[Verizon HTC One (M8)] PsiPhiDan:
Well yeah, for an official HTC ROM. But what about AOSP ROMs? That will almost inevitably be sooner than that.

I believe I saw that CM plans to have a release out by December.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] just lou:
Actually "within 90 days". It could be next week or February.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] courageousrobot:
HTC might come out with an update within 90 days, there's still a wait for Verizon to approve (not that that really matters for us).

We'll be seeing 5.0 before that though, as the GPE images will be rolling out much sooner.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] xsteven77x:
From the articles I have read over the last few weeks it has the GPE devices getting it on par or after the regular m8.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] courageousrobot:
Yeah, lets ignore the HTC exec I linked to saying, specifically, that the GPE will get it before the standard M8.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] just lou:
GPE may get it next week.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] arjun90:
I've come across many posts stating that the bootloader in the Note 4 AT&T variant may be locked. Is there a way to put in a unlocked bootloader in case one wants to proceed towards rooting the device? I know Lollipop is expected to be a new day in age for the Android Community, but I'm sure the XDA community would still be able to work something out. :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] JasonJoel:
No, that is not currently possible. Phone is neither able to be bootloader unlocked nor rooted at this time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] arjun90:
Yikes, will it be able to be bootloader unlocked or rooted in the near future?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] JasonJoel:
People are working on it, but no guarantees. It is very possible that root may be found, but not a bootloader unlock.

Although it is also possible neither are achieved.

No one knows.

The moral of the story is that if you 'need' root, you should never buy a phone until AFTER it is rooted... Root is NOT guaranteed on new Samsung phones anymore - getting very locked down.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] arjun90:
What about the International Versions like the SM-910U?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] brittoking:
They have root and twrp custom recovery because they aren't locked down like Verizon and Att are.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] arjun90:
Silly question, but doesn't this have a negative impact on the AT&T variant Note 4's resale value?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] JasonJoel:
Not really. 99% of people don't give a crap (or even know about) root or locked bootloaders.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uicnren:
Anyone else?

Every game I have tried playing, causes the player to reboot spontaneously. No single thing seems to trigger it, just reboots at some random point while playing games. Using the Asus controller.

Everything else seems to be smooth.

Games tried:

Badlands

Riptide 2

Minion Rush

Sky Force 2014

BombSquad

Hungry Shark Evolution

Beach Buggy Racing
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Benjamin06:
indeed

Hi.

Yes I have the same problem. Clearing the data worked for beachbuggy and bombsquad the first time i ran into this issue. Yesterday, bombsquad crashed no matter how many times I cleared data or uninstall/reinstall.

I'm trying to find out where to report this to google.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jyveafk:
Crazy thing, but is the power plug /really/ jammed in deep and something put on the cable to make sure it doesn't wiggle loose?
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uicnren:
I tried using online chat from the nexus troubleshooting page, but it never loads.

I have also used adb/fastboot to re-install the factory image, it didnt help.

May try using the call option on troubleshooting page when I have more time.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uicnren:
Well, in a word, no, its not the power cord.

I could understand if it happened at just any random time, but it happens only when playing a game.

I can stream movies for hours at a time using plex, stream music, etc. never reboots. Play a game, and it can happen within a second, or 5 minutes, but only when playing a game.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmtbandit:
Having same problem. Please let me know of you figure anything out.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uicnren:
well new factory image out, flashed just now...

LRX21V

and it still crashes.....

/me sighs
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elrondolio:
Same issues here... random reboots during gameplay.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmtbandit:
I called google, had a new one sent and it works great.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benjr06:
I also called google. they are shipping me a new one as well.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uicnren:
Thank you both for reporting, I finally have time and am requesting a call from them now as well.

Glad to hear it is working, its is extremely frustrating trying to use it now.

Well 45 minutes later on phone, I got RMA, just waiting on new one to arrive now. Says it leaves on the 25th, hope it is sooner.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uicnren:
Just to follow up, replacement arrived today.

So far not a single game crash. Also not had the audio drop-outs yet either.

Plex still will freeze on some movies however. I suspect this is more plex's problem as opposed to the player itself.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elrondolio:
Mine still crashes in games quite a bit. I'd be interested in your experience over the next week or so, specially if it indeed has stopped crashing in games over the mid-term. Thanks for the updates.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dongdong:
Hi, is your crash before RMA or after RMA?

I am facing crashes and reboot issues on Nexus Player, while playing Asphalt 8 and Air Race.

Still contemplating if I should RMA or wait for OTA software updates which may or may not resolve the issues.

For those who have RMA, did the help desk say it's a hardware or software problem?

