yeap. gt problem wif ICS playing games.
GB no problem. even with shadowgun.

how to downgrade from ICS to GB???
any want teach me pls~~~

Looks like its an os thing afterall gonna downgrade to gb

go huawei global website dl the 2.3 firmware. then put inside ur sdcard.
then go setting , storage there, press s/w upgrade.

this is the easiest way

what is your GB version? 2.3.6? and already rooted?
thanks for the info...i will downgrade by weekend.

First have to make sure backup the current ICS 4.0.3 in the phone. Or do we have already a 4.0.3 that can be used and when send warranty still valid? I am more worried about the warranty issue when we have replaced the OS from ICS to GB.

any software that can be download to capture screenshots with huawei honor?

phone not rooted.

Try Long press power button and volume down not sure if it works on gb or not but definitely works with ics

im nt using GB, using ICS, nt rooted.

I am not sure whether this is a issue or my ears are just too sensitive to it.

I recently heard static or "hissing sound" in the background when I was talking to a person in a call. Now, I have checked with another Huawei Honor owner and the phone also has the same effect. Is this normal? I mean, maybe it is the noise cancelling microphone or something something.

Just want to highlight it and hear from other owners.

Another thing is that I am a bit disappointed with the inability to make video calls natively. I just get to wonder, how the hell did Huawei built a phone with front and back camera yet does not support built in video call???

Update : BTW, I already experiencing hang and freeze up conditions... really thinking of getting GB to run on this phone.

I'm not sure if other Android phone support built in video call or not... since this is my 1st Android phone with front camera.

I checked my friend HTC Sensation XL, also don't have built in video call...

Others care to comment on this?

same problem here (static or hissing sound). i thought it might be hardware problem.

should go service center to check

I have continued doing research on this and found out only a few android based phone do have native 3G video calling function. I guess this is like a past technology being discarded as it is seldom being used or have to add more cost to implement hardware inside the phone etc. etc. and with it being a smartphone having WiFi, Mobile Networks and all which can use them to make internet based Video Calls so there is more weight on leaving the old 3G function and rely more on the net bandwidth to enable the video call.

So, basically using a smartphone even with a front camera doesn't enable you using your only enabled Voice, SMS and 3G Video calls simcard to do a video call without having a data plan service enabled.

Today I experienced frequent lockup / freeze and auto restart condition of my Honor phone. Maybe because I installed a lot of games into it?? Or.. due to the Go Power Master Apps that I installed? The battery drains also quite fast even though I did not do anything much. Leaving it idle and in sleep mode still drains the battery away. Compared to my MTK6573 phone it is now amazingly have long battery standby time. 1 days already go past by and the juice still have 50% left. I didn't use 2 sim cards though, only one. The MTK6573 phone has 1500mah battery.

I am still waiting the Honor battery to extend fully to what it should be able to put out - 2-3 days of standby time. Maybe I will just left the phone idle except for calling/receiving calls, msg etc. No WiFi, gaming, internet and all those other stuff.

I've to admit that the stock GB is more stable and faster even compared to Cambodia ICS.

Network coverage also seems better with GB.

But I'm missing my Chrome browser.

yeap, stock gb is more stable . but cant find the firmware dl on the internet
wan to revert bak to stock gb also cant
chrome browser only support ics

Get it from huawei's website http://www.huaweidevice.com/worldwide/down...softid=NDM2NzQ=

For those who want to try root can use http://www.unlockroot.com/ this cool tool can root and unroot your Honor with just a click. *Warning* I am not really sure if you can unroot your phone back without leaving any traces ie. back to 100% before being root. Therefore use it at your own risk.

I know... "Missing" here in context of "rindu"

After reading all the comments, can I say that in your opinion, gb is overall more stable and better than ics in Honor?

If this is so, why does Honor now come with ics version? bcoz of I nvr use the gb in Honor b4, I duno how is gb working in Honor. Btw, I dont find any big prob on the ics now, bt i experienced 2 times of auto switch off b4.
