Need Help for Huawei A199 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dear all,
I just purchased a A199 Huawei dual CDMA/GSM phone from Aliexpress. Prior to purchase i had confirmed with seller that phone isn't locked and that i would be able to use my own provider SIM cards.
When I received the phone only the GSM SIM is detected, the CDMA SIM isn't detected despite using the same 800 Mhz frequency band (CDMA 2000). I then tried to download a ROM file from a chinese forum shuajizhijia.com, after the flash my phone kept rebooting itself continuously.
Anybody have any idea how to solve this?
Thanks.

i‘m afraid that there’ll be a few custom rom for A199,for the k3v2 cpu,it is special,which needs to confirm the boot.imgfile all the time,unless Huawei would unlock this structure.the models like A199,such as Huawei P6,U9508,Mate,etc all have this sort of question
on Anzhi page ,chinese developers only ported miui for them due to miui uses the same boot file.
you can browse the page.
good luck!
Huawei is introducing its latest product called P6.

I found some posts on the ROM from Chinese Flashing Forum web: shuajizhijia.com/huawei/a199/
Anybody know whether flashing my A199 with one of those ROM will allow the use of other provider's CDMA SIM card?
Thanks.
Ok.. so now I managed to flash my phone with one of the ROM downloaded from Shuajizhi, but my A199 still doesn't read my CDMA card...
Do I need to root my phone first? How can I install gApps on my phone?
Thanks for any help..

Hi,
How you got your phone unlocked? Can you explain please? I also have A199 with cdma part locked
Hi guys,
I've buy one A199 when I was in China for work 4 months ago , now I'm returned in Europe but my phone company use only 3g and this phone actually use only 2g line.
Now my question are , There is european firmware for this phone?
It's possible to unlock 3g line and /or there are custom roms for european use?
And the last question is , It's possible to add android market? because actually if I download the app, it isn't possible to open
Thanks in advance for your response

If you mean to use 3g in GSM card slot - no, you cannot, it is only for GSM 900/1800 Mhz, but not for HSDPA 2100 Mhz. CDMA card slot you can use only for cdma 800 Mhz also. As to Google account and market - sure you can. You need to root your phone first with a help of EROOT program . Then use gapps-jb-20121011-signed . I suggest to do this all on clean last firmware version CV100R001C92B130 .

[Q] Huawei Honor 4X sim locked

Hi, just realized that my brand new Honor 4x is SIM locked on China Telecom. I can use the slot SIM2 but only wit 2G.
I travel a lot between Germany and China and therefore would like to insert my German T-Mobile LTE SIM in slot one. I get the message "invalid SIM"
Any chance to unlock the sim, bypass the provider restriction?
Thanks!
PS in the meantime I translated the Chinese description which states that it is provider locked

[Q] How to Unlock CDMA Networks for Other Regions in HTC android phone

Well I have HTC One Max 809d which is the only version that have CDMA+GSM Dual Sim Feature . Its imported from China but I am unable to use any CDMA sim in India as it shows no network but I can use GSM sim in India on its second slot . So I think it first slot i.e CDMA may be locked to its original network or region i.e China Telecom and China Region.
I have searched a lot on this and does not found any help but found this is a general problem on all dual sim cdma+gsm mobiles imported from china.
I have already tried various steps like unlocking bootloader, s-off , changing cid but did not receive any success on unlocking cdma network.
I also want to install gapps but there is no custom recovery for this version on one max only availabe is FOR sprint t6_spr , t6_vzw,
and mine is t6_dwg.
So Please help me in this .
Thanks

Well that goes against the CDMA standard. I know india phones well and the dual sim is for dual GSM sims or a CDMA data sim. CDMA is completely different tech then GSM that uses sim cards. If it is locked then you will have to call the Carrier that released the phone and have it unlocked but I think you will find even then you will only get a data sim with CDMA

[Q] Chinese phone LKD L8

Hello everybody. New to the site, but learning a lot.
I purchased a Chinese an unlocked android phone from Taiwan, LKD L8, and I thought I was supposed to be able to swap SIM cards pretty easily. When I got it to the US, I was originally on T-mobile. Recently I tried switching carriers and when I put in a new SIM card I now have to enter a privacy password. I called both T-mobile and Ting and they both said it's a phone issue. Unfortunately I cannot find any tech support from the company. I tried resetting the device, but that does not remove the privacy password. I searched and I guess I'm not the only one with this problem. A suggested fix is that I flash the ROM. I can't find LKD L8 on this site, so I was wondering if I could flash a different ROM? From the little I know, I have to make sure the chipset is the same correct?
The specs on the L8 are very similar to the Samsung S5 I think.
L8 Specs:
WCDMA 850/1900/2100MHZ
Chipset MTK6592-1.7Ghz-Octa-Core
OS android 4.4.2
Sim Dual-SIM Dual-Standby
Gravity Sensor yes
Distance Sensor yes
GPS yes
FM yes
USB 5 pin mini
What do you all think? Could I flash it with the Samsung ROM?
Thanks for your help. I tried other forums, but this site seems to be the best.
