nuttmeg

hi, so i got the text from metro pcs to upgrade my huawei ascend to 2.2,it is rooted (z-root) but i never messed with the rom. will it be safe to just do the update.

Wazzzzup nuttmeg -

Any word yet on how I can upgrade to 2.2 besides your last comment about taking it in to the store?

Hello sir, I did not unrooted my phone before doing the update to froyo2.2.... and now I'm very stuck on the huawei logo, I can't even get to cmw, or anything, the phone won't boot or nothing.... I've heard that there is a software that can fix my phone using the computer? I've tried everything, flashing back to stock, trying to reinstall cwm, and so far, nothing happens... I think there's a conflict with recoveries, cause after flashing back to stock, when I try to boot on cwm, it shows me just cwm 2.x.x.x at the bottom of the screen but nothing else... I need your help please..! thank you so much!

Sat evening
Update

So I just got off the phone with metropcs...cuz the update even from the website didnt work..update fails. He stated that even though I have used the recovery tool to flash to 2.1 my phone was rooted at one time which effects the firmware cant ever get it off. This why update fails. So nuttmeg and all other droid friends....what do I do from here. Does my phone work when I dial it in? Z4 root, GO launcher and some other cool items....do I need the update/no ...well I would like it just cuz I am a nerd and enjoy tweakin on it...any suggestions?

Happy FAther's Day to all

Good morning nuttmeg -

First off thanx for all your help. I do appreciate your patience. I now can flash my ascend like a pro back to 2.1 but still unable to update to 2.2 from the steps you gave me...its keeps going to the home screen and locking. I left it on all night and when I woke up still stuck in that loop.

Here are the exact steps I take:

1- Using the MetroStockRecover I flash to 2.1

2- I then install Z4 root

3- Then i got to the market d/l Clokwork ROM

4- Then I install the new Clokwork recovery

5 - I then copy those files to my SD card and follow the instructions that you gave me to the T


Here's the problem:
- It loads then get stuck on the home screen.

My questions:
1- Should I reformat my sd card and if so what is the proper way?

2 - Being my phone is rooted when I update is that affecting it?

3- Are there any other 2.2 I can try? because I see alot of other ones out there but I am trusting you first and your thoughts.

Hey u...quick question, I need to reflash my phone, cant install apps from m, arket it keeps force closing ,so I wanna save my apps, how do I do that again, I have the latest cwm, thx in advance

Installed the gooogle gapps....still no market or metroApps...how do i fix?

There is a problem...even after gapps installation I cant get market? I can use the internet but no market plus no metro apps


Well I got everything installed. I can get online after adjusting APN. Let me play with it awhile...your are the best. I used the following APN config:
MetroPCS
Name: MetroPCS
APN:
Proxy: wap.metropcs.net
Port: 3128
Username:
Password:
Server:
MMSC: http://mms.metropc.n...28/servlets/mms
MMS Proxy:
MMS Port:
MCC: Leave unchanged and set to 310
MNC: Leave unchanged and set to 016
Authentication Type: PAP or CHAP
APN Type: *

*****Is this what you would have done?

SO i decided to follow,or at least try to follow those links that you supplied. CM6 and 7. Which one is best for me though? I have metropcs. ALso I d/l cm7 but how do install...can I please get a step by step guide to installing. Sry dont mean to be a pain.

Thanx alot for the help the other day on restoring my Ascend. I just got the IM from metropcs for the 2.2 and d/l it right now. Any thoughts? I have unrooted my phone but this d/l is going to take awhile...if you have any thoughts on this 2.2 let me know. Q? Is the 2.2 like Cricket? or I cant figure out all these new terms coming out. If you got time can you quickly break it down for me.

Also how do I add you as a friend.

Luke

One more problem, I promise. Is there ANY way to get back to the home screen with out going back page, back page, back page. Example, when I am running an app like talking TomTom how can I just get back to the home screen with out back tracking? Or get back to the lock screen. Anyone would be nice to get to with a push of a button.
Thank you

Hey I'm trying to understand why my ascend wont load CM6 or CM7 i have the 2.2 FroYo Update from MetroPCS so i know it can handle FroYo but why wont it handle CM6 it's based on it... Hmmm Do you think that now that i have 2.2 that i can probably be able to install CM6 at least? I really Want to get CM7 since its based on the Gingerbread but i have my doubts that i can get it on here... What do you think?

2 more questions.... where is nightly / or builds of cm7?
2ndly under CM7-Ascend-05092011-signed, how do I get files to actually copy to my phone via usb cable? I have drivers installed, I can see sd card files, but I copy files and after doing so, files do not show copied on phone screen. Even tried using usb safety remove device, tried rebooting phone after files have copied. They showed copied on cpu screen. Odd
