[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stephen304:
So I read about S-OFF and I can gather that it has something to do with unlocking the bootloader. I'm a little confused since I just went to the HTC website and did the official unlock steps, I'm now rooted with clockworkmod CM10.2, and my bootloader is S-ON.

Basically, I never did S-OFF so I'm confused about why it's so important and why didn't I have to do it?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jags_the1:
Its not important at all
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] criszz:
With S-off you can flash everything you want on your phone . Downgrade is a most comun reason.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] santod040:
Some carriers are the only users option in their area.

Like for me, that carrier would be Verizon. They have great coverage.

But they also happen to be evil and had HTC block our HTC One's MID from being able to use the HTC Bootloader Unlock bin file.

It will fail the initial checks after getting the token from you.

We also have the 1.54 hboot as stock, so there is no using moonshine, or facepalm, or any other previous method as of yet.

So in order for poor folks with carriers that strongarm smaller companies like HTC into doing things against their wishes and our wishes,

S-off allows us to then change CID,MID, etc,...as well as then go and unlock the bootloader as we should be able to do by choice.

That's why they built it and added in a warranty void warning, so we could make that choice if we so choose.

Anyway, that should make it more clear to you now at least, sorry for the extra carrier rant, lol. :)

Plus the obvious other advantages of flashing radios, kernels, etc,...without doing fastboot.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stephen304:
Ah okay. So S-off does similar to the HTCDev unlock? If I used S-Off instead could I get rid of the ugly warning text on boot?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] criszz:
Htc dev unlock only needed partitions. S-off unlock ALL

Sent from my HTC 802w
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlevy73:
Yes you could get ride of the warning text with s-off, with s-on you cannot.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shan89:
Everything what's said above + more , for example if htc one windows version ever gets ported s-off users can have it , we can also convert our device into ge edition / dev edition / flash whatever comes thru your mind , even splash screens , use modified bootloaders , we can also unlock bootloader without need of HTC official unlock process , we can lock it as well ( s-on can only relock it ) we can also completely hide we ever were rooted / unlocked for warranty reasons while s-on can't.

We can also use super cid which allows us to flash any ruu or use any region / carrier roms.

We can also downgrade bootloader or flash any other.

That's mainly it , also for example us with s-off have writeable partitions while for example s-on users still don't on 3.22 base.

And at the end maybe a good thing for you and some less advanced or less knowledgeable ppl s-on is a good thing since with s-on phone is practically indestructible software-wise , while with s-off small mistake even in fastboot could brick the device.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theshawty:
With the HTC One, you can flash radios and kernels in the recovery if you unlock the bootloader...

>> Sent from the abyss <<
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ciebiada:
To get official OTA with updates to firmware, hboot and everything you have to get them from your carrier, and this depends on your CID. You cannot change this on S-ON. So basically your are bound to your carrier for life, they may but also may not release updates (like for ex. carriers in USA skipped 4.2 if I am not mistaken). You can of course flash custom ROM using dev unlock, but it won't update the firmware.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stephen304:
Ah okay thanks for the info! I have one more question about S-OFF if you don't mind: If I S-OFF and disable the red warning (flashing an unsigned fw), then S-ON again, would the warning come back?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] criszz:
If you do s-on with modified hboot will result an instant and forever brick. Dont do that.

[HTC Droid DNA] Khalil_y:
The battery used to run flawlessly since I got the phone 8 months ago, I got an average of 12 hrs of battery life. Suddenly a week ago my battery did not last more than 5 hours for some reason, even when I'm at work and it would be on idle for about 8 hours and ends up at 40-30%. I tried killing apps (never did before) and restarted the phone and all. I don't know what's wrong. I really don't want to reset the phone.

Does anyone have a similar issue or a solution to this?
[HTC Droid DNA] ricecake2000:
I would probably just reset the phone and don't download any apps for a few days to see if it was a rogue app.

Also is it in a case and getting hot? My friends s3 was in a case and pocket and would get too hot and die fast. Also the hot phone caused a crack in his screen from a 1 foot drop.

Nope the phone does not get hot at all, it stays at the same yet cool idle temperature.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] sunseaker:
My two K-Jams also come up with the same message every now and again. Can't figure it out.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Puckster:
This is a "feature" :? of Windows Media Player.

When WMP detects an Storage Card inserted it will prompt to search it for media files to add to the playlist. This would also apply to people that have disapearing storage card issues as soon as the storage card reappears. Also, some cards may be slightly loose which causes the card to momentarilly turn off and on again.

As Windows Mobile 5.0 only minimises programs instead of closing them, its likely WMP has played a file recently and as it is still open but minimised. This makes it seem as if WMP is actually being opened and the nessage pops up. If you close WMP properly after use each time with the inbuilt memeory / task manager or other task manager app you should find you never see the message again. I think (but not sure) that if you let WMP do the search once it may not come back again either. I don't use WMP very often so have never let it search though.

