Hi Thanks for your help.

I left the phone on the same screen till it drained out battery.

I rebooted phone in recovery mode and restore the backup and fixed the issue.

I would like to update my ROM and I have tried many different way and unable to succeed.

Hope you can help me to update the ROM.

Device Information:

HTC One 32 GB (New Zealand)

Rooted and Unlocked boot-loader

S-ON

Super CID: VODAP021

TWRP 2.6.3.0

Android Version 4.1.2

HTC Sense Version 5.0

HTC SDK API level 5.12

Kernel version:

3.4.10 - gcf4caea

root@abm004 #1

SMP PREEMPT

Browser Version: Webkit/534.30

What I already tried:

1) Tried to S-off using Firewater and Rum runner method

> Error:

1.) flash an unsecure kernel that's compatible with your ROM and retry rumrunner

(preferred and most reliable method).

2.) flash a different rom.

NOTE: No amount of messing around with su binaries and apk's is going to fix thi

s issue for you!!!.

2)Tried Flashing ROM

>Error:

Rebooting into recovery mode and needs to be restored from backup

Can you please suggest me whats the right way to progress further so, I can enjoy installing custom ROM?

Also, Please do let me know what needs to be take care while choosing custom ROM?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clsA:
Try this

Once you have ARHD on the phone try moonshine or rumrunner again. Firewater may also work to s-off your phone.

[MENTION=2895182]clsA[/MENTION]

I tried following as you suggested.

- Flash recovery TWRP 2.6.3.3

- then sideload this Rom to your phone

TWRP / Advanced / ADB Sideload - swipe to sideload

From PC adb / fastboot folder

adb sideload name-of-rom.zip

it was 100 percent successful when I have followed above step but It stuck on black screen.

Thank you for your help so far.

As. I am beginner in this field and learning many new things enjoying it.

Question: What things do I need to check when choosing custom ROM or any other ROM for my device?

I have flashed one ROM downloaded from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2441111.

Now my device is with following info:

My HTC one is S-off using Moonshine S-OFF method.

HTC sense version 5.5

Android version 4.4.2

SuperCID: VODAP021

HBOOT: 1.44

Recovery: TWRP 2.6.3.3

Let me know,If you need more information on this.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LibertyMarine:
you may have gotten a blackscreen because you didn't wipe your phone properly. It's about the same as [MENTION=2895182]clsA[/MENTION] wrote. But it's a bit more step for step. The recovery seems to be working. The ROM he gave you seems to be ok, you just need to MD5 check it with this tool here (compare with md5 given on the download page): http://download.cnet.com/MD5-Checker/3000-2092_4-10410639.html

Bootloop, No OS, Totally f*cked up OS? No Problem​

​

THIS WILL DELETA ALL YOUR APPS AND APP DATA BUT NOT SDCARD!​

First of all, make a factory reset in TWRP... then follow the next steps.

Now the key step here copying the rom.zip to your sdcard. You do this this way

Since you are in the recovery you should be able, no.. actually will be able to use adb commands

To copy the rom zip us this command:

adb push "C:\path_to_rom\rom_name.zip" /sdcard/rom.zip

If this one results in supersu and permission errors, try these paths(Thanks [MENTION=1102297]Sneakyghost[/MENTION] for this advice!)

adb push "C:\path_to_rom\rom_name.zip" /storage/emulated/0/rom.zip

adb push "C:\path_to_rom\rom_name.zip" /data/media/0/rom.zip

Now, in the recovery, choose install and select the rom you should've just copied and install/flash it.

After that make a factory reset, the standart when chosing wipe in TWRP.

Happy rebooting! :D

hie .. im french sorry for my basic english.

i have bought on ebay a xda 2 and i received xda with wm5

but the presedent user doesnt use the phone its only to use GPS:mad: .

have you an idea ?

i thinks the best is downgrade to WM3 but i have only usb cable and no alim .. and with HimaUpgradeUt i have error 101 .

great thanks for help ( pleas answer in basic english:rolleyes: )
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 2005 Upgrading] sawyer_family:
probably....

...the blind leading the blind, but

Error 101 is communication error, so

1. Disconnect PC from internet

2. Disable any firewall, XP firewall, zonealarms etc

3. Hard Reset XDA << probably not needed but hey why not

4. Put XDA into bootloader mode Power Button + D-Pad + Reset Hole

5. Connect XDA to PC with USB

??? does bootloader change from serial to USB ???

6. Run HimaUpgradeUt.exe with correct ROM in same folder

7. Wait for 30 mins

8. Hey Presto

Q : What is a fuel gauge?

A : It is a chip that helps our phone in calculating the battery levels. Simple and easy.

I guess it is something similar to the *#0228# code, still its worth a try.

The same can be done via stweaks, but for some kernels which dont have stweaks support, this might prove worthy.

Download Link

Requirements

●A rooted Device

How to/Recomendations

Just install the app and reset.

No such theories or battery levels required. At times when you change a rom the fuel guage goes crazy and there are massive battery drains. This helps in resetting the gauge.

Can be used on any battery level (as the dev said in the original link)

The original thread is here

It was originally for the Galaxy S2.

*All facts and knowledge after reading various threads. Nothing cooked up. Do not blame me if this does not work for your phone. (Still sorry in advance for posting if it does no good to your phone).

I shall not be held responsible for anything weird that happens.

Cannot post in developement thread as I haven't developed anything and also Q&A thread is the best for such queries*

My device: GT-i9500 with Ozcan Rom v5.2 and Omega Kernel

Thanks to [MENTION=4271616]Sejk97[/MENTION] for making this app.

This is not my work, but has worked for my phone.

Press thanks if this helped you :)

Helium works well but some apps can't be restore via helium because of devs restrictions.

You need to install helium on your pc as well to get it working.

Helium is very long.

Best way is root and Titanium or nandroid manager, sorry for that.

Hello all. I posted about a week ago in the Verizon s5 section with regards to bad battery life while living in Germany. I have gotten exactly 0 feedback over there, so I figured I would post my question here.

Admins - I am just copying and pasting. Unless you think it would be better to just move the post?

Anyway -

=============================================================================

Hello all. This is my first actual help post cause I now have a problem, but I have been lurking for a while.

Anyway, I have a rooted S5 from verizon that had awesome battery life compared to my old nexus - I could hit 2 days with one charge. Anyway, I am now living in Germany, will be here for the next year, and I can get maybe half a day before I hit 30%. It feels like I am back with the nexus, I have to plan my charging around what I will be doing.

My carrier here is Lebara. Under the battery stats Android system and Androud OS dominate usage. I had that under control in the States with some TB tweaking, but it is back with a vengance. I haven't updated the OS and am not planning to until L comes out and is compatible with root.

I am never far from an outlet, but I don't want to return to my old habits of always plugging in.

I just had a thought - is it possible that the different electricity standards here nuked my battery? If this is the case, should I worry about my tablet too?

I am also starting to notice a lot more lag and even freezing from normal usage.

=============================================================================

Tl;dr?

Moved to Germany with rooted Verizon S5. Now using Lebara. Half day battery life. Starting to notice lots of lag and freezing. Help!
[X 2014 General] cb474:
For people who have the 2nd Gen. Moto X, I'm wondering how the four microphone noise cancellation performs, especially for placing calls in noisy settings (as opposed to for the voice commands). Does your caller hear the background noise? (Noise cancellation in calls is something that is entirely for the benefit of your caller, not yourself--to block out background noise where you are, so they can hear you better.)

The four microphone noise cancellation in the 2nd Gen. Moto X is totally unprecedented in a phone. Only maybe one or two other phones even have three microphone noise cancellation (the OnePlus One is the only one I know of for sure). All other phones only use two microphones for noise cancellation.

This is a feature that is not often covered in phone reviews. But there can be real differences in quality. A company called Audience in the past has made the best noise cancellation chip. It appeared early in the Nexus One, which had amazing noise cancellation--I'd be in a loud bar and people in calls told me they thought I was at home. Subsequently the iPhone 4 copied this feature from the Nexus One, also using the Audience chip, and get a lot of positive comments.

But since then most phone manufacturers have gone backwards, opting instead for Qualcomm's very much inferior Fluence noise cancellation (I assume it's cheaper because it comes with the Snapdragon chipset that's already being used anyway, in a lot of phones). Manufacturers seemed to take a good enough attitude. No subsequent Nexus phone has had as good noise cancellation as the Nexus One (the Nexus S bizarrely had no noise cancellation). Even Apple dropped the Audience chip in the iPhone 5 and 6 for an in-house solution that is significantly inferior (lots of people have noticed).

Motorola is using their own solution for the 2nd Gen. Moto X. In the 1st Gen. Moto X the noise cancellation (two microphone) was not very good. But I'm curious now that they've tried to do something innovative with four microphones, how good it is.

Thanks for any feedback on this.
[X 2014 General] 0.0:
I haven't tested it out, but I know the phone is being implemented with their Crystal Talk technology as well. According to TechnoBuffalo I believe, the call quality was clear for both ends for the reviewer. If I get a chance and remember, I will test it out
[X 2014 General] cb474:
Thanks, I'll be interested to hear about your test.

