At first you need root, then you need an app that can do this. I used /system/app mover which is free at Google Play Store.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] omniphil:
I could never get that app to work, it just sits there at "Acquiring root access"
[Huawei MediaPad X2] ajsmsg78:
Buy root explorer its awesome and what you can use.

hello new to the huawei devices coming from samsung.i have the gem 702 model can i flash this on the 702 or is this rom for the gem703 model,or do i have to convert my 702 to a 703 first.thanks
[Huawei MediaPad X2] ajsmsg78:
As long as you update to stock B202 first through OTA or manually with thd dload method, you'll be able to flash any rom.

Does Kangvip rom keep Huawei device manager?

I dont like it as it causes so many unnecessary blockings...

I want it to be removed.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] ajsmsg78:
Do you mean the Phone Manager? Yes it does. If you remove the Phone Manager (HwSystemManager.apk) you won't have Do Not Disturb mode and there are a few other things that won't work properly.

[MENTION=1397125]ajsmsg78[/MENTION] In OP you mention viper4Android as preinstalled.

This is missing, but important, because the newest version seems not not work. 2.3.4.0 was ok.

Still dark fontcolour on dark menus on your dark theme. Example: xposes module download menu dropdownmenu.

Better make your dark theme not as default.

Generally: we can install TWRP on recovery2:

Fastboot flash recovery2 TWRPxxx.img.

So no need for reinstalling stock recovery on the updating process. Simply let it USB connected and press vol up on boot leads into twrp. If not USB connected it launches stock recovery instead. (Needed for reset)

Only if there is a automatic reboot into recovery for TWRP (for example xposed installer) you must press vol up.

My device: 701->703 B211 xposed 86
[Huawei MediaPad X2] kusutaku:
Thank you for your reply.

Yeah, I meant Phone Manager.

I want to have clean and original android as much as possible.

Phone Manager often blocks notifications and kill application even if I configure perfectly.

So, I disable it with root TituniumBackup whenever I upgrade android version.

I wonder if anyone can build Cyanogenmod for X2...
[Huawei MediaPad X2] audioralf:
This is a result of restore backuped apps.

Clear data for phone manager in apps.

Then the database will be rebuild.

All apps will pop up config message on fist start. Then autostart and notification work again.

My device: 701->703 B211 xposed 86
[Huawei MediaPad X2] ajsmsg78:
It will still be the default theme as some third party apps may have text issues but everything can't be themed or I'd be here all day. I like the dark theme, it's what made me want to use my X2 again and I know a lot of people enjoy it for what it is. TWRP is so easy to flash as well as the stock recovery so it doesn't even matter what partition you flash it on. You can have both twrp and the stock recovery on your phone or SD card and flash either one right in TWRP so I'm not worried about that. I hope everything else is working in the new build for everyone, everything works great for me. Viper4Android is installed. Do you mean that I should revert back to the old version in my rom? It seems like it's working for me.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] audioralf:
Yes this is what I wanted to confirm. It's useful to have both recoverys at the same time.

I upgraded a 701 from b003 to 211 KV last version 7-27-16

last night and spared time not to refresh the stock recovery.

At the end I missed viper4a

It had no icon on screen.

But yes you are right. I remember it's hidden in KangVIP menu more settings.

But this version prompts me to update the driver. Then its 2.4.0.1 and works.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] frankf75:
Great ROM

I just finished installing this ROM on my GEM-701L B003. (Device was not rooted, so I went through all the steps Unlock bootloader, root, 701B003 to 703 B015 to B106 to B112 to B209 to KankVIP Slim)

It seems there is something with WIFI.

While installing my apps from Google Play downloading was very slow. It showed 0B/S for 2 minutes and then download 1 or 2 apps then again couple of minutes nothing. It took almost an hour to download 30+ apps.

Anyone else encountered this kind of behavior?
[Huawei MediaPad X2] audioralf:
Did you perform the factory resets on 015 and 106? I had once a WiFi problem on 111 or so. But after reboot if was gone. Toggle to 5 ghz avg back to 2.4. Make speed test to compare.

Do not expect more than 40 mbit/s

My device: 701->703 B211 xposed 86
[Huawei MediaPad X2] ajsmsg78:
It always prompted me to update the driver in each version of KangVIP.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] ajsmsg78:
Did you make sure you enabled Wifi staying on while the screen is off in Wifi Advanced settings?
[Huawei MediaPad X2] audioralf:
Maybe you have a 5 GHz repeater or Second wlan same network name. Then the device could try to check in the other network and interrupt download.

My device: 701->703 B201 xposed
[Huawei MediaPad X2] shaolin95:
Yes the 5Ghz indeed seems to behave very bad to me as well. I did a test from the same spot that my Note 10.1 2014 gets over 120Mb and my Xperia Z Ultra gets 90Mb, this X2 only gets around 30Mb. Worst is that it seems inconsistent and I get issues like that when updating apps or watching videos. On the 2.4Ghz signal it seems steadier. It is the main issue I have with it but still so far I am dealing with it.

