U8860 ICS4.0 latest news (from chinese microblogging)

New B932 ROM will be released this Sunday.

Release notes:

- fixed memory leak. 200Mb of free RAM will be available

- fixed network authentication (dropped calls, poor signal)

- touch screen optimized
[Miscellaneous Android Development] The_Chosen_One:
Can you post a source? Thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Sharken:
Best choice right now would seem either the Galaxy S III or the One X, i would choose the S III due to better battery life.

Below those two there is the Motorola RAZR MAXX, which has superior battery life.

And for staying current with the latest Android releases, the Google Nexus phone is a solid choice.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] gintariukeas:
Which ROM is the best for now to play games (decent RAM usage)? :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] paul89rulez:
pick up only google products! or galaxy nexus or nexus s! or htc, they ever relases sources! samsung sucks, is wrost than huawei for the modding policy :|
[Miscellaneous Android Development] gintariukeas:
Pleaase, can someone advice me?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] cosmos321:
German GB 2.3.6 B870 !! You can download it ether from the official website (click) or directly from my dropbox (click) !
[Miscellaneous Android Development] gintariukeas:
Thanks, will try it out :fingers-crossed:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tropblaster:
am i the only one that dont want the JB update because of the dropped support for flash player?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] trekker99:
I seriously doubt this would actually make a difference unless you forgot to also copy in the vendor directory which contains a similar file to update_cust.app. If you had copied both directories from the Germany ics package into your sd card, you should have similar results.

you dont need that, html5 is largely supported now.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tekplyrx:
Hello all,

In the very first post kaefert mentioned that b919 miui 2.7.20 germany is his recommendation, but i just saw 2.7.27 and 2.8.3 on miui germany's site. Has anyone tried them out? I currently have the ics b919 on my phone and the free memory is around <= 120mb so the phone lags alot, now doc3000 is posting that a new rom will be out this coming sunday? Any recommendations will be welcome. Thanks :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] paul89rulez:
my suggestion is to w8 for b932, and i hope that my device came back fixed and i can test it!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Rokusho:
I have the German version and I am very happy with the results. Still I will try the new version for improvements
[Miscellaneous Android Development] gintariukeas:
I have tried:

DOC3000 miui- there where few random reboots, some random app crashes. Free memory- ~150- 220.

MIUIandroid/ miui.us- very laggy, crashes, especially miuiandroid...

Cambodia demo version ICS- free memory- ~200. But sluggish...

Russian ICS- ~120 free memory, laggy even playing temple run.

German 2.3.6- stable, ~220 free memory, no lag.

Anyone know how to root 2.3.6 german? After flashing this version i cant root it again, nothing works.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] paul89rulez:
you need last miui doc 3000 kernel in 4pda trhead, and the royality free kernel wich is only for european honor like yours
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sjj1991:
im facing a very weird behaviour on my phone.. this happens on most of the apps/games i use, when using an app, it runs smoothly for some time, but after a while, it will lag and freeze the phone, even the buttons below the screen do not work..

i usually have to wait for about a min or so for the phone to respond again so i can kill the app or click on the force close button..

im currently using the bingo 1.5 rom, the amount of free ram on this rom is plenty, so im sure the problem is not related to low free ram.. i also faced this problem when i was using b923 ics..

i have tried installing the v6 supercharger script, but it doesnt seem to have any effect..

can this be a hardware problem?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] gintariukeas:
I cant install custom ROMS because phone is not rooted.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] paul89rulez:
phone become hot? if yes, try to set the freq to 1ghz or 1.2 while gaming.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] gintariukeas:
Which ICS version is the best for now?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] paul89rulez:
w8 until this sunday when b932 arrives :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tropblaster:
How do you know that b932 is coming this sunday
[Miscellaneous Android Development] indian65:
]if it's not a fake
[Miscellaneous Android Development] gintariukeas:
And what about JB? Will this be available?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Rokusho:
with what we have been slow to take ICS doubt very much that they get JB
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tropblaster:
Can my phone get damaged if i have underclocked to 700 mhz for a long period?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ksuuk:
And in http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=302007&st=15820#entry14909761 You said at 09.08.2012, 18:08:

"News update B932

B932 firmware release will be released until next Friday (until 17/08/12) - now the exact date is not announced.

