Root and unlock bootloader success for Huawei U8686 Prism II
T-Mobile branded Prism II (Huawei U8686) purchased with bootloader locked. Rooted using Cydia Impactor from Ubuntu Linux host computer via USB ADB connection. Bootloader unlocked from same host computer using required code from manufacturer. Huawei has a form on their website for bootloader unlock code requests but the U8686 is not included. I searched the world wide web and found a success story about contacting Huawei for the bootloader unlock code. Here's the (template) email request:

We need Custom Recovery for this before we can do anything. Also did you ever get to root this?

[Q] Can you Root Huawei g600 using Linux?

I'm looking to Unlock and Root my Huawei g600, (specifically the U8950N-51). However I'm using Linus OS, (Mint 14 KDE).
I've got the unlock code from Huawei, at least I hope because U8950N-51 because the international webpage doesn't recognize the U8950N-51.
Using Wine does not work as the unlock method just hangs looking for a device. (This method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36251172#post36251172 )
So, does anyone have an idea? technique?

Me too! I'm going to try and contact the Devs for twrp or Cwm and see if I can get a source code. Might be able to compile it myself for us when I get to my desktop. Is there support for lineage yet?
Your devices are AL/TL or LX1/LX2/LX3?

Fla-lx1. I've been actively looking for a way to root it safely, as huawei is going to stop unlocking bootloaders in less than 2 months. I did find a way to root it on a russian site, but i don't trust it.
I'd appreciate any development or help! thank you.

You're not with lucky, FLA-AL have 4 different Firmware releases so far and FLA-LX# have zero !
Without firmware released for your device you don't have a starting point.
@HatemB
what's your build ?
Example : Huawei P20L - ANE-LX1 8.0.0.126(C432)
Huawei Y9 - FLA-LX2 8.0.0.121 (C636)
@RememberZ
Only for FLA-AL or FLA-TL Firmware find with FirmwareFinder.
You need for your Device FULL-Update. Without FULL-Update it's very danger to flash anything.
If after flashing 1 error in phone - you have NO chance for self-repair !
@JamesBott
It's fla-lx1c185. I will wait in order to have a safer rooting process. But I do have a related question. I unlocked the bootloader, with no other modification. Will i receive updates normally? OTA and such.
@HatemB
if stock-rom installed OTA-Updates incomming "normaly" and you can install.
Only "point of attention" is : OTA-Updates need stock-recovery for install, not work with TWRP. That's all.
Bootloader unlockt OR lockt is the same : no differences for install.
i have Bootloader unlockt, TWRP installed, OTA-Updates incomming, i am copy Update to external-sd, flash stock-recovery and install the update. Thats work.
Me too need root and twrp
Actually, since Huawei is no longer providing Unlock Codes, it's almost impossible to find a solution. There's a chance with DC-Unlocker which calculates the Bootloader Unlock Code for 5 Euros or so. I was Asked for 20€ for the same service.

Root / unlock bootloader for Y6 SCL-L21

Hi,
I have a Huawei Y6 SCL-L21, Build SCL-L21C432B130. Still running a (totally outdated) Android 5.1.1, bootloader locked.
I want to unlock the bootloader, but the Huawei website to request the unlock key is down since a while. Great move, now I can basically throw the device away. I will definitely not buy a Huawei phone again for this bull**** move.
I read that some folks managed to get root with KingRoot v4.52 or v4.6, but that didn't work for me. Also I find that tool incredibly shady.
Is there any other option to get a custom rom on this device?

For unlock code bootloader use DC unlocker... for me it works... you have to pay but I guess it is only solution... then look at the posts in the Forum to know how to do it
I just remembered that I wanted to post this:
I can confirm that DC unlocker worked for me, when I used it to unlock the Huawei Y6 earlier this year.
is there a new (and maybe free) option for this phone in 2021?

To root a device's Android unlocking device's boot-loader ( assumed it's allowed by OEM/Carrier ) isn't necessary at all. Unlocking the boot-loader is only a prerequisite if you intent to flash a Custom Recovery and/or Custom ROM .
Anyway, you can unlock a phone's boot-loader if in its Android's Settings -> Developer options the option "OEM unlock" is offered.
ok if I have it and I have it activated. What would the next steps be? Thank you.
@gjoser
Look inside here.
ok friend I'm reviewing the page, the doubt I have is that the firmware that asks me for the process asks me for the stock rom. now this is the file that ZTE_A521_MT6580_ATNT_Mexico_20171114_5.1.zip gives me what I don't understand is why it gives me an MT6580 if the phone is qualcomm?

Ive been looking for countless ways to try rooting my phone and all of them either needed a custom recovery (needed to unlock the bootloader) or just need to unlock the bootloader to do any of the work. And with Huawei whos closed their services on giving the code to unlock it makes it nearly impossible and i cant pay for third party services.
Can anyone help me?
