1. Install ZTE USB driver first: Goto Settings -Developer options - enable Driver CDROM. Connect your phone to the computer and install driver package from ZTE. 985root.7z package has also ZTE USB driver but it didn't work on my Win 7, so I installed drivers from phone.
2. Turn off CDROM mode and enable USB debugging mode and Unknown sources
3. Unzip 985root.7z file to any folder
4. Run xxxroot.bat and command window appears. Script will stop and ask you to press any key (in Chinese)
5. Check that your phone is connected and press any key. Script will upload files to your phone
6. There will be popup window on your phone. Click Restore my data
7. Phone will then boot up but keep it connected to PC and wait until it is fully booted
8. if there's nothing going on in command window, press any key and command window closes. If your are rooted, you have SuperUser app

I found custom recovery from here:
http://pan.baidu.com/share/link?shareid=271693&uk=973327405
I think it is in Chinese, I have not installed it yet.
Does anyone knows that is it possible to build new recovery by using http://builder.clockworkmod.com/ and does it change the language to English?
I tried that tool by using Chinese recovery.img. It created new recovery.img successfully without any errors, but I have not tried it yet. Is it safe to use? I used builder just with recovery.img but without recovery.fstab because I wasn't able to find it.
What if the device fails to boot? I do have original firmware on .zip file, but not sure is it possible to boot and install original firmware from SD card.

ZTE stock recovery is actually in english !!!!

My bad didnt check beforehand, it seems the stock recovery mode on the zte v985 is actually in english which allows to flash roms from zip files placed on the root directory of the micro sd card.
To enter ZTE Recovery Mode do as follows: Firstly power off device then Hold down volume down key and then hold down power key, when the zte logo appears on screen let go of the power key but still keep the volume down key held you will enter zte recovery mode which will allow you to wipe data, update from micro sd card etc.
Hope this helps.

4.1.2 update was released today. Here's the direct link for download:
http://pan.baidu.com/share/link?shareid=3082485858&uk=3442944625
It's recommended to update first from B03 to B04 and then do the 4.1.2 update. Here's the link for 4.0.4 B04:
http://pan.baidu.com/share/link?shareid=3921007642&uk=3945654451
How to do 4.1 update. Remember to backup first!:
1. Download V985_update_4.1.2.7z upgrade package file and unzip the file. Under the folders there's update.zip.
2. Copy update.zip to the external SD card root directory
3. Enter the "Settings" -> "System Software Updates" -> "Storage card upgrade." and uncheck "retain user data upgrade". If this is checked, it will cause some issues and the phone might not boot.
4.Click the OK button to upgrade. Upgrade process starts automatically after a few seconds.

How to root ZTE V985 4.1.2 Jelly Bean
Hi, it seems that ZTE has brought a new android version to the V985 called 222200B1329ZTE V985V1.0.0B04.
I have a V985 with android 4.0.4 version B03 installed, rooted and equipped with Gapps. I can only upgrade into stock which removes my root and Gapps.
Can anyone tell me how to root the V985V1.0.0B04 android 4.1.2 version?
Thanks

I was able to compile and run fully working clockworkmode recovery from CM10.1 stream,
I was also able to compile and port CM10.1 to this device. Currently thinking if we could port CM10.2 to this device.

CM 10.1

Phone won't start!
I have installed 4.1.2 update on my v985, but it was draining my battery very fast, i tried to install back to B04, but it was not working, i couldn't install. Then i tried to install Clockwork Recovery and now phone won't start, iz just turns on ZTE logo and stops!
Help please!! Is there anyway to unbrick my phone?

Phone is something like read only
I have a v985. I received it rooted, but a lot of message was in Chinese an it did not download my contacts from gmail.
I've flashed all ROMs that I found, finaly I'm stuck in "enterprise_V985_signed_101613_1017.zip".
Google play does not start. It just flashes up.
I have a Chinese application search app, where I can install apps. It seems to be installed, but the app is nowhere.
I can boot into recovery, but I can't wipe or format at all. Nothing.
I can run "install zip", it loads the zip, the commands are started, it writes that it is OK, but does not change the phone at all.
The strand that I can make photo, it is saved, I can copy files to phone and to sd card...
What can be the problem?

hello there! It seems to be quiet here, did someone solve the problem? I have also this zte version, all things is working correctly except the battery, the current rom is ics 4.0.4 v985v1.0.0B03, the android system consumes itself about 50% of battery everyday even when the phone is in standby, I would like replace the kernel with a new one, if someone has some ideas I'm very interested. :good:

simply root it with Vroot
This method is very complicated just simple root it with voot 1.7.2 sofware , you just all those drivers witch come with Q mobile software. Juts simple put mobile in dubugging mode , once sofware detected your mobile just simply press the Root button , your wmobile will restart once and its finally rooted . No need for all this stuff. I rooted my friend's A2 Classic with that method , if you want some screenshots i can provide that to.

