[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acolyte192:
So, I have sent my device to the service to see if I can get a replacement, and guess what? They saw no problem with the device. They just returned it to me after that statement.

Later on, I went to a store and I accidentally saw that they have the M8 on display. I went and checked it out, and, well, it had the same problem as my device. Seems like HTC has some lower quality panel devices shipped to third world countries, or something like that. I might be out of line, of course.

And that's it. There's nothing I can do. I just use my M8 as it is. It's a fantastic device in every other regard (except for the camera, but that works as expected), and the screen issue does annoy me a lot, but I guess I'll just learn to live with it.

Thanks for all your feedback, guys!

Hi,

Is it possible to be on stock android while being rooted and keep getting ota? I was on 4.4.4 and was rooted, and when I got the ota I got an error and would not let me install.

Also, since im on cm11 now, is it possible for me to throw on Franco Kernel? Because I heard you could not use that for some reason.

Thanks.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] fury683:
Being rooted on stock firmware will not prevent OTAs from being pushed to you. It will likely prevent you from installing the updates due to changes to the /system and (probably) /recovery, which it seems like you experienced before on 4.4.4. The OTA will start to install but will have an error and abort when it detects that things are changed in your /system partition.

To get around this, one option is to do a full factory reset to get back to 100% stock (removes root/custom recovery AND user data). Some folks back stuff up by various methods, others just reinstall everything, it's up to you. Take the OTA and then root again with Chainfire Autoroot (CFAR).

You can also flash a stock /system and /recovery only, then take the update. Once you have the update, run CFAR.

Lastly, you can use the Factory Images and go straight to the version you want. I went from 4.4.4 to 5.0 and then from 5.0 to 5.0.1 with factory images and NO DATA LOSS. After downloading the image, unzip and edit the flash-all.bat file to remove the -w flag near the end. This tells the script to wipe the partitions before flashing them. Removing it will prevent the wipe, and preserve all your apps/data. Save the .bat file, put the N7 in bootloader and run the batch file. Once it runs (takes like 1-2 minutes), you can run CFAR to get root back on 5.0/.1.

As for the CM11 Kernel question, I have no idea. Someone else can touch on that.

Edit: also, you don't need to go from 4.4.4 to 5.0 to 5.0.1 with factory images, you can go straight from 4.4.4 to 5.0.1. Since you already flashed CM11, I'm guessing you wiped your data, so I would just use the factory image to 5.0.1 without editing the batch file and get a fresh install from there. The same methods described should work for future updates beyond 5.0.1, root methods pending.

Or you can do what a few of us have done--go to this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/nexus-7-2013/development/rom-factory-stock-rooted-rom-lrx22c-t2960745

Follow the instructions to update your bootloader, make sure you're using TWRP 2.8.1.0 or newer, copy the ROM to your internal storage and flash with TWRP. (I wiped cache and Dalvik before and after flashing, but it apparently isn't necessary.) No data loss, working fine for 3 weeks now.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] ...man:
I checked about your last method, removing the w, and many have said that will mess with your android and you SHOULD NOT do it. Is that true?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] nhizzat:
Removing the "w" forces the install to not wipe. It could cause issues, but it also might not.

Lately, when I connect my Asus P525 to my PC or my laptop to Activesync, the following error message always come out:

"Synchronization cannot be completed successfully. Reconnect your device and try again. If the problem persists, see the Microsoft ActiveSync Troubleshooter in Microsoft ActiveSync Help on your desktop computer."

I have tried to reconnect and soft reset my device and still the error comes out. I have also deleted all partnerships in both the PCs and my device and still same error.

Can anyone help my out on this?
[General Topics] wergeld:
i have the same problem with my tmobile mda. started with activesync 4.1 and even the new 4.5. only way i found to solve this is to completely unistall AS then go the AS directory and delete all the trash left behind in the install (do not delete any app folders in there).

reboot

reinstall AS

reboot

plug in device. yay!

stops working again....rinse and repeat.

yea. its a lame workaround but there you have it.
[General Topics] boybi:
Thanks wergeld, I will try your suggestion ASAP!
[General Topics] boybi:
I tried the above steps to no avail. Did it twice.
[General Topics] wergeld:
try doing a soft reset if you can of the asus then retry. all i know is that activesync is touchy. if you are using a usb connection make sure it is not going through a hub. just straight out the usb port on computer to usb in on the device.

this is something i have run across a lot. even on un-modded rom phones. right now mine is giving up the ghost while installing the "updated usb drivers" sucky. but its one of those things where you just bang on it till it works.
[General Topics] boybi:
Ok, will try again. Thanks.
[General Topics] boybi:
Tried to soft reset the device, uninstalled AS, deleted files in AS folder, reboot, installed AS, reboot, synch, same problem.

hrmm. i am sorry. i am at a loss for this one. i know AS is tricky but i have no other ideas on this. anyone else want to take a shot?

