[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] VolcanicSkunk:
Lol. I have no idea.

I can tell you that I don't have Facebook installed. I turn off all Google sync except gmail, drive, bookmarks and contacts. I turn off the option to have more accurate location by searching for wifi networks (wifi settings>advanced). I use Tasker to turn off WiFi when I'm not home. I use auto brightness. I don't use haptic feedback either.

These are my standard settings that I've been using since my myTouch 4G. So I don't know why my battery life is so much better, but I'm loving it! :)

I'm using juice defender with good results. GSam battery monitor shows that I am getting an on screen time average of 6H 26M. As of right this moment I'm at 75% left with 1:44:39 on screen time. unplugged for 5H 1M, Bone stock, unrooted.

After two weeks with the m8 i went back to the g2 because of the battery life. Im not happy!
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] clj575:
Battery life has been decent but notice that the battery drains faster as the device heats up. Not sure what the issues is but this is my second m8 in less than a week and both got extremely warm just basically browsing or watching youtube. It's bone stock (not rooted).

So far my battery is been great. Stock rooted with xposed and greenify.

I'm coming from a note 3 and I am extremely impressed with the battery on my m8. I get any where from 5 to 7 hours of on screen time depending on what I'm doing. I never got that good on my note. It makes it even more incredible when you realize that it only has a 2600mah battery in it!

Xperia u display problem

Will anyone help me? my little xperia u display dead due to sweat.The phone connecting in flashboot and fastboot and i also used ics official firmware via flashtool but again displaying only black.phone vibrates when i start my phone but sony logo doesn't come.there is only black screen.i kept in sun due to this white form made up on half of the screen.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
If there is water in the display which has damaged something then no amount of flashing is going to help. Leave it a bowl of rice over night and if still doesn't power on then you'll need a service centre.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
The LCD / LCD flex cable has been damaged or the part of the motherboard that controls the LCD. You would need to take it apart and look for corrosion on the motherboard and flex cable. It's possible leaving it open and letting it dry out might help. Liquid damage is unpredictable. If you don't see any signs of corrosion then you could buy a new LCD and give it a shot.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] afaquekhaja:
Hi All !

I'm planning to buy a new phone. And I'm in a dilemma about which one to choose. I read the problems with the z1c and i'm alsi aware about the new firmware update rolling out to tackle those issues. Anyways I want your suggestions about getting this device for its awesome battery and water resistance or to go for nexus 5. As the z1c has real bad speakers.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simonna:
Well, problems with the touch screens is the main problem on the Sony phones,and Sony know about it,but unfortunately it can't be fixed if it's hardware problem with Sony official firmwares.your final choice depends on you,but if I were you I would choose Nexus 5 because it will get quickest updates,will be updated for around 18 months,bigger dev support (if you mind about it),better audio quality (Nexus 5 with new hardware has better audio quality than Nexus 5 with the old one,so my Nexus 5 has very good audio quality)

As you mentioned "as for awesome battery life" It's would be biggest Nexus 5 con bad battery life. Of course there're some Nexus 5 users who're managed to get excellent battery life,but for me on normal use it stands for around 6-7 hours.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] charlatan01:
^ Wait... is there something wrong with the touch screens on the Z1c? I own one, and have no issues. It is extremely responsive and I think visually it's on par or better with others I've seen.

Nexus 5 is probably a fine device, and will get strong dev support since it runs un touched Android KK. If that's important, I suppose it's something to consider. Probably the biggest factor will just be device / screen size. I personally am over the 5" size. It was fine, and I could almost use it one handed, but not quite. Performance wise, I'll take the Sony any day... the battery with stamina mode has turned out to be a panacea of sorts... it's just insanely good. I can handle the screen shrink for that alone.

Also, I buy Sony (and had an Oppo Find 5 previous to this) because I wanted to support those hardware vendors that most support the dev community like we have here. Sony is actually pretty good about releasing source, and their updates are better than some others I've had in the past. The Nexus will most certainly be good in this respect, but I like to spend where it supports the cause...

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
Every mobile Phone has "bad speakers", so if that's a deciding factor when deciding you're pretty much screwed whatever you buy.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] afaquekhaja:
I currently have a Samsung galaxy core and I compared my speakers with the z1cs and concluded that they are not good at all.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] afaquekhaja:
I like the z1c for its waterproofing, its battery and the notification led. The new 4.4.2 update is also great.

