You should definitely research on how to root and know what risks are involved before you try this.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Smitti086:
Hi All,

Firstly sorry as I know this must be covered somewhere, i just seem to keep going around in circles as to what I need to do to resolve the random reboots and signal issues I am experiencing after flashing the 4.2.0 Team VenomXL ROM.

From what I have read I need to update my HBoot as im currently on 1.14.002

My understanding is i need to be SuperCID, S-Off etc before I can update the HBoot and Radio.?

I have a Telstra HTC one XL with the following:

Tampered

Unlocked

EVITA PVT SHIP S-ON XL

HBOOT 1.14.0002

RADIO- 0.20os.32.09.15

OpenDSp-V29.1.0.45.0622

eMMC-boot

Jun 11 2012.14: 36.28

TWRP 2.3.1.0

My CID is TELST001

Am i correct in needing to SuperCID first then (Tried a program but exploit didn't work)

I have tried a handful of different app's and different methods but cant seem to get any further.

Even tried the CleanROM instead but couldn't get past boot screen even after flashing new Boot.img

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks again
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] CyanJustice:
I would say yes, you need to update your hboot and radio to the latest htc update, which can be found in the One Android Development forum, yes you'll need SuperCID and S-Off to do that, it's just a rule of thumb to have those taken care of anyway. Good luck!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
TWRP version is extremely outdated, so that is likely why CleanROM won't install properly. Update to the current version (2.7).

However, CleanROM 7 will give you the same problems (random reboot and signal drops) as the Sense 5 base is the issue. You need to update the entire firmware package, not just the hboot (the radio is likely the root cause). And to do that, you needs s-off, as you have already figured out.

You need to use the hex edit method in order to get SuperCID on your version: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=41640260&postcount=2

Apps or toolkits for this phone will likely fail to get SuperCID, as they are intended for the AT&T version (since SuperCID is needed on the AT&T version just to unlock bootloader). Since they look for the AT&T CID, they don't find it on your device, and the process fails.

After SuperCID, you may use Facepalm to s-off. Alternately, you can use Rumrunner or Firewater to s-off, as these methods do NOT require SuperCID as a prerequisite. All these methods can be found on my Index thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1671237

I would say start with Rumrunner, as its likely the easiest solution for your specific case.

Once you have s-off, you can use Turge's instruction to install the 2.15 firmware: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=45072132&postcount=1
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
I'd say the easiest solution is the following:

1. Get s-off via Rumrunner.

2. Get SuperCID by issuing this fastboot command:

fastboot oem writecid 11111111

3. Update to the 2.15 firmware package found in the first post of this thread.

This is the easiest method because it means you don't need to mess around with hex editing your CID to get SuperCID. The Rumrunner s-off method is very easy and over you have s-off getting SuperCID is as simple as using the command I mentioned. From there updating your firmware is a piece of cake and you should suffer no more problems.

I use Spotify for music on my M8, and while I've searched all over for a solution I just can't figure this out. When I receive a notification, the music pauses indefinitely. Only when I clear the notification does the music resume. This is contrary to every other Android device I've ever owned, where putting the device on silent or vibrate would stop the music from pausing at all. I've never had one that didn't resume a second or two later.

So, does anybody have any advice for me on this? Thanks in advance!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Gator Brah:
I use Spotify religiously and have never seen that happen. Thats nuts mate, GL
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] pettigrew95:

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] mattcooksey1:
Thanks for the reply, I gave that a shot but nothing. I did realize though that it only happens on Bluetooth, not with headphones attached. I'm all out of ideas.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Gator Brah:
There is a setting or option somewhere (cant think of exactly where atm) that disallows apps to read notifications. Try disabling that if you can find it. Sounds like notifications are stealing the audio focus from spotify
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] mattcooksey1:
Thanks again for trying to help. I know exactly what you're talking about, but I can't find it on the stock ROM either. Either HTC must have removed the ability to do that, or Google did in 4.4.2. Anyway, thanks again. I guess I'll just cross my fingers that they've fixed it in the new version of Spotify that is supposed to come out soon.

Yes thi metod work for me but, you don't use stock kernel, if you install a recovery on kk you must install a custom kernel, i suggest furnace 2.0!

Why??

If all he wants is root, ioroot is all he needs! 24 for 4.2.2, or 25 for 4.4.2.

I don't know but with original kernel with custom recovery i had a bootloop, when I flashed the kernel furnace, the rom boot!
[G2 General] robogo1982:
Who said he has a custom recovery? All he mentioned was that he's on stock Kitkat.

Please, people, be careful with your instructions and read or you might help someone in bricking their device!
[G2 General] krispy1:
Yes read things 3x over to be sure.

To clarify for people

If you want just ROOT you DO NOT need custom kernal

If you want ROOT and CUSTOM RECOVERY you DO need custom kernal
[G2 General] player911:
Yea for root, you just use IORoot25.

