Thanks!!!

I live - and bought mine - in Holland (the Netherlands).

I downloaded firmware too but when in download mode and with SD card in, the update stops ("Update failed").

How did your rom/firmware come trough? By updating from sd card or by downloading update directly from sd card?

Which firmware or rom did you download?
[General Questions and Answers] saleemafaq:
Ask Huawei support center

Hi,

First is there no support center for Huawei in your area ? In my case i got the mobile as gift from china and since this model G525 is not launched in my country, the support center refused on any support regarding firmware, so i went to chinese site http://consumer.huawei.com/cn/ and got the firmware from there, my previous firmware was B180 and then i updated it to B191 (currently available on china site).

Second where did you download the firmware from ? Because when i was trying to install the firmware from europe or us etc, (main reason the contacts least string match issue) , i could not find any firmware file on those sites, i went through all the sites, I even emailed german support , and they refused that they don't have any firmware, duh, because my mobile IMEI was not in their data base , (no ****), i do manage to find one posted by someone while going throw forums, but it failed to install, which lead me to believe i need bootunlock code

As for the update is concerned, I am not sure what are you asking about updating from SD card or downloading from SD card ? The only method Huawei G525 have is to download file to computer, extract it, put the update folder in the formatted sd card and then start the phone with volume keys so it start downloading file from sd card and then update firmware. Even the option from the settings to update firmware requires the same, just that , phone start itself in download mode and start the same process.

Like i said i don't have a specific answer why the update is failing, but most probably because the firmware you are trying to install does not support the current you have, I don't know why the hell they would put a restriction in update package to lock down it with previous firmware region. Since you might not know which firmware you previously had the new one might not support the old version, like B191 requires to have B182 or higher version, (wtf) mine came with B180, and there is no B182 or higher available for download, so it could be your phone has old firmware, not supported by current, so all i can say is better take it to customer service, and ask them for help,

and the method i mentioned is was just hit and trial, i was just desperate, so i kept phone pushing to update it.

Let me know if you find any better solution or how to install other firmwares

BASED ON CM9.1.0 - A70 USERS MUST WAIT A LITTLE THAT I CONFIGURE THE KERNEL (board configuration file)

For A101, just the TS doesn't worked

For A43, it must work, i need a confirmation...

I hope that links works, it's the first time that i use google to share something...

You must have:

-an Archos gen8 A43--A70-A70S2Froyo-A101 OR an A70S2 HoneyComb version (must work perfectly....i hope)

-a little times to report bugs to fix ;)

How install it:

-Copy-paste the image uncompress and the menu.lst files in the root of the INTERNAL sdcard of your tab (SDE menu -> mount card)

-RENAME THE KERNEL LIKE THIS: zImage (to delete .img)

-update the kernel and the initramfs.cpio.gz (SDE Menu)

-COPY AND PASTE A NEW DATA_IMAGE (data_ICS.img like previous version)

-you can install Gapp by copy and paste my Gapp (see my post in dev section about Cyanobiz) in "download" folder in /mnt/storage/

What's news:

-a new kernel based on 2.6.37 from Gen9 (HC device)

-PVR Driver update and dss compopsition activated

-New BT driver

-New Wifi driver (but little pb with it)

-compiled with ics toolchain from archos (optimised for their devices)

DON'T TRY THIS KERNEL WITH ANOTHER FIRMWARE/ROM!!

TO FIX:

-little pb with wifi, it cannot find any wifi

YOU MUST ENTER THE PARAMETERS MANUALLY TO CONNECT YOU TO YOUR WIFI!! (dhcp semi-works)

-DLNA/UPNP CRASH the wifi, don't use it :)

-USB Sharing - MTP?? (windows XP see something about MTP driver that it cannot install it, but i haven't any seven at home to try....) NEED TESTERS

-SOMETIMES the initramfs doesn't started, black screen after the first "archos" screen, just press 10sec power on to reboot (don't know how fix it, no debug)

-I HAVE OC THE DSP FOR A70S2 (froyo and HC version) to 880, says me if your tab freeze. The CPU is to 1.2GHz, i have no problem

RESERVED FOR FUTURE POST again
[Gen8 Android Development] bizcuite:
I need an a70s2 HONEYCOMB Version tester please.

