Software updates

Based on this thread, I snagged a refurbished Motorola 1096 on ebay. With a T-Mobile SIM card, I get flawless voice, SMS texting, and 4G LTE data. Out of the box, it came with Android 4.4.4 but automatically started downloading lollipop as soon as I turned it on - this was before I put the SIM card in. I did update it fully before inserting the T-Mobile SIM card, and so I don't know if it'll continue to automatically update if it has a non-Verizon SIM card in.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xFuGiToiDx:
Software updates has nothing to do with the carrier sim card you are using in it. The phone itself will get it respective software update depending on its model number/variant and imei/serial number. For example, I'm using a at&t variant, and I unlocked it by purchasing an unlocked code so that I can use it on my local carrier. I was still able to get the lollipop update.

I can also confirm that this works. I just left a TMo store, and my Verizon 2gen MotoX works perfectly!!! Calling, text, data, GPS...perfect!!

another great reason TMo > VZ

Great to know. It is now $200 on eBay, ordered it just now and hopefully would get it in hand by this weekend.

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enchilader:
Hate to necro this thread, but I'm wondering if anybody here is still running T-Mobile on their XT1096 (Verizon). I just went in to the T-Mobile store today and tried out a test SIM card, and while both voice and data seemed to work fine, I had hiccups with SMS. Based on some testing, I was able to send texts but was unable to receive them. We played with some APN settings and rebooted the phone but to no avail.

One unique thing about my setup is that my bootloader is unlocked and I'm running a custom debloated version of the stock ROM (which can be found here: http://xdaforums.com/moto-x-2014/development/img-xt1096-victara-mofo-image-root-t3100145). Is it possible that this could be causing the issue, should I go back into the store running pure stock and try again?

Anybody got any ideas?

What S/N number of Hermes do you have?

And when do you bought it?

At the shop, they have the HT633 today:confused: . Is this number old? Can be this hermes older and problematic one? Or, can Hermes manufactured these days has this number?

Maybe there is incremented end string of S/N only so start string HTxxx is keeped for a destination mark?

I'm also from Europe, Romania to be more precise and I did not receive any OTA notification. I spoke with an online assistant, asking when will we see an update for Europe versions. The answer was that there is no ETA for Europe but to check the update info page located here, which we probably already do on a regular basis with no success what so ever.

Hi,

I've updated my phone via a zip of soak test to android 5.0.2 and it says its up to date when I manually check for an update.

Also when I compared the uploaded screen shots to my phone, I didn't notice any change in the Kernel version or the System version. So in there anything extra they have patched in this version?

Please do tell if any one finds out.

Here in the Netherlands still no sign of Lollipop :crying:. It takes too long and the RAM management bugs are killing me :mad:.

I bought a Motorola phone as they would provide good ROMs and fast updates. I've never been so wrong.

Here I also have a Samsung Galaxy S Plus with 400MB RAM running Lollipop CM12 5.0.2. It has no RAM issues.

Running Chrome? No problem m8. Running multiple apps opened in background like music, Play Store, Google Calendar, launcher. Not even a single app gets killed.

My S Plus from 2011 is more usable than my damned Moto G running KitKat (something dies inside me).

I'm sending my HTC one m8 in for the one time free glass replacement. I have unlocked the boot loader and rooted the phone will they still do it for free or do I need to do something before I send it in?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] tommy_riley:
They shouldn't care, but I would unroot phone and relock the boot loader just to be on the safe side. Relocking the phone will factory reset phone, but I would do that anyway regardless just so my personal stuff wasn't in someone else's possession.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] DanGeorges:
I was told by an HTC chat representative that because I registered and downloaded the unlock code from HTC that this voided the warranty - all parts of it, including the Advantage Program. - I think this is terrible. Unlocking the bootloader has NOTHING to do with dropping the phone or replacing a broken part.

I hope you have good luck getting the glass replaced free under the program. Please keep us posted on what happens!
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
From what I have see, there have been mixed reports. Some folks with modded phone have had their screen fixed under Advantage, and some have been denied (HTC makes you pay for the repair?).

I would recommend return the phone to LOCKED (s-off required), return to s-on, and everything else stock, and hope for the best. If you unlocked by HTCDev.com, they have a record of you doing so by the phone's IMEI. So your chances are probably not great. If you unlocked the bootloader via sunshine, they should have no way of knowing the phone is modded if you return

everything

to stock.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
Bootloader can say "relocked" and it will still be able to be fixed. If rooted and unlocked and non stock firmware/software/recovery then they will not fix based on my findings(repair center techs).
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] mbcastle:
My screen malfunctioned and I had to send the phone in for replacement. I returned back to stock via RUU and relocked the bootloader, but left it S-Off. I did not get any grief from HTC. So far, I have left the new phone completely stock, but I'll likely unlock, root, and s-off at some point. ?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] DanGeorges:
Did you unlock the bootloader using HTC Dev, or via Sunshine/other?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] mbcastle:
I unlocked using HTC Dev, so they certainly have a record of it. Plus, mine said "relocked" on the bootloader screen.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] stefan.buddle:
I sent mine in around January 3rd with a relocked bootloader with no issues at all except for them breaking mt camera lens on the return shipment , this being after it got damaged on the way there... -_- but they dont care about the bootloader as far as I'm concerned
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] wekilledkenny:
When I contacted HTC chat originally for my free screen replacement, I was unlocked and rooted, and they gave me the runaround about the warranty being voided (I unlocked through HTCdev).

