[Moto X Q&A] dmm108:
Actually I'm trying to avoid the extra step of post processing the photos in my computer. My old HTC Incredible had controls for brightness, contrast, and sharpening, and it was handy to just set it for the lighting conditions and be done. Doesn't seem like that much to ask for, since it was part of the default controls years ago. Simple image processing transformations and look-up table manipulation.
[Moto X Q&A] Arak-Nafein:
Well, that was probably some HTC software that gave you those settings. BTW most gallery apps have the ability to do minor editing like adjusting brightness & contrast.

What I'm trying to tell you is that you're looking for the wrong words. Look for ISO & exposure compensation instead. Contrast isn't simply "adjusted" in a camera....it depends on your lighting & exposure....so any "contrast" setting you were adjusting on the HTC was basically a filter. Same for "brightness".

If you want to make your photo brighter, set your ISO higher or up your exposure compensation....both settings easily adjusted on 3rd party camera apps. I can't say that I've ever used a camera app with "brightness" and "contrast" settings before taking a picture. Those are always adjusted after-the-fact.
[Moto X Q&A] M973:
^^^ this
[Moto X Q&A] dmm108:
"They are always adjusted afterwards" specifically because you never had a camera where that adjustment was possible before taking the picture, and you never had the need for it. So of course they were always adjusted afterwards.

I'm not using the wrong words. I simply want my camera app to give me control over contrast, and sharpness if possible. I never said I couldn't control brightness, and I understand what ISO and exposure controls do. I am a computer engineer with many years of experience in digital imaging. I know of what I speak, but more to the point, I know of what I want. If you can point me to an app that does that, great. Otherwise we can just agree to disagree about what you and I think I need. . If you can give me insight on a low level as to moto x's access to sensor data that might explain why camera apps that have this functionality on other platforms don't on the moto x, which would inform me writing my own controls, that would be even better.
[Moto X Q&A] Arak-Nafein:
I came off as condescending, my apologies.

I dunno man, the only thing I can think of even close to what you're talking about is maybe Paper camera? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dama.papercamera

I know it's silly, but you mentioned chalkboards & perhaps one of the silly filters will allow you to capture what you need? There's a brightness & contrast slider, it's all realtime adjustments.

Beyond that, I do not know. Good luck on your search! If you find something let us know because I'm interested to see how this pans out!
[Moto X Q&A] dmm108:
no apology needed, I appreciate the exchange - and if I find something pertinent, either an app, or some information about moto x specific barrier I'll pass it on.
[Moto X Q&A] aviwdoowks:
Are you using ART? I am and the fv-5 is not compatible.
[Moto X Q&A] dmm108:
FV-5 did have contrast, brightness and sharpness control on one screen, but initially I had much trouble with it on the Moto-X. Basically I could not find a way to get solid confirmation of how many pictures I actually took. Sometimes I'd think I took several to find out I had one or two, and sometimes I had multiples. I did email the deveoper. I downloaded it again after your post, and it seems to be working as designed now. I wish the contrast/sharpness menu was not so buried in the menu tree and that I could choose it to be one of the on screen icons.

I'm not familiar with ART, so maybe you could explain that to me.
[Moto X Q&A] aviwdoowks:
I just posted about it here.

[MENTION=1061998]digitaldazz[/MENTION] You gonna give it a try? If so i'll stay up for results. If not i'm headed to bed, 4:00am here. it's just the sense bootloader from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2696282
[One (M8) Android Development] djkinetic:
Can you check your system partition size, it could very well be that the HBoot for GPE isnt allowing Sense roms, however if the system partition for Sense is 2+gb and GPE 1+gb, you obviously can't fit 2gb worth of stuff on 1gb of space.
[One (M8) Android Development] nugzo:
i have a sense rom installed now, insert coin fresh install and then restored from previous nandroid. I couldnt before i changed hboot back. didnt check partition size before changing back, just knew i couldnt install.
[One (M8) Android Development] djkinetic:
I could probably test it out but not till later today...4 am here heh.
[One (M8) Android Development] nugzo:
I'm tempted to do the full conversion and try just changing hboot back.. that would take a good hour though to get back setup... maybe tomorrow if no one else tries before then.
[One (M8) Android Development] housry23:
I'm pretty sure [MENTION=3537886]graffixnyc[/MENTION] has already tried to flash the sense hboot. That's what he told me on hangouts. I don't think this will work for someone that has done the full conversion. I hope so, but I'm almost 100% sure it won't.
[One (M8) Android Development] adnan.makarevic:
hi@all

some question and sorry for my english..

