4) If LOCKED THEN , U R GONNA BRICK YOUR PHONE !! ( WHEN U DO AN OTA)
if this happened and now there is a boot loop .. there is no solution to the brick ???

Yes , explain the Symptoms, What do u seee

1) does it vibrate ?

2) Prepare Environment and Unlock the Bootloader!!

Anyone know how to root the Honor 3C H30-L02? None of the root tools are working.

Hi,

you need RootGenius. This tool did the trick for me. Point your browser to http://www.shuame.com/root/ . Download the PC version. It has more power than the Android version.
After a minute or so, you will have Kinguser installed on your phone, which you can replace with SuperSU.

That doesn't work, sorry. I'm looking for the H30-L02, the 3C with 1GB RAM and 8GB ROM.

DO NOT OTA THE B255 (127 MB ) UPDATE!! if u r Rooted !! AKA OTA REBEL METHOD

DO NOT OTA THE B255 (127 MB ) UPDATE!!

Cause its gonna be a huge Mess if you do that

Instead do the Following
1) do a TWRP Data , Cache backup ASAP

2) Download the ROM from this

3) Then restore Stock Recovery ! , Flash the ROM using Force SD Card method ( now this is a better step since we r doing clean installation !!)

4) now dont Boot , instead go ahead and flash TWRP again Permanently

5) Now Restore the Data !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! in TWRP

6) Behold the beauty , when u Boot , u r back in Business !!! :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Enjoy this Method known as ............. OTA REBEL METHOD


Advantages :

1) Saves time and data
2) Saves time for rooting and stuff
3) Saves your TIME !!!


PLEASE KINDLY MENTION YOUR REPLIES ( QUESTIONS with Title OTA REBEL ) in case of any concerns or doubts regarding this METHOD OF UPDATING THE ROM !!!:good::good::good::good:

Hi,

thanks for your post......
my comments:

1) link you provided is not correct ( but this is not an issue, the complete new firmware can be downloaded from official site ... )

2) what you wrote is not really an "OTA REBEL METHOD".....it's simply a complete fresh new installation + a restore of user previous DATA & CACHE

what I have done on my honor 3X - T00 which had the exactly same firmware of Honor 3C-U10 prior to this new OTA 255S( H30-U10_EMUI3.0_Android4.4_V100R001CHNC00B251SP02 ) is:

- I agree and got the official B255 OTA package saved on my SDCARD
- did not installed it but copied on my PC
- exctract the official B255 package
- modded this package to be flashed via TWRP on actual B251 running firmware
- patched the new BOOT.IMG included in the OTA package to get unsecure boot.img

done......

in this way you really save time since you get a OTA package "modified" to be flashed via TWRP......which simply upgrade the firmware without touching data and all the phone setup done in advance.......like removing chinese stuff on dealer, etc etc

if someone can pass me the OTA B255 official package for honor 3C-U10 I can have a look and "modd" this to get same results....

cheers
