If you have CWM, you also need to reflash to stock recovery.
Hi Joytest,
Do you mean that the only known CWM Recovery (in chinese) is effective on Kitkat ROMs (like the 7D-501L B102 saerdryl is dealing with) ? Or I misunderstood?

Thx!!

There is an English version of CWM at XDA. It can be used on all KK versions. Google for it.

Hi cphilip.

Usually X1 owners feel the device a bit mor fast (or less laggy smile.gif ) with Kitkat than with Jellybean. But they miss the native 320 dpi. You can anyway set manually the DPI.

On the other way, if you want some real add-on while upgrading, you should upgrade to last chinese ROM (B011), with stuffs like per-app dpi settings. And morever the Kang-VIP custom mod of this B011, which add more features (split screen). Chinese rom just need to install manually gapps.

Let us know if you want to try out , to give you some links to guide you through install.

--

BTW, last european 501L ROM is B103 and not B102, and the last released official roms for 501L are:


B017 Malaysia, 2015-4-17:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-med...01lb17-t3077607

B009 Taiwan, 2015-3-6:
http://consumer.huawei.com/tw/tablets/supp...tw.htm?id=39041

B103 Europe, 2014-11-4:
http://consumer.huawei.com/ch-fr/support/p...fr.htm?id=33626


And as benny888 said, you'll see no real différences beetween them!

1. 400DPI display
It appears that many owners are not fully satisfied with the 400dpi although there is a way to change to 320dpi by Deleting or renaming "set_immutable.list" and by editing the "build.prop."

Yon can modifiy build.prop indeed if you are root:
1)Root
2)Install busybox
3) install terminal and enter commands
> su
> mount -o rw,remount /system
> chattr -R -i /system
4) Delete or rename / system / set_immutable.list [set_immutable.list.old]
5) add following lines to build.prop " qemu.sf.lcd_density=320 " and " ro.sf.lcd_density=320"
6) reboot

Modifying build prop will unenable later update to install on your X1. So, I advice the ADB method, which does not neeed root:
https://plus.google.com/u/0/+AndrewJohnYoun...aFhduFeM?cfem=1

BUT if you install chinese B011 (as you seem to like software updates, I advice you to do that), you'll have a dpi-setting feature for third party apps.... which should be enough. Except if you dislike the 400 DPI framework itself.

2. the rooting methods for latest kit kat rom of the X1.

** to root, try in this order:
kingoroot
http://www.kingoapp.com/

or

Iroot (ex vroot) (launch it twice, if fist attempt fails)
on Windows: http://www.mgyun.com/en/getvroot
and/or on android: http://www.mgyun.com/m/en

or

Rootgenius

(I could only download vroot 1.7.9. My pc blocked me from downloading vroot 1.7.8 because it labeled the file as a threat. Also, I don't read chinese and the vroot program is in chinese I believe.)
After owning the X1, I realized that Huawei is not very good at listening to customers and very slow in providing updates of firmwares to keep up with what Google has made available. Yes, there are things that I loved about the hardware of Ascend Mate 6.1 and the Huawei X1 but I think I will try not to be tempted by Huawei again for my next device even though the hardware features might be out of this World impressive. No point in supporting a company who is only happy with their own abilities to create interesting hardwares but not interested in taking care of customers on the software side.
A moderator on a huawei board announced a lollipop for the X1. If it's true... you might turn back to Huawei again wink.gif:

you can install this B011 on a 503L natively (use dload folder, see page 1 of this thread), and also on a 501L, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.p...204&postcount=1 (2nd part of the post)

Lollipop + EMUI 3 is available on beta, for chinese X1 (503L, 501u). You have to send your IMEI number to get it.

But you can try with a 501L IMEI, who knows....

Usually u will need to flash the 501L radio package that imitate our device to 503L
Hi

most of the 501L users don't flash the 501L modem after passing to 503L ROM. We used to at the beginng, but some users just didn't mange to, and then we discovered that the 4g 501L only frequecies we accessible even with the basic 503L modem.

As far as I know, but I didn't retry earien on, since the release of 501L B103 european ROM.

If you have recently notice some improvement by flashnig 501L modem, let me now!

thx

to downgrade from lollipop beta, you'll have to extract .img files from your desired destination ROM zip file (use the soft "huawei update extractor"), install adb on your computer, and then "fastboot flash" the img files (system.img, and maybe boot.img)

Hi

Last official 501L ROM (android 4.4.2, EMUI 3.0, 400 DPI):
-Taiwan (B103): http://consumer.huawei.com/tw/tablets/supp...tw.htm?id=60006
warning, few supported languages: Chinese & english. But if you root your device, you can add your language with "MoreLangs" and/or "Morelocale 2", available in google play store


Some other recent official 501L ROMs (android 4.4.2, EMUI 2.3, 400 DPI):
- Western Europe (B103): http://consumer.huawei.com/ch-fr/support/p...fr.htm?id=33626
or: http://uploaded.net/file/z4hblokv

- Malaysia (B017): http://consumer.huawei.com/my/tablets/supp...my.htm?id=42841




--------



But, for a more advanced ROM (OTA, lollipop betas...), you should install a chinese rom devoted to 503L, but fully functionnable on 501L:



** Last official ROM released (B011 = Android 4.4.2, EMUI 3.0, 400 DPI framework with per app DPI setting)):
https://www.dropbox.com/s/ohcbibtxu49e0xj/dload.zip?dl=0
(this pack is ready ton install on 501L with no modifications)



** Last Beta ROM released (B113 = Android 5.1.1, EMUI 3.1, 400 DPI framework with per app DPI setting):
Start from a device installed with above B011.
Then update to B110: http://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-med...18#post63329818
Then update to B113: http://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-med...al/rom-t3275540



** add Goolge apps and their sync :
2 possible ways (at your choice):
1)use Huawei store that is already installed on your device:
for gapps: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zI2RYZiTl38
for sync services:
http://a.vmall.com/app/C10029399?shareTo=c...852000000204495
http://a.vmall.com/app/C10029403?shareTo=c...852000000204495

OR

2) Download the apk
For apps:
http://www.apkmirror.com/uploads/?dev=google-inc
or http://d-h.st/ztjI
or https://www.dropbox.com/s/zl1usvxkygsody4/L...sForX1.zip?dl=0?

For syncs services:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.p...07&postcount=31

for the lollipop B011SP05/06 rom's google apps and sync: simply download and install the 3 .apk files attached to:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-med...al/rom-t3226547



Options:
** root using kingoroot:
http://www.kingoapp.com/
(you can after that switch to superSU using https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?...m.supersumepro)

OR for lollipop, you can also use MobileGo:
http://www.wondershare.com/mobile-phone/ho...roid.html#part2


** add the access in the play store to google+ and many other apps:
