So I bought a cheap Vitria, unlocked it so that I can use in Germany for a couple weeks. I looked up the Huawei bands supposed to do GSM 850, 900, 1800, 1900 and it is an LTE phone. I looked up Aldi Talk's LTE band is supposed to be 1800. That means I'll have no problems using this phone with Aldi LTE right? What about 3g?

[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] raphi809:
I need help you guys or I'm really screwed :(. My phone had been working perfectly fine on a rom that I had been running for a month, when out of nowhere I had a random reboot, don't know what could have caused it because I was just checking my messages on the facebook app, but ever since then my phone would not get past the boot screen, to make matters worse I could not get the phone to go to recovery doing the whole power+vol up. Don't know what happened to twrp but it would only show up when I would turn off the phone and plug it to charge. When the charging battery pops up with the percentage if I tapped the screen and hit the power button it would flash the twrp main menu for a quick second and it would disapear. I could not interact with twrp at all. After many attempts of turning off and doing the power+vol up I got the bootloader to come up and since everything at this point had failed I picked the factory reset option from the bootloader. Now my phone will only load straight to the bootloader and nothing else. To make matters worse no fastboot commands are working aside from getvar and show devices. I can't erase cache,flash a recovery or relock the bootloader or go back to S-On which means I cant use the warranty. Tried the RUU and it say's it can't communicate with the phone. So basically i'm looking at a paper weight with a bootloader that won't take any commands and no system image. I've been looking everywhere for a solution and the closest thing I could find is flashing the expanded 1.57 firmware in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2754063 from my sdcard but the link is dead :(
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
Bootloader is power+vol

down

I think this is your main problem. Factory reset in bootloader on a modded phone corrupts the internal memory. Use Windows explorer or Device Manager to find the phone's internal memory and format it.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Sneakyghost:
Internal Memory cannot be mounted as USB on the M8 and hence it cannot be formatted from within Windows. Also, no TTY solution talks to the chip afaik. So this way is closed too.

The symptoms described sound like not only the System/Data/Recovery partitions got corrupted but also bootloader to some extend.

Something has happened while your phone was booted that corrupted large portions of your NAND. This does sound like a real hardware failure like a broken RAM to me. But then again RAM would not cause (corrupted) writes to bootloader. That partition only gets overwritten during a flash process. Not from within the phone so i would have no clue how that could get corrupted.

Are you dead sure the drivers on your PC are alright? Are you 101% sure the communication doesnt work because of the phone having an issue?

I would make totally sure drivers for fastboot are ok and then try to run (just any) RUU and try to rewrite the partitions. If you can't get that done, you will have to swallow that bitter pill and send it in. Well i would anyway. No idea what else you could try.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Vcek:
AFAIK, if you can boot into the bootloader, you can still fix it with a full RUU or .zip with all the partitions. (unless you have hardware damage), because if you have corrupt partitions your phone will have a black screen and can be flashed by directly communicating with Qualcomm chip with linux(tried it once on my HTC One X, didnt work as my partition table itself was corrupt)
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] twinnfamous:
Don't try to s-on if your s-off. Just get phone in fastboot bootloader mode and run ruu. I've done it several times so it will connect. Just go through the ruu setup and watch it work. If u can't find ruu for latest firmware then try a older one your s-off so u shouldn't have to do anything but plug the phone in fastboot bootloader mode and run ruu.

I never even relock the bootloader when I flash ruu. And I allways flash in fastboot bootloader mode.

I hope this helps. If not I will try to help u figure it out.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] harri2cool:
Where in Germany do you live, SneakyGhost? My M8 has been giving me nightmares, It is S-Off and today I changed the CID/MID to that of developer edition and installed the relevant Android Marshmallow firmware.zip and then ran the MM RUU from HTC Dev page. No matter what ROM I tried on SuperCID or even on this new MM software, many apps keep on crashing. Unfortunately this has stopped working, unfortunately that has stopped working. I have 3 other friends with M8, never has their phone seen an app crash. I have to restart the phone many times daily to get it to work for some time, while another app randomly crashes. Can you help me?

