[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mschlott:
I'm bailing on Sprint due to poor coverage and I'm thinking about going to T Mobile because I like their pricing model. I'm getting 7 day test drive IPhone later today. I'll be moving 5 lines to T Mobile and Adding a line. One of those is for my wife and she want and M8.

When shopping for an HTC One M8, is there any hardware differences that I should be aware of? I know to stay away from Sprint phones, but I'm unsure of Verizon. If I buy an AT&T or T Mobile branded phone, can I load the HTC stock ROM, or a T Mobile stock ROM and expect to get updates?

I'm not looking for a custom ROM as this is the wife's phone and I need to to be stable ans supportable without spending a bunch of my time on it.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IAmSixNine:
For best performance buy a branded device. So if your going with T-Mobile get a TMO branded unit.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mschlott:
I think that is good safe advice. Especially when dealing with a wife phone. From a technical standpoint is flashing a T Mobile stock ROM on an AT&T phone the same as buying a T Mobile phone minus the support?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IAmSixNine:
I dont have proof one way or the other, but one would have to think from a manufacturing stand point that making these a bit generic so that the ATT and TMO software work on the same hardware would make sense. When i had my M7 i flashed the GPe rom onto it and it worked well. Then put it back to stock TMO after a while.

So it would be the same scenario. I just dont know for sure 100% if there are any hardware differences between the two..

sorry i cant help out more..
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] passion4tech:
If you care about getting earphones, don't get the t-mobile htc one m8. The t-mobile htc one m8 does not come with earphones. The other carriers at&t, verizon, sprint come with earphones except t-mobile. Why t-mobile version does not come with earphones is beyond me?

I actually lost the online tab before I upgraded to 133SP1. I was running 121 before.

I did the upgrade not the full flash.

Could it be because of that ? Maybe I should try the full upgrade ::rolleyes:

... can it be done now ?

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomhurst:
I'm on a UK G3, stock and unrooted.

Basically, sometimes when I call someone it will use the LG dialer, as I like. HOWEVER sometimes it uses the stock android dialer...Why does it have both?

With the stock android dialer it screws up my phone, as I can't then multitask as if I leave the screen I can't get back to it... Going back on the phone app takes it to the numberpad to call a new number.

Help?

Cheers

EDIT:

Here's a screenshot of the two dialers. The stock one kept coming up until I restarted, and then it was using the LG one. Why is this happening?

Nope. Not installed anything to do with contacts, dialer or anything. It just sometimes uses one, sometimes the other. Really odd!

i had the same experience. it happens to me when the incoming call is from hangouts.

Here is a RUU 4.11.401.11.zip that you can flash in fastboot. If you have an issue running the RUU then flash this firmware 4.11.401.11 first. These are the commands to flash both the RUU & firmware after booting into bootloader/FASTBOOT USB:

fastboot oem rebootRUU

Should see silver HTC logo

fastboot flash zip <name of file.zip>

The first time you issue this command merely sets up phone to receive the RUU or firmware, it will fail you have to issue the exact command again.

fastboot flash zip <name of file.zip>

The green status bar may not go all the way to 100%, if it is complete in the cmd window wait a few seconds then proceed.

Hey so I tried the firmware, and it worked! Flashed it BUT when I tried your RUU file, it said the same 12 signature verify fail
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majmoz:
They may not run since you are S-ON and I don't know if they are signed. I am trying to find a RUU.exe for you. Failing that, do you have a linux machine or MAC? If not, you can run linux off a USB FAQ Q5. Linux doesn't do all of the check that Win performs.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majmoz:
Since the firmware worked did you try to reboot the phone?

I'm not clear on what caused your issue? What rom was the phone on before you decided to go back to stock? Did you perform the unlock procedure the first time? If so, do you still have the Unlock_code.bin? If not, according to the procedure you need mostly fastboot to unlock your phone.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fifaman:
[MENTION=3070392]majmoz[/MENTION]

Yes I did reboot the phone using the command when I used the first firmware.

I was on Cyanogenmod 11 before. I did perform the unlock procedure the first time and YES I do still have the unlock_code.bin

Right now its on Relocked...

Is there any way I can use this unlock_code.bin to Unlock it? I tried on my mac and it said <error: cannot load 'token'> when I tried to <./fastboot flash unlock token Unlock_code.bin>

Sorry for giving you so much trouble...
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fifaman:
[MENTION=3070392]majmoz[/MENTION]

So maybe I could be doing this wrong or perhaps the RUU file is the wrong one?

Because I'm able to flash the firmware fine and when I enter the reboot command....it reboots but doesn't go into boot loader, its just a black screen. Then I hold down the power and volume down and it goes into boot loader mode....And I repeat the process for the RUU you gave me and it says the same 12 signature verify fail.

What exactly is supposed to show when I flash the initial firmware? because my phone seems to turn off....and I have to hold down power and volume down for 15 seconds (the home and back button flashes a few times, then it goes into boot loader)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majmoz:
You might have to go through the procedure again since you changed your firmware.

So, I guess the phone is working but you want to go back to stock? If you can get it unlocked again, then you could install TWRP and flash this Guru Reset 5.11.401.10. This will get you back to stock, at the end it will ask if you want to root or not choose do not root and it will install the stock recovery. Then you could relock the bootloader and you are done!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fifaman:
[MENTION=3070392]majmoz[/MENTION]

OH MY GOD! I Unlocked it!! It worked holy hell you're amazing!

Now I've downloaded TWRP...How do I install this?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majmoz:
When you run the firmware and you use the fastboot reboot command the phone should reboot into the OS. If you use the fastboot reboot-bootloader command the phone should reboot into the bootloader.

Did the black screen have a red triangle in it?

