[AT&T HTC One (M8)] TheEmpyre:
Ok well you shoud know whether or not you installed HTC Sync Manager, because it would have prompted you to do so when you plugged your phone in for the first time to your PC.

Also, just to clarify, when you click Get Token ID, nothing happens at all? Or does your phone make it into the bootloader screen?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] nash2000:
When I plug my phone in I do get 2 pop ups, one that says theres hardware to install and an auto play pop up that does say sync manager "USB driver update is available" I've always closed those...should I run the sync manager update? No my phone does nothing when I click token. I get a black box that says device not found.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] nash2000:
Well I installed sync but now when I click token I'm told my device is offline.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] TheEmpyre:
Have you rebooted your PC since you installed the drivers, tried unplugging your phone and plugging it back in to ensure the drivers have installed? You may need to clean up your drivers - there is a tool you can use, I will point it your way. But let me know if you've performed a reboot

Just saw your last post: Make sure now that your HTC Sync is completely closed before you use the toolkit. And by completely exit, I mean you must find the icon in your system tray once you close the program, and right click + Exit. Then try the tool again.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] nash2000:
No I haven't rebooted...I'll do that now.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] nash2000:
OK, I was able to get into boot and copy my token but when I clicked submit token it opened up an web page but the web page was blank. I remember that I needed to be logged in to the HTC site so I used the link that was emailed yesterday for account confirmation. I'm wondering if I need to log in thru the toolkit??
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] TheEmpyre:
http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/

Here is where you need to go, make sure you login - Select the HTC M8 on the list and it will walk you through the process of unlocking your bootloader. However, I am unfamiliar with the toolkit as I am running a mac, and unlocked my bootloader and rooted through different methods. But that is the web-page you must go to. I'm guessing the instructions on the toolkit instruct you to go through that process outlined at the HTC-Dev website.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] nash2000:
Still no dice...I'm getting a blank web page when I click the submit token button.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] TheEmpyre:
Did you go to the website I provided? You can get your unlock token by following the steps provided on the website.

I suppose I should say that if you are not familiar with running fastboot commands and getting your phone into the bootloader then you probably shouldn't use the website there....Perhaps post on the thread for the toolkit to see if anyone can figure out why its not working for you
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] nash2000:
I did go to the link and logged in with same result. The instructions state that I only need to be logged into the site. This is my 1st HTC phone so I'm not fimilar with everything yet. I did post in the Dev section...waiting for a reply.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] nash2000:
OK, so I was able to fix the web page issue. It was a problem with Firefox...I uninstalled it and now I'm able to open the toolkits Dev and token pages but I have another dumb issue. I swear I'm not this dumb but when I copy the token and paste it into the webpage...it seems to only copy this < and nothing else. I tried it a few times with same result. I did close everything down and tried to copy a random chunk of token and it did copy/paste but now when I copy it pastes the same small chunk. I rebooted my PC in hopes to removing everything I have copied. We'll see...
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] nash2000:
I can now copy and paste the token but what would you know....another issue. It must be user error but I'm following the exact instructions. When I copy the code (token start to token end), paste it then click submit...it tells me "invalid boot loader token length". It appears to the look the same as the example given on the site. The guy that posted the video said that it didn't copy a few lines when he pasted his token and he had to manually input them in. I can't see what he was missing due to him blacking out his code. Has anyone else come across this?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] TheEmpyre:
If there is even an extra space at the end of the paste it will register invalid. You must make sure there are no spaces. That was often the problem whenever I ran into the same error. Make sure you don't delete any other symbols accidentally as well. It's very precise.

Sent from my HTC One_M8
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] nash2000:
I'm pretty sure I was spot on with my copy. There's 4 > symbols before the token and 5 at the end. I copy from the 1st < all the way to the end. I'll do it again to make sure I didn't copy any blank spots...I'll update later on.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] nash2000:
You were right. The token pastes one spot over to the right...so I manually backed up each line and it worked. Next I had the file emailed to me. I downloaded the file (unlock_code.bin) Im assuming that the file I need to use is the MiB.bin that's in my down load folder.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] TheEmpyre:
Should be just the bin file, just read the instructions and rest assured you can't go wrong. Glad you got the token. Let me know when you're all unlocked! You're so very close my friend.

Sent from my HTC One_M8
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] nash2000:
Do you know what the file is called once its downloaded? The file that I downloaded from my email is called unlock_code.bin but I dont see any file with that name...I only see MiB.bin and it didn't work. I'm using chrome browser...maybe I'll try firebox or something. It seems I have an issue after every single step....its frustrating since I'm following very simple instructions.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] sytech55:
Is it possible to remove the verizon S4 phone (radios-I think that's what it's called) so the phone will only connect using a WiFi connection.

