  • I just got my friends, and the text messaging and calendar software seem to be corrupt ... how can i download them again from another source? I hear the alerts for text messaging for example, that a text is coming in, but there isn't anywhere to find the texts. They are not in the notifications menu as expected ... and there is no SM card either ... so? For example, I cannot access any kind of options for Messaging, or anything ... there's just nothing there. I can send texts, but i cannot receive them. My settings are correct ... data enable is on ... but i keep getting the alerts ... but sadly, no texts appear ....

Press the menu key (beside the home key) on the keyboard to wake up the screen. 3. Enter your password and press enter. * This only works for peple who are using password as screen lock instead of pattern.

  • The Huawei U8350 Boulder huh... well it does perform about as good as a rock would. This thing is SLOW. OS, touch screen, keyboard, browser... all slow. The one thing this phone is actually okay for is making calls. I have yet to have an issue with that. Perhaps my feelings toward this phone are a bit skewed seeing as how I have had the opportunity to use and tinker with newer, better phones, but I just can't get past the lack of responsiveness on this thing. Now, don't get me wrong... Huawei makes some pretty nice phones, I just think this one falls short. Unless you are new to the world of celluar devices and you have no previous experience to compare to, this phone is not for you.

  • I just got my phone and i can't hear people when i call them or when they call me, but they can hear me fine. Please help

  • Low apps space, 2.2 Froyo. Huawei should launch GingerBread and support external card for apps

  • update ur set to cyanogenmod follow the link below

  • Dear all Boulder users, Just update ur set with Cyanogenmod android 2.3.7 gingerbread and ur life will be so easy with this phone its awsum m using since 1 month no lag no force close no memory issue, the whole phone each and everything is under ur command. follow the link to upgrade.

  • yeah men cause its processor is only 528Mhz, yes and some of its apps are always FORCING CLOSE, and also some apps are not supported, very old because its only android 2.2.2 froyo, i have already this in my GLOBE POSTPAID, and yet its not upgradable, look at the RAM memory, its only 256 MB, that's why its LOG, like in ADRENALINE MODE, dislike this S**T!!!!

  • i bought this very phone from one of my friends hands so i decided to reset it.But after that i can not use it any more.Please somebody helps Me.I am waiting

  • why instagram is not compatible with this phone? :( it would be great if it does. also, some apps stopped unexpectedly and have to force close. hopefully, huawei would do something about it. :)

  • i have a problem with this phone..i have done the factory reset of this phone...then when its done..it appears touch the android to start...but...when i touch the android it doesn't work... i cant now use my phone...it is just 7 months since i have U8350...please help me what to do.

  • good, i have a tablet, all i want is a phon for calling and texting

  • lol...go to setting --- accesibility --- uncheck "talkback"

  • I Have had this phone for nearly a year now. so far, i have been satisfied with its performance. The only snag is its very short battery life. you darn near have to charge the phone every 4 hrs if you make lots of call. Recently, the phone has been speaking(No. Am not out of my mind) it reads everything from text messages to web addresses I go online and announces the menu when u make a choice. Its become very irritating and i have no idea how to turn it of permanently. what I do is turn of the media volume. Does anyone have any idea how i can turn the voice prompt thing off? Thank you!!

  • i upgraded it to CyanogenMod 7.2... it is good for this device...overlocked the processor to 710mhz and it works smoothly... for ROM, just search "sarah project huawei boulder"... you will find it

  • how can I get TV on phone??? I did have it once, but don't remember how I did it. I am not on Facebook

  • using the "android keyboard" input method, press alt+y then an option will appear, select the ">" symbol.

  • how do you make a greater than symbol on this phone??

  • Try to flash your unit with KENYA ROM-- I heard it is a lot faster and lighter because it is in its untouched state, so its less load for the phone :P

  • definitely Abeid! =D hmmm.. is there any way how to make the battery life longer?

  • Hey ,is it a nice phone to use ,, i mean by is it worth to buy, do you enjoy using it? thanks

  • go to pandaapp.com

  • how to install the more apps??

  • thanks! got it! however, it has a slow response in internet.. well, maybe it's because of the internet coverage in our place..

  • go to setting --- wireless and networks -- tethering and portable hotspot... the settings are there... you can configure it there...

  • hi guys, i just got this HP of mine last month. i found out that there's a WIFI HOTSPOT indicated. how can i share wifi? thanks for those who will reply to this query. Thanks!

  • Is this phone good for texting and calling? I want a qwerty pad phone, I won't use any apps or the wifi just for texts and calls. Thnk you! :)

  • The camera sensor became faulty within 4 months of use. Speaker / voice quality is poor

  • go to for downloads easy to handly browse , photo sharing ,read instructions in manual.very easy :)

  • -No flash for the camera -Battery life sucks -Have to recharge it every 10 hrs or so -No option to hide your number while making outgoing calls

  • How do I send photo's or music to other phones???

  • I just order in my country online market for US$62.50 , unlocked, 1 year warranty. Yeah I know it is not something to brag, but still it has OS , better than the same price range from S*ms*ng or N*k*a :)

  • Great Phone! I bought yesterday only $62/IDR 600rb in indonesia. Just root and install link2sd make many apps can installed in this phone.

  • Where can I find a user manual for U8350. Here

  • Everything's great about this phone, except it is slow half the time. I guess it is a processor issue.

  • How much RAM is available for applications?

  • I love this phone! the price is practical and i really enjoy the features and can download apps from google! This phone is awesome no complaint!

  • just like a cloud fone... unit and market here at the philippines

  • well, let see... - 3G/HSDPA - WiFi - Bluetooth - GPS + A-GPS - QWERTY - TOUCHSCREEN capacity the only mobile phone with complete features and the cheapest at the moment. at least until the time I sent this post. in Indonesia, you just spent Rp. 700.000, - or about $ 72 (usd) to bought this phone. imagine when compared to pro galaxy (qwerty + touch) from Samsung is priced above $ 200 of course there is always a weakness. - Signal reception is not as tough as Japanese mobile phones. - Inadequate service center (huawei). - Not available flash support. - The phone is 3G/HSDPA but NO Camera for Video call. it's All. most people would not think that you're holding a china phone. shape and sturdiness feels solid, not flimsy at all.

  • Great for a first Android phone. I pop in my Google account and everything syncs.

  • I was loking for cheap qwerty 3G phone - here is it ^^

  • It a Cloudfone Temptation in the Philippines.

  • This is my phone. Amazing! But really need an upgrade for the OS Froyo to Gingerbread pls pls pls! :DDDDD

  • Hi guys! Do you know where i can buy accessories for this phone? I'm from Philippines. Thanks! :)

  • Manual location:

  • This Phone is Quite Awesome, For the Price, is an affordable smartphone. The Processor is quite slow, but after you root your phone, and you add clockworkmod recovery on it, and after that try to delete/clean data/reset factory from clockworkmod (not from settings) After boot up, try the difference, it's more responsive that before, you also can try to use SetCPU, set 320-600 or 480-600, governor : Performance.

  • this unit is also known as cloud fone temptation.

  • Where can i find a User Manual for the U8350, plz???

  • its made in china, what else is new? all things now are made in china.....

  • Made by China.., Chinese company...

  • there is a list of Huawei service center in the package box... you can look up the address there... or go to facebook and search for "huawei Malaysia" or "huawei MY".. then, click on Service Center tab.. :) How much you bought it from Maxis Shop???

  • can U8350 advisable for playing games? What is best to buy? U8350 or U850?

  • got this phone for just under $80 in Indonesia. great bargain !!! say NO to BlackBerry.

  • Such a great phone. 2days and the battery is still 60% ;) How it made possible? Don't install apps such as juice defender, adv. task killer and turn the wifi off when not in use. I love this phone and 5x better than a BB. Trust me on this, I've had 2 BB's and sold them both. :-)

  • this is a decent all-around phone. very loud loudspeaker. go for it!

