unable to make or receive calls

my phone was working fine yesterday morning. a install some apps like rom manager, titanium backup and z4root. I rooted my phone and then derooted it. now i`m not able to make or receive calls. whenever I make call phone struck at black screen with notification bar and restarts.
please give quick fix (I have stock rom 2.2.1)

Try to see the APN if they are correctly configured. if that dont work, try to reflash with the stock rom...

have u made a recovery? if yes then great otherwise the last option is always there - installing fresh rom though boot manager .

I have already done the hard reset and haven't created backup. I dont know how to flash fresh rom please give information or link.

How to downgrade firmware on Zenfone 2 Laser?

Hi, I am not happy with the latest update (V1.15.40.639) and would like to downgrade to the previous one (V1.13.40.496). I read on zentalk forum that we can downgrade by downloading the latter firmware from asus site(http://www.asus.com/Phone/ZenFone-2-Laser-ZE550KL/HelpDesk_Download/) and place it on SD card root. The reboot to the recovery and select something like "apply update from external". Can someone confirm if this will work? Is there an easy enough and confirmed way to downgrade the firmware. Any help will be much appreciated.
Edit: The method works!

Haven't done that but it should work, if you face any app crashes you will need to reset phone

Pls don't downgrade it will kill ur phone

Have you tried it? If it goes dead, do you think Asus service center will be able to revive it?

No but have heard that software cannot be downgraded in any phone

He is wrong xD
Like I said the you'd face app crashes which you can fix by resetting phone.
If you are not comfortable to do this then simply go to service center and tell them you want certain update flashed for whatever reason.

Did you actually go into recovery and flash the previous firmware or just let the phone detect the firmware and install it by itself?

I placed the update on sd card. Booted to recovery. cleared data and cache and applied the update via SD Card method. The cleared cache once more and rebooted.Voila!

This method is going to wipe all user data???

Probably a reboot would do the same result.
I have, like many others, the latest firmware and I didn't encounter no problems. So definitely is not the firmware itself.

LOL. That's one question I never ask. It's always a good idea to do a backup before any update, especially if it's a full firmware flash and not an OTA update.

No. I only wiped cache and it seems to have kept the data intact at the time. I had a backup for safety's sake but I did not need to restore it.

Can We root the phone after downgrading it to lollipop using Kingroot?

It can be downgraded
But if u Go from Marshmallow to Lollipop in ZOOL it won't do u any good moreover u would loose your VOLTE update

[PLK-L01][TWRP] System+boot partitions backup ALL VERSIONS

Hi everybody!
Since we all know that the Huawei Recovery is almost bad for updating our phone, I suggest everybody to share their backup of the system+boot partition only.
Of course the backup need to be done with the latest version of TWRP.
So everybody can share and restore the backup easiky. If they have TWRP :good:
You can find it here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-7/development/recovery-twrp-2-8-7-0-hwplk-plk-l01-t3290306
The file is called twrp-2.8.7.0.a-hwplk.zip
I can maintain this topic if people participate, so... Let's try. It's only depending from yourself. :highfive:

Here my backup :
Stock B140 with Root, Busybox, Viper4Android plugin and Call Recording working.
Download link : upload in progress
Thanks.

nice idea :good:
...but.. what about 3rdmodem, dt, nv, nzbalong-modem, etc.? these partitions are patched with updates. if you're restoring the same version over the top it's fine, if not you'll probably end up with bootloops.
i was also working on this when my H7 broke

Hmm, thank you Sir for this useful information.
Any solution to backup these partitions too?

when i finally get the bootloader unlocked on my new one, i'll hopefully put the extra partitions in TWRP.
this thread is still really useful though if people upload untouched versions, we can easily put them on an sd card and get back to an upgradable system as you say the huawei recovery is awful!

