Anyone mind on lending a hand please? I can't get the ota to install, when I choose the sd card (I've also tried doing the thing from internal storage) on recovery, I only get the message "check cid failed" and it reboots by itself. Is there another way to install this ota? Please help me on this one, I've been checking all around xda with no luck. Thanks a lot in advance!
[HTC One Max] hgoldner:
Gotta run it from the Verizon OTA if you're on Verizon. No other way. If you can boot anything else and get Sunshine to run, you can change to SuperCID and then other ROMs may work. Verizon One Max is very picky. Fewer custom ROMs run on it than other variants. I have NuSense running just fine, but first started with stock and did RUU update to latest stock ROM.
[HTC One Max] miguelmaldonado:
i finally did it with other files . . im outside us so i would have never been able to do it the regular way! thanks for answering(: if anyone faces the same issue i did, be sure to pm me!
[HTC One Max] hgoldner:
FWIW, my experience is that because of so little support for the device now, if you can get S-OFF with Sunshine (assuming your device doesn't have the original ROM which weaksauce could crack), you can SuperCID the device which makes for a broader choice of ROMs, etc. One other thing to remember is that so long as you want the fingerprint scanner to function, the bootloader has to be locked, so you have to remember to unlock before flashing and relock afterwards. That doesn't impair TWRP's ability to make nandroids, etc., just flashability.
[HTC One Max] Flyhalf205:
Just wanted to pitch in and say if you are S-OFF there is no reason to SuperCID. Only a International variant and few sprint devices would it do much good. But we need to make sure he has right specs

Can you plug your phone into your computer and execute this fastboot command? fastboot getvar all Make sure you don't post your imei and meid.
[HTC One Max] miguelmaldonado:
thanks for the help, i didnt manage to root, and ive no way to pay for sunshine . . someone wanted the phone so i no longer have it . . thought id be able to root at least to be able to move files from internal to external storage . . and i really looked for that, yet i found no other way than sunshine. . id pay if i could. . so thats pretty much the end of my short story with the verizon one max, thanks everyone (:
[HTC One Max] treetolber:
I've got a quick question. I'm trying to flash the 3.09.605.2 RUU but I get an error with every version I've downloaded. I have successfully flashed updated hboot to 2.49 and the bootloader says that the 3.09.605.2 is the OS. But when I reboot and check the software version it still says 1.11.605.4. And flashing the 3.09 in fastboot only gives me an error. I've tried with the SD card also and it doesn't recognize the file.

Any suggestions?

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] JunoZXV:
Ok, so this is a really silly idea, is there a way to use my Note 10.1 as a secondary monitor from my graphics card? I'm using an ASUS MARS 760 with a DVI converter and was wondering if it was possible to plug it into the HDMI to MiniUSB on my note and use the note as a 2560X1600 Display. The main reason is so that I can have a 299 DPI while playing Watchdogs/Skyrim. The Operating system of the display computer is Window 8.1 SP1

A further question is, while using this set up is there a way to use the Speakers, Wacom pressure touchscreen and the front camera built into the note as well? Essentially making this thing a hybrid of a Ciniq and an all in one monitor and an intended touch screen for Windows 8.1. The graphics card also has a Mini Displayport output.

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] JunoZXV:
So an update:

TwoMon and iDisplay work great as a second monitor if you're using the graphics from the processor via usb, so games that are meant to work with intel graphics go without much of a hitch (save for the 40FPS of the programs... but I don't know much about modding apk files. Let alone screen refresh rates). So far no go with the graphics card. I still haven't figured out if there's a way to get a tablet to accept input via an HML cable. Does anyone know if this is possible? Or am I just wasting my time on a futile effort?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Freakstyler:
MHL etc on Tablets and Phones is strictly for output. Which is a shame, as using it for such things could be cool.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] deV14nt:
I'm not quite sure what you're trying to do, but I've been thinking about using my tablet as a second screen or remote display for Win8. I plan to get Microsoft's Remote Desktop for Android, but need to get the 8.1 Pro upgrade to make it work. I might also try JUMP Desktop, which also requires 8.1 Pro, and has full touchscreen support, making it just like using a Win 8.1 tablet, but remotely. I have a good university network so it should work well from all over campus. I'm just hoping I can get the full resolution and can do it headless with just a desktop with no monitor and my old GTS 450 in it. Almost definitely not good enough lag-wise for gaming though.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] warboat:
Remote Desktop?

How about just running a remote desktop like Splashtop and using it like a windows tablet.

Try and get the fastest wireless connection you can setup and it should work pretty reasonably fast as a remote desktop.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] JunoZXV:
Dangit. Well at least that's what I was looking for. Do you think it might be possible to find a cable that could take an HDMI and put it to USB micro? Or perhaps Mini Display Port?

[MENTION=1869828]deV14nt[/MENTION]

I need it to be wired. Doing gaming via wireless is really laggy. Basically I'm trying to use my tablet as a 1600p monitor for gaming. Wireless would cause too much latency. I'll look into JUMP desktop and Remote desktop to see if the pressure sensitivity can work for drawing.

