I was not using for 1 year, 3 days ago i tried to update it from 2.3.5. I searched some roms and could not decide which one was for me, only i wanted was long battery. I started to install aurora with cwm but now after boorting, it shows huawei logo and then going into black screen.
And everything was deleted. I had made circle battery, and partionaded sdcard and memory to increase memory card capacity.
Now, when i connect to pc, i cant see the driver info. I installed adb drivers but it gave errors.
I dont know what to do and which rom to update...
Please help me to solve this.
How do you update to Aurora?
Can you go to CWM recovery? And bootloader (pink screen)?
Did you format data,system, cache before udpdate to any custom rom?
btw you can boot on Aurora with partitioned disk but try with default partition just to be sure. My advice is downgrade to stock rom then root, change recovery and then update to any custom rom.

I made wipe data cache calvik and then flash zip from sd.
I can go cwm recovery.
I downloaded 2.3.5 stock rom, but there were not working links on Huawei site so i found a Portuguese 2.3.5. I ddid know if it is stock or not.
Doesn't matter if is stock rom you'll be fine. Can phone boot fine from stock rom? If yes download Aurora rom zip one more time and try again :good:.
Install Aurora v5 then u21 after that reboot. But i didn't know how it isn't booting try format that 3 things i said you can see that options on advanced menu.
btw did this happen with others stock roms?

I couldnot go into sdcard because pcgives error, doesnot accept drivers. What is u21?
Other roms worked well until aurora flashed.
While phone iwas on, i could make debuggin and so i could use sd card to copy. Now it is closed because i cant open it, despite i insatall adb drivers, i cant still access to sd card. i can see 2 partition in my computer but it deosnot let me go in. Why is that? How will i put 2.3.5 zip again to recover?

Pcsays new hardware found, then i show huawei drivers to load but it doesnot accept and when i click on huawei partitions in my computer, it says insert a disk.
I cant see what rom i have. I cant open. I cant connect. I can only flash the aurora zip in sd card.
Do you have possibility to try your sd card on other device or maybe sd reader? Try to format if it's still not working try with another one.
I am convinced that you might have flashed the wrong zip. What is the name of the zip file that you have tried to flash?

There is your problem. You were supposed to flash aurora 5.0 experimental zip file first. After that you have to flash the update 20 zip file (without wiping).
So, have you tried going into cwm recovery > mounts and storage > mount USB storage. Then connect the phone to your computer

I didn't understand until now that you haven't got sd external card lol. You need to install aurora_v5 first and after that update20 or update 21.
But if you can boot to recovery you should connect to internal sd to pc and show as usb disk. Try that.

Yes, you have to make sure you have upgraded to official 2.3.5. After that, flash Aurora v5 Experimental. Then flash update 20 on top without wiping.
It would be easier if you get a MicroSD card Reader.

Im having a problem mounting my SD card on my Xoom (external SD card).
It doesnt work at all for CWM, which is strange when normally it should pick it up.
Any hints or tips on trying to get this work?
Specs; Euroxoom 3G
If you have an android phone, format it with that. If not, download an SD card formatting program to your computer, and format it there.
lol i think you misunderstood, but mind you i never put it.... there is no issue with the formatting etc, ....
Problem is the xoom does not detect and Micro Sd card i have, i dont think its a faulty port etc, but i thought motorola hadnt released a software update for it to work? yet people can still flash stuff through CWM?
the sd card slot is activated using tiamat kernel in 1.3.2 or newer
you need to install one of the kernel mod packs. See post 3 of the tiamat 1.4.1 kernel post in the development forum. They'll also get your charging light working.

You can't flash a kernel from CWM until after you have rooted and pushed a custom kernel via ADB first. There are many threads in the development section on how to do this. Look for one that matches your "Euroxoom ". Or, if yours is a wifi only, there is a great tutorial by LanD Master in Q and A, for us noobs.

I didn't have a working sd card slot and I flashed the clockwork recovery last night. I read that clockwork has its own kernel which will detect the sd card. It didn't detect it at first but that was because I inserted the sd card AFTER I booted to CWM. I rebooted, with the sd card still in, and CWM recognized it. Then I loaded the tiamat kernel and flashed it.
Correct. You can infact flash clockworkmod recovery without having already installed a sdcard enabled kernel.
Technically the recovery image is a boot image - it contains it's own kernel and starts its operating system of a ram disk, due to this we can flash the recovery to the boot partition if we need to. (Useful if you screw up a kernel on the wifi models where you can't boot into recovery without doing "adb reboot recovery")
However, don't forget you need an external sdcard to use clockworkmod, the internal storage will not work.
how do I un-partition a sd card? running a rom and was just showing b not telling me how much space i have left or anything. was not even telling me how much internal memory i had on phone

