[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Meaning what? Did you:

1) Take both versions apart and compared the PCBs? Or

2) you just found something online?

If #1, it would be nice if you can take a photo of the two versions side by side. If #2, cite your source and provide a link if possible.

If a phone is SIM locked (most from the US are), that means its locked to one carrier (in your case Sprint). The device will ask you for a code when you insert a SIM from any other carrier. You can either get the code from the carrier (you normally have to be a Sprint customer) or a paid unlock service. Sometimes there are other "free" methods (there is a SIM unlock hack on this device, with s-off), or you can also sometimes buy devices that are SIM unlocked at the factory.

Since your local SIM works fine, the device was either SIM unlocked at some point, or never SIM locked to begin with.

Its a possibility when you flash a ROM or mod intended for different hardware, that you render the device completely useless (only recoverable if you open the phone and JTAG, replace the motherboard, etc.). This is known as a "brick".

If this is due to the wrong ROM or mod, the effect is almost always immediate.

I suspect there is at least a partition difference between CDMA and GSM versions of the M8. For a while, folks flashing the wrong version of TWRP would brick the device (I believe the reports concerned flashing the GSM version of TWRP on a CDMA device). But this has since been fixed, and the TWRP versions unified, as far as I know.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dj_muncher:
there are the links. I didnt see any difference

1 - CDMA M8 - http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/phone.php?p=4421

2- GSM M8 - http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/phone.php?p=4422

my device should be factory unlocked because I have used 2 different SIM cards and they were different network operators and have wiped the data and install the orriginal rom and a few times factory reset but still dont have any problem yet.

about rom. when I enter the bootloader there is writting "OFFICIAL ROM".

before this device I had HTC One X .there was a custom rom. and it was killing the battery. every 10 hours i have to recharge it. and I hate that. thats why i dont want to install a custom rom. about rom i will never have a problem i think.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
This means

nothing

. Aside from the Snapdragon chipset number being the same (MSM8974AB) there isn't anything that remotely confirms or suggests the hardware is the same by a million miles. The specs given on those types of websites isn't even right a lot of times (I've seen lots of errors on these types of websites).

The only way to know is if somebody took apart both versions and compared the PCBs. Even then, there is still a possibility of some differences.

That is the worst argument against custom ROMs I have ever read. For one thing, battery life is a very complicated thing. Blaming the ROM says more about your lack of knowledge than it does about the quality of custom ROMs. For all we know, it was user error, like failure to update your firmware. Or you could have been using an improper ROM/radio combination for your carrier resulting in poor reception and high battery drain.

Further, to have a bad experience with

one

custom ROM, and to dismiss the hundreds of ROMs on various devices is ludicrous. The expertise of every developer is different; every ROM is different. Every individual user has different usage habits and needs, and will have different results with a ROM.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dj_muncher:
There is no possibility to do that now. you are quite right about web sites but not at all i think. about this site maybe but if we take well know sites for example phonearena,gsmarena than it would be more difficult to say that.

I was using the best rom for HTC One X. I mean i searched it on internet and everybody told me .................... ( i dont want write what it calls.) is the best and i chose it.

A SMALL NOTE

- on One x 1900 mh. battery it means too small battery for an android phone. I dont dismiss it just thinkin about stock rom is better than custom roms.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
I've seen plenty of specification errors on both or those websites. I've even seen HTC post incorrect specs for their own devices.

It doesn't sound like you intend to mod the phone anyway. But I would never recommend making a decision (such as one that could result in a brick) just based on a few lines of hastily typed (probably cut and paste) specs.

At the end of the day, the only true determining factor on whether a mod works on different variants of a device is trial and error. And when the consequence of such experimentation is possible permanent damage; its simply something many people will not want to do intentionally. And not something I recommend.

Such statements again prove your inexperience, more than anything. Anyone with any decent experience here on XDA can tell you:

There is not such thing as a "best" ROM. Every user has different preferences and needs, use their devices differently, and there are also local reception and network differences. To say there is one "best ROM" is like saying blue is a better color than red.

And to conclude that stock ROM is better than custom ROM based on your experience with one ROM

from a different device

is nonsense. Essentially, you have never tried a custom ROM on this phone, so you can't make that statement. Custom ROMs and modding are not for everyone, I will agree with that. And you are free to do what you want (or don't want) on your phone. But don't make statement about how one thing is better than another, if you don't have the knowledge to make such statement.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dj_muncher:
I am sorry for late answer there was no possibility enter the internet. i was in different city and just came back.

