Cwm7???
I am running cwm4 (I have galaxy fit)...and up till now only cwm5 and cwm4 is available for my device!!!
Maybe you are talking about cm7 (cyanogenmod7)...that is a rom, cwm is a recovery...
Even my device doesn't have official cm on it (there are only unofficial ones)...
So you will have to be patient

2.3.7 was for nexus.

i have a better solution... there's a .zip from the skin1980 thread. each time you need clockwork, just go in recovery mode and apply the zip, it will boot the CWM

Root att fusion 2 step by step walkthrough

Q1.*How do I root my device? ***IF THIS HELPS YOU HIT THE THANKS BUTTON!! ITS LITERALLY ONE CLICK!***
Step 1: Download this file.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/pr70fitqpq9c4l6/Huawei-Fusion-2-Recovery-Root.zip
Step 2 ut the Huawei Fusion 2 Recovery Root.zip on your desktop.
Step 3 : Download and install "Huawei Fusion 2 U8665 ADB drivers.rar" from here (password is xda-developers.com)
https://www.dropbox.com/s/z70julkgz1c9hss/Huawei-Fusion2-U8665-adb-drivers.rar
Install by opening .rar and running "DriverSetup.exe".
Step 4 :Make a folder called "Huawei Fusion 2" on your desktop.
Step 5 :Extract Zip from step 2 into your fusion 2 folder.
Step 6 :Turn off phone.
Step 7 :Reboot fastboot by holding Volume Down and Power buttons simultaneously for 10-20 seconds.
(It will freeze at ATT logo. This is fastboot, it's a freeze to be happy about)
Step 8 :Connect phone to computer.
Step 9 : Open the folder you made and open the extracted zip (if you haven't extracted do this now)
Step 10 : Double click "Run Me"
Step 11 :Type "fastboot devices" and hit enter this will confirm if you are connected via fastboot (you are) if your connected it will list some numbers and letters and the words fastboot next to the numbers and letters.
Step 12 :Now flash modified recovery by typing "fastboot flash recovery recovery.superrecovery.img" into the "run me" window and hitting enter.
Step 13 :Unplug after the process runs says finished. And gives you the total time.
Step 14 :Remove back of phone and take out battery for 10-15 seconds.
Step 15 :Reinsert battery hold volume up and power button simultaneously until it boots into recovery (15-20 seconds of holding both buttons)
Step 16 :Reboot Device by selecting the "reboot device" option with the volume buttons (it should already start with reboot highlighted) so just press the power button to reboot.
Step 17 :Grab a beer and relax as your device reboots with SuperSU (main root app)!

My note is with samsung being repaired. Got this phone as an alternative to an old iphone 3g I had. I was happy as hell to see your and RFE's root methods. Wanted to make a guide that was noob friendly, as I imagine many folks buying this phone are new to android, in my situation, or ona budget.
Point is I wanted a step by step guide to be accessible to everyone. Thanks for the support roboticbuddy, and thanks for your initial work.
I am in the process of getting a CWM custom recovery image for the device, and then CYANOGEN MOD!

Oh god ive been hacking and deving a new phone the past 3 days. Ill look for those files again and tell you where I found them. I can post a dropbox link if you need access?
The postrecoveryboot.sh I believe has something to do with rebooting "post" recovery maybe it will fix the wifi off upon reboot issue?
The fstabs file I dont even have a stab at.. sorry robotic buddy.

working CWM
Hi,
I was able to install the CWM recovery of Y201 from the below forum on the Fusion 2 using the fastboot flashing recovery steps for Fusion2. ":/fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" with the Y201 recovery file saved in the same folder.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35908322
even tho the Y201 recovery is little slower on the Fusion2, I was able to backup the rom, install new custom roms of Y200 and restore the original carrier rom.
The y200 roms I installed and successfully booted into fusion 2 were:
1) CleanBaseRom#5.zip (same as carrier rom with out most of att junk)
2)ICS_OS_20130203.zip (same as carrier rom with ICS theme, had problem with gallery and screen would not turn on from sleep)
Didnt see much difference so restored the carrier rom back.
Hopefully this helps

We are not specific and are not spoon feeding you because this not done that way. You HAVE to spend time and learn what is what. The answers you need and the help you need are already here. If you're expecting download links and screenshots you shouldn't be modifying your phone. The whole point of this community is to learn and share the knowledge - not spoon feed.
Go to the TWRP thread, read up and download the tar that you need to flash through odin. Look for the MJ5 bootloader (hint: look up Wanam's ROM thread, that's one of the many places). After you got these two, boot to TWRP and flash the ROM.
Finally, as long as your phone gets into download mode, it's not bricked. And you got to do something incredibly foolish to make it not boot into bootloader. That said, it would be prudent to learn and act rather than blindly execute what you read - I said the same thing in not so many words in my reply to you in the DN3 ROM thread.

If you have used ODIN before to flash anything using this computer you are trying with now, you don't need to reinstall the drivers.

Ok. Thank you very much . There is one problem. I think you guys didnt understand that the computer finds the phone but Odin doesnt i think i must install the drivers for odin to find it. Can someone tell me if ican install the drivers while i am in download mode and how am i supposed to do it ? maybe theres a tutorial somewhere. I am really sorry for not being good with this. But its because i bought the phone already rooted. I know i already took lots of your time but i know how to do everything accept odin doesnt find my phone and thats the biggest problem.

Samsung tab 3 10.1 GT- 5210 stock firmware issue

Hi all,
I’m having an issue with a Samsung tab 3 10.1 and done help would be much appreciated. I have tried to follow done guides but haven’t been that successful.
I have purchased a tab that is stuck in mgm/retail mode and the seller is no longer getting back to me to return it.
I believe that is a way to use Odin and flash the device in download mode.
The problem I have is finding the file to do this with? A point in the right direction would be much appreciated

Here is some stock http://www.mediafire.com/download/9mbmw4gtrfli6ef/STOCK-GTP5210-4.2.2.zip

Thanks for the reply, i've downloaded what you have sent over but i can't find a .tar file to send to the device via odin.
I'm trying to reflash the device to factory settings.

This ROM is in a format supported by TWRP.
So you could in short:
- install TWRP using ODIN https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...covery-twrp-3-x-samsung-galaxy-tab-3-t3340938
- install ROM using TWRP, you can install stock or custom ROM

I found another site with roms https://samsung-firmware.org/pl/model/GT-P5210/, maybe here will be the ROM in format supported by ODIN.
Did reflash the device to factory settings help?

Ok so i've tried to install TWRP using Odin - No Joy
So now i'm unsure where to go from here as i cant put TWRP on the device to install the ROM?
No the flash did not reset to factory settings, this is the trouble im having no rom will flash the device, feel like banging my head against a wall.

Which guide did you follow? I am asking becouse it should work, strange.
Steps in short:
- Enter download mode Volume Down + Home button + Power button.
- Start ODIN
- Flash TWRP
- Enter recovery mode Volume Up + Home button + Power button
- Flash ROM from zip
Or with ROM in ODIN compatible format:
- Enter download mode Volume Down + Home button + Power button.
- Start ODIN
- Flash ROM

Ok so I have done exactly that with two stock rims and I’m still having the same issue. Don’t know where to go from here. Could I root it, would that work?

I ran out of ideas

It’s really frustrating! There must be a way, I’m sure
