is it possible to get back to default (old) cid after super-cid?

So basically will this work? : "fastboot oem writecid HTC_102"

Yes, while S-Off you can write any CID you like.

one thing with S-off

hi guys!

are the methods of getting custom recovery and root are still actual after 4.4.3 update?

Is root required for S-OFF and SuperCID or do can I just unlock my bootloader?

Need help please, when i try to s-off whith firewater

after the 1st command "adb reboot" the device reboot normally i hear the sound of plugged in device in windows but after few seconds while entering the other commands the device seems like unplugged and replugged again and the command doesn't work :(

so if anyone can help
[One (M8) General] boe323:
Use a file explorer app, must have root access, add firewater and change permissions yourself, and do the whole instructions again, get the waiting command in before the phone logs in. best thing to do is copy paste the waiting one so its quicker.

Thanks for this guide.. Like others, Firewater exploit didn't work on my device.. But Sunshine did.

Since Verizon is dragging behind with updating our firmware, again, is there any benefit or negative effects by updating to the most recent? I tried a 4.4.3 ROM with 1.54 firmware but WiFi doesn't work. Any advice appreciated, thanks for the guide Vomer. I'm S-OFF and SuperCID.

[One (M8) General] Brds7t7:
You should be able to call your provider and they can send you the settings in a text config message. Just say you accidentally deleted the apn settings.

Did the firmware include a radio.img? Also what's your model number?

Its an ATT model, but the problem is no apn's will save :( I put it in and save it but when it returns to the apn list nothing is there! Im so worried im screwed
[One (M8) General] Brds7t7:
Honestly, I'm not sure about AT&T but it shouldn't wipe apn when flashing firmware.

Does AT&T use same mid as WWE?

If you're on a stock rom maybe you could try a factory reset? That might restore apn? Or I would just hang on for a while and am sure someone with AT&T model could help. Best thing to do is not panic yet though. Pretty sure there's a way around it.

Sent from My Calculator!
[One (M8) General] elsworth1983:
Don't panic there is always a solution some where ;) what I would do is this make sure your m8 is fully charged make a nandroid then if you backed up your current rom without any modifications flash that if not flash any rom what Is good with your m8 check if your apn settings have stayed if not try and flash the firmware again maybe twice & see if that helps

[Galaxy Camera Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] semifast:
So there's an Ebay seller selling Verizon versions of the Samsung Galaxy Camera, EK GC-120, which the one I got has a Verizon demo that runs whenever I try to shut the screen off.

I read what I could here but it isn't clear to me if there's anything I can do about it ? I assume it needs to be rooted but since it's 4.1.2 I guess that's either impossible, or tricky for a novice such as myself..

Too bad because I think it's a neat camera, but I guess I need to steer clear of the GC120 and stick to a GC110, or GC100 ?

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Megalith:
Can anyone confirm that you can only move files to the external SD card using Samsung's File Explorer and not third party variations like ES File Explorer Pro? I believe this is because of an idiotic change that KitKat brought, but strangely, my Note 3, which was upgraded to KK, doesn't exhibit this problem (I can still move downloaded movie files to my external SD using ES File Explorer).
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zeblade:
I was trying this with my 16gb version that I sent back for 32gb version (comes tomorrow). I tried some appmgrpro3 and it show'd what I could move. It worked meaning I never used Samsung's file explorer. If by that you mean Samsung apps(shows all apps installed, next tab running so forth).. I THINK that opened after and I could pick storage or sd-card.

Yet for a program lets say 711mb. It would send the APP 11mb to the sd-card and leave the 700mb on storage. It did this for every app I could transfer. I hope that's just a bug.

Ok I think I read you post wrong. I dont think I even tried that yet haha sorry. I will get back tomorrow though
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Megalith:
Apparently, you should still be able to move files back and forth using an app like ES File Explorer, so I'm not sure what the issue with my Tab is. The card was formatted using the device itself, so everything should be fine. I am starting to suspect there is some kind of security bloatware involved.

Heck, I couldn't even erase a movie from MX Player Pro; it gave me a KitKat permissions warning.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nativ73:
There's an Xposed Installer module named KitKat SD Card Full Access, looks like it might be a promising post-root solution to the write issue.