About websites we are agree but not always.

about custom roms. i was interested in battery life and everybody told me that rom is the best for battery. i only had battery problem and that rom was not help me. but in the other hand i was very happy when i was using that custom rom . because i had the whole control of my device...
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
There is not such thing as "best battery life" for all people in all conditions. Anyone who claims otherwise is incorrect. Some people may get battery life on a particular ROM, while others may get worse (it happens all the time). There are simply too many variables, such how you use the phone; and battery life is often a function of reception in your exact location. Its also possible that your previous device has some battery or antenna issue, and a ROM isn't going to solve that.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dj_muncher:
I dont think my previous device has some problem. because once i had some problem and sent to warranty to services. and they check it and gave me a report the phone was woking perfectly. but the battery capacity was too low 1900mh. do you ever have a htc one x ?

and i have a new problem can you help me with my sisters device :)

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greyhulk:
Just got a new AT&T G3 from Amazon. Twice in the last two days, the phone has locked up so bad that only a battery pull will revive it. I tried holding the power button down for as long as 20 seconds, but nothing happens.

I haven't done anything too serious to the phone. I did root it using stump root and I have adaway installed and I'm using Nova launcher. Otherwise, it's stock. No custom kernel or anything. I'm using all the same apps that I used on my last 5 or 6 Android phones and I haven't tweaked any other settings.

Anyone else experience this or know what might be causing it? This is the first Android phone i've had in a while that's done this and it's kind of alarming, given the frequency of the occurrences. The first time it did this, the notification light was blinking and I picked it up to check it. The second time, I was pulling down the notification shade.

Thanks.

Did you search for the latest KDZ and install it?

LG Update may not always provide the latest version

If it keeps happening even though you have the latest software version take it back and show them the problem

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] recharge:
Hi,

is there a detailed specification for the HTC devices like for Nokia phones? There are some optional Java packages which not every manufacturer of mobiles implements, e.g. JSR82 (Bluetooth API), JSR135 (Mobile Media API), JSR179 (Location API) ... (http://java.sun.com/javame/reference/apis.jsp)

More precisely, I am interested in the exact Java specification of HTC Prophet and Artemis, perhaps also of a small smartphone with fewer features and less weight.

Hey guys so I have a HTC one M8 for Verizon. I have it rooted, S-OFF and I'm running a custom ROM GPE. My problem with this framework is that when I try to install the framework to make it work with GEL it tells me CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE. I've tried googling some answers and searching this forum but all the answers I've gotten don't work. I have tried flashing the zip file through the custom recovery I use TWRP. Can anyone help me out? Thanks.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jimyv:
is it a lollipop rom?

Because everywhere I have read in any of the lollipop threads 5.0+

xposed is not currently working...... it also is also is stated several times in the xposed thread here at XDA

I am currently running s off 5.0.1 NusenseSIX-LP v5.2

it's nice to have a working consistent hotspot again. But the no xposed has got me bummed.

I was able to download, but setup failed because it took too long. After several attempts, I finally got Andy to open to the Time of day screen. I pressed the unlock button and at that point, the screen became unresponsive. Even after leaving it to work through the process, it never did get past the Andy lock/unlock screen.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Shifters123:
I am quite new to flashing ROMs and I was really excited when i managed to successfully flash a ROM on my Tipo, it was the AOKP milestone1 ROM and it was pretty good but every 10 seconds an error came up saying "Android Keyboard has stopped working". So today i decided to install the Alienware KitKat ROM it was going well, i transferred the zip file to my SD card, managed to boot into recovery, delete phone date, cache etc and install it. However when i tried to reboot the phone after installing it the pink notification light and the capacitive buttons would light up for 5 seconds and then turn off, but i can still go into CWM recovery mode. So I tried to flash the stock ROM back onto my phone through Flashtool but even that didn't work for me, it kept on getting stuck.

Does anyone have a solution for me. I'm quite saddened by this my phone right now is useless.

where is the battery settings !! and where is the launcher settings !! and where is every thing :D !!

and how to control my notification drawer toggles !!

and how to copy and cut files in the file manager !

about the problems in the build ..

when i try to get into mobile data settings i get phone crushing and the mobile get into airplan mode ther return to normal again in a second

no icons in settings .. the icons colored white so it's not appearing in the system

i can't tell if bluetooth or wifi or any thing is on or off in the settings there is no change happening in the toggle ( if u know what i mean .. i didn't take a screen shot )

when i click on show traffic data on display ( i can't till if it on or off ) i get system ui crushed

the camera works fine for me it sometimes get " can't connect to camera " but i close it and open and here we are the camera is working

...

after all the rom will be a great and awesome and very smooth rom but it has to be some fixes and adding some features in it so we can have more control in the system UI

great job and keep going :good::good:

waiting for the next build ;)
[Sony Xperia M2] nilimahona:

[Sony Xperia M2] Mina Mngawy:
The copy and past thing .. It copy the file to the same folder but i can't copy to another folder !

I have got the solution to the force close that is caused when we choose mobile networks>mobile networks in settings which causes com.android.phone to be force closed... Replace the dialer.apk , teleservice.apk from priv app of system with that of original cm11 build and set the permissions to rwrr.. Also replace teleserviceprovider.apk from apps of system with that of cm11 build and set the permissions.. This will resolve the problem.. :D
