hmmmm.

After I have read this great news (how to fix non working apps) I decided to go again to ICS. I have installed the ROM ...SP3+ Root from post #979 and I thought it is already rooted. Then In gave root rights to Hd exporer and ES File.Explorer also checked the options to "mount / as writable dir" but.... filename changing/updating/Deleting/permissions are stil not possible...

Can anybody tell me what's wrong and how to proceed?

When I Start both explorers I get notification.that superuser provided rights, but apparently something is still wrong. Maybe I should Root my tab manually again? How? Is there any special root package for ICS?

FYI. I have also tried terminal emulator with superuser rights. After executing su - the whoami gives "...user0" so it looks like root, but filename changing attempt ends with message "filesystem not writable". Any hint?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] v35lee:
I had the same problem, but used Rom Toolbox (free version) as noted in a recent post by rurou and was able to delete the files. Not sure why we are having issues with ES File Explorer.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] andoyanna:
I used Es File Explorer without any issue. Try updating su binaries using superuser app!
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] mangoman:
I think root explorer is still the one you should use when changing files etc. It just works.

Did u install busybox first??

Did u install busybox first??
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] eses1234:
What do you mean by installing busybox. I thought the version ...SP3+root was supposed to be already rooted. What else should we do? Should I install busybox additionally? How to check busybox manually?

The things I have validated:

1. There is superuser app installed in a system and says it grants superuser rights to file explorers when they are started (at least is says so) .

2. The /mnt/sdcard/sanixupdate dir contains busybox (size 752,32K)

3. RootCheckerBasic says the device is rooted.

I have checked and sanixupdate attached to previous ICS ROM contained another busybox (size 808,75K - bigger one). Can anybody validate which one is correct? Can I just reinstall Superuser (free), or maybe busybox (free) from Playstore? Will it work with ...SP3 ROM?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] lukemeedad:
ES explorer doesn't work for me. Root explorer is the one you must use.

:)
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] tinpak5536:
yes if didn't have busybox,SU file will not work correctly.U can download it at Playstore for free.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] eses1234:
I have just:

1. installed busybox (free) from Playstore, (/system/xbin/busybox is now dated today 17.04.2012 - brand new)

2. Installed SuUpdateFixer (free) from Playstore. It says the superuser.apk signature is OK,

3. Updated Superuser.apk (was ver. 3.0.3 /system/xbin/su installed on 10.04.2012, now 3.0.3.2 /system/xbin/su dated 17.04.2012 - brand new)

4. rebooted tab

and... still no success. Cannot modify single system file - I have also tried to modify one system text file (build.properties) with NO SUCCESS. Looks like system folders cannot be mounted to writable. Can I mount it somehow manually?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] rurou:
Download remount in play store (or better yet, download "mount /system " in play store) , choose the /cust folder as rw, click on the title.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Leion:
Remount app with es file manager, renamed the jnlgraphics file. Ezpdf worked again! Thanks!:)
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] a2x2:
linux way.

Install Android Terminal Emulator

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm

and type in terminal

su
mount -o remount,rw /cust

then use your favorite file manager

or wait official ROM... libjnigraphics.so will fixed.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] henel321:

[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Xanderful:
IM still on 06 is the latest version worth the update or should I wait for the official update?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] eses1234:
Remounting worked indeed! Problem fixed. Thanks rurou a lot.

Summarizing, my "root problem" was in reality "writable mount problem" (as I finally suspected). Remount app is very helpful for users with limited linux experience. I hope this info will help another users who had problems with root access.

is it posssible to save/move apps to the external sd-card in ICS 4.0, or is the sd-card just for "media" like it is in HoneyComb
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] tinpak5536:
It's already have this function in ICS 4.03 or u can use script to move to SDCard like 3.2
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Xantios1978:
Thanks, but this one is only the chinese version.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] v35lee:
Very interesting - So, anyone have an idea from past history which would suggest how long (after Chinese version is released) it will be until the International version is released?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] mangoman:
Seems to be a battery problem with the sp3, or my battery is going.

Today it was at 95%, after 30 minute commute with browsing on 3g its at 53%.

Seems too much to be normal, brightness at 15%.

So at this level it will barely last 1 hour.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] henel321:
It's getting near... A Russian manual has been posted on the international site.

[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] henel321:
Cool, they must be uploading as we speak as it wasn't available when I checked. :)

(Well, it kind of still isn't as it says "unavailable" when I tried to download it..)
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] ime95mos:
Do they always release the manual before releasing the software? Does that make sense?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] alex_swe:
In this new english manual for ICS, there is a file attached "HUAWEI Fix Terminal Press Standard.joboptions" (at the bottom of the table of contents). Do you guys have any idea what is it?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Xanderful:
Sweet I guess I will wait was going to upgrade tonight. But will put it off til the international version drops
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] PabloXIII:
Does anybody have issue with auto rotate function on stock honeycomb?

With auto rotate enabled cpu is always running on 950-1100 MHz when the screen is on, no matter what you do. If you disable auto rotate cpu goes to 200 - 400 MHz.

Battery life goes up by hour or so of usage, just by disabling auto orientation.

If you know of a good fix, please do tell.

Cheers!

I have to make *** = .com . Because this website don't want a spam.

The same !. When you finish updating then you have to push "Sanixupdate" folder to main storage of mediapad. And then you have to reboot your mediapad. Finish. Have a nice day.:)

has anyone had this on long enough to make any comments on battery life
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] zelduy:
Already downloaded.. But haven't got the chance to try it on..

