Maybe a first step toward development for the HAM2 - Huawei Ascend Mate 2

On another forum, a developer has expressed a willingness to see if he can develop a flashable zip file to allow custom recoveries to be installed on the HAM2. A HAM2 user comfortable using adb needs to see if he can get partition info to the developer as a first step (the developer doesn't own a HAM2). (I don't want to upset xda developers so if you want to read about this, just google "still no root HAM2" or you can pm me.) Maybe, if we're lucky, at least one developer will get a HAM2 and become motivated to develop a root method.

Yeah, I found this thread a while ago and now it seems I'm his beta tester!

I just looked at the update to the thread. I'm glad you pointed the developer to this forum, too. Thanks for your help. A big cheer for you from this novice HAM2 user who's hoping to have a HAM2 that was ordered from Amazon in hand next week. Maybe baby steps will lead to a root method being developed. I would like to see a method to root so we could unlock the root capabilities of ES File Explorer, especially if we get an upgrade to KK down the road.

Here's the thread if anyone's interested. Hell, you guys could probably PM him saying you'd like to help test too!
Getting root on this phone would make me the happiest guy on earth! I think we should donate to this guy if we get root. He doesn't even have this phone.

I'm just waiting for our developer to answer a question of mine before I attempt to flash the file he gave me. If this works, we should all donate to him!

bootloader unlock
Can someone try this?
Sorry for the crappy link. I think I need to have 10 posts before I can post a real link. The page is in Chinese but it's pretty easy to understand if you paste it into Google Translate:
www dot emui dot com/plugin.php?id=unlock&mod=unlock&action=apply
I think it's very similar to the htc bootloader unlock setup, but I don't know if it works for phones bought in the US.
---------- Post added at 06:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:53 AM ----------
Honestly, this phone has been out in China for a while, and the Chinese are definitely creating roms for it. So if someone really wants to put together some kind of donation pool I can probably just find a Chinese student who can just copy and paste the info from the Chinese language forums.

For example, here are some instructions for root (I haven't tested them, YMMV)

The US version of mate 2 is not supported.

Just a heads up: the US version is the MT2-L03. Anything other than that could be the Chinese version, etc.

[Q] N.O.V.A 3 on i9100xxlsj

can any one play nova 3 on galaxy s2 runing android 4.1.2 xxlsj ????
i need a link for apk
i have download many differnt apks but all not work
3 mb or 17mb or 24 mb
sometimes appear your device not compatible and sometimes take a long time verification and out
any one have experiance just help me i will be gracefull :good:

why? i just asked for apk because i bought this game and get incompatible device! what are think my money is gone so i decided to search sur net for cracked apk for this game ok and from now i will never bought a game ok
Sounds legit. I don't see a reason why all developers shouldn't put the .apk for their app on the internet so honest users like yourself who have bought the app but just want the flexibile of having the .apk can download and install it. I'm sure everyone who downloads it will be people who say they've bought it, which is totally legit.

Wait, you think that... people would lie... on the internet...?
Have you tried contacting Gameloft? Nova 3 worked fine on my handset when I trialed LSJ. Are you using any multi DPI play store app? On my I9100 it downloaded through the app store perfectly, took ages to run first time whilst verifying files but then ran fine. Did you make a complete wipe before installing LSJ?
Try contacting Gameloft or check the Gameloft forums on their website

OTA Sense 5 _ 2.12.709.1

Can some of Chinese users who are on stock 1.17.708.1 rom check for OTA because it looks like it started roling out, at least for them.
And if yes, please upload it somewhere

requesting as well.... those with 1.17.709 should get ota 2.12.709.1
please report if you got anything
Note of caution!​
Can the posts on this thread be kept down to people who have the ota only and are able to upload. There are other threads open for sense 5 already.
Just saw a new thread in the One X forum that had this link:

Witch is a Chinese forum I believe, but non the less it's about the new update and it has the pics to prove it.
Use google translate to read the forum.

For what it's worth I just went there and it opened fine. It did kick up a few hits on my IDS sensors though just because it's a cu.cc domain. Because cu.cc offers free domains it is very attractive to botnet herders and that sort of thing. Not saying he is one or anything, but cu.cc domains in general are considered "suspicious" by the security community.
His IP is also shared by several sites it looks like, which is fairly normal when using a hosting service. but if any one of those sites has malicious content, the IP loses reputation. as a result legitimate sites can have their reputations harmed.
I'm certainly not saying his site or domain is suspect by any means, just explaining why AV might complain. looking briefly at the site it looks just fine
So, I gather that no ones heard anything about the ota since this thread was started?, I think it wasn't real anyway, I do know that we should receive it before December.

