Transmission of the text in its entirety: I contacted Samsung and asked a question regarding the update to version 4.4.2 KitKat. My question was: Will the update to version 4.4.2 only get GT I8262 users, or will be for GT I8260? Answer by Samsung: Dear update to version 4.4.2 users will get GT I8262 and GT I8260 users. I was told that the update follow the program Kies and Fota. So when we get a update all ;) I hope I'm happy all of us who have GT I8260.

Because, Samsung SUCKS to the core(not the phone, its the phrase) and thats why. They love to torture people who have mid range phones and put their effort to high end phones or low end phones

Samsung made mistake at Core coz 1gb of ram.. Then sammy introduce core+ with 768mb :)
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] friendfriend:
I am downloading something via ota update, it's size is 94.85mb.

I dont know what it is, maybe KitKat?

Or coz i have Xposed installed?

Edit: after downloading and pressing install by me, phone rebooted into cwm for 3-4s and rebooted again into old 4.1.2. It says "update fail to install, try via Kies".

I dont know why it failed.

I remove Xposed and try again.

Hope it is not failed coz phils cwm recovery installed?

Edit2:

It failed again in cwm recovery console.

In log it says smthng like " update.zip(bad)"
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] androiderrr:
Which country u belong to???
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] friendfriend:
East Europe bro, device is 8260.

I will try to catch that update file for later use.

Anybody knows where it should be downloaded? (/cache/fota/update.zip)?
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] androiderrr:
I think it will be stability update...no change in android version because file size is just 94MB
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] friendfriend:
I think the same. File is too small.

I dont know why it cannot be installed? (Root, xposed, build.prop changed)

I tried mannualy via phils cwm and it says again "cannot open update.zip".
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] friendfriend:
I update it via Kies and now Core is booting. On the screen is "Android is upgrading, optimising app xxx of 110"

And it is.... still 4.1.2 :(

It downloaded ~500+mb and I thought it is maybe KitKat.. But it isn't..
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] androiderrr:
Kies download whole file everytime...so its always more than 500MB+
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] friendfriend:
Do you know can i find that file on my pc?
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] androiderrr:
You can find that file while ur phone is upgrading after that it automatically gets deleted
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] WildfireDEV:
I was taking a look at the device tree that you guys have currently for the Core and I noticed that in the Sepolicies there aren't any files except for one. This is one of the many reasons you don't get a booting rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] darioradecic:
So we are not getting official kitkat, but is anybody working on custom cm11 or something like that?
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] friendfriend:
Cannot believe that! What a shame for Samsung, this is phone with 1gb of RAM.

Sent from my HTC One (M8)
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] :
Yup it booted, nothing was working other than boot. And yeah, the systemUI kept crashing
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] F@HIM:
Hey bro cm11 booted and even started but there were too many bugs like wifi, simcard, bluetooth, filemanager ects etcs...were not working so you just have to only fix all the bugs in the rom...if you do so that would be extremely gr8......:)

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elisaw99:
So, I have received my replacement phone from Google. Before I start updating the system, etc, I checked and currently I am on system 4.2.2. To avoid running into the same issues again, I want to save the system (each step of the way), but without rooting.

According to the HTC rep, there is a way to do it with adb commands, but you cannot restore the systems without rooting. I found the following webpage: http://blog.shvetsov.com/2012/09/bac...t-root-or.html

I am hoping that I can manage the following: 1) save system files that will allow for a restore, should i require it. 2) potentially create a packaged signed version of the system for those who need 4.2.2 (and i can do the same once i update to 4.3 and 4.4). 3) have the method to restore available, should i need it.

So, which of the versions of the abd command is most useful? Which is most universal to be able to restore the system? And do any create the file(s) that we had been looking for with this whole process?

I am not opposed, also, to saving in several versions/formats. I could just use some direction.

Thanks!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elisaw99:
Hey all, I would REALLY like to save things before i start updating or changing the system! Could someone please advise? I do not want to start replacing the recovery again, and run into the same issues that i had before. Can you advise how i can do all of this with my PC (adb commands)?

Your help would surely be appreciated!!!
[HTC One Max] thehomebiscuit:
I got the Verizon HTC One Max today... Successfully got bootloader unlock, root, and S-OFF (thanks to rumrunner!).

