Hey,
I recently bought this phone Huawei U8500, and I had a long search on the net where can I get a working recovery, finally I found a modified clockworkmod recovery.
It seems that this phone is highly unpopular.
I just wanted to share my finding.
Here you can download this modified version: Download
Steps to install recovery:
1. Download the clockworkmod
2. Unrar it somewhere on your computer
3. Turn off your phone
4. Press & Hold volume down key + call end (red) key and then press power key.
5. Launch the .bat file on your computer + connect your phone via USB
6. When it's finished, take out the battery and wait 5 seconds before putting it back in
7. Then you can access the recovery by holding volume up key + call(green) key
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One thing I can recommend If your phones android build version doesn't end with "712", I suggest you to update it to the beta release, you'll have more functional dual-touch.
Here is the beta froyo update: Download
To install it:
1. Unrar it to your computer, and find a folder named "dload" with the biggest size.
2. Copy that "dload" filder to root of your SD card
3. turn off phone
4. Hold volume up key + end call (red) key and the press power key. Wait for it to load, it will say something like "Updating system" Wait for it to finish, if it says fail, just try again
5. After it says "Update complete" or "Update successful" just restart your phone and you'll have the new beta firmware.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the Russian site I found some unofficial ROM's too.
I haven't tried them yes but if someone is willing here you can download them:
Firmware 2.2 29.01.2011 by Pavlo78
u8500_mao_rls7b2
u8500_mao_rls7++by_march_2
u8500_mao_rls8_by_march
u8500_mao_rls8_by_march
To install one of these ROM's do the following:
1. Copy the ZIP file on root of your SD card, the ZIP file, not RAR.
2. Boot up your phone in recovery mode (by holding volume up key + call(green) key)
3. With your optical trackpad select "Install zip from sd card"
4. From the list choose your ZIP file
5. And then just wait till the installation is complete and then just restart the phone!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I highly recommend you to back up the original firmware before installing new ROM's
You can do that in recovery mode, just click on nandroid and follow the on screen instructions it will backup your current firmware + your currently installed apps.
I'm not responsible for bricking your phone, if something doesn't go well. By doing the things I wrote, you may void your phones warranty.
Don't forget to thank me
Kind regards

This is really helpful...a lot of Bangladeshis will be needing this. Telenor just launched this phone here.
I am using Huawei U8500 (Local branded as GrameenPhone Crystal). I have backed up my current ROM using ROM Manager. Can anyone confirm that the back-up ROM contains all the information including the Customized Branding???

hey im thinking bout buying this phone as i live in bangladesh... can anyone confirm me about the froyo upgrade does it work???
I did download the beta firmware.
And updated the phone's firmware a few minutes ago.
I have the dual touch now, yay (and a little better keyboard).
Many thanks from a Droid noob.
This should be enough for all your stock rom needs.
http://wiki.modaco.com/index.php/Huawei_Firmware_U8500
BTW: If you install the clockwordmod, you will lose the GP stock bootup screen (not the boot animation). So if you are going to claim warranty make sure you flash the GP firmware before you go to the GP centre.
Someone was asking how this phone is...the only issue I have is knowing that I'll never have flash on this thanks to the arm6 processor.

There is a thread in the port section of the Cyanogenmod forum. It started with a lame question but later a lot was discussed about gingerbread 2.3.4. There is a Chinese developer (Slax) who has been working on the rom. However, this rom does have a few issues.
I don't know Chinese and google translate is incomprehensible. You should be able to find all the links needed in the cyanogenmod forum.
here is the link.
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/21467-huawei-u8500/
for froyo try trial and error with all the official roms. if you don't like one change it. eventually you will find one that meets your need.

open in notepad and change the line:
adb wait-for-defice
to
adb wait-for-device
the f should be a v lol. then file and save. it works.
actually just checked and even though the thing ran i haven't yet got it to work. i got a segmentation fault of the
adb shell "app_process /dev/null"
line and i dont this the superuser.apk installed right. when it loaded up the phone it asked me what to run it with. i had the option of: go launcher ex and launcher. neither worked. i read online just go to the market and find the app superuser. am trying that now.

