[Verizon HTC One (M8)] oFumbleSo:
I want to go from TWRP recovery to stock recovery so I can take the latest OTA and update to latest version of viper. When I try to flash stock recovery through fastboot, I can't reboot into recovery, but I can boot into the my current ROM. After I flash TWRP back, I try to RUU using the RUU zip, but it says that "it doesn't have enough space."

My 2 questions are

What steps should I take to return to stock so I can update the firmware?

On my fastboot menu, it shows the OS - spot as blank, what should I do about that?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] S1L3nTShaDoWz:
Have you tried putting the RUU on an SD card and booting into bootloader mode and letting it automatically detect it and install it? This would usually take a few minutes all the way up to 20 minutes, just incase you were expecting something quicker and may have exited out of it previously.

To my knowledge the RUU would/should fix the OS issue as it installs everything again back to stock.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] T4rd:
I have had this exact same issue on the last two M8s I've had to RMA, so I have to return them to stock/locked/S-On. I had to use the SD card option that SilentShadows is referencing above to get the stock bootloader on my previous phone. But I can't find my old SD card that I used before now, so I went back to this thread to see if anyone had posted a solution to it from the last time I posted in there asking the same question you have. I found this nice post which may explain it for me at least. I was using my laptop that only has a 120GB SSD that stays pretty full, so that may have been the issue for me. Make sure you have at least 2GBs free on the PC/partition you're flashing the RUU from.

Hey guys,

I have a couple of questions,

1. What are some of the best roms for my Sprint s3, im curruntly running Stock kitkiat 4.4.2 rooted. I have tried Pac Rom but i find it over heats my phone for whatever reason, Ive also tried Vanir, hellfire, Cynoginmod( also Nightly), Im trying to find one that wont over heat my phone and also one that i can remove the data bars on top basically make my phone wifi only,

2. Is there any way to possible get Flash player working on kit kat 4.4.2 on my s3 i read some things about different ways.

3. Is there any other good Cracked App stores other then Aptoide, Blackmart, appcake. Or is there a hacked version of google play store where all aps or in app purchases are free besides using freedom since freedom is not legal in our country. i already use Freedom with market unlocker to be able to use freedom. I miss my iphone for this reason because it was so easy to find awesome cracked app store or free in app purchases apps,

4. Is there a way to easily Flash my phone to another career like something i can flash to do it for me something like what iPhone had which was called sam Prefs.

I have a VZW Galaxy S3 that is rooted, running the latest SlimKat ROM (probably not important, but just in case). I have a T-mobile nano sim that I was thinking of activating for a month just to test out their service and see if I wanna switch.

Would it be as simple as activating the SIM card online and popping it in my phone? Is there anything else I need to do? Like maybe something with APNs?

Thanks!

You might have to add a T-Mobile apn, but I know that when I switched carriers and then flashed a new rom, the apns were automatically set for that carrier. Maybe you can reflash the system and see if the apn gets automatically set.

I work in the IT field and I mainly am an hardware expert. I have no programming or driver experience whatsoever. So where can I start? Is there a place or language I should start with first?

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rrussell50:
I was unaware that the Fire TV XBMC did not play certain MP4 and MKV files with Dobly Digital.

I came across three different files one was a 2 were Mp4's and one was an Mkv that XBMC recognized as 5.1 files.

1 - I made sure that passthrough was enable to goto my receiver along with DTS enabled

2 - I was unable to find an updated media analyzer software to figure out what how the audio was encoded so I know what doesn't play on this system

3 - I then took the same files and I played them on my Midnight Mx2 w/ xbmc 13.1 and they both were identified and played properly in 5.1 on my receiver.

4 - I have used my Firetv with a ton of DTS and Dolby Digital files however these three for some reason do not work.

Does anyone know a good media analyzer software that will give me the correct information?

Also I'm assuming I have to wait for an updated Firetv firmware to fix this issue ?

I am running xbmc 13.2 not rooted but side loaded. Passtrhough is enabled correctly in the audio settings. XBMC recognizes the files as 5.1 but will not play that one my receiver.

Please let me know

thanks

All files play properly on my Midnight Mx2 running xbmc 13.1...... however the dolby digital does not work on the amazon fire tv running 13.1 or 13.2

Try Handbrake. You can change the container from MP4 to MKV and transcode AAC to AC3.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pilotbob3:
I'm totally unable to play anything with Dolby Digital, DTS, etc. formats in XBMC 13.2 or 13.1. I am hooking up to an Onkyo receiver using HDMI and through that to a Sony TV via HDMI. Receiver shows 2 channel stereo only and never switches to DD or DTS (let alone HD formats).

If I start using just the Amazon interface, I can stream content from Amazon in DD mode just fine, so I know the basic connections work. Once I start XBMC, it works fine except all output is in 2 channel stereo.

Not only that, once I start XBMC, and then exit and go back to the Amazon interface, all programs that stream from Amazon fail.

Can anyone confirm this behavior?

Thanks in advance
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rrussell50:
What are your settings under Audio output? please confirm this, and make sure audio passthrough is enabled along with dts capable receiver.

I have had a lot of success with the fire tv with a lot of different files, but I found some that had an issue.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snowf0x:
To get XBMC to transcode AAC 5.1 to AC3 5.1, in the Audio Setting under System, ensure you have Passthrough enabled, and the number of speakers set to 2.0. (This doesnt affect your ability to pass 5.1 audio on the passthrough, as it essentially does nothing for a passthrough device, but the setting does enable the next option). Now under the passthrough section, where you select the capabilities of your receiver, under the AC3 capable reciever, there will be an option to enable Dolby Digital Transcoding. Enable that, and your AAC 5.1 will be transcoded to AC3 5.1 and passed through to your receiver as such.

No it did not I was replying back finally to ask for instructions, even though I am familiar with handbrake and have used it for years I could use a refresher on changing audio streams and containers.

So I tried using the universal preset and changing some of the options in the audio to ac3 but that did not work

could really use some help

Im not sure if this is of any help but I have DTS,AC3 and AAC 5.1 working with the fire TV. All I had to was basically what snowf0x wrote, and I also had the setting at "best match".

Could you post a screenshot of your audio settings? and maybe the title of your file so I could try it on my Fire TV?

Have not found any files which doesn't work yet. I also have mediacodec disabled with libstagefright enabled. The ONLY issue I have is LQ AVI files being a little choppy but that is a known issue with the fire TV.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rrussell50:
Thanks for help, I want to be clear it is not all files it is just a small handful of files (the ones I posted on the previous page) that are giving me this problem. I have the exact same settings on my other XBMC boxes (Midnight Mx2, Apple TV 2) and it plays perfectly with Dolby Digital and DTS. Just for some reasons those 4 files out of the 100 I have play incorrectly.

If someone could just give me the settings in Handbrake to get them to play correctly that would solve my issue. If you PM I can tell you the files that I am using and you can test for yourself

My Fire TV does not pass through AC3 or DTS audio via HDMI, only via SPDIF.

Result: Receiver doesn't recognize 5.1 signal.

This exact setup does work perfectly well with Raspberry Pi and OpenELEC.

Result: Receiver gets 5.1 signal

How can I get Setup 1 to work?

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graemeboal:
It sounds more to do with your TV passing the signal through to your AMP although if it works with other devices I'm unsure. Perhaps connect your Fire Tv directly to your AMP via HDMI (if you can) and check it receives the signal that way? Are you using the same hdmi port for all the devices you've tried? Not all have ARC enabled (at least on my sony tv) and that may be what is preventing the signal being passed?
