[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billyboy77:
My last phone was a stock HTC which I converted to GPE. I got fed up with the phone and tried to revert to stock, but messed up. While HTC fix that one I'm trying to update this replacement... getting a bit fed up with non stock HTC phones now to say the least!

Will changing my CID to something like HTC__001 and rebooting risk bricking the phone?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ikeny:
My HTC M8 also has S-off, and I have no problem changing the cid to whatever I want with the toolkit on xda.

Running OTA updates, on the other hand, is more risky to me since I didn't know the history of my device. I chose to flash a nandroid backup via TWRP. (No RUU published from my carrier). Then I re-rooted the stock rom, retuned back to stock recovery, removed the "modified/tampered" status, and locked the boot loader. I left the S-off status, which is the only non-stock.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billyboy77:
The guy that sold me the phone suggested I flash this RUU to the phone. It appears to be a Brighstar US RUU... which just confuses me even more.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ikeny:
What did you ask from the seller? Was it just something "stock and unlocked"? The US rom quote was definitely stock. (Sim) unlocked or not is independent of the rom. Your phone could be locked/unlocked regardless of the rom you use.

All unmodified version from HTC are stock, including GPE. You need to first decide which carrier you want your phone to be "stock" for.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billyboy77:
I've just spoken to someone in HTC USA Customer services - the phone is formerly an AT&T contract phone. She told me that I'm better off returning the phone to the seller if I want regular OTA updates.

So either send it back and be without phone for a week or so, or try and return it to factory stock myself. Tricky one. :(
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billyboy77:
OK so in theory, I could change the CID to Three UK, and find a Three UK RUU and convert the phone into a stock unlocked three UK one that works with my sim...?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billyboy77:
It looks like my best/safest option is installing the Developer edition RUU - but I am on a mac. Does anyone have the correct Zip file of this?

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ikeny:
I don't think the ROM update exe will run in Mac. You'll need to find a Windows pc for this, or try virtual machine running Windows on your mac.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ampicillin:
If you ordered it from Mainland region then most sellers do S Off there even if the phone is new but if you wanted S On you could have talked to the seller. It's trend over there before getting a new android phone almost 90% sellers sells S OFF and Rooted new devices in almost all major Smartphone brands.

Edit: Yes, M8_UL_CA is definitely (AT&T) What country do you belong to? If you're based in the US then just run official HTC AT&T RUU and you will be able to get OTA updates in the near future.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xunholyx:
Actually, it is AT&T, T-Mob, plus Telus and Rogers (Canada, I'm on Telus).

I see he is unbranded(?) now. The first answer was assuming.
[MENTION=6272849]billyboy77[/MENTION] Your radio version is WWE. Sorry I didn't notice that before.

Download the International WWE RUU here.

You will be able to flash this to get to stock since you are S Off and superCID. It will bring you up to the latest firmware. No need for OTAs. Back up anything that is important to you before running the RUU, because it will wipe your device.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BerndM14:
hm... Seems like you guys are really trying your hardest to make this more difficult than it needs to be. Having S-OFF he can practically make his device any device he wants it to be, T-Mobile, AT&T, Unlocked, Developer Edition, surely any GSM based carrier/unlocked version.

What's the problem? Unlock Bootloader, Get a custom recovery, Get Root, Change your MID to the one you want, Change your CID to the one you want, Restore a backup for the one you chose, run OTA's...

"OMG I'm S-OFF and bought unlocked but I can't get OTA's because my phone WAS an AT&T and I'm not on AT&T I'm on Three"

After what happened with my last phone, I'd rather not muck about with unlocking, rooting or any of that balls. Just a stock OS with regular updates will do me just fine (until the new HTC comes out anyway)

I use this app to record all calls. I use it a few years.

Lately, I've restored my phone to factory settings and afterwards the recordings are all failed.
[General Topics] Rickyzx:
After reset your factory setting your phone will work like a new phone. So, all your apps will get uninstalled and you have to install them again. You can search on your SD card. You may find those recording files.
[General Topics] roeylee:
The problem is with NEW recordings that can't be done
[General Topics] ahmedelhusseny:

I've tried 3 different apps and all fail to record. So I guess it's something with the Android operating system issue.

Ok, but what about backup, security

Hi,

first of all: nice offer, really.

But when it comes to backup, do you have a second server ? Is your server from locked from unauthorized access or do you just have a room in your house where's your server at.

Can your friends read the mails when you have a party and you are drunk because they just need to go to the server and log on as admin so they can access ALL mailboxes and all emails.

Do you have regular data backup so you can restore the exchange database after a crash ? What if your internet connection is down ? Backbone ?

Does your server have a professional anti-virus solution ?

After installing a windows update with forced restart, how long will it take to restart ? Dou you install updates regurlarly. Do you have a second server to test the updates before installing and did you ever need to revive a server that crashed by beeing updated ?

At least, I hope nobody knows where you live for they will try to kick your a.. after losing their mail due to anything that can so easily happen in the world of information technology !

and remember ... you have a job / family / life ...

Best regards
[General Topics] DeniaL:
seriously wtf?

I don't know what makes you think my server is @ my house... It is locked securely in my IT closet in my office.

Once again, I don't know why you are so sure this server is located at my house. Answer is no.

I have a regular backup and in the very near future I am going to be upgrading the hard drives in the server to 2 TB of storage in a raid array. My internet connection is a T1 with guaranteed 99.9% uptime. Since I've been in my office, for the last 7 years, I think I have had one day of down time.

I have Trend Micro anti-virus/anti-spam that is going to be installed in the upcoming weeks.

I don't see how this is relevant. I install Windows 2003 updates about once a month. I do not have a second server I test these on...this is not my business, this is simply a free service I am offering. If I put this much time into it, I would be forced to charge.

