I'm not sure if I would recommend the current MIUI builds. It seems to have some problems with PIN and IMEI, though I only have problems with the PIN, but some people here complained about IMEI problems. But maybe take an old MIUI build, 2.6.1 or earlier.

I've just updated the first post to reflect my current knowledge on the topic
[Miscellaneous Android Development] paul89rulez:
oh man, it simply, study your device..

setting> sound> vibration > never

you ve done.. remember that google and the manual of your phone are your friend
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wdhaeseleer:
You misunderstood my question.

This I already know ofcourse, however please read my questions (Especially the qoute van samsung)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kaefert:
your quote describes some samsung specific functionality, you will not get the same on your huawei honor unless you find (or write) an app for it.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wdhaeseleer:
Indeed it seems to be like that.

I was (wrong) assuming this was part of the android core and would be present on all android phone, which seems not the case.

I have tried the apps mentioned here and they seem to do the job, thanks !
[Miscellaneous Android Development] thekidgio:
Help!!! Please

Ok i have the Huawei Mercury and i know its not the same phone but its very similar and we have no rom support really for our phone...I was wondering if someone was nice enough from here to help us make some roms or help us gain our kernel source...please help
[Miscellaneous Android Development] paul89rulez:
as i sayd in m886 post here on xda, the mercury maybe is the huawei c8860, the cdma2000 version of the honor! so you MAYBE can install some custom rom for your phone, like the shenduos or something else

---------- Post added at 04:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:25 PM ----------

for all infos and chinese sites, and how to read it, look at the firs page of this post, kaefert have make a good how to :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wdhaeseleer:
@kaefert

Can you add the russian ROM : http://huaweidevice.ru/updates.html

Under the official roms on your first page.

As it seems to the most recent android version official from huawei.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kaefert:
done.

question: does the pink screen work as with B919 and before in the russian ROM?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Hawkeye_e2c:
boot loop

Hello !

I have a problem with doc3000's ROM (MIUI 2.3 v. 2.4.27 MULTILINGUAL and MIUI_8860_2.6.5_DOC2008).

Before installing the second one, I installed the B876 ROM (HUAWEI_U8860_Android_2.3_V100R001CHNC00B876), and then I installed recovery-u8860-en.img recovery

I followed all these points:

Each time, everything works fine, until I reboot the phone... then it boots loop (display Huawei logo, then restart). I might have a clue: when I erase the dalvik cache (successfully, at first glance) and I see the log, it says that that the folder doesn't exist...

I like doc's ROM, but I can't continue with this problem, it's very annoying.

I bought my Huawei in France...

Any ideas ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] paul89rulez:
if u read the miui doc trhead, you will notice that our eu honor, have different hardware than ru or ch honors.. now i m testing doc rom with a doc provided kernel for eu users, but its quite instable :/ not like before, now you can use the phone, it will restart, but not black screen with lights on..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tri_zet:
AFAIK pink screen does not work on all B923 build (RU/CN/ID)

it can be rooted, but can not change boot/recovery.img since huawei check signature of boot/recovery.img
[Miscellaneous Android Development] paul89rulez:
well, i think we need a rom coocker and a kernel mader, with optimization, using the old baseband for unofficial rom support :|
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wdhaeseleer:
I can confirm the pink screen is still accessible, but putting the custom recovery on will not boot the stock rom...

EDIT: However I can still access the files itself using adb, remount the partition as rw and push my files.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kaefert:
Okey, I see, so you can deploy custom kernels and recoveries with some tricks, but the phone doesn't boot them because they invented some extra checks that only allow kernels and recoveries certified by them to boot.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kaefert:
Well I'm not using it very long yet, it just came out a few hours ago. But so far I like it. But if you want stable use the huawei original ROM or something thats closly based on it. I tried out this one yesterday, and didn't have any force close or unexpected reboot or anything, but I only had it running till today morning --> MOD EDIT: Link removed.

Could they write it any bigger? its written in BIG RED LETTERS that you should just reply with the name of the device you want to vote for.

