Already launched in Indonesia Firmware B220
[Huawei Ascend P1] dddrko:
Can you share the link please?
[Huawei Ascend P1] fasst:
I've learned this about versions, from Huawei.

V100R001C00B219

V100R001C185B103

C00B219 is the earliest version which is only normal for basic use. C185B103 is the latest version for Northeast Europe.

This means that the C00B219 published here is old even if it was published 24.7. And when it's unpacked the folder says it's North Europe, but I think it's wrong.

So when refering to versions it should be the nbrs./characters after V100R001.

But what is Northeast Europe? In C185B103 there is Greek language too,
[Huawei Ascend P1] dddrko:
C00B219 is latest version but for no-branded devices. C185B103 is for Telenor Norway network. Country/Region code is not determined by rom but by phone (by IMEI probably). When flashing rom check for country/region and link proper directory (with apps, media and setting) from /cust to /data/cust. If you flash wrong rom you'll finish without this files and settings. If somebody know how to symlink from e.g. /cust/hw/default to /data/cust at boot time please tell me. We can have fully functional devices with any rom version. I can simply copy them, of course, but symlinking is proper solution.
[Huawei Ascend P1] fasst:
C185B103 is not for Telenor network spesifically. I've got this confirmation from Huawei.

I'm also using one of the U9200 with a Beeline(Russia) sim-card i Norway(roaming with Netcom). I asked Huawei if C185B103 is ok in Russia and they confirmed it.

U9200 sold unlocked in Norway has C185B103, as mine two.

B221

Here's the download link for version B221:

http://depositfiles.com/files/0n49xswqo

It gives an error in the end, but everything is working fine.

Baseband Version: IMC1202_20120727_PENTA

Kernel Version: 3.08-00002-ge77263e

Build Number: U9200-1V100R001C00B221.

@nilste: Can you check what's differente in this ROM?

@nilste&dddrko: Does any of you know anything about compiling from source. I'm desperate to get CM9 working on P1.

Cheers
[Huawei Ascend P1] fasst:
Thanks, downloading.

I will flash this on one of my U9200 later today or tomorrow to see what differences I'll find.

Compiling/dev. is not my strenght so I have to pass.

PS. The error you got at the end of the flash is normal.

EDIT: Is this an official rom?
[Huawei Ascend P1] fasst:
Difference between B221 and B104

I've tried to compare the two versions:

This is from build.prop.

B221-ro.build.date=Fri Jul 27 15:36:26 CST 2012

B104-ro.build.date=Tue Jul 3 23:33:52 CST 2012

There's a lot of differences in the build.prop files, to many to mention here. But one I noticed in B221 is 'ro.config.hw_support_ipcall=false'. This is missing in B104.What it means I'm not sure. Something to do with the dialer I think.

Flashing:

Before flashing B221 I needed to use the build.prop earlier posted on B104 before flashing B221. If I don't I get 'Version list failure' when trying to flash B221.

After flash B221 doesn't reboot automatically. B104 does.

Booting:

B221 has a text based boot ani. B104 has a graphic type of boot ani.

Home screen.

In B221, new folder, Tools(calck,etc) For some reason the homescreen changed and lost the two folders, Tools and Google.

GSM-coverage the same on both.

Wifi, the same on both.

Apps are the same(haven't checked versions)

But now as earlier, the pull down menu/toogles(GPS,WIFI etc.) are missing after flashing B221. The same happend with B219.

I've reflashed B221 over B221, without sim.card, and the toggles are still missing. I can't figure out what does this.

If I could solve the toggle problem I would try B221 for a while. So if someone has a clue on how to get them, let me know.
[Huawei Ascend P1] mamv:
Strange, on mine the toogles are there...
[Huawei Ascend P1] dddrko:
Nilste, do you have /data/cust folder? If not, then create it, copy xml folder from /cust/hw/default there and reboot.
[Huawei Ascend P1] fasst:
YES, that did the trick. Thanks!

But i still don't understand why this is happening. When I flash B221 once again over B221 the toggles are gone.

So there must be something special with our phones, bought with B103.

But what?

---------- Post added at 11:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:53 AM ----------

Does anyone have a list of secret codes for the U9200?

Want to check the camera firmware.

The camereas focus point sound is terrible. I can't beleive it is mecanical sound, from such a small camera.
[Huawei Ascend P1] dddrko:
Some applications (polaris office, facebook, twitter and riptudegp), media files (bootanimation, shutdownanimation, wallpapers), libs, icons and settings are stored in recovery2 image of update.app. When you flash rom they are stored in /cust directory. All roms with "Normal" in their name have this files for "sw/default" coutry/region and they are inside /cust/sw/default directory. You and me have "europe/default" devices and roms for it (C185B1xx) have europe/default folder in /cust too. C00B2xx roms doesn't have it. Depending of device region, proper files from /cust are syminked to /data/cust directory. 'cose there's not europe/normal folder in C00B2xx nothing is linked. If you copy or link this files from /cust/sw/default to /data/cust everything will work fine, until you reflash or delete them. But flashing other roms, like chinese e.g. is big risk 'cose there are even more things changed, like radio software, bootloader etc.

To check your device coutry/region type *#*#2846579#*#* at phone app, then goto "ProjectMenu" > "Network setting" > "2. Operator and country info"
[Huawei Ascend P1] fasst:
Yes I can understand this. But it has to be something else too.

If I flash C00B221 once, I don't get the toggels. After flashing B221 I would think that the phone "beleives" it is a normal phone, not based on C185B1xx firmware.

By flashing B221 once more over B221 I expected my phone would act as any other phone pased on C00Bxxx firmware. But second flash B221 still dosen't give me the toggels.

