Well basically from what I noticed quadrant scores a lot higher when unstable. I was getting 2200+ at 1.5 but that was very unstable (freezing, restarting etc) once I dropped it to a stable frequently (1.4 for me) it got 1814 in quadrant but I have no issues

Try dropping it a step or 2 as all silicon is different. At 1.3 you may notice more stability therefore better for you

Let me know :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] levibuko:
thx, i'll try now 1.3 ghz and tell you how it works.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] bujcri:
good

Pretty good so far, 1.4 GHz overclock seems to be stable, only swype not working, but not needed anyway.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] levibuko:
ive now 1.3 ghz and it didnt freeze. but ive found a bug. when i type a number with the dialer and then press add as contact android. process. acore stops.

i hope that you understand what i mean ^^

edit: it freezed now....

i think that that it isnt the cpu. what can it be? but ill try now with 1.2 ght....
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skifyr123:
mine stops too, with the message..
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] oodi:
I can also confirm this bug.

Otherwise seems to be working great.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Piron:
no add contact

I can also confirm this bug. , I wrote about him earlier. I did a full wipe, but the error remained.:(
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
Oh well I'll just run Titanium Backup first. Awesome ROM btw :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Recka:
I can't confirm this bug as I don't use it to call. However if you can drop it to 1.3 and still freeze it may be another app you have? or it could be the CPU and it's just not a great one :P but I doubt that.

Let us know how 1.2 goes
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] stockwell:
Sorry about that, just investigated and it has a simple fix. It is caused by the framework missing an image.

I'll post the fix up soon.

EDIT: sorry guys this is more complicated than I thought. The image is there but isn't properly defined. This will have to wait until I get home from work.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Piron:
no add contact

my settings is 1.1 and the error still occurs.:(
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] stockwell:
Fixed framework-res.apk

Here is the fix, please have a look around the interface and post if there is anything that is strange or doesn't belong.

Now add contacts already working.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] oodi:
Can confirm, it works now.

Thank you for the quick fix.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
Mine doesn't show anything on the screen now after boot.

EDIT: Fixed I just popped the framwork-res from the update-zip you supplied on page 1 into the framwork-fix.zip and applied

After the factory restore and restore from titanium backup the Gmail sync doesn't work and doesn't show up in sync settings.

Had to do some manual cleaning of /data and /cust now it's fine =)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] levibuko:
1,2 ghz works like a charm! dungeon hunter 2 and other gemloft games are working perfectly. with quadrant ive a score of 1853 points :9

it works now since 12 hours and i did have any freeze :)

edit: it freezed. but ive noticed that when it freezed i had running a lot of apps in the ba kground. so i installed atk and it showed 14 apps running after a restart! is that maybe fhe problem? there where apps like layar which i ve never used and cant delete them? any advice?

how can i install the new framework?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Recka:
Hmm I only recall 1801 on quad at 1.4... will run it again :P

I guess the libraries are install from SD?

Edit: Re-ran, 1971 :P
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] iamelton:
i usually get 1800-1900 on 1GHz.. (highest score: 2006..)

so is 1.2 or 1.4GHz making a noticeable difference? :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Poulsen8r:
I get about 2200 at 1.5GHz, But linpack is over 50 so a pretty good improvement.:p
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] levibuko:
what ate you meaning with libraries? ^^

ive just installed the rom without changes
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Cephalus:
Firstly, Stockwell, many MANY thanks for your efforts.

I bought this 'phone thinking "relatively unknown brand, probably won't have any community support, I'll live with the stock ROM," only to find myself flashing it now after having owned it for less than a week.

Wish I could say I was one of the lucky ones with a CPU that runs happily at 1.5GHz, but I'm more than happy with having it 100% stable at 1.3GHz (tried 1.4 but it would lock and/or reboot every few minutes).

I was lucky in not having the camera issue noted by others, but had to apply the "Framework Fix."

One thing I lamented from the upgrade was the absence of RichPad, which I found very useful (I don't "doodle," but there're times a quick method of scribbling a schematic comes in handy), and this app isn't available from the market. For those interested in resurrecting RichPad, I found it here (or Google-translated, here).

Put the ZIP file anywhere on your SD card, then boot into Clockwork Recovery. Choose "Install ZIP from SD Card" -> "Choose ZIP from SD Card" then navigate to the appropriate file (ClockWork will display the entire directory structure and all files for selection).

On a closing note... I think it goes without saying that we're all looking forward to GB or HC becoming available some time soon?

