[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] FreakyFreakGA:
Okay I use Root Browser and on the old Nexus 7 unlocked/rooted stock firmware I could do things like copy regular apps to the /system/app folder and make them a system app. But on the newer 2013 Nexus 7 I am having no luck with anything pertaining to the /system partion

All my permissions are right and I am rooted, but any time I try and copy files over to system it always fails, when I look at the filesystem in Explorer it says the partion is mounted as R/O, i've tried a few su commands in terminal emulator but still have no success in mounting my system as R/W.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated, thank you in advance!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] wantabe:
I'm not familiar with Root Browser, I've only ever used Root Explorer and have never had any problems with any devices. Root Explorer is easy to change to R/W, there is a little button towards the top to toggle between R/W & R/O. Sorry I can't be of more help. If you can't get any help here with Root Browser maybe email the developer for support.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] YELLOW_STL_MACH:
I read through the FAQ and tried searching but didn't see a solution.

I have a VZW M8 that is Rooted, S-Off, Clockwork Recovery, Factory ROM, (Installed Standard and Extreme Power Saver Mode, and unlocked VZW WiFi Hotspot.)

I got a notification today that the 1.55.605.2 update is available for the phone but when I attempted to install it the install failed.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] YELLOW_STL_MACH:
Ran it again to get the exact error messages.

On install it takes me to CWM Recovery and asks if I want to install the untrusted zip, (Shows failed to verify whole file signature, then signature verification failed.)

If I tell it to install the untrusted zip I get the following:

file_getprop: Failed to stat "/system/build.prop" : No such file or directory

E: Error in /cache/fumo/OTAPkg.zip (Status 7)

Installation aborted

If you have a custom recovery installed it won't update.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Mike02z:
re install the stock recovery or wait a few hours for the devs to put flashable versions.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] WorldOfJohnboy:
I would recommend this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2723159

It's always best to wait for someone to release the version(s) of Firmware that will work for S-Off/Rooted/Custom ROMs. Since I'm running ViperOneM8, I flashed the No Boot firmware and have no issues. BTW, my battery life is absolutely AMAZING.

[MENTION=4095874]YELLOW_STL_MACH[/MENTION] curious: what did you end up doing? I'm in the same boat (Orig Factory stock ROM, rooted, S-Off, etc.) but never bothered taking the OTA (although it keeps bugging me). just wondering what you did and if it was worth the trouble.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] croques:
I'm using the Google Play Edition v1.3.0 | 4.4.2 | 1.16.1700.16 ROM by HolyAngel

The phone recovery is stock and I want to fastboot into philz modified cwm recovery.

I issue

fastboot boot philz_touch_6.25.5-m8.img

and watch the following go by

downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 1.252s]
booting...
OKAY [ 0.016s]
finished. total time: 1.268s

The phone hangs for about 10 seconds and then boots normally showing the white HTC screen with red text and then the Google splash screen.

How can I get into recovery?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tiann:
If you're trying to flash a recover you should be using:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Then once it's done, you can always access recovery through the bootloader. There's an option there.

If you are having problems with accessing Recovery, I would recommend doing

fastboot erase cache

Seems to fix most problems when it comes to trying to get into recovery.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] croques:
To be clear, I do not wish to flash recovery only boot into it temporarily. The method in my post worked just fine with the stock roms.

fastboot erase cache

didnt have any effect on the boot process. Thanks for trying.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grentuu:
Understand what you are trying to do but never tried it.

Does the phone meet all the normal requirements to run a custom recovery? (root/su etc)

You say it worked with stock roms. Where these rooted?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paul_viado:
Correct me if I'm wrong but I think the booting into recovery command has been disabled..just like the M7 where j came from and to my knowledge the newer bootloaders disabled that ..so you couldn't just boot into recovery you'd have to flash it.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graffixnyc:
Booting into recovery was not disabled on the m8. I have done it many times. It didn't work on the m7. The reason why it's not working on a gpe is the boot offsets are different. If you were on a sense rom it would work just fine. For the GPE when I did the conversion I had to use an unpublished recovery that allowed me to boot recovery..
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GallopingCow:
i've been trying to boot a custom recovery (without flashing) all night, and i'm running into the same issue here.

