hello my firends! Im a new android user, bought first android phone just week ago. I have Huawei U8500 and i think it's very new model and there are very few people who have it. There's no official 2.2 or 2.3 version so im looking for ROM. I think there is no ROMs for this model yet ? But can i use ROMs which was created for other phones ? im really really hoping that someone will make 2.2 or 2.3 for this model. Thanks for answers.
i was searching for few days... i understand russian a little bit so i found 2.2 version made by russian guy, i didn't tried it yet becouse i don't how to instal that so i dont know if it's with russian language or not, but fact is that there is 2.2 version for U8500 ! Few russians tried that and it's working fine for them !
it's link for the 2.2 narod.ru/disk/4575221001/%D0%9F%D1%80%D0%BE%D1%88%D0%B8%D0%B2%D0%BA%D0%B02.2_2901.rar.html
Im also trying when i have spare time to locate a u8500 rom . im a extremly novice user tho so prolly wont find much .
Tried to get that russian rom but seems the link is dead or just blocked .
Is anyone working on a eng realease for this phone ?
Or news if there will be a official rel i have missed ?
/thanx

To install it:
1. Unrar it to your computer, and find a folder named "dload" with the biggest size.
2. Copy that "dload" folder to root of your SD card
3. turn off phone
4. Hold volume up key + end call (red) key and the press power key. Wait for it to load, it will say something like "Updating system" Wait for it to finish, if it says fail, just try again
5. After it says "Update complete" or "Update successful" just restart your phone and you'll have the new beta firmware.
6. Reboot can take about 5 minutes. Be patient.
Do it always while charging.
Highly recommend to back up the original firmware before installing new ROM's
On your own risk. You can brick your phone and you void your phones warranty.

Hi, to load phone in recovery mode and to fulfill wipe date and a cache. I apologize for the bad English
How did you guys download this?
The only way i can see the link to proceed to download is via google translate. And when i click it i get a 404.
/Peter
You cant use google translate when clicking! Under the android guy pic, click where it says сюда, you then come to another site, just now click on a link on the page, that will take you to another page (the sponsor page), then you will se that it will start ticking the time in the top of the window, then after that you can click again and actually start the download....

Just wanted to say that this rom works awesome on my u8300.
It requires some tweaking. Change of lcd density etc. And the screen calibration isn't perfekt. But it's much faster than the stock rom so i'll stick with it.
Definetly worth a shot.
But according to a user on another forum there might be problems when you downgrade from a 8500 rom to the stock 8300. I haven't tested, so i can't really comment on that...

Hi, if you searched for it on Google and XDA (as I just did to check), it likely has not been rooted yet. Sorry! The best thing you could do is to google search and search XDA every week or so, maybe something will turn up soon!
I might get one of these, as they're $100 on Target's website for Cyber Monday.
Not enough people have them for someone to invest the time into rooting, but a common root method might work...

Got mines at walmart for $79. I have the same kernel as him except my firmware version is 4.0.3.
Still can't find anything on this damn tablet. Almost wish I didn't buy it heheh.
Supposedly root is available on M-270 but I still can't install Superuser. su is present in xbin too. I tried to use superoneclick and it said it was rooted then I tried to continue with root anyway and it froze. Has anyone had this problem and found a solution yet?

I successfully rooted my Maylong M270 by using the software in the linked thread. I was able to install Google Play, and from there I updated SuperUser and BusyBox. Titanium Backup works properly. Without a custom kernel, overclocking is impossible for the moment, and I'm not too sure on how a kernel (or custom recovery and ROM for that matter) can be ported, but the root is here and working.

I call bogus on this post. I tried both means to root the Maylong M270 using this method and it does not work. Instead of just posting "I DID IT", why not help out the users and post HOW you did it... simply following the links and downloads on the post you've referenced doesn't do it.

I know it's been way long since the OP, but a tool called "ICS root" (can be found on SourceForge) will unlock this tablet. The device is a bit temperamental so once you run the .bat in terminal, you will have to manually restart and log back into the tablet before continuing each prompt at the terminal. Eventually after 2 -3 prompts, the .bat will be finished and the tablet will "update Android", a sign that you have successfully rooted.
Good luck all.

However, I'm not allowed to post links, since I have not posted before. So I'm going to post this info in a series of posts, hoping that by the end, links will be allowed.
To find more info on your tablet there is an app in the Play store called CPU Identifier that will tell you what type of board you have in the tablet. Search for that board name on XDA to find rooting advice.

