[Moto X Q&A] varun.gid:
I'm also planning to buy a Moto X on cyber monday.. I live in Dubai UAE, usually UK/Euro variants of phones work well here. Should i go for the Developer edition with GSM network or T-Mobile off contract version? I would prefer to buy the T-Mobile or AT n T version as i can customize it unlike the developer edition. Any help would be great :D Thanks.
[Moto X Q&A] erfannf2:
Guys, is Verizon Moto X like D4 in terms of global unlocked capability?

I bought a D4 last year and using it on GSM without any problem. Anybody can help me?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samih7:
Hi everybody,

I already checked a lot of threads in xda but it didn't solve my problem so I do it by myself...

Just got a HTC One and when I wanted to install the Google Edition ROM by bigxie with mini SDK, ADB and TWRP... I just messed up:

- OK to unlock bootloader

- S-OFF didn't work

- I accidentaly wiped everything: the OS...

I tried push a ROM with adb push rom.zip /sdcard/rom.zip but it didn't help:

- S-ON didn't allow me to install custom ROMs

- I couldn't turn my phone S-OFF because my PC didn't recognise it anymore + have no OS

- adb devices command didn't see my phone

Then I tried to relock it to install an official RUU from HTC but:

"(bootloader) signature checking...

FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)"

I guess it comes from my HBOOT-1.54, I red we have to be in 1.44 but one more time I can't downgrade my HBOOT because I'm not S-OFF.

Now my HTC One M7_UL is :

* TAMPERED *

* RELOCKED *

*** Security Warning ***

- S-ON

- HBOOT-1.54.0000

Checkmate ? :(

Thanks in advance...

another missing version-main :confused:, this is really getting weird.

are you still looking to go s-off? if so you're on hboot 1.54, which means a 2.24.xxx.? ROM, so download and try rumrunner with this

and/or

http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-401-8-zip/

select WIPE, select ROOT, unselect "stock recovery"
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samih7:
If version main is the version of the OS, I don't have one. :-S

Yes I'm still looking for it and install the Google Edition ROM...

Ok I'll try it, it's downloading, I hope it'll recognise the phone.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
version-main is the firmware version of the phone, just seems it's disappearing a lot last couple of days.

hboot 1.54 has firmware 2.24.xxx.x, so one of the roms I linked will hopefully get you s-off using rumrunner
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samih7:
Ok.

So I need to push and flash the ROM on TRWP, boot on it and a screen will appear with "WIPE" then "ROOT" and unselect stock recovery ?

Thanks.

NB: When I try to do a Factory Reset in TRWP, it fails with an "Unable to mount cache" error message.

NB1: Can't flash the ROM you gave me. Since I did an "Format Data" wich removes datas & encryption on internal storage, I can't flash anything...

NB2: OK I can't mount /data, /sdcard either...
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
say what?

unable to mount cache is OK, probably because of the fastboot erase cache

It's ok, I found an issue by formatting /data in CWM (I deleted TWRP) :)

The .8 ROM is installed but the fingertouch screen wasn't usable during the installation, I don't know if it means that's not a good version ?

Damn man you made my day, the ROM is installed and I can use my HTC again !

Is it the official RUU ?

But unfortunately it's still S-ON.

Thanks a lot
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
touchscreen wasnt working because you probably used 6.0.3.1, get the latest from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2173863 (though that one takes VERY long to backup/restore nandroids), so either get 6.0.3.2 or TWRP if you do nandroids frequently.

It's getting late for me, so have to sign off in a bit, and now that your phone is up and running, we can pick this up tomorrow....

you can try rumrunner now to get yourself s-off.

I'll check back tomorrow....

You can still hit the thanks button on my posts if i helped ;)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samih7:
No problem, take your time. Thank you for helping me !!

I hit the "thanks" but it doesn't appear anything, is it normal ?

I red I didn't need to get myself S-OFF to install a Custom Rom, is it true ?

I'm trying to get the Google Edition ROM again... Without success.

I flash boot.img in fastboot (& make clear cache) + flash the ROM normally (wipe cache + dalvik cache) via TWRP but my device enter in a boot loop when I reboot after installation (I just see the Google language selection, just to make me more frustrated lol...). Same with CyanogenMod.

Root Checker says "Congratulations ! This device has root access" and I unlocked the bootloader so I don't understand...

Maybe because of the CID of my phone is from Orange Poland (ORANGB10) ? I maybe should get S-OFF & Debrand ?

Thanks for your answer.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaHiLzZ:
Definitely do s-off if you can. It may save you if things go south..

