Huawei Ascend Mate stuck on "Huawei Ascend" logo

Hey guys,

ever since I downloaded and tried to install the B707 software adapted to Huawei Ascend Mate (Kitkat 4.4 with EMUI 3.0), my phone is stuck at the Huawei Ascend loading screen when trying to boot.

I had installed CWM on my phone, which is on Android 4.1.2 with EMUI 1.5, and as soon as I had copied the .zip file to my external SD card, I entered CWM, wiped cache, and installed the .zip from the external SD card. It all seemed to go well and no failure signal occured to my eyes. But when I tried to reboot the phone, it would get totally stuck on the booting screen. When pressing power, it just turns off and immediately after restarts doing the same thing.

When pressing power + vol up it enters "Android System recovery <3e>" , but at some point, it just shuts down and sometimes it turns on again with the "Huawei Ascend " logo reappering. Hence I cannot really do an effective factory reset or install stock firmware or connect it to my pc in recovery mode.

As I did a Nandroid backup previously, it would be just great to use it again on Android 4.1.2!!

I really appreciate your help.

Thanks!

I've followed this tutorial to install LINK2SD

All seemed to go OK (but then how would I know) until I get to:

Steps to install and use link2sd[2.2.3 version]:

•Let the media scanner finish the scanning process, then open link2sd app and you will see a pop up menu "Select the file system of your SD card's second partition"

I don't get any such pop up, and if I go to Storage Info I get:

SD Card 2nd Part.

Not Found
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] TheFixItMan:
Then you haven't created a 2nd ext partition on your sd card

You can do this easily in cwm recovery under the partitioning section

Note this will format your sd card so backup first
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] nigelmercier:
I created a second partition, but FAT32 as suggested by the tutorial above. I now note that Link2SD says it should be EXT on the Play page, which type would be best?
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] nigelmercier:
OK, sorted.

It seems that doing a Factory Reset wipes the second partition. I recreated an EXT3 partition, and it seems to be working.

Found a better tutorial as well.

Hi there,

Is there a tweak or hack that connects android wear to iphone? Since google now is an app on the iphone, it might be possible to connect the wear to iphone. Please post on this thread if possible.

Cheers,

I have been looking around everywhere for a way to get iMessages / notifications on to Android wear with no success, Subscribing to this thread ...
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hawke84:
Anything is possible but someone would have to compile the android wear app for android into ios porting simple apps takes time so something that hands up tooth connectivity and notification handling and device manager etc makes it all the more complex. Also if the app is closed source it needs to be reverse engineered. Nothing is impossible but don't hold your breath.
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikereidis:
It's a big job to make anything very useful.

Majority of iPhone owners will buy iWatch when it comes if they want a smartwatch.

So, if anyone does it, it will not be to make money, it will be a "love of hacking" that would drive it.

And a "love of hacking" likely means they would prefer to do projects that hook Android Wear to regular Android.
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Firefyter:
Android Wear does what it was designed to do, connect with Android phones. This question would be better asked in the Crapple forums. They're used to people asking "Why won't my iPhone do what the Androids do?"
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blunt_wizard:
Long story short, thats a solid no. But if you wanted to theres a lot to change, youd basically have to rewrite the entirety of the android wear app to work with ios, and ios api's, plus then you have to rework the bluetooth protocal and tweak it on your watchs operating system so that your android watch can talk to ios, bevause apple made it so that you cannot ever communicate with an android device over bluetooth, so that means you would have to basically rewrite the android wear app and how it handles messages, email, how it communicates with google now, and then procede to tweak and modify the operating system on the watch, and then theres the issue of how ios handles apps, and background processes, and on top of that youd probably need to customize ios. Theres no simple work around to do this, and there never will be. Some one would literally need to redo everything, from almost every standpoint.

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricwhic414:
I have been having an issue recently of Google Search and Hangouts both force closing. Hangouts force closes less than Search. It is also random, I haven't found that it happens during any particular app is being used on the phone. Sometimes I will just be on the home screen and the force close message will pop up.

I tried clearing the cache for search but the force close just popped up while using Google Now.

Any ideas?

Please i need your help. i want to upgrade my android version to 5.0 lollipop on my xperia e1. Please assist me with any custom ROM that i can use to run 5.0 on my device.
[XDA Assist] Perseus:
According to 【E1】 XPeria E1 (D2005) semi-official dev thread -flashing, hacking, rooting and all , there are Custom Lollipop Roms being worked on. Please review that thread for news on Stock update from Sony.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] miked63017:
Bluetooth, wifi, NFC, Phone, and camera all seem to work fine. No FCs at all yet. Installed a bunch of apps all working fine, even facebook.

