[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] socioan:
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.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] SharkbotJR:
i'm just wondering, i did a search of the forums and didn't find anything but sorry if this has been posted or asked and answered, when i am restoring a nandroid back up do i have to flash the kernel through fastboot before restoring or does nandroid restore that as well?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] strose09:
I believe you'd need to flash the kernel as well that was for that nandroid back up.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] :
Yes, depending on the rom you will need to flash the kernel before you flash the rom or else you will get a boot loop.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] SharkbotJR:
Thank you very much. both of you.

I got my EVO yesterday and came with 2.2 and i rooted thru Unrevoked 3.2... (simplest root ive done)

I just want to know if there would be any problem flashing roms or anything. I got the latest clockwork recovery installed.

Thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Notorious:
Should have no problems as long as your s-off. Also I do recommend getting rid of clockworkmod recovery and getting amon ra(supersonic ra). Clockworkmod is know to cause problems and some roms are not compatible with it

Genokolar had released moments ago a new .35 based kernel for MIUI/CM7 which fixes the scratchy sound when listening to music.

I've been testing it:

- Incall sound is brilliant

- Speaker sound is brilliant

- Music sound trough speaker is brilliant!

Official thread: http://bbs.anzhi.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=4942811

Mirrors:

CM7 - http://www.mediafire.com/?wsaq9u7ai56lmvl

MIUI - http://www.mediafire.com/?yhqg1h2r22wk44l

Remember: it's only for .35 based MIUI/CM7!

Use it at your own risk!

Instructions

:

1 - Flash it on recovery (i'm using 5.5.0.4)

2 - Profit!

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Bruno Soares:
I dont have that problem, dont have atmel. :-)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] MtG92:
By the way, how do you know if you have an atmel screen? I had the .35 kernel for a few days but I don't think I had any trouble with the touch screen...I was using Aurora ICS by dzo but the .35's horrible sound quality made me switch back to .32 kernel...

How would you guys describe the sound quality (with geno's kernel) as compared to Elite 9.7 or MIUI (.32)? Because the sound quality with Elite 9.7 is absolutely amazing!...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:
Every .32 ROMs have astounding sound quality and very high volume in every situation... elite, MIUI, cm7, etc have very little difference, if any, between them...

Sent from my U8800
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] MtG92:
Thanks, I see...but I was asking if is there a big difference between the sound quality on this modified .35 kernel and the .32 kernel? I understand that .32 quality is better but if the sound quality on this kernel isn't all that much worse I might go back to Aurora...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Bruno Soares:
Sorry my bad writing ...

I do not remember where, but there is an app that could see the type of screen you have the phone ... research that will certainly find.

As for the sound quality with .32 kernel I believe it is better, but the .35 kernel will be the future and will certainly correct to point to match the sound quality of the .32 kernel

Anyway, install a MUI with this .35 kernel and do the comparison yourself sound ...

Granted this kernel has nothing to do with the ROM ICS.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:
I don't think it's much the quality of the sound itself,because I find it the same between .32 and .35 ROMs, it's more about the volume... in 32 kernel, it's so loud I have to reduce volume on some songs, while in 35, volume is always very low, even on maximum, when using headphones while playing music...

Sent from my U8800
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Bruno Soares:
I think so.

It may be that it is better with the .35 kernel development

Aloud is already better, no longer makes strange noises, lol

Phones in use depends on ... I use before I slept lying down, and there is not need much volume, which is enough ... for me, of course. : D

As my title says I'm new to the forums, I really really really need some help on rooting my tmobile g2 with gingerbread 2.3.4. I have tried downgrading it to the stock rom but I always get stuck at the prompt commands, can anybody help me step by step on downgrading my phone and rooting it? It would be a BIG HELP I will pay anybody interested on helping that's a promise thanks!!!
[G2 and Desire Z General] biohazrd51:
What do you mean you get stuck? Are you receiving errors? If so do you have screenshots? Not understanding it? Have you popped in irc to see if anyone can help?

Edit: Where are my manners, welcome to the world of G2!
[G2 and Desire Z General] crestofawave:
Well, hello there!

You should hop on #g2root on freenode IRC. I'm sure there'll be folks there who'll be more than happy to help you with the rooting process.

With that said. To root the phone you first need to downgrade it to exploitable firmware. The downgrade guide I used was this one by Setherio:

[GUIDE] Downgrade G2 (2.3.X) & DZ (2.3.X) & mT4g (2.3.4) & DHD w/ S-ON to Stock Froyo

All credit for this goes to Setherio, make sure you thank him!

