Re: Reflashing Stock Recovery

I think you should actually, but I don't know enough to know how it all actually works.

When I was posting my comment (#28) about how it eventually worked using Autorec, I did something I hadn't considered might have made a difference because I became so frustrated I was throwing everything at it!

BEFORE I ran Autorec (again!), I used TWRP Manager to flash my backed-up Stock Recovery; I think that was important in making Autorec work this time around. You can give it a try – or not.

slight problem

alright so i've rooted mine, not sure if anyone else has this problem

but when my custom rom was starting up for the first time, the

cyanogenmod logo looks like it had be sliced throw the middle by a

sword. when the system booted and took me to the first time set up

processes, i've now noticed that the same sliced effect is through the middle

of the picture from top to bottom. after the phone got going after a few minutes, the

picture was now aligned like it should be. and i've now noticed that whenever

i reboot, the sliced effect shows up until the phone home screen starts

up, and realign after a few seconds in. why does this happen? i used the twrp manager app from the playstore and installed version 2.8.6.0 and used the one-click root method?

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jason1978:
Hi,

I am having issues with SMS messages not appearing in third party applications.

I am on

HTC One M8 (UK) Vodafone

Android 5.0.1

Sense 6.0

ROM Stock 4.19.161.2

For only a few contacts, I get SMS messages for them and they only appear in the stock HTC messaging app. I use Google Hangouts normally. I can always see the full conversation in the Stock app but other third party ones don't show the full conversation. I have tried Handcent and Textra as well, all behave like Hangouts and don't see the messages.

I deleted all SMS to clear out what I had, there is also a single SMS from one contact where I cannot open or delete their message but I can see the first few lines or so in the preview window. This leads me to believe the SMS db is corrupt or something. This may be related but the not being able to delete has been something recent and the not getting the 3rd party apps to see certain messages has been happening for a while.

I hope someone can help, really bugging me now.

I am on Stock at present, device is not rooted and I have not altered the bootloader etc.

Thanks

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] linnetje88:
Hello!

Does somebody know if the edge notifications (colors) works with Whatsapp or only with SMS and calls? And will the s6 edge still have this dual camera function like the s4?

Thanks!

:confused:
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maksharma231:
Dude, if by dual cam you mean clicking pics from both rear and front snappers simultaneously then it has been there from every galaxy since s4, my note 4 has it too. So, it would only be logical to expect that on s6.

And I don't know about the edge notification for whatsapp. That doubt can be cleared after someone gets the phone in their hands :D
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] linnetje88:
Hi, I am not a dude I am a woman ;):angel: , I thought the same as you, about the logical step in the s6 but i've seen many videos on youtube of the s6 and s6 edge and I have never seen this dual camera function on those videos, that's why I am asking this. So you don't know about this dual camera function and you don't know if the colors of the s6 edge works with Whatsapp? But my question is: is there somebody who DO know this :)? Thanks anyway for your reaction! :)

P.s. English isn't my first language so maybe my grammar is bad, I am sorry.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zaki67:
I read that the edge is only for missed calls and SMS ,other programs will go to the standard led notification.

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avilancaster:
I'm curious how they're going to make screen protectors for the edges.... i don't think they could make glass ones, and dry install screen protectors would just peel at the edges the whole time. It would have to be a wet install, but most of those companies don't carry wet install products.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] linnetje88:

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tft:
both these options are the wet/squeegee application, and as you noted, which will likely be the only type of screen protectors that will work well on the Edge.

Hi all!

Long time no post!

Well, after many months with a Blue Angel, learning it inside and out, I upgraded to a Wizard (8125). I'm still quite happy with it, actually.

And a few minutes ago, I just returned with a Hermes (8525)!

Looks like I'll be spending a few days on the wiki and so forth!

But, without further ado, it's time for me to unlock the sucker!

This thread is pretty much meaningless... sorry about that... but I just wanted to say hello and welcome myself to the third HTC forum!

Let's hope for some smooth upgrading! :)

Have a great day!

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] etijburg:
Yeah you need to jump on the Wiki. You need to read up on HardSPL. This will save your device. I would recomend testing CUSTEL, Black and LVSW ROM's They are very stable. I personally use CUSTEL. Upgrading your radio would also double you battery life and improve reception.

Erik
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Michael_514:
Interesting...!

Thanks for the pointers in the right direction.

I just unlocked the device and it worked like a champ.

I figured I would install a few apps using the ROM/Firmware/radio that came with it out of the box... and then, in a day or two, I'll wipe it out, and apply some of the stuff I learn here.

Sometimes, it's good to play with it as it is, just so I can compare upgrades with it.

Meanwhile, I am trying to sync the device using PocketMirror for Business Contact Manager in Outlook, and of course... errors, errors, errors. Same thing happened last time. Total pain.

It's gonna be a lonnnnnng week!

Thanks for the info about HardSPL and the Roms!

So now that samsung decided to remove the battery, it would only make sense to have a portable battery pack handy.

