Opera Mobile Update - Touch Pro, Fuze General

Hello,
I ahve posted a couple of times on here asking how I can update Opera Mobile on my Touch Pro to the latest version and the responses I got were a bit confusing.
Please can someone give me simple step by step instructions how how to upgrade Opera Mobile to the latest version and give me a link to someone that has the correct and working update files so when I new version comes out I can easily upgrade without posting on here asking where the upgrade files are.
Also, how do you set Opera mobile to be the default browser as some programs still open links in PIE which is not what I want.
Thanks
Regards,
Neil

Go to opera.com. Download the latest version. Install the cab. Use the search function next time.

well theres plenty of options. 9.5 is still considered beta. and theres a new build of it like every day. do a search and you can find the cab and just install it. newest versions are builds 15000 and up. they work well. ^_^

Yes, I know about the cab but that just installs a new copy and does not overwrite the current one.
Please tell me a simple way to overwrite the one on the stock rom with a newer version and I did search but did not find anything helpful too me
I also do not wish to change roms as my one is working fine so please do not suggest it

I heard the new version doesn't support the use of the autorotate feature (usind the accelerometer). This is why I have not updated. Is this true?

no its not. it has all the features of the older builds and more.

So how do you update like I asked above?

- Find the CAB with the version you want
- Use a task manager (like Advanced Task Manager) to kill the Opera processes (OperaL and OperaPre) if they are running
http://www.touchxperience.com/en/advanced-task-manager/downloads.html
- Run the install CAB like normal. It will ask to remove the previous version, then say it could not be removed. Continue, and you will finish with a "Installation unsuccessful" message. Just ignore it, Opera will be installed just fine. Open Opera and go to opera:about to confirm the version.
If you are doing a major update, you need to install from a CAB. If you are doing a minor update (eg: not from 19xx to 2xxx, or from 2xxx to 15xxx builds), you can just overwrite the Opera9.exe and OperaL.exe files, so that your preferences aren't overwritten/reset.
And please try searching -- this information has been posted dozens of times, and is posted again and again every time Opera gets updated in the Development & Hacking section.

Latest versions include all the features. However, some CABs overwrite the skin files and reset Opera settings, which may disable some features. You can always re-enable the features by editing opera:config, but some users have mistakenly assumed that the latest versions have removed certain things (zoom slide bar, auto-rotate, etc).

Thankyou for your help

Question regarding Google Maps Mobile

I have version 2.0.1.33 pre-installed in my X7510. I searched the google maps mobile site, but did not find what the latest version is, does anyone know?
I wanted to know because I get this error "My location Beta is not compatible with the device" message. I was wondering if this problem was fixed in their latest version. Questions pertaining to this same question on their site has no answers, maybe someone here knows a solution?
Thanks in advance.

The current version is 2.2.0.16. I have been successful in the past few months by DLing from www.google.com/glm/ on my device. I find that the page located here shows the version number, whereas www.google.com/gmm/ does not.

I received that same error message on version 2.2.0.10 while travelling a few weeks ago in Florida. I had never seen that message before, and was surprised I got it at all, considering that I KNOW GMM works with my device. I have not gotten that error message since that one time, so it might have been a fluky thing on their servers.
Anyway, I hope this helps in some way,

Thank you very much. This helped a lot.
I downloaded from google.com and got version 2.1.0.10
I wonder why the difference in the latest version???
I still got the same result. Where can I get he CAB file of your version number?
I get the same error, just disregard it. As far as I can tell, it doesn't affect anything with the app using GPS. It must be a feature abailable to specific devices.

Very strange. I DL'd from the URL I presented above (google.com/glm), and [I just double-checked] the version number it installed is also as above (2.2.0.16). I cannot explain why your's is different. Maybe it has something to do with locale???? Curious ... what version did the DL page state for you?

Hi guys I've been trying to download that version many times, but all I get is the "jad" file.
I've tried looking for the download link on my PC and windows mobile phone and the only place I can download it is in the "on a mobile device? click here."
Can someone please point me to the right direction or provide the cab?

Just go to the site from your phone, and from there you can download the cab. The .jad file is for Java, what device do you have?