Although I agree with the both of you, that it would be nice to have an own subforum on xda-developers, I have to tell you that with the creation of a subforum you don't automatically create the developers filling it with nice ROMs.. Our device is apperently not as common in europe & the USA as we would like, its mostly sold in china, and there's a lot of development there (see links in my first post), the problem with that is their strange language ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] cosmos321:
Sorry, my mistake :)! I´ve just scrolled the POLL OPTIONS, i should read more carefully the first post. :rolleyes:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Lykkis:
Voted for it loooooooooong ago.

Been having my eye on that thread, don't think that number is correct.

It should be more!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wintel_mac:
Nice to see such a good compilation of information. My Honor is on its way and will come to me very soon I hope.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] cbr900:
I installed MOD EDIT: Link removed.

Please help me to install boot_voc.img in steps
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kaefert:
I don't know of any "boot_vice.img"

Maybe you mean "boot_voc2.img"

For deploying it just look at a guide explaining how to deploy a recovery.img

boot.img files should be deployed to the same place on our huawei u8860

My quite compact explanation you can find in the first post under the header "Recovery"

A bit more detailed is this guide I also linked in my first post:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=22688341&postcount=53
[Miscellaneous Android Development] cbr900:
Now, Having MOD EDIT: Link removed installed then I should do the following:

1- get the purple screen and replace the recovery.img with "boot_voc2.img" and rename it recovery.img

is that correct? what is next?

Can you help to remove my carriers name from the statusbar?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kaefert:
NO! recovery.img is the recovery from where you can flash stuff and backup or restore your system.

boot.img is completly different from that and contains the kernel, and optionally a ramdisk and a secondstage.

so your way is correct in principle but don't rename it to recovery.img but to boot.img (first rename the original boot.img thats already there so that you can step back if you want)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] EnDSK:
Guys I'm having serious problems with my phone. the battery temperature sometimes is very high around 42 degrees Celsius but that's rare.

And it reboots everytime it seems any load is put on the CPU. Like multi tasking minimizing apps playing temple run etc. It rebooted twice in 15 minutes just now. And yesterday I was on call and I got an SMS so I turned on the screen to check it during my call and it rebooted. This happened to me twice in a row.

I'm using miui 2.3 the latest version updated last Friday and a custom.kernel that overclocks upto 2.1 ghz. I've tried 1.8 only though but past few days I haven't tweaked the frequencies its 1.4 default.

And its rooted so I don't think I can even ask for a replacement from.huawei is that correct?

plus the haptic feedback is sometimes laggy it doesn't always work.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] lkarmaz2:
Where can one purchase the Huawei Honor online? I can't find it on Amazon or from any non-sketchy or reasonably-priced resellers.

I am in the US but I am willing to pay a lot in shipping if necessary.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wintel_mac:
Is anybody able to register at this chinese page and download and try CM7? At least from what I can read with google translate it seems to be stable

http://translate.google.de/translat...ttp://www.angeeks.com/thread-1959515-1-1.html
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kaefert:
lol, you call that stable?!

(translated from chinese therefore messed up grammar) --> "The normal function of the FM does not work, the front camera upside down (can be placed horizontally video)"

And why would anyone want CM7 for the u8860? CM7 is android 2.3 but we have android 4.0.3 ROMs, it would be nice to see a CM9 though. (CM9 is based on android 4)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kaefert:
I'm from austria, europe, and here its sold at amazon for 280€
[Miscellaneous Android Development] cosmos321:
Is there evidence, that the CyanogenMod-Developers will take care of the U8860? Would be GREAT :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kaefert:
nope. it doesn't seem to me like they ever will. however, if anyone finds the time, there is a nice guide for porting cyanogenmod yourself, and if you do it well, they will maybe include it into their device list and host your port. --> http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/15492-general-cyanogenmod-porting-discussion/

Somebody asked in their forum for the u8860 here: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/39210-pleasedevelop-for-huawei-honor-u8860/
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kaefert:
You should flash back a stock Gingerbread ROM and don't use anything custom and look if that is stable. If it is, it was only the unstable custom stuff you used. If it continues being unstable, then you should send your device in for replacement, then you have got a bad chip / mainboard
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wintel_mac:
Well stable != fully functional. Some problems are normal on not officially supported devices. So yes, I would call it stable.

