anyone here tried ascend mate for gaming?

hey guys, i've been planning to get this ascend mate here in the philippines. i'm just thinking, if anyone tested ascend mate with heavy games like nba2k13 or real racing 3? any feedback guys? thanks!
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] theoppositeman:
Hi,

Just an opinion. Playing heavy games or that require high graphic are not so well in Mate. Although expensive, why not choose sony ultra z? It has the requirements. Other than heavy games, Mate does making a great phone that lasted one whole day of heavy use...

Just an idea, other users might not agree as im not a phone gamer..:)

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] jsyvizcarra:
Well, if i have that enough money, i'd really choose ultra z, :laugh: thanks for input by the way. :good:

Hi to Mate experts (like syaah, miztres etc..)

This could be a long explaination.

Formerly im in chinese firmware started from the b11x right until the update b119. Then i change to global rom b112, then flash the 1.08gb b113 firmware. I tried (more than 10x) updating to b216 with no success, always come Fail. Changing from different sdcard (smaller size also) in different format still cant do. Till i got fed up and wish out there someome might have the full b216/217.

Advise me on this, maybe with steps or guides, im willimg to follow wht steps coz mbe i still missing something. Other than updates, i had no problems..

I wanted to turn back to chinese firmwares but too lazy to root for gapps and so on.

Thanks guys..(though im one of the first Mate owner, atill noobs :D)

Hi, I play : real racing 3 with some glitches but it's playable.

Max Payne with no problem.

Ravensword works

Real boxing is starting but there is a graphic bug.

NFS:Most wanted is working

I tried some others games and the only problem is coming from the driver of the gpu.

I saw some graphic bugs but the games was working.

So Huawei must make an update to fix this problem.

I agree about the battery, it's the best but it's not that for playing too.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] syaah:
Hi oppositeman,

I am no expert, but I am just sharing my experiences with you guys as I for once did had to go thru the dilema of not being able to update. It was super duper frustrating.

Just a note:

Have u got both files in your dload folder on the sdcard? ie UPDATE.APP & update.zip (B216)

:PSend from my Ascend Mate via XDA Premium HD:P
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] syaah:
***********Updating Your Mate**********

Do these steps:

1. Download these 2 files:

- B217(or B216) update.zip from here:

http://shuya.eu/downloads/

- UPDATE.APP file from here:

http://db.tt/ZTJSBu9Y

2. Create a folder "dload" in your sdcard and put the 2 dowloaded files:

"update.zip" and "UPDATE.APP" in it.

3. Go to Setting/About Phone/System Updates ->select 'Local Update'

View attachment 2168891

This will bring you to next window ie. "Upgrade"

View attachment 2168892

4. Select 'Back Up' if need to backup prior to update

OR select 'Confirm' to start Upgrade process.

Your mate will shutdown and the update process will proceed into recovery mode and start updating. It will then reboot automatically.

This process will take approximately 10mins.

******************NOTE*****************

>"64GB microsdcard" MAY cause failure in updating, Smaller capacity sdcard is reccomended for updating purposes.

>Ensure Battery charge is above 50%

i wonder where we can download this ROM build for our Mate, MT1-U06v100R001C00B218... :)
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] click2me:
Hi all

first of all, thanks for all the tips here, manage to update my Mate.. i got this phone like 5 days ago.. awesome hardware, great screen estate.. i'm just a bit disappointed because some native Gapps not working very well.. and i really wish they will update us with android 4.2!

---------- Post added at 10:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:02 AM ----------

i'm a bit curious, why would we want to root this phone? may i know for what purpose you guys do root? because, the is no custom ROM/kernel developed for this to utilize the root...
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] ataa_sy:
I'll ask the same..

But I read in german forum of this phone, that the developers can't do anything with locked bootloader :confused:

So no expected coked roms soon :(

Is this right???
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] dandyqb:
some apps required a rooted phone, like greenify, titanium backup,trickster mod,etc...
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] theoppositeman:
Thank syaah.

Yes i do hv both on my sd and in ext sd also.

This is also happen during my update in chinese rom from b116 - b119 which at last i download the full rom and flash new b119. When i change to b112 global rom i also download the full b113 as it is the se problem i faced before.

Well, i guess need to wait someone with full b216/217/218 rom then. Chinese rom b119 is good bit its not my liking also..

In b113 i hv problem with hotspot which i function good at b112 but now seems atuck in b113.

Hi,

Its true that before this generation, previous android version do provide video call buttons but not now. There are some apps as dialer replacement which has video call buttons, and some home replacement launchers also has the button like dx launcher and go launcher if im not mistaken (well, i used to use the launchers in earlier versions but not know todays versions, maybe they hv changed). Keep looking maybe there are some apps that can be use.