i read little bit around the partition list of the m8 and about the unclear state when i flash the ruu for the conversion to gpe edition as it is without removing the radio img, if i still have the lte signal in the eu. what i think to know is, there are two partition for radio, one the radio image it self(mmcblk0p20) and a radio config partition(mccblk0p18). so, if i backup them before i flash the ruu, i should be able to flash it over if the lte signal isnt there?

the line code for the backup would be:

adb shell

su

dd if=/dev/block/mccblk0p18 of=/sdcard/radio_config.img

dd if=/dev/block/mccblk0p20 of=/sdcard/radio.img

the line code for reflash after flashing ruu for conversion would be:

fastbooot flash radio radio.img

fastboot flash radio_config radio_config.img

am i right with that or do i misunderstand something?

many thanks for your help.
[One (M8) Android Development] nugzo:
Maybe not, but it worked for me and i was getting the exact same error as the others that tried to flash a sense rom. I was senseless for days (pun intended lol) now i can flash without problems. Maybe there is more than 1 partition that is causing the problem.. i'm scared to do the full conversion just in case it doesnt fix it.. But i'd sure like someone to try, it certainly wont hurt.

Hey guys, I'm going to ask that you look out for each other the next week or so.. I'm heading to Colorado for vacation. I'll be popping in here and there but won't be around like I normally am for the next week.. (I'm in a cab now heading to JFK airport)
[One (M8) Android Development] graffixnyc:
Long story short.. I tried flashing the bootloader and it didn't change my partition size.. Although.. Now that I think about it.. I didn't format the system after I did.. Maybe if you format the system partition after you flash the bootloader it could work.. Now that I have two m8s I can experiment more when I get back.. But who knows, by then HTC may release a RUU.. I would tell you guys to take to social media and Hound HTC as to when a RUU for the developer edition will be released

I'll gladly try to see if it works since I'm already stuck on GPE, what steps should I take ?
[One (M8) Android Development] graffixnyc:
Do this.. Flash the sense bootloader.. Then boot into android.. Copy over a nandroid or a rom to your phone, go into recovery back up (just in case it doesn't work) and then go to the mounts menu, format system, data, and cache.. Then try restoring the sensr nandroid or flash a rom.. Have this ruu handy in case you get stuck

download https://www.dropbox.com/s/e40nhtdb53z006j/sensehboot.zip and install it. Might be a good idea to backup internal SD first, not sure if it will wipe that or not.

instructions

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot oem rebootRUU

fastboot flash zip sensehboot.zip

you will the following message:

Just run the same command again:

[One (M8) Android Development] Nic2112:
Nexus and Moto from what I read. It's weird, brand new with 4.4.3 Rogers I had the problem. Switched to GPE 4.4.4, problem went away. Tried Brightstar's RUU, 4.4.3 had the problem but it was fixed in 4.4.4. Now GPE with L has the problem. Oh well, don't want to get away from the topic, I thought this RUU helped with it but it seems to be a firmware or kernel problem.
[One (M8) Android Development] graffixnyc:
yeah it's an image just like the radio. is there a RUU for your device that you have run in the past and it worked? What I would try is maybe running the developer edition RUU(or a RUU you have run and it worked before).. Then open the GPE conversion RUU, remove the radio.img and radio config img and then flash the ruu

That's just up there for other purposes. Some people need just the stock recovery.. say they flash a custom recovery and want to go back to stock.. or some people might need the older bootloader or the stock boot.img or radio.. etc... It's basically everything except the system partition. The ruu contains all of that

