hi

yes, i'm using still the CWM 5.5.0.4 by MTK DROID TOOL ( RUA1 automatic porting ) and since it's stable, reliable and working very well there is no really reason for me to change it, at least this is my personal opinion...

Using

Titanium PRO version

I converted some SYSTEM & chinese apks INTO user apks.....usually if titanium gives you this option, and he succeed in converting those un-needed apks...then you have still the apks on your mobile but with possibility to disinstall it simply tapping on it and move it to the trash....and the ROM stability it's 99% not comprimised since titanium already did this check prior to convert ....

the PRO version it's a great app everybody should have bought and installed...especially in this new kitkat phase, we are all esperimenting the changes and without titanium would be a "guessing" what can be remove / uninstall and what not...being ready to flash everything if rom stability is comprimised....

talking about kitkat gapps....well....our honor has a 8GB total internal space.

those 8GB are splitted into:

A) around 1GB of space reserved for the Operating System installation, not visible and untouchable

B) an internal SYSTEM ROM, reserved and not accessible without ROOT, where part of the rom itself,

system/app

,

system/priv-app

, and other components of O.S. are installed

C) rest of the

INTERNAL phone space

colled usually INTERNAL SDCARD or INTERNAL STORAGE SPACE, to be used as the users wish....

Now, back to some practical explainations on Gapps, I would like to show you how my honor looks like this morning after KITKAT installation:

[IMG="SYSTEM REPARTITION_Huawei Honor 3X_KitKat"]http://s26.postimg.org/doyip7l6h/Screenshot_Titanium.jpg[/IMG]

you can see into my phone the B- SYSTEM ROM it's around 1.3GB and it's nearly full....only 137MB free remaining

The C- INTERNAL SDCARD still have space no problem, but you can also see I have a 32GB external SDCARD ...so no really problem for storage files, video , pictures etc etc

back to the point is that the B-SYSTEM ROM is running out of space, this means that KITKAT absorbed a lot of space, and if you install the full google gapps into this B partition you probably will get a error message and a failure....

what I wanna say is that apks like GMAIL, GOOGLE CHROME BROWSER, MAP, and so on can be downloaded directly from the PLAYSTORE and installed normally OUT OF THE "B" partition.......

What is mandatory to have installed into the SYSTEM ROM are some apks for the google contacts sync, calendar sync and some others.....but not the rest.....

this is how I installed the kitkat gapps, customizing the installation.....and I did it getting still 137MB free space for some potential apks I will need to install in teh future ( not really many apks need to be installed in the SYSTEM ROM )

for the user who has the B611 version and want to upgrade to KitKat, I don't know what you have installed as gapps into the B611...so I can't really prepare a package to be flashed on the KitKat O.S without knowing this.....but keep in mind that what you will need to have contacts and calendar perfectly sync are the following attached apks into those folders:

system/app = see attached ZIP file with apks inside....root your phone and then move those apks into system/app with rootexplorer, then apply permission RW-R-R on every apks and reboot

system/priv-app = see attached ZIP file with apks inside....root your phone and then move those apks into system/priv-app with rootexplorer, then apply permission RW-R-R on every apks and reboot

Hope this is helping someone....

cheers

PS: for those who upgarde from B611 to kitkat don't forget to remove the immutable.list file with the process described already, see my post #152 how to do it:
