Installing ClockworkMod on the Huawei U8800 / Ideos X5

ClockworkMod is a must for anyone running an Android Powered Phone or Tablet. Its a great safety net for when you start Installing Custom ROMs and/or Themes.

ClockworkMod allows you to:

Install Custom ROMs and Themes (from .zip files)Wipe Data / Factory ResetWipe Cache PartitionBackup and Restore Current Partitions (ROM)Clear Battery StatsWipe Dalvik CachePartition SD CardFix File Permissions

Once installed ClockworkMod instantly adds the above features to your device, which to me are essential.

Installing ClockworkMod on the Huawei U8800 / Ideos X5:

Download ClockworkMod Recovery 4.0.0.5 – Download Here.Power on your U8800 while holding the VOL+ and VOL- buttons, your screen should turn Pink or Similar Colour.Plug the phone into your computer, after a minute or so you should see a new disk drive in My Computer.Browse the new disk drive on your computer and look for a file called recovery.img, you need to back this up to a safe place.Extract the new recovery.img file you downloaded in the first step and replace the existing one which you have found.Once complete you will need to remove the battery from your phone to turn it off.Congratulations you should now have ClockworkMod installed on your Huawei U8800 / Ideos X5, to load ClockworkMod you simply need to hold VOL+ while powering on the phone.

The first thing I would do in ClockworkMod is create a backup (you need an SD Card for this) then exit ClockworkMod, your phone will load as normal.

You now have the freedom to install Custom ROMs and Themes, just remember to backup in ClockworkMod before installing anything new.
