How about the u8800-51?

R&D said there is going to be an improved U8800+ 2.3 ROM released next Wednesday. (The current U8800+ 2.3 rom) has not been tested thoroughly, totally in a rush. We should learn from this.

===================================

There seems a lot of issues with the current U8800+ 2.3 stock rom? Hope this is not gonna happen on U8800...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Odinforce:
I can say that so far 0 issues with my pro 2.3.5
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] solarspeed:
I thought I was just unlucky one. This ROM sucks a million times. After reboot icons in the menu are not in the same order I put them before. It freezes randomly. Extremely annoying freezes in Agry Birds. H.A.W.X. game doesn't run smootly. I only noticed this so far. Hope that new ROM will be much better.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] NForce25:
It's not that bad for me. No freezes or reboots, faster menu navigation and stuff, only games are a bit slower than on 2.2. And a lot slower than on CM7 of course
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] edarr:
two months are gone and nothing. it is a shame for huawei
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
Yes but the last answer is in the end of nov. I think they'll deliver it then
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Odinforce:
They are working on it, i confirmed with a contact in R&D.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Ozgurce:
Whats changing then? Will there be any fix for wifi or sound quality? Or any other?

- U8800
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] edarr:
this phone has dolby mobile and sound sucks :confused:

if they can improve hifi and sound quality, it will be a great value. and maybe battery can be improve

when I had franco's kernel, my battery had lasts at least 2 days
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Odinforce:
They will try to make "everything they can" to optimize it, but as we all know the issues comes from the chip also.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] priestx:
From smilentfish's post: (thanks for the effort in translating and informing us)

I guess that our (U8800) update has a big chance of being buggy, if and when delivered of course, I base my opinion on the fact (as stated by Huawei) that the qualcomm chip is buggy so they probably knew for a while that it will cause them problems, either on the functionality of the device or in the development of the updated firmware.

On my side, as a client, I wasn't informed about those problems before buying the phone and don't care about them... BUT I was promised an update from my carrier and from the company and I expect that... before 2012 :D

and the kernel source of course...

is there any chances that u8800 will get official android 4.0 update.

update: oops~duplicate post..sorry solarspeed, I did not see your post when I posted this...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] solarspeed:
No problem :) In the 1st version of this ROM there were 2 folders inside archive (step1, step2), but here I sees "step3" also. Doesn that mean anything for non-chinese users, or the process of update is just the same (put step1 files in dload folder)?

EDIT: I guess the process of update is gonna be different this time. step1 folder only has one tiny file. Enlighten us please :)

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] mmm200:
hi, can someone help.

I've tried to install update 2.3.5 for u8800pro (second one with bug fixes) to my u8800pro, but i did something wrong. Now the phone didn't work.

1. I've copied step1 file to SDcard. that's it.

I,ve got to menu-stetings-sdcard-upgrade from sdcard.

upgrade started, then phone rebooted, but touchscreen is not reacting, also senso buttons. also it says that there is no sim card but it is in the phone.

I have no image of old system.

I think that what i did wrong that I copied only Step 1 file in Dload folder of SDcard (in upgrade there were also Step 2 and Step 3 files, but i didnt put them in SDcard Dload folder)

2. Then i've downloaded original Stock rom for u8800pro. Via computer i deleted from SDcard dload folder and then created new dload folder and copied stock rom (2 files).

Took off batery for 5 min., then pushed vol +, vol- and pwr buttones.

Got screen android system recovery (3e) with 4 options.

but i canot do anything from that point. I can't choose from theese options (buttons are not working), vol- or vol+, or pwr button not reacting.

maybe someone knows how to recover my phone to original stock or make something else to work phone?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] akalos:
from 511 to 512

mistake, you need to put update.app from step 2 only to dload folder

and then delete update.app from step 2 and put update.app from step 3.

step one is for 2.2.2 to 2.3.5
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] mmm200:
no i was makeing update from 2.2.2 to 2.3.5
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] bronxitas:
mmm200> you have soft brick. i think you didn't read the manual which is in archive with new rom. now you shud update it via vol- and power buttons. dload folder mus contain 2 files and thats it. next time read manual carefuly.

Yu said he wouldn't update his weibo until next year because of some non-sense replies to his weibo posts.

I can't find the link at the moment, but I remember one of the mediators in Huawei official forum said 2.3 ROM for U8800 will probably be released on 26 Nov, within a small range (I don't know what he means by "a small range").
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] boss_y:
It means that it wouldn't be available for normal download on their web page. It will probably still be beta version. Most of MNO's already has beta version of U8800 2.3 rom...

We will get the rom diffrent way ;)

Edit: This is only useful for rom developers. If you are a normal U8800pro user, please ignore this.

Edit2: This kernel doesn't contain gravity sensor driver (and maybe even some other sensors) because of intellectual property issue.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dolfius:
No 2.3 for u8800h yet? will this kernel work on the u8800h?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] priestx:
This is the kernel source... you can download it, build it and then you'll probably have the same kernel binary (more or less) with the one shipped with the official ROM (which is the one you should install)

read the manual again :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] frcasek:
Ok, thanks. On my Galaxy S is allways so simple to flash new rom (and we have every day new rom:-), with u8800 pri I'm lost!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] priestx:
whatever your smartphone may be, the kernel is not the (Full) operating system your smartphone needs in order to function.

Also source code is not the "program" in machine language and the hardware can't run it in any way.