Sorry for the above linklessness, forum won't let me post links just yet.
Thanks for the help with this phone... I did have a helluva time trying to find the proper driver for this phone.. I can't even imagine how many Samsung drivers are installed on my PC now with all these samsung phones I have rooted and ROM'ed.
Hopefully we will see someone port the Cynogenmod to this phone or finish what the one guy may or may not have started...
Thanks again!

sometimes you might have to run the program 3x or more so just be patient.
you will also have to install the superuser.apk & the busybox.apk
before you will be able to verify you are rooted with root checker.
I am also looking at getting one of these phones in the near future (Vitality through Cricket).
I'll be sure to update this thread with any customizations/themes/ROMs I make in the coming months.
Cheers.
Just picked up this phone today.
Flashed my own root to it -- OK
flashed CWM -- OK
Packaged up system image and xferred to PC for decompile -- OK
I'll be working on a custom ROM for this phone soon enough.
I hear theres a beta CM7 floating around the net somwhere, but its spotty at best.
I'll be making a ROM similar to my OpenPDP/Zio flavors located in my sig.
Look for it.
~Cheers.

-After the computer recognizes it open zadig.exe
-Click on Options and click on List All Devices
-Go to the List and mow you should see "Samsung USB Composite Device" on the list.
-Click on Install Drivers
-Done.
Step 4. Attain Back to Life / Heimdall Suite

I have two Attains. 1 is rooted and screwed. It says for "baseband: Unknown". Samsung simple upgrade doesn't recognize it and when I put it into recovery/download mode it say "ODIN" at the top. It won't come out of airplane mode. It has been rooted by the previous owner. I am trying to return it to it previous glory. I want to start fresh. The other is untouched. The factory ROM is still intact and the phone is fresh. How do I copy the factory data and restore the screwed phone.
Please, I am a noobi so let's play nice. I have rooted my admires previously. Both of them are fine. One I even updated and rooted with odin.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanx in advance

Samsung ON5. G550T1 ROOTED ZIP available upon request
Yeah I'm a bit confused at the methods. One guide tells you to use the official website, other threads take you to that same one. I havent had an Xperia Play since late 2012 - early 2013 and I found this one back in my old stuff. Sony website tells you to check with the dialer and see if it says yours is allowed to be unlocked. Mine has NOTHING. So what I'm supposed to suffer about 3-4 years later in the future because Verizon still decides they want to continue hiding whatever secrets this device packs?
I'm trying to experiment with custom roms. Stock is boring and would also love to root (which I can't because I'm on 2.3.4 since I'm an idiot).
We didn't even know about jellybean when I first had this thing. Now we have KitKat which is also aimed and claimed to run on a minimum of 512mb ram.
Any help?
Anybody? Its very frustrating as this phone has some potential.

Hi Crossvxm,
You can definitely unlock the bootloader on your phone. The Verizon Xperia Play doesn't show the bootloader unlock status in the service menu, but it's been confirmed in lots of other posts where R800x owners have unlocked their bootloaders. I have also done it personally with the Sony Official method. Here's the link to the Sony website if you want to give it a go: http://developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader/
You can also root your R800x while it's still on 2.3.4 using the Eroot method. See this thread for more information on Eroot: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2240285. Please make sure to hit the thanks button for Nabeel, wym986, Vokal1992, and any others who helped bring this root method to us. The direct download link for the Eroot version that I have used is: https://www.dropbox.com/s/jnwl5r3fnsssbuu/Eroot_V1.3.4.exe. If you want to check the MD5 checksum after downloading it, it should be: 459d8bdda203a5f5e9d28231fa6df6b0
Here are some instructions that I made for my friend to help him root his R800x, but the thread mentioned above also has instructions...
-Eroot Instructions-
1. Disable the anti-virus software on your computer to prevent it from stopping the root exploit
2. Go to your phone Settings/ Applications/Developer Options and Make USB Debugging is enabled. (I don't know if it's necessary, but I also check the box to allow Unknown Sources).
3. Plug your phone into the computer with a USB cable and make sure your phone is recognized by the computer before proceeding
4. Right click on the Eroot application and run it as Administrator
5. Eroot should recognize that your phone is connected and after a brief moment, it should prompt you to click on a green “Root” button. Click that button and it will show steps 1-4. Once it completes its process, your phone should be rooted with the Superuser app installed.
(PS: After it roots the phone, it will turn off Wifi. Just go back into your phone's settings and toggle the Wifi back on to get it working again).
I had some trouble getting the Superuser binaries to update after completing the above steps... so I used Titanium Backup Pro to wipe data/clear cache and uninstall the Superuser app. I then went to the Play store and reinstalled it. (This is the Superuser version I am using and it works fine: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.superuser&hl=en ).
Good luck.