To see if I must change the memory used in my kernel.

If it doesn't worked for them, I must rewrite their board file.

One thing is sure, archos had planned to update our tab with HC, hardware evolution has killed this. :)

Bizcuite
[Gen8 Android Development] Porobu:
Tried the new release on my A70S. Tab doesnt boot, it loops on archos screen. It turns on, screen goes black and the archos screen appears again
[Gen8 Android Development] Mikerla:
Same tablet same result looping on Archos screen after about 10 sec black screen. Cant get adb to work.
[Gen8 Android Development] mika67:
1.) Installation after default accomplished. AOS menu was indicated, system is started. First start lasted longer. Presently the touch Screen does not know operated (now reaction, also after restarting I cannot operate the starting screen).

Enclosed the kernellog1.txt file.
[Gen8 Android Development] bizcuite:
OK,

I have seen this in the dmesg share by Mika:

<6>[ 0.310455] platform mpu.0: OPP enabled 1200 MHz

Your tab is OC to 1.2GHz, i will pass to 1GHz to see if it's better.

A101 will have no problem to have an ICS with this kernel, it's a good news.

For A70 i will release another kernel to see if the frequency is the problem.

Wait this evening for another kernel (1.2GHz step will be activated for A70S2 only)

Bizcuite
[Gen8 Android Development] bizcuite:
I have tried myself the kernel:

platform mpu.0: OPP enabled 800 MHz

[ 0.305603] platform iva.0: OPP enabled 660 MHz

[ 0.305725] platform iva.0: OPP enabled 660 MHz

[ 0.305755] platform mpu.0: OPP enabled 1000 MHz

[ 0.305786] platform iva.0: OPP enabled 800 MHz

[ 0.305816] a70s2_opp_init: MPU does not support 1200 MHz

Can you try and report of it's better please? A43 can try too.

Just rename it zImage and install with initramfs in the first post.

FOR MIKA:

Can you try to have adb working to have a real debug, your system starts (first starts is normal, all news apps are verify).

when you have adb, just tape adb shell dmesg or dmesg directly if are connected on your tab please?

I will see if it's a pb of file or a problem of driver.

And try with one, and 2 fingers if you have any reaction?

Bizcuite
[Gen8 Android Development] mika67:
ok,

the new update starts very fast.

I come up to the starting screen with the lock symbol.

I cannot unblocking however the screen. No reaction to my finger movements (neither with 1/2 of finger).
[Gen8 Android Development] bizcuite:
Ok thanks. But have you got adb installed on your computer?

It will be very usefull.

But i think that no ts drivers are installed.

I will modify the board configuration, because many ts has been configured into.

Bizcuite
[Gen8 Android Development] mika67:
Excuse for my question.

Which you mean with adb ? :confused:
[Gen8 Android Development] Porobu:
Android debug bridge, part of android sdk
[Gen8 Android Development] mika67:
I worked never with adb. Sorry

But, if me explained like I it activate / use someone, no problem.

I will then try it

Edit:

OK,

adb neither on Win 7/Linux computer is installed.

You mean over console on archos access (Google is your friend)

Edit 2:

no, if I attach archos to the computer, I can access not archos(with the new system)

Big problem
[Gen8 Android Development] bizcuite:
For USB drivers

http://www.archos.com/support/support_tech/updates_adb.html?country=us&lang=en

For how to use it and have adb.exe with dll (command)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1387527

You must open a Windows terminal and go to the path of adb .exe

and tape

adb shell dmesg

if your adb is correctly configured, you must have a debug (don't forget to connect the tab ;) )

:)

EDIT: Huum memory model is not good for A70.

A70 USERS MUST WAIT A LITTLE, BECAUSE THEIR BOARD CONFIGURATION FILE IN THE KERNEL IS NOT COMPLETED.

I will try another thing