  • i have this phone. but it only have 181mb RAM and 1100mah battery.. :(

  • it is an android.. so, it can access pdf...

  • yes. it can open pdf files.

  • by document viewer, is it able to open pdf files?

  • I experienced lagging while using the hardware keyboard. I had installed tons of applications so I can't really say which one is the culprit. So, I did a master reset and it worked flawlessly since. no lag in typing. smooth interface/speed and good battery life. so for those having issues, maybe you should choose wisely what applications you install from the Market. Loving it right now. :)

  • This definitely it's a smartphone and the Nokia asha is a dumb phone

  • an android phone with both touch screen and QWERTY keypad, thats what I was looking for and I am impressed! The phone is far superior than phones priced twice of its price. If your budget is low, you looking for an android phone, don't give a second thought, huawei u8350 is a winner!

  • go for huawei android my dear....

  • hey im thinking of getting this phone or the nokia 303 asha. Any advice?

  • well if you really want BBM then i would suggest the blackberry but if not i would go with the Hauwei. I had the same exact decision to make so I talked to some of my friends who have the curve 9300 and they were'nt thrilled. Also they said it was pretty much the crappiest blackberry out there. The hauwei is powered by android which is great. I personally am choosing the Hauwei cuz the price is great and later on i am gonna get an iphone, not BB. Hope this helped :)

  • i bought this phone... I installed an app that called "SystemPanel"... i looked at phone specification in in it... The processor speed showed 600mhz..but in gsmarena is 528mhz... Which one is correct? in GSMARENA or my phone?

  • Highly Recommended Phone ;)

  • how can i have my connection in this fone u8350? help me pls

  • how do i sync with my computer???

  • IMO its a GREAT android mobile phone!!! better than blackberry...

  • Thus anyone here knows that this phone is compatible with viber? Pls response. Thanks

  • huawei ofcurse!!!!

  • I love my boulder... Its a great phone... Huawei rules

  • if u want more battery back up, just turn off the mobile data (found at the upper left of the screen), and force stop the advance task killer....thats all!!! happy texting.....

  • yes the battery is disgusting...

  • Great phone, no questions asked.

  • yeah me too, the battery back up is now ok. it can last upto 3 days...what did you do? mine i just press the on/off botton, and i select the restart...(to close all application), and all of a sudden the battery back up improves...

  • I love this phone, at first I am disappointed with the battery. But now everything is fine, just a bit of juice defender and boom a great phone!!!

  • now.... i love it all even the battery!!!!!!!!

  • I LOVE IT!!! except for the battery...........=)

  • i love this phone! Got it from globe. GO SMS Pro appn is very useful, your fb messages go to your inbox like a text message (when online). It's just that the battery doesn't last 24hrs..

  • got the unit from globe!!!! i like it!!! if battery back up is your concern, go to citylight celphones they are the distributor of parts and batteries in the philippines....nice phone but the only problem is the battery drains sooo fast., anyway its acceptable, its an android mobile....and its like having an iphone4s w/c the battery drains soooo fast also...=)

  • Huawei U8350 or blackberry curve 9300???? PLZ HELP!!!

  • nice phone except for youtube streaming and some applications are viewed sideways... avast, advance task killer works perfect... don't expect too much cause it's a cheap android phone but I like how it performs ..

  • Dont buy it , it is only good for music , texting and web browsing.

  • Got this phone from Globe Philippines. Nice phone everything is cool except for the android, it keeps popping up application from time to time even if your wi-fi is connected or not. May this is the reason why the battery drains so fast and last for 1 day only, it keeps running unwanted apps. I see the reason why nokia didnt jump to android, apps are annoying with no dedicated close command.

  • Yes....

