Gathering our Notes:

-- The first digit = selects attributes for the set user ID (4) and set group ID (2) and save text image (1)

-- The second digit = permissions for the user who owns the file: read (4), write (2), and execute (1)

-- The third digit = permissions for other users in the file's group: read (4), write (2), and execute (1)

-- The fourth digit = permissions for other users NOT in the file's group: read (4), write (2), and execute (1)

The octal (0-7) value is calculated by adding up the values for each digit:

Owner (rwx) = 4+2+1 = 7

Group(rx) = 4+1 = 5

Other (rx) = 4+1 = 5

chmod mode = -0755 = -rwxr-xr-x
[HTC One SV] DrBassman:
chmod 0755 = -rwxr-xr-x

Other than that, looks like a fine tutorial...
[HTC One SV] Modding.MyMind:
Haha, typo. Thanks for bringing that to my attention.
[HTC One SV] DrBassman:
I once spent countless hours "cleaning up" from a typo. See if you can spot it...

# rm lo *

versus the correct/intended command:

# rm lo*

Of course, backups had not been run in over 90 days!!!
[HTC One SV] russellvone:
I see space between o&*

lol

that, I'm sure would have been tough to spot in the actual code
[HTC One SV] Modding.MyMind:
The space there would register any file with 'lo' but would also tackle any other file within the directory you are located at and delete them all if given by force. Depending if you ran that with root access or not would depend if you really took a beating on that oops lol. Meaning, Yes or No for each file lol. Having the code not spaced prevents that and will only focus on files of 'lo'.

Sorry, didn't go in to much details, about to lay down for the night.
[HTC One SV] Modding.MyMind:
The rm command is very dangerous if not properly used ;)
[HTC One SV] palmtree5:
True story! One of those things you should only use if you know what you're doing
[HTC One SV] DrBassman:
The # at the beginning the commands indicates the user is root. A $ at the beginning indicates user is not root.

The command was quickly typed over a slow dial-up by a colleague (i.e. NOT me)...It was a good 20 seconds before he realized the command hadn't completed & he spotted the typo....Oh $|-|I+ !!!! he said...
[HTC One SV] Modding.MyMind:
Whoa! 20 seconds hahahaha. Ouch....

Contacted O2 with regards to Costs for using push email, and they inform me that its only the amount of GPRS data you use (Personal user not business).

But they include 1Mb free with every tariff and anything additional is £3 per Mb.

Is this the correct information ? Sometimes customer services do give out wrong information.

You can flash that kernel with Flashify instead of Fastboot, makes things easier: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgollner.flashify.

the easiest way is to (if ur recovery was changed to twrp, then go there and install the doomkernel) then after installing the doomkernel, go to backup and restore then restore ur files. thats it ;) goodluck mate!

Hello, today I played on my Nexus and it freezes and switch off. I re-plug the battery it start but freezes and switch off on boot screen. Later on I go home, I plug it on charger and eveything was solved.. untill I remove the charger again the phone freezes and refuse to turn on. Is the problem from battery or something worse?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pipp0:
Also when I remove the charger, phone first work, then lost signall (no matter 4G or 3G or H+) and then again gain signal and freezes.

Same Problem

I have the exact same problem, I can't destroy my 3rd phone yet. NOOOOOO.
[Paranoid Android Q&A] StormConjurer:
I used the OTA app on my Nexus 7 (flo) to update to 4.0 beta 3 and when the tablet rebooted vanilla Android was installed. The boot icon is still Paranoid Android, but halo, pie controls, and all the customization settings are gone. Am I doing something wrong? It seemed like a fairly straight forward process.
[Paranoid Android Q&A] Anu6is:
Read the change logs...it's not vanilla. That's the intended look however
[Paranoid Android Q&A] StormConjurer:
So those features just haven't been introduced into the new version yet?

It would be nice if the update app didn't pester me to install a new version if it's not finished.
[Paranoid Android Q&A] Anu6is:
I don't see how it's pestering you. You can turn off notifications.

It's doing what it is supposed to do, which is inform you of an updated version.
[Oppo N1] ThommmF:
I successfully flashed CM 10.2 to the original Oppo N1. What does not work is the device encryption. Even after a factory reset the process starts and then nothing else happens but the Android logo appears.
[Oppo N1] viper1300:
I've got exactly the same problem and it really annoys me. The full phone encryption was one of the main reasons for switching from ios in general and buying the oppo n1.

