Hi. Lets start by saying great site! I've been reading solid for two days now, and i'm ready to start playing with flashing my XDA iii.

However, problem. I have an XDAiii on O2 UK, which as far as I can tell from this site and an hours worth of googling means it is a Blueangel. But... when i try and run any blueangel updaters i get wrong phone type errors, so i tried the Himalaya ones, and they work. My device 'looks' like the images of Himalaya models, but I keep reading things like ''Blueangel, sold as XDAiis and XDAiii.'' and ''Himalaya, sold as XDAii''

So which is it? Blueangel or Himalaya? and if it is Blueangel, why won't they work?

Don't know if its any use, but here's the info from the boot screen

r 1.00.00

g 1337.39

d 1.11.00 wwe

Fingers crossed for a definitive answer, so I can start playing!

Thanks in advance

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shonikk:
Hello there!

I purchased the new HTC One M8 and it is just AMAZING!

I came from Galaxy SIII... and the differences are huge and I don't regret my move :)

Anyways, when flashing something on SIII and rooting the device was VERY simple and user-friendly..

I could change ROMs without any problem and knew every step and step.

But after checking how to install a costum room on the M8 I feel like I don't understand anything.

I need a really detailed guide to how to flash a costum ROM? what do I need for it? how to root the device? what is S-OFF S-ON..?

I really know nothing about how to flash costum ROMs to HTC device ...

And I don't know where to start from and which ROM to choose, so please i'd like to have a very detailed step by step guide for rooting + flashing costum ROMs

Thanks!

I tried searching but couldn't find an existing thread or anything on google. I've never had this issue before. I am on note 2 and just installed liquid smooth rom kitkat 4.4.4. I did full system wipe, internal sd card, and dalvik cache wipe 3 times in a row. When I get a new sms or google hangouts message I do not get notified by sound or led notify light. I do get a new notification in my pull down menu. I made sure volume is on max. I unchecked set phone volume to notification volume so they are separate. I changed the ringtone to something else. When hangouts was my default msg app I cleared system data, reboot phone, and logged in again manually. No sound. I then changed default msg app to the stock messenger app. Same issue. Everything else that would trigger sound on my phone works fine. Phone calls, alarm, time countdown stopwatch, pandora, music player, youtube are fine. Anyone else have this issue? It seems the only way I can make sure I have a new SMS is to turn on my screen. This is not going to work for me since SMS is the most used app on my phone. Can anyone confirm a bug in 4.4.4 for this or is this a liquid smooth bug? I didn't see anything in their thread about the rom. I am a day away from downgrading to an older version of liquid smooth 4.4.2

Thanks for your time.

Hi All,

Appreciate the guides and community here. Looking for a little help on my ATT S4 KitKat 4.4.2. It's rooted via Towelroot.

I want to run a custom rom that isn't slow. I have Odin, proper Samsung USB drivers.

1) Can CNW be used on my phone to boot to recovery? If not, what are the alternatives and how do I use them (is there a guide you can share)?

2) Do I have NC1 on my phone, what the heck is NC2, NC1-what does this mean, is it relevant?

Thanks all

-Christian
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] freestylejunki32:
If you have updated your phone to the att 4.4.2 firmware then you should be on NC1 which means you cannot put cwm or any CM rom. The only recovery you can use is safestrap. After that you can only flash rooms the specifically say safestrap compatible and you must flash the att_nc1 module after flashing rom for WiFi to work. Read the safestrap thread under the development section before doing anything.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] blkwrxwagon04:
I bought an 8525 a couple of days ago and have been playing around with it. The 8525 has replaced my 8125, which I loved dearly...

I have noticed 3 major bugs in the device :

1) The 8525 does not indicate when you are using edge by the "E" icon. It simply has the "G" while producing edge speed.

2) The non-3G internet connection is terrible. It times-out quite often. For instance, when I try to check my email using pocket outlook it sometimes takes forever.. or when i am trying to access a website, it says locating for about 1-2 minutes before actually opening it up. When the internet is working without the those time-outs and lags, it works great (better then the 8125 in non-3G areas).

3) Pressing the power button (when the devices screen is off to save battery life) has a weird 2-3 second delay. This never happened with the 8125...

Here is my Device info:

Rom version : 1.34.502.1

Rom date : 9/21/06

Radio Version : 1.16.00.00

Protocol version : 32.53.7018.01H

The main reason I am posting this is to find out if I am the ONLY one experiencing these problems, if so, I am going to do a warranty exchange swap. If anybody has any suggestions or comments please share it here..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
Yes you're the only one with these problems. I don't know how they had the nerve to sell you it. I have searched the threads and posts here and let me see.... no ... nobody's had anything like this.

I'd take it back!

Edit: OMG look what I just stumbled on! Stop the presses perhaps not MAJOR bugs but still bugs of mass destruction!

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] spanky310:
Here is my experience so far:

1) I have yet to see an E indicator for Edge. I live in LA and we are still waiting for our 3G deployment so edge is all we get. I do want to point out that on page 25 of the 8525 manual it does not indicate that there is an edge indicator/symbol display specifically for edge.

2)The non-3G connection here in LA has always been spotty at best so I can't really comment on that. I do however notice that I cannot connect to a lot of the streaming content at locations where it was possible with my 3125 just a week ago. Also it take longer to get the streaming playing if it does connects.