Found CWM Touch/Non-Touch recovery as well as TWRP. Tried flashing both via fastboot and neither would actually load when telling device to boot into recovery. Tried installing TWRP via GooManager, no go. Tried installing CWM via ROM Manager, no go. Recovery not found for either is what I was pretty much running in to.

Decided to try flashing recovery for Verizon HTC One (via ROM Manager), it says it worked, but still would not boot into recovery. Ever since then, though, I cannot get service and device will be on for a minute or two and then reset.

Manually flashed TWRP and CWM and now it seems to boot into recovery (with either), but still no service and still resetting every minute or two.

Cannot find RUU for this device, nor can I find radio to flash or stock recovery.

Help me! I want my phablet back! lol
[HTC One Max] Jiggity Janx:
Where did you "find" cwm and twrp? Different versions from other forums 'sometimes' contain other partitions with them.

Should only use:

http://xdaforums.com/htc-one-max/orig-development
[HTC One Max] Jiggity Janx:
Recoveries are made from a device specific kernel. The One kernel is very similar to the Max but not exact. There is work being done to get usable pieces of a decrypted Verizon Max ruu. Not sure what you can do until available.
[HTC One Max] thehomebiscuit:
I "found" the recoveries from the following locations:

TWRP 2.6.3.0 and HERE

then

ClockworkMod Touch Recovery 6.0.4.5

I typically don't go anywhere but XDA Developers...
[HTC One Max] thehomebiscuit:
Yeah, that's kinda what I've come to realize. I guess I'll just have to go without for a while. This is why I have backup phones! Lol
[HTC One Max] Jiggity Janx:
I was wondering if you went elsewhere in xda initially since you ended up going to One forum and flashing that recovery. Could possibly ask someone to pull kernel from Verizon Max and create flashable zip.

---------- Post added at 04:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:28 PM ----------

I try to help where I can but its a busy time and im not even a dev.

---------- Post added at 04:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:33 PM ----------

Dont go without. You have custom Max recovery installed now and we have the files for someone in here to create you some flashable zips of stock kernel and stock recovery to try. Decrypted ruu pieces are needed when you cant flash with custom recovery.

Just ask in General for someone to create flashable zips.
[HTC One Max] thehomebiscuit:
Any recommendations as to which recovery to use (TWRP or CWM)?
[HTC One Max] Jiggity Janx:
Read through both threads. Both are having some issues right now and are not perfect but should mostly work.
[HTC One Max] thehomebiscuit:
Now I might be in even more trouble... Whenever I power on, I immediately go to TWRP recovery, even after fastboot flashing CWM recovery...
[HTC One Max] dottat:
I posted stock recovery for you in your other thread. Thanks to the developer for the app flashify who worked me last night and today to get this app working for the one max .
[HTC One Max] Jiggity Janx:
It would be great if you started a thread that explained how flashify works with the Max now. I tried it earlier on and it didnt work. With it we dont necessarily need flashable zips for stock files.

---------- Post added at 07:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:35 PM ----------

Are you sure you are still soff? Cant go flashing those other files if not.

---------- Post added at 08:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:58 PM ----------

Just in case you or anyone is wondering you cannot use flashify unless you can boot into android as it is an app.
[HTC One Max] thehomebiscuit:
Yes sir. Bootloader unlocked and S-OFF. Booting into Android is not an option, so I'm wondering how I go about flashing these files provided to me being in .bin format? Can I flash them using fastboot? Or can I rename .bin to .img?
[HTC One Max] dottat:
Just add the .IMG to the files. They are IMG files.