yes i can get into recovery. I tried flashing synergy rom. would it be best to just run the ruu and redo the rooting process?
Reformatting is by far the best way. There is a remove sd partition selection in ClockWorkMod and Amon Ra recoverys,but ive never used them,bcuz i have no need to partition my sdcard because i always have 150mb,or more,free space,no matter which rom i use or what apps i add/install(original Evo 4G).Id simply copy the contents of your sdcard to your computer,then reformat the sdcard,and reinstall the content back to your sdcard.I dont suggest the remove sdcard partition method simply because ive never used it. Good luck.
thank ibcary we got that far now i'm just stuck on the splash screen. the reason for wanting to get rid of the partion is cause it was just saying b. not giving me any info on the card.
If u can get to recovery your doing good. Use Amon Ra if possible. CWMod doesnt always do a full wipe. id try going into recovery and perform a full wipe,wipe dalvik,wipe data,etc,etc...Then download a rom that u know works and is stable. I like MikGs Sense 2.1/3.0 roms,but which rom all depends on your device. Choose a rom thats well known to be a good,stable rom.Try flashing the newly downloaded rom from your sdcard thru recovery and if that doesnt work,then id try using a new/different sdcard. Sdcards dont last forever,and some are downright junk. As long as u can get to your bootloader theres still hope. Im sure your device is ok,but it could be a bad sdcard or a bad rom download. Thats why i recomended a new rom download,and if that doesnt work then try a new sdcard. Goodluck
ok. it was a new sd card that i partioned. am download a rom that I have used before and never had any problem with. but if this doesn't work should i just unroot and run the ruu and start over again?
how do i load the rom onto the sd card since it gets stuck at the splash screen??

thanks you Holsum will give it a try.
once you have root and busybox installed correctly theres not much unrooting and then rooting again will solve.Except to return your device to stock,and to unroot i usually flash the unrooted stock rom. U can try the Root Checker app from the Market just to make sure your rooted and have busybox installed correctly. However custom roms are already rooted and have busybox installed correctly. If its a new sdcard id still try another sdcard. Use an sdcard u know is good. I bought a few cheap sdcards that were 8GB class 10 becuz i got a great deal on them,10 for $110.but out of the 10,only 7 were even recognized by my Evo or my HP dv7 Netbook and worked.Also i highly doubt they are class 10,bcuz my SanDisk 16GB C10 sdcard is much faster,and older too. So just bcuz its new doesnt mean its good.If it still wont work after a fresh wipe using Amon Ra recovery,NOT ClockWork Mod recovery,and a fresh/newly downloaded rom flashed from a different sdcard using Amon Ra recovery to fully wipe,then flash the newly downloaded rom from the different sdcard to your device. That shud work,but if it doesnt u can try reinstalling or updating your recovery.
As usual im a little behind again with my post. Good luck

First: Did you partition all the card or only a certain amount ?
Second: Almost all the Custom recoveries have format card so do that.Then boot back in recovery and mount your card from recovery.
Third: Do not run RUU Period.
Fourth: Wipe all, cache, dalvik and all 2or3 times.
You wont get stuck on splash. since you wipe all give it a bit of time to check everything about 5-10 minutes

on partition the card i just hit the power button on all of it. got a custom rom back on my phone now it is up and running.
I would suggest using this program when formatting your SD ..
https://www.sdcard.org/consumers/formatter_3/
Just and FYI, when partitioning your SD Card, it will wipe the contents. So you'll need to partition SD Card and then move over any content you want to install.

- Make a “dload” directory on SD card root directory
- Copy the “Step 1\ dload\UPDATE.APP” to SD card.
- Long press volume up + volume down + power button on the handset to startup you device until device into upgrade model, the handset will upgrade and shutdown automatically.
- After upgrade success , Restart the handset.

i dont think so,it should work on any phone and on any android version,you'll only face issues with sd card if you are coming from a phone with windows 7 on it
.I think recovery is to blame here,you could just try to use some different recovery like 4.0.1.4 or something.Just try and see if it works.
Hi,
solved. The problem was recovery.
I had the old one - stock installed. I didn't even notice it, because rom manager wrote something different
Now everything is fine. Wish me luck on new rom flashing

I heard you wanted to downgrade because you want to install CM10.1.
Well, there is no need to downgrade. You can flash CM10.1 over Aurora after wiping.
If you still have cwm recovery, go straight to CM10.1.

instead of having dload/UPDATE.APP in the external SD, I used the internal one and the pwr+volup+voldown worked. Instead of the pink screen, it updated to B517 and my phone is unlocked to any network and free to install custom roms (I was at aurora before but without unlocked networks).
I used the ES File Explorer app to copy the dload folder from the external to the internal SD. In ES file explorer settings I allowed to go to the root and the SD cards are in /mnt/sdcard1 and /mnt/sdcard2/ or something like that.
I turned off the device and removed the battery AND the external SD card
I connected the USB to my PC and turned the phone using pwr + volup + voldwn.
Instead of showing the pink screen, it updated.
I did the same to the other step (in B517 there are 2 steps)
I have unlocked networks and I am ready to install custom roms again
I also installed this patch http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1457490 because I was not having USB in the pink screen but I don't know if you also have this issue.
Let me know if this works for you too. I think we had the same issue.
Why with USB cable? Did it not work with the battery? I also want to downgrade to froyo but just waiting for blefish to release his cm10. I also had only pink and no downgrade. I knew this method but never shared cause I did not try it myself. My USB cable sometimes doesn't fit in properly.

Seems like I can't root my phone now, after installing Gingerbread... I'm using SuperOneClick v2.3.3. and it just freezes...
EDIT- Solved. Thanks everyone