Edit: I know there's no talk at the moment of HoneyComb ever becoming available for 'phone handsets, but this article infers imminent availability of Android 2.4, which will apparently run HoneyComb apps. What's more, it'll become available on the U8800's bigger brother, the U9000 (or at least the ViewSonic-branded version thereof), which from all accounts is not at all dissimilar to the U8800 hardware-wise.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Marensius:
My U8800 didnt like 1.5 ghz, but turned on smartass. After that the phone didnt reboot itself...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Piron:
thanks

stockwell, I've got to tell you - you did a great job. The ROM works very well. I personally recomend setting the CPU to 1.2ghz which will assure the X5 works stably. I removed a few useless things from the ROM and made a few adjustments and the phone works great. I've had many phones, mostly from HTC (WM and Android) but this phone really amazes me. It's great that there's someone like you who devoted his free time to help make our toys better. Thanks and keep up the good work.:)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Piron:
To increase the volume in the headphones, set the value above 75 (hwVolumeFactor-wired_headset). my settings is 90 In the previous ROM was enough 75.

To be completely happy I only FM RADIO.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] crusty210:
can you please give detailed instructions to increase the headphone volume? Thanks alot

Since the camera fix does anyone else notice that recording is limited to 8FPS (and was limited to 16 prior)

Is this something that can be addressed (especially since it goes 1.2ghz stable which can EASILY smoke 720 at 30fps ;))

Also anyone done any physical hacks with the camera for quality?

Yes they happen sometimes but rarely. Do you also have smartass on?

Stockwell how is it going with a update package for the new kernel? :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Cephalus:
It's much like the "System Idle Process" chewing up most of your CPU in Windows - if there's nothing else using a significant amount of your battery, only the Android operating system will show in your battery usage display.

Try installing AVG for Android and letting it do a full scan - then you'll see what it looks like when an app chews through your battery and CPU.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjevel:
If the phone is very warm at the same time, and your CPU is running at 100 % it sounds like you had a partial or unsuccessful flash.

Try reflashing.

Anyone else have issue of touchscreen loosing input? Putting in my pattern is become exceedingly difficult. What I mean is, if im doing pattern my phone will randomly think i've let go of the screen. This happens pretty much for anything, dragging apps, holding down. It just drops input, but its seems software because its not 100% of the time.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] aleksander8:
This happens if i lock the screen directly from the camera app, it gets almost impossible to unlock the screen again, if i exit the camera first its all fine.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ryronz:
It was happening without launching camera, but actually going into camera hitting back and then doing it works. You sir are infact my hero.

EDIT: Nevermind :( Still doing it, like I can't even hold down a icon, it acts as though ive pressed it, cuz it has the hold input, then quickly loses it and picks it up again, resulting it the app opening.

Double edit: I use a touchscreen visualizer, its almost as if the touchscreen is resetting every couple of seconds.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] stockwell:
Hi guys, unfortunately I don't have much for you, but here it is.

I previously had reservations about releasing an update with Geno's new kernel because I was worried about people's phone's dying from running at 1.8GHz.. on top of that I tried the kernel out and it seems to perform worse than the old one(1900 in quadrant at 1.8GHz). So with those points in mind, I have decided that I will not be including the new kernel in this update and instead will have it available as an option.

So that leaves the video recording issue. I have replaced the original file (/etc/media_profiles.xml) to return recording in the stock camera app to ~16fps at 720p. I would ask that someone with the time and inclination to please experiment with the values in this file and see if you can make things better. In the original release of this I included the one from the HTC vision CM6.1 build but obviously as people have reported the framerate dropped as a result.

Downloads here:

Update with fixed video cam framerate, 1.5GHz overclock kernel, fixed camera libs and fixed framework-res.apk (all the fixes to date): http://www.multiupload.com/OISOHEHTDP

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] wmi543:
quick fix for video frame drop problem

Here is my quick fix, I edited the "/etc/media_profiles.xml" with root explorer, in the <CamcorderProfiles> section, under <Video code="h264">, change the value of "frameRate" from 24 to 14 or 12, that fix the frame drop for me.

thanks stockwell, it's a good rom, will stick with it for a while.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Recka:
So the First download is if we got the full ROM when you first released and just update our current ROM and the third is the full ROM updated with all that stuff going by fresh install yes?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] stockwell:
Yes that's right.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kourampies:
I installed this rom yesterday. I went directly for the updated version, didn't try out the first one. I ve been getting lots of random freezes, at first I thought they were overclock related, but I can't reproduce them with setcpus stress test. Now I'm running at 1ghz and still getting some freezes. Is that normal? My desire Z with supposedly the same processor can handle 1.5ghz for days with no freezes at all.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] akaloith:
mine reaches 1,5ghz easily

how do i revert to my original rom? tried factory settings using Clockworkmod but couln't revert to my original rom

video framerate is 23fps

Nice rom! the benchmarks are not that nice for the boost in Mhz :(

Antutu: 2337

Quadrant: 1749

Neocore: 44.8 (very similar to non overclocked)!!!

and3benchxl: 24685

Greek Wind Ideos X5
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] aleksander8:
I actually got better score at 1.4 ghz than 1.5 ghz in quadrant, (about 2000 points at 1.4 ghz)

