[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] venki5star:
Hi,

I am having Unlocked (Unbranded) M8 bought in Australia. I am thinking about converting it to GPE. I am reading posts here people asking about Telstra radio or Optus radio as after conversion, they could find the service or data. Possiblity is, they might be having locked M8.

To understand it clear, should I have to worry about this? If something goes wrong, it there any rescue mission, I can perform?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jball:
Are you S-OFF already?

Pull your radio first so you have it to flash when you finish the conversion. A fully unlocked phone is easy to brake or it is easy to recover depending on lack of research or the right research. If something isn't clear than don't try it and always make a backup(however if you convert to GPE a sense backup would be useless until a full "back to sense" conversion is performed).
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] venki5star:
I haven't started the conversion yet. I used to root my S4 and it been like 6 months. But M8, I am confused that some says, S-Off required and some says S-Off not required.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pagoweb:
You certainly have to be s-off to perform a conversion to GPE.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] venki5star:
One more question, will I get OTA even after S-Off?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pagoweb:
if you stay pure stock and have the matching CID(GOOGL001) and MID (06PB17000) => yes

EDIT : as [MENTION=4425542]jball[/MENTION] stated returning from GPE to Sense is more difficult than converting sense to GPE. and for safety, save (dump) your current radio image and write down your current CID/MID.

EDIT 2 : if your current m8 variant (cf. fastboot getvar m8_product) is not m8_ul, you may experiment some hardaware incompatility bugs
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] venki5star:
I am scared now! Firewater is disconnected. All the instructions I found to convert to GPE is pretty old (mostly June 2014). Lots of the thinks are changed. I am not sure about Sunshine though.

I don't want to go to Sense as long as I do GPE conversation without any problem.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pagoweb:
Firewater is dead... There's only sunshine to s-off. Try it (it will tell you if you can s-off before payment).

i did gpe conversion two weeks ago (thread op has been updated with GPE RUU 5.0.1).

This worked well for me (wwe european m8_ul).
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jball:
Sunshine is an apk/app that you download,install and open .it's super simple after you accept payment type it only takes about 5 minutes.

No fastboot commands ,no

PC/Desktop needed as far as S-OFF using sunshine

After you gain S-OFF than follow below link and read it over and over

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2708589

Make sure you have full read/write access to the external sdcard .

I'm currently fully converted and updated to 5.0.1 lollipop using above method
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] venki5star:
Seems like I have M8_UL variant (as I bought this in Australia based on reference from here http://droider.eu/2014/09/20/htc-one-m8-models/)

I will try Sunshine to check if I can S-off. But 1 license for 25$ is expensive.

Thanks for the help
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jball:
Sunshine has been worth it ever since I did it.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] venki5star:
Do I need to be rooted? Sunshine compatibility check asking me to root before running tests.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] venki5star:
Quick question: Are you able to play music with Google Play Music? I am getting "Couldn't play the track you requested" very frequently and it stops playing.

1. My tracks are in SD card (64GB)

2. I was playing in Bluetooth

3. I also tried Player Pro. It skips to next song while playing the song.

4. ES File Explorer's Music player plays the songs without any problem.

Any suggestions?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jball:
I would have to download some music to test.I currently don't listen to music much

That would be helpful
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pagoweb:
stock rom ?

if so, try disabling nuplayer in dev options.

my other guess is bluetooth (try playing music disabling it)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] venki5star:
nuplayer option still has the problem. If the bluetooth is the problem , it should be problem in any player right? Its works with ES Music Player(comes with ES File Browser). I will trying headphone and update the thread.

[Asus ZenWatch] adiror:
Hi,

I've been on 5.0.1 since yesterday. Didn't have any issues with battery before, and now it seems even better.

However, wishing to be fully optimized, I see on the new battery usage option, that besides the 'screen', next in line of battery consumption are 'UP' and 'Wellness'.

Any way to get rid of them, or at least stop them from running?

Thanks
[Asus ZenWatch] Hvdm57:
Hi, you can disconnected UP from receiving data, but not remove the program on the watch, as fare as I know.

WELNESS I have the same problem. I want get rid of that too?
[Asus ZenWatch] CSX321:
What about using:

adb shell pm disable [I]package_name[/I]

I found conflicting information on whether root is required for that. And of course we'd have to figure out what the package names are.
[Asus ZenWatch] z3nful:
Easiest way i can think of to get the package names would be to run "adb shell top", then scan through the processes until you see the one that your looking for. if they're not listed, just open them on the watch and they should pop up :)
[Asus ZenWatch] CSX321:
Well, it looks like the package manager (pm) does require root.

Edit...Oh, and you can get the package names with:

adb shell pm list packages

I was able to uninstall the Amazon app with a simple:

adb uninstall com.amazon.mShop.android

since that was just installed by the Amazon app on the phone.

