Did you use the NoWipe version? Did you reflash the ROM after the firmware update? I suggest you do the FullWipe FUU and then rebuild your OS. You report 161 as being your SKU, so when flashing the 401 firmware, you might get some invalid WiFi configuration or even a slightly different radio, although i doubt that Vodafone UK is using their own radio. Anyway, if you can't solve your issue by doing a full wipe and rebuild, you will need to find some x.xx.161.x firmware to restore your phone to VFUK. Doubt that's necessary though.

Are you S-OFF at all? You will not be able to flash unsigned zips when S-ON... My thread and everything i provide here only works with S-OFF. Also, since error 99 sometimes hint at a lock issue too, you should try to relock your bootloader before using the sdcard method. I think that may be required. Haven't tried myself yet though. I prefer the fastboot method.

My device is still S-ON, i have tried fastboot method, but not work, if i don't want to S-OFF my device, any other method i can update my firmware?

firmware update

Hi all!

I have a question.

My phone is s-off and super CID. I have updated my firmware couple of months ago and my HBOOT is 3.18.0.0000 and radio 1.17.21331147A1.28G. And my question is, should I upgrade my firmware or live it be? I don't have any issues with my ViperOne 2.0.1 but still I would like to have newest firmware.

EDIT:

I have another two questions:

What is currently the newest firmware? Because there are a lot of files and I'm a bit confused..

And.. After flashing new firmware i think the red warning text will re appear. What is the proper way to remove it?

Thanks in advance :)
[One (M8) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
Mate, I posted about threefour pages ago how you get a hboot without red text. Plus, there are other guys doing that now.

Regarding your firmware: I doubt your ViperOneM8_2.0.1 runs good with the older firmware. You will most definitely suffer from extremely long boot times.

The latest firmware is 2.22.401.4 for international/WWE/GSM.

[One (M8) Android Development] old.splatterhand:
It was... :D

HTC is right now rolling out 2.22.401.5 :good:
[One (M8) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
Lol woot? K you link me there mate? Thanks.

Or no I'll find it later. Gotta sort out my household first.

mobile post
[One (M8) Android Development] old.splatterhand:
Devices with already 2.22.401.4 get 45 MB file.

Grab the file here.

But first do your work, not that your wife gets angry ;)
[One (M8) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
You da man! :D

Keepin me lazy! I'll through a FUU and ZIP Combo together real quick. You say your file is for updating the 401.4 variant, right? And nothing missing there?

[EDIT]

Nevermind seems the complete OTA

Thanks mate.

[EDIT 2]

This OTA is totally not gonna be a big deal firmware wise.

It contains:

Boot - new kernel

Hboot - same as on 2.22.401.4

RCDATA - same as on 2.22.401.4

Recovery - new recovery

Kernel and Recovery are nothing noteworthy for people running custom ROM's. Except if the kernel delivers some real improvement.

So far i have gotten info that this OTA fixes a severe Data issue in Croatia for just one carrier and it apparently improves GPS signal. Nothing more.

I'll do the FUU and ZIP anyway because of people wanting to run stock, but everyone else, note that you can just forget about it. Its not worth it!
[One (M8) Android Development] old.splatterhand:
Did not update til now. My wife is "blocking" the pc where my stock recovery is :D
[One (M8) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
2.22.401.5

Recent additions​

​

Both new files tested and working. Go flash.

NOTICE:

There will NOT be a NoWipe version as that would be 100% identical to the 2.22.401.4 version - no files in the NoWipe version were updated. People wanting to cross check if you don't believe me, download the OTA file and take a look.

If you want to update your firmware with a NoWipe solution, you can just go by the 2.22.401.4 packages and be sure you're up to date.

I might upload a NoWipe version with an edited android-info.txt so it shows the correct version in MainVer and Bootloader, but as long as there is no officially fixed TWRP available that leaves this OS info intact, there is no point anyway, since the current TWRP deletes this version info at first boot.
[One (M8) Android Development] ZEDEK:
Peace ALL...

Quick question...Im still in the process of trying to S-OFF (Firewater didn't work, but I was on Venom when I tried it and I heard you need to be on a Stock ROm for it to work, otherwise you have to use Sunshine). i have a T-mobile M8, and i'm on 1.54 (I had rooted my phone before the May 20th update) and Im on Hboot 3.16.