And when it comes to ICS... it is of course great to have this but for some people GB may be still interesting.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] cosmos321:
But WHY would you use GB,if there's a STOCK ICS available??
[Miscellaneous Android Development] EnDSK:
Now it just rebooted and the soft key backloghts won't light up. are these issues miui related? And my phone hangs up for a minute or two before rebooting. Once it hung up but didn't reboot. Then I got a force close error for MIUIhome.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] EnDSK:
OK ill do that but like I said I rooted it so if I flash back to stock will they know I rooted it?

because everyone says rooting voids warranty.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] averaraz:
Hey,

What about the official U8860 ICS RUS? is it stable? did anyone try this version?

thanks

HO！HO！The emotionUI is coming. It will be released in the next month, or Sept maybe.

The new UI, developed by Huawei, is featured with “easy of use”,“powerful”,“ appreciative learning ”.

In the future, the emotionUI will be a part of the stock ROMs.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Jordibcn:
Great ! Do you know where to download the rom for Honor ? Thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kaefert:
Please tell me you're joking.. or I'm gonna start crying.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] paul89rulez:
uhauhauhauhauha XD

kae any news from amazon?:)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kaefert:
well, not any good ones.. they contacted huawei, and got a statement from them, that they forwarded to me, and thats the end of it from their point of view.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Jordibcn:
LOL, sorry my english is very bad.... I meant to say if the anyone knows when the ROM Emotion UI for Honor will be available here ...

Does it also remove / change the pink screen, or is this not reversed yet.

As you know B923 does not have a function pink screen anymore...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] desalesouche:
hi.could you upload the new kernel from doc3000; because i can't manage to dl it on 4pda.i have a 404 error.

can you upload also the miui with the rc1 official miui, with b876 kernel modified to work with custom roms.thx a lot.and have a good day.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Rokusho:
Thank you very much for the procedure, I finally got my Honor root

I have the Russian version B923

Greetings from Spain

He has already left in Italy? I'm looking at the website and facebook and no information about

thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] paul89rulez:
nope, nothing here.. they lyed D:

for the kernel, i cant upload it here, is a doc3000 work, and i dont know if he want :| and you have to know that the kernel its incomplete, and have some bugs ( i think i have found another one... this is bad, passed 3-4 hours, the phone wont recieve sms)

The rom with b876 kernel, isnt Miui rom, but is the stock b876 with miui appearance :|
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tropblaster:
Has anyone tried the final version of russian 4.0.3?

Is it betteer than the chinese one?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] JanviN:
Anyone here tried this rom? Working fmradio?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Rokusho:
I use the final version of Russia, but China is like the gapps working properly
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tropblaster:
I didn't understand it properly, and could you explain it with more details?

And does the Russian version have gapps installed
[Miscellaneous Android Development] doc3000:
This is modified by me B870 ROM made to work with my MIUI ROM and CM7 ROMS on U8860-51
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Rokusho:
Sorry for my english, i use de google translator and sometimes don´t work fine

The Russian version have the gapps instaled and working perfectly

The Russian version is B923SP01 and the Chinese version is B923SP03 but Russian is better than Chinese for my experience
[Miscellaneous Android Development] indian65:
I'm using B923SP03 modified by genoklar ( he ported CM7.2 for honor), it's a flashable zip with recovery and root, but not overclockable. It's multilanguage, fine and smooth ( for a processeur at 1.4 Ghz) and it's possible to flash the gapp ICS.It's work fine for me.

But you need instal before the official B919.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] paul89rulez:
yes ics is good, honor with ics do good videos and photos, but the memory managment is bad, and the speed compared to gb, or doc3000 miui, with stock modified kernel is slow.. personally i dont like too much ics, in all device (talking about stock, not cm9 or aosp) il slow compared to gb.. my friend buyed a sgs 3.. omg, sometimes the phone lags alot, stock gb honor with alternative launcher is blazing fast compared to.. the proof that quad cores in the smartphones, is useless, if u dont play games ( and here, sorry guys, but why people have to spend off 700 € to buy a gs3 to play 2002 like graphic games, when with 500 € you can own an i5 with a good videocard and a ton of gb of ram to play at bf3 skyrim and more? :| or with 280€ play 3 wii or xbox360? or 240€ playstation vita or n3ds? bah :|)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Rokusho:
You could put the site from where you've downloaded? As paul89rulez says ICS is fine but badly managed memory and has some delay in the menus

thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Hawkeye_e2c:
arf

Thanks for your work, doc' !

Still, I can't see the difference with your boot.img: I still have a boot loop after a restart.

Maybe I've done something wrong...

- I installed HUAWEI_U8860_Android_2.3_V100R001DEUC00B870_Normal_WestEurope_05010VWP ROM

- Then the recovery: recovery-u8860-en.img

- I installed MIUI_U8860_2.4.27_MULTILINGUAL_DOC3000 ROM (3 wipes before installation, plus the format of system/, installation, and then 3 wipes)

- I checked if the correct boot.img (yours) was there

-> boot loop after a restart...

I'm getting addicted to your ROM, I can't think of going back to the official one ;)

Any ideas?

try to use my latest MIUI rom. Link to download. Just replace original kernel of my rom with attached my modified B870 kernel.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Lykkis:
I went back to 2.3.6 B866 from russian 4.0.3 after using that for some time.

4.0.3 B919 (i think) was not bad apart from a few reboots and very bad ram use, but yesterday my phone was all boot loops. Pulled battery, restore factory defaults but nothing helped. My daughter has been running B866 on hers from new and have had no problems.

Seems this phone is badly supported and bad software, so i will look to change it sooner rather than later. Was thinking of the Huawei Acsend P1S, but this brand has left a bad impression on me. My next phone will be a Motorola Razr Maxx. :fingers-crossed:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bottedumal:
hi man, you most probably set doc's rom to french, when doing that, you have bootloop if you restart. if you set to english it should work fine :)

ps: it is the case with newer builds from doc, i didn't try the 2.4.27 MULTILANGUAGE release, please feedback :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Pass_Code:
Is the recovery working with B923SP03 modified by genoklar ? And is this rom better than Birdyi's one ? Thanks a lot :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Hawkeye_e2c:
Yeah, it works ! :good:

Merci bottedumal ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tropblaster:
Anyone tried this rom before if yes is it good?

http://www.shendu.com/android/rom-903.html
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Rakter:
Anybody with the same problem than me?

On MIUI rom, every newest rom that 2.6.1 looses the IMEI.

Even with IMEI backup'ed with that program, when restoring it, the Honor stays the same, without IMEI/SIM.

Even full wipe with the Oficial Huawei Rom, the MIUI Rom keeps doing that. :S
[Miscellaneous Android Development] paul89rulez:
shendu os is good but last version dont install some apps :| regarding miui v4 yes its "normal" -___-

-guys, i ve found a cm9 autocompiler, anyone wanna try to compile out this for our honour? i cant because i dont have a strong adsl, and for me 6gb of source are 26+ hours of downloading :|

hope that someone wanna build cm9, with b977 baserom and genokernel :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kaefert:
I'm really fed up with B919 and the MIUI builds based on it. The bugs in MIUI seem to me to be getting more and more instead of less..

The memory managment is extremly horrible, every powerhungry app lags, and everything in the background, even stuff that should keep running, is killed after a few minutes, for example my gps-logger (oruxmaps) or the built in music player.

Also a few days ago I tried to go by car somewhere and wanted to use google navigation to get there, but first it told me that its not available in my area (?!? wtf, austria has google nav almost from the start, at least long before I bought my first android phone) and then it crashed every other minute.

So long story short, I am thinking of switching to something else, only I'm undeciced if I should go back to B977 based ICS MIUI builds, or if I should give doc3000 gingerbread MIUI port a try.

What are you guys running on your huawei honor? (especially you paul89rulez ;))
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kaefert:
Well, I got as far as this ;) -->

http://kaefert.is-a-geek.org/huawei_honor/cyanogenmod_compiler_screenshot_packages.png

But I don't have the time to search through this links now what packages I need and so on.. Maybe another time, but where are those 6gb cyanogenmod sources? until now I only downloaded like 1mb worth of software ;)
