MIUI
- Both official English (miuiandroid.com) and Chinese (miui.com) ROMs are rooted and comes without GAPPS.
- Language packs for the English version were (might still be) available from miuiandroid.com.
- Chinese versions contains a Chinese modified Google Play Store-app which is illegal and not working outside China.
MIUIandroid.com (English) was making official ROMs for U9200, but they sadly stopped developing after version 3.2.11. If you want no-chinese MIUI without too much hassle, it's recommended to get 2.12.29 (MIUI v4, ICS based). They might remove old ROMs from their servers, therefore I've uploaded 2.12.29 to my mega account: https://mega.nz/#!ao5RAKrQ!MhwfLnFI9M5WdInhST6Llki8OGpdvvCNFIo4UDlY71U
MIUI.com (Chinese) stopped official development at build 3.2.11. Weekly, unofficial MIUI v5. JB 4.2 based builds are available here: http://en.miui.com/thread-2651-1-1.html
It contains stuff not working outside china. Some modifications (Uninstall chinese apps, modify GPS-files, install GAPPS, install Google Keyboard) is needed to get this ROM working. It seems pretty stable, and all basic functions work. MIUI v5 is beautiful and simple, so give it a try!
MIUI v5 | Android 4.2.x
Chinese ports: http://en.miui.com/download-26.html
MIUI v4 | Android 4.0.x
European latest stable (12.19.29): https://mega.nz/#!ao5RAKrQ!MhwfLnFI9M5WdInhST6Llki8OGpdvvCNFIo4UDlY71U

Custom recovery
Flashable ZIPs with recovery inside?
1. Download this .ZIP and the recovery you want
2. Rename the downloaded recovery to "recovery.img"
3. Open the "flashable_recovery.zip" with 7-zip or similar
4. Put "recovery.img" inside it (drag and drop)
5. You now have a flashable ZIP with chosen recovery inside.
TWRP (Is also used for rooting stock FW )
.img → TWRP v2.4.4.0 by faust93. Stuff seems to work.
CWM (Non-Touch)
.img → CWM v6.0.1.9 by faust93. It includes stock recovery without having to switch recovery.img.
CWMt (Touch)
.img → CWMt v5.8.4.5. Unofficial beta port in English, everything seem to work.
PhilZ Touch (CWM Advanced)
Stock Huawei recovery is available in the "FlashPacks" I've made. They also contain build.prop and boot.img.
GAPPS
OpenGapps
OpenGapps offers GAPPS for Android 4.4.x and newer, in different sizes.
I'd go with 'Pico' for Ascend P1.

It's not official build. It says Author: helinchun
I've heard it's good, but i don't like installing chinese roms
Too bad. You will never know what you are missing :silly:
If you'd make a quick review (having tested CM PACMan), maybe it would get more attention. How much bloatware does it have?
Hi o-l-a-v, could you include in your guide some kernels and the way to install them?

Olav, not sure if you still own P1. But what are your prefferences? which ROM do you use?
I see most ppl went to CM10.1. then the Emui and third PACMAN.
I'm not sure I understood something right, but doesn't the ROM/build size matter? the OS will always take 1.5 GB ?

Hm. Will take a look later. Studies atm
Hi!
I still own a P1. I use B130 EmUI 1.0 build. Unrooted actually, as i've not found a way to root it yet. It works OK, but i think i liked MIUI 2.12.29 better.
I have exams these days, so i haven't tried CM, Pacman or any other custom ROMs
I'm waiting for Huawei to release stable JB, don't think i'll bother installing a different ROM before that happens. We'll see I have exams these days, so i haven't tried CM, Pacman or any other custom ROMs
This means you're satisfied with EmUI, cause I dont see them porting JB without it. I don't know, the home screen is a turn off. I feel like I'm installing redundant stuff.
I'm trying to install MIUI 2.12.29 from faust93's CM 10.1 04042013 but I get build prop error . it aborts installation. What should I do? What do I need to change in build.prop. Can I flash or edit a different build.prop? Thanks, btw-awsome guide
Hm. Try the touch cmw beta recovery. Try to wipe everything before flashing. Think that will work!No stock, faust93 cwm6, I have flashed cm10.1, aokp, pacman... but miui wont install.

I always wipe data, cache,... everything, and it always installs perfectly, but with miui - nothing. I will try beta cwm, in the meantime, take a look at my screenshot:

And you sure the downloaded MIUI file isn't corrupted?
Not 100% sure, but pretty sure but I'll download it again, and try to flash.

It's not corrupted. I've downloaded it again, and put it in a different folder, on internal, and ext sd, and the same error again. I used the link from this thread.

