Google+ stopped.. Play Store says no connection. That's all yet. And some apps were force closing at the beginning that I didn't really see what they were 'cause Viber popped up and ruined everything. :D All of my apps/games that were installed are all here. Except the ones were in the folder something like Google applications. That folder is gone. I don't know what was in it, as I think I never opened it... :D

Weird.. I don't even have Google+ app.. How did it stopped?

JEEESUS!

I changed the theme back to Pure that I was using and got two new pages.. There is the G+ app,: App Center, Chrome, Driving Mode, File Manager (that was on my home screen before), Photos, Game Center, Google (??? An empty icon), Google Settings, Google+, Voice Search, Local, HiCare (what's that?), Notes, Log Tool (?), Navigation, Play Books, Play Newsstand, Play Music, Phone Manager, Video, Vmall (?), Voice Assistant, Baidu (?).
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] warea:
Yes google apps are not present in Chinese firmwares. There are topics here and here, which you can read through for seeing user reviews of those who flashed this rom.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Epsylon:
I have already updated it. After the 4.4 update it says that it's P6-U00..
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] warea:
Does the google store work now ? If it does, then you are lucky. If you do a factory reset, you will lose gapps and you will end up doing some complex methods to get full functional gapps.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Epsylon:
No, it's not working. I can open it, but it says no connection.

Hmm.. I made a restart.. Doesn't boot up. I'm watching the Huawei logo for about ten minutes now.

I had to reflash it.. Now all my apps and Google apps gone. Luckily I have backups of everything. But it is strange that at the first restart it dies at the boot logo. Now I made a fast restart again to see if it's a permanent issue, but now it booted up without any problems.. So, looks like we must flash it on a wiped ROM.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] richish:
1. instaled via stock recovery

2. flashed TWRP 3.1 to get google apps ( every thing is working )

3. rooted with TWRP

using for 4.4.2 for 1 day.

UDNavbar is not working ( hate stock navbar. Any idea how to resize it or make UDNavbar work ? )

What about exposed framework???

phone is rooted. SU is crashing but premissions work.

Signal is better

No wifi drops

Battery life ,i think, is better

dint test any game yet will test in some min.

Antutu had 15k but is was on low signal ! Will try again NOW.

EDIT

On second run antutu score is 16.5 k

Look like gaming is better to.

And my phone model has been changed from P6-U06 to P6-U00 !!!! ???WHY ????
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Epsylon:
Oh.. Lucky one! I had battery drain like 50% in an hour. So I'm flashing a B125 ROM. After flashing this 4.4 on it again, the little arrow to hide navbar gone. So, I don't like it anymore. I had a backup of settings (from here XDA) that had the option to hide navbar, but the phone said that that's not compatible with it anymore.. Fuuu... And the percentage display of the battery also gone. I didn't like the new File Manager. Everything else was fine for that one hour I was testing it. Maybe later I'll test it again. The floating apps stuff is really cool! :D
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] warea:
The Chinese firmware have the hide navigation bar option in setting itself. No need to use that backup file tool. As for battery percentage, then you have choice to enable or disable it from settings>battery, in emui2.0/2.3.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Epsylon:
I'm on 4.4 again. I updated it now from B125 and didn't had any issues after restart like I had after updating from B107. Battery drain is still faster than at the 4.2 ROMs (8% in an hour with screen off, wifi on, didn't use it at all). I can confirm that Wi-Fi signal is stronger! This time I had all the previous apps/games that I had before the update. Didn't had to change theme to find them. Google applications are all there that I had on 4.2. They just don't work. :D

So.. I recommend to update to B125 and then update to KitKat. If we are talking about P6-U06. The device id changed to P6-U00 this time too. So I think it will change to that, no matter what was the ROM I came from.

For me it seems like that the processing speed is circa 20% faster, but the touch sensitivity became worst.

Am I the only one who thinks that the icons are a bit bigger than in 4.2?

Wake up is way faster! A half a second. It took one and a half to lit up the screen in 4.2.

Sound with the original headset is terrible. Traveling on a bus I did not hear anything! So I still have to use my ducttaped SonyEricsson push-it-in-brain headset..

I just hate the Cloud/Local view in the File Manager.. The Local/SD was far better.

The location service (or whatever) is always turned off on all of my devices. On this one too. And in every quarter hours I get a popup message that there is an error in location services..

There is no timestamp in camera settings. I don't remember if it was in 4.2, but that is an option I would need to have.

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Epsylon:
I was on stock ROMs before. Now, on KitKat, compared to them, the battery life is ridiculous.

But! It's for me only, I think! :D

I checked what's using battery.. There's a fact need to know to understand it: My P6 lost it's IMEI, so I can not use it as a mobile phone.

The network standby/searching were using the 67% of the battery.. Pff..

My bad! :D
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] lootjelo:
So battery life on this is bad?
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] lootjelo:
Installed it!

So I installed this, and flashed gapps, and it works like a charm!

I DO have the cursor in 3d party apps, so that's no problem for me. Performance is simply awesome, and I love the new functions :)

Few issues:

Smartcard sevirces (???) stops working at every boot

Battery drains much faster.

Can anyone tell me what one hand UI does?

Please take a look here !

Good luck !

thanks!

just to see if i understand right. If i flash the stock recovery KitKat, i shouldn't have any problems to flash stock B125 via local update.

After flash of stock B125 i should also have the jelly bean stock recovery? or will i have stock recovery KitKat + B125 stock rom?

I haven't tried it yet, but I'll do so when I have some time.
