Evening, folks. Yesterday i get my phone from the recharger and it doens't boot, suddenly a green light appears on the top...

Did i broke it? Can i fix with some boot config, or something? I hope this isn't some 'new we don't know how to work it' error...

Thanks in advance.
[Moto X Q&A] Travisdroidx2:
A green light on top means your battery is completly dead. I would try a different charger or cable.

How to fix efs ?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tetakpatak:
You have to flash with Odin an entire stock firmware for your phone including PIT file and enabled re-partition.

Make sure you are using exactly the files for your phone model.

I tried but not working

I used n7100 xxdlj2 oxa factory
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tetakpatak:
That sounds to me like very old firmware, LJ2? What is that, already 4.1.2 or still ICS? Try to find the one that was initially installed, as I've been reading before just briefly people reporting that even pre-knox bootloaders didn't like to be downgraded.

I have had MI5 when I bought my N7100 and upgraded the bootloader just once to MJ5, last pre-knox AMAIK

Hi everybody,

I'm writing an application that is catching all incoming sms. The app is working fine as long as it is signed with a certificate which has to be stored in 'Privileged Execution Trust Authorities' and has to be trusted itself for example by a mobile2market certificate.

Of corse, there has to be sold much money, first (round about $800) for getting a trusted app.That has to be earned first and so I am looking for a 'cheaper' solution that makes me able to give my app outside.

Has anybody hints, sources or examples that deals with that stuff?

Thanks in advance.

Bernd M. Walter
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Whiterat:
Signing is pretty useless since you can just run signcode to create a new certificate :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] WalterBM:
As far as I know, the code for creating a signature in the store for 'Privileged Execution Trust Authorities' has to be signed as well. so the dog catches his own tail, isn't it?

Of course I will try a little app, which calls the Method ProcessConfiguration for creating a 'privileged certificate. I will post my results about that.

Thanks for the hint.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] levenum:
I know from experimenting that WM 5 PPC devices, you can create a CAB with provisioning XML inside that will put your certificate in privileged store and run it without signing. You will still have to click 'ok' when it warns you that the cab it self is not signed, but it will install.

For smartphones (the ones without touch screen) you need to 'application unlock' the device first which requires altering security setting in registry.

This means that if you get a regular certificate, and sign your provisioning cab it should be able to install your privileged certificate.

It's not a free solution but you can purchase 10 regular signatures for about 400$ from Verisign and there is no need to prove anything to M$.

To the best of my knowledge, unless you are willing to have your users click 'yes' when your cab first runs there is no way around paying for signatures.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] WalterBM:
Hello everybody,

now I found the 'quick&dirty solution' I was looking for.

Inside of the WM5 SDK provides by Microsoft there is a CAB File named SDKCerts.cab. This CAB installs without any other requirements the TEST-ONLY certificates. If the application with privileged code is also signed with that certificate the application is able to run.

@levenum:

I know that I can get e.g. from verisign 10 signatures for the amount of $400. But these certs are only for executing unprivileged code. Getting certs for privileged code, the code itsself has to be tested and approved by Microsoft certified testcenters. And this 'service' is is not for free, too.

In my opinion that is nothing else than a big money printing machine created by M$ - But I have, what I want, an so this thread can be closed and here is the wrong place for political discussions.

Many thanks at all, who made some or many thoughts.

Hey all just been noticing people having difficulties rooting their Hydro Icons. So I thought That I'd share how I did it.

1) Downloaded drivers(and source codes for future use) from Kyocera site.

2) Downloaded Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v36.zip and Pwn.zip found @ xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460

Now for some reason I couldnt extract the files. So I repaired them then used the rebulit versions to extract the files.( Using WinRAR archiver to open and extract files.)

3) Extracted the pwn and moved it to the z2root file in v36

4) Clicked on the runme.bat

5) Select option 1

6) Select option 1

7) Install a SU then reboot

Now if there is anything that needs to be clarified contact me and I will make corrections.

