Try Root Explorer instead of ES File Explorer worked for me

Hmm, ok Root Explorer, I need to pay for that.. I'll try some other file managers first. Any ideas why it has to be root explorer?

also tried some solution on http://android.modac...l-235/  "Solved the "problem"! First download and install SuperUser from the marktet!! Before using SuperOneClick! " but that did not help either.. hmm, kind of weird. Any  further help would be appreciated, what else can I try?

maybe use adb shell to change permissions?

I had the same problem with ES File Explorer. I had to  remount the .cust_backup folder as writeable using the Remount (Stephen Stericson) app. Then ES File Explorer was able to ovewrite the file.

Now if only I could find out how to overclock the CPU...

Return to supplier for warranty repair / replacement.

Did you re-partition your phone? This seems to be the cause of the IMEI=0 Problem.

Yeah i had re-partitioned when I first got it, but i did return it to original partition before I ran the upgrade, ah well CPW have it now.
though it wasnt very reassuring when the guy didnt understand why I was bothered that my IMEI had been reset as he had no idea what it was for!!!!!

Honestly dont these people have any interest in what it is they're selling?

Can anyone explain something to me? I haven't done the upgrade, I'm still on 2.2.2. I intend to do the 2.3 official upgrade so:

--> How can I downgrade to official 2.2.2? I haven't found anything at all about this, although I read all the time about people doing downgrades.

I wanted to know every step first if I need to backup something prior to the upgrade.

This is the only post you will need for Official 2.3

Very nice indeed! Wish they replaced mine with the Galaxy S rather than sending me another U8800.

The Galaxy S seems to have allot of ICS ROMS out already. THIS ONE caught my eye as everything seems to be working well. There will be no official ICS from Samsung for the Galaxy S so this ROM seems the next best thing

Enjoy your new phone!

new kernel for .35 which doesn't distort a sound but does overclocking max up to 1200mhz. I just tried on stock ROM works well

download

[d3xx]

Can someone please post a download link for the current official 2.3 update (english with Google apps)? All the links i try dont work or go to premium-only fileshare sites.

Seems like Huawei deployed a new version:

Name:HUAWEI U8800 Android 2.3 for beta.This version improves1,missing call issue;2,MMS attachment issue.Version:-- ( V100R001C00B526G001 )                                                              Date:2012-02-17

"For beta"? Weird... :S I'm still on 2.2 until I am sure it's ok to install without losing imei or bricking the phone.
