Rom Download: CM12.1 for Huawei Y6
Stock Kernel and Modules to fix can't connect to camera issue: Camera Fix

Installation:
Ensure you have unlocked bootloader (there are many guides on how to check this) if you need a code go here, Emui Download Page click unlock bootloader and login with either facebook or phone account to obtain your code.
Install working TWRP recovery from: unofficial TWRP for Huawei Y6
Download ROM from above link,
Download Open Gapps from http://opengapps.org/, select arm, 5.1 and then your preferred package (I use the aroma installer because it includes needed webview, see issues)
Boot into TWRP, perform backup (always backup!!!), wipe data/factory reset, flash ROM zip and reboot.
First boot may take quite a while.
If you want camera to work download and flash the camera fix zip then reboot.



Known issues

Device-related issues:
Double tap to wake does not work.
ROM included webview does not work, install GAPPS webview to fix.
No camera on built kernel (see links for kernel swap fix).
Reported mobile data disconnection from time to time (possibly local to Romania).

That is due to the assert in the updater script.
As your twrp does not set the ro.product.device you can get around it by tapping advanced then terminal command then select any location and type setprop ro.product.device y6 then try flashing it.
Set the property as soon as you boot into twrp before you try to flash or it won't work.

Please type anything
that I should type on terminal Emulator

You need to type setprop ro.product.device y6 either in twrp terminal or via adb shell.

 

[Saber5311]

I can't do it. Do you have another way ?
I type that
And show it : could not set property

 

[Runner85sx]

Thanks.
It is working like a charm.

You made my day!

There is a lazy hack to disable the devicescheck.

I recoment to NOT do this. So do it on your own risk!

Open the Zip with Winrar and navigate to: "cm-12.1-20160514-UNOFFICIAL-y6.zip\META-INF\com\google\android "
change updater-script to:
"ifelse(is_mounted("/system"), unmount("/system"));
package_extract_dir("install", "/tmp/install");
set_metadata_recursive("/tmp/install", "uid", 0, "gid", 0, "dmode", 0755, "fmode", 0644);
set_metadata_recursive("/tmp/install/bin", "uid", 0, "gid", 0, "dmode", 0755, "fmode", 0755);
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system", "/system", "");
run_program("/tmp/install/bin/backuptool.sh", "backup");
unmount("/system");
if is_mounted("/data") then
package_extract_file("META-INF/org/cyanogenmod/releasekey", "/tmp/releasekey");
run_program("/tmp/install/bin/otasigcheck.sh") != "31744" || abort("Can't install this package on top of incompatible data. Please try another package or run a factory reset");
else
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/userdata", "/data", "");
package_extract_file("META-INF/org/cyanogenmod/releasekey", "/tmp/releasekey");
run_program("/tmp/install/bin/otasigcheck.sh") != "31744" || abort("Can't install this package on top of incompatible data. Please try another package or run a factory reset");
unmount("/data");
endif;
show_progress(0.750000, 0);
ui_print("Patching system image unconditionally...");
block_image_update("/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system", package_extract_file("system.transfer.list"), "system.new.dat", "system.patch.dat");
show_progress(0.020000, 10);
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system", "/system", "");
run_program("/tmp/install/bin/backuptool.sh", "restore");
unmount("/system");
show_progress(0.050000, 5);
package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot");
show_progress(0.200000, 10);
"

Save the file and dragn/drop it back to:

cm-12.1-20160514-UNOFFICIAL-y6.zip\META-INF\com\google\android/updater-script

BACKUP your device before you do this!

NOTICE: flash the stock boot.img and Gapps to get this rom fully working.
You may find the needed files in post 1.

i really do, copy and paste the text of the script on the file in the .zip file but when flash its show the same erro my device is a L-03

 

[Runner85sx]

what happen if somethig go wrong?

Your device won't boot anymore. You can restore your device while holding vol+ and vol- while do fastboot boot recovery-stock.img
You need to have dload/UPDATE.APP on your sdcard. This is a stock firmware package. You should have it ready for your device. Important. You need to have extracted your Stock recovery from UPDATE.APP.

So your device will switch to completely stock. But the Bootloader will be remains unlocked.

i do it and flash the rom but when i reboot system gonig to fastboot
please help

I think this is because your model is not referenced in the device tree blobs.
Can you upload your stock recovery or boot image so I can have a look?
As a possible temporary fix I can repack the boot image with your stock kernel and DT blobs however there is no guarantee this will work.
