[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deepak2001:
I own a Nexus 5, the thing is I just installed Facebook on it.

But, I still get the old skeuomorphic detailed UI.

My friend has another Phone, and he has the Flat UI for the app.

Both the apps are on the same version.

Can anyone give me an insight to what's happening?

Thanks
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d3xt3r:
The design is server controlled. Part of their beta program. They randomly select people with the update design. They'll shortly make it public after sometime I guess

I updated 48 hours ago.

Horrible battery.

I used to charge about twice in 3 days.

Usually my battery lasts a day and half.

Now It does not last more than 10 hours.

I had 50% left when I sleep and 5% when I wake up.

Bluetooth took 36% batter. Usually my screen use to eat battery.

Will see few more charge cycle before I go back to 4.1

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ShawnSnyder1991:
i cannot for the LIFE of me get a straight answer.

Do HTC devices lose the flash to another carrier (PagePlus) if I install a new rom or anything?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Shredder87:
Naw. I'm also a fellow Page Plus user and I didn't lose my flash, even after the update to the bootloader. I did do it through Captains update instead of the official RUU I dunno if that makes a difference. I do know that if you're S-ON and you decide to run Moonshine or Runrunner to get S-OFF then you will lose your flash.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ShawnSnyder1991:
so lemme get this straight, if i purchase the htc rezound, flash, then s-off, ill lose flash?

also, will this method work and still have flash?

http://unlimited.io/juopunutbear.htm
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Shredder87:
I would assume it's correct since it happened with my evo, so I would suggest s-off first, then proceed with flashing the phone. That method is a more complicated way of getting s-off and I believe they mentioned they only fully support it though linux.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] srinia:
Agree with Shredder. I recently flashed my Evo 4g lte to page plus and had the same problem when i did the FacePalm S-OFF routine. Lost my pageplus flash. Had to do the flash procedure again.

Later i realized i had to update the radio to install most kitkat ROMs.

Had to follow Captain_throwback's steps here for that.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2639180

I thought i might loose the pageplus flash after this, but did not happen. My pageplus flash was intact after upgrading the radio version using the above. After upgrading the radio, yday i installed the Slimkat rom and everything is working as of now.

I have to mention i do not have 3g yet. Only voice and sms,
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jesseinsf:
no 3g after S-OFF :(

Same thing happened to me when I S-OFF. I only have voice and sms. MMS seems to only work on 3g which I only can get 1x. Let me know how you get 3gwhen you get it, because I tried everything I did before that got me 3g but no success this time. :(
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gamul1:
Hi All

I have a 1st edition Xoom, WiFi, that I bought in March of 2011. I never rooted it before but am considering doing it now if it is still feasible. It looks like my current Android version is 4.1.2.

One thing - due to my work email, they made me encrypt the tablet. I hated it the moment I did it because it slowed it down quite a bit. But its done and there does not seem to be an option to un do it, unless rooting it will. I am ok with that as I do not need that email on this device. But is rooting an option with an encrypted tablet? Is it the same process? Does it change anything?

So - my questions are:

Is it still feasible to root this tablet?

Is this page this the latest/greatest Root for the Xoom?

[**]http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1010568

What version of Android would I have once done?

Any other factors I need ot consider?

I rooted my phone a few years ago and it was straight forward. But I do not want to end up with a 10.1 inch brick.

Thanks.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superbay:
How did you encrypt the tablet anyway?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gamul1:
Its been a few years so its fuzzy. I think it was in the settings under security. But at the time I followed some directions. It took over night to do. Now when I go to settings I see the encryption option but it does nothing.

Un. Encryption is not the reason I want to root. The device is slow and I hear I may be able to speed it up a bit. Plus, there is a game that crashed the tablet because of the tegra 2 chip and k read some steps on making a change that prevents the crash.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superbay:
Then dont hesitate and go for it
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matt4321:
May I add that rooting will need an unlocked bootloader which will wipe /data so you'd loose everything
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gamul1:
I am ok with that. I was just trying to figure out if this older tablet that was encrypted can be rooted. And, if the thread I referenced was the latest still. It is a couple years old so I was not sure that meant the android OS was old or updated or if there was a newer thread somewhere I can't find.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matt4321:
what android version are you on? this will help me tell you through how to root
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gamul1:
According to my settings page, my Android version is 4.1.2.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matt4321:
Are you familiar with fastboot/adb?

you need to unlock your bootloader using

fastboot oem unlock

then you need to flash a custom recovery, I suggest this one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1782235

use the command:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

then

fastboot reboot

upon rebooting when you see the motorola logo, wait about 2 seconds, then you need to press the volume down button, then volume up to select android recovery.

Once in recovery you will need to flash this file to gain root:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=30464067&postcount=408

After all this you will have Android 4.1.2 with a custom recovery and root access, from now on it will be easy to swap between ROMs, android versions etc.

Always make a backup ;)
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gamul1:
Thanks! I will give this a try. A few other questions around this:

1. Will the device still be encrypted once this is done?

2. If not - do you know if it is possible to fool the mail program into thinking it is still encrypted?

Thanks!
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matt4321:
The device will no longer be encrypted, all data is wiped anyway.