  • I already bought this phone last week... The battery last for 1 day 18hours using Juice Defender. Warning!! This phone is NOT for GAMING because it's processor is too slow with game.. The camera is average but i think Samsung Corby ii's camera is much better(2mp).. The screen: you need to apply the screen protector coz it is too sensitive.. Touch-screen response is responsive... This phone is good for messaging, wifi and music player... that's all from me... thanks for reading!

  • blackberry....

  • can we compare this to blackberry curve 8520? w/c one will you choose?

  • The phone is very interesting and better than the one i had previously but it is not compatible with everdroid.com and so i cannot synchronize the phone contacts. The internet is slow at times. I tried to download some games and i was told that they are not for this phone.

  • Can it run 1.avast anti virus 2.Skype for Android 3.advanced task killer all at the same time

  • in Turkey this device known as General Mobile Fox. İ've been using it since october. It is really handy phone good for messaging. but the biggest problem of this phone is it really sucks on gamaing and videoplayer oerformance because cpu is weak.I can't find costum rooms for it. I'm thinking to buy samsung galaxy y.

  • Can it run Skype , anti virus and a task killer ?

  • where in the Philippines store i can buy this except for globe????

  • nice phone.....

  • alright, thanks for your opinion... you think, should i buy it or not? i just want to use it as music player, wifi, sms and calling... calling is not too often but just sms and wifi..

  • I own many phone including Xperia x10, atrix, HD2 and oddly enough i also happen to have a u8350 just because it was cheap and it has a key pad (easy to text without looking and which non of my phone did). obviously it is in no comparison to the other smartphone but with the price and the cheap spec its surprisingly smooth for light usage like text, facebook, email, calendar and phone calls. For me one thing that bothers me the most is it lags when i type but the UI is tweaked and is surprisingly smooth (with all effects turned off). on last things is its got good battery life with JUST wifi on (not data) without wifi i can last 1.5 to 2 days (3days max)so get it if you gonna use it lightly especially if you use it for text and call only its fine!!!

  • This phone is good or not? can someone tell me, should i buy it or not? if it is ok, i gonna buy it next week...

  • Also known as Globe Cloudfone in the Philippines.

  • can i ask of the internal memory...how many mb. i want to know...galaxy y has just 180 mb poor... tnx

  • Just add widget, FANCY widgets 4x2

  • It overheats... battery drains fast.. and it's brand-new... what's happening?????

  • i drag my clock skin to trash can..and i did not see anymore..can u pls help me..jven(phil.)

  • Does the battery performs good..

  • Good phone. I have underestimated its capabilities and features and so far, this phone is really good unit to have. Some comments: (1) Battery, need to be practical in using the phone's apps and features so as not to quickly drain the battery. Had to charge every night. Also, no available spare battery in the market (HB5I1) (2) Glass display is scratch prone. Need to put protective film immediately at first use. Do not use scotch tape to clean the screen's glass as the surface coating seem to peel off. (3) Ampersand symbol missing. Could not be used/hard to find from available apps. Wish there is a way to type this in. I understand the Ampersand symbol is a special hot symbol in Android programming.

  • This phone is awesome! Like you can install apps in SD... Froyo is still the best Android OS out there

  • hmm so i wonder what the orange barcelona is? answer, its a rock

  • what's the default phone lock code for this unit? need answer pls...

  • pls help, i cant unlocked the cp anymore. the phone will not accept/ sync my gmail account..sad to hear that the software is not yet available here in cebu..anyone???

  • owner in canada with wind mobile. i want ics on this. thanks

  • can i play tongits in huawie u8350?

  • How can I sign in to access the android market? Please help. Got the phone from Globe (Philippines).

  • i have this one.. its really good.. battery HARD!!

  • how long is the battery life? and is it possible to change the battery like does it have the same battery size as nokia, samsung, etc?

  • i cant access my internet browser.. can someone help me.?

