[Q] Working Copy of CWM ? - Huawei Ascend P7

I've gone through a few different files of CWM and none of them seem to work / boot into it. Version 2.3, version 3.0. Both are utter disaster. Only can get twrp to work but then it won't install a working copy of EMUI 3.0.
From what I read only CWM can install 3.0...
I could use a little help here, 5 hours bashing my head against this and still no luck.
My phone is on a continuous reboot as of now :crying:
downloading few files to see if i can go back to 2.3 but at my connection, it will be a few hours, i've all the files for 3.0 so I would really like to see if i can get CWM to work before I go back to 2.3.
Any help would be appreciated, thank you.

Hi, cwm only works together with emui 3.0. So you have to be at least at B602 to install cwm. That means you have to update manually from 2.3 to 3.0(if you are on 2.3 install the 2.3 stock recovery and update with the three-button-methode to B609 or another emui 3.0 firmware). Now you should be able to run cwm correctly...

I wish this info was more easily accessible, the lack of a solid collection of info on dealing with Huawei phones is unbelievable. I had to learn through trial and error and finally got to have a working phone. I'm just lucky I've managed to get proper stock working on it for now. I do not feel adventurous with my phone for now
Thank you for the advice

Updating viper rom 2.3 -> 4.3 bricked phone

Hello All,
I would like to start by saying that i am a huge fan of XDA DEV and everything that has been done here for the android community. I myself am a noob , more or less , so i basically bricked my phone.
I decided to update my viper one rom to 4.3 9 from (2.3 ) and came across zero access to CWR and bootloops.
SOMEHOW... i managed to use ADB as well as tool kits to reinstall a cwm ( after about 100 attempts ) .. and reflash my old 2.3 viper rom.
Now i cannot access my nandroid backup which i made before flashing to 4.3. I am going to try to reflash an older version of CWRM and maybe it will be there.
Furthermore, i would like to know what the proper procedure to upgrade my device . If anyone would be so kind and instruct me, i will appreciate it.
Thank you!
EDIT :::
- I am S-on ( probably makes a difference )

HI, You are NOT bricked. (bricked means non fixable)
TWRP is clearly mentioned by op on viper thread "AT LEAST Twrp 2.6.3.3 required (If you experience issues with Twrp 2.6.3.4, please downgrade by flashing TWRP 2.6.3.3 through the ViperOne installer main menu)
Sprint and Butterfly support is not available on 4.x.x yet. Last working rom for Sprint and Butterfly S is 3.5.0"
Are you on sprint? see above
Also, when s-on, need to extract boot.img and flash it via fastboot (fastboot flash boot bootimg).
clean install imminent for that huge update.
read first page again for better understandinghttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2334294
don't mention "bricked" and will find more help

[Q] Stock Rom, Wanting to update to Sense 6.0

Hi All, I've rooted my htc one on via clockwork recovery mod.
Downloaded OTA update on the phone (sense 6.0) , come to install it and it fails in CWRM. I'd like to keep the stock rom as it has all my data on it like photos and everything and I cannot be bothered to transfer all over again and install the apps if I put on a rom with sense 6.0.
What can I do? I've tried searching for the answer and would appreciate any advice.
Thanks.
I know its probably been answered before but i cant find any answers.

[Q] Se7en-ROM (EMUI3.0) - Downgrading

Dear XDA-Members,
I am one of those people, who flashed the Se7en-ROM with EMUI 3.0 without deeper knowledge. I know it was stupid and I really wish I hadn´t done. But anyway...
The history:
- Flashed Se7en-Rom (EMUI3.0) following the guide
- Distorted voice -->trying to revert back to EMUI 2.3
- So flashed TWRP, but TWRP doesn´t work(recognizing no touch, freezed, false temperature displayed), so no restore possible
- Flashed stock recovery
- Tried to force update, but fails (I tried nearly every downgrade-Update.app available on XDA)
- Flashed back to CWM, tried to flash se7en-Rom (emui 2.3) -->bootloop
- Okay, flashed back Se7en (EMUI 3.0), no distorted voice(?!:good, but can´t follow the instructions, because I couldn´t flash the update.app (fails). So there are no gapps, they do not appear even after flashing manually. Also restoring with Titanium Backup doesn´t work.
So I´d like to get Gapps running or to downgrade..
Yesterday I saw that the internal storage is showed with 3,92GB (setting->storage). Due to this I obviously changed the partitions. Is there a non-dangerous way to repartitionate?
Just trying seems to make all even more badly, so thank you very much for reading this! I would be really happy for every tip.

There's no need for you to worry. Just follow this steps: http://forum.xda-developers.com/ascend-p7/general/reverting-emui-3-0-to-2-3-t2934277
Your problem will be resolved including your storage problem. Don't even try to re-partition your storage manually you will regret it at the end.

Need to get to stock from My-ROM EMUI 2.3

Hi. Sometime ago I installed a custom ROM, but I want to go to stock, preferably the latest. I honestly do not understand what EMUI is or how I can recover. I tried it once and got in a bootloop. Could someone sketch out the path for me to take? I have no problems finding the required files or topics but really need the general steps for this process.
Many thanks.

Installing vibe UI 3.5 MM

Hello. I'm currently running Vibe UI 3.0 the developmental version, and I just downloaded the 3.5 update. I remember, the last time when I flashed 3.0, the recovery for replaced with the stock recover and I had to use SP Flash Tool to flash the recovery (TWRP) again. At present, I don't have access to a computer (and don't hope to for at least 2 weeks) . Therefore what I wish to ask now is that is there any way to not loose the currently installed twrp 3.0 after flashing Vibe UI 3.5??
PS: I know that I'll have to edit the updater script before I flash. Is there anything else I need to know. Thanks a lot for any help.
Does anybody ever visit this place???
I've seen many people have flashed MM yet not one reply......
Please somebody. Help.
same here I am looking for replys ? no body is free to post a reply
heyyy guys.. greetings...
if you want to update official OTA then you have to go with stock recovery.. and if you want only Vibe 3.5.. then go with VDT roms, Or Peter Udvardi roms easliy flash via twrp
If you are not going to lose root after ota update, then i will suggest to use flashify to flash a twrp image after updating.