Custom ROM and ROOT for Maylong M-270
But the short story is, there is a way to root this tablet, but even better there is a custom ROM available. HardcoreHacker over at "techknow dot me" has been working hard on this. The key to figuring this out was realizing the WM8950 SOC chip set used in this tablet is the same as the WM8850. They are interchangeable. The rom is called Uberoid and is Jellybean 4.1.1, and it works great. My tablet runs very well now, and doesn't lock up all the time like it used to. I also have a link where you can download the original firmware from Maylong. So I'm trying to get some posts here so I can do a proper link, however here are some ugly links to try.
Original Firmware:
maylonggroup dot com forward slash Tablet_downloads.htm
and Uberoid Link
3w's "dot" techknow "dot" me "forward slash" forum "forward slash" index.php?topic=5356.0
Again, I apologize for the very cryptic links - I will work on getting them posted properly. I have two of these tablets and both are running Uberoid. I'm very satisfied with it. The only issue I have (on both tablets) is the battery monitoring is very poor. But this is in the kernel I think because it is the same as it was before the custom ROM.
NOTE! - as you will see on the Maylong Site, there are two different models of this tablet - You can tell which you have based on your serial number, but I think this is a pretty important distinction. If you have the same model as I do, you are going to need JingHan_MID7_V715_8228_FT5206.fwc from the Uberoid List. My model's serial number is M2701204 which is in the same group as M2701202, M2701203, and M2701205)

I used SRSRoot on this device and it worked. My device is now rooted.
Hi all,
I'm encountering some problems when i'm trying to update my Hyundai T7S tablet to the official jelly bean 4.2 ROM.
I've the update from the Hyundai website (hyundai-digital .cn). This download comes in a .rar file. I knew it would be impossible, but tried anyway to flash this file from the SD-card. But to make it work this way, the update should be a .zip-file.
In the .rar file are 15 files, some of them are .bin and .img files. And I've not the knowledge what I can do with these files. Unfortunately the support guide of Hyundai can not be opened and two hours googling didn't help me out. So here's my question:
Is it possible to convert the .rar file into a .zip file and flesh this file? Or can I flash the rar-file in some way?
Thanks!
ps. i had the full links copied in my message, but since this is my first post, i cannot post links. Sorry for that!

Extract all files in zip to SD card (ext.). Power OFF. Press Volume - and Power and update will start. Looks like you use Volume + not - witch takes you to recovery mode. When done tablet will turn OFF. Power ON and you should have new firmware.
You are talking about "HYUNDAI T7S-20130318" ?....if yes it is not 4.2 is still 4.0.4; If you found a most recent one (4.2), can you email me with download link please ?....I can't find 4.2 for T7(S). Thank you !

The website says it is 4.0.4, and will update to 4.2 in the future.

exactly. even though some sites advertise it as a 4.2 device, the latest available stable fw is still the 4.0.4 from the 18th of March.
I just tried exynos abuse 1.4 about 2 hours ago on my t7s and it worked like a charm.

from what i've read (some weeks ago): the main hyundai company has told that branch producing the tablets not to manufacture devices to be exported from china, so they're cutting the rest of the world off their official site --> you'll be able to reach the webpage via a chinese proxy (as if you're browsing from china).
about the update for which we're all waiting for: last time it was told to be released in 2013 june, so i still haven't given up yet. anyway: just search for "slatedroid" on the internet if you'd like to get updates about the tablet in english

Another possibility could be porting CyanogenMod OR buying a tablet to a developer. We already have CM for the same SoC, so I think about xplodwild or codeworkx, the two main i9300 maintainers

That would be great!
This tablet will literally fly with CM.
How can I ask to a developer to port to this device? Is it there a specific forum? Or just pm them?

Well that'd then be the reason why the 4.2 ROM for the rest of the world is now available to download through MediaFire rather than an official Hyundai page.
For those who haven't found it yet, this post on the GeekBuying blog details the download and installation of the 4.2.2 upgrade.
I'm in the process of downloading the 222Mb archive now; going rather slow which is nothing new for MediaFire.

Has anyone managed to root this T7s Android4.2.2 ? When I tried to root it , it returned an 'error' saying that this image is sort of immune to rooting. I tried with exynos root method.
Thought i want to give some additional info (if not known already) reagrding the N update coming for the A2017 models.
Today i had some FB conversation with ZTE Mobile Germany to ask some definitve answers for this update to come.
This is what they gave me :
1. When : end of january 2017
2. Which types : all of the types/models get a specific update
3. OTA or SD ? : will be an SD card update (so happy ROOTing guys, because imo the OTA updates are no longer coming after this upgrade to N)
4. Bootloader unlocked : NO (perhaps the advice to unlock it before the N update to be sure you have it unlocked)
5. Root option available in settings : NO
6. test version or the real stuff : REAL STUFF
7. DayDream supported : coming soon (https://vr.google.com/daydream/phones/)
Good news after all i think. Let's wait a little bit longer :cyclops:
@rikin93 can you confirm all of that information ? Especially about bootloader unlock ?
Here is the message
cheers !
ps : so all models get a seperate N - update
@raystef66 i believe you but @rikin93 is our ZTE Europe insider and few weeks ago he said that he got beta Europe unlocker so I wish to hear his position about your statement.

No problem mate I have seen he has written that before.
Hope there is one, otherwise it would be best to unlock before...if this news above is correct.