So here's my question: If I Flash a rooted ROM that has the OTA update (this one in particular: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2716843) and then backed up my current configuration of Venom 1.80 on TWRP-->would I also need to flash a Stock Recovery? And if I did that-->would what I had backed up in TWRP be lost?

(*BTW...I'm also going to try to S-OFF while I'm on this stock ROM)
[One (M8) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
You can just copy your TWRP backup to your PC or DropBox or even external sdcard. That'd allow you to later restore it. I doubt you need a stock recovery for Firewater. But as far as I know, you can head straight to sunshine, I doubt Firewater works on T-Mobile.

mobile post
[One (M8) Android Development] ZEDEK:
Thanks so much for getting back to me...

I heard that also about Firewater not working on Tmo M8's...but what I was asking was that 'if' i flashed that Stock ROM, when I restore my backup-->would the firmware stay updated or would it revert back when i go back to venom--> thats why i was wondering if i needed a Stock recovery, so the firmware bits would stick when I go back to Venom (I hope i'm not sounding confusing)
[One (M8) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
You are utterly confused :D

Flash your firmware, restore your backup. All will be fine. Firmware is 40 partitions, Rom is one plus kernel partition, recovery is another... Neither Rom nor recovery will overwrite the other partitions....

Now I confused you even more... :D

Take a look at the partition table, I have it linked in post 4 I think.

Sigh, my GPS still couldn't lock onto satellite after firmware update. Any idea how to fix? (PS: I am using ARHD 10.2)
[One (M8) Android Development] jfellon:
I would personally try to reflash the firmware and check again if that fails then I would start your phone completely over with a full wipe to see if that correct the problem and also on the full wipe do a fresh install of your ROM in and test your GPS again I use GPS status I get 14 to 16 satellite lock with the latest firmware and I'm running Viper
[One (M8) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
Windows Phone 8.1

It'd be a good idea to head over to Mr. Hofs thread (linked in post 3 or 4) and grab a stock backup and reset your phone to 100% stock, even though ARHD is pretty much stock.

I suspect it's gonna be the same then and firmware probably had nothing to do with it.

The new 2.22.401.5 OTA was supposed to better the GPS lock speed and it really does - I get a lock now in under 5 seconds without using a hack. This is realized in the ROM and kernel, not so much in firmware. So, see that you get a 401.5 system and firmware and check again.

Nothing I can do here. Sorry.

Yo you guys seen this rumour by chance? http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_one_m8_bootloader_rumored_to_support_wp_and_vice_versa-news-9346.php

I am getting all excited! :D Itchy itchyyyy... new thing to toy with... gonna open up a hboot again after a long while of skipping this to look inside if i can find traces of an upcoming W8 phone... doubt i am good enough for that sh!t though. Wish [MENTION=600525]Cotulla[/MENTION] was here on the M8.

[EDIT]

:( no traces of windows in the clear text strings in the current hboot... but probably, reading that Tweet, we can assume that the W8 hboot can be flashed to the M8.

Which opens up an interesting thought for me: i recently wondered how the GPE RUU repartitioned the M8 if one was converting an M8 to a GPE M8. Because on this phone, the GPE M8 has a smaller system partition. I couldn't find any hint on how the repartitioning worked, except the hboot. I thought that, since i know the hboot has partition address tables, there might not even be any repartitioning. It might be, the hboot just tells the other components where a partition starts and ends and if you flash for example a W8 bootloder, it might just tell the phone: hey, the system partition is now at address xyz! So, in my naive imagination, it could be as simple as flashing the W8 bootloader plus a W8 ROM. Yiha!.

Much much speculation. Bet the more intelligent people around here will get this figured out. Cotulla, beaups, fuses, jcase and the like...

The game has passed. It's very exciting.

From the beginning I did not like, but after going 10-20 levels of my experience of it has changed for the better.

Pleased with the minimum number of permits and the simplicity of the game (did not even have to read the manual).

Original game (not another remake of the game).

Compels them to think and there is an effect of surprise (the same level can be completed in 5 and 15 shots:)).

With it, you can pass the time pleasantly.

