[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gvr4-330:
Hi All,

I am wondering if someone else has seen this. I am having problems with my HTC One Dev Edition on the latest 4.4 update with an AT&T sim card.

What is happening is I can't use Google search through Google Now or through the search bar. Going to the Google.com website works fine. It works fine on WiFi.

If I swap my AT&T SIM into a different Android phone, it works fine and if I swap a T-Mobile SIM into my HTC it works fine.

I've already double checked my APN settings with the other working Android phone, and I don't see any issues there.

Has anyone seen this issue?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gvr4-330:
No one has seen this issue?

This seems to be affecting my gmail accounts as well. Messages sit in "Sending" status until I connect up to a wifi network.

What is frustrating is that it does work sometimes; but most of the time it doesn't.

I tried a factory reset on my phone, and that didn't fix it. I will probably try to RUU to a different firmware if I can't figure this out. Not having access to Google services really defeats the purpose of having an Android.

The most frustrating part is it works fine with a T-Mobile SIM, and my AT&T SIM works fine in a different device. But I want to use my AT&T SIM in my HTC One!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fenstre:
I don't have a definite answer for you, but this reminds me of a problem I had with a Nexus 4 and a HTC One X, using HSPA+. They had a huge latency when sending outgoing data. So sometimes outgoing messages would be sent immediately, but other times there would be a delay of up to five minutes. Is it possible the phone's hardware isn't working well with AT&T's cell network? Some software can compensate by timing out and re-sending data, but other apps will just not work.

is their any way to fix the issue of camera stoppage on Nutt method of rooting and installed 4.4.2 kitkat update.... Nutt told three solutions

You have 3 things to try to fix it, try them one at a time:

Clear dalvik-cache only;

Clear the camera app settings;

Do a factory reset in TWRP or PhilZ (this should keep your internal storage safe);

flash the ROM package again;

boot until you can test the camera;

If it works go back to recovery to restore a backup of data.

and unfortunately i tries everyone but still issue is thier..... can anyone knows how to fix it....

Before posting your replies please remember that i have lost DRM keys in back and got fixed camera issue by Sony 4.3 update....

any developer or NUTT please help me out

Hi, did you read this? Read this please, if the problem is like mine was, i copied what you have to do ;)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2706426

Did you make a TA-Partition Backup BEFORE unlocking the bootloader? If yes- Just restore it & you are fine.

If not, thats what you have to do/what i did to make it work.

First of all NOT STRIPPED ftf`s becasue it is only the kernel as far as i know. You have to download the whole original rom which is about 1gb.

+Edit. Do not exclude any options in Flashtool like Ta, kernel or anything else !!!! Just choose your ftf and flash!

First flash original 290. FTF with your branding (for me it was vodafone)

The camera should work there. If yes continue.

Flash original 681. ftf with your branding if possible.

The cam should work there too. If yes continue.

Now you are good to go, put your custom rom on SD Card-

Flash custom kit kat kernel/or stock with recovery

Boot into CWM and flash your Rom. Your Cam should work.

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] 23rdstreet:
Wondering if anyone had a method for backing up the EFS partition on an HTC One M8. I'd recently lost the IMEI on my AT&T Galaxy S III sometime while flashing 4.4.2 nightlies without first backing up the EFS. For the past month, I've tried all the methods that I could find to try to restore it, to no avail. :eek:

So, I give up & order the HTC One M8. But before I go flashing anything, I really want to back up the EFS.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] suprtrukr425:
I'm not sure if there is any method or need to backup an efs on an HTC device. Someone might be able to correct me, but I believe that is a Samsung specific problem.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] slapdaddy:
To my knowledge, only Samsung and LG devices have an EFS partition. I have had HTC devices for quite some time and have never heard the term EFS before I bought a Galaxy S4.

The EFS partition holds all of the IMEI data, wireless hardware info etc...On HTC devices, we need S-OFF before we can modify radio data I believe. So HTC must have something similar, but I'm not sure it is specifically an "EFS partition".

But given how vital the EFS partition is to those devices that utilize it, I'd make sure it isn't there before I went tinkering around. :)
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] K.AuthoR:
/bump

I am curious about this as well, I always liked to back up my EFS partition when I owned Samsung devices just in case I nuked something. Is anyone familiar enough with HTC's filestructure to know where the IMEI info is stored?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] drawde40599:
Hi , Did u ever find out if this is possible or necessary ? If so can u share what u have found out ?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] 4thosenjesuschrist:
It's not necessary with a HTC device. Once you have s-off and unlocked bootloader.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] johnhazelwood:
Are you sure? I also came from a Captivate (which did have an EFS folder), and a Galaxy S3 (where the IMEI was located in a memory block and not an actual folder). I'm not sure what caused some devices to loose the IMEI, it did happen when people flashed ROM's. My guess is this could potentially still be a problem with the HTC phones, but hasn't come up yet. I never lost my IMEI on the S3 (I did on the Captivate), but I was worried about it being erased every time I flashed.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
After flashing many ROMs and other mods on 4 different HTC Android devices; I don't believe I've ever heard of the IMEI being lost from flashing a ROM on an HTC device, and I've never previously heard of anyone backing up EFS on an HTC device. I don't think HTC devices even have an EFS partition, it seems to be exclusively a Samsung thing. Some Google searches on EFS for HTC devices backs up this notion.

