Works on my SuperSu rooted Moto Z (XT1650-03) running 7.0 on StraightTalk (AT&T flavor). The app says it failed at first but the entitlement check screen no longer pops up and the hotspot works fine. After running the hotspot the app then reports the entitlement check bypassed! Great job and thanks for the awesome app!

Ayyyy it worked for my s8 thanks.

Do u have to use a hotspot app or can you use your stock hotspot app and does this work even if u don't have a hotspot plan
[General Questions and Answers] djfourmoney:
I've only had this phone for two days, today is day three. I recently dropped my LG Optimus G and broke the screen. Its expensive to repair and while I have the money, I want some breathing room in my accounts to spend the $160 it will cost to have it repaired.

This happen over last weekend (March 29), so I tried to come up with a plan. I could have pushed my Samsung Infuse 4G back into service, but there's some software related issue that resetting back to stock doesn't fix. I currently use it as a clock/radio/internet device in a AT&T Infuse dock.

I decided to check out some of these Go Prepaid phones since they were offering some low end Android phones. I was able to get the Radiant for $67.75 at Best Buys with a price match from Amazon. I guess I could have saved a bit more as it was $59.99 back in February.

Overall, I don't think I can do better without spending much more. It runs all the apps I use and does so fairly quickly. Its very light, lighter than the Infuse, G1 or Optimus G. Its about the same weight as my Pantech dumb phone.

The reason I posted this here is because I have a question(s).

I could easily access the Next Bus mobile website where it takes the data signal and pinpoints my location. Since I started using this phone its unable to get this data and using GPS would worsen battery life. I only use it if the cell signal is questionable, but even with (less than) two bars I can get the service and get bus times on my other phones, not this one.

I have checked all the settings and when I first used Google Chrome I allowed it to use location services. All data settings are checked, I really shouldn't have a problem.

What could be the cause here?

Multitasking doesn't work well. I was easily able to listen to a stream via bluetooth and use Chrome for browsing on the other phones, but not this one. I picked it because it has a Snapdragon Dual Core CPU, unlike the Avail 2 which is still single core.

When attempting to do what I'm accustom to doing, I find that tapping the home button closes the app completely (Beyond Pod) and it has to be restarted to continue listening to the stream. This doesn't happen on either of my other phones, if I am listening to local file or streaming it, it just keep working until I stop playback, the file/streaming has stopped or force the app to close.

Other than that, I can deal with the slowish refresh rate of the display and the phone works great for such a cheap device.

This is the second device because I had to return the first one. The first one refuse to log onto AT&T's network.

I would seriously consider using this over my Optimus G on a upcoming trip, but if these problems are sort of baked in, I will happily return to use my Optimus for all task once its fixed.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaiden0000:
I've unlocked my Three (3) branded M8, installed TWRP and rooted my device (I've also tried out MaximusHD Rom, but decided to restore my original ROM from recovery as I couldn't get some software to load with it).

Three are now pushing out the updates for the M8 and I've tried to install it but it fails. Could someone tell me what I need to do? Back on my One X i needed to re-install stock recovery and re-lock the bootloader. Will I need to do this also?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
Only flash the stock recovery if you can get one. Relocking the bootloader is not needed.....
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaiden0000:
Thanks. I'll try that now. So I am guessing once, I've completed doing that. I can then re-flash the TWRP and I'll probably need to root the phone again. Will let you know how it goes. There is a stock recovery that someone posted previously.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaiden0000:
What you said worked perfectly, and funny enough I got the original stock recovery from your Thread. Can I ask how I would go about getting a backup of my current recovery now that I've updated my phone?

I tried what you mentioned in your thread about fastboot boot recovery recovery-name.img (yes i did put the recovery name in) but just got an error stating "cannot load 'recovery'".

Thanks for all your help.

