Unable to update to ICS - B892 - Huawei G300

[Guest petrichor.14]

Hi MoDaCo users, 

       I bought a second hand Huaewi G300 on ebay and I think the previous owner rooted it to its current state of B892. I am unable to install the B895 over the air update and thus not able to get subsequent offical updates to ICS.

 

 

    When I attempt to install the over the air offical update to B895, I am presented with the following error report:

Checking patch files....

assert failed: apply_patch_check("/system.build.prop","ac598a5a321b37d30d1ce8edafabf2c9523b859", "9ab8f4f494af0aa256193fd0a53efdae8c30ecca")

pid=114, staturs=1792

E:Error in sd/card/HwOUC.update.zip

(Status 7)

Formatting /cache....

Installation aborted.

 

 

I would be very grateful if someone could please help me solve this issue or even just explain some of the confusing code jargon.

Thank you in advance :)

Bump. I would be really appreciative of the help. I was hoping the ICS update could improve sound issues and picture quality. If not, I'll just chalk this up to experience and sadly purchase new phone.

It sounds like you are failing to update via OTA. Go here and download the UPDATE.app. http://consumer.huawei.com/en/mobile-phones/support/downloads/detail/u8815-en.htm?id=13968. Copy only the dload folder to your external sd card and turn your phone off. Hold power and both volume keys and you should see a progress bar. Once it is finished it will automatically wipe your phone and boot you into ICS.

 

Cheers
