No he can not. This is an international, english speaking community, and English is the language being used. I'm not dictating OP what to do, it's the forum rules.

Don't comeback to .475....it's old firmware with many bugs as SOD. I like black UI also but this is should not be a reason to return to .475. (wait a theme which is will be soon)
.532 brought "a lot" of fixing, much better performance (benchmarking is proof).
Be smart man.
But of course this is my opinion and if you still want to go back to the old you need to install:
-Flashtool v0.9.12.1
-after when you installed Flashtool>>>you need to install Flashtool-drivers.exe which is located in C>Flashtool>Drivers.
-Choose firmware you want.

Yes, i'm aware of this, and it's not really hard to understand people who aren't perfect in english, and all it takes is to read the post(s) again, and hopefully we'll get it, but it's even worse to switch over to a different language, since you're basically blocking out any help from other forum members that did understand something before, but doesn't understand anything now. I didn't catch the "use Google Translate" bit, and that's perfectly fine to use
OP's post is perfectly understandable though, but i took the freedom to "re-write" it. I haven't changed much, since i don't need to.
Hi All.
I like my ZU. I've tried a lot of ROMs, but I've found that the stock ROM is the most stable. One thing is confusing me though. The phone UI has changed in the 510 and 532 updates, and it's not the same as 475. The in-call pictures are smaller, and the button order is very ugly.
So, I flashed my ZU back to 475.
I have two options. Upgrade to 532 and lose my favorite phone UI or live with the OTA notification in the status bar (which is indicating that there is a firmware update)
1: Is it possible to completely remove the notification?
or:
2: Get the 475 phone UI after i've upgraded to 532?
3: XDA has developers. Does anyone want to implement the 475 phone UI into the 532 firmware?
Please help me
This link shows a nice button order since it doesn't have big empty spaces like 532.

To answer the questions:
1. Yes, but you'll have to be rooted and delete the Sony Update Center app.
2. I don't really know, but i doubt it. Don't take my word for it though.
3. I really doubt anybody would be up for it since it's such a minor detail.

hi everyone
i`ve got a problem with my sgs2.
since the last update version, my phone doesn`t run smoothly anymore.
when scrolling through the menu or contactlist it`s like the page is holding back. before the update i haven`t got any problems with it. I`ve gone to a servicepoint to reset the whole system to the earliest version. didn`t work. I`ve send it back to where i bought it, they say we`ve repared it... nothing seems to have happened.
it`s so frustrating to see that this expensive phone, witch they say is the fastest and the best of it`s kind, seems to have such a problem.
Does somebody know what to do? because I don`t.
greetz marcel
so you have used warranty repair?? May as well root and install a faster custom rom
since the op doesn't come from the deep internet....... i shal explain that there is a search function in this website.
And i am not certain this specific post will help OP in any way, since he just sent it to warranty, due to...that.....
Sorry but sincerely, why did you buy a Samsung Galaxy S2? are you coming from an iPhone?
[EDIT] Anyway, this question might be useful for future reference, in a mere chance that a new user might actually use this so mythical search function.
If after you updated the operative system version to *whatever* you can always revert it to the version you previously had. This might conclude to a confusing stage of your life, since samsung seem to have hit an infinite loop of versions releases and most probably you might get more confused than you already are.
Simply follow guides and instalation instructions in the Development sections... !!!***BUT***!!! remember, development section and threads are strictly to that finality, development. Questions and other doubts are to be posted in the Q&A or General sub-sections.
I honestly wish that i dont sound rude in any and every way, and if i do, i hereby ask for forgiveness... -.-'
You can factory reset and test .
You can install a later stock rom and test .