Seems to be memory overflow issue, the 1GB ram is overloded, causing some memory leakage, and as a result the unit rebooted?
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elrondolio:
I haven't RMA'd... some other gentlemen above have, however. I'll be waiting for the next update and see if that fixes things as games are not my priority with the box, streaming from my nas and the net is. For those purposes, my NP is solid.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dongdong:
Thanks for the reply. I read from other forums that Lollipop has a reboot apps bug due to memory management. keeping my fingers crossed that the next software update will solve the games rebooting issue too.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmtbandit:
They didn't say what the bug was, but I can tell you my new one is flawless
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uicnren:
I will second that. My RMA'd unit has yet to reboot while playing games, or at all for that matter.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsemler:
I was also getting spontaneous reboot and audio dropout. Problem was solved by getting a replacement unit. Could hardly start a game of Asphalt 8 or play it more than a few seconds without it rebooting.

There is definitely a pattern here - that some units are marginal.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssbean:
I've been having the same problem with the following games:

Asphalt 8

Beach Buggy Racing

Sky Force 2014 TV

God of Light TV

Games that I haven't had a problem with:

Badland

Bike Rivals

Called Google today and talked to a rep who hadn't heard of this issue before, but said it sounded like an issue with the apps and suggested I contact the developers. After reading about the RMA success stories, I'll be calling back tomorrow and pushing for RMA.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssbean:
Update after RMA

Got a new device today. Not a single problem with a reboot with any of the apps I mentioned previously. RMA fixed the issue for me.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dongdong:
Do you need to return the unit first before they RMA?
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eagles5:
Ugh, this EXACT problem was happening for me. I RMA'd my first unit. Got the second unit a few nights back. Games still crash. I really don't want to do another RMA.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] etnpnys:
I was having issues with sound cutting out during Pandora and mine was crashing/rebooting while playing games so often I couldn't even get past the tutorial in Modern Combat 5. Asphalt 8 also had some weird issues in between levels, and several of the games you posted rebooted my NP.

I RMA'ed the unit, got the new one last night :fingers-crossed: and I haven't heard any audio issues all morning (Pandora). I was also able to get about 15 minutes into Modern Combat 5 :good: ...before it rebooted. :(
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eagles5:
Bummer. Yeah I just did another Rma after Google play support couldn't fix it. Third times a charm?
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] etnpnys:
Lol Maybe! But seriously, these issues need to be fixed BEFORE they send a device out into the wild. Nobody should have to RMA the thing unless is shows up physically broken. There's no moving parts in this thing, for crying out loud their QA process needs to be better on this thing.

Third Rma worked. All games play thus far. No crashes. And I see less frame drop and stutters in plex. Definitely wasn't a hardware problem.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dongdong:
Hmm software version in your new rma is still the same? I am hesitant to rma now as I have to pay for shipping all the way back to USA.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zycamaniac:
I'm just ripping my google call back rep another couple new assholes here...

I pre-ordered Nexus Player + game pad as soon as it was available in Canada... I didn't play much game at the time, so I didn't see any reset problems during the first few month, plus we were renovating, and that's not making it easy to interact with TV.

The rep is making bold face lies with absurd claim of "There's no major bug in Android TV"... Errr... Absolutely no one can guarantee that on a system this complex, there CAN be major bugs, likely just undiscovered.

And another classic is "it's a compatibility problem, when it is drawing complex graphics it can crash"... Errr... The system is not designed like that. If it crashes just because a game request a complex scene to be drawn, then we have a major problem. Just send GPU an impossibly complex graphics scene and crash the system, this is so much more fun than buffer overflow! Then he goes on to use his windows computer as example, saying the game crashes because it is not compatible with his econobox windows machine (internal graphics).

My own diagnosis of the problem is likely due to power supply design. It crashes a lot more readily if I have an OTG device plugged in, basically crashes about every one or two games in Sky Force Anniversary. If I don't have it plugged in, it crashes about once every 5 to 10 games. Cooling doesn't appear to be an issue, as my unit is now topped with a P4 heatsink, not much through the plastic shell, but should be the coolest Nexus Player with the shell on. I'm guessing intense 3D gaming might have triggered some kind of power protection or heat up and cause a voltage drop, and when it drops too much (or the protection circuit heats up too much and trigger a cut-off), it resets.

I'm still on the phone fighting now, I'm getting a feeling that this guy believes anything his boss or his training tells him, there's not a single shred of doubt in Android TV couldn't have a major bug. The last time I talked to someone this bold is when I talked to HTC service rep in China. "All our packages are perfect, there couldn't be any box out there with a missing part!"...

Ah well, fight on, I'll report back how much time is logged when the call is finished.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dongdong:
Have you updated to the new 5.1 lollipop?
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zycamaniac:
Yup, crashes beautifully on the clock when I'm doing a particularly fine round of Sky Force Anniversary.

It crashes in Sky force anniversary:

Before update

After update

after factory reset and with Sky Force Anniversary being the only game installed.

I check the power plugs, they are all tight, no kinks in the cable, the DC plug itself is shiny with fresh nickel plating, no dirt or grime on it, the power adapter/wart itself felt a little on the warm side, but nothing to indicate a massive overheat.

---------- Post added at 10:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:14 AM ----------

Yes, I'm still on the phone.

---------- Post added at 07:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:15 PM ----------

Finally done with the call... 100 minutes and 40 seconds, including the survey. Hopefully the replacement will fix it.