Thanks
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Sneakyghost:
Well if it's crashing a lot after flashing a complete RUU I'm sure the device is faulty. Maybe bad NAND or bad ram. Send it in to HTC. Don't bother setting it back S-ON cuz a.) They'll know anyway and b.) Going back S-ON is dangerous and locks you out from most repair methods you could try in case HTC won't service your device. Just saying because a lot of people seem to be thinking that going back S-ON is increasing their warranty claim chances.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] harri2cool:
My phone is out of warranty, will HTC entertain me? How much will thay charge for repairs? I think out of warranty repairs cost more than getting a used working phone.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Sneakyghost:
Super different from country to country. HTC Germany service is worse than it ever was. They contract Regenersis since January 2015 here, same company as in the UK.

You have to keep in mind that HTC's contractors do the checking and validating of your warranty and they go by very tight rules. You can argue and escalate as much as you want, they will charge you if your local HTC is in any way similar.

Globally, HTC has worsened their service approach a lot. I'm waiting for a service/warranty decision regarding an old M7 since half a year. A mate from our team waited six months too, but for HTC to find his M9 which they lost and refused to replace. He only just got it back, unrepaired despite full warranty eligibility.

To sum it up, if your device is older than six months, don't bother. Not worth the hassle and not worth the money. HTC won't do sh!t after six months usually. And the prices, like you guessed, are a nightmare too.

If your NAND turns out to be faulty like I assume, it'll be a mainboard replacement, which equals a new phone. And THAT can be had a lot cheaper on eBay or craigslist.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Uzephi:
Motherboard replacement is 200 USD give or take 25 on model (DNA/butterfly was $150 and a m7wlv motherboard was $175. I priced my AT&T m8 and it was $215) for the HTC service centers here in the US. I assume the EU ones are similar in price.

Before blaming hardware, have you changed mid/cid back to stock and ran an ruu to be sure it wasn't a bad flash or compatibility?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingsway8605:
That lag throughout the OS. Its there and if you deny it you are just in denial because you don't want to admit got paid 600 for something that lags. The OS is also a mess in terms of UI out of the box but there are hidden ways to fix it. Took me forever to figure out how to get rid of those smart action notifications, I had switched to nova launcher but they kept showing up in my notification bar. Speaking of the notification bar reconfigured to mostly be a settings bar, if you scroll to the right at the top of the bar and click edit, you can get your notification space back.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithleyson:
There is lag. It's like when you swipe a long list for example, the page "stick" and you have to wait for a millisecond before swiping again. Some apps take few seconds more to open too. I rooted yesterday and customized the **** out of my phone. Removed bloatware and unwanted features. Changed the font to Roboto. Still kinda feel it is a tad slower than my Z Ultra with GPe. Makes me wonder how this G3 is going to shine with stock Android on it.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adiliyo:
i've noticed scrolling lag in virtually every flagship i've owned. (m8, n5, note3, g2)

the only time i had zero scrolling lag was on my n5 when i was on the L preview.

outside of milliseconds of hesitation when scrolling, this phone flies.

if it doesn't you screwed it up or are a liar.

(see how ridiculous that kind of statement sounds?)
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithleyson:
I'm not trying to start a debate here or anything I'm just saying what I am experiencing with the phone. Naturally I am expecting more out of this phone than any other flagship phone I have because it is above and beyond better (or as the specs would have me believe).

Like for example swiping from the left in the xda app or the google plus app show the menu. On the G3 there is a noticeable delay before the menu shows. In my Z Ultra the menu just shows smoothly and follows my finger as I move it. It's not as smooth as on the G3.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Batfink33:
I returned the G3 after 12 days because of it. When I was trying to quickly multitask it was bad and the frame rate drops were annoying me also. I could accept it at first but eventually it drove me mad and this was after I rooted and debloated. I'm waiting on the more powerful 2k phones until I get one.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] munkiii:
How did you manage this?

I've added Roboto TTF font files to my "system/fonts" folder, but they don't appear in the "settings -> font type" menu.

