After an OTA update on my 2 day old tablet it gets stuck on the splash screen. Everything was stock. Update looked like it installed correctly and everything. I tried flashing the stock package provided on this website but in the top left corner in red letters it says "recovery verified failed"
I extracted the files. put the update.zip in the root of my sd card.
I don't know what version my tablet had on it as i didnt even have it long enough to play with it.
Any ideas before I have to send it back and wait for weeks on a replacement?
Itncould be a defective tablet.
You could try a reset with the reset hole on side next to USB port.might revert it back. Or d/load a full rom put on formatted SD cardnand try to flash holding volume down and power until flash starts
Lots more info about this in dev area.
Goodluck.
I tried the reset button but its still stuck on the screen when it reboots. I tried that flash method with a full Rom and that's when I got the red error message.
Thanks for the quick reply.

I got a same problem ...
My a500 gets stuck
Hello Guys from XDA:
THis is my first post here. First of all: Thank you stockwell, dzo and franco for the great job here of developing!!
My english is not the best one (I'm from germany) but I hope you can understand my problem.
My mobile phone is an Huawei Ideos x5 u8800.
I've seen the [2011-10-31]U8800Pro Android v2.3.5[Official ROM][UPDATE Screenshot] and thought "Cool- Gingerbread...." and I've flashed it.
I've done backups (from Clockworkmod and Titanium Backup and the "image" folder from the partition with the boot.img and recovery.img files in it).
The flashing process finished...wonderfull... and then I've seen it: U8800Pro. Damned.
Now after round about 5 hours I can't reanimate the phone to work When I start it I see the white HUAWEI Logo...and thats it.
So I want to flash the old stock rom "STOCK ROM B138SP04CUSTESTC205D001EsthoniaElisa" - but this failed! I've put the dload folder with the two update files in in onto the sd card. When I start the bootloader (normally the pink screen) the normal firmware update start.
After Step 1/2 the phone says "Update failed". The whole time the LED is blinking red and after "update failed" very fast! I've never seen this before!.
Then I've used the first "OVER_SEAS_GENERAL_VERSION" - the same problem.
BUT I could flash the "U8800Pro Android v2.3.5" from the link a second time (without the red LED)!
A normal start ends up whith a freezing white huawei LOGO or some rebootings with a little vibration and a black screen at startup.
Short sentences:
Flashed the U8800Pro Android v2.3.5 - phone only goes to the white huawei screen at start after finished update process.
Flashing back to B138 or the general version (i think this was B135?) failed with fast blinking red LED light and "updated failed" after unpacking (1/2).
I see the partition where the "image" folder was when I connect the phone to my PC (with an empty dload folder on SDCard).
So now I have no idea what to do and I hope that someone here in this great forum could help me.
Thanks a lot!

Do you have CWM?
If you can, try to format system, cache and data from CWM. (You can found in Mount... menu)
Then try to reinstall B138.
i think u could try the following:
(1) boot into bootloader mode (pink screen): "power" + "volume up" + "volumn down"
(2) connect phone to pc, copy the backed-up image folder back to the phone (with an "image" folder in root and backed up files under "image" folder.. should be 4 files: amss.mbn, boot.img, EMMCBOOT.mbn & recovery.img)
(3) remove battery to power off and reinsert battery
(4) flash B138 as usual
if this succeeds, then u have ur U8800 back..
I don't think your phone is bricked.
During the installation of the Stock Roms the recovery.img and boot.img files get replaced/modified and that's why your phone gets stuck at the Huawei logo.
Try the following:
Boot the phone in Bootloader (pink screen) by holding Vol+, Vol- and Power, format the partition with FAT32, create a folder called "image" and copy the following files on there.
EMMCBOOT - http://www.mediafire.com/?lb6ifvgk72iru4a
AMSS.MBN - http://www.mediafire.com/?d6r45q6p5gew59v
Recovery.img - http://www.mediafire.com/?57njygc8oianjac
Boot.img - http://www.mediafire.com/?6d5i0714a7o9z97
Once the files are copied, just disconnect the USB cable and remove the battery. Then boot into Recovery by pressing the Vol+ and Power. If you manage to get into CWM Recovery, then it's all good, you can install a custom Rom like Oxygen (
https://sourceforge.net/projects/u8800oxygen/files/ ) by selecting "install zip from SD Card" option.
You'll probably have to use the MOUNT functions within the Recovery to transfer the Oxygen.zip file to your root folder of the SD Card.
Me too did the same thing .... tried both iamelton and katu2006 method but no go.......

