- 7.2 cyanogenmod gingerbread huawei u8150
Anyone out there?I can't believe nobody is interested in this device anymore!
It isn't that people are not interested in this device anymore. it's just that people want ICS or Jellybean. Already there's a working CM 9.1 which is a port of Psyke 's cm9.1 for u8160/80 which I'm currently using. Also tilal is working on CM10.1 for u8150 to be published soon.There are also Cm10.1 nightlies for this device at Jenkins.org. It's working port though a bit more work is needed. Much work is going on behind the scenes.
This port is very smooth. Only issue is contacts is rather laggy. perhaps there's little free ram.
Will this ROM work on a Huawei M835?
will this ROM work on a Huawei M835? If not, can someone please link me to the right post/thread/download? Much appreciated, thanks!

48Introduction
CyanogenMod is an aftermarket firmware for a number of cell phones based on the open-source Android operating system. It offers features not found in the official Android-based firmwares of vendors of these cell phones.
History (standing on the shoulders of giants)
CyanogenMod has been under development for the U8150 since early 2011. In the beginning marcnvidic started off by getting the Android device tree organized and getting initial builds working. After that tilal6991 made great progress with basic functionality, bugs, etc. I joined initially to learn about the AOSP/CyanogenMod build system, but have helped clean up the device tree, fixing a few bugs, and keeping up with the latest upstream CyanogenMod changes.
Download
Note: The CyanogenMod build server builds CM7.x releases for the U8150 once a week. I don't have time to update builds manually here anymore. Find CM builds here: http://get.cm/

Source
- Kernel: http://github.com/alanorth/kernel_huawei_u8160
- Device tree: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_huawei_u8150
- Pending patches: http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#q,status:open+project:CyanogenMod/android_device_huawei_u8150,n,z
Known issues*
- Development tools like adb and DDMS see the device as "????????????" instead of showing the serial number (related to the Wifi MAC issue below)
- The wifi MAC address is not read from hardware, it is set statically (see here, possible fix).
- FM Radio (probably won't get fixed)
- Battery usage slightly worse than stock (terrible in some cases)
- Overclocking frequencies not as stable as stock or on U8150 kernel (due to the voltages used in the U8160 kernel sources we're using, see arch/arm/mach-msm/acpuclock-7x30.c)

- Location of "home" soft key
Thanks
- marcnvidic - initial CM6 port, device tree, etc.
- tilal6991 - holding the candle for so many months after marcnvidic left, lots of bug fixes, device tree work, etc
- subpsyke/psyke83 - being a badass, fixing lots of stuff in his Huawei U8160 port which also helped us.
- CyanogenMod team (koush, defer, turl, et al for helping me when I'm stuck with repo, git, gerrit, etc).
9May 17th nightly
Hey, guys and gals. I've got a pretty big update, so I need you to test and give me feedback. subpsyke made a lot of progress all over the board, so I've spent a few days integrating and testing his changes, and I feel it is now stable enough to release for broader testing.

Flash
Flash with ClockworkMod Recovery. A wipe shouldn't be necessary... but PLEASE backup with Nandroid / BackupSMS / Titanium / etc first, just in case I'm wrong. I wiped a million times in the process of testing in the last week so I'm not entirely sure.
Lots of changes, guys! Depending on your feedback I'll push some of these features upstream to CM, so please try to be helpful.8March 6th nightly
I just posted a new nightly for March 6th on the first post. I haven't fixed any new bugs in this release, just synced the latest sources with CyanogenMod upstream. It's up to you if you want to flash. If you're bored, flash it. If you can't be bothered, then skip it.

There are lots of things I still want to look at (especially in the kernel, such as subpsyke's wireless driver, patches from the mainline kernel, simple IO scheduler, etc...) when I get time. CyanogenMod 7.2 might be released soon but I'll keep posting nightlies with fixes whether we're at 7.2 or 7.9!7Yes, when flashing a new ROM (or simply upgrading to "the newer one"...) you'll loose ALL the apps, phonebook, SMS, etc etc...
That's why in both cases (new installation or upgrade) it's suggested to do a "nandroid" (a complete backup done within ClockWorkMod Recovery..latest suggested version is 5.0.2.7..), so when you flash or upgrade to the newer ROM you SHOULD be able to do an "advanced restore" and restore only "user data" from the backup you created.
BUT....actually ClockWorkMod 5.0.2.7 has a bug when you attempt to do an "advanced restore"...it says "no file found"..it's a bug that I encountered on my own U8150-D and also read on some posts...
Asking to everyone in the forum: did you met the same bug when attempting an advanced restore with CWM 5.0.2.7?
If yes, did you managed or found a fix for this bug? (I can remember CWM 5.0.2.6 hadn't the same bug but in some cases gave problems with USB sync...if me not mistake). Shall I downgrade to CWM 5.0.2.6 to make an advanced restore from a restore made with CWM 5.0.2.7 or it'll be better to do a backup of all the apps with Titanium Backup and restore those backup within the new installed ROM?
Thanx for any suggestion/idea.
You're absolutely right, ClockworkMod 5.0.2.7 has a problem with advanced restores; 5.0.2.8 fixes it. I've updated the first post with download links. Here's one for now (more later):
ClockworkMod Recovery (5.0.2.8): BayFiles (md5: 1b835fb177a0aab362c226f07158bb59)
Thanks!
edit: another mirror here: goo-inside.me6April 5th nightly
w00t. Audio issues completely fixed (thanks to U8160 user, ac1953). Also, new kernel with some tweaks, stability enhancements, and updates.
Flash with ClockworkMod Recovery (not UltraJack). No wipe necessary, unless you're coming from a January or older build.

If anyone can upload to MediaFire that'd be great. My Internet sucks right now.
