I have numeric PIN for locking my phones. In LG G2, when I type the PIN, only "asterisks" show up in the type box. But in LG G3, the latest keyed digit show up in the type box for about 2 seconds before becoming an asterisk. Is there anyway to make it behave the same way as in G2, where there is no digit showing at any time?

Hi there.

I'me having problems returning my HTC One to Stock.

I just want to do it so I cant OTA update my HTC to Android 4.4.3, I don't need to return it to factory so no need to erase "Tampered".

I've tried almost everything for almost a week, here's what I have tried already:

Attempt 1- Flash Stock recovery, Relock bootloader and run RUU.zip

Result - writing 'zip'...

(bootloader) adopting the signature contained in this image...

(bootloader) signature checking...

(bootloader) rom parsing start ...

(bootloader) rom parsing finish ...

(bootloader) zip header checking...

(bootloader) zip info parsing...

(bootloader) Read zipped android_info fail

FAILED (status read failed (No such file or directory))

Also...

When I relock the bootloader, appeared the message "Security warning" under "Relocked"

Attempt 2 - Running RUU.exe on Windows

Result - Error, RUU version not correct.

Now, the info of my HTC:

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
You can't use a RUU to restore your phone because its S-ON. You can only use older RUU with S-OFF and there are no RUU that match your current version. You could flash a stock odex rom if you can find one You can find it on ARHD website. According to your hboot version, I think you should use a 5.11.401.10 rom + the stock recovery.

or you will need to s-off and use the 1.28.401 ruu
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonymacarrony:
What do I need to do/read in ordem to S-off my device with minimal risk and turn the device to Stock.

If too risky, is ARHD ROM similar to Stock ROM in user interface?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
S-OFF can be a risk if you are not sure of what your are doing. ARHD really looks like the stock rom when speaking about the interface. You should really consider flashing this rom if you want a quick and easy fix to your situation.

S-OFF can be hard to achieve on hboot 1.57. In the worst case, you will need to use sunshine which cost 25$ US

How about Android Revolution HD 81.0 is it any good?

I want something simple, I am going to give my HTC to my girlfriend, so, she doesn't need anything more then what Sense 6 already has to offer. But I want to update the phone to 4.4.3.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
ARHD seem to be one of the most popular rom for the M7 so im pretty sure you'll (or your girlfriend) be fine using it. We often recommend it for users who want to use a custom rom for the first time. If your girlfriend is not an advanced android user, she will probably not notice any difference between ARHD and stock Sense rom.

and don't forget to flash it using twrp 2.6.3.3 or you'll get issue booting the rom.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iElvis:
Also, the firmware differences between 4.4.2 and 4.4.3 are minimal. I did not notice any change.

[Moto 360] ThePublisher:
Sometimes my Moto will recognize my voice as I'm saying it an execute the command quick, like I think it should all the time.

Sometimes I'll say something and it'll take forever, and sometimes completely fail. I can then open my phone and do a voice command with immediate results, so it's not my connection.

I removed commander and autovoice which seemed to help some at first, but I'm not sure it made a long term improvement. Removing some apps I didn't use from the watch also seemed to help some, freeing up RAM.

Is too much of the voice processing happening on the watch instead of the phone? Or is there a bluetooth issue? My S4 processes voice very quick almost always.

Anyone else experiencing this? I can't seem to find any time this does it more than others. Quit or loud room, doesn't seem to matter.

Any suggestions would be a great help. I use the moto for voice commands a lot and it defeats the purpose of not pulling my phone out when it takes so long.
[Moto 360] v3ngence:
That one.

My old, decrepit galaxy s2 has what you describe but worse, sometimes phone bluetooth just turns off and can't turn back on... but mine is probably broken and dying.

Try re-pairing, cycling bluetooth on phone, or changing roms to one with a better bluetooth stack ;)
[Moto 360] appledroid:
If your S4 processes it fine, then it certainly is the connection between it and the watch. If cycling the antenna doesn't work try resetting either device, and if you're running a custom ROM check its dev thread for any BT related issues.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] sunny1772:
Hi,

Am stuck in a pretty tricky situation and any help would be highly appreciated.

Firstly, the phone's power/lock button started giving some problems, I searched online and came to know that, this was a quite frequent problem, with LG OG/ nexus 4 series, and could be solved by performing a factory reset, or by flashing a custom ROM. I took backup using Titanium Bakcup, and went ahead with factory resetting. But what I had forgotten was that, when I had bought this phone 1 year back, I had rooted my mobile, using SuperSU, without unlocking my bootloader. So, my phone used to work pretty well, until I was booting into recovery. When booted into recovery, it used to give the message, secure booting error, but on restarting the phone, it used to work normally. This time, while performing the reset, this got stuck in the same secure booting error screen, but also I cant get out of this since Power/Lock Screen button is also not working, currently.

Please help me out of this if possible. I am quite inexperienced in this matter, and hope to get some help, any, if possible.

[General Questions and Answers] fidel_cast0r:
two days ago i installed the above mentioned build. before that i i was on stock rom and after following all steps i went on to install CM11 on my xperia sp. installation went well and when i installed all apps etc., i realised that the battery was draining very fast, there were screen lag issues, and generally the phone reminded me of its first days on jelly bean. I read somewhere that the battery needs recallibration since the kernel and rom changed and it had to start collecting new data from scratch. ok i can accept this if it is valid, but what about the other issues. Does anybody have anything to suggest please? i have even thought of wiping cache and dalvik cache and rebooting from recovery to start again...

