www.mediafire.com/?cb05326rb78f5po Someone linked this full B038 ROM earlier, I haven't tested it myself, but I assume it's okay. Keep working with B021 for now though, cause I'll be interested to see how that turns out, and my OTA update (at least) to B038 was not very helpful. I still blame B025 for that though!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdcrispe95:
Ah, I'll give that a download and see where I go with that. For now I'll keep progressing with the B021 ROM.

Changed the boot animation to something pretty damn cool.

Also integrated whatsapp, Facebook and Facebook messenger. Just for those who like social networking
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnnyfive73:
B038

Yes I uploaded the B038 and I have my phone running on this update it works fine and also gives us 4g when its switched on, please do you magic on B038, point to note B038 is very easy on the battery.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _wolfpup:
Cool stuff. Oh, hmm.

What about Twitter and Skype?

Also thinking AdAway, cause a lot of people don't know it is still around.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdcrispe95:
Twitter is already integrated by default :)

I'll look into skype and AdAway

Anyone had any luck decompiling systemUI.apk and making them changes?

Bugs so far:

- process.android.acore has stopped working pops up occasionally.. -Root issue-

- Android not installing all APKs upon flashing

- 1 of the 2 launchers skip steps during the setup guide

- Not able to access recovery unless I boot the phone up and type "Adb reboot recovery" (Quite a major bug, ill try fix this one 1st)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ju4np4:
I've tried the rom, I can't write this in the other post.

The 4G works without problems (Spain), but whatsapp closes unexpectedly.

I miss a statusbar with the typical icons, wifi, data, bluetooth, etc.

I don't like Smart Launcher, I would prefer a pure android launcher only.

That's all, thanks for your work! ;)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdcrispe95:
Thanks for letting me know about the Whatsapp bug.

You can fix it by rooting the phone, going to /system/app and deleting the whatsapp APK there, then just re-install from the Play Store.

I'll look into putting a stock android launcher in there, did you try the other launcher? there should be 2.

No problem, this is my 1st ROM so I'll take any constructive criticism haha.

I hope you're enjoying my ROM.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anekdoto:
Hi there. I have to say that only the twrp version you provide can be flashed and will work. I tried a lot of others versions and in no one could i boot into recovery. However i have a problem. Twrp asks me for a password which i have never setted up.

Now i can't do factory reset or format or wipe data.It says about encrypted partition. I can only boot into twrp recovery and do nothing. Also i can establish a fastboot connection with the pc but not a adb connection. I can't ebable adb sideload.

Any help???

Please i am new to flashing a custom rom. If you want me to provide any other info feel free to ask.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdcrispe95:
You have to flash TWRP 2.7.1.0 which I uploaded HERE

With TWRP you can wipe all data which will remove the encryption on your phone. Then you can flash the older version of TWRP if you choose and flash the ROM.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anekdoto:
wow

WOW you are great. Finally i managed to wipe data and remove encryption. It works like a charm.

One more question. I tried to install the omni rom so i had to flash a huawei ascend p6 firmware. Unfortunately i don't have signal as it is mentioned. Withount signal phone is useless to me.

I want to flash your rom. Should i return to p2 firmware first??

If yes how can i do this? I downloaed huawei update multiloader. in firmware box should l put a ascend p2 firmare? Where can i find it?

Please help me to restore the phone and sorry for so many questions.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdcrispe95:
You can go straight to my firmware aslong as you completely remove the omni rom using TWRP. (So wipe everything basically)

You can flash back the original firmware by flashing the stock recovery, Stock recovery I uploaded for you HERE

After you have the stock recovery, use the Huawei MultiLoader tool to flash the stock firmware zip back to the phone.

Multiloader, I have uploaded HERE for you.

Stock firmware B021 can be downloaded from THIS THREAD

If you need any more help, just let me know.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anekdoto:
First of all thank you for the uploads. They are very helpful.

So i wiped out everything and flashed your rom. It really looks very nice. Nice work there and it's a pity you will not continue. How did you manage to brick your phone?

I have issue with your rom too. I have no signal. Tried with 2 different sims which i can confirm that they are fully working.

Do you have any idea about this?

Also the B021 stock firmware isn't online any more. Maybe you have it and can sometime upload it?

Thank you for the help till now.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdcrispe95:
It's not a case of the phone being bricked, it's a motherboard problem. My phone has always been kind of finnicky.

The issue started with me not being able to go into recovery unless i told the phone to reboot into recovery via ADB.. same goes for the bootloader.

Then my sound would only work sometimes.

Then the light sensor broke (which forced the phone on minimum brightness all the time)

Yeah.. the phone wasn't in good shape and recently it just completely crashed whilst in a skype call and now refuses to turn on.

As for the uploads, no problem mate :) I like to help out where I can.

As for having no signal with my ROM.. did you do a full wipe before installing my ROM?

Are you in a different country than the UK?

Is anyone else getting this issue?

Thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anekdoto:
Bad to hear that. The rom looks very promising. So to my issue now.

I did a full wipe then installed your rom. I see that imei is unknown and after a little google search i realized that this maybe is the cause that sim isn't recognized. I live in Greece. Do you think that it's a problem?