I got my N1 32GB with ColorOS yesterday, installed cyanogenmod 10.2, everything is fine except the device encryption. After choosing a password, the screen shows the green android logo with a chain around the belly and the progress bar is missing. I waited several hours and noticed that i can easily go back. The whole encryption process doesn't start, but it also throws no error message.
[Oppo N1] ThommmF:
Nor in ColorOS

Today I wiped my N1 completely to try to encrypt a fresh install. I had to realize that Oppo's ColorOS does not even have the possibillity to encrypt the N1.

My guess is that encryption is not possible at all on the Oppo N1.

If so, that is a huge privacy and security gap!
[Oppo N1] viper1300:
I really hope that there's a solution. Running around with a phone that everybody could gain easily access to is an absolute nogo.
[Oppo N1] maxwen:
Havnt seen encryption working on any "non-stock device"

And CM on the N1 should be seen as "non-stock"

even if their PR wants to tell you the opposite :)

Also I gues you are aware that the contents of a "sdcard" are not encrypted?

And on devices like the N1 the "internal" memory is handled like a scard

even if its not removable
[Oppo N1] viper1300:
So there's no way to secure the data? Thinking about returning this device and buying a htc one max. According to the htc page (sorry couldn't provide a link, search "HTC One Max Device Encryption" and then the first link) document, the encryption works for the phone storage and the sd card?
[Oppo N1] maxwen:
There is device specific support to also encrypt a sdcard

but thats not a general android feature

You should just consider one thing:

A phone is NEVER a "safe" place to store sensitve data no matter

what kind of encryption you apply to it.
[Oppo N1] viper1300:
You're absolutely right, but you can always try to make it as safe as possible ;)

Thanks for the heads up on the one max.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Calibaan:
I rooted a LG V500 and installed Malladus 1.2.5. Did work fine. Then I made the mistake to flash the dyn.Kernel r2. The device did not start anymore.

After going around with the tricky hardware keys I can get back to TWRP recovery and flash again an image ZIP (tested it with the already working Maladus Zip as also with CM11 nightly). Flashing did not show any errors but after rebooting to system it does not start the image instead it goes back to recovery or hangs at the LG screen (did also wait over an hour there). ADB does also not connect anymore also the drivers did work fine before.

Does anyone have a clue what I can do or what I have missed?
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Calibaan:
Meanwhile I upgraded TWRP to the newest version and changed recovery also to Philz CWM "Secure Booting Error! Device UnLock" is also shown. But Boot loop does still occur also after triggering all sorts of wipe and reflashing again.

ADB, Fastboot or sideload is still not available. Windows device driver does only show "LGE AndroidNET Serial Port".

The mentioned recovery methods do fail since the GPAD does not connect regardless if already in download mode or not.

Anyone some hints what I can try next?
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mercvtio:
Have you tried flashing cm11 or mahdi, just to check it's not a rom thing?
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Calibaan:
Both the newest CM11 and MAHDI ROMs show up with the boot loop. Its unclear for me why the recovery mode is still forced also after flashing a ROM. Did also try CMWs "Clean to Install a new ROM" which should wipe everything but no luck.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mercvtio:
Weird, there shouldn't be any problem...

As far as I can tell - but I might be wrong - your only way out would be to go back to stock. I haven't tried it myself, cause my installs always got right, but this thread might do the job :

[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whoamigriffiths:
I can suggest two things,

One is a complete clutching at straws idea and the other is a bit scary if it doesn't work.

First is to extract the boot.img and try to flash just that and see what happens. I'm not sure if you would have to lokify it, I'm just brainstorming.

The other is to download quick adb and fastboot (from xda) several roms and twrp 2.3.0 first to your pc and then completely wipe your tablet. Then reinstall your drivers on your pc.

Then install twrp 2.3.0 on your tablet through adb. Then flash a rom.

Then hopefully boot up and then flash twrp 2.3.2 zip

I'm not shouting but I want to emphasise this

If you wipe the tablet and adb is still not working YOU MAY END UP WITH A BRICK.

I'm not confident, it would be great if someone with more experience could chip in.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Calibaan:
Already gone through all of this. :(

Recovery is not the problem, I can flash and use TWRP 2.6.3.1/2.6.3.2 or Philz CWM. LOKI should also be working since the "Secure Booting Error" is shown.

