This will not work with the U8800H, which uses a different radio, since the modules will not be enabled in the kernel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Pulseuser1 Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 Lol for some reason this is much slower than the stock ROM i had initially, no idea why though, i did everything correctly ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest That-Guy Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 Lol for some reason this is much slower than the stock ROM i had initially, no idea why though, i did everything correctly :P Are you using this with the B136 Firmware?

Guest primozkoco Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 Would this superboot work with B160 ROM ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest That-Guy Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 Would this superboot work with B160 ROM ? Some people are reporting reboots with Superboot and B160. Best answer I can give is to try, just backup your existing boot image first. Let us know how you get on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest primozkoco Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Ok soon as I get my sd card I will try it. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Xann Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Guys, just curious, will I be able to revert back to the original bootloader after using Paul's Superboot...? Do I just replace it with the original bootloader...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest That-Guy Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Yep just backup your Original Boot Loader before using Paul's, then if you want to revert just copy the backup back ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Xann Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Haha, nice, can't wait to try it out. Thanks a lot mate! =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Adnan Khan Posted June 21, 2011 Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 (edited) Introducing.... Superboot! :) Superboot is a boot.img that when flashed, will root your device the first time you boot (installing su and the superuser APK). No need to flash the system partition, no need to use ADB, no messing with the contents of your data partition, no overwriting the shipped ROM on your device, just flash the boot image using the instructions below and you're done! My Superboot image for the Huawei U8800 / Ideos X5 does more than this though. As well as rooting your device, it will install a custom optimised kernel, convert your device from EXT3 to EXT4 (for increased performance), install busybox with shortcuts and install TUN/CIFS kernel modules! :D APPLY THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK! DownloadSuperboot r1 - DOWNLOAD (Mediafire Pro) - MD5: 5bfde2790a4cca2a9d106ef42111da47How to use SuperbootTurn off your deviceTurn your device on while holding 'volume up' and 'volume down' the screen will turn purplePlug the device into your PC. A number of 'USB drives' will appear, including one with a single directory named 'image'.From this directory, copy the boot.img and keep somewhere safe (this is your 'undo' mechanism)Copy the downloaded image above to the image directory named boot.imgEject the USB drives and restart your device (by pulling the battery)Enjoy! B) P Hi to Forum Members I am just new to Andriod and I followed the steps with my Hauwei IDEOS X5 to use Superboot, but after following all step my Wifi connection is in "Turning on" mode. any solution ?