Is there any way to restore somehow the imei?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdcrispe95:
I would recommend you flash back to the stock ROM to see if your IMEI gets restored. My rom is based off of the B021 update (UK) so it could potentially be an issue.

Flash the stock recovery and then use Multiloader to flash the stock firmware.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anekdoto:
The problem is that i don't have a stock rom. The link you provided doesn't contain the rom anymore.

Maybe you have another link?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anekdoto:
I finally return with good news. My phone is again fully working. I managed to find some stock roms and the imei restored and now my sim card is recognized. Signal came back of course.

I tried few stock roms like B037, B038, B039 and B044.

All roms were working fine except B038 where bottom buttons didn't work at all.

I had an issue with the camera i think it had worse quality but maybe it's just my idea.

However i flashed again twrp and then flashed crisperom.It's working fine till now except one thing. In play store when i choose to install an app i get a message error but if i press again to install the procedure goes fine. It doesn't happen all the time so i don't care.

Signal strength is much better. I now have signal in all over the house. (my stock rom was B017)

At the moment i am configuring the phone and get some old apps again. I will post if i find any bugs.

Huge thanks for the help. Without you i would forget about my phone and now it works great!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdcrispe95:
Great! Glad to hear you're all setup and working. As for the play store, my new phone experiences that bug too and it's running stock everything. I think it's a problem on googles front rather than the rom. I hope you enjoy using the rom as much as I enjoyed making it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anekdoto:
OK so will see if the problem will be still there after a few days.

Can you provide any links so i can study and maybe edit the rom? I found very interesting the procedure till now and i would like to learn some more things.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdcrispe95:
I used:

Huawei Update Extractor

Android Kitchen

7Zip

apktool

Notepad++

ICS JB EXT4 Imagefile Unpacker

I'll try and upload some off the other stuff I used, I'm not at my PC at the moment.

Unfortunately my new phone has a locked bootloader so I won't be creating any ROMs for my Z1C anytime soon. :(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anekdoto:
Thanks for the info! Will study when have free time and will try to modify or create a rom.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdcrispe95:
If you modify mine, the zip file is easily accessible and moddable (will save you going through the long process of decompiling Huawei's update.app). As-long as you just put my name somewhere giving me credit for the initial work I do not mind. Good luck.

Hopefully this thread is still live.

Hi all,

apologies in advance as I am a complete noob....

I tried to flash a rom using p2 tools... now all I have is the teamwin programme when I press power , vol up vol down.

Inside this, it says i cant mount external sd and also when i go to reboot it says "no os installed"

Searching around on here, I downloaded adb and fastboot but my device is not recognised... the only command it lets me do is fastboot reboot.

Can anyone help me out with the p2-6011 drivers/or what to do next, as currently its just a nice coaster on my desk..

Thanks for anyones help in advance :)

Hello,

Could anyone help me.

I have a Huawei Ascend P2 but it stuck on logo screen "Huawei Ascend".

I entered the recovery by pressing "Vol +, Vol-, On/Off" buttons, and I wiped both cash and data user (rest), but it did not solve the problem. When I treid to apply update from SD card, I got an error "failed to mount mount E: /SDcard".

I can not also turn off the phone. If I pressed the On/Off butoon for long time, it switches off for a second and then reboot again and stuck on logo screen.

Any Ideas how to solve the problem?!! Please help ?!!

Thanks.

Also, if you need your IMEI number, it's on the inside of your SIM door (the little flap that you take off to put your SIM card in).. I originally thought for some reason this may be the bootloader unlock code. LOL

---------- Post added at 11:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:08 PM ----------

In fact try unroofing your device then re root after. The normal procedure is unlocking bootloaders then root. Hope this helps . keep us updated. I check this thread regularly. How long did you wait for boot loader unlock?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdcrispe95:

I took out a new contract for the z (Gave the P2 to my Daughter, it's more than enough for her needs)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suburbadroid:
If you've had your phone longer than 14 days they won't refund it. No harm in trying though. I'm going to hold onto mine. I'm sure huawei will eventually unlock the bootloader
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdcrispe95:
Ah, thank you for your replies mate.

I've had mine for about 3 months lol

its just dissapointing that they locked the bootloader in the 1st place. I'm sure someone will eventually create some sort of bypass / hack for the bootloader.

I've already managed to get CWM6 recovery on there using the p2tools.apk linked earlier, but from there on I can't do anything (Can't even install the damn update that Huawei pushed out to my phone because of some asset check)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suburbadroid:
I think its the chipset they use is why its proving hard to unlock boot loader. Not sure tho as I'm no developer. I'm in same boat as you. Got cwm on but can't apply the update even after unroot. Due to missing system files. They said the kindle fires boot loader wouldn't be unlocked but someone managed it. I got my p2 end of sept too so I'm going to keep it. (Contracted through three) not a bad phone at all. Just needs better software available. A custom ROM could be created based on the original kernel if I'm not wrong.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AngelBob:
Can someone post the update files? I've not got an update notification.

I still have the P2 so will work a little more on it.

As for chipset etc. That's going to be the hardest bit to crack as its huawei's own chipset