A recovery requires flashing a custom kernel and aboot that is exploitable. Supposedly nothing changed between JB and KK with the aboot except LG patched the exploit Loki used.
[G2 General] marshygeek:
Sir i have one clear question:

I have Stock Kernel, Stock Kitkat, Stock Recovery. STOCK. If i want a custom recovery i should root using 25, flash furnace then flash Philz? Or custom recovery for KK is not yet available?
[G2 General] robogo1982:
Here is the answer:
[G2 General] brambi42:
I WANT only a root, but i have NOT a recovery and I'm from a stock kitkat without root on precedent version.

Finally, can I use this method?
[G2 General] robogo1982:
Yes! Unless you have a T-mobile US version. It does not work for it yet.
[G2 General] seemyweb:
Are you sure to do not have a recovery? Did you try to write via ADB: "ADB reboot recovery" ?

If you go to recovery, flash kk_root.zip inside ioroot25 file and you solve your problems.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hallogram:
First of all, Hello!

I'm pretty sure this is in vain but let's give it a try :)

Tablet: Nexus 7 (2012) Wi-Fi

Product name: grouper

Variant: grouper

HW version: ER3

Bootloader version: 4.23

Baseband version: N/A

Lock State: Locked

The tablet has USB Debugging OFF.

Powering up the tablet gets to Google logo with the 4 options in the upper right corner: Start / Restart bootloader / Recovery mode / Power off.

In Recovery mode I get the following on the screen:

E:failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log

E:failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

E:failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_install

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_install

E:failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)

Using wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition is pointless as this just hangs, if not plugged in will stay like this until the battery is out.

In this state the device is recognized in ADB as sideload

As USB debugging is OFF no ADB commands can be used, just adb sideload.

---

Using Power+Volume Up+Volume Down I can get to FASTBOOT mode.

Following the guide to unlock the bootloader and flash the stock firmaware fails.

Using fastboot oem unlock returns:

(bootloader) erasing userdata...

(bootloader) erasing userdata done

(bootloader) erasing cache...

(bootloader) erasing cache done

(bootloader) unlocking...

FAILED (remote: (Unknown error code))

finished. total time: 3.976s

Using fastboot reboot-bootloader will get me to APX mode and the tablet is no longer detected by ADB or FASTBOOT.

I have searched everywhere and the best answer I could find is that this is a hardware failure, a NAND problem.

Any other ideas would be appreciated. :D
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exglynco:
If you can't unlock the bootloader, you're hosed. You can find used 16GB motherboards for $35, and used 32GB motherboards for $50 on eBay. That's how I rescued my N7 from APX limbo.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain Sweatpants:
You are exactly right there that is all the symptoms of a corrupted nand partition.

Basically the memory on the motherboard is unreadable and unwritable

As [MENTION=4961810]exglynco[/MENTION] said the only fix is a new motherboard
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exglynco:
At this point, you have nothing to lose by trying a NAND reset. Look up the chip specifications, and short pins CE and RB, or CE and RE while powering up.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain Sweatpants:
That's interesting I haven't heard of that before are you talking about shorting out the CPU?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hallogram:
OK, that's new :D thank you for the info. I will look this up an most probably will try it.

I'll get back with details after the weekend. :)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exglynco:
Not the CPU, but the Hynix h26m64002dqr e-NAND. I haven't tried it on a Nexus 7, but have had good results resetting Micron 29f64f08cbaaa NAND on other devices. OP, the NAND is the big chip on the underside of the motherboard where it makes the L corner. The pins are all hidden, and I didn't find a pinout, so I guess (since you've got nothing to lose) I'd try shorting each pair of the 25 pins accessible on the upper side of the motherboard outside the long metal cover opposite its beveled edge.

Shorting CE and RB, or sometimes CE and RE, puts NAND into MASK ROM state, allowing successful flashing when all else fails.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] memphislawyer:
I have the same exact screen when I come to it, same messages as the original post. I hit the recovery mode button and then it goes straight to the GOOGLE screen. I either get the google screen or sometimes, if I plug in my charger, thats it. thats all I get.

I took it to Best Buy and they say its not the battery. They told me to come here and ask about it. All I ever did was let it update. Never rooted it, never did anything else, never really downloaded anything on to it. Im kinda a newbie when it comes to playing around with stuff, so if I have to download something, and do something, Im kinda gonna need instructions.

I also have it connected via cable to the usb drive on the front of my computer and the computer will not recognize it. read that thread and I dont think I can get into the nexus via the computer and if the computer does not recognize it, i am at a complete loss as to what to do

I can get to the android on his back. If I press the volume key, i can switch between power off, start, recovery mode and restart bootloader. if I press the power key and hold it a few seconds while it is on restart bootloader, it will power off and come back to the google screen and then immediately go back to the android. If I do start, it goes back to google screen. If I do recovery mode, also to google screen

I read some posts and it might be a motherboard? is that going to be something easy to replace or what?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exglynco:
First,, try using a USB 2.0 port that's directly connected to the motherboard (usually a rear port). Then get the Android SDK or a root toolkit from Wugfresh or skipsoft to see if you can communicate with your N7 via Fastboot
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexhalbi:
I have the same issue.

