[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samton99:
Hello,

About 4 days ago I started having an issue where my HTC One M7, would just shut down randomly when not plugged in. I had installed ViperOne 6.2.1 and everything was working fine. I then tried to remove apps thinking this was the issue. There was no pattern to it. It just shuts down. I have to hold down the power button until the phone starts up. It would shut down at all different times and tasks that I might be doing. I thought maybe it was the battery, so I searched online and did the battery reset, maybe it was a calibration issue. What I did notice is every time the phone would fully charged but when it would shut down, I would then plug in the phone and start it up it would give a battery life of say 78%, or 48%, again no pattern. So I decided to reinstall the ROM. Tried that and still the same thing even with no apps installed, the phone would just shut down. The only way to get it on was to plug it in. THen I tried other ROMS, such as CM11 ROM, LiquidSmooth, i also tried Android HD Revoluton this one wont get past the HTC quietly brilliant screen, thats another issue. I did reinstalls while just wiping of data. Then I finally decided to format the whole and reinstall the CM11 mod. Still the same issue. The phone works fine as lonas its plugged in, this only happens when it is not plugged in.

I am assuming that the battery needs to be replaced. Since everything works fine while charged. I would like to ask others if this is the logical next step, or are there other steps that I could try.

Thanks in advance

What recovery version # are you using?

probably an hardware defect, you should try to go back to stock and see if it helps
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samton99:
I am using the following

TWRP 2.7.1.1

CM 11

I didn't mention but the phone is not 2 years old. I think its past the warranty.

I don't know hot get it back to stock. Haven't tried that yet! I will have to research and try that.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
2.7.1.1 is required to flash CM11 correctly but for ARHD you must use 2.6.3.3, You might want to try before returning to stock. If you want to return to stock, follow nkk71's guide linked in my signature.

The fact that your phone is not rebooting while plugged in makes me believe its an hardware issue :(
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Necron80:
Well after searching, reading, and trying a few different guides on how to fix the issue. I have spent the last 5 hours pulling my hair out and really didn't get anywhere.

I have a HTC M8 from sprint. I used the All-In-One to root and flash the custom recovery ( Clockwork Mod Sprint)

I left s-on and just wanted to try the stock rom out for a few days. After about a week it started and never ending reboot. It would boot up and load the OS like normal and after about 2 to 5 min it would reboot again. Tried clearing the cache and that resolved the issue for about a day. It then started same thing again. At this point i decided to try ardh. After reading thru arhd post and downloading I made a bone headed mistake of NOT running a backup. I used the "Clean to install a new rom" option and then went to install the rom from the external sd card. it got to about 70% and failed out. I re download and tried again and got the same results. I then tried Viper one, Redbulled, and a few others. No matter what rom i tried it would fail.

Now at this point I realized what a dumb move it was to not run a backup. Started searching here and the great interwebz for how to fix this.

I tried to sideload the roms and they tanked.

Does anyone have a few pointers or ideas on how to fix this.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pball52998:
I would say, see if you can find a rooted stock ROM. Place it in your backups folder. Try to restore it. I've been there, did that and it worked for me on a previous HTC.

Don't sideload. They usually fail. Just push. Load twrp. Don't do anything. adb push Rom.zip /sdcard/

Hi all

I want to install windows phone to my xperia p anyone know how to do it and whats the best version should i install windows phone 8.1or windows phone 7
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Hamza Murad:
You can't. At least as far as I know. You need a custom bootloader for that and we don't even know the location of the test point in xperia P.

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilinimud:
So here is my problem. I was rooted on JB,and getting propmts to update to KK. After some research I found out that is it now rootable/unlockable, so I downloaded the .183 update and used RSD Lite to get on the update. That went well. Used towelroot and motoapocalypse to get rooted and unlocked. Also went well. Used Flashify to install TWRP. Well again. Heres where things fell apart. I booted into recovery to backup my stock ROM. After I did that I moved the backup to my SD card like an idiot not knowing it couldn't be restored from there. So I downloaded Validus 5.2 and Gapps. When I flashed them I was stuck in a boot loop on start up. Power down and tried again, still looping. Fastbooted to Recovery to restore my backup, but it was not there cuz it was only reading from internal storage (oops). So I was screwed. Then I read that CM had updated the modem or something and that you had to update stuff to use it. Still not sure about all that, but anyway. I thought maybe that was the problem, so I downloaded an older version of CarbonROM from June that was before the CM changes thinking I would be good now, but when I flashed it the same thing happened. Boot loop. So I went back into fastboot and flashed the RSD Lite stuff again. Rooted with towelroot. Unlocked with motoapocalypse. Verified status code 3 in fastboot. Verified root with Root Checker. Installed Flashify, but I haven't installed a recovery yet. Was TWRP my problem? Why am I boot looping on custom ROMs? Can someone help me out, or point out something Ive missed here?
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iBolski:
You have to ensure the ROM you are using is built for the KK kernel. Not all ROMs work with the KK kernel.

