I have found a way (not originally mine anyway...) to root Huawei Honor Android GB2.3.6 B866 Worldwide version as provided by Huawei Honor Worldwide website.

Anyway... still waiting for the source to give greenlight to tell you guys... if anybody want to know.

Anybody want to know how to? Or everybody is going to ICS4.0.3??


Added on April 19, 2012, 10:15 pmUpdate : The admin have given me the permission so.. here it is. You have to register for free though to get the file... small price to pay if you really want to get your GB Honor rooted.

http://level5developers.com/showthread.php...-2.3.6-Click-Me

The process is simple. Put the provided UPDATE.APP inside dload folder in your sdcard like normal stock ROM upgrade process.. go to software upgrade and complete the process. After it is done just use the SOC2.3.3 to root your Honor. I think the file update/replace boot files with those that can be rooted. I have done it and successfully got it however I don't really know how it works. Just that it is so easy.

What 4.0.3 firmware did you have? You can check it inside settings-->About phone under build number showing like U8860ICSV100....B9XX

After pressing the *14258369# you don't have to press the call button I think it will straight popup the enable GAPPS option to display or hide. I tried with my B978 build number and it didn't work.

Maybe you can flash the B978 version. It have all the google stuff + can sync calendars and photo too.

Is this link just for rooting or it also is a Custom ROM by itself?

By the way i saw that his Build number is U8860V100R001C250B863 while mine is U8860V100R001C00B866SP01. Will i be able to root my phone too?

Don't worry, we all are learning here.

Anyway, I have used the B978 ICS ROM from the same forum that I have posted. Just go there, go back to the main thread and look for the Huawei Honor ICS 4.0.3 ROM thread. The guy posted the B978 ROM in few parts. Download them, unzip and transfer to the dload folder of your sdcard. The usual procedures follow after that.

Hope it works for you too..

1. Can sync Google Calendars, Photo in B978.
2. GAPPS enabled by default.
3. Rootable.

Yes all your things will be disappear. My advise is :-

1. Backup your contacts to Google.
2. Backup your sms, photos, musics, videos to your pc. Go to your sdcard and check them up. Better if you just copy the whole sdcard to your pc just in case. Make sure any backups using any tools can be restored back like the sms.

That is what I know.

So far I have tried these ROMS and my conclusions are :-

1. GB B866 - Fastest, rootable with only one method I can find so far.
2. ICS B972 - More feature, rootable but slower. No sync with google calendars and photos. ROM hard to find nowadays.
3. ICS B977 - Don't know. I choose not to upgrade to this version online. No comment.
4. ICS B978 - Rootable. Slower than GB but more features. Able to sync with google calendars and photos. This is my current phone firmware right now and I basically got all what I want. Slower than GB yes, but to me I prefer feature in compensation of a bit lower speed.

I am one happy user right now!

Hello. I am newbie in Android world, my new Huawei U8860 Honour is my first
smartphone in this operating system.
I bought the phone in Germany, Europe. The firmware is curiouse:

U8860V100R001DEUC00B870.
Of course, it´s Gingerbread 2.3.6, but the letters DEU means it´s
a german version, and includes a lot of languages.
I don´t know if it can be rooted, and for me is more important
waiting for the REAL and latest version of ICS.

I´m waiting to learn all about our wonderful phone.

Greetings from Spain.

Hi and welcome Patxirulo, congrats on the Huawei Honor. It is a good phone.

You can try to do so with the method that has been posted before not too long ago and tell us the results. However since this is the first time that you use a smartphone I would suggest play around with the non-rooted one for a while first before delving into rooting. Unless you're in a hurry you can always do the rooting when you feel you are ready, having already familiar with your phone and android environment.

There is no latest version of ICS for worldwide distribution Huawei Honor. There are chinese release versions which ranges from B972 to B977 but some with no GAPPS, some with all. Language support limited to English and Chinese. Haven't seen one official ICS ROM for worldwide versions posted at the Huawei Honor worldwide site yet.

Keep and eye on http://www.huaweidevice.com/worldwide/tech...uctId=3834&tb=0 for any new ROMs coming in but I doubt its going to be soon. They're too busy launching Huawei Ascend P1 laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif
