I have root on my G300 with B926. It means, i install googleframework and i have now market, gmail, gtalk, gmaps and more, i can sync contats and calendar. Root is very easy:

(from china forum):

required files is here: http://uloz.to/xEP83uG/must-have-files-for-root-g300-ics-zip (excluding adb!!!)

You must have working ADB in your computer, if its true, you can do that command:

adb push mempodroid /data/local/tmp

adb push su /data/local/tmp

adb push Superuser.apk /data/local/tmp

adb shell

And in SHELL you continue with this command:

cd /data/local/tmp

chmod 777 ./mempodroid

./mempodroid 0xd524 0xab8f sh

mount -o remount,rw -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system

cat /data/local/tmp/su > /system/xbin/su

chown 0.0 /system/xbin/su

chmod 06755 /system/xbin/su

cat /data/local/tmp/Superuser.apk >/system/app/Superuser.apk

chown 0644 /system/app/Superuser.apk

exit

exit

It is all. You have now root :-)

good information michal :-)

[Guest anything-but]

Ooooo,so tempted now to try it........must .....remember ....bootloader! lol

[Guest PeaceMaker_H]

Ok, so root took a couple of days to figure out, let´s hope to get unlocked BL in the next week :D

[Guest anything-but]

So,with root worked out now,unless we get that bootloader unlocked,no cwm/custom roms i guess?

indeed. :(:huh:

[Guest michal.siman]

For people who dont know how put the gapps to rooted B926, there is good solution for understanding: http://www.pcworld.c...indle_fire.html - it is easy and it is working. I have now on my ICS G300 latest Google Play, Gmail and Gmaps.

And btw: (funny info, but why not:) there is still no way back - but it isnt bad message for me, i like my G300 with ICS, i dont need unlocked bootloader - but if YOU need it, dont do it!

In this official release all is working, at least from at ive been reading,

Double check in the first pages..

3.14 please understand the consequences before flashing. If you flash this, you cant flash any custom roms and will be stuck on this rom until the boot loader gets unlocked. This may never happen.

Michal, can you post a few screenshots please. How are you finding the rom? Any issues with Chinese language?

Screens...

[Guest michal.siman]

Screens of ICS?

[Guest anything-but]

Michal,any chance of some antutu and quadrant benchmarks please?

[Guest fr0do]

That's pretty naff that they kept the clocktopia font for the lockscreen and clock :(

AOSP ASAP then :P

[Guest Dazzozo]

The launcher isn't too bad, but everything else is pretty much a copy paste from what was bundled on Gingerbread.

[Guest anything-but]

If that`s the case,what`s the reason for upgrading? Performance tweaks?

[Guest Pathfinder23]

Hi michal,

what languages included in this ROM (more specifically arabic) ? am like you not bothered about installing custom ROMs so the only question I have would be..

If I install this ROM will I be able to install the official UK version from Huawei (my guess would be yes as it's from Huawei but just wanted to check) :)

[Guest anything-but]

Have to admit,i`m sorely tempted to take one for the team and upgrade. Bottom line,as long as i have a working phone then i`m fine,plus i`d be able to help out with getting the bootloader cracked :)

I'd at least wait until the official european ICS is released as the bootloader has a chance of being different to the chinese one.

The Huawei website now has the B926 build up as an 'official' download for the U8818:

[Guest rsrocha]

If it was made official for the u8818 then maybe during this week we will have more news for u8815!

[Guest Davidoff59]

vodafone have to approve and add bloat to it yet so it may take a while.
