[GUIDE] Huawei Ascend Y300 IMEI Hack & Firmware update

WARNING: I WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE OF ANY FAULT THAT MAY OCCUR TO YOUR DEVICE. YOU`RE DOING THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Okay so after you`ve accepted taking the risk, let`s start...​
So,i was spending alot of time trying to make The "OEMINFO-Hack-Tool-v1" to work, I discovered a Simple And way safer procedure...
MAKE SURE YOUR DEVICE IS ROOTED!( Or it won`t work )​
1. Download The App ( 5iromtoolbox ) in the attachment & install it in your rooted device...
NOTE: I recommend The "Kingo App" for rooting, its way quick and simple...
2. Click on IMEI backup...
3. After Its completion, connect your phone in MTP ( Media Transfer ) mode, browse to SDCARD
4. Copy the whole folder somewhere in your PC ( Backups are Always Important )...
5. Now, browse to SDCARD/5irom/imeibackup/ and click copy on the file "5.img"
6. Back to SDCARD ( root ), Create a folder named "OEMINFO-BACKUP" & paste "5.img" file in there...
7. Open Up "OEMINFO-Hack-Tool" folder & run "2-oeminfo-hack-windows"...( This time it should Be successful, if u had troubles...)
NOTE: If it says "ADB/Shell denied superuser access", Change your superuser App to SuperSU...
8. After completion, Copy the "Dload" folder of your firmware to the SDCARD & and Turn off your device...
9. Hold "Volume up + Volume Down", then hold the power button ( The Firmware Update process Will start )...
10. After Completion the device will Boot up, But!, Unrooted... ( If your dial *#06# you`ll notice a Blank IMEI )
11. To fix that, Root the Device ( Kingo App recommended) & install the "5iromtoolbox" app again...
12. Go to your "file manager" app and Copy the "5irom" folder to the "internal storage"...
13. Launch "5iromtoolbox" and restore your IMEI...
14. After Completion, RESTART! the device, ( It will do a Hard Reset )
15. After Reboot, Dial *#06#, this time the IMEI would be back to Original....
AND THATS ALMOST IT!
HIT THANKS IF THIS HELPED YOU.​

did you follow the procedures well?
was your phone rooted?
is it a Y300?
where were you in the steps until the error occured?
try to find ways to unbrick your device, because thats seems to be whats going on...
ps: I don`t really use the device no more, so it be pretty hard to help you with that.

ill probably send it to service but thanks
fastboot doesnt work, twrp is gone, only accesible mode is download mode
my phone is a rooted huawei y300(EU) with twrp recovery and a oficial rom, it failed after the step where i have to reboot, i can read the imei using dc unlock and its not 0 or my original imei, and i think that might be the issue, idk where i messed up, tried using dsf cdma tool but dont really know how to use it and the tutorials out there on the web dont work for me, anyways thanks for the reply
ps. i got a new one to but its a waste to just let it collect dust

Hi it didn't work... I think this is for J7 plus only and please Help after flashing the custom recovery my boot logo of C8 is gone.... Please help

I have tried to install using odin and it says on the phone a chinese message,which i translated with google, that read your phone needs to be unlocked to install a custom operating system, even though i enabled oem unlock and usb debugging. I used viper4android on my old phone and its annoying that im not able to install it on my new one.
Please help me when you get time:good:

the twrp cannot mount data partition unless format it first. and my device is sm c7100.

I can't install twrp in the first place.
How did you guys install it.

I managed to install twrp with odin after unlocking bootloader with crom service and disabling frp lock but when i try to boot into it there's nothing. It just boots into android. Tried installing it again. I tried adb reboot recovery but that booted to the official samsung recoveryb even though i installed twrp. How to fix this??

How to use the TWRP with Android Oreo?

Brother how do you manged to unlock bootloader...? Please share with us

google play gives an error, the installation screen is not constantly installing

Hi everyone,
For those who have tried, could you please confirm whether the files are working or not.
Since there is no steps and instructions, can someone post the the procedure/code used for flashing kernel and TWRP?
Thanks