Now I'm pretty sure that battery drain happen because the phone can't found location by network service and WiFi, but gps is still working. Because it can't find location by network/WiFi so the battery drain start, only restart can fix it(at least that's my solution, after restart Google map can start to give location via network/wifi and when battery drain happened it colored grey)

So maybe some developer can fix this? Because I ever found this problem in my last phone, xperia u using custom ROM, and after several update this bug gone, so I'm sure that there is a way to fix this location service which sometimes not working

Okay my old thread was closed because 'it was against the rules to comparing ROM's (:confused:)'

So here another thread without 'the comparing'

Which kernel and rom are you using and how is your battery life?:victory:
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] kachan64:
It's depends. If a rom includes a lot of functionality and runs in the background then will drain your battery for sure. Some rom has power saving mode and stop app using the internet when no needs etc
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] SamC95:
Yes, i understand that but that wasn't the question lol
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] s3axel:
It obviously depends very much on how you use your phone :)

For me with light to average usage and Whatsapp, Threema and Calendar/email sync I usually get around 1%/hour with any of the AOSP ROMs I tried, always using Boeffla kernel with Zzzmove governor/battery extreme setting and a battery saver application switching off my mobile network when on WIFI.

With stock based ROMs it may be a slight tad lower, but for me it was too little to make a real difference....

Just my 2 cents ;)

PS The 1% figure is calculated over 24-48 hours between charging, thus including the nights ;)

Most important and often not taken into account is reception strength.

I measured that when Im on work and phone is iddle battery is eaten about 4% per hour.

At home its less than 2 %. In both cases I have no wifi connection, but wifi is scanning, gsm data is working, but locked at UMTS (3G, not HSxPA) and connected to 3 google accounts and 1 work email.

I saw strange behavior with waking up CPU when iddle.

When connected through usb to computer (linux station) I was watching changes when phone wasnt use at all

watch -n 5 --differences=permament adb shell cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/stats/time_in_state

And at home CPU was at lowest possible frequency, at work CPU is jumping, even to highest, but mostly stays bellow 600MHz

Differences are in localisation of antennas. At work I have weak signal, but also I am within range a few antennas, and software in galaxy sometimes is changing, when able to find better reception.

This means of course a lot of wakeup's and battery is eaten much faster.

Returning to the thread I see no point in comparison between different people cause even one device can survive twice longer depends on location.

The longest time in idle without any data connection enabled is 4 days on a yacht, so receptcion was weak, but device wasnt use at all (its about 1% battery per hour).

Hello xda forum,

i own the before mentioned phone and recenty i tried to flash some custom roms on it but every time it wouldnt boot into system.

firstly i installed CWM with odin and rooted the phone, everything worked fine.

but after flashing any custom rom i tried (axxion, unofficial cm11, sazy and something else i think) it stops at samsung galaxy s2+ black and white screen for hours. or sometimes loops the same screen with few seconds of blank screen in between.

i flashed the stock back with odin and it worked fine, repeated cwm flashing and rooting, flashed custom rom. repeated that at least 4-5 times with same results.

my goal is to flash resurrection remix but it said

"Make sure you are either on any KitKat ROM (CM11, SlimKat, etc) or on 4.2.2 TW based ROM and NOT on 4.1.2 TW based ROM"

so i tried to flash cm11 before.

also tried the solution i found on forums (wiping dalvik cache and wiping cache numerous times, fixing permissions and all that with no luck)

i can acess CWM and download mode without problem but cant boot into system, only if i load a backup or flash a stock.

thanks for reply,

my stock is 4.1.2. therefore i need to update to 4.2.2 first?

can you send me a link or something as a guide or ill search for it.

which basically means i need to flash 4.2.2. then cm11 and then resurrection?

or i am doomed to use stock?

Yes, u need flash 4.2.2 first and then custom rom. Custom roms don't work with 4.1.2 bootloader. U can find good guides if u search "how to flash Stock rom"

to make everything clear for me:

so i just put the dld file in pda in odin, connect in download mode, uncheck weird things and press start to begin flashing?

anything else i need to know?

and after i flash that firmware, i need to install cwm and root and than i can flash the remix, right?

thanks for helping me
