For the most part, it's a matter of reading the patches. I'm going to update the links to patches sometime, but the links in the first post will provide enough to get everything but recovery going.

Obviously for some people the patches won't directly apply, but they're all fairly small so easy to figure out where to manually apply to other projects.

Problem with last twrp

Hello,

I have installed last twrp (openrecovery-twrp-2.8.4.0-find7.img), but now the recovery doesn't recognize the partition, so it's impossible to make a nandroid backup.

Which recovery I must install to work with LVM?

Thanks.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Wendigogo:
Hi there,

I've got 2 question regarding LVM :

-Can we switch from latest Beta ColorOS (unified) to any LVM compliant KitKat Custom Rom (OmniRom or DU)? Is it the same implementation?

-When wiping /data in unified it's no more an mkfs right? But something like "rm -R /data/* --exclude=/data/media" (I don't have the argument but you see what I mean)?

Thanks for you help
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] maxwen:
Yes - but TWRP is doing that on its own when it recognizes /data/media

So nothing to be concerned of :)
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Entropy512:
I've confirmed 2.8.0.1 and 2.8.3.0 work

2.8.4.0 SHOULD work, I'll try it out this weekend to figure out why.

Yes to both. As Max said, TWRP automatically handles doing it this way for you.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Wendigogo:
I've made a nandroid of latest ColorOS build (unified) on TWRP-2.8.4.0 without issue (on external SDcard). Didn't try to restore it yet.

I just wanted to know if I felle it right (and understand why wiping /data takes "a while" now).

Enjoy!

I've been using LVM with Omni for months, first with 4.4 and since some weeks with 5.0.2 test builds. Today I've tried to test 5.1 and now I'm unable to configure LVM. After install 5.1 test build I can't get phone signal; wifi was ok, but phone doesn't. So I ask for clues and [MENTION=4683552]maxwen[/MENTION] answered me that I was using wrong firmware/modem. I tried to install the right one and due to a terrible mistake I flashed a wrong modem, bricking my phone. Impossible to boot in system or recovery, only in fastboot. Using the unbrick tool I've been able to restore my phone, but now I can't configure LVM. I've tried with several TWRP versions downloaded from official TWRP site and the twrp_find7_lvm_09012014.img provided in the LVM post, but I can see several messages saying "Unable to mount 'Internal_sd'" and then "Failed".

Is there something I can do?

Thanks for your help.

Solved; I needed to format internal SD partition.

Been looking at the thread on Oppo forums for the Chinese lollipop version. Looks like the bricks are beginning to pile up. Why did Oppo decide to go this silly route for their Chinese ROM?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Entropy512:
There's a lot of evidence that the international and domestic teams don't communicate as often as they should (seems like it's the fault of the domestic teams) - While usually, the international team "follows" the domestic team, in the case of partitioning experiments, the international team is WAY ahead.

We really don't do much with clone devices. They tend to be more problem then they are worth and to be honest seldom tell the truth. I bet your device is slow is that it's has best little ram. Mix in the unofficial Android and the hacked together touchwiz and it will be very slow.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Fersh0o:
Hi, I'm having a problem with my new HTC6500LVW from Verizon.

Almost everything works good, except for the 4G/3G connection. I'm in México and my service is provided by Telcel, they use the band AWS-1 (1700Mhz upload and 2100Mhz download) for LTE, but the problem is that I found that Verizon use 700Mhz band to provide this 4G service.

I' have already configure the APN with the specifications indicated by Telcel, but nothing... All I get is EDGE connection. :(

My question is... Is there a way to... unlock or add this band (AWS-1) to make it compatible with the service proided here in México??? :confused:

Thanks in advanced!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Uzephi:
Sadly, no. The hardware doesn't support it. As for 3G (HSPA if it is GSM) the phone only supports certain frequencies from the website, it appears to be 900 and 2100 mhz.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokicar:
The phone that i have is (should be the HTC One E8) but on the specs it says: HTC M8Sw. It is a dual SIM. It runs on Android 4.4.2. HTC sense version 6.0.

It is from China Unicom, so the google services are not allowed. I tryed to root it. I unlocked the bootloader and i used the One M8 all in one kit from Jasoon. I flashed the TWRP 2.7.0.2 and when i tryed to root it, it didn't work. It is stucked on fastboot mode. I suppose that TWRP was not the godd one. Does any one have suggesion what to do? The phone is no bricked, but i can no go ahead.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramshidjafar:
I doubt that M8 tools will work over E8 both are technically different device.