---------- Post added at 12:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:01 AM ----------

However you need unlocked bootloader + custom recovery to install custom ROMs. Not S-off.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samih7:
I finally got S-OFF and achieved to install the stock Google Edition 4.4 ROM with this thread : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2358781

:D

I had to SuperCID (fastboot eom writecid 11111111) because changing the android-info.txt didn't work.

Could you tell me in which case is it useful to flash stock recovery (he says it's for future OTA's) ?

Does it mean I could do updates via Software Update in Android the menu ?

NB: In the best case, I would like to get the updates via Android interface and have the most "official" Google Edition ROM (I don't want to change it, sooner or later).

Thank you.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
I wouldn't :D, but that's your choice :laugh:

Anyway, I didn't read the thread you linked, but to get OTAs, you need "odexed stock rom", and "stock recovery" for OTAs to work properly,

you also need to change your CID (and possibly MID) to GPe

I think GPE CID is "GOOGL001" and MID is "PN0712000" (I THINK)

So if you're stock rom + stock recovery + correct CID & MID, you'll receive future OTAs just fine,

remember to keep S-Off.

if all good, would you mind editing the main thread title to include [SOLVED]. thanks
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samih7:
Why wouldn't you ? :laugh: I like Google's refinement, don't you ?

How could I verify I'm in stock recovery ?

I flashed it, and now when I click on RECOVERY in BOOT LOADER, it doesn't enter in recovery anymore: get that little Android green toy down with a red triangle.

Ok fine.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
"get that little Android green toy down with a red triangle" -> yep, that's stock recovery :good::good:

if you simultaneously and briefly press POWER + VOLUP + VOLDOWN, you'll get to the stock recovery menu (really tiny font). you'll have to try a couple of times to get the timing correctly.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samih7:
Thanks for your answer. :)

I have to do that when I'm in bootloader ? I'm trying in the "normal menu" but I don't get it. Let's continue ! One two three, one two three ! Haha
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
you shouldn't need to do it at all. why would you want to access stock recovery's menu? (unless you wanna wipe)? maybe i misunderstood your question.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samih7:
Yeah I don't need to do it. It was just to verify but I'm stock recovery so it's ok, don't care. :)

Big thank for your help, but you didn't answer me about the thanks button. Is it normal nothing appear when I hit it ?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:

Good morning all,

is there a way to access these features swiftly with a single hand?

I was thinking of mapping the 5 way navigation pad like if pressed down while phone pad is running it gets the call history and of pressed up it gets the speed dial.

I guess this is very inportant while driving :-)

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] vijay555:
I've made most of VJPhoneShortcuts for WM5 and WM2003. I'm not sure if the Speakerphone can be enabled on WM2003 through software, it's not "accesible" in the same way as on WM5. I got bored of looking for a way to do it a while back.

I can't remember if I've released the Wm2003 versions. If not, tell me what you need and I'll try to pack it up.

PS Kudos on the Psion 5. Still the best form factor I ever used. Love it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] meroupow:
Basically I am using your tools:

-Jump to SpeedDialer

-Jump to CallHistory

I associated them with green key and red key with xbar.

So I just press action to call xbar and press green or red to speed dial or to get to history.

That is very convinient and I thank you every day (even if xbar was able to simulate a click on the screen button through a macro, it was not working landscape and it had a delay and if the Wizard was "thinking" the delay was too short sometimes).

Anyway I wanted to install it to a friend with a S100 and I got an error I checked on your website and you warn that it is WM5 phone compatible only.

So I was wondering if it was portable to WM2003SE?

thanks.

PS: Yeh 5mx, I open it from time to time. The screen size was really great and the keyboard... the move it is sliding outside... fantastic.

The drawback was the batteries.

But now you could fit the Universal's hardware in this form factor and it would look amazing to everybody.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] vijay555:
meroupow: sorry for taking so long to respond to this one.

Unfortunately, the way WM2003 works is slightly different to Wm5 for this app. I spent quite a long time trying to figure it out, and then wrote another tool just to help me figure it out, and just got bored, but it can be done, and will be done. Eventually...

[Nokia Lumia 920] theonlyremedy:
My Nokia Lumia 920 Glass shattered after it was dropped from 2.5 feet, it landed on the glass and shattered, the touch is working fine and the display is also fine, no leaks and displays everything properly. When I took the phone to Nokia Care they informed that the whole glass, digitizer and LCD has to be changed even though the latter two were working fine and asked me around Rs.15000 (approx 280 USD) to fix it. Is it possible just to replace the glass. I recently ordered a digitizer in ebay and it was shown with glass and when I received the package it just had the digitizer without the glass and it didnt look like OEM at all. Am planning just to order the glass and use my existing Nokia digitizer that came with the phone if there is a way to separate the digitizer and shattered glass. Please let me know what I will require to fix.
[Nokia Lumia 920] Hamburg:
I broke mine recently too and after calling several local phone repair places (got similar quotes), I was convinced that the best bet was to order the whole screen assembly (including the LCD, digitizer and flexible key ribbon) and then do it myself. the assembly cost me just under $100 and was easy to replace with the help of the video on ifixit (here).

