Hello,
I'm new with the Huawei Ascend G300 and custom ROM.

Before following the steps you give, how can I fully backup the default (vodafone) ROM and app?
I can imagine I lost the warranty if I have any problem and do not restore the default ROM.

Thanks.

Ok so i managed to Install Infusion and everything was working fine, however I went to unlock the handset and no dice I have to install a stock ICS ROM...
trouble is i dont know how to do this, i tried downloading B926 and extracted the dload folder to the phones SD card, i went to storage to install update from sdcard but it said "The key data cannot be backed up thus the upgrade cannot proceed"...
I'm obviously missing something, tillza mentioned an update with CWM repack...

I dont know what this means or what the heck to do!

Hi guys posted the following in another section on the forums I guess it may belong here.
Thanks for the guides btw im slowing starting to understand - slowly

my post from yesterday below:

"Just bought a new G300 today on vodafone - was looking to install ICS but am I right in saying to hold off for now or just download and install??
Currently on stock 2.3.6
Ive read that theres no hardware acceleration in ICS version from huawei - is that correct???
Not sure what to do - first android phone - any info would be appreciated right now
Thanks and sorry -was initially thinking of "rooting" and installing a custom rom as in the sticky guide on this forum but have no clue if that would have any benefits really
This official update confused what I was going to do
Sorry for being a noob "

Now I take it that vodafone are dragging their heels releasing their OTA firmware - so Im back to thinking just install a ICS custom rom perhaps infusion - would that be a decent choice do you think
Can you restore (i take it you can)  and are there any other pitfalls - things not working in these custom roms etc again sorry for being a noob with android
But from what ive read theres can be a lot of intracacies

Hi,

This is driving me bonkers. Searching the forum hasn't helped so far.

Battery was low this morning, got the message suggesting that I go into power saving mode so I clicked OK.
I've now got the phone on a charger (after a reboot) and suspect that it's still in power saving mode (screen dims very fast when its inactive).

Is there a way to check if it's still in power saving mode?
How do you revert to normal mode?

Thanks for any pointers.

PS Android 4.0.3 baseband 2030.

Found the answer, used zdbox which allows you to flip between the two modes.see screenshot.
