[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThoseWhoDo:
Hey, looking to get some help from the community. I had just purchased my new M8 and after a day of use, it has inadvertently gotten stuck in a bootloader loop.

I haven't unlocked, modified or rooted this phone in any way. it is, quite literally, 2 days old.

I could go to the store to have it replaced but given the original store distance I'd like to see if there something I can do first before I do that.

I have seen ways to fix up this, but most involve people who have tried (and failed) to unlock the bootloader, flash a rom, etc.

Attempting to use some of the menu options ends up with nothing, eg selecting Recovery will flash the three Android skateboarders for a second along with a short vibration. Then back to the bootloader.

I've removed my SIM card and tried, and the SD card and tried with no luck.

tl;dr I can turn it off and on, but always end up at the bootloader with no options.

Any help to restore this to stock would be greatly appreciated!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n1234d:
Is your power button stuck?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThoseWhoDo:
Nope, the button is fine.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
It's best not to do anything to make it worse.

Return it to where you bought it for replacement. It's hardware problem

The only thing you can try now is factory reset and see whether it boots
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThoseWhoDo:
Will do. Factory reset does the same "flash image + vibrate" behavior.

Thanks for the help!

[General Questions and Answers] eknee1417:
Current Situation:

Under contract with Verizon for another 9 months. Shattered my phone screen (Droid RAZR Maxx HD) and its $170 to fix. Still usable just terribly annoying. I want to move to AT&T with the new family share plan but being under contract my options kind of suck. I am trying to keep the total costs as close to $350 for moving but not sure if its worthwhile.

Options:

#1 - Leave the phone as is and ride out the 9 months | Cost $0

#2 - Fix the phone and ride out the 9 months | Cost $170

#3 - Cancel my contract for $200 and get a new phone, Nexus 5 for $350, and move to AT&T | Cost $550

#4 - Go to Tmobile and have them pay the ETF and buy a phone from them. 40 days until I can unlock the phone and then go to AT&T | Cost $unknown

If you would choose option #4 what phone do you get? I don't want to spend more then $350 if possible and it has to work with AT&T when I unlock it.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] archeon:
Hi everyone, love the site :-)

Due to fortunate (and cheap) circumstances I am now the owner of two XDA/Wallaby/Qtek 1010 devices.

After much playing, I got to wondering if it was possible to modify these devices so they communicate directly with each other rather than using the existing (vodafone NZ) GSM network. I assume it would at least require modification of the radio stack ROM, if it is even possible. I guess the existing functions provided by the radio stack to the OS would be restricted to specific network related operations.

Does anyone have any further information about this, or modification of the radio stack? Also what are the risks? I understand that the wallaby is pretty resilient to permanant breakage through dodgy flash writes etc.

BTW if this sort of modification is illegal due to frequency licencing etc, then I am asking about this in a purely hypothetical sense :-)
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Rudegar:
as far as i know it's supported by all of gsm pda's

when one setup a connection

one pick cellline rather then grps

ppl who have an isp which dont use grps

use it that way

of cause for 2 devices it would require software to work

where one acted server and the other client

like the good old seriel cable connection between 2 pc's
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] archeon:
whoops, I mean without any celluar network involvement at all, just device to device communication over the cell phone radio of the devices. Pretty strange idea I know, but would it be possible?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Rudegar:
if they used the 900/1800/1900 Frequiencys it would be illegal as it would interupt other devices in the area from being able to reach their gsm antennas
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] archeon:
hmm damn there goes that idea. Such potential for long range comms too!

I was intalling the rom from this thread " [ROM][AOSP][UNOFFICIAL] CarbonRom KitKat [ Mini/Mini Pro/Active/LWW ][25-05-2014]" Coconut version.

I did a clean wipe before install but getting stuck on the Carbon Boot screen. What am I doing wrong?

There is one person named GOOGLE who can answer all of ur questions

& also there is seperate Q&A thread for it

GOOGLE it
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] sud.vastav:
Did you flash kernel from the zip before flashing the ROM? And if yes then did you format /system, /data and /cache? Since you're coming from old partition table, formatting the above is necessary.

Edit: Please post your questions in Q&A section.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] zestken:
Resolved

Thanks it was the kernel indeed. I flashed my phone with the kernel and it worked. Sorry for the bother.

[Android General] toguchisan:
Do u know if we will have full 3G coverage in Spain?¿
[Android General] evilruck:
These are the frequencies supported by the phone:

2G Network : GSM GPRS EDGE 850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz

3G Network : UMTS HSDPA UMTS 800, 850, 2100 MHz

4G Network : LTE 800, 1500, 1800, 2100 Mhz

I did a little research and it seems Spanish providers use UMTS 900/2100 for 3G and 1800/2600 for 4G so in principle there shouldn't be a problem, i remark in principle because the frequenties used might vary from one provider to another.

Has anyone figured out how to root or at least temp root? I'm getting mine from Kyoex as well (bought it 2 days ago) and all I want to install is Xposed framework :)

And I believe there is only 3G for now (I'm not sure if it's just for people in the USA or everyone worldwide), i have an LG G2 so I'll be leaving 4G LTE for 3G :( But it doesn't matter I'll have the coolest phone ever!

What must be the number to unlock the device?

I have not yet entered the sim card, maybe this could be the reason?
[Android General] sev7en:
Dear toguchisan,

first of all congratulations! Mine is still in clearance... it's crazy but it is...