Have you tried to do a RUU flashing? I think flashing with official RUU might help to fix your problem.

Between have you unlocked your bootloader? and made S-OFF?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokicar:
The bootloader is unlocked, and still have S-ON. I am stucked on fastboot mode. Comparing with the pic you sent, mien says : TAMPERED

UNLOCKED THe CIN is the same. The only difference is the OS which in my case is 1.18.1402.1

Does anyone know how to get rid of that TAMPERED thing?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramshidjafar:
Tampered is not at all a problem unless if you are going for a warranty claim, it is caused due to your bootloader unlocking and Recovery flashing it all common. Well, do you have a Micro SD? if so,

>>>> Download and copy the RUU (Link already provided) to your MicroSD, also rename the copied RUU to 0PAJIMG (I believe the original name is "0PAJIMG_M8_ACE_DUGL_K44_SENSE60_HTCCN_CHS_CU_1.17. 1402.3_

Radio_1.18.30306251.05G_30.57.306251.00_release_38 1279_combined_signed_2_4" rename to "0PAJIMG")

>>>> After inserting the Micro SD boot to bootloader mode, I hope it automatically loads the file and initiate the process. This is safe and TAMPERED OR S-ON is not a problem here.

Try this and tell me atleast you can get into your system. The first boot after installation mostly take time, have patience.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokicar:
I am not planing to claim warranty. I just wanted to root the phone in order to get rid of the Chinese staff ASAP and install the Google apps. I will get a micro SD and do as you suggest. But i am not sure whether that RUU is good for the phone. It says M8 ACE, referring to single SIM, and mine is a dual SIM. I don't know. Once i do that I will let you know.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramshidjafar:
Of cause it is dual SIM "0PAJIMG_M8_ACE_DUGL_K44" stands for Dual SIM variant, it is product RUU name not the model name that we people usually call. I think the "DUGL" makes it Dual SIM variant.

Better than trying the RUU link that I provided see below,

Try this ROM (It may remove Chinese apps, provide root, etc)

USE THIS RECOVERY (Optional but 100% E8 Dual SIM Compatible Recovery)

Installation is same as I said above, all is good only when you get a MicroSD

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokicar:
Additionally, can you explain me why i should go back to original RUU? The phone is not bricked, it works, i can access all the things it came with.I am sorry for asking stupid questions, but i want to understand. Wouldn't it be enough if i re lock the boot loader and install some custom RUU?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramshidjafar:
See my previous post, you don't need to put the original RUU anymore, my bad I thought you cant use your phone so that starting from beginning is a good start, anyway forget it.

Have a look @ my previous post it is much simpler, download all parts of the RUU and extract to get "0PAJIMG.zip" copy to MicroSD and boot to Bootloader and all good.

After installation you get rid of Chinese apps and You will have root too!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokicar:
I'll try to do that and i will let you know. Thx once again.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokicar:
So, i download the ROM and Recovery into my PC. I copy the files into Micro SD and rename just the RUU file to 0PAJIMG.zip. Then i insert the Micro SD and boot into bootloader, right? Once i am there, should i move the volume keys to reboot or? Please lead me thoroughly, cause i wouldn't like to be stucked somewhere. Thx

M8Sw = HTC One E8 Dual SIM - China Unicom version

Sorry to butt in, but just had to set the record straight: what you have there is the true E8 Dual SIM from China Unicom. If you still have this phone and still need to root it, I strongly recommend Dr. Oweida's ROM which I also have on my E8 and works like a charm. Lucky for you, you are already S-OFF so you will also have the international Blinkfeed.

First Impressions so far are great! I have been eyeing it for quite a while now, but decided to finally get it yesterday. I also bought the Book Cover. The screen is simply amazing.

I ordered mine this afternoon and it should be here tomorrow. Still hunting down accessories. This will be my first tablet. Looking forward to it; who doesn't like shiny new toys? I did lots of research and this seems to be the best tablet right now. Went with the black.

Any accessories you looking to get for it?
[Galaxy Tab S General] Leonart:
Somehow I'm surprised by how thin it is... I don't think I've owned any portable device that what this thin, tablet or otherwise. It's one thing to read about it or even see it in a pic, but when you finally hold it...

I'm actually not a fan of the bronze trim, though, makes the device look kind of..."blingy"...Like an expensive wristwatch or something. Not sure how to describe it. It's aesthetically pleasing, but seems out of place.

Thing just feels too fragile for me to take it anywhere yet, though. Need to get a good cover/case.

Really impressed with the display.
[Galaxy Tab S General] mikelp1973:
I didnt think it looks too bad, the bronze fits well with the titanium.
[Galaxy Tab S General] JustinL01:
I'm not so impressed

I've had the 8.4 Tab s for a few weeks now and tbh apart from the screen (even that has issues) I'm not overally impressed. The interface is a bit messy and extremely laggy. It stutters when scrolling and quite obviously the Exynos processor isn't up to the job for handling the 1440p screen. The Screen is highly reflective and forget about watching films etc in bright light it is almost impossible.

If they had used the 805 or K1 SOC for overall responsiveness and improved the screen for outside use I would far happier, I also have the Shield Tablet and that is so much faster for almost all tasks it's beyond a joke. Also I still find the Android Tablet interface lacking compared to Apple's. Anyway OP hopefully they will improve the responsiveness with a few updates and I hope you enjoy the tablet.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Ugly-Boy:
I just got it yesteday... amaizing... I used many samsung tablets... but this one is sleek and fast... loving it so far.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Leonart:
There seems to be a lot of disagreement here. Some people are saying it is smooth just being stock, some say can be smooth if you use a different launcher or de-bloat the device. I personally haven't noticed any extreme lag; mostly just quarter-second delays when doing something for the first time, e.g. opening the app drawer soon after waking the device up. But I at least saw someone's video of some pretty extreme lag. It's definitely worrying. I also don't have any tablet by which to compare this one, so it's hard for me to really perceive how slow the device might be.

I can't claim to understand the decision to use an 8-core CPU. It sounds fancy. But even the newest PC games utilize only 2-4 cores, so it seems like overkill for a tablet. Maybe I am misunderstanding how those cores are being used in the context of a tablet; perhaps they come into play when you are actually using the split-window functionality?
[Galaxy Tab S General] Provinomico:
The SoC has 8 cores in two 4-cores-set, only one set is active on a given time, one set is battery optimized and the other performance oriented, the lagging is prolly caused -apart from bloatware- by the governor, too much to decide, switching from one set of cores to another/plugging-unplugging cores based on demand/scaling the cpu freq. to cope with load. There's much to be tweaked -maybe at the expense of lower battery life-.

I was also looking for the s800 version but given the lack of information/availability I just went on a bought today the Exynos based one. Apart from the lag of the TW interface, I noticed two things I didn't like: my screen has a slight green cast when viewing from an angle, and -I have a very good sight- I notice the pentile/diamond arranging of the pixels at normal viewing distance, just barely but enough to annoy me sometimes ... that's a disappointment, on the Galaxy S4 I can't notice individual pixels even looking for them
[Galaxy Tab S General] Leonart:
Ah. That's an interesting architecture. Almost sounds like it's too smart for its own good... Sounds like something that can be improved, at the very least. Thanks for the insight.
[Galaxy Tab S General] deepen915:
I have an S5, but the AMOLED screen on a tablet is Impressive! Samsung has really done it! I tested a 4k video on it and it was SMOOTH!

Lol glad to see some old.mates from 7.7. Tab S 8.4 could be the true successor of that device.

To OP. 1st of all. Congratulations on your new baby. Welcome to the club. Like your observation. The amoled in this unit is superb. Even in total darkness, you wont see any hint of glow or those 'newtonian rings' which plagues alder amoled display. Sometimes. I need to tap on back/menu button just to know that the tablet didn't sleep especially during a blackscreen loading time in some games.

So happy with this unit. Couple it with a tempred glass + samsung bookcase for protection. Got some battery issues at first but managed to resolve it. I paired it with my gear 2 and i couldnt be happier :)

Hi,

I just got myself a T-mobile Artemis (dutch version).

Pretty content with it, but still figuring out how to use that internal GPS receiver. Tomtom 6 starts up but the searching for sattelite takes rather a long time and I give up in the end. (yes, QuickGPS was succesfully used)

But the GPS troubles are not my main concerns.

I live near the border between belgium and Holland and have two phones. I am going to be unlocking my Artemis using the currently only available method.

Once unlocked I'd like to be bale to put both my sim cards into my Artemis.
