Force upgrade (Extracted from Huawei Guide)
Step 1. A MICRO SD card of 1GB or more should be available. The MICRO SD card made by Sandisk, Kingstone, or Kingmax is recommended.
Step 2. Format the MICRO SD card (This operation is optional).
Step 3. Copy the Software: main package to a directory named dload.
Step 4. Copy the entire dload folder (with UPDATE.APP in it) to the root directory of the MICRO SD card.
Step 5. Make sure your handset is power off. Insert the MICRO SD card into the handset. Press the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN key, and then press the POWER key to power on the phone and enter the Software Upgrade Mode.
Step 6. When the progress bar stop, the phone will restart, if not , you need to remove the battery manually.
Step 7. Copy the Software: vendor package to a directory named dload. Then Execute Step 4 – Step6 repeatedly. (Product line should skip this step.)

1 package update ok. 2nd package after update it won't auto restart, have to pull battery. 2nd update puts the quick shortcuts back to the pull down bar, and removes the camera app which is present in the 1st package, so recommend that you install the 2nd package.