I am using the international build now and its ok so far. Also not getting Searching for GPS on that build either since I flashed it which happened on this build for me a few times.

Jury still up on which one I prefer. :)
[Huawei MediaPad X2] frankf75:
Thank you everybody for the tips, but it seems shaolin95 got a point there. I switched to my 2.4GHz router and it seems working without any probleem for the moment.

I did lots of testing but never thought to use my 2.4GHz network. Strange thing is only internet was behaving badly. I could copy a 2GB file from PC through the same router(5GHz) and it gave me a steady 2.8 to 3.1 mb/s(which is very very slow). But a youtube video paused every 20 sec or so.

Anyway it seems to be working for the moment.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] shaolin95:
Exactly what was happening to me with youtube as well. Interestingly on the same 5Ghz connection my upload is a bit faster than the downloads so not sure what the problem is. For now, it may seem the international is working better in that regards although still nowhere near my other devices which is a shame. Never expected a device from these era to have Wifi issues. Last time I had something like this was the Asus Transfer "Piece of Crap" edition that Asus dropped on us for which they had to give us a GPS dongle cause the included one was not working, had horrible Wifi and a camera which turned into green vision for every owner and they never issued a recall. :/
[Huawei MediaPad X2] audioralf:
Wi-Fi is in the kernel. Maybe Huawei experimented on this because Wi-Fi on x2 is slower than on other devices.

I don't know what happens if you would flash the boot.img from b202. AJ made that trick with 201 where he combined the 211 boot l.img to the 201 Rom.

My device: 701->703 B201 xposed
[Huawei MediaPad X2] shassouneh:
This might be a bit of a stretch of an ask but worth a shot. IN the "next" version of the ROM, can something be done to stop the built in Huawei memory management? I've always struggled with background apps in particular that the Huawei ROMs love to kill whenever it deems it "necessary" to free up memory (even when I have 1+ GB of free RAM available). And yes setting them as "protected" apps didn't do the trick. Whatsapp messages / calls end up being missed 90% of the time because of this. Only workaround is I have to make sure the app in question (Whatsapp / Hangouts / etc) remains open and I am very careful to never close it using the trash icon.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] audioralf:
I offer a root and upgrade service if you live inside the EU and send me the device. Send me a PM if you are interested.

If you are german, we have a nice community on "android-hilfe.de"
[Huawei MediaPad X2] ajsmsg78:
On the next build I'll be changing the install format of the rom. Instead of the old way of having everything in folders it will be in the system-new.dat format. This way the updater-script plays a little less of a role. Everything seems to work better this way. I'll be testing a build when i get back from vacation on Monday. Turn wifi on during sleep, as well as mobile data, add the apps to stay on when the screen shuts off and grant them all permissions in permissions manager and move them from data/app to system/app if the problem persists. This has helped me have my apps stay running in the background but I know it's not 100 percent working for some of us. You can always delete HWSystemManager.apk from system/app to stop the problem. On my Mi Max there is an option in developer options to turn MIUI optimizations off which basically fixes all this. I wish Huawei would include something with EMUI.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] ForgottenSolstace:
Working Great

Just installed on my GEM-703L. Working smooth on my end. I did do a step-by-step guide on how to root the GEM-703L.

Note that I had to wait roughly 5 minutes upon first booting to the newly-installed ROM. I would guess this has to do with de-odexing, but not sure. Just be patient once you install.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] gubbilo144:
I tried to install xposed from your k settings. It did the install but didn't boot past the huawei screen. I let it sit for like 15 mins. Is there a different version we need to use with 6.0,thanks
[Huawei MediaPad X2] omniphil:
This has been the biggest problem with Huawei phones for me for a while now. Recently I have found a way to make it much better (but still not 100%)

You gotta be rooted however.

I usually just Freeze the Phone Manager app with Titanium backup, this helps alot with things closing, for stubborn apps someone here suggested trying "/system/app mover" in the play store. It makes it easy to move app into the System area and the Huawei memory manager is much less likely to kill them. Its not 100%, but it has made my phone reliable in getting messages while its asleep.

Huawei need to stop their optimizations. Its hurting a ton of non Huawei apps. Android 6 does an awesome job on its own, just leave it be.

---------- Post added at 09:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:53 AM ----------

Great news! My smartwatch not sincronice with my phone correctly, notifications wasap, mail, ... I love this rom and i'll be in kangvip. Thanks for your work
[Huawei MediaPad X2] shassouneh:
This may be a bit of "feature creep" but worth asking in my opinion.

In the next version(s) of the ROM, would it be possible to somehow force Google Play store to ALWAYS install / update to the SD card? I'm finding that whenever there's an app update in the store, it will force install it to internal storage, even if the app was moved previously to SD card. This is annoying and can eat into the already limited internal space.

And yes Settings -> Advanced Settings -> Memory & Storage -> Default location is already set to SD card. Despite this, Play store ignores this and always updates to internal storage.