Giving this a try right now
Cool man. I hope you can get the bootloader unlocked and get rooted so you can experiment with some of the newer ROM'S. I recently bought my Xperia Play really cheap off eBay and I'm having fun playing with it. I'm really only using it as a gaming device because I have a rooted/ROM'ed Samsung Note 2 as my daily driver.
Let us know how things turn out.

It worked, my bootloader seems to have successfully unlocked. I also used the root tool you mentioned and in about 3 tries it actually rooted it! And BTW, i found this Xperia Play in a box from when I moved to NYC and i forgot all about it. I also use it for games that cant be playes on a touchscreen like Megaman X4 and Super Mario World. But I use my G2 for everything else. Its just hard to run and jump on Mario with touchscreen buttons when you have to use your entire thumb for both of those and your other thumb to move.
Now my question is, how do i install a custom recovery? I used the X-Parted apk and a CWM installer apk from the same dev, and it seems to flash the recovery, but when i click for it to reboot into recovery the device reboots normally. Also, when I try to manually reboot it into the custom recovery, it just powers off after the android symbol and restarts normally. Has me stumped as to why.

Cool man. That's great that you can ressurect your Xperia Play and enjoy using it again. I'm having a blast with using emulators. My friend recently introduced me to Quake and I've been playing it a lot lately. (If you have any interest in Quake, I just started a thread in the Theme and Apps section with instructions on how to get it running on the Xperia Play using the FTEDroid port and Gamekeyboard+, which allows you play it with the phone's hard key controllers). .
Anyway... I also had trouble using the Xparts app to install CWM. I found another thread that provides a command script to install it, and it's worked perfectly for me every time.
Here are some instructions that I typed up a while back when I was helping my friend root his R800x... The credit for this should go to the original poster in the thread and to all of the people who helped develop the CWM .
--------------------------------------------
INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS FOR CWM
**I believe that around 2 MB of Internal Storage is needed to install this CWM version on the Xperia Play
1. Go to this thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1390771 ) to find and download the file "CWM-Install.rar"
2. Unzip the contents of the downloaded package into a file folder where you can find it later
3. Make sure USB debugging is enabled on your phone and plug your rooted R800x into the computer via USB cable
3. Navigate to the folder on your computer where you unzipped the .rar file. (Per the above thread's instructions, you need to run the command script for "install-cwm1.cmd." You can do this by locating that file and double clicking on it. This should start a command terminal window to install CWM...just follow the prompts in the command terminal and you should have CWM installed on your phone
**In order to boot into the CWM Recovery on the Stock Kernel, you need to press the phone's Power Button and then repeatedly tap the Volume Down button as it boots up. Once you are in the CWM recovery, use the Volume keys to navigate up and down, the Home key to select, the Back key to return to the previous menu.

Cool man. That's great that you can ressurect your Xperia Play and enjoy using it again. I'm having a blast with using emulators.

