Can I upgrade to this from the Chinese official?

Try? The worst that can happen is it says "no".

[jikobutsu]

Tillaz, I done as you said, but news and weather working fine ?

[andy.hyde4]

I will try tomorrow when I get home don't want to wipe all data whilst out bit of a pain

[Davidoff59]

it force closes on Chinese ics with force gpu rendering that's why tillaz asked. so no point changing really if its not much different as I have Chinese ics all set up now.

[rsrocha]

Have you checked the set of languages available with the vendor update?

The last thing we need to know is why they call it a demo. Test version? Does everything work?

it never force closed for you when you pressed on the weather result ????

i cant even download it... saying server error

[Davidoff59]

force closed on me,  what did it do for you. Remember you saying something about logcat results

[Andymac1969]

@ Jikobutsu, how did you install this? I have been through the settings> software> update, but the pink bar gets 1/3 way across then just stops

yeah, force closed,

i'm asking if it never for him (above)

[Dazzozo]

Don't even start with logcat. Huawei disable logging on the kernel level so we don't have logcat until the 3.0 kernel drop and it is patched.

Yep that is exactly what happens here huawei are so lame man.

@rsrocha, plenty of languages there, including yours and yes everything is working.

@andymac1969, should work, maybe the download was corrupt, it does take some time to update though, how long did you leave it?

Although I'm no expert at all, I wonder if on this specific device (G300) being so far a Vodafone Exclusive, I was wondering if being a "Demo" means a clean ICS Rom so that Vodafone can take it and inject all extras they usually release on the Branded Rom's...
Cheers everyone!

Mmm, starting to wonder whether I should've ordered one afterall. Lack of HW acceleration is a turn off, for sure. I guess Huawei have been too busy making superfluous UI 'enhancements', whilst trying to avoid distractions like overall performance.

lol, i have logcat working on ics... how else would i have been reading them

you just need to enable it via the secret menu, best to use full stock rom with nothing removed

*#*#2846579#*#*

once its enabled its enabled even after switching roms

Thanks for the reply, about 10 mins, but it only got 1/3 way through and stopped, just having another go now

So definitely a European ICS Rom with Portuguese included! great!
A couple of newbie question for the brave ones who already flashed this:

• Can we get the 4 direction Lock Screen (shortcuts to unlock, phone, sms and camera? I confess i´m addicted to that one.
  
• Is it upgradable directly from B888 and is it reversible to that same B888?

Thanks!

Strange, my softkey backlights seem to not be working, they where, but now are not, rebooted and now they are back on.

Tillaz I was going to suggest that menu setting to enable logging. Worked for me when I installed Chinese ics.
