[HTC Droid DNA] DuceTheTruth:
I hope not to make a duplicate thread but sorry if I do.

I took on this project trying to help a friend out. This is the first VZW phone I've operated on. I've been to multiple threads on different websites and tried various procedures all to no avail.

This phone was all stock b4 the update....tried to take the update and has been in a bootloop ever since.....phone gets stuck at the white HTC quite briliant screen.

I've tried unlocking the bootloader via revone but for some reason adb will not recognize the phone....although fastboot commands are not a problem....

I'm almost at the point of installing some linux distro just so I can try moonshine..

I've tried 2 different RUU's for this phone....both fail....

HTCdev failed me also.....couldnt get the token....smh

Turning the phone back in to VZW wasnt an option because is was opened previously...warranty voided.

any help would be good help as far as I'm concerned.

I'm still trying to figure out how to find out what firmware is on the phone....and I take it "fastboot getvar all" doesnt tell you that...

On both RUU's that I have...they tell me that I have image 4.09.(xxx) <---I cant remember the last digits right now

**SOLVED** HERE'S THE THREAD THAT HELPED ME. https://xdaforums.com/droid-dna/general/official-exe-ruus-s-t2935556

I can tell you that the phone is indeed on the latest update, bootloader, baseband, and version-main all indicate that it is on the 4.09.605.1 update, have you tried to do a factory reset from within the bootloader/stock recovery?

That may help, may not. since you are locked and s-on, there really isnt much else to do.

Just for the heck of it, have you tried to flash the flashable RUU-ROM.zip from my firmware thread? Probably wont work but idk what else there is to do, being as you are still stock and locked.
[HTC Droid DNA] DuceTheTruth:
Interesting.....

I have tried the factory reset in the bootloader and it just goes to a picture of a green down arrow with two green arrows in a circle facing clockwise.... Then goes back to white HTC screen...

And I did try the flashable RUU zip.... And I will try it again..

Is it true that have to unlock the bootloader before anything else?

I'm searching for ways to do that while in this bootloop state....

And then possibly downgrading?

And if this phone really is stuck I feel that Verizon is at fault here.. . Even if it was dropped and the back came off....

My friend told me that at the time the update came through he had very little memory....

And I've read elsewhere that the exact same issue caused similar problems on some phones....

I'm surprised there's no class action on the horizon.
[HTC Droid DNA] CHRIST STARZ:
Htc black screen with four triangles

Man I really need help. ...I tried to flash and something went wrong to where I erased the entire os and I continued to fix this issue because all I had access to was twrp(custom rom) and bootloader. then what was crazy is that it appeared that based on the fact that I was on 4.4.2 kit kat that I was unable to fix it. after researching I found a ruu that didn't have the boot image so I flashed the factory ruu with no boot image and my htc scrren with the status bar filled all the way up but it never moved off of that screen I assume because that ruu didn't have the boot image so I thought that common sense would be to at one of the boot images that I had to the zip file of the ruu without the boot image....that's when I made things worst and now im stuck on this htc screen with the four triangles...my pc wont detect my device and im in need of some serious help....can you help? can anybody help?
[HTC Droid DNA] CHRIST STARZ:
I believe i can help!!!

whats your current status? I just got myself out of a very bad situation with my htc dna just read some of the stuff ive posted in your thread.....are you s-off or s-on?
[HTC Droid DNA] DuceTheTruth:
it is s-on
[HTC Droid DNA] cmylxgo:
I'm in the same boat. OTA update crashed and now phone wont boot. It's S-ON with the latest radio and hboot. Apparently you can't downgrade with an older RUU. I cannot seem to find a 4.09.605.5 RUU anywhere. Any suggestions?

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mentalghost:
So after having my Xperia S for the last 2 years decided enough was enough with the WiFi problem GUESS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I GO TO SELL IT. The ****ing WiFi decided to work and continues to stay on. Starts to work with no reason after the amount of BS and problems I have had over the last 2 to 3 months trying many custom roms kernels and stock roms nothing working then all of a sudden bam it works when selling.

Phone must have a mind of its own saying ill work ill work don't sell me DONT SELL lol. I managed to get £140.00 exchange towards the z1 compact anyone think that was worth it?? £140 on exchange for the Xperia S 32Gig version. The Xperia z1 compact was £225 cash price with trade in paid £85 total 2nd. Also comes with 1 years guarantee with it and wasn't expecting any guarantee with a 2nd hand phone but cant grumble you don't get that on E of the Bay lol

Now comes my questions.

1 Can you change the glass on front without having to change touch screen or is this part of it? Not that I need it now but if brake in future I know.

2 Can you change the Back cover. Could do with changing as scratched to the max.

3 Can you buy the sides or full housing for the phone?

4 Can this phone be unlocked with software free. Or is it a matter of off to an unlock site and buy credit to do so or take down to local market?

5 How easy is it to unlock bootloader and root phone. Are they any versions to lookout for as I had in past with some phones had problems unlocking bootloader and had to remain on locked.. Is it just a matter of grabbing flashtool and unlocking or is their more to it with much newer handsets now?

Now on to the earphone jack and speaker at bottom of phone. The phone does say it is water proof however I do not see how it is when speaker and also earphone jack are not covered by any protective covers. Does this have some sort of seal within it to make water proof?

Thanks in advance.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hol17:
I can answer 2, 4, and 5 for you.

2 - Yes, you can change the back cover. Lots of users are doing it currently. Can check out the thread:

4 - Phone is already unlocked for any SIM so don't worry about that :)

5 - Sony provides instructions directly on their website for unlocking the bootloader. Rooting is really simple as like most devices, you just flash SuperSU.

If you don't want to unlock the bootloader but root your phone, it can take some extra work.

Waterproof - The headphone jack is internally sealed and the speaker grill has a membrane.

