[AT&T HTC One (M7)] menachemt:
I'm trying to return my HTC One back to being unrooted because I wanna update it and almost everywhere I read, you need to unroot to get over the air updates. So I got S-Off and I relocked my bootloader, but whenever I try running the RUU, it always fails. I tried flashing it and I tried running the exe file. Why does it keep failing? Also, is it true you can't get OTA updates while being rooted? The RUU I use is for Cingular (which from my understanding is the one AT&T uses) and I have Super CID. Lastly, if anyone knows an easier way to return my phone to being completely stock and unrooted that would be great. Thanks in advance!
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] sharksfan7:
Which RUU did you use? Apparently the last official one was JB 4.3 w/ Sense 5.0, ver. 3.17.502.3. The one for KK4.4.2 w/ Sense 5.0, ver. 4.18.502.7 was apparently not actually released by ATT and many people were having problems with it.

So if you tried with the KK4.4.2 RUU, download the JB4.3 RUU from http://www.htc1guru.com/. Since you're S-OFF, you can use either the .exe or the decrypted .zip. I used the decrypted .zip before and it worked fine. Once you get that flashed you can then take the OTAs to update to KK4.4.2 w/ Sense 6. You'll need to be on the AT&T network to get those OTA. Otherwise you'll need to manually flash the updates, as clsA states in his post that I quoted above.

As for not getting OTAs while being rooted....

It's not so much that being rooted prevents getting OTAs. It's the process of getting to root that modifies or deletes system files that need to be intact for the OTA to work. OTA need to be installed through stock recovery. If you're rooted, it's most likely that you have a custom recovery. Also, unlocking the bootloader deletes some files the OTA checks for. If those files not there, the OTA will not install.

Flashing an RUU is the easiest way to get completely stock. It resets the phone to an out-of-the-box state. Whereas a factory reset done from bootloader or recovery basically just wipes the data partition, which will remove any apps you installed and user data. But any modifications to the system partition that are done remain. You don't get back the files that are deleted when you unlocked the bootloader.

Also, since you are S-OFF, there's no need to relock your bootloader to run an RUU. That's only required if you're S-ON. And once you get S-OFF, there is no reason to go back to S-ON.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] menachemt:
Since I just want to get the new OTA update, do you recommend I just flash the update as opposed to going back to stock recovery because I don't mind having a rooted phone? Also, my phones camera suddenly became blurry, is it possible that the rooting had something to do with it? If it did, would flashing the OTA update fix it or would I need to go back to stock recovery or would neither fix it? Sorry for so many questions.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] sharksfan7:
First off, what version is currently on your phone? Depending on where you're currently at you may need to flash more than one update in order to get it to the latest version. And no matter what, you'll need to flash stock recovery in order for the updates to flash. OTA updates, whether taken OTA or flashed manually, require stock recovery, as I mentioned before. Also, again as I mentioned before, the process of rooting your phone (more specifically, the process of unlocking your bootloader) most likely deleted files from your system partition that need to be in place in order for the OTA updates to install. If they are not there, the update will fail. So to answer your question...No, I don't recommend "just flash the update as opposed to going back to stock recovery". It won't work.

Since you didn't answer my question and state which RUU you tried, I don't know if you tried a bad 4.4.2 RUU or if there are other issues with your device and/or computer that's preventing any RUU from installing. If you just don't want to flash the RUU, then you can try flashing the update in the phone's current state and when it fails, you can analyze the error report, try to track down stock versions of the files you're missing and restore them if you find them, then try the update again, hoping you found everything. That's a lot more of a hassle than just flashing the RUU, flashing the updates, rooting, and setting up your phone.

Another option is to just flash a custom ROM. Most of them will bring the phone up to the latest version. Some will even take it higher than what is officially available from AT&T.

