[AT&T HTC One (M8)] BBEgo:
That's weird.... I thought I posted this in the Q&A forum. I was just in there looking for it and I thought it'd gotten deleted or something. Oh well.

Mods, please feel free to correct my goof.

I didn't use HTCDev to unlock. I just did Sunshine and it handled everything. S-off, unlock, and root - Talk about painless! After that I installed a custom recovery (Philz) and I was off to the races.

So I decided to SuperCID my phone so I can install whatever I want. No problem.

Then I tried to install 5.0.1 firmware (4.16.1540.8) so I could run SkyDragon, but the firmware posted on page 1 in the thread would not install- 4.16.1540.8

Kept giving me "FAILED (REMOTE:24 parsing android-info fail)"

I was able to install 4.16.401.9 with no major headaches, once I found a sensible upgrade path. That one is working fine, but I don't understand why 4.16.1540.8 would not install.

After googling the error, I found a post from Scotty a while back that said the phone wanted to see a stock recovery, locked. So I thought I'd throw the old recovery back on and do the 'fastboot oem lock' command . I didn't think it would impact the phone's operation since it is S-off. Well, the command worked, but I still wasn't able to flash the dang firmware I wanted to my phone.

So now I'm S-off, locked bootloader, PhilZ recovery (put it back on with Flashify), SuperCID, on Lollipop, and I guess everything is ok. But I still don't understand why the phone wouldn't take the firmware.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
If you ran sunshine on it,you can run it again i believe on that same device. It should unlock it again,if not then can try htcdev as it also uses fastboot to unlock as long as you can get adb to show needed code.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
In the past (at least on my One X EVITA) my understanding was that s-off meant that

all

security was bypassed. Meaning that bootloader check was effectively bypassed.

This isn't the case for the M8. From what I can tell a LOCKED bootloader still prevents you from flashing anything that isn't signed (anything "unofficial") even if s-off.

However, having an UNLOCKED bootloader doesn't seem to affect anything while s-off. Meaning you can do things like RUU when UNLOCKED (which normally needs to be LOCKED or RELOCKED if s-on).

In short, I don't ever recommend relocking the bootloader if s-off on this device. There isn't any reason to, as far as I can tell. Meaning, having an UNLOCKED bootloader doesn't prevent you from doing anything. However, a RELOCKED bootloader does (even when s-on) prevent some things.

First: sorry for my english, im uruguayan.

My phone its one D625 (Latam LTE version)

I have updated my phone to last KitKat KDR update from Antel(my company)

Now, i can't access to download mode, simply continues boot, like without button pressed.

If i do the recovery button secuence, i go to a text factory reset.

Thanks in advance

and sorry another time for my eng :'c
[LG G2 Mini] EnriqueSaurio:
Hi, dear.

it's because your company blocks download mode in the last update (KK 4.4.4).

You can reboot bootloader to solve the locked download mode, and install the bootloader from ADB pack, from google.

Network connectivity group: in here, I’ve elaborated on generic network connectivity questions / issues.

Proxy support? If it does support proxies, does it require the proxy settings entered locally, or, does it get from the system-wide Connectivity framework?: Is the given app able to use proxy servers?

Proxy servers can be very handy in a lot of respects. Please see this article (also linked from this PPCMag article) on the usage of proxy servers. Also, you may want to read this article for more information on configuring proxies on the PPC/switching between them.

Opera Mobile and Minimo both support locally-set proxy servers.

As you can see, PIE, starting with Pocket PC 2002, uses the system-level proxy server setting. PIE plug-ins also use them as they have access to all the PIE resources. NetFront is also able to do the same, but you can also supply a different proxy server to it locally (which is the preferred and easiest solution in most cases). Thunderhawk and Minimo have no proxy support at all.

Proxy-based anonymity?:

If you use proxies, you can also anonymously surf the Web (please see this and this article on anonymity). This is why PIE (with all its plug-ins), Minimo, Opera Mobile and NetFront are preferred for anonymous surfing. TH, while it doesn’t support proxies, doesn’t pass anything client-related (no IP, no ThunderHawk username) to the HTTP server, so, it can safely be used for anonymous Web surfing too. Opera Mini, unfortunately, does pass the client IP in an extended HTTP header.

Does use the PPC2k2+ Connections framework to diff. between The Internet/Work connections?: You may have already run into the The Internet/Work distinction, which effectively plagues the life of a lot of people. PIE is based on this paradigm; this is why you run into a lot of ‘can’t connect’ messages because of just using the opposite type of connection of what’s needed.

