You can't do anything to fix it ! You'll need a new LCD ! My buttons stopped working too suddenly ( fortunately my 'Back' button still work and I can multitask it )
All you can do now is editing build.prop and enable 'on screen softkeys' ! Change that "1" with "0" and reboot !

First of all you'll need root of course !
Then using RootExplorer app navigate to system/ and open build.prop with text editor then scroll down until you'll find that line from my picture above and change that "1" with "0" and reboot !

When you need to flash TWRP image into fastboot , better use that TWRP file that I gave you.. ( of course you need to rename it into recovery.img like in that guide to be more simply for you )
That SuperSU...zip need to be flashed with TWRP , but of course you'll need TWRP installed first

Fastboot is an phone 'state' / 'mode'.. like when it's Power Off.. Just read that guide and do what is more easy for you.. just get TWRP on your phone
If you think that's too 'complicated' better don't risk , you might brick your phone if you don't know what you're doing

One more solution to your problem is to use an third-party app Softkeys from Gplay or just use MIUI Quickball

Which rom and kernel are you using and what's the exact problem with USB Transfer?
Sent from the other side... of the screen
It may just be that the usb mass storage app isn't on that rom.
Try a usb mass storage app from play store : Here's one
or it could be a bug in your rom, please be more specific when asking questions like this. if i knew your rom i could tell you.

No no, to flash sony stock firmwares you don't need to unlock your boot loader. You can flash SONY fw directly using flashtools by entering into flasmode ( volume down + USB plug in at the same time)

You can find the flashtool software from the general section, I'm on mob, I can't direct you to the resources at the moment, will do it later,
You could do a little search.
Now before all this I hope you have checked "wcdma/gsm" in network modes in settings,
And tried a factory reset,
And none resolved the problem. Right ?

It's doesn't matter as English is not a problem at all for us.
I do prefer Hebrew and i guess it should be completly fine with "Morelocale2".
In the Root - i should pick "1" ... is it correct?

I have flashed at least 2 different firmware that did not have Hebrew support at all, meaning no Hebrew keyboard and of course morelocale2 can't help much in that situation.
Anyways, if you won't have Hebrew I can try to upload the one I have when I am back home Saturday night.

So i will flash the f.m and with morelocale2 i will have it?

Have you heard about the "Auto Flasher ROM flash utility" ? ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=se.davison.autoflasher )
I could flash the f.m without having a CWM? (that bring's me to "2" --->
2) Can i flash the TWRP recovery (with "Goo Manager") and then i will have a recovery to flash zip's?

Yes the Hebrew support FW,, it is .75 not .54, and it will take some time to upload, it's big.
It support Hebrew keyboard with no need for any addition, if you want full Hebrew interface you need morelocale2.
The only tool I've ever used to flash FW is flashtool, I don't know of any other, other then PC Companion, but it only flash the latest FW from sony at the time you flash.

You can flash whatever FW you like.
You can try to upgrade to JB with PCC and downgrade later with flashtool if you don't like it.

Mine did, not full Hebrew interface, but has Hebrew as writing language, and can be changed to Hebrew interface with morelocale2.
I don't know if this depends on what region you update from or which FW you had before but you should be fine anyway.

Here is the image:
This is what should pick when flashing the updated JellyBean FM?
Regarding the Hebrew in you'r "P" - it was your choice to use w/o the morelocale2? So in case you do install that - you will have full Heb interface, am i right?

If he can't manage to flash CM/GApps/etc with the simple instructions provided/without people holding his hand to the point of even choosing which version to flash for him, he's going to bust his phone at some point in the very near future. Time and again on here we see people like him do this.

Ah, yes. I agree. It´s not easy to learn all you need to know as a complete noob here. What to do, understand the terminology and all.
But in this case doctor_droid did the OP a solid with answers and links. The OP got answers and should be able to take it home from there.
Hi
Haven't been on this forum since yesterday.
CM works fine.
The tutorials here for installing CM are REALLY bad if you haven't flashed before.
I wish I could make them a bit more noob-friendly.
I understood everything, but the tutorials made me unsure.