Yes, I think the 1st Gen. Moto X was Crystal Talk also. As I said, it was pretty subpar for phones these days. I tested it myself and think it was even worse than phones with Qualcomm's Fluence. And AnandTech also did a more objective test and showed that it wasn't very good. I've never experienced anything that's close to as good as phones with the Audience chip (which have become fewer and fewer). So that's why I'm curious about the four microphone noise cancellation, since Motorola claims to have really focused on this with the 2nd Gen. Moto X.

Often, I find, when reviews comment on the clarity of calls, they haven't really tested the noise cancellation. A phone without any noise cancellation at all can sound great in non-noisy settings. Noise cancellation has nothing to do with the loudness or audio fidelity with which the phone reproduces your voice for your caller. It only does one thing, which is cancel out noise in noisy settings.

AnandTech used to do a nice test in their reviews, where they called another phone to record the call and then spoke into the test phone in front of speakers playing a babble track. They would keep turning up the volume until it was so loud the person doing the test could not hear himself speak. Then they'd post the recording in their review. You could really hear how much better phones with the Audience chip are. Unfortunately, they haven't been doing that in recent reviews (including the 2nd Gen. Moto X), though I've been told at some point they want to do it again.
[X 2014 General] cb474:
Hmm, maybe it was Pocket Now where you saw the comments. I couldn't find anything at TechnoBuffalo. But Pocket Now comments on the noise cancellation:

Anyway, saying it's better than the 1st. Gen Moto X isn't saying much since it was so subpar for noise cancellation. And testing it in front of a air conditioner is also not a good real world test, since cancelling continuous droning noises is about the easiest thing to cancel. The motorcycle is a better test (though they don't explain how loud of a motocycle it was) and, of course, that's where the noise cancellation started to fail. So I find it hard from those comments to tell where the 2nd Gen. Moto X falls in comparison to a phone with the Audience chip or even with Qualcomm's Fluence (since even Fluence is better than the 1st Gen. Moto X).

In fact, looking around at some of Pocket Now's other phone reviews, I can see that their methods for testing call quality and noise cancellation are extremely subjective and inconsistent (making it impossible to compare from one phone to the next). They say some phones have great noise cancellation, which I know are not that good. So I take their comments about the Moto X with an extreme grain of salt. It could be great, but I don't think their review demonstrates this.
[X 2014 General] pseudopsyche:
I've tested it a little when talking to people while driving. I turned up the radio in my car pretty loud while playing music and they said they couldn't hear anything but my voice. After talking for a little bit they said that once in awhile when I wasn't talking they would hear something faint, but only for a moment.

When walking outside when there is a lot of wind, it works well too.
[X 2014 General] Wutang200:
Sorry you're incorrect about the 1st Gen Moto X. It actually has 3 microphones. 2 for noise cancelling and one for talking I'm guessing.

My 1st gen Moto X is amazing when it comes to noise cancellation. So good in fact that I returned my Nexus 5 for this phone as the N5 just didn't work properly at all for cancelling noise and it actually cancelled out my voice so nobody could hear me!!! Had to get around 11 replacements from Google and they finally fully refunded me as they couldn't fix the problem. This is the reason why I'll never buy a phone made by LG!!
[X 2014 General] cb474:
Thanks for the observations. Sounds promising.
[X 2014 General] cb474:
I guess you're right about the three microphones. I didn't realize that. So it's one of the few to have even three microphones, let alone four like the 2nd Gen. Moto X.

In any case, I'm glad you're having a good experience with the noise cancellation on the 1st Gen. Moto X, but as I say above when I tested it for in call noise cancellation, it really was worse than my Nexus 4 and pretty much all other phones I compared it too (except the Nokia Lumia phones which are also bad). It was nowhere neare as good as the Samsung (and other) phones with the Audience chip and not even as good as phones with Qualcomm's Fluence (like my Nexus 4). I'm not saying it didn't do anything, I'm just saying it didn't measure up to other available noise cancellation technologies.

As I also said above, AnandTech does a more objective comparison of noise cancellation (they are really the only site that does this or that is even aware of the different noise cancellation chips and technologies--though sadly they stopped recently and didn't do this test on the 2nd Gen. Moto X). In their test, they call another phone and record the call, while playing a babble track in the background and turning it up progressively until they cannot even hear themselves speaking. Then they post the results. They also found that the noise cancellation on the 1st Gen. Moto X really did not measure up. In fact, as soon as they turn on the babble track you can immediately hear it, before it even gets loud. That's the worst I've seen a phone do in one of their reviews. Maybe it's attenuating the background noise, but it's not blocking it, even when it's not loud. Here's the page of that review that covers noise cancellation: http://www.anandtech.com/show/7235/moto-x-review/5.

