Huawei honor 3c IMEI fix

This is a tried and tested method and it does work. This worked for me when EVERYTHING else failed and that includes MTK tools, mobile uncle tools, reflashing signed stock rom innumerable times. Thankyou @Chrizzly92 for this!!!
Follow this method this will surely work! Kudos to the developers!!:good:
IMPT YOU NEED TO HAVE A ROOTED PHONE SINCE YOU NEED TO PASTE A FILE IN THE /data/nvram FOLDER.
So first follow this section [Format EMMC with SP Flash Tool (Full Format)] with the help of the guide made by @codelover for honor 3c and then reflash your phone with the signed B108 international ROM. Then root your phone by the following method
Unlock your bootloader using the method given in the guide, then flash a custom recovery through spft and flash UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.40.zip attached with this post with the help of the custom recovery.
After following the above method, download ES File Explorer from play store and grant it superuser privileges.
NOW THE METHOD TO RESTORE YOUR IMEI
1. Download the attached imei.zip and extract it.
2. Run imei generator.bat

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
3. Find your IMEI numbers on your phone product box or remove the battery of your phone and you'll find the IMEI numbers written there.
Then input your IMEI numbers in the command prompt window which is opened by imei generator.bat
4. A file will get generated in the folder where the bat file is located.
5. Now transfer the generated file onto your sd card or your internal sd card. Copy the file and navigate to /data/nvram/md/NVRAM/NVD_IMEI/ and replace the MP0B_001 file with your generated MP0B_001 file.
6. Restart your phone and wait for a few seconds and VOILA!! Networks have been restored!!:victory:
7. Now to make this fix permanent (yeah, up till now this was a temporary fix i.e. IMEI will again be lost after a factory reset), flash the UPDATE-ModemFix-MY.zip attached with this post through the custom recovery and reboot.
DONE!! :victory: Now your IMEI has been fully restored and will remain intact even if you factory reset your phone or flash a new ROM. And by chance if u break the IMEI again, follow the above steps again!
Feel free to ask any questions regarding this issue . This saved my ass BIG TIME!! THANKYOU TO THE BLESSED SOULS WHO DEVELOPED THIS GENERATOR and the guide by @codelover!! And hit thanks if this post helped you

Just crossing out all the possible problems... you formated your emmc right?If not, it can create problems. Before applying the UPDATE Modem fix, did it temporarily fix your imei problem?

Thanks for reply,
I have formatted emmc (full format), flashed the b108 signed rom, unlocked the bootloader, installed twrp and rooted the phone, boot and the phone with no signals and imei null, created the MP0b file and put it in the sd , replaced it with the one in system files set permissions and reboot and the signals showed, then I flashed the my-modem and everything was good and signals were there, then I factory reset the phone and again back to imei null
I want to relock the bootloader again and leave this rom_messy thing :/

Backup your IMEI using MTK tools when you get the signals. Then instead of using UPDATE modem fix to make the changes permanent, use MTK tools to restore your IMEI.
Check if this method works for you

You do know it's a dual SIM phone right? One IMEI for each sim slot. Open your phone dialer and type *#06#, you'll see.

What?! You sure that you aren't looking at the serial number? There must be 2 IMEI numbers at the back of the phone which you'll be able to see after removing the battery. If for some reason there is only 1 IMEI number present, then enter the same IMEI number twice when the tool asks for the IMEI numbers.

Hi ... I get code error 5054 too on sp flash tool. Can you help ?

can you tel me which vriants give 5054 error?

820s
---------- Post added at 08:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:20 PM ----------
I made some research the code error 5054 means: The files you're trying to flash do not belong to or are not compatible with the phone you're trying to flash them to**
Solution they give..:*** Ensure you're using the correct files. If you're sure they are, then try formatting before flashing again
Does this mean that my variant is not compatible with yours ?

@Mohamed Yaser you might give the wrong file. Instead, I flashed the pgfs files from Gibz97 thread and it worked fine. Then I continue with flashing twrp through fastboot command.

