[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gerard0986:
I have the Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 AT&T LTE. Some places/people claim it has Gorilla Glass, but then others won't say anything about it or say it is a regular Samsung-made glass.

I also noticed http://www.corninggorillaglass.com/products-with-gorilla/samsung and also found that the tablet is listed under the Wikipedia page of devices that have GG, but nothing on Samsung's site.

So, does the Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 have Gorilla Glass?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
Yes, it has Gorilla Glass 3.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hawkye:
It definitely does. I dropped mine down a flight of stairs about 15ft and it didn't crack. Luckily it didn't land face down and the stairs were carpeted. I was shocked it didn't crack at all though.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oversleeper:
Ok guys, maybe this could work for those who lost their IMEI running a "fastboot erase all" or for any other reason. It's a theoretical solution, since I can't test it on my device because my IMEI works. So don't blame me if doesn't work.

1) Go on fastboot mode (vol down + power button) and select BP Tools

2) Connect the usb cable to computer

3) Open Windows Device Manager (write "devmgmt.msc" without quotes in the Start menu)

4) You will see "Motorola QC Diag Interface, click on it and update drivers, search driver on computer, manually search, PORTS (com and lpt), Motorola, Motorola QC Diag Port

5) Now your device is correctly recognized

6) download this tool (credits to lyriquidperfection, the tool isn't mine)

10) extract and open the tool, select Qualcomm NV tools

11) chose the right com port, connect your phone and go on secure options, check IMEI box, click Read (should be 000000000000000)

12) write your IMEI and click Write

13) tell me if it works

TESTED, UNFORTUNATELY IT DOESN'T WORK.:(

I've looked through a lot of threads about changing the Xperia UI to a stock android or aosp based theme but most say to just use a launcher. My question is is there a way of skinning everything like settings app, status bar, quick settings and the whole lot.

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prestigerg7:
Hello Everyone,

I had a question about using my Z2 while in Europe for vacation. My mobile provided is T-Mobile USA. I have the international version of the Z2; model number D6503.

Basically, I want to know if the phone will automatically connect to mobile networks in Europe by itself or if I will have to change options on the phone such as the APN in order for me to get mobile service? The country in question is Bulgaria, and per T-Mobile's site they do have service there.

In the USA, the phone set itself up, all I had to do was select download internet and MMS settings and I was good to go. Will I have to do something similar like that while in another country or will the default T-Mobile APN suffice?

Thank you for your time and assistance!
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] augie7107:
Shouldn't have to do anything but enable roaming. I spent July in Greece and Turkey and never had an issue (AT&T). Negotiate the rates with your carrier prior to departure. Roaming voice and data are not generally included in domestic plans.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prestigerg7:
Thank you! I was hoping you only needed to activate roaming. And thank you for the heads up as well. Luckily T-Mobile has pretty good international rates.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PodgeD:
Hey,

Sorry if this is in the wrong form or has been answered but I've been searching for a while and it's annoying me.

I was using Cmd 11 M6 (I think) and everything was working perfectly. Updated to M7 one day and when I connect to any laptop/PC with XP/win7/win8 it just comes up as device not recognized. Phone would charge but nothing else comes up. I downloaded root manager, fixed permissions and restarted. Now when plugged in USB debugging comes up on the phone and computers search for drivers. HTC sync is installed as well as separate driver packages but nothing works.

I'm trying to restore my phone back to stock so I can SIM unlock it as I bought it in America and I've returned to Ireland. No phone is driving me crazy and dont want to go back to a crap phone >:( >:(

Rant over, again sorry if I'm being an idiot!

Thanks.

I got stuck in cymd boot loop recently so re-unlocked bootloader and flashing back to cymd. Ive read that if I flash ARHD I might be able to get s-off even with hboot 1.56? I dont need to have it perfect stock. Just enough to get it SIM unlocked
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majmoz:
Yes, could you post it just remove the imei and serialno first.

---------- Post added at 02:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:28 PM ----------

If you have a hboot 1.56, then you are on OS 4.19.531.10 which means you will not be able to run that RUU zip unless you are S-OFF. You can only run RUU's that are the same or higher. You can run this RUU 5.14.531.11, however it will change your hboot to 1.57.

You can try firewater s-off and try various combinations of customs roms and kernels until you get the "whelp sucks" message which means you cannot use firewater. Then there is sunshine s-off but it cost $25 USD. In the UK, there is JAVA Card.

In my previous post, I gave you a link to a RUU that is higher than your present OS. You can run it and it should reset your phone back to stock. Since it is a T-Mobile phone, probably paid for, you can get the unlock codes for the SIM from T-Mobile.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PodgeD:
Tried the RUU you linked but the process got stuck saying "waiting for bootloader" I think this is because my phone was only booting into bootloader. I got it into recovery and tried the RUU again but it just stalls while checking phone. I've downloaded a cyanogenmod zip and going to flash from bootloader to see if the RUU will work when the phone is fully functioning.

I've tried firewater but wouldn't work. Found a different approach to it but the phone needs to be connected to WiFi so going to try that if the RUU doesnt work again.

