yup it will keep failing, its the wrong ruu the 401 in the title of that ruu is the key 1.29.401.2, its specifies region and carrier, yours is 161 Vodafone 4.19.161.11.

you cannot s-off without a working rom on your phone, and due to your hboot version, the only tool that will work for you is firewater

adb commands only work in a working rom or from inside recovery.

fastboot commands only work when your phone is in the bootloader.

there seems to be a bit of confusion going on there.

TAMPERED and UNLOCKED flags are normal, you cannot get rid of them without s-off, and you have them because you unlocked your bootloader, do not relock it, leave it unlocked, you'll be in all sorts of mess if you lock it again now.

I'm now s-off by flashing

then running firewater in CMD

im now in the pickle of needing a stock rom either vodafone uk branded or htc's unbranded rom.

ive tried manually installing the vodafones OTA update with stock recovery installed i get the error

i guess i would need the stock rom reinstalled to apply the sense 6 update?

cheers for your help so far :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seanie280672:
Well first you need to change your cid to HTC__001 that's 2 underscores not 1, make sure you get it right.

Put your phone into fastboot mode, make sure it says fastboot usb on the screen.

Then from your fastboot / adb folder on your computer, open a command window and type "fastboot oem writecid HTC__001" without the quotes

Then "fastboot reboot -bootloader"

Your cid should now be HTC__001

leave your phone in fastboot mode and download and run this, your battery must be 50% or more before running the ruu or any updates

i flashed a new rom using twrp but when boot it stucks on samsung logo then i format data and do full wipe and data reset

the phone now is without any os and i cant use odin cause it doesnt recognize my phone and i cant do mount usb in twrp

plzzz help me with any solution that can help
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mohammed779:
You need download mode for odin though..

And .. Try AOSP ROMs like CyanogenMod .. Maybe they would work.

And if you don't have any ROM file on your phone, you would need a memory stick to transfer from your PC..

Hey gang!

(I tried searching this forum for my issue, but the search form keeps giving me errors like "An error occurred while performing a Searchlight query:

connection to 10.0.100.17:9312 failed (errno=111, msg=Connection refused)." So, sorry if there's a thread about this already :S)

I'm trying to access my M8's storage through Windows Explorer via USB. Been using a OneX until now, which lets me do that just fine. But the M8 just gives me an MTP connection when I plug in the cable, which doesn't let me look at the data on it (the device shows up in Explorer, but when I open it, it just stays empty - no files or folders).

I've tried installing the latest USB drivers from this thread but the setup just won't start. It briefly pops up in task manager, but nothing happens. Turned off UAC, anti virus and what-have-you. When I try an older version of the drivers, Windows tells me they're already installed.

Then I just went with HTC Sync. Installed it, hooked up the phone, it starts fine. But I can only access the Home, Gallery and Music tabs. The Files tab is greyed out, which I think is curious.

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks! :)

[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] shaizil:
Hello,

I was wondering what would be the best stylus to wrtite down notes with. I am looking for some decent performance,as I will be writing Chinese characters with it so accuracy matters. Never had a tablet so I really have no experience with this...
[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] coresplinter:
I'm actually looking for a stylus too but since we don't have the ability to support active pens using hardware I'm also stuck in a pinch like you since I want to take notes using it. I'm planning on kickstarting

DotPen. I removed the link since I don't know if I'm allowed to post it here but do a quick search on kickstarter website or google and it should pop up (by Dot-Tec).

hopefully it turns out well. I considered getting the adonit ones but their support emailed me back saying they built it with apple products in mind and cannot tell me how well it would be on an android tablet :(
[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] shaizil:
Well, I came acroos a company called Dagi, they seem to make products very similar to Adonit, only they work with android as well.... see here

[YOUTUBE]BcIupysnpzM[/YOUTUBE]

and here

[YOUTUBE]NfYijQCnFSE[/YOUTUBE]

It seems like the Dagi is on par with its counterpart and even slightly better.

It makes way less noise when writing, which is important. The Adonit makes so much noise its ridiculous... it sounds like someone is doing the dishes. the Adonit Jot script also has this metal tip which makes too much noise when wrting,

Dagi is a bit cheaper as well.

