Huawei honor 4x - starters guide

Welcome to XDA everyone and Most of you would be in a hurry to Root your honor 4X for various reasons ,

This is a Q & A Thread that rediscovers possibilites and innovates , rather than mere sharing other OP Instructions

Phone Yet to Arrive (Mar 30 2015) , Hence As of Now , Below are possible methods

1) Try Vroot

2) Try Below CWM Flashing Method ( Credits Cofface & Hanuma)

I may not be able to assure you , but i will try my best to help you through out and also gather Best Devs to Get things done :D

Trust me , i have been with XDA for quite sometime now , We can together achieve , Putting up some Polls , guys lemme know how we are gonna start ! ( We have a Qualcomm :rolleyes: ) not an MTK ! :silly:

MY new huawei fone

Thanks for creating the thread, I also ordered a honor 4x today and got a limited edition at INR 10,499/ +1/, now waiting to get it on my hand. some guys claims that they found limited edition of honor 4x at price of INR 9,500/ , by applying visa debit card offer provided by flipcart. I don't know how they make it possible.;)

la... la... land
the experience after 1 day with Honor 4X

sorry guys for the delay .... yes was busy doing the switch ;)

  • the Good
    the phone is light weight
    very responsive ... there is no lag in normal operation
    the battery seems to be pretty good :) ... i had charged it once to 100% (up from 65% in the package) after i opened the package took 1hr 15 min to fully charge after using it for last 18 hrs (normal use :p dual SIM 3g+2g + wifi always on) the battery is down to 75% :good:
    the call quality is very good
    the camera and the UI seems very good
    the goodies with limited edition pack
    the headphones is very very good quality and looks good too :laugh:
    the external battery looks very good too :laugh:

  • the Bad
    the phone is very slippery ..... and the back case that came with limited edition pack looks good but very slippery ... feels like a accident waiting to happen (have to get a back case with better grip)
    NO lollipop :(
    the built-in browser is slow in use but the Chrome makes-up for it
    didn't support my 64gb SD card :( but that was known is advance maybe lollipop upgrade will fix it ;) as the built-in 8Gb (4.15gb useable) is very low

  • the ugly
    ........ none :laugh:
will add pictures soon ... still to test out the Bluetooth and 4G speed ...

But eagerly waiting to root the phone and custom rom :laugh:

for 64gb sd support, check there is exfat module running or not..
or just backup your sd card and then flash to fat32, i hopw it will work..
in my experience, redmi 1s also 32gb support but i used 64gb easily..
even yu yureka 32gb limited and i am using 64gb in it..

Got Huawei Honor 4X limited edition within 12 hours of order (opted for 1 day delivery), everything seems wonderful about this phone except there is no root method available yet.

Can someone suggest the possible exploit method for this phone to root?

Update:
touch is now working fine aftr a factory reset

Not so happy with the initial use :confused: touch response is very poor feeling very difficult to go up and down in gallary and pics are opening with out touching and struggling to move from 1 pic to another(may b becz of the poor quality of the screen guard will change it and update) and my device is heating too much in very normal use, another dissapointed thing is volume and power buttons are attached to the back cover not with d hardware,
