Hi Blefish,

I am here again. I have realized that I have lost my IMEI and I wanted to fix it. Anyway, I am not able to enter the engineering menu. When I dial:

*#*#2846579#*#*

the numbers disappear but nothing happens.

Any suggestion? How can I fix the IMEI?

Thanks for your support.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
The IMEI can currently only be fixed in stock ROM, using the DFS tool. This ROM does not have the necessary app that is started after pressing those numbers.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] zaf_4:
Good morning,

I am on 4.0.4 for a long time. It's very laggy now. I want to flash 4.4.4 or 5.1, which do you recommend me?

The use is for 2nd mobile. I just want to try something new!

I used carefully your info about flashing 5.1 and right now i am on Lollipop!

I used twrp recovery and then ble-part-LVM, flashing rom and gapps.

Now i have to see what's bugs there are.

Ι cant get wifi at all. I flashed update1.zip but still the same. Is something different that i could do please?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] miskiab:
Hi,

5.1.1. notifications are not working correctly. Do not go on the screen. and sometimes goes black screen errors.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] anzi2001:
[MENTION=4223446]Blefish[/MENTION] do you know how to make this phone stop searching for network?..like completly...so that it acts as a wifi device? Cause right now its sucking my battery like crazy :D
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
I've usually set it to aeroplane mode to do that. However, there is a charging issue. It might be possible to use the testing menu *#*#4636#*#*->Phone information->Turn off radio. I have not tested it myself, but it should have a similar effect. You could also try to set it to 2G only mode, to see if it takes less battery that way.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] anzi2001:
Could you just delete the phone app and some other stuff to be like WiFi.. Yea I know I can dial that but it seems that it turns aeroplane mode :/

Hello dev, I couldn't flash those packages through CWM 6.0.4.6, my previous ROM is CM 11. When I flashed through CWM, it notified some error messages like "failed to mount /dev/partitions/system, assuming ext4..", here's the attachment of error log.

What should I do? Thx in advance.. ?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] pipoawas:
I frequently notice tremendous lag when I turn the device on, during at least 5 minutes. I suspect it may have something to do with the sdcard, although on those lag times the apps I run are not in it.

also I'm getting many "google services stopped responding" or "settings stopped responding" messages

i cant flash this rom. see in log. cm11 too wont install

Blefish do you still work in this ROM?

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
Indeed I do. I will release a new build next week.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] anzi2001:
Yeess please :eek: with 3.10 kernel and cpu and gpu overclock? That would be heaven :D
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
3.10 kernel is still not ready for everyday use :/. I can make a small update package for those interested though. CPU overclock is there already, you need to control it through a separate app. GPU overclock is possible, but the clocks are not good, our default is 245MHz and I managed to get it to 266.7MHz (iirc). After that the next clock is way beyond that and probably too much.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] anzi2001:
Yes pleasee i can be a tester if you want :) and if you have the will add the gpu overclock in at the final release :) i want every bit of power i can get :)

How about f2fs reformatting? I know im asking much but i really want to reformat to f2fs and your twrp doesnt support that i think

Thank you for the hard work :) you made my phone much better :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sir mordred:
hi blefish

it can be interesting http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2368497

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
Hi, new release is up at Basketbuild! U8860 is currently uploading, it is ready once the .md5sum file is up.

Changelog is automatically generated here: https://github.com/LegacyHuawei/local_manifests/wiki/CM12.1-changelog

Since CM removed performance settings, I'd advise you to install a custom CPU frequency control app that allows overclocking. I am running mine daily at 1.4GHz and it seems stable.

New TWRP will follow tomorrow :)

-EDIT-

Forgot to mention that this build disables boot spinner, which greatly reduces first boot delay. So don't worry if you don't see it.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
New TWRP images will be up at Basketbuild in ~10 minutes. I just tested and F2FS works fine, if you select wipe, check /data, and change it's file system to f2fs. Make sure to only select /data, other partitions are not supported.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] anzi2001:
Dude thank you soo much for this! You are making wonders to this phone! Will reformat right when i get from my holiday! And about the 3.10 testing :D i can test if you want :) give me the zip and ill give you all the changelogs and all that stuff you need :D

No cache reformatting tho? Why not?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] anzi2001:
Nevermind...i screwed up something :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
/cache is unsupported because it adds no performance benefit. /cache is unused in Android, and it's size is ~10MB, F2FS requires at least 100MB partition.

I still need to work on 3.10 before releasing a test, recently I got DT (device tree) working, which is ought to make porting in the future a lot easier and it reduces duplicate code by a huge factor. However in 3.10 the KSM works fine and the kernel version is 3.10.84 :).
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] anzi2001:
Thanks for the reply :D keep me informed when the 3.10 is ready for testing :D
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] pipoawas:
Only now I noticed the new rom.