I have the HTC Touch (Sprint Vogue). I stated that I tried that, but all I get is the .jad file. Other people have stated that they got theirs without any trouble.
I have downloaded the latest ROM with WM 6.1 from their official website.
Is there any other way I can get the cab?
UPDATE
Thanks for the help, but I found that using Opera or Skyfire will not give you the cab file.
You have to use Internet Explorer to get the file.
UPDATE
I got Google Maps to work correctly on my HTC X7510. The option "MY LOCATION" now works fine. All I did was set the options to "MANUALLY" locate GPS. Basically I plugged-in the vallues I used from Start>Connections>GPS Settings.

Huawei U8860 Honor / Honour / Glory - Index

Welcome to the Huawei U8860 Honor / Honour / Glory - Index!
(please treat this thread as dev-thread, it is part of a dev-forum, not Q&A)
Please don't PM me for support, I will ignore those requests - they are just too many and I'm not getting paid for that, I'm not huawei support. Just ask your questions somewhere in the forum, but in my opinion this thread is really not the place for it, since this is a developer forum and not the Q&A section. That's why xda-developers adds restrictions to post here for new users - to prevent this to be a Q&A-Forum. Please Try to ask your questions in the appropriate Q&A-Section of the xda-developer Forum.
Different versions of the Huawei Honor
There are two feature differences that I am aware of:
Number of Touch-Points: 2 or 5; I have 2 touch-points and with B977 my ProjectMenu just printed "synaptic" as touchscreen version, with B919 it states "synaptics-TPK.6"
Position of Huawei Logo on the back: in the top-left corner (china / russia?) or in the middle like this: http://kaefert.is-a-geek.org/huawei_honor/IMG_7491_small.JPG
It seem's there are versions without a camera? at least user limzm states in his signature his U8860 doesn't have one.
Backup & Recovery
In my opinion the first and most important thing when playing around with different ROMs, is the ability to backup and restore the phones ROM & state.
For this you need a custom recovery (which you will also need to flash custom ROMs, so you might only skip this if you want to only flash stock ROMs)
If you're on an 2.3.6 ROM, then possibly for this to work, you first need to flash a different stock ROM. There have been reports that with 2.3.6 the method below may not work. Also some newer ROMs like B923 and above have locked boot loaders, the latest ICS ROM that you can use for this is B919
NEW: CWM 6.0.1.0 with touch-support: MOD EDIT: Link removed.
OLD: download recovery-u8860-en.img from here MOD EDIT: Link removed.
make sure there is no directory named "dload" on your micro-sd-card - if there is, rename or remove it.
Turn off Fast-Boot, and shutdown your phone. If you don't know how to turn off Fast-Boot, pull the battery (it can be found in different places in different ROMs)
Press and hold volume-up, volume-down and power-button at the same time.
You should now see your phones screen pink (="pink screen mode")
Now connect your phone with an USB cable to a computer
A few disks should be mounted, search for the one that has an "image" folder with an recovery.img and a boot.img inside it. rename the recovery.img to recovery-bak.img (or simular) and copy recovery-u8860-en.img there and rename it to recovery.img
WARNING: Don't use the file recovery_v8.img which is referenced in a few other guides. It crashes and leaves you with non bootable phone-states and/or with unfished backups which cannot be restored.
ROMs
Stock ROMs (& leaked stock ROMs)
Stock ROMs (or leaked stock ROMs) can be flashed like this:
Download and unpack onto your micro-SD Card like that: /mnt/sdcard/dload/UPDATE.APP (some ROMs also have UPDATE_CUST.APP, copy it to the same place. If you're update has a second dload_cust (or the like) folder, you need to flash it in a second round just as the first one, by renaming it to "dload")
Turn off Fast-Boot, and shutdown your phone. If you don't know how to turn off Fast-Boot, pull the battery (it can be found in different places in different ROMs)
Press and hold volume-up, volume-down and power-button at the same time.
If everything above was done correctly, you should be able to watch your phone upgrading now.
Alternative: Some ROMs have an option in the settings that lets you start the upgrade-procedure without step 2.) and 3.) from above. If you can find it, you can use that one.
You can find stock ROMs here:
International ROMs: http://www.huaweidevice.com/worldwide/technicaIndex.do?method=gotoProductSupport&productId=3834&tb=1

