CyanogenMod 10.2 for the Huawei Ascend Y300 and G510



You must use a recovery updated for 4.3 (with the EXT4 fix) to use this ROM otherwise you will encounter issues. A CWM build is linked below.

FAQ:
Where did the developer/performance options go?
Tap on the build number 5 times in "About phone".

Where did the recovery reboot option go?
It has to be enabled in developer options, "Advanced reboot".

Why did the boot animation change? Why did the Play Store disappear? Why does my phone not leave the boot animation?
A change Huawei made (for seemingly no reason) completely breaks 4.3. It has been reverted in the kernel here, but recoveries may need updating too.

Why isn't ADB working?

You need to update your Android platform tools and then approve the PC on your device. Android 4.2.2+ feature.

Issues:

• A few video decoding errors, mostly distortion
• Possibly some G510-specific issues, I believe I fixed the framebuffer dancing bug, if anyone can point things out it would be appreciated

Awesome downloading

Just wondering.. did the Y300 help in the G300s dev?

 

and yes, can confirm.. may just be placebo, this seems even stabler and faster than yesterdays

Definitely, they had a ton of camera issues fixed by this, as well as infamous TVCatchup (and similar) bugs. Apparently the 3.4 kernel runs better and manages memory better too.

Oh, and the dancing Maps bug vanished. That was a fun one.

If i do a backup with twrp and i flash this rom,there are many problems if I would like to return to my backup or there is any problem because i havent flashed it with cwm?

Hi, I am reporting  bug, Not sure everyone else experienced or not! these are minor bugs! so not important. but I think worth mentioning in official thread.

 

1. LED brightness is brighter than normal.

2. when the phone reboots, for the 1st time when the screen goes off, the backlight turns off in kinda funny way, but after that, it goes normal.

3. Video distortion in Huawei weather app.

4. after clearing all app or any app from task manager, screen blinks for a second!
5. phone reboots occasionally in video recording mode (experienced once) and antutu 3d testing.

6. GPS can't pin point location. shows approx. position.

7. some animation is missing like data transfer animation in network icon, gps fixing animation!

8. battery drain is "slightly" higher than stock. in normal standby mode 0% in 10 hour. but during normal work slightly greater than stock. just slightly. nothing major!
 

[fonz93]

@dazzoso, i have flashed this new update and i have the problem of no boot animation, i will test if are present the others bugs that you said (no wi fi etc) and after this i will reflash the rom

 

edit: others bugs,,ril after reboot doesnt work and root the same, everything that use root doesnt work, i will reflash

 

edit2: i can confirm the little battery drain

 

edit3: reflashed and boot animation fixed, root fixed, ril at the 2nd reboot doesnt work, at the third works, games stays laggy such as the previous version

 

 

Antutu score :6863, but opengl 2.0 test had more fps than the stock and others rom

O.o me excluded hahaha!

 

Nice work DAZZ, congratulations!

[Sigray]

This rom is far far the best on y300. I cant find any seroious bug yet.

[TangerineTractor]

My initial findings:
Took three installs for me... First time no boot animation or WiFi, so reflashed cwm. Second time didn't get root properly - couldn't install ad block, tried flashing supersu too. Third wipe and install worked.
The only bug I've found is video playback on some formats.
It does seem slightly laggy compared to the initial release... Might be my imagination.

[intensedarkness]

Qualityyy - I'd recommend a FULL format from CWM before flashing just to avoid the small chance of any lingering ext4 corruption issues. Also format system from mounts and storage.

[intensedarkness]

To anyone who wastes a lot of time formatting, reinstalling, and setting up all apps again, use Helium backup - backs up and restores all your apps and data WITHOUT ROOT!

 

Very easy to use and intuitive interface.

@Dazzozo,

 

Is it possible for Huawei Ascend Y300 to be woken (just like power button) by multiple swipe gestures (eg. slide2wake or slide2unlock) on the screen?

 

Apps on play store include TOUCH CONTROL (https://play.google....id.touchcontrol) & PGM GALAXY NEXUS (https://play.google....net.ponury.pgm2)

 

AFAIK such a feature works for several dedicated kernels ONLY. Indeed, it would be perfect if Huawei Ascend Y300 is equipped with such a feature. Thanks..

[aapee]

Is it needed to wipe anything if im coming from a previous cm10.2 build?
