OK!

Here's what I did, and what happened...

• Flashed ICS from the official download from the Huawei site (dload dir) - OK!
  
• Flashed the vendor package from the official download from the Huawei site (vendor dir) - OK!
  
• Installed ADB drivers from the ISO mounted on the phone - OK!
  
• Ran 'unlockbootloader.exe' and clicked root - OK!
  
• Verified root - OK!
  
• Ran 'unlockbootloader.exe' and clicked bootloader - app closed on completion - OK!
  
• Started device in bootloader and fastboot flashed clockworkmod recovery - OK!
  
• Launched clockworkmod recovery - OK!
  
• Launched device normally with SIM inserted, got service and made call - OK!

That's what I call a success!

Next, make a MCR of B192 to go over the top with Chinese stuff removed and Google stuff added!

Would it be possible for someone to post the links to these two download files? I have searched about but I'm worried about grabbing the wrong files (Chinese is not a strong point).

Guys, I've tried to update to B926 from B895 and said update failed, some suggest that flashing B892 first will work and when I try to flash B892 it says update failed. What should I do?

[andy.hyde4]

I will wait for the MCR then. Thanks to all people helping out and deving for this device.

Jekle, are you using stock recovery, do you have a dload folder?

This is why I come here!

So to be sure, is there any downside to flashing b926 now? Once that's flashed and bootloader unlocked can we then go back to B888 (or whatever) if we like?

Also if you make a new MCR will I even need to have flashed b926 in the first place?

Yes I copied dload folder to the root of the sd. I actually reflashed B895 and that worked fine. I am using stock recovery. I only rooted B895

i would say yes, so your baseband gets updated

did u need to add the vendor file aswell

its tempting to try this ICS now, but I think I might wait until its officially released here. which i think i read its sometime this month.

Vendor files are optional and only needed for that specific operator. I personally wouldn't use them.

[Davidoff59]

So you would still have to flash b926, unlock boot loader, root and then flash pauls rom? Will Paula rom not update the radio also?

I actually followed the Huawei instructions. from what I've heard I need to be on B892 to upgrade to ICS but trying to downgrade to B892 from says update failed. I've tried different SD Cards.
The flasher gave me a log about the downgrade and the ICS flash I'm certain that the same error for both. Even updating from B895 to ICS doesn't work.

Cheers for that.

Also, sorry if I missed this but when Paul upgraded, did he have stock recovery or was a custom recovery already installed?