(thanks to user det-happy for pointing it out to me)
The most important Stock-ROM in my eyes (as base for most custom ROMs there are) is B919, find it here:

For people running linux on their computers, I've created an adapted version of this root tool:
kaefert.is-a-geek.org/huawei_honor/HuaweiHonorRootTool_LinuxVersion.7z
OLD: Theres a nice guide explaining how to root and flash+enable google-apps here: (but don't take the recovery from there but from above. explanation also above) - only use this if the new method above doesn't work for you.

Custom ROMs
To flash custom ROMs:
download their .zip file and put it somewhere on your sd-card
boot into your custom recovery: turn off phone completly, then Long press volume up + power button (for installation of custom recovery see top of this post)
factory reset / wipe everything (not always necessary, but to be on the save side. Some ROMs will not work in some cases if you don't wipe first, however the other way round is also possible, there are custom ROMs that will NOT work if you wipe, best look at the instructions from where you downloaded the custom ROM..)
flash update zip -> choose zip from sd card.

Custom Kernels
I found a custom kernel that adds the option to overclock up to 2GHz. I'm used it running at 1.8GHz and it didn't seem to be any more unstable than before (I'm using the MIUI ROM which is a little bit instable all by itself already)
MOD EDIT: Link removed since you need to register to download the kernel, I also attached it MOD EDIT: Link removed to make it easier for you.
I also managed to build (and deploy) the 3.0.8 kernel sources provided by huawei myself, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23505650
With the help of the writer of rvoix I managed to adept our kernel in a way that rvoix works, but for the moment only mono so both parties mixed together in one channel (but recorded from the line, not only from the mic like most apps do). I attach the kernel that works with rvoix: View attachment boot_voc2.img.
Or for people wanting to build their kernels themselfs, here's the patch: http://code.google.com/p/rvoix/sour...pdragon/kernel/huawei_honor_u8860_rvoix.patch
UPDATE: Since our kernel sources don't work with B919 and later (non functional camera and wifi) I decided to go the other way round and modify the rvoix app to work with our kernel instead of adapting the kernel to work with the app. Here are the results: http://code.google.com/p/rvoix/downloads/detail?name=rvoix_mod_kaefert_v2.apk --> call recording that should work with all huawei honor 4.0.3 ROMs!
Various pointers
Adapting Chinese ROMs
Adding Google Apps (like the Market) --> Download zip from here http://goo-inside.me/gapps and flash it with recovery
Remove unwanted chinese system apps --> I do it with QtADB --> http://qtadb.wordpress.com/ But I guess you can also do it with some root app management apps
Change to languages that are not choosable in the standard language setting --> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.co.c_lis.ccl.morelocale
Reading chinese sites
People who don't use google chrome or the chromium project (yet) probably don't know, that it has a really nice built-in translating feature, thats very useful for finding your way arround all these chinese (or russian) websites, and much better then using translate.google.com (or other such services) manually with other browsers.
Miscellaneous
Silent Huawei camera (ICS)
I was annoyed one day by all the noises the huawei camera simulates. Therefore I investigated and found out how to make it silent.

Hi guys.
I've just cleaned this thread and would like to remind everyone about some points, so that they're not repeated in the future, and explain all the missing links you may notice.
Warez is strictly forbidden on XDA. Please do not link to websites that provide it, or to ROMs that contain pirated apps.
Kernels are licensed under the GPL. This means that the kernel's source should be provided. If it is not, it's illegal and will be treated as warez as far as XDA is concerned. In simpler terms: if you're posting a link to a ROM that contains a kernel, or a kernel, make sure the kernel's source is available and link to it as well.
Recoveries that aren't based on stock and that use a zImage (which is covered by the GPL) must also be provided along with the source.
Links to competing or commercial websites are not allowed. Links to websites that require registration to access downloads are also not allowed (there are exceptions, please see rule #11 for more info.)
Credits must be given, and you must have permission to share the work. Assuming that you do: if this goes against the point above, you may mention the member/website without linking directly to his work. Point #2 still applies - a link to the kernel's source must be provided if necessary.
I realize this may have caused links to your favorite custom ROMs to be removed, and I apologize about that. Many of you clearly put a lot of effort into building, maintaining and helping with this index. However, all posts must respect the rules first and foremost.
Please PM me if you have any questions or if you need further clarification.
Thanks for understanding.
Hey thanks so much for helping with this. I followed your guides and managed to get my Honor rooted and on an ICS version. Thanks so much.