I have also read other reviewers making the same observation (more subjectively) about the quality of the noise cancellation on the 1st. Gen Moto X.

So I feel pretty confident, based on objective tests, subjective comments from several reviewers, and my own experience, with my assertion that the noise cancellation on the 1st Gen. Moto X is middle of the road (at best). But, hey, if you're happy with it then think of how great it will be to get a 2nd Gen. Moto X or a phone with the Audience chip (mostly Samsung phones these days).

I agree about LG hardware. I'm not in love with it either and glad that Google seems to be moving on to Motorola for the next Nexus device. It does sound like you just had some bad luck with the Nexus 5 though, I'm not aware of widespread problems with that device like you describe. Most people really love the Nexus 5 and consider the call quality to be adequate. Although I do sort of vaguely recall, when I was testing it, that when I started speaking the noise cancellation would not stop instantly and would sometimes cut off the first half-second of what I was saying (I think that was the Nexus 5, maybe it was a different phone). Perhaps that's the same thing you were experiencing. I can see where they would be annoying.
[X 2014 General] Wutang200:
Yeah I was experiencing similar problems with the Nexus 5 with quite a lot of call drops.

I've now switched to the Moto X 2014 and the noise cancellation is superb again. Even better than last time as I normally have music playing in my car at low volume and my phone still recognises my voice over this. My old Moto X could never understand me over music playing in my car.
[X 2014 General] cb474:
Have you tested the 2nd Gen Moto X for in call noise cancellation? Asked callers how you sound when you're in a loud place?

It does seem like the main reason Motorola has focused so much recently on imporving its noise cancellation is for the always listening voice commands to work better, in the manner you're exeriencing. But I'm really more interested in how much it improves call quality.

Thanks for any more observations.
[X 2014 General] bkfitz:
I've been very happy with the call quality so far... Coming from a Samsung s3
[X 2014 General] Wutang200:
The call quality and noise cancellation engine are probably the best I've ever experienced in my life!
[X 2014 General] cb474:
So you're both saying that you have asked people you're talking to if they can hear background noise, when you're in a noisy place? How noisy was it? What kind of noise was it? What did the callers say? Coudl they hear nothing? Some noise? Do you sound robotic (some noise cancellation gives the quality of your voice a processed electronic quality to it.)

The noise cancellation in calls is entirely for the benefit of the person you're talking to, and not something you would yourself notice during calls. That's what I'm trying to ask about, not call quality in general.

Indeed many phones have great call quality in every respect and seem great to the person using the phone. They may even sound great to the person you're talking to, if you're in a quiet place. But they still have bad noise cancellation and make it hard for the person you're talking with to hear you if you're in a noisy place. So it's only this very specific element I'm asking about.
[X 2014 General] Wutang200:
OK, just to make it clear, I was driving home from work in my Nissan Silvia Spec R (very loud car) yesterday with both my windows down, music on at low volume in the background with lots of traffic around me and my wife could hear me very clearly. She didn't even realise I had set off yet lol.

I had a bit of trouble hearing her though at times mainly due to the noise on my end but she could always hear me clearly without me needing to shout.

Hope that helps!

To be fair my old Moto X was almost as good too in the same conditions.
[X 2014 General] cb474:
Thanks for the further details. Sounds (no pun intended) pretty good.

Of course, I can't condone driving and talking on the phone. ;)
[X 2014 General] Wutang200:
I have a phone holder on my windscreen and have it on loudspeaker mode.
[X 2014 General] cb474:
I know it's hard to persuade people of this, but the studies have pretty definitively shown that it's the cognitive distraction that matters. Hands free phone conversations impair driving just as much as when people are holding the phone. And people who think they are good at it, turn out to be just as impaired as everyone else. Be careful.

But I do appreciate your taking your life in your own hands to report on the noise cancellation. :)

I would be curious if you have any feedback from your callers, when you're in a noisy place and talking on the phone normally, since it sounds like the test you did was in speakerphone mode. It sounds impressive for speakerphone in a noisy car, but I suppose performance could be different using the phone normally. I never like to make assumptions. Thanks.

Noise Cancellation does not work well

I bought a Moto X 2014 few days ago and found it excellent in all other features except the voice quality. The person at the other end is unable to hear my voice clearly. For them my voice seems very distant or quiet. Surprisingly it works well if I am outside in a noisy environment, but if I am at office or in any enclosed quiet environment, the other person cannot hear me. Seems the noise cancellation microphone cancels my voice itself :( For me the other person's voice is very clear though.