Will be released before - I'll let you know"

So all we can do is sit and wait:)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] paul89rulez:
NO lol. Its better i think, but i dont see how you have to take this phone to 700mhz! set min 1ghz ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] VolumeEST:
What is the main point of underclocking the phone.It will make the phone chopy and lagi or people like lagi and slow phones ? :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ksuuk:
If You are using it as a regular phone, fol calling only, I think 200-500 mhz will do the job. You need more power for games, browsing etc. So the best way shold be set for each program max cpu frequency and so save the power. However, the screen takes a most of it anyway:(.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] rizpusher:
So anybody heard any news about the new update?

im in china and no OTA today or yesterday...but 927 got official

http://bbs.anzhi.com/thread-5477592-1-1.html
[Miscellaneous Android Development] morpheus620:
B927 is a same with 926 and 924 or 923.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] neoblast:
u sure? i thought it has better memory management and stuff. maybe i read wrong. its late, my chinese sucks.

can you describe a little more?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] morpheus620:
the B932 has a better ram support.

But this is only the end of this week.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] JanviN:
Hmm.. The B932, is it available from Emui or is it delayed?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] morpheus620:
EMUI comes later.

But there is already a beta.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] ksuuk:
But this is for U8860-51? Isn't U8860-51 the noncamera version?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] neoblast:
well i dont think so cause you can see on the screen caps that there is the camera icon. moreover, the guy do a review on it and talk about the camera.

from what i understand this is what he basically say.

cant comment on battery life for now.

looks the same as b923

says its better for 3g and wifi i think..

better screen responsiveness/sensitivity

talk about audio but idk whats up with that (i really hope they fix the low output

some stuff about memory. not sure its better or not.

camera still hangs a little

better game support

better phone reception
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ksuuk:
Hmm, but why in some countries the Honor is listed as U8860-51 and/or U8860? I have U8860. Does anybody here have U8860-51?

Also user manuals are listed for both versions - http://www.huaweidevice.com/worldwide/technicaIndex.do?method=gotoProductSupport&productId=3834

For example:

HUAWEI U8860-51 Quick Start(V100R001_01,EN,Normal) - http://www.huaweidevice.com/worldwi...=toDownloadFile&flay=document&softid=NDQwODM=

HUAWEI U8860 Quick Start(V100R001_01,EN,Normal) - http://www.huaweidevice.com/worldwi...=toDownloadFile&flay=document&softid=NDM5ODA=

The last one is more detail, however both contain info about the camera using.

From http://www.facebook.com/HuaweiDeviceMY

We are currently looking into an updated build for the ICS ROM for Huawei Honor (U8860) for the local market and we hope to be able to share this update once our technical side gives the go-ahead for this. Thanks and we appreciate your frank feedback on our products.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] paul89rulez:
all eu honors are u8860-51 i think. The u8860 maybe is the 2 touch points honor, the first one.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ksuuk:
Hmm, my 2 month old item is U8860, this is in printed in package label and also same shows the phone settings > about phone > model. And I'm in EU and I brought it officially from local operator.

Strange.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] paul89rulez:
its a mistery.. i dont know what passed in mind of huawei when they makes honor.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Rokusho:
My Honor also is U8860

I think that U8860-51 is for American countries
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ksuuk:
ˇ

Well, strange that some vendors make ****ty stuff and put a lot money to advertise it, but as service works, so ordinary people will buy it and think it's cool. Some vendors do great good stuff, but their PR sucks, service doesn't exist and freaks like us, get's it....

[Miscellaneous Android Development] morpheus620:

[Miscellaneous Android Development] neoblast:
im quite sure it has to do with supply issues during manufacturing rather than a product decision.

So let's hope that this will be global update.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ksuuk:
Well, 932 is out, but this is for Ascend G330D - http://www.huaweidevice.com/cn/down...index&directoryId=3372&treeId=0&type=software
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Rokusho:
And the update for the Honor?

Huawei = LG???
[Miscellaneous Android Development] paul89rulez:
why you dont read the trhead before posting something useless? whe had a lot of demo and semifinal updates, whe had ics before the nexus s. Maybe huawei will give us jb sometimes. No huawei is not lg.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] VolumeEST:
Hello.Any ICS updates? Or the B926 is still the newest?4
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ptr_hamilton:
Well, ics is available in Germany :D

http://www.huaweidevices.de/telefone/honour.html -> downloads
[Miscellaneous Android Development] rizpusher:
its version: U8860IV100R001WEC00B924SP01
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dachau:
So the B932 was a missunderstandung and the ROM will actually never come out??
[Miscellaneous Android Development] rizpusher:
alot of rumour spreading people! "ehh my granddad has a friend that has a cousin that works in huawei poland and they said its coming by this sunday" NOTE SARCASM!!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ksuuk:
It was not a rumor, 932 came out, but for Ascend G330D. Also Huawei Finland promised soon ISC update.

Found interesting stuff from 4pda.ru (http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=302007&view=findpost&p=15107967) (goole translated) - "Next week is "Huawei Week".

