Hello! (My First Question :P)

Yesterday i tried to install a ROM,but something happend and my phone bootlooped !

My Phone is Sony Xperia Tipo (Rooted,Unlocked bootloader,Installed CWM 6.1)

When i remove the battery and i insert it again,i try to enter Recovery mode but i can't!

I Tried to connect it throught SEUS and update it,but it says that my firmware is custom and i cant do anything!

Before i tried to install the ROM,i kept a full backup of my phone throught recovery menu,but i think now its useless because i cant use it,i cant enter recovery mode.

When i turn on the phone it shows Sony logo and after that,the screenshot that i posted!

Any help??? :/

Hello,

I have Prime Nova Launcher.

I can't seem to activate the transparent status bar option.

Do I need root?

The stock launcher has transparency.

With the new Rumrunner exploit, the version of HBOOT makes no difference UNLESS IT IS 1.55

S-OFF is definitely needed. It can be achieved with any HBOOT but 1.55 as of today.

Yes LTE will work properly.

If you can find a carrier-specific RUU for your modelid and cid, then you are as good as a stock device.

Can't help you with that one

The One has two active capacitative buttons (by default). Custom kernels enable the use of the HTC logo as a third button. You can always enable on-screen buttons if you prefer them.

I'd say it is safe to assume. Launching a "Google Edition" device and not supporting it for the first "major" update since release would be a disaster...

I'm no expert about the Google Edition but from what I understand it is pretty close to a Nexus device. I'm a big Sense 5 (and 5.5) sellout however and don't really understand why you'd want to do that but it's your choice. The updates still have to come through HTC and do NOT come directly from Google.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirkuma:
Thanks a lot!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirkuma:
Thanks a lot!

4.) Is there a way I can backup stock rom, that device comes with (I doubt that i will be able to find my carrier specific RUU)?

8.) I was thinking that HTC only update its own Sense ROM, and Google takes care about Google Edition ROM (so GE will be updated before Sense). But I might try Sense for a while and see if I can accept it.

In case of S-OFF, can new official HTC update or OTA, toggle it to S-ON again?

Most recommended tweaked Sense ROMS, that are smooth as GE?

Thank you.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qzcgd:
4) A nandroid backup or RUU is pretty much essential once you start messing around with your phone. In my case, the RUU is not available but I do have a stock nandroid backup

8) Google updates Android and HTC brings it to the one skin-free. There is delay between Nexus releases and Google Edition releases, but it is WAY shorter than with most phones.

For the ROM, I really recommend Android Revolution HD by mike1986. It is smooth, adds cool customization options with the Sense 5 toolbox and simply adds to the HTC experience. F

You won't really need offical HTC updates or OTA if you decide to go with S-OFF. You could always S-ON back to stock but if you update the bootloader in a firmware update and it doesn't allow you to go back to S-OFF, you won't be able to live with yourself :P
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirkuma:
Thank you. I decide to go with HTC One despite, special S-OFF issue, that makes things little more complicated in comparison with other manufacturers (Sony or ASUS Nexus). Xperia Z1f (Honami mini) was my first choice, but unfortunately if will be only available in Asia/Japan, so I will switch to HTC.

Looking forward to playing with the One :)

Thanks for your help again!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirkuma:
Finally i receive my HTC One (had to exchange the first unit because of the gap in housing).

My HTC One out of the box is:

Android 4.2.2,

Software ver. 2.24.401.8

Kernel: 3.4.10-g28df0d6

Baseband: 4A.17.3250.14:10.39.1150.04L

CID: [HTC__032]

S-ON

HBoot 1.54

I have on question tough:

can I update to 1.3.670597 (small 614 kb update fundamental for a bigger update) and from here to 3.62.401.1 update (678,48 MB, Android 4.3 and Sense 5.5) without S-OFF from the current version?

New update does make HBoot 1.55, but is seems that it is supported by Rumrunner (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2496687)

Should I bother with S-OFF now and then take OTA update (will I lose S-OFF after update?) or can I update to 4.3 & Sense 5.5 and then made S-OFF i i decide to go with custom fw?

P.S.

At the moment I'm actually satisfied with stock (very quick and stable, no delays in UI) and will probably not go for custom rom for a while (maybe just with root, to remove some of the bloat-ware).

Thank you for replay in advance.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qzcgd:
Sorry for the late reply,

I would S-OFF right now using revone as it is much simpler to use. Worst case scenario you relock bootloader and re-enable S-ON.

You will not lose S-OFF. Once you have it, it is yours to keep.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirkuma:
To the topic: My current hboot is 1.54, I was thinking that revone only works until hdboot 1.44.

What about options for removing TEMPERED, UNLOCKED messages from boot -loader (I’m little confused here, there are so many treads and options which may work, or may not, including flashing parts of firmware..etc..Seems dangerous to me)?