Again, WTF? This is a free service and comes with no guarantees or warranty. People, to a certain extent, need to do their OWN regular backups.

not after answering half of these questions I don't...

i have the Verizon Note 3 on Android 4.4.4 Model Number SM-N900V with Baseband Version N900VVRUDNJ6 i took the update yesterday to 4.4.4 via the Verizon Software Utility App on my computer and was wondering if there is a verifiable and working method for a Root process for this? ive done some light research and have yet to come across anything that would help. Also awhile back i had done a towelroot and when i would restart my phone it would have a Unlocked lock icon with the word "custom" under the Galaxy Note 3 icon on the boot and now that i have taken the update it no longer has the Unlocked Lock with custom underneath it. Any suggestions on how to Root or Get Lollipop on this device? Not the familiar with all the rooting process and whatnot so anything helps!!!

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] orphan203:
kernal is locked so you will get a mismatch and a soft brick. we will have to wait for ATT to supply the update to our bootloader. This is complicated by the fact that 5.0 is now in art runtime instead of davlik. hopefully the middle of Feb we will see a update.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Ljdd:
Wait, 5.o we get our bootloaders unlocked? Where have I been. Feel very primitive now
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] orphan203:
No we will not get them unlocked unless AT&T changes their stance. My point was you will be unable to use other 5.0 ROMs until the death star update our phone to 5.0 and then we will have matching kernels to boot touchwiz based 5.0 ROMs in safestrap.

It's not just Samsung. AT&T and Verizon asked Samsung to add things like a locked bootloader and Knox to cater to Corporate America. So blame the carriers too. The W8 is the same phone, but TMobile didn't ask for all the corporate crap.

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Eclipsys:
First, I apologize if this ins't the right area but it seems like a General question.

I recently bought a Kindle Fire HDX 7" and have had it about a week now. With all the Amazon Bloat and lack of Google apps I need more out of it. I am not a beginner with flashing roms and such, my HTC One is Rooted, CyanogenModed, and has a boot loader, anyways...

I have spent the last couple days reading up on the ways to do it on the HDX 7 and heard many warnings and bricks of this device, but some of the posts are a little bit older. I can't really tell which method of Rooting/Flashing is the safest out of all the different ones. My current OS version is 13.3.2.1. Using the Safestrap looks pretty easy and from what I understand is that even if you do brick it you can recover the original?

My question is... Is it any safer to flash a Rom lately (due to the updating problems?), and how safe is just rooting it for the time being? Also, what method/tools would you suggest to use? I don't like the FireOS and would like to get it close the a standard Android and/or CyanogenMod.

Thanks for your time.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] jimyv:
well

actually you came just in time and have the right firmware and place go to the development section and start reading we now have a brand new recovery that bypasses the security on our bootloader. I would advise reading reading these threads thoroughly. And your particular software is rootable with the existing utilities we have in the development section also. There has been a lot of development very recent keep in mind they are first version may be buggy but the utility .94 can get you rooted and safe from updates until you can do more research. And get your new recovery in place.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Eclipsys:
Thanks, by what you said I am guessing the internal workings haven't been figured out quite yet. I will head over to the development boards and see if I can find. Sadly I updated to FireOS 4.5 not knowing that there wasn't software to to roll back for versions above 1X but read that I can call Amazon and have it rolled back so no worries.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] jimyv:
nope

they have shut that opportunity down I believe it was probably getting abused. And I believe they were only able to roll back from 4. 1. 1 from now on
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Eclipsys:
I actually just got it rolled back, I read that people saying it doesn't happen anymore, but the very nice tech lady down graded me from 4.5.1 to 13.3.2.7. She stayed on the phone until it was completly reset. =) Now I should be able to root it easily with towelroot.

I was being pretty damn charming to her though, lol

I'm sure they don't want to and won't do it most of the time, but I is still 100% possible on their end, it's just wether they want to or not. I had a pretty decent story too, not just 'its slow and buggy'
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Davengerr:
after rolling back a couple of them it helps if you say that it was on version 3 then you updated to the latest one then make up some plausable combination of symptoms for example the one i went with is that my device restarts alone every 20 minutes or so and almost no apps work and then proceed to say that you were happy with how it was before it was updated

EDIT:also to note that i have yet to have them refuse me a single time through chat
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] jimyv:
well

I have just been reading about several people that have been rejected and why. There is a rumor that they gave it to their developers only and their technicians will go through your device logs and decide whether or not it is appropriate. Again rumor. I do not need roll back at least so far I have stuck with the old software all year...I just hate having to mess with trying to keep the OTA blocked. I just want them to take me off the ota push servers.

APN type - default, MMS, SUPL

The issue I am having is actually very similar to this issue from last year:

https://productforums.google.com/d/msg/hangouts/kzg-hqiDANc/8WG2j3EGWGkJ

I am completely unable to send MMS messages via the Google Hangouts application, but if I set my default messaging application to the stock messaging application, then my MMS messages go through perfectly fine. If I switch back to Hangouts, the MMS messages. The problem though that I am having, is that even if I specify an APN manually, this does not allow me to send the message either. If I try and edit any of the APN's already listed in Hangouts, and click the menu button and Save or Cancel, it deletes the APN rather than actually saving any data. If I add the APN, it doesn't actually save the APN to use. Hangouts has a list of APNs I guess embedded in their apk, but I can't do anything.

This seems specifically to be an issue with Google Hangouts, since other text messaging applications work perfectly fine with sending MMS messages.

Why doesn't Google Hangouts just follow the provided APN data installed in the Mobile Networks menu? Is there any way to work around this issue?