Anyway, I would really rather have a soft tip stylus purely due to the noise factor and "feel". I don't want to feel like I am about to harm the screen.... maybe when a glass screen protector comes out.
[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] narvel:
I am also looking for a stylus for writing and drawing and I have taken a look at the Dagi and Adonit. While they both seem to work very well my fear for buying either is the multiple reviews from many different sites about them scratching the screen... I thought about getting a Zagg screen protector but then there are reviews stating that they do not work well with those and I don't want to risk reducing the screen quality using one.

Are these reviews unfounded or does anyone have any other suggestions?

Thank you,

Grev
[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] TonyBigs:
I'm having good results with an inexpensive Targus metal-barreled capacitive stylus. It has the big rubber tip but I've adjusted to it. I would like to try one of the 3mm capacitive stylus.
[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] retrofred:
I use an ikross which can be found on either ebay or Amazon for about $8.00 and come packs of two. Also check the Samsung c-pen which also works really well. The great thing about these tablets, is that they use the same screens as the galaxy s5, s4, s3 rather than led screens which are very temperamental on which capacitive stylus work.
[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] ladaqiyah:
i defo recommend an adonit jot pro - gunmetal!
[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] narvel:
Are you using that stylus on the "S"? I only ask as my next question is to find out if it is scratching the screen?
[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] Rhyno77:
Well, this sucks. One of my favorite features of the s5 is being able to write on the screen with a normal pencil, pen, whatever I have handy. Despite having the same "increase touch sensitivity" option in the tab s display settings it really doesn't work at all. Not sure what the technological difference is...

Samsung C Pen

I've been looking for an option with a fine tip myself and noticed that Samsung offered a C Pen for the Galaxy S3. Well, I decided to get it and try it on my Tab S 8.4. I can say that it works well on the screen straight up, meaning no screen protector. I added an Illumishield Blue Light screen protector on it and it works but not quite as well as without. There seems to bee a little bit of "sticking" instead of gliding smoothly across the screen. This is of course the screen protectors issue and not the pen. I will swap it out once there is a tempered glass version available.

I can use it as a pointer and tap to launch and do things. In S Note, it works very well. I'd even say it works better in S Note than it does in Evernote at this point.

I think this is going to work out well. After all, it does have just a 3mm tip so you can see what you're actually doing and it's not nearly as expensive as most styli that are available.

Wacom bamboo stylus solo 2

But still hope for new galaxy note 8.4 with an amoled screen.
[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] pibach:
I am using a simple capacitive stylus from Hama for EUR 4,99. Seems to be similar to the Bamboo solo. Works perfektly for taping. I had to set touch sensitivity to high in settings to use it reliably at quick swyping. Works like a charm then. Much better for my needs than inductive pens (have several other Tablets with those).
[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] pibach:
Disk stylus are fine for precise constructing and diagramming. For scribbling and most other regular work a simpler soft end stylus such as bamboo is better, imho.

Samsung Galaxy S3 Galaxy C-Pen Stylus Pen works perfectly

The Samsung Galaxy S3 Galaxy C-Pen Stylus Pen works perfectly with the 8.4" Tab S. Though the product specs say it works only on S3, I tried it with the Tab S and it just glided.

The pen looks premium with a metal body and a hard tip. The hard tip gives it a nice feel while writing as compared to the usual hollow rubber tips.

http://www.ebay.com/gds/Samsung-ETC-...5756258/g.html

I found it lying in the corner in a mobile accessory shop and the shopkeeper was happy to get rid of the old stock for $15. Look around and you may find one.

[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] GenghisKhan67:
No, I don't. If you want cheap, you can go out and buy a standard stylus with a huge nib that won't let you draw (or write) with any real precision. There are plenty of those available on the market.

If you want quality, you have to pay for it. That's what you did buying this tablet, right? ;)

---------- Post added at 02:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:25 PM ----------

Like another poster previously suggested, a cheaper (but still good) alternative would be Samsung's C-Pen. You can get one for about $25-$30 on eBay.

[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] pibach:
That is the Samsung C-Pen. It is a standard capacitive pen, jus a narrower tip. Here are some videos:

Works pretty well on the Galaxy S4: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2b98rwpOrs

But does not on Galaxy S3: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ajNk7IQNYEg

And it gets worse on other, non Samsung devices: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IbfMThVLvNI

Seemingly it highly depends on the touch screen resolution.
[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] pibach:
I have such a simple one for 4,- EUR (Hama). Works perfect with tab s. Even better than s-pen on my note or any inductive wacom I have used. Sometimes the simple solution is the best.
[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] GenghisKhan67:
Surely you are joking? A Hama stylus is the same size as a cheap dollar store stylus and is in no way comparable.

