Description
A CyanogenMod 7 port made for, and tested on, a Huawei U8100. May or may not work on other U8100,U8110 and U8120 phones.
(A lot of the work derives from all the existing U81xx CM7 ports)

  • Boots overclocked to 614.4MHz with frequencies available up to 768MHZ (I recommend NoFrills CPU Control for overclocking)
  • Uses 33% higher AHB bus speeds on overclocked frequencies on 528MHz CPUs (600MHz U81xx phones allready use these AHB speeds)
  • Allocates 18% of the RAM for compcache (compressed swap in RAM). Can be turned off or tweaked in CMParts.

Sources

Known issues
  • USB mounting does not work
  • Wifi and BT coexistance still have issues even with abtfilt in place.
  • USB tethering isn't working (I think)
  • Wifi hotspot works but turning it off didn't work well when I tried it.
  • No FM radio.

Changelog
  • 2011-10-05c: Added "ascend" as a device the install script should accept (it seems many use clockwork built for the Huawei Ascend). Added SIO scheduler, a power profile and a minor change to the camera overlay.
  • 2011-10-05b: Added u8110 and u8120 as devices the install script should accept
  • 2011-10-05: Initial release

Downloads

For Google apps go here: http://goo-inside.me/gapps/ (I use the 20110613 version because the I prefer the old Market but the 20110828 version should work too)

If installation fails then try the attached clockwork recovery (unzip and flash with fastboot)
To install a different recovery you can download one of the packages here: http://android.modaco.com/topic/308985-19may-installing-a-custom-recovery-image-on-your-device/
In the step where you are supposed to run the install-recovery-windows.bat, instead manually flash the attached (and unzipped) recovery like this:
fastboot-windows.exe flash recovery recovery-v5.0.2.3-u8100.img
Then to get out of bootloader mode use:
fastboot-windows.exe reboot

You must use my version of clockwork recovery or remove the parts in the install script that checks for "u8100".

Uploaded a new version that should install even if Clockwork identifies itself as u8110 or u8120.

Nevermind mate, i managed to install your version of CW and now it's updating normally ... report soon :)

Installed it with no probs, so far i've seen that calibration is perfect and camera with camcorder works without problems... no lag after calls or after camera !

Those are first impressions ... more of them - later :)

How is the battery life? Is it better then joilaroi's ROM (Huawei U8120 – RC1 - update 14 http://bit.ly/mC77sj )? His ROM would only keep the phone(U8120) running for like 10 hours, due to the camera problem.

If it's better I can use the ROM everyday.

I don't see a camera problem. I tried camera and camcorder couple of hours ago, and there are no problems ... In battery usage, nothing unusual :)

After a couple of days, we will see the quality of this rom!

Thanks, Kalt .... :)

    USB mounting workaround:
    • go to settings -> wireless & networks -> tethering & portable hotspot
    • tap once on usb tethering
    • turn on usb storage via notification bar
    it mounts!

    Mediafire seems to be down right now. I'll upload it somewhere else unless it comes back online soon.
