Keep in mind, this method is not confirmed working if you're running android 2.3.x [ Gingerbread ]. So do not use this if you're running it. Also dual sim ones aren't supported from what I see it tempers with the phone, I haven't tested it but many have reported it doesn't work on dual sims.
Lets get started shall we? Firstly I have gathered up some useful resources that will help you get started. Make sure you read this guide first, from top to bottom. Then continue. As you must have a clear understanding on what you are going to attempt. If you have any queries don't hesitate to ask on the thread itself.

I have performed these exact steps and have successfully unlocked my bootloader and rooted the phone. So if you're worried. Don't be. After attempting this I haven't noticed any issues either.
Okay, first of all you will need to download Unlockbootloader ---> View attachment unlockbootloader.zip
Once you have downloaded the said .zip extract the .exe file inside the .zip to your desktop.
Continue by turning on USB debugging on your G300. if its already switched on then skip the part below..
Go into Settings>Developer Options and tick the USB Debugging option.
Once its switched on, plug your phone to the computer using a USB cable.
So far you've downloaded Unlockbootloader, have switched USB debugging on, and your phone is connected to your PC.
Now run the .exe file you have just extracted. Click "Root" and let it do everything, it will prompt up with a few warnings saying don't use your keyboard because CMD is running.
Once the setup finishes, your phone should be rooted.
Head into the app drawer, and if you see "SuperUser" you're now officially rooted.
Reboot your phone to finalize the rooting and exploits.
Ok, now for the bootloader.
Once your phone is on, and connected again to the PC with debugging mode on, run the .exe file again and this time click "Unlock BootLoader".
Wait for it to do its job, once done reboot again and you now have a Stock Rooted and Bootloader unlocked ICS phone.

Hi, assuming you have installed the g300 adb drivers, once the device is hanging on the boot logo and you connect the usb cable. You need to wait for windows to fully the load the adb driver before you use the unlockbootloader.exe program.

What you have to do is,turn on debug, then power off device fully by pulling off battery then putting it back in, now you must power on by golding the volume down button and power button at the same time, this should get it to be stuck on the huawei logo screen, now plug in your USB cable and wait for you PC to detect the phone and it should automatically install the devices driver's, one its done the now open the folder and run .BAT files, If you are experiencing problems here's a link for another guide : View
Hi,
After the "Unlock BootLoader", my phone doesn't boot. When the logo appears it stars to reboot again and never goes beyond that.
Any ideas ? Have I killed it ?

Turn ur phone completely off. By pulling out battery then apply the battery again.
Now hold volume down and power button and it should be in boot loader mode. If ur logo is stuck well this is in boot loader if not and it continues well.. idk

Hello krishneelg3,
I have tried a method on http://huaweig300.com but I'm stuck with the problem.
Installing USB drivers/Root/Backup IMEI went OK. Then by mistake I skipped the Step on page 5. Check Baseband and kept continued by Bootloader & ClockworkMod all went OK until the step 10. On page 6. After executing BootloaderG300.exe the phone rebooting cyclically, My operator screen appear for a approximately one second and the phone restarts again. How to resolve the problem and is there any hope to return to official ROM?
Thanks in advance, I really appreciate it.

What was ur baseband and were u running gingerbread?
If u r on official ics then this guide is for u, if not notify me.
PS : If you are running Gb I refer you to look into this guide, as long as your phone can boot into bootloader your fine, and I'm sure it will boot into Bloader mode : http://www.modaco.com/topic/353386-how-to-root-your-huawei-ascend-g300-for-windows-mac-and-linux/
Thanks krishneelg3,
my baseband is 109808, and I'm running GB.
The problem is that I don't know if I'm in a Bootloader mode when I see a pink screen?
When I press VOLUME DOWN + POWER it starts same as when I press POWER, first logoo (in my case picture of my operator) it lasts for about few seconds, then phone reboots and start doing it cyclically.
The other thing is that, when I press VOLUME DOWN + VOLUME UP + POWER, it then turns into a pink screen.
In that state (pink screen), when I plug in my phone to my PC, PC recognize my phone without reading sd card or internall memory.
So what should I do?
Thanks man, really appreciate it!
Guys,
I solved the problem.
I've just followed the instructions in step 5. on the site http://huaweig300.com and put a new update.app (1 KB) and copy it to the dload. After that I've used main dload (ICS folder, aprox abot 600 MB) and everything updated and installed successfully.
Thanks.
p.s. if anyone has or had the same problem, do not hesitate to ask.
hi all
sorry to hijack the thread
I have just got my son an ascend 300 which is locked to vodafone
its on android 2.3.6
the build number is
u881v100r001c02b892
i have a download of HDU88151079V100R001C00B934 which is the ICS but i dont think that will work for my build
ideally i want ICS but dont mind too much waiting.
but i do want to be able to get of all the bloatware.
I guess i need to root to do this.
the link to the modaco site is down and it seems this is for those lucky enough to be on ICS
would i be better off upgrading to ICS then following the method above or would i be better finding a method to root under gb (If so where)
many thanks

