Yes i restarted a lot of times. Now i am looking in camera menu , all i can see is 5 icons as you know, original 5 settings, zoom flash whitebalance storelocation and focus mode. I cant see hdr mode:confused:

Maybe it is because i wrote that line myself, i added because i couldnot find that line to change.

The HDR option is available when you press the hardware menu button on the device.

Its an addition to the usual "Switch to video" and "Gallery" options on the menu.

hi I saw in the first post this "Enable sending MMS Messages over WiFi (if Data Disabled)" and I wonder if

it is possible to send MMS with data off (It spends only the MMS data with no extra data that costs money) I tried with apn from my country and dont work. =(

edit: OMG that option worked to send MMS even with wifi off. thanks!!!!

btw superoneclick 2.3.3 worked in official b526

Already did.Now my phone f****d up, folder preferences like this :

I can't flash update, it fails around step 2/2.My phone is open now and i need to free up a little space for amss.mbn file :( What is using 220mb :mad:

And regards to huawei, who blocked bootloader mode with latest update :cool:
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
I would advise you to use my guide to unlock the bootloader, then start in pink screen and format the cust partition, after that reinsert the files. It seems like its corrupted, as it should have about ~100mb free.

Guide is in the development section, and incase you need original files they are in my mediafire.

Btw, i don't have amss.mbn, because there isn't enough space for it, but i have recovery.img v5.0.2.7, is it ok? Can i go to recovery?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
One user reported the zip worked fine on 5.0.2.7, so I believe you can try that. If it doesn't work for some reason, try the manual method, when you have Android booted.

I then rebooted phone to see what will happen and cust.img magically appered but recovery was gone :mad: and only ~500KB left so I couldnt paste new one :( I then fixed it by deleting some apks in cust_data so I the had just enough space for recovery and it was workig until I bricked it :D

Add them to the end of the file. If your rom/kernel doesn't support them, it will ignore them.

You need to enable the log, can't remember the steps but they are in the first post of this thread.

Once done, reboot and retry with superoneclick. you need v2.3.3.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Fruitgull:
I can't seem to root my phone 2.3.5 phone (2.2.2 works).

I've think the problem is that the log switch enable doesn't stick after reboot (and don't work even if I don't reboot.

During rooting I get "Unable to open log device: dev/log/main". I get this error when I reboot after enabling log switching (according to the guide) and also if I try to run the root app with no reboot directly after enabling log switch.

The root app hangs at step 7.

I've enabled both usb debugging and unknown sources.

I've tried on two computers and also tried it manually (Doomlord's).
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] jeremysherriff:
Can you just confirm what version of superoneclick you are trying with?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Fruitgull:
2.3.30.

I got it to work! But after many attempts. It seemed that superoneclick spawned two adb processes for me (Yes confimed SOC always starts two adb processes for me. Even if I don't have the phone plugged into the computer) But one of them was not killed when existing the program. Is this normal? I killed all the adb processes in task manager and tried again. I think that the dual processes was the cause, but I'm not 100% sure.

Perhaps the former hanging adb process locked /dev/log/main and therefore I got the above mentioned error?

But also the log switch setting never sticks after reboot for me.

You have made an amazing guide here! I used them for rooting my device and for installing CWM. Everything worked like a charm.

could you tell me where exactly is the build.prop ??

You could also add it to the front page...

And one more question.

i want to remove Documents to go, so i tried with remount to mount /cust as rw and it fails... :S

what should i do?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:

You should use root explorer, it enables rw in rooted ROMs just fine ... or es file explorer

For TuMatos

1. Download official rom from here http://www.huaweidevice.com/worldwi...d=toDownloadFile&flay=software&softid=NDE5NDQ=

2. Extract the zip file and put the DLOAD folder to the external sd card.

3. Go settings, Locations & security settings

4. Choose Install from SD card

Your phone now is like new.

P.S.

To install custom rom you will need root and clockworkmod.

I've been playing with it also with simple routine stuff like this. As soon as I get more tags i'm going to make some for checkins at my favorite hangouts... etc. But to date the most useful tasks I use NFC are checking the balance on my Clipper Card and Door entry access.

I've been trying the ports of CM7 but as soon as I've checked it out I bounce back to a backup because it won't work under CM7 and I need that door entry access.

The monolithic platform will work in it's favor unlike Android phones that have NFC built in and functional but crippled because the platform is fragmented by the carriers.