Picture here: https://www.hama.com/00106316/hama-soft-touch-stylus-for-apple-ipad-black
[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] RoyBM:
Lol that hama stylus is complete and utter junk, sorry.

I know this because i bought one from a dollar tree here and it is the exact same item most likely repackaged. The only thing its good for is tapping which is what my finger does just fine! Lol

I am currently going to get a Jot pro. Them active stylus are way overpriced imo.

http://www.adonit.net/jot/pro/

There are also much better ones out vs the nota as well with much finer tips then 3mm.
[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] pibach:
I have here:

Galaxy Note 1 with s-pen

Samsung Slate 11,6" core i5 tablet (XE700T1A) with Wacom digitizer

Thinkpad x61t with Wacom digitizer

versus my Tab S with simple Hama (it is very simple but not the one linked, could not find it online)

Hama works best - for what I am doing with a stylus.

Part of it might be the very sensitive and accurate touch sensing on the Tab S. Have a look on the videos above, pen performance seems to heavily depend on the device' touchscreen implementation.

I am not an artist and I also rarely use the stylus for writing, as I am much faster on a keyboard or swyping the text.

So I mainly use it for navigational purpose. Marking text. Text input via swyping (TouchPal). Some diagrams, powerpoint and technical drawings.

For all that, a simple capacitive stylus is just preferable, imho.

For art or writing I would give it a draw. Capacitive stylus has the thick endpoint, but still quite accurate, feels more natural with certain give and resistance. Also better feedback on pressure sensitivity. And better responsiveness. The Wacom digitizer allways positions the cursor a bit off and with slight lag. It can get noisy, which does not bother me so much, but if you like to draw or write very fast, it tends to jump on the glass surface.

Part of the rather limited results with the inductive stylus might be Windows related.

Can't comment on Bluetooth supported capacitive stylus or the disc stylus or the ones that actively interfere with the touch sensor (Cregle Ink and Adonit Jot Script).
[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] GeorgeP:
This one is pretty good.

It has a 3mm tip and works well with Tab S.
[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] pibach:
This Video (German) lists the pros and cons when writing with Bambo solo versus Adonit Jot Script (on iPad mini) - and the simple one came out as the winner.

Edit:

I also got a cheap 4mm diameter c-pen (no-name). Works well on the Tab S. It reacts on the slightest touch. And gives a bit more accuracy than the 6mm wide one.

Tested both on my Galaxy Note 1 for comparison. The smaller tip one has problems there to be recognized accurately. Needs certain amount of pressure. Also the glass surface on the Tab S is much smoother, giving a better sliding feel.
[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] rey_1178:
I received the Sammy C-pen and I like it. Getting used to writing without your hand making contact with the screen, quite difficult.
[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] mikeyek:
I find Adonit stylus (not sure of the plural) work really well with the tab s. Picked mine up for $20 at staples in Canada on sale.

I've just got the ringke slim in white, it has a cutout for the antenna (not on my model), and a free screen protector. The protector went on with a billion bubbles, it looks terrible, might fault I guess but now I have to order some more.

The case has a small slit on each corner to make it easier to put on, but that means it creaks a little when you use it. I'll try wireless charging in a few minutes, but first impressions are that its better than nothing, but not superb.
[G3 Accessories] mjb152:
further to this, the case creaks and doesn't fit brilliantly. The top part obscures the IR blaster unless you keep pushing it upwards.

But it does work with a qi charger, but thats about the only good thing about it.

I'm now considering other options
[G3 Accessories] ant78:
Ive had my case for over a week now and its never creaked once? The only good thing? I think that's a little harsh. Out of the 3 cases i bought this is by far the best but each to there own ;)

If i told it at the bottom the i can move the top right hand side with my thumb

, and if i hold the top and bottom (ie pick it up)the entire case flexes.

It just feels cheap, maybe i got a badly made one.

True.. I've got a back cover protector on my phone and the corner that has the antenna cutout doesn't fit properly. I feel as tho it wouldn't have creaked if there wasn't a cutout for the antenna.