Worked 100%! I owe you big time! I am now running Super Jellybean 8.0 along with Turbo Kernel and honestly the performance on this rom alone is "godly!" I first tried Racing Speed rom but reading on the features of Super JellyBean made me want to try it out. Although the touchpad support breaks (no more Mario 64...) its overall performance makes up for the loss. Either way i do use the buttons more anyways on ps1 and snes games.
I now feel like the Xperia Play "caught up" with my other devices, it was the only Gingerbread device i have touched in a year.
I would love to see the KitKat rom thats currently a work in progress someday work completely.
Since KK was said to be able to run on 512mb ram, i think it would further improve this device's potential.
That's good to hear you're rooted and unlocked and glad I could help. I know that I found it frustrating when I was trying to figure out how to root and unlock the bootloader for our Verizon version of this phone. I kept reading that you couldn't root it on build 2.3.4, but finally stumbled onto Eroot. It seems there's not a lot of Verizon R800x users in the Xperia Play threads... so we got to stick together, lol.
:thumbup:
if i unlock the bootloader i can install twrp with problems? im thinking og buying an xperia play r800x to install twrp and android 4.4.4 with cm 11 designed for xperia play
Crossvxm, can I mail you my xperia play? I wanted to know if you'd unlock the bootloader and install a custom rom. I want a more modern version of the android os running on the play. Please help
Looking for any information and help on rooting this device. Thanks in advance.

I managed to root this device today using king root. The first try failed. I ran it a second time and got it to work. I installed titanium backup which gave a warning that the superuser binary was functional but may cause problems. I installed supersu from the play store and tried to update the binary, which failed, even after a restart. Not sure what that means, perhaps someone more knowledgeable can tell me. I also installed other root apps, SD maid pro and rom toolbox pro, both of which seem to function as they should. I have yet to confirm root with a root checker but I intend to shortly. Hopefully this information will help with further development of this device.
The above listed method works. I did it this morning by fluke. I just tried it thinking it wouldn't work but it did. I have lollipop v 5.0.2 and the kingrooy file I downloaded was from google searching "king root" without apk. Half way down you should see the 4.6 link.
Current version is 4.6x which works on most newer mid grade phones. Then I used kingroot to SuperSU files and setup which I got from Google. Can't remember link but search kingroot to supersu and it should be the first link. Run and reboot enter supersu and update binary. You ready to install root apps, debloat, and customize. Haven't found any customs kernel, ROMs, recovery, or anything so I will be working on that soon. Keep an eye out in the near future. Unregistered user until I finish posting.

King root
King root version 4.5.0 works for Alcatel one touch conquest thank you very much. Titanium backup doesn't like the manager and anticipates problems and recommends superSU. I was unable to install the binary normally but haven't tried using the cwm or twerp option. Busybox 26 installed and I'm new to xda and will continue on the subject.

Yep, that method works great. I was looking for a.method to.root this device. The only difference was I used this link to switch from KingRoot to SuperSU

my device is bricked! i have the alcatel onetouch conquest 7046t for boost mobile....i read this thread and decided to do exactly what everyone who posted on the thread said to do...i i got kingroot version 4.6, and it worked on the second try....but no root apps would work... netspoof said that i might have not given it superuser permissions ( which i did...when kingroot asked i clicked allow) and titanium backup pro said it failed to get root and that it recommends supersu....i installed superuser from chains sd and tried to update the binaries, but it failed......i notcied that in superuser it said that i had root and it said something about kinguser in superuser...so it bacame clear to me that i need to switch kinguser with superuser...or supersu like titanium backup and this thread suggested
so i followed the directions and found kingroot to supersu on google and let the app "supersu me" do its thing...
while supersume was uninstalling kingroot, and installing supersu....something popped up and asked me if i wanted to delete all the files associated with kingroot...i clicked yes....and thats what i think caused my phone to brick
when it said supersu was successfully installed, i went to the app and successfully updated the binaries...right....well it told me that i should reboot the phone because i just updated the binaries so i clicked the reboot now button that the app offered me and the phone went to reboot....but stayed at the alcatel onetouch screen and all i can access is the recovery mode....in recovery logs it says something about no such file or directory for dev/tty0 or soemthing. it said it again in something about the bootloader....
so i think what happened is when i told supersu me to delete all files associated with kingroot it went ahead and deleted a bootloader file or something....normally i would just reinstall the stock rom but this damn phone is so new there isnt one online anywhere
so anyways....can anyone tell me where to get the stock rom or how to unbrick my phone.....i want to just put the stockrom on an sd card and apply it as an update to restore whatever file that is missing and keeping it from booting up....i was thinking (since i happen to have a duplicate phone) that i could make a backup of the same exact phone in twrp and put it on the sd card, switch it to the bricked phone...recovery mode...apply update from phone storage...and bam...that shoulod work! right?
the only thing is....can you put twrp on this phone yet? there is really no development on it at all
so here are the questions i need answered
does anyone have a stock rom of this phone they could put in this thread?
can i get the stock rom straight from alcatel?
has anyone got twrp or cwm recovery onto this phone
i have never bricked a phone and not been able to fix it...i refuse this to be the one