I will wipe everything and install from scratch since I'm having a lot of problems with the previous versions, like constant google services force closing, periods where the device in unbelievably slow, and messages saying the SDcard was removed incorrectly (it wasn't). Does this happend to anyone else? Anyone with a hnt for this?

Anyway, before I flash the new rom should I delete those system folders that android puts in my SDcard? (like 'Alarms', '.android_secure', '.estrongs', etc)

I checked what f2fs is and found that it's a file system for SDcards, but currently we can only use it in /data which isn't in the SDcard. So should I format /data in f2fs at all?

EDIT:

The google apps force closing could be caused by gapps-modular-pico that I installed.

Here I found 2 more gapps:

gapps-5.1-2015-06-02-15-19.zip and gapps-5.1-arm-2015-07-17-13-29.zip, both even lighter than the pico I had before. Which one of them should I install?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
You should be fine to remove the SD folders, but it should be harmless.

What I don't understand is the GApps issues only some face. I'd recommend you to try different gapps and see if it improves the situation. Most GApps are made universal, so they could be flashed on different devices.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] pipoawas:
Thanks for the input Blefish, I'll try your new rom today
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] pipoawas:
I installed the ROM, seems fast but I'm having a issue, the sdcard is only being half recognized. I can browse it's contents, all my photos and music are there, but not only the music player doesn't find anything, also the gallery finds no photos. The weird thing is, if I take a new photo, it's stored together with the others in the exact same path, but then the gallery only shows that one. I tried unmounting and mounting again this SD card, and now the gallery shows empty again, not even the new taken photo appears anymore. And again, if I take a new one, only this one shows in the gallery (and the next ones I take), until I unmount/remount the SD , and the cycle repeats again.

But all the photos are there, I opened them with the 'explorer'.

I haven't installed gapps yet, nor have I configured my gmail account.

What strange kind of strange filtering is this, any clue?

EDIT: My sd card seems to be the main one, because when I unmount it, the camera says there's no sd card found and refuses to take pictures.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dancer_69:
Check if the folders which you store the images have a ".nomedia" file inside and delete it.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] pipoawas:
No there aren't any .nomedia files either in DCIM, camera or music folders.

And if they were any, the photo gallery wouldn't show any photo ever. Instead it shows the recent ones I take, -until I unmount/remount the SD card, that is-, then it will only shows the ones I take after the remount. I have 0 explanation for this.

EDIT:

Finally and suddenly the phone "acknowledged" that there are many more photos in the card and music. Now things appear in their respective galleries/players. I didn't do anything apart from playing a song from that cyanogen explorer that comes with the rom (to see if it was really there, and not just some ghost file from a badly mounted SDcard). Still have 0 explanations for this behaviour. This is sorcery :P.

Oh well, at least is finally working (for now).

I think I've experienced the bug, but I have bad signal so it seemed to be the cause. I think the RIL message was not successfully transferred. I will do a new build very soon by the way, for both cm-11.0 and cm-12.1 to fix remaining security issues.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] miskiab:
i have %100 same problem with mahdial. and only the following problem if resolved, this ROM is okay for me.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] tsioy:
Can we just flash it over the previous cm12.1 or do we need to wipe dalvik/cache?

When I connect the phone to my PC (windows 8.1 x64), the phone doesn't properly connect (! mark ). Is there any drivers that help?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
You can just flash it over. The dalvik cache (art now) will be regenerated on first boot anyways.

You may have to install Huawei USB drivers, it should properly identify afterwards. I think it did install drivers automatically if USB debugging was not enabled.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] miskiab:
Hi Dear Blefish, I want to give related information with the latest version. This vers. is very good and fast going thank you again.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] zazza8:
How's the framework.jar so small in the newest build? It's only 309 bytes. I'm trying to edit it so that I could add more volume steps but I can't backsmali it because it doesn't contain the classes.dex file.

By the way, what has happened to the folder structure of the rom zip, it doesn't look anything like the way it looked in cm 11? :confused:
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] miskiab:
Is there a GSM network using the latest version of you feel that you are falling in traction? I'm not sure if the 20150612 version according to the GSM network less draws / connecting like. 2g usually no network connection.Or do I have a problem really sourced from GSM operator.

Blefish, also "data not working" Does this apply to bugs and patch U8800? thanks.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
I frankly have no idea. It might be moved off to separate framework file, or it might be the result of dexpreopt. Currently the builds have block based OTA method, next builds will switch back to file based, at the expense of slower flashing times.

I experience bad network all the time, but even on stock ROMs, so I cannot comment here. The "data not working" seems to happen only with 404029 baseband, as far as I can tell, so U8800 should not have the bug.

Hi I've installed the 20150816 and I have no data connexion... no idea why (it is the only ROM which has this issue but it is the first CM 12 I'm installing).

Any idea?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JekaPinsk:
Requesting an update :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
Coming today haha :). New cm-11.0 build will be done too, with some performance updates from cm-12.1 (bfq related).

