If you follow the instructions it does work.

I would suggest you look at the Huawei manual so you know what buttons you are supposed to be pushing when you turn your phone back up.

End + volume down. (hold these down first) then power on.

Also make sure that you open the .bat file with your respective computer system.

The first time I tried it, I accidentally did the .exe file and it didn't work. then opened the .bat file and magically everything happened. NO more Bricked phone.
