This ROM is overclockable!!! The overclock settings are built into the system settings.
I have safely Overclocked this phone to 1117, and it's pretty stable at 1132. Anything higher will make the phone unstable.
Thanks to Cameron581 and No|Name for kernel and Dazzozo for baserom.
Thanks to Zerosedev for the helpful guide, and hit 'Thanks' if this helped!
Also, I apologize if this thread bothers anyone with the Ideos S7. I saw that the forums were a little empty and not many people went on it and since our device (Huawei Fusion 2) doesn't have a forum on XDA, I thought this may be a good way to keep things organized.

Yeah I will also update on that, I wanna use this because it's very organized, well so is the AndroidForums, but eh, I'll keep them updated
Have you tried increasing the voltage trough the kernel at the higher clockrates?
I have not dared clock the S7 higher then the maximum 1ghz, but if you either tweak the voltage settings trough the menuconfig or hack it, it might become more stable at around 1150 mhz

You can download it here: http://androidforums.com/fusion-2-all-things-root/730066-how-install-cyanogenmod-10-1-jellybean-4-2-2-fusion-2-a.html
But, you should back up your 3g first. link to how to: http://androidforums.com/fusion-2-all-things-root/729700-read-before-flashing-ics-jellybean-roms.html
Is there a way we can get a recent version (CM10.1) built? Also, how do we get the 2GB internal partition recognized?
I picked up a pair of these and switched them both to CM10.1. Unfortunately, there is only ~350MB of space for the /system partition (I'm working on this). I will need the partition map so I can actually shuffle some space around. I'm looking at taking (maybe) a 200MB chunk out of /data and sticking it in /system. Either that, or making a normal CM10.1 build and a barebones gapps build.
Also, I noticed this has a built-in FM radio according to several sites. Any ideas?

thank you
Hi guys I have troubbles to download the files
please can upload againg in other server zip, i can`t download i need the rom for my phone huawei u8665
No mod for phone
I have a Fusion 2 Huawei U8665 phone I would like to put Cyanogenmod on. I would love the most current vision that would work for the phone. All of the links I've followed to get the mod, leads to a page saying "The file you're trying to download is no longer available". Can anyone help me find what I need to do this. I've already rooted the phone, and backed up the 3g fix files. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Yeah the links don't work anymore. I hope someone has an archive out there since my device is stuck on CM7.2/Android 2.3.7 as Slimbean just shows the AT&T logo and doesn't boot unless I flash CM7.2 again. My U8665 doesn't even work with any of my SIM cards anyways, and besides, Phone by Google on my Galaxy A03s is still a decent UI.

Now that I have a gs2 I really don't know what to do with android. Can someone please just post 3 to 5 things I should do with my phone to best improve my experience and Instructions on how to do them? That would be rally helpful as I do know my way around phones but I'm completely clueless when it comes to rooting and development
I don't to come off rude, but please search before starting a thread like this.

I was new to Android too with this phone about a month ago.. I would suggest playing around with it first, figuring out how you like your widgets laid out, what your settings for all your apps should be, etc, before you consider rooting/flashing.. Initially the battery may seem weak, but give it time to stabilize (and also your usage will go down once the newness wears out).. Through various posts you will figure out what apps are good, which ones drain your battery, and which ROM fits your need.. I'm on unnamed ROM and love it.. Let me know if I can help with anything in specific!

Check out the terms and acronyms link in my signature, so you have some basic level of understanding the terminology in the posts.
Look for some apps that interest you in the Android Market, just to start getting a feel for all the things your phone can do with applications...
Decide where to start - such as getting apps that need root level permissions (like Titanium Backup), and how to root on your phone. Or do you want to customize how your phone looks? See what you have available on your phone first, see what you like (or what annoys you!) and then how to change it. Basically get some starting goals.
Start looking up applicable posts, such as how to flash a custom ROM using Odin, customizations such as ADW.Launcher, etc. Be prepared for a lot of reading, and following instructions to the letter!
...(?)
Profit!
Seriously though, the phone has a huge amount of potential ... you have to figure out what you want to do. Chances are someone has posted a guide to do it (or someone helpful will reply) -- but it's up to you to decide what you want.
Your best bet is to read...a lot. Start here and here. And if you have questions about things, I suggest asking via IRC. People get pissed when the forum gets cluttered up. Best of luck to you.