You can do just the digitizer, but its risky. The digitizer (the glass) is adheared to the LCD screen, and as I learned with my HD2, its very easy to ruin the LCD when separating the two. Within the guide posted above, there is a seperate guide for doing this (the link appears at about the 17:50 mark), you just have to be very very careful.

One last tip! The flex ribbon for the volume, power, and camera keys is very fragile and can easily tear when you're assembling/disassembling. I ended up ruining the original one when disassembling, then despite being extra careful, ruined the one on the new screen when reassembling, then had to wait a week for another new ribbon that I ordered off ebay. Watch out for the little plastic nub on the inside of the casing by the camera button. It sticks straight out towards the key ribbon and cuts it like a knife. That's what ended up tearing mine both times.

Good luck!
[Nokia Lumia 920] Rickgig:
XDA doesn't have a specific forum for the 1520 and XDA needs one. I bought my wife a 1520 and dropped it the first day (slippery case). Broke the glass in two corners and really doesn't effect anything and you can barely see the cracks. But, I too would like to replace it. Haven't tried to get an estimate and I am very capable of replacing myself. I have the insurance but that will cost $200.

Ideas or suggestions, other than don't drop your phone!

Hi, sorry I wasn't sure where to put this thread so I thought I best put it in General.

Right I just bought my son the Prestigio 5580 and have been loading it up with various apps so he can use it straight away.

I installed xbmc on it from my laptop (which worked fine on my smart tv box and on my kindle fire hd) but after it finished loading the start up I got a message saying "unfortunately xbmc has stopped working". I uninstalled and tried again but got the same message. I then downloaded the xbmc apk straight to the device and installed it that way but got the same message. I typed into google on the Prestigio 5580 "xbmc for Prestigio 5580" and it came up with various sites for the android download, so I downloaded an installed again only to get the same message.

Does anyone please know how I can resolve this issue please...

Well hi folks...

from today on - made no changes to my rooted nexus5 with graviton n5 1.1, which worked without any problems from the day I got it - it keeps changing the WiFi-mac-address after rebooting. (first 3 octets stay the same, last 3 octets change randomly, see attachment)

The issue seems to be well known on some other devices, but obviously I´m the first one experiencing this on the Nexus5.

Anyone else having this problem and maybe got a solution for ? It´s pretty annoying to have lots of entries on my wlan-router, also persistent ip assingning is not possible any more.

Things I tried already to fix the problem:

- installed different custom (bricked and franco) and stock kernels

- wiping dalvic/cache

- restored EFS-Backup made on the second day I got the phone

- reverted back to full stock without root / unlocked bootloader

Any help / tips / tricks to get things fixed would be highly appreciated ...

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tommyboy76:
Hi there,

Yesterday I decided to dive into ART just to see what the differences may be. I ran into some trouble. I got it fixed but thought I would share my experience in case it may help someone else.

What I'm running:

Nexus 4 (mako) with Faster binned chip

Purity Rom 11/27

Franco Kernel 195

SuperSU 1.65

CWM Recovery

When I decided to switch to ART I had about 70% battery remaining. I did the switch and the phone rebooted to change over the lib. The phone booted as it would normally and was optimizing applications. I noticed that the phone had got really hot when I picked it up to check it. The screen was off at that point and I could not get it to turn on.

I connected it to a USB charger and I got a flashing red light. Crap. I followed the guides out there which advised holding Vol Up and Power for 60 seconds, releasing, and connecting power. I let it charge for over an hour as prescribed. This did not resolve my issue. I tried a few different chargers of varying output and found that the lower powered chargers gave me a blinking red light (trouble indicator, I believe) and my new iPad charger would give a solid red light (charging from a very low battery indicator). It still made no difference in booting however.

If I held down the Vol Up and Power and connected a lower powered USB charger I could get to fast boot which led me to believe that the system board was not fried. When I disconnected the power while in fastboot the phone would switch off. Seems that somehow a fuse (electronic I'd guess, I'm not an electrical engineer) was keeping the battery from powering the system board.

To resolve the issue I had to open the phone, disconnect the battery ribbon, wait 10 seconds and then reconnect it. Fired right up after that.

To open the phone you'll need a t-5 torx screwdriver, a non-marring pry tool and a small phillips head screwdriver.