Here is a list of ROMs that work with KK:

Anything else will result in what you are experiencing - bootloops.

Okay I think you have to purChase some dongle that supports Miracast. But wait. I heard that ChromeCast will support real-time screen mirroring in near future,

and I am sure they will support Xperia Z2 very soon.
[General Marketing & SEO] SyntheticStudios:
Hey guys I thought I'd make a post of my journey to making my app popular. I am new to android development and have been researching endlessly for more tips and tricks. So, I thought I'd document my journey and the steps I am taking to create a popular game. From my marketing strategies to my statistics. This way others can see what works and what doesn't.​

Basic Info:

App Name: Boulder Bash

App Category: Arcade / Action

App Link: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.SyntheticStudios.BoulderBash

App Description:

Boulder Bash is a fun action packed game. Boulder Bash is an easy to play game with exciting game play, smash your way to victory by crushing all the boulders that fall. Rack up gold from destroying boulders and purchase upgrades, miners, and cool Visual Effects!! And what exactly is the point? Well, to get filthy stinking rich... why else would you play a game? Rack up as much gold as you possibly can and show off to your friends, or hit a new personal goal. Heck, how much gold can you get?

Feel free to check out the game, rate it, download it. Heck any feedback would be great. I'm still creating new content so just tell me what you think the game needs.

Journey So far:

Day 1: I released the game and throughout the day have been making small changes and bug fixes that I find.

For my marketing strategy I was a little noobish and didn't market before my release. My first goal was to buy some initial advertising

in order to increase my downloads and get the ball rolling. Through my ad campaign I spent 5$ for the first day, keep in mind my budget is insanely low. At the end of the day the statistics from the ad campaign showed around 43 installs.

Stats: Total Downloads so far : 43, Documented Downloads (Google Dev. Console): 0, Ratings: 3 - 5 stars [Not ranked]

Day 2: The google developer console is still behind and still shows 3 5 star reviews but 0 downloads. I need to get much more advertising going on. I spent about 10$ and supposedly got around 100 downloads worldwide. I also decided to start trying to get press for my game. I went to 25 sites that review android apps and games and submitted my app for a free review. So far no responses. At the end of the day I can see 0 downloads in the dev console, but 5 - 5 star reviews.

Stats:Total Downloads so far : 143, Documented Downloads (Google Dev. Console): 0, Ratings: 5 - 5 stars [Not ranked]

Day 3: The google developer console finally updated, it shows my installs at 35/130 which means my advertising is pretty shabby. I have gotten 130 documented downloads and 35 current installs. My reviews are at 11 5- star ratings, which is great! I continued my ad campaign and spent another 10$ which net me around 80 installs worldwide. I stumbled upon some cool android forums and decided to post my game on some of them to help gain exposure. So far my goal to reach top new free has not been reached. I am still trying to gain enough exposure to gain organic downloads.

Stats:Total Downloads so far : 223, Documented Downloads (Google Dev. Console): 35/130, Ratings: 11 - 5 stars [Not ranked]
[General Marketing & SEO] Endlessgamestudio.com:
oh man, dont spend much money like this to advertise your app!
[General Marketing & SEO] WilmerStudios:
I wish you luck - we launched a month ago

Hello SyntheticStudios,

We recently just did the same journey as you hoping to reach that elusive "Top New Free" monicker, to no avail... We actually were spending $40 a day on advertising between myself and my partner, which led us to about 120ish downloads a day (brutal)... We still don't have a magic formula but was able to secure a review from http://www.playandroid.com/... Which they will do for free just given you add their review link to your storefront on google play. Hitting the forums and paying it forward is also a good way to get some exposure, I just always use the signature below. Well it has been a little over a month now for us and we are at 4000 downloads, which is too bad because we have a fairly decent little game.

In the end we didn't achieve the top new free, but that is okay, just damn fun building games! I do wish you luck and I'll definitely check out your game and give you a review! =)
[General Marketing & SEO] stormzm:
Do you know how much it will cost to reach the top new free?
[General Marketing & SEO] simplychoose:
Your game download is not bad. I spent $200 before on appbrain about max $35 per day. Total installed after campaign ended around 300+ new install only because I target more on US market. For me, I think it is not bad at all for new app because I saw the ranking for keywords jump from 400 to current 82. Ranking in some countries also better.