Btw, the new build should have many performance improvements. CM has merged patches for faster in-call UI loading, also notable BFQ priority changes to optimize I/O scheduling.

I don't want to bring your hopes down but this will probably be the last release for the msm7x30 series. I am joining the military training next week, and will be away for ~8 months. It's likely that the msm7x30 SOC will be then even more outdated and people have upgraded. I am using my msm7x30 phones as just a sports tracker nowadays, and with the fixed music skipping (thanks to LPA), it works as a good media player too.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] mmick:
Blefish, I am having MAJOR issues

I had a custom ROM, a 4.1.2 custom ROM and then I wanted to try your ROM.

I installed Blepart 2.x, then Blepart 2.1 and it formated everything, and partitioned everything. It went, AFAIK well.

Problems

1) I installed again the latest TWRP, tried to install the latest ROM & it did not went well (error that couldn´t do it)

2) I tried again with another Recovery AND it didn´t install the Recovery well (it rebooted and came a BLUE screen)

3) I tried everything but the phone was "dead", only the Pink OR blue screen

4) I downloaded the original Android 2.3 ROM (U8800_Android 2.3 V100R001C00B526G001(Normal)), SD Card, on without battery (USB only) and it flashed well

5) I rebooted and it loaded Android 2.3 BUT:

5.1) if I reboot the phone (which means, after the first time) it goes in cycles loading the OS but never makes it (with / without card or battery)

5.2) to load the OS again I have to go to the recovery (original) format everything and load it again (again, loads ok when everything is clean, but as soon as I reboot for a 2nd time... again in boot cycles)

5.3) I tried to enable USB debugging, etc and root, BUT SuperOneClick doesn´t make it "unable to found data/local/tmp/output "

5.4) with Pink screen the computer (Windows 8.1 32-bit and another with 8.1 64-bit) does not see the "Bootloader Image drive" in order to put a root image inside), despite forcing several drivers or ADB...

I think it has to do with deorganized folders or partitions, despite the new OS... I cannot root, I cannot install custom recovery or custom ROM! What can I do ???

Sorry, as I read on Blepart 2.x as it was Blepart LVM 2.x and missed that Blepart LVM 1.0 is newer as Blepart 2.x!!!

Thank you all people that answered VERY fast and helped a lot!!! :good::laugh:

For people that are dumb like me:

1) after a clean Huawei OS or already on Custom ROM install TWRP LVM Recovery (via SDCard if Custom Recovery, or PINK Screen if clean OS)

2) install (from SDCard) Blepart LVM 1.x (and NOT Blepart 2.x!!!)

3) DO NOT reboot, install directly from TWRP the CM12 (or other LVM compatible) ROM
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JekaPinsk:
Forget about Blepart 2.x. Just install new TWRP and than Blepart LVM
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] mohammad.nomaan:
Wait I guess ur missing 1 part here. You need to get back to stock partition before you go to LMV. In pink screen change recovery to CWM5.5 then flash blepart recovery, reflash recovery and then flash stock partition zip. Then only you will get out of bootloop and TWRp2.8 for CM12 will work. I guess ur missing that part. Also when u flash the stock partition the B512 stock ROM will get functional and u can verify the partition there. If that us done you are good to go for the next steps
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] mmick:
JekaPinsk & mohammad.nomaan: Thank you very much, it did work, now running fine :D

With mohammad.nomaan tips I came from Pink / Blue screen with no PC (or recovery) access to a functional OS with "Image" Folder on PINK screen access. The Link you gave me points to a Portuguese TOP ROM with Pink Screen access. The other from Huawei website did not work for me.

IMPORTANT: I got PC access from PINK Screen with Battery + USB Cable (fast on PC plug and VOL UP/DOWN/Power combination). Without battery it did not work!!!

With JekaPinsk tips I discovered that Blepart 2.x is obsolete for the new ROMs, and simply TWRP Recovery flash + inside flash Blepart LVM 1.x + and without rebooting, flash the new CM12 and....enjoy

When you start the phone in pink screen mode and connect to PC, it should show you the phone as a mass storage device.

You may need to reinstall LVM afterwards. I found the problem today as I was browsing the source. I'll do a new release ASAP to fix this issue.

I'm thinking about it. I could possibly make an update package that can be flashed over after flashing ROM. However this way the storage would be mixed up (aka external sd is actually internal).

cm-12-20141231-UNOFFICIAL-Blefish-u8800-update1.zip uploaded

Changes:

* Increased SF heap by 2MB (to 32MB).

* Changed reset order of BQ24152 charger chip.

* Synaptics TS now powers on/off after screen on/off, rather than CPU off (this should fix TS issues as CPU turns on/off frequently and it might cause the TS to fail).

* Fixed RGB pipe offset issue. If you'd like to gain a nice performance boost, edit /system/build.prop accordingly (will be added into next build). This also makes Settings->Development options->Disable HW overlays setting work properly (disabling HW overlays means it will disable MDP composition):