Did anyone notice the replacement unit to be any different than the original?? Like thicker power cable, bigger adapter? (The one I have now is 12V 1.5A)

Now I'll go mow a bit more lawn before daylight is completely out.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dongdong:
Thanks, will go home and try sky force anniversary. My unit also had crashes prior to the update.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zycamaniac:
Play it like you don't have anything else to play, and had been abstaining from gaming for 10 years... ;)

Brainless games like this and Star Horizon are meant for people to blow off steam, relax, and let reflex take over, let the rest of the brain go into shut-down mode. With the crashes, it was driving me nuts, more stress playing the game than not... :(

BTW, anyone using Kodi? I find it wonderfully replaces pretty much all my video playback app, give me more Anime than I can shake a stick at, and loads RMVB videos from my NAS without a hitch... Hell, this is something I'd pay for, but not to those individuals putting up their version of Kodi/XMBC for sale. ;)
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dongdong:
I am using xmbc modified kodi, playing ok. But pop corn time still gives me issue with lolipop 5.1, video will crash, not sure due to poor streaming or nexus player forced shutdown.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zycamaniac:
Isn't XBMC just got renamed to Kodi? I don't quite understand the XBMC modified Kodi part
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dongdong:
Sorry my bad. Should be modified kodi.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] etnpnys:
No physically noticeable differences. But my replacement unit definitely crashes *less*. Yes: less. Only one reboot maybe every other week now, whereas my original unit would reboot after playing a game for only 5 minutes.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zycamaniac:
I just got my replacement unit, after upgrading to 5.1 and installing all the craps I had on it, I played beach buggy and sky force anniversary for about half an hour. I tried to play the more complex stages, trying to see if it can cause any reboot, none happened.

One think I found is that the replacement unit is MUCH cooler than the original unit, which got extremely hot if I had been doing the same thing on it. It only got slightly warm.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] philhachey:
I had reboot issues when I first got mine too... When I would play mc5 it would give me about 30-45 min of multiplayer at a time then reboot (I called it the happy wife feature). So I figured out that if I wrapped it in a magic bag (a reusable cloth ice bag filled with popcorn) it would last until that got warm.

Strangely enough the problem just stopped on its own???? Seriously. I had tried out lollyrock and it still had the issue. But then it just stopped happening. I have since updated to stock 5.1 and I'm still not having any problems so..... Idk wtf the problem was.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zecov:
i just started playing games on it and its keep rebooting when i'm playing heavily graphic dependent games like bombsquad or sky force. im on a android 6.0. any solution to this because i have no possibility to return my unit.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] etnpnys:
Bummer, right? I hate this. I have one that has issues and another that is pretty solid.

Your option may be to just keep buying more, one at a time on Craigs List or something for cheap, and then when you find one that works properly you sell yours. That's all I can really think of without the option to return. Maybe raise a huge stink with Google also?

i have rooted and flashed my phone and was successfully running custom roms on it,

But flashed cwm 6.0.2.8 initially but later i changed it to 6.0.3.3 and installed xperia HD rom. and

i have a problem in charging my phone. due to loss of tracks. and when i got it repaired. and tried to swithch on my mobile its taking me to recovery mode and if i install any of rom and reboot its again coming back to recovery mode.

Please help how to degrade to older version of CWM
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] houngyai:
So, I bought a cheap non-branded chinese android smartphone. The handset was full of useless pre-installed apps and I just cleaned them out. I rooted the phone with the VRoot tool and it looked like everything goes well, untill I made a factory reset. I installed a new launcher, of course to the /system/app/ folder and it worked with it. The phone has some kind of startup setup (like the iPhones) which comes up after the reset, before the launcher could start. In this procedure, the last step is to tap on an android logo to begin using the phone. So for now, even if I tap it for a houndred of times, the thing won't start, it sticks in this setting window. I pretty much think, this happens because of the new launcher, because the app is probably looking for the old one. Now I am in the deep sh***t.

The followings are known:

- I can't use ADB to repair it, because the factory reset automatically unchecks the USB debugging.

- No firmware or recovery backup available to reflash the handset. The phone has a qualcomm MSM7225 CPU.

- I have the factory apps.

- The phone has factory recovery, so I can't install custom backup.

- I can enter in fastboot mode.

I think, this is all I know. Anyone has some advice to repair it?

Thanks is advance.

Hi,

Need some help.

I just upgraded to CM 11.0-XNPH44S.

Now after doing that my root gone so do I need to unlock the bootloader again and reroot it or reroot alone is possible.

Unlocking the bootloader means wiping out the phone to factory settings and I'll lose many data in doing that.

Plz help me out.

PS : Can anyone provide the link for OPO Toolkit v2.0 coz mediafire.com link provided in actual post doesn't work and every post on web directs to that link only.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
First off, you don't need a toolkit, so don't bother. You don't need to unlock the bootloader again, it doesn't relock unless you lock it yourself. All you need to do is flash the sorts zip in TWRP and you'll have root again.
