Hi
Started program - found SX56. Message "Upgrading - will take about 5 minutes"
on pda. Then it said that it had a problem with the USB or COM connection, and
to fix it in device manager. I opened Device Manager, and checked that all the
USB and COM ports were enabled, which they were.
By this time, the unlock software and ActiveSync had stopped running. The pda
was still stuck on the "Upgrading - will take about 5 minutes" screen. Since
the configuration has changed, ActiveSync will no longer recognize the device,
and will not sync with it. Your software will not connect until ActiveSync does.
All that comes up is the "Upgrading - will take about 5 minutes" screen. there
is no other functionality to the system.Hard or soft resets make no difference.
Active Sync doesn't work. The PDA has changed its configuration, so active
Sync doesn't recognize it. When I plug it in, Active Sync sees something, but
can't even tell that it is a pda, and I can't even set up a new connection with
it. let alone use the old connection.
Can anyone help? is there a way i can reinstall active sync or is there another way to fix it? please help
You will need xdatools, sd card, card reader/writer and rom file from kitchen for sd card flashing. Unzip the rom after download, start xdatools on your pc, choose the unzipped rom file as source and the drive letter for your sd card as destination from drop down menu, once the card is programmed insert sd card to phone, push reset while holding power, when prompted you then push the action key which is centre of 4 way rocker buttons. Once flashed push the unscrewed stylus into hole next to headphone socket, push once only, wait one minute push once more, this will work as long as you dont have a problematic version of bootloader on your phone. Good luck.
System is entirely backed up onto SD card.Can't use SD card. Can't use PDA.
PDA is still stuck on "ugrading - will take about 5 minutes". It apparently has
no operating system in ROM. No difference with hard or soft reset - comes back
to same screen, no function in PDA.
HELP PLEASE
I think you misunderstood, a normal backup is no good, you need to program an sd card with a new rom, when this is placed in your xda and soft reset it should reprogram your phone with a new rom. You are correct when you say it has no rom, the method I described should restore your phone to a working machine. You do not need a rom to reprogram using bootloader/sd card method, try it and see.
You will need xdatools, sd card, card reader/writer and rom file from kitchen for sd card flashing.

Okay, so can I basically use the newest ROM which also unlock the device too?
You will need to use either xda developers special edition rom to unlock or include the unlock program from the kitchen in a 2002 rom, you can then upgrade to wm2003 if you wish, you cannot unlock under wm2003 so you must use special edition or kitchen rom based on 2002 first.
I am sorry if i keep asking you questions.
I do have the xda special rom, ive tryed using it but it caused the problem i do have right now.
i did download xdatools by jeff. i cannot run them though.
Could you describe step by stef of what i need to do.
i.e. do i need a complete NEW ROM, or can i just transfer the xda special rom to my SD card and then run it to restore my device?
But i guess not, else you wouldnt have explained what i need to do.
Thats the error i get when i try to run xdatools. (I dont understand the install note)
"INSTALLATION
From the source + exe distribution copy OsImageTool.exe and itsutils.dll
to the programme A directory as created by unpacking
jeff's-exe (http://cuba.calyx.nl/~jsummers/XDA/) to a directory in
your "Program Files" directory. Then run 'OsImageTool --register'."
IF you unzip the files you already have both of those files in the folder.
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP
You have to install ActiveSync.
You can get it diretcly from Microsoft for free....

. I was able to locate the NK.nbf file. I ran the XDA OS image tool, to put the OS on the sd card, from the NK file. That apparently succeeded, but it is hard to tell. After loading the OS, when I take out the sd card, then put the sd card back into the sd card reader, it can no longer read the sd card. I can format the sd card again, using my camera, so the sd card is not destroyed.
Wher I put the sd card in the SX56, there is no problem, but there is no success.
Pushing soft reset alone does nothing. Pushing the power button alone does not turn the machine on or off, and does nothing.
Pushing power and soft reset at the same time, gets me the “Wallaby Bootloader V5.15” screen. It first says “wait”, and then says “GSM OK”. It then does nothing else, and doesn’t prompt me to do anything else. If I push the action button, I get “DIAGNOSTICS GPRSA 20324e4”. From there, I can scroll up and down, and test the RAM, Display, battery, USB, etc – all items tested seem OK. There is nowhere to go from here – all it does is test the pieces.
After that, if I push the hard reset (the one that disconnects the battery), the power goes off, and the screen is dark. This is the only way to turn the machine off at the moment. If I push hard reset again, it comes up with a screen full of lines, with two blank holes in it (see attached file). From there, none of the buttons do anything, except hard reset (which turns the machine off again), or soft reset + power, which brings up the bootloader screen again.
have the siemens ROM. It will not work with the cradle, because it cannot find the pda if Activesync can’t make a connection, and loading it onto the SD card does nothing new – both results are exactly the same as with what described above.
any suggestions?
My Huawei Ideos u8150 is stuck on the logo. its six month old and not under warranty seal... I don't know what I've done...
now when I was surfing the internet (Obviously with another phone) I got an info says that I can format the SD card and create a new folder named "dloder" then put some files on it. then when I restart the phone pressing the volume down, red button and power button, the phone will update itself and it'll be ok again. now my Qs are:-
1 - does such method work?
2 - if it works then what are the files I should put on the "dloder" folder and where do I get those files?
Thanks in advance...