Ok. here is the easy way to start your i777 SGS2 adventure
If you plan on flashing a custom rom you will not need to root your phone because all of the custom
roms here in XDA forums are pre-rooted.
Here is the best and easiest way to flash/install a custom rom and backup your original stock rom.
First you need to install the Samsung USB drivers into windows.
(Be sure to use the original Samsung USB cable for trouble-free operation)
Here is the link for the Samsung Unified USB Driver: http://api.viglink.com/api/click?for...13196871580881
After installing the usb driver above restart windows.
Now is a good time to download a custom rom of your choice, there are about 5 or 6 you can choose from.
I would suggest to download the "UnNamed" custom rom which can be found here: update-unnamed-v1.1.0-full.zip
It is currently the best and most reliable full featured custom rom you can find for our i777 phone.
After you have downloaded a custom rom you need to copy it to your phone's internal sdcard.
To copy the rom zipfile to your phone you need to go into the settings of the phone:
settings>applications>development>usb debugging and make sure that the "USB debugging" is disabled.
Connect the usb cable from computer to the phone and open "Computer" from the start menu in windows &
there you will find a "SGH-I777" drive icon.
Open it and you will see 2 icons, PHONE and CARD, copy the custom rom zipfile you downloaded into the
PHONE drive. (you will only see CARD if you have an external micro sdcard in the phone)
Now you need to download these two files below.
SGH-I777_ClockworkMod-Recovery_5.0.2.3.tar kernel: http://www.multiupload.com/QQKN7NJAFT
Odin3_v1.83.exe Windows Executable: http://hotfile.com/get/116095613/4ea...din3_v1.83.exe
Copy both of these files into a new folder on your desktop.
Open Odin3 in your new folder & select the PDA button & select the "SGH-I777_ClockworkMod-Recovery_5.0.2.3.tar" file.
Once this is done press the volume up & volume down buttons at the same time & hold them pressed
until you plug the usb cable from computer to the phone & you see the triangle on the phone's screen
and the "COM:XX" box in Odin3 light up yellow.
Then click the START button in Odin3 to start the kernel flash.
After successfully flashing you will see the blue CWM Recovery menu of options.
Select "Reboot System" from the menu.
After the phone reboots go back to settings and enable the usb debugging & power down the phone.
Now press & hold both volume buttons & press and hold the power button at the same time until you
see the SAMSUNG text on screen then let go of power button first then let go of the volume buttons.
Wait for the blue CWM menu then select "backup/recovery" then select "backup".
The phone will start backing up your stock rom at this point.
Once it gets done backing up your stock rom you can flash the custom rom.
To flash your custom rom select "Wipe data/Factory reset" from the menu.
Then select "Install zip from sdcard" & select the custom rom zipfile which
you have copied to your phone.
Once it gets done flashing & installing select "reboot system".
Using the blue clockworkmod recovery menu:
HOME softkey = selects.
BACK softkey = go back.
Volume Up/Volume Down = scroll up & down.
Now you are ready to use the phone. (at last!!!)

A lot of people probably (like me) have always wanted to be able to play again their good old Java games that they used to play on their past phones. On my LG KP500 I used to play lots of touchscreen games which don't seem to be available for Android today. And as you all know, Android OS can't just open a jar file when you tap on it. So in this guide we will make our SGY play Java games.
So let's start off by downloading Jbed.zip - Click here. and put it somewhere in your SD card.
After that, put CWM.zip (ClockWorkMod Recovery) also on your SD card. - Click here to download CWM
Now boot into Recovery by holding Volume up + Home button + Power button.
Please note that in Recovery mode you can only use Volume up for up, Volume down for down, and Home button for selection.
Once you are there, select "apply update from sd card".
Look for CWM.zip and press Home button after you have selected it. You will now boot into CWM Recovery.
After you are there, go to "install zip from sd" then select the first option and it will let you browse your SD card.
Look for Jbed.zip wherever you have put it, and press the Home button to apply. It will then ask you if you are sure, choose Yes.
After installation, it should say "Install from sdcard complete". When you see that, press the back button and then choose Reboot phone.
After you have turned on your SGY, look in the menu for the app called "Java", the icon should be a cup.
How to install and play them:
Now once after you have installed Jbed, download your desired java games on your SD card, then run the Java app which I've mentioned above and press the options button on your SGY, then press "SD card".
After that wait a while and it will start looking for the jar files, it will detect them and list them, then you choose which one to install:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
After that it will ask you in which directory, I just chosed SD Card. So choose that, click OK if it tells you that the game is untrusted (with your responsibility) and wait for it to install.
Then go to the folder SD Card and you will see the game. Start it and play!
I'm sorry if this has already been posted in the past, probably in other boards for different models so I thought I'd have one here. Mods may delete if such thread already exists in SGY boards, I'm really sorry just trying to help.
Also if you have already seen this in GalaxyYarchive blog, I'm the one that posted, just want to clear my name.
Java game sample:
Only landscape games can be played.
i really appritiate ur GUIDE
but i dont like java games

