That joke is not a joke? What a joke? LoL!! Why Cambodia then? So weird! Anyway, good to hear its a stable ROM.

There's another bug for ICS... the "Time Take" properties in photo EXIF is having bug... all the photos are 8/2/2002. Its messing up the photos sorting! Can help to check if the Cambodia version solved this bug?

Hello guys,

I just bought Huawei Honor yesterday at IMCC Mines 2. Default OS is Android ICS 4.03. One question.. does anybody know where can I get the Android Gingerbread 2.3.6 stock firmware so that I can revert back. I feel ICS is a bit heavy for Honor.

So I would like to have in hand the stock Gingerbread 2.3 stock rom and the ICS 4.03 in hand in time of needs to re-flash them incase something goes wrong.

Anybody have knowledge of where to get them? I would be very grateful, thx a lot!

Summary of the phone : Sometimes jerky with ICS 4.03, memory seems lower than only 342.1MB, maybe cache 128MB use some of it (not 512MB), internal storage 882MB (not 1GB), i noticed there is a 2GB internal SD Card which I don't know for what. Camera capture is good enough for me. Video recording seems okay too despite a scary review of it being jerky (maybe ICS fixed the issue). Battery longetivity still under testing. Overall.. good phone for the price.

maybe this one?

Keeping this Cambodia ICS in view for another week... If no global/Malaysia version ICS by then, Cambodia it is.

*Dang! I think Huawei has removed the ICS Cambodia from their website... anyone care to share?

emmm... om Google Play it stated that Dungeon Hunter 3 is not compatible with Honor... weird since it is compatible with my old Motorola Defy...

What are requirements Google set for apps compatibility on devices?

mind to tell us why u feel that the ICS 4.03 is heavy for honor? =.=  coz i actually feel that honor performs better wif ics wor...

I have tested GB 2.3.6 briefly on the same Honor before this plus I have been using a lower spec of smartphone (MTK6573 + 256RAM + 512ROM + Dual Sim) for a few weeks and comparing to ICS, GB 2.3 seems more lightweight thus making it easier for the hardware to cope with the OS.

I think the Honor ICS still needs some more polishing to go. Hopefully in the near future we will see a better version.

Does anybody tried playing Assassin Creed Altair's Chronicles with it? I tried and the in-game graphics were not correct, having non-texture loading objects making them not rendered correctly. I tried at the MTK6573 phone and it work just fine. Weird. Anybody got a solution?

Bro, Honor is another single core phone,

We wouldn't recommend to go hard for gaming, as it aint' design for hard core gamer,

Perhaps you might need to consider our P1 or D quad for gaming purpose?

Custom ROMs usually come pre-rooted.  If you have Superuser, you have root.
You can install another launcher, like GO Launcher, if you need specific features.  You'll get an app drawer too then.
There are many tips and tricks for MIUI not available on other ROMs, you can Google for it.
Eg:
1)  at the lockscreen, press Home button and torchlight will function
2)  when you are rearranging icons on homescreen, one finger long-press the app, another finger can swipe the screen

I do know that it is a single core phone.

Which GPU is faster/better : Adreno 205 or PowerVR SGX531? I tried searching for a smartphone GPU ranking chart or comparison but failed to find any. Anybody got a link?

The MTK6573 is considered a lower speed single core phone which clocked at 668MHz whilst Huawei Honor single core phone is clocked at 1400MHz.

I could play the Assassin Creed game in MTK6573 just fine so in Huawei Honor it should be a breeze.

The problem is that in MTK6573 phone the game graphics are displayed just fine with all the textures but in Huawei Honor the texture is not loaded or like a glitch. The game movement is fine, the speed is fine just the in game graphic rendering is not completed. I don't know whether it is ICS or the GPU issue but I would love if someone with Huawei Honor ICS 4.0.3 try the game and post the results for comparison purpose.

Questions.
-How to remove the carrier nme on status bar?
Not sure bout this, as Im not into renaming carrier name.

-Can I change the size of the toggles?
Yes, you can choose the size of the toggles to be Page or normal style. Try look from the setting part. There's certainly an option.

-Can I have multiple dock like those in go launcher?
Nope. MIUI is built with NO dock. Thats what made it famous. As you have experienced, MIUI dont have menu button like any other ROM or launcher, all the apps button are on the main screen, just that you can only have multiple screen + app folder.

-How to hide apps ?
This you might need to search around for third party apps.

-Can I install swype
Not sure bout this too as Im not fancy of Swype. But I read somewhere got user complain that MIUI cant install extra keyboard input, but Im not too sure.

-My language is set to English bt red line (mistakes) appear on most of the word? How to rid this off?
I dont think I've encountered this when I use MIUI. It was all good. Maybe you can add some screenshot? vol down + power still works for screenshot. 

-lastly how to root?
The easiest of all!! Look for an app called "Permission Manager". On the first option, set it to "On" and you are rooted!!

Bro Dan Peng, MIUI has releasd an update to v2.3.30. You can download the update zip to try if it is smoother or solved the bugs? Its just a 4.2MB file.

Mine also has the same problem. Eventhough i am not running assassins creed, games like wheres my water,  shadowguns, samurai vs zombies has graphic problem(graphics unable to render properly, pink color boxes).

I confirmed the issue again when running another 3D game. It seems that Honor on ICS 4.0.3 have 3D rendering issues. Soon I believe we will see more ppl popping up confirmation.