I would like to try to hard reset my device, but since I can't use AS, how can I restore my appointments and contacts after a hard reset?
[General Topics] wergeld:
assuming you had a relationship on your computer before you can re-sync it if you can get AS to work. do not try the hard reset yet.

did some more looking. and found this site: AS 4 FAQ

a helpful one was the fixmapi.exe step.

try all of these first then hard reset as a last resort.

the more i deal with AS the more i look at my SuSE machine with love.

"synchronization could not be completed. Try again later"; "Ondersteuningscode: 8007

OK This is a pain. i've got simmilar problems.

Over the weekend i upgraded to faria wm6 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=297762) which forced my to go to active sync 4.5.

Here the fun starts .....

I have a desktop Medion and a laptop Dell D800. The Desktop is connected to my router via cable and the Laptop via wireless.

On both PC's internet works without problems. Before upgrading i could connect via usb to both machines and sync to my office exchange server.

Now, Activesync over usb connecting to either PC fails with the message:

"synchronization could not be completed. Try again later"

"Ondersteuningscode: 80072f7d"

If however i disable all "exchange synchronisation" items as agenda, tasks etc and limit to say favorites. Then AS completes sussesfully.

To add to the confusion. If i sync using WiFi or GPRS via my QTec directly i can sync just fine to exchange. Pushmail works.

I just cant get it to work via usb which i prefer since WiFi drains the battery and GPRS is expensive.

Solutions tried include:

* Uninstalling AS (both dutch and or Englich)

* Deleting all leftovers files from in the

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft ActiveSync" directory

* Cleaning the registry for leftovers

* Re-installing AS4.5 (both dutch and or Englich)

* removing and restoring sync partnerships

* Running the AS diagnostics (which report NO errors).

* emptying the exchange server files.

cleaning agenda, tasks, adresses, trash,

to have a empty exchange server

(of course i made a backup so i could restore afterwards)

I've googled but found nothing that helps.

I'm at a halt here, anybody any suggestions
[General Topics] Dwimmerlaik:
You didn't mention what Operating System you're running on your computer and whether you're running any firewall software on your computer.

The newer versions of ActiveSync actually establish a network connection to sync. Quite a few of the Firewall programs have issues with this since it creates ports they don't know what to do with. You can avoid firewall problems by adding ActiveSync to the "allowed" programs list. Doing so will enable ActiveSync to create the ports it needs to sync, etc.

What you may be able to do in order to test whether it's your firewall is disable your firewall temporarily and then connect your device to the USB cable and see whether it syncs properly.

If you're running Windows XP SP2, the Windows Firewall is enabled by default and can be disabled by going to Start -> Control Panel -> Security Center and then clicking on the option to "Manage security settings for: Windows Firewall".

I hope this helps.
[General Topics] wergeld:
i am not familiar with exchange server or pushmail so i cannot help there. make sure you reboot each time you uninstall AS.

as for the firewall deal. i do not run one (oh nos!) on my pc that i connect to with AS since i am behind a heavy duty one on my router and i still have connection issues that force me to do the uninstall/reinstall dance. but i have never not been able to solve the issue with the dance.
[General Topics] Arrak1s:
THANKS this is getting ME somewhere i run NOD32 as antivirus on my desktop. If i turn of the IMON (internet monitoring) then sync goes fine.

Since active sync was already registred for maximum compatibility (which did not help) i added the address of my exchange server to the "maximal compatibility" list of servers. This does not help me either. Also disabling all "http protection" does not help.

Off to see what i can do without turning IMON totally off.
[General Topics] boybi:
The site doesn't have the remedy for the error that I have.

I also disabled my Firewall, and still got the same error message.

Now, I would really like to do a hard reset, but don't know how to backup my contacts and appointments.
[General Topics] mbirth:
Got the same problem today. Last successful sync was on March 27th. I deleted all partnerships, repaired my Outlook-db, cleaned all ActiveSync-entries regarding partnerships in the registry of my Universal AND on my PC. I now disabled NOD32's IMON to see whether AS works again after a reboot.

Damn ActiveSync...

Cheers,

-mARKUS

UPDATE: Disabling IMON didn't bring me any further. ActiveSync get's the Universal's name, then comes the "Retrieving settings..." and suddenly it breaks with the stupid "Synchronization cannot be completed successfully..." message.

WCESMgr.log shows following:

So as far as I've read I now have two options: hard-reset my device, reinstall everything and hope it works again -- OR -- uninstall Outlook + AS and reinstall and hope it works. Thank you, Microsoft!

The problem is, I have added a lot of new contact and appointments in my device that is not yet synched with my PC. If I hard reset, all the new data will be gone.

So how can I restore back the new data after a hard reset?

Help! .
[General Topics] oh_do_shutup:
I have encountered this problem before as well. I am still having not luck with trying to connect my vario II to my pc. It charges, but isn't detected at all. I have soft reset it multiple times, hard reset it, nothing works.

Anyway, in answer to your question, a method I used to backup my information was by using a microsoft exchange server and active sync. Usually exchange servers are owned by businesses or cost money to rent but a site called mail2web allow you to do it for free. http://www.mail2web.com/

Set up a new free mail2web live account, then go to help, log in and click on "mail2web live" under "active services". Click on "active sync settings".

Now go to your phone, open up activesync, go to menu and add server source.

Enter the server name, username and domain that appear on the website and your password. It should then sync with the mail2web server. To do this, it will need a connection to the internet via gprs or wifi.

When its finished, you should be able to view all your information online when you log into you mail2web live account.

I hope this helps

Thanks a lot oh_do_shutup! You've been a great help! Now I won't be worried if my PPC fouls up.

Now, one more thing, how can I backup my SMSes then restore them back to my device after performing a hard reset? I use Jeyo Mobile, but since I can't ActiveSync, Jeyo Mobile is useless.
[General Topics] boybi:
Until now, I still can't sync my device via ActiveSync. I almost did a hard reset and then I noticed that mail2web doesn't store the Radio field in the contacts. I've got a lot of phone numbers put under the radio (rdo) field.

Am I the only one experiencing this problem with ActiveSync?!?!?
[General Topics] drutort:
nope, and i think MS should fix this... this is driving me insane!! im beginging to regret having a PocketPC now.... its been more pain in ass then anything else... and for what? could we at least have the basic **** work right? like the PHONE!!!! why are things so lame... why are there no other programs out there that are like activesync... ms needs to open the code from this program... if this was open source all this stuff would be fixed in weeks
[General Topics] drutort:
well i guess a hard reset is the only option, there is no way to go back to 4.2 because of wm6

i have deleted all traces of activesync on desktop, i even installed activesync on a laptop that never had it installed and same issue came up... so its something that screws up the device files/registry that is causing this.... that regardless what you do on the PC it will give you that error

for hte love of god!! someone make a app that removes all traces of activesync on PC and pocketPC!!! this is sooo needed

Activesync stops

I have been fighting with ActiveSync for some time with different WM5 and WM6 Roms.

When I flash the Rom to my Wizard everything works fine, but then after some unpredicted time ActiveSync stops to get contact with the PC.

The device is seen by the PC, but Activesync just does not work.

I thought the only reason can be some 3rd party application, so I did run the

latest Rom, Crossbow_Reloaded_1.7.1_Final.zip without any 3rd party apps, just syncing normally to my outlook.

And it did the same thing, even pretty soon.

Then I finally realised it was the overclocking, which is my bad habbit immediately after flashing. I did put the Activesync to the Omap list, 195, and it miraculously came back and seems to be working fine.

I know this it not the solution to most of the problems here, but I thaught it´s good to share in case someone else is keen on overlocking.
[General Topics] hotschko:
Just in case this helps

By my experience no hard reset is necesary.

Go to -> Setings -> Conections -> USB to PC -> uncheck "Enable advanced network functionality" and voila ...

I had the same problem in both WM5 and WM6 and this setting helped in both cases.

Nothing is working. Please help!

Hey everybody I'm still having the same problem with connecting to activesync. It gives me the same thing as the first post: "Synchronization cannot be competed successfully. Reconnect your device and try again, and so forth." I tried everything from this forum to the one on ppcgeeks.com. I have a Sprint 6700 just upgraded to Helmi's WM6. I swear ever since I did the upgrade I've been having problems with syncing my device. I tried the uninstalled and installed. Upgraded to the new version and back to the old, and than back again to the new version of activesync. I did the unchecked and checked "Enabled advanced network functionality." I did the whole roboot thing, deleted mobile devices and so forth. Still nothing! I do not want to hard reset my device. I love WM6. Anybody just anybody who had the same problem, please share what you have learned and how you solved the problem. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hard Reset works!