i have a brand new m8 harmon kardon edition on sprint, and am up to date as of today on all of the OTA updates.

i unlocked my bootloader, turned off fast boot, and rebooted to fastboot USB.

when i issue the command "fastboot boot recovery.img" i can see the loading bar in the top right corner of the phone, and then it reboots and loads normally without loading into a recovery.

all of this to say that i'm trying to create a backup of my own stock recovery, and have thus far had no luck. :(

Install Total Commander: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander and then

Install USB Stick Plugin: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.hechler.tcplugins.usbstick

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lucky_Slevin:
But its only a free trial :( I need something more permanent. Can I use the commander as a standalone app or do I need a plug in ?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vin4yak:
The free trial gets extended as and when the app gets updated... I have used it for ages!

Total Commander is a file manager and it needs USB Stick Plugin to enable USB OTG!

If you don't want to pay that's the only option if you're fully stock.

If are rooted, then you can try out different roms/kernels which have native support for USB OTG.. I can confirm that AICP with ElementalX works great! I just use ES File Explorer to browse my flash drive! :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] gilbnx:
Did you install any app that requires access to "Accessibility"?

Some apps like Tasker requires you to enable accessibility and you will get a prompt that says "If you enable accessibility for that app, you won't be able to use talkback, air view.... etc...."

I remember that back in S4, it caused problems and made talkback becomes active from time to time even when it was unchecked due to a bug.

I don't know if you did change accessibility or not but just wanted to mention that.

[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Make a nandroid backup, then install the rom with a full wipe. Don't restore any apps or data and use the phone for a while. Only install apps you really need like social media and message apps. If it's gone it's likely some app in the background causing it.
[HTC One X] Shiverfire:
I did that. Also checked the background apps and deleted all new or updated apps. Still showed up. I really don't understand it...

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
This makes no sense, you should mean 4.4.2 on FTF ending in 757

1) Flash a FTF ending in 534 (Find files and instructions in the mega collection thread in the general section)

2) Instal Dual Recovery (Find files and instructions in the dual recovery thread in the cross device development section)

3) Flash a pre rooted 757 rom (Find files and instructions in the "Update to 757" thread in the development section)

That's 4 times today I have written that, so I am batting at average today....
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustPlayingHard:
Thanks for the help. So all I need to do to get warranty back is to flash stock no root or recovery?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
There is no such thing as a stock recovery on sony phones

You will just need to flash a FTF file, but you do not lose warrenty by rooting

[Verizon LG G2] Tyberius777:
So I just updated my previously rooted LG G2 to Kit Kat with the Verizon Software Upgrade Assistant and all seems to be working great :)

I'm kind of confused about how rooting it again works.

Phone phone shows that it is still rooted in some places:

- About phone -> status -> rooting status = Rooted

- Holding down the power and volume down key for factory reset on device boot shows ROOTED up in the top left.

But the app is used last time to verify my root, Root Verifier, says NOT ROOTED after checking.

It's not rooted obviously since applications such as SuperSU are telling me they need root to run again.

Is it possible to re-root my phone on VS98024A?

Or will the root not work since the version is newer and not in that links list of compatible firmware?
[Verizon LG G2] mjones73:
ioroot25 should still work.
[Verizon LG G2] mzimand:
How did you do the update?

Did you have a custom recovery and then install stock recovery to do the OTA?
[Verizon LG G2] deny_kei:
Ioroot 25 work, i ve rooted my lg. I updated my lg to kk using verizon software updater. I just follow the instruction and the phone began to reebot into stock recovery. Follow the instruction then you rooted.

[Verizon LG G2] ubiquitous26:
Install LG G2 drivers, Download ioroot25, plug in USB and select Internet Connection >> Ethernet and then enable debugging for the ADB to see your phone. You can test this by running command prompt inside the ioroot25 folder (shift right click and open Command Prompt) and then typing 'adb devices' w/o quotes, if it lists your device then you are good to be rooted

Use towelroot to root 24A and then use autorec to install custom recovery.

BE VERY CAREFUL with autorec, as you install recovery based on your phone's model number.

