[Verizon HTC One (M8)] bjamerican:
I have found that tapping the screen 3 times (instead of 2) will usually wake the screen while it is laying on a desk. Just use a little bit of force on the first tap... It seems like an accelerometer needs to detect motion before the screen digitizer wakes up.

This would still be a nice feature request, though I have a feeling it won't be possible without having a significant effect on battery life.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] A.L.2009:
Three taps with the phone laying flat has been working for me as well.

Have u checked out xposed, with sense 6 toolbox? Also, there are many other modules u can download and set up.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] shortstuff_mt:
I would love to see an advanced reboot menu.

Edit: There is an option in the Sense 6 toolkit for Xposed that enables the advanced reboot menu.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] :
30/45 step volume mod. The xposed module is broken in Sixth Sense
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Sevinex:
Try GravityBox instead, it works for my M8.

EDIT: I don't know how many steps it allows, but I know it is more then originally given in stock Sense.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] tanium:
just new

A Rom that don't have a description that reads.

Aosp or staying true to Google or pure stock.

If we wanted pure stock just remove bloat and your done no need for a Rom.

If we wanted Google experience we should get a Google experience phone.

This m8 is HTC and 6.0

1 It would be nice to see some crazy stuff. Like animations in the drop down.

Sourcery galaxy nexus had this.

2 custom docks

3 all built in theme your own Rom, not just put clock in the center and add am pm.

Total icon and status bar control color and appearance from with in the Rom not needing a separate app.

All built in not on a server. So what the Rom will be 3 gigs who cares.

Most of the time I'm very content.

Bless all the devs and themers that we have been flashing there work since the droid x.

It's just time for a super dev to create something wicked.

The aosp thing has just been way over done this phone is so fast aosp is not needed.

Basically says I'm a new dev I have downloaded aosp renamed it to killer Rom and here you go enjoy.

We need a Rom that don't turn our M8 into the last 10 phone's.

The greatest idea ever as a request.

New stuff! Cool! Stuff different. As in not just like the phone I just gave away :)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] :
Sadly GB doesn't work either. You will receive extra volume steps in the UI, but the amount of actual volume levels remains the same.

Instead of adding real volume steps the phone now goes:

1-1-2-2-3-3-4-4 etc etc
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Sevinex:
Lol, my apologies, I only briefly played around with GB's media tweaks, though I guess I should have noticed this anyways. Good to know for future reference! :good:
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] :
No worries, thanks for trying to help.

There is a new issue HTC introduced that breaks all of the previous Xposed tweaks. And development stopped on the original hack... So right now we're kinda SOL.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Bhodi:
I would first like to give mad props to HTC for allowing the boot loader to be unlocked on this device. I knows its a small thing but the fact they provide this from their site is great. I wish more companies would do this.

I have a simple feature request.

Have App Ops enabled by default.:good:

I know you can get this by rooting and flashing roms but I think there is too much demand for this and it should be available to everyone regardless if they are running stock or not.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] eikast:
I would like the ten attempts to unlock device (password) before delete data feature removed. So stupid. If you have someone close to you who's pissed off at you they could easily mess with you. Luckily Cerberus takes pictures of failed attempts and emails it to me
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] smokawhat:
1. Add more options to how long to wait befor locking phone. Right now you can only set it up to 15min.

2. Make it so you can have Google be your default contact save when adding a contact.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] deeznuts:
For #2 you can. Just first contact u ever save will not so select Google. Then every contact you Save after that first even after a full reboot will save to Google by default ;). At least for me running viper 1.6 Rom but believe it did this too on stock Rom out of the box.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] smokawhat:
I have tried this and it didn't work for me... I am still stock and am thinking of rooting. Never done it befor and this is my first android..
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] deeznuts:
Oh well then not sure. I remember it working stock for me and root won't change this feature. I just press random numbers in dialer, hit save contact, New contact, Google save is already there as default. Then again, my phone book is 100% only from Google, maybe that is why?