As for your camera problem, can't see how just rooting would cause that, but maybe it did. Without knowing the cause of the issue, I can't say if just flashing the OTA would fix it. If it's a software issue, then possibly it would. If it's a hardware issue, then probably not. Focus on updating the phone and worry about the camera issue if it still persists once updated.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] menachemt:
Sorry, I forgot about your question. First of all, I got it working using RUU Zip M7 UL JB43 SENSE50 MR Cingular US 3.17.502.3-decrypted. The one that didn't work for me is RUU Zip M7 UL JB 50 Cingular - 1.26.502.12. Second, I am running 4.4.2. Thats for anyone who comes across this and was wondering. Thanks for your help sharksfan7. Also, in case you were wondering, my camera is still blurry, but I'll start a different thread for that.

I'm unlocked & in the UK,

My firmware is below, is this the latest as I'm sure I'm seeing posts with a different build number. Cheers guys ?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Devzz:
The latest is the .314 firmware now. You should receive an OTA or should be able to install using the PC companion software from Sony. For the OTA, it's a staged rollout so you'll receive it when you do! Hope this helps :D
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gibbo82:
When was .314 released as I only got a notification last week to update to the firmware i currently have now, confused ?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Devzz:
It was released a few weeks ago (2-3 weeks I think?) and depending on where you are, the rollout is still going on so give it time. Some people have had luck plugging their phones into their laptops and using the Sony software to check for an update and they haven't received an OTA so maybe try that.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gibbo82:
Yea just tried, but saying I have the latest software!.

u hav any idea when kitkat 4.4.4 will come to the z2? I see Sony have enabled move to sd card in that version ?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hush66:
Sony has not announced when 4.4.4 will come to the Z2.

And the function to move to SD is only for the 4.4.4 firmware of T3. It doesn't mean that all Xperia phones will get this function. The Z1 already has 4.4.4 but no move to SD function.

so im thinking about changing from verizon to tmobile because i really want unlimited data back (nfl sunday ticket). was just wanting some opinions from anyone else that made this switch in the central ohio area or has been with tmobile in the central ohio area.. how's the coverage? you hear good and bad, sounds like it's on the up in the recent years and future but theres nothing like the actual customers opinions.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] quantumtransfer:
verizon is the only carrier that has the nfl ticket viewable on the smart devices like phones and tabs.. so even if you did change for tmo. youd still lose the other option. or mix and match verizon tab with tmo smartphone with tethering unlocked throught roooting. really up to you
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] AUSTIN3:16:
The NFL Sunday ticket app from DirecTV is available and works great on T-Mobile.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] ghostlike2014:
Also remember after a certain amount of data usage T-Mobile does begin to slow down data speeds to 2G
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Powell730:
I think you're thinking of NFL mobile. I have DirecTV and NFL Sunday ticket like the person below.

Even with the unlimited 4g plan? I thought speeds were only throttled when you had, ie: 1gb of 4g data, then it would be unlimited after that but on the slower network.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] rkingsparx81:
I'm on T-Mobile and they do not slow down data if your on the $80 unlimited plan

I'm pretty sure I've seen builds of the latest CM11S that you can download and flash, but I'm not sure if they support custom recoveries. Also, I think in the Toolkit for the OnePlus One there is an option to flash CM11S. I do not know how it will affect your device if you do it that way, but maybe consider that as an option.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bp328i:
Funny thing about this is I flashed it last night in TWRP and it would fail everytime I wiped first.

I saw someone else with the same issue and they dirty flashed it and it worked. I ended up trying to dirty flash it over (Not sure which ROM, I've tried them all) and it flashed fine. As soon as it booted I had some FC so I went back into TWRP and wiped and all has been fine.

[T-Mobile LG G3] zone23:
I certainly don't have coverage in places that I had with Verizon. I think its the bandwidth difference. I do get data speeds about twice as fast maybe more on T-Mobile. 30MB down 12UP
[T-Mobile LG G3] Powell730:
see at my house on verizon i get 70-80 mbps sometimes... thats on my m8. i also keep seeing theyre going to improve "in-building" service... do you notice it going out inside houses, building, stores etc...?

i did the test drive w/ them.. i was just curious while i wait for that phone to be shipped.
[T-Mobile LG G3] pwrmedia:
Columbus here...

Pros: LTE coverage great around the 270 outerbelt and suburbs

Cons: Spotty data the further rural

Cons x2: Hit and miss data when traveling outside city limits (i.e. I-70, I-71)

Calls/texts still great when driving, and I've noticed more "E" coverage lately than complete drop-offs. Verizon wins @ the moment if you're looking for reliable data while traveling, but as far as city coverage is concerned, T-Mo is pretty awesome.

