Hey guys, many ROMs for u8800 are stable :laugh:

Don't
Like the kind people above have said, don't get it.
Even though it has official ICS update, the chances of huawei fixing the bugs in the official update is very slim. While with U8800, you have Aurora ICS. And, I must say, it is an amazing ROM and DZO will be back to start developing it again (read the last few pages of the Aurora ICS thread).
Thanks.

I've had my u8800 pro for about 4 months now and I haven't had absolutely any issues or bugs with the phone. First I used the official gingerbread (which worked flawlessly) and then installed kalo's 2.3.6 rom just to get some extra customization and smoothness.
I'm still happy about getting this phone and it is excellent for it's price. I recommend.

[Q] [INSERT ROM NAME] would be best

hi, tryin to decide which GB ROM to run on m2
who has tested em all so far? and would you mind
helpin on which ROM has the less bugs and with
the most functionality available on it... cheers.
i think the better are ms2ginger and the ginger blurless
im' using the ms2ginger and i'm very happy
If no bugs is your criterion, then I think deblurred GB by w0ndersp00n is the best option.
I'm using ms2ginger. It's very usable, but I am having a problem where the phone does not recognise numbers as being in my contacts depending on the format they are stored in.
I also had a weird issue very briefly where the screen would turn off when I touched it. So still a little buggy.
thanks peeps will try one soon
It's my first post on this forum, so I'd like to say HI to everyone!
I'm lurking this forum for some time ago and I know, that there's quite intensive paralell development of few mods. I want to completly reinstall my MM2 and - by the way - I want to try to check new custom mods, hoping that there's a chance to improve performance of my Milestone2 .
So I'd like to repeat initial question by xOnerOs - almost a week have been passed, maybye situation have changed - do You still have no objections to sahilarora911's opinion, that [ROM] Mostly Blurless Gingerbread is for now most bugless and most stable among the other mods?
My goal after MM2's reinstall is to have a stable platform with no need to reinstall everything after 2 days due to some critical mega bug .

[Q] Wht is the best rom to update?

Hey
I still have Froyo on my U8800 and I want to update to a flawless rom
wht shall I choose
official GB
oxygen
Aurora
....etc
It deppends of what do you want to do with your phone.
Install all the tree and make your choice
Sent from my Huawei Ideos X5 using xda premium
well I want...
improved functions
radio
longer battery life
no essential fails (like no haptic feedback or missing wifi ..etc like the official GB)
play games that froyo can't
i think you must try it one by one.
I would choose a .32 kernel based ROM, as they are still more stable at the moment. Oxygen by dzo would be my first choice
Which rom is stable and less bug?
i am newbie..
I Have Tried Lots Of ROM. I Can Say Best ROM It CM7 Till Now.
The first thing I did when I bought my phone summer last year, was root it and install a custom rom. Didn't even boot it to look at the stock set up first!
First rom I installed was Oxygen, and I have it say it worked great. Stable, fast, good battery life, and never had any problems.
Last month I decided I needed a change, not because there was anything wrong with Oxygen, but just because once in a while I like to play around with different roms.
Tried Aurora, and have to say it's great. Not quite as speedy as Oxygen and battery doesn't last as long, but pretty and damn stable, haven't had a crash yet.
Tried MIUI one afternoon, but not to my liking, too far from the Android experience imo.
Can't go wrong with either Oxygen or Aurora, depending on what you're looking for.

[Q] Official ICS

Hi guys.
Huawei is going to release official ICS for Huawei u8800 (non pro)? If yes so please ETA? Or Huawei never release official ICS?
Thanks for the replies
The normal Huawei U8800, or Ideos X5, will not receive an official ICS update. It has not been announced, nor will it ever be. Sad, really.

So huawei u8800 (non pro) will not have official ICS.
Got it in one, it does not even have an official supported gingerbread technically. B528 was the just last one they got to before canning it and saying they were not going to do anything else to this phone. B528 still has showstopper bugs on many phones. I think U8800pro only got ICS because it shares a fair bit of hardware with the G300 so kernel, baseband etc was quite compatible.

[Q] Most stabe custom rom recommendation?

Hi guys, I've just recently purchased a U8800 (NOT pro, just the normal one).
I did some research already and the more I read, the more confused I am. It seems that many roms, especially the MIUI ones all have similar problems related to performance, wifi issues etc.
And speaking of MIUI roms, I'm not sure which one is the better one (in terms of speed and stability). Here're the ones I'm referring to:
[ROM] MIUI V4 based Elite ROM SX - (Stable) - 2012-07-14
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1562661
[ROM][MIUI-V4][2.8.3][3.0.8]CrazyMiui|08/05|{SMOOTH,FAST AND STABLE}
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1690156
MIUI PORTUGAL V4 - 2.9.29.1 (Base GenoKolar)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1928336&highlight=miui
It seems that some of them are based on GenoKolar's MIUI rom, and that some are based on other people's roms.
The same applies to other non-MIUI roms, such as this one:
[ROM] Elora 1.10.13 - 2012-10-13
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1798031
which is a hybrid of DZO's Alora rom and some extra added stuff from other roms.
Anyway, I'm really confused by which one to try. I don't want to risk bricking my device or going through the trouble of testing each one and experiencing the problems or bugs, and then try the next one and so on. I was wondering if someone could kindly provide some suggestions as to which rom is the most stable and is decent in terms of speed/performance.
Also, by stable I mean that it has the least bugs OR that it has the minimum amount of critical bugs that could affect the phone's daily use.
Thanks in advance.
Personally i think that for daily use ezet's CyanogenMod 7.2 with .32 kernel is the best considering performance,battery etc. but it is kind of outdated since dzo has made a pretty stable ICS rom(Aurora) which is a lot newer and smoother but with a few bugs remaining. Not to mention that dzo is from the same city as you haha!

Thanks for your reply!
Ya I also think that CM 7.2 is quite outdated, even my Motorola Milestone (which has locked bootloader and no custom kernel support until recently) is on an even newer CM RC release, I think it's on RC3 or RC4 now.
And ya I also agree that Dzo's Aurora rom is probably the most updated one around here but I did read a few comments in the last few pages about certain bugs so I dunno if I should flash it or not.....
I prefer Aurora 4.1u1 for daily use. There's still some bugs, but with some time and understanding of how to find the reason of your problem you'll get the most recent and stable ROM for U8800 now. Also Dzo's back and he is working on the update now so it wouldn't take long to fix all the bugs remaining.
Hi!
Actually i'm with Elora. It's pretty cool and stable.
Best regards
MIUI PT, based on Geno's version is the way to go., in my oppinion.
Very stable, nice and weekly updated
But, honestly speaking, althought every rom as its ups and downs, nothing like you try them all and see which one adapts better to your needs. :good:

[Q] Most stable ICS or JB ROM?

I have an old Droid Pro laying around and right now I'm using it strictly as a WIFI business line. It's working great for that, but I wouldn't mind installing a STABLE version of ICS or JB on it. I have been out of the loop for the Droid Pro for some time now so I am curious what people's opinions are on what a good and STABLE version of ICS or JB is out for this phone.. Any links to the roms you suggest with detailed instructions for my uninformed self would be awesome.
