[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonet666p:
Answer

First Answer

Hi, i installed ElementalX-m7-19.2-Sense.zip from https : // www . androidfilehost . com /?fid=95897840722648289 , with TWRP openrecovery-twrp-2.8.4.0-m7.img downloaded from http : // techerrata . com/browse/twrp2/m7 and the nandroid is from http

: // www . chw . net /foro/htc/1042185-tutorial-instalar-rom-stock-htc-one-4-4-2-sense-5-5-desb-bootloader-recov-root.html 4.2.2 version named Stock_Odex_2.24.709.1_Final.zip

When i installed the elementalX kernel, my phone could not load the operative system, and i flashed boot.img from Stock_Odex_2.24.709.1_Final.zip file via fastboot with "fastboot flash boot boot.img", after that, the phone can not load fastboot nor recoverys adb.

Second answer

The phone loads only the htc logo and then keep in a black screen, but i can power off when i press vol+ and power buttons, then i try load fastboot, and i press the vol- and power button simultaneously, and load hboot screen same to attached image, but when i try load Recovery or Fastboot option, it not responds.

I run "lsusb" under linux but my computer can not recognize my phone.

Have i some oportunity for recover my phone?, or i need necessarily a Riff Box with JTag method?

I'm can't speak english well, i hope you understand me.

Thanks for your time.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
First elementalx 19.2 is for Sense 6 roms running android 5.0.2 only. So I don't understand why you have flashed this version unless you was already running a custom roms like ARHD90 or MaximusHD50. If you were on stock rom (5.13.599.101), the kernel you should have flashed is elementalX 14.12 for sense 6 and android 4.4.2.

Another thing you did wrong was restoring a 2.24.709.1 nandroid backup. Your version is .599 (5.13.599.101) (latin america) and you are on firmware step 5 (5.13.599.101). .709 versions are for CID HTC__621 (Asia) and your cid is HTC__332 and is also way older then what you need (2).

So now there is big mismatch in your phone. Firmware is 5.13.599.101 (except the kernel part which is 2.24.709.1), software version is 2.24.709.1.

You need at least to be able to use fastboot commands or boot in the custom recovery, otherwise there is nothing to do (except jtag of course)

So you are 100% sure you can't use fastboot? When selecting "fastboot" in the bootloader using the power button, the phone just hangs there and nothing happen?

When you try to boot in recovery, is it saying "entering in recovery" and hanging there or it simply hang in the bootloader?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonet666p:
:( yes, i am shure, the phone just hangs when i try load fastboot and same case when i try load recovery, i need jtag method Y_Y

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
you need to flash the firmware first when using 4.xx.xxx.x RUUs. Then the ruu will flash fine, its a common bug for all 4.xx.xxx.x ruu, must be on 4.xx.xxx.x firmware before flashing.

Btw, imo, I would change my cid to BS_US001 and flash the latest dev edition ruu (6.07.1540.2) instead of flashing the 4.19.631.9 Rogers version which mean you'll be up to date, receive the next ota faster and have no Rogers bloatwares.

Why did you flashed the 6.06.401.1 firmware?.

6.06.401.1 is not even for Rogers or Dev edition, its European (.401)

If using the dev edition RUU then flash the Dev edition firmware first (6.07.1540.2).

If using the Rogers RUU then flash the Roger firmware first (4.19.631.9).

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RoberGalarga:
Hi there, I'm trying to compile Cyanogenmod 10.1 from source for a chinese phone (MT6572, 512MB RAM, 4GB or so internal), but I'm facing a problem I can't solve (I've attached a log with the problem).

So far the source is compiling just fine, the problem is the phone needs EXT4 system imgs, but when I put this line in BoardConfigCommon.mk:

TARGET_USERIMAGES_USE_EXT4 := true

I get the error in the log.

I'm not sure, but I think my build env is configured correctly, since without that line all goes good, even I get the zip file to install (I get an error related to the ext4 filesystem needed if I try to use it, however).

If you want to see the files I'm using, see them on Github, please.

Any ideas? :confused:

UPDATE - SOLVED

Kinda weird (and dumb) fix, changing the partition sizes in BoardConfigCommon.mk from hex to decimal did the trick :silly: :rolleyes:

Oh, BTW, it doesn't boot... needs more work I think xD

[Java for Android App Development] Syndacate:
So the end goal in this project is to view an RTMP stream and interact with the server at the same time.

This is a little hard, because obviously VLC or Mx Player or whatever I'm viewing the RTMP stream with doesn't know how to communicate with the custom server. So I'm trying to make an overlay that will sit on top of the player which has buttons, the buttons can then communicate with the server which will alter the stream and you'll see the result streamed to the player. This is sort of like an interactive HUD if you will.

Problem is that it's difficult to make an overlay which will take actions if they're clicked, but can also pass those actions to the background app (in this case the player) if it opts not to process them. Right now my app creates a service and the service catches the input and displays whatever. This WORKS, but the problem is no matter what I return from "onTouchEvent(MotionEvent)" in the view of the service (true or false) the home screen is frozen. It catches the press but it won't pass it on, even if the function returns "false" - to say it's not handled.

