When we suggest titanium, we are referring to the paid version, which restores everything in under 10 minutes (I have mor or less 90 apps). The simple fact that it restores settings of apps and not only apk's is worth every penny...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skyseel:
I prefer AppExtractor. Can restore 5 apps at a time (free version). But that's no issue for me since i have ~10apps installed. It also restores sms / bookmarks / call logs ...

And the best thing is that it restores all that data from a nandroid backup archive! Titanium is rubbish!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Phanatic:
After using few hours 2.04 no bugs in my normal use (mobile data, calls, messaging camera)

This is also much smoother than 2.02 and what's the best, sound quality in call is way better than before.

Also battery life is way better with this release.:D

Thanks dzo!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] cirnocirno:
Thank you so much dzo !!!

With this version my network works faster than before !!!

Now I get better speed than I ever could get, thank you so much !

Do you need to do a triple wipe when you come from aurora 2.02?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] MtG92:
No, you shouldn't have any problems wiping just cache and Dalvik.

I would only recomend a full wipe when you are changing ROMS (eg Aurora to MIUI, MIUI to CM7...).

Yes. "Freshly cut"

hi there, i think i am having a problem, this is what is happening from a few days ago, when i charge my battery, for hours and then in the lockscreen it says charged, but i go go to definitions\battery and it says that is only 73%, and for example i put my battery charging with 45% after a few minutes it appears on the lockscreen 23% charging!

What is happening?

Rom problem or propably hardware problem?

I already done a full wipe!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] iamelton:
i got problem after upgrading from 2.02 to 2.04..

it first appeared to run normal for a while after upgrading, and then my data connection got lost and there was no network signal..

i tried to manually search for networks (in settings > wireless & networks - more > mobile networks > network operators), but 2 out of 3 searches there was no network found..

when a network was found, after i selected it and got signal for a short while, the network connection was lost again..

i tried to reboot and also re-flash 2.04, but the problem persisted..

is this related to 2.04, or a hardware issue?

(probabaly not related to the operator as i have another phone that uses the same operator and it works fine..)

[edit]

after enabling and disabling the option "Use only 2G network" in mobile network settings, my phone can now connect to 3G network without problem now, and persists after reboot..
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] suschmania:
The easiest way is to delete your APN for the internet connection. My provider (Vodafone DE) has 2 different APNs, one for the normal internet connection and another one for receiving/sending an mms. SO I have data enabled all the time...

Maybe your one has it, too? :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] mrasquinho:
Yes, TMN has 2 different. But the problem is not for me, 'cause I have a data plan... The problem is I don't like to have allways data enabled - and it consumes a lot of battery, too...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Schrauff:
... Or deleting other irrelevant posts in this topic, that should be in Q/A or general. I realize, that this topic has become too messed up. People should read forum rules more often, before posting. Maybe they will see that then is easier to search and find any help.

Hey dzo, one fine job u did with. 04!!! 20 hours with wifi on, calls, SMS etc and I'm still at 80% battery!!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] MaRcIuPT:
I have no data plan. I deleted some time ago the internet apn only and I use always data on. it doesn't consume battery until you recieve/send mms.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] mrasquinho:
Another problem. With the new wifi driver I can connect only one time. After that I have to change to old driver again or reboot the phone.

I know its unstable, and I'm only reporting :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fallen_monk:
I've said this once and I'll say it again lol

Oh by the way, everyone that like me that had problems with sending and receiving mms with data off, because of not being able to only disable the internet apn (due 4.0 security policies)

There is a solution similar to the 2.x systems but with a little tweak.

1- Download and install your favorite apn apk (for me apn portugal)

2- Next go to to titanium backup and long press the apn apk.

3-Select convert to system aplication.

4-Go to the apn apk and disable internet

5-???

6-Profit!!!

The tweak is you have to have the apn apk installed in your system.

So you can install it directly as system apk by aptoide for instance, or convert it after to system by titanium backup.