Root and s off are easy as pie. Just be sure to read the threads throughout first if deciding to do so, keep u ahead of the game if something goes wrong for whatever reason. Worst comes to worse there's a stock ruu here u can always flash or sideload to recover urself as a fail safe. We really got spoiled with the amount of dev work that's been out into this device and it hasn't even been out for a few months now!!!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] smokawhat:
Hmm well I'm 100% Google contacts too.. and I tried the samething you did...

You say you're running viper 1.6 Rom what does that mean?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] deeznuts:
Just the custom Rom I'm using. Need to be s off with custom recovery to flash custom roms. Just figured I'd mention the Rom I'm using if it helped.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] smokawhat:
Is this Rom considered a stock Rom?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] deeznuts:
No, the opposite. The most stable and customizable Rom available for our device and all variants of it! Look in the development section of this device and you'll see the Rom thread ;)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] awareunlikeu:
This would make for a near perfect device for me

I REALLY REALLY want to be able to have pure AOSP/ Cyanogenmod/ GPE Rom that has Blinkfeed when you swipe left, the Dot View Case working, and the tap to wake features. I would also like the battery saver and extreme battery saver cooked in but those I can live without since AOSP/Cyanogenmod are usually very good in the battery life department. I know its far fetched but that would make for a nearly perfect device for me personally. One can always Hope.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] wtoj34:
Directory updated along with a separate area for any and all solutions we currently have. My goal is that some ROM devs or xposed devs will somehow see this and make these small quirks solvable for the average user. Thanks to all who are suggesting fixes :good:
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] smokawhat:
I meant add more time befor phone locks , ie 1hr 2hr 4hrs...

Not more time before phone screen turns off...

Camera not working after installing JBX-Kernel-3.0 anyone knows if one of them works or what may be the problem. ROM works fine and Kernel seems to work but after install kernel camera app keep dark and close. I uninstall JBX and all goes back to normal. Just want to use the features of JBX with this ROM.
[Motorola Atrix 2] noranora:
Perhaps you use newer version of jbx hence brakes the camera. I remember jbx used to brake camera after hd record implemented. Try to find and use jbx version (prior to some date which I don't remember. Can be found on jbx thread) to use jbx without broken camera. Good luck.

How do I flash them? Do I have to flash via command prompt or can I flash via recovery?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
most are available through a flashable zip, those you can flash via your recovery. very few arent meant for all to use and are kept in a .img format, so those you flash via command line(but can flash via the flashify app as well).

I been using Ram mounts on my bike for quite some time

for mobile and cup holder.. its very sturdy and amazing

a lil expensive but worth the money.
[General Accessories] CODENEX:
Thanks for this detailed review. Ordered RAM Suction Base mount with X-Grip for phablets. I think it can hold the Note 4 with UAG Case rigidly without having any button issue. Have you tried mounting the Note 4 on UAG Case, How does it hold?

Thanks.
[General Accessories] DanSnare:
Ram Mount has incredibly poor customer service. Evan is not helpful, and he essentially blocks access to escalation.

Founder Jeff Carnevali insulates himself from customers.

Sales Director Wade Hickson plays word games and is not at all helpful.

The company filters out and deletes negative comments and reviews on Facebook. Pretty shameful.

Hi I have checked previous posts and cant seem to find the help i need

I have been using my 02 mini for about 12 months and for some reason now I cannot hear out of the earpiece on the phone.

When i make a call the other person on the end of the call can hear me but I cannot hear them.

The only way i can hear them is to plug in an ear piece into the ear jack ( a wired earpiece)

Can someone please help me as this is driving me crazy)

Thank you in anticipation

There is a HUGE differrence between the audio circuits of Himalaya and Magician,,,Himalaya has a common Ringer/Speaker and Ear Piece while Magician has a seperate Ear Piece..

