How to enter flash mode
- Fastboot: Hold
fastboot devices
+ for 10 seconds on boot. The device will not show any signs of being in fastboot mode (It'll just show the Huawei logo), so you should check with - This device has a locked bootloader, see Bootloader#Huawei
For some reason, adb reboot bootloader
doesn't work. In fastboot mode, I also couldn't get a kernel to boot with pmbootstrap flasher boot
.
Installation
You have to do an sdcard install since there doesn't seem to be any partition large enough for pmbootstrap flasher
.
Make sure you have an unlocked bootloader. If not, Installation will not be possible. See Bootloader#Huawei for information on how to unlock it.
Status table explanation
Component | Status | Notes |
---|---|---|
Flashing | P | Flashing the kernel works, flashing the rootfs doesn't. (Use sdcard install) |
Touchscreen | Y | evtest reports the correct values, can't test in a GUI.
|
Display | P | Splash screen works. Wayland compositors sometimes show up, but the screen flickers on and off. Xorg doesn't work at all. |
WiFi | N | Nothing. Doesn't even show up in dmesg. The device seems to use an ath6k chipset, can't find any firmware in the Android filesystem. |
