I would agree with you but take a look at this : http://www.ti.com/general/docs/wtbu...entId=4711&navigationId=12494&templateId=6123

Clearly that is not the chip used because this device support 802.11n while the WL1251 chip does not support that standard so WL1251 is clearly not used even if the drivers are there.

A dmesg would be more conclusive, but make sure to turn wifi off then on then run dmesg if you can.

Yep :)

Edit: PM'd you. :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdcrispe95:
Good news for everyone: Just PM'd Angelbob all the files he requested. Hopefully we'll have something soon, I just want to thank Angelbob for investing his time into this.

As for my boot-loader.. I'm still waiting on huawei to tell me why they sent me a fake code, but who knows. (The code isn't my SIM unlock code either)

I would like to recommend Smart Launcher instead of the emotion UI. I believe its much easier and better to use.

Please post any updates regarding the Ascend P2 here since from what I can tell this is the most active thread on the Ascend P2.

Thank you so much for all your cooperation. :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AngelBob:
I should have a working cwm pack later tonight. Still can't figure out why the update won't work as it is.

I've also managed to figure out the update servers url so can now check for updates without the phone
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdcrispe95:
SWEET! Progress.

I'll edit the OP and put the quote from you.

Thank you for all your hard work Angelbob.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AngelBob:
Well, after looking with fresh eye's my faith in Huawei just hit rock bottom.

You know this update they are pushing...

Well here's the FIRST two lines from the update script....

mount("ext4","EMMC","/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/system", "/system");
mount("ext4","EMMC","/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/cust", "/cust");

mmm, OMAP!!!! I think not, That's not even for the P2

Should be

mount("ext4","EMMC","/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.1/by-name/system", "/system");
mount("ext4","EMMC","/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.1/by-name/cust", "/cust");

Ah well, the saga continues, I do have a feeling that this update just won't work though.

Here's the email I just sent them:

A little more of an update...

I now don't think this update was intended for the P2-6011 given I've just seen this in what will become the build.prop: HuaweiP2-6012C00B017
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AngelBob:
Here's a little bash script for checking HUAWEI for updates:

Place the update.app into /sdcard/dload then use the system update app and check for a local update.

It applies ok, however I didn't see any difference as its still 4.1.2

I've finally managed to get my hands on the FULL P2-6011V100R001C00B021 update.

I'm uploading it to copy.com (may take a while), then I'm going to start work on a app to apply some tweaks as needed, a full rom seems a little pointless right now.

As for feedback from Huawei I've not heard a thing about the faulty B025 update.

I believe having the BO25 update is fine, as Angelbob said there's not too much different, it's still android 4.1.2

Feel free to say I'm wrong haha
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _wolfpup:
Um, sure, I may as well. :)

BO25 seemed to take away options, and I cannot prove it, but I think the camera is worse since that update. :crying:

I would be surprised if that is all that is wrong with that OFFICIAL update... Huawei, get your **** together! :mad:

Is it possible to downgrade?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdcrispe95:
Its ****ed my camera, my camera can't catch the right focus, it keeps getting perfect then the camera makes a "click" sound and completely defocuses .. also the flash sometimes works and sometimes doesn't.. also my phone now doesn't like to lock when i press the power button (super annoying)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _wolfpup:
Yeah it's BS, my pictures are also very grainy now, it was way better with BO17, I haven't tried BO21 yet.

Also yeah, mine has similar locking issues on BO25, bleh.

the B025 "update" has definitely done something to my camera, the picture quality has decreased significantly especially when trying to take a picture of a piece of paper with writing on it (e.g. a letter or a drawing) there's a lot of "fuzziness" in the picture and it isn't really pleasant to look at at all.

I hope this helps and I really hope this can be fixed... I'm having to take pictures in 5MP instead of the 13 its rated for because at 13 it just looks horrible..

Hello guys

I recently got a Ascend P2 and I cannot get it to work in LTE... it discovers only 2G and 3G networks.

