It´s not possible to install TWRP
If you upgraded you firmware to the latest version OJ2 there is no way to root it yet.
If you still keep your original firmware you can try this:

I need a third party recovery to root my device. Now I've found the solution. Thanks anyway.
I've not updated yet (tried and failed) but I am interested to hear what the root solution is?

I recommend you to first download CMOS12 YNG1TAS2I3 OTA and flash it via Stock recovery and then use those root methods. I guess you are running on some French CM Version.

There is no root for specific versions. To get root all you need to do is unlock your bootloader, flash TWRP, and then flash SuperSU. The version of your OS has absolutely nothing to do with any of this. Forget the toolkit, delete it, they're nothing but trouble, plus of you use one you're never going to actually learn anything about what you're doing. Everything you need is here:

I have my new ONO with this rom version; I used the regular root method (Super SU Flash via TRWP) and it worked nicely.. I think I gonna keep this rom for a while as I don't want to do a full wipe.

You've got a few things wrong. So first, in order to be able to install any Cyanogenmod 12 roms (or any other lollipop roms) you have to update to stock lollipop first. Here is the Argentina lollipop 5.0.2 Odin file for your tablet: Wi-Fi SM-T530 XXU1BOH5 ARO Region (Argentina)
Second, the version of cyanogenmod you have is out of date and no longer developed or supported. I would strongly urge you to choose this version of CM12 instead: http://forum.xda-developers.com/tab-4/development/rom-blisspop-3-1-t3084757
Finally as far as Gapps (yes you need gapps), I would recommend TK Gapps, it's regularly updated and you have control over just how many google apps you want installed (I use the nano version, but any version should work fine).

Why I can not use Kitkat android to use CM12? What is the problems? I think that lolipop 5.0.2 use a lot batery, if I install lolipop stock and after that the rom the problem will be same?

Bootloader. If you don't know what that is, don't even bother asking why
You won't be using stock. You just need to install the stock 5.0.2 file before you'll be able to successfully flash any lollipop ROM. Trust me, I've been there before
Don't worry about the battery. The stock rom doesn't have any affect on your battery after you install the custom rom

You can to install successfully only CM12 not CM12.1 on your KK bootloader .
If you want you can to try this 5.0 CM build
http://android.comtek-wiebe.de/Cyan...12-20150324-UNOFFICIAL-matissewifi.zip.md5sum
and http://android.comtek-wiebe.de/PAC-man/pac_matissewifi_LP.Beta-1.Unofficial_20150323-211047.zip
It is the best of CM12 in mine .
You need select 5.0 Gapps .

Yes, exactly, but it's the same easy process. It's worth doing now so you can install any lollipop ROM you want and not have to worry about the bootloader issue
Edit: I just remembered, the ota might not be able to install correctly since you're already rooted. If that's the case, use Odin and that firmware file I linked to earlier in order to update to stock lollipop

I wrote a set of instructions for that here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=61421937&postcount=4
It's pretty straightforward, you just have to use Odin to install the recovery, then boot into the recovery and use that to install the supersu zip. The post I just linked to goes into more detail, obviously

Huawei MT7-TL10 - what is the latest official update/how to update if already rooted

Hi All,
I am having trouble looking for a thread that would help me update my rooted MT7-TL10, my current version is TL10V100R001C00B120SP04. Is it easier if I just unroot it first then install
via OTA? The new pending version under EMUI updater is TL10V100R001C00B130. I dont think it has a noticeable change with my current version but I really would want a Lollipop OS
for my MT7 (better if its an official update) Hope you could help me and give me the step by step procedure for this since my phone is getting really boring without the lollipop or marshmallow update.
Thanks! :fingers-crossed:

Here is the correct link to root and Custom Recovery
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-7/general/huawei-ascent-mate-7-unlock-recovery-t2941525
You can also root each version KK,LP or MM.
In my case never has a Ota update works, but you can do all by Local Update.
But you must go back to Stock Recovery
Thread is not working anymore.. What version do you have now? How did you upgrade?

I have version 4.4.2. The kitkat version. Never updated it ever since i got the phone. Received a notice on a new OTA update.. But it is more on for stability. Not the lollipop update i guess.
what do you want exactly?
Just want to know if there is an official lollipop update for my phone. And on how to install it while im rooted.

I had the same version on my TL10 (120SP04) and I went directly to B331 from dload folder. No problem in it. Just one difference - my device was unrooted. I made root after that and then flashed KangVIP 3A which is really fine ROM. I think I can recommend you the same however I don't know if there is any problem in your root (but I don't think so).

Hi again, Im receiving error tying to install this in TWRP. Hope you could help. Thanks
Mine was B120 SP04 also. I did the B130 update and kept it that way quite a while, unlocked, CWM recovery and rooted. Also had an older version of Xposed working with some modules. I tried a mod that stuffed it up recently, although it still booted, so decided to go Lollipop seeing as I had to work on it anyway. First thing is to use ADB and flash back to stock recovery, then I unrooted.
Next I applied B324 via local update. It ran fine so I applied B331 via local update.
Running good. Now have TWRP recovery and root. It's a shame Xposed doesn't work on it
I‘ve also not been able to apply lollipop incremental updates. Only a full ROM. Decided not to risk MM yet.
I‘ve noticed that on LP and debloat system apps, I have more free RAM than with KK. It also runs smoother. I installed EX Kernel Manager anyway and with a few basic tweaks the phone flies!
Seriously considering rolling back to Kitkat.
B331 Lollipop runs fine as a daily driver, it's just that even with it rooted, it's so hard to install any mods to customise it how I want.
On reflection, Lollipop doesn't seem to offer me any real benefits over Kitkat

Nougat on FRD-C900?

Background: I got my Honor 8 today, model # FRD-L04 (important later), updated to EMUI 5.1 and Nougat via Updater on phone, and decided I wasn't satisfied with EMUI. So I rooted and that went smoothly, but when I tried to flash a custom ROM, I bricked pretty hard. Long story short, tried flashing multiple ROMs until I found one that worked. The ROM I'm on right now has EMUI 5.1 and build number FRD-C900B131, which is completely different from my original build (FRD-L04). Looked it up and turns out it's a variant of the H8. Unfortunately, I tried to update via Updater and there were no updates available, so I'm stuck with EMUI 4.1 and MM for now (not complaining, since at least it works again). I also tried flashing the rollback ROM for the L04, but I got an incompatibility error when I tried dload method. So now, question is how do I get back to my original stock FRD-L04 ROM, or how do I update to Nougat on this model version (C900B131)?
Thanks for the quick reply. Could you guide me through how I would approach this? I'm not sure which TWRP to use for my (incorrect) build. Do you think using the TWRP for my correct build (L04) should be okay? I'm on EMUI 4.1 also, I think the EMUI version matters too when choosing which TWRP to flash.