The lack of sound in ear peice is actually due to a bad design..

well u can try pressing the upper left corner while conversation and check if u get a sound..else go to a propoer service center and hv it replaced..
[General Topics] oldsap:
maybe the earpiece's terminals are not in contact with your board. If you have opened your Mini before, try checking them out.

[Droid Ultra Accessories] zerogun:
Sadly, there is no tempered glass love for the MAXX... but the Moto X has a ton on ebay. What gives?!?
[Droid Ultra Accessories] br0adband:
The Moto X is the only phone that matters because it's not a Droid and not basically tied to Verizon like the Droid Ultra/MAXX/Mini happen to be.

Just sheer economics at work: the Moto X is available from multiple carriers and is more popular because of that fact, so it will obviously make more money for companies that create accessories for that phone.

Hell, I went into a Verizon store the other day looking for a screen protector for my Mini - that's Verizon, the company that sells the damned phone in the first place - and they were like "We don't have any accessories for the Mini..." and they didn't. Not one thing for the Mini at all, which is pretty damned messed up in my opinion.

I don't know what kind of contract Verizon made long ago with Motorola for the Droid lineup, but I sure as hell wish it would come to an end soon.
[Droid Ultra Accessories] akellar:
Your first mistake was going into a Verizon store looking for anything. I can't count how many different ways Verizon makes their stores totally worthless.
[Droid Ultra Accessories] br0adband:
Well they list the accessories online at their website and it says available in their retail outlets so... just glad I don't actually purchase stuff from Verizon I suppose. ;)
[Droid Ultra Accessories] jfriend33:
People will say they don't exist. But I know for a fact that at one point last year they did. Best Buy or some store like that my friend in Indiana was able to buy a tempered glass protector for his droid maxx. I have searched high and low and made many calls, but no luck.
[Droid Ultra Accessories] reggie14:
At work I just got an iPhone, so I ordered a tempered glass screen protector to go with it.

I didn't see what the big deal was until I actually got it. This thing is great. I really wish someone sold one for the Droid Maxx. I'm sure it's too late now, though.
[General Questions and Answers] pixel9:
Hello, this is what I've tried:

1.Root YunOS with "framaroot.apk" --> no success (so I can't flash a new recovery with "Mobileuncle_MTK_Tools 20140111v2.9.9.apk")

2.Root the phone with program --> no success (certainly it's because there is no usb debugging mode in Aliyun OS).

3.Flash the phone with "MTK flashtool" (Sp flash tool) --> I can only flash the original AliYunOS rom in download mode.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1982587

with Android roms I get the scatter file problem: "pmt changed for the rom it must be downloaded"

http://www.needrom.com/phone-roms/umi/umi-cross/

3.1.Replace the recovery in the Yunos rom with the cwm recovery and flash only the recovery --> playing with the battery, I saw the cwm recovery one time for 2 seconds but the phone continue the starting procedure. Afther that I can only access the Yunos testing recovery.

3.2.Replace the scatter file from an Android rom with the scatter file from Aliyunos and flash with Android rom --> phone still booting for more than 15 minutes. So I flashed the yunos rom again.

4.Flash an Android rom with Sp flash tool in "firmware update mode" --> problem with the preloader: bricked phone. I flashed the yunos rom again to save the phone.

5.Install ADB drivers then launch "MtkDroidTools" --> Android adb device not found error (so apparently I can't create a scatter file with MtkDroidTools).

What other options are available? I'm in dispute with the seller because the phone was supposed to be in Android version with multilingual and Google play.

Thank you for proposing a debut of solution.

Partitions problem

In Sp flash tool, I did a format+download to avoid the "pmt changed for the rom it must be downloaded" error. I installed this rom (the flashable version):

needrom.com/mobile/umi-cross-c1/

But there are 2 problems:

1. the IMEI are invalid with this Android rom --> should be resolved with "Mobileuncle_MTK_Tools" (but I didn't try, because of the 2nd problem)

2. the partitions are not right: 5GB for the applications and 1.3GB for internal SDcard. In Aliyun I have 25GB storage.