The problem persists for me.

1. Download pgfs from Gibz97 thread.
2. Put it in the folder containing the lollipop ROM. (backup original pgfs is optional)
3. Open flashtool, as in the OP, load scatter-loading in lollipop rom folder (not in folder RootIT)
4. Follow steps in OP, except do not tick recovery.
5. Proceed until step 7, then reboot into bootloader using adb (as the pic in OP)
6. Then boot into download mode. (It is weird as download mode is considered as fastboot in adb, not the bootloader )
7. Flash twrp using command fastboot flash recovery twrp.img .
8. Boot into recovery, then flash SuperSU.
You're done! I hope it help you

No, you do not need to. Just unlocked pgfs1 and pgfs2. If you flash whole firmware, then it will wipe data.

Vodafone Smart first 6* NL *(EU) Rooting and More!
Done & Closed!​After a wild chase finding the correct tools and apk's this took me 2 days to complete an fully rooted and Simlock free Vodafone branded Smart Firt 6.
Most of the files can be downloaded from below here on XDA​DISCLAIMER:
Rooting your phone and using custom Recoveries and ROM's have risks and may Void your warranty and can result in bricking your device, and has nothing to do with Google or the device manufacturers. In case of any mishap I am not responsible if you brick/ruin your phone in any way.
Basic computer skills are required and minimal knowledge about the phone and phone utilities also.
Make sure that whatever you do, you are doing it at your own responsibility.
It may be that you get an *softbrick *(bootloop) because Vodafone still pushing update's for their Firmware patching and upgrading the software!​
To be safe please use methods given by: Androrooter and or Kirito9 !​
#Rooting:
1# Download the root.apk onto your phone or SD card and install.
2# Now start the app and you will see it's all in Chinese, just click on the Root Shield Badge ontop of the screen.
3# Let it do its magic installing the scripts most likely it will auto reboot your phone without rooting it,
you must restart the root app again and click on the Badge (like done at step 2#).
~Now you are Rooted but the Superuser is Chinese and what i have noticed it's a temporary Root, if you lose root again just redo step 2#!
4# Download and install SuperSu-2.46 now launch an root app most likely the Chinese app will popup granting
for root permission, you must click on the colored (grant) button to accept.
5# Download an Root browser i.e. File Manager and let it gain Root permission, if SuperSu wont ask for Root it's now save to uninstall the Chinese app.
~From now on you permanently Rooted, don't go installing/modding stuff yet until you made an systems backup!
#Twrp or Cwm Recovery (PC version):
1# Download ADB Driver and install on PC. Download from here; http://www.datafilehost.com/d/2267ab98
2# Download TWRP Setup (thanks to Dees_Troy & Yuweng) and unzip on your PC.
3# Activate USB debugging under developer mode* and connect with USB to your PC.
(done by *tapping 7 times on the build number in the about phone section)
3a# Open the Twrp setup.exe and click on the next button.
3b# Just wait till the installation is completed followed by credits.
3c# On the next window, click on yes to proceed.
3d# Select Start Easy Magic TWRP Installer for MediaTek and click on ok
3e# Click on Yes to auto port.
3f# Now make sure your phone is connected, adb driver installed and usb debugging enabled, then click on OK.
~if you get any pop up msg on your phone screen just click on yes.
Just wait for a few seconds while the setup is been completed,
if the process was successful, your phone should automatically reboot into recovery.
~Now you need to make an full backup with Twrp so that all the files are safe!
#More Updates following Soon! To be safe please use methodes given by: Androrooter and or Kirito9 !

Kingroot 4.8 worked, so I ran the TWRP Setup and guess what another way to ruin the phone even further. Stuck in a boot loop now.
STAY AWAY FROM THIS GUYS GUIDE! It will most likely break your phone from start to finish!
Please provide a reset copy of your system.img and recovery.img for people who have lost their phones due to this guide, it would be very useful as the devices can be restored if adb / fastboot access can be achieved.