Yes you sound rude and probably no help to OP, also the condescending tone in your post makes this community look bad for the novices who have genuine problems IMO. Is it because he has 1 post? If he was saying something like "WHY PHONE HAZ LAG? WHAT BEST FIRMWARE FOR NO LAG?" then I would understand your post.
Anyway's, good luck OP! I had the same problems with custom ROM's and Kernel's (firmware) but since I was doing custom stuff, I voided my warranty and had to deal with it myself via full wipes and a kernel cleaning script amongst all the flashing. How did you try to update your firmware?

I get the same thing happening, but only on the call logs.
I think it holds about 500 logs and every so often when I try to scroll down a few pages it starts to freeze then flows again and keeps doing that the more I keep scrolling down.
I think it happens because sometimes I don't use that list for a long period so it needs to reload the list. Also could be the first time after I restore a backup.
Anyway, I just keep scrolling all the way to the bottom and after that all is good again. It a bit like loading the gallery for the first time. After that it loads quickly.

hi guys
couple of questions:
i have a XEUK firmware on 2.3.4 at the moment, unbranded, unlocked and rooted and phone notified me that there's an upgrade available:
- will the upgrade work via wireless from the about menu straight away or i need to go via kies?
- apps, contacts, photos and videos are gonna be deleted?
- root, will that stay or i will have to do it again?
- camera, is the white balance improved when using flash with ICS? right now colors act up with the flash, thats a known bug..
that being said, my phone runs great so i am wondering if is worth or not to upgrade, i dont care of having the very very latest release...
for who will answer these few questions, thanks in advance!
Gabrio
1. I believe you do need Kies, I wasn't able to update my phone without it.
2. No, however I strongly recommend you to backup the phone, just in case.
3. You will have to root again.
4. Not sure about this one, sorry.
Honestly, I was extremely disappointed after update because, although everything worked just fine, the phone became a little laggy and I wasn't able to change screen DPI (I bricked my phone twice as well).

No you didnt, unless you fixed it via JTAG.
Screwing up while flashing resulting in rom not booting isnt "bricking" unless you cant enter download mode or recovery.

Thank you. I wish people would stop throwing around the term "brick" so loosely.
Okay, I got a bootloop twice. The point is, it hasn't been very stable for me lately.
That too... Stable means the thing runs without any issues and Ics do run without issues, you fiddled with it than say thing is not stable is also wrong.

Omg. Why don't u all kill him while your at it.
yay "bricked" is a wrong description and ics runs without issues.
a correction to "semibricked" would have been enough and ics isn't that great yet. Bit sluggish and very poor battery, even on cm9-aokp-aosp and cn,but the Devs is working hard to solve these "issues".

bootloop = not bricked
formated system partition = not bricked
kernel issues with boot loops = not bricked
so on
Thanks for answers everyone... At this point im not sure i will upgrade now.. I was really curious if they fixed the camer with flash white balance problem...
Anyone on ics up for a test? Just take a pic indoors with flash possibly in the evening or a bit of dark area..not pitch black of course, do colors look strange?.. As of now white balance looks really funny. With a quick photoshop fix looks good.. Agreed is just a phone but doesnt seem as so hard to fix..

that will never be fixed untill they fix camera firmware.......
so if you use flash be as close as possible, if you use flash in low light situation from little far it will comeout blue tint....

Kill him?, stop over-reacting child. Simply correcting his misconception. Also yours.
There is no such thing as "semibricked", Its either bricked or it isnt, simple as that. Screwing up your flash which results in rom not booting as normal is not "bricked" or "semibricked". Its only bricked when it wont boot into rom, download or recovery and only option is hardware recovery like for example when you wipe/corrupt your bootloader.
i forgot to ask one thing... how is the battery with ICS? at the moment my phone does 1 full day with heavy usage and 2 days with moderate/medium usage...