Well, I've been using it for 2 days now. I wouldn't call it stable, it has some rough edges, sometimes some system app crashes (like in the beginning I had a problem with the SMS-app), and I've had 2 complete system crashes (forced reboot) while running oruxmaps for navigation & gps-logging with my byclicle.
Check with you, if i installed the custom recovery, and root, can i revert back to stock by flashing via the settings menu or the vol/power button combination and stock rom in load directory?

Well the settings menue doesn't contain the huawei upgrade option in every ROM (for example not in the MUIU ROM), but the volumn up+down while booting will probably work, I haven't tried though. The upgrade directory however has to be call "dload", not "load".
To revert back to a previous ROM I find it much better to use the nandroid backup and recover options that every recovery image I saw yet contains. However be careful, the recovery-v8.img posted on some other places is instable and crashes before the backup is finished. you won't be able to recover such an incomplete backup. Always check if you have some backup complete message, it should NOT reboot automatically after making a backup.

What is in MIUI rom better than the official rom that you like?

Well the MIUI ROM has much more configuration options, for example you have a statusbar settings page where you can choose between default battery icon, percentage number or the top pixel row in green. Or also the MIUI theme chooser is really nice.
Another useful thing is the permission manager thats included that (if you config it that way) asks you whenever an app tries to use a permission that its defined to require. for example if you have an app that has the permission to send sms then the permission manager will ask you the first time that the app really sends an sms if you want to allow or deny it, and also if you want to save your choice or if it should ask next time again.

Hmm. Well the only ideas I have:
1.) Theres a 2G+3G / 2G only switch, in the MIUI ROM I linked in my first post you can reach it like this:
Home Screen --> Settings --> More... (4th point under the heading Wireless & Networks) --> Mobile Networks --> Only 2G-Networks
If that switch is on, than obviously your phone won't connect to a 3G network
2.) Your not in range of a 3G network?

The ROMs that I know of and that I've tried you find in the first post. I found the loader (=desktop) of the non-MIUI ROMs to be faster and snappier. (However, the MIUI is more feature-rich)
Okay thanks alot I think I'm gonna give MIUI a try. Downloaded the latest version from the MIUI website. Have you tried any CM Release?

As far as I know there is no CM (cyanogenmod) ROM for the Huawei U8860

[Q] How to verify a third party apk download?

I have an old phone that uses Android 2.x, I think froyo or gingerbread. I want to download AFWall+ which is a firewall application that's the successor to DroidWall. The problem is the most recent version no longer supports the Android version used by my old phone. The app's details are here (I can't make it a hyperlink because I don't have 10 posts):
Code:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dev.ukanth.ufirewall&hl=en
The relevant part says:
- Supports 4.x ,5.x and 6.x (for 2.x support use 1.3.4.1 version)

But the problem is I don't know how to get the 1.3.4.1 version and verify it is the legitimate version. There are a lot of websites that offer downloads for older versions of apks but they could inject anything they want in them couldn't they?
I would ask the developer in his thread what is the proper way to go about this but as I mentioned I don't meet the post requirements at the moment.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

@ukanth Sorry to bother you again but I can't find version 1.3.4.1 in your thread. Did you ever get a chance to post it somewhere? I can get it from a 3rd party website but I just need you to give me the hashes of the packages so I don't install something that's trojaned. I'm a computer programmer but I don't know much about phones, so please keep that in mind if you have special instructions. Thanks

@agenda21, Can you try this and let me know, this I found in my backup's. If it doesn't work, then I will build one using the old source and update it.

I raised a request in f-droid to restore the old version https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/issues/362 . Lets see.