same thing here, except I can't boot into recovery or download. fflashcustom custom twrp from the aforementioned. still won't boot into recovery, hangs at the alacatel logo. what I did was hold down volume and power til it reboots 3&4 times, than it seems to boot back to a android. I even tried the factory restore and it wouldn't do that either. *shrug* imma hafta do more research and find out wtf. but ya, that should fix your sh*t. also. and haven't found the boost stock rom yet either. it's a custom rom, it's not actually lollipop.

I couldn't find the Alcatel Onetouch Conquest 7046t listed in the list of devices on this site at all, other than in a few posts. Maybe people don't think it's a worthy device to work on? Anyway, enough of that rant, what I would like to contribute here is that I tried using kingroot for my old Motorola xt912 which I had install Dirty Unicorns KitKat ROM on successfully, but lost root on. First it said it couldn't root it, then, after trying again, said it could. I started receiving alerts from Avast staying it has detected viruses, and it seemed to install it's own version of super user, when I already had the one by chain installed.. Which struck me as suspect activity and rose yet more red flags.
I also find it suspect that the users posting here on this thread seem to only be newbies.
Any thoughts or feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks for reading.
P.S. .. And yes, I am interested in rooting this phone, debloating it, installing custom rooms, etc.

Rusty, it's possible that the reason your phone bricked is that it was not fully/properly rooted in the first place. So when SuperSu tried to Un-kingroot it, something went terribly wrong. By the way, had you remembered to turn Developer Options on and set USB Debugging on before running the KingRoot app?
Anyway, there are a couple of options to easily unbrick since you have an identical device.
Note that you can't unbrick by installing TWRP or CWM on your working device, then flashing the bricked device, UNLESS you already have the same custom recovery installed on the bricked device and can boot into that recovery. These recoveries do not provide their backups as a flashable zip, nor are they compatible with each other, which is why you need the identical custom recovery on the bricked phone.
Here is how you can unbrick your device. Go to Alcatel's website and download and install their Mobile Upgrade S software - you will find the link in the support tab for most of their models (or use Google to find it). This is the official Alcatel tool that you would use to flash their stock ROMs onto your bricked phone.
That's the easy method. But if you want a learning adventure, let's pull out your working device. Lol. Go ahead and root it with the King Root app. You may have to try several times to get it fully and properly rooted. Make sure you run a root checker app to confirm that it's rooted. Do not use the SuperSu Me utility yet.
Once you've confirmed it's rooted, install busybox. I prefer the Busy Box X app from Rob Nedi over Stericson's.
Ok, so now we want to install the MTK Droid Tools on your computer. On your phone, make sure USB Debugging is still on. Now connect your phone to the computer and let the drivers for the phone automatically install. Once the drivers are installed, run MTK Droid. It should automatically detect your phone. Next select the Blocks Map button. Then save the scatter.txt file it gives you. Make a folder somewhere because you're going to next use SP Flash Tool to backup the ROM from your phone.
Use Google and XDA to learn how to use MTK Droid and SPF. Here's a helpful link:
http://freaktab.com/forum/mtk-based-devices/mtk-phones/13919-some-useful-tools-for-mtk-phones
Once you've installed SPF on your computer and created the ROM_0 readback of your ROM, go back to MTK Droid Tools and let it break the ROM_0 down into all the partitions that are contained in the ROM. You do this on the root.backup.recovery tab of MTK Droid. Select the "To Process File ROM From Flash Tool". Note that during this process, the Tool will give you the option to create the ClowWorkMod recovery for your phone!
Once the ROM partition files are created by MTK Droid, place them in that folder you created. At this point, you can use SPF to flash the stock ROM to your bricked phone. This will unbrick your phone.
(There's an even simpler way to unbrick your phone with SPF. Instead of backing up the entire ROM of your working phone with SPF and then processing that ROM woth MTK Droid, in this case, you will just READBACK the ROM up to the recovery partition and no further. Then do a direct MEMORY WRITE of that partial ROM to your bricked phone. This will unbrick it. But this approach will not allow you to create the CWM recovery.)
Finally, once you've unbricked your phone, you can install either the Flashify or Rashr app on your phone, and use that to flash the CWM recovery image you just made with MTK Droid onto your phone's recovery partition. I usually also flash the boot_patched boot image, which was also created by MTK Droid, to the boot/kernel partition.
Long post, but I wasn't sure if you were up to an adventure. Please note that there is always a risk that you brick your working device if you make a dumb mistake along the way. It's going to be really hard to brick your working phone because you're pretty much just reading from it and not writing anything to it except when you are rooting it....but just be careful. You've been warned. Lol. But I suspect that like me, a bricked device is just a learning challenge. So enjoy.
Don't forget to thank me!