Wifi hotspot works, didn't test any other forms of tethering

Must flash gapps to get to the setup process. Tap n go works for account setup. Tap n pay works on the vending machines near me, one time it took 2 taps to pay but that was probably my fault.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] miked63017:
Got the incoming call bug fixed, will reserve this post for other known bugs

All in all this feels pretty stable considering how early it is in the Lollipop game, I am using it as my daily driver and haven't been let down by it yet.

**Bugs**

Reported from users:

Moving apps to SD seems to be qwuirky, reports of SD formatted as Ext-SD through philz working, but other formats not working

Time problems - Manually set time zone, instead of leaving it on automatic and things should work fine

Help me find more!!
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] greogory:
Thank you very much for the straight CM12 build. This helped me, because it confirms that many (not all) of the problems I've been having with other CM12 builds on kltespr appear to be in the base, and not tweaks or mods. Here's a list that I just posted over in [MENTION=4406894]vinman12[/MENTION] Team Nocturnal CM12 thread.

The good:

Camera, video, audio (with a wired connection), WiFi & mobile data are all good.

The bad:

Bluetooth connections are iffy, at best. BT sharing crashes & BT audio device connections are hit or miss.

Phone calls have been randomly troublesome. Most of the time the dialer works great calling and receiving. There are other times I have to retry 2 or 3 times just to get dialing started. Sometimes I can answer a call, but neither of us can hear the other one even though the connection still appears live. And sometimes the dialer won't disconnect after a call is finished, and even killing the app doesn't free the connection requiring a reboot.

Let me know if you want logs sent. If so, how: PM, just posted here, stuck on pastebin or whatever else you prefer.

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] miked63017:
I have heard about everything mentioned, I have yet to run into any of the bluetooth stuff personally but I have noticed the phone call problems. I did actually cherry pick a few commits from a few different repos to get the RIL working properly, so I guess in one way the cm12 base has been slightly modified. I did want to keep it as clean as possible to track the state of base as well, but I do plan on cherry picking more commits here and there to test things. Before pulling in the RIL changes you couldn't even answer the phone, it just used some weird built in ringer that went off until you rebooted, even after the call hung up.

I will try to stay up to date with what other people are doing to fix these problems, but really this build was more for getting a good Lollipop build env setup for other things. I do plan on getting nightlies going, in case you couldn't tell by the filename :) , but I can't say for sure how much this is gonna stray from base. So I guess for now, if the bugs are in base, and other builds, they will most likely be here too.

Can you give me a good way to run into the bluetooth problems you have had? I only use it for phone calls in my vehicle and haven't noticed any probs yet, it also seemed to work fine for the tap'n'go account setup when I first installed the rom.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] greogory:
And, of course, everything is working perfectly now that I'm actively trying to make something fail while I'm running logcat.

Hey, I know: it's Heisenburg's fault! We can only see when something fails or collect debug data, but not both at the same time. Because uncertainty. Those deranged quantum bastards hosed everything up for all of us normal geeks. :)

---------- Post added at 09:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:19 AM ----------

And to prove my theory, about 2 seconds after I Ctrl-C'd logcat and cleared it to try again, BT failed in the middle of my favorite AC/DC song. But on the bright side, I have a 9MB logcat file of exactly zero bugs.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] miked63017:
Lol, well if you get a logcat with the error send it over and I will take a look. I will look around and see if there is any BT specific commits we can pull in to try.

I left CM12 because it had issues playing videos in Chrome, but I think I'll give this a shot later :) Thanks for sharing mike!
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] miked63017:
My pleasure, fwiw my daughter has been watching crap all day on my phone in chrome, mostly YouTube(apparently chrome is default app when hitting a link). I do know that I cannot play videos in chrome from my plex server, but the plex app worked when I briefly tested it, and plex worked with chromecast.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] ghostzyden:
Ok appreciate it :)
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] miked63017:
Anybody notice any other bugs? I see the download counter going up but not much feedback. I haven't rebooted at all since I flashed it, 2-3 days, wondering if everyone else's experience is the same? Anybody else using the hotspot, do you have a tile for it in the notification panel? It looks like its supposed to be there but I didn't see it originally so I found a sqlite table to add to and got it working, but not sure if it works out of the box for anyone.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] greogory:
Not a problem here, just not much time or functioning brain cells to test & post results today.