In the end, my app didn't get into Top Free section for the category. I am still wondering how to get into this section.
[General Marketing & SEO] LK Interactive Services:
My experience is that to be in the top free in the Spanish market has to have around 2000 downloads/day for seven straight days, really hard...

hi i'm murdok

is possible to change default directory of themes?

(excuse me for my terrible english):confused:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] zoki:
just put you're themes at the root of the storage card
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] alexanderi:
i put all the .tsk file in the root of \Storage Card. And everything is ok.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] murdok:
the problem is just this, i would want put the themes files in a folder for having more order in memory card root

:cool:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Nicnatros:
Wouldn't it make sense to put themes in your Windows directory? My thinking is that the internal memory is faster and doesn't go to sleep when the unit is in standby. I haven't done any testing, but I have a feeling that there may be a small increase in loading speed when coming out of standby/etc. Anyone have a stopwatch that isn't on their PPC?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] GapBoyT:
I just put the TSK file where ever I want then open the file from there. I am not sure exactly what happens, but from that time forward the theme shows up in the theme listing.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Mesias:

Does any one can find which bands does this one support and where can I find it?

The reason that im asking that is that in the video above you can see that the device come with the Google apps pre installed.
[HTC One E8] aimsakuraew:
you can find it in Taiwan...it must have google.

The china mainland version do not have google preinstalled, it is because the argument between china government and google. but taiwan is not affected.

[HTC One E8] luvbirds22:
Hello guys!

I am new to android world.I just bought this E8 from China and its the China Unicom version of E8 known as M8SW.There are many chinese apps on the phone and also it doesnt let me take cloud backup of the device as it asks for some chinese weibo account to sign in or create new account.The same phone has been launched in India and some other countries with the model code M8SD.

Sorry for my lack of knowledge,I am just curious can i flash indian or any other country rom like singapore on it which supports english as main default language.I dont wanna install custom rom on my phone and somehow wanna stay with stock rom but from some other country.

Also if i flash some other country rom on it would it be a problem with frquencies my current rom supports and frequencies what indian rom supports.i mean i dont want any hardware issue after i flash indian rom on to my e8.

After i flash indian rom would the ota updates happen or no.

Finally where I can get Indian stock rom for e8.

Thanks in advance.

Hello. These are my i9500's details:

Android version: 4.2.2

Baseband version: I9500JKUAMD9

Kernel version: 3.4.5

Build number: I9500XXUAMDE

It is rooted and on the same stock rom I got when I purchased the phone, and according to these details:

ODIN MODE

PRODUCT NAME: GT-I9500

CURRENT BINARY: Custom

SYSTEM STATUS: Custom

I'm quite convinced I don't have Knox.

I wanted to ask the following questions:

Is upgrading to 4.4.2 worth it? Are there any downsides?

Is upgrading to a stock 4.4.2 rom WITH root and WITHOUT Knox possible?

I'm guessing I'll need I9500XXUFNC2, right?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MAX 404:
Hi,

1 yes is worth it , downsides , new bootloader with knox security ( you also have custom stock roms 100% stock experience like Omega Rom , all the 4.4.2 features , all samsung features also)

2 no

3 that would be an option , yes

i wish somebody can help me, regards
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peter-k:
Sorry I can't help you.

I just want to say, blocking mobile phones from being used internationally should absolutely be made illegal under international laws. Unless of course we buy it bound to a contract.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] smardu:
i think you need to declare the phone or something like that in UAE. i had the same issue and solved it by buying a phone from Dubai.

i dont remember if roaming is also restricted for 30 days, if yes you need to reach the border and register to a foreign network, after that register again in Dubai and the counter is being reseted.
[One (M8) Accessories] Chris_c81:
I know of four.

- MIME Feather

http://mimeusa.com/product/htc-one-m8-feather-glass-screen-protector/

- JiiZii

http://www.ilongsight.net/jiizii-gl...s-screen-protector-for-htc-one-m8-p-2061.html

- Glass M

http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=251564245465&alt=web

- Unnamed eBay

http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=331242293372&alt=web

Personally I've only tested the MIME and it was disappointing. Has known issues reported by many users. But it does work with Dot View.

I haven't tried the others. The unnamed eBay one quotes a hardness rating of 10H which is difficult to believe given thicker glass protectors max out at 9H.

Anyone tried any or know of any others?