I tried that now, but it didnt work. The program fails before the lightning and cog shows up.. And just doing the reset wont bring up the lightning and cog at all.
This is what is happening:
1. Retry on the computer and Volume down + Power on Lumia
2. Nokia symbol in the middle of the screen on Lumia (The ATT logo shows up in the US at this stage I presume)
3. Vibration on the Lumia, I switch to volume up.
4. The program fails and shows the popup with Retry button BEFORE the lightning and cog symbol on Lumia
5. lightning and cog symbol on Lumia but it is to late.
What am I doing wrong?
I have a swedish black Lumia 920 and I am using the swedish rm-821.
Thank you for trying to help!

switch to a different USB port. I had the same problem with my hp notebook where there were usb 3.0 and usb 2.0 ports. Funny thing was that I tried the USB 2.0 port first and it did not work, when I tried the USB 3.0 port, the software detected the phone and flashed it straight away.. Your luck may vary so I suggest trying all the USB ports until it works Good luck

Can you help me because I already busy two days and it still can not.
Sorry for my bad english I'm dutch.
Greetings Robin
Van anybody help me

Robje007 you only get the pink screen if their is no update found below is how to use force update
Upgrade instructions
1. Unzip the downloaded file
2. Place the Update.app inside a folder named "dload" on your SD card root directory
3. Power off and turn on your Ascend Y300 holding volume down + volume up + power button
This was taken from Huawei upgrade guide
Force upgrade
Step 1. A MICRO SD card of 2G or more should be available. The MICRO SD card
made by Sandisk, Kingstone, or Kingmax is recommended.
Step 2. Format the MICRO SD card (This operation is optional).
Step 3. Copy the Software: main package to a directory named dload.
Step 4. Copy the entire dload folder (with UPDATE.APP in it) to the root directory of
the MICRO SD card.
Step 5. Make sure your handset is power off. Insert the MICRO SD card into the
handset. Press the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN key, and then press the
POWER key to power on the phone and enter the Software Upgrade Mode.
Step 6. When the progress bar stop, the phone will restart, if not , you need to
remove the battery manually.
Step 7. Copy the Software:vendor package to a directory named dload. Then
Execute Step 4 – Step6 repeatedly.
If want to install a custom or repack Rom for the phone Then
Press vol up + power to boot into recovery and install the Rom from their. (Keep pressing the buttons until the phone boots into recovery)
If you want to boot into sideloader and use adb to push a Rom then
Press vol down + power if the Hauwei logo stays on the screen then you are in sideloader mode keep pressing the keys for at least 10 to 15 seconds.
Hope this is of help to you
i want to know what alternative volume button flex strips can i use for my huawei y300-0100 as mines damage and its not available in my country
This tread is referring to a S7-721u version in Malaysia with Gr8 bundled pre-installed.
Unfortunately, I lost my Gr8 activation code and unable to login to the device anymore after a factory reset. After some research, I have managed to flash it with the original firmware. Yes, I lost me Gr8 code, so I don't have the access to the daily subscription anymore, but I got my Huawei Mediapad back without unwanted pre-installed apps.
I am sharing this guideline so that it would be easier for people who faced the same issue like me. For people already got your Huawei Mediapad, keep your Gr8 code safe and remember where you keep it.
Prepare an microSD card with any storage size larger than 1GB.
Format microSD card.
Download Huawei official release firmware (S7-721u, Android4.3, C232B008, General).
Unzip downloaded firmware.
Delete file “au_temp.cfg” in dload folder.
Copy dload folder with UPDATA.APP in it.
Paste dload folder in your microSD card.
Power Off Huawei Mediapad. Insert microSD card.
Press Power + volume up + volume down keys together. The phone automatically enters the upgrade mode, and then begin the upgrade. Release the keys.
Once the progress bar reaches 100%, the phone will automatically restart. DONE!
What is new version C232B008 or C264B001? My tablet is on C264B001.

How important is it to delete that file. Is that the reason why when i install the update it says "update.app is a invalid package"? Thanks mate.
Hi. I just reinstall the software, but how do I get back my e papers subscriptions?
Is there any costum rom, and i have this tablet locked on one network ,is there a solution to run other network.thanks in advance.
I did all as you said, but now my tablet is completely dead.
Thanks it worked.
Provide the download link for the firmware please?
Thx Sunnysardine, it works for me.
Just to add a bit for my experience.
The process 1 - 8 MUST be followed exactly. I tried putting the update.app w/o the load folder, it did not work
For process 10, it takes a bit of time. the Huawei logo showed up for quite long before it power up to 1st screen. after that, all well. So got to be patient a little bit
Thanks man
I followed ur instructions exactly and it works, nice
If not for this, I would have thrown away my mediapad, it totally not login-able/ unusable without Gr8 code
Thanks again!
it is work for me.. thanks for sharing
Hi there, I found a way to remove GR8 app without installing the update. I found out that due to the device cannot detect the update in my sd card.
1) turn on the Huawei media pad s7-721u, unlock the screen
2) plug in to computer/laptop windows 7,8 or windows 10
3) on the Huawei media pad screen, it will pop up usb setting, select hiSuite usb type option
4) at the andoid setting, please go to about table setting, then enable developer mode by taping 7 times at Build number
5) still at android setting, go to security, make sure your android Screen lock setting is set under Huawei unlock,the go to shortcut setting, need to set to google app and android setting app.
6) install HiSuite to your computer - this is the Huawei official computer device managed software tool
7) install iRoot software to your computer. careful with this installation, it full of bloatware, but don't worry it don't have a virus.
8) run the iRoot and it will root your device. It will restart your Huawei pad multiple times.
9) after it root complete, unlock your device then go to google play ( as your android unlock setting option have the google play as describe in step 5)
10) install System app remover from google play
11) open the app, go to inside the app setting, remove setting Hide core system app
12) go to the main menu of the app remover, under manager, select system app, now you can find gr8 gallery app. Removed that app then restart the device.
13) you will have multiple error in android, just reboot and the error gone. DONE
This is where you can download the firmware
