I have installed Google Play apk, Maps, G+, etc, all of them working ok but I can't syncronize Contacts. That's the reason why I'm looking for another rom different from the chinesse.

Thanks!

Thank you! Quite recent. Will try to flash that in the evening. Last time the stock recovery refused to mount my SD card - any hints?
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] der-nickel:
Did not need to flash this because i have a p6 with European Rom. But found a link to this Rom on other forums for P6 and in comments they told, that with this one it's possible to replace the Chinese version. So here you are :) until now i had no need to test the recovery, but i can have a look for this in some national forums. But you can try to place the rom/update in internal memory instead.

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] OriGnalthinker:
I am trying tot update my P6 via Internal memory, how is this possible? Every time I try to update it wants to update from the External memory which I do not have.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] interdan:
How can we get an official thread ?
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] tutmann:
Can you please post a link? The usual upgrade does not work for my chinese P6, because the Version does not match P6-T00 vs. P6-U01. I'd really like to know how to flash it with the euro rom.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] diffstyle:
Been waiting for an official thread also. I don't know why XDA is discriminating against the P6 and not creating one... lol
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Beready:
There's no development for this phone or is bcz it's new ?
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] diffstyle:
Here is the international version, rooted, and streamlined. I'm currently using it.

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] desertflyer:
So the Chinese version is -T00?

Just to clarify, this works with both the Chinese and the UK version?

I just ordered a P6 from Negri Electronics and I'm not sure if it's the UK or Chinese version. I'm in the US. I'm really hoping it already has Google Apps already installed...
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] der-nickel:
I had a look at the german forum where i got the link to the rom. You need to place the update on sd-card.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] OriGnalthinker:

At least for me it's not international, but a modified chinese rom. No Play Store, but AnZhi Store. No non-english, non-chinese keyboards.

And I still have issues with the GPS - it is not working at all.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] diffstyle:
I have the Chinese version of the phone. I installed that international rooted ROM. Even on the Chinese version, i side loaded Google play-store with no problem and rooted the device.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] interdan:
I have this phone for 24 hours, but there is no way to operate the LED notification with missed call,sms,whatsapp,ecc.

It only works in green(battery charge) and red when the battery is low ... someone else has my problem ?

:eek:

problem solved HARD RESET, without backup of google ;)
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] tutmann:
Where do you live? I have no GPS and no 3G data in Germany with my Chinese Version.

Side loaded Play Store and root works fine for me as well.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Eagleman71:
It's a setup problem.

When you first start the phone (when you buy it or when you make a hard reset) got through all the configuration process WITHOUT connecting to the google account. when you are finished the LED will be working also in notifications (green color). so after you can connect the google account. dont ask me why but it works

Battery performance (with 104 version of rom. still have to measure with new 107) in default configuration.

Unplugged from charger at 6:00 AM

Data always active, GPS always active, WiFi active from 8:00 PM

2 hours of ebooks reading

1 hour of phone calls

20/30 sms

100/150 viber/whatsapp messages

100Mb data transfer

5 minutes of facebook every hour

5 pictures a day uploaded for sharing

battery status at 12:00 PM (18 hours) : 5%

So: in my standard usage i can use the phone all the day without needing to charge. So i am fully satisfied. Btw with my ex Galaxy S3 (prematurely dead due to a fall on the stairs) i was having the same performance.

This mobile is on that level of technical performance, has a wonderful looks and it costed me 300 euros (here in Italy).

---------- Post added at 01:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:43 AM ----------

Helpful germans (or chinese) to the rescue. This roots the phone and installs "su" but you need to install busybox separately.

link for you http://4pda.ru/forum/dl/post/3181074/Eroot.exe
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] desertflyer:
Here is a link to Eroot: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B5_iXn5OEHhwUlEwdWdPVFBaZ0k/edit?usp=sharing

1. Go to Settings -> About Phone -> Tap on Build Number a bunch of times to unlock the developer menu

2. Go to Settings -> Developer and enable USB debugging

3. Connect to your computer and select Media Device (MTP) for the connection type

4. Download, extract, and run Eroot on your computer

5. Hit root and let it run. It'll go through a checklist and then magically you'll have Superuser and root

I ran into a problem where I didn't have drivers installed (in this case Eroot doesn't show the "Root" button). For this, instead of MTP select HiSuite run it on your computer. It'll install all the drivers you need and then you'll be able to run Eroot.

Hopefully that's helpful to someone.

3G reboots

F... unbelievable, this thing randomly reboots while on 3G same as the Ascend G300 that i owned. Ascend G510 didn't have this problem.

I just got my second P6, first one was really badly put together so they replaced it for me, the new one same as the old one reboots randomly while on 3G. This is just too much, think im going to return this crap and go for Sony Xperia SP instead.

Anyone else with random 3G reboots ?

I am not having any random reboots thusfar. To be more precise, I am not having any problems. Hope you will get it fixed asap!

Also I would love to see more development for this phone, that would make it even more awesome....