Personal history: 12 years w/ Sprint, 18mo w/ VZW. Currently 8mo into T-Mo contract, w/ unlimited data option. Haven't looked back once. :D

[T-Mobile LG G3] zone23:
Yes when I go inside some buildings I loose my signal.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Powell730:
Thanks for the replies! I don't travel much at all, especially now that I have a newborn son so as long as I can get coverage at my home and work I might pull the trigger. One thing that might hold me back is I am on edge with Verizon and I just found out you can't apply the etf payoff from tmo to help payoff your phone on the edge plan. So I'd have to payoff my phone in full ($550 still) and then switch.. Which kinda sucks.

Looking forward to the test drive to see what I'm able to get. Something that has been confusing me is when the coverage map says "service provider" what does that mean? Voice only? On something other than T-Mobile? Also.. That coverage map, is that data coverage or voice?
[T-Mobile LG G3] wideasleep1:
Sensorly and OpenSignal maps can give you a good idea of real user-generated signal maps in the areas you frequent, but they do work best in urban/sub-urban locations where more users map their travels.
[T-Mobile LG G3] abrcrmdl23:
Tmo in Columbus is great for me on the north side. If I go too far past Powell though I drop to 2g. I average 20-25+ on lte and even if I use hspa I still get 10. I find the signal bars with tmo seem to fluctuate a lot when I had my nexus and it would show I had 1 to 0 bars sometimes but I never had a problem making calls or using data. In my basement at home I used to get 0 bars of lte but still could pull 10mbps down. I would recommend the switch in Columbus if you don't travel a lot out in to the country.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Powell730:
I work in Powell so it's good to hear it works there. I do often have to travel north into Delaware or sometimes further north into the rural areas but not having 4g there wouldn't really bother me because it's never a long time I'm there.

When you say hspa, is that 2g?
[T-Mobile LG G3] abrcrmdl23:
Hspa+ is their 4g but not the lte. It works way different than Verizon.

T-mo has the following.

1g gsm

2g edge = 1xrtt for Verizon

3g Hspa = cdma for Verizon

3.5g Hspa+42 (faux 4g) = comparable to Verizon lte in slower market.

4g lte = Verizon lte

Wideband lte (which Columbus has) is a 15x15 lte setup which is faster than standard lte.
[T-Mobile LG G3] wideasleep1:
This was true last year. Tmo now has LTE and some areas already have 20x20 service..sadly not mine..yet.

I recently made the switch from T-Mobile to Verizon due to poor signal areas in Western PA where I travel to from Eastern Ohio. In the city T-Mobile is amazing for me, 40mbs down and 15up. Same area on Verizon 8 and 2...., however I get 4G LTE most areas and sometimes 3G, but works well. T-Mobile I couldn't even place a call...

It's unfortunate as I'd rather rock T-Mobile. Their plans are head and shoulders better. Paying 81 bucks unlimited text and voice and 1 frigging gig of data, granted I can't use it much at work, then home on wifi.

Oh well, such is life...
[T-Mobile LG G3] Powell730:
Well my test drive will be here tomorrow! I'm just hoping it comes before 1pm when I have to leave for work, otherwise no one will be here to sign for it ?

I'm definitely very excited to give it a try, would love to be able to not worry about my data again.. If I make the switch I'm debating on selling the m8 that I have to pay off and get the nexus 5.. I've read some stuff that people were having issues with network speeds on the nexus 5.. Anyone know if there's a specific version or something to avoid on the nexus 5? Sorry for the noob questions, it's completely different from Verizon which is what I've been with my whole life. I'm used to only being able to get your phone from Verizon instead of using unlocked phones etc..

After 14 years with Sprint I switched to T-Mobile a little over a year ago. Sprint use to be good and T-Mobile sucked but now it's flipped. I drove from Columbus to Savannah GA 3 months ago and service was decent. Not sure if you have just one line but I just noticed T-Mobile dropped the family 10GB plan to $100 from $160. I have unlimited data and don't really need it but nice to have in case home internet goes down. I also have the original Jump which is nice. Only issue I had with T-Mobile is they took away my discount but I got a better one. lol Sean at the 5th Ave store is really good.