I finally tested everything out. Please feel free to take the command for reference.
Disclaimer:
1. Warranty would be voided and I am not responsible for any:
- Bricked device
- Data loss. So PLEASE BACKUP and you will definitely lose all your data during the rooting process.
2. I am not the one who build the files such as Kernel and TWRP img
Donation:
- BUT I am the one spending the time to test the files out. So, if you are happy with my work, please donate. I am happy for whatever (I mean the amount) support you give me.
- Bitcoin address: bc1qzvv3wrfj0furpzhdfxvzp07gy7whan907045gn
Aim:
1. Since Samsung Galaxy C8 has only 64GB of internal storage, 1000% sure it is not enough for using in 2021 onwards -> We need data and obb to SD card
2. MediaTek Hellio P20 is not powerful enough for using in 2021 onwards -> Need some CPU tweak
-> So, IT CAN’T BE USED WITHOUT ROOT
3. Makes Android great again
Summary:
- Both TWRP and Kernel, posted by Travis82 are definitely working for Samsung Galaxy C8 since I have tested them out and using them but they are only for Android 7.1.1 and not for stock Android 8.1.
- The files are NOT tested with Custom Rom.
- The reason why I said the Kernel is also for Android 7.1.1 because you need TWRP for flashing.
Procedure (For Android 8.1 user) NOT RECOMMENDED:
- First of all, Android 8.1 is SERIOUSLY NOT RECOMMENED for Samsung Galaxy C8 as nothing much you can do even though you are rooted. (i.e. XInternalSD causes bootloop)
- As mentioned above, both TWRP and Kernel posted by Travis82 are not compactable with Android 8.1
- For Android 8.1 user, it is recommended to downgrade to Android 7.1.1 with Odin.
- If you still want to use Android 8.1 and root, follow the guide in the link below using Magisk. Just follow the section for Samsung is good enough:
https://www.xda-developers.com/root/amp/
Procedure (For Android 7.1.1 user) RECOMMENDED:
Unlock bootloader + Enable developer mode -> USB debug + Prepare a SD card and put both Kernel and Magisk zip to the SD card
Applying TWRP recovery
Compress the recovery image to a .tar archive using 7-Zip
Install 7-zip
Right-click on recovery.img
“7-zip”
“Add to archive”
Select “tar” for “Archive format”
Flashing the recovery tar archive in Odin
Download, install and open Odin (I use Odin3 v3.13)
Unclick/Deselect “Auto Reboot” and “F. Reset Time” under “Options”
Enter Download mode
Power off, Power button + Volume Down + Home button, connect your PC
Flash the recovery tar archive in AP slot
When done flashing, unplug the device and enter recovery mode.
Power button + Volume Up + Home button, when the screen goes blank quickly, Power button + Volume Down + Home button.
If you can’t boot to recovery in this way, use ADB. “adb reboot recovery”
Applying new Kernel and Magisk
If storage can’t be mounted in TWRP (i.e. 0MB), consider changing the SD card or see this post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...rnal-storage-0mb-in-twrp-permanently.3830897/ To be honest, there are lots of ways to fix this problem. Find the one best fit for you.
Flash Kernel zip in TWRP as usual
Flash Magisk zip in TWRP as usual
Reboot and wait, it takes quite a long time to boot
NOT DONE yet. You will probably face a serious problems in this stage:
Wifi passwords and Bluetooth connections can’t be saved
To solve this problem -> Install “Libsecure_Storage” in Magisk
DONE
Want Xposed? -> Search for the one for Android 7.1.1
Want app data to SD card? -> ExSDCard Access Enabler (Magisk) + XInternalSD (Xposed)
Want app obb to SD card? -> ExSDCard Access Enabler (Magisk) + Obb on SD (Xposed)

My C8 is 8.1 tried resetting back to factory, still 8.1
Noted your comment re ODIN, but I use Linux, Odin seems Win only.
Have successful rooted and installed Lineage on an old Note 3, but I didn't have to downgrade that!
Can you give me please, some guidance how I can return this wretched thing back to 7.1?
Actually, I am suspecting return is the wrong word as it may have come with 8.1 installed.
I'm a bit lost at this point.

After flashing this there is no need to press that key combo (VOL up key + Power + Bixby) to boot into Magisk mode. Just after flashing this image your S10+ will automatically boot up in the Magisk mode. And that key combo (VOL up key + Power + Bixby) will be used to boot your phone directly into recovery mode.

S10+ Exynos or Snapdragon ? or work for both ?

for s10 + exynos version

Just 3 things i wanna ask.
1. But you didnt mention twrp version?
2. Even if we already are on twrp' latest version we need to wipe because its prepatched?
3. We shouldnt ever factory reset or just after first installation? But we can factory reset from settings?

1. Latest Twrp 3.3.1-7
2. if you have a twrp installed then kindly do not flash it.
3. Kindly make a backup from twrp recovery before making a factory reset in case any thing goes wrong

Sorry for such a rudimentary question but are the adb commands done individually after "su" or is that one command line too long to fit in the box? Sorry, I've just been fighting with getting twrp on my phone since last night. Root works fine but after flashing patched img file I can never get it to go into twrp. Always goes to stock recovery even though flash is successful. I originally thought I was messing up the key combo but I have my suspicions. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

UPDATE××Got TWRP to boot the first time. First time system booted fine but I lost root. Did a fresh root per magisk install guide and reflashed twrp.img in root shell. Got twrp to boot again but it continues to boot loop. I only wiped internal with no factory reset. I know it's probably something I'm doing. Any suggestions?

