How do i enter the settings manually on this phone, anybody know?

It's no great mystery: Goto system settings > more > mobile networks > access point names and create new entries there using the details you've been resourceful enough to acquire from your carrier's website... Profit.

Update on HauweiDeviceUK facebook page

We’re sorry last week’s news wasn’t as great as hoped. All of the issues you’ve posted on here around the update are being looked into by Huawei and Vodafone. We realise that this doesn’t help immediately, but we’re working on it. In the meantime, we have issued a software version for Gingerbread. We’ll share more news when we can. Apologies we can’t be more specific at this stage.

[Guest Maximus9]

"We have issued a software version for Gingerbread" ?? What is that supposed to mean??

[Guest Simon O]

Downgrader to Gingerbread like last time they messed up.

After installing UK Vodafone ICS - B965 my pc is now telling me that windows is unable to install my android. Can anyone please advise as to where I can get some driver software? I have looked on the Huawei website but to no avail. My pc is running windows vista.

When you connected your phone to p.c via USB , you should see the driver package along with you storage drives have you looked.

Yes I've looked, and there's no indication of a driver package!

[Guest bladebuddy]

What version is 965 as that's not the official u.k vodafone upgrade to ICS.

Apologies, that was meant to read B936

@tykatem, do you need to be following the 'like you were thread'

http://www.modaco.com/topic/357243-explained-like-youre-5-install-custom-roms-from-scratch-install-the-official-ics-update-root-more/

the page on installing drivers, http://huaweig300.com/how-to-root-the-huawei-g300/install-usb-drivers/

or am I missing the point somewhere.

That did it, many thanks

[Guest kar999]

Am I right in assuming this B936f ICS is the same as the NZ version but with all extra UK Vodafone bloatware?

I upgraded the other day and posted that I wanted to find the easiest way to get rid of the bloatware. I beleive I can root the phone and blackllist certain apps but instead can I still install the official NZ version? If so, a link to the right thread would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance...

BTW I was going to bit the bullet and install Infusion as I am quite comfortable with rooting etc. having installed Swedish Spring on my ZTE blade but I couldnt get any drivers to work with my XP PC before I downloaded the official OTA upgrade to B936f. (I can now see the phone no problem post upgrade.)......

Looks like there trying to win back some customers lol they couldn't of timed it worse really. Cm9 or stock hhhmmmmm. Noticed they said its a new build.

[Guest flyer38]

Just had notification that there is an OTA update B936F dated 17-11-2012.

Does anyone know if this one works or is it the same buggy version Vodafone released earlier this month (or was it last month?)

[Guest b4da55]

They have stated today a new release was due shortly so its possible. If you try it please let us know how it is

[Guest kieranswhite]

Where did they say this??

Think I'll let someone else 'boldly go' first ;)

[Guest flyer38]

Ignore, I got the release date wrong, it's 17/10/2012 not 17/11/2012 :blush:

So they are still pushing out the broken update despite all the comments about it in the Vodafone forums and elsewhere...incredible :rolleyes:

[Guest b4da55]

Huawei device uk fb page. Theres a Llnk there to a app specifically for the ics update.

[Guest Craigy1892]

Hi

I dont know if you have heard, but apparently Huawei will be issuing a new software version next wednesday for those on Official Vodafone approved software

Thanks Craigy1892

I think that is because the G300 is a done and dusted model for them. Is not selling anymore anywhere, although I think Vodafone website still has it listed, but that is it, no more Tesco, Amazon etc.

28/11/12 New Vodafone update