If Daydream is not included in the first Nougat version, doesn't that mean that there will be an OTA update to add it in later?

Will be supported in first release IMO and if not yet in the first release, it always will be possible to update it via SD when they update a new one. I don't see any problem in that matter.

For simplicity sake, I hope they do get rid of OTA. I think the SD card route would be better, and it allows people to update at their own leisure without nag.

99% of users of most devices would have no clue how to do a sd update.

Well we certainly see that here in the forums. If this is true, it will be good for them to learn.
I dont know what version the root and bootloader unlock is coming on so i will find out ASAP.
However, Nougat should be coming by the end of this month and a B10 update end of this week/next week.
And yes i was previously on a B03 bootloader unlock/root given to me by ZTE to test out and was working fine. My camera broke so i had to get replacement phone so i am off root for now till they release the official one so dont worry guys i will keep bugging them for information!
An SD update is not difficult, just move the update.zip file to root directory of sd card and then go into Settings->Update and the update will be listed there and is straightforward from then on.
B10 is indeed scheduled coming week.
Just got the phone
So, on yours opnion should I unlock BL/Root/xposed right now? Since it`ll be an SD update??
just got my A7 and started reading only today bout unlocking BL/rooting (done this in all my old phones before).
Thanks!

Of course they would all need a separate update -- the modems would all be different. What would be more important would be that some (U and G and maybe Chinese) are based on the same codebase, rather than separate ones. Then the updates would roll out with similar features in a similar time frame.

what? ok it's true most of axon 7 owners are power users but it's not how it should be done at all... OTA is the easiest way to notify your clients of your work, general and security improvements, you don't want them to bother on manually installing updates, you try to make sure everyone is up to date.
If this is true, I hope they mean for the time being, before rolling the update to everyone after through OTA. I don't read german so I can't really know if there are subtleties involved in the syntax.
By the way, weren't there a kind of community forum for european/german model through which we could communicate with the devs in english? or by email?

Of course they would upload different versions due to different modems etc.
I only stated this BECAUSE there were some rumors on other forums that there would be just one for all. Just wanted to make things clear mate

My comment was in the context of general public. There are far more axon 7 in the hands of layfolk than xda users. An ota is the simplest way to push an update through. While the steps are simple, i'm confident people will find ways to screw up copying a file to the sd card.

They have also said end of January / Early February
So i'm forced to buy an SD card to keep my phone up to date? That's not the way a company should handle their customers.
Hello,
I have a MatePad M5 Pro that is stuck on Android 8.
Model: CMR-W19
I don't care if it's official ROM or custom ROM. I would like to maintain the WidevineL1 and mpen and keyboard support.
Can someone please point me in the right direction?
Try downloading HiSense software onto a PC, then connect your Mediapad to the PC and it will check for updates, even if checking for updates on your Mediapad itself doesn't find any.
This worked for mine. I was stuck on 8 too, until HiSense found an update and did the update on my Mediapad, then the Mediapad was able to find further incremental updates itself.

You could try downloading and sideloading.
All updates are here;

Any idea which to use? There are a lot of different Android 9 builds.
And how do I sideload on this device? Sorry if that's a noob question. haven't had to do this for a number of years.
When you click on a version to download, it gives you full instructions on how to install.
You are best going up in stages.
Find the same version that you have currently installed, then download the next version number up.
They're all for the same device, but that is a list of every update that's been released.
So install the next version up from yours, then try searching for the next update manually on your device to see if it then triggers it to keep updating itself. If need, just keep running the updates by SD card method.

Thanks! Im guessing I just can't install the latest update first?
I'm not sure.
Mine did incremental (about 6 in total), even though the latest one was newest.
To be sure, you're best off going up in order.
Because it's fully stock and you're doing in the correct way, it will scan first, so any issues and it won't install - so nothing to lose.
Hi all,
Had a read through this thread to see if there was any chance of an Android Update for my device but from the answers given, I can't seem to find anything.
I'm using an M5 Pro 10.8 (CMR-L09 - Cellular) on 8.0.0.203 and the Huawei Updater site doesn't seem to have anything above this for my model.
If I was to look at installing an OTA for the likes of the CMR-W19, would this harm my device at all?
They're both Cellular, both 10.8". Only thing I can really see different is that they are 64GB and I'm 32GB.
Also, as a side question, I don't have a PC, what's the best way to download and install an update using the device itself?
I look forward to a reply!

In regards to the part of if it would be bad..
CMR-W19 is not an LTE model. So if you do successfully flash the ROM, not sure if you would have issues with LTE.
Ahhh, glad I checked! Thanks for the reply!

Would I use the OTA-MF or FULLOTA-MF?
CMR-AL19 (m5 Pro 64gb LTE) here. I'm on 8.0.0.199 Android 8.0 With July 19 Security patches. No Update available. Huawei support told me there is no newer version available for this Model.... I'm abit mad coz it's even the 'pro' Model..