From there, you can root, S-OFF, turn off the SIMLock and get SUPERCID using the wiki method, which you can find here:

Wiki Rooting Guide

Once you have rooted the phone, you can install a recovery. If you use the Wiki method, you'll get CWM3, which is pretty old. I suggest you install the 4EXT recovery. It has a LOT of bugs fixed over from CWM and is touchscreen based!

Site: 4EXT Website - All credit goes to madmaxx82 for his awesome work!

Finally, good starter ROM's (if you want to flash a new ROM that is) would be tsubus' ILWT or MIUI. You can use the ROM Compilation thread as a ROM reference. The thread can be found here:

[COMPILATION][07-03-2012] ROM Thread Index for the (HTC) Vision

All credit goes to Chrusb for his work! Make sure to thank him!

With all that said, welcome to the G2/DZ Fora, and good luck with rooting!
[G2 and Desire Z General] wickedsider:
yes I get prompt errors and no I dont have screenshots but this is what I've done so far:

I've downloaded the fre3vo file and copied it to my platform tools folder, then I ran command prompt and this is what I type

adb push fre3vo /data/local/tmp

adb shell

$ chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/fre3vo

After the third command I get an error saying permission denied, what am I doing wrong?

I've also tried different methods and thanks for the links but I can't seem to root my phone, last time I rooted a phone was like 2-3 years ago with my tmobile g1. Can someone guide me through the steps or let me know what I'm doing wrong?

If that method is not working try another. I tried several before I had any luck getting root to phone. I had to downgrade first and I think I used gfree method. I'm not good at this stuff, but if you read up and study the info you can get it done.

I like g2hacks.com. check it out.

I believe the last method for 4g works to get data enabled, but not at 4g speeds ( or at least their h+ speeds)

There's a method to update/replace the flex provider.HTML, I'm still not 100% clear on how to change that so i stuck to the method you laid out and have had no problems.

Besides, i keep my antenna on 2g mode only to save battery life, I'm on wifi at home and at work so i hardly have a need for their faux g.
[LG Thrill 4G] kfdenden:
Thank you! I had tried the modify flex.xml post and was met with force close errors. I experienced fauxG when I enabled flex as well. I know that it is different for everyone, so take this with a grain of salt, but my speeds were back to where they were out of the box when I followed this method. For me, that meant my speeds were doubled compared to when I used Flex.

As to the method to change flex.xml, I got a file explorer from the market specifically for rooted phones. Found the flex.xml file, edited the permissions and then edited the file per the post. Then I rebooted and lo and behold, it said 4g, but that was simply not the case in terms of the speeds I experienced.

The OP is a method for USA users that worked for me to get my full 4g working again. I also tested that with netspeed (i realize it is flawed, but that's what I use).
[LG Thrill 4G] TylDurden:
Let us know when you start missing calls and texts.
[LG Thrill 4G] Markyzz:
How would you know if you missed a call or text?
[LG Thrill 4G] kfdenden:
Ghosting is not a known issue on v20c. Can you specify?
[LG Thrill 4G] TylDurden:
A lot of people are experiencing ghost calls on v20c and I'm willing to bet that those who think they aren't don't realize when they do. I tried everything and still got ghost calls and missed texts. My wife would call my office and ask why I'm not answering my cell phone.
[LG Thrill 4G] kfdenden:
Oh yes. Durden - I remember your post. You are referencing, I believe

this thread

or

here

The majority of the complaints tend to center around using roms that were not in some way stock. This puts your phone out in stock Rogers, which I can't find any explicit issues with. I haven't put that in there because what you do with your phone after you flash is isn't covered in the post. I'm describing the method and providing the links, as stated in the OP.

The other type of complaint is from people using some form of 21. The posts I link to also have downgrade explanations. While there are several complaints, there are many happy folks. Here as well.
[LG Thrill 4G] ForumBlue:
Interesting, thanks for the guide. I'll give this a try in a few days.
[LG Thrill 4G] kfdenden:
No problem. I posted this in general so everyone could take a look. I posted my findings in the OP - let us know yours so we can edit the guide for readability if need be.
[LG Thrill 4G] TylDurden:
I never rooted my phone or flashed anything but stock KDZs. No matter which one I tried I always got ghost calls. Most of the articles and public complaints come from others on stock GB especially since root for v20c has only been around for a week or so. This is a really good tutorial (albeit found a couple other places), it's what I did back when Rogers first released GB and I posted my own little tutorial. I honestly hope you guys don't miss any calls. I'm tempted to even try it again cause Froyo is slow as hell and freezes up on me a ton but at least I'm not missing any calls or texts. I would be very interested in hearing from all of you after several days. It seems like I went a couple weeks on Rogers GB before I realized how bad of an issue I was having.