So I flash it again with the Aliyun OS rom:

needrom.com/mobile/umi-cross

I read that there could be problems with "SP flash tool" using version 3.x with scatter file bigger than 1KB or using version 5.x with scatter files less than 1KB. For me only SP flash tool 5.x works good.

So if someone have a suggestion to try to solve the storage partition problem, I'll be very happy. Thanks in advance.
[General Questions and Answers] pixel9:
Bye Bye YunOS

Hello, to solve the storage partition problem, just erase the internal SD: the 23GB are back.

For the IMEI are invalid problem, install "Mobileuncle_MTK_Tools":

youtube.com/watch?v=4gRAlf--D8E

Sim1: at+egmr=1 7 "35xxxxxxxxxxxxx"

Sim2: at+egmr=1 10 "35xxxxxxxxxxxxx"

Start imei by 35 or 36 (total 15 digits)

but before I needed to flash an other ROM with the recovery cause the "settings" crashes.

The phone is working good now with android, the only small problem is that you need to enter the IMEI after every "factory restore".

WeChat is a fun and useful program that everyone I know uses... and I guess nobody cares about this issue but me, but its a serious issue

Wechat can never be prevented from launching on start up, even from Super User... no matter what, it just pops right back onto the list of start up applications immediately after its disabled

you can end the running process, end the cached process, use several task managers to prevent it from running or starting at boot.. but nothing ever works

and as soon as you get a message from someone, your phone message light starts blinking and a wechat icon appears in the taskbar.. even when there was no sign of the program even active at all

and i've found even worse violations from other chinese programs like tudou, youku, sohu, etc.. their programs will actually not start at boot, but suddenly appear with messages and news feeds in your information bar, and will even start downlaoding media to your phone without your permission

any idea how I can sever wechats malicious control & permissions violations and stop it from booting, and also prevent messages when the app hasnt been launched?

i've literally tried everything

thanks

everything is blocked in China, no facebook, no twits, no anything

wechat is the one tool i can connect with all the people I know.. and literally every single person in China uses it..

a lot of my overseas friends in Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and North America also use it too, because they know or have known people in China

so.. I'll keep using it anyway, since its the main use for my phone anyway.. but I'd like to break free from its grasp a bit

I feel its a Government spy program, but private manufacturers in China are equally as deliberately intrusive & invasive programmers, so who knows

its from Tencent, the company which gained infamy for its unremovable Tencent QQ toolbar virus for windows

i hate the company, but need the program, unfortunately

Please find the 2 latest firmware for the galaxy Tab 3 SM-T217S for Sprint.

Flash through Odin 3.09 ONLY. It ill stay on boot for atleast 5 to 10mins [Be Patient]

Not responsible if you brick your phone because you don't know what you were doing.

Not taking credit for this since it's pretty easy to do and I did not see a thread related to this :cool:

If you happen to mess up your wifi capability, this firmware will also fix it so you won't have to take it back to your nearby store <-- I am a living proof :)

Firmware: NB8

I have the firmwares since it first came out on my site as well.... and made STOCK ODEX NOT ROOTED roms... Im on firmware MH9.. when I flash my NB8 roms wifi isn't working,

You can confirm using ODIN and flashing the new firmware wifi works without issues.. that is my question... can you still root the NB8..

that is why I haven't done ODIN yet, on the NB8.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] tones160:
Pretty neat dude. well yes, i can definitely confirm that i can still root my NB8. In fact i did but only 1 issue and it wasn't the wifi. My issue was the GPS was not being accurate so i reflashed the stock firmware. I updated OTA to NB8 not through ODIN so I'm uncertain why your wifi didn't work. The only time my wifi didn't work was when i tried flashing Mijjaj's custom ROM :rolleyes: and the only way to get it back was reflashing the stock firmware because not even my nand backup would fix it. Can you relate?
