All, I just noticed that the built in Flashlight app has a sh*tload of permissions !!! It's a system app !!

WTF does it need all that for..... I froze it with Titanium.

For those who want Xposed on 4.4.2.

Ascend P6 forum.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.p...40&postcount=59

EMUI 2.3 breaks Xposed due to some theming rubbish that Huawei did.

This is v2.4.1 of Xposed, so some newer modules may not work. I just managed to install it, and will try to perform an update to the latest version and see if it works.

UPDATE:
It looks like only Greenify is working. Gravity box isn't working either. Can't install 2.6.1 without uninstalling the Huawei apk.


Now I'm wondering if the TWRP from Ascend P7 forum can be used, as it is the same CPU.

Hi all. I'm the newest members of the X1. I have been using the phone for about a month. I already root my phone with vroot. Updated to latest KitKat, successfully install adaway and fix sd write issue by reading this thread. But I don't understand how to hide the navigation bar. What is saving the build.prop by gbk? Can someone explain on this? Thanks.

Huawei Ascend Mate2 not getting KK not even 18 month cycle yet.But on comments it say they focusing on Lollipop. Skip straight to Lollipops or will we be stuck on KK only since Huawei doesn't seems to care about the 18 month of software support like Google stated.

I really love this device but it software is just way behind others top OEM.But the hardware is top notch.Battery , screen , signals , design , camera , Soc , ram it's all there waiting to be unleashed.

GBK is the text encoding type used by China. English usually uses LATIN-1 or UTF-8.

You need to save the file back using GBK encoding otherwise the Chinese words inside will become rubbish and your will brick your phone.

Someone on XDA has posted a hack for making 503L roms work on 501L.

And he says it's a KK Beta that supports 320dpi

http://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-med...20-dpi-t2923307

If such is the case, it looks like we can fake it to use 503L ROMs easily.

This phone already on sale officially in Malaysia since early Sept.
Yes you can find it at lowyat
You can get accessories from garage sales or lelong.com. Not much choices than in Sept but I believe should have more choices now. You need to hunt for accessories in LYP.

Sorry no idea on Z3 as had no experience using it
Z3 is only 5.2 inch display vs 7 inch of X1. Both are different categories
The X1 will definitely meet your needs provided you can accept its 7 inch bigger display

X1 is a phablet while Z3 tablet is a full fledged tablet. Some X1 users complain why X1 has no tablet mode but forgot it was never meant to be a tablet
You need to view both yourself to decide
I am fine using the X1 as a mini tablet for movies, reading, youtube, magazine etc
