Hi, I wanted to change the country code to get native support for call recording. I did this, converted my device to C675 (India) and got the native CallRecording_10.1.0.apk, which is now distributed on all Huawei forums.
1. Download and install the Octoplus Huawei Installer v1.2.2 from https://octoplusbox.com/
2. Pay for a license for 6 months, and you`ll receive the activation code to your email. (P.S. I have nothing to do with this site or the author of the program)
3. Run the program and input the activation code.
4. Follow the instructions on the upper left side of the window, put the smartphone into the On/OFF Factory Mode state (the lowest button on the right in the picture). The program downloads some code from the Internet that is necessary for your smartphone model, and the smartphone turns into a temporary brick until you bring it back to working condition on step 7.
5. On the computer, an unidentified "Other device" USB SER appears in the Device Manager, the device does not respond to anything, does not turn on, only sometimes vibrates when you press different key combinations. Use the device Manager to install huawei com1.0 driver (at the bottom of this message).
6. After that, the program discovers the smartphone, and the "Repair" tab on the right under "Actions" becomes active, with almost all its fields active. In the Country code field, change the country by manually entering the necessary letters. I changed it from ru to in, but you can change to any other region, for example, you can convert the device from China to any European country.
7. Again, click On/OFF Factory Mode, the program flashes the original code to the smartphone, bringing it back to life, it reboots, and data is reset.
8. After the reboot, the smartphone will have a new region code, but the firmware is still from the previous region, so you have to flash (to dload) the firmware of the new region. Another data reset occurs, and you get the device from the new region, with OTA working and so on.