What I don't like though is the speakers and the noise in pictures taken with it. Also there isn't much accessories available for it my country.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] afaquekhaja:
I'm aware of the issues of the z1 compact like the mic issue, camera quality and so on.

Now talking about nexus 5, it has a beautiful screen, stock android, better looks, faster updates and much more accessories availability.

What I don't like though is the battery, limited storage, not waterproof and the notification led is too small
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] charlatan01:
One could argue that Sony offers ALL of those with the possible exception of updates and accessories... but I think there are a nice selection of accessories for a phone that's still new. I definitely love the feel and look of the Xperia line.

I've been reading various posts since buying my Orange M5000, but havn't seen much said about the one major problem I have.

About 50% of the time, if I attempt to answer a phone call it will cut the person off and divert the call straight to voicemail.

I'm running ROM version 1.30.90 WWE, Radio 1.03.00, ExtROM 1.30.174 WWE. Has anyone had this problem and resolved it ?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] oink1:
A radio ROM upgrade to 1.09 may help & it's relatively easy to do - Just search the forum :) Can't say I've ever encountered your particular problem though...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] hansof:
Installng Radio Rom 1.09

I have the same problem - nearly half of incoming phone calls are lost. I found the upgrade at http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Uni_Radio_1.09.00 . I downloaded the file to the Jasjar and tried to run it, but it didn't work.

How do I install this strange .rar-file?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] ritemple:
Having just tried it, I can help !

Firstly you need to download a program called winrar, should be able to find it through google. It's basically like winzip and will extract the files from the .rar archive.

But, the 1.09 download I found didn't have all the files. You need to download the 1.06 version from the ftp site, extract the rar file and then replace the 1.06 radio_.nbf file with the 1.09 radio_.nbf file you have downloaded.

On you PC (with your Universal connected via USB), run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe to do the upgrade.

In saying that though, I've only been able to install the 1.06 so far, 1.09 won't install.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] jvoelcker:
I've had problems with answering calls on my M5000, even after upgrading the radio ROM.

A couple of things that I find makes a big difference are the amount of free memory available and also changing the ring tone.

If you have some memory hungry apps chewing up the program memory it is difficult to answer the calls because the phone software is slow to load.

I have played with a variety of programs and find it best to keep a minimum of around 12-15Mb of program memory free.

Also the default orange ring tone seems to leave a delay before it starts ringing - I have changed this so that it vibrates and rings from the outset and also have been into the phone settings and changed the network services settings to divert to answering machine after 30sec, the default is 20secs.

Hope that helps.

Obviously as Android versions get released with "bugfixes", they start releasing them from the factory on the latest software build.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boksquare:
First of all I would like to apologize if I posted this in the wrong forum or section. I just registered this account to ask for help regarding my bricked HTC One (m7ul). I am not a newbie to XDA as I have visited this site more than once to learn the fundamentals of rooting android phone and so on. I unlocked my bootloader via HTCDev and rooted it using CWM Touch Recovery 6.0.4.5. 3 weeks ago I flashed my HTC One to Probam (AOSB) custom rom, no problems were present, everything ran smoothly and perfectly. Then, 2 weeks ago, I decided to flash ElementalX kernel, being ignorant on purpose to the fact that it was meant for Sense Roms. Upom completion through Aroma Installer, I selected reboot system in recovery. Upon exit, the recovery told me that my phone could have possibly lost its root access and prompted me to root it so i just agreed. There came the problem upon reboot, I could not boot into my OS and I was stuck on the HTC screen. (May I add that I bought my HTC this year March. I S-offed it via Firewater as my Hboot version was 1.56 and Rumrunner couldn't help me S-Off. Advice for those who have hboot versions higher than 1.55 and want to S-off, Firewater is my suggestion. Just make sure you follow the guid also here on XDA forums accurately and I assure you can get s-off) As I was saying, as soon as that happened, I looked for solutions. I tried hasson 2000 all in one toolkit, I tried relocking my bootloader and runming RUU.exe file to return to stock firmware, I tried sideloading a rom in recovery, I tried mounting usb storage to copy a .zip rom into my internal storage but nothing happened. I tried flashing directly via fastboot but the cmd keep saying it couldnt run the file. I couldn't enter adb as the recovery said there is no os present. I really have no more idea what else I can do and I think I've tried just about everything. Please help as it's been 2 weeks into the brick and I'm really desperate. Please help :(

CID: HTC_044

Hboot:1.56

If there is more information needed please ask as I'm really desperate to fix my phone :C

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clsA:
he flashed a sense kernel to an aosp rom and is in bootloop as near as i can tell

he's s-off hboot 1.56 and needs a RUU I assume
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
Did you tried to flash an AOSP compatible kernel after you realized you couldn't boot the phone?