Easy Rooting Method.
- I am not responsible for bricked phones
-and i am also not responsible if someone hit a bricked phone in your head
-don't worry your data remain safe :laugh::laugh:
Method:
first and first download the software from attached files below the post :good::good::good:
1) Install all the drivers (as the original post suggested ADB and VCOM )
2) turn USB debugging on.
3) Install the software , its in chinese but not very difficult to understand Just press the middle button once installed it should be looked like this (check the attachment )
4) press the button , let the software do its things, once your cell phone restart check the SU app in the drawer.
Caution: Do not Factory restore your phone after freezing apps or modification you will end up in a boot loop.
So what you do with this little Rooted device ?? duh off course make ext 4 partition on your SD Card and link your newly download aps using link2SD . no worrying of low space

4.4.2 (B370) only can be upgraded from B118, its the base for B370 version, same oesmbl.
So need to install B118 first.
->Download B118

G6-L33
"the same as L22 and L11"

Sorry, Its the same is true, but this is for Europe and files are diferent from Colombia, thats way the issue..
It does not work in L22 and L33 , although it is the same phone with the same kernel, but the provider configuration is totally different, frequencies , network codes, etc.
I did not know because no one yet with these models had reported , I found this incompatibility shortly ...
If someone able to change or create , it may be possible to upgrade .
L11 - Europe
L22 - Venezuela
L33 - Colombia
Sorry :\

works great . thanks a lot man

i updated to B370 successfuly, everything working fine except Motion Control. when i go to "Motion Control" in Settings, there is nothing there (a blank white screen).
I remember this problem was in P6 EMUI 3 too and a patch was there to fix it. any patches for G6?

Same thing goes rong. Sensors must work! Or pictures rotate?
If not, flash b118 again, than b370. Don't forget factory reset after change cust folders names.

:good:
Excellent guide, you did a summary of four different things in one and easy to understand. For your mastery of the subject I wanted to ask your help to use my Huawei G6-U00 with firmware of China, which has unlocked WCDMA 1900 MHz band, so I can not use the phone in 3G in Venezuela.
Is there a way to unlock it?
I have tried to Engineer Mode, but it asks a code that is not known Huawei (0, 0000, 1234), . Also I tried the QPST program, but despite being recognized as a modem, do not read as a telephone and does not communicate with the RF_NV_Item_Manager.
Thanks in advance!!
Mario

Hmmm, unlock bootloader, root it and do backup from your ROM. than try b136 u251 rom, from colombia. You can use g6sknife to do backup (need root).

oemsbl version list check error!

I have Bootloader unlocked, Rooted, and CWM as Recovery.
I installed G6-U251 B136 dload in SDcard, Note ( in my U00), and gave me the following errors; oemsbl version list check error!, ?V write data error, Error; Update.app is an invalid package, Sd card update failure, SD card update abort.
I used the default recovery cause the CWM asks a zip file. and I unzipped the file and place it in the folder Dload in SDcard.
Any advice?

After you do backup with g6sknife, there is a tool you can use, is the rom extractor, is in g6skinfe to.
Extract system, cust modems.
Copy system to cmd folder, boot in fastboot (bootloader), use cmd option, than flash system if fail you need to restore your backup, because you stay with out system, if you get success, put cust and modems in backup zip and use cwm to flash it. If you get success to, you need to change cust to your provider.

G6_L11 problem after update...
Hello...
I have a G6-L11, Digitel Venezuela ...
Since I did ROM upgrade, the gyroscope and proximity sensors do not work, either lighting and ...
What can I do..??

problem with g6 rom
hi
i hope someone can help me with a little problem on my Huawei G6 smartphone.
the model is a G6-U10
but currently i have a U00 rom installed (B370, downloaded from the official Huawei site, probably the Chinese one)
installation of this rom went smooth, but this build has some serious shortcomings, so i wanted to install another rom. but that appears to be impossible!
I tried several U10, C00 and L11 roms, ranging from build B118, B193, B261,B330 and B370. most download from the official Huawei servers. and I also tried rollbacks, (U10 B360 to B136 and L11 B370 to B118), but nothing seems to work.
mostly i get the message "version list error" with some other things.
it's weird that i managed to install a U00 rom on a U10 device, but now it seems that i can't install anything from other models than U00 ánd roms that are older than the current one (B370), which is the problem, because this is the newest i think... so i can't find any other rom that i can install...
the phone is not rooted. i tried is with Vroot and Rood Genius, but it didn't work. why, i don't know. i don't even know what i precisely would do when the phone is rooted... but that's another story
I really want to install a proper working (preferably EU) rom on my G6, and at this point it doesnt matter to me how old the build is...
problem with the current rom U00 B370 is mostly this:
i can't add my Google account for the phones' contacts
play store can't install any apps
can anyone help me? cant i rollback to a better build or something?