Cyanogenmod 11 does a job on the phone and unfortunately it sometimes takes a RUU to correct it.

Here is the entire procedure you have already got most of it complete.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crossvxm:
I know you can push files thru TWRP on Windows, using the Koush universal ADB driver, but not sure how it goes on other OS. When you have a device without an SD card slot, it is always best to have a USB OTG (On-The-Go) cable along with a flash drive. It makes life so much easier when your stuck on TWRP and no OS or on TWRP with a bricked OS and no rom to install. That's what I use since not every device is supported by the universal driver.

I see you know a lot of these things, i'm trying to help a friend over teamviewer.

He wanted to do a backup, but he had no files to load, there was a date in there still, and there is no os now.

But, even further, the phone had usb debugging turned off i think.

We tried every driver, every recovery, and i can't seem to push a file to it... bootloader is unlocked, there is CWM recovery on it currently, but that can be changed.

Big problem, we have, fastboot devices show the phone, adb devices does not. So adb sideload is not working, or any push.

Gave a shot to your method in here, with the fastboot, there is this message all the time... FAILED (remote: 22 loading zip info fail) I tried to flash a RUU, and a rom also.

Any suggestions? we're on windows 7

Edit: I managed to fix driver issues, i did a system restore on his pc over teamviewer, that helped a lot.

Installed TWRP and adb works now, so i pushed the file, and it's installing....

Hey guys,

Just recently got my Xperia Z2 and everything has been running smooth except for when it comes time to send and receive an MMS message. The problems I am experiencing are when someone tries to send me a MMS it comes up as a grayed out box with an exclamation point, and when I try to send someone an MMS a short message pops up saying "could not send" and then shortly after "unfortunately, messaging has stopped."

I have already reset mobile data traffic & data roaming, reset the phone, reset APN countless times. Nothing has worked for me. Hopefully someone has a solution for this extremely annoying problem. FYI this is with an AT&T sim card.
[LG G Flex] mattwheat:
For the past few weeks I've been toying around with the no custom recovery issue on the KitKat update. Trying different boot.IMG to aboots to different boot sequences. As you can guess I've had no luck. And ive gotten completely disgusted with the lg flash tool and methods of returning to stock from soft brick. But what I have managed to figure out is if you use the "lg PC suite", when soft bricked on kitkat, to unbrick, you can go back into the " lg PC suite files on your PC and get the .kdz that it used to reflash your phone.

When soft bricked I would power off the phone by holding power till it went off then on for a second then right back off again. Make sure all drivers are installed before you plug in your phone. Once off hold vol up and plug into PC. This puts you into download mode. Now open the lg PC suite that your phone installs normally. Make sure you have internet connection. And at the top of the PC suite you will see a toolbar. Click " mobile devices " then in the drop down click " Restore upgrade errors". Let it do its thing. After its finished you'll also have the .kdz for KitKat in the PC suites files on your PC. I've fixed a dozen or so soft bricks using this method. And when I don't have internet connection I have used the "lg flash tool 2014 " along with the .kdz from the PC suite files and returned from soft brick.

Lg flash tool 2014 is posted in another thread on XDA. I am writing this in a hurry in hopes to help others but I'm rushing to work so don't have time to post links to the tools.

Good Luck.
[LG G Flex] JayWheelz:
wrong thread
[LG G Flex] mattwheat:
I never mentioned using any backup. The lg PC suite doesn't restore a backup. Nor does the lg flash tool.

So what are you talking about? And a backup would have to be restored through a recovery....which we do not have on KitKat nor is there an option in the stock recovery on jelly bean.

And in my original post I mentioned

" toying around with the NO recovery issue on KitKat".

Are you sure you replied to the correct post. Cuz I have no idea where you got the idea of using a backup to restore your phone.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mnuel21:
Has anyone had this issue and fixed it successfully?

Update1: I contacted LG and Amazon. LG walked me tru a process of a factory reset, however I couldn't do the process from the phone because it would reset too quickly, is there any way of doing it from a pc?

I also requested a refund or a replacement, with no luck so far, LG customer service is one of the worst so far I have dealt with, and Amazon pretty much washed their hands since it has been over 90 days from the purchase ( I bought my phone late on january)

Update2: LG has the worst customer support ever, they would just keep repeating their policies without fully understanding my situation, none support, or replacement, or refund given even when my guarantee expires next year

[General Omni Discussion] Gokulbalram:
As the title says, it'd be great if there was an updated list with the supported device which will be recieving 'L' from Omni.
[General Omni Discussion] Entropy512:
There won't be, since L is not out and we have no idea what changes it is going to entail from a device support perspective.

As far as devices that are likely to receive "focus" from the team - Oppos and the Sony Xperia Z family. (Probably Z1/ZU also) - Because of how well Oppo and Sony have treated the open source community, in general, team members are more motivated to grab "older" devices they don't use any more in order to work on them.

However here's a list of devices that are likely to be dropped:

All Exynos 4210 devices (i777/n7000/i9100) - No active maintainers remain for these devices, they've been on minimal life support for two years now since Exynos-gate and the Superbrick fiasco of 2012.

I9300 - No active maintainer

Unknowns:

N80xx - Of 3 maintainers, the only one who remains is Humberto and he's kinda spread thin. So highly likely to get removed.

maguro - This didn't have an active maintainer for ages, but I think one did step up. I need to talk with the team.

Honestly, I'd love to just kill Exynos4 with fire with L and be done with that goddamned hell platform once and for all... But that is only my personal opinion.

While waiting for Lollipop to arrive, can you please get around to updating the yuga kernel and blobs? There's no point of Sony going to the trouble of publishing the up-to-date kernel sources if the roms are not going to take advantage of it.