Neocore is actually mostly a gpu test, if you overclock the cpu it doesnt affect the scores that much.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] simplistian:
Quadrant should easily hit 2000+ with 1.4 - 1.5Ghz...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] simplistian:
I believe you need to replace the boot.img in /cust_backup/image with the original one before restoring CWM backups. Or install stock ROM with the dload method in SD card.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] papatsonis:
You need to boot in bootloader mode (VolUP + VolDOWN + power) till you see the purple screen, then connect the ideos to pc, and replace the /image/boot.img with original.(hopefully you have backup... ;) )

As for the benchmarks, quadrant score is quadrant standart i advanced? (standart gives lower scores..) in Quadrant advanced (1.1.1) at 1516 i get aorund 2430-2470 scores
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] oisqi:
I've been using this rom with no issues, until now. Battery drainage seems to have risen and in battery usage, dialer has taken up 70%..

E.typo
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] akaloith:
i have no backup.any greek wind stock roms?

the backup discribed here says does other things.you should change the instructions so as to keep backup of stock rom
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] akaloith:
so i just copy this boot.img and keep it in my pc if i had my original rom?in up down and power button?

quadrant advanced gives 2331

ideos x6 gives 58 at neocore at stock 1ghz. x5 44fps.why? they both have adreno 205
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kourampies:
I dont have a backup of the greek stock rom either , but in case of serious trouble i have a friend with stock rom that i can take the rom/backup from.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] papatsonis:
check here, keep in mind that in backup is not included the drivers for IDEOS (When you factory reset the phone , this partition gets erased), that's why i added them in a separate folder

that has something to do with vsync/refresh rate of the screen, in every simple 3d bench i have run.. i have a cap at 44fps ;) , so either the screen has 44hz refresh rate.. (hardware restriction) along with vcync or somewhere in the drivers there is a max_fps limit at 44
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] wolfgr:
Forget Greek wind rom it was crap anyway get ur self Neos B158 or general stock rom and just wait for cyanogen/miui releases .
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kourampies:
Do they even manufacture screens with non standard refresh rates any more? I thought especially LCDs only were 60hz. I suspect a bad driver:p
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] papatsonis:
in what manner?? cause i still use the stock rom (with some bloatware removed...) added Wifi tethering fix (updates it to B136) along with O/c kernel and works just fine.. in case some major addition.. or a stable 2.3 rom arises , i dont find any particular need (for me..) to upgrade to another build
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] macedonas:
Hope that will be stable version that with no major probs. I'm going to try it.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sport_billy:
Works fine at 1.5GHz.No force close or reboots so far.

I had to do the installation procedure twice,because the first one freezed at boot screen for half an hour.

Quadrand standard gives me around 1800.

@akaloith I have too a full Greek Wind's backup in case you want it.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] macedonas:
How about battery at those levels? Drain?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kourampies:
Not much changes with my 246-1209 configuration with ondemand governor. Probably the same applies for 1.5ghz too.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sport_billy:
I have not measured the battery life so far because i had it connected to pc for much time multiple times today.

I will tell you tomorrow :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] wolfgr:

1)So how do i install this stock wind rom? up down and power press and replace the file?

2)can someone check or correct this driver problem with the max 44fps?

EDIT: neocore now gives 46,4 FPS (@ 1,5Ghz) which is still low compared to Ideos X6 58fps with adreno 205 and 1Ghz cpu

3)in setcpu can you please explain the scaling presets and what to choose?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] papatsonis:
out of curiosity, has anyone noticed the increase in bogomips with this kernel (default rom at 806mhz -> ~536bogomips, custom kernel 806mhz->~860+bogomips, normally i wouldnt asked such a question, but have seen that with custom kernel (high bogomips) the phone is unstable at the undervolted settings i used on custom kernel based on -1st version- of genokolars source(while benchmarks give same scores..)

1) (1st install THIS version of clockwork mod),then make a folder \clockworkmod\backup\ and place there the folder from zip, then power off. press vol up + power to boot on recovery and restore it from appropriate menu option.

2)interesting that it gives you more than 44fps.. that "wipes" the assumption of vsync i suppose :S

3) check here

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] wolfgr:
general and seems to be random freezes with this rom ....just to report :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] stockwell:
To fix the terminal emulator problem you need to delete the file /system/lib/libandroidterminal2.so. I was going to include a terminal emulator in the rom but ended up not doing it and must have forgotten to remove the library.

I would suggest using adb anyway, using the terminal emulator is beyond frustrating.

Edit: that will fix the 'Jack Palevich' terminal emulator (it is better than the original one anyway).

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] simplistian:
Are you using the 'performance' governor? It keeps the clock at max all time.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] akaloith:
what governor do you prefer?

what min speed?
