This is a known issue on Huawei MediaTek devices when using certain patched bootloaders on newer Android versions. If your IMEI shows up as unknown, you must downgrade to an Android 9 or 10-based system image to restore cellular functionality.
LineageOS is the gold standard of the custom ROM world. For the Huawei Y5 2019, an unofficial build of LineageOS (often based on Android 10, 11, or sometimes 12) is frequently the "top" choice. It offers a near-stock Android experience, stripping away the heavy EMUI overlay. The benefit here is performance. Without the EMUI background services running, the Helio A22 processor can breathe. Users report significantly smoother UI navigation and better RAM management. Features like "Privacy Guard" allow users to block apps from accessing the clipboard or waking the device, which is crucial for battery preservation on a small 3020mAh battery.
Because the phone only has 2GB of RAM, avoid installing large, heavy GApps packages. Choose "Vanilla" GSI images and install lightweight apps manually.
Historically, Huawei allowed users to unlock their bootloaders via a paid service, but they eventually shut down this portal entirely. For the Y5 (2019), unlocking the bootloader is the single hardest step in the entire process. Unlike Xiaomi or OnePlus, where unlocking is an official, straightforward process, Huawei users often have to rely on paid third-party services or complex exploits (such as PotatoNV) to bypass the manufacturer's lock.
This post, echoed in many languages across forums in Turkey, Germany, Spain, and Russia, reveals a common experience: users search for custom ROMs only to find broken links and outdated guides. A frequent piece of advice seen in discussion boards is that “the chance of finding a free custom ROM for a Huawei phone is very low” – recommending users to simply perform a factory reset and disable unnecessary apps instead.
Community tools like the “Huawei Bootloader Bruteforce” software have appeared on GitHub, attempting to guess the unlock code through repeated Fastboot attempts. The success rate is , and the process can take days or weeks.
