[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sopaj96:
Hi, I just got my HTCOne and I want to root it because I want flash a custom rom (ViperOneRom)

But coming from Galaxy S3 this rooting thing with HTCOne makes me all confused... So I have a few questions that I hope you can help me with

1. Do I need to Unlock Bootloader to be able to flash custom roms (or to root)?

2. Can I unroot and get my warranty back? I have seen several videos and tutorials but they get the "relocked" thing in the bootloader and I don´t think the warrenty will be back if thats still there.

3. Is there any easy and safe way to root and unroot the keep my warranty?

4. What is s-off and s-on, what do I need it for and what can I do with it? Do I need to change anything there when I root/unroot? Can it be changed back and forth?

Thanks in advance :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] squabbi:
Hello,

1. Yes, you will need an unlocked bootloader. Also to flash a recovery.

2. You can only get back to 'locked' if you are able to use revone s-off. Otherwise you can relock the bootloader.

3. You can get back to stock, but before flashing a different Rom check if they have an ruu or cwm zip for your device. But you cannot make it seem you haven't unlocked the bootloader without revone.

4. S-Off doesn't root the device. And most of it's features are explained (kinda) above.

5. You can check out my toolkit in my signature below if you would like an easy way of doing all this. :) or try it manually yourself. :)

Hope this helps!! :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arkangel786:
1. Yes

2. Yes, if you're s-off

3. Yes, plenty of tutorials and toolkits available, just search.

4. s-off will allow you to flash firmware, radio, change your CID, change bootloader status etc.

I suggest you read up and familiarise yourself on everything before you root.

Hi, thanks for your reply!

What do you mean with, if you can use s-off? How do I check if I can use it... Can it be done before rooting`?

Can I turn s-off without root? How do I check if its already off?

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] squabbi:
You can use s-off without rooting. Also you can check if you can use it by rebooting into fastboot mode. And looking at the hboot version.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CoryTallman:
If you have hboot 1.44 you can s-off. This means you'll be able to turn off the tampered flag and lock the boot loader. You can also flash any RUU to return to stock. If you're on hboot 1.54 you have to use HTCDev to unlock the boot loader and will only be able to relock it. You will also have to use RUUs that match your CID, and they will need to be the same or newer than your current firmware.

Read up on s-off though, it may sound good, but it also greatly increases your ability to brick the phone.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sopaj96:
My HBoot is version 1.54... Does this mean I am f**ked? No way to root and go back to warranty if I want?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CoryTallman:
Find someone with a java card, or accept the possibility that rooting may void your warranty.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sopaj96:
Javacard people in sweden, Don´t think so :/

Do you think it will be hacked in the near future? ( a year ) if thats the case I could root now... I am not the person that breaks my phone, never have...

What do you think I should do?

There's rumors that the Revolutionary team is making progress on 1.55, but as I said no one can tell you if it's going to happen until it does.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] patrickm823:
So, the 4th or 5th xt897 I have had to get in less than a year took a crap the other day(boot loops no matter how many times I nandroided or RSD'd and cleared everything.). I am so done with this phone, and Motorola in general. I can't wait to be back in Samsung's warm embrace. Sprint it replacing my Photon Q with a new one and I am going to sell it ASAP. Bye guys, it's been fun.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] CornholioGSM:
hmmmm very important info :)

Good luck with samsung...samsung has good processor, dispay etc, but is poorly constructed.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] idimitro:
You either had an extremely bad luck or you were doing something wrong. There are so many guys here with HW modded phones and/or installing custom builds all the time and no problems.

Just food for thought.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] The Solutor:
In another era (was 2003 or so) I had a similar experience with a Treo 650.

The first one was working perfectly but I bricked it (my fault), they replaced it with a refurbished one that was super unstable, then they replaced it again with one with not working usb, then...

It was replaced five times, trading a defect for another.

If you are unlucky with the first one, it's pretty easy to be unlucky with the replacements too.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Replacements are typically refurb's, hence why replacements typically suck.

I ran into this as well, one of the replacement units was DOA. I rose a bit of a stink, and they sent me a brand new device :)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] The Solutor:
I believe that is easier being in the US.

At the time I had to deal with an US company, with an Italian office that decided about RMA, then the phone has to be sent to Czech republic for repairs/replacement, while the Palm call center was located in Ireland.

And was 2003, the US mobile phone market was still in the stone age era.

So I rose a bit too, they sent me a free 128MB SD card, and was a great success, given the scenario....

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] rap6388:
the physical home button was something I did not think would bother me but it is a major design flaw. When putting the device in a case and closing the cover while in sleep mode the cover presses the home button taking a tablet out of sleep mode. so as I carry the tablet the screen turns off and on. this is with a case that uses the four corner tab design. Hopefully, a different case design will solve the issue.

