Bats is a live wallpaper but also a game. You can destroy the bats ghost (they have a golden aura) and get a point for each one but be careful: you don't kill the black bats. You would get a penalty! You can also check how many golden bats you have destroyed looking at the statistics page.

I attach a link to youtube video and an apk to have your opinions. The project is a beta release yet so I need your feedbacks.

instruction how to access it is in one of the comments there, but i'll paste it here:

1. install "Activity launcher" app from store

1.1 link to the app for lazy people :D > https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.szalkowski.activitylauncher

2. open "Activity launcher" app

3. from the pull down menu tap on "All Activities"

Once that loads

4. scroll all the way to "Settings" and click to expand it for more options

5. scroll down to "Access lock"

6. long press "Access lock" and create shortcut (it will create a shortcut on your homescreen for easier access)

7. go to your homescreen and press the icon you've created.

now you can turn off/on the per app permissions (if you ever used "App ops" or "X-privacy" you know what this is for - else - google for more info or skip this)

currently tested and working on the following variants (& roms)

- d802 (cloudy 2.2 rom)

- ls980 (optimus g3 rom)

please report if you have a different variant(s) / rom(s) so i can update the OP...

Solved OTA Lollipop update fails

1. Copy the OTA update from downloads to your computer.

2. Extract Firmware.zip from the OTA update archive.

3. Extract recovery.img from the firmware.zip archive.

4. flash recovery.img using fastboot flash recovery.

5. reboot

6. Unroot using SuperSU (option in settings).

7. In Settings->about-Software update search for updates and install OTA as usual.

8. Done.

The error message I get is " /system/etc/permissions/platform.xml" has unexpected contents. Installation aborted. What do I need to do now to return /system/etc..... to stock. Thanks.

So, I since found out by searching es file explorer that there was a platform.xml.bak file (original backup) so tried to delete platform.xml to replace with backup one. Of course, I unrooted now. So reflashed twrp to flash superSU again. Back into es file explorer, this time with root, deleted platform.xml then renamed platform.xml.bak to platform.xml. unrooted, flashed stock recovery and now lollipop ota update successful.

late to the party but i have a tip

I got into this same situation, but have no idea how to use adb making solving this problem very difficult.

For others with this problem, try repairing it with HTC sync manager. I plugged my phone in and opened the sync program and right away clicked repair. I'm pretty sure it just downloaded the latest android version and reinstalled it., but I found it simpler than all these adb commands that idk how to use yet.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aulakh3d:
solution

You need to update your recovery .

1. Once you get a update notification tap install later

2. make sure USB debugging is enabled and connect it to a pc via usb cable.

3. on the pc open file explorer and find your device.

4. on the pc go to the download folder located on your phone's internal storage

5. There you will find a ota.zip file copy and paste it on your desktop

6. extract the zip on your desktop next you'll find a firmware.zip extract that as well.

7. download one m8.rar and extract it and open the program.

8. click your own recovery and click flash recovery once it asks for an img file navigate to the firmware folder and choose recovery.img

9. once that finishes reboot your phone and try the update again.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
Your first post in this thread asking about recovery ... now your second post talking about "same error" ..... what error ? When you have error that usually means your stock ROM is not stock enough, some files were modified.

The error log will show ... what's your Stock ROM ? You also never tell this before.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZumerSandro:
Sorry, i'm writing in multiple sites and I am messing up things, I'll try to be more clear.

I am on stock Sense 5.0.1, I want to upgrate to Marshmallow. Before the Sense 5.0.1 I was using a GPE ROM, so I used to use TWRP but at the moment I'm on stock recovery.

Now, every time I download the OTA and try to install it the phone shut down and the installation process starts. But then it suddently stop and give me an error. I discovered that this error basically means that I don't have the right recovery to process the OTA, so I tried to reflash the 4.16.401.13 and it keeps not working. So I tried the 4.16.401.10, and of course same problem. So I discovered this thread and read about this thing that I can take the recovery.img that I need to complete the OTA from the OTA archive itself. But I can't unzip the recovery.zip file because both windows and 7zip give me an error. I feel kinda lost in all this mess.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
I repeat again what I said earlier ... there is an error log in recovery when it stops installing OTA ... that log will tell what the actual error is, not necessarily wrong stock recovery... and still you don't tell what your stock ROM is.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZumerSandro:
Sorry, now I'll try to give you all the informations.

Check the 2 photos in the attachements of this answer.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
See the error is nothing to do with recovery.img .. you need to use 4.16.401.13 or 6.12.401.4 recovery.img, 4.16.401.10 recovery.img won't work.

Your error is - "/system/bin/app_process32" has unexpected contents. This suggest your stock ROM was rooted before, unrooting it won't fix the problem.

What I can suggest is restore the system partition only from a non-rooted (never rooted) 4.16.401.13 backup then try again. If still fails due to some data info, then you need to restore the whole boot, data & system from the non-rooted 4.16.401.13

You can get the non-rooted 4.16.401.13 backup in my thread linked in my signature.
