️ HarmonyOS Support on Huawei (Kirin CPUs) Phones ️ First in the World Factory/bootrom mode (HUAWEI USB COM 1.0) service functions are now available on Huawei phones with HarmonyOS!
Here are some of our most used factory/bootrom mode functions:
- FRP and Huawei ID Remove
- Modify OEMInfo (Vendor/Country, Disable FW version check, ...)
- Load Factory Fastboot (partially supported; updates in progress)
- And many more...
The Problem
Due to some changes done by Huawei, phones that are updated to HarmonyOS, would not present the Huawei USB COM 1.0 serial port after test pointing. Without the Huawei USB COM 1.0 serial port Chimera cannot communicate to these devices in factory/bootrom mode.
The Solution
You need to use a modified USB cable, we call it the "Harmony TP Cable". If this cable is used, Huawei USB COM 1.0 serial port is available and all Chimera factory/bootrom mode service functions will work on HarmonyOS models.
Harmony TP Cable, How-to
What you need:
- 1 pc. 150 Ohm (150 Ω) resistor
- 1 pc. 270 Ohm (270 Ω) resistor
- 1 pc. 1.5 kiloohm (1.5 kΩ) resistor
- and 1 pc. standard USB cable
Here is how to make the cable or can buy these cables at Martview
Important Notes
- You still have to test point (this cable only works if the test pointing is done)
- Make sure that you always connect the cable to the phone first
- Make sure, when asked to disconnect you always disconnect the cable from the computer first
- You have to see the Huawei USB COM 1.0 serial port in Windows Device Manager. If you cannot see it, most probably the modified cable is wrong.
FAQ

I disconnected the cable but I can still see the phone connected, why?