You can re-encrypt the device though by going to settings>security>encryption>encrypt tablet
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gamul1:
Thanks! But if I go this route I won't want it encrypted again. I was just curious if being rooted there was a way to fool it. Sort of a best of both worlds thing. But no more encryption for me again. It killed this thing the first time.

Hey, total android newbie here and I'm trying to wrap my head around all of this.

I'm currently s-off and bootloader is unlocked (im running stock rom). Unfortunately I was stupid and didn't make a backup of anything before I did all of this. Is this going to be a problem in the future?

I'm not having any problems with my phone but I jumped too quick into this whole thing and I absolutely hate not understanding how to revert back/unroot my phone if need be.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] dragontology:
Thanks for all this. I just watched, like five of those videos. The guy knows his stuff, he's got a good recording setup, and he skips a lot of BS.

I'm not new to Android but I am new to HTC. Let me see if I basically have this right:

1. Use Weaksauce and install SuperSU to temp root the M8.

2. Use Firewater (installed via adb) to turn security off (gain S-Off; unlock the bootloader)

3. Use adb to push a recovery

4. Remove Weaksauce, SuperSu, and Firewater. Push a recovery .IMG to device. Boot to recovery, flash SuperSU .zip from recovery.

5. Nandroid to back up stock setup, then flash whatever.

I wonder if the people here not replying to you means they won't reply to me either... But I'm learning too, and I think I got your answer.

On Samsung there was always a factory image we could flash using Samsung's Odin flashing tool and that would put it at stock. XDA seems to have something similar, a factory image that is flashed with adb. Instructions here. And it seems that would put you one step away from stock. You'd still have S-off (security off). If there's a way to go from S-off to S-on (put security back on) I don't know and haven't heard. But if it's ever been off, can you really trust that it's on? So maybe you can't? Not sure on that.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Tomsgt:
You nailed it and you can use a RUU to restore instead of odin
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] berndblb:
You got it mostly right, except in step 3 you use fastboot to flash the recovery to your phone, not adb.

To turn S-on is risky and unnecessary - even for warranty repairs.

Alright, I'll re-read. Doing this Monday. Still trying to decide on a ROM. I'd be all over the GPE ROM, but I'm having a hard time understanding Verizon roaming even from Verizon. Is a Verizon phone capable of roaming, either on Sprint or US Cellular? US Cellular roams on the other two, but I don't think it goes the other way. If a Verizon phone absolutely can't roam, then the GPE ROM's roaming bug is a moot point. If it can... Verizon wasn't even out here a couple years ago. Now, their coverage stomps US Cellular's, but I could still get caught on a US Cellular tower. They used to be the de facto cellular carrier out here (eastern North Carolina). LiquidSmooth was my favorite on my last phone, but it doesn't support the duo camera. I haven't used that feature yet, so I'm not sure how big of a deal that'll be. It would be nice to have full camera support since the m8 has a weird camera. I might even be happy with a minimalistic Sense ROM, especially if the GravityBox features I want work on it. Bonus points if I can use my DPI changer app and Softkeyz. Guess I'll try a few things.

If I get a verizon htc one m8 today can I still do all these things? I ask because when I got the verizon s4 before I got it I checked the forums and saw that they were full of talks about new ROMs and all that good ****, but when I got the phone I found out that all the custom recovery, flashing, etc only worked up until a certain OTA update and after that there was no way you could do any of those things. So before I order this phone can someone please confirm for me that recovery, flashing ROMs, etc is still possible if I get the phone now. thanks
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] silver04v:
You can yes. Instead of firewater, you may need to use the app sunshine to get soff and it cost 25 bucks. Worth it though to unlock your whole phone and do everything you want to it.

I just got my M8 last week, and I was able to permanent root with Weaksauce, and S-off using Firewater. No HTCdev, bootloader unlocking, or any of that. I'm still on the stock ROM and Recovery, and didn't lose any data.

Here is my question, though:

Now that I am S-off and rooted, if I use Flashify to install TWRP Recovery, will it affect my existing stock ROM? Like, will it factory reset me? I can't think of why it would, but I'm just trying to be careful.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] thunderbls:
You'll be fine don't worry : ) as always afterwards backup your stock and save elsewhere.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] silver04v:
If you're using weak sauce for root, you aren't permanent rooted. You need to flash twrp and then delete weak sauce app and super su. Then flash the newest SuperSU zip in recovery which can be found here in XDA in the SuperSU thread.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] BBEgo:

May I ask what Version KitKat and software version you are on? I just picked up an M8 on Wednesday and out of the box I was on 4.4.2 software version 1.55.605.2. I haven't had enough time to properly search or read through the M8 forms to see if I can unlock with weaksauce/firewater or purchase the sunshine licence. It's been uber busy at work recently and by the time I get home I just want to go to bed I'm so tired.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] berndblb:
You can root with Weaksauce.

Give firewater a try - it's hit and miss. According to jcase it depends on what hardware components your phone came with. If firewater doesn't work, buy Sunshine. It works on all M8 variants.