A friend of mine let me borrow his RAVPower 15,000mAh power pack and i have been testing it on my S4 to see how well it works, so far i am impressed with it, but i've only charged the phone twice, trying to see how many charges i can get out of it. will update this thread and post a better review of it later when i get better impressions of it. i also have an brand new Anker power pack i will be testing later on. primarily interested in charge speed rather than charge cycles. will update this post a bit later with more information and power packs.

I found this article linked in another thread over at Android Central http://www.phonearena.com/news/Doub...honeSuits-snap-on-Flex-Pocket-Charger_id66907 and this is a nice pocketable charger that doesn't require you to have a cable on hand to charge.

Here is PhoneSuits page http://www.phonesuit.com/phonesuit-...-smartphones?gclid=CJ35qJvdk8QCFRMatAod43cAAg and its listed at $49.95.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Accessories] tft:
that's quite a bit of money for only 2600mAh, guess it's small so that is a plus, but if you want something that can charge several phones with one charge i would go with something like this:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NWEB49W/

it even doubles up as an actual wall charger.

smaller than a pack of cigarettes and a bit cheaper than that 2600mAh power pack.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Accessories] tayluft:
I have this one. It's 10,000 mah, which is pretty good for the price.

http://www.amazon.com/TechMatte®-10...UTF8&qid=1426265278&sr=1-3&keywords=powerbank

It takes about two hours to charge, and then to charge my dead s5 takes about 1 hr and 45 minutes.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Accessories] Szadzik:
I have a Samsung one with 10000mAh and it is pretty good. With a 2000-3000mAh you are not even going to charge the phone up once, so pretty much useless.

Thanks
[Galaxy S6 Edge Accessories] tft:
forget finding a "fast charge" on portable chargers. highly unlikely you will find one. maybe in the future when someone figures out and implement some kind of voltage step-up regulator as it's a limitation right now since to get fast charge to work you need 9 Volt output and current portable chargers can only output @ 5 volts. it's basically a limitation on the internal li-ion batteries, they can only output 4-5V.

your best bet is to get something like the Anker 16,000mAh for high capacity and pretty fast charging, it can output 5V at 2.1A, it will charge most phones (Galaxy S4, S5) in about 1 and 1/2 hours from about 8% battery left on the phone. you might only shave off only 15-20 minutes using a samsung wall fast charger, so it's really not a whole lot difference..

Anker 16,000mAh 2nd gen:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00N2T7U90/

it will charge an S4 or S5 roughly 5 times with a single charge.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tripper511:
I just got my Verizon Note 4 in the mail today and realized that no one has yet to find a way to root it. Right now I'm using my rooted Verizon Note 2. I'm wondering if I should even bother activating my Note 4 and start using it or should I just hold off and hope someone finds a way to root it in the near future.

What do you guys think?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ragnell:
It's nothing what we think, do what you feel you want. We aren't using the phone, you are, it's ultimately up to you on what you feel you want.

Can you use a phone without root? Can you live without it? Then use the note 4
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blazednova:
I came from the note 2 as well and was also disappointed to hear that root has not been achieved yet. To cope I installed nova launcher and tried to tone down touch wiz as much as possible, which has helped tremendously in my opinion. Even without root this phone is ridiculously fast and has insane battery life compared to the note 2. I can go nearly a week with 7 hours of screen on time without charging it using the stock battery. This phone is amazing even without root access, but when it does finally get rooted it will destroy everything else on the market.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tu3218:
What?? A week? What do you leave it in ultra power saving mode all the time?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jley22:
Shoot, in ultra-powersaving mode you could probably make it almost 2 weeks!

As was said, do what you feel is best. I can live without root, but I don't like it personally. However, it is STILL even WITHOUT root, better than my Note 3, which I still have. I love my Note 4. Admittedly though, I've got it up for sale to see if I can get any biters to try and mitigate the cost of a developer edition. Either way, I can't wait for that root.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tripper511:
Well I guess my main concern is whether I'm going to get hit with an OTA update without realizing it then find out I can't root anymore. As of now, if I start using the phone with stock kit kat 4.4.4 I should be okay right? I guess worse case scenario I'd just have to reinstall all my apps when the Note 4 root comes out.

So maybe my safest bet is to start using the Note 4 but make sure I keep it at kit kat 4.4.4 the whole time?

Yeah that's true. I won't necessarily need to control my cpu speed with setcpu since the Note 4 has 2 power saving modes. There are some older versions of apps I'd like to restore with Titanium backup, and some I'd like to delete with the same program but I guess I can wait until root comes out to do that. I'm gonna miss not having the Freedom app but I'll live.

I do want to install the older version of google maps, the one that had the navigation icon, can I still do that without root?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tripper511:
I looked into the nexus 6. The note 4 still seems like a better phone and the Nexus 6 isn't available for Verizon yet.

Of course if I got the DE version of the Note 4 I'd be set but I really don't feel like dropping $700 on the phone. I just spend $300 to get this with my upgrade.
