[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chyungspice:
Hi Y'all,

I have been trying for the past week to revert my HTC One m8 att back to stock without success.

From what I understand, I need to restore a stock backup to get the rom and then reflash the stock recovery.

But I am having major issues with this.

First, all of the stock backups seem to be nandroids or TWRP backups which I can't restore with CWM. When I try to install TWRP, my phone gets stuck at the screen that says "entering recovery..."

Next, whenever I try to reflash the stock recovery, nothing happens to the phone and it just boots back up again.

The reason I am trying to revert my phone back to stock is so that I can take an OTA update, update the bootloader, and then flash android lollipop Cyanogen mod.

If it helps my phone is:

HTC One M8 ATT

CID: CWS_001

1.58.502.1

Thanks!

The newest AT&T firmware is only 4.4.3, so you'll probably want to flash WWE firmware (it works with AT&T) instead of returning to stock, but you'll need S-Off for that.

Flash older version of TWRP like 2.7.0.2 and it will boot into recovery . :)

I am not an at&t user so don't know which firmware is safe to flash but you can goto pure stock and officially update to latest version.

Remember to use old TWRP version 2.7.0.2 because latest will not work due to old firmware on your phone :)

Figured It Out

Okay, so I figured out what I needed to do. FIrst, I didn't realize that I couldn't install TWRP 2.8 and it had to be something older. After that worked I restored a stock nandroid and then locked my bootloader. Finally I downloaded the RUU from HTC's website and let it do its thing. Now hurrah! I am in stock!

Thank you to everyone that helped me out!

This is a link to sktools that has a facility for clearing duplicates/notifications.

There are others Memmaid is one. Scarybear is a freeware one but the others have more tools available, Do not go mad deleting every item in your notifications queue. Some items perform crucial functions e.g. repllog.exe that allows active sync to function. Initially just stick to duplicates.

Second off ask cm team g+ or where ever you find those.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] vpxf:
The title says it all.

I'm not looking for features, or experimental, I need daily driver material.

This is for my partner who I currently have CM11 installed on their phone, and it tends to randomly reboot every few days.

I'm not sure how they feel about Sense ROMs but I doubt she would mind so as long as they have quick tiles. But she is used to AOSP type ROMs so those would be best.

Again, it does not have to be feature rich, just stable. I'm currently using Temasek Lollipop which is working great on my OPO but it's not available for the M7.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Uzephi:
Best stability is sense based roms. ViperOne has AOSP theming options. I hear liquid smooth and beanstalk are pretty stable as AOSP based roms.

Edit: the Google edition port from Santod is stable as well as it is a port from the GE M7 or M8 depending on release and Google edition is AOSP pretty much.

He also has lollipop GE in the development section. I haven't personally tried it as I love my Xposed.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] justpete:
So I've been at this a few days - basically I need to restore my phone to stock because my phone is no longer recognized by HTC SyncMaster, which is where I backed up my phone prior to rooting (which I also encrypted with a password). Rather unfortunate. Have tried rolling back the drivers, installing new/old ones, etc, no luck.

Have tried several ROMs, RUUs (zips and exe's), etc., and the only ROM That seems to work is the Cyanogemod ROM that I used initially - I don't mind it, in fact, I like it, but I need my data back.

I've tried Firewater, the Dev Kernel, side-loading, Odexed (stock), CWN Nandroid Stock, etc. etc. etc. Nothing has worked.

So - a little help, please? I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong - when I sideload/load zip from SDCard, it eventually errors out, if it's not a ROM other than initial CWN. Also, my recovery image is CWM.

I think that the problem is that I have a very new OS/Firmware, and S-ON is preventing me from installing older versions. Does that sound about right?

Thanks - It says I need a stock boot.img... I'm not sure yet where to get one. Tried using the boot.img from the "Stock" CWM zip and it didn't work. Tried to sideload, then upload to the SD Card, still geting an error.

Trying Rumrunner, but pretty sure it won't work.

Still scratching my head...
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seanie280672:
Yup CM won't do it, you need as close to stock Rom.as possible, try a kitkat version of maximusHD or ARHD, you will need to use twrp 2.6.3.3 recovery to flash them , if sideload isn't working then try pushing the Rom, failing that you could always pick up a usb otg cable quite cheap.

I've heard of people having problems coming from CM back to sense roms, once you get twrp on there you may have to wipe then format data, be aware though that this will wipe your entire phone so backup anything you need first, after the format, reboot back into recovery, your sdcard will now be empty, so push the Rom you downloaded to it and flash it.

Hi, I was wondering I just recently bought a Nobis 7.85" Tablet, and for some reason everytime I shut down the tablet and start it up again, it does a factory reset, and I have to start all over and put in my information each time. I heard that if I root the tablet, and have full access to it, I could try to fix the problem by downloading Root Explorer. I'm not sure though how I could root it. Does anyone know what works best for this brand of Android tablet? Or does anyone know what else I could do to fix this problem? Thanks.

Hello. I love MX player. It supports a very wide range of file types and codecs. I have recommended this product to numerous people. For me, the premium upgrade is a bargain and I am happy to pay it.

Having said that..... there is one thing that I am struggling with. Does this player offer any type of video out capabilities?

In particular, I have a Dragon Touch A1X android tablet running 4.4 firmware. The MX player works great on this device. However, it does have a mini-HDMI port on it, and I would love to be able to cast from the tablet to my HD television set.

Can someone please educate me on what is the best way to accomplish this........ or if it is even possible at all?

Thanks in advance.