No problem, I live in a small town in Lower Saxony / Germany.
Download the U8800Pro F rom that was uploaded the same date as the Gingerbread ROM. THis is the downgrade to Froyo rom. Comes in 4 parts so do each part one after the other. http://www.huaweidevice.com/cn/downloadCenter.do?method=toDownloadFile&flay=software&softid=NDA3MzI=
then try to flash an original U8800 ROM. No promise this will work.

I'll try theese files...
BUt I tried to go into the recovery mode and had no chance at all.
I'll test this...
Maybe the phone will update after the "real" 2.3.3 version is out for us?
Orat this procedure.
in the dload method is an integrated Battery check? Because I've never seen a red led flushing Maybe there is the problem that the updated failed because the akku is not insertet or too low ( I think the akku is not charging anymore- the mobile won't become warm.
Edit: After formatting and loading the 4 files into the image folder: I can't reach the recovery Menü. The phone starts with the white Huawei Logo and after ~5 seconds it vibrates, go black..and is restarting...
I flashed the U8800Pro update to my regular U8800 last night. I just wanted to see what would happen and yep the phone ended up a little broken. But after some time I did manage to fix it.. sort of.
As above, flash the U8800+ F ROM to the phone. This will downgrade things and you'll find that you can then use recovery. I did also have another problem that the /data partition was oddly missing from the device so I had to recreate it <DANGEROUS> using Minitool Partition Wizard (with phone on pink bootloader screen). Also I had to make the FAT32 partition for internal SD as well.
The result is that my phone is 95% fully working. The Huawei/IDEOS logo is now missing and replaced with a green background with a red and blue rectangles and load_oemlogo is unable to reprogram this. Custom ROMs work absolutely fine but all U8800 original ROMs fail to install. Also graphics are missing when installing original roms - only the pink progress bar is showing.
So yeah... DON'T FLASH THE U8800+ ROM TO YOUR REGULAR U8800.
I knew it wouldn't work. I'm crazy enough to try it so I could see if it can be reversed.

i have tried to put boot.img into to folder(235 mb) witch shows when i connect my phone to my computer. have also tried to copy the kerneø and boot files to a micro sd card but that doesn't work either.
don't copying boot n image fike to sd card,you should make pink screen condition of your x5.
just shut down your x5 then press vol up + vol down + power button in the same time,wait untill x5 screen change to pink,than you can copy image n boot file there.
finished copying, release your batery than turn on x5 normaly,it work in my x5.
hope this can help...

Hello guys...
I tried to make circle battery mod to my X5 in b522 official rom and my phone was bricked. When I want to switch on my phone, I got a blue screen. If I connected to the computer that do not appear files on the pink screen as you know.
As I said in the title, is it possible to get access pink screen files in b522 official rom?

Like as being said in the forum, in the 2.3.5 official we stop have access to \image folder in the pink screen.
You got a blue screen because you may have the boot.img file corrupted, can you access the recovery? do you have some backup?
Regards!
As the title says, i formatted everything (boot, image etc) and my Phone Huawei U8800 Pro goes in blue screen or Purple Screen when i try to enter the recovery menu. I used to have CWM Recovery 5.0.2.7 and used as stock Rom Gingerbread B512. Can you help me, guide me to bring back in life my phone. Thanks in advance for every help.