[Shield Q&A] DoctorBeat:
I recently bought an Xperia Play specifically to use for emulators.

This has been great, as I got it cheap ($27 shipped) and I've had reasonably good luck with finding good emulators for the systems that I want.

I also have an Ouya, which I again bought with the express intention of using just for emulators, and that has been reasonably successful too.

Playing the Xperia Play on the go is nice, but when I'm on my lunch break in the office, I'd like something with a bigger screen and less hand-cramping controls. You might say that it is TOO portable, ie the small size that makes it so good for the pocket is too much of a compromise where pocket-ability is not the main priority.

Enter the Shield.

I first thought that the shield was rather ugly, and that its size would make it cumbersome, but I have now come to appreciate function over form, and since I always have a bag with me at work, the bulkiness isn't so much of a problem.

Like most people right now, I can't just pull a couple of hundred bucks out of my ***, so if I'm going to spend that amount of money on a toy, I need to make sure that it's going to suit my needs.

I'd like to get some opinions about what the shield is like as an emulation device, specifically the lack of a menu button.

All of the emulators that I currently use make heavy use of the menu button, so I'm curious about how to get around this.

Do the emulators have to be specific to the shield, or will the ones I currently use on my Xperia Play and Ouya work ok with some button mapping?

Also, since I often emulate computer-based machines such as the ZX Spectrum, C64 and Atari ST, would it be easy enough to use a bluetooth or usb keyboard with the shield?
[Shield Q&A] eksasol:
The Shield is a superb emulating device. You won't need to worry about menu button, if you have been keeping up with stock Android, you will know that it does not come with dedicated menu button by design. Menu button is something manufacturers added .

Generally when you press the back button on the Shield, it will bring up the pop up menu, or pause the game and bring you back to the app menu.

All the well made emulators are smart and can auto detect controller, so they will all automatically detect the nVidia Shield and assign the buttons.

Normally, the A and B buttons on the Shield are used for Cancel and Accept, but while in the game, it will be disabled and follow the app's assigned function.
[Shield Q&A] DoctorBeat:
Thanks for the info.

I have a couple of emulators on my Xperia Play that just close when the back button is pressed. I can't remember offhand, but I know for sure that Marvin (ZX Spectrum emulator) does, because I sometimes accidentally hit the back button while playing.

That may well be due to the way the emulator is set up for the Xperia Play in particular, or it could be something that I can remap.

I can't check right now because I left the thing at work!

It's mostly the ZX Spectrum, BBC Micro, and Amstrad CPC emulators that I am concerned about.

The problem is that, although I am English, I now live in America. This means that I have a strong desire to be able to emulate those three machines, but they are practically unheard of here in the States. Since the Shield hasn't been released in the UK, there won't be any Brits developing emulators with dedicated Shield support.

Machines such as the C64, NES, SNES, Genesis Playstation an N64 should be a breeze, as they are well known and loved this side of the pond.

Thank you again for your reply.

I think I now have the confidence to go ahead and buy a Shield despite my concerns. I'll get those emulators working one way or another!
[Shield Q&A] eksasol:
If you take out the A and B buttons, you still have 8 other ones, by pressing down on the analog sticks, Y and X, L1 and 2 and R1 and 2. A few emulators can't detect L2 and R2 though.

sent via tapatalk
[Shield Q&A] DoctorBeat:
Are you saying that any button can be mapped to function as a menu button?

I know not all emulators allow for this, but I think I read that the Shield has sone kind of mapping feature.

As you can probably tell, I'm quite new to Android, and even the differences between different Android devices (eg. my Ouya and my Xperia Play) can be quite dramatic.

I've been using Linux on all of my computers for nearly a decade, so I should be used to these types of differences by now!
[Shield Q&A] eksasol:
You can remap the console's menu button to any buttons, but not the Android OS menu button.

The only reason you find a dramatic difference between the Play and the Ouya is because they both use their own custom UI. Stock Android UI is a consistent experience across all devices that uses it. If you want to get used to how stock Android actually work then you need to accept that there is no physical menu buttons, in fact no menu button in the onscreen navigational bar either. Menu buttons are usually a 3 dots button in a corner of an app. Though you could use custom roms that let you assign menu buttons like CyanogenMod, which is not available for this device, but it is for the Play and Ouya.

The Shield have an integrated button mapping system that let you map a part of the screen to the controller's buttons. It won't help you create a system wide menu button though.

sent via nvidia shield
[Shield Q&A] DoctorBeat:
Right, I think I understand now.

I'm not really bothered about a system-wide menu button, so long as I can access the features of the emulators. If that requires individual mapping with each emulator, that's fine.

Can't wait to get my Shield!
