Prelude to official ics release

[Guest luvvt]

Read the link first otherwise the pm will not make any sense.

Not long after my last post on that forum Johnr sent me the private message below.

He states that he added on a couple of weeks and that ics could be released next week.

I can't post a link to the image as its on my private account, and for some reason the upload on here only gives me this small image. If some one could give me a pointer I would be happy to reload.

Have you tried just dragging the image into the text area on these boards?

[Guest luvvt]

just tried, the image I have saved is 1030x450 pixels but it seems to be this forums uploader thats reducing it

Imageshack?

Thanks for posting this, luvvt. I think it's really great news, isn't it? Hope they'll make it available as a download on the Huawei website so we can all enjoy it, and not just the lucky kiwis using Vodafone! :)

Don't worry about the image, BTW, it's perfectly readable at least for me.

Is anyone really still waiting for this with a perfectly fine b934 and CM10 right around the corner thanks to daz?

Wouldnt the su bootloader tool from B926 do the trick as it has for all the ics releases ??

We won't know until it's released and someone tries it.

Hmm, modaco doesn't seem to allow direct image embedding. Tried

[img=http://img837.imageshack.us/img837/9586/pm5.png] and also [IMG=http://img837.imageshack.us/img837/9586/pm5.png][/IMG]

and get "You are not allowed to use that image extension on this community."

Also tried with .jpg

Oh well

yeah using the image button on the toolbar was the first thing I tried. Must have cocked it up. God knows how.

[Guest luvvt]

Sorry I'm not trying to take over your post.. Just open the image in a new window, then just drag and drop the image into the text area.

I'll remove the above image now.

I am, personally, just to avoid any warranty issues.

I don't want to root my phone so I'm waiting for the official ICS update from Vodafone but in the mean time I want to use my giffgaff sim (my phone is unlocked), once the official ICS update is out how will I obtain it?, will it just be a simple case of putting my Vodafone sim back in and updating and then reverting back to my giffgaf sim?

It should be that simple, but then again it is Vodafone

I don't think you'd need your vodafone sim.. I don't even have one and all of the updates so far have worked fine.

[Guest adrien56]

hope we get the HW acceleration working

[Guest lowrider007]

Thanks for quick replies, guess I can start using my phone on giffgaff then!, I've just come from the original oled San Francisco with the stock FW/OS, the difference is night and day, although I will say now I've got a taste how Android feels on a better phone I want more, I'm hoping ICS will keep me satsfied for a while once it's released, I see on twitter Huawei said U8815 will get opengl 2.0, can't wait!