Might be good to mention to [MENTION=4523885]mentalghost[/MENTION] that in order to restore the phone to a completely factory state further down the line you'll need a backup of your TA partition. There are guides explaining how to do that here on xda.

thx guys however my phone is locked to o2 and also checked status on phone that bootloader lock status is NO. Is their a way around this?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frunzdoedel:
No
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rekoil:
No, you will most likely never ever be able to unlock that phone. The only possibility is if O2 has some kind of code they can give you to unlock the device (not sure if this is possible). Otherwise I would suggest returning it and buying one from Clove or CarPhoneWarehouse or something, as theirs are neither locked nor bootloader unlock disallowed.

Hi guys,

I'm using CM11 nightlies for quite a while. But since two weeks I can't send SMS anymore. Receiving is no problem, making calls also no problem, but just sending SMS doesn't work for me. I already tried several things (using Hangouts as SMS application instead of the default messaging app), did a full wipe, flashed a MJ9 modem of Joeldroid. But none of these things I tried solved the problem. What could it be? Are there some things I can try?

Thanks a lot!

Hi,

We recently got a puppy and she managed to chew up my watch while I was at work. The touch screen part of the phone seems to be in tact, but the camera and rubber strap portions are completely destroyed. I imagine that the connector to the speaker module would need to be replaced as well. Is there any way I can have the watch repaired? Or am I at the point where I will just need a completely new watch?

Thanks,

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Success100:
Okay heres something weird?

Aside from the crazy amount of distortion on the front camera, I've noticed before that when using the front camera that things worked fine before. Meaning the front camera has no problems focusing on me.

I flashed ViperRom the other day, and have noticed that every single of my pics from the front camera is not in focus and tapping the screen does not change anything.

My question is, does your front camera focus?

Hey guys,

So after a update to 4.4.3 it seems I lost all cell connectivity and cannot connect to a cell tower thus I have a expensive WiFi only device! Iv flashed different radio versions everything but no lucky.

Iv finally decided to book this in and get a RMA device. I order the device from Google USA and had it shipped via a post box forwarding company to my place in South Africa. I would like to find out for the RMA process will I follow these same steps ? Request RMA to be sent to post box company, then forwarded to me in which they will they collect my old device to ship back to USA post box and all sorted ?

Is there any special process I should follow and would this work ?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmdrogogov:
I'm running off the Vanir ROM at the moment, but due to the lack of camera wanted to flash it back to something more full-featured.

The problem is, any ROM i've tried (Carbon, RODT, Shohat etc.) comes up as being an invalid zip file.

I've tried both TWRP and Philz recoveries, and re-downloaded the ROM's multiple times.

Why would every zip I try to flash from be invalid?

Using the spring variant G900P.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Original Android Developm] whitemolecule:
Hi,

I managed to build latest TWRP for N5100/N5110.

This a test build you can flash from your existing recovery.

Odin packages and flashable ZIPs are now available for n5100 and N5110.

Download:

http://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=15631

What's new since 2.6.3.0?

What's new in 2.7.1.0:

Add GUI option to change or repair file systems on individual partitions. The change is destructive so backup your data including internal sdcard first. This option should make it a little easier to migrate a device from ext4 -> f2fs, for instance. You will find this option under Wipe -> Advanced Wipe, then select only one partition and then press the Repair or Change File System button. If a developer has added f2fs support for your device and we don't have it in TWRP, please contact me via PM to arrange for it to be added.

Various bugfixes to backup and restore

Improvements to USB storage handling

Added a class to search for files to make finding the correct brightness file automatic in most cases

Various other bugfixes and tweaks

NOTE: This is a test version and does NOT support f2fs, but you can switch to other filesystems

What's new in 2.7.0.0:

Faster graphics rendering by disabling alpha blending on fully opaque objects thanks to Tassadar

Allow sideloading from /tmp on encrypted devices

Check for a crypto footer before asking for a password to prevent user confusion

Additional checks for validity to auto generated backup names

Text wrap in the console output

Proper caps lock support in the keyboard

Mouse support via USB OTG for devices with a broken digitizer

Improve scanning of storage locations for OpenRecoveryScript

Haptic feedback for buttons, keyboard, and vibration at the end of longer running actions

Fixed ext4 wiping when no selinux contexts are defined for that partition (e.g. sd-ext)

Update SuperSU to 1.93 and improve installation process

Added selinux contexts restoration to fix permissions

Load RTC offset on Qualcomm devices to fix the date/time in recovery

USB Mass Storage fixes Add SELinux support checking

Add Disk Usage class to better handle excluded folders (e.g. Google Music cache)

Add 4.4 AOSP decrypt support

Add some toolbox utilities to TWRP (namely to support SELinux functions not supported in busybox)

Various SELinux fixes and bug fixes

Changelog:

Build 1:

-First release

@sbrissen for original port and maintenance of CM11 for n5100/n5110/n5120.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Original Android Developm] kstephens98:
Thanks for this. Seems It has problems with Aroma installers. The screen orientation specifically. The screen stays in landscape and only allows the top half of the screen to show the aroma installation, while the touch sensitivity is still in portrait. In other words you have to touch the screen as if it were in portrait and kind of guess where the buttons would be while the actual pictures on the screen are in landscape on only the top half of the screen and very stretched looking. Thanks again for your work.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Original Android Developm] ramjet73:
And that's why developers that use Aroma (like [MENTION=3986004]civato[/MENTION]) specify using Philz's Touch Recovery, which is a modified CWM, to flash their ROM's and kernels.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Original Android Developm] glockman4519:
Nice observation. That is what I figured as well.. I usually have a flashable version of TWRP and Philz touch at the ready. I do a lot of testing with my tablet, with different roms and how apps work and can be modified with each.
