[Verizon HTC One (M8)] thirtyseven10:
I am currently using a Verizon HTC M8, it's a long story but the store sent me a Verizon phone even though I ordered the factory unlocked version. My problem is that I am on a GSM network, and the Verizon version of the phone updates over the CDMA network. My phone is currently on the 1.12.605.11 software number and I heard that the software has been recently updated to 1.55.605.2

My question is that I would like to know if anyone has the update and a method to manually update? As I am not likely to be able to get the OTA update anytime soon.

Thank in advance!!!

im sure someone is working on a flashable just be patient :o

Understood... patience is not a trait I am known for. Thanks!

I've manually patched the OTAs before but I found it easier to let the htc recovery to just update me. (Assuming you haven't changed a lot of stuff on the /system partition, root and xposed were the only two i changed on it)

This is assuming you have a custom recovery and are s-off (here is the gist of what i did, sorry its not very detailed)

Download the OTAPkg.zip

adb shell

su

cp /cache/fumo/OTAPkg.zip /sdcard/

adb pull /sdcard/OTAPkg.zip

extract firmware.zip from OTAPkg.zip

extract recovery.img from firmware.zip

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot flash recovery.img

fastboot reboot

have the system do its OTA via settings menu

after its done all i had to do was re-flash TWRP, re-root, and install my xposed library again .. TADA!

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] SuperTongue:
I'm stupid and forgot I deleted a lot of the VZW bloat with Titanium Backup, which, of course, this OTA checks for said bloat before going on with the install. Guess I'll just learn to be patient, otherwise this would have worked easily.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] thirtyseven10:
You need at least temp root be able to manually install the update, weaksauce works great for this. Once you have temp root you can download the OTA from here http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2722817 and then unzip and place the OTA.zip in /cache/fumo on your phone (I changed the permissions of the OTA.zip to allow read/write/execute as well). If you don't have a fumo folder in your cache create one and set the permissions to read/write/execute, for moving files and changing permissions I use root explorer.

Once you have the file in the correct location, flash the OTA through the stock recovery. That should be all, it worked for me...

[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zacharias.maladroit:
Hi,

just was in need for booting into recovery because the (newly flashed) ROM was stuck at boot animation, screen turned off and the device got hot (some kind of loop) - so

The button combo in following video worked perfectly:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uo3YfszOPsQ

I'll (review) and write the combo down once I need it again

but if I remember correctly it was:

1) Volume Down + Power button

until you see the LG logo

2) hold Volume Down, release Power button

3) Volume Down & Up + Power button

4) now confirm the appearing question or message twice with the Power button

4) a) Power button

4) b) Power button

hope that helps :cowboy:

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] denmalley:
I looked for thew playpad pro on Amazon and noticed there's another version called "PlayPad Pro for Amazon Fire TV"

Generic "for android/bluetooth" version

http://www.amazon.com/Playpad-Android-Bluetooth-PC-Mac-Linux/dp/B0092ZEINO/ref=pd_sim_vg_1

Amazon fire tv version

http://www.amazon.com/PlayPad-Pro-Amazon-Fire-TV/dp/B00J9P3KBS/ref=dp_ob_title_vg

Does anyone think there's any difference or is Nyko just trying to capitalize on having a half priced controller for the fire tv and optimizing search results for those who are looking for an alternative?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krelvinaz:
I already ordered one, but it doesn't ship until the 25th.

There is a lot more marketing info (pictures etc) on the page for the FireTV version.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carbanm:
From the reviews on amazon if you search for Fire Tv on the old version of the playpad pro, it works just fine.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tarvoke:
if you go to the page for the old one, it says right away that there's a newer model.

they both have the same price, I don't think anyone is capitalizing on anything.

the one I ordered was the newer "firetv" one. because reasons.

but if the old one works, that's good too.

I am more than a little curious why there needs to be 2 versions. I wouldn't mind if someone bought both, cracked them open and compared the chips/pcb.

but as long as it works it's not going to bug me all that much...
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kairnage:
If you ordered when it said shipping on the 18 and paid for overnight, contact Amazon and they will refund the shipping.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krelvinaz:
When I ordered it, it said not shipping until the 25th. I selected normal 2 day delivery since I'm not in a big hurry
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buscemi:
I ordered one when it said the 18th, expected delivery is the 23rd with Prime. That's one business day extra by my calculation but I was more concerned that ALL stock was delayed a week. The rep I talked to said mine was confirmed out of a first set so they must have sold out of the first batch and are getting more a week later. Fun.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kairnage:
LOL, I ordered when it said the 18th as well. When I got the e-mail saying they had been delayed, I was told by a CSR that nobody was getting any shipped by the 18th and that they didn't know for sure when they will ship and the 25th is a "we hope by" date. My Arrival date was supposed to be the 22nd.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buscemi:
Color me totally unsurprised at conflicting information from Amazon :). Well at least they will typically take care of disgruntled folks fairly well in my experience. I'll likely just cancel, move on and get a wireless dongle for my XBox controllers and go wireless that way if these become vapor.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kairnage:
Since a few people are reporting the older version works fine I ordered a refurbished one for a backup, it should be here Monday. If the new one doesn't ship by Wednesday I'll cancel if the refurb works. It must be a jinxed week for shipping because Walmart just screwed up another order.

