it the boot stops in lenovo welcome animation and I can't get to boot mode anymore (pushing volume and start button) the system freeze in welcome screen with lenovo and android logo - no martian.
When I tried to connect by ADB the device appeared to be "offline" and I can't reach it.
Can you help me, please?

You need lenovo flash tool and latest rom. T2-A7-10F_USR_S041_150112_ROW or another.
power off your tablet.
push volume down and connect with your computer.
tablet will start and show he is charching.
Start flash tool. load the scatter file. In above rom it is : MT8127_Android_scatter.txt
once loaded push download.
some files will go to your tablet. If flash tool quickly stops , power off your tablet, but leave the usb cable.
Once powerd off , flash tool will continue.
when het is finished , you will see this on your computer.
disconect and restart tablet.
2nd possibility : power off you tablet
hold 3 buttons. Poweron , + and -
when tablet vibrates , release powerbutton but do not release + and - button
now your tab will start in recovery. here the tab says : no command and you push the powerbutton to see the menu.
there you can choose : wipe data/factory reset
after reset choose to reboot.
if this factory reset does not restore you tab , you must flash the rom.
choosing with keys :
with - button you go down
with +button you select
with power button menu will show
Can someone help me with a link to the stock rom ?
Try SAMmobile.com (you will have to make a free account) when you have made your account click the firmware button at the top of the screen then type in your phone model number. For example SM-G361F the choose your country. Then in the filter box seach your network provider ie. O2 then click download. Once you have downloaded it unzip the file in a folder. Boot your phone into odin/download mode. Click BL or AP it dosent really matter then choose your file and wait for the blue bar on your phone to finish. Then it should restart
And should be stock rom. If your brick your device please note you have full responsibilty over your device. If you do mess up and brick your device just repeat the steps above.
Try resetting the phone from recovery.
Enter into recovery(use possible combinations of power+vol up or power+vol down or power+vol up+vol down) and factory reset the phone. This might help.

That's amusing. they have a lenovo tablet and you're telling them to look for their stock firmware on a site for samsung devices and to restore the device with a program that is made for samsung devices, lol.

HERE YOU GO
I am not sure how this works but this is the downloable file any tablet tab 2 A7 10F gets when it's going to upgrade from kitkat 4.4 to lollipop 5.0 so I guess this will work on any of your tablets. This versión is supposed to be for latinamerica but It holds many languagues if any of you need others than Spanish or English.