I am on a trip and had my Universal stuck at startup and had to hardreset. Restored everything with SPB backup and all is working great besides the backlight. Whatever interval I put it just goes back to 10 seconds.

Using latest iMate rom...

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] scottad:
Probably not the first, won't be the last. I rooted my N7 with WugFresh root toolkit. But I can't choose a ROM. I would prefer close to vanilla with the advanced power menu that includes reboot and bootloader if possible. I have TWRP for recovery.

I've looked at Kangakat, CleanROM and Sinless. If one of them is better over the other that would be fine. Or another ROM. I want the latest build (KOT49H) and OTA potential.

Personally I've Installed Cyanogenmod Nightlies, with ElementalX Kernel. CM ROMs are close to stock, but with some cool stuff. you can activate advanced power menu in CM in Developers section. The latest Nightlies are stable and smooth, and the battery life is correct.

Don't forget, unlocking your device will do a full wipe :laugh:

I experienced some bootloops, lags, even some fonctions broken (Wifi, proxymity sens, etc) in some nightlies. I experienced it on my friend's Galaxy S2, but i never experienced something like that with my N7 on "stock" CM11. In fact, i bought my N7 recently :D
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] droidshadow:
look into omnirom...

I am not going to say any ROM is better than others because all ROMs have their pros and cons. To find out which ROM you like best you will have to try and experiment for yourself.

Nexus devices have a wonderful recovery manager which is TWRP which stands for Team Win Recovery Project. Nexus devices also have a great tool which works with TWRP recovery manager, this tool is call MultiROM manager. What multirom manager does is it allows you to install multiple ROM's on your Nexus device without harming or altering your stock ROM.

In order to use multirom you need to first patch your stock ROM with the kexec-hardboot patch. That can be done very easily. First thing you need to do is root your device. If you are going to root your device i would also recommend unlocking the tablets bootloader. This can all be done with WuGFresh's NRT (nexus root toolkit). Here is a link for NRT -> http://www.wugfresh.com/nrt/

After you have your tablet rooted and bootloader unlocked then install TWRP recovery, again all of this can be done with the Nexus Root Toolkit.

After that you can go to the google play store and download the app MultiROM Manager. This is the easiest way to install multirom. Here is the link for multirom manager -> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tassadar.multirommgr

Again, if you don't have your stock kernel patched with the kexec-harboot patch you won't be able to boot multiple roms. You can patch your stock kernel with the kexec-harboot patch from multirom manager.

So once you have unlocked bootloader + root + twrp recovery manager + kexec harboot patch for stock kernel (from stock rom) + multirom manager you have the freedom to do whatever you want to your tablet without harming or modifying your stock rom.

As for a custom ROM i would recommend that you look into OmniROM. It has gotten good reviews and i personally love it. I find it very stable and it also has a really nice feature with multi-windows and split screens.

Another thing you might be interested in is look into "xposed framework" that allows you to customize your stock or custom rom by adding things like multi-windows or advanced reboot menu for example.

I hope this has been helpful...

If you get stuck on anything there is great documentation on rooting + twrp recovery manager here on xda or you can find great videos on youtube.com.

To emulate the Back button on the Fire TV remote assign the clear key from the ORtek.

To emulate the Home Button on the Fire TV remote assign the Browser command from the ORtek. It is also the upper left key on the remote. The "e" with a circle around it.

On my Harmony One I assigned Home to the Menu key and Back to the Exit key. Neither were being used for the ORtek device.

You can use Droidmote to emulate all input devices (mouse, keyboard, virtual controller).

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schneid:
No Cash Required

Read the link above. Buy Flirc on Amazon for $30. Follow the guide. The Menu Key is programmed from the command line. If you have an H1, my posted config file might work. My H1 does everything but the microphone as it ain't got one.

I added a USB hub. Have Flirc (a keyboard emulator), an MS Entertainment KB/mouse, and USB stick attached.

Also Droidmote, Play Store, client/server, $3, is a great phone/tablet based remote.

The Harmony One does not do BT. Per Logitech, "Harmony remotes without Harmony Hub cannot control Amazon Fire TV." Are you confusing the H1 with the $300 Ultimate?

Is it complicated to set that up. I would love to get this working with my Harmony 700
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bama29:
No, it is not very complicated. It has been awhile since I did it but as I recall it did require manually learning a couple of commands. The thing that hung me up to start in the manual learning process was that I was using very deliberate slow key presses. I found out that to manually learn the couple of commands that I needed, only a very quick tap of the desired key was needed.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schneid:
Will it do the Menu button? i thought only Flirc could pull that off.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nooknut:
The Oretek can do the menu button. I believe its either "Info" or "Guide". Home key is mapped to "Browser".

The issue to look out for is that no Harmony is created equally. Case in point, I use a 900 upstairs with the Oretek. Works fine. Button response a bit slow even with the key delay set all the way to 0ms. But it's useable.

I have a Harmony 890 downstairs with an Oretek. Infuriating! Not only would it not communicate the IR signals properly (had to learn all commands from the Oretek as RAW, but on top of that, with the inter-key delay set to 0 so I didn't get repeat keys AND the key delay set to 0ms, it is still slow as molasses, and I have not found a combo that both delivers the signal correctly AND makes the key presses fast enough to be useable.

Might break down and by a refurb 900. At least I know what I'm getting into with that.

You need Flirc as AFTV cannot handle IR commands from the Harmony. The AFTV remote is RF. Flirc receives UR commands an injects them as keystrokes via the AFTV USB port.