OK get the official pics update b927* must be that build.
After its done downloading, extract its contents to your memorycard of the phone.
Make sure the update.app is in the root of SD card .
Then power off phone, remove battery re apply battery and hold the three buttons "volume up, volume down and the power button" until a screen pops up it will then install the stock ics once its done it'll reboot twice.
If only one it doesnt matter.
Setup the phone. Now to install b934 or newer versions use cwm for dazzozos repacks or the update force method. But I advice u to look for help on modaco. Thanks.
Modaco name : krishang3
krishneelg3
Thanks for that by b927* you are referring to a different version of HDU88151079V100R001C00B934 ?
where would i be able to get this from?
so this would give me the stock ics
what is the advantage of then installing HDU88151079V100R001C00B934 ?
Thanks

Your on gingerbread so your baseband Is 109808 and if u flash any b934+ stock using the combinations say goodbye to your phone. I did that to my brothers and it bricked.
So to get to ice you must install b927 version of ics then your baseband will change to the new one *2030* now you can flash any b934+ stocks because you now have the new baseband.
Go to modaco and enter the G300 forums and look at the first dew pages all the info and guides you need. Procedure is simple.
Hi everyone,
I have just discovered RecoverX and it seems to be exactly what I need.
I would like to install CM to my Xperia Play and I am now trying to set up a recovery mode.
Phone : Xperia Play (R800i - French one but I don't think it matters) (rooted and unlocked bootloader)
Rom : Android 2.3.4
I used RecoverX downloaded thanks to this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1773227 , so it must be version 1.6.
I followed the instructions and in the end I was given a nice "Installation Complete".
I tried to reboot my phone in recovery (turn off, turn on and tapping on Back button) but it still boots normally.
I tried to repeat the RecoverX installation three times but the result is the same.
I searched for some answers but didn't find anything.
Could somebody help me? I don't have any idea about what is wrong here (and obviously, I am a Noob).
Thank you!
Roul
Edit :
I forgot to mention that I have tried x-Parts app from google play to install a recovery mode but it didn't work either.
I tried several times and hit the button "reboot in recovery" but my phone is still rebooting normally.
try
try with search button
Wow that was weird...
Although I have already done a lot a reseach, I tried one more time to use "try" and I found someone saying that he didn't used the Back button but Home button to get into recovery home.
I also found another one saying that he had to use Volume Down.
I tried them both and the Volume Down button worked for me.
I am very confused about this...
I though there was only one way to get into recovery mode per phone.
Does the key button depends on the recovery mode installed?
The fact is I am now able to boot into recovery mode.
Thank you for your advice Mogulz93 (...) and most of all thanks to LEDelete and the recoverX project.

try this. its the V5 of the X-parts people have had problems with V6 and above to work on the play.

The button you press depends on the version of recovery and kernel you're using not the phone. With lupus kernel its the back button. Stock uses volume down.
Sent from my r800x using xda developers app
rom: extreme ics betav3
kernel: turbo v3.1
Ok I understand better now. Thank you for this explanation abdel12345.
Since I succeeded in setting up a recovery I will not try your method right now but I keep that in mind, in case I need to set up a different one. Thank you crazymonkey05.
Yesterday I tried to flash CM9 (file : cm-9.1.0-zeus.zip from CM website ) but I had an error with status 7 and installation aborted.
Thanks to that I was able to try the restore feature, and it worked perfectly. I'm glad I did a back up before anything.
I am going to search for some answers online.
And finally, everything worked perfectly.
I used flashtool and now I have CM9 on my Xperia Play.
Thanks XDA
I searched everywhere on couldn't find a solution.
I wiped my galaxy nexus to install a new rom but couldn't find it on my storage and rebooted the system to check where I put it. Yes, I forgot to reinstall the software. This normally isn't a problem since I'd use the volume buttons to boot into bootloader to try again. The problem is, my volume up button hasn't worked for a while now. I can't use adb since it doesn't boot into android to do it either.
Basically, can I boot into bootloader without the volume up button or is there a different solution to my problem or is my phone SOL?
Thanks

