Thanks for the reply...

As far as is can see you just can backup fotos, messages, and IE-settings.

(no contacts, calender-information, certificates,...)

Is there another way to get at least my contacts from WP8 to WP8.1?

An additional question:

Is it possible to get back to WP8 after flashing the WP8.1 rom?

Any hints welcome :)

best regards

Wojtas Huawei Rom on the ascend w1 H883G

I have actually successfully installed this on the net10 branded ascend w1 H883G. It does not appear to be restricted to just the w1-u00. I have verified functionality with t-mobile and with mobile data (2G only so far) and will move on to test other networks as well as other functions. So far, there have been no problems.You do have to make sure and complete the full first time startup before installing the 1.00 and 1.10 custom roms. In addition, download mode was only accessible via the shorting of the #1 sdcard pin to the sim cover. Right now, I am going to play with the network settings and see if I can get faster data (probably not)

I can't upgrade my phone to 1.10 !

Hello (sorry for my English)

I had windows phone 8.1 on my huawei, after (for the problem of sd card) i decided to install the custom ROM and my phone downgraded to 8.0 (the Russian version). I've tried to use WP8CRUU.exe for the upgrade but it shows the error 21. The phone was in download mode, the PC reads it as "Qualcomm MMC Storage 9006" so i don't know what is the problem (i've tried on Windows 8 64 bit and Windows 7 32 bit and they give me the same error 21). Anyone can help me? Is there a new ROM so I can flash again the phone with it? (because the v.1.10 contains a lot of file.bin when i flash i need a file .app)

Third, can anyone tell me how's the general experience on W10? Does it have a lot of lags/bugs? If it gets just impossible can I roll back to WP8.1 with the V1.1 update?

EDIT: Actually it's okay, found my way! ;)
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lucario94:
Seems like update is downloading now, added strings that were not present.

As for how to do this:

1. Go to mass storage with phone and connect it to PC

2. On PC go to start, type regedit and launch it

3. Press on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE(don't go in) then at the top press File, Load Hive...

4. Select phone's MainOS partition, in search write config when the folder config will appear go into it

5. Select SYSTEM and load it, you will be asked to name this hive, name it however you want

6. Now in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE this new hive will be present, go into it then continue to Platform\DeviceTargeting Info

7. Here you edit values that WojtasXda presented earlier

EDIT: If you will succeed in updating it to WP10, please tell us of how you did it, because at least for me the update was downloaded but could not be opened (80070490).

I will wait for some feedback before installing W10 TP :good:
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lucario94:
No, I did not do the normal phone update, what I did was: reflashed 1.32 then restored my older phone backup, waited till it restored everything, then went to mass storage changed registry entries to what I have posted, then went to Insider, it said there is no preview builds but I have pressed on log in to Microsoft account and when it logged on it showed two options: Slow Insider and Fast Insider(chose fast one), then in normal update menu after phone was restarted Windows Phone 10 update appeared, I had to free up some space though but it installed successfully.

And yes, it is quite buggy, though I like how it looks for the most part, I will probably flash back to 1.32 in few days.

Problems that I had:

1. Sometimes notification bar responds bad, like you need few tries until you can get it down.

2. Brightness changes for no reason, also sometimes doesn't change.

3. Could not change lock screen through settings, Lock Screen menu(crashes).

4. Lags here and there, takes longer to go to settings, new photo app is laggy, camera is better but lagier as well, well you can feel that it is unpolished yet.

5. And the most annoying issue that is making me look back to 8.1 is that cellular data does not work even with manual apn settings, so no internet sharing too.(maybe there is a workaround?)

As for the apps, every app that I have works no problem.
