i was on cm 2.2.2 rom and restored back to aurora rom, which i backed up before. but now when i start the phone huawei logo appears and the phone reboots repeatedly. i can't reach recovery either. is the only way of getting the phone to work is booting a dload folder from an external sdcard? my adaptor is broken and i am using it with cable, so i can't reach my sdcard either.
Pull the battery and then when you put it back in, press and hold volume up and power until the recovery menu loads. Otherwise, it sounds like you did not upgrade to official gingerbread before using your backup of aurora. You still need official gingerbread installed first so you may have to install it with the dload folder and then root, install recovery and restore your aurora backup.

Flash the official Huawei 2.3.5. The stock 2.2 kernel is .32 and that is why is the logo in boot loops.
To install the aurora must have a kernel .35 (Stock Huawei) and then flash the aurora. I hope this helps.
Set!

Thanks worked for me. Borrowed an SD from a friend, copied the files using his phone then threw it into mine and flashed official gingerbread. Worked like a charm!

I take no responsibility for any harm that comes to your phone as a result of applying this mod.
unofficial Clockwork Mod Recovery 5.0.2.7 for u8800pro and u8800 [upgrade to offical 2.3 GB]
Installation Instructions (upgrading - root explorer method):
Using any file explorer which is able to remount as writeable (such as root explorer), browse to the /cust_backup directory and remount it as writeable
Navigate to the image directory and backup up the current recovery by renaming it to something like recovery.bak, or _recovery.img
Rename the downloaded recovery to recovery.img and copy to the image directory.
Installation Instructions (new install):
Unplug any usb connection and turn the phone completely off
Whilst holding both the volume + and volume - keys hold the power button to turn the device on. Let go when you see a pink/purple screen.
Attach the usb cable to your computer and wait until a few usb mass storage devices are detected and mounted. Look for one that has just one directory called 'image' in it. Navigate into this directory and you'll see recovery.img etc.
(optional) Rename recovery.img to recovery_backup.img
copy the new recovery.img to image, unmount the mass storage device (safely remove in windows) and then pull the battery out to turn the phone off.
Hold volume + and power to boot to recovery.
Install any custom rom
change：
mod the kernel,Ums is worked now
use zte u880‘s charge png
can install zip from emmc and use emmc backup&restore
add ext4 fs support
about SDcard
if you can't mount SDcard in recovery,do this:
enter "advanced"--"Reboot Recovery"
then you could use the SDcard
ps:this is issue of offical GB,not recovery!

Tested on u8800 and works very good. SD card sometimes can't mout properly, but i guess it's not an issue from CMW.
I've done a official GB backup, restored without a glitch, installed ICS demo without any problem too.
Can I upgrade my u8800 to official beta 2.3.5 and use this CWM to upgrade to cm7 or miui if I won't be able to use ics demo?
Sent from my u8800 using XDA App
Yes.

for me does not work. after several times trying to restore my miui backup (the onlyy one) it gave random errors some times, but after I was able to restore 2 times, I cant pass the miui boot.

Was it a backup you did with this CWM version? Or with the stockwell's CWM? The old backups don't work with this one I believe.
the backup its before this version of course. but even with this new CWM I cant flash new rom. I says error blablabla id u8800pro. I installed this because I wanted to try new ICSrom but now Im stuck to it lol

Have you flashed official GB before installing this recovery? I think you need to do that before this works in the original U8800.
yes I did ! the ICS works but not others.
Hmm, I tried to restore my backup from yesterday done with stockwells 5.0.2.6 recovery and my phone got ****ed up. I know I shouldn't have done this but I just had to try. xD Now I can't get past the Huawei logo, when I push the power the phone starts but just turns off after couple of seconds. I can get to bootloader (pink screen) but not to recovery. I hope no one else has tried this and I hope I get my phone working again.
Would anyone have any advice how to get my phone back up and running? Or should I just go bring it to warranty support?
have you tried to replace the recovery.img from this topic again? that happened to me too when I tried to go back with CWM v4 but then I replaced with this
I've tried restoring CWM backup of 2.2 the phone stopped booting up, had to go into pink screen and restore /image/ folder from 2.3.5. It now boots into 2.2 but is all messy and laggy.
It seems 2.3.5 update modified some ROM stuff that isn't accessible with either pink screen or CWM Recovery?
Clean way perhaps? Are there entire ROMs (img) for this phone?
With 2.3.5 :
You can't install CWM directly from Pink Screen
You can't even reach the pink screen without root
You can't go back 2.2, even you managed that, bootanimation will be from 2.2.2 and oemlogo from 2.3.5
As you can see, Huawei blocked our freedom

Download any oficial rom, take out your micro sd card, copy the dload folder of the oficial update do internal memory and boot your phone while pressing volume up + volume down at the same time till it starts instaling the oficial rom.
Hello. I downgraded from MIUI to the 2.2.2 (dload folder on sd card method)
then i upgraded to official 2.3 using dload on sdcard method.
How to i revert this?
I have tried using the 2.2.2 dload method, then boot into pink screen to install newest recovery, the recovery works and i can restore my old MIUI, BUT it wont boot. just stuck on the new Huawei logo.
and yes i have tried let it boot right after the 2.2.2 dload method is complete but it then enters recovery and some error massaged are displayed, and it wont boot the rom, just recovery..
Any Suggestions?