It seems magisk not installed properly. Download latest firmware from Carotix folder Here it have prepatched recovery prepatched ap you need not to do anything you need to reflash recovery n system ...use odin flash patched ap cp bl and use HOME_CSC (you will not use any data apps or anything) Just flash using odin everything will work fine.
also download multidisabler from ian's multidisabler thread HERE put it in phone as need to flash after boot into Twrp!
instructions copied from Carotix thread
Download 4 files from OTA/ODIN FILES then follow this guide:
and put the last Multidisabler in your phone
1- Turn off the device and put it in download mode with the bixby / vol down button and inserting the cable to the PC at this point open Odin remove the check mark from autoreboot
2- Load the AP .tar file downloaded from OTA together with the BL the CP and the HOME_CSC .... if you put the CSC you lose all the data
3- Start the flash and wait
4- At the end you disconnect the phone from the cable and with the power / vol down keys force the switch off as soon as the screen goes black press vol + / bixby / power to go in recovery and don't leave the keys until you see the twrp screen, continue to keep the 3 keys pressed and wait for the recovery to start again
5- Flash the multidisabler then from the main screen choose recovery reboot to boot rooted/magisk system.

Thanks for your help. I had to do it a little unconventional to get it working. None of the prepatched recoveries that are included in all these firmware downloads would work for me using Odin. Only flashing this twrp.img in a root shell would work. I finally just flashed Beyond rom zip after getting into twrp along with the disabler zip. Boots into rooted system with no problems and I can boot into twrp with no problems as well. Oh yea, I flashed Beyond over ASG8 also. Not sure why I could never get ASH6 to work.

Hello kkrraazzyy,
can you please explain how to install your twrp.
I already habe twrp installed. an this rom. --> https://forum.xda-developers.com/s10-plus/development/rom-carhdrom-1-t3938987
But a want to install your twrp to boot always with Magisk without to press any key.
I need your help please.

Any proper YouTube guide video for these things, as flashing/rooting became so complicated with so many steps.... Thank you!

So from my understanding this is the first and only way to have the phno boot into the patched recovery automatically without needing top physically press the button combo? Or have I missed something Was just expecting there to have been a lot more attention that's all.
This has actually what has been one of the main reasons holding me back from rooting as it reminds me back in the day of tethered and untethered jailbreaks for iPhones.
Except that this is just a inconvenience while tethered would make the phone practically unusable.

Is there an app i can use to backup and restore my kik chats? I got a new phone, a Samsung Galaxy 10+ and want to tramsfer my kik chats and save data for Digimon Heroes! to my new galaxy 10+ i dont have root on either phones is there a app (apk) or one i can downlod on my laptop to make the backup of them so i can bring them over. Please i only have a dew days left to transfer my number over and have my old phone shut dwn by my previous provider. I need to do it on the next 2 days.

Use Smart Switch by Samsung, it includes the possibility of transferring all your data and settings using a USB cable. I transferred everything from my old phone to this one (S10+ SM-G975F). I don't know if it will work on non-Samsung devices, but it's worth a try.

I have android 10 on my s10+, will this twrp work with android q?

possible to boot without root permissions too?

:good:

Hi @kkrraazzyy , could you show us how you did it?
because @ianmacd https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...covery-twrp-3-3-0-galaxy-s10-exynos-t3924856/
latest version does not seem to provide this awesome function.

Is there anyway to root A50s ?

Sorry if i posted to wrong place but i cant find any forum for a50s
i saw a50 have root now but cant see any root method for a50s
is it because this phone just release and doesnt have root yet?

It may be very similar or maybe even exactly the same to the way we on the A50 gain root access, however, you've just gotta wait for someone to take that first step. I mean you could try but if I were you I'd wait for someone else to try first.