Amazon

The Nyko representative, responding to reviews on Amazon, is claiming the FireTV version has a firmware update. So, it sounds like the same controller with a different firmware. If the firmware is available, like the original PlayPad Pro for Android, you could upgrade an existing controller.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kairnage:
The update is available from Nyko. you can e-mail their customer support and they usually respond withing an hour or two.

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mvanzante:
Did you update your controller's firmware? I found that the re-pairing is an issue with the older firmware. However, once you update the firmware you may encounter lag in RetroArch.

See my post for more info. I didn't mention my AFTV in that post, but I have paired the updated controller with my AFTV and it is working well. I haven't tried RetroArch on the AFTV, yet, though.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hzlx:
Hello Xda-Developers, im new in the Android world, since i've been an iPhone user since the original iPhone all the way to the iPhone 4 (then things got pretty boring with). I used to Jailbreak my iPhone to have a more flexible experience with it... about 8~9 months ago i bought my first Android, an HTC One (M7) and it worked like a charm and never wanted to look back to iPhone, UNTIL one day i made an OTA update to 4.4.2, i've been having troubles with the signal, it shows full bars, i have 3G signal, but it shows "No Service" and i can't make/receive calls/SMS, i've been searching for 2 weeks or so, on how to fix it and i even sent it to warranty, and had my Sim replaced... twice. The problem persists, reading further i found that many users have been having this issues (and others) since the Kit Kat Update... So i decided to go beyond the world of a normal user... i want to downgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.3 (by the way i'm a Mac user), before making this thread i've been looking other threads and forums to help me on how to do it This is my first post on XDA Developers. Trust me, i've been looking for answers everywhere, the most similar thread i found was this thread.

And at the end the guy went for a new device, so that thread didn't help me out that much.

What i was able to do (hey, at least its a start) is to Unlock the Bootloader via HTCdev.

i think i've read pretty much to know some terms already, also thanks to Lifehacker

So... as i said before, im a Mac user, unfortunately i don't find much answers on how to do stuff with my HTC One and my Mac.

Let's get to the point:

I'd like to downgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.3 (the original HTC version, or a 4.4.2 stable custom version, whatever you think is better)

PS. Do i reeeeaaly need to S-Off and/or downgrade my HBoot?

i have:

*** Unlocked ***

M7_UL PVT SHIP S-ON RH

HBOOT-1.56.000

RADIO-4A-25-3263-21

OS-4.19.401.11

my CID is HTC__405 (Italy)

Please remember i am on Mac OS X, i (guess) i cant use RUUs.

Im so Noob, so if you could give me steps in order or redirect me to other threads on how to do a step, i'd be sooo thankful. I'm sorry if there's already a thread solving my doubt please redirect me there (i swear i've been searching for 2 days).

Update

UPDATE:

I just rooted it with TWRP and SuperSU

also the bootloader has a ***TAMPERED*** flag (if this is somehow harmful, how can i remove it?)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donkeykong1:
Tampered is not harmful, just ugly to see. It's a flag for service to know your phone is not unlocked out of the box. You can just flash a 4.3 ROM, no need to s-off
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
Yes, s-off is required to downgrade. Ruu is possible with a mac if you use a ruu.zip instead of a ruu.exe. S-OFF is more difficult to achieve on hboot 1.56, so maybe you'll have to use a custom rom if you can't s-off.

If you already unlocked bootloader and rooted your phone, I assume you can use adb and fastboot from your mac. If not then read this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1917237

Then s-off the phone using rumrunner or firewater.

There is also a discussion here about S-OFF and hboot 1.56: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2567727

If you can s-off you'll be able to downgrade using a ruu.zip from your mac.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hzlx:
So, i can flash any 4.3 ROM (regardless of my phones software version [4.19.401.11] and/or my CID)?

After this, will i be able to make OTA Updates?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donkeykong1:
You can flash anything you like. If you flash stock rooted 4.3 ROM you will get OTA but you can't upgrade just like that. You need to relock your bootloader, flash stock recovery and stock kernel. On the other hand, you have great choice of custom kitkat ROMs which work great, so you can flash one of them. ARHD 53 would be my recomendation
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hzlx:
Thanks a lot!

So far i managed to Unlock bootloader (with a Tampered Flag), S-OFF with firewater on hboot 1.56 and root it via TWRP and SuperSU.

I cant find a RUU for my CID HTC__405 though i have this stock ROM and it says it can restore to stock radios (which hopefully will solve my problems)... stock radios will be restored now that i have S-Off... right?

and a last question... once i am back in 4.3 will i be able to download further OTA updates (say... when 4.4.3 comes out)? if not, what should i do now?

Nope, before making this whole thread i sent it to warranty and they supposedly repaired it, i changed sim twice.

im going back further, trying 2.24.401.8 with android 4.2

Let's see if that works, or else i'll start trying custom ROMs... so far i've been using stocks.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donkeykong1:
Well, good luck. I just want to say - if you have the same problem with more than one ROM, no matter if it's stock or modified there is a hardware issue.