Absolutely no computer is necessary to root 24A OTA. No data lost either.

No rules are broken

saiyammorakhiya you are not breaking any rules and you can ask questions about which one is better but at last it comes to personal preference. Don't feel bad about asking this question. Another thing you should note is that if you are going to use a custom kernel do check that the ROM you have on your CHD is stock or custom rom whose base is A116 stock.

jayadu no need to exaggerate. XDA's rules permits comparison and no the devs won't fight because they work as a community and share the patches with each other (for ex. the battery fix was shared) and most important of all they are grown-ups. If you think that they would fight over such a small thing there would be no XDA so you need your brains checked. Kernels and ROM's are compared all over XDA forums and is one way of many for devs to get feedbacks. So please stop telling what's right or wrong (for that XDA rules and mods are present) and answer what has been asked.

Ok I know there is a lot of dock and mount out there that are universal, but I was looking for one that works perfectly for the M8.

The only dock that saw that looks really good, is the HTC dock, but I really don't want to pay the HTC price, so my question is, does anyone know of a dock or even just a mount that works as well as the HTC dock without having to pay the HTC price?
[One (M8) Accessories] vectron:
Why not get something more universal to use with any phone or any case? You can check out my sig link, just scroll down to car mount reviews, I have a ton of those. Personally, I would highly recommend Arkon Mobile Grip 2 since it's the most minimalistic and can also be converted to attach to a picture tripod. Plus, it has one of the best sticky grip base.
[One (M8) Accessories] Captain_Throwback:
Because I don't think the third party mounts automatically switch the device into Car Mode when connected.
[One (M8) Accessories] Tom Fagerland:
Brodit. You buy a piece for your car and a piece for your phone, so when you switch cars, you buy a new piece for your new car, and when you switch phones you buy a new piece for your new phone.

They're not cheap, but they're built to take a beating and they work for years and years.

Plus, swedish design, yet no EFFING allen key.
[One (M8) Accessories] SBC44:
Except that Brodit/ProClip hasn't made a dock for the M8 yet :/ I emailed them about it the release date of the phone and they replied that they should have them ready in about a month. I have always been happy with their products though so I guess I'll have to wait...
[One (M8) Accessories] Tom Fagerland:
Don't know why they told you that, I already bought one from a webshop that had a picture of it. Granted it's not in stock, and probably won't be for a while, but they're clearly in production.
[One (M8) Accessories] SBC44:
This was the email from March 26:

Thank you for contacting us and for your interest in ProClip products.

We are currently designing a holder for the HTC One (m8).

This design process generally takes between 4 and 6 weeks once the design team obtains the device, but can take longer depending on the device.

Once we have a custom holder available for your device we will send you an email with a link to the products.

It sounds like a very boilerplate response, so that must have been all the info he had at the time. My understanding is that ProClip is just Brodit's exclusive US and Canadian vendor.
[One (M8) Accessories] Gungrave223:
This is exactly why I wanted a mount. I wanted it to auto which to docking mode.

I've never heard of this so I'll looking into this. Might be what I want assuming there is no screwing involved in mounting in the car and that it's not that expensive :fingers-crossed:
[One (M8) Accessories] Tom Fagerland:
The clip that fits in the car usually has glue strips, but often combine that with some sort of slip-in-between-the-seams stuff as well. Then you do screw the holder onto the clip, but that's probably not what you meant.

As for expensive... Yes, it gets expensive, but it's very good quality, which is worth it to me at least.

Oh, and here are the products. None of them are in stores yet, though.

[One (M8) Accessories] doaneramma:
I have been using the same iBolt kit since my Galaxy S3. Since then I have used it on the Note 2, Galaxy S4, HTC One and my brand new M8. All worked great as I got the dock-launching plugs for both the Samsungs and the HTC. However I just discovered that if you use the long USB with audio cable designed for the sammy, it will charge the HTC (slowly) but won't launch the dock mode. Which is annoying. I had to pull my deck out to uninstall it, and replace it with a standard USB cable. Now it works like a champ! Though I do wish that HTC would do USB analog audio like Samsung. It made car-integration so much better (quality of sound wise) than over bluetooth.