[MENTION=271100]warboat[/MENTION]

I'll give splashtop a try too.

What I'm trying to do is have a high resolution display with a PPI of 299 so that way I can play my games and see the entire screen on 10 instead of 24+ inches. From far enough away I should be able to make out what's going on my tablet without grain and just see the polygons. Making the most of Anti Aliasing.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] talz13:
Are you going to be gaming on the 10" screen at your desk, or you want it as a portability option? To play while you're connected to the school LAN from across campus?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Soul0Reaper:
You do realize that when your as far away from your monitor as you should be, that dpi is pointless? Its the same reason why only really huge tvs need 4k.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] JunoZXV:
Wired. I want to take the output of my graphics card and put it into the 10" screen. While playing across a range would be sweet, there's only a few devices that Iknow that can do that wirelessly, and that's because they have TEGRA 4 chips but they don't have high enough resolution. Doing a wired connection means that the tablet doesn't die from power drain and has direct reception from the graphics card.

Yes, I do realize. I have eyes. However, your questions don't really help. I'm trying to get the output of a graphics card and use my tablet as the monitor. IT's not a matter of pointless DPI, it's a matter of using a table as a display for high end graphics.

The reason for the 10 inch real estate is to cut down on space as well as the effect of tunnel vision. Having 2560x1600 pixels in a smaller real estate enables me to see everything on screen in one view instead of having to shift my gaze momentairly to glance the corners.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] deV14nt:
I used to think that too. But I saw data on what DPI humans could perceive at a given distance. It's definitely way higher than I thought at 1-2 feet. We still have a ways to go past 300 DPI, regardless of what Apple might say about Retina.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Soul0Reaper:
As far as I know, there is no native solution to make the tablet act like a regular display that accepts input, you could try taking it apart and hack something together I suppose. To the best of my knowledge, sitting the recommended distance from 27 inch monitor let's you see all of it in one view easily. Basically unless you really just want to have a tiny tablet monitor for the sake of having it, there really isn't a reason. I could definitely get behind having a cheapo wacom slate tho lol.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] JunoZXV:
Well it's been a while. I manged to get the tablet to work up to 40 frames using the USB to Micro cable However this is using a third party app and it's laggy as all heck when it comes to gaming (Display wise it is pretty, so movies are a go-go). It does however work great for non intensive things like Office or internet browsing.

I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to create a driver that will enable me to have it preform the way I want (by reversing the input of the HDMI to Micro USB)

I'm now trying to flash the Generic ES version 4.4.2 to the device, because the BE update still hasn't arrived.

But every time I do, Flashtool tells me the drivers are missing. But they're not, I've installed them.

I've no idea what's going wrong. I've installed & re-installed the drivers at every flashing attempt, the latest 20140318 drivers.

I've installed the Flashmode & Xperia Z (and SO-02E) drivers, before flashing, but every time I try to flash, it tells me the drivers are missing...

Can anyone help or advise? It's unusual, because it's normally quite straightforward.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidtweaker1:
Download the latest version of flashtool from http://www.flashtool.net/download.php

navigate to the driver folder and install the fastboot and flash mode drivers.

open flash tool put your phone is fastboot it will install the latest drivers automatically.

After that you can flash 4.4.2 ftf
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lemonwilly:
Thanks

Hey man, thanks for replying so quick, would like to get this done tonight.

In have the latest flashtool, I also tried installing the flashmode, fastboot & xperia z drivers to no avail.

But once I installed those drivers, from the 20140318 pack, I simply tried to flash the device.

So what you're saying is to;

*Install the drivers.

*Run fast boot mode.

*Then run flashmode.

I presume, as with flashing, I need to have the device turned off when attempting fast boot mode?

If you could confirm, thanks. I don't fancy any bricking or bootlooping, it's gettin late...! ;)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidtweaker1:
Okay, do this.

uninstall whatever flashtool version you are using at the moment.

follow the procedures that i had previously quoted.

download the latest ftf from here

open flashtool press the lightning button, select fastboot select the ftf file

put phone is flashmode turning off device, press volume down key and collect usb the process should start automatically.

PS: the latest version of flashtool is 19/04/2014

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lemonwilly:
Thanks, but...

Yes, I just downloaded the newest version of Flashtool last night, 0.9.16.0.

When you say 'open Flashtool, press the lightning button, select Fastboot select the ftf file' - do you mean select Flashmode? Because that's what I've been doing, and it hasn't been working.

When I select Fastboot, it pops up with a screen asking to Reboot into fastboot mode (via ADB), select Kernel to HotBoot, Get Ver Info, Check Current Device Status, Select system to flash, etc.

I presume I don't use these options? Because they don't correspond with what you're telling me to do. Selecting the FTF through Flashmode does. There's no option to select an FTF in Fastboot mode.

*Selected 'flashmode', and 'flash'.

*Preparing files for flashing..... (takes a few moments)

*Say Please connect your device into flashmode.