If my understanding is correct, I need to unlock boot-loader, root, and then S-OFF....but after that to be able to update trough OTA (to Android 4.3/Sense 5.5 stock), I must revert all the changes made (excluding S-OFF), if I wish that OTA will be successful (again I’m not sure if there actually is RUU.exe for my current version of software and using nandroid online or CWM /TWRP recovery for backup again involves a lot of work after for going back to stock).

At the moment seems too much work for me, that’s why I was asking if updating to 4.3/5.5 hdboot 1.55 makes more sense, and only if I decide to try some custom rom, going towards S-OFF direction...

But still, I'm not completely sure, if I understand correctly how to remove red messages in boot loader (unlocked, tempered...etc) and how hard or dangerous is it.

What I’m thinking at the moment is:

Go to 4.3/5.5 wia OTA, and use it for a while, than make unlock, root, s-off and install TWRP, and make backup. Then remove some not needed apps (Facebook, Tweeter, Stocks...). In case of need returning back to stock (warranty repair in case of hardware failure, new OTA for stock, etc), use TWRP to restore back and then somehow revert all the changes after (unlock, unroot, factory recovery…). So what are my available options with my current / updated version? Is this easier to achieve if I do all this on hboot 1.54 and 4.22 android or can be also done under hdboot 1.55 and 4.3?

P.S.

But you were correct with your comments about Sense, it's not bad at all. I starting to like Sense UI, so maybe going towards Google Edition will not be needed at all.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qzcgd:
It's up to you really. HBOOT 1.55 is now compatible with Rumrunner so upgrade away. Once you have S-OFF, you also get SuperCID, which gives access to all ROMs and firmwares (included stock ones, that are usually available here before the carriers even start testing). The Tampered flag is in fastboot, it is not linked to the red writing. To remove the red writing you must flash a custom firmware.

The easiness of going back to stock after having unlocked the bootloader and etc depends on the availability of RUUs and/or S-OFF.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirkuma:
Looking this:

http://www.htc1guru.com/downloads/ruu-file-downloads/ -> RUU M7 UL JB 50 HTC Europe 1.20.401.1 Radio 4A.13.3227.06 10.27.1127.01 Release 308001 Signed 2 4

It seems that my RUU.exe path is open? This seems to be 4.1.2 version of RUU with older radio, but it should give me OTA option to 2.24.401.8 (Android 4.2.2/Sense 5.0) and then OTA again to 3.62.401.1 (Android 4.3/Sense 5.5).

Can you please confirm this? Do I have a valid "easy" RUU.exe backup/downgrade path?

Thanks?

P.S.

There are some notes about touch not working properly going downgrade path to old firmware...will I be able to accept OTA anyway?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qzcgd:
Once you are S-OFF, you can downgrade using an RUU (since you should have SuperCID as well); meaning you can't be "stuck" S-OFF. S-OFF allows you to "factory lock" the bootloader (instead of "relock"), remove the "tampered" sign and flash the latest firmwares.

The RUU you found, while valid, would only work if you were S-OFF as it's older than the software on you HTC One right now. HTC1Guru has stock ROMs that include recovery for pretty much any firmware if for some reason you don't like RUUs or don't wanna go S-OFF but still want to flash ROMs.

Touch works starting at 2.24 and it simply doesn't work in Recovery, meaning you have to use the volume keys.

I really don't like the BT headsets yet, still prefer holding a mobile to my ear but the Jasjar is a little big to use with comfort as a phone.

Has anyone thought about using one of these tiny mobiles with BT as a handset paired to the Jasjar? Can this be done.

I would like to holster or belt my jasjar and just drop a normal moby into my pocket???

Also anyone made a bluetooth handset instead of headset, like a mobile but just works as a BT handset?

Regards
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] numanoids:
I doubt it could be done with handsets at present as the bluetooth specification requires services to be available and for headsets, this is the handsfree/headset profile.

Current handsets look for this to be available on devices to allow audio to go to them, however the current handsets will probably only offer network access, dialup networking, file transfer and possibly a serial port to the jasjar

Interesting concept though, having a handset as a bluetooth headset and something I'd probably be quite interested in seeing developed myself!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] jah:
er..this sound very odd to me - but then again I only use my Exec as a PDA at the moment.

Anyway, have a look at this as an option (I have ordered one but I know the Universal does not support all the functions yet): http://www.tekkeon.com/site/products-ez3000-specs.php

With the SE P910 you can load the Contacts database onto the headset!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] roshi:
I've just bought an O2 XDA Exec and has exactly the same thought, but could not get it to work.

It depends on the bluetooth "profiles" supported by the mini-handset. I tried it with my previous Sony Ericsson phone (can't remember the model number, but it's about 2 yrs old) and I could only use the handset as a modem (i.e. not much use). You might have better luck with newer handsets, but I would not rely on any mobile phone shop being able to tell you which incoming profiles the handset supports.