Areas where I have tested In Columbus, Ohio and should only get better with Wideband LTE. :) Go Buckeyes!

Upper Arlington - I live by Riverside Hospital and get great service. It's near Ohio State (the Shot and Shoe) University Square

Bethel / Sawmill Rd - Good

Hilliard / Fishinger - Great

Polaris area - Great

Dublin - I think good in most areas

Muirfield - Around Glick Rd / Jerome not so great. The low speeds on my screen shot.

Marysville - Spotty. No service at the golf clubs but that's a good thing. lol
[T-Mobile LG G3] decaturbob:
One considetation is TMO coverage is pretty thin on the highways so if data is a consideration while traveling...TMO certainly not up to par with Verizon...

blasted by TMO G3
[T-Mobile LG G3] Powell730:
Thanks for the tests!

It's not really... I'm not expecting it to be the same as Verizon, but as long as I can make calls and text.. And get 4g where I work/wife works and live then I'll prolly make the jump. I also just found out Verizon phones don't work on T-Mobile which I wasn't aware of, so I'll have to end up doing something for a phone cuz I don't want to pay monthly on T-Mobile.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Powell730:
they didn't make me sign either, but it said in the email from tmobile that i must sign for it.

from my testing so far, I'm pretty impressed... i don't get great service in my basement which is perfect from Verizon... same with in my house in general.. i get about 25 down and 1 up but Verizon phone next to it gets 55 down and 25 up(all inside)... but outside my home I've gotten 69 down which i can sometimes achieve on Verizon. it's spotty all over the city of Powell but in the southern part of the city its pretty strong and where i work its definitely strong enough (15-25 down).. as I said though, I'm not expecting it to be comparable to Verizon.. just as long as it's good enough to work for me. I haven't had any problems with calls or texts (other than iMessage but that's due to the stupid iPhone they sent me).

now I just have to decide if i want to up my bill to get slightly worse data coverage but unlimited data... i'm on a family plan w/ 5 smartphones on Verizon and we just split the bill 5 ways which ends up being ~59/phone. So this will increase my bill for sure (only bringing two of the 5 with me to t-mobile). decisions decisions.

Thanks for all the help/opinions!

LG G2 Sprint

CM 11 - latest snapshot

TWRP recovery installed

So I installed an Xposed module and it screwed up my phone. My phone will boot, but once it does, it just does this weird thing and doesnt respong to touch. However the power button and power menu work, so I am able to turn it off and reboot it.

I was able to get into recovery twice, earlier today after a ton of tries. Now it's just not working. I have tried over and over and over and over again and the thing just will NOT boot recovery. It just keeps booting up, or restarting if I continue to hold down the buttons.

I decided to try ADB commands, but I dont think I have debugging enabled and my device wont show up when I ask ADB for a list of devices.

I got it to boot into recovery twice with "vol-up + vol-down + power".

After booting out of recovery to see if what I did worked, I tried to get back in and it wouldnt work after so many tries.

So I did a Google search to see if the button combination was right, and I found a guy use just "vol-down + power", which wont work for me. Worked for him though.

Any suggestions?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] corrsea:
Use the first method to get into recovery again. Make sure you don't have a usb cable connected or it won't work.

Xposed will have created a recovery zip on your internal sd. Flash it and everything should be back to normal.

Hey

Any luck?

I think I tried all possibilities - vol up + power, vol down + power, power three times, vol down/up + power several times... Still no recovery.

One more thing - I don't have root.

I have not managed to find an aftermarket cable that will charge at more than 1amp. Anyone know of an aftermarket cable that actually is capable of 1800mA? I've tried nGear and monoprice, and while they are very well constructed cables, they will only charge at 1amp or less with the n7100

I'm breaking your rules (gasp) but as far as I'm aware, it's not the cable that manages the charge, it's the power adapter that feeds the usb, right? I've used all sorts of random cables on my travels for work, but always sticking to my 2+ amp output charger, and they've always worked.