Well well QuantumRevenger,
Sorry to hear that this method didn't worked out nicely for you.
Maybe your firmware got upgraded and the recovery didn't stick?!
Did you try the combination Power + Vol Up while the phone is off and enter
the Recovery menu clear Cache + Dalvik after this reboot.
I can't help you with the systems files because i ditched the vodafone firmware for Vanilla 4.4.2 Android.
The only thing i can do for you is point to this thread where i moved towards myself-> MTK devices
Here you will learn an little how your MTK device works, also you can search XDA for an different Easy Magic TWRP or CTR or even Philz!
Enjoy
&
Good luck!

Do you know if this will also work on the UK model?

Hello RHodgett,
It most likely would work because this model bought by Vodafone for their (EU) market.
As we all know it's a cheap china phone suited for Vodafone requirements!
~Not speaking for the firmware updates they push once an while~
But rooting can be done very easy with the given root from my post or even now with the updated
Kingroot 4.8 said by QuantumRevenger. And like for the custom recovery it can get tricky mentioned by QuantumRevenger, i had no problem with this at that moment.
But i urge you to read my answer to QuantumRevenger problem from above, after that you can decide at your own risk.
Enjoy
&
Good Luck!

Thanks, I'll give this a go when the handset arrives in a few days and report back.
Can you explain how to then install the Vanilla 4.4.2 Android firmware? (or any other suitable stock firmware for the device)

No Problem & you're welcome!,
For flashing roms you need an custom recovery otherwise you can't Flash.
Nobody here is tailoring for our Vodafone branded(China) smart first 6 so you have to go where i send QuantumRevenger towards and where i am. (See post answering QuantumRevenger).
Here you can use the roms and learn more about our MTK devices in general.
For flashing roms you must install in the recovery as an zip file and then you're done!
MTK has other methodes to install but that's for advance users only.
Enjoy
&
Goodluck.

Hi, I've root using the Chinese apk and root checker says the device is rooted but I wasn't able to install SuperSU 2.46, it keeps saying the binaries need to be updated and it fails every time I update.
Rebooting using the TWRP setup just shows the Powered by android splash. I'm not sure what to do now?
Edit: Ok I've flashed a recovery from the threads you linked, finally got a bootloader working. Now to flash a ROM Got CM12.1 running, thanks!

DID not work for me

So I followed all the steps and everything seemed to work fine. The TWRP software said it was going to reboot into recovery but it is stuck at the android logo screen.
When I hold power button + up key its the same, stuck at the android screen.
When I hold power button + down key it boots into vodafone android.
I'm kind of stuck to what to do now (sorry I am really new to this)?

Darn that's a bummer! It worked for me and had everything running xposed, SuperSu etc. :/
Try another Magic installer use CWM or Phillz, they can be found here or via google.
So weird i bet Vodafone did a firmware push on there bootloader or not all EU firmwares are the same(dat would be pretty nonlogical).
Sorry for the troubles please try the above solution and report back if that fixed it.
Goodluck!

2# Now start the app and you will see it's all in Chinese, just click on the Root Shield Badge ontop of the screen.
3# Let it do its magic installing the scripts most likely it will auto reboot your phone without rooting it,
you must restart the root app again and click on the Badge (like done at step 2#).
~Now you are Rooted but the Superuser is Chinese and what i have noticed it's a temporary Root, if you lose root again just redo step 2#!
4# Download and install SuperSu-2.46 now launch an root app most likely the Chinese app will popup granting
for root permission, you must click on the colored (grant) button to accept.
5# Download an Root browser i.e. File Manager and let it gain Root permission, if SuperSu wont ask for Root it's now save to uninstall the Chinese app.
~From now on you permanently Rooted, don't go installing/modding stuff yet until you made an systems backup!
#Twrp or Cwm Recovery (PC version):
1# Download ADB Driver and install on PC. Download from here; http://www.datafilehost.com/d/2267ab98
2# Download TWRP Setup (thanks to Dees_Troy & Yuweng) and unzip on your PC.
3# Activate USB debugging under developer mode* and connect with USB to your PC.
(done by *tapping 7 times on the build number in the about phone section)
3a# Open the Twrp setup.exe and click on the next button.
3b# Just wait till the installation is completed followed by credits.
3c# On the next window, click on yes to proceed.
3d# Select Start Easy Magic TWRP Installer for MediaTek and click on ok
3e# Click on Yes to auto port.
3f# Now make sure your phone is connected, adb driver installed and usb debugging enabled, then click on OK.
~if you get any pop up msg on your phone screen just click on yes.
Just wait for a few seconds while the setup is been completed,
if the process was successful, your phone should automatically reboot into recovery.
~Now you need to make an full backup with Twrp so that all the files are safe!

