If you want to flash custom ROMs, you need either CWM recovery, or TWRP recovery. This is because the original Huawei Recovery will not let anything be flashed unless it is signed by Huawei. Sorry, but it is the only way.

I don't think so. You could try running a force update again and seeing if that returns it to the Locked Status. Sorry :(

Ok, Try the force update, as it can't hurt. :)

I got the unlock code via email. It has one letter C, two letters E, and the rest of it are numbers. Is it good?

[Guest aztekman]

I'm at Installing The Custom Recovery.

I did that, held button volume up and power button, went to backup and restore. Now what do I do? I have two "Advanced restore", external and internal sdcard. I selected each of them and says "Couldn't open directory. No files found."

Where did you back up to?

Was it the external SD card or the internal SD card?

[Guest aztekman]

I went to "backup and restore" menu, and then tried the two "Advanced restore" options(external and internal sdcard), but i didnt backed up anything before. I have to make a backup to external or internal sdcard?

You have to back something up before you can restore it! :huh: Sorry, but you can't get your data back as you did not back it up! :wacko:

[Guest aztekman]

OK got it. where should i backup? External or internal sdcard?

[Guest OmnioPT]

[Guest aztekman]