I have tested this by having WMP as the active application and eject and reinsert the MiniSD and the message pops up every time however once WMP is closed i can take the MiniSD card out and put it back with no message.

Cheers,

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] afff53:
Recently, I have not been able to get my Nexus 4 to show up in my computer. I am able to use ADB and the drivers work fine, but when I connect my Nexus 4 it will not install the drivers for MTP. Rather, it will say it has the correct drivers installed, but it cannot start (Code: 10) and the icon for the device has a yellow exlamation mark next to it. I tried switching it between MTP and PTP as well as enabling and disabling USB Debugging, but it wont show up. Next, I decided to try to switch ROMS, as well as uninstall and re install all the drivers for the phone. No matter what I do I am able to connect to the phone through ADB, but MTP will give me the same error over again. Even on PTP my PC wont install the drivers for the phone.

I have looked through numerous threads and tried all kinds of solutions people have suggested, but none of them have worked for me. I've even tried switching between USB ports, cords, and computers (32 bit, 64 bit) and have tried plugging it into a new computer which i have never plugged the phone into, and nothing at all will work.

I am really at a loss here as I have spent many hours going through the solutions posted on these forums and others. I use USB for backing up my device as well as adding files etc. , and I dont want to do anything with my phone without being able to connect to it by USB at the very least. Airdroid will work as a temp. solution but it is way too slow when i transfer bigger files. My Nexus has worked fine with MTP since I bought 3 months ago, and even after rooting and updating the MTP has still worked regardless. I am running Windows 7 ultimate 64 bit, and my phone is on 4.3.

To anyone who will tell me to look on other threads I realize there are a ton of them out there, but I have tried using so many of the methods described, and none of them have worked.

Is there anyone that can help me with this problem? My phone is having issues and I need to backup up my stuff so I can flash to stock, factory wipe, etc.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
What rom and kernel are you running? Have you tried on stock firmware and stock kernel, with USB Debugging turned off? It sounds like an issue with the software in your phone.

Also when you connected your device, look in Device Manager and tell me the exact name listed for your Nexus 4, it should be saying "Nexus 4" or "Google Nexus 4 ADB Interface".

You can back up your files through adb: adb pull /sdcard/ C:\backup\

Instead of AirDroid you can try WorkGroup/Samba sharing. Enable a Workgroup shared folder on your PC then use ES File Explorer to access it and transfer file that way.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] afff53:
Here is my system info:

View attachment 2294132

I have tried enabling and disabling debugging but it doesn't make much of a difference. It'll show up as MTP USB Device under portable devices with a yellow exclamation mark next to it, as well as Google ADB Interface Device under Android Device. Sometimes it will show up in Other Devices as Nexus 4, but then it install the drivers for ADB and it goes away.

I have also tried getting it to connect with AOKP milestone 2 (4.2.2) and the latest version of Carbon ROM which was also 4.2.2. I had Franco.kernel installed on both of these. The only thing I haven't done is a factory reset of all my data or flash back to stock rom.

Thanks for the backup tips I'll try those to see if I can get everything off it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
Try uninstalling the driver, select the checkbox option to delete the files as well. Then reconnect it while in ADB mode and use the Universal Naked Driver: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2263822

Also this will sound strange, but on your Pc, go into "Disk Manager" and make sure there are no blank partition or disk that might vaguely resemble your device. If there is one and without a driver letter, assign to it any drive letter.

Make sure there aren't conflicting ADB or USB drivers from other Android device, if there are, remove them.

Try live booting into Ubuntu 13.10, if it still can't copy your files, the phone is the problem.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
Microsoft's MTP is a ****ty protocol, that's just my opinion.

The new files won't show up if it's not been read by the Media Server (I think), you have to do a media scan and replug the phone. If you still don't see it, just reboot the phone and let it scan the files for a few seconds before plugin it in. You should be able to move any files to the phone, just ignore the warning if it say the file might be incompatible.

Hello everyone, this is my first post. So recently I have been having a certain issue concerning my lockscreen bothering me. It really isn't a deal breaker, but it messes with my OCD. So at random times, the lock and message (life companion) on my lock screen shrink as shown in the attached image. It does not seem to do anything except for bother me. The lock screen does this unpredictably, but it does not do it often. I have tried a hard reset a few times and it does not fix it. It even fixes itself after a once again, random amount of time. I am not rooted, I use basic touchwiz, basically its how I got it out of the box with some games I installed through humble bundle. Any ideas?

It's a TW bug. It can also happen with the unlock "pad lock" icon that appears on the lock screen if you have no unlock effect enabled. It doesn't affect function and a restart fixes it. Happens to me maybe twice a month. Maybe it'll be squashed with the next official release. No biggie.
