Noob question, if I go and install this one, will I have trouble installing Paul's mod over it, also what about CM9? And finally how about official huawei UK mod? Can someone explain this please.

[Nesli]

Nice !! Anyway, could you make AOSP version with google apps flashable over official ICS ?

Do you Need to install Clockwork mod recovery ? Sorry I'm fairly new to this sort of thing?

I've just been giving this a go and it seems quite nice. Only issue I've found so far is that the Permission Manager keeps crashing whenever anything asks for root, other than that it's really impressive to get it up and running so quickly.

[ewardofr]

thx god!

[Davidoff59]

which permission manager are you using Hans? If its super user, you could try super su or vice versa

[ewardofr]

I don'y have any ICS rom installed. Currently, I'm using AtomicMod Rom. Do I have to run the bootloader process?

MIUI seems to come with one called "Permissions Manager". I tried downloading another off google play but it didn't seem to bypass the built-in one

Just a quick question. Why do the two unlockbootloader.exe versions mentioned here differ in size?
I ask this because I tried to download the one from the first post at work and it gave me a virus warning (McAfee)
Just downloaded both now while at home (first post and the one from post 18), and see the difference in size...
Probably nothing, but just wondering

The one I linked in my post is the one I used last night which flibblesan posted ( http://www.modaco.co...0/#entry1981703 ) in the Bootloader unlock thread. I believe it was written by the OP of this thread but posted in a different forum so the version linked here could be a newer version as it was posted up some time afterwards.

In short; I posted that linked version because I used it and I know it worked.

One requires you to put in imei etc which is the official one. The other is by a rom dev trusted by flibblesan

You need to have ICS installed 4.0.3 (B926)?? I have B895, and I can not go back or forward.

[Tec_Fil]

anyone have issues in the mount system? Whith any ics rom (B926, MIUI, CM9) i lost the sd card directory and internal memmory doesn´t showed in none of my pcs...

[Cyda]

On the B926 the sdcard is mounted as /sdcard2 and the 2gb internal is mounted as /sdcard. If you load up titanium backup it should show the partitions.

Edit: If I mount the USB via windows I get as Huawei device with two partitions - one the internal and one the proper sdcard.

Rafael, your issue is being worked on. Please take a look through the forum and you will see it.
Tec_fil, no issues here with CM9, however, on the U8818 version of ICS, Paul has stated that the internal 700MB partition isnt used and it just shows the internal 2GB, however someone has pointed out to him that various programs show that the partitions are still there but they arent visible on PC. Paul is workng on this for his MCR release.

[arnette]

Great post, it should be pinned for newbs (like me).

The upgrade instructions for ICS look a little confusing as they are missing a couple of things so I have added a few more steps to clear things up.

These are the steps I took:

• Download the official download from the Huawei site ( http://www.huaweidev...softid=NDE4NjY= )
  
• Unzip the file and copy the dload folder and (optional) vendor folder on to your SD card.
  
• Go to Settings > Storage > Software upgrade to start the ICS upgrade - make sure you have enough battery before going any further!
  
• (Optional )Flash the vendor package from the official download from the Huawei site - (this is optional but I didn't do it and my ICS works great)
  
• Boot in to freshly installed ICS, install ADB drivers from the ISO mounted on the phone, enable USB debugging and then connect USB cable - make sure adb works.
  
• Download 'unlockbootloader.exe' from http://www.mediafire...v9a6xmvz1ut832a
  
• Ran 'unlockbootloader.exe' and clicked 'ROOT Your Phone'.
  
• Ran 'unlockbootloader.exe' and clicked 'Unlock BOOTLOADER' - app closed on completion.
  
• Power off your phone, remove battery for a few seconds and replace, then power on whilst holding vol. down and power to go in to fastboot - the phone will hang on the splash screen whilst in fastboot.
  
• Then go to this thread ( http://www.modaco.co...15ascend-g-300/ ) and follow the instructions to install clockworkmod recovery.

[omegamoon]

ICS installation was successful. I ran the unlockbootloader.exe twice and ran fastboot with following result:

sending 'recovery' (5074 KB)... OKAY
writing 'recovery'... FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)

Stuck Any help?