Extreme battery life?
Can you tell us how that is done and confirm somehow that it´s not placebo plz?
There are so many roms and kernels to choose from, what make this so good with battery?

no its not a placebo effect..
there is only one reason m running cm9 and thats bcoz of the battery life..
we have 4.3 builds bt i still luv cm9 and thats bcoz i dun like to charge much (no i cant afford a 3000mah battery worth 5000INR )
if u dun trust me u can try by urself...
i use cm9.0 stable not 9.1
battery life is thrice better than 10.1

I should have a working cwm pack later tonight. Still can't figure out why the update won't work as it is.
I've also managed to figure out the update servers url so can now check for updates without the phone

Update 19/08/2014
I have started to create a ROM based on B021. It is still in very very early stages of development and any screenshots seen below should be taken with a grain of salt as things may change in the future.
Here are some screenshots of the progress so far:

I want to konw how you did it...
Won't be long until CWM and a Custom rom are available.....
CWM For The P2
Ok, well here's a start CWM for the P2
It's not quite the normal flashable .img that you get with most other devices
This is P2Tools.apk and app that install's CWM on to the /system partition and can be booted to from the app for during boot by pressing VOL- or VOL+ when the RED LED comes on.
This is not a Touch Recovery,
Aroma also suffers the half screen bug of CWM6 when it's being used.
This has been edited so as not to wipe /data/share or /data/cust when performing wipes
The P2 does not use /data/media like most devices but /data/share for the /sdcard
No one going to give feedback on CWM?

Yes it was tested using a P2, as for custom ROMs I've not got round to that yet. For CM of any sort we need to get the boot loader unlocked.

Ah good man. Thanks for your hard work. I've spoke to huawei UK via Facebook and they sent me a link for their boot loader unlock page unfortunately our device wasn't listed. I'm definitely up for helping to get this device ready for custom ROMs. If we can achieve I'm sure it will be much better. I'm really not impressed with stock firmware and miss the freedom I had with galaxy s2. I will try and post the link to the site

Damn. I just emailed them earlier asking for the boot loader unlocked. I've rooted with eroot but its not enough. I just hope someone manages to unlock the boot loader or they eventually release the unlock officially.
Thank you for all the feedback guys thanks for that P2 Tools apk, I managed to reinstall gapps using it ain't got any ROMs to test though lol
Hi can any of you guys pull the system apps for me I need a copy of the browsers.apk and email.apk and few other apps but not sure what ones yet I got a p2 of eBay and most of the system apps have been removed by the seller and I can't get a copy of them so I can't put them back on the phone and the seller won't give me a refund

My weather app and clock just crash as soon as I open them and their icon is missing... any solutions?? Thanks
I've tried the factory reset already but it hasn't done the job the system ui seems to be ****ed pardon my language the back light to the touch panel don't work and the status bar does not work either there's an update for the phone but it won't install as the system apps have been removed and it can't apply the update to the system apks as they ain't installed I've tried to change the update script in the update.zip and every time I change it to bypass the updates for the missing apps it finds another app that is missing I've rang huawei and they won't fix it as the person I got it from of eBay had rooted it and they won't give me the firmware file to put it back to factory settings so I'm stuck lol

no issue bro, i can understand. take good rest so that tomorrow we can fix the phone.

Thanks again for everything.
First of all.. All who had problems with network signal... I see that stympy is already trying to help for other guys on forum, but also I see that all solutions is related only for software.
I'm technician and 2 days ago one of my good friend bring me this device with same issue/problem...
1. I downgrade software from KitKat to JB (no result)
2. Reflash different king of modems (no result)
And then I ask the owner about precondition of the problem... As usual root cause of it was the same as in many similar. So cell phone is simply fall down, and the reason of problem with network signal is fixture of main board where sim cards is installed.
Before you'll do something, just try to PUSH the sim card little bit