Basically I want to remove the Verizon connection so I can use the phone on WiFi only.

I'm going overseas and want to still use my phone for it's WiFi capabilities. Maybe use Skype or Hangouts for any calls.

Phone is rooted with stock settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] trollishtrucker:
Remove SIM card maybe? Turn off mobile data and leave Wi-Fi on? Much easier than trying to pull or erase the radios.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Oishikatta:
I believe Verizon uses RUIM (i.e. sim card) for the S4 for both CDMA and LTE, so I'd agree with the above that removing the SIM should be the easiest way to de-link from a Verizon account.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
I agree- remove the SIM and you won't get any data. However, I'd also disable mobile data. And, removing the SIM will probably pop up a warning that there's no SIM.

To stop network data, open Settings, More networks, Mobile networks. Remove the checkbox from "Mobile data" and you won't use any mobile data.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] egore93:
Airplane mode is a simple way also.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mikecc:
OK guys, Im not a linux-n00b, but am an android n00b. I flashed the cyanogenmod ROM onto my nexus 7 2013, built some kernel modules for it, but insmod'ing it says that function isnt implemented. lsmod says /proc/modules is non-existent. What gives? I thought these custom ROMs came with kernel module support. I downloaded the CM kernel source and their default config has a bunch of features and modules that I don't have after flashing the ROM onto my tablet.

Do I need to re-build the kernel to get all these features? Or did I miss a step and forget to flash on the rest of the stuff.... Thanks...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] droidshadow:
What are you trying to add?

And yes you are going to have to rebuild the kernel with the modules you want to add/implement.

Depending on what you are trying to add, my bet is that there is already a kernel out there that has what you are looking for. Start looking at other kernels. I would definitely look into the ElementalX kernel.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firozu:
Hi all,

First off I may be in the wrong section i have the samsung galaxy s2 t989 (t-mobile) but i can't find that forum.

I already have the hell kat rom on mine right now so installing custom roms is not a problem. I wanted to know if their was a custom rom that is specifically tailored for use in the car.

For example it would have the car dock built in, a gps app that can be used without data, wake when it is connected to charger and stay on while connected. Voice control for music ect...

I know i could just source together all the specific apps i need. But if its out there why re-invent the wheel.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firozu:

I'm using CM11 Kitkat, and it comes with all of those features your looking for. Haven't heard of one for the Hercules specifically designed for a car, bit all of it should come pre-installed, after you flash the rom, and gapps. The only issue with the CM11 Rom I'm using now, is that the bluetooth doesn't really work that great, if at all. It is a nightly, but I haven't really had problems... Check this out:

I have been trying to find a place to download Jolla Sailfish, but have not found any download links on the site. Is there something I'm missing? Or is it not available? If there is a place to download, are there also the install instructions?

Thanks!
[Sailfish General] nh1402:
That would be because there is no sailfish image available for any phone other than the Jolla phone, the Nokia n9, and the nexus 4.

The HADK (Hardware adaptation development kit) for android devices has not been released yet. Once it has, then there will be installation instructions, and a sailfish image to flash. It should be out in a few weeks time.
[Sailfish General] lordkennedy99:
Thanks! Is there anywhere you know of where I can find more information about HADK?

[Sailfish General] Stefan Caromov:
Another question, i am sorry i ask in this thread

If i buy nexus 4, is the sailfish is fully integrated with all his updates support as the real jolla is, or this is same as on nokia n9 ?
[Sailfish General] nh1402:
I don't own one, so I'm not sure, but I don't think OTAs are available through the phone.
[Sailfish General] RumoredNow:
No update capabilities at this time. Each new version requires a fresh install.

This is Betaware and not for use as a daily driver or prepared for public distribution as of yet.
[Sailfish General] Stefan Caromov:
So, if i want to use all capabilities on the OS i must buy jolla?

Because i have a N9, but the OS has a lot of bugs here and i dont use it at all. I understand that on nexus 4 will be exactly the same.
[Sailfish General] RumoredNow:
Maybe a bit more patience is needed. Certainly if you can get a Jolla Phone it will do everything a Jolla Phone will do. ;)

I don't have that option. Jolla is not selling in the US yet. So I wait and see. But the team working on the port seem to be making great progress. :highfive:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] usho:
Hi all,

I just received a replacement S3 from a insurance replacement and it came with 4.1.2 and I have yet to update it to 4.3. I would like to root and unlock the phone and possibly install a custom ROM.