3) For me the delay for power up from power save is about 1 second.

I have never used a 8125 before so I have no way of comparing the behavior of the two.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] URPREY:
I can't confirm this because I've not left my excellent 3G signal area yet but from what I understand the current rom doesn't differentiate between GPRS and EDGE.

Mine is a 1 second delay. No DSODs though, so it's no big deal for me.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ramontrotman:
well....i too just upgraded from the 8125...and i find the edge to be a lil suspect. sometimes i take longer than it should to pull up my email.

as far as the power button....it takes longer to turn it on when the screen is locked than the 8125.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] inquisitor:
The speed of a EDGE or GPRS connection also depends on the serving cell's current capacity. If there is too much traffic, you won't get the maximum of timeslots and so bandwidth will go down. 3G is not very different regarding this issue, but the most likely capacity bottleneck is the basestation's connection to the core network. Here in Germany a lot of 3G basestations have only 2 MBit/s connections, so two HSDPA-clients can use capacity to the full.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
Yes indeed.

1. I have never got a E but I am not to sure if Telstra even has a Edge network.

2. I have never been out of UMTS coverage since I got it so I don't know.

3. It takes about 1 second for mine to start-up.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] balld:
Everthing working great, but no E for Edge either!

Just wanted to advise, my 8525 shipped with the exact specifications as yours. I too am not receiving an "E" for Edge transmissions. However, as one of the previous posts suggests, we may never receive an actual "E" up top in our display. Haven't had any of the timeouts you are experiencing either. My email and browsing via GPRS/Edge(Edge if I truly am receiving it) works fine. No timeouts on either e-mail retrieval or browsing at this time. Over 2 days battery life so far between charges. Woohoo! Also, in terms of actually switching from stand-by mode to power up, takes approx. 1 sec. as well. I have not yet been in a UMTS area, so I cannot advise of battery life,performance issues related to that. I'm still loving my device! :D

Yes your right of course, I was being petty cos these problems are already posted elsewhere. Sorry for being childish.

I have to say though here in Aberdeen Scotland my GPRS connection is super fast, faster than my wifi connection and it's not on 3G due to my ancient sim card (must get a new one). So more to do with coverage/local GPRS conditions I guess. Weird cos until a few days ago it continually timed out with page not found and now works amazingly well. I changed nothing and I do not pay for a data tarriff!! I do of course get charged for bytes downloaded but still lots of folk on o2 like me don't get this unless they have a data contract. Weird.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] blueshockey69:
Just as a headsup to everyone who got the 8525 from Cingular, one of the things I was able to find out is the "G" in this case, also stands for Edge, I also believe it may or may not be in the documentation but have not been able to confirm that yet, so in this case:

"G" - GPRS, GSM and EDGE

"U" - UMTS and HSDPA

Please take this with a grain of salt.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] optimalcapacity:
Can anyone explain the difference between the "wap.cingular" and the "isp.cingular" configurations and the step necessary to make the adjustments?

Also, I have been having some weird connectivity issues where my cingular signal become unstable when switching the Wifi radio on and off. The only way to recover is to soft reset the 8525.

I live in metro Philadelphia and have tested this both in the city and the surrounding suburbs.

Thanks!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] stormj:
I've got an 8125 and an 8525 side by side in the same room, and the 8125 has an E, and the 8525 says G. Now, the documentation I have clearly distinguishes between the two. "Status Indicators" on the last page of the "Getting Started Guide."

I am using mediaNET on both.

This is a little annoying, but honestly, the speed is the same. Unless someone can confirm that this is causing lower speeds to be rejected, it's just an annoyance that, if I recally from my 2125, can be tweaked in the registry or some other simple tweak.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] stormj:
"Dial up"

Also, I'm having some irregularities using the 8525 as a "modem" for my computer. I have a C2D MacBook Pro, running Mac OS 10.4.8 and Windows XPSP2. With my 8125 I could use "dialup" on the Mac side via BT. On the Windows side, I could use dialup using the USB connection. (And BT in bootcamp)

I also have tested this with a regular plain HP PC laptop.

I have noticed that it doesn't always connect on the first try, whereas the 8125 always did. The connection speed is the same as tested on DSLreports mobile, but I have to say, I find this a little odd that it doesn't always connect.

I am far away from the nearest 3G area, so I won't be able to test it there until my next trip, but, oy....

Anyone else with this problem?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] shogunmark:
The cingular rom on the 8525 DOES NOT (not yelling) include an E icon, only G and U. When in G you are actually on EDGE, run a speedtest and you will see. Hopefully they will correct this in the future release. And since there is no included E icon there is no reg tweak that will correct this.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] stormj:
Right... as I noted, the speed is the same (it is surely actually using EDGE). No icon included. Bummer. Someone should have told them that when they wrote the manual. lol.

i have a pre production 8525 and when i first got the device in september i was having the same issues with GoodLink. with disconnects of my PDP sessions. what i noticed works great is using isp.cingular for my apn instead of wap.cingular. i also nowticed it is alot faster for browsing, since im using acceleration with the isp. so if you are on the PDA connect plan (and you should be) try changing your APN over to isp.cingular and see how that works. now as for the E for EDGE icon, it will never show up on the device. either you will have a U which is what i get, since i am in a HSDPA area or a G. so even if you are getting a G you still are using EDGE since all of Cingular