Complete Guide for Rooting Samsung Galaxy A50 using Magisk ( tested on SM-A505F ), you need Latest Magisk Manager and Stock ROM :
* Download the firmware Galaxy A50 (SM-A505F).
* Unzip the firmware and copy the AP tar file to your device. It is normally named as AP_[device_model_sw_ver].tar.md5. Copy AP tar file and MagiskManager-v7.3.2.apk to your phone.
* Install Magisk Manager ( MagiskManager-v7.3.2.apk ) on your phone.
* In Magisk Manager: Install → Install → Select and Patch a File
* Select the AP tar file. Magisk Manager will patch the whole firmware file and store the output to [Internal Storage]/Download/magisk_patched.tar. Copy magisk_patched.tar the tar file to your PC
* Enter Download Mode : Turn Power Off. Press and hold Volume Up key + Power Key,* When Samsung Logo appears release Power Key only, keep pressing Volume Up key until Android Recovery Mode Appears. Select Wipe data / Factory reset, Select Reboot to bootloader.* Connect your Samsung Galaxy to PC using USB Cable.
*Flash magisk_patched.tar as AP in ODIN, together with the BL, CP and HOME_CSC files. Never flash only an AP file, as Odin can shrink your /data file-system if you do. Important: Uncheck “Auto Reboot” in Options!
* Magisk is now successfully flashed to your device! Several steps before you can properly use the device.
* Reboot to the stock recovery to factory reset the device.
* Full data wipe is mandatory! Do not skip this step. Press and hold Volume Down + Power Key, when the screen blank quickly press and hold Volume Up + Power key, when Samsung Logo appears release Power key only, keep pressing Volume Up key in the Android Logo screen with text "Erasing", when screen blank again Press and Hold Volume Up + Power key.* When Samsung Logo appears release Power Key only, keep pressing Volume Up key until Android Recovery Mode Appears. Select Wipe data / Factory reset. Select Reboot system now.
* After the device is booted up, do the usual initial setup. It need more time and patient. After finished,* You will see Magisk Manager app in app drawer.* If not, Install it manually.
* Connect the phone to Internet, open Magisk Manager.* Magisk Manager will ask to do additional setups. Let it do its job and the app will automatically reboot your device.
* Done! You can use Root Checker to check it, Enjoy!

It look like not easy for pressing key combination, so you need read and watch.
Finally I can root my galaxy A50 after 2 months later.

Yes there's an option to root that device. I am a Samsung a50s user myself. This device was rooted for almost a year now. Let me know if you are still decided to gain root access on that device so I can send you apps needed, will walk you thru the whole process. Attached is a screenshot of my A50s installed with Custom ROM ( Havoc OS android 11)

Hello
Mohd Masab
It's my first Samsung .I had 4-5 Sony ,easy to root ,a Doogee S90 (NEVER BUY THAT !).
Is your method safe ,have U seen bad effects ,what fonctions did U lost ?
Bye .
Fred

Okay, so I completed the whole process, here are my observations:
The method provided above almost works. The problem is, that everytime you reboot to system when you are not rooted, TWRP will encrypt your files. So the solution is, that you have to format data and then install dm_verity and Magisk after each other, without a reboot! After that, you can boot to your system and set up your phone.

I did what you said but still encrypts after reboot. Latest Magisk.

Hi, I am having problems with internal storage, I can not create folders and there are applications that I can not download, any solution?

Could someone tell me if it is compatible with the November update CTK1?
I have managed to root the phone, you can install everything and configure it, but after turning off the phone, I can't start it does bootloop, and it returns to the prompt "The phone is not running Smasung official software ..." never finishes starting? What do you recommend me to do?

I reloaded the original rom and did the procedure again, taking into account the clarification of installing install dm_verity and Magisk after each other, without a reboot, and everything went well!

Hello abraxasboot !
So,for you ,the only problem was that U had to flash the files one after the other without rebooting ?
No other problem since that ?
Is the phone reacting well ?
Where did U find the official rom ?
Thanks and have a good day !

It worked for me but i can't access themes and other system apps
Is there any solution to access themes on rooted a51

I was unable to flash and reboot into TWRP recovery after applying the official Samsung update from March, which updates Android from 10 to 11. Reboot into recovery would not work and I would always end in a boot loop.
I had to downgrade to Samsung's official Android 10 and used the binaries from January for that: https://samfrew.com/es/model/SM-A515F
After that, flashed TWRP again and was able to boot into recovery right away as it should be

If I follow the steps and flash twrp-a51-3.5.0_10-1_ianmacd.tar file using Odin I get an message:
'Only official release binaries are allowed to be flashed (RECOVERY)
The phone was recently purchased from Samsung official store, and has android 10 official firmware from feb 1st installed
Any clue please?

hey guys i used a lyf wind 1 to flash lineage os using twrp ..... so i wiped the previous os and unknowingly flashed another unsupported version of twrp ...when entering to recovery menu its all blank .... now i have no os and recovery ...... i couldnt flash stock rom because my device is not recognised as qualcomm port .............
pls any help ????

I have a working 11R twrp and all the DRM passers mejestics etc. to run.. you can boot the os after that that is the standard Samsung OS. np u can install LINAGE os 18.1 Andys march release, the Mejestics meaning u can patch root without Needing to part the orignal Firm and copy boot.img over. etc
Here is Link With GSI as Well and 2.5 GUI Twrp working and UI3.0
