Could someone explain to me what this OpenGL stuff is about?  Have Huawei not made it available on G300 for some reason?

I got a notification on my G300 today for a "firmware" update - not "ICS" - called U8815_Vodafone_B892.  However i cannot update.  I get the following message when I boot into system recovery and execute the update:

-- OTA update

Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update pakage
Installing update...
Now hota starting...
Verifying current system...
Checking patch files...
assert failed: apply_patch_check("/system/app/BeyondTheSkyTheme.apk". "93c2e49fd40cc2bde3a9f5dd2e30df16eb9490")
pid=122. staturs=1792
E:Error in /sdcard/HwOUC/update.zip
(Status 7)
Formatting /cache...
Installation aborted.

I need help with this as I dont see what i am doing wrong. :wacko:

Thanks in advance.

Huawei have not implemented the 2D hardware acceleration for OpenGL. The UI does not draw as quickly as it otherwise might and battery life is also impacted. Yeah, its a budget phone, but omitting support for fairly major hardware features is pretty lame, even so. Qualcomm released the Adreno 200 2D driver in March, so it is possible that other devs may sort it out, but the G300 is currently suffering frm lack of interest from the Android hacking community atm... Odd considering it is obviously a best-in-class device.

Kernel sources are fundamental for complete, clean ROM. Cutting out binaries from prebaked ROM from Huawei and putting into one piece is a nonsense. And old kernel sources are meant to be for Gingerbread, not for ICS.

You appear to have removed "/system/app/BeyondTheSkyTheme.apk" from your ROM. The update fails when it finds that it isn't there

If he deleted that apk, or is not on stock/ with all the stock apps the update assumes then it won't work.

Makes sense really as its an update, not a full Rom.

It's kinda strange that B892 was available at 1st June at huawei.com.cn (second tab) - because I haven't seen B892 until UK version was released (and I check all huawei sites almost every day). If there is a month gap between B892 and B926, I would say that Huawei will release UK Vodafone B927 (or higher) about 17. august.
