Yep WellCom download speed is incredibly slow, but you can pause and resume if you use download manager/accelerator

How to update ROM:
1st method:

1) Extract the ZIP file, rename the .nb0 file to firmware.nb0
2) Copy the file firmware.nb0 to your SD card. Make sure it is placed in the root folder (not saved in a folder) and turn off your phone and enter bootloader.
3) To enter bootloader mode, press and hold volume up + down + power buttons until you see the image of the Android logo with exclamation mark.

5) Press ‘back arrow’ to confirm.
6) Reboot your phone, it took some time on first boot so patience

2nd method:

1) Download SUT L1 (any other SUT is fine too) and install it
2) Download the ROM you wanted to flash and extract it until you get .nb0 file

4) Plug in your phone, run SUT and follow instruction. After its done turn off your phone, if it isn't open up battery
5) Reboot your phone, it took some time on first boot so patience

For 2.3.4 ROM you can use manual method by following instruction here. Or follow rooting through CWM recovery method

Some important link/discussion all around the web and sources from this post:
1) Official CSL Mi410 discussion @ kaskus forum
2) Huawei IDEOS X6 discussion forum @ Android forum
3) Custom Rom For Wellcomm A99,Spice Mi410 or Huawei X6 or variant’s! @ android4u
4) [Q] can someone make custom rom for WellcoM A99 (Huawei U9000 Ideos X6) @ xda developer

Weird!!! When I follow the second method to change to "WellcoM-A99-V318E.nb0", it show me the error msg of "The software image file does not match with your phone software..."

But, when I follow the same method to change to "FB0-318D-0-5012-A03.nb0", it success update my phone.

The important thing is, is there a way for me to change to "WellCom A99 2.3.4 318E ROM"???

Can you give me a name for that file..probably I can helping you..

Hi. I've been using Android phones for more than a year but it's only recently that I've been exploring updating and rooting.

I own a Cherry Magnum. I used Wellcom's 2.2 for a while and was very happy with it. Now I'm running on Cherry's 2.3. Last month, after a few weeks on it, I suddenly experienced really bad lag (on wakeup etc etc). No amount of factory resets fixed it. After not touching the phone for a few days, it just suddenly went back to normal. I rooted via CWM last weekend and experienced the terrible lag once again. In other forums, they said Cherry's 2.3 is really buggy and advised me to use CSL's or Wellcom's. I unrooted the phone (using original recovery.img) and tried to flash CSL's 2.3 (through pressing power+vol up+vol down) but my phone rejected it. So I'm going to try flashing Wellcom's. Is there anything I should do before I do this?

Need advise. Thanks heaps