Asked for the unlock code from T-Mobile but have to wait about 3 weeks.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PodgeD:
RUU.exe managed to get past "waiting for bootloader", reboot the phone and get stuck on "waiting on bootloader"..... I now have hboot 1.57 tho.

The only thing I can think to do since I can only get into bootloader or recovery is to push or sideload a ROM onto the sdcard. I've tried this a few times tho and I keep getting the same result

"E: Error in /sdcard/cymd.zip,

(status 0)

Installation aborted."

I'm going to try different ROMs but at 2mbps download speeds it takes a while to get them...
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] an0ther:
HTC has halted this firmware due to battery drain. I'm sure another firmware will be out in a week or two. I'm sure if you just flash a rom afterwards there will be no battery drain, its probably just something in the software. This firmware will let you flash all of the "newer 2.**" international roms such as Viper etc.. properly with new sound drivers.

Confirmed working first by "italyforever" - I could not test myself since I sold my M8, just wanted to help others out. Confirmed working by several other members too.

At&t 2.23.502.3 Ruu has just come out and I have had requests for bootable RUU. Here it is first from me! Place this file in the root of your ext sd card and boot to hboot and hit vol up to update. If you are soff you do not have to lock boot loader. If you are s-on you must lock boot loader first. Please follow my guide for the 1.58 bootable RUU for any questions. It explains everything. Do not try to modify file as it is singed and encrypted by HTC and will cause issues if you mess with it. If you try to unzip it, it will say corrupt because this is an encrypted file. Just verify md5 to make sure your file is good. The restore takes 14-17 minutes. Plugging in phone is a good idea so there is no chance of battery dying. It will do a bunch of different unzipping and installing. It will bypass certain things too, this is normal. Let the update finish. It will say update complete press button to reboot. Do not touch phone during this process! This is ONLY for the at&t M8, no other variant. CWS__001 or 11111111 cid required. This will erase your phone like new so backup anything needed. I am NOT responsible for anything that happens! Please click my thanks button if I helped you.

Just finished restoring right now.

I came from Viper 2.2x, TWRP, and I re-locked bootloader before starting this RUU. I have never done S-OFF, so I was S-ON when I did this.

Reverted phone to 100% stock, no issues. re-unlocked bootloader and flashed viper again. Perfect.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] akitten007:
Just used this to update from `1.58 since I couldn't OTA. Works perfectly! I was worried at one point when it kept unzipping and updating the system over and over, but after about the fifth time it finished. Thanks again!
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] an0ther:
I am glad it worked for you. It is really nice when people like you read the instructions and you knew to lock your boot loader since you are s-on.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] an0ther:
I am glad it worked for you. I added to the OP that it takes about 14-17 minutes and there is a bunch of unzipping, flashing, and bypasses so other people don't get worried and try to power off their phone. This is also a nice file to just leave on your ext sd card in case you need a restore on the go. If booting to recovery, you can just press vol down to decline the update whenever you go to hboot.

Worked great, successful update, no issues.

S-On, but unlocked Bootloader.

I was able to re-lock the bootloader prior to flashing this, it went through successfully.

Thanks!
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] an0ther:
Glad it worked for you. Btw, you don't need towel root. After installing twrp it will ask you if you want root when you reboot since you have unlocked boot loader :)

Also, 2.7.1.0 is current, I would recommend upgrading.

There was a post about "fastboot boot" command in the international forums a few weeks ago. I have heard that the "boot" command has been removed in new firmware but I cannot confirm as I do not have an m8 anymore. I have heard you have to flash a recovery. If you were just trying to backup stock recovery, you can boot system and use towel root for temp root and grab your stock recovery. Should be ..

As long as the mid matches and you are super cid it should work but I'm not responsible for what happens.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] bruce7373:
Fair enough, thx. ;) MID = 0P6B12000, which matches, correct?

Edit: yep, just confirmed that 0P6B12000 is for AT&T/Dev versions.

Later: worked like a charm. And I finally have true 4G/LTE speeds (10x what I had been getting), so very happy. However...

I left the update zip on my sdcard and booted into Bootloader. It scanned, asked if I wanted to update, I chose "no." My only option was to press Power to reboot, but it kept kicking me back to the HBoot screen. I finally decided to let it update again to get up and running (I realized too late that I could've just pulled my sdcard).

I'll move the update zip from the sdcard root, but is there something else I could have done to stop the boot loop?

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] direwolf1:
Thanks. Unfortunately the first key I received from htc (which I had already used) did not work after locking my bootloader with fastboot oem lock. I had to request a new unlock key from htc, and the new one worked. Just a heads up for other s-on people that you might have to do that, too.

yes but you MUST be soff. I repeat you MUST be soff. Do not try this unless you are what? SOFF

Download the ota.zip that is posted elsewhere and unzip the ota.zip. There will be a "firmware.zip" inside. DO NOT unzip the firmware.zip as it is encrypted and WILL cause issues if you mess with it. This will also replace your kernel and recovery with stock so do a rom backup first, flash firmware, flash custom recovery and restore your backup. If you don't backup and restore, your kernel will be not be writeable. I don't own an M8 anymore so I cannot test this, but it should work fine as I did it with previous firmwares. I am not responsible for anything.
