Totally thought that the phone was limited to internal memory for apps. Not really, you cant switch between your sd or internal memory as default storage.

Can you sync Google contact?
I use the rooted ROM but cannot sync contact, calendar and everything else syncs fine.

Yes! I just bought this phone too. I bought it Wednesday night after e-mailing back and forth with the seller in China, and I was able to pay $5 extra on top of the $20 shipping (so $25 total) to get the phone, case, and screen protector to me by this Friday! (so essentially overnight shipping.) I'm so glad I'm going to have it by this weekend.

I absolutely can't wait to get this phone! I can't wait to see peoples reaction when they see my phablet!

So Google Contacts and Calendar events doing sync? Damn!! I rely on Google's sync options immensely! So I guess I'll just have to enter in all my contacts manually, and then download an app from the Play Store that will backup contacts automatically to the SD card.

I too bought a 64GB sd card, so I will have plenty of space.

You have the option to switch your internal memory for your sd memory as internal. You are able to install Google stuff after you rooted, but not sync. I had to transfer my contacts via Bluetooth from my previous phone. This phone is really amazing and at a great price.I got my phone after five days due to weekend delay.should have ordered my case with it since no body here sells anything for it. =/

Yeah, the seller is rooting it and installing Play for me beforehand.

I did not know the sync doesn't work :-/ that really stinks.

witeboy07 · Apr 19, 2013

I mean, there could be someway,I just needed that for my contacts. You might be able to find a fix somewhere.

Something such as this should work: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.soocial&hl=en

Sync the contacts on my Note II, then switch to the Ascend Mate and I can download that app and sync the contacts to my phone. I will have to try and find calendar sync. I use calendar for appointments, birthday reminders, etc.

Once you get everything right, you'll be amazed with this phone.

Voila!
For contact, simply install GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk, then you get it in the sync menu.
The latest version is posted on adroidfilehost.com.

Cant belive that you rarely find stuff for / about the Mate, as for me its the only current real N7100 competitor in the market.

Is MT1-U06 the internal / Huawei product code?
Is there any knowledge about custom roms in the making? MIUI? CM?
Root routines / manuals?
Does anybody know if it will take a 64GB SanDisk without problems?
Did anybody already try to remove the backover / battery? Any warrenty labels preventing to do so?

I've just ordered one to test it parallel to my Note 2, but i fear that a massive lack of community interest & support will be the real and main con.

MT1-U06 is Huawei's model #.

There's no custom ROMs for this phone, no ClockWorkMod Recovery (probably won't be).

There is root, and it's fairly easy: http://androidforums.com/ascend-mate-all-things-root/707294-huawei-ascend-mate-root-guide.html

Mine takes 64GB just fine. Although I did have the SD card formatted to Fat32. Still reads it just fine.

No, you cannot remove the back cover. It's a solid phone and it would be very difficult to start prying things apart on this phone.

I love this phone though, it's a solid phone. I only wish Huawei would bring it to the U.S. so we could get some ROMs and ClockWorkMod installed

witeboy07 · Apr 29, 2013

I love this phone too, big screen, fast, but low development here is a no go. Plus Huawei is saying that they don't want business here in the USA anymore. I might ditch this and go with the s4.
