Hi all, need to have some help before I try to upgrade my Media pad. Right now I'm on 4.2.2 with EMUI 2.0. I'd love to get on 4.4.2 and EMUI 3.0.
However, when I try to download anything from Huawei's website, it's so slow and fails times out or by the MD5 Checksum. Then I thought I'd just get one of the images here and flash it. However, every ROM I find says I must be on x to use this rom, of which I go looking for x and it says I must be on x to use THAT ROM (etc, etc, etc).
I am leery to start because I cannot even download the original ROM (same fail to download from Huawei's site) in the likelihood that I will muck this up.
Can anyone please provide me the route to getting from 4.2.2 to 4.4.2? Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!!!

Thanks again.

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 ?

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...

The link of rom not work

Thanks alot for this i´ve been looking for some time
Help
I am having some trouble installing this rom. Can I please have some more detailed instruction? I can't get past the "flash recovery recovery.img and press enter" stage. Also I am unsure whether or not I've downloaded the correct fastboot drivers. A direct link to the site to download from would be useful. Thank you very much.
Thank you
Thank you Thank you
Iuni u2 32gb
hello
could you please explain more clearly how to proceed to install the kikat rom? thanks
Need help installing.
Can I get some clearer instructions on how to install the Walton Primo Z rom? The instructions found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/stock-vanila-kitkat-rom-iuni-u2-32gb16gb-t3045629 were pretty confusing to me and i'm not sure if I've installed the correct fastboot drivers. More detailed instruction or even a youtube video would be greatly appreciated.
I have the same issue!
It loses the focus as soon as I try to take the picture.
It works fine when I shoot macros and objects flose to the phone but it completely messes up long distance shots.
There is an android 5.0 ROM, Is this ROM can run in iuni u2? It is ROM of allview x1 mini, allview x1 and iuni u2 32gb just like twins.
Is this ROM really???
Using the system update tool inbuilt with this Walton Primo Z rom
Thanks for sharing this rom. Works like a charm on my iuni u2 32 GB. Just need a small favor, the system update inbuilt app that came with this rom does not allow me to update the OS, it throws out an error saying network anomaly, please check network everytime I try to update.
There is also an option to download the update package and run the update through the same tool. Can some one point me to the latest update for this rom??
Many thanks and keep up the great work. This is rom is way better than the IUNI V 3.0 both is function and stability.
ROM flash noob - IUNI u2
Trying to flash this ROM however when entering the flash recovery recovery.img command I get the message " 'flash' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
Any advice for what I am doing wrong?

User abihakim in another thread mentioned that this soft improves battery life significantly ("With help of Greenify&Amplify battery is superb!") - can users of this ROM confirm that?
Also, did any of you manage to get this ROM work on 32GB version of U2 ?
Iuni u2 rom site
Sorry for posting here but being a new member i cant post somewhere more suitable.
Since many of iuni u2 users are searching for alternative roms for the device, i am posting a site i have found with many options to experiment with.
Just google "romzj iuni u2" and use google translate, i am currently using the latest miui rom posted(15 days ago) with 4.4 gapps, and it works really great, smooth, gps locks quickly, decent battery life. The only downside is the camera quality which is worse than the stock rom's, but i am ok with that.

You can find the latest kitkat miui rom to download here en.miui.com /download-290.html
If you want nearly stock android experience , there is one posted here androidiani.com /forum/tutti-gli-altri-smartphone/472647-rom-per-iuni-u2-fix-fotocamera-e-gps.html#post6954828
I used google translate as i am not italian either, but i know that this rom will keep the 32gb storage and 3gb ram since i've used it. The best think about it is the preloaded google apps , i haven't seen the message: Google play services have stopped(ok the play store crashes once a month). Also it uses hola launcher as default, but i switched to nova prime.

I have got the new smartphone blu energy xl, I want to get root acces, also I would like to install a recovery to change the rom.
I'm considering buying this device but no update news on when it will probably get Marshmallow is a big issue since updates are very important to me.
Anyone have a stock ROM for this device or for the Gionee Marathon M5 Plus (same device)?

Well; its really early so development isn't quite there yet for this model. But there are people working on it. Here is a google+ page for a person who managed to get CWM Philz Touch working and once installed you can just use the zipped SuperSU file to root your device. I had to use sideload but it worked!
https://plus.google.com/102570499717657018520
https://download.chainfire.eu/696/supersu/
The guy who provided the CWM recovery is also working on a CM rom also; hopefully he'll have a stable rom soon.
I Am SO "BLU" right now
I have a BLU Energy XL aka "Beast Companion" and it truly is that. The specs are great and it performs as such. I have been trying for days to just root it properly (because there is no chance of unlocking the bootloader and installing a custom recovery much less anything else) because as another poster said its just too "new" I guess. I LOVE THIS PHONE it was worth every penny.
Now what I have tried is Kingroot, RootGenius and IRoot but all I became was Irate . Not because they did not root the phone, they did.......BUT afterward I was unable to download, install or update any apps on my phone especially from the playstore. My live wallpapers did not function and display and security settings had to be reset upon each reboot. I unrooted and factory reset my phone (I had nothing to lose just yet because I haven't had it very long and did that for this very purpose) and the minute I brought everything back up VOILA!! Right as rain again (which I am quite happy about, no REAL damage)
So I guess what I am saying is, the common denominator is my phone and not necessarily the tools, which I acknowledge. I want to point out also that with KingRoot, I TRIED "SUPER-SU-ME" , left it for dead for like 2 hours and came back and YEP, NOTHING.........so that does not work for this model as far as I know.
Thank you for reading my post and I guess I just have to wait for what this phone needs and I will do so patiently because if you own one then you know what I mean when I say, IT IS TOTALLY WORTH IT and badass in the meantime
Any idea if the ROM is complete? I miss the features of stock/CyanogenMod. Fingerprint and no audio is a deal breaker.
---------- Post added at 04:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:06 AM ----------
Also what's the status of the recovery? I hate that it's upside down and no touch control.
I have bought the oneplus 3T , I recommend to sell this forgotten cell phone, it doesn't have any actualization
I have been looking for the instructions for upgrading my Tab 4 to either Marshmallow or Nougat. I have found so much information it is mind boggling. My problem is , all the links to the files are gone or there are no instructions.
My Samsung Tab 4 (SM-T530NU) is rooted on Android 5.0.2 with TWRP 3.0 for a recovery. Does anyone know where I can find the proper instructions and files to this update? I dont know which would run better on my Tab, Marshmallow or Nougat ?
But I am open to advise and suggestions.
Thank you for your time,
Scotty
I did find a Unofficial Marshmallow 6.0 ROM but every time I try to fash it with TWRP, I get ERROR:7. Anyone ever run across that problem or have a fix for that ?
I too am looking to upgrade my SM-T530NU to Marshmellow...did you get any success?
No, I never got any happiness either. I an in the same boat as you are.
Did you try the rom in this post?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ta...35-updated-t3839260/post78269783#post78269783
No, I did not, sounded like to many problems not worked out at that time. Hope that helps
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.

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!

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..