If you don't want to wait a email from Huawei for your unlock code (who can never come like me some months ago) and want to unlock directly your H7, there is a very good software that I recommend to you ... No ad, no virus or spyware... You just need to buy 4 credits to unlock your bootloader, its about 4dollars I think, it worked like a charm for me.... Believe me this is not a fake at all.
It was a good solution for me because Huawei said to me by email that I can't unlock my bootloader as you can see here :
Hello Dear user:
Huawei Customer is pleasure to be at your service.
Thank your for your supporting our products.
We are sorry but there is no unlock code for your supply.
You also can contact your local service center for help.
Sorry to bring this problem to you.
If you have any other problem, please send your feedback to us. We will always be at your service to help you to solve your problems. Thank you for your supporting to Huawei and you can add Huawei official Wechat ID: Huawei 400 to learn more.
Hard service 100+, out of service is just the basis, the excess satisfaction is our eternal pursuit!

So feel free to try DC Unlocker at https://www.dc-unlocker.com
By the way I just saw that TWRP permit to backup the 3rdmodem partition and the cust partition.
For the nv partition, I don't think this is needed because it's only used by the system to read your IMEI code.

@sminki
poor boy! I hope you will be able to unlock your boot block!
i crashed my phone two days before. Had forgotten to deselect "bootblock" during recovery! Bam.... Bootloop!
And i get another knowledge too. Recoverying the "cust" partition works, but will kill the ori. stock bootanim!

I'll sort that out when / if i get the unlock code

i need more than 10 tries at 3 different PC’s to get mycode! Sometimes it is not the way we did, but the hardware we use!
Don't wait any longer, make more tries!!! Good luck!
OT mode on
Use the Chinese side and the HUAWEI ID GEN to get your code! Try to take "Y300-0000" model for selection first! Try different browser and switch any adblocker or viruskiller to off!
did you use this side to get a account? https://uniportal.huawei.com/uniportal/forwardLogin.do?redirect=http://www.huawei.com/en/

Please share your TWRP backup of system and boot partitions I need urgently:crying:

Baseband "unknown" / cant access cellular network.

I just recently flashed CM13 to my phone and since then i haven't been able to use my network. After looking about i got told to check my baseband number which turned out to be "unknown". I then checked my IMEI number which also turns out to be "unknown". Iv looked at countless posts on all websites to find a fix for this but i still cant seem to find one.
Update:
I have tried to backup my EFS files from my working backup and then restore them on CM13 but havent had any luck.
Iv also been told to update my modem to a 6.0.1 version but i havent been able to find one after searching everywhere.
If anyone can give me link to somewhere that i can download an updated modem or give me clear instructions on how to restore EFS partitions that would be much appreciated.

Is anyone able to help me at all with this? I will provide any screenshots necessary to fix this problem if i need to. I have also continued to look at more posts about how to fix this and still cant seem to find a working fix.

Sorry I don't know the answer but didn't you make full Backup before flash rom. Including esf partition.
If you make backup try to restore.

It's always a risk flashing a custom Rom. You must have a Nandroid backup or at least a backup of your EFS.

I haven't flashed a CM Rom since my Galaxy S1 days 6 years ago. I did experience then what you experienced now, getting a corrupted IMEI. I'm not in a good position now to help you as I don't have much experience in CM Roms. Best to ask help from the CM thread.
Alternatively, you can try some EFS backup and restore apps from Playstore to restore your EFS (one of which is Flashfire by Chainfire), or you can search in Xda how to restore a backup of your EFS.

i have updated the post with a little more information if anyone could please help me with this issue that would be great.

anyone willing to help me with this?

Is it safe to flash firmwere from Sammobile?

Sorry for noob question .
I rooted my phone earlier this year and haven't gotten OTA updates since .
I would like to bring it to latest version but I am afraid to brick it .
I found this Summobile website . Did anyone used it recently ? Is it safe to do the instructions there ?
Also are there any other steps needed like wiping phone etc ?

I've used them for manually installing OSes onto my Samsung Devices, without any problems at all.

Great !
I just have a little more questions:
Do I have to wipe phone before / after ?
What do I do if I get an error ?

To your first question:
You don't have to wipe your phone - your local data like pictures, music and so on will stay on the device, only your apps will get deleted while flashing.
To your second question:
What kind of errors your do mean? Flashing errors?

I did it .
Everything went OK .
Didn't lose a single thing . Even my apps were intact.
