Ok, i tested this rom [HUAWEI OFFICIAL BETA][7D-503L]KitKat 4.4.2 / EMUI 3.0 / 400 DPI :

1/ No apps compatibility for several apps like Google +, Ratp, SNCF... (yes i'm french :D)

2/ Network correct (sometimes, i lost the network of my carrier) but not great like [7D-503L]KitKat 4.4.2 / EMUI 2.3 / 320 DPI

3/ RAM correct like B102 or B010 but not smooth like [7D-503L]KitKat 4.4.2 / EMUI 2.3 / 320 DPI

However, with this rom, you have

- EMUI 3

- i installed easily Xposed Framework 2.5.1 without editing build.prop and I managed to open the Settings Panel without problems. Perhaps thanks to EMUI 3 ? I don't know...
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] omniphil:
Thanks for the review!, So it sounds like I will stick with the 4.4.2/320 DPI leak for now as it sounds like its better.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] vanngoh:
this emui 3.0 is awwweeeesome! abit laggy but who cares, i would never want to switch back to 2.3 agn, never!

im.using 501L. at 1st i tried downloading B102, then wanted to upgrade to B111 (russian rom) but i bricked it. reset my phone and tried dl 503L 4.4.2 and it worked! nice layout and icons albeit a little less responsive which i can still live with.

1. No gapps issue, must dl google svc, play store (yes it WILL work), maps, google+, etc.

I dl mine all frm 1Mobile Market. Google contacts WILL work in this.rom.

2. There are indeed apps compatibility issues like DBS, OCBC, 4Square etc but swamp can be used.

3. Like.asus's ZenUI, huawei also incorporate there own bloatware like Huawei Club, H.Voice, H.Cloud, H.Navi, H.App store (quite comprehensive actually if your a chinese) etc. other bloatwares like weibo, iNavi, QQ etc. all can be deleted.

4. Facebook cintacts sycn WILL work.

5. In other words, its just like an International rom..

Downside of emui 3.0 is i cant 'link' or 'join' contact like samsung whr i can combine all the 'Michael Lee' tog. Anyone knows how to do it?

i've spent.hours in updating to the correct rom, will not look back!

---------- Post added at 03:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:51 AM ----------

i beg your pardon. Google + DOES NOT WORK in this rom.

google apps doesnt come pre installed in this rom

this rom was modified from a chinese rom

a newer international rom (google pre installed) with emui 3.0 would be out soon, real soon.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] vanngoh:
but eversince i dl all the google apps my batt drain seems abit fast. see attached pic.

very power hungry gapps!
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] omniphil:
So now that this rom has been out for a little bit i'm curious how people like it vs the 4.4.2 320DPI leak? I know the big difference here is the new 3.0 UI, but I use Nova Launcher so the UI doesn't matter to me.

4.42 400DPI leak vs 4.4.2 320DPI leak

How is the performance?

How is the Wifi / 3G?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] lvpl:
I'm using 4.42 400DPI leak and I agree with you, the new 3.0 UI doesn't matter to me too because I use Apex Launncher.

However, it's the only rom I can install Xposed Framework 2.5.1 which works great with modules and without editing build.prop or something else.

Comparing with 4.4.2 320DPI leak, I noticed with my 4.42 400DPI leak, sometimes there is no network of my carrier, I have to move a little bit (I just changed the direction) and the network comes back. I have the same problem with the international rom B102. Weird...

When I installed the 4.4.2 320DPI leak, i don't have this problem. The network was perfect like the official 4.4.2 B010 rom.

Moreover, with the 4.4.2 320DPI leak, the RAM is very very optimized.

Unfortunately, when I installed the 4.4.2 320DPI leak, i don't test if Xposed Framework works correctly on this rom.

Could anyone tell me or give me a feedback about Xposed Framework on this 4.4.2 320DPI leak ?

If Xposed Framework works great on this 4.4.2 320DPI leak, I'm ready to install this rom instead of 4.42 400DPI leak :D
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] omniphil:
For me the only reason why I needed Xposed Framework was to set the DPI of certain apps back to 320DPI, so with the 320DPI leak I didn't have to worry about Xposed at all as the DPI was already good.

And for whatever it's worth, I do not think the Xposed Framework runs all that well on the 320 DPI leak. At least from what I've read.