Hello Onlydongles,
for root you can use kingroot 4.8 or the given Root apk from above.
Just install like any app for Android and follow the instruction.
Enjoy

Goodluck!

That's the problem. SiInce the file is in ZIP format, downloading into the SD card and then doing the Power+Vol up, and update from SD zip, gives me an aborted message.
Putting the Zip file in the Phone memory (not the sd card) just doesn't open the file, saying format not supported.(casue it is ZIP)
What am I missing? please help with a step by step idiots guide, if you can .
Thanks

The root is an normal APK there are only two zip files here; the TWRP and the SuperSu.
TWRP.zip is an magic installer for your PC with the given USB drivers and Debuging turned on(See my guide).
Now SuperSu.zip can only be installed via an custom recovery like TWRP.
I'm noticing you're trying to flash without an
custom recovery?, that's an no go.
1# Root with given or Kingroot 4.8.
2# Install custom recovery TWRP, CWM or Phillz (Must be an magic installer version via PC) all these versions can be found on Xda.
3# Flash SuperSu via custom recovery and replace the first installed Root!
That's all there is to it, no deeper layers on how-to install.
Enjoy

Good luck!

OK got it. THe only way I could get the APK into my phone is via the phones own browser from this site. I could only move from my pc as a ZIP file only. Hence could not install. But now its done. I think I am rooted now. Root checker still says not rooted, but I can use ES file explorer and have managed to remove a few app. Does this mean it is Rooted?
Can I remove the Rooting apk from the phone now without any adverse impact?
I have also managed to load the TWRP on the SD card. IF I want to Flash a rom, how do I go about it? Can you link and stable ROM which I can use? Need a small tutorial.
AND very many mahy thanks for your support on here and input.

Okay Onlydongles,
I don't think you have Root (yet!), Es browser has an side menu.
Here you must scroll down and select Root Explorer, that's the real test if you got Rooted!
If not install Kingroot 4.8 via your phone browser.
For ROMs you have to go where I send everybody towards ->MTK Devices (link given in answers above).
Flashing ROMs is easy done by custom recovery select the downloaded ROM zip and flash with the given creator instructions B).
Enjoy

Good luck!

Im facing boot loops, I wanted to install lineage os but my device was not supported, I accidentaly deleted all the memory through twrp, the phone have unlocked bootloader and it can get into fastboot without issues, the adb/fastboot on pc it detects the phone.

I found the stock firmware rom for my phone here :

If no, then you can download from the official website of Huawei.
If yes, then proceed to following:
Extract the zip file containing "dload\UPDATE.APP" file
Attach SD card to the Computer. Copy the "dload" folder (containing file ) and paste it in the root of SD Card.
Insert SD card into the mobile.
Enter into recovery mode by holding volume and power keys.
Now It will automatically detect the firmware file and begin flashing.

I did so I formated my sd card and then extracted the zip with dload folder into the sd card. After that I removed the sd card and put it back into the phone and then I pushed vol up and vol down and then pushed the power button. after a while the honor screen turned on and after that the recovery emui utility installed the android and that was it! Thank you for helping me to unbrick this device I really appreciate it I wanted it to flash it originally with lineage only because of privacy concerns, would you give me tips on how to make the phone more privacy related? so it will spy on me lesser? I mean is it possible to get near lineage os in terms of privacy?

i tired Fastboot with all firmwares and i read all the guides but still no fix.