---------- Post added at 09:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:23 PM ----------

And by the way guys.....there will be an updated flashify on the market shortly that will support both kernel and recovery backup creation while booted into android. It runs as a regular app and simply requires root. It will also flash custom kernels and recoveries as well.
[HTC One Max] Jiggity Janx:
There is onandroid for that now if anyone needs it.
[HTC One Max] thehomebiscuit:
Is the kernel the same thing as the radio? Please excuse my n00bness.
[HTC One Max] dottat:
No its not. Have you flashed those two yet ?
[HTC One Max] thehomebiscuit:
I haven't yet. Working at the moment. Will do as soon as I get home. What fastboot command do I use to flash the kernel?
[HTC One Max] dottat:
Fastboot flash boot (bootfilename)

Just replace the (bootfilename) part with the file name you are using

Example

Fastboot flash boot g6f789c8.img

Edit- also I checked and found that drop box must have added the .bin extension. The flashify app leaves them without extension because it assumes they are .IMG files. Therefore, they can simply be renamed to .IMG. Didn't notice that in the hurry to post.
[HTC One Max] thehomebiscuit:
Awesome. I thank you for the help. I'll let you know if it's a success. Will be the first thing to do upon getting home, after grabbing a beer of course. Lol
[HTC One Max] Murrda:
What you need to do is fastboot the stock recovery, you shouldn't need the stock boot.img unless you tried to flash someone else's kernel for a different device... Anyways yeah you need to fastboot the stock recovery by rebooting in to bootloader and typing "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" given the stock recovery is "recovery.img" which it should be.. Once stock recovery is installed boot in to the stock recovery any way you can possibly get to it and do a full factory data reset.. This will wipe the entire phone as well as reset the Verizon radio/baseband and theoretically you should be able to boot right back up and cell and data connection should resume as normal! Good luck and PM me if you need any further help and I'll give you my gmail/hangouts so you can hit me up directly right there..
[HTC One Max] thehomebiscuit:
I got BL unlock, S-OFF, and root via rumrunner. Maybe I'm mistaken, but doesn't rumrunner flash an insecure kernel?
[HTC One Max] dottat:
It does. I used rumrunner so mine would be as well.
[HTC One Max] thehomebiscuit:
Yours meaning the one you shared with me?
[HTC One Max] dottat:
Yep. Have you tried a factory reset from any of the recoveries yet ?
[HTC One Max] thehomebiscuit:
I was reading somewhere about a fastboot/adb command that displays the eMMC block locations and labels. Come to think of it, one thing that may have screwed me was attempting to flash TWRP via Terminal Emulator and possibly flashing to the wrong block? Any way of knowing what goes where and if I messed something up there?

[HTC One Max] thehomebiscuit:
I envy you guys! Lol Is it possible to have flashed say a recovery to the boot block or is there something in place that will not allow such an event? Flashing to p38 does look famiar, but I remember finding a post that showed a different location, though I don't believe using that location caused the current problem. I flashed the CWM recovery via fastboot and still, my device powers on showing HTC logo and the red lettering on the bottom of the screen (does not show entering recovery on top like it used to), then just goes to TWRP recovery, not CWM...
[HTC One Max] dottat:
Did you flash both the recovery and the boot IMG from me yet ?

It's possible you could have. The IMG files are pretty close in size...though I've never tried something I didnt know would work.
[HTC One Max] thehomebiscuit:
Not yet. On the road. Will be a couple hours before I'm home. I knew I should have brought it with me!
[HTC One Max] dottat:
I would start out by flashing the kernel first and see if it boots and picks up service.
[HTC One Max] thehomebiscuit:
Flashed kernel... Boots now, but still no service and it reboots after a minute or so. I flashed recovery and that's all good. Did a full wipe and wiped cache. It said something about "restoring NV for Verizon" and completed successfully but still just hangs at HTC screen after booting and then reboots again.
[HTC One Max] dottat:
Stupid question but your battery cover is on right ?
[HTC One Max] Jiggity Janx:
Im curious about this question. Cant ask something like this and not explain why. :)

One of the antennas is on the cover right around the camera hole. Not sure which one since I haven't seen a teardown yet.

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] android.zealot.fervor:
With Android 4.4 KitKat, Google is aiming to bring a better Android experience to the masses through features such as reduced memory consumption on low-memory (512MB) and low-cost devices, and that has had a lot of people hoping manufacturers will bring the new version of Android to some of their mid-range devices that may not otherwise be eligible for another update. Well, according to an image we received in our inbox, Samsung is thinking of doing just that, and is considering the update for some of its mid-range and low-end devices.

In a document SAMSUNG has decided to release KITKAT 4.4 Update for SAMSUNG GALAXY S ADVANCE in near future.

You can find the name of SAMSUNG GALAXY S ADVANCE in KITKAT UPDATE LIST down below :