You can use a Windows pc to download the Ubuntu ISO file. Burn that to a DVD. Reboot, making sure you can boot off the DVD. You can run Ubuntu in memory without affecting your Windows installation. Several people have reported that this works.

Personally, I have two hard drives on my computer and I already had Ubuntu installed on the other drive, just for doing stuff like that.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] LaZiODROID:
Or if you want the windows files, I probably have them archived. Just let me know if you want them. Note that unlimited.io / juopunutbear do not support the windows version at all any more. I did my s-off on windows (and I'm sure many others did too) and it worked out OK.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tatazeuz:
This is caused because you updated to 4.4.4 previously, and the partition table changed. When you tried to downgrade, the partition table didn't accept the old system image. Now you must wait for a 4.4.4 GPE image, that is the only thing that can unbrick your phone, since it will have the updated gpt.bin.

Unfortunately didn't work. But thanks for the help.

[HTC One V] JellyFox:
Due some problems with my HTC ONE (M7) i had to return it to the store and use my backup phone (HTC ONE V).

It has been a while since i used it, but before switching to my new phone, everything worked fine.

After more then a year, i need to re-use my HTC ONE V and i want to make the best of it till i get my other one back.

But after trying to install some apps i bumped in to some problems. When i looked up the apps in the Play Store, i didn't get the apps i searched for.

Later it asked me to do updates on the apps that were still on it (since they haven't been updated for over a year) but when i pressed to update them, nothing happened.

When i noticed that, i wanted to try updating them manually but when i opened up the app page's, it told me my device isn't compatible (which is weird since the apps are already on the phone).

I tried a method i see a lot with Google Play issues which is deleting the Google Play updates so it goes back to the state it was in when i got the phone and letting it update again, but it doesn't update anymore.

When i look at my devices on Google Play in my browser, i see the phone standing in the list but it says it hasn't been used for over a year. My email is linked to my Google Play on my phone so i tried installing apps by pressing install on the browser version but again nothing happened.

Is there a way to fix this problem?

I am considering doing a factory reset if there is no solution but i would like to avoid that.

What if you try to:

* delete Google Play data?

* install the newest gapps compatible with the ROM you are currently using? Wipe Cache and Dalvik after that.

* update Google Play App in the first place?

I'm referring to the access restrictions on the SD card that have been introduced in Kitkat. For instance, when using Quickpic, photos that are saved to the SD card can't be moved from one folder to another. That's just one example.

I checked my stock 4.3 rooted AT&T Samsung Galaxy S3 for an update in the settings and it said an update was available so I think it's the 4.4 KitKat update and so I downloaded the update and tried to install it but then it took me to a custom recovery mode and my friend told me I needed to get stock recovery / download mode for it to work so I flashed it on with ODIN and I checked and it worked. I then went back into the settings to check for an update and it said something like "Current software is up to date, you can check back in 23 hours and 21 minutes" and so I changed my time and date for tomorrow to bypass the wait and I downloaded the update OTA and while it was downloading I used Triangle Away to reset the binary counter back to 0 and then I tried to install it again and it seemed to be working fine and I got to an AT&T logo and a blue loading bar under it and next to that it said 5% so I went out of the room to let it load all the way and then when I came back I saw my phone rebooting and then everything was still the same when it rebooted so I checked the Current software in the settings and it still said 4.3 and I checked for an update too and it said "Install interrupted, try again in 48 hours" or something like that and so I changed my time and date to 2 days ahead and I am currently downloading it again. What should I do?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mschandler76:
I've run into the same problem. I'm running completely stock aside from being rooted, I unrooted my phone but it still wont take the update. It gets to about 28% then reboots and says that it failed. I'll probably just go ahead and put custom recovery on and not even worry about the update at this point.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] internethuman:
I also made it only to around 27% and it reboots and fails, all this with root and stock recovery. I tried the OTA update with custom recovery from the settings and it just rebooted without even getting to the loading screen of AT&T.

Just so I wont break the rules if there is one about links like on many forums, I'll put the file here. Also, yes I did boot into stock recovery but I didn't try to wipe data and cache since, I'm not trying to delete my files.
