I think we got a false alarm.... :o

Ich downloaded the files via Sony Update Service, but Flashtool ELABEL is "elabel-SGP312-row_201305301031.1_10.4.1.B.0.109.sin". This is the version i have already on the tab. Or am i wrong in this case? Why is SUS giving me this update?

Hi everyone!

I bought myself Tracer Oxygen GS1 and i had some problem with its software. I successfuly rooted smartphone, but then i tried to install new rom i found under this link:

The problem is, i bricked my phone. However it's still somehow recognized by my pc, so I'm not loosing my faith that it will still work.

So, if anyone of you could supply me original (or just working) rom for this device i would be very very grateful ;)

In this link you can read something more about this phone, I'm aware that it was made in China, but still, while it was working it wasn't that bad :)

Hey, I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy S4 I9500. I want to root it and install cyanogenmod 11 on it. But I read that there's some problem with Knox and how it ends your warranty if the flag changes to 0x1. I'm currently on Android 4.4.2 kitkat official ROM by Samsung. Can I root it without loosing my warranty? Also, I read that Kingoroot roots your phone and doesn't trip your knox counter either. Does anyone know about this?

The main thing I wanna do after rooting is change the DPI of my phone. I hate such big icons.

If your phone is unlocked

Sell it

Then get some little money then buy htc
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buggaby:
I have either a really easy question, or a series of more complicated (for me) ones. I have an HTC One that I want to use. It's currently running CM (installed through the one-click installation method at get.me). It's also currently locked to the Canadian carrier Telus. I want to use it on T-Mobile in the US. After some research, I just bought an unlock code. With a T-Mobile sim, upon booting it asks for an unlock PIN. I tried using the online purchased pin and it doesn't work. The seller of the pin said that it needs to be running a stock OS.

So I'm not sure what to do here. All I want is to enter the pin I bought and have the phone unlock. In its current state, the phone prompts for unlock pin, but doesn't work. So I figure I need to re-stock the phone, but I can't quite figure out how to do that. After several guides, I used a youtube video by called "How To Unroot and Flash your HTC One Stock!" by wwjoshdew. But it uses an RUU zip. I only found an RUU exe file that seems to match my phone's baseband and carrier. I followed the first few steps and loaded ADB and made the phone be "relocked" through the ADB command "fastboot oem lock". I then found an RUU that matches my baseband:

(From another xda thread that has a link for the RUU called "RUU M7 UL K44 SENSE55 MR TELUS WWE 4.19.661.8 R Radio 4T.24.3218.09 10.26.1718.01L Release 351500 Signed 2")

But when I try to run it (as admin), it just does some waity-mouse-becomes-clock stuff and then nothing. Computer is unchanged. Phone continues to sit in bootloader set in fastboot mode waiting for further instructions. I'm running Win 8.1. The only thing I can see if that the bootloader is 1.56 where many guides indicate it should be 1.55 or 1.54 or 1.44 or whatever. But the guide I'm using doesn't specify which. Is there something wrong with the RUU exe file? With my computer? With what?

ADB tells me this:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools>fastboot getvar all

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buggaby:
So now my phone doesn't completely boot. I was following a youtube description that had me relock my phone from fastboot (fastboot oem lock) and then use the RUU.exe file I found. It didn't work, so I started looking at other methods. It seemed that I needed to unlock the bootloader again, so I used the HTCDEV tool that has you download an "Unlock_code.bin" file from the HTC website. After doing that, the bootloader now says it's unlocked, but it won't boot into my CM version. I can unlock and relock my phone at will, and enter the bootloader, but it still doesn't boot to the main OS.

Any help? I just want to sim unlock it. If it's stock or not, I don't care anymore! :)

Thanks in advance!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
100% true, you must be stock to use a sim-unlock code. BUT some users reported sucessfully sim-unlocking using a code on ''close-to-stock'' rom like ARHD.

Better to ask here instead of following instructions from a youtube video. Many of them are outdated and doesn't consider your own situation, i.e you have s-off.

RUU,zip are manually flashed from fastboot RUU mode while RUU.exe is a more automated process.

baseband is not that revealant to find a ruu, always check for proper CID and MID (and if S-ON (not your case), you can only use a ruu with same or higher fw version, i.e 4.19.661.8 and above)

You don't need to re-lock bootloader to flash a ruu when you have S-OFF.

Windows 8.1 is sometime tricky when flashing stuff and have some drivers issue, make sure your phone is properly detected in windows device manager when you are in bootloader (should say ''My HTC'') Better to use win7...

Maybe! Check MD5 value of your ruu, if it doesn't match, download it again.

If you can't use a exe ruu then try with a ruu.zip

use this ruu

MD5: af07ac44a72085de3de93c791866fb47

I know its a long post, if something is unclear, just ask here.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buggaby:
Thanks!

