*
**PLEASE PLACE THE ROM YOU WISH TO UES INTO YOUR EXTERNAL SD CARD BEFORE CONTINUING**

2. This recovery will only flash from an external SD Card, internal SD card flash is not yet supported
3. At the time of this Custom Recovery being posted, no third-party ROM has been released, therefore it has not been tested <- No longer the case
4.This recovery can be used to Root the EMUI ROMs released by Huawei
5. When you need to flash back to the original ROM releases by Huawei, or receive OTA updates from Huawei, please flash back the original Recovery
*If the drivers do not install properly, please download the driver attached in this post and install it manually.
Step 2: ROM Flashing
1. Boot your phone into the new recovery. (either by starting the application again and selecting option 3, or press and hold the Power Button with Volumn Up)
2. You will be greeted by the Custom Recovery Screen show below:
Quote:
[*] Reboot system now
[*] Select zip to flash/install
[*] Wipe data
[*] Wipe cache
[*] Backup and restore
[*] Flash memory/Format
[*] Advanced setting
[*] Turn off phone
3. Scroll to select option 3 (Wipe data), confirm the wipe
4. Scroll to select option 4 (Wipe cache), confirm the wipe as well
5. Scroll to select option 2 (Select zip to flash/install)
Quote:
[*] Select zip from SD Card to Flash
[*] Install /sdcard/update.zip
[*] Activate/Deactivate Signature Verification
[*] Install from external zip
<-- Back to previous screen
6. Scroll to and select option 4 (Install from external zip)
7. Scroll to and select the zip file of the ROM which you have previously downloaded and placed into your external SD Card, confirm the flash
7.5. At this point, you can either flash in the gapps right away, or flash it after rebooting into the OS. I chose to flash it after booting into the OS for the first, but I don't think it will cause any problems. I will be posting the way I did it, and if you guys did it the other way, let us know if it worked or not
*IMPORTANT NOTE*
When you're booting up your system out from Recovery, you will be asked whether or not you would want your ROM to auto update the recovery, shown below:
Quote:
[*] Yes - Forbid Auto Update of Recovery
[*] Cancel - Back
<-- Return to previous
Please select the one being highlighted in the image, which is option 2 ([*] Cancel - Back). OR CONSEQUENCES WILL NEVER BE THE SAME!
Step 3: Flashing GApps
1. Boot into recovery
2. Scroll to and select option 4 (Install from external zip)
3. Scroll to and select the zip file of GApps you have downloaded "gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip" or whatever you may have renamed it to, confirm the flash
4. Reboot into OS
5. *THE NOTE ABOVE STILL APPLIES, SO HERE IT IS AGAIN*

Nvana, it's the same process we've been using to flash the Chinese ROM(s), but with the added step of "fixing" the hosts file:
download SmartHosts from Goole Play (free)
tap on "Toggle hosts file" button
select "Clean hosts file"
And you're done! Rebooting wasn't necessary either, as the images started loading immediately.