Non-PIE browsers aren’t based on this framework, which is a big plus with them, at least for people that don’t understand the The Internet/Work distinction ( it’s not an easy stuff; furthermore, it’s not really documented either).

Bandwidth reduction: GZIP/Compress support? Does it really work?: HTTP browsers that support GZIP compression (please read this article on this subject) and support working through proxies (the case of Toonel – more on this later) may deliver a big win in bandwidth usage.

Toonel-compatibility?: Toonel is a great and, even better, free online HTTP compression service, a great friend of everybody not having unliminted (or very fast) Internet access. It requires explicit proxy support (and manual configuration) in the Web browser. In this row, I’ve noted the compliance of PPC Web browsers with Toonel. As can be seen, all of the "big" titles support Toonel because of the proxy support. It's only client-server solutions like Opera Mini, Thunderhawk (and DeepFish) that don't support Toonel.

This is really great and informative. I've been wondering if I made the right decision (IEM WM6 until Minimo is good enough) and now I think I did. Thanks!

UPDATE (04/05/2007): Added a new row on Address bar (history / deletion / autocomplete), with a lot of screenshots; other minor changes in the chart.
[General Topics] Menneisyys:
In addition to yesterday's cleaning up the English & additional proofreading and today's adding a new row on the Address Bar history (deletion) / autocompletion, I've slightly modified the Opera Mobile-related information in the chart of the article, based on ResearchWizard's excellent feedback. (BTW, his Opera Mobile guide is just excellent and really worth checking out (alternative, direct link here)).

BTW, many have asked why there's neither "Verdict" nor "Most recommended" section in the Bible. The answer is very simple: while I, personally, consider Opera Mobile 8.65 the best browser closely followed by the WM6 (or, at least, WM5 AKU2+ - previous versions were 50% slower to load pages and, therefore, I wouldn't really be able to return to using them) IEM equipped with PIEPlus 2.2 if the bad JavaScript / non-existing AJAX support and the relatively high memory usage aren't a problem.

However, as you may have drastically different requirements, the above may not be the right solution for you. For example, you can ONLY use free software because, for example, you need the cheapest solution for enterprise-wide deployment, which means you'll need to cast a glance at Webby, Minimo or, probably the best free alternative, Opera Mini. Or, alternatively, you want to keep the original page layout on your low-resolution QVGA model; then, the first browser you should check out is Thunderhawk (not taking DeepFish into account).

That is, there was a reason I didn't (and still don't) provide a quick recommendation. There are a LOT of factors you need to consider when selecting your browser of your choice. You WILL want to thoroughly examine the feature / comparison chart, thoroughly compare each feature and consider whether the lack of a given feature is a showstopper for you or not. Providing a some-sentence-recommendation like ""go for Minimo if you need a free and, therefore, easily mass-deployable browser and memory consumption isn't an issue", "go for Opera Mini if you need minimal memory consumption, speed and also being free" or "stay with PIE if you don't need strong JavaScript / AJAX / CSS support and multitabs but want a free, dependable browser"" would have been an oversimplification.

I felt it useless to try to even replicate the information available in the comparison / feature chart in a Verdict section - there's simply too much information, I would have ended up pages on this "simple" subject. This is why I’ve left it out altogether – you’ll need to consult the chart so that you can make an educated, informed decision..
[General Topics] Menneisyys:
Updated the chart with Thunderhawk-related information. This means there are no question marks in the Thunderhawk-specific column any more. I've also provided several screenshots of Thunderhawk in action. Thanks to the Bitstream folks for providing me access to their service!

BTW, the article has been frontpaged by Pocket PC Thoughts in the meantime.

Finally, I can not stress and emphasize enough: if you have a specific need but lack the time to fully scrutinize the chart, use in-page searching (Ctrl-F) to quickly find the compatibility information you need. For example, if you want to know Flash, AJAX or JavaScript compliance, just use the word in question (for example "Flash") as the search expression and you'll really quickly find out which chart row discusses the given question.
[General Topics] Menneisyys:
Thanks to HowardForums user diadjika, I had the opportunity to thoroughly test Picsel’s famous Web (and document) browser for Windows Mobile and accordingly update the Windows Mobile Web Browser Bible (which, BTW, has just been frontpaged at AximSite).