[HOWTO] Unlock and root the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite

Hey guys,
I know its the same with the other tablets but i wanna make one just cause its easier for people.
How to unlock::
1. Turn on your device and then go to settings --> scroll down to about tablet --> Software Information then tap the Build number 7 or 8 times or until it says you unlocked developer options.
2. Go to developer options and tick OEM UNLOCK and then a warning will pop up and just accept it.
3. Turn off your device, then while holding both volume up and down, connect your device to the pc.
4. A New screen should appear saying stuff about custom roms and stuff, Jut hold and press the up button until it resets. ( THis will erase everything on the tablet)
5. if you're like me and set up the tablet and went straightfoward to unlocking the bootloader, follow this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/how-to/how-to-bypass-rmm-prenormal-to-install-t3891193
So you wont have any issues flashing roms a nd stuff and dont have to wait 7 days.
6. Now your bootloader should be unlocked! (To enter download/odin mode: Do the same thing, Turn off the device and hold both volume buttons while connecting to the pc then instead of long pressing up, just press up once.)
How to root:
1. Download the firmware for your your tablet, i dont know if i can link the sites but you can google it.
2. Extract only the AP portion of the firmware.
3. Open up the AP portion with 7-zip or winrar
4. extract the boot.img.lz4 out of the AP file
5. Download Lz4 https://github.com/lz4/lz4/releases to your pc corresponding version.
6. Extract the LZ4 to the same area where the boot.img.lz4 is
7. Open command prompt in that folder and then do
Code:
lz4 boot.img.lz4 boot.img
8. Move the boot.img to your tablet, open up magisk manager then clicked Advanced Settings or Advanced, then untick Perserve AVB 2.0/Dm-verity and FIle Encryption then patch it.
9. Take the patched_magisk out of the tablet to your pc and then rename it from magisk_patched.img to boot.img
10. Use 7-zip or winrar and right click on the boot.img and add to archive
11. Select Tar (This is 7-zip havent tried winrar)
12. Once its complete use odin to flash that boot.tar on the AP Section
13. You should now be rooted

Hi I'm familiar with magisk and oneplus, motorola, htc etc but not with Samsung. How can I still upgrade my device without losing root?
My tab S6 lite, notifies me about an upgrade but it looks like it hasn't got an a and B psystem partition so you can love update en before reboot just use magisk to patch the bootloader and keep root. Any suggestions?

You cannot install the OTA updates if you are rooted.
Only solution:
* back up of your apps and data with Titanium Backup
* clean install of the new ROM (flashing with ODIN), once the new firmware is available on samfrew.com
* patch the boot.img with magisk, so you are rooted again an can install Titanium
* restore te apps and data with Titanium Backup
Maybe someone can make an update script once we have a TWRP-recovery.
Leuker kan ik het niet maken...

It’s in the boot loader files, I removed it it’s possible to hide the warning. I’m busy right now maybe later I’ll upload the file to remove it.

If you do not buy new devices for sometimes years and are not a native English speaker it can be very hard to figure out what is being written in abbreviations.

