0. Backup anything you dont want to lose. You should make a backup of your imei while you are at it :- https://docs.google....QHNo/edit?pli=1
1. Download a rom from http://g300.thebronasium.com/huawei/
2. Download the 'middle package' file from http://www.modaco.co...ade-tool-found/ (It's on the second line of the first page)
3. Decompress both files using winrar or 7zip or similar. Note that among the extracted files for each archive (from step 1 and 2) is a file called UPDATE.APP
4. Place the big UPDATE.APP file in a folder called dload on your SD card. Put the SD card in the phone.
5. Power on the phone using power button AND volume+ AND volume- all at the same time. Keep those three buttons pressed till the software starts updating. It will give you a brand new ROM on your phone.
6 If (and only if) it hangs or doesn't work, pull the battery then replace the big UPDATE.APP with the little one and go back to step 5. This should pave the way for a successful update. Then try again with the big UPDATE.APP

Thanks a lot !

Everything worked fine, without 6th step !
Just placed b888 (euro unbranded) on SDCard, maxi combo (vol+ vol- power), then pink progress bar.
No problem, after few reboots, G300 came back to life !
No IMEI lost

Then superrecovery, cwm and everything's ok now !

Device is more responsive on b888
Infusion ICS gave me less than 100mb ram available, b888 is still near 200mb ! (Only few apps installed !)

TCPAULH, THANKS ONCE AGAIN FOR YOUR MINI TUTORIAL, BUT REALLY ACCURATE & EFFICIENT !

[tcpaulh]

No worries

Just to point out that we have to change our ideas about free ram. There's a new paradigm. Free ram is wasted ram. ICS puts stuff in ram it thinks might be needed. This results in better performance as loading from flash memory to ram is eliminated (at point of requirement) in a lot of cases as it's already there.

tcpaulh, the search button would've shown up this.While your intentions are good, we can't spoon feed people forever.

[tcpaulh]

I provided search results higher up too. A real live lmgtfy.

Because the IMEI backup was made when the phone was "that way", and the IMEI backup includes more things not just the IMEI, and all that are back when you restore it.

Does this still work for newer ICS versions? like B935

[billpine]

B895 has 109808. The last one before the nasty ICS!