Yep, I thought it was only for some games, turns out it can't play portrait.
Now here are the steps to install the “Pure Look S3 [v3.1.1 Final]” ROM on the Galaxy S2:
Download the _purelook S3 v3.1.1 final XWLPG.zip (do not extract), and copy it to the SD Card of your device by connecting it to your computer via USB cable.
Charge your device’s battery to at least 70% level.
Backup all your contacts, messages, and other important data.
Enable USB Debugging Mode on your device. Go to Settings> Applications>> Development>> USB Debugging On.
Now boot it into CWM Recovery Mode. You can do this in three ways. If you can see a utility called CWM Manager on your device, ope it and select “Reboot into ClockWorkMod Recovery”. Another way is to download the ROM Manager app from the Google Play Store and use “Reboot into Recovery” option. You can also boot your device in the Recovery mode by this way: switch off the device, and keep pressed the Volume Up+Home+Power keys simultaneously till the startup screen with Samsung Galaxy S2 logo blinks for two times.
In the Recovery Mode, select “wipe data/factory reset” and “wipe cache partition” and confirm your choice by selecting “Yes”.
Then go to “advanced” option and choose “wipe dalvik cache” and confirm the choice.
Then return back to the main menu and select “install zip from sdcard>> choose zip from sdcard”. Browse to the “_purelook S3 v3.1.1 final XWLPG.zip” file and select it.
CWM Recovery will start flashing the ROM on to your Galaxy S2 and will take a few minutes to finish.
When it is complete, go back to main menu and select “reboot system now”.
It will take a few minutes for you device to reboot. Do not panic if it takes a longer time and wait patiently.

Select “mounts and storage”, then select “format system”. Select “Yes” on next screen to confirm. Go back to main recovery menu after system format is complete.

Hi, Bro! Nice work, deleted all excess software, so speed of the work is good. Free RAM space after first run - 240mb. But I`m found some problems. For example, volume of multimedia is decreased by 50%. This firmware have Xperia SSpeed Kernel v3 with him problems (some peoples says what Wi-Fi Routing doesn`t work). I use this firmware a week, estimate is 5+
flashing via Flash tool ? Stock kernel remains ? Please include in your first post Installation notes.

Switch off device
Boot it and as soon as it vibrates for the first time and blue led glows press volume up (+) key
Walla recovery menu pops up
Sent from my MT27i using xda premium
With next ROM update could you remove this annoying data off notification. It drives me crazy

Yeah but this is recovery mode , not ClockworkMod Recovery. I can install this rom also using stock recovery ? thank you.
awesome HD video support here... how about wifi signal and wifi hotspot signal?!?
Suggestion/Request
First off, it is nice to see people pitching in for xperia sola development and I thank you for that. However, can you somehow change the theme to ICS like theme? I kinda like the ICS theme. Thanks in advance.