Update: I notice that I can still boot into the system and have root even though I'm on the stock recovery, as if I go into Recovery I end up with the HTC Phone and red triangle. Does this mean there is no real reason for me to re-install TWRP? As all I really cared about was having Root.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
What you have now is the stock rom and recovery + root. No reason to flash a custom one if you don't want to flash any mods or themes.

To create a new backup you can put the custom recovery in the fastboot folder and indeed perform the command :

Fastboot boot recovery recoveryname.img

If it can't load the recovery you either typed the wrong recovery name or it's not in the fastboot folder. And the f you have a stock nand to share in my thread would be awesome ! :)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheEmpyre:
Note that the command is fastboot boot recovery.img

The 'recovery' command will not register. I did it last night :D

Also, for future reference, I can perform a factory reset with the stock recovery and it will return me to stock even if I have rooted my device? I elected not to install TWRP, but instead just run it temporarily so that I could root leaving my stock recovery intact. Seems like a pretty straightforward answer which is 'yes' but just want to clarify. I have the stock ROM installed (AT&T)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
Fastboot boot recovery recovery.img

Yes that's what i wrote right ?

Can you elaborate more on the not registered part ?

And yes factory reset will set it back to stock. Not sure if it will delete root. But all accounts and data will be gone !
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheEmpyre:
You wrote: fastboot boot recovery recovery.img

The command is: fastboot boot recovery.img (You do not need to specify the 'recovery' before 'recovery.img')

And by not register I suppose I just mean its an unknown command if you specify a partition/kernel before the 'recovery.img' portion. I'm not sure if I'm using the vocabulary correctly
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
Ah i see the mistake, thank you....was overlooking that part !
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheEmpyre:
No problem :D I meant no disrespect! I was actually surprised you don't need to specify the partition for a temporary image....From my research it looks like they have may have changed that fastboot command from Android 4.3 :confused:
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
haha disrespect ? no no all oke, i was wrong and you where right....you corrected me and thats great ! I also have to learn :good:
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaiden0000:
Mr Hofs, in my scenario where I have returned to stock recovery, installed the update from three. How would I go about backing up my current recovery? I've tried what you have done in your thread but there is no recovery file in the back up.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
Yeah that's a strange thing. The backup from fisha21 didn't have a recovery either yet the ones made by guywithdesire1992 did have ?! I'm confused about that ! Can you check certain options in twrp maybe ?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaiden0000:
Okay, will make a back up over to my computer and then try again. Will report back.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
If it doesn't work you can also try philz touch, see if there is a difference ?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaiden0000:
Yep did it with Philz touch and it now includes a recovery.img although it's filesize is 21MB compared to the regular ones. But now at least I have a backup of the recovery. Will upload to a location and post on your thread soon.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
Thats awesome ! Really appreciate it :)

So to be clear, you booted philz and made a nandroid. So the recovery should be the stock HTC one ?

One way to check is to flash the recovery.img that's in the backup folder and enter it. If it gives a phone icon its stock

Hey

When I "cast" Plex from my phone or tablet the sound is rubbish. Almost like back in the day when you watched a video on the internet.

But watching Plex via my set top box is fine. Any solutions?
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
Without some Media Info and info about your setup it will be difficult to answer...

One reason could even be as simple as a dirty connection between the CCast and the HDMI input...

But more likely is that you are streaming in some form of Multichannel that your TV doesn't support or is set incorrectly to deal with it.

CCast should take into account what your TV will accept for audio but on some older TVs this may not work properly.

It could also be the way it is transcoding in Plex for CCast that is the difference because your set top box may not require transcoding.

So many things it could be that it is impossible to solve without a lot more information to draw from.

It's been fine recent weeks. Up until a few days ago. My set top box accesses the same media PC with no issues.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ninpo-bugei:
Hey guys. You've probably had a bunch of posts like this, but I've spent the past day frustratedly searching up as much about this as possible and I still can't find an answer.

My mother gave me her old Galaxy S3 which had been network locked. I've checked the IMEI blacklist and it doesn't seem to be on 3 that you can check for free.

