....Strangely, 'fastboot boot' doesn't work on the G300 so the usual superboot approach won't work, so i've created a 'SuperRecovery'.

This is a stock recovery image with 2 changes - firstly the ADB access is upgraded to root, secondly the recovery will automatically install Superuser / SU on start (in the same way as a superboot). This means it will give you root while maintaining compatability with stock upgrades applied via the stock recovery.

I need to root but that is way over my head

[denzele]

This is easiest way to root honestly ( thanks to paul) ..Rooted mine a dozen times with no issues..

Download file super recovery on your windows extract it..take battery out wait 5 sec. put it back..boot in fastboot by holding vol.up and power button together for 10 secunds...if stays on logo Huawei or Huawei Ascend ( depends which version of ICS you have) connect your phone to pc with usb cable...yoip PC  should detect phone and installed drivers ( if not download Huawei drivers google it)...then open super recovery folder and hit install super recovery.bat file and wait to script to finish.. take usb out take batteru put it back this time hold vol. down and power to boot in recovery and select first to reboot phone..after all that once phone booted back if new app superuser is installed you're rooted...

Let me know ..

You can download official rom from huawei site, they are in UPDATE.APP format. You format yous SD card, and put UPDATE.APP on it.
Turn on your device by pressing VOL+, VOL-, POWER button at the same time, this way factory update software will be done.

You can try to root your phone in the next way. I think that it will work. I used same metod after I unlocked bootloader with official huawei code

1. Download TWRP from http://www.modaco.co...u8818-10042013/
2. unpack .zip file and take recovery.img file,
3. Flash your custom recovery by issuing the command  
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
4. Turn off your phone and enter recovery holding VOL+ and POWER for 5-10sec (until twrp logo appears)
5. In TWRP, select reboot -> system. You will be prompted to install SuperSU. Swipe to confirm. When your device boots you will see a prompt to install the full version of SuperSU.
Select to do the TWRP install. Your device will download a file, reboot into TWRP which will automatically install the file, then reboot again.

If anything goes wrong you can always use metod with UPDATE.APP

Downloaded an official rom already, and recovered the phone. It is a 4.0.3 rom. But I cant root it with your way.


c:\CWM>fastboot-windows.exe flash recovery recovery.img

Any other idea?