68U9200 AIO guide
This guide is made by me, but I've collected information from many others.
Special thanks to: arkedk, Urmet77, lee140685, faust93, spanorg, kiprap and others.
First of all:
1. I am not responsible for ANY bricked device! You are doing this at your own risk.
2. Downloads are located here. Most of my uploads are heavily compressed by 7zip. Only 7zip will unzip correctly.
3. Install ADB and FASTBOOT drivers for making stuff in this guide work. Very easily done with: 15 seconds ADB Installer by Snoop05 @ xda
Eventually: Android SDK | Guide by demkantor | Guide by TeamAndroid
4. Backup stuff you want to keep. Easy with tools such as: MyPhoneExplorer, Super Backup, Titanium Backup or others. (Use Google)
5. Other things you should know:
→ Reboot phone to recovery: Turn on while holding volume up + volume down. Or through ADB: "adb reboot recovery"
→ Reboot phone to fastboot: Turn on while holding volume down. Huawei logo will appear and won't disappear. Or through ADB: "adb reboot-bootloader"
→ Shut down phone if it freezes: Hold power button until dead.
→ For ADB to work, debug mode must be enabled, and you must choose "Hi suite" as USB connection mode.
→ Some Huawei ICS ROM's comes without the FM radio app. If you want it, you can install this apk. NB: ONLY ICS (Android 4.0.X). For JB: B704 was the first version to include FM radio.
Here is "ascend-p1" forum category on xda: https://xdaforums.com/t/ascend-p1
Gain root access (Works on ANY Huawei stock firmware. Inspiration taken from arkedk's thread)
TWRP has the ability to root our device, regardless of firmware version!
1. Download TWRP v2.6.3.0 (img). Unzip it, and place the .IMG in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools" folder.
2. Turn off your phone. Restart it while holding volume down (Fastboot mode). Connect your phone via USB. (ADB: adb reboot-bootloader)
3. In the "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools"-folder, hold shift while right click. Choose "open command window here".
5. Write "fastboot devices" to verify that the computer detects your device. If not detected, you failed install Fastboot drivers. (Look at the top of this guide)
6. Write "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img". This will flash/ install TWRP to your device. (Given that your recovery file is named recovery.img)
7. Boot into your new recovery, TWRP. (Volume + and - together at startup)
→ Go to the "Mount" menu and mount System.
→ Then go to the Reboot menu and reboot the system.
→ When it detects you are not rooted, TWRP will ask if you want to root.
→ Swipe to do so and let it boot back into the system.
8. Hit the SuperSU icon and let it setup for the first time. Either by downloading a flashable zip or by going to the Play Store. Both methods works.
9. You should now be rooted!
Install/flash stock or custom recovery. (Root not required.)
1. Download the recovery you want. Place the .IMG file in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools"
2. Turn off your phone. Restart it while holding volume down (Fastboot mode). Connect your phone via USB
3. In the "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools" folder, hold shift while right click. Choose "open command window here".
4. Write "fastboot devices" to verify that the computer detects your device. If not detected, you failed install Fastboot drivers. (Look at the top of this guide)
5. Write "fastboot flash recovery <recovery_name>.img".
→ Let's say the recovery file is named twrp.img. Then you will type: "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img"
6. If unsuccessful, try again, be very careful about typing it right. If successful, write "fastboot reboot" to reboot your phone. You are done.
Install any Huawei stock firmware, regardless of version (even from custom ROM)
- This will delete everything on your phone's internal memory, and you will loose root.
- The easiest way is by first flashing Intermediate Pack (B123). This is a stock Huawei ROM that will flash regardless of previous firmware version. Any Huawei ROM then will flash straight from Intermediate Pack. No build.prop modifications needed!
- Chinese versions don't have GAPPS installed. This must be installed through a custom recovery after flashing the firmware.
1. Grab "Intermediate Pack", desired firmware version, intermediate FashPack. Links in bottom of this guide.
2. Take the RECOVERY.IMG out of intermediate FlashPack, and Install it through the steps above. (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img)
3. Place "Intermediate Pack" UPDATE.APP on your SD-card. The file structure MUST be: (Root of SD-card) dload\UPDATE.APP
4. Boot into recovery (Volume up+down when powering on the device). This should start flashing procedure of B123, Intermediate Pack. If it doesn't work and you come from a custom ROM, you must change build.prop to the one included in Intermediate Pack FlashPack. See "FAQ" on how to replace build.prop.
5. After install, it will boot. Now switch the UPDATE.APP from Intermediate Pack with the one from desired firmware version. ((Root of SD-card) dload\UPDATE.APP)
6. Boot to recovery. The firmware flashing procedure will start.
Chinese version extra instructions. This is the time to install GAPPS! B704 extra instructions! arkedk has made a zip to enable all languages in B704. Grab Enable all languages in B704, by arkedk
→ FIRST boot the phone after the firmware installation has succeed.
→ Grab GAPPS corresponding to your android version. (I recommend miuiandroid.com's GAPPS lite, as they removed all unuseful stuff) Place the .zip on the sd-card. Place language enabler.zip on the sd-card as well
→ Install a TWRP v2.4.4.0 recovery
→ Boot into recovery. Install GAPPS.zip. Install language enabler .zip as well
→ Reboot. TWRP will ask you if you want ROOT access. Entirely up to you! For the language enabler to work, you must do a device reset. Relax, GAPPS should be there after the reset.
7. Done! If you want root access, check root guide on top. You can remove Chinese system apps with Uninstall Master. Weather, baidu, and Chinese market won't work outside china anyway. REQUIRES ROOT!
OLD METHOD
Install custom firmwares/ROMs (Root not required)
- This will delete everything on your phone's internal memory. Backup stuff you want to keep.
- All custom ROMs i know is pre-rooted, so nothing to worry about there!
- You will need custom recovery for this to work. Look above.
Depending on firmware, GAPPS (Google Apps) might not be included and must be flashed afterwards if it's wanted. I recommend miuiandroid.com's GAPPS lite, as they removed all unuseful stuff
1. Download desired 3rd-party firmware, it must be a CWM/TWRP flashable .zip. Place it on you memory card. If you're flashing GAPPS aswell, place gapps.zip on the memory card too.
2. Reboot you phone to recovery.
3. Wipe everything the custom firmware needs to have wiped. Generally cache, dalvik and user data.
4. Flash the firmware .zip. Wait for everything to finish!
6. Restart the phone. It will use alot of time the first time. If it uses more than, let's say.. 7 minutes, something is wrong (bootloop).
You can eventually try these steps:
→ Wipe cache, dalvik and userdata with CWM.
→ If this does not solve the problem, check the files and reflash. If it still bootloops: The files don't work with U9200.
If you are going to flash GAPPS, now after the first boot is the time to do it. Boot into recovery, then flash the GAPPS .zip corresponding to your firmware version.
7. Restart and enjoy!
"Ey, Olav! Do you know any other useful stuff I can do to my rooted phone?"
These settings can be edited by using the app Root Browser, for instance.
Boost GPS performance by changing default server to the respective one for your country. Should make the GPS faster and more precise.