Are they kept in a different folder to stock?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithleyson:
No, no. Don't manually copy them. Use ifont or font changer or romtoolbox. Whatever app you use just be careful as in my experience messing too much with font can cause bootloops. And without any custom recoveries available for the G3 as of this moment you'd be stuck. I personally used all of those three and I find ifont better as it replaces the whole set and all weights not just the default.

---------- Post added at 06:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:18 PM ----------

I still like the phone in general. And I can't exchange it with another brand or model as this is subsidized by a carrier. But I plan to buy an M8 in a few months and convert it to a GPe version.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Batfink33:
The M8 is the smoothest Android phone I've ever used, even on stock . The frame rate is consistent and it hardly ever lags. The only problem is, it's got a terrible camera.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frandroid-v95:
I must agree with the people who experience lag and delays throughout the system. My first impression also was that it wasn't blazing fast, at least not at fast as I expected... But I did not buy this phone for the lg system/ecosystem. The first thing I did: install nova launcher prime. And I must say I have a smoother experience in the launcher department thanks to it.. For the rest: apps run fast, multitasking runs fairly smooth (although sometimes my recent apps are empty for some reason - just go back to home and my recent apps reappear).

I am not going to say this is a beast of a phone but it is decent, especially when you take in count all those pixels it has to push.

If you don't like it, feel free to change. But I am sure there are a lot of persons who really like this phone, including me.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cnotes2019:
And the bezels are behemoth! Oh and too tall for my liking but yes it's smooth :) and boomsound!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Derekwolfee:
I don't understand what you people are doing to see lag on this phone.. Although I've seen many posts saying that the T-Mobile version is much snappier than the att version.. Maybe due to bloat? Idk I'm completely stock running the GEL launcher and it's so much smoother than my nexus 5 (on L) or gs5
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bdt1978:
I dont have any lag issues and am running nova anyway.

The phone has its issues but i think its worth persevering with because its decently priced, the screen is excellent and you can actually do things about the battery life and screen with little or no effort. The camera on this thing really is great.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Batfink33:
Yeah, seems all the flagships have lots of positives and negatives at the moment.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Enddo:
I'm with you. My only experience with Android devices is the Nexus 4 and Nexus 5, which is said to be the smoothest Android experience available. I just don't see this lag that people go on and on about. Then again, I'm a minimalist user so I got rid of the weather widget, I got rid of the animations(which is the same thing I do on the Nexus 4 and 5 anyway). I still use the LG stock launcher and I am using ART

Believe me, since I work from home I use my phone a lot. I dunno, maybe it's faulty units, maybe the device just works well for me because of my minimalistic settings. I have certainly disabled and uninstalled as much bloat as I could without needing root access.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingsway8605:
The camera on the m8 is beyond bad. What was htc thinking with 4mp, you can't zoom, expand, or crop at all.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingsway8605:
This phone reminds me of the Motorola Droid X2, great specs on paper but poor performance. Music would actually skip on the x2 if you tried to do something else while listening. That's similar to the scale of the aux bug on this phone.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adiliyo:
after debloating and switching launchers (nova) i have found no more than the occasional lag i've seen in every other flagship (i've had them all aside from the gs5)

as for the sidebar stutter, i've never had that happen either, the only consistent stutter i get is scrolling lag in facebook, which i've seen in every other phone aside from the nexus 5 while on the L preview.

sorry, i meant to quote the OP
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Mattvanwyk:
I run Pocket Music Player on my Mda compact, but the sound quality is much more mono-like then when i play the same track on my PC in winamp.

Is this due to the sound engine my mda compact uses?

I want to experience the same stereo sound on my mda as on my pc.

