Chinese Miui v5 (official)

You tried this yet? Do we have things like gapps and English included, and is it stable, as I could find nothing about it online.

Sent from my U9200 using xda app-developers app

The official miui v5 has an english setting.
Its stable
gapps are not included but i think linked in the first post
dolby eq settings have been on and didnt cause problems, but i dont now if they actually worked cause i didnt compare it (have an another rom on my phone now)
the battery use is quite normal i guess
the system is a bit heavy on the ram (70-90% full)
Antutu benchmark score a bit over 20k

Android caches ram in the jvm, disk, and apps that are running. Quite a bit of caching going on. It knows what is doing and will release it when necessary. Really nothing to worry about. Earlier versions weren't quite as smart about releasing and reallocating memory but its been good for some time mostly because of Dalvik jvm optimizations.There's no advantage to empty RAM. It does nothing for you.

If you go a few pages back you'll find a patch to temporarily show them in English as well

I really like MIUI on the U9510e. First non-stock rom I've used that is good for daily use. Can be a little sluggish at times and takes a lot of RAM, but everything seems to work (including Dolby Digital, using any music app). Some little bugs (like date stays at YYYY/MM/DD no matter what i set) but nothing too serious. Also battery life is great, not worse than stock. Does anybody know if Geno will continue to release MIUI for this phone? OTA upgrade doesn't work, I guess because it's an unofficial port(?)

Guys, how do you install the new stock ROM B552 after being installed the custom ROM 542?
I've reflashed the original recovery and boot to recovery (power+vol), but once I'm in, the flasher didn't recognized the dload folder.
But when I tried to follow the tutorial from MUI web to flash it from setting menu, the option is already gone (due to custom ROM I presume).
I've been getting SD Card not recognized from time-to-time and the 3G has been very unstable, so any stable ROM to version suggest?

Thanks!

Hi, im on build 631 right now and i like it alot, the only downside with it that i can find is that the GPS is really bad, when i use it in the traffic it looses the signal all the time or show the wrong position, and when i use it as golf GPS to see the distance to hole, it takes forever to lock my possition, and its not very accurate.
And i wonder about AnZhi app thats preinstalled with the ROM, is it some chinese version of play store? is it safe to uninstall all the stuff with chinese signs on it?

It's safe to uninstall everything in Chinese, I do it everytime.

You might want to try Faster GPS from the play store and define your local settings. It's helped for me though it's still a little slow to lock.

miui v5 rom review

There is an official version of miui v5 (android 4.1.2).
Its just the chinese version but you can set it to english so only a few apps remain in chinese.
miui.com/getrom.php?r=58

Hope i could help someone :)

Tried this rom. Overall performs quite well though not sure how you got Antutu over 20000 (best I could get was low 16000).
Not quite good enough as a daily driver for me yet compared the modded B550 rom (additional rom details in post# 594) due to the following among other things:
  • Settings getting randomly changed every so often giving a "buggy" feeling
  • Slightly slower camera speed between pictures
  • After saving favorite songs, these saves got lost after some time
  • Bluetooth music playback sometimes choppy
  • Really high ram usage limiting multitasking capability

I have now reverted back to the modded B550 rom saved through nandroid backup.

    Hello Everyone,

    Below is a tutorial I have compiled and translated from bbs.anzhi.com on how to update your Huawei Ascend D1 Quad XL (U9510E) to the latest version of Android offered by EmotionUI, Jelly Bean 4.1.2:

    First of all, I want to give credit where credit is due:
    genokolar (aka G大) - Creator/Modder of the Custom Recovery for this, and many other phones coming out of China
    Ry09iu (aka R大) - Creator of a Rooted ROM based on EmotionUI B534, which is based on Android 4.1.2
    【LUV】 - The board moderator for the D1Quad section of bbs.anzhi, also who's ROM release I used for my phone, but it's upto you to choose which one you want to use

    **IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED FOR YOU TO ATTEMPT THIS IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE WITH FLASHING PHONES. IN THE CHANCE THAT YOU BRICK YOUR PHONE, I CANNOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR IT**

    **DON'T FORGET TO BACKUP YOUR FILES!!**

    Now that the credits and the warning are given, let's get started:

    Required Tools:
    1. Recovery 6.0.1.9: This tool will open in command prompt and will allow you to flash in the Custom Recovery created by genokolar, as well as the stock recovery released by Huawei. Mirror


    2(a).Official ROMs:

    i. Official EmotionUI ROM B551 (Updated January 11, 2013): Release Notes

    2(b).Custom ROMs:

    i. Rooted Version of EmotionUI Rom (Author: genokolar):
    - B534 Download

    ii. Rooted Version of EmotionUI Rom (Author: Ry09iu):
    - B534 Download
    - B538 Download

    iii. Rooted Version of EmotionUI Rom with HOLO as default Launcher (Author: Ry09iu, Modded by LUV):
    - B534 Download
    - B538 Download
    - B542 Download

    iv. MIUI V4.1 - converted from MIUI V4.1 for Honor 2 (Author: Ry09iu):