Ya I've been doin this for awhile and have an extensive list of phones I have rooted, debloated, installed custom roms on etc....and I have never had as much trouble with a device as I have with this phone....this pos phone isn't even on their site! I got another phone from boost (same one) And did the same root method....bricked it.....but I still have the one bricked phone....waiting for a stock ROM

Rusty they sent that phone to you special delivery from HELL! They're just testing you, bro. Lol
But seriously, I think if you could somehow get the scatter.txt for the demon (without having to risk rooting and bricking a good one), then it would be possible to use SP Flash to simply read back the ROM of a properly working phone (up to and including the recovery partition) then simply do a direct memory write onto any bricked device. Should wake it up immediately after the flash. The only exception would be if the custpack partition had something really stupid done to it...like someone messing with the buildprop.txt file! That would put it into a head-spinning bootloop.
So the key here for this demon is for someone on this thread to post the scatter.txt file PLUS a working stock ROM. Is there anyone out there who has already successfully rooted who can post a ROM? Or at least post the scatter.txt?

i tried rooting the new alcatel the same exact way ( usb debugging was enabled both times) and ended up bricking it....i was doing this for my friend...we ended up just going to boost and telling them that there was a defect in the phone they gave him the day before and told them to give him the moto e ( which has so much developement on it its insane)
anyways my friend just gave me the other bricked alcatel one touch conquest and said that if i can fix it i can have it. so i no longer have a duplicate device to work with . can i even flash a stock rom with the original recovery ? im going to try to download the program from alcatels website like you said and see if that works
then if i get it working im going to get the program you were talking about where u said i can make a clockworkmod recovery for it....

strike the alcatel mobile upgrade S off the list of possibilities...
first of all.... the alcatel onetouch conquest 7046t is not even listed in supported devices, and when i downloaded/ installed mobile upgrade to my windows computer it said " pick your device " and it wasdnt listed in the dropdown menu there either
i still tried selecting the 7047 , because it was closest to 7046, and tried to run the program and it just said it was scaning my device for an ungodly amount of time
so im looking for other methods

Uh oh! I think I see the problem here. The Conquest runs a QUALCOMM chip! All along, I've been running with the assumption that this Alcatel was running the MTK chipset. Everything I've described here is thus for naught! Those tools, like SPF and MTK Droid, only work with phones that use the MTK platform. They will not even recognize the Conquest.
My sincere apologies, but I don't even know what tools would even work with this sucker. Oh my God... I'm beside myself with embarrassment...I can't believe I made such a serious mistake.

Did you get full root with KingRoot? Do your root apps actually work properly? Please confirm as others have reported that the root with KingRoot did not function properly or with all root apps.
Another question several people have is where to get the flashable stock firmware for this phone?
