 This is my build of Koush's ClockWorkMod Recovery 6.0.5.1 for ZTE Open C / Kis 3 (Beeline Smart2, Moche/MEO Smart A16, ZTE
V811W, ZTE V811, Skinny V811, Optus Hop Smart, ZTE Blade M, etc).

This recovery is fully working with goodies such as repeatable keys and adb sideload support. Use volume keys to navigate
menus and power button to select. Internal sdcard is handled differently on Open C and Kis 3 so this recovery only supports
external sdcard.

Do not use this recovery to flash official updates from ZTE website! You need to repack them for ClockWorkMod or use the stock
recovery to install.

How to make clean ROM dump/backup of your device (before you root or install CWM):(recommended)
1. Download and install ZTE USB drivers (windows) or setup udev rules (linux)
2. Download and install Android SDK tools and platform-tools to get adb and fastboot
3. Download recovery-cwm60xx-kis3.img recovery image and rename it to recovery.img
4. Create a new directory somewhere and copy adb(.exe), fastboot(.exe) and recovery.img into it
5. Enable USB debugging on your device (Firefox OS - Settings -> Device information -> More Information -> Developer -> Remote
Debugging --- Android - Settings->Developer options -> Android debugging)
6. Plug in your device via USB cable and install drivers if necessary
7. Open terminal window as an administrator (windows) or execute adb commands with sudo (linux)
8. Change into the directory you've created and execute following commands in terminal window (boots into recovery instead of
flashing it)

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot boot recovery.img

9. select backup & restore -> backup (Seriously, always backup your device before you install anything!)

How to install ClockWorkMod Recovery:

1. Download and install ZTE USB drivers (windows) or setup udev rules (linux)
2. Download and install Android SDK tools and platform-tools to get adb and fastboot
3. Download recovery-cwm60xx-kis3.img recovery image and rename it to recovery.img
4. Create a new directory somewhere and copy adb(.exe), fastboot(.exe) and recovery.img into it

6. Plug in your device via USB cable and install drivers if necessary
7. Open terminal window as an administrator (windows) or execute adb commands with sudo (linux)
8. Change into the directory you've created and execute following commands in terminal window

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot

9. Congratulations, you have installed CWM to your device

10. Boot into ClockWorkMod by pressing volume up while powering on or using 'adb reboot recovery'
11. Select backup & restore -> backup (Seriously, always backup your device before you install anything!)

How to root your (Android) firmware via recovery:

1. Download root app of your choice (Koush's Superuser or Chainfire's SuperSU) and save it to your sdcard
2. Follow instructions on how to install/boot ClockWorkMod recovery
3. Install zip from sdcard -> choose zip from sdcard -> root-app-of-your-choice.zip

Sources for the recovery are available in my github. You can compile it yourself using CM11 source tree.

Twitter: @konstatuomio I've had CWM installed on Firefox OS out-of-the-box (without using silly unlocking tools etc). Then
flashed EU_FFOS+to+Android.zip with stock recovery and installed CWM again. Then installed my CM11, and that's all I've done
to my device (unless failed attempt to update to GEN_EU_P821E10V1.0.0B10 counts :P). I'm still wondering if some of these
devices really have a 'locked' bootloader (mine doesn't).

By old fastboot, I take you mean the stock recovery? Bootloader mode just stays on the splash screen and you'll have fastboot
access.

Have you flashed ZTE updates to your device? It means that you'll likely have a script (/system/etc/install-recovery.sh) that will
replace your recovery with the stock one during a reboot.

Boot the recovery without installing it (fastboot boot recovery-cwm60xx-kis3.img) and make a backup of your stock ROM like
instructed. When you select 'reboot' to boot out of recovery it should ask two questions. Something about root (you can ignore
that) and then a warning about your custom recovery being overwritten. Select the option to prevent that. You should be able to
flash it to the recovery partition so that it will stick after that.

Yeah, it's a driver issue. I still can't believe how winblows can have such major issues with this. Fastboot is a generic Google
mode (USB\VID_18D1&PID_D00D), it's not even something that you'd need a vendor specific driver. There's people with the same
issue on my Blade III CWM thread and also few versions of fastboot drivers posted there. Also Google search for 'windows 8
fastboot driver' will give you plenty of results.

yorksims, watch the video above, do the same things on win 7 - the disable signature thing - and download and install the adb
driver that is on video description. Hope it works - it did for me, I had the same problem, but on win 8.1.

It doesn't switch off. There's just no visual confirmation that you've booted to bootloader mode. On Firefox OS bootloader, it just
stays on the splash image. On Android bootloader, it stays on a blank screen. This is when you should execute fastboot
commands. E.g. you can 'fastboot devices' to see that you can access your device. If not, you likely need to install some fastboot
drivers (see above).

 Many thanks for all of your help guys.

I had suspected a driver issue but my device manager showed no missing drivers and a ZTE adb driver installed so I wrongly
assumed that it would work.

adb devices

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot devices

and with the new driver installed fastboot showed the device and I could continue to boot into the new recovery to make a backup
then go through the process again to flash it.I then flashed Super SU and one of the trimmed down versions of Gapps and now
have one very cheap (£38.99) Kitkat phone to use for work.

I do also have a small confession to make though that may save others some grief,don't do what I did and blindly copy and paste
the fastboot commands from the OP and then wonder why fastboot can't find the recovery file.

I spent another half hour scratching my head before realising that the command in the OP refers to cwm60xx but of course the
image file is cwm6050 so once I'd put right that schoolboy error that I'd made,all was good.

Sure, if you choose to install separate Google apps package (you don't have to if you don't want to).

Then some Android 101. Concept of root (having administrative access) is something related to running an operating system.
You don't need to root your device to install a custom recovery (CWM, TWRP), you only need to have an 'unlocked' bootloader that
Members is accessible with fastboot (which all of these ZTE devices already have). You don't need to root your device to install a custom
