English official gingerbread rom (U8800 Pro) - Huawei Ideos X5 U8800

Anyone know where I can find the official english gingerbread rom for U8800 Pro?
I've found a link to the official site here but it comes up with "page not found" when you hit the download button. I have also found a chinese version but I would rather get the english one.
And btw, does anyone know why it was taken down by Huawei in the 1st place?

The official gingerbread rom comes with English. You need to change it manually. There are steps in the guide.

Thanks for the answer.
And yeah I know it does but I also know there was an "overseas" version. Dont really know what the differences were but I thought there must be a reason a different version existed.
Will gladly use the chinese one if you guys say its the same functionality

For Changing your rom it seems u are a complete noob.. so for ur info.. you can only flash roms for buzz on ur buzz u should not flash roms from other devices till u become an expert and want to experiment..these are like updates or firmware upgrades...Custom roms which are not yet here..are roms to satisfy various personal tastes in a device..

Is this a generic, worldwide version of 1.14? (ie. useful for rooting)

Can you define 'safe'? If it means keeping your ability to root, then, if you download 2.34.75.1 from danne_jo's thread, then yes, it is safe.
I also tried installing languages through more locale..what do you think about that?
Please guide me, im a complete newbie and i dont need new rom, just the languages. Is more locale dependable?

From what I have been reading around these forums, yes, morelocale2 is reliable, and, has been recommended to many. (Havent used it personally)

Swype Beta now available for Wildfire.

Today I was able to download and install Swype for my Wildfire.
Previously I would normally get the message that your screen resolution is not supported.
So anyone who have already signed up for Swype beta can install a working official version of swype for Wildfire.

I was very skeptical about it aswell but when I started using it for a while it really gets faster to type and I cant miss it.
I have an older customized version with English and Dutch/French + few other languages that works with the Wildfire perfectly.
Downside the apps is 5 MB because of the languages.
PM me if you want it.

It should be.zip, not tar. You downloaded a kernel, not rom.

[ANSWERS THREAD] Ask any questions here!

Hi everyone, since I am probably one of the last active Gen8 device owners here on the forum and I enjoy helping people setup their Gen8 devices or just answer random questions related to them I decided to make this thread.
So anyone please if you have any questions ask them here as it will be easier for me to see them and (try to) answer them in a timely manner as I will be subscribed to this thread!
Thanks and hope this will make it easier to help the people out there that might still own one of these devices and is in wondering what to do next.

Sorry for the late response, I was in the middle of the exams re-take week so although I saw this I could not answer.
So I will do my best to help you but what do you actually want to do, are you asking how to install a newer android version (2.3.x or 4.0.x) or how to re-install the stock firmware or how to install an alternative OS (debian linux)?
Hello, same problem here , i want to install a new ROM(?) for my Archos101 but i don't know which one i have to choose , and i'm not really good in english , so if you can help me out
I just want a newest and fastest version than my 2.2.1

Well you can get a newer version but it will surely not be faster than 2.2, you could install OpenAOS Degu (android 2.3) or Cyanobiz (android 4.0) depending what version of android you want, I can help out if you tell me which one you want to install.
Also if you want to improve the performance of android 2.2 I would recommend installing one of the root kernels (either the OpenAOS boot menu one or Chulri's kernel) and then use the app called Milstone Overclock (I found it somewhere here on XDA, I can give a link) and set the CPU at 1.2Ghz.
You could also go multiboot using Kboot (which I actually need to re-upload and will do that now) so you can have newer android version(s) and stock working better at the same time. For root I would actually recommend Chulri's kernel instead of the OpenAOS one, it seems to work better.

I do not have that device but I don't even see a 50c Neon on their product range on the .com site, only a 50c Platinum and a 50 Neon, for the 50 Neon there is this MIUI: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/rom-archos-50-neon-t3210324 but otherwise you are out of luck I am afraid.