Yes.I think you can. Download the Nexus Root Toolkit by wugfresh. Make sure the adb and fast boot drivers are installed in you PC before you proceed.
Select the Sofbricked or not booting option and do the Flash Stock+unroot. This should being u back to stock You can go ahead with rooting or anything else you want after this.

Thanks for the reply, and eventhough the toolkit doesn't work since it needs me to manually boot into the bootloader, it did tell me to use odin.
Odin worked a charm and it took a bit to find the Verizon version, but when I did worked fast and easily. Since I can't post links yet, [VZW][ODIN] Files Needed for Odin w/Instructions on rootwiki sorted me out.

Hello,
This is the third time I've asked you for help. This time it is, it always concerns google pixel C. Everything worked so well. But today, by simply taking a picture, the device turns off and on again on the google logo. Then the android robot with a red alert appears. the word "No command" just below. I can navigate the recovery. But impossible to go into "android recovery" with the menus to apply sideload ota.... I sincerely think it is brick and I'm really very afraid that I won't be able to use the guarantee despite having locked the bootloader before. I was on the official Android 7.1.2 software. The adb and fastboot commands detect the tablet. But I can't unlock the bootloader or flash... I have no idea what to do, I could use your help please!!!!!!!!

Have you tried this?
"Turn off GOOGLE PIXEL C. Press and hold together : Power Button + Volume Down until Logo appear at LCD screen. If we see the menu at LCD screen, choose Wipe Data/Factory Reset with Volume Button to select and use Power Button to ok or enter."
Are you sure I can do that? Because I had downgraded Android from version 8.1.0 to 7.1.2 because I had a problem with 8.1.0. Therefore I had unlocked the bootloader etc.... So the data had been erased! If I do a wipe data/Factory reset will it work at least at 90/95% ? Despite having only installed the Factory image (without OTA) can it work without doing a bootloop or other...?

Well, I tried and I always fall back on the page with the robot and the inscription "no command" just below. I'm sad ?
If the bootloader is unlocked you maybe have a chance by install TWRP and then install LineageOS 15.1 (wich is much better than stock).

Tell me, the OTA file is used to apply an update, right? Because I tried to do this manipulation but by downloading Exactly the same software and it didn't work. So if I try with a more recent version of Android, it should work, right?

How did you fix it
I had the same exact same fault in December and couldn't work out how to fix. I thought my tablet was just a paperweight now but would be so happy if i could fix it.
do you have a link to the method you used or can you provide more details on how to fix?
what do you mean by the OTA image had to be installed?
Each time I tried to copy the image from my computer to the tablet it failed.
would be grateful for any help.

Hi, if your device is a C pixel, you can try to check it out here: https://developers.google.com/android/ota
To sum up, my problem was the following: suddenly, my tablet could no longer boot on android but on the page where the robot was displayed with a red panel and the indication "no command".
And the solution was the following: being on Android 7.1.2 I had to download Android 8.1.0 for the "update" to work. So I followed all the steps indicated by the site I provided you. That is, having Fastboot and adb working, then putting the.Zip file of your android in the same folder as adb and Fastboot. Then you follow the different steps shown on the site to download the ota image. My explanation is not great so if you have a question about something specific let me know. And if you can send screenshots of your worries it will help.
Good luck with that!

ok i think i found out why i have no update options in my recovery menu! look in my screenshot there it says that DEVICE STATE - locked. i think it means that the bootloader is locked and therefore i dont have the ability to flash the rom. unfortunately i dont know how to unlock the bootloader. all i know is that i first need to activate OEM unlocking in developer options (which i have done). but from here i dont know how to unlock the phone. could you please help me unlock my phone? thank you for the time!