The below is a method brunes came up with:
brunes_007 said:
Having bought one of these from China, and having very little to noting written on this device so far, I had to figure a bunch of this out myself... so I thought I should share my findings with the community.
If you order one of these from China, you will find that it does not have the Google apps and utilities on it. So to get them on, first you will have to root it.
The first method I tried was via the recovery mode, which I determined you access by holding volume up + power until it reboots into it. However, you will find unfortunately that the recovery mode on this device is locked and it will only flash signed updates, so that method is out.
I tried a bunch more methods and exploits until I finally found one that worked - that was this Root_with_restore method on XDA. Follow the instructions in this thread and you will have rooted your device.
Now that my device was rooted, the next problem was how to install the Google apps. I downloaded the latest ICS apps from goo.im - but remember, you can not flash these. I tried installing ROM manager from the market and using that to flash CWM recovery, but that didn't work. What DID work, and what I ended up doing, was simply unzipping the gapps.zip onto my MIcro SD card, then (as root on the phone), copying the entire contents of the "system" folder from that SD card over the /system directory on the phone. After I did this, and rebooted, I now had all of the Google apps working!
I was able to add my account and install all needed apps from the market to make this phone really shine.
My next goal is to figure out how to get CWM working on this phone. I am doing a bunch of reading on the topic and might have something to report later this week.

Hi Guys,
Can anyone please point me in the right direction on steps to root and install the Google applications (Play Store, Google Contact Sync, etc.) on my Huawei U9510e (Ascend D1 Quad XL)?
I just had a family friend bring me one over from China today and obviously it didn't come with any of the Google applications. I was able to find the Gmail apk online along with the GoogleLoginService and the GoogleServicesFramework apk. Everything installed fine, but I am still unable to sync contacts over from Gmail, and occasionally I will get an error saying that GoogleServicesFramework has crashed.
Any insight pointing me to the right direction is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hey brunes, amazing work, I've also found a easier way to root it and flash on google applications with simple UI for newbies like me, I will update my original post to put that in, and put yours in too if you don't mind?
And for sure, I think as soon as this phone receives a global launch it will be pretty popular too, seeing how it's probably the only quadcore pentaband umts phone available on the market right now

No problem, I'll do the translation and post it up by tonight
But just remember that it's still built on a beta rom release from EMUI so it may be unstable, even though I haven't experienced anything (ie. the phone auto restarting), I can't guarantee for you guys :S
Amazing phone for the price
I just got mine 2 hours ago. My friends are all HTC fanboy so they told me to stay away from Huawei but I was just thinking to try it out and then return it but I think i am gonna keep it and sell my GNex. It is quite an amazing pone for such a little price. although the phone might look bit thick but the thickest part of GNex is actually slightly thicker than the D1. I just wish there are more dev support.
I find the camera app that came with it really annoying since you cant turn the sound off... also if it had 2Gb of ram this would be the perfect phone for me!
Anyways anyone else have any news on update to 4.1.2? Or is there other site/ forum with more support?

Beta is fine. Flashed my previous Samsung Captivate numerous times (various Cyanogenmod releases), until settling at SlimBean. Android = always a work in progress.
Regarding the D1, anyone notice slight choppiness when scrolling through the app drawer and such? I'm using Holo Launcher (which I used on the Captivate).
I find that changing the power saving setting to High Performance seems to have mitigated this somewhat. I suspect it might be a small issue with how the stock governor is handling transitions in CPU speed.

For sure about 2GB ram, and support is coming, supposedly Huawei will fully unlock the bootloader by late next week.
I get all my information from bbs dot anzhi dot com, it's a Chinese forum and that is where I found all of my information from. You'll probably have to wait a while longer for the office update to Jelly Bean from Huawei's EmotionUI, but I will be posting the guide on how to flash into their beta release later tonight.

Haha that's true.
I noticed it when I just open the app drawer, I'm using Holo Launcher HD, and it'll be smooth out after opening it for a second or so. I haven't noticed this problem when I was using the ADW or stock Launcher though, so the probably poor ram management from Holo.