So it looks like the best rom so far is the 320DPI leak. What has me worried is that the next official release version might be back to 400 DPI :(
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] lvpl:
I understand and I agree with you that the 320DPI leak is the best for now.

omniphil

, as you use the 320DPI leak, could you test please if Xposed Framework works on this rom, with any module you want in order to try the Xposed Framework.

If Xposed Framework works correctly, so i 'm going to install the 320DPI leak to !! ;)

Thank you in advance for your answer. :D
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] omniphil:
I would, but without a way to backup my rom I really don't want to try ;)

How did you manage to update this rom into 7d-501L. Can you let me know what is the steps that you do? I try to update but it ended with one big red fail.

Thank you

How did you
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] omniphil:
Any idea what's updated in B005?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] realeze:
Search the forum, there is another thread with the 501L version.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] lvpl:
Hi potatohead,

Could you explain what is the standard flashing procedure for this update file B005, please ?

I don't understand because i extracted all the folders in the zip in a folder called "dload" but there isn't an update.app in the root.

So i copy the update.app file which was in the "MODEM" folder (this folder is in the zip) in the root of the "dload" folder on my SDcard.

It said the update is done but when i check the Infos of my X1, it displays I'm always on my 7D-503LV100R002C208B002 !! :crying:

Am I missed something ? Could you help me please ?

Thank you in advance for answering.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] potatohead:
from fellow forummer bthoven who have succeeded:

1. Create dload folder in internal sdcard

2. Copy the whole b005 zip file to dload folder (don't unzip it)

3. Rename the b005 zip file to update.zip

4. Local update

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=56766405&postcount=56

looks like u may need to do an update within the OS itself (local update) rather than doing the 3-buttons flash procedure (if u had done that), hope it helps.

i have also updated the OP with the above procedures and changelog.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] leoklunity:
i tried reading all the 501L threat but i cannot find any information. really hope you can help.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] vanngoh:
hi leok,

i dunno actually. i bricked it at one pt an start all over agnafter resetting my phone pressing power and vol down concurrently. select factory reset. i dl all 3 roms to see which one fits. 503L, 501U and 503L. (all emui 3.0 rom). 503L is 4g compatible. 501U is 3g. but i did encounter 1st 2 Fails and 3rd attempt Pass. so keep rebooting and trying.

but bear in mind i bricked my.phone thus resetting it, if u no brick no need to do through this i believe..
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] leoklunity:
Hi Vanngoh,

Thank you for your reply. I have managed to do it yesterday after I reply you. I just need to download the correct file, it will work wonder. There is no brick, it just updated and it run perfectly. Anyway, thank you very much. You have given my phone a great new life. :)

Version B005 very slow on Mediapad 503L

I am using the B002 version, without any issue excepte this anoying missing Library issue for certain software. However I feld this version really stabled a bit slow compare to the 2.3emui version but stable.

I tried the B005 update and got a lazy Phablet, and after a day decide to go back to version B002... Do you know if the DPI can be change easily as I did not succeed in it, no matter way I took...

changelog in English to follow when I have the time to translate.

B006 changelog picture attached in OP, fellow forummers feel free to contribute to the translation.

some chinese users have reported that B006 allows for xposed to be installed and per app dpi settings to be carried out.

ymmv.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] omniphil:
For the folks running B006, Just wondering how the Wifi / 3G performance is?

I am still on the 4.4.2 320DPI leak as that seemed to be the best 4.4.2 rom with network performance, But that rom isn't being updated, looks like the 400DPI leak is the one getting updated, so now maybe this B006 one has gotten better performance wise?

The UI doesn't matter to me as I use Nova Launcher, But I'd like these things...

No App compatibility issues (Seems 400 DPI breaks compatibility on some apps)

Good Wifi and 3G (No dropouts and slowdowns)

Apps stay running in the background (Seems to be an issue on all 4.4.2 roms so far)

Decent performance (All the 4.4.2 roms seems to have this)
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Eoo007:
Thank you for your Rom details My X1 501L international successfully on B006 run smoothly.

Now, I can install and used Xposed 2.7 :D
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] lvpl:
hi,

Could you please give us your feedback about Xposed :

a) Which version of "Xposed Installer" have you installed ?

b) when you installed it, have you checked or unchecked the option "Disabled resource hooks" option in the Xposed Installer parameters ?

c) after installing it, have you managed to open the default settings (app) ?

d) which Xposed modules are you using and is it working great ?

