Hi, followed the instruction from this link http://sakitechonline.com/how-to-get-s-off-on-your-htc-one-m8-all-models/

and I’m stuck on the FINAL STEP: Run firewater tool to Gain S-OFF on your HTC One M8

When I enter the below command, it doesn’t do anything. Any idea what the problem might be?

adb wait-for-device push firewater /data/local/tmp

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] feizy:
You have to let the program know where firewater is. If the file is located at the base of the C drive then it would look like this

adb wait-for-device push c:\firewater /data/local/tmp

Then you will see a message that it was pushed.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] ooxteme:
I just got my m8 today and firewater doesnt seem to be working anymore...
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] feizy:
Did you get a "Whelp" message? If so, certain M8s cannot s-off with firewater. The issue seems to be random.

If you did get the whelp message and feel like paying $25 you can use this method:

where is firewater saved on your computer? you should probably do some more homework first.

It would appear that the Firewater file is in the same directory as his SDK, according to his screenshot in his first post.

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] pengo:
As I have read through the threads in this forum, I am not the only one with this problem, but for some reason none of the solutions make sense to me.

Earlier today, I was trying to use the "Prophet AKU2.3 pdamobiz customized rom released [G3 Only]" to downgrade and didn't notice that my XDA NEO is 4G (the tool is for 3G only). Now after each boot the screen is stuck with the Boot Page showing:

IPL 2.15.0001

SPL 2.15.0001

GSM 02.19.21

OS 1.0.13.21

I am so pissed at myself and so frustrated.

I have tried hard-resetting and the problem still persists. I am able to get into the Bootloader by holding the camera button and pushing soft-reset. I am just not sure where to go from here. I connected the phone per usb to the computer. The phone indicates that it's connected to USB. Every ROM upgrade file I have tried gives me an update error, since they are all expecting the phone to be connected to the computer through ActiveSync.

I bought this phone in Germany and currently live in the US, so it will be tough to send it back for repairs. Plus, I don't even know if I have the original receipt anymore.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] shayd:
Extract the rom file you are using to flash your phone, to a folder on your pc, than Extract the file i attached ("ROMUpdateUtility-NoVendorID.zip") into this folder. than connect your phone to pc and double click on "ROMUpdateUtility-NoVendorID.exe".

cross your fingers.

I guess the trick was to reboot the computer first. After the reboot, I was able to use the provided No_Vendor_ID Updater to reflash again. Now it's all set. Thank you very much for the advice.

[Nexus 10 Accessories] cpgeek:
I just got a nexus 10 and find that it's constantly being covered in fingerprints and smudges and the like to the point where i can see them as i use it. I was curious if there was an oleophobic spray or screen protector or something that I should be picking up (preferably for fairly inexpensive).

what's the best for this? does anyone here have any specific model recommendations?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] datawrhsdoc:
The GreatShield Ultra Anti-Glare (Matte) Clear Screen Protector works great for this. Took me a day or two to get used to the matte surface, but I like the feel of the surface much better with it on than off. The glass on the Nexus 10 is just a bit too slick for me to smoothly write on. Of course, the screen protector takes care of the glare and finger smudges quite well.

Hello!

I'm writing, becouse I have a Lumia 710 phone which had the latest original updates etc. till yesterday, when I unlocked ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1721355 - using this method ) and flashed to Rataplan Final using the downloader inclueded ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2551295 ). Everything went perfect, the mod is awesome (thanks to the developers). The problem started today, when I decided to SIM unlock my phone using http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1778454 this method and I connected my phone in normal mode via USB and started NSS 0.51.

When I select Nokia USB connectivity, and hit detect, it detects that the phone is in normal mode, but it doesn't show anything about the bootlader (the field remains blank)

The problem continues - somehow the OSBL mode seems to be not working properly: the NSS cannot get into it: the Nokia USB connectivity turns into flash disk. When I manually try to get into OSBL mode, the phone does a short buzzz but then the screen remains black, and the NSS doesnt find Nokia USB connectivity just the flash disk, and can't detect the phone[IMG="Cannot detect the phone"]http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2815578&stc=1&d=1403636144[/IMG] . After I disconnect from the USB and have to remove the battery then put it back so I can turn on the phone. What could be the problem?

I'm not following you at all.

You want to root. You started with a program (vroot) which is not known to work on Kit Kat. But you think that it's OK, because it's Chinese. Then you refuse to use Samsung signed factory images to recover your phone. Why? Because they're from Japan?

On a clean NC5 build, Towelroot seems to root just fine. Why not use that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hisham2630:
why are you angry like that.

i didn't refuse to use samsung factory images...i have used them many times to recover from soft brick...i have bricked my phone about 5 times..

this happen because play sytem files or build.prop file.

not matter for me if i used factory images from china or japan....iam not japaness or chiness.

my image was clean but only towel root dosen't work for me so i use the two programs...ok

vroot has been updated to work with kitkat if you have the latest version of it...but on some device may not work properly but it can push su file into /system/xbin....thank you.
