[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kodeen:
I've been toying with the idea of running a pure AOSP rom (likely CM) without using Google services or apps. I'm not a huge fan of the company ATM. On the surface it seemed doable, use apps where needed from loose APK's or maybe even use something like the Amazon store. I've never been a big app user so a limited selection is not really a concern. But one stickler I thought of was location services. After doing some searches, it looks like there are no location services without Google services, which makes sense, someone needs to run the servers. Is that correct? Any way to get around that?

Also, are there any other glaring issues that I'm overlooking that would make a Google-less phone very difficult?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pilz:
Has anyone else had this happen? Mine did and there's a big gap in my battery usage. I'm singing l assuming this will get fixed when they post the factory images considering the N9 has had 4 updates so far.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidguy22:
Happened today while I was on youtube, so far only once. What do you mean of big gap in my battery usage? Did the battery % decreased after the reboot or are you referring to the battery usage graph? On mine the usage graph restarted but the battery % was a continuation..

Mine now does this weird thing where it opens random apps to the setting menu that has the option to force stop, disable and uninstall and keeps flashing and switching between them. I haven't unlocked the BL yet or done anything to the phone, I think its a software bug and hopefully google will release an update soon.

Edit: the random weird thing described above was caused by Greenify so I uninstalled it.

I also just picked one up from Bell (32GB Blue) today and had a random reboot while the phone was sitting on my desk idle. This was moments after tons of updates from the Play store. I read in some threads that doing a factory reset didn't work for most.

I also got a 15MB system update, on stock build LRX21O. Hope this isn't caused by hardware!:eek:

Was hoping the 5.0.1 update would fix this problem, but I'm still getting random reboots and shut downs, at least once a day.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
my reboots are cured. the ondemand governor is broken in stock, and aosp, and has been the cause of the reboots. as soon as the developer of lean kernel fixed the ondemand, no more reboots using lean kernel :)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Radicchio:
So can we be confident that Google/Motorola knows this and will be able to fix shortly? I'm getting closer to getting my phone, but have been reluctant to do so wtih so many having issues with their N6 rebooting. I will be running stock, no rooting or anything.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pilz:
I haven't had a random reboot in a long time that wasn't caused by me messing with things. Then again I haven't used the stock ROM in a while either.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjjcb:
I really need some input here. I'm upgrading with Sprint in a few weeks, and I've been spoiled with the root life on my Galaxy S3 up to now. Wipe, flash, prosper. I was convinced the LG G3 was going to be my next toy, but I'm starting to get spooked by reports of design flaws (maybe isolated) and the fact that unlocking the bootloader and roms are looking difficult.

It seems manufactures must be making it more difficult on devs, because the newer devices are having such a hard time. I can't imagine going back to my pre-rooted days, so now I've been looking into the Note 3. I fully expected that by now there would be a nice choice of stable daily drivers, but all I'm reading here is not encouraging. Rooting seems easier than the G3, but after that it seems the same problems plague the Note 3 - bad battery drain and nonfunctional software glitches.

Am I right, or are there daily drivers that work well that I'm not seeing? If that's the case, I may just go with the G3 and take my chances that roms come eventually. Sprint only has a few legitimate devices to choose from.

Thanks in advance.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Well according to your getvar and the info shown in your bootloader your device is not s-off. Your still s-on so that ruu won't work for you anyway.

So what ever method you used to s-off apparently didn't work. And you need s-off to use that RUU.

However this RUU should work for you with s-on but you will need to relock your bootloader. And make sure you check the md5 of your download with this tool from www.winmd5.com

Correct md5 for this ruu is

5f121d72b8fa3f6f1704588467752605

http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...9_10-26-1718-01l_release_356565_signed_2-exe/

Boot your device to the bootloader and connect fastboot usb. In the command window type

fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot-bootloader

Make sure fastboot usb is connected then launch the ruu.exe on your pc.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Michael Xie:
Thanks a lot, I tried but after I launched the ruu.exe. It always display "htc_fastboot.exe is not working".
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
This is a visual c++ error I believe. Install this on your pc and try the ruu again ;) http://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=29

---------- Post added at 06:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:49 AM ----------

Alternatively you could use this RUU.zip

http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu-zip-m7_ul_jb43_sense50_mr_cingular_us_3-17-502-3-decrypted-zip/

The procedure for flashing is a little more complex though.

Download the ruu.zip and put it in your fastboot folder and rename it to ruu.zip.

Reboot the phone to the bootloader and Connect fastbootusb. Now open your Fastboot command line and type

fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot-bootloader

you can skip this part if your already locked.

fastboot oem rebootRUU

--- case sensitive ---^^^

The phone will reboot to a black screen with a Silver HTC LOGO. This is RUU mode. Now we're going to flash the ruu.

fastboot flash zip ruu.zip

The first flash will be short. It's just a preupdate preparing the hboot for the new firmware. So we need to do the same command again.

fastboot flash zip ruu.zip

The second flash will take a little longer and this time it will flash the full ruu. The progress bar on the phone screen will not reach 100% this is normal as long as the command window has completed its output the flash is done.

fastboot reboot-bootloader
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Michael Xie:
I just installed and tried again. but it says some problem cause the application is not working correct. the htc_fastboot.exe is still not working. Do i need to reboot my system after installation?

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
use the .exe ruu that danny linked above (post #2), you can't use the decrypted ruu.zip (from post #4) with s-on.

Decrypted ruu = not signed by htc private key

s-on = must check htc signature before flashing

s-on + decrypted ruu = signature verification fail.

so with s-on you can only use signed ruu same or higher version

s-off: you can use signed and decrypted ruu, same, higher or lower version.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
What version of Windows are you running on your pc?

Do you have HTC sync installed?

Is your SDK adb/fastboot up to date?

You can also try this ruu.exe http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...3_10-38j-1157-04_release_334235_signed_2-exe/ , I'm not sure it will help with the fastboot error since I think that problem is pc side. But try it maybe the older installer will work with the c++ you installed previously. :good:

This is correct or not?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
You need the phone to boot to a Rom to gain s-off.

If these reboots continue after flashing the ruu was successful there's a good chance your problem is hardware related.

Best option now it to unlock the bootloader and flash a Custom Recovery and Rom. I would also recommend doing a data format before flashing the new Rom to ensure your partitions are free from corruption.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Michael Xie:
So I just wipe cache partition or wipe data/factory reset?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
You should see your phone serial number here. But this will only work if booted into a custom recovery like TWRP.

If you have Stock recovery it would be best to factory reset with that first if you haven't already. Other wise just flash a Custom recovery

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jdeatsch:
apologies for cluttering the place up previously.

To the question:

I bought a used TF201 and it's at 4.4.4 CROMB1 is 11.0-20140930. Kernel is 3.1.10

Best way I can describe the issue is that the screen is flaky. That is, when I attempt, for example, to move an icon from one spot to another it 'dances'. It's difficult to control the position of the icon. Rebooting resolves for a few minutes.

The issue manifests itself in 'settings' also when I scroll up and down on the left side to select something.

Anyone seen this or heard of it? No joy in my search for info on here.

Many thanks up front folks,