ADB is NOT possible. I can not connect to ADB since in recovery both TWRP and CWM do not respond on ADB and the download mode does not support ADB in general. Drivers should be fine since the GPAD could be rooted via ADB before I flashed the dyn. Kernel.

Since ADB does not work that might be also the problem I can´t start the recovery.

To flash the original kernel or recovery I would need Flashify since those are only available as image files (.IMG) but I can´t do this from recovery.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Calibaan:
In over 15 years of R&D testing of STBs and embedded devcies I´ve never seen such a f***ing flawed recovery design.

First of all it should never happen that connection to first stage bootloader is not possible anymore via ADB or (USB)serial. Then all recovery images lack of a real erase function, removing really all data and file rights by zeroing the sectors.

Damn, that bricked device was a real tricky one.

So here my solution for the boot loop (I don´t know if it does work for others but I will not go try this again....)

Install the LG Mobile Tools and start them. There is no need to set to Korea as country as described in some manuals (later more). Now install the offered device drivers if they (or newer drivers) are not already installed on your PC.

Boot into recovery whether it does it on itself, by "adb reboot recovery" or with the hardware key combination.

In recovery mode swipe system, data, cache, dalvik etc. Swipe really EVERYTHING your recovery does allow you to swipe.

In recovery call the boot-to-system function. Some recovery images may now offer to root the device, ignore this.

When the reboot started press both volume keys together and hold them until the download mode is activated (screen will be almost black with a very faded infobanner which signalizes download mode is enabled).

Connect the pad to the PC. The LG Mobile tools will automatically identify the device if connection can be established and show up if a software upgrade is available. Therefore no need to set up before to Korea as country since it does switch itself to the correct settings. If a software upgrade is offered then start it, if it says you have already the newest version then go to option and start a recover/repair update. In case a connection is not established try another USB port. For me it worked for e.g. with an USB3.0 port but it should also work with USB 2.0 ports. In some cases an active USB hub may help since they are powered externally.

Hope this might help others with the same problem.

Some words from me regarding the dyn.Kernel: do not flash it if it is not already confirmed that it will work together with your installed ROM version. I don´t know what really went wrong with it, but in my personal opinion there is a high risk to get this boot loop again which is really hard to break since normal swiping/reflashing did not work anymore on my device and LG recovery and ADB were affected, too.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dummy1001:
I just found this thread after I had a similar experience.

In matter of fact the LG mobile tool helped. Since the mobile tool deletes and overrides everything is it easy to recover:

Turn of the device

Start LG Mobile tool (check that LG driver is installed)

Push volume up and down at the same time (not power button)

Plug into USB port

Release volume buttons

Now you can continue with LG Mobile tool

Do want to have the procedure again, took me a long time to get it fixed...

My mistake: Started OTA update with root which brought into situation above. I thought it would be worth to try with only deleting via SuperSu but root is not removed completely...

Thank you! This worked beautifully for me. I, too, took the OTA with root and got stuck in the TWRP boot loop. Was hopeful of a successful install even if losing root because of other's saying that they did without unrooting first. Lesson learned.

Hello,

So I bought an HTC One last May at full price so I could use it abroad. I now want to replace it. What are my options here? Will T-Mobile give me credit if I return it to them? Or would I have to sell it and then buy a phone at full price again?

Crazysah
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] PhoenixPath:
Most likely: Sell the device and either buy a new one outright again - or use T-Mobile's EIP financing (and then sell the old one).

Out of curiosity; what are you looking to replace it with?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] xile6:
How many days has it's been?

Buy law your under 14 exchange . They will charge you a $50 restocking fee.

Now of it's pass the 14days then some. Places won't do anything. Other will take it in of it's under 30days just charge more restocking.

Other then that sell it for a lost on eBay.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] PhoenixPath:
:p

He said he bought it last May. ;)
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] xile6:
lol. I think it was late or i was half sleep when i read that.I did not see May.

In that case just buy another phone with tmobile trade in. ther give you around $200 for it.

Or try your luck on ebay i seen them go for around $380 ship.

just remember you gotta pay ebay, paypal and shipping fees.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Crazysah:
Anything better than Ebay? I hate that site and going through all the hassle.

Any places I can trade it in for a value higher than $200?

You can try amazon bit I think it will be able the same.

I am just going to keep mines and buy a note 3 in a month and use the HTC one as a backup.