I hope everyone can now solve their mms problems
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] M1ST4K3:
But he has a data plan... that would kill the access to internet... I don't really mms anyway... But I know what he means. What I do is put the data toggle in the notification bar and turn it on every once in a while. Not the best solution, but it's pretty usable...

dzo, huge battery improvement in the last build. I use the new driver and the phone had not reset once! Great job mate.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] mrasquinho:
I've said this once and I'll say it again too lol

I don't want to use a apn manager, but I know how to use it...

Oh well, I'm enabling data everytime I need it, that's ok
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dzo:
What do you mean, even switching wifi off and on again doesn't let you connect?

What type of network is it? The new driver only takes effect after you switch wifi off and then on again, perhaps you have a WEP network and were only really connecting with the old driver.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] MtG92:
Did you do a full wipe before flashing? Any adicional tweaks? I mean my battery life is good but what you're describing is amazing!

Hey, just a quick question:

The strings already there are in the format:

<string name="power_widget_title">"Power widget"</string>

whereas your new strings have the quotation marks around the displayed string omitted, i.e.

<string name="power_widget_title">Power widget</string>

Which is correct?

Thanks!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] mrasquinho:
Wpa2.

Yes, i changed the driver with wlan off. Its kind of random, but sometimes it won't enable again.

And sometimes (it happened a couple of times), when I'm enabling wlan with the new driver, if I try to open some app the launcher freezes and I have to turn of the phone and on again - not reboot.

But it gave an huge battery improvement.

About the notification drawer - the 3g/2g switch doesn't work yet.

Good job! Regrds

Edit: I forgot to say that when this 'bug's happens, the wlan switch gets stuck, and I'm not able to switch it off again.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ksaplostra:

Battery drain with BT

Hello dzo,

respect your rom is great I like it. It will be better from Version to version.

But one little problem I have with it: When I use BT in the car with radio connection kit BT drain the battery very fast.

Have you any idea to solve this, because I use BT in the car every day for some hours an everytime after using the battery is low. In 1 hour I lose around 20-25%.

Yes, I do a full wipe. I make the installation everytime on a new B526 installation.

Greetings

EDIT: I did a factory reset, complete wipe and format system again and install all new and the new test shows everything ok. No Problem with BT and drain battery.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kapa_pt:
well, this version is fantastic DZO, the battery lasts much longer (2 days with a intensive use), and the new wi-fi drive works beautifully.

I only have two bugs to report, the softkey's lighting works only if the brightness of the screen is on automatic and transfers by BT do not allow me to receive APK's.

Good news: I've got the camera working (no video recording yet) and I think I've figured out why sdcards were having problems. It was a silly typo in the kernel.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] greddyrx7:
Thankssssss
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dzo:
1.3 is up now.

Camera support is quite preliminary but it seems to work OK.

I don't know if it will work with all sensor types, my u8800 has a s5k4e1gx_p and that works fine.

The camera lib is all native (not a wrapper for the gb libcamera like a lot of ports)

so it shouldn't be too hard to get video working.

The camera has taken a LOT of work so you guys had better appreciate it!!

p.s. there are lots of strange options in the camera menu, if you mess with these there's a chance you could get the camera into a state where it won't start without wiping data.

Well, 1.3 is pretty incredible. :D

One small issue though, it looks like it's using MDPI resources since 1.2...? Look at the signal icons and app drawer button, for example - everything looks upscaled and fuzzy. The Chrome screenshot was from 1.1, the XDA one from just a few minutes ago.

But it's just cosmetic, everything else is perfect :D

Yeah me too. I managed to installl it after wiping the data of the google play app+wipe cache+wipe dalvik cache after some tries...

You can install the ICS V6 supercharger by running the script with terminal emulator and then patch the services.jar. There are more than enough information at the V6 Supercharger thread. But I tried it, and don't expect any boost...

Please all, don't hit this thread anymore with irrelevant posts. It may be the only ICS thread but 95% of all the questions are available with a google search. Just post the problems or possible fixes and read before posting the same problem... there is the issues page at google code too.

Thx. Now it work, but one think I don't understand is wy when we use it without configure it we lose the vibrate after turn the sound on again, maybe the better way is to make the notification without the sound option by default, and then if we want to use it we should have to configured it by ourselves.