Edit: I might give the Glass M a try. Found its official site:

http://glass4m.com/collections/glass-protector/products/glass-m-htc

It's made from Corning Gorilla Glass.
[One (M8) Accessories] X1XNobleX1X:
Spigen

Do you know if the 0.23mm Spigen Glas.tR will work with the dot case?-
[One (M8) Accessories] Chris_c81:
I couldn't say for sure. I only know that for certain, the 0.15mm ones work perfectly with Dot View case.
[One (M8) Accessories] X1XNobleX1X:
Purchased the Glass-M

I decided to purchase the Glass-M aswell, it's a lot cheaper than the Spigen.

Hopefully it lives up to the quality.
[One (M8) Accessories] lukes91:
I just ordered Glass-M screen protector (0.15mm because i've got the dot view case) and i think it should arrive next week or so... i'll post my impressions here as soon as i get it :good:
[One (M8) Accessories] eep02b:
Not .15mm, but Amazon has the Hero glass .18mm for 14.99....

[One (M8) Accessories] frankcck:
Any review? Appreciate =b
[One (M8) Accessories] suparnemo:
From what I can find, and the reviews on amazon. This glass is actually like double the thickness they advertise. It's like .35mm not .18.
[One (M8) Accessories] eep02b:
I actually have the linked screen protector, and while I don't have anything to measure the actual thickness of the protector, I know for a fact that it's thinner than the Nillkin tempered glass protector. I had that one on my phone prior to the Hero glass, and installed it on my wife's M8. It's so much more noticeably thinner, my wife made me but one for her after using my phone the other day. It's definitely closer to .18 than it is to .35
[One (M8) Accessories] T3hBraveBoss:
Spigen's GLAS.tr does not play well with the Dot View case. Which lead myself to return the Dot View for the GLAS
[One (M8) Accessories] X1XNobleX1X:
Why?

Lucky I didn't purchase the Glass.tR then. What is wrong with the glass?
[One (M8) Accessories] T3hBraveBoss:
Too thick, but I really like it.
[One (M8) Accessories] k4p741nkrunch:
I have the MIME Feather Glass and it works perfectly with my Dot View. At first the flap didn't close 100% but I've had them for about a month now and the cover is now flush with the phone when it closes.

I'm not too familiar with many of the issues people have reported with the MIME Feather, but I can say that I wish it had rounded edges. I think having squared off edges causes dirt and debris to line up along them, although I haven't heard if the rounded edges don't have that problem.

Not like it's going to make or break anybody's decision, but the MIME Feather does have fantastic packaging and installs like a charm. Not a single air bubble or spec of dirt got under my screen and that's the first time in my entire history of owning screen protectors.
[One (M8) Accessories] Chris_c81:
Anyone received the GLASS-M yet? Mine is in transit from Hong Kong.

With regards to MIME, my biggest issue is the price they charge versus the quality of the product. With plastic conventional protectors things were different. There was a noticeable difference between the poor and the best examples from companies. With these tempered glass ones though, you can buy an average priced one (sometimes even a cheaply priced one) and you'll still have a decent product. The Nillkin for example is priced in the middle, yet its quality is superb and in my opinion bests the MIME equivalent (Ghost) offering.

I know. I've had both.
[One (M8) Accessories] X1XNobleX1X:
This week.

Mine should be coming this week.

Hopefully it works out well.
[One (M8) Accessories] Chris_c81:
Received the GLASS-M today. Came packaged really well (kudos to the seller). The actual product packaging is neat and tidy. Has two compartments within. One housed the protector, the other side the cleaning kit. Inside you get:

- Screen protector

- Alcohol wipe

- Cleaning cloth

- Bubble remover (not sure why, no need)

- Static cling dirt remover

The protector itself applied easily. Simply lined up the top edge and gently eased the bottom end down. Went in straight first time.

Looks and feels as good as you'd expect from a glass protector. Finger slides over it as if it wasn't there. Does not seem to have any issues with fingerprints, very resistant.

If I had to pick some negative points I'd have to go with:

- could be a fraction (and I mean fraction) longer

- doesn't have rounded edges

The first though, is just me being particularly finicky. It well covers the screen despite.

The second affects all 0.15mm protectors I've found to date. I guess it's pretty hard to round off an edge so thin! So I can live with that.

Otherwise though, I have nothing but good things to say about it. The only other 0.15mm protector I've had is the Mime Feather. I'd choose the GLASS-M over the Mime without question. The Mime felt flimsy, really flimsy and scratched far too easily. This one feels more sturdy, yet still as thin. Yet to see if it's better at resisting scratches however, I don't doubt it will do a better job. The Mime was terrible for that.

Works nicely with Dot View by the way.

Highly recommended.
