HELP

HOW TO FLASH A CUSTOM ROM
 
  1. Do a backup of your apps (you can use Titanium Backup, Helium Backup, App2Zip,... obviously you need root; if you came from a stock firmware: either you root it, or you can use Huawei Backup, but don't forget to find also a way to backup this app or to download it in order to restore your apps after the flash)
  2. Do a Nandroid Backup, ie a full backup with CWM/TWRP. To flash or emulate a custom recovery, if you don't know how to do it, you can use this tool (useful also for other stuff)
  3. Wipe cache, dalvik and data (sometimes you need to wipe /system too)
  4. Install zip from sdcard... (in twrp just "Install") > Select the rom
  5. Reboot
PS: if you are UPGRADING to the newest version from the same rom (ex. MK 44.2 09/03 -> MK 44.2 02/04) you don't have to wipe neither data nor system, unless the same chef suggest to do it 

HOW TO FLASH A STOCK ICS/JB FIRMWARE
 
  1. Do a backup of your apps (you can use Titanium Backup, Helium Backup, App2Zip,... obviously you need root; if you came from a stock firmware: either you root it, or you can use Huawei Backup)
  2. If you have flashed a custom recovery, go back to the stock recovery, or it won't work. If you don't know how to go back, you can use this tool (useful also for other stuff)
  3. Download the intermediate pack
  4. Create a folder in your sd and rename it "dload"
  5. Copy the intermediate pack's update.app in dload
  6. Create another folder in your sd and rename it "dloadold"
  7. Download the stock firmware and place update.app in dloadold
  8. Be sure that you have more than 85% of battery
  9. Turn off the phone and reboot it pressing - and holding - vol+, vol- and power
  10. The recovery will do the rest. At the end you will have the intermediate fw.
  11. Now open the default file manager: delete dload and rename dloadold in dload.
  12. Repeat the step 9.
PAY ATTENTION: If you download the JB Chinese version, remember that it's in chinese language! Anyway, you can flash with custom recovery a language enabler pack (download it here)