Thanks in advance.
[General Questions and Answers] fidel_cast0r:
I may have found a solution to the battery issues by recallibrating the battery, i will have to check it and see how it goes for a couple of days....i also downloaded an app to control cpu speeds and setting the governor to 'ondemand' mode may have helped as well with the overheating issue. however, random screen lags, although now less than before still exist...i will have to test it for a couple of days and report back...obviously, using a nightly version is a risk but still...

[HTC One SV] BitingChaos:
[Q] New update (Sep 2014) - now "vDM Client has stopped unexpectedly." Any hope?

Boost Mobile

Android: 4.2.2

HTC Sense: 5.0

Software: 3.05.653.4

I though the device was already on Android 4.2.2 (which came out in 2013 for it, I believe). But there was a recent update (September 2014).

After updating, the device is doing this over and over:

"vDM Client has stopped unexpectedly. Would you like to send an error report to HTC?"

If you connect the USB cable, "vDM Client has stopped unexpectedly." pops up again. The HTC Sync software can no longer see the device.

We can try wiping to factory settings. However, if it was a bad update and the system is messed up, I'd like to flash a factory image.

I found what I believe to be a January 2014 factory image for it, here:

http://androidruu.com/?developer=K2

This device is fully stock. Never been rooted or anything else like that. Is it possible to boot to recovery and flash the RUU without doing anything else?
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Ruu's are flashed while OS is running and must be equal or higher software number to the one you are running.

So the answer for you is: no.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] DeLoreanQC:
Hi,

My 2 years a700 won't charge anymore. there is no usb connection to my computer too. The power led in the power button doesn't lit.

the only noticeable event was a little fall (1 meter) while it was in fonction, but at the moment there was no perceptible damage.

So i open my tablet to see if the usb docking board was ok. There is no visual damage to it. I've checked the docking cable, and then notice a damage to the connector (see image http://img28.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=140254336_20140922_120435_122_391lo.jpg

Is it possible that theses 3 damages pins was the reponsible of the non-connect problem ?

I also noticed that when i plug in the cable to the motherboard, then the usb docking board to the cable, then tablet power on.

I checked on ebay and found the board and the cable (30 to 50 usd each), but before ordering the items, i want to know your opinions.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Moscow Desire:
I would say judging from the photo, you are probably correct. It looks like some sort of "short" on those pins and/or the cable is also bad as well.

But this is just a thought. Acer tablets aren't known for their quality construction.

Hello,

i have a G4 wizard that was a tmobile vario with german rom, i used the Risidoro's guide and i updated to the last k-jam Ita rom.

I made the same with another wizard that was K-jam ENG to the same K-jam Ita rom.

i encountered this:

-on the vario every time i change the sim there is a popup saying that the configurator is not compatible, and no antivirus has been installed.

-on the usa kjam the configurator works perfectly and an antivirus has been automatically installed.

Why those differences?

Any suggestions?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokey_joe:
Hey there,

my phone is broken, it won't load or do anything on the usb port while the system is up, when the phone is off/fastboot or recovery it seems to charge (very slow) and i have no problems accessing it through fastboot or adb.. but even when the battery is fully charged i cannot use it for more than an hour or so before its discharged again..thats what my problem startet with, over the night the phone won't charge and i couldn't use ADB etc while the OS was up...

i think it is a hardware problem, the last thing i did was updating the firmware, but after that i used the phone like 2 weeks or, without problems and changing anything......

first i thought about it could be a bug with the new firmware, so i downgraded to an old stock version and update it through OTA to the latest version but nothing changed..

then i thought of sending it in and i tried to lock my bootloader and restore everything before doing this but the only way to access the phone via adb was in recovery, so i did that and S-ONed the phone and locked the bootloader, not thinking about that i cannot restore the old recovery with locked BL.

since i knew that i am kind of an idiot, not thinking about what exactly i did at this point i thought i pay my rent by buying SunShine an S-On it again (i didn't find another way to root/unlock BL since i was on last HTC-Android version). and replace the recovery with the original one

now i have my phone with stock recovery and everything but i cannot lock/s-off the bootloader again because i have no adb access.

Does anyone have an idead how i can prepare my phone for sending it in?

I thought about rooting stock firmware, replace recovery with stock recovery, write a script that locks the bootloader execute it after replacing recovery and unroot the phone from within SuperSU. then S-OFF it again.

I guess this should work, but since i didn't think about everything the first time i thought i might ask here if someone has a better idea.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majmoz:
You have stated a lot of things but most of them are contradictory.

What is the status of your phone? Locked or Unlocked?

Are you S-ON or S-OFF?

What recovery do you have on the phone? Stock or Custom?

What specifically are you trying to accomplish?

If you have stock rom, stock firmware with stock recovery, bootloader is locked and you are S-ON then you are back to stock. However, if your bootloader states "Tampered" and/or "Relocked" then the service facility will know that you tampered with the phone. To remove those items:

Unlock bootloader

Follow the steps in nkk71's SuperGuide in my signature on:

--Gain S-OFF

--Custom recovery

--Removing "Tampered" & "Locked"

--Install stock firmware

--Gain S-ON
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokey_joe:
thanks for your reply.

i guess i was to confused to see that i can remove the tampered and unlocked flags, then restore the stock bootloader and then s-off the phone...i thought i have to remove tampered/unlocked and then s-on the phone in the same step....i guess i have no problem when i can do it like that