(i compared both interfaces (mda and pc) with the same track and with the same headphones)

Does anybody has an idea to make my sound more stereo, or install a new soundengine?

thnxz!
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] docnas:
There was a small file i downloaded off this forum that allowed you to customize the bass and treble levels and in my honest opinion it did wonders for the sound quality the file name was DSP_EN (do a search and u would be able to get it)

also one word of advise the headphones that come with the compact/jam are complete crap for hearing music
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Mattvanwyk:
Yes indeed that produces much more very low bass in the sounds makes it much warmer! thnxz

But still... the sound that my mda produces is much less stereo then my pc does, (with the same mp3 and headphones)

Can i adjust this?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] toomuchdogfur:
Out of curiosity, how do you manage to use the same headphones on your Magician and your PC? You have one of those proper 2.5mm to 3.5mm converters? (The ones with THREE rings on the 2.5mm plug and an inline microphone, that is)

Well anyway, the sound quality out of your Magician is unlikely to match the sound quality of your computer, as... well note how much bigger the computer is :). The loathesome 2.5mm plug used by, irritatingly, phones is already inferior to 3.5mm plugs due to their lack of size alone, as less size = less area of contact = less sound data flowing from your Magician to your ears. This means that you won't ever get a sound that is as full as one from your computer or a good mp3 player from your Magician. And also, considering that its a lot of everything packed into such a small device, the audio components aren't really a priority, so they're probably average quality at best.

Having said that, Magicians (apparently) have above-average sound quality for a mobile phone\Pocket PC that isnt dedicated to audio. You might want to try MortPlayer (google it) as it has a nice equaliser along with some sound processing effects that may help in reducing the 'mononess' of your sound.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Mattvanwyk:
I use indeed the 2,5 to 3,5 mm adapter.

I was wondering maybe that is the problem.

The 2,5 mm jack that comes originally with the phone has 3 rings. my adapter has only 2. So maybe the sound gets mono because the adapter plug only touches 1 ring instead of two (for stereo sound.)

i will try to fit my new earphones on the originally ones (cutting and welming)

we'll see :)

thnxz anyway
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] mariner_heart:
thats the worst logic i have ever come across.......there is nothing called "sound data"

what flows through earphone wires is just some varying voltage.there is no difference of sound quality just because it is 2.5 mm.

in ur computer sound card integrated circuits ..the jump wires and contacts are microns thin.....this means u hardly hear anything because all ur "sound data" is lost in thin connecting wires. wires and contacts are not like water pipes....less diameter means less flow!

buy a converter meant for magician and use 3.5mm without any loss of quality.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] eviltart2:

Well, I try nokia stereo set HS-47 to listening music with TCPMP player sound wonderful n answering button work well.

When receiving calls its clear sound that we listen, like we'll tallking near to the person. maybe getting more sensitive since its not made for magician but its an advantage for me to used it.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pokedroid:
I now that this issue has been covered on multiple occasions on this forum but i'm hoping my issue is a little unique and might be solvable outside of the normal methods. My M8 will read my sim card for about 5 minutes every couple of days or so. I.E. I let it sit, for a few days, off. then i put a nano sim inside turn it on and it will read for a minute, maybe 2, and then it dies out. no sim, emergency calls only. It can't even tell there's a sim in it. rebooting doesn't help, new sims have not helped (I work at at&t) and cutting the sim down a small bit, the tape trick, nothing works. I even flashed both at&t radio options that are listed in the development forum. no dice.

here's my question: could it be that after me flashing roms so frequently that my baseband or firmware is having some kind of malfunction and it's not a hardware failure? i'm wondering what other recourse I have in-house as opposed to sending it to HTC for repair or even worse, a refurbished replacement. I am s-off with unlocked bootloader and i'm worried there's some back door htc can use to tell i did these things to it and deny my warranty.

Any thoughts?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pokedroid:
Is anyone able to offer any assistance with this issue I'm having? I just read in another forum that HTC has an imei record of who chose to unlock their phone so I'm worried my warranty will not be deemed valid, but if I go through at&t I'll get a refurb :(
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Why would it make a difference how frequently you flash these? The NAND chip is designed to be flashed I believe

thousands

of times.

Its not back door. They base the bootloader unlock on your IMEI and make it web based for a reason. They now have a record that your phone was bootloader unlocked based on IMEI.

---------- Post added at 11:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:15 AM ----------

What's worse, a phone that doesn't work at all (due to not reading SIM), or a refurb that works?

I know its true that the refurbs vary in condition. But some folks have gotten ones that are virtually indistinguishable from new. Hopefully, you'll get one of the better ones. AT&T doesn't care if its bootloader unlocked and modded. So going through AT&T warranty service is your best bet.
