ok... then I decide to still use my old cm7 until .35 kernel become mature...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Maksimitoisto:
No update for a month.. Will anyone continue genokolars work? There are so small things to fix in this rom, that annoy users. Such as call volume, oversensitive mic and battery life, otherwise it would be perfect.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] jeremysherriff:
It's all kernel issues, not easy to fix without a good official stock rom and full kernel and driver sources.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] R4DK0:
Mirror of the final CM7 .35kernel version you can get it here (it is my webserver, 20Mbps link, no capping, if one is slow, try the other one - independant internet connections)

A lot of users, including me, migrated to ICS from dzo. I felt left outside, when there were no updates from geno, although I loved CM7, my love is currently dzo's ICS.

radio

everything works flawlesly only the fm radio doesn't work as it is stated by the developer.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Doctor Who:
Wow! I've installed this rom together with the fps unlock and it's like a completely different phone. For the record, the fps unlock patch didn't work with the original rooted 2.3.5 rom. If you get the radio to work too that'd be great.

I'm going to donate as soon as I can.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vlc_marcos:
Can you do a quadrant test and an Antigua to see the scores. Put also the speeds that you are using.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Doctor Who:
Will do. Meanwhile, I'm having a really hard time figuring out how to restore Android Market and the other google apps. After I installed CM7 and cleared data & cache, I installed the gapps zip.

Problem is, it's not visible in the applications menu, but appears to be installed in the "Installed Applications" menu. Any ideas?

EDIT: Forget that, I can see the Market link now. Anyway, Quadrant standard with the CPU at 245-1516 and SmartAssV2 gave me 3083 (average after 3 runs, min 2990, max 3204).
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] qwerty12:
I wouldn't call these issues - just annoyances - and they're not big enough to stop you from enjoying genokolar's fine work:

There's no option for "fast boot" in the Applications menu anymore like with the stock ROM (I guess not turning the phone off is an option)

While the internal eMMC is mounted at /HWUserData, applications think it's just a normal folder and don't think an SD card isn't inserted so apps are not using it - "fixed" this one by editing vold.fstab
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Doctor Who:
Let me ask a question. I've seen that other android phones with custom ROMs support full hand gestures (5-point) instead of the default 2.

Does the u8800 pro hardware support gestures using more than 2 points and if so, would it be possible to enable them on a future ROM release?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
If you check touch test apps, does it recognize more than 2 fingers? For U8800, it doesn't, and I'm sure it won't work U8800pro aswell.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Doctor Who:
Well no, it doesn't, but most android phones don't, as far as I know, unless they have customized kernels like here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSAjW3m8n2k&feature=related

Regarding the Radio. I've tried installing Spirit FM, but it hangs on startup. I also tried installing the original FM radio application from the .apk and Titanium Backup and didn't work either. Oh well, I'm far too pleased with this ROM to be able to ignore the radio functionality, but I'd love to see it natively supported as it is in the stock rom.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Copix:
And what about the camera in this ROM? How does it work? Any improvement?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] iliaskone:
how did you do that?" editing vold.fstab"
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] qwerty12:
In /system/etc/vold.fstab you can change where the emmc is mounted. I changed the mountpoint to /mnt/sdcard and rebooted. This means that, however, you should reverse this change back to the original before inserting SD cards as it probably won't play nice... I tried my best to get them to play together by setting the mountpoint to /mnt/emmc (the "standard", it seems), editing vold's settings in build.prop and unpacking boot.img to make symlinks to /emmc from /mnt/emmc all to no avail. Huawei's approach to this was the best - have the eMMC emulated as an SD card - but that can't be done in this ROM :(

Off topic, but does anyone know if you can remove CM's DSPManager? Its bass boost, for one, and stability are really awful compared to Huawei stock libaudio (which also has SRS). The Equalizer app in the Market seems to use DSPManager as well, so that doesn't even sound as good any more... Still, the ROM is far more customizable than Huawei's
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Doctor Who:
I'm sorry, I'm not really using the cameras on mobile phones, so I couldn't tell if there's any difference compared to the stock ROM; still looks like a sucky low quality phone camera.

