hi,to all of you
first of all i'm not a developer
i'm just an u8800 pro owner
i'm very dissapointed from the developing of our great device ,and i think the one who blames most, is huawei...
why huawei released u8800 pro with froyo 2.2,and after a while started to release those buggy gingerbread updates ???
why huawei dont waiting to release u8800 pro with gingerbread 2.3.5 ???
why huawei after almost 5 months of b512 released,cannot still make a non bugs release ???
and as a result of these ,is that we dont have any custom rom for .32 kernel,as users of u8800 has a variety of custom roms for .32 kernel to used
and until huawei make a real stable gingerbread release i decide to tell you what i did,to official 2.2.2 froyo release to make it real fast and with great functionality...
first of all i would like to thank:
genocolar for his only one and great .32 o/c kernel
sajmons for his (How to root Huawei U8800 Pro ) guide
knzo(noejn) for his great thread: tweaks and scripts collection of em all
stamatis for his research on tweaks and scripts (helped me a lot)
zeppelin rox for kickasskernel,3g turbocharger and die hard battery calibration scripts
juwe11 for his s97ramscript ,or his app ,ram manager pro
ungaze for his great libsqlite.so for 2.2
LETS GO
1.download and install cwm recovery 5.0.2.7 from here (via pink screen ) http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1343276
then press and hold ,vol+ and power on, to boot into recovery
choose the option "backup and restore" and do a "backup"
7.UNZIP the 2.2.2.MOD_folder.zip and you will find a folder called "system"
inside the system folder you will find three folders ("etc","framework" and "lib") ,and a "build.prop"....
put "system" folder somewhere in your sd card(wherever you like)
8.now use root explorer and open your sd card and go to where you put the "system" folder,then open the "etc" folder and you will find the "init.d" folder,copy the "init.d" folder and paste it ,as it is, in ,system/etc ,,then open init.d and give to all archives you'll see inside ,one by one ,permissions (rwxrwxrwx)
go again to your sd card and open now the "framework" folder and you'll find "framework.jar",copy this and paste it(replace) to ,system/framework and give permissions (rw-r--r--)
back again to sd and now copy "build.prop",and paste it to, system (before paste the modified "build.prop",,rename the original "build.prop" to "build.prop.bak") and give permissions (rw-r--r--)
then reboot your phone
you'll have to wait a bit longer(2-3 minutes) to boot again but dont worry,just wait...
then open root explorer again and open your sd card and go to where you put the "system" folder and open now "lib" folder,copy "libsqlite.so" and paste it (replace) to ,system/lib ,give permissions (rw-r--r--)....the phone gonna turns off and on by itself..put your pin numper and enjoy your new phone
i'm not responsible for anything bad happens to your phone...in my area a lot of people using this mod without any bugs...
HAVE ALWAYS A NANDROID BACKUP IN YOUR SD CARD BEFORE TRYING THESE MODDS
i also using
1.ram manager pro
2.kickasskernel and die hard battery callibrator scripts
PS
maybe nobody needs these modds,but the new owners may want to try this modds before upgrading to gingerbread
and sorry for my english...
BTW...
i'll never buy any product who has huawei firmware again .....those people in huawei are not serious...

Are you greek ??
If you're from greece , we have the steps , in a greek forum....
Unfortunately you cannot downgrade to wind's rom ,, but you can downgrade , to official germany 2.2.2 rom ...
It has greek language , but no greek keyboard ( this is not a problem )..
Just two days ago a friend found a way to go back , from kalo's rom to 2.2.2 ,, he tested those mods and told me that its the fastest and most functional rom untill now ....
You'll never found ,not a single bug..
But give me some time to find the links , cause i'm at work right now..
PS
I stayed here , because i saw that the development of our phones , really sucks....
The most reliable rom of all , is kalo's rom , and i suggested it to all friends who upgrades....
But if you like to test also the modded stock 2.2.2 rom , then give me some time to found the links...
but never tried it, I was looking for stock firmware ( for warranty, in case.. ) and someone in italian forum suggested this file. I think that german stock firmware may be a better choice. Many thanks again

Ok , doesn't matter ,,
Maybe the firmware you have its ok.... but i'll send you the links from german stock 2.2.2 ( ....B025)... and i need some time to translate the guide ( how to get back to froyo )..
Untill tomorrow , i'll post it here...
my phone is from Vodafone Italy and in the original ROM there was some in-utility!! + unwanted "logos" and animation
unbearable disappointments
I can understand if "Vodafone gives me a great phone for free but I can only use this phone with Vodafone"
(once the italian vodafone rom was on Huawei site but it's disappeared very fast and seems that no one has downloaded and stored it )
but the smartphone (not supported) is sold at 199 €
The german stock 2.2.2 rom has all languages ,, but the problem was on keyboard languages because dont have greek lang.....
Italian and spanish languages existing and at keyboard ,, you'll not have any problems with italian and spanish ..... the problem was with greek lang... and you'll have to download a greek keyboard ....
So you dont have any problems with your languages ...
Ps
Mario , i think that you're not gonna have any problems with vodafone ,,,, because the same thing is happening in greece but with Wind , not vodafone as you have it in italy...... and at the same price ( 199€)
Ps 2
seryioo , i dont think that you're gonna have problems with german rom ,, its a european rom and spanish language included
extract the content of the .zip file
you will found , a .pdf guide
do the first steps .........
when you finished with the first step ,, update app (1,11mb),,, phone reboots ,,,,,,,
right after first reboot
pull out battery
pull out sd card
delete the ,, update app (1,11mb) ,, from ,dload, folder and copy the other ,, update app (255mb) ,, inside the ,dload, folder
insert sd card
insert battery
and do as you did with first step, ( vol+ ,vol- ,power on )
when it finished ,the phone will reboot (dont worry ,it needs some more time to boot) on stock 2.2.2 firmware
after that follow the proccedure , described in the first post
BEWARE
YOU CANNOT FLASH ANY ROM , OVER THE STOCK 2.2.2 FIRMWARE , AND EVEN YOU CANNOT RESTORE THE BACKUPS YOU HAVE, FROM ANY OTHER ROM , DON'T GONNA WORKS
IF YOU WANT TO FLASH A ROM OR RESTORE A BACKUP , YOU'LL HAVE TO UPGRADE AGAIN TO AN OFFICIAL 2.3.5 FIRMWARE
Thanks to , Termagazis for his guide
PS
a friend who did it ,, told me that before launch the first step ,he did a full wipe from recovery ( data, cache ,dalvik cache ),, then pulled out the battery , and inserted the sd card with ,, dload ,, folder ( the .pdf guide didn't tells that , so do as you wish )
@ marios
probably you can use the firmware that you alleady have downloaded , after you finish with the first step ,because if you saw inside the .pdf , you'll find that the lithouanian firmware is very similar with italian ( take a look and , do as you wish )
allso , if you like , you can upload the firmware you allready have ,on mediafire or wherever you like , so we'll have two stock 2.2 firmwares ( because as you see ,its very difficult to find a 2.2 firmware to download )