How's the final release so far guys??
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] PabloXIII:
I updated last night, so here are impressions after one full battery cycle.

Upgrade took about 10 or so minutes.

With auto rotate off and hi-res on, battery lasted about 5 hours of "screen on" time (ebooks, youtube, comics and play store). So, it's about the same as HC.

UI is much faster than HC. No bugs so far, except for Dead Space which runs in portrait mode.

Be warned: you'll have to reinstall all the apps. Messaging data will also be lost.

HiSuite is not included in this rom, so if you are using it you'll have to get daemon from "huaweidevice.com/resource/mini/201105239635/hi_suite_en/"

Some other apps included with HC are missing as well, but now we have dialer included.

In order not to end up with a lot of unaccounted for memory space, before upgrading either uninstall your apps, or make a list of what you have and install them again afterwards.

Go for it!!!

[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Corn Flake:
I just found in settings standard and high resolution option. What's the different between them? I mean which of these resolution is 1280x800 and what's the second one?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] PabloXIII:
The resolution is always the same, but when you use hi-res mode everything shrinks to a bit more than half the size. Someone said in another topic "like 10" tablet scaled to 7"". I don't find the items to be difficult to hit with my fingers when in hi res mode, so I keep it switched on.

If you have large hands, you might want to stick with standard def.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] cmstlist:
So in other words, "low resolution mode" means that the OS treats it as having the DPI density that it really has; and "high resolution" means falsely setting a lower DPI so the OS acts as if the same number of pixels pixels are stretched out on on a larger screen.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] rurou:
Yes
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] zelduy:
Ahh.. Ic...

I always thought when in standard mode it was 1024x600 and in high res it was 1280x800... :p
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Klacik:
nope.. it's just a matter of changing DPI, so everything looks smaller in the High res mode..

btw. HDMI is still bugged, and the "shakiness" of the touchscreen is still present :\
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] zelduy:
And the edge to 3g/H stuck problem is still exist too :(
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Leion:
so far so good. Only dislike friendcaster not allowing tablet mode when using standard resolution..
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] tinpak5536:
screen still shaking,when long press.Like the last one.But touch screen improve
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] ChanBeiBei:
absolutely agree with you. it's less shaky than last official version but still causing inconvenience when you wanna press a link but has been registered as a wipe.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] mangoman:
Yup,- HDMI is still the same.

The tv says 1080p 60Hz, but the video output is still blocky\pixelated. Used the same 1080p mkv file and compared the mediapad\laptop.

Still the Edge to 3g\h problem.

With wcdma preferred its stays on edge full bars (0.2 down, 0.15 up). Changed to wcdma only i get H full bars with 7.3 down and 0.9 up.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] rurou:
If you play a video that can be decoded by hardware, it should automatically play the video full screen at full res on the tv (no android nav/info baru at the bottom). If you use an app that only have portrait orientation, although it will be displayed with big black border, the output itself is high res with full color depth (currently, landscape apps will be displayed at low resolution and low color depth=dithering and scaled to 1080p).

If anyone have experience with HC HDMI out, I want to ask what is the HDMI output resolution? If it is 1080p, then the next question is whether apps run smoothly while using HDMI out (especially for games)?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] zelduy:
Maybe that's why huawei release 2 versions of update one in hc and the other in ics... Maybe they couldn't fix the problem... :p
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Leion:
I wonder if this will be the last update :P
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] tinpak5536:
I don't think so.Screen still shaking when long press at middle of touch screen:(

Skype video issue!!!

Hi all,

did you check Skype on ICS? The video sent by Mediapad is pink with green lines. According to skype support forum, the problem is on the side of Qualcomm:

community.skype.com/t5/Android/Video-Issues-on-Android-4-0-ICS/td-p/639141

In the meantime, Qualcomm has released a solution, now it is up to the device makers (HTC, Huawei) to implement the patch in their firmware....

Overall, my (my wife's :-)) experience with ICS is negative. The overall performance (CPU) is probably better, the flash support in the browser is also better. Phone application is definitely a plus.

But the responsiveness of the touch screen worsened (sometimes I need to tap twice...), individual apps have minor bugs when running in Mediapad ICS (volume rocker does not work properly in MX Video player, Dolphine Browser crashes - these things will be probably solved soon through applications updates). The skype video issue is really a problem for me. I did not check HDMI yet...

I am going back to Honeycomb until Huawei releases new ICS with the Qualcomm patch included. I have been counting days for this ICS to be released. Now when it is out, I must say that the release was premature....

Leion: thank you very much for your rooted firmware!!! Your method (adding su to the original file) really works!

Could you (or anyone else) root and upload the latest Honeycomb (HUAWEI_S7-301u_FIRMWARE_android3.2_C284B011_General_Channel_05010XEW )?? I do not have access to Linux to do it by myself.

Thanks a lot

Network question

i had planned to install the ICS4 "S7-301u V100R002C232B002", but when i unzipped it there was a textfile that read: "this software S7-301u V100R002C232B002 has been tested strictly in Zealand,Singapore,Bengal,and Australia,but network situation is different and complicated in different places.so we can not guarantee that this version is applicable in all countries or regions."

Run Quadrant with "Force 2D GPU acceleration" checked comparing with unchecked to find out that latest C232B002 already have this feature.

You can also find most of libs/firmware files with the same names in this ROM.

Other posts say that suggested drivers are nothing else then 2 month old Qualcom release.

OpenGL version (213) lower then our current 218 - seems to be outdated.