You should use fastboot and adb from cmd prompt instead of toolkit.

Re-locking bootloader to run a ruu.exe is not required when you have S-OFF. Anyway what was the error code when the RUU exe failed? And what was the ruu version?

What happened? What was the error? What rom?

If you can mount your usb storage with your rom.zip on it, you don't need to copy it to your sdcard! Just install the rom from your mounted usb storage... You said ''nothing happened'' Was there any error code?

Wait?! You can't flash a rom.zip from fastboot, only from custom recovery. The only thing you can flash from fastboot is a recovery or a ruu/firmware from fastboot RUU mode.

ADB should work from custom recovery even if you don't have an OS installed.

post the output of ''fastboot getvar all'' except IMEI. With S-OFF it should be quite easy to make your phone boot again...

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boksquare:
- No, I downloaded and flashed the kernel on my One while I was outstation, so I couldn't do anything when it was stuck on bootloop.

-I couldn't get into adb through fastboot with the command on cmd "adb reboot bootloader" (attachment below [capture])

-That's the problem, there was no error code or anything, it just didn't work, nothing happened. [Capture3]

-It said device not found. [Capture1]

- I believe you and I have a different understanding of usb storage which obviously I'm misinformed. I thought USB Storage is just mounting your CPU storage to your phone.

-Not sure, nothing worked.

I would like to try your method for using the RUU.exe through downgrading hboot all those, but if I downgraded my hboot and everything, and the RUU.exe doesn't work, will my phone go beyond saving? Please advice.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
i think you're rushing things, but since you're s-off, go for ruu.zip method, shows much more information, but beware Win8.1 as mentioned in the FAQs.

(also there's no need to LOCK since you're s-off, and

dont even think about S-On

, the guide was meant as return to stock for warranty.

i'm sure you can Device Manager fixed, it's probably somewhere there, just needs corrected/updated drivers, and by the way, don't use TWRP 2.7.0.0 it has problems with adb.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boksquare:
Okay, I will get to it right away, but before that, I was using CWM Touch 6.0.4.5 but I still can't get adb in cmd. Once I've entered recovery I will automatically find adb through "adb devices" command without having to do anything special? And do I need to remove tampered all those before running RUU.Zip? Or is it just for going back to stock? I am sorry, as there are just a lot of things I'm not clear about or understand. Please advice :/
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
if adb devices doesn't list your device, then you have to check Windows Device Manager and fix the driver problems.

You can leave everything as is, tampered doesn't matter in any case, and unlocked won't matter with S-OFF.

DO NOT GO S-ON.

No problem, better to ask before, otherwise you could end up in a worse situation.

But still don't understand why want to go all the trouble of ruu. can you explain :) (briefly, not a huge paragraph :angel:)

By the way, if you're stuck in a bootloop because you were flashing a 4.4 ROM using CWM 6.0.4.5, then that would be the problem, you need TWRP 2.6.3.3 or higher.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boksquare:
Don't worry I won't enter S-On.

But before the brick there were no problems with the drivers as I had installed HTC Sync Drivers. After the brick my phone just couldn't be detected in my computer. I just assumed this problem is linked with the brick.

Because I have no idea what other methods can save my phone, please advice if there are other methods beside RUU
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
So after reading your first post i see you tried flashing a 4.4 rom using CWM 6.0.4.5, so

get TWRP from:

2.6.3.3: http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7

or 2.6.3.4: http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7ul

(make sure MD5 is correct, that site does not play nice with download managers)

in bootloader/FASTBOOT USB:

fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img

fastboot erase cache

fastboot reboot-bootloader

then install the ROM again.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boksquare:
But the ROM is not in my Htc, how do I move it there? I had no way of moving it there that's why I went for the RUU
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
you have 3 choices to get the ROM onto your phone (once you have custom recovery):

1- OTG cable

2- adb sideload

3- adb push

If you don't have OTG cable, I personally like adb push (example below), though many like adb sideload (plenty of guides and how tos around).

So I sold my tablet to someone, but before I did I went through TWRP or whatever and formatted EVERYTHING. I suppose this erased TWRP as well as the ROM, etc. So now the tablet has nothing to boot into. What are the next steps to getting a ROM installed?