BTW when you said "Hold Vol Down+3D+Power to get the recovery menu and wipe everything one by one" did you mean all of these?

wipe data/factory reset

wipe cache partition

wipe cache partition and package recovery

clear nv dynamic partition
[LG Thrill 4G] rebel1699:
I have been running v20c for almost two weeks and can assure you I am not getting any ghosting. How do I know? I use youmail, and get e-mails when I miss calls and/or get voicemails. All the missed calls I see in youmail are also on my phone as missed calls-usually happening while I am asleep. Seems pretty solid. As for my APN, I only set mine up for data as I could care less about MMS. My APN setup is

Name-ATT HSDPA

APN-phone

The rest are left blank.

Speedtest.net app confirms my data speeds run comparable to my SGS2 Skyrocket speeds (to be fair, I live in an area with 3G, and no HSDPA or 4G LTE as of yet). So all in all, I am very pleased with the Rogers v20c on my AT&T LG Thrill. Lord knows AT&T is never going to get around to releasing an official GB for it. As far as official releases go, you are probably more likely to see ICS before GB. Although, both are probably just pipe dreams. :( Thank goodness for XDA devs.
[LG Thrill 4G] TylDurden:
I use youmail too. Sometimes the person calling me got my voicemail. Sometimes they got "the subscriber you are calling is unavailable"
[LG Thrill 4G] lg_haters_make_me_lol:
Thanks for this writeup, I followed it to flash over the Rogers gingerbread from the European open one. The only thing I did different is use drivers from Adixtra's writeup for the KDZ, for some reason the ones you provided wouldn't recognize the phone correctly. All I can say is wow, I totally forgot how nice it is to have the 850 MHz band lol. I never get less than 3 bars now, while the European one I would barely get the 3G/4G signal most places and would be flaky even on the EDGE network. And just a note to all the people confused about the whole "4G" speeds thing on different basebands: The only thing different about the European baseband is that you lose the 850 MHz band. From my experience, it provided the same 3G/4G speeds whether I was on the North American baseband or the European one, the only difference was in the coverage. But losing the 850 MHz band sucks, that's the one that penetrates buildings better I think.

[LG Thrill 4G] kfdenden:
NP - that was a biggie for me too. I am glad you found a working driver. No one has really been able to isolate the ghosting issue, although it has been demonstrated that it is not a hardware issue. I would recommend using the driver provided to standardize the results of this writeup, though, for the others who are looking to give it a shot.

[LG Thrill 4G] johnw230873:
Hi guys, glad I read this as I'm also missing calls and texts with 20A and 20C (stock).

You know you missed a text when you wife asks you why you didn't get bread or milk, as for the ghost calls you know you have missed these when you boss tell you , you should answer your phone when it hasn't rung :)
[LG Thrill 4G] kfdenden:
I had done the APN change earlier as well, but I have a grandfathered unlimited data plan which means I need to be on wap.cingular APN config. So, that is why it is included in the writeup. Thanks!
[LG Thrill 4G] kfdenden:
Since this isn't a hardware issue, it is either specifically in the ROM or with the ROM flashing and setup process. This process hasn't generated ghosting for my phone, nor from other users here. Please follow the guide and let us know your findings!
[LG Thrill 4G] kfdenden:
To get the 4g enabled speeds, you must have the proper sim (there should be NO green on it anywhere) and you need to specifically call AT&T to get them to provision your phone for 4G/LTE service. Do you think this would be good to include in the writeup?
[LG Thrill 4G] Markyzz:
Well, being this is the first time i've read that you need to call att and ask them to give you 4g speeds, yah i'd say this needs to be included in the writeup.

my sim is orange and blue. no green, i was getting h+ speeds on froyo, why would i not be able to get it on rogers GB?

Will ATT know that my phone was updated to 2.3 manually?
[LG Thrill 4G] TylDurden:
No, you don't have to call ATT to activate Foux G speeds. Mostly because they aren't really 4G (their 3G+ aka H+ our phone is not LTE), and because your phone, sim, account are all already set up for H+. I would love to be wrong but anything else just sounds rediculous.

Edit: Are you telling me you called ATT and something happened? This is the first I've heard of it.
[LG Thrill 4G] WeWearFedoras:
Can you post some speed test results. Currently I'm running v21a with lestatious biohazardous ROM. My speeds are decent but if I can get better speeds on v20c then I'll switch but if the speeds are basically the same then I'm not going to bother switching...