  • i've been using the fone for 2 weeks now. got it @ globe tipidplan 500. so far so good. nice touch on the qwerty keys. it accomodates my pudgy fingers. relatively better keys imo than bb. i've been downloading apps and i don't have problems with it. crisp voice on the calls. zero drop rate. nice touchscreen, very sensitive. :-) i just don't like the battery life. i have to charge it at 9pm. it's drained by the. i'm a moderate user. can the os be upgraded? if yes, how? tia

  • Got the phone last Sunday from Globe. Now, I need to know where to download the PC Suite since I have my contacts in Outlook.

  • Got mine fron globe (phil.). can anyone help me? i downloaded free themes from the net but cannot change the themes of my phone.

  • We have the same problem..

  • i got mine from globe. spec says it has 512 mb rom, 256 mb ram but it seems really slow for me. is there anyway to make it work faster? any upgrade perhaps? also everytime i download apps a "low memmory" notification always pops up. is there a way to store all apps on the sd card? thanks.

  • Samsung Galaxy Young is way better! It's features, design and performance.

  • compared to samsung galaxy pro?which better?

  • depends on your needs... if you're into texting this fone is better, but if you're into gaming, galaxy y has an edge because of its wider screen and faster processor plus it's on gingerbread. about the display, boulder is way better, denser ppi.

  • which fon is better, huawei u8350 boulder or samsung galaxy y?please help me

  • In my opinion, this phone has been EXCELLENT. I have zero trouble with signal, and the calls don't drop unless I actually leave the coverage area. The screen is clear, the color is very good, and the touch is just as sensitive as the iPhone. It's packed with features and, if you ask me, it rivals the best Blackberry devices that would cost you 3x the price.

  • i got mine from globe (phils) family combo plan, could this be upgraded to gingerbread? if ever possible, how? thanks in advance.

  • poor battery life!

  • poor reception I have a 50% call fail rate when i'm at home its right on the edge. I surveyed my house over three floors with an LG rumor (plain jane) from Bell and the 8350 carried side by side. The LG never showed less than two bars even in the basement, while the Huawei tetered between no signal strength showing but sometimes calls would complete (50%) to no network status even on the main floor. I had to go to my bedroom window on top floor to see two bars and have it work reliably. Too bad otherwise good features and function (for someone with limited exposure to android)

  • just a day, half on heavy use

  • How to prolong battery usage? It does not last for 24 hrs.

  • Once more, fail to understand element in looking the phone.

  • thats why its called "rebranded" SMART does it too with the ZTE Blade - rebranding it as SMART Netphone. Network carriers may opt to personalize the phone (including software most of the time) and come up with their version of an existing product.

  • great!its different!

  • NO! ;)

  • does it have internal storage like ideos u1850 200mb storage.

  • This is what i have been waiting for. I love it. THANKS

  • which is better this phone or samsung galaxy Y?please help me

  • which is better, this phone or Samsung Galaxy Y? what can you say about the case of this phone?

  • You can give mo your number ill hlp you with your globe postpaid application ^_^

  • i want to have this one. i am planning to buy this tomorrow.

  • where could i buy this here in the phils? got an account in globe telecom now and i have exceeded number of lines i can have.. pls help?

  • i love the design of this phone. the features and the camera >>>>>>>>:)

  • I was the first to comment asking if USB tethering is possible. Since then i've purchased one. Just bought it, yes USB tethering is possible and so is portable hotspot. It seems kinda fast scrolling through homescreens and the menu. The default browser is laggy as hell but Opera seems to works perfect on it with smooth scrolling and pinch-to-zoom. Very satisfied with it but the screen resolution of 320x240 will put off many because the text seems pixelated. It seems to have very cheap feature phone kinda screen with very bad angles. Then again it's very cheap so still no regrets. I only wished the speaker was louder because volume seems to be inconsistent and also the vibration is very weak. I've missed alot of calls and also SMS because of the weak speaker and vibration. Overall i'll give it a 7 over 10 for it's price but compared to my Nexus S(which is extremely unfair), it's like 2 over 10. I'll choose this anyday over, say, Galaxy Mini because it has hardware QWERTY keys but almost the same spec.