I also did not make these .zip files but a big thanks to Bin4ry and cubeandcube.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] ODog2323:
Based on the research I've done so far, it seems like getting LTE on AT&T with an unlocked version of the N4 doesn't seem like an option. Is this right, that the international variants don't carry compatible frequencies for LTE in the US?

Do we have any options then for getting an un-carrier-branded version of this phone on LTE in the states?

The answer is no. The T-Mobile model "might" be the best option. Will know more when it is released.

Anyone able to make purchases with google wallet or softcard after updating their firmware to 4.4.3?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] shortstuff_mt:
I'm on the latest firmware and running NuSenseSIXv2.0 (4.4.3 based). Softcard works as expected after setting up the Rootcloak Xposed module.

Same here with rootcloak
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Deepak Sanje:
Same here. I used to use Google Wallet before the update on CVS once in a while. However after the update I'm not able to use it anymore.

Not rooted, running stock Android 4.4.3. OTA Verizon Updated.

I am resetting my phone now and will try soon when I get another chance. Anyway, how did it go for you? is yours working now? I do not have insurance, just ran out two days ago when I did a plan change. Sucks big time now that I have to get to know that it doesn't work. Also, just to be sure I tried ISIS/Softcard Wallet as well to see if it is the Google Wallet itself is blocked or handicapped for some reason. But to my surprise, ISIS/Softcard does not work as well. I am doubting the hardware now. Or this is a solid 4.4.3 Update bug that is causing our device to not function as normal. Question is, is Verizon aware of this? How do we report this to Verizon?

According to what I see here, only few have been affected it seems? or is it so?

I am left with many more questions than answers ever since the update.

P.S - After the update my phone isn't as smooth as it was before either. Feels like the I am experiencing choppy frame rates often times. But not to the level that I will fault the phone.

Please help. Let me know what worked for you and what didn't.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] DangerousDave:
Sorry this probably doesn't help you much but I am totally stock 4.4.3 - no s-off no root and Softcard ( used to be Isis ) works fine for me. Just used it this morning.

Hope you get your issue figured out.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Deepak Sanje:
Thanks for your response,

Thanks for the response, Honestly, anything and everything helps. Since you have a Verizon M8, assuming from your signature, I guess I am in the minority or rare bunch who's device is affected. I am glad to know that your device is functioning as normal.

I do not have insurance at the moment. And I am sad to learn that I have to send my device to HTC for repairs. Which takes about 10-14 days without phone.

Does Verizon do loaner phones?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Roefastford:
You should be covered under verizons one year manufacturer warranty go in to a verizon corporate store they will probably overnight you another m8, and from what most assume usually they seem to always send a new m8 because they are really hard to disassemble so many thing they replace with new. I know many people that got an m8 replaced through asuron the verizon and at&t insurance and everyone says they got a new one because you can go into the settings and they dont show reconditioned and usually show a build date within a couple months of when they receive them.

I say take it to a verizon owned corporate store steer clear of verizon dealers a corporate store can do more for you like overnight you a replacement.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Deepak Sanje:
Bit the bullet and called HTC.

Bit the bullet and called HTC. Found out there is another program that they send out a device in advance, overnight that is along with a mailer envelope to return our old unit. But it seems they put a hold on your card for 599 and also a 29 one time fee for this to happen. I am thinking if it is worth going this route. At least this will solve my problem of being without a phone.

But before I do that, I have made sure the HTC Rep to record our coversation and give me time to call back, so that I can test it out one more time.

( Did I tell you some HTC reps are dumb? The first one I talked to, the girl was so stupid that she did not know what is NFC and asked me to explain what it is, and how to use it. Asked me to pause, stopped me numerous times and made me repeat what was not working. After all that, she still did not get it. Hung up the phone on me and left, and did not bother to call me on my backup callback number. Lol. )

---------- Post added at 02:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:40 PM ----------

Just went to CVS and tried my Google Wallet. Wholla, it worked. So the second reset seemed to have fixed the problem. Or did it? I am not sure, only time will tell. I will keep on trying once in a while to be sure that it is not just a fluke.

Here is what I did.

The HTC rep (the second one that is, first one was dumb and rude due to her limited understanding) asked me to reset the phone once more, and when the phone booted up, I unchecked the Settings > Power > Fastboot option. Disabled Softcard/ISIS Wallet in App settings, Installed Google Wallet again. And all seems to be in order now. Not sure what caused the initial trouble.

I will be on the look and report if the trouble comes back again.

Thanks for the suggestions and feedback guys.

No Longer Working - Again

So as my previous post suggested, after a hard reset and disabling the Softcard/ISIS app, and having Google Wallet as the exclusive app, the tap and pay worked at the CVS. However, when I tried again last night, it is no longer working and not registering the tap anymore at the terminal.

I am confused. Is it the hardware? Should I go ahead with the replacement device from HTC? or Should I just blame the software and keep the phone as is. Although my contacts and account is backed up in Google accounts, I still think its a hassle reinstalling 50+ apps, and restoring the phone to its fully functional day to day state that suited me. I just do not like the hassle of swapping phones.

Any last suggestions guys? Or hardware swap is my only way?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Deepak Sanje:
Switched Phones, gave up on HTC One m8.

Update - Got rid of the HTC One M8, swapped for a Galaxy S5 on craigslist and guess what, Google wallet works fine there. Yes, although that is a Verizon phone as well, grass is definitely greener on that side. I do not like the menu system and UI, color etc, but what it supposed to do, it does without any issues. Yes I miss the aluminum body and the build, also the sense 6, but the ease of use with fingerprint sensor and the vibrancy of amoled screen picks up the slack. Wish HTC can use Amoled screens as well.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] txcforever:
I bought a few weeks ago a Star i6, basically a chinese android phone with quad core MTK6582 processor and Kit Kat version of the OS. If you follow this kind of devices, you should know that it's a pain in the ass to root.

Still I gave it a go using the only method that people claim it actually works (the one with the scatter file) but something went wrong in the process, either when extracting the file or when transfering the modified one back on the device. As a result the device is stuck at the boot screen, showing the logo and restarting after a few again.

Now if it was my old device (an Xperia Play which still goes strong I might add), I wouldn't be worried but so far this device was just a pain in the ass. Does anyone know how to unstuck the device, or am I stuck now with a brand new brick? I can access the recovery mode of the device but cleaning the cache and doing a factory reset didn't do anything.

Supposedly I can install an update through this menu, but I'm not sure what files I should use.

Is that possible?
[General Questions and Answers] TheArc:
I believe you will need the source code for the first application, as for normal (portrait) settings, it will cycle through your selected images. But you want to have a different wallpaper for landscape so you will need to implement a feature in the code. Basically you will need to add a selector for landscape mode wallpaper. And apply the function when your device is changed to landscape it changes automatically.

You can try and look for an app that does this. But I doubt there is much you can do.

[Moto 360] Dmooch:
Please excuse this post, if something similar has already been created, I haven't found one yet. But has anyone noticed that wearing the Moto 360 while driving is a problem, especially at night? Maybe there is a setting that I don't know about that you can turn on, but the other night, I was driving home in the dark, and every little movement with my wrist, the screen would light up, it became quite distracting, I ended up having to take the watch off. Has this happened to anyone else? Have you found a way around this? Any solutions are welcome!
[Moto 360] ThePublisher:
I drive with mine quite a bit and don't experience this. I believe if you turn Ambient Screen off in settings, the watch is less likely to light up with small movement. It takes more of a 'look at your watch' move to make it turn on.
[Moto 360] Dmooch:
Since day 1, I have had Ambient Screen off, I think it's more driving at night than during the day. I was wearing a t-shirt, so the watch wasn't covered, so I noticed the screen light up often enough that it was annoying and some what dangerous. I wish they would create a driving mode, or even a mode past the 2 they have now, where the screen only lights up for notifications or if you click the crown.

Glad to hear I'm not the only person who experiences this. It would be really great if they would incorporate more than 2 screen functions, like always off except for notifications. That would also help a ton with battery life for some people.
