Hello!
I am a young man from China, one of Huawei U8800(Ideos X5) users. I think there are a lot of people using the phone around the world. I have the confidence because U8800 has such a high Performance-price ratio. Many of us are using ROM by CM7, or other modified ROM, including MIUI by Stockwell or Mengluole (China) which is also based on CM7.
Now CM is collecting data from the phone using their ROM. CM will make ROMs (CM9) based on Android4.0,ICS for the phones used by the majority. Our U8800 now ranks about 90th (Here is the link: http://stats.cyanogenmod.com/). We need to work together to let CM know our U8800 and pay attention to it.
How to support U8800? you just need simply flash the CM7 rom by Genokolar,which contains the cmstats.apk(help CM7 team know the user of one device),after you flash the rom ,it will inform you that it is going to get the anonymous device data,just do as it says.
Every U8800 user, let's fight together!and please inform the user you know who owns u8800,vote for our CM9!Now u8800 only have 700+ votes.
Yeah, im going to flash it when i get my phone.
I SUPPORT YOU!U8800 need CM9!
i'm a haiwei u8800 user in china.i haven flashed the CM7 rom by Genokolar,i haven send my data. but many user who flash the rom for u8800 haven send their data to haiwei vision. because the rom they flashed always be changed the device version from u8800 to vision for the fluent game experience！！
however, the vision haven't begin to sell, so the data about the vision are from U8800 user! !
please,we need your help,our u8800 cm9 waiting for you,action!

Having taken the plunge for my first android phone namely the SE X10 on a standard rom and already rooted it, I'm just wondering if any of you would like to give me some tips on what to do next with this phone having being a wm 6.1 user for many years I'm at a bit of a loss with this one I've never used linux or any of the derivatives of that software which I'm lead to believe android is based, so pretty much clueless with this one kind regards Mcpaddy.
Sorry forgot to mention it has android 2.1 update 1 installed on it and its the X10I regards Mcpaddy.

Basically you need to decide whether you want to go with a totally custom ROM, or modify the SE 2.1 ROM.
If you go total custom there are some guides to do it as telmoabff linked above.
I chose to just mod the 2.1 SE ROM and there are many different options you can go with, also many guides which will help you out.
You can get some very good customization / performance out of the 2.1 SE ROM...however, to get the absolute best performance / totally custom you will have to go with one of the user developed ROMs.
(Since I am kind-of new to this as well someone please correct me if I am wrong.)
I would root, install xrecovery and then z's freex10 b4 froyo rom as its the simplest and most stable rom i have tried. Once you have it running good then make a backup and try out any of the roms that float your boat, you can always just restore back to z's rom if things go wrong. Very hard to break the x10 have put mine in bootloop bout 6 times trying out the cool stuff on here but always been able to fix it!
Just my opinion tho

FreeX10 is the base for which all of the X10 Froyo ROMs are built, if you want something that has more tweaks and features Wolfbreak's CyanogenMod 6.1.3 ROM is a good one with a lot of support and features. Id go custom if I were you mainly because of the fact that 2.1 doesnt support Flash or app2sd which are 2 features that really make android great.

If I (or anyone for that matter!) help you, dont be afraid to press THANKS!
Or you can use freex10 and simply flash cyanogen settings via xrecovery
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
If you want to stick with stock you should sysctl and jit along with few build.prop mods. Just search the forums. I would recommend the Z's freex10 rom for speed and stability. Tripmiui rom for something different.

Sorry all was expecting an email to tell me if anyone had replied to my post I apologise for seeming ignorant thank you all for your suggestions
Thanked the oguzhan mobile first.
I am come from China.
There are many Huawei U8800(ideos x5) users,Many of us test this ROM.
But this ROM seems that It does not work.
You can use recovery take it in the phone,But either how long it will stop working, then reboot.
Do you have?
Don't know what you are trying to say or ask?
Edit: you need to have cwm 5.0.2.7 from geno, to get it work and of course .35 kernel.

Hey!
This is my first post here. I'm kinda new to this ( started 2 days ago ), when I came across Oxygen ROM for u8800 and gave it a try.
Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1149150
I have CWM v5.5.0.4 and installed a .zip from sdcard, the latest one... I also wiped data, cache partition and dalvik cache, but when I rebooted the phone, it just stayed on Huawei screen ( a red flower with HUAWEI written under it ) and kept rebooting on like 5 minutes... I restored the previous rom using CWM and tried again with no success...
Can somebody help me with this? Is this happening because the ROM is not being maintained anymore, or is there any other problem? I also installed AURORA ICS 4.0.3 successfully with the same method I used with OXYGEN
I would be grateful for any help
Best Regards, Erik
if you have the official gingerbread update from huawei installed, oxygen wont work. It uses an older kernel which is based on the froyo default rom.

