BTW, I can get the ROM to work, but without 3g/4g. I followed the IMEI backup and even attempted the return to froyo package, but when trying the first update on that package, I get "Update Failed". So I am stuck without mobile data it seems. :(

I went ahead and updated to this ROM, and it installs fine on my u8800-51. But, there are a few issues. First is that I cannot download or update any apps in the Google Play store, I get an error. Second is that overclocking is no longer available. The previous ROM let me boost the CPU to 1400 or so. Now I am stuck at the stock 800.

I love the theme of this ROM a lot, I just wish those 2 issues didn't exist.

(Also, still no 4g/3g... no clue why)


EDIT: I was able to get 4G working on HORSE V1 (I downgraded because I couldn't overclock on the new ROM).

Here is how I did it:

I downloaded a backup image of the stock 2.2 ROM, which was provided by savagehq, and linked in one of the topics skipped made.

I set the phone into pink screen mode and plugged it into my PC

I installed and opened Roadkil's Disk Image, I then burned the ROM image I downloaded to the phone (the physical disk that was around 3.6 GB)

After the burning/installation was finished I performed a factory reset using CWM.

I then reset the phone, and there I was back at stock 2.2 with working 4G.

I then rooted the phone and installed 5iromtoolbox.

I backed up the IMEI.

I then went back into CWM and installed HORSEV1, without doing any wipes.

I now have a working HORSEV1 ROM and working 4G. :)
Hopefully overclocking can be fixed on Power Black HORSE, then I will upgrade. =D

Thanks man, but its impossible. Many people attempted to find the "update.app" for u8800-51, but no one has it. Some people even contacted Huawei and their operators with no luck.. Thats why we have do go back to u8800-51 using an entire phone disk restore (from another person).

Ok , I search myself , and I didn't find anything .....
If you have a backup from stock rom , then open it and send me the , " system tar" file .... to see if I can do something with it .....

I tried to flash over V1, and that caused got rid of 4G again.

So I redid the entire process.

I can access 4G, but the google play store crashes when I open it now...


I get these 2 errors:

The process android.process.media has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.

The application Google Play Store (process com.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.

Try to install the stock vending.apk .....
Or , unzip the Horse v1 ,
Look at system/app
And find the applications that missing from Horse Black , and then ,, use root explorer to copy and paste the missing apps to , system/app ,,,,,, give permissions (rw-r--r--) ...... reboot ,and try to use market again ......

Btw , I don't know if ,skipped had the same problem as you with Horse black ....

Ok , skipped .....
BUT
I also noticed something strange with market ......
I use , Horse black , and after hitaxas told that has problem with market , I open market and I saw something strange ...... it saws only free apps and NON the paid apps, so I took the market app from Horse V1 , and replace it with market app , on , Horse Black ,
Then I delete data and reboot my phone .....
I opened market again , AND this time worked correctly , and shows all applications ( free and paid )
Still cannot understand , why this happened ,,,,,, because the versions are the same , but the version of Horse V1 , worked correctly ... and the version of Horse Black , not ....
I don't understand that ....
BTW , after the change I describe ,, market worked correct again ....

    this is great news gkalenis. can't wait to flash you new rom. i hate the white menu in froyo settings. is it going to be black the contacts menu also? :cyclops:

    All menu backgrounds are black , settings,contacts,etc....
    And i add a new .png file , that anyone can change the background with any image ( 480×800 ) he likes as background.
    I send you a p.m. to our greek forum to test the new framework_res_hwext.apk



    Would be nice to have update zip instead of flashig whole rom, or thats too complicated?

    Btw, what abaut other colors, are you planning more various themes like grey, gree&grey, black&orange etc etc :)

    I understand this takes time and you dont get any benefit from what you do to us, I'm just asking :)

    Sent from my U8800PRO


    Well zyzas , i can do a lot of theming now , i can change almost everything in framework and i can do it with flashable zip.
    Also others Horse Riders , asked me for other themes and colours and i have to tell you that i will support this rom with theming .
    I'm happy of learning a lot of thinks in XDA community , i don't care of benefits right now , i just want to learn more ... so i want a little patience from all of you to release more themes with new colours.