Supposedly is what bothers me the most in your case. Maybe your service doesn't care for their customers. It wouldn't be the first
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pball52998:
True ^^ I agree with [MENTION=4780713]donkeykong1[/MENTION] If you've had two SIMs and all that......its a hardware issue that is malfunctioning....

Ok... i'm just trying with this last ROM... if it doesn't work... what are the steps to go back to full stock (Locked, S-ON, remove TAMPERED, unrooted)? so i can send it back to warranty

Thanks [MENTION=5642430]pball52998[/MENTION] & [MENTION=4780713]donkeykong1[/MENTION]
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pball52998:
You're s-off correct? Ive seen people not needing to go back s-on for warranty purposes. But pretty much if you want to go back to stock, its just ruu, it does it all for you. Takes you back Locked with factory recovery and full just straight stock.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hzlx:
Ok, so i know where to find some RUUs but i know using a mac i have to use a .zip, right?

my question is...

how do i use a RUU.zip? do i install it placing it in the internal storage then use TWRP?

So far i haven't lost signal.

Thanks again!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pball52998:
Okay, well a ruu can be placed on the internal memory.....but...... the way that I've always seen it done, or a lot of times is

./adb reboot bootloader

./fastboot oem rebootRUU

./fastboot flash RUU.zip

the RUU.zip could be named anything :confused: so you might have to rename the RUU or change the RUU.zip in terminal to what ever the foop you named it, although I wouldn't do the RUU with those instructions just yet.... Can someone else confirm it??
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
you might want to reset your phone using a ruu before to make sure your issue is really related to an hardware defect.

This ruu.zip will reset your phone to stock 1.28.401.7 (android 4.1.2) and hboot 1.44.

Then if you see the phone still have the issue, remove the tampered flag and set the bootloader back to ''LOCKED'' using this tool. Then s-on and send for warranty repair/replacement. This procedure must be done before you take any ota that will update your phone to hboot 1.55 or the tampered flag will come back and you'll have to s-off again and redo the entire procedure.

---------- Post added at 05:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:10 PM ----------

Make sure the ruu.zip is in the same folder where adb and fastboot are.

./adb reboot bootloader

or manually reboot the phone in bootloader using power + vol down

./fastboot oem rebootRUU

make sure ''RUU'' are capital letters

./fastboot flash name_of_ruu.zip

First time it will output a failed message, do the same command again:

./fastboot flash name_of_ruu.zip

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnael7:
The model of my phone is SGH-T999. It is not rooted (I'm going to root it soon though), its running Android 4.3 and I do admit I've dropped it a few times but it has a cover. It shuts off at the most random moment and restarts itself, and sometimes it won't go past the Galaxy SIII logo before restarting itself once more. Theres a possibility the lock button has something to do because when it stays in that startup loop I play around with the lock button till it finally finishes the startup succesfully, but I don't know how the lock button can make it shut down on its own while its turned on without me touching the "power off" option in the window that comes up.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] baccaruda:
My EVO 4G LTE has, with all custom ROMs, lost stability after a month or two, developing different arrays of performance quirks or problems.

I'm interested in if there's a way to test the hardware on the phone? I'm tired of switching / reinstalling ROMs.

At first I thought the problem was that the ROMs were unstable but I've chosen from the bet ones available - PACman, Viper, a couple others I can't recall right now. The phone is rooted via Dirty Racun FYI...

Currently, with Carbon, the problems consist of:

With screen lock off, when waking the phone via the power button, something on the current screen will activate, whether it's an app shortcut on the homescreen, or a function inside of an active app.

Setting for LTE / 3G will not stay on 3G (LTE coverage is spotty enough that I just don't use it)

Random crashes / resets / bootloops; occasionally the phone will freeze on the loading screen with the Carbon logo and require me to hard-reset it.

Once in a while it's ignored my alarm clock.

Usually when dialing out, the phone will hang and fail to connect / ring, and I'll have to hang up and dial out a 2nd time to connect / ring through.

With ROMs I've used in the past, the arrays of problems have been different but of similar nature. At first I was inclined to blame the ROM in use but as my phone is the common element between them, I'm interested in how I can determine if I have a lemon on my hands or what.

Thanks for reading this.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Go back to stock rooted and see how it runs.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] baccaruda:
I'm not unwilling to do that, but I have extra time this weekend to run diagnostics as well if there's any method by which that's possible? It seems to take a few weeks for problems to start developing when I install a fresh ROM.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Any such diagnostics when not on a stock ROM can be issues with the custom ROM, not the device. If they occur when on stock, that helps determine hardware may be at fault.

Most of the AOSP ROMs suffer from kernel and data issues because they use the same base. You might want to try the Android 4.3 RUU as well since that's the latest we have for the device.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] baccaruda:
Ah, thanks for this. I didn't think it would be reasonable to blame the ROMs across the board. I'll look into the 4.3 RUU.
