Someone has already released a Froyo 2.2 rom. Only thing is mms doesn't work yet but everything else does. There workin on a fix for that.
First of all...that blog that came out about the 2.2.1 update was real but the guy stole the file from us and reposted it..I was the first person to ever have 2.2.1 on my ascend and have data wifi and txt to work..but MMS was failing..then a person named Dark found another version of the same software I had that wasn't in Chinese by default so he released it thats when the dude jacked the file and reposted it as his .. The 2.2.1 update is really made for the phone u8500 not our m860 but works fine on the phone with a few bugs that are trying to be worked on by me and darklg at this time and a few others..
if you go to myascend.org and read under dev section you will see our post that are original that we have found this first..also when I spoke to huawie my self they said march 16th they will release an 2.2 update..hope this explain some stuff...thanks
okay..update the guy updated his page with correct thanks to the right people..but the people came from the myascend.org group..
Someone made a thread on how to install it. I was going to install it myself but the instructions just disappeared and i can\\\'t find them anymore. I was like halfway done and couldn\\\'t finish the instruction thread, so I had to flash the recovery ROM.The thread was fairly new, only one member had replied to it, Jazziete but suddenly it diasappeared.
Hiya JohnycsfI was able to get the working version of the firmware and it works great. I haven't had any issues!
I also have written and given all the links and explained it all step by step!
So if you want to upgrade your firmware look no further.

I think I'll be smart and just wait for an official update, if one is released, rather than installing a possibly wonky update and winding up with a crippled phone. Why are people so impatient about this? If the phone doesn't run the way you wanted, why did you buy it in the first place?
The rom does feel crippled after icarus1.1
The speed isnt worth the loss of a2sd
Tokenpoke, let me ask you this, I rooted my phone and installed Rom Manager and flashed to 3.0.0.5 CWM. I tried the jinky 2.2 and it only partly ran, couldn't get APN to come up without force closure.
If I have CWM 3.0.0.5 can I still go to Icarus or do I have to change my CWM?
yeah sure you were the the first person EVER????????? Really!!!
how did you figure that out?????
nooo clue my man..just got 2.2 from metro and it works perfectly for me..even switched from Icarus without doing recoveryHey I downloaded the 2.2 update (runs beautifully now) BUT my phone will not make any sounds since doing so, I can hear alerts,alarms,calls,music with headphones but nothing comes out of the speaker. No clue what to do. Can anyone help?