I can see that they make custom roms for chinese ascend mate.

Also there is this link where the recovery can change between international and chinese in the honor 2 U9508

(http://forum.xda-dev...d.php?t=2039998) so maybe it can be the same for the mate.

It looks like that the international version of the mate is limited.

Anyone experience the "chinese" possibility or have some informations about what is possible to do?
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] @SRI@:
My personal experience with MT1-U06, I have downgraded to b113 from 216 and upgraded to 217 as some users said in this thread.

Battery drain is more compared to the stock ROM comes along with the phone after update to 217.

So until there is an update available through OTA no need to do a force update.

Coz OEM's know better which region of the world needs which version of upgrade needed.

hi guys

i just rooted and install dpi density changer and reboot my device

now its stuck on bootanimation

I've wipe data and factory reset but it still stuck on bootanimation

please help
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] @SRI@:
Certain density is preconfigured for apps and boot animation of stock roms. Changing density is not suitable for all devices especially for phablets.

Try flashing stock rom of b113 by keeping phone in recovery mode. Search in this thread for stock rom and in the downloaded zip file you will find the flashing instructions.

Stencil buffer failure

I got mine for a few days. :)

I have noticed a annoying problem with some apps. The most popular being Route 66, and my must, XCSoar...:(

No idea about Route 66, but XCSoar is using OpenGL's stencil buffer functions... And fails, resulting in bad graphics. As far as I can see the resulting display, Route 66 should be depending on the same functions.

I have the stock B113 firmware (OTA update). The stencil buffer should be hardware on such a GPU, so the problem is firmware or driver related.

I haven't found a lot of information about this... Any idea if this problem is solved with another ROM?

I might write some test code and dig into the problem... but there might be a less time-consuming option...
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Bartcore3:
I tried some stupid things like the init.d test and the navigation bar toggle (hoping i would get the stoch nav bar because i kind of dislike the HUGE grey bar we have now)

One first problem i had was when i clicked on PMR's (soft)reboot button), When the phone booted i had continuous noise commong from the speakers. Rebooting fixed this again.

So far for my wild adventures :D
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] a user:
Hello, I have some trouble with my new mate.

I first updated it by ota to. 113. Then I used the b217 update zip to update. It worked fine.

Note here : I didn't had the mentioned update.apk. I didn't knew about that at that time. What is that one for?

Anyhow, what's I used eroot to root and that's basically it.

Now after a day the trouble started... While using poweramp music player the phone hour rebooted nearly every second time trying to unlock the phone in the lockscreen. I turned off the poweramp lockscreen substitution and the show album cover. And rebooted cold.

Worked for a day. Then next day it hot rebooted again while screen was off and getting an email.

Later again a hot reboot a few seconds after I turned the screen off while playing music with poweramp again.

And a few hours ago I had it rebooting shortly after turbot screen off, and after turning it on and unlocking.

Any body an idea?

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] @SRI@:
As per my personal experience, i strongly recommend

Update only through OTA when its available since there is not much noticeable difference from 113 to 217.

---------- Post added at 12:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:15 AM ----------

None of the updates mentioned in this thread are official means from huawei site, so it is very long time question that you will get an OTA update to 217.

---------- Post added at 12:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:17 AM ----------

If you strongly want to use home launcher, you try flashing full firmware of 113 as a last option.

I am on international version mate so not interested to run Chinese firmware. So other users may help you on this.

I have already had a bad experience of battery drain after flashing 113 full firmware.

I have flashed 113 since i cant update to 217 without flashing 113.

So its better to wait for OTA updates instead of getting messed up with unwanted updates.

guys, i want to bring something VERY strange to all your attention:

i have not many apps installed for now. but i have it rooted and enabled init.d scripts. i used the cm10.1 init.d script to enable userinit.d scripts (/data/local/userinit.d and userinit.sh). have only a few SELFMADE scripts in there.

now after a day or so i observed that my battery log seems to not work properly anymore. have ONLY android system in the list with 247 DAYs running. and the phone is more or less all the time active, so it claims when clocking on the graph.

i went to /data/local/userinit.d just to make sure i haven't done something wrong. now the strange part:

i saw four files there that i NEVER created:

love

of

the

three

and looking into one of them i saw some chinese letters. the four files were not executable and only rw for user (root).

i'm a little bit scared of this as i have no clue from where the heck these files are caming from. till now i have only installed some of my old apps i previously have backuped by titanium from my old dhd.