Thank you for this. Quick question for you though, how did you compile this theme? How do you actually open a .hwt file and change items on it? Thanks.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] khakala:
Use ThemeUITool which you can find after you have install HiSuiten from your phone to your computer.

(Select HiSuite alternative when you connect your phone to computer by USB)

Hi guys, I bought this phone today and just have a couple of gripes....

The max volume on the mp3's in the music player and tones in generally aren't very loud...is it just me or do you guys think the same?

NO LOCKSCREEN WIDGETS!!! - well not that I can see anyway. I've been looking everywhere and they aren't in the settings menu. I've googled and I can't find anymore information. Can anyone confirm please as I thought this is running 4.2.2 so surely the option is there? I tried to use dash lockscreen but I can't get it working comfortably.

Thanks guys.

so anyone found any solution for low media playback volume in earphones?? its just :eek: how quiet it is. i can speak with person next to me like normaly when i have the original earphones on max volume music playing is that normal LOL
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] desertflyer:
The headphones that come with the phone leave a lot to be desired. You could try playing with the Dolby Digital Plus settings as some of them seem to make the volume a bit louder. I have some Klipsch ear buds and the volume is loud enough even when walking down a busy street.

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] TheProd:
Add "ro.config.vc_call_vol_steps=10" to the build.prop (10 = 10%), restart an call any number (e.g. 9999), now increase the volume with vol up.

The headphone volume should be louder ;)

If you go to the previous page, there's P6 "telecom" version listed which is C00.

Here's a baidu mirror which is a bit faster. This is actually for the "unicom" version (U00).

Can anyone upload the b115 update to some other site? Because the one posted above is sooooooo slow :(

Thanks!

I now have my phone downloading from the other site and my pc downloading from the other. Hopefully I'll get it soon :)
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] palooh81:
unicom is a U00 NOT U06
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Barleyman:
You are right!

The url is "http://zh.ui.vmall.com/emotiondownload.php?type=P6-U06" which is misleading. Ok, so that is for the chinese telecom version which I assume we don't want.

The other one is "telecom" called P6-C00. There shouldn't be too much risk of bricking the device either way I hope..
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Barleyman:
Well, so much for assumptions. Generic C00 version won't flash while unicom U00 does without complaints.

To recap, flash procedure is to copy the dload-folder with the file to the root of the SD card. Then either run update from settings-> system or hold volume up + down while starting phone for 5 sec.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] desertflyer:
How many variants of the phone are there? U06, U00, T00, C01 and C00? Seems like a lot.

Here is a mirror of U00 B115:

WiFi hotshot seems to be really bad in firmware b115. I can't keep connected right next to the phone. Another phone works no problem.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Urmet77:
ok i havent tryed thetering yet will try sometimes soon
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] desertflyer:
That's strange. The hotspot works pretty well for me with b115.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Barleyman:
Did you just try it quickly or actually try using eg tablet with it for a while? I get disconnected all the time + lousy signal quality. But you can load Web page or something before it cuts out. I swapped the sim card into Xperia S which serves as a hotspot no problem. Ditto for old desire Z
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] desertflyer:
I just tried it for 30 minutes and had no problems. Strong signal and great speeds. I'm using T-mobile USA.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] palooh81:
Anyone got CWM or TWRP installed on their P6, cant find anything. Would make my life so much easier if i could use one of them.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Barleyman:
Well, YMMV. I used cheapo Chinese tablet with not-great wifi reception that really struggled to keep connection with P6 hotspot. A laptop with much better wifi reception didn't have the same issues. This is using both within line of sight.

When I switch over to Xperia S hotspot the Chinese tablet works ok in another room.

I tried factory reset on the P6 which killed the notification menu caused some other issues but helped a little on the hotspot. Before it was completely unusable, after reset just really bad.

device looks much better finished even Galaxy S IV ! It's a good device for this price ! :good:
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] zordo:
Great news about the own topic and roms. Ill be getting my p6 sometime next week but i guess i wont be installing custom roms until they are rock stable. Although if I get bored, custom roms tend to be on my to do list.

Itll be nice to see if the larger screen will have a positive effect on typing as my thumbs are enormous :). And if the p6 doesnt seem to be worth the money as an upgrade to GS im going to return it.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Beready:
I can't wait this news come fall down from Heaven, love this phone and his design.

Like I said many times before it's just a shame they didn't give us 4G and some other next gen features from the start .... ONce they will come out with a 4G and some other new features as NFC, mybe 1080p (not really bottleneck for me bcz everything higher I wonder you can see on smartphone screen of 4.7inches), ....

I will get me back a HUAWEI as long they keep the design as good as this one, there sure lot of ppl who also look at the design and how they feel about their phone. I always loved phones who look good as my first Xperia arc I loved that design it was also very thin and the curve made it lay in your hand very good, the Xperia T was too heavy ...

But I can't wait till you developers get their hands on this phone, bcz I also love the work you put in and make it even a better phone to have !