Why did you upgrade back to 2.3 if you were planning to install .32 Miui? You have to have .32 ROM installed when you install Miui .32, .35 when you install .35 Miui. If I misunderstood and you have .32, try Fixing permissions in CWM.

Currently i have the Official 2.3 because i cant get any other rom to work..
But i want to get back MIUI, my question is How?
I upgraded because i wanted to try the Aurora 4.0 rom, but i gave up as i couldnt get root on the official 2.3 with superoneclick or any other app.
Thanks
btw. How does the U8800 work? I cant flash MIUI on top of the official 2.3 because of the kernel not compatible right?
and in pink screen, is the Boot.img the kernel? if so can i just replace that one with an older kernel and MIUI will work?
Go to settings/backup reset
There's an option install update from sdcard
That should do it

I see you're familiar with the "usual" way of downgrading...try doing it again, or a couple more times. When I upgraded to .35 to try Aurora ICS I had to flash the rom (ICS) like 3 times before it booted properly (was getting a bootloop before). Also if you don't apply the update (downgrade) more than once you can get a few "traces" of .35 system apps in your .32 rom (I downgraded applying the update only once and now have apps like 2.3.5's file manager, notes app, appinstaller, in my .32 rom.I didn't notice any problems apart from that though.). Hope it helps.

Hi there - I had similar troubles after I updated to stock 2.3.5 (latest edition) bootloader is now locked and previous exploits no good
Here is what I did:
Reflashed with 2.3.5 beta using vol+vol- I found it on XDA, can't remember where at the mo
then used superoneclick -worked fine
However my phone got stuck in boot loop after I tried to install CWM however I found that adb still worked and I used that to mount .cust_backup as rw and copied CWM recovery.img on there then took battery out and rebooted in to CWM and did factory reset and personally i installed aurora ICS 2.0 (2.02 gave me simcard issues) it all worked fine - took some fiddling for me but I hope this would make it easier for you
I wanna upgrade to official gingerbread so i can flach ICS but every time i try it and with any official GB it gives me an update failed.Is there any other way to get ICS to work???maybe flashing .35 kernel and then ICS on the same time???
As far as I know, there's no other way than through the stock ROM. Please try with a freshly formatted SD card that you know works otherwise, and make sure the downloaded/extracted file itself itsn't corrupt.
Did you change any of the partitions sizes?
If so reverting to the original may fix your problem upgrading.
I have run into the same problem and managed to brick my phone.
Been spending hours trying to fix it now. Unfortunately I get the same error with 2.2.
Try this: Put the battery out and connect it to USB charger. I had this problem also.
no luck

I updated from 2.2.1. My only issue was that i had to manually delete DATA every time i booted.
if not i got a bootloop. i only updated to get the Aurora rom so i was cool with it tho
I am getting the same issue with my handset. Attempting to flash stock 2.3 ROM using CWM 4. I am attempting to update my CWM version, but it is not allowing me to replace the recovery.img.
Any help appreciated

You can't flash stock ROMs through CWM. You have to put the "dload" folder from the update in the root of your memory card, then hold volume +, volume -, and the power button down together with the phone turned off. This will start the "official" update process. To save yourself the trouble of rooting your phone after upgrading to stock, flash the B518 update. You'll have to reflash a newer CWM after this; either 5.0.2.7 or 5.5.2.4.

Correct, Sir...and if I may add something.
Try updating the ROM from the internal SD card (remove the external card).....That is if the update still fails with the other instructions given before...
There is always the chance to have a corrupted update.app.
Try to download again the file and use a fresh FAT32 formatted sd card.
Hope that helps
I got it to work.. sorta.
Reformat internal SD card to vanilla partitions -> install 2.2 -> 2.35 -> MIUI v4 elite SX.
2.35 failed to boot so I had to install a custom ROM, which did boot. Now it's running fine with latest MIUI rom.

from that time my phone no boot and stuck at huawei logo, i try other official roms like B522 and B517 etc without luck...all the same result: stuck at huawei logo!
