CyanogenMod is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 5.1.x (Lollipop), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.

CyanogenMod is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. You will need to provide your own Google Applications package (gapps). CyanogenMod does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

IMPORTANT, READ THIS

This build is for MT2L03 ONLY

You might want to reduce the LCD density in Settings -> Display. We have to leave it at default for various reasons. I use 240 and it's wonderful.

are you using the posted TWRP? or different version?

 

[Moody66]

Resolved. Lol. Whew.

 

[Kid_Ding]

i used all files from this post. made sure my device had b309 flashed. get the bootloader up and fastboot twrp. #success

 

[u-ra]

I've updated the top post. You really need to use that TWRP for the time being.

 

[Moody66]

Thanks. I would suggest anyone using this to force 309 first. Huawei made some odd changes in 321. Bypassing recovery. Maybe that caused his issue? Thanks for this. Renewed hope in a good phone!

 

[u-ra]

There's no need to downgrade to B309. B321 is also fine, there is a workaround posted elsewhere in the forum.

how do you root CM.. Answered..

In Development Settings is an option for root and adb enabled.

 

[Moody66]

Should already be rooted. Enabled in settings.

How is it running so far? Smooth? Glitchy? Any issues?

Some have not been able to boot into twrp with 321. Says its installed but still boots into stock. SHM has been working on it.

its been much better than what huawei released. less issues with emui out of the way. no glitches within the UI. only issues i've had are with google camera, when going into settings it FC's.