Note that there are likely to be problems with caller-display on the handset as the exec only appears to send the incoming number (not the contact name) to the BT device.

If you're set on this approach, I would suggest trying it on any handset you propose using. I can't see that it's worth spending money on this solution though - you may be better off with a phone and a separate PDA.

In order to get a small handset for day to day phone use, I ended up (yesterday) buying a Sony Ericsson HBH660 headset for £50. It has a small caller number display and the voice recognition system (on the exec) seems to work well for making regular calls. I keep it in my pocket and put the exec in my coat/jacket.

Good luck

Hi

I badgered some headset manufacturers last year to make the following:

Bluetooth device with handsfree profile (client), included within a *tiny* mobile phone case together with a screen and a keypad, as well as the usual bluetooth headset electronics.

Make it tiny, and trendy - perhaps from brushed aluminium and I reckon such a device would do well. It would have more room inside than a mobile phone case so the battery could be large, and offer perhaps a month of use between charges. It should also charge directly via Mini USB socket and not require any docking stations etc which need lugging about.

Would anyone else here buy such a device, if it were priced at premium headset prices? £50-60 perhaps?

I want it cause holding a universal to your ear causes arm ache! and using a traditional bluetooth headset in a shopping centre make you look like a nob!

Does the headset 1.2 handsfree profile even support a bluetooth headset device with a keyboard?

Hi all,

I screwed up pretty bad on this one, and the long and the short of it is that I got it stuck on the "4G" splash screen (with both recovery and download mode available). To fix this, I downloaded the leaked FH13 stock rom (SPH-D710.FH13_CL663858_Rev02-UNROOTED.tar.md5), extracted everything, and attempted to flash all of the files via Heimdall (I use Linux). Everything flashes fine, except for the boot partition:

This also occurred when I used "--1 boot.bin", "--boot boot.bin", and "--BOOT boot.bin", since my human-readable pit includes this entry:

If I exclude the boot parameter, the rest of the ROM files flash just fine. I can get to recovery and download mode, but the phone won't boot up past the "Samsung Galaxy SII" splash screen now, and will automatically reboot when you press and hold the power button...you have to yank the battery to keep it from booting back up.

Any help would be appreciated on either of the issues (1) the boot (2) Heimdall not flashing boot.bin.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gil81:
Push a compatible kernel to sdcard and flash in recovery..reboot.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jav209:
I should state that I included in my attempt to flash the stock rom SPH-D710.FH13_CL663858_Rev02-UNROOTED.tar.md5 was the kernel zImage, which doesn't resolve the issue. Is the issue in how the kernel is flashed (via Heimdall vs. from the sdcard)?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gil81:
I'm not sure about heimdall....I'm a windows man. But I've helped members with it and that program can be fickle....That's why I suggested, if everything but you're kernel flashed, to just put a compatible kernel zip on the sdcard and flash with cwm recovery...you do still have a custom recovery right..

If you can't do above...let me know and I'll track down the heimdall guide I give others and maybe you can read it and find the answer..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jav209:
Since I've been attempting to get everything back to stock, I have the original recovery, which I assume will work (?). If not, is there a suggested version I should flash first? Moreover, would you recommend a specific kernel zip? The options when it comes to all these downloads is dizzying.

Many thanks in advance!

Read this.. http://www.thegalaxytabforum.com/index.php?/topic/4757-how-to-use-heimdall/

Pay spacial attention to the commit about repartition....also.

You can get the stock firmware...from ...sammobile.com ....I would get 4.0.4 .... If you're on the p4wifi ( p7510 )variant..that way you can use my guide to flash..or at least use the files ( unzipped ) in heimdall.

If you don't want to root...just return to stock, the files for you're device are on sammobile...I bet anyway.

If after reading the guide you have questions or are stuck...hit me back and I'll see what I can do.....but...include,......you're steps, firmware flashed , device variant, program used to flash..

Few! I got it back. I had to go back to the very first stock version (ginderbread) from sammobile, and flashed each of the included partition files from the zip file via heimdall (I use the command line rather than the gui, but basically everything else was as you stated in your guide on heimdall).

The only problem: OTA updates don't seem to be working. I'll experiment a bit and probably root it too.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gil81:
Sorry about not getting back to you quicker...crazy work week and in the middle of a move...

But before you go rooting gingerbread...if I was you I would heimdall the 4.0.4 ICS version...you will need the ICS boot loader later on..if you plan on flashing any newer ROMs...

To root this device...on latest JB or latest ICS. Just use the app ( framaroot ). You can find it right here on xda. It will root the stock firmware , but you won't have a custom recovery. If you want a custom recovery after rooting. Just go to rwilco12's repo and grab a kernel with cwm that is compatible with the firmware you're running...