I'm not sure if I'm not passing the touch event on correctly, or is this not even possible? I read somewhere that it's not possible for app A to provide input to app B, but I'm not sure if that is correct (frankly I don't believe it). Basically I want to handle some presses in the overlay and allow some others to go to the active app beneath it.

Does anybody have any input for making this work as expected? I'm creating a view to pass to the window manager with the following flags:

LayoutParams params = new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.TYPE_SYSTEM_ALERT,
LayoutParams.FLAG_WATCH_OUTSIDE_TOUCH | LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_FOCUSABLE,
PixelFormat.TRANSLUCENT);

I've tried playing with the flags but to no avail, I cannot get the touches to go through, even if all the onTouchEvent(MotionEvent) function does is return false.

Anybody have any ideas?

I'd be open to alternative implementation ideas too, the point is I need to basically have two communication channels open, one is a player (ie. VLC) for viewing the RTMP stream, which likely would not change, the other would be the command stream, which will control said server, which I am open to change. I considered trying to use the accelerometer in the service instead of an overlay, but I think that would create a bad proof of concept UI (because there's some latency in the video stream), any alternative ways to communicate with the server would be up for discussion! :) Maybe I can plug an IO device into the USB port or something, like a keyboard? Extra buttons could be of use. It's only a POC, so some clunkyness IS okay.

EDIT:

As you can see above, I used an alert type instead of an overlay type, I guess this is because overlays won't accept focus after a certain Android version number. I'm using 4.0.4 ICS.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] randymancanstand:
Have decided to pick up an M8 and have been reviewing the process for unlocking the potential of the phone.. had a couple general questions about

If the phone comes with 4.4.4, is it still unlockable/rootable using the sunshine option? or am I out of luck?

Would there be a better chance to have an older version firmware if I pickup in store versus ordering it online from VZW?

I’ve been reading about how VZW likes to ‘lock down’ their devices using successive OTA updates.. If it comes with a newer stock firmware and I am unable to unlock/root, is it likely or possible in the future for it to become an option?

I appreciate your time and effort.

Cheers
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] rwcasto:
Well-Some have had luck with unlocking with Sunshine http://theroot.ninja/index.html on 4.4.4 I was not able too- they are working on 3.0 version and they said this will unlock the bootloader and give you s-off. There is no ETA. Though, I read a post that said they were shooting for January 2015, but there were no promises.

The good news is that weaksauce 2 will give you temporary root. But you can not make any permanent changes/ using xPosed framework is a bad idea. However, I would try the current version of sunshine and give it a shot!

I was able to download a wifi tether app and got that to work. So, I am waiting for Sunshine 3.0 to drop!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] randymancanstand:
I see. Well I certainly appreciate your input.

I know the newer versions of all the current flagship phones will be announced/released in the next couple of months and wanted to get a feel for people's thoughts on how this would affect current phones and the methods used to root/unlock them.

I guess the fact that a newer version of sunshine is in the works is good news.. I can play around with stock (assuming my phone comes with 4.4.4) until 3.0 sunshine hits.

hi there,

recently I was using Meldrak's stock rom, my device went dead so I plugged it in to charge it, I went to use it and nothing happened.

I noticed that when I tried to turn it on, it would vibrate on, and then vibrate off straight away.

I can get into apx mode, so I thought I would try and use nvflash/wheelie to see if i could recover it, but on the first step of

"wheelie --blob blob.bin"

it comes up with error 3 receiving response from command.

any ideas on this? I've noticed people have said use a different nvflash and all that but it didn't seem to work for me.

I'm using win7.

I've installed the newest naked drivers

thank's, I think i got all the details.

(my girlfriend is going to kill me if I cant get this going)

addtional info:

as I have somewhat given up for now, my girlfriend has come in and tried to turn it on, my laptop has picked it up like normal, its come up as a portal media drive.

edit#2: somehow managed to get into fastboot, I am able to do the reboot command, so thats something, I think I might just keep putting up my progess, not sure how much further i'll get though.

edit#3: seems i can write with fastboot, but not making any difference, but when i go "fastboot reboot" computer is finding it as a mpt device but drivers have an error by the looks of it. heres a thought, could my screen be broken? id really kick myself if it was.

edit#4: so i just did the steps off http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2800506 post #5, only did the fist part, only getting 1 vibration now, and computer is picking it up as a mpt device but still no screen.

just realised its not going into fastboot now. oh no......
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] das chaos:
If you can fastboot with no display on, there might be some hardware defect.

As a last resort you can try following:

1. reset tab physically (put needle in little hole above hdmi slot)

2. unplug battery for 10 min.

3. fastboot another recovery.img

4. try the hdmi out to an extern screen (your tv f.i.)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] malgora:
Thanks for the reply, unfortunately it will not go into fastboot anymore, as many times as I tried it will only come up as android mpt device, my computer wont even pick that up right, (yellow triangle next to the icon in device manager) only other thing is apx mode but as ive stated i cant wheelie --blob blob.bin just returns error 3. might save and upgrade, to a newer tablet.

thanks for your suggestions though, much appreciated.