But trying:

adb uninstall com.jawbone.upopen

results in:

Failure [DELETE_FAILED_INTERNAL_ERROR]

I'm sure we'll get this thing rooted soon, and then it should be an easy matter to disable or delete any of the pre-installed apps.
[Asus ZenWatch] adiror:
Thanks for the responders above, looks like we'll have to wait
[Asus ZenWatch] frontalot:
I'd like to get rid of this garbage too. Let me know if you figure it out...
[Asus ZenWatch] dbaybay:
Would also like to get rid of these, I do not use my watch for fitness related stuff and the Wellness app just doesn't even work right. Don't even get me started on the stress level -_-
[Asus ZenWatch] tgtoys:
Disable apps?

So if we can't delete them because we need root, can we disable them? Like using the disable function in application manager...would that work through ADB without root?

I'm in the same boat..can't stand having 3 fitness apps installed (fit, wellness, up) and I do not use my watch with ANY of them! Between battery and overall responsiveness, you can't tell me that having all 3 of these running don't have any effect.
[Asus ZenWatch] androidxen:
It would be awesome if we can figure out how to uninstall unwanted wear-only apps. Seems like a first generation kind of flaw that'll only get better.

Unpacking boot.img

Add this line to boot option

Repack boot.img

Flash modded boot.img

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArnWalden:
Hi everyone,

I updated my G3 to lollipop today using LG PC Suite since I received OTA notification, my G3 was rooted with KitKat running on it with a custom recovery (TWRP) but that was a bad idea because I lost my custom recovery and now some apps don't work properly. I should have flashed the lollipop rom using TWRP instead of updating my G3 using LG software, but now I'd like to get back to KitKat.

Is there a way to do this ? I know I have to downgrade my baseband etc but I can't find a way to do this.

Thanks in advance

AW
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kirckete:
I fixed with this guide from:

lg-phones

.org

/ how-to-fix-lg-g3-twrp-stuck-after-installing-10l-ota-update .html

Did you install TWRP Recovery and then install the latest V10L OTA on LG G3 D855 , now you can’t get your phone to boot normally, but you do see TWRP?

Here’s the easy fix:

If you have ADB access, plug in your phone and run this:

adb shell

dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota of=/sdcard/fota-backup.img

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota

Then you should be able to successfully reboot your phone via the TWRP menu option, or via a simple reboot command in adb.

If you DONT have ADB access (because of an early build of TWRP), you can simply use TWRP’s awesome "terminal command" option to run the following:

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota

You’ll have to type that whole thing out, and be VERY careful with spaces and punctuation. One wrong letter and you could nuke your phone.

After that finishes, you can reboot and continue on your happy way!
[Samsung Gear S] redram38:
Two issues I am having. The first is my steps showing on the watch are not in sync with the phone (Note 4 verizon). The other issue I was having is the voice mail on the phone no longer worked. I could only access voice mail by dialing the voice mail number on the phone or watch. I un-installed and re-installed the gear software and it seems to have fixed the voice mail. I tried un-checking the voice mail in the notification settings on the watch but still had to reset everything. Any know issues with steps in s health not syncing correctly ?

[HTC One X] rodriciru:
Hi.

Im spanish, so my english is not perfect. Sorry about that.

Well i wil explain my problem.

I have an HTC One X, which one day,recived an "cachi" of water. (Cachi is an spanish type of glass for partys, about a liter)

The phone wont start in normal mode.Only starts in fastboot(VOL- + POWER) if are plug into wall charger (if i plug into pc, wont start at all)

The screen is working, but not the led from the screen, so if i want to see if thers something into the screen i have to use a torch light.

Next problem is i wont start into recovery (displays an triangle whit an exclamation insde in red), but i can start in fastboot sometimes.

But here´s another problem, it doesen´t have battery. I check whit fastboot the battery voltage and shows 47mv, yes 47mv.

So i try to charge whit an script, but its impossible because if i try to restart into bootloader pluged into pc, dont start and only shows windows searching for drivers every 5 seconds, because i think it disconected and conected itself every 5 second, so it fails at the time of install drivers.

Any solutions.Please!!

Thanks in advance

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] motoridersd:
I feel like a noob asking this question, but I can't figure out why this is happening.

I like to have my phone on vibrate all the time, especially in the car. Since I'm used to it always being on vibrate, I never check to make sure it's muted when I go into a meeting, work, or car. I just got my XT1095 last night and I have been surprised several times now by loud notifications.

The phone is going back to a 3/4 volume setting without me changing it. What is changing this for me? It has happened after disconnecting from the car BT, or after connecting to it (or maybe it's enabled after car mode is detected?).