I started over with a serious cleaning and repartitioned with the original Samsung PIT and a full erase in Odin. Then I installed the NKD firmware from [MENTION=1042140]tdunham[/MENTION], immediately followed by your CM12. Since then, everything I had trouble with on CM12 has been totally stable. No BT issues, no phone issues, and not horrible battery life.

I'm going to give [MENTION=4406894]vinman12[/MENTION]'s latest Team Nocturnal CM12 another test later this evening or tomorrow morning. I plan to use the latest TW Lollipop for a few solid days after that.

I'm wondering if those of us who frequently flash back & forth among firmware versions, boot loaders, TW & CM have "polluted" our partitions enough over time that simple formatting leaves too much crap in the sd cells that rarely get zeroed out. My I/O is definitely faster after the fresh PIT install.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] miked63017:
Agreed, I think a wipe should dd /dev/zero to the partition instead of just formating. But theoretically speaking I don't think it should make a difference because any data left over should be written over as new data is saved, and not be skipped to make fragmentation. But I do notice "oddities" when jumping back and forth a lot.

Either way, glad the problems went away, and fwiw I flashed a clean NKD leak in Odin prior to flashing this as well.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] miked63017:
Updated OP with latest build, untested, but it pulls in some upstream code changes from the CM team. Also, re-formatted OP.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] bigfruits8188:
Rom

As of right now im having no problems. Installed earlier today and gonna let it run a few days before i say anything. I have noticed that i cant play NBA jam game, the touch screen doesnt work when the game loads. Could be on their end or it just could be a CM issue. Anyway, thanks for the stable rom!

[ROM] Un-Adulterated CM12 5.0.2

This has happened twice. I'm using the bot build as of 1/2/15. This also happened with another 5.0.2 CM based rom I tried. The only way to get out of that message is to take the battery out and restart. Any ideas what causing it?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] miked63017:
I have had it happen once while the phone was in my pocket not being used. I had it happen about 5-6 times on the stock NKD leak, I suspect the auto root kernel on that. Not sure why it happens on CM.

Did you get the log from when it happened by any chance? Its definitely a kernel panic, figuring out what is happening right before the panic would help to troubleshoot. If we can figure out why it might be a simple edit in the kernel build.

Whatever other info you can give might be helpful, like I said its only happened once to me while the phone was in my pocket. It just happened to me the day before yesterday, before that I hadn't had to reboot for any reason.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Prince_Basil:
If you could show me how to do that I can get it for you. I wiped my phone, I installed your ROM, then installed Gapps, then installed Updated SU root. Then I just started using my phone. Installed all my apps and fixed my settings. Also, I've been having issues with moving apps to the SD card. It says I have no room but its a 32 GB SD card with 22 GBs free. And battery life is really bad. I looked to see what might be causing it and it the highest one Miscellaneous... So I'm not sure what that is. The screen shot only shows 11% because my phone just restarted. But before that it was at 67%.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] miked63017:
Not sure what you mean by updating SU root, CM has all its root stuff built into the settings menu. Did you flash something for SU, and if so did it include a kernel?

I do notice slightly reduced battery performance, but if I setup the auto brightness control and a few other things my battery is at about 10% at the end of the day. I am sure battery performance will get better as more people begin to work on CM 12.

Not sure the best way to get the kernel logs off the top of my head, but if you flashed a SU package that included a kernel it could be related to your kernel panics.

I will look into the logs and your SD card issue over the next few days.

Looks like cm ota updater is bugging me to update, I guess that means I will have to work on my ota mechanism that I have been putting off for awhile. Maybe included in the next build if I can get a solid webserver setup for hosting the otas.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] warpjavier:
I can make phone calls now!!!!

Only thing is It says Sprint on the lock screen but that is not a big deal.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] miked63017:
Awesome, let me know if everything else works as expected. If it saying sprint isn't a big deal I probably just won't mess with it, build is fully scripted and I got a lot of other crap on my plate.

I flashed 1-26 this morning, the gesture typing isn't working for me, tried toggling it a lot and stuff with no luck. Has this been fixed in the 1-27 version or am I the only one that has this issue?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] dricacho:
I was on Touchwiz 5.0 with NKD for 3 weeks and never got the Kernel panic.

