Are you kidding me? I have three recoveries there! TWRP + CWM Mod, CTR 1 (CWM based).
All have been ported, checked and further optimized for H3C based on it's partition table and device id.

You must have problem understanding my guides, coz earlier ask you to help upload B108 two times also wrong,
you failed to follow exactly my instructions, hey dude i am worried about you...
don't try anything unknown ah later real hardbrick i tak taw oh...
For example other recovery might have diff partition table, their /data could be /system in H3C, if you factory reset die lor...

EDIT: but lucky the one you posted is compatible i think.


The one you quoted was 'Flashable Custom ROM', ROM ROM ROM....
I cannot guarantee the one ported for china set will work on MY set either, i tried MIUI yesterday but failed to boot.

You can just reverse the exact steps and skipping others, but using ROM_B108 not UReflash

Re-read the KK guide the answer was there.

Duh.., try custom ROM on locked bootloader? cari susah meh.... ofcause on unlocked bl...

If i am not mistaken i tried the one from HERE.
Maybe that wasn't for our device, i cincai cari and found one, need login to dl from needrom, lazy to reg acc.
You try la if ok make mirror for us on GameSky mediafire folder so we can try2 too...

EDITED:
Eh sorry, to relock just flash preloader & secro from B108 directly, and all partition you have replaced, eg: recovery.

If you just want to restore B1XX no need to relock la just force update.


Initially i thought they have diff radio chip, but what makes me curious is that some claimed they managed to restore the IMEIs on KK with MTKDroidTool, and i think i read some ppl with China set installed B108 yet their IMEIs remains.
There are just too many mystery pending to be solved, but not by me coz my job for this device is done.

Salah side ka or port rosak ke? Send back to HW 1 to 1


Early reply was wrong, just flash directly not need reverse steps, got confused a while...

Apa kaitan with driver la... you just can't read properly....

Clean empty userdata & cache la, similar to full factory reset mah..

She has three options:
#1) Proceed with KitKat & use Live Recovery to apply modem fix, but can't use upgrade further unless she unlock it.
#2) Use SPFT to revert back B108 4.2, then use OTA to update to latest B113.
#3) Revert to B115 4.2 using UPDATE.APP (Ahead of Malaysia OTA B113)

Guide for all options can be found HERE, option #2 is recommended for normal user.

Only MY set will lose IMEI, AP set can upgrade without any problem.

Read again the KK guide you should get the answer there.


Use the guide i posted, post #3, Full ROM dump with SPFT Readback, you don't need root for that,
and i recommended everyone to create the dump right after the phone come out from the box.
You can then use guide 'Restoring Single Partition using SPFT' to restore it should you need it.

But i need to remind you all that, normally you don't need to touch that partition unless you ran a full format.
Those claim the IMEIs need to be restored after upgrade might have no clue that the missing IMEIs can be restored easily by applying modem fix.

Perhaps the one done with computer will be too complicated to her either, let's try the easiest method #3.

1) Download B115 HERE. (684 MB)
2) Extract the downloaded zip, inside got /dload/UPDATE.APP, copy whole dload folder to to dir of SDCard.
3) Power off the phone, start by pressing & holding down ALL three side buttons.
4) Wait until flashing complete, done.

* Note that everything will be deleted during the downgrade process.

Yes, correct, the only drawback is that this version is ahead of Malaysia latest OTA, but nothing bad about that IMHO.

You misunderstood. She can still receives OTA as long as the version pushed is never than B115.

Login to your account from web to enable pop access.

What situation? The phone should auto restart and boot to system once the upgrade process completed.
Check what she mean by 'can't be turned on'? bootloop @ logo or just black screen & vibrates?

Like sitescope said, take out the battery & retry, if still can't then no choice have to use the method #2.

Yes

Yes there is another way, by unlocking bootloader, as soon as she do that her phone will be able to boot again,
but i am not sure if i should recommend her to unlock it as that may void the phone warranty,
not quite suitable for her and anyone who concerns about warranty/RMA, so she has only one choice left.

You will also need the drivers, yes it's recommended to take out the battery while flashing, not compulsory but highly recommended.

Let just say that the orders used to restore is very important to get things right, a misstep will ruin everything.
Another reason is that the locked bootloader is causing problem, unlocked BL will not have this problem.

Okay, Good luck, and don't worry about that i did that for over hundred times.

Think! If one needs to send the device back for warranty, do you think they still have chance to relock?
For example, nas, his h3c usb port is broken, do you think he can still relock it? Think again, and read more.

WHhaaAttt? Am I to be blamed if things doesn't work out like i said?

Yea yea it can used to unbrick... yes yes bootloader has to do with the brick but it's more to incompatible issue.
And if you trust the XDA guide then you have trust me either because i wrote the guides, and if you don't,
you will have to wait until someone else who had solved this problem before to provide you the solution....

Haha, jk too la, i don't mind for complaints either.

Well, back to topic, it's almost impossible to hard brick this device, no matter what you can always recover it.
I have to admit it was my fault that i forgot to take locked BL into my consideration when providing the solutions, my bad.
The earlier solution was suggested because during my tests i was able to restore even my BL is still locked.
Perhaps my understanding about this device is still poor.

Told ya already it's not recommended for daily use, strictly for testing purpose only.
You have wrong understanding about locked bootloader.
I have clearly stated the ONLY way to relock the bootloader is by flashing the signed images.


Yes correct, flashing the ROM image will reload all system related files including boot image and recovery.
As for the signal problem, yes we are facing some difficulty to get IMEIs back working when returning to B108 or factory dumped stock.

Which mean updating to unofficial KK might be a one way trip as you might never be able to revert back to locked bootloader again, or more correctly, you can revert but will not get a fully functioning device as call related functions will be lost, but don't get confused, you will still be able to revert back to fully functioning official JB 4.2.2 B1XX ROM, just not the one with/from locked BL ROM.

Amin & i are still working on this issue and hopefully we can find a solution, but the chance are low.
It's hard to work on this as there is no official documentation available or any reference we can use.


To whom it may concern, i sincerely apologise for all the trouble i've caused, if you applied modem fix, your warranty is void.