Thank you. I think you mean this CMW http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766892
Root explorer is paid app, please remove it.
i prefer the original theme:fingers-crossed: but thank you very much
As i can see on the screenshots, it's lacking the 14 quickpanels. I Hope to see it on the next release, but btw, you did really great!!
Hey! Great upload. I've just got this phone yesterday only and and a fun time playing around with it.
Flashed your ROM just only and I've noticed several notes I might like to point out.
-Is there any way to revert back to stock theme? (I don't fancy the statusbar icons you've set.. no offense!)
-Livewallpaperpicker.apk should come in useful. Especially since you have cosmicflow.apk installed.
Edit: Will try it for a day or two and report in any bugs!
Regarding the points I've suggested, its YOUR rom so of course, develop and style it as you wish
But for each unique user's peferences, could you upload an attachment of apk-s which you've removed from the stock ROM as well as the stock theme's files to revert back? Would be really useful.
Cheers and thanks for your work! Amazing
You do not need root to do this. This will wipe your device, back it up if you care. When I truly thought about it, I really didn't give a hoot about a backup. Contacts are stored on my SIM.
This is a guide to help you get from 5.1.1 on a g900t to 4.4 so you can get your root on. It is important to note that you have to downgrade and it is even more important to note that you can brick your device and you assume all responsibility for actions you take.
(If you truly like 5.1.1 and custom kernels, be sure to stop here and go to this post instead -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=61877146 )
I wanted to root my S5 and had no idea how to do that. Well duh, you pull up youtube and look for the guy with the most trusting voice, good instructions, and more likes than dislikes and root your 5.1.1 right? Nah, that bricked my phone. Then I actually had to learn about my device, others like it and spent a good 4 hours meticulously fixing my device.
Now, installing root will trigger knox but I believe downgrading to 4.4 from 5.1.1 may not, but I cannot be 100% sure since I already triggered knox thanks to Mr Youtube bricking my phone.
Once you are on 4.4 you can root your phone using a ton of guides all over the place. For someone new to rooting a samsung device your google searches may be something like "S5 root" and eventually evolve to "S5 root g900t lollipop 5.1.1" and you will get nothing, spam or people asking the same thing with others saying "You can't do that". I didn't care about 5.1.1, I hated it in fact, so these comments saying "no you can't" kinda pissed me off.
Items you will need that I will link you to ->
Odin
Android 4.4 image
Optional: Android 5.1.1 image (in case things get scary and you want to revert)
Let's Start ::
1. Download odin from your favorite source (Sorry, there seems to be too many weird links on google for this, but here is a forum post on this website -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2711451 ) and I am not comfortable hosting it.
2. Download Android 4.4 image, sources for this ->
Sammobile http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G900T/
Alternative: http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SM-G900T
These sites are so damn slow. I got the image uploading to Mega atm and will update this post with a Mega link when they finish.
Optional: Download Android 5.1.1 image (ending in FOG6) so you can revert if needed, sources for this ->
Sammobile http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G900T/
Alternative: http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SM-G900T
These sites are so damn slow. I got the image uploading to Mega atm and will update this post with a Mega link when they finish.
3. Grab your phone and turn it off.
4. Hold in the Volume Down button, the Home button and then hold down the Power button until you see a message telling you that you are going to break your phone and void your warranty. Confirm you wish to break all the things by pressing the Volume Up button.
5. Plug in your phone to your computer and open up Odin. In Odin you will see a bunch of blank boxes and hopefully one of them on the ID:COM section is blue which indicates your device is plugged in. If you see the blue box showing connected, you can continue.
6. Click Options and make sure the only 2 boxes checked are Auto-Reboot and F. Reset Time. In the section to the right (Files [Downloaded]), check the second checkbox next to "AP". Click the text labeled "AP" and select the 4.4 android image you downloaded already. The program may sort of freeze up but just wait for a few seconds and let it clear up.
(You should read the rest of these steps entirely before continuing to follow).
7. Click the start button at the bottom and wait for it to finish. You want to catch the next reboot fast so you can enter into recovery otherwise you have a sweet softbrick boot loop. If so it is no big deal, yank out the battery because you need to clear some cache and factory reset.
8. When the reboot is coming back up, quickly hold in Volume Up, Home Button and Power Button to get into androids default recovery. Once you see blue letters at the top left "Recovery Booting" you can let go of the button combination.

9. Go down to the option to "wipe cache partition" using the volume keys and use the power button to select it.
10. Go down to the selection "wipe data/factory reset" using the volume keys and use the power button to select it..
11. Check the section at the top "reboot system now" using the volume keys and use the power button to select it.
12. Give it a little bit of time (2 minutes max) to get passed the tmobile carrier screen and you should see the new device setup screen. YAY you downgraded to 4.4 and now all those wonderful guides on rooting your S5 become relevant to you at last!
If you get nervous and want to chop back to 5.1.1 follow the exact same instructions but select the 5.1.1 android image instead of the 4.4 one.
I hope this helps someone new to this that is on 5.1.1 and seeing a lack of resources on getting to root and not caring about 5.1.1 in general. I actually think you can get all the features of 5.1.1 through custom roms once you get back to 4.4.
If I am missing something, left something out or mistyped something please let me know.
Rooting the S5 is really up to you. Some people swear by it, but if I can be honest, once I had it done on my phone I was severely disappointed (and felt regret) in the lackluster apps and things you can do. The best reason to root for me was to control permissions (which is a paranoia game you start to play with your apps) and freeze system apps that came with my device. Freezing the silly ass software update that kept bugging me to update was fantastic as well as the oogle of google apps I will never ever use like Google Music and TV, My Magazine, etc.

That is a pretty cool article, but seems really geared towards people who already know what to do a little bit though right? This definitely did not pop up on any google search, but if it did at the time when I knew zero about rooting, I would have clicked away if I can be honest. Sorry man.
Not really. Just about an hour quicker and not losing everything.