Hopefully the picture shows however its just a SS of my Root Checker app showing that it is indeed possible to root the tab 6 lite (or at least SM-P610). Since there are plenty of easy to follow guides regarding how to unlock the boot loader for this device i'm going to skip past that part and jump into what actually gave me 12+ hours of frustration.
Once the boot loader is unlocked it is time to find the stock firmware for this device (which I feel its necessary to mention that there are 2 that are almost identical save for literally one number).
1. XAR-P610XXU1BTI3-20200924123941 <---- WRONG!
2. XAR-P610XXU2BTI3-20200924123941 <----- RIGHT!
once you have the correct firmware as seen above and its downloaded onto your computer open the compressed file (I used WinRAR) and you should see 4 different files.
1. AP_P610XXU2BTI3_CL19529942_QB34299355_REV00_user_low_ship_meta_OS10.tar.md5
2. BL_P610XXU2BTI3_CL19529942_QB34299355_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
3. HOME_CSC_OMC_OXM_P610OXM2BTI3_CL19529942_QB34299355_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
4. CSC_OMC_OXM_P610OXM2BTI3_CL19529942_QB34299355_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
The file needed in the next step is the one I have listed as number 1 (beginning with AP). Select just that one and extract it to your desktop. At this point you are going to need a compression software (I used 7Zip which is free). Once you have 7Zip installed right click on the AP file that's on your desktop and just below the open with option you should see an option that says 7 Zip with and extendable sidebar. On that same sidebar the first option you should see is "Open Archive" which you will want to select.
You should now be looking at a window with 8 files and 1 folder however the only file you should be concerned with is the one named "boot.img.lz4". **this is where it gets kinda funky if your not overly familiar with this process**
At this point you will want to go to github.com/lz4/lz4/releases and scroll down a little until you see a download link for a file "lz4_win64_v1_9_2.zip". Once downloaded open the zip and extract the entire folder to your desktop (it should be named LZ by default).
Open the LZ folder and take the "boot.img.lz4" file you extracted earlier and copy it into the LZ folder. Once copied simply Drag and drop "boot.img.lz4" onto the .exe called "lz4". If done correctly a new file should suddenly appear in the same folder that is now simply named "boot" but you will notice that it is now in a Disk Image File format.
(at the end of the guide ill put a URL for a video which shows exactly what I just described here, please follow the video if there is any confusion).
At this point you are going to connect your tab 6 lite to your computer and if it hasn't been done already turn on USB debugging from the developers option and install any drivers needed. Once your tablet and computer are able to communicate (i.e you can open your tablet as a drive on your computer) you will want to copy the "boot" file from the previous step into someplace you will remember (I used my downloads folder). Once onto the tablet you will now download and open Magisk Manager and proceed to patch only this one specific file that you have copied over.
Once patched you should see a copy of the boot file in your downloads folder which will now be named "Magisk_Patched". take this newly patched file and copy in onto your computers desktop.
Rename "Magisk_Patched" to "boot.img" and then right click the file. Again you will want to hover over the 7 Zip option however this time you are going to select the option "add to archive..." which is about halfway down the list. Once selected a new window will come up which will allow you to set the format to .tar. with the name set to boot.tar and .tar selected as the format hit the OK button and on your desktop a new WinRAR Archive file should appear named boot.tar.
Now is when you can finally boot your tablet into Odin mode and open Odin as an Administrator (I used the latest version 3.14.4). Once Odin recognizes your device select the AP button and select the newly created boot.tar as your input (The file location should look similar to this C:\Users\Owner\Desktop\boot.tar provided you saved everything on your desktop like I did).
Once loaded into Odin select the options tab and UN-select Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time before hitting the Start option.
At this point if you did everything correct you should see the boot file being flashed onto the device. Once completed with no errors boot the device into the normal stock recovery and wipe the Cache and then factory reset the device. On the next boot up you should see in addition to the normal "boot loader is unlocked blah blah blah" another message that says you have an illegitimate copy of android on your device and that it may not function or update properly.
Just ignore the message and after a few moments the device should continue to boot into the initial set up page. Work your way through the set up and go online to re-download Magisk Manager. This time when you open the app for the first time it will give you a dialog box that says that the Magisk Operation is incomplete and will ask you if you want to complete it. Agree to complete the process and it will auto run in the background for a moment before it shows completed.
It was finally at this point that I ran Root checker and was met with the very first picture in my post. The biggest Issue I found in all of this was the fact that aside from one single comment in a post here on xda, nowhere else does it explain that you need to extract the boot file, convert it first into an img, THEN patch it, THEN flash it..... smh I cant tell you how many times I wiped my device and had to flash the stock recovery until I got this. I hope this helps you guys moving forward and doesn't just cause more confusion but here are all the links to the videos and files I referenced in order that I mentioned them!