Testing Apex Launcher (my go-to launcher before) now. Seems smoother!
I Tested with NOVA launcher PRIME and I say the transition is pretty fast but not smooth. (tested it on performance mode) But i gotta say the 3D unlock screen works perfectly smooth. Do you guys think it might be the problem with 4.0.4 ICS and not the device? My GNex runs on 4.1.2 + some performance tweak and it looks fine.

I had a feeling that it was because of the HOLO launcher too bad because HOLO launcher gives the most "Stock" feeling

Double post, need to accumulate a couple more posts so I can start posting links, but I have started to draft the instructions
I'm not sure, because the 3D Home was laggy to me compared to the 2D Home, and I didn't try NOVA, so I couldn't comment, but isn't it similar to APEX and ADW? If it is, then it should be pretty snappy :S
Edit: Tutorial is up!
Indeed it is snappy but not as buttery smooth as 4.1 I feel.
Here is a good review androidauthority
Thanks for your tutorial!
Hey I'm just wondering if anyone got a case for this phone and can you please give a short review of it. I m looking for a case that replace the back cover but wraps around to the front. I had a case like that for my atrix 4G back. I just don't want to make it any chunkier. But if you think it feels fine then I might consider putting on a case. Thanks

I'm using this case right now. I love the feeling of the back, it's really similar to the original backing of the phone's battery cover, and it's not too bulky. I'll get a couple of pictures of it tonight so you can get a sense how much wider it is compared to holding the phone without a case
Newbie Hiere
Hi Sir/s,
I recently bought a Huawei U9510e phone from China and i came upon your posts re the "rooting".
I already rooted my phone (thanks a lot to you!), but now my problem is how to install the google play.
I saw one update from Huawei but it is in ZIP file. Here are my questions:
1. How will i install the update to my phone? Do i need to download it from a PC first then install it in the phone or do i need to download in directly to the phone?
2. How to deal with those ZIP files and where to save them to make them work? For example, the attachment "huawei_usb.zip". I downloaded it but i didn't know whats next after that. How can i integrate it in my phone? Or if its a driver, how can i integrate it with my PC?
Kindly help by providing step by step procedures re my question since im still new at these things.
I apologize for the stupid questions but i don't really have any idea about those. Hope you can help me.
Thanks,
Androidneophyte
So here's my "problem", today i got a brand new SGSII and i'll wait 1 week and keep it fully stock to check if he doens't brings any hardware problem, then I wanted to flash again Spains official JB. But I got 2 questions:
1) Is it worth to wait for the Portuguese version of Official JB? Like, will they fix anything? Or it will be the exact same ROM?
2) If they don't change anything, what are the differences between using the Portuguese ROM or the Spanish one?
2.1) Updating by Kies is better then though Odin ? If it is, in which way?
Thanks, if you can include as much of information I would be much apreciated, since this is my 4th SGSII and i'm tired of having to trade it
EDIT: Bonus question: How long they usually take to release it to Portugal?(Europe). 5 days passed and only 2 countries got the update. How was it with ICS?
1. I have a SII, I Live in India but i Really Dont Know Which Country's firmware is working on it... ( forgot)
2. There's just Minor Differences
3. Use odin (Clean and Fresh)

What do the guys at the store say when you go to them wanting another device?
"That's weird, we haven't had any complains regarding that device"?
You keep getting faulty devices and you just go out there and say "it's not working as It should"?
Email Samsung and ask them rather than creating another useless topic.

Great.. Hope the update come for consumer cellular version
I was stunned when I opened the email a few minutes ago. Not forgotten after all.
The HAM2 is already the best phone I've ever owned, but to have the company decide to actually push out the latest Android version is amazing!