Also, what would be the best way to suggest changes to future versions of the ROM? would it be this thread here?
[Huawei MediaPad X2] ajsmsg78:
That's what Android does any time an app is updated. It puts it in data/app. I don't know of a way to fix this. You can post any requests in this thread and I'll do my best but some things just aren't possible with EMUI.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] shassouneh:
Yeah bummer. EMUI has a mind of it's own, but hey at least it's not that god awful bloatware-laden creation known as TouchWiz

Internal storage dropped down to 4 gb ?

Hi,

Im' new with this nice mediapad X2 phablet, i like it very much !

I was playing with this rom few times, util this morning where i noticed, after successful install, that my internal storage has dropepd to around 4 gb (instead of 32 gb normally) ??

I checked disc with root explorer and made small clean, but i was showing "2.1 gb free from only 4 gb"

in Twrp, i did full wipe and erease internal storage .

What wrong/dirty thing was made ??.

How can retrieve an internal storage with 32 gb ?

[Huawei MediaPad X2] ajsmsg78:
Each time you fastboot flash the stock userdata.img when the phone boots up you have to do a factory reset and choose to wipe internal storage. If you don't then you'll be stuck with that issue. The best thing to do is fastboot flash back to stock again then factory reset and select erase internal storage, then when you boot up you'll see the proper amount of storage again.

I'm not an expert but you can test to reflash the rom
[Huawei MediaPad X2] Ross Kay:
Hi guys, I hope my post in this thread Is correct but I wanted to report few issues I'm having with this ROM.

I've installed the B211 following the correct process two weeks ago. In a way I really like it. It's smooth, fast and well made however I've noticed few issues that are annoying me a bit:

Notifications: When a message is received the screen goes on quickly for seconds than goes off. If I turn it on on the screensaver mode it doesn't show the notification. I have to unlock the screen to actually see the message there in the main screen. This doesn't happen with other notifications like Google Store etc.

What's app works randomly fine. Sometime shows notifications sometime it doesn't. Sometime, when I unlock the screen it shows me a small window with a preview of the message.

The phone gets really hot at the right back side close to the simcard slot. You can feel it holding in hand the phone is roasting. What could it be?

Widgets get stuck. Weather, clock and other widgets don't refresh even with refresh settings properly checked. I suspect this is the phone manager app and permission which is another issue I've already mentioned here.

It stops every app for everything and I have to keep giving permissions.

I've managed to get the SuperSU code updated but then after few days it said again that SuperSU needed binary code to be updated. And since then I can't root anything again!!

When I was on ROM 111slim I never had any issue whatsoever. I would like to keep this 6.0 because it's faster but I'm feed up with these problems here and there.

Did I do something wrong or it's the ROM that requires more customization after being installed?
[Huawei MediaPad X2] shassouneh:
@ ajsmsg78

I think I may have found a "bug" in this ROM.

The phone dialer always, without fail, will refuse to dial out. It will either

1.) Silently ignore the dial out and return to the dialer

or

2.) Display some toast message "call not sent"

The workaround is to clear Data for the Dialer app, but this needs to be done literally EVERY SINGLE TIME I wish to make a call.

It is worthy of note that I have the Google Voice app installed (as well as Hangouts) in order to get phone integration.

Note: This repros 100% of the time even after a fresh reboot!

Any thoughts?
[Huawei MediaPad X2] ajsmsg78:
I've tried to recreate that bug but can't. Every call dials out fine. I use Google Voice as well but just for voicemail.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] shassouneh:
Thank you for your concern.

Not sure what's going on. I'll try un-installing GV and re-installing and see if it fixes it I suppose. My phone battery is dead at the moment, so it will have to wait.

---------- Post added at 05:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:53 PM ----------

Ok I have verified that's indeed the Google Voice App (not to be confused with hangouts). This App allows me to use the native dialer and still have my GV outgoing caller ID. Once I uninstalled the app I was able to make an outgoing call (albeit without GV caller ID masking).

Back to the drawing board I guess...

Hi Guys,

Quick update on the issues I've mentioned:

I can't manage to get message notifications showing as normal. I tried everything. I've reflashed the rom without app backup (just in case there was something wrong with the restore process.

The issue remains.

Also I keep receiving messages like: "Facebook was stopped from launching instragram" or "what's app was stopped from accessing to.." etc.

The phone lost functionality, at least for me.

If there is no solution for these two issues I'll revert to the B111 cause it's getting annoying.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] ajsmsg78:
You need to go into Dropzone management (you can get there in Phone Manager) and check whatever apps you want to be allowed to access another app. You need to set the battery mode to performance in settings as well. You need to go into wifi settings and enable wifi on during sleep. Same with mobile data. In permission manager make sure the app is allowed to stay running after the screen shuts off. If apps like whatsapp aren't showing notifications when the phone is off, move them from data/app to system/app. These are the things we've had to do since Android 5.0 on the X2 .
