[One (M7) General] MegaMan X:
I was wondering if anybody would be interested in pooling money together to buy a HTC Javacard?

Like what this gentleman did here in the Verizon HTC One Forum:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2427960

I can secure a deal to get a HTC Javacard for $700 / 500 Credits.

2 Credit = S-Off

1 Credit = Sim unlock

I'm hoping to get anywhere between 7 to 10 individuals to pool into this.

The javacard can s-off any hboot version as well as perform SIM unlocks.
[One (M7) General] godutch:
Are these javacards device specific? If they are not it might be worth asking on the international one x forum too. Also were are you located....
[One (M7) General] Zarboz:
I'll buy one flat out at that rate pm me
[One (M7) General] MegaMan X:
Located in United States, Southern California (San Gabriel Valley).

And these Javacards are not device specific. As long as you have the right diag files, they work on any HTC Phone. However, I don't own a One X, so I have no interest in going to that device forum.

To be honest, I only need to use it one time, then I'm willing to send the HTC Javacard dongle to the next individual to use and so forth.

If I can get 10 individuals, it's only $70 a person. Or if someone wants to chip in more, that's fine too. I'm sure you can end up making lots of money off of it by having people pay you to s-off their phone.
[One (M7) General] Theshawty:
Southern Cali? Great. Just about a million miles from where I live, lol. :p
[One (M7) General] maarawoe:
I would be in but Californa is a nearly one light year from here...

How would it work? - you would send the card to each person who would unlock his phone and pass the card to next one?
[One (M7) General] Theshawty:
I'm pretty sure the phones go to him.

>> Sent from the abyss <<
[One (M7) General] maarawoe:
That's make no sense - it's much faster,secure,cheaper,easier etc. to send an envelope with the card which cost 70usd each person than sending a 700usd phones around the world.... Moreover when there is such chance I'd like a hands on experience with such card... :)

[One (M7) General] dirtbikerr450:
The card actually costs around $1000
[One (M7) General] danlat1415:
It's a good idea, but it's based on trust.

You have to trust each person to post it on.

It also means the 10th person gets to keep a $1000 piece of kit for just $70.

Much safer to find a shop that has one and post your device to then.

Think foneshop on forum does the s-off with javacard for a fee.

Would also be an idea to create a STICKY on the forum that lists all the javacard s-off suppliers.

You can then see who is most local and give feedback on the forum.
[One (M7) General] maarawoe:
1000usd / 10 people means that in case something happens everyone looses only 100usd what is an acceptable risk (for me) than loosing my phone. Yes - it's based on trust but it's pointless to undergo a bigger risk than necessary when there is a much comfortable way how to do that. Also sending my phone from Europe to USA and back means no phone for several weeks what is not acceptable as I have no replacement phone for this one I am using for work...

[One (M7) General] danlat1415:
Like I said, shop around.

There are already companies offering the s-off service all round the world there are closer ones to you than US.

There are some in Europe. Just read the other s-off topics on the forum, they mention a few.

A lot less risk sending your phone to a genuine company that finding 10 gullable strangers to risk $100 each for something they may brick their devices if done wrong or damaging the device or someone running off with the money or device.

I am currently on PA 3.68 and was on Omega for short time and before that I was on Viking.

Can anyone suggest a good ROM at present. On PA 3.68 , my battery is draining a lot faster. I tried to find if any application is consuming , but it seems its not the case.

So please suggest a stable , faster and better battery ROM.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
'Which rom' threads are against the rules, try some yourself but don't share the results please.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangerX:
Yup , first decide which one you want for yourself , a aosp or sammy base ROM.

Despicable me Minion Rush Lags a lot in SIII

Even i want a ROM which consumes less battery, currently on Omega ROM 4.1.2, has average battery drain but lags a lot when i play Despicable me Minion Rush game, I know the game has pretty high end graphics but my friend can play this game without any lags in his Galaxy SII, if a galaxy SII can play this game without any lags why cant SIII, Please someone suggest me a ROM which has good graphics performance with less to moderate battery consumption. P.s I never turned on Power saving mode while playing the game so my phone is functioning with 4 cores al the time.

I am thinking of opting to Liquid smooth ROM ...which is very less in size around 120MB ..whats your suggestion guys.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naveen_reloaded:
With all due respect , Asking fellow users which rom they use and which they feel or suggest to others is unreasonable ?

Not many have the time to check multiple ROMs and come to a conclusion.

It takes atleast a week to settle with a new rom . Apart from this configuring each app , etc will take loads of time.

I tried three roms , all different ones , but cant able to find a good rom whcih has good battery , or faster ROM.

If you think , you can suggest , please do .

If mods feel this is against rule , please help me and fellow members who need some kind of pathway to get good ROM. Tried and tested ones.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
I'm afraid so. So many people ask the same question, the rule is to stop the forum being drowned in these thread. There is no real answer anyway, other than go back to stock and disable all the bloat.

All that will happen now is that this thread will get locked by a mod.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrismast:
look at the popularity of the rom's threads in the dev section and you will have a direction on which rom is most popular / most used.

battery, speed etc. depends on your usage, hence there is NO way we can tell you what is best for YOU.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naveen_reloaded:
Omega was popular , but i tried 4.2.2 version of its ROM and faced few issues.

I am ready to try new ROM , but there are multiple ROM`s now , so among them , i dont know which one to pick.