Huawei Russia will answer all questions in a live broadcast. Everything you wanted to know, you can ask all departments of the company Huawei.

Developers, executives, marketers, etc. will every day for 1 week to answer questions online users.

Hopefully then disappear questions about the "Official site huaweidevice.ru", the "bootloader", etc.""

So I'm pretty sure a lot info will be available then.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] JanviN:
Is there any Gingerbread based Miui 4.0 for our phones?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] emddummi:
That does not work. It's just MIUI 2.3 on basis of GB or MIUIv4 on the basis of ICS.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] VolumeEST:
Can somebody help me? I installed the B870 but there is Vendror-dload2 folder too, how can i istall that?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] emddummi:
Rename folder to Dload and flash like the first
[Miscellaneous Android Development] t-ryder:
Coming from HTC Saga (running newest MIUI 4 ICS) all this confuses me.

With the Saga it all worked like a charm, but I am worried that when my Honor arrives things get messy.

-Is MIUI ICS ready for daily use or should I use a GB version and if yes which?

-How would be the flashing procedure for MIUI ICS when my Honor arrives here having stock 2.3.6?

-Why has the Honor no own sub-forum? Is it so low activity here?

Hopefully I don't regret selling my old worn out Saga.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dachau:
- Best ROM in my opinion (in terms of speed, stability and battery time) is GB based B870.

- I did not fully try MIUI as all custom ROMs crashed after I tried them. But could have been due to an installation mistake of mine (I formatted /system partition).

- Flashing works by going into a so called Pink Mode that allows you to replace the recovery while the phone is connected via USB. Once the recovery is replaced you have CWM and can flash zips.

- Not many people seem to have the Honour, mostly Chinese, Italians, Russians and some Germans (like me).
[Miscellaneous Android Development] paul89rulez:
you need proper kernel if u have honor with 5 touch screen points, the you can use all roms based on cm7. So miui, lewa, ecc ecc.

Black squares

I get these black squares around non square objects in some android games. For example "Metal Gun: Blood War" also in "Gario Gros". Other games runs great. Huawei Honor. ICS version: B924SP01. Any ideas what might cause this?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] gintariukeas:
I get this with some games too...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wildcheese:
I just got my new Huawei Honor and it comes now with ICS (4.0.3) standard - at least here in Netherlands. As far as I can see it's pretty much stock, with some minor Huawei customations.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Lykkis:
What software version is it on it?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wildcheese:
Its B924SP01. I'm pretty new to this thread and the honor - so still finding my ways here. The version I have seems ok-ish - pretty much standard ICS.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ksuuk:
This all very confusing. As officially there is no international ICS yes. Still some (countries) get their phone with it only. If users with GN are trying to upgrade to the demo ICS, then if something goes wrong with upgrade, also downgrade to stock GB build isn't possible, as it is not available. I tried to get it from service, the denied as only they can dot it.

Contacting Huawei isn't possible.

Damn.

search a bit, you can easly go back to b9xx to any gb rom. Use search button, or google xda honor
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ksuuk:
Yes, I know that I can go back. But I need orginal stock firmware.

FYI, I did send same question to eu-support@huawei.com

"I asked in Facebook: " Huawei please always publish these stock

versions, which was installed by default, as right now even I'd like to

try some ICS version, I know, that if ICS fails, I can't downgrade phone

to the the default stock GB. So please, tell me from where I can

download U8860V100R001EURC00B873. Today local Huawei service

([url]http://www.mttc.ee/[/url]) replied, that even they don't have the B873."

Huawei answered: " The firmware has been updated. You can now access the

new firmware V100R001EURC00B892 from your local service center"

Please explain more, what does it mean? Should I get the software from

them or not? As today service finally replied, that local service in

Estonia doesn't do anything, they just send all phones to their main

office which is located in Lithuania (another country) and only they

will upgrade the firmware if phone is under warranty (it is). If this is

an official update, then why I can download right now demo and hopefully

soon official ICS but I can't download stock or new GB directly or from

Huawei Suite? Why I must send my phone to another country and wait many

weeks to get simple firmware update what is 15 minutes job?

Why in official Huawei pages, like [url]http://www.huaweidevices.de[/url]

([url]http://www.huaweidevices.de/telefone/honour.html[/url]) is possible to

download latest GB or ICS. If Huawei doesn't have page for Estonia, then

please add all related software to global site. Please explain, this

must be misunderstanding, as I can't figure out this discrimination reason?

So again, I have U8860V100R001EURC00B873. Where can I download it?

In Huawei homepage is only HUAWEI_U8860_Android_2.3_V100R001C00B866SP01_Normal. "

The answer:

"Dear Customer,

Thank you for contacting Huawei device.