The browser is WM5+ only (no WM2003(SE) support, sorry) and is NOT available for download officially; it’s shipped with some Windows Mobile models as is the case on other mobile platforms (for example, Palm OS).

It’s a direct (non central server-based) Web browser with REALLY excellent dynamic zooming / panning capabilities (regarding them, it’s the best of all Windows Mobile browsers) and built-in PDF, MS Excel / MS Word / MS PowerPoint and text reader. That is, it’s pretty much understandable why Palm OS users praise it so much.

Unfortunately, it also has its shortcomings; for example, the lack of a multi-tabbed architecture (as is the case with DeepFish / Thunderhawk and, of course, PIE without a third-party add-on), lack of file up/download capabilities, total lack of local caching, Ajax / Flash / Java / decent JavaScript support etc. In addition, sometimes it’s just painfully slow to download stuff, particularly with Yahoo Mail and for example the AximSite forums. That is, if you can’t stand its lack of speed (with some pages – with other pages, it has no problems at all), you’ll want to look elsewhere.

Make sure you thoroughly check out the brand new column in the comparison chart of the Windows Mobile Web Browser Bible for more information to see how it compares to the alternate browsers. The chart contains a LOT of screenshots showing the Picsel browser in action.

Verdict

While many (particularly Palm) people love the Picsel browser (and it has a lot of loyal Windows Mobile followers; for example, the excellent vijay555 at XDA-Developers), I don't think it's as good as the leading Windows Mobile Web browsers, particularly Opera Mobile 8.65 and the built-in PIE in WM5 AKU2+ / WM6 with a decent plug-in (like PIEPlus 2.2). It has VERY bad JavaScript and non-existent AJAX support, has no real "Fit to Screen" mode (the One Column mode is, in cases, too restrictive, particularly if you'd like to see not very wide charts and constantly zooming/panning is sometimes very awkward), sometimes very slow (see Yahoo Mail) and only offers one tab.

On the other hand, the excellent stylus-based dragging / zooming / gesture support of the browser, which is no doubt currently the BEST on Windows Mobile, should also be implemented by the alternate browsers, most importantly Opera Mobile (which has just, with version 8.65, implemented dragging) and PIEPlus. Are you listening, Web browser & PIE plug-in authors? ;)

Greetings. I have researched the web and it pointed me yo this community as the best source for rooted android info.

I have acquired a low end phone, and I noticed the GPS stays on all the time (even if you disable it in settings, the GSM battery (and even the regular battery) usage monitor shows it is on 100% of the time.

This is a major inconvenience because whenever an application requests location, it simply bypass my "do not use GPS" setting, turns it on and start searching for sattelites. This is a big battery drain.

Well, I started looking around, found about rooting, and made a self taught crash course about it.

I managed to root my device, installed XPrivacy, DisableService and System Uninstall , fumbled around and uninstalling a few things, fidgetting with permissions and going into the specified processes services I managed to reduce this "GPS Search" quite a bit.

Then I went into the new level, and started thinking about custom ROMs. Thats when I bumped into a problem. My phone is a CCE Motion.evo SK352, local manufacturer, and here in Brazil we have almost NO experience with root and custom phones. Few brazilians understand english AND tech to the point of even start to learn.

Well, the thing is, there is no custom rom avaiable anywhere that shows to be compatible with the model.

HOWEVER, I know CCE does not make chips, and it is using some other manufacturers chips to build their phones. this makes them a half frankenstein half clone.

I wonder if I post enough info abou it, can you point me to a working custom ROM (cyanogen? Paranoidandroid?, ANYONE?) that I can use, downloading the compatible version that matches my specs?

Thanks in advance.

Hi

I can't find anything relevant on XDA for your device. And keep in mind, There's more to a device than its chipset. Flashing anything not made for your exact device can brick your device, same chip or not. So you're likely not going to find anything useful about it... Other than guesses. But it's your device, so I'd not flash anything that hasn't been proven to work.

Feel free to ask about it here though,

Good luck!
[XDA Assist] Radaga:
Thanks!

Yeah, I found out (with the help of CPU Identifier) that it is an MTK 6572, and those are hard to make custom roms for it.

I guess I will have to live with this one as it is, until I can get something more palatable, such as a Galaxy something or a motorola whatever. (next two months)

By the way, any ideas on how to turn off the GPS for good? I mean, until I really want to turn it on, or something? xpermission and disableservice can only go so far. I cannot disable "4.2.2-eng ccadmin" to avoid it listening to requests to turn it off, now can I :D