From reading the forum I noticed that 4.3 doesn't have a way to unlock the bootloader as well as some high potential to brick your phone.

I'd like to keep the phone as fully functional as possible, but there is one big reason I want to root it. I will be going out of the country in a couple weeks and would like to be able to purchase a sim card there and use the phone as much as possible. Phone/text/data. From what I have read that is only possible if your phone is rooted. Is that correct?

I also don't mind rooting my phone, as I've done it with my other devices for the other benefits.

I'm also considering installing a custom rom, but have questions with all this.

So with all that in mind I reach out to you great minds to hopefully answer a few questions:

- If I root my device on 4.1.2, is there a way to prevent it from taking in the 4.3 update? Is there anything negative I should worry about by blocking the 4.3 update if possible.

- What would be the easiest/best way to root. Is this still a good toolkit? (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2332825)

- From what I have gathered, the main thing to get data internationally would be to root the phone and use an app to change the APN? Is there anything else? Is this thread still valid? (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=29640360&postcount=1) Do I need to do anything in particular for international phone/text?

- I would like to install a customer ROM, but not sure which one to install. I would like a light/stable ROM that keeps the most functionality, if not all. Is there a ROM comparison list?

- Will installing a rom break things like Microsoft Exchange, Google wallet, Google music subscriptions, etc.? I guess this could be answered with the previous question.

I've rooted and installed roms before on other devices but I was a little worried with the posts I've seen of people bricking phones due to the 4.3 update.

Thanks for any help you guys can give.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kidhudi:
option 1:root the phone

flash a recovery ( cwm and twrp will both stop any "updates")

unlock bootloader ( use ez-recovery)

possible option 2:i don't know if the one click method might unlock,root and install custom recovery

dont forget to create a nand backup

you are so lucky :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
The method for root you posted is your best bet. Casual works great.

I would recommend preventing the update, root, and control your phone yourself. I was rooted, running CleanROM which I loved with Apex launcher and several other options that I enjoyed. Water damaged my phone and was sent a replacement that grabbed 4.3 faster than I could blink. Now I'm not as happy.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] usho:
Thanks for the replies so far.

I used Casuals to root and unlock, but when I loaded the recovery I kept getting into boot loop. Was able to get out of it by pulling the bat. I loaded TWRP from Google play and it's working fine now.

Questions is now, which ROM to load?

Also, on the stock ROM I'm still getting the popup to install the update. How can I stop that and prevent it from installing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
It really depends on what you want. I'd be careful as mods don't like it when people start asking which roms are better. I'd look around at the different roms and decide for yourself. I've used them all pretty much and I prefer Wicked but I'm on a kk rom right now

I'd suggest freezing two apps with titanium backup. sdm.apk and fwupgrade.apk

Thanks. The which ROM question was kind of rhetorical.

My problem now is I can't load any ROMs or do any backups. When I go into TRWP and attempt to make a backup the Internal and External storage shows as 0 MB. Nothing happens when I click on them

When I click on the log I get a bunch of errors:

E: Unable to find partition size for '/boot'

E: Primary block device "...." for mount point '/data' is not present

E: Unable to mount '/data'

E: Unable to mount internal storage

and a bunch more.

Tried restoring defaults, tried to mount the internal and external but nothing happens.

I am still able to reboot into the system and bring up the stock ROM.

I tried looking up the various errors, but am not really sure what I need to do now? Should I try a different Recovery? If so, I can't load from SD because it wont recognize it.

Not sure what I need to do now? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey guys,

So I just got this device last night. I set up a virtual linux workstation and started downloading my source from samsungs site. - My only problem is that for the 10.1 wifi model, 520, theres like one package.. Then there's the 525's package, the one ending with "UANAF", apparently my device is of the model "520", but it has the UANAF. I wanna start reading up on building a kernel and a CM port from scratch.. (I never did before but I'll see if it's doable in some way..) Would I be able to at all build a CM build from this file? And also, do I use the 525 package or the 520? I'm a bit confused as to why my build is called UANAF when on the site, that's the one for 525.. I just really dont wanna study and then end up compiling from a wrong package and then **** up my device before I really began..

Hay. - I'm attaching an image so you can see what I mean by 520 and UANAF.. Hmf.

Cheers if you have any info on what package to use or can hand me some nice starter stuff. As of now, I found out how to build the rom itself, but the kernel building, I'm a bit confused about still. I dunno what files to grab and how to compile. But I have dreams. Don't take them from me. <3

It will do the upgrade all over again.

dont let the comp reboot again.

tip make sure all programs and stuff are not running. just keep the computer at minimal(activies) all should go well.