Installation of ROMs is pretty simple with CWM...

There are also various unofficial roms every day if you want to test/play with but since we expect 2.3.x (with an updated kernel) there is no reason IMO to stress the devs :)

no market, only Froyo 2.2.2 but rooted and cwm :confused:

tried "oxygen2.3.2-u8800" but failed (Error in /sdcard/oxygen2.3.2-u8800.zip)

so, no working 2.3 rom for this (+) device?

(although it´s claimed by the shops to have 2.3)

best would be to stick with froyo and wait for the official update?

ok , I googletranslate the pdf and maybe think to get it?

update 1 from 2.2 to 2.3

update 2 from 2.3.x to 2.3.y (?)

update 3 downgrade to 2.2

and proceed over the phone-menue (update from sd) with update in "dload"?

I am using (reverted to) stock ROM (Wind-Greece 2.2.1)

I'd like to update to the new 2.3.5. I've read the steps multiple times and I understand them (if I mess something up you'll know...)

In the instructions it says

3.1 Guideline for Upgrade from Android 2.2.2 to Android 2.3.5

I have 2.2.1, is it such a big deal to be in 2.2.2 since some people upgraded from custom ROMS without problems? Should I be worried or anything? If yes, where can I find the 2.2.2 ROM?

Also is step 3 needed? what are the changes step 3 includes? This question could be answered but the forum is on fire since the update and I can't keep up :)

Just want to know how its the sound quality on Samsung focus while playing audio and video?

Does it have audio effects or equalizers?

And what is a zune pass? Is it relevant for people in India?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ren13B:
If you are talking about the speaker on the phone the audio is about standard for a smartphone. It's fine for basic audio like podcasts but music isn't going to sound very good on it. I don't think there are any available sound effects or equalizers. I think HTC has that.

Zune Pass is a music subscription service that gives you access to almost the entire Zune library. You can keep 10 songs per month and streaming is unlimited. I don't know if it's available in india.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ren13B:
Mango alone won't. OEM's have to add it.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lekhwani:
I ordered an AT&T unlocked focus on 16th September in India. Have yet to receive it. While doing purchase, I was impressed by 4'' super amoled screen, One GHz processor, 720p camera recording

and the lure of coming mango update. With such good hardware and upcoming holy grail of windows phone 7 i.e. mango, I took it for granted that audio equalizers and some audio effects would be there as windows media player has these features.

On my current optimus one Android 2.3 phone, I enjoy the audio equalizers and effects immensely. Specially I like the ability of bass boost and the thump it gives. It helps me in completing my one hour body exercise at home.

I think I will just have to keep my fingers crossed. May be mango will have this ability natively or the code to support it so that any developer develops an application for it.

Let's wait and watch!

Here's the reply an Acer representative posted on Acer ANZ Facebook page:

"the A501 update has two more security patch integrated hence the slight delay on the update. The date is very likely to be tomorrow, that the first batch of users are going to receive FOTA update notification. Australia & New Zealand are amongst the first countries with the updates made available. Appreciate your understanding and hopefully the update will be with you shortly.".

This was posted around 3.30 PM of the 09/19 (UTC).
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
Just remember...

DON'T RUSH TO APPLY IT OR YOU'LL LOSE ROOT!

Wait for the devs to modify the OTA and take out the new bootloader and recovery...

This is like the millionth time I've read that 3.2 is unrootable... LoL Repetita iuvant

So, in your opinion, is everyone that flashed the 3.2 an idiot or just those that are now crying about it?
[Acer Iconia A500] spaz2k7:
Very good question. I updated fully knowing I would loose root, however I have full confidence that the devs will work it out.
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
The ones that are crying about it, obviously.
[Acer Iconia A500] ve6rah:
After searching on this forum and others, I updated to 3.2, at the time I could not find anything stating that you couldn't root it, but also nothing saying you could. I did however see a few posts from people doing previous upgrades saying that they managed to maintain root. At the time I realized there was a risk I wouldn't be able to root it, but it seemed likely I would. I also figured that if I couldn't root it, at least I could always flash back to 3.1 and root that.

Unfortunately I was wrong on both counts. Since that time I, and others, have made sure that anyone who asks is very aware of the risks so that others don't make the same mistake that I did.

I'm not really complaining though, I do have full confidence that 3.2 will be rooted in time, and while I enjoy having a rooted tablet, and use many applications that require it, not having root is not a deal breaker for me. and I still enjoy the tablet (though I must say the ads are drivng me nuts!)

I guess this is what I get for being an early adopter.

Looks like that was true. Downloading now on my A501...
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
I'm calling it "Acer Payback" for originally giving us the most easy to root device I've ever seen :p

Besides, anybody who roots and installs a custom recovery should know...Never take an OTA factory update, or at least be cautious about doing it.

One poster on another forum, was advised by Acer Support to do a factory reset to roll back to factory :eek:

I'm no rocket scientist, but doesn't that involve using that pinhole by the rocker?

Anybody try this yet? Results?
[Acer Iconia A500] chiasottis:
Not sure about what your question means... Update wouldn't install ("update not valid" error), so I did a Factory Reset: Settings -> Privacy -> Factory Reset (backup your internal SD as it'll be formatted). After that the update completed fine.

First impressions: snappier; some stuff (like keyboard) looks crispier on screen; more stable networks; new movie editor; etc.

Definitely a huge improvemente over 3.0.1.