Thank you so much for answering. ;)
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Eoo007:

Thansk for sharing.

Could you install app setting module version 1.8? Try to set 320dpi for Flipboard app and test Flipboard whether it flips page by swiping from right to left; or by swiping from bottom up.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Eoo007:
Sorry I don't understand, what application you mean in Xposed module.

Get more detail I never used this module.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] bthoven:
App Setting module can be found and downloaded within xposed.

Once installed, appsetting will be in the app drawer like a normal app.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Eoo007:
OK Installing V 1.8, but how to use :confused:
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] bthoven:
Thank. Plus install Flipboard, run it. Choose cover stories. You can flip page by swiping up. Quit Flipboard.

Run appsetting, choose Flipboard app, then fill in value 320 at dpi and save.

Run Flipboard again, choose cover story, try to flip page by swiping from right to left.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Eoo007:
OK, No change before and after the change to 320 DPI.

I have try to flip page by swiping from right to left / left to right / up > down / down > up.

[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] omniphil:
I don't have Xposed installed at all. Everything works pretty well without it.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] bthoven:
Thanks a lot for the comprehensive first hand experience sharing.

Now, the only thing I don't like about 400dpi is the mobile ui, instead of tablet ui which some apps support. I believe it still doesn't support tablet ui (e.g. Pocket app should display saved items as grid, not as line-by-line listing; Flipboard should flip page side way, instead of flipping up). Could you please confirm?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] omniphil:
Flipboard flips top to bottom

I hate 400DPI as well, things are just too big, the first time I used Google Maps the big green border at the top was huge. Many other things look way too big. If the screen were really small maybe this would be nicer, but on a huge screen I don't need the UI to be huge as well.

Huawei, I know you are reading these forums, so please please please please make these roms 320DPI going forward. 320DPI is the android standard size and its what most apps look normal app. 400DPI just makes everything look odd and out of place. Please? Pretty Please? Pretty please with sugar on top?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] omniphil:
Just adding some more info in regards to Wifi performance.

While the Wifi does seem faster than the 4.4.2 320DPI B002 leak, I have experienced some dropout again where I have to turn off wifi and back on again. It's not as bad as the earlier 4.4.2 builds, but nowhere near as stable as the 4.4.2 320DPI B002 Leak.

It would also seem that 5Ghz is still a problem. At home I had to set my wifi access points to G only and that helps. at work we have combination G and N (N is 5Ghz only at work) and wifi just disconnect and reconnects alot and is generally unresponsive. (Didn't seem to have this issue either on the 4.4.2 320DPI B002 Leak)

Everything else is just great with this rom, well except 400DPI. the UI is just too big.

Has anyone tried Xposed on this rom yet to set the DPI? or has anyone experimented with trying to set the DPI in the build.prop file?

I know they didn't work well at all on older builds, but maybe this one is better?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] syepes:
Hello,

I have been running this version on a 7D503L for some weeks now and it works just fantastic, I have just not managed to resolve the following two issues:

Google Contact Sync:

I have tried the trick that worked with EMUI 2.3, the renaming of the file UNSTALL_APK.XML (/cust/channel/charm_china_l/xml/).

Now in EMUI 3.0 this file is located in (/cust/hw/default/xml/) but if its renamed it does not correct the Google Contact Sync problem.

Has anyone found a fix for this issue?

Installation of G+ and Other apps

Previously it was possible to install G+ after installing the files: "/system/framework/com.google.android.maps.jar", "/system/etc/permission/com.google.android.maps.xml"

http://cn.club.vmall.com/thread-985845-1-4.html

This no longer works, has anyone found an alternative solution?

Best regards and thanks in advance for any info.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] omniphil:
I installed Google+ by adding those 2 files (Set permissions to 0644), worked the same as the older roms.

I have no issues with google contact sync either, what I had to do to get it working was to download a Kitkat Gapps package and extract the two sync .apk (GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk and GoogleContactSyncAdapter.apk) and just install them manually.

---------- Post added at 11:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:01 PM ----------

I just tried installing Xposed Framework 2.7. With or without the resource hooked enabled I cannot get the App Settings DPI changes to work.

This is due to Huawei's built in theme engine, but I figured I would try it anyways...

Oh well :)