First, if you have a U10 why you flash a U00 ROM? ...
Google G6 U10 b146, try to install it.
Tell if you made it?

G6 ROMS
There are a lot of steps to do.. Open Bootloader, Root the Phone, Install Custom Bootloader, Flash a new Rom for G6-U10.
All these Steps are full Explained in GG Development Group in Facebook.
Send a request join message, and in Pinned Post. Read , read and read. There are a lot of information and a ROM that fit your ROM. What does it mean UE in your Question? United States? Union Europa´s? the ROMS are quite different.

[PE-TL10] [BOOTLOADER] Alternative procedure to unlock bootloader

Hello!
For all of PE-TL10 Honor 6 Plus people, this is a procedure I tried to unlock the bootloader.
As you know, you cannot anymore ask Huawei for the unlock code. If you like me are in this condition, try this procedure.
It is the same procedure you can find here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/general/alternative-method-unlocking-bootloader-t3799294
with just a little edit for this device. So full credits must go to @@NayeBunny. Well done mate!
CAUTION: YOU WILL LOSE ALL OF DATA. DO A BACKUP FIRST!!!!
STEP 1 - Rollback
You need to be on Lollipop 5.1.1., EMUI 3.1. I tried this procedure in firmware B332.
If you are already on Marshmallow, EMUI 4.0, then do the following:
- go to https://www.hihonor.com/my/support/phones/honor6plus/
click on the choice menu "HONOR 6 Plus Dual SIM 3GB+32GB (PE-TL10)"
You will find 2 options which are equal. Choose the second one (will return more firmwares to download)
Click on Firmware Download
Download BOTH HONOR 6+ RollBack Package Android Marshmallow to Android Lollipop and HONOR 6 Plus Firmware (PE-TL10, Android 5.1.1, EMUI 3.1, C900B332, South Pacific, Channel-Others)
You will find instructions anyway the procedure is this:
- unpack the Rollback package and extract the UPDATE.APP file into a "dload" folder which must be in the root of your INTERNAL STORAGE (I have read various posts about putting it in the sdcard*, I put this in internal storage and worked)
* maybe because it is intended /sdcard/ , anyway not the external storage.
- turn off phone
- press vol+ vol- and power togheter (you can release power button when the Honor logo appears, but keep the volume buttons pressed until you get the EMUI update screen
When it's done, unpack the UPDATE.APP of the other package and put in the dload folder of the phone (of course delete the previous one!)
Do the force update procedure as before.
STEP 2: Root
We need to be rooted.
I used Kingroot for it: https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=29834
You can find instruction here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/one-click-root-tool-android-2-x-5-0-t3107461
STEP 3: the magic code
Now we are all set up, you need to activate USB Debug first (or download a ADB package as in the first link I provided).
Just go to Settings - Phone info and click repeatedly on Series Number (the second line, below model number) until you get developer options turned on.
Go back, open Developer Options and turn USB Debug on. Authorize your computer when you connect the USB cable.
Now, do this:
Code:
adb shell
Then
Code:
su -c "grep -m1 -aoE 'WVLOCK.{14}[0-9]{16}' /dev/block/mmcblk0p6 |grep -aoE '[0-9]{16}'"
(here is the difference, the code info is in mmcblk0p6 in this phone)
If all goes well it will be returned a quite long number. Copy it.
Exit the shell (typing "exit", pressing CTRL+D...) and then
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
And finally
Code:
fastboot oem unlock ****************
in place of the stars paste the number you got.
I did this procedure and I unlocked my bootloader. Let me know if it works for you!
I hope this can help people to develop good ROMs for this great device!

Sorry for the necro.. but does this method works on Honor 6A Pro for unlocking the bootloader ?

Hi,
no idea... just have a try!
As per original post, the procedure to unlock bootloader should be equal for the P8 and for other Huawei devices (like the PE-TL10): maybe just the location of the code info could be different (mmcblk0p6)

can some one provide the links for same device please?
PE-TL10 area c185​I couldn't find no where!

It seems not working links anymore!

Hmmm...
Yes, I checked and those inks are linking elsewhere. Moreover, I can't find a mirror or another place hosting these files.
Sadly, I don't own amymore this phone and I deleted all of PE-TL10 files from my computer.
The only solution would be someone who downloaded these files, when they were available, to upload them somewhere.

My bad
