[ICS] Found U8815 B927 ROM

[Guest]

just adding the toolbox.apk would enable them,

its the code huawei have added to systemUI.apk to show toolbox.apk that's a problem for me,

removing it is rather hard in .smali formate lol

Yeah I know it is not a matter of adding toolbox :lol: I just thought you could use this build as your base, and thought as they are enabled it would make for easier hacking for you, but then they are not configurable so you probably have no use for them.

@dazzozo, I was on B926 and upgraded no problem, was you also on B926 ?

Not working here. Very strange. It just clears the number buffer.

you cant get logcat working ? or just after you switch rom ?

[Guest Dazzozo]

Just after I switch ROM, it's fine if I do it on B927 itself.

have you checked permissions for

system / bin / logcat

in the new rom ?

Yeah I noticed that, cannot do nothing right can they, oh and what a suprise, turn to landscape and they go supersize, did not even bother to fix that.

Yep, it's /dev/log still missing that's the issue I think.

Is it failing due to bootloader version check Andy? this bootloader version number may not be. in the list as it doesn't officially exist yet on the u8815 so its looking for an older version bootloader, sees you have the latest bootloader already so sees no need to update.

Hi again!

After seeing this post/question I went back to the page where rsrocha found the Rom originally.

There it says:

Note: If the upgrade process to run a screen and then press the 'Update failure', now calm. Download the file attached to this article on 'U8815 package.zip middle', unzip, copy the file 'UPDATE.APP' folder 'dload' on the memory card (note that there is only one file 'UPDATE.APP' only offline). Then proceed to machine finish update this file. Once completed, then back in Step 3 is OK to continue performing.

Is this Middle Package some sort of "update.app" that paves the way to avoid bootloader check errors, making it possible to upgrade after without any problems/issues?

Anyone tried it yet?

[Guest tracasan]

Can someone please tell me if this rom has the sim tool kit app in the app drawer?

[Guest FrankieADZ]

Wont this affect the ICS ROMS currently in production?

Like yours Tillaz?

and Paul's Ir1

as they use B926

*If you install this 1 and not B926?

[Guest fr0do]

@ Jikobutsu, how did you install this? I have been through the settings> software> update, but the pink bar gets 1/3 way across then just stops

Andrew

Aren't you supposed to do this booting with both volume keys pressed??

[Guest tillaz]

both, then double click part 1 to extract them as a whole archive

[Guest runlevel5]

if your running windows and don't have winrar installed use 7zip to extract the rar files, its freeware.

[Guest anything-but]

Blimey,looks like i missed all the fun last night! So,does the rom contain all the google stuff or is that on the vendor folder?

[Guest Andymac1969]

All the Google Apps are included in the ROM

I'm updating from 926 and my pink bar seems to have stalled at 9mm (yes I have a ruler out! :P ). Is pulling the battery going to brick it?

[Guest FrankieADZ]

both, then double click part 1 to extract them as a whole archive

but there are 2?

by that i mean C00B926.Part 1 has a Dload & Vendor Files(with Update.app) and C00B926.Part 2 has the same. :wacko:

hmm, the boot images are quite different looking at the size of both..

B926 = 6.36mb

B927 = 3.99mb

Just tried mine and it did the same,pulled the battery and just booted back into 926 fine. Will have to try again tonight as work calls!

[Guest tillaz]

they are the same files, its just that the archive has been split into two parts (normally because of upload size limits)

you cant extract part1 without part2, what you see inside them are the same thing

[Guest tillaz]

i would upload my repack of B927 (flashable .zip) but is 254mb and my upload speeds are really crappy :(

[Guest Hans Gruber]

I've just tried twice more an every time it stops at the same place. Maybe it will need a downgrade before working.

OK tried downgrading to b885 first, then flashing but it's still stalling at 9mm. Can't like my phone for some reason.

What firmwares are people successfully upgrading to b927 from?
