Guest RamsysUK Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 I formatted the sd card and cleared the phone with clockwork. Installed the update and Im impressed. No forced closures or waits, everything works and is quick. Ive tried cyanogen mod and flb and jmod and had problems with all of them. Only problem is........how do I change the apps at the bottom to things I actually use? anybody help?
Guest D-D- Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 Use different launcher. On the default huawei launcher u can't change those things just like that...

Guest Matt Taylor Posted March 8, 2011 Report Posted March 8, 2011 What's the general feeling about the February 2011 2.1 firmware? I've read this entire thread and noted that there seems to be a fair bit of confusion. I've not rooted my phone or played with it in any way other than to install the December 2009 1.5 firmware. I'd love to upgrade my Pulse to 2.1 but would like to be sure that the SMS bug has been fixed. Regards, Matt
Guest Zeblue Posted March 10, 2011 Report Posted March 10, 2011 (edited) I've rooted my phone (+ the wife's) from the December 2009 1.5 firmware to official 2.1 and there is no SMS bug that I've experienced. Generally operating ok, much smoother interface...wouldn't go back. Edited March 10, 2011 by Zeblue
Guest themadwacky1 Posted March 10, 2011 Report Posted March 10, 2011 how's battery life on this, currently on CM v0.4 and the battery life is ok with overclock widget/setcpu, just wondering whether the battery drain is less on the new official rom?

Guest Zeblue Posted March 11, 2011 Report Posted March 11, 2011 Battery life with this 2.1 is ok, perhaps a slight improvement on the original 1.5?!
Guest Casterina Posted March 15, 2011 Report Posted March 15, 2011 Whats the link to the german update 2.1?
Guest Casterina Posted March 16, 2011 Report Posted March 16, 2011 http://www.t-mobile.de/fremdcontent/1,2790,137859,00.html - click this link!!! De Update offical.. just translate into the preferable language for you.
Guest Matt Taylor Posted March 16, 2011 Report Posted March 16, 2011 Thanks, I'm going to do it this weekend. :D Been using it for a couple of days now and so far I'm happy I upgraded. Seems much quicker than the 1.5 firmware which really knocked performance when I installed that.
Guest Fulcrum_X Posted March 18, 2011 Report Posted March 18, 2011 I was very happy with Stock DE 2.1, however after a few weeks I noticed I'm missing certain text messages again.. :D Besides that I notice it gets slower after a while. Deleting SMS threads helps, it gets quite sluggish if you have too much/big threads.

Deleting SMS threads helps, it gets quite sluggish if you have too much/big threads. For curiosity sake, please check one thing for me. In build.prop, find this line: ro.config.hw_always_allow_mms=false Is it "false" or "true" in your rom? If it is false, try changing it to true and see what happens. Disclaimer: I am totally guessing here; I have no idea what that will do to your phone.

Disclaimer: I am totally guessing here; I have no idea what that will do to your phone. I'm also not sure what it will do... but i'm guessing it will enable mms downloading in roaming, and I think not many people will want that (it's really just a guess, sounds right, at least in my head :D) Btw, I don't even have that line in my build.prop, and I've never had any issues with receiving messages :( Edited March 19, 2011 by niix2571

Guest niix2571 Posted March 19, 2011 Report Posted March 19, 2011 Hmm, must be a difference between this rom and the DE rom. Maybe not... I've edited every ROM I've ever used... cuz i always find unnecessary stuff in the build.prop so I just remove them... maybe that's why my messages always come :D

Guest niix2571 Posted March 19, 2011 Report Posted March 19, 2011 That is the kind of information that is kind of important when we are discussing what might or might not be causing something to happen or not happen. Yeah, you're right... sorry about that :D

Guest twrock Posted March 21, 2011 Report Posted March 21, 2011 I do have that line in build.prop, it's on False... I'm not using that rom now, and I have no reason to find out what it means, but maybe you do. Why not do some research (googling) on it and see what you find out?
