Hello
Today i recieved the jellybean ota update. its not working. i searched for a while and found out that ill have to update it with something called cwm and this requires root, but i dont want to root my phone. so i thought it would be possible to downgrade my device but apparently this also requires root. I have an unlocked bootloader but is there no way to update/downgrade my device without using root?

cwm does not require root, just an unlocked bootloader.

Hi Folks,
Just wondered with the B111 firmware do you need to root your phone to install?

Nope, rooting is not needed.

If I did root, would I be able to remove all the stock crap that comes on the phone ? Or would I need a custom rom also ?
Yeah, I rooted my B111 and froze a lot of Huawei apks with Titanium Backup

My box is hardware rooted at 51.1.4.3. Is there a way to update my firmware to 51.1.5.0 and retain root without having to resolder the wires?

If he is at 51.1.4.3 then he can't use the custom roms because those require recovery, which require unlocked bootloader. You can't unlock if you are at 51.1.4.3.

Is it possible to copy su to the official 51.1.5 rom and perform a manual update?
you should be able to downgrade to 51.1.0.2_user_510058520, install CWM, unlock the bootloader, upgrade to bueller-51.1.4.0_514006420-rooted+updated, install Rbox's boot menu, and upgrade to bueller-51.1.5.0_515020820-rooted.
if you do this, I'd stick towel root on there just in case.
My boot loader is locked. Can't downgrade. My box is hardware rooted at v51.1.4.3. If I allow it to accept the latest v51.1.5 update over the network, I will lose root. The only way to regain root is by re-soldering the wires and perform hardware root again.
The question was: Is it possible to somehow add su to the official firmware, bueller-ota-51.1.5.0_user_515030720-signed.bin, and perform a manual update using this modified file?

No. Stock recovery will only accept signed updates.