Hi! I recently had an issue which caused my phone to be soft bricked, but I somehow solved that... My issue now is that I want an aosp rom on my phone, but am worried about installing it. Some guides say flash the boot.img first, some say flash it after. What I want to know is what rom is the best Jelly bean rom to install. Or, if it is a good idea to move up to kitkat... my only concern with that would be which recovery supports a kitkat rom, or if i need a custom hboot or something.

Sorry if I sound a bit nooby about this, I have only just got this phone, I have a lot of experience with Samsung's, but not HTC's... Thank you in advance!

[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Katsigaros:
Great post! I would also add to the app list the Lux Auto Brightness which with proper settings can save a lot of battery life.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] mab71:
Mind sharing what kind of settings? Thanks
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] monsieur_debile:
Another good tips:

Do not install battery life apps such as doctor battery etc...

Instead of improving battery life, its counter-productive while always running in background

Then causing some persistent wakelocks that prevent phone being periodically awake.

BBS might be the cause aswell
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Katsigaros:
First disable in phone"s built-in "Brightness settings", the "adapt to lighting conditions".

After you install the Lux Auto Brightness set:

Adjust: Dynamic

Using Profile: Auto

Then go to Setting > Profile Editor

Select "Day" then "Lux".

Apply these settings by pressing "add":

0 lux = 10% brightness

1 lux = 57% brightness

5 lux = 59% brightness

10 lux = 61% brightness

15 lux = 63% brightness

20 lux = 65% brightness

40 lux = 67% brightness

1000 lux = 90% brightness

10000 lux = 100% brightness

Then Press "Night" then "Lux".

Reapply the above settings.

Then press "Backup" to backup to SD.

Don't forget also:

On "Night mode" to tick the "Night Mode" and the "Enable Automatic Night Mode".

On "Sunset Location" to Set it in "Auto".
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Norup58:
Thanks for the settings. Its always nice to benefit from other's footwork:good: Will give them a shot.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] monsieur_debile:
Nice catch, did you feel any improvement?

brightness set at an half + no auto brightness
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Katsigaros:
My pleasure:)

---------- Post added at 04:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:16 PM ----------

Yes i saw improvement because i don't have to change the brightness manually all the time. Since i started to use this program i had always set the brightness stucked at 75% whether i was indoors or outdoors but but now it adjusts the brightness automatically to the environment and that's why it saves a lot of battery.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] tRippinthehead:
I think it is too bright settings at your example
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] quarrymanpaul:
I'd agree. Also why are you saying you had to change the brightness manually all the time. Is that not what the built-in auto-brightness does? It works quite well for me anyway
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] monsieur_debile:
Another big battery improvement and it did eliminating most of my persistent wakelocks

Llama:

Set these following events:

- Screen On: Mobile data On, 3G /4G On

- Screen Off: Mobile data Off, 2G only

Of course, you can add more events/actions/conditions (wifi...)

It actually works better than Stamina since mobile data has been disabled for good (even with Stamina on, some apps/services might attempt to communicate with data mobile)
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Katsigaros:
Yes they were my personal settings but you still can reduce the lux settings by 5%, 10%, 20% e.t.c. according to your needs.

Just leave the same these settings:

0 lux = 10% brightness

1000 lux = 90% brightness

10000 lux = 100% brightness

Then Change all the other values for:

1 lux

5 lux

10 lux

15 lux

20 lux

40 lux

For example instead of:

1 lux = 57% brightness

you can put:

1 lux = 47% brightness

or

1 lux = 37% brightness

And so on...
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Norup58:
As I understand the app (please correct me if wrong), when entering various lux values + dynamic enabled this means if you set 10 lux =50% and 50 lux =60% the app will adjust the 10% brightness within the 40 lux spectra you have set.

Going on this assumption I have following settings for Day/Night:

0 lux = 25%	0 lux =20%

1 lux = 35%	1 lux =30%

40 lux = 50%	50 lux =50%

500 lux =70%	500 lux =60%

20k lux =100%	10k lux =100%

Just for info, found follow on the net to give an idea of how fast the lux value increases:

0 lux = Moonless clear night sky

1 lux = Full moon on a clear night

50 lux = Family living room lights

80 lux = Office building hallways/ toilets

250 lux = Easy office lighting/ class rooms

500 lux = Study libraries/ Groceries

750 lux = Supermarkets/ Office landscapes

1000 lux = Overcast day

10k lux = Full daylight (not direct sunlight which is => 32k lux)

[Xperia Z3 Compact General] monsieur_debile:
First, install BetterBatteryStats

Do you play often? (Clash of Titan, 9%, gaming is the best way to drain battery life quicker)

Disable NFC,

Do not use any battery life optmizer or anti virus apps, its counter productive and waste battery life more

Install Greenify, freeze Facebook (one of the worst app on Play Store, very energyc-consuming )

Follow the rest of my tuto and it would be all be fine

Before a while a had tried to unlock the bootloader of c2104. After unlocking it went on into boot loops

In the same condition I rooted it and flashed Pactaoshan rom (cm11). In recovery it read package invalid or corrupted. However now it's fine with its stock rom.

Now I try to update it to Cm12. Do I need to unlock bootloader for it or would it work fine without it.

And if I need to unlock, can anyone explain it step by step from unlocking till flashing Cm12?

A video with step wise Guideline would work

Also I am keen to know why my c2104 didn't accept cm11 previously mentioned.

Waiting keenly for your reply.
[Sony Xperia L] Joel16:
Lol you're supposed to flash a stock FTF file once you've unlocked your bootloader. Then go through the steps of installing CM11/CM12. That is flashing boot.img from CM11, and then using the recovery menu.(Press and hold the volume up button when the led lights up during power on) Yes I know I said boot.img from CM11, that's because the recovery in CM12 cannot be used properly. In the recovery menu you can either flash the CM11 or CM12 zip file.
