Guest Goremans Posted March 15, 2011 Report Posted March 15, 2011 Hey you've prob guessed! I'm a noob @ all things Android. I bought a Huawei U8230 (not hugely impressed) Though I would like to upgrade it to 2.2 Froyo. Anyone have any tips, can this be done on this model (bought in Australia) Kernel Version 2.6.29-perf Baseband version 6383 Firmware Version 2.1 update 1. Great if anyone could help me out with this! Is it even worth doing??? Cheers :D

Root: http://android.modaco.com/content/t-mobile...or-android-2-1/ Working ROM: http://android.modaco.com/content/t-mobile...port-for-pulse/ Just simply follow the instructions there, btw these are to T-Mobile Pulse(u8220), it is almost the same as u8230.

Sweet thank you so much I will let you know how I go. And post my results. I just suck at all this phone business. Cheers

For me it is working perfectly since. My bugs: - Some widgets not loading after reboot - camera bug, just using FX Camera from market - "eats memory" , after 2-3days reboot required to free up memory - have tried http://android.modaco.com/content/t-mobile...-modifications/ but the GUI rebooted in every 30-60seconds so i don't recommend this, but worth a try!
