Recommended Posts

As per title really. Was wondering if anyone knew anything about any custom ROMs for this phone. I was hoping to iron out some of the bugs it has and maybe get KitKat.

Thanks!

Can't believe there's so little interest and support for this device. It's the spiritual successor to the Y300 and the ZTE blade.

I'm going to take a rough guess, most people that moved on from those phones went for the Moto G or something more powerful.

Just discovered that there is an official Kitkat update for the G6-L11, which is apparently the same as the G535-L11 except has an 8MP camera rather than 5MP:

Does anyone know if this ROM would work on the G535-L11? This phone isn't even listed on the Huawei website, and if I do a search for it it just leads to the G6-L11...

Tempted just to try it, but worried about bricking my phone.

Just been looking again for any updates, and found this on a Polish site.

Looks promising, but I haven't got a bootloader unlock code from Huawei yet (sent email but no reply after 4 months...).

 

Also, there is a line at the bottom which Google Translate translates poorly and I can't understand whether it means the camera doesn't work on G535-L11 or not....:

 

"I will only add that I tested at home on Huawei G535-L11 and camera not only works on G6 LTE should all work properly."

 

If I can get an unlock code, I might give it a go, and report back. Anyone out there got their G535-L11 unlocked already and willing to give it a go?