Sorry about took this trouble to you.

If you downgrade your U8860 from Android 4.0 to Android 2.3, you should send

your device to Huawei service center to do.

And it is need the professional to do it.

But the service center in Estonia isn't a main service center , it is only a

collect center.

So it can't afford the professional method to downgrade it.

Once again thank you for contacting Huawei device.

Best Regards.

Huawei Device Customer Care Team."

http://huaweidevices.de/telefone/honour.html#downloads

go here, click to downloads, and download b870. Its the best gb rom out there, and have all leanguages.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ksuuk:
Thanks, but as I'm still using default stock B873, then why should I downgrade it to B870?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] paul89rulez:
oh, so stick with it. Its not a downgrade, the major relase is b87X, other numbers are country\carrier customization. So is based on the same kernel and rom.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] compuflexnet:
MIUI_8860_2.8.24_MULTILINGUAL_DOC3000 (with 5 touches kernel) seems to be the rom for me that has better features than any stock rom and still reliable, stable and compatible with all gingerbread apps (e.g. shadowgun and plants vs. zombies). Custom ICS roms would have been better if only all of my all-time favorite apps work on it. I'll give custom ICS roms a few more months for all apps to work on it and most kinks fixed.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kaefert:
What stuff did you smoke? there are plenty of official GB & ICS versions available? just look at the links in the first post...

EDIT: and you should read the Disclaimers of emails you get, or maybe you're gonna get into deep **** one day, because posting emails sent to you with a note that it is confidential to a publicly readable forum is quite a offensive thing to do for which you may be sued in most law systems...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ksuuk:
None. Now I must tell You, like You have told, that read the thread:). I don't want ANY I want my default stock. That's the point.

Personal messages are confidential. True. But, You also published Your messages to Huawei. And as You didn't tell us about result, I wanted to show to the community, that it is possible to get answer from them, maybe it's is usable to someone.

About the law. Well. Huawei screws us, by violating the GPL. So let's screw them back:).

But OK, I removed the forward part, and left only the question and answer. No disclaimers there, is this OK by You?

Peace!

---------- Post added at 11:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:25 AM ----------

Ok, great to know. Let's it be right now. I'm just trying to figure out the Huawei firmware (release)policy:

I have U8860V100R001EURC00B873, so why I can't get (OTA or Huawei suite or download) official GB update, announced by Huawey - V100R001EURC00B892? As this is GB update, not downgrade?

Why in Germany, Russia, France, Italy, Belgium, Malaysia etc Huawei homepages have GB and ICS versions available, so users can do upgrade or downgrade but others cannot? As far I know (howevwe I haven't done it), downgrading is a same procedure as upgrading. Everybody can do it. Download the firmware, and follow the HUAWEI U8860 Firmware Upgrade Guide.pdf

Why also these previously mentioned countries get OTA update, but others don't, however as far I know for example B926 works fine for everyone?

So, the main question is, why isn't all stock firmwares and their official updates available from Huawei homepage? Right now the only GB available is HUAWEI_U8860_Android_2.3_V100R001C00B866SP01_Normal.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] JanviN:
Kaefert, what rom are you using right now?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kaefert:
Well as paul already told you, the differences between B870 & B87x is very small, you probably won't notice the differneces, unless you're searching for them.

Well I can post my work (writings) anywhere I want, thats my right. I did nto publish mails that I recieved from huawei, since they also contained a confidential notice. But I did post that I did not recieve anything useful from neither huawei nor amazon.de on this subject.

gg, well I don't mind, you can publish top secret government papers here if you like, Its only a friendly suggestion from me to prevent you from getting sued. Of course Huawei did break copyright law by violating the GPL, but sadly(and sometimes gladly) our justice system doesn't work like "a fault for a fault".

Yes, upgrading and downgrading to any stock ROM release is the same procedure.

You are not bound to only flash stock ROMs that have been released by your local huawei website. You can flash any, and most languages are in every release from any hauwei website.

Why did they not release YOU'RE version? well probably because they where to lazy to do it, and because the difference to other already available versions is REALLY SMALL.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kaefert:
I just upgraded from MIUI-Germany 2.8.20 to MIUI-Germany 2.8.24 (based on B919)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] JanviN:
How is the memory management recently?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kaefert:
Well... I can't say that I'm really happy, but I've seen worse in the past. If you want good memory managment on the huawei honor, you need to stick with GB ROMs (at least for the moment, when there are really big changes, I'll be sure to post it here)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] JanviN:
Thanks ;) I think I'll try doc's newest build and take it from there ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] emddummi:
