[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
Hi!

First there is only one SuperCID, which is 1111111. If you'd like to convert your M8 to a free European - meaning WWE - version, you could go for HTC__001, restore the latest 2.22.401.5 Backup (will find it here I guess), as well as the corresponding 2.22.401.5 firmware.

As there is no RUU, you have to do it manually, using adb/fastboot for it. The steps would be: go S-Off (e.g. using SunShine as it also unlocks the bootloader during its work), change CID, flash custom recovery, restore the above mentioned backup and finally flash as well mentioned stock firmware.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NightOrchid:
Thanks for the quick reply and the helpful instructions.. Im new to this so can I ask... why would I need to use a custom recovery if Im replacing a stock rom/recovery with another stock rom/recovery.. I thought I just:

S-off, SCid, unlock Bootloader > Copy 401.05 zip file to SD card, goto fastboot > Flash from SD

or is that wrong

DIT:

So you mean flashing the rom then the firmwaree as 2 seperate files.. So I take it an RUU is everythinbg in 1 file.... from what I can tell friend.. O2 have already installed the firmware side of 443, which is the same for everyone, its only the software side of 443 that O2 have changed an i want rid of.

thanks

Yoda is talking about flashing a nandroid of the OS version you want, which is the safer method. There is a collection of such nandroids made by users here.

What you are suggesting is very risky. Applying an OTA from one carrier when a different carrier software version is present on the device is a brick risk.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
You can't flash the ROM including the firmware, as there is no RUU (no *.exe as formerly). Thus you got to be S-Off, flash a custom recovery and restore one of the backups you'll find on this forums. To do the restore you'll need the same custom recovery, as was used to backup the ROM.

But as a custom recovery doesn't backup the firmware you will have to flash this one afterwards. And to do this you got to be S-Off, as otherwise you could encounter errors.

Ok, Now I understand.. Thanks foks.. so Im downloading "1.54.401.10 - TWRP Thanks to ckpv5", Ill install TeamWin recovery as ive used it on my S4 and intall through that, Ive never used phils touch.

OK I think ive got all i need.. Fastboot, htc sync drivers, my nandroid backup, and an attitude to Follow instructions to the letter

Ill see you on the other side..

If you can think of anything i need to be aware of, ide appreciate any further help..

thanks
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
Let alone TWRP and this backup will not do!

If you want to convert your M8 and thus run WWE ROM and firmware you got to be S-Off and change the CID as well. Otherwise you won't be able to flash the corresponding firmware, that fits the backup you've chosen. In addition you won't be able to perform OTAs for this ROM, as long as CID and firmware doesn't match it.

For a start TWRP and the backup by [MENTION=830797]ckpv5[/MENTION] are a very good choice

Then Follow this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--Hlms1BuPg&feature=youtu.be

So I:

1) ROOT 2 ) Unlock Bootloader 3)S-Off (with Sunshine) 4) SuperCID HTC_001 5) Copy the Nandroid to SDCard Root 6)Go into TWRP and Restore Backup 7)Flash stock recovery .. Is that right
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jshamlet:
I would run sunshine first, as it will not only s-off, but also unlock your boot loader. Since you don't need root to complete the rest of the steps, you can save it until the end (if you want root)

The silk version was skinned cause of tini scratches that were starting to show on the back.

The material is very nice but you get bored and want to try a new look sometimes.

Hello,

I have a galaxy nexus running stock android 4.2.1 with a very peculiar problem. From time to time i have trouble accessing a certain website if i try from wifi or from mobile connection it doesn't matter. If i restart the device the website works without a problem. It was a very odd problem and kept bugging me so i tried to focus on finding the real cause. After a lot of try and error i managed to arrive at this situation:

I have at my disposal 3 different wifi networks (lets call the wifi-1,wifi-2,wifi-3) and mobile broadband connections.

after a reboot of the phone (just to have a clear state) if i connect to wifi-1,2 or mobile conn the website works OK. if i connecto to wifi-3 the site also works OK but then after i disconnect from wifi-3 and connect to any of the other wifi-1,wifi-2 or mobile conn it doesn't work anymore. If i connect to wifi-3 again it works fine on that network.

I've connected to the phone using connectbot and checked the ip address and different params. and i simply can't get a ping to that website. a similar website located in the same subnet but on a different IP still works.

So what could happen on the network layer on the phone to stop working the connection to a certain IP?

Where could i find some info about how to debug IP networking issues on android 4.2.x

PS: I control both the phone and the servers that i'm trying to reach and can't see any traffic coming from the phone on the server.

PS1: I couldn't reproduce the issue with android 4.2.2 only with 4.2.1 (i've also tested android 4.4.4 and couldn't reproduce) i've tested 2 different phones with 4.2.1 and the problem reproduces.
[XDA Assist] Perseus:
This seems like an issue of handshake and IP Negotiation on the phone. Please see what options you have in terms of DHCP and IPV6 Settings. Please also take a close look at the DHCP Lease time of WiFi-3.

Also Please post in Galaxy Nexus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting so that the right experts for your device may be of help.
[XDA Assist] johnny_snq:
Thank you

IPv6 is disabled

DHCP is similarly configured on all networks. different IP classes. IP addresses change correctly every time. As i'm able to connect to everything i try except that certain website i don't think it's something related with dhcp.

Hi guys. There's something wrong with bluetooth on my e970. I can send a file to any device. But there are only few devices I can revieve files from. For instance, I can't recieve anything from a samsung s3, htc desire-s and retina macbook pro. But I have no problems recieving files from my old hp laptop.

I'm on stock E97020j firmware. I flashed it using lgnpst and I haven't unlocked the bootloader. But I had used freegee once. Recently I discovered that freegee corrupts the bluetooth mac adress, so I restored the original adress, but it didn't solve my problem.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snappycg1996:
Hey everyone, on my Nexus 5 32GB on airplane mode, using greenify, brightness all the way down most of the time, some music, and on WiFi some, on Instagram or Kik messenger, I get about on average 2 and a half at best screen on time. I'm running my phone completely stock, and switched to ART recently, (it was the same on Dalvik too) and actually noticed an improvement speed wise, but I feel my battery took a hit. It drains a percent every minute or so when I'm on it, and I'm constantly pulling it down with two fingers to see my battery stats. I see people getting 5+ screen on time, and I just do not get it. I'm on airplane mode and everything.

The two biggest battery consumers are Android system and Android OS. With Play Music following and usually screen on time. I'm on complete stick 4.4.4. KitKat, no extra XPosed, no GB, no kernels

Is my battery just really bad...? :( I unplug from charger at about 6:40 every morning and by 4:30 every evening, I have about 50 percent if I really try staying off. Maybe an hour or half SOT.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] surrealjam:

Disagree when the user stated he was in airplane mode but it was a tongue-in-cheek comment anyway.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bblzd:
It's probably just your work signal. Most work buildings tend to get bad signal, and that makes any usage and background drains go up exponentially.

My battery expectancy is cut in half at work, even though I tend to use it less.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snappycg1996:
Thanks for the speedy replies everyone. I updated my OP :) I get off the charger at 6:40 and at about 4:30 I get home with 50 percent battery, mahnr an hour and a half at best screen on time. On FB or IG or Chrome, it gets warm I noticed. Then by about 6 with minimal use its usually needing a charge at about 20-30 percent. On airplane mode all day, only using WiFi and turning it off when I ain't on my phone.

With out any mods/kernels 2.5-3 is the norm. Just flash a kernel. You'll have AMAZING battery life.

I don't have Greenify, or put phone in airplane mode or anything of that sort.

That's straight one day usage with lots of YouTube, Instagram, Play Music and Reddit. Lots of reddit.

I have not done any modifications to my Nexus 5, and I'm averaging about 4 - 4:15 hours per day since I got it this past Friday (so 4 days ago). I doubt I could get it to 5 hours without a custom kernel or ROM. Maybe if I had the lowest brightness set all the time, and stayed on strictly Wifi.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snappycg1996:
What kernel are you using? I tried Franco before but had lag in Asphalt 8 and switched to ElementalX but didn't notice any improvements. That was when I was on 4.4.2 and got the OTA to 4.4.3. I installed 4.4.4 manually because I didn't want to wait. :P

Some people seem to get 5 or 4 hours SOT but others they get 2-3. It's weird really.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Not everyone can get 5 hours. Things like signal take a big impact. Kernel won't help that.

Pretty much any kernel can be tweaked for battery or performance. Its all in the governor settings. There's no kernel x is better than kernel y when it comes to battery life. Its just some people think this because of the kernels out-of-the-box config

Learn to tweak governor settings, but you still may never get 5 hours screen
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snappycg1996:
So with airplane mode battery should be on my side? What governor settings would you recommend? I know about the settings already a bit, used my Inspire 4G with a handful of custom Roms and I used I think it was smartassv2?

Read first 4 posts. The more of the stuff in there you do... The better your screen time will get.

Though a bad signal on data is the silent killer as others said. Airplane mode is overkill though, usually. Just disable data when in bad areas.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
do you have scanning always enabled disabled in your wifi settings?

i didnt see your battery stats, if you posted(quick glance). anyways, its not about kernels, as most have said. i get 5 hours sot nearly every cycle. battery is about how you use your device, how you set it up, what apps you use, and most importantly, the quality of your phone and data connection. and ill tell you what, brightness makes a huge difference. ill get an hour less sot if i keep my brightness at 50%, than at my normal 20%.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bblzd:
I disagree. I've got many examples of 5-8 hours SoT on stock, unrooted even. Custom kernels aren't what push people's SoT that far, disabling things such as location services and Google Now does though. I'd put money on that being the case in your example, though I'm unable to confirm without the screenshot of the apps listed on your battery page.

I don't use Greenify or airplane mode either, just adjustments to the default settings and careful use of automation tasks. For example:

http://imgur.com/a/HsQlq

http://imgur.com/a/Q3Rqu

And the furthest I've been able to take it on stock, unrooted: http://imgur.com/a/wvE06

All of these have basically the same usage scenarios with most of the screen on time coming from reading Tapatalk and Reddit. The differences are in how many settings were disabled and the brightness levels used.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayRokk:
That's exactly my point. On stock you have to disable sync, location has to be set to "low power consumption" low brightness, no background sync of any app. Bluethooth, wifi and various other things turned off. Possibly even airplane mode.

I literally don't touch any settings.

All I mess with is kernel settings.

GPS on, sync (of all apps) on, brightness I have it 3/4 of the way up. Bluetooth, NFC and WiFi on.

I too can leave my stock kernel/phone set up on deep sleep for 17 hours and mess with it occasionally to rack up screen time.

I'm taking about a days battery usage, with heavy usage and no 'power saving' methods.

You won't achieve what a kernel can do for you on stock. Stock is good and yes it depends from user to user, and no kernel is better than the other, but a modified kernel will get you more than a stick one will.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I got 6 hours SoT on any rom, any kernel and including stock. Obviously with the same setup and usage on each. Never touched a setting in any kernel either.

So I to have to respectfully disagree.

ROMs and kernels have their advantages and extra options for sure.... But from my experience, battery times are only different in the smallest ways. ?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bblzd:
What you say and what you show are 2 different things. Days of usage? Your example was 13 hours, mine are usually 30+. The shots that would've shown if you had locations disabled or not were missing though I can tell you had bluetooth disabled. I'd love to agree with you but no one has been able to provide such examples with any custom ROM or kernel so far without serious underclocking, so I doubt you would be able to as well.

Besides underclocking or messing with the CPU governor, there's little they can even change to save battery life. I'm running at full 2.3Ghz clock speed, using Dalvik, zero mods, never airplane mode, no Greenify.

Therefor I humbly request proper screenshots showing similar results over "days" with locations and "everything" enabled as you say is possible. It is my experience that such a setup could only obtain 4 hours SoT or so (without any manipulation), even on the "best" custom ROMs or kernels. I look forward to finally being proven wrong.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kilowatt95:
The most SoT that I've ever got is 5hrs51mins with Franco.kernel r63 + stock ROM. Mostly on WiFi though, with an hour on 3G/LTE.

IME, there's a huge difference between SoT results on data and WiFi, with WiFi having the upper hand. I usually get 5-6hr SoT on WiFi, 3.5-4 on data - however, YMMV - it largely depends on your signal, although I still get excellent numbers on a weak WiFi signal compared to a strong cellular signal.

So my suggestion would be to use WiFi if possible - perhaps GravityBox's Smart Radio would help for some, you can configure it to auto switch to 2G/3G when the screen is off/WiFi activated and switch back to LTE when you turn it back on - works well for some. If you have a weak LTE signal, for example, that can help to reduce idle battery drain.