---------- Post added at 07:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:37 PM ----------

I flashed the 1/27 nightly and BT started crashing again. What I don't get is that this build had the same exact Bluetooth fixes as the 1/26 nightly based on the change log.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] ToeJullar:
Haven't heard the noise in a few days. Not since going on the newest build. I'm not counting it fixed yet. It always goes off when I least expect it. Also, ever get anything on that stock camera app? Is there an APK somewhere I can get? or someway to change it myself?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] miked63017:
I got it 3 times in 4 days on the stock leak, its what prompted me to start building cm, all three times while using maps and texting at the same time. I will search around tomorrow to see if there's any patches anybody else is using for BT. FWIW the repos that the BT fixes are in I don't have forked and I do a clean repo sync on every build so those ones will always get pulled in, its the repos I have forked that sometimes get delayed updates depending on how much time I have free.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] miked63017:
Sorry, honestly idk what gesture typing is, I never even heard of it lol. It sounds interesting though, how does it work?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] smaw51:
the swiping thing on the keyboard, moving the finger around to the letters to make the words and stuff..
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] ToeJullar:
Just get Swype Keyboard, or Swiftkey. Gonna be way better than any gesture typing CM puts out.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] bchalker:
root

I seem to have lost root and SU during install. How do I get it back?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] miked63017:
Check in settings->developer options->root access
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] miked63017:
I will re-test on the latest build, I meant to tell you earlier the last time I tested it force closed. There are a few camera apps that some people are recommending, I will try to find where I saw it.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] miked63017:
I am sorry it doesn't install at all, it says missing libs, I manually went through and put missing libs in place and still the same message. I think there is something deeply intertwined in Samsung's system that allows the camera to work, we might be able to get it going with enough people looking at it would need decompilation and reverse engineering. But I don't think I can handle the task by myself. The name of the other camera app is FV-5, the free version is decent and I hear the paid version is excellent.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] dricacho:
Phone won't completely hangup as well. I realized this after hearing this faint fast busy tone while I was at the doctor's office. I thought it was someone's phone doing that but when I left the doctor's office and got in my car, I still heard the faint fast busy tone. I put the phone's speaker right up against my right ear and sure enough it was coming from my phone. I killed the phone app but it didn't stop the fast busy tone. I ended up having to reboot. This same thing happens every time I try to hang up from a call.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] miked63017:
I just made a phone call and it hung up fine. Is there anything more specific you noticed, like only happens on incoming calls or calls over BT? Just trying to reproduce it.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] warpjavier:
Hi Mike,

Everything seem to be working fine. I added eri.xml to data and now Boost Mobile is showing.

Only problem is if I turn off the WiFi and Data, the time gets changed for some reason.

Thats a minor issue.

I'll keep trying new versions and post my results.

Thank you so much for your work!!!!
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] dricacho:
Both times, I made outgoing calls w/o bluetooth. This started happening after clean-flashing the 1/27 nightly build late last night. Yesterday afternoon, when I dirty-flashed it over the 1/26 nightly build, I didn't have this problem. It's so odd.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] miked63017:
Hrm...maybe I will try a clean flash a little later, I always dirty flash over the previous. Let me know if you notice anything else that stands out.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] ToeJullar:
Thanks for going out of your way to test it. Guess I'll manage with the stock camera or shell out a few bucks for a good 3rd party.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] vizionary357:
I noticed in the changelogs for 1/26 that there were "Lots of Bluetooth updates". As I'm sure most are well aware, bluetooth music streaming has been an issue with almost every CM12-based ROM out here. My question is this: has anyone flashed build 1/26 and how is the music streaming over bluetooth?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] miked63017:
There's reports that it was better in the 1/26 build, but still not completely fixed. Look back about 20 posts for the full details.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] miked63017:
New builds in OP, just upstream changes. Nothing related to bluetooth that I noticed, but small fixes for settings and a few other things.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] dricacho:
So far the 1/26 nightly build has been the most stable for me. Less kernel panic, less bluetooth crashes, and less application force closures. Today's and yesterday's nightlies have been giving me problems connecting to wifi as well. I have restored my nandroid back-up with the 1/26 nightly and will stay on this for now.

Hope you guys have a better luck with these newer builds.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] miked63017:
I have been doing good with the last 2 versions, but again it might be because I dirty flash over the existing install. Another side note I mentioned earlier, I am back on NK4. I am not saying NK4 is better or worse, just saying the last 2 builds I have been using a different baseband then I had been previously
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] dricacho:
Perhaps if the kernel panic gets more frequent, I can try going back to NK4. I just wish bluetooth stability gets better, as more updates come. It seems like it's a hit and miss. But then, there are some folks who swears that they have zero issues. I would like to know if those people use a different kernel than what came with the ROM.
