This is how you Replace Chinese Recovery with original recovery

If you have installed Chinese recovery with recovery6.0.1.9_AscendHonor2.exe.

1. Go to Settings and go to Developer options, and enable USB debugging.
2. Plug the phone in the computer, and Choose USB storage device (or Media device (MTP).
3. Open Recovery6.0.1.9_AscendHonor2.exe.
4. Now press 2 for The original recovery (1 is Chinese recovery), and press Enter.
5. If all is OK, the program will do its job and Reboot into FASTBOOT MOD, then he Flash the selected recovery and then he reboot the device 2 times.
6. Now your selected recovery have been installed.


Before starting the firmware you need to have:

1. SD card of at least 2GB
2. Phone with a charged battery at least 50%

1. Plug the phone in the computer.
2. Unpack the archive with the firmware and throw dload folder to the root of the memory card.
3. Unplug the phone from the computer.
4. In the phone menu - Settings - Storage - Software Update - SD card Upgrade (or Settings - About phone - System update - Update via SD Card).
5.The phone will reboot and begin the upgrade process and you will see the following picture (be patient it can take a few minutes).

If you see a lot of Chinese letters after you boot, it means that you have installed Chinese recovery with recovery6.0.1.9_AscendHonor2.exe,
and you have to replace Chinese Recovery like you see above.



After the update the phone will reboot and start (also be patient).



Google Play Store

1. Connect phone to computer, (first install the Huawei USB Drivers) then put
GAPPS on you intern or extern Storage, now power down phone.

2. Power up your phone whilst holding Power & - volume.

3. Now your phone should be stuck in the "Huawei Ascend" logo, now connect to computer and run recovery6.0.1.9_AscendHonor2.exe
and press 1 and enter.

Then if he ask something about 1 and 2 option, and nothing happens do this:

Press CTRL+C then N. And it should start.
Make sure fastboot is OFF and USB debugging is ON

4. Now you should have custom recovery (woo), disconnect usb and remove battery.

5. put battery in and boot phone with Power & + volume.

5. So now you notice everythings chinese MYGOOOD, so do this:

Menu button 2 --> Menu button 1 [zip from internal memory]
Menu button 2 --> Menu button 4 [zip from external memory]

And select your GAPPS zip file.

Then a few seconds later GAPPS (Google Plays Store) is installed.

Then go back, Menu button 5 and then press menu button 1 (this will boot your phone).



Root your Phone

There are 2 ways you can rood this phone, first one is with Motochopper, and the second one is with Chinese Recovery 6.0.1.9.

It's easer with Motochopper.


Motochopper

Instructions:

1. Download the file (Motochopper) to your PC.
2. Extract the entire contents of the zip file.
3. If you are using Windows, ensure you have installed the latest Huawei USB Drivers) available for your phone.
4. Connect phone to computer ensure USB Debugging mode is enabled on your device.
5. If you are using Windows, navigate to the extracted directory and execute “run.bat”. If you are using Linux or OS X, navigate to the extracted
directory in a terminal and execute “./run.sh”.


Chinese Recovery

Only works if you installed recovery6.0.1.9_AscendHonor2.exe, like you see above.

Download and copy CWM-SuperSU-v0.99.zip (or any similar SuperSU) to your SD Card.

Shutdown your phone, restart by pressing Power + Volume Up buttons until you enter CWM screen.

Menu button 2 --> Menu button 1 [zip from internal memory]
Menu button 2 --> Menu button 4 [zip from external memory]

And select CWM-SuperSU-v0.99.zip file.

Then a few seconds later CWM-SuperSU-v0.99.zip (SuperSU 0.99) is installed.

Then go back, Menu button 5 and then press menu button 1 (this will reboot your phone).

Pleas note that, you only get your phone rooted after this.



I have done it and it's very easy, if you already had MoreLocale 2 on your phone and selected your language then he will go to your language
in a view clicks, and if you had English in settings then you also still will have that, also with ADW.Launcher or (i hear better) with
Apex Launcher you have your App Drawer and more back.

Good luck everybody.

And the caller ID its works on Android 4.1.2 ?

Then it sounds more like you are typing your Password or User name wrong, had the same problem also once.


UPDATE: Have you ROOTED your phone, because GAPPS won't work without a rooted phone.

yes its rooted.. and im sure its the right password... i have tried many accounts, even tried making a new one. still doesnt work
I have tried many things to fix it like these methods:
1- pull sim card
2- log into youtube, but it only comes to the same google login problem :S
3- factory reset
4- changing time

its really frustrating, i cant login to any google account, like youtube, playstore or gmail
