Guest ozren Posted May 28, 2010 Report Posted May 28, 2010 Where - plz a short link THX It was easier to upload it to RS... but I just realised that you are asking about 1.8... this image helped me for 1.7 so I am not sure if you should do this... better wait untill someone else confirms it! sprboot

I found a bootimage that worked for me I Back on MCR 1.7 No more FC´s and Reboots I used the boot.img from this file : update-U8230V100R001C00B250-rooted-signed.zip Edited May 28, 2010 by Barny_Ger
Guest Evil Disco Guy Posted June 4, 2010 Report Posted June 4, 2010 Has anyone got a copy of this boot.img. The RS link is dead.
Guest Evil Disco Guy Posted June 4, 2010 Report Posted June 4, 2010 I tried using the boot.img from the December Update (by unpacking the UPDATA.app) but that didn't seem to work.
Guest Evil Disco Guy Posted June 4, 2010 Report Posted June 4, 2010 Okay finally found it. To get it all working, install the Recovery image and then install your 1.5 ROM of choice (MCR 1.8 for me). At this point you'll notice the touchscreen isn't working. So now install the Superboot but change the pulse.superboot.img for this one here. Touchscreen is now working again and you're running 1.5. I took the boot.img from update-U8230V100R001C00B250-rooted-signed.zip (found here). You'll also notice the default Huawei screen on boot up instead of T-Mobile.
Guest Evil Disco Guy Posted June 5, 2010 Report Posted June 5, 2010 (edited) This doesn't seem to actually work at all. I used 1.7 MCR and after applying the boot.img I noticed that Google Maps disappeared, that and I can't install any apps. If I disable Apps2SD will that help or is all hope lost thanks to the partition change? I can't stand 2.1 and the constant freezes anymore. I can't even listen to music and browse Facebook without problems. EDIT: Disabling Apps2SD means I can install apps again so that's good enough for now. Edited June 5, 2010 by Evil Disco Guy
Guest Speckles Posted June 5, 2010 Report Posted June 5, 2010 I really am amazed by the people who say they have constant crashes. I've had exactly one whilst entering text into the google search bar (had to remove the battery), and I've never had another one since.
Guest Evil Disco Guy Posted June 6, 2010 Report Posted June 6, 2010 (edited) Not crashes, just poor quality. Music stops playing while loading any other app (even Simple Last.fm has shut it down before) and as I use the music player often, it's a deal breaker for me. It's obvious there are memory problems with using 2.1. Edited June 6, 2010 by Evil Disco Guy
Guest ZeBadger Posted June 6, 2010 Report Posted June 6, 2010 I've rolled back to MCR 1.7 and then flashed the superboot and it's still doing the rebooting thing. I'm going back to the 1.5 December update... I suspect my problems will still exist :/
Guest screwface Posted June 6, 2010 Report Posted June 6, 2010 and this is why i've not flashed any of the 2.1 updates except pauls first 2.1 update.zip which doesnt change partition layout nor flash hardware.
Guest Daz555 Posted June 7, 2010 Report Posted June 7, 2010 and this is why i've not flashed any of the 2.1 updates except pauls first 2.1 update.zip which doesnt change partition layout nor flash hardware. Paul's 2.1 requires the Hungarian update to be applied first in order to resize the partitions.
Guest screwface Posted June 7, 2010 Report Posted June 7, 2010 Paul's 2.1 requires the Hungarian update to be applied first in order to resize the partitions. the first 2.1 rom he put out didn't.