Well this seems promising but I think a more important question would be when will Huawei start supporting unlocking the bootloader without the hassles of sending emails for the US version?
Thank you, and I wish you well with the beta program, but count me out. THANKS to those that will take the beta challenge, but I will wait for the final release.
Even after release, I'll wait a week or two, to see how it goes. If it appears stable, then I might have a go.
Why the hesitation? Because Huawei did such a great job of tweaking 4.3 to the specs of the mate2, that I have experienced ZERO issues! I can run for weeks without any lock ups, and only reboot it because I feel guilty that I haven't had to do anything to it. I see so many of my friends having this trouble or that trouble with their flagships, with the "latest & greatest" specs, that I just have to snicker that I spent 1/2 of what they did, and I get as much or more bang for the buck than they did.
4.3, on this device is so stable it begs the question for me and my use pattern. If it ain't broke, why fix it? Yes, at some point, there will be an app that I want to use, that will require LL, but, the 83 apps that I have on my device now, run perfectly. I even went so far, to install a few of the same apps on my device, as a coworker did on his Nexus 6, setting the screen brightness to the same levels, then, running the apps side by side. MAYBE there was a split second of difference in opening or running the apps, but, both were smooth, clear and easy to read. Yes, if you ran a benchmark, the N6 would blow the Mate2 out of the water, but, I'm talking about "real world" applications. Is that split second difference worth paying more than 2 times the price? Not for me.
Huawai, you hit one out of the park, and the LL update will be welcome, but, for now, I'm sticking with JB4.3, until the LL update proves to be as stable as JB4.3
You've been posting the same exact crap in all possible threads regarding the lollipop update for the HAM2. While everyone else has been pressuring Huawei to release this update, as is deserved and expected from such a major company,you just go on and on about how happy you are with the current build, and don't care about any future support. truly unbelievable , we are all excited discussing a future update here, you should really go and post in the Happy owners HAM2 Jellybean thread !!

Actually, we all know his stance regarding upgrading his phone. He has at least a post in every thread concerning the HAM2 update that anyone frequenting this board has involuntarily become aware of. I see no reason why he should be constantly reminding us of it except obviously intending to troll!

Consumer cellular is not going to be updated. You will have to flash yours to a non CC mate 2 if you want the update.

Correct, there are quite a few bugs I'm experiencing. Wi-fi not connecting except after 3-4 tries, a few random app crashes and a few but annoying random reboots. Even if it wasn't for these problems, who wouldn't want the latest and greatest Android version on their phones? It's common sense !

I put this list of bugs in an earlier thread (I apologize for repeating):
- Audio cutting out is a pretty common one. This occurred when I first got the phone, then again after a factory reset. Eventually it just stopped happening both times.
- Google Calendar reminder pops up, calendar crashes over and over again until I dismiss the reminder.
- Reboots randomly about once a week.
- Switching from portrait to landscape is slow and inconsistent at best.
- That looping reboot that occurred during a random Amazon update a few months back (that did not affect any other phone). I had to do a factory reset because of that which is a major pain.
- The bugs with Emo (strange text wrapping, delay when closing an app that's in a folder, improperly sized widgets), which is such a hot mess of an Android skin, makes it practically mandatory that you put a new launcher on it.
-Pulling down the notification bar has become an adventure. Sometimes it's fine, other times it comes down and stops halfway and I have to hit the home button an try again.
- Unless it's super bright out, really long shutter lag after the update.
I know the thread was started by a Huawei rep, so hopefully they're working on fixing these bugs along with the update.
Just curious, has anyone having bug issues installed TWRP recovery? I have my HAM2 for 3 months, I am rooted but stock recovery, and I haven't had a single issue with this phone. No lagging, no reboots, no wifi or bluetooth issues. I am wondering if there is something else causing the bugs. Or maybe there are a few bad devices. That being said, I always welcome updates, but I also understand peoples concerns with a new update.

Having the issues I have mentioned above, I am completely stock, never rooted or installed recovery. So phone is untouched. I didn't want to mess with it because I thought it may cause issues receiving future OTA updates

Yeah, the Amazon app problem was really a pain. I ended up uninstalling the app entirely, being fed up with the reboots it was causing. The only thing I have never tried with the phone is a factory reset, wonder if that may help in any way