Phone shuts down instead just turn off screen and lock

I have strange problem with this ROM. I have U8800 Pro. When my phone locks it automatically shuts down!? If I lock it with power button, I can normally unlock it if I'm faster than 2 seconds. After 2 seconds it completely shuts down and I must power it on again.

Does somebody have the same problem?

i flash it with http://goo.gl/DS8u9 but did not work
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] qwerty12:
Woah, that update.zip contains totally incorrect paths for the U8800pro (we don't have a Tegra chip, the last time I looked...). Restore the original vold.fstab from the u8800pro cm7 zip and change the /HWUserData mountpoint for the internal SD card to /mnt/sdcard. You can do this with Root Explorer or Terminal Emulator with the vi editor (nano's easier, but CM's build is broken).

Note that by doing this, you can't mount an external SD card to the same mountpoint (although workarounds exist like doing a bind mount, but that's messy) so unless you need to use the internal card, I wouldn't do this
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] solarspeed:
Tested this ROM yesterday.

Display if blazingly fast! It just can't compare to stock GB, it's perfect! Generally, I liked lots of customization options, but somehow didn't find how to change homescreen options, I mean number of desktops, switching animations..? Anyone knows where to dig?

Sound needs to be fixed, sad to say but it's really bad. It's listenable with Bass Reduce equalizer preset but I'm still worried for my speaker as I hear it's trying to reach very deep bass making music very bad. It must be #1 priority task. The main reason I reverted to stock ROM.

Apps restored with Titanium didn't appear in Market but after clearing data and killing both Market and Google App Framework everything worked fine.

External and internal SD cards were working fine, no issues.

Phone did enter deep sleep mode, that's fine.

Basically, the only really serious issue is sound.

P.S. How to disable SIM Unlock code promt that appears every time after reboot?

"SIM Network Unlock Code" Request

CM7 for u8800Pro is a cool stuff. Except one thing.

i've met the "SIM Network Unlock Code" prompt at every restart of my phone (see the screenshot attached).

It was possible to postpone the prompt, but then the phone restarts automatically.

Previously my phone was never locked with "SIM Network" code.

Any suggestions???
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] matteof93:
i want to try this rom....but i have some questions:

before flashing a custom rom on my O1 i was used to wipe cache, data and dalvik cache. then i was used to format the /system before flashing the rom.

can i do these steps on u8800pro or i have to skip them?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] solarspeed:
No, your algorithm is good. Do as you wrote.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] matteof93:
in fact i have done exactly as i have written.....now after some hours of intensive usage i can say only one thing: THIS ROM IS EXTREMELY FAST AND SMOOTH.

thanks to all people who worked on it.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vlc_marcos:
So what is new in this version?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ArbiterGR:
If what krish_nank said is true and according to that post he linked, it's a cm7 released based on the new EGL drivers that are contained in the official 2.3beta kernel. i'm download it atm.

Try on your own once :) because ur x5 gives always problem with new GB :(
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] julle131:

Have you used 2.3 beta?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ArbiterGR:
Nope, just flashed the new update in the first page. Was using the 28/11 release until now. Will try clearning cache again to see if this solves it, otherwise i'm back to the previous release.

Oh **** u have to upgrade to GB first .... :(
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ArbiterGR:
That would make sense. Anyway i went back to 28-11 release and everything went back to normal. I will wait for genokolar to comment about it :P

I hasitate to install the GB beta yet.

The new version does have the new EGL drivers installed, even poweramp 2.0 works great now ;)

ROM contents

1, using the latest CM7 source compiled, optimized compilation, higher performance

2, the kernel using a self-compiled kernel-specific, not general-purpose cores and MIUI

3, add individuals to enhance the script, and add a few features: enabled by default 80M of Zram, the default unlock the FPS, you can turn off the enhanced.conf

4, all functions were normal, there may be some small bug

5, joined the RE Manager , An intellectual market (do not like to handle), replace the input method for the self-compiled early Google Pinyin

6, personal adds AGPS server (commonly known as the GPS speed), you need Gapps Google service pack to see my signature 7, CM7 official added the T9 smart dialing first released on 23 December:

also written

CM7 to a new EGL library, so the performance is very good, apart from putting the outside was doing anything wrong

i think it does not contain Gapps