Turns out the RUU was corrupted. The MD5 checker works now. But now when I run the RUU.exe, it loads in but can't find the phone. It's still there in fastboot mode plugged in to the computer. I can issue fastboot commands and everything, but it still comes up with an error when trying to find the phone.

And here I thought 8.1 was almost the same as 7. My driver says "SAMSUNG Android ADB device". I didn't really worry so long as fastboot commands were working. So even though cmd sees it, that doesn't guarantee anything? I don't easily have access to a windows 7 machine right now. Some other threads seem to suggest that HTC Sync might help. True?

Hi,

I'm on stock rom, stock recovery, custom kernel, unlocked bootloader and root... will I receive sense 6 OTA update?

By the way, which variable (custom kernel or custom recovery or uunlocked bootloader or root or other..) affects and locks OTA updates?

Thanks
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NxNW:
Pretty sure you need stock kernel. Also you have to have all of the original contents of /system.

Root, s-OFF, unlocked boot loader, none of those matter. Generally.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaHiLzZ:
Are you trying to screw up your system? :)

S-OFF while you are at it.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fuzi0719:
I've found that with the T-Mobile US OTA updates, anything but pure stock (except for S-OFF) will result in a failed update. I run the stock ROM but have it rooted. I reflash the stock recovery, relock the bootloader, have even "unrooted" the phone, but the OTA will still fail. Only way I can get OTA to work is to install the last RUU.zip (for the 3.24.531.3 update), then it will update to 4.19.531.10 and then to the latest 5.14.531.1.

Evidently T-Mobile encodes their OTAs to be exceptionally picky about updating.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tcpma:
eheh no, I'm already S-OFF
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:

If I get a chance, I'll write it up tomorrow :o
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tcpma:
Custom kernel will also block the OTA notification? With my current setup, how will I know if I'm able to update?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NxNW:
That, I don't know. For that matter, it looks like I have some more learning to do on the part I thought I *did* know. Let's see what nkk71 has for us. That's what the forums are all about, sharing information ;)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
I'm being lazy here, sorry :( ,but I did promise to post something

A) when do you receive and OTA notification:

1- the ROM fingerprint, CID, and MID must match (if) available OTA

2- does anything else matter (root, kernel, modifications, S-On/S-Off, etc., even recovery) -> NO, but they may below

B) the OTA updater-script

you need to be on stock recovery, custom recoveries will not work!

what will it check:

1- the ROM fingerprint, CID, and MID

2- if you pass those, the OTA will check the actual system files (thousands of them) using SHA-1 hash to confirm they are as expected. Why? because OTA is just a patch (diff) between two versions, so in order to patch a file (as opposed to replacing it), it

has

to be an exact match.... if even 1 out of those thousands of files is not as expected, the OTA will not work. ---> stock recovery will change to red triangle.

Note: this also usually includes the /data/preload folder which gets deleted when using HTCdev unlock.

what will it do if the above are OK:

* the OTA will patch the existing files

* delete any files no longer part of the update

* install any new files that come with the update

* and finally update the firmware (hboot, recovery, kernel, thouchscreen drivers, bootsplash, etc.) <- note, since the OTA is an update the firmware.zip will only contain the files that need to be updated, so for example, touchscreen drivers are not included in every OTA, only when necessary.

and to the big question, what will interfere with successful OTA:

any modification to the files the OTA checks (in step 2 above), so:

- does a custom kernel matter (boot.img) -> technically no,

but

custom kernels may also overwrite certain system files, so in

practice

yes they may interfere if some stock system file was changed.... not because boot.img is custom, but because the files in /system which got replaced. (so flashing back a stock boot.img will not solve this!!)

- does root matter -> same as above, if the root package modifies any original files then yes, otherwise no

- unlocked bootloader -> No, doesn't matter

- S-On/S-Off -> No, doesn't matter

I may have forgotten a few things, so feel free to add anything I missed :o

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:

in A, doesn't matter what your recovery is, but in B, it has to be stock recovery
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] randomA:
Ok so step A.

In my case, the update just shows the info in the attached screenshow. How do I know if ROM fingerprint/CID/MID etc. match and are compatible?

where to get the right stock recovery?

at the moment i'm on CWM/TWRP. No custom kernels and whatnot. Plain stock with root + custom recovery.

Anything else required to avoid bricking the phone?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
Stock recoveries can be found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2545227

(or you could download the OTA, pull it to your PC, extract the stock recovery from within it, and use that)

Hopefully no brick (but you have to be on a 4.xx firmware with hboot 1.56)

you may loose root, and have to re-root

PS: no need to relock bootloader, keep it unlocked

can't you just use Titanium Backup, to restore what you need from the nandroid? because restoring the nandroid will also downgrade your ROM again.