About your... can you grab a screen of that mode? Maybe it's just a lockscreen or something (I hope) like that as the lock should be for the SIM not the phone itself. Where did you buy it?
[Android General] djbuan:
I am so excited for you guys, I am also thinking of buying this phone. Can you post reviews and pics?
[Android General] toguchisan:
Hi, nothing to worry my friend, the vendor has put a number lock key for more security ^^

But now i have another more seriuos problem.

I can't connect my device to data 3G or GSM.

Above my full (tuenti mobile) coverage appears R (roaming) and i don't know how i can do it to change it.

I've gone to "mobile network settings", "Acces Point Names", configured all my operator (tuenti) connection and later i've clicked to "Data enable" and appears to me next message on notify panel (Data Roaming, You've lost data connectivity because you left your home network with data roaming turned off).

Any idea??

Any suggestions for a good screen protector, do I even need a screen protector for the back?

I received my phone today in the mail and I am SO happy with it! I just need to get data working and everything will be GREAT! :D

The only thing is I ended up ruining my premium screen protector, but the ones that came with the hybrid case seem to be doing a great job for now! :D

[Android General] xxxrichievxxx:

You won't be able to get updates unless you are using a Docomo SIM and in Japan, no other way of installing updates besides OTA
[Android General] sev7en:
Hi no, unfortunately to update it we need to work behind the Docomo network and as well a Docomo SIM card is required.

xxxrichievxxx, congratulations!!! It's awesome!
[Android General] djbuan:
Is that white thing with cord a dock by any chance? I miss dock accessories as I got spoiled from my previous SH-02E. Anyway is that screen protector any good? I am looking for a custom skin (carbon fiber), something that looks like this (picture below) which will be so cool so have at the back of the phone.

[IMG="CarbonFiber"]http://i.ytimg.com/vi/5j1yhu2xJGA/maxresdefault.jpg[/IMG]
[Android General] xxxrichievxxx:
Unfortunately the white cord is only a charger. It's a regular charger, the cord does not detach either so you can plug the cord into the PC.

The premium screen protector looked so nice!! It was crystal clear. Unfortunately, one of the corners would not stick creating this bubble in the corner. I ended up taking it off and putting a screen protector that came with the hybrid case and those are fine as well crystal clear :)
[Android General] xxxrichievxxx:
Thank you! :D how's your phone coming along? The only weird thing is the big ol icons. I hope we are able to root so I can turn down the dpi a bit and also install xposed

---------- Post added at 08:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:34 PM ----------

Not bad I'm actually quite pleased how fast my internet is going!
[Android General] toguchisan:
Ohhh

Please, how can i do it to shows H or H+ on notify panel because to me appears R (roaming). ;((
[Android General] evilruck:
So it's been a week since i received mine and all i can say is I FREAKING LOVE IT, but like every man-made thing it's far from perfect:

-It comes with a ridiculous amount of bloatware.

-A great phone with a hideous UI and unnecessarily low DPI, just like my "old" G2. And since there's still no development on this phone (at least for now) it's impossible to fix it.

-It's not possible to get OTA's without a docomo sim card.

And btw, i got these screen protectors from ebay http://www.ebay.nl/itm/3-Quality-LC...een_Protectors&var&hash=item3ce42caeda&_uhb=1 and they're pretty good, i'll just leave the link in case there's anyone interested :good::good:
[Android General] xxxrichievxxx:
Not too sure what I did to get the H to show but here is exactly what my steps were.

One thing that I did was get a new sim card from AT&T. I took in my LG G2 and got a new sim card. Used data for a bit talked on the phone and then threw in the sim card into my SH-04F after that I had signal no data, so I went and added the APN for AT&T LTE, selected the APN rebooted my phone and then the H appeared!

I post some screen shots to show you what I have and how I have it configured

The only weird thing that happens to me is when I reboot my phone, my signal goes in and out. It'll say "AT&T" and then "No service" with a little x over the signal bars. I have to make a call or two and then the signal sticks to AT&T. Does this happen to anyone else?
[Android General] evilruck:
Try manually choosing your network in "Network operators" option; I did it after configuring my APN and everything works fine (even 4G)
[Android General] xxxrichievxxx:
4G??? What cellphone company are you using?
[Android General] toguchisan:
evilruck,. i'm from spain too, could you say me which operator do you have? and if you are so kindly could you make a screenshot to the APN to see how can i do it?
[Android General] evilruck:
Vodafone NL

I'm living in the Netherlands atm so i'm not sure you can use my APN settings but i'll leave it here just in case :good:

GPS signal lost

Hi everybody.

Bought the phone. It's great but I have problem with GPS. It's permanently loosing sattilates signal. No any GPS assistant apps help. And I tried several Navigator software- the same outcome.

I found that probably EPO (sattilates location in the area) switchs off. But I did not found it in menu. Must be in hidden menu like below

Location -> Location Based Serviсe -> EPO

Any idea?
[Android General] xxxrichievxxx:
Not too sure what you're talking about EPO but my GPS is working fine and I haven't had any problems. Have you tried resetting the GPS and downloading the latest GPS CONFIG file? I use an app called GPS status & toolbox https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eclipsim.gpsstatus2

I use that app to reset my GPS and install the latest GPS config file.

One question I do have is, I'm pretty sure this phone comes with an IR sensor in the back near the camera, has anyone been able to get any remote control apps to work?
[Android General] lilfishi:
Hi evilruck

Could you (or anyone else) expand on these two points? Is the low DPI just a personal thing because the the whole QHD trend now?

Thank you
[Android General] tin7777:
Thank you. It helped.
[Android General] sev7en:
Unfortunately... I have to agree, it is a great phone but outside the Docomo network, really with heavy handicap. Anyway as good, it's a very safe and trustable device for all his internal blocks.