The phone is a UK Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-i93505, originally on contract to Orange. I used Odin and flashed the firmware from 4.1.2 to JB 4.1.1 as far as I know, so that I could unlock. Everything was successful.

I followed the numerous guides on entering Service mode > Debug > Phone Control >Network Lock > PERSO SHA256 OFF > SHA256_ENABLE_FLAG [0] SHA256_OFF=>Not Change > Current Command is 118630.

From here of course, I go back, hit NW LOCK NV DATA INITIALLIZ > PERSO_NV_INIT is SUCCESSFUL.

From here I wait, shut down, restart, enter my new sim, but nothing changes. Any network access is still locked. I've read on one forum that people have had success when they 'change' ENABLE_FLAG from [0] to [1], but i can't find any instruction on how to do this. I've also read that the process only works when the Current Command is 118640 not 118630, but after repeated tries the code will not change.

It's doing my nut in, I don't want to pay for an unlock code or some guy down the highstreet to unlock it when I see so many people doing it themselves...any help would seriously be appreciated, i'm new at all this.

Thanks!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Are you using the unlock method from this forum? If you are, it may not work as it is designed to work with the i747 and i747m.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Larry2999:
I think the free unlock method will still work for the UK variant. The instructions are slightly different, however. Try the following steps ...

1) Put a non-compliant SIM in your device and reboot with the SIM inside. Click on dismiss when prompted for unlock code

2) Go to the dial pad and in *#197328640#.

3) Do the usual [1] UMTS => [1] Debug Screen => [8] Phone Control => [6] Network Lock

4) Options [3 ]PERSO SHA256 OFF and wait for around 30 seconds.

5) Hit Menu button and click on Back. Then Choose [4] NW Lock NV Data INITIALLIZ.

Enter *#197328640# again using the Key Input

If this doesn't work, after the first time at [3] PERSO SHA256 OFF, hit Menu => Back then [2] PERSO SHA256 ON then Menu => Back and repeat steps 4) & 5) again. You will notice that the info in [3] PERSO SHA256 will have changed.

Version .266 rooted and no success on updating to .201

Hi there,

I have a Xperia SP build number 12.1.A.0.266, with CWM installed and rooted with Doomlord kernel.

Last week I received the notification to upgrade to version 1.201.

Via Sony Companion, no deal: there comes an error message (Error 2003) after the phone reboots.

Donwloading the new version directly by the phone and installing: Phone reboots, starts CWM with and error message (unknow package / unknow signature) and even trying to run that, I receive an error message and right then a warning, that root has to be rebuild.

I rebuild it, device reboots and nothing changes.

Any help on that?
[Xperia SP General] KiaTheKing:
Go to my youtube channel and find video called: how to fix stuck on sony logo, use that guide and youill fix the phone.....Link of channel is on my signature :P
[Xperia SP General] hfcamilo:
Ehehehe, not really :laugh:

I guess I couldn't make myself clear, but the phone didn't locked or got stucked on Sony Logo.

Right after I fix Root, it reboots normally and continues working.

But still then, It wont upgrade to v .201 - wheter by Sony Companion or downloading via Update Center and flashing it on Recovery mode.

Both ways lead to Errors and I'm still working on version 0.266.

I'd appreciate any further videos with instructions or a solution on that =)

Btw, I've browsed some further and found on other xda forum a Greek .ftf file with v.201 to flash.

Should that be safe in order to upgrade?
[Xperia SP General] KiaTheKing:
Yeah it will be ;) Just flash like i showed in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sz3LVw_MfzQ

EDIT: For anyone who has problems with wifi after flashing DoomLord kernel, go and flash some of the roms for example: existenz!

Which version of CWM is installed? You can mount USB storage in the recovery and simply copy a rom to your sdcrad as it will be handled as usb mass storage. In case you can't mount storage --> we'll get it working another way ;)

WHY you use adb to copy files? Mass storage is even more easy + safe :)