Maybe there as som hidden or unknown partition that holds some info from the original firmware and this is the reason why a second flash of B221 doesn't give me a standard B221 rom.
[Huawei Ascend P1] dddrko:
Such an information shouldn't be flashable. It is probably IMEI based.

Hmmmm. I've just disovered something very strange. There's plain text file in UPDATE.APP (unknown_file.3) which have list of all roms available. B221 doesn't have C185B1xx roms listed in. There are also roms we don't know anything about (like U9200-1V100R001C00B219) and some wich look like updates (HDU9200MC00N010)
[Huawei Ascend P1] fasst:
Should be interesting to know what you find in this file from B10X.

Battery Drain

Can you guys confirm the standby battery drain (mA) you're having?
[Huawei Ascend P1] fasst:
I haven't measured mA but I find the standby time very good. I'm using Cpu Spy and Better Battery Stats.

With Wifi on, 3G, Google location service on, no frozen apps.

76% battery level

1d 7,5h on battery

Screen time 30 min

Deep sleep - 14h

As we know Google Location Service generates a lot of wakelocks keeping the phone from going into deep sleep.

Normallly I freeze guite a few apps using Titanium backup to reduce wakelocks but I haven't done it yet.

Edit: Have changed user name :)

Cases for the Ascend P1

Finally I got the cases I ordered for the U9200.

Rock - hard case.

This is one of the cases I have for my SG3 and as we know the quality is superb. As it's a hard case it doesn't give mutch protection like thick tpu-cases but it gives the U9200 a very exclusive look.

Nikilin TPU Flexicase.

Although this case also gives the U9200 a very exclusive look, the case is very thin. I'm not sure if it will give mutch protection if the phone falls on a hard floor.

Finally decided to root it. used the method for B115 and it worked and i got super user. Some how i installed the "cwm_touch_recovery_viva_beta.img" recovery img.

I installed some gapps package which i found online and now my phone got stuck with the andriod logo. It tells me to touch it but when i do it, it gave me a error saying setup wizard falied. I tired data and chace wipining in recovery. Now the same error comes but in Chinese. This is the screen i get now when i switch on the phone. I didnt take back up before flashing gapps pack.

Which conuntry are you living in when you got OTA to B104?
[Huawei Ascend P1] harshdev:

[Huawei Ascend P1] dddrko:
Rooting is easy but DON'T do it withouth your original firmware backup. The B103 from the net is test version, not like the one you have. Having rooted phone may damage some of your system files and you must have original firmware to be able to flash back or you will lose your warranty.

Now, I was playing yesterday with Huawei Emotion UI (http://ui.vmall.com/index.html). I was forced to use alternate method to root this firmawe, but it worked like charm. I'll describe the method later, if somebody having troubles with the method described in this topic. What I wanted to say here that I finaly tested (and succeed) to have fuly funtional firmware for other country/region phone than mine is. After rooting the phone I went to recovery and did the full wipe. Rebooted and mount /cust as rw. There I renamed hw/default folder to normal/europe (wich I have) and rebooted again. During reboot system linked this to /data/cust and phone booted like it should, with all the customizations on ;)

i also cannot install again any original firmware, cant do any update for the same reason....:(

please help.

the phone works ok with stock firmware but i cant do anything else..
[Huawei Ascend P1] JohnnyParanoia:
Problems installing Gapps

To restore the stock firmware V100R001C00B219(Normal)(05010XWP) you would first need to flash the B118 stock recovery to your phone (There is some problem with the custom recovery's that are available for the P1 at the moment because they all give the version check error when trying to install stock firmware) and this may still not work because of the version check problem.

You could try (and this would be totally experimental) flashing the B119's stock image to your phone and then using the 'dload' forced method to flash the firmware.

I've never heard of the hat error with the recovery image, which image did you flash? Have you tried the cwm_touch_recovery_viva_beta.img which is the latest one and uses the touchscreen instead of the volume keys?

If you need a tutorial to flash the recovery its here - How to - Manually flash a recovery image via ADB

If you want to take it back to stock and start again then

Download -

The B118 stock recovery here - B118 Stock Recovery Image

The B118 stock rom here - Ascend P1 U9200-1 (Android 4.0) V100R001CHNC00B118(Generic Version) and the Gapps package here - gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip

Follow the guide How to - Manually flash a recovery image via ADB to install the stock recovery.

Then this one How to - Restore stock Firmware on Huawei Ascend P1 - U9200 to restore the B118 firmware.

Next root it again, the same way you did originally and install the cwm_touch_recovery_viva_beta.img using the How to - Manually flash a recovery image via ADB

Reboot into recovery choose 'install zip from SDCard>Choose zip from SDCard>and navigate to where you copied gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip and install.

This should work for you and has been tested by pradeep on my blog here - Huawei Ascend P1 U9200 - Firmware List scroll down to the comments (he had pretty much the same problem as you)

It boots into recovery and then quickly gives me an error "Version list verify fail! Huawei SD card update fail".

When I try to perform the upgrade from recovery instead of the System menu, it doesn't show the update.app file in the dload directory (shows an empty directory), which I'm assuming means it's looking for some other type of file.

Many thx.

I have the same question as etolson.

I have B221, rooted. Would be nice if you could write a few lines on how to flash EMUI.

I have the stock 1V100R001CHNC00B118 (I'm in China). It's rooted, and I managed to flash gapps onto it.

I had installed the touch-screen bootloader on it (unlockbootloader-P1D1), but I've since re-installed the stock bootloader thinking that may be the issue.

Note to self: Do remember to set default storage location to SD card, not to internal storage. Problem solved. Apps 2 SD is now working flawlessly.