Is there any fix for this ?

Thanks in advance !

(I am in Denmark, over Telenor network)

Edit: Found out how to do it:

in the phone keypad, enter *#*#2846579159#*#*

A hidden menu will pop out, in which you can select "4G first", in "network setting", "network mode set"

I am running B028SP01 firmware by the way.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _wolfpup:
Can you take some photos with the phone's camera, and upload them for us? We don't have BO28 here yet, and I am curious as to if Huawei fixed the camera... It was fine on BO17, and I think BO21 too, but after updating to BO25 it made all the photographs and videos fuzzy.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdcrispe95:
I need to get my hands on this B025 firmware.. sounds like it actually improves something instead of smashed a wrecking ball through my phone lol .. B021 messed up my camera, RAM usage (always above 85% now), performance, boot time (a lot slower than before) and just general stability of the phone. Instead of feeling like im running on a 1.5Ghz Quad core chip I feel like im running on a 800Mhz single core.. its horrible
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _wolfpup:
Are you still here dude?

---------- Post added at 01:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:44 PM ----------

Maybe there is a fixed version of the update, or maybe since your phone was sent for repairs they updated it, then fixed the camera and other known bug themselves. I do not know, but BO25 is what messed up my camera though for sure.

It went from BO17 straight to BO25, it messed up my camera, and helped nothing! I wish I had not have updated, but I have no way of going back to what it was before, even if that was far from perfect.

I am hoping that we can have our own custom ROM for this phone, or at least some system patches of sorts, to get it working as well as it should. This is a quad core 1.5GHz phone, and sometimes, it really does feel like a single core 800Mhz one as you said. It's not right, Huawei and Three need to get their **** together!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t34team:
So, as far we know, once the firmware has been updated (like to B028SP01 in my case) there is no way to go back ?

Not even a way to downgrade the baseband/modem firmware ? (like it is possible on all Samsung phones with Odin) ?

Cheers.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _wolfpup:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _wolfpup:

I was trying to get information on updates since September, absolutely no response or acknowledgement of any kind, waste of f-ing time! Have you had any luck in reaching them?

Yeah, same, it is running bloody terrible. The mobile data connection keeps cutting out/freezing, requiring me to turn airplane mode on and off to get it working properly again, it does this at least 3 times per day...Hah... Three, how typical, although I am sure it is the phone at fault. Still backlight problems, still camera problems, still no updates! Why?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdcrispe95:
The most I've recieved from huawei is a fake bootloader unlock code and another email telling me that they cocked up and there is no bootloader unlock code.

What a pile of piss!

Huawei if you're reading this I swear to god I didn't pay £315 for a half arsed quad core phone with a 13mp camera that might aswell be 1.3mp because the quality is so bad!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heas Heartfire:
I don't know how to fix it, but I can tell you how to avoid it. I had the same problem in December and what I did was send the smartphone to the shop where I bought it for repair it.

The smartphone hasn't any external SD Card slot and there's no solution to this problem, only change the motherboard.

For the next time, to avoid any problem, put in your internal SD the UPDATE.APP in /dload to flash it trough the stock recovery and repair any damaged file in the system. Or make a flashable zip containing the system files to recover them.

Well, at least I think there's no solution. I hope that there're anyone who know something more than me about this problem. Sorry for my probably bad english xD

When i got the unit new for approx $200 AUD it was Sim unlocked but with Telstra apps and Telstra Boot animation. Nice phone, here's a few things Ive done to it..

*Root

*Replace Telstra Boot Animation for stock Huawei

*Remove Telstra apps and bloatware.

*Enabled LTE by default through the ProjectMenuAct *#*#2846..... etc

*Enabled Online Themes for download by editing the Settings.db with SQLite

*Removed Temperature.apk so the screen doesn't dim automatically :mad:

*Installed P2Tools.apk for clearing Dalvik/cache and running a backup

*Increased the ringer volume by editing the Settings.db with SQLite