Can someone tell me what are the differences between flashing this RUU and flashing the rom that the author of this thread posted? This RUU requires S-OFF and CID and MID changes, the other one doesn't.
[One (M8) Android Development] LNJ:
Doesn't make a difference for BT streaming.
[One (M8) Android Development] Vigz:
Flashing this RUU gives you a fully converted Google Play Edition M8 with full OTA support. It will require you to change your CID in order for those future OTA updates to function properly. That other thread is a custom ROM and you will have to wait for him to re-release the rom for future updates.
[One (M8) Android Development] Nic2112:
It didn't, I got 5 minutes of everything working so I was happy but it started right back. I don't get it, I drove 90 minutes a couple weeks ago with the leak, not a single skip, then I make the same drive back, can't go 30 seconds without skips.

I don't know what to do... L or go back to Sense and wait for that to get updated and hope that bug doesn't get integrated.
[One (M8) Android Development] svassh:
So I have this installed, works flawlessly. Wanted to flash the sense camera but could not get TWRP recovery flashed last nite. It would never take.

Anyone else had this problem or is recovery not possible with GPE?
[One (M8) Android Development] mccullyr:
Can you flash the sense camera on gpe? Can you post a link please.
[One (M8) Android Development] Nic2112:
You don't need to flash the Sense camera, it's one APK for the camera and one for the gallery which doesn't work but is necessary for the camera to work.

No I won't post a link, learn to google.

Cannot update to 5.0.1

I apologize if this is the wrong place to ask this question, but I'm in dire need of help.

I have an HTC m8 ATT version that I converted over to GPe 4.4.4. I am trying to put 5.0.1 stock. I have tried downloading the stock image and trying to apply it from recovery with no luck. I keep getting platform.xml gets unexpected results.

I get the same error when applying the OTA from the settings menu. I have tried changing the xml file to a previous backup version. When I do that, it gives me the Clockopia.tff file gets unexpected results.

I have factory reset it several times with no luck. I've tried several different stock recoveries (I was told it might be a stock recovery issue at one point).

I have also tried this thread's instructions to install 5.0.1. When I apply it from my phone (when I rename the image 0p6bimg.zip and run bootloader) I get and error on the bootloader section.

Below is my getvar all info:

[One (M8) Android Development] Nic2112:
There is a Q&A section to the M8 forums, you should ask there. If you were able to convert, the RUU worked and that's what this thread is for.

Also, you flash an RUU from fastboot, not recovery

will this work for a carrier locked htc one m8? or i need to unlock the phone

thank you
[One (M8) Android Development] jxcorex28:
Doesnt seem like he knows much about fastboot or bootloader/hboot ops. If you aren't keen on what to do, or want the lazy man's way out..download the 5.0.1 RUU, rename to 0P6BIMG, reboot into bootloader. If phone is currently on hit power+vol up. When screen turns black hit power + vol down. This will take you to bootloader,select hboot then let the magic happen...if you're curious about adb/fastboot then Google "adb/fastboot". You will get millions of pages, but find a small adb/fadtboot package to download. Its essentially just adb and not the entire SDK, which can be rather large. I believe the new SDKs include "eclipse". You can also run adb/fastboot commands through an OTG cable and phone to phone, phone to tablet,etc..just search for a thread by jball in the general section.
[One (M8) Android Development] seadersn:
fugg the thx button in tapatalk... xD

[One (M8) Android Development] mannyloona:
I've done the adb fastboot commands.

I've tried to install the img zip of the stock rom through the stock recovery for HTC M8 and the GPE M8 stock recovery. I've install TWRP and tried installing it through with no avail. I've changed my CID from GOOG001 and supercid. I've done the 0P6BIMG rename, pressed up to accept and will not continue (gives me a bootloader error of some sort).

I will go ahead and post on the Q&A.

Yes you must install a custom recovery.

You need the above as he says, but the carrier lock is irrelevant (sim lock). You just need to unlock the bootloader but not the sim.