Ok I got tired of following everyones instruction with none of them working I finally did a hard reset and it syncs fine now. I had all my contacts etc in outlook so I didn't lose any important info. I had to reinstall my third party apps but thats okay I can live with that. If anyone figured out how to do it without hard resetting the device please share just in case this happens again. Oh yeah don't forget to delete all partnerships before reconnecting after the hard reset.

Hello Dev

Maybe I was too tired If I have to read entire post here to see if there is someone post a problems match with mind. ( I am sorry ). No one match with my cases.

My phone has been root.

My problem is I bricked my phone after flashing cwm from a similiar phone, because I need cwm to make nandroid backup.

My stock cwm can not make nandroid backup. It's only backup data and system only.

Tried using online nandroid and the result is I have no boot and recovery image.

So I search all of thread from all android community but none of there discussion my phone.

And then I found very similiar phone named is Hisense EG970, my phone is Esia Andromaxx-D( also called as Esia Maxpic). Both is have same spec like this :

RAM 1GB

ROM 4GB

OS Android 4.1

CPU Qualcomm MSM8625Q, 1.2GHz

OS android 4.1.2

Kernel Version 3.4.0-perf-g197915f-00004-ga4b8a8f ccadmin@BUILD12

MY stock Rom is same as K Touch Lotus 2

I found hisense EG970 thread( Chinesse forum) about cwm recovery for their phone. Because I think this is the same with mind so I flashed their cwm.

I don't know I am stupid or not but after that my phone brick. (Hard Brick). Three combination button not effect anymore and my PC never detect it again. I tried to connect it with original usb cable without battery while pushing vol + and - together and insert battery but still not appears anymore in my Windows 7 PC. ( NO THREE FINGERS WORK,CAN'T ENTER BOOTLOADER MODE ALSO CAN'T ENTER RECOVERY MODE, NO PC DETECTED)

I am sorry for long explanation.

So I need your help, anyone here.

Can I get my stock cwm back?

very grateful if someone would help me, thanks in advance
[XDA Assist] Perseus:
You can not flash Recovery for another device. Period. You will need to flash stock firmware for your device in order to make it operational again.

Please post in [Ask Any Question][Newbie Friendly] so that one of the experts may be of help.
[XDA Assist] nubikom:
Glad here your reply Mr Perseus, and yes you are right, I should not sloppy like this by flashing another device recovery to my device.

I had a post there [Ask Any Question][Newbie Friendly] but no one knows how the solution.

And I am in bad situations cause I have no stock also my backup is not valid to flash said flash gordon tool

One think I have to do now is JTAG my device maybe

Do you have any advise for me?
[XDA Assist] Perseus:
Reach out to the Manufacturer. See if they can provide original firmware of your device that can be flashed again. If that's not an option then JTAG it is.

[Samsung Galaxy Light Questions & Answers] Planterz:
Which TWRP did you flash? Did you flash T-Mobile firmware? I need to know EXACTLY what you did.
[Samsung Galaxy Light Questions & Answers] themilkboy08:
Ok

I used twrp 2.7.0.0-gardaltetmo.tar. The flashed a supers u update -v 1.94.zip, then I wanted to know how to unroot incase I needed to know and used SGH-t399-stock-MJA.ZIP
[Samsung Galaxy Light Questions & Answers] Planterz:
Don't use T-Mobiles firmware on your MetroPCS phone.

This is what you need to do.

And for the love of all that is good in this world, next time DO A BACKUP before flashing things. You installed TWRP, which gives you the ability to make a complete backup of your system exactly as it is at that point in time. If you had done a back-up before you screwed up your phone, it would have taken you but a few minutes to unscrew it.

I apologize for being harsh, but it seems to me like you really need to read and research a lot more. I always (well, usually...almost bricked my tablet the other day) read everything I can find about something potentially risky before doing it. Let this be a learning experience for you. Read as much as you can, understand what it is you are actually doing rather than just following some guide, and if you don't understand, just ask. I and most of us here would rather you asked a noobish question instead of going blindly ahead and screwing your phone up. Playing around with root and recovery and flashing without understanding it is like thinking you can perform open heart surgery with a meat cleaver because you've seen every episode of ER, Scrubs, and Grey's Anatomy.

Hm. I didn't think about that. I think you might need to get an SD card. Go on Amazon or eBay and pick one up. An 8GB one can be had for literally a few bucks, but a 64GB class 10 one for $35 is an awesome thing too.