Of course its hard to say which is better , atleast some user feedback would be good.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrismast:
read the respective rom's threads (start with the most popular once, here you can look for instance at how often updated, how many posts in total etc.), tons of user feedback and after that you can decide by yourself.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naveen_reloaded:
ok will try... :(
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killbubble:
Yeah it kinda sucks that best rom threads are against the rules but since most roms are published in xda noone want to create controversy directly IN xda.

Anyways i will answer cause i dont really care and cause that's what people that have the same phone do: give each other suggestions about software.

So.

first off i will state it's best you do NOT use aosp roms, they tend to drain your battery much quicker than samsung ("sammy") based ones. and samsung based ones are more stable.

secondly i suggest you do not flash any 4.2.2 roms yet, and definitely not any 4.3 roms.

Thirdly i will suggest probably one of the most popular roms for s3 (also the one i think is the best. And the one which sure has a higher costumizability rate than any other) because i like it, because it consumes significatively less battery thank my stock rom, because it's cool with all it's customizations: foxhound.

Like i said best rom threads ARE against the rules but im just gonna give my opinion here, so i have to remind you to keep in mind i have only tried a limited amount of roms (7? maybe 10 i dunno...) and my opinions can be very limited do not swear by them.

Not that we got copyright acts out of the way i will tell you i think omega is a good rom but not great. I mean it does everything many other roms do and with not so great performance or battery drainage, but not bad either...lets say its average and very stable and leave it at that.

Also check kernels and cpu governors to tweak performance/battery options.

use apps like greenify to control apps that run in background and apps like 3g watchdog to check apps that download in background and apps like the es system utility thing (it like an addon app to the file browser) that has integrated app startup manager, thats useful too.

But having a fast and stable rom isn't just about choosing the rom or kernel, it's about spending time (a week should be enough) to check it all, get into its nooks and crannies and tweak it everywhere!

Its about checking your battery life, which apps consume battery?

And bam, you find out 10% is consumed by that led color controller app that you dont even use. So delete, disable, kill.

You gotta make the right choices, use the right apps to tweak your system, and uninstall all the useless ones.

Get INTO those settings!

Get INTO dev options and set screen drawing to gpu instead of cpu!

Set animations to 0.5secs instead of 1!

Get INTO that s**t!

This is how you take care of a problem...android is not for iphone users ;)

Use the power your phone really has, the beating heart of unix!

use it!

Manually flash it
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ruud Westerhout:
Hi all,

the question seems simple, but I am unable to solve it, would be very grateful for somebody helping me out.

I have an unlocked HTC One

Bootloader is working, OS is upgraded to 2.24.401.1

Recovery is installed and working TWRP 2.6.1.0

When starting the phone, the system asks to connect to WiFi but does not find a network in the air, hence I am not able to continue that route.

When connecting it to a Windows PC, it is recognized, the usual "drives"are mounted as the drivers are installed.

I see the HTC One but it is read-only and a file cannot be copied to it.

I tried to use the adb push xxxx /storage command but this also says the system is read-only.

I just lack the knowledge on how to continue, I cannot flash a rom as it is not copied to the device.

Please be so kind to guide me in the right direction.

Ruud
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] L0rdNels0n:
When you connect the phone to the PC - the phone will show its connected on the top (notification bar) pull that down and select /USB connected then choose

HTC Sync Manager

Now connect the phone to the pc and it will be seen as a media devise open it and in root copy the rom and anything else you need

leave the phone with that setting then when you need to move photo, music, docs or whatever its is just a matter of finding the correct file and copy/paste
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ruud Westerhout:
Thanks, but your explanation is for normal usage, as said, I had a read-only system, this did not work for me.

I understand that the command adb remount did the trick, after that at least adb was able to do its task.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] farang4u:
Do you have USB debugging mode activated when you connect to a PC?

Also you can adb sideload a rom when you are in recovery.

Thanks farang4u,

As I said, Matt helped me out and the last Wipe Data which I did this morning was also the trick, so now all seem fine with my phone again.

It only takes 5 seconds to remove the back cover and read the model off the dig ribbons. I'm not sure what the hang-up is. Wouldn't that be simpler? Flashing stock firmware doesn't necessarily restore TS firmware.

Dont stress yourself. Its easily fixed. Ill look around for 4822 and report back shortly.

Edit:

Ok im downloading a few roms. Hopefully its in one of those. In the mean time, check in /system/etc/firmware/touch and see if you have a 4822 in there. Also, flashing back to stock will not flash the system firmware for the digitizer daughter board. Go ahead and re-root while im downloading things as well.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pyraxiate:
Ok, looks like there are several other firmware in that folder. Your best bet is to flash them all one by one from your firmware folder until one works after rebooting.

Since there are 3 versions of digitizer, and there are 3 firmwares in the folder, logically one has to work lol

If you cant find them, ill upload them for you. Let me know.

Is it possible to flash this fw without root?

Regards chbg
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pyraxiate:
Ive only flashed from terminal, which required root. You also should be able to run it through adb. All of your stock firmware SHOULD be in /system/etc/firmware/touch and have the extention of .ekt

Change the location to directory of the firmware folder and run the firmware update command directly from there.

For all commands, dont include the quotes. Just type whats between the quotes.

Open terminal and type " su" and hit enter. Superuser should pop up asking to allow permissions if you have never run this command before. If you have, you wont see anything, but you will see " root " on the next line.

Next " cd /system/etc/firmware/touch " and hit enter

Then type " ls " and hit enter. You will see all the firmware available to flash

Finally update your firmware with the update command " touch_fw_update -u /system/etc/firmware/touch/whateverfirmware.ekt " and hit enter. Obviously you change out the whateverfirmware.ekt for the actual name of the file you want to flash.