Check out the @ocarinaz64 builds here : https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B02ZZ1GsXhMkQ1F6Z1hjR245c0U&usp=sharing
They aren't mine, and are slightly different of course, but to not make waves in the community I am linking to them because I support his work too.
I ran one of the latest builds before building my own ROM and everything and thought it was great. (used it to sync up to the repo actually lol)
Also I'm sure he'd appreciate any thanks you're willing to give. Everyone likes to know you are grateful for the work they do right?

So this is to test the acceptance of this ROM BEFORE I upload it.
Please anyone who would like to see this ROM uploaded, say so here.
I have really crappy internet like I said and will not bother taking the time to upload this if nobody wants it in the first place, makes sense to me lol.

LiquidSmokeX64 said:
First I have to say thanks to Captain Throwback for his commits otherwise this wouldn't be possible.
Ok so, this is basically just Cyanogenmod 11, built from source, with the commits for after the new partition layout, firmware upgrade.
I will be updating semi-regularly, maybe not nightly but at least once a week if I see people downloading it. If popularity increases, I will be more active on updates, and possible small changes such as additional apps, build.prop mods, and that kind of stuff.
Note: I am one man, not a team of developers. With a crappy internet connection. I don't know a whole lot but have some skills, but have no idea how to add/remove features and whatnot. That's not my area of expertise, but would like to have a few good people to fill in the gaps to make this a really nice ROM in the end. I will try to take requests, if I can do it, I will. This is for everyone in this community, so help me help you and we all will be happy.
This is an all-in-one ROM. I had issues flashing certain gapps packages, resulting in weird issues such as no SMS, so it seemed smarter to cut the hunt out for everyone else who just wants it to work great out of the box so to speak, thereby I already added the minimum gapps for the ROM to run smoothly. And everything seems fine as is.
Also, I have removed Gallery2.apk & Browser.apk, and they have been replaced by CMGallery.apk (aka GalleryNext), and Chrome.apk.
The gallery switch was just to stick to using as much CM code as possible, and Chrome was because I couldn't get the AOSP Browser to work for some weird reason yet to reveal itself to me. But it does make this ROM unique in its own way.
This should be easily upgradeable (dirty). I tried to make it to where you should not have to clean flash after the first install, but nobody's perfect.
DO NOT UPDATE OFFICIALLY AFTER THIS!!! CYANOGENMOD INC HAS NOT INCORPORATED THE NEW COMMITS TO THE BUILD YET!!!
I ONLY KEEP THE UPDATER TO CHECK FOR NOTABLE CHANGES WORTH MAKING THE NEXT BUILD FOR!!!
OK so here is the link to the ROM : (Not Uploaded yet)
If you support my work, please at the very least hit the thanks button.

Captain is right. I have been posting my builds with the new layout. They are easily found in my signature. The only thing that I did to it was applied Captain's commits for the new HBOOTS / partition layout. As such, I didn't think it merited a post under the "Original Development" section. I was keeping it under "Android Development", where Captain had it started.

Amen to that
Guys,
I have a question. I saw on http://www.theunlockingcompany.com/index.php/huawei-ascend-mate-2-unlock-code.html that they say they can unlock the HAM2 between 12 and 24 hours. Do you think if I purchased this unlocking code that the bootloader would unlock as well?
It's worth a shot, they only charge $12.99
Currently my HAM2 is already unlocked to work with any carrier, I was just hoping that purchasing unlock code would also unlock bootloader. What do you all think? I dont think doing this will unlock bootloader but still, had to ask the question.

Not sure what the mods have to do with this?
They didn't create the thread, the OP can add tags to help searching.
The thread in question is 4 years old, which is old in Android years.
ONYXis the OP hasn't posted in a Amazon Fire forum since 2016 and has moved on to other devices.
You didn't even post in the original thread where you would likely get the most useful views.

I guess this place is a lot looser to what i've been on before lol, i've seen places where people were encouraged to message mods (or mods did it themselves) to update main posts with the current fix/method/whatever, i guess i should post on that thread instead? honestly i didnt even think to check the date on that last reply i just thought there's no way it would still be open now, who uses the early kindle fires haha
