THIS OTA is safe to take. Others in the future may not be. I did exactly as you describe when I got my phone back from Sonic. After taking the OTA I installed TWRP and Super SU and deleted bloat. Running complete stock minus bloat right now.

I used beaups method, already s-off with TWRP and Super SU, can I still take the OTA?

Install TWRP recovery: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2416431

Make sure USB Debug mode is enabled

download the modified OTAPkg.zip from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2465774

copy the modified OTAPkg file to your sd card: adb push modified_OTAPkg.zip /sdcard/

extract the zip locally on your computer: C:\OTAPkg\ or linux /tmp/OTAPkg/

go into the local OTA directory in your terminal

reboot into TWRP: adb reboot recovery

flash the modified_OTAPkg.zip (you will probably see an error about an unknown firmware command)

reboot into fastboot: adb reboot bootloader

once that is loaded: fastboot oem rebootRUU

erase cache: fastboot erase cache

flash firmware.zip from the modified_OTAPkg.zip you extracted locally: fastboot flash zip firmware.zip

if you get an error during this step, erase cache again and reflash firmware.zip

reboot (if it doesnt automagically): fastboot reboot

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Robertjm:
OTA update safe for rooted Stock ROM??

I woke up this morning to see the message "firmware update downloading" on my S-off rooted stock HTC One, and my heart skipped a beat. There didn't seem to be a way to abort the download, so it finished downloading. But, then it asked me if I wanted to install it? I told it to install later, but didn't check the "install automatically" checkbox, so I'm assuming I will get a prompt at 8pm tonight on whether I want to install it, or not.

My question is this. Since I'm stock, with the exception of S-Off and the modified Google Wallet (which I detached from Market via Titanium Backup), will I be able to take this "compatibility" update?

Before asking I did a quite search. However, I don't see any people commenting that it screwed up their rooted devices, though I also didn't see anyone commenting that they took it successfully either. Hence the reason I'm asking.

Later,

Robert
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] santod040:
This particular update is safe to take, you will need to flash a custom recovery and supersu again afterwords to regain root.

It will not install successfully with a custom recovery installed. So you would need to flash a stock recovery before accepting it if you have a custom one now.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Robertjm:
GRRRRR!!!

I've got CWM 6.0.4.4 installed.

Not sure I have a stock recovery to reflash, and I've seen comments that you need to do a reset if you do it, so not feeling the pressing need to do that right now.

Thanks for the quick update.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] monster:
Hi,

I have connected my KJam to my car stereo via a cable from the 2.5mm jack to the aux port of my car stereo. Tom Tom voice and phone calls are routed through my car stereo. Sometimes, the microphone will not work when I take a call. I can hear the caller perfectly but they can't hear me. Other times, the phone functionality works perfectly and we can both hear each other great.

If anyone can suggest any ideas, I would be very grateful.

Thanks
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] thereaperman:
if your using a jack to connect it to your car, then its will prob. stop the mic working as its routing the audio to you car in the same way the headset with mic that you got with the k-jam does. I had this problem on mine, but due to the fact that i use a bluetooth neadset in the car fixed that little problem 8)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] gazzrenn:
That's the end of my k-jam desires then.

I use my MDA compact in the same way you describe, for TomTom, Hands free calling and to play my music through.... and my microphone works fine with the headphone jack in.

I guess one thing to check would be the number of rings on your 2.5mm jack. If you have 3 then theres a possibility the k-jam thinks you have a mic on the end of the wire. If you have 2 rings (normal stereo headphones) then there must be another issue somewhere.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] monster:
thanks for your replies. My concern was around the fact that sometimes the microphone works and sometimes not. I wonder if there is a workaround or a specific type of cable that I need to ensure that only the audio is routed and not the mic as well.

Thanks for all your help.l
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Speedn:
never tried this myself, so i can only assume it would work. you could hack a cheap wired headset up, removing the earpieces but leaving the microphone. then add a stereo 3.5 plug so you can hook it up to your car stereo.

SpeedN
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] gazzrenn:
I have that very problem also, it's gotten that annoying that i've stopped using it through my stereo. you are able to get around it by popping the cable out of the kjam, then putting it back in.

pain in the ass though none the less.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] jlitjens:
Hey all,

Just wondering if anyone has had any success in fixing this problem? I am having the same issue. I have a 2 ring 2.5-3.5mm adapter connected (so it should only be routing the audio, not the mic) and sometimes the caller can hear me, sometimes not. At one stage I found by unplugging the cable, setting to speakerphone, then unsetting speakerphone and plugging the cable back in would get it to work, but not anymore...

Any ideas?!?! I love my XDAII mini but this is driving me up the wall!

Cheers,

So if you can write down all info from bootloader, describe what you have tried in detail, read a few of the many many threads about bricked phones and post question in a relevant thread rather than creating yet another, when all solar questions are in similar threads there is far less for others to sift through to find answers to their dilemmas

There is a thread specifically devoted to bricked phones in that link, how to troubleshoot and how to ask for help

Let my ask one more question: is there is any way to use ADB on my phone? Reboot in ADB Mode or sth?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
It looks like you're right there, that was never released as an ruu, but if my memory serves me correctly, without super CID you can only flash newer RUUs anyway, your phone won't take an update unless its newer, not older or even the same.

This means there is no newer ruu and less likely a chance to resurrect your phone.

adb is a bridge between phone and PC and is to be used when booted to os, or custom recovery. Being you can't do either you can't use adb.

You will need:

- apktool

- notepad++

- 7zip

- framework-res.apk from the ROM you're using

1) Install framework-res.apk;

2) Decompile it;

3) Navigate to /framework-res/res/values/ and open styles.xml

​

Search for:

<item name="colorBackground">@color/[B]background_dark[/B]</item>

and change it with:

<item name="colorBackground">@color/[COLOR="red"][B]transparent[/B][/COLOR]</item>

Search for:

<item name="windowBackground">@drawable/[B]screen_background_selector_dark[/B]</item>

and change it with:

<item name="windowBackground">@drawable/[COLOR="red"][B]nameofbackground[/B][/COLOR]</item>

4) Prepare a background (

nameofbackground.png

) (512x512 or 800x1280) and add it to framework-res/res/drawable-nodpi

​

5) Recompile back and ... done!

You want Nova Background I prepared so far from this small picture?

Wish there was something like this on Amazon for overnight shipment.
[G2 Accessories] IronCatalyst:
interesting, output from 450 ~ 2100 mA, our original charger using 1.6 A.

how to measure the output then if the output constantly change it will destroy the battery life isnt it
[G2 Accessories] DeaconBoogie:
I believe the output is determined by the operating mode of the charger... If it's in Apple/Samsung mode, you get higher output, and USB passthrough gives standard 500ma.

This basically will let you "fast charge" from any standard USB port. We'll see! I bought one.
[G2 Accessories] deadsea:
It shouldn't be possible, since the standard usb 2 port has a max current draw of 500mA and usb 3 at 900/950?mA. Any higher and the laptop shuts down the usb port to prevent damage.

But since you're testing, please record the charge times rather than depend on the AC charging symbol. I believe that can be faked with a simple pin short. But I'd love to be wrong, much more convenient to bring that around the area offices than a proper charger.

No problem!

Negri has stated that it is the same phone that you can buy in the store. So yes it is bootloader unlocked. There is a 25 day return policy. I'm using squaretrade. Squaretrade is cheaper but will only fix your phone up to the value of your policy so if you have multiple failures then they will not pay over the value of the policy.