I exited the chat, relocked the bootloader and flashed back to stock.

Went back into a new chat, they replaced it without a hitch. Well unless you consider the power button now being stuck on my new phone, so I need to send it back under warranty again, a hitch lol.

So apparently, if you contact them while rooted and unlocked, they may try to use it to void your warranty. But if you put it back to factory, you're showing them it's not a software issue from you messing with it (don't ask me how a cracked screen would be), so they give you no hassle.

Hello,

I have a question for the pros? I'm currently running a gt-n8013 (us base) with Gnabo V8 flashed on it. My current problem is the unit will not charge while shutdown, it simply reboots and won't stay shutdown. Which isn't a huge issue until recently the system seems to lose charge even while plugged in.

I've researched it down and consensus seems to be to update to a kk bootloader. My question is which bootloader file do I use. I believe the old bootloader to install the rom was found in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2770009 but I'm not sure which file I should flash.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi there,

My phone does this weird thing lately where the speakerphone is alwas on when I call or am being called. Doesn't matter if I turn speakerphone off (pressing the green answer key), next time it's on again. After the call it returns to profile Normal though, just when a call arrives or when I make a call that this happens. Quite annoying to hear the other person blasting through the speaker where all around me can hear this as well...

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoogleAndroid:
So, this is a strange issue. When my phone dies, it will die when it says I have 5% of battery. Sometimes, it will die at a reported 4% instead. This randomly started one day. I got the 5% remaining notification, and suddenly, my phone shut down. Ever since, I can't get below 4%. I've tried to turn the phone on, but it acts like it is dead.

I'm not sure if it's just reporting the wrong percentage, or if it's actually dying early. I've tried flashing different ROMs, wiping everything, and no change. I've also used Battery Calibration to delete battery stats, with no change. I've had issues with other phones dying a little early, but battery calibration always fixed it, so I'm at a loss. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there anything I can try to fix it?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eman630:
Definitely have this issue too. Dies at 4% strangely enough. Thought it suppose to croak at 0% lol.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Its just not reporting the percentage properly. MIne does it too.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doitright:
The phone will shut off when the *voltage* drops below a certain threshold, regardless of what the actual "percent left" indicates.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Yep indeed.

There used to be tricks to get the % to show correctly but they weren't entirely good.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doitright:
In theory, the percentage display is supposed to calibrate automatically to the voltages... however it should be noted that the battery's *minimum* voltage does need to be programmed in at some point in the process, since the shutoff voltage can NEVER vary. Most likely, the problem of shutting off at 4-5% is a matter of "feel good" battery levels, much like some lingerie stores will label items with the "next size down" or "next cupsize up" to make women feel smaller and bigger in the areas they want. It basically bumps the full scale percentage display by an average of 2.5% UP, which can lead some less observant users to viewing that as a slightly improved battery life. Most people will plug in before it hits 5%, so won't even notice this.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoogleAndroid:
So, basically, that's just how it is? I've never had a phone that was so off. And I still don't understand why it went down to 0% or 1% the first few weeks I had it. It's not an issue, it's just strange.

I also have this issue and posted a similar thread about it a couple weeks ago. Given that any other device I've owned has been able to consistently reach 1% before shutting off, I think this is either a Lollipop bug or specific to Zthe Nexus 6.

Maybe it's intentional?

The Nexus 4 could sometimes be a real pain to reboot if you let it go completely dead. I suppose it's possible Motorola/Google are preventing complete depletion of the battery.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Complete depletion of the battery would literally lead to an explosion upon recharge. That's why all lithium based batteries have an additional 10 - 20% below the battery chip shutdown voltage.

Also a phone that shuts down at 5% is more likely to automatically shut down than one that shuts down at 0% as its a little more unpredictable.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
now i have the opposite problem. my phone keeps charging after it hits 100%. i use current widget, and watch it when im charging. and current keeps coming in after its at 100%. it will depend, but sometimes it could still be charging for a half an hour after it hits 100%. but then again, it could stay at 100% for 30-60 minutes after i start using the phone on battery again :silly:
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
I remember the battery calibration trick on Tue original HTC desire. Turn the phone off and charge to 100 then reboot and charge again. It got the % out of whack and gave a false perception that the battery lasted longer as it stayed at 100 for much longer than it should do.