    3. GApps [Jelly Bean 4.1.2 (Author goo.im/gapps)]: Download

    *The roms are hosted in China so the download will be slow, please be patient and your download will be done in an hour or two :)*

    **PLEASE PLACE THE ROM YOU WISH TO UES INTO YOUR EXTERNAL SD CARD BEFORE CONTINUING**

    Step 1: Flashing Custom Recovery
    1. Turn-on USB debugging on your phone [Settings -> Developer Settings -> USB debugging]
    2. Plug in your Phone to your computer via USB for it to install the appropriate drivers*
    3. Run recovery6.0.1.4_AscendD1Q.exe
    3.5 If your system locale is set to anything other than Chinese, you will get this:
    13537413.png

    But what you should see is this:
    grecovery.png

    What that means is: said:
    **-1. Flash Chinese Custom Recovery-**
    **-2. Recover Official Recovery-**
    ##-3.Reboot phone into Recovery-##
    4. Type in "1" and press Enter -> This Recovery Flasher will do what it's made to do and when it's completed, your phone will now have a custom recovery.
    5. The application will automatically close 10 seconds after the Recovery has been successfully flashed.

    Note from Genokolar said:
    1. The development of this Custom Recovery was done through email with Huawei so it may be lacking certain features, a full custom recovery will be released as soon as responds him
    2. This recovery will only flash from an external SD Card, internal SD card flash is not yet supported
    3. At the time of this Custom Recovery being posted, no third-party ROM has been released, therefore it has not been tested <- No longer the case
    4.This recovery can be used to Root the EMUI ROMs released by Huawei
    5. When you need to flash back to the original ROM releases by Huawei, or receive OTA updates from Huawei, please flash back the original Recovery

    *If the drivers do not install properly, please download the driver attached in this post and install it manually.

    Step 2: ROM Flashing
    1. Boot your phone into the new recovery. (either by starting the application again and selecting option 3, or press and hold the Power Button with Volumn Up)
    2. You will be greeted by the Custom Recovery Screen show below:
    recoveryo.jpg

    [*] Reboot system now

    [*] Select zip to flash/install

    [*] Wipe data

    [*] Wipe cache

    [*] Backup and restore

    [*] Flash memory/Format

    [*] Advanced setting

    [*] Turn off phone
    3. Scroll to select option 3 (Wipe data), confirm the wipe
    4. Scroll to select option 4 (Wipe cache), confirm the wipe as well
    5. Scroll to select option 2 (Select zip to flash/install)
    applyupdatefromsdcard.jpg

    [*] Select zip from SD Card to Flash

    [*] Install /sdcard/update.zip

    [*] Activate/Deactivate Signature Verification

    [*] Install from external zip
    <-- Back to previous screen
    6. Scroll to and select option 4 (Install from external zip)
    7. Scroll to and select the zip file of the ROM which you have previously downloaded and placed into your external SD Card, confirm the flash
    7.5. At this point, you can either flash in the gapps right away, or flash it after rebooting into the OS. I chose to flash it after booting into the OS for the first, but I don't think it will cause any problems. I will be posting the way I did it, and if you guys did it the other way, let us know if it worked or not

    *IMPORTANT NOTE*
    When you're booting up your system out from Recovery, you will be asked whether or not you would want your ROM to auto update the recovery, shown below:
    updaterecovery.jpg

    [*] Yes - Forbid Auto Update of Recovery

    [*] Cancel - Back
    <-- Return to previous
    Please select the one being highlighted in the image, which is option 2 ([*] Cancel - Back). OR CONSEQUENCES WILL NEVER BE THE SAME!

    Step 3: Flashing GApps
    1. Boot into recovery
    2. Scroll to and select option 4 (Install from external zip)
    3. Scroll to and select the zip file of GApps you have downloaded "gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip" or whatever you may have renamed it to, confirm the flash
    4. Reboot into OS
    5. *THE NOTE ABOVE STILL APPLIES, SO HERE IT IS AGAIN*
    *IMPORTANT NOTE*
    When you're booting up your system out from Recovery, you will be asked whether or not you would want your ROM to auto update the recovery, shown below:
    updaterecovery.jpg

    [*] Yes - Forbid Auto Update of Recovery

    [*] Cancel - Back
    <-- Return to previous
    Please select the one being highlighted in the image, which is option 2 ([*] Cancel - Back). OR CONSEQUENCES WILL NEVER BE THE SAME!

    Step 4: ALL DONE!
    Congratulations, assuming everything was done properly, and everything worked out, now you will have Android 4.1.2 on your Huawei Ascend D1 Quad XL.

    Images not showing up in your GooglePlay Store? YouTube not working?
    Here is how our very own 12andy fixed the problem:


    UPDATE: So using a clear hosts breaks the ability to connect to Facebook (via app and website). It's best to use AdAway, instead.

    Nvana, it's the same process we've been using to flash the Chinese ROM(s), but with the added step of "fixing" the hosts file:
    • download SmartHosts from Goole Play (free)
    • tap on "Toggle hosts file" button
    • select "Clean hosts file"

    And you're done! Rebooting wasn't necessary either, as the images started loading immediately.