Fix GPS log bug found in some Huawei ROMs. There seem to be a bug, where stock Huawei ROMs will create huge unnecessary GPS logs, that eventually will fill your entire SD card with trash! (We are talking several 100 MB's of logs!).

MIUI- Both official English (miuiandroid.com) and Chinese (miui.com) ROMs are rooted and comes without GAPPS.- Language packs for the English version were (might still be) available from miuiandroid.com.- Chinese versions contains a Chinese modified Google Play Store-app which is illegal and not working outside China.MIUIandroid.com (English) was making official ROMs for U9200, but they sadly stopped developing after version 3.2.11. If you want no-chinese MIUI without too much hassle, it's recommended to get 2.12.29 (MIUI v4, ICS based). They might remove old ROMs from their servers, therefore I've uploaded 2.12.29 to my mega account: https://mega.nz/#!ao5RAKrQ!MhwfLnFI9M5WdInhST6Llki8OGpdvvCNFIo4UDlY71UMIUI.com (Chinese) stopped official development at build 3.2.11. Weekly, unofficial MIUI v5. JB 4.2 based builds are available here: http://en.miui.com/thread-2651-1-1.htmlIt contains stuff not working outside china. Some modifications (Uninstall chinese apps, modify GPS-files, install GAPPS, install Google Keyboard) is needed to get this ROM working. It seems pretty stable, and all basic functions work. MIUI v5 is beautiful and simple, so give it a try!MIUI v5 | Android 4.2.xChinese ports: http://en.miui.com/download-26.html
MIUI v4 | Android 4.0.xEuropean latest stable (12.19.29): https://mega.nz/#!ao5RAKrQ!MhwfLnFI9M5WdInhST6Llki8OGpdvvCNFIo4UDlY71UChinese latest: http://en.miui.com/download-26.html

BACK TO GUIDE
BACK TO GUIDE3Suddenly the unofficial MIUI chinese build from en.miui.com turned to android 4.2. Cool
http://en.miui.com/thread-2651-1-1.html3Sad news: My phone is gone!
Lost it at a paint party (Life in Color). Holy moses, what a party! But it costed my phone and credit card..
Don't think i'll keep updating this thread. Feel free to grab the guide and continue updating it! Just give me some credit I've spent MANY hours in the making
PS: If anyone decides to do so, it's probably smart to split it, as i'm dangerously close to exceed the limit of 30 000 characters.3Have anyone been able to download B706? It always fails here, would be grateful if someone could provide me a mirror link
I could download it from Huawei server, without any fail. But here's some mirrors