This is the only issue I have had but it is driving me nuts.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] madsquabbles:
hopefully with root we'll be able to disable that. why they chose not to recess the button is beyond me.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] kkretch:
I wonder if a case that activates auto screen off and on blocks that from happening.

it is specific for this device. I could not find them online either but walked into Best Buy and the Sales guy said they just came in the day before
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] atg284:
Thanks for the info...There are two sides to this coin. It could be a design flaw that the case accidentally clicks the home button. Isn't it their responsibility to design the case properly?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] ddavtian:
Note 8 has the same button design, I have it since the release date with Samsung's book cover, it hasn't been a problem. Waiting for a similar case for 10.1.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andro Boy:
Hi guys :) , hope you all good ;)

My question is that i have SGS3 I9300 it comes with 1A charger , but after using custom kernels i saw that u can go over the original 1A current , now i am thinking about buying a new 2A (from Samsung) of course to speed my charge time but i am a little worry here that the phone or the battery can be damaged or reduces the battery life than usual by this, can it ?

if anybody had experience like that or did try it or know anything about it can u please advice me about it ? :confused:

:D

Thanks already :) , and waiting for an answer .

PS: i saw some threads about something close to this but not the same as my statues here so i just wanted to get more information about it .

im using 1.5A Sony charger on my s3 and it seems fine.. not sure about 2A.. :D
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] highwar:
you can use even a 3A chatger but unless you have an app that overwrite the stock option of only charging with max of 1A...it doesnt matter

I use boeffla kernel which has that option and there are other app
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prabhjots:
You can use a higher charging current, but this will be at the cost of overall battery life.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
As mentioned, you'll need to use a custom kernel to allow more power to be drawn.... and when you do this, you'll find you don't even need to change the charger. The supplied charger gives 1000mA because that's all the phone asks for.

It's not safe in the S3 to go above 1470mA

I went today to buy the 2A charger , well i set the phone to 1400mA and tried the 2A charger but the max current the phone could read was 1100mA only !! ,

and i was having problem though with the old charger usb cable (it didn't charge at stable current it changes every time between 100mA to 1000mA) so i preferred to buy another usb cable and test it instead of buying the other one , so i found a cable that was for s4 but it worked fine with me but the weird thing here is that the phone reads 1198mA while charging with the same old one 1A charger !? (with setting the max current in the kernal to 1200mA) , i know it can happen but is it bad for the charger itself ?

stock 4.3 stock kernal
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
The kernel will be modified. By default, samsung kernels and many aosp kernels are set to device default of 1000mA

Your kernel will have to have been modified to higher value which im doubting is the case.

You can confirm what you're drawing with an app from play called "galaxy charging current lite"

Hope someone can help, i tried to upgrade without reading all the info here and the battery died, silly me. I can enter bootloader , save rom to SD, and when re-entering bootloader it will see this rom and and reinstall from it. I need to put a complete new rom on the SD card but every time i try this it doesnt see it within bootloader, do i have it in the wrong format? are there any tips/tricks etc? Ive used XDAtools and XDArit to no avail, the bootloader just wont see the file on there. I'm presuming that i have it in the wrong format somehow.

So as you can see I finally figured out how to get out of the scary Download Mode screen on my gs4. Well I need some help trying to get my recovery back to normal. I tried to install TWRP with Goomanager and it didn't do it correctly or maybe its just me. So after TWRP downloaded I went to go install it and it put me in DL mode. I panicked and thought I bricked my phone and I did power button+volume down+home button and it restarted and booted up Android. Now when I try and go into recovery it throws me back into Download mode and I have to do that button sequence to get out. Its almost like I deleted my recovery so Idk what to do... :'( if anyone can try and help it would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!!!

since MF3 Bootloader is locked there's no way to get your Recovery back!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] mattwheat:
The button sequence is not what's rebooting you out of download. Just holding the power for 10-15 secs does that. When the phone is off press and hold VOL+HOME and press and hold POWER till first splash screen. ( mine is the custom screen). Then release POWER only. Holding VOL+HOME till you see the first TWRP logo. You don't have to really hold it that long. Ussually just till the small blue writing in top left corner pops up. Works better for me to hold till the blue TWRP logo. Then release both buttons. Should take 5-8 secs then TWRP options screen will be up. If you are ever in download mode and you are not flashing with Odin or installing or really doing anything besides thinking "damnit I wanted recovery not ODIN". Then hold power till it shuts down and then start recovery boot sequence. Or hell just pull the battery. Want hurt as long as no installing , flashing, or upgrading or nose picking is going on.

Yes you can add music to the Galaxy Gear but not with ADB. I tried it and it didn't work, but you can use adb to push almost any apk. You have to use a pc program called mobilego or mobile go to add music. It allows you to do it all, push files, pictures, apk's , mp3's and it has a file explore.