So does that mean: If i have upgraded my u8800 tp 2.3.5 Oxygen wont work :/
P.s.: Can you recommend any roms for my Huawei u8800 for daily use, because i'm a bit bored of the Huawei Launcher...

if you really want to use oxygen you can downgrade and re root your device/install a froyo compatible recovery and use oxygen: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1369296
that has the down grade instructions
and here is a link to the recovery to install any froyo kernel based rom:http://dl.xda-developers.com/attach...159a3/7/8/7/4/1/2/recovery5.0.2.7_en_sys1.zip
i would personally recommend ICS Aurora for daily use its made by dzo who made oxygen port and it gets an update multiple times a week even though its perfectly stable at the moment it just keeps getting better but oxygen is a 100% stable and clean rom thats been around for a while now if thats what you are looking for

If it is just the launcher, just change it for one on the market. I am not sure how much difference there will be between official gingerbread and oxygen gingerbread. Try Aurora as suggested above or sbasil miui.us for something really different.
im on oxygen for about 6 months (is oxygen that "old" already?), and am very satisfied with it..
plan to change to aurora soon as these 2 roms are both from dzo, who is a "legend" as referred from xda's editors..
anyway i would recommend any rom from dzo as it seems that his main focus is on rom stability and cleanliness, which is what matters to daily users imho..
Which ROM is better？thank u!

I'd go with Aurora now, while both are in full development, Aurora has made some more progress since it's been out longer, I'd wait for the MIUI V4 project to be improved for the U8800, it's still in the RC phase.
I agree with Lollipopjob.
Aurora has gotten really smooth and reliable. It might not be the most "flashy" rom out of the box, but as off today I'm pretty sure you will have a better overall experience with Aurora.
Myself is a big Miui fan, but I am going to wait untill it gets out of the early "test stages" and (hopefully) becomes an awesome, reliable system aswell.
I'm not saying Miui 4 is unstable, as I haven't tried it myself, but I relie on my phone working on a everyday basis and aim for the more tested releases
Good luck!

Tried Geno's MIUI V4 (in general forum) and it's great. No issues for now. Changed to MIUI V4 now from Aurora (and I was on Aurora from the first release).

Thank you!Aurora is my choice.its nice good!

A small update.
I decided to try the Miui 4 ICS rom, and i had loads of issues from the start.
Laggy/choppy animations and applications, frequent force-closes and networks disconnecting.
As of Aurora is definetly a better choice for day-to-day usage if you ask me.
Just wanted to share my experience

Latest Aurora (2.07 test) is based on Android 4.0.4 and is excellent

Yes its true...
I believe the MIUI is not as stable as Aurora yet. Aside from that it's all up to personal preference. The MIUI interface is very different from other android roms/launchers though.
Slightly offtopic but when I tried MIUI I spent about 10 minutes looking for the app drawer. Google straightened me out on that one.
That was quite a mindset-shift from any other android interface I have used before. MIUI looks beautiful though.
I agree that MIUI has a much better layout and setup than any other rom, but if i decided to use Miui on my phone as of today I would go for the miui.us gingerbread(?) rom.
It's super stable and smooth, but no ICS obviously.

ICS lags, it isn't stable.
And my question:
I have this now "[ROM] Aurora ICS 4.0.4", can I install this "Miui 2.4.13 V3 [2.6.35]" over it or should I install official gingerbread rom first?

Sorry the way I speak, not in any way want to be rude, but I can not understand why people do not read until the end before asking questions ...
Anyway, here's the answer drawn in the first topic of this ROM:
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Requirements:
1. 2.6.35 based ROM installed [either official or .35 based custom ROM, 518 works fine and you won't lose the pink screen]
2. CWM 5.5.0.4
3. If you are planning to use English UI only, install the US version. There are no magical differences between the ROMS, other than the obvious.
Installation:[ [this ROM is for U8800 only, NOT U8800 PRO or -51]
-> boot to CWM -> factory reset* -> wipe cache partion & wipe dalvik cache -> format system directory* -> install the ROM from sdcard
*you can skip the factory reset if you’re updating from Miui .35 (saves you time
from re-installing all programs etc.), formatting system directory may not be
necessary either, but…if you run into trouble, I suggest you to start from a
clean sheet and do these things as well.
Yes, I read that but not sure can I do it, also tried to find information. So I take a risk and try and it works perfect, which means my question was necessary.
But thanks for your efforts.

I think you need information, but if the developer himself says that the rom is so ... he certainly did not want us to make mistakes ... : p
Glad you're enjoying the rom is the best we have here for our device p! : D
Hey guys recently died almost waiting for the Ics to come to my version of note. But then learned that I can change the region coffee and download the ics update. So I did and now running ics 4.0.3
Now I want to use a nifty ROM. However the thing is I read that there is a new bricking bug. I'm not quite sure what its affected or what to avoid.
I was looking at king Droid v2 but anyone got any suggestion about ROM to use the fullest capabilities and the s pen functions.
Also anyone could give me a guide to what to do to install the ROM from the ics 4.0.3
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
Every custom ROM user will give you a different view as to which is the best one to choose.
You have two basic options - a Samsung based rom (with Touchwiz) or an AOSP based rom (based on standard ICS).
Be careful about the bricking bug. If you are rooted (which you will have to be) on a Samsung based ICS kernel, do not do any wipes, formats or flashes (unless it is one of the 'safe' modified kernels). You must always flash a gingerbread kernel (abyss 4.2 red is the current one of choice) before flashing ics.
If that doesn't mean anything to you, you really need to do quite a lot of reading of the stickies so you can learn the detailed procedures but, more importantly, can learn the risks so you know how to avoid them.
