[One (M8) Android Development] dan5001:
Puzzled!!!

Hi Everyone,

As you can see, I'm fairly new to all this but with some help, I managed to unlock, root, S-Off (Sunshine because Firewater failed), & SuperCID my straight out of the box M8. Just in case it's relevant, I was initially unable to get S-Off because my adb window wouldn't recognise the phone & because I'd missed a night's sleep trying to sort things out, I accidentally flashed ARHD v10.2 over the 3.16 bootloader/incorrect firmware version, which, obviously caused a few issues (long boot times etcetera).

However, once I'd got S-Off & SuperCID, I then flashed the 2.22.401.5 firmware (I figured I might as well use the most up-to-date version) & then re-flashed TWRP & ARHD v10.2, expecting that everything would now work fine.

Unfortunately, that's not the case! I'm getting all sorts of issues:

- Bluetooth won't re-connect to my car - when I first set it up, it fails several times before it pairs but once I'm out & get back in, it should re-connect automatically but doesn't & I have to delete the pairing & re-force it to pair again

- It won't open perfectly legitimate e-mail attachments that open fine on my One X - so far I've noticed .pdf & some .doc files

- It keeps losing apps that I've installed - they'll either disappear completely or show a greyed out Android icon with a little SD card in the bottom right corner; if I go to my Apps tab in Settings, I can't find them at all & when I go to the Play Store, it gives me the option to install them, as though I've never had them installed in the first place (I installed several apps half a dozen times yesterday!)

- I'm struggling to copy anything to the external SD card (which was the main reason I started all this in the first place.....THANKS GOOGLE!!!)

- My music app (Meridian) which, again, works fine on my One X, won't play exactly the same .mp3 files as I had on there (though occasionally it appears to be playing them, there's just no sound at all) but I have managed to get it to play .flac files. VLC, ES Media Player & Music apps will all play some file types & not others.

- My book reader won't read the same files it read on my One X.

I could go on but I'm sure I don't need to. Clearly something isn't right but I don't know where to start!

Does anyone have any ideas.....pleeeeaaaase. Any help would be much appreciated :)

p.s. Please see my adb getvar all results below, which, I hope, confimrs I'm on the correct firmware etcetera

p.p.s. I'm going away on holiday this evening, so getting this sorted out by then would be great but I don't expect miracles. It's more so that if you respond & I don't reply, you'll know why. Thanks.
