I did a 100% clean flash using the factory images. I pay for the hotspot service but when i go to use it it give the error "Your order could not be processed" anyone else having similiar issues?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DebianDog:
Did you flash the Google image or the Verizon image? if its the Google Image I would think you would have to edit the same files you did to make it work in 5. 0. 1.

My hotspot never worked 'out of the box' so to speak. but I am grandfathered in with the unlimited plan so I'm not sure the right answer is.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustusIV:
Ok i just got off the phone with Verizon apparently it they were not billing me and when i spoke to them yesterday about advanced calling they must have turned it off.

So disregard this information.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Picao:
Next question is "why would you pay $29.99 a month for something you can change in the build.prop for free?" I understand that you want to be legal but you are paying for your data already, why pay again? I already give them $292.00 a month for 4 lines and only one grandfathered unlimited, I refuse to give them anymore for my data.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DebianDog:
Yes, I am not sure how it is legal for them to charge you extra for a hotspot. Even if I had plan that had X gigabytes a month I don't think it is very fair to charge me extra to use my X amount of data however I please. Pretty amazing after the FCC gave them the smackdown over this. I guess if you go with the "Share Everything" plan the hotspot is included.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustusIV:
A few thoughts this.... Yeah they shouldn't be able to charge for this but they can charge for the app that enables it.... Second I haven't paid for it in years and always felt weird using it... Started to pay for it.... 10 a month for me for unlimited and I started to use the **** out of it... Worth 10 for the comfort when using it.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Well its common practice to charge extra for tethering even in the UK. You pay for "unlimited data" but that package is to be designed to be used from a mobile handset. As soon as they allow you to tether, that changes from a mobile handset to home broadband and the propensity to massively saturate the cell network increases dramatically when the connecting device is an actual computer compared to a mobile device. I'm in two minds about this, where I believe I should be able to use data for what I want of its unlimited. That said, if everyone tethered, my mobile data experience would be much poorer. It is what it is.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DebianDog:
There is no app, it's built in, if you are on Verizon edit 2 system files and done. It is an option to enable in the pull downs.

Yes people were abusing it back when it was unlimited but those plans only exist on the business side now.

Just add net.tethering.noprovisioning=true to the biuld.prop. No need to pay for tether. I have unlimited data and use the theater for free on my vz nex6
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JulesJam:
What that consent decree was about was Verizon pressuring Google to remove the tethering apps from the play store. Clearly Verizon is not allowed to do that. What is not clear is whether or not Verizon can pressure the device manufacturers to put software on the devices that allow Verizon to do a subscription check and deny the user the ability to use the MHS functionality of the device w/o paying money to Verizon. I suspect if the FCC thought that was illegal, they would have included that as part of the consent decree.

The FCC isn't a court though so to know for sure if a court would find it a violation of the Block C restrictions, someone would have to have standing to sue the FCC to enforce the Block C license restrictions under a writ of mandamus. An owner of a device who was subscriber of Verizon under a legacy plan would have standing to sue but they would have to want to spend the money to sue the FCC. There would be no damages to recover from the FCC so you would be paying out of pocket for this with no chance of a monetary recovery to recoup the costs of litigation.

If you won, all you would get out of it is an order from the FCC ordering Verizon to stop pressuring the manufacturers to put software like that on devices and maybe you could get an order ordering Verizon to work with the manufacturers to update the software on the devices that already have the blocking software on them. And you may lose if your legal arguments aren't strong. So obviously, that is why no one does it.

Having said that, it is PERFECTLY LEGAL for you to mod the device and/or use an app to unblock the devices MHS functionality on your own and there is nothing Verizon can do to stop you.

Yes, the More Everything plans have capped data but MHS functionality is not blocked on the device.

---------- Post added at 11:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:09 PM ----------

That's debatable. However, like I pointed out above, if the FCC thought that Verizon was violating the terms of the block C license restrictions by doing that, I am sure they would have included it in the earlier consent decree. As I also pointed out above, the FCC isn't the last word on what is a violation of the block C license restrictions. But no one else is going to bother doing anything about it.

How is it only $10 for the MHS for you?

---------- Post added at 11:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:19 PM ----------

That's not true. I have 5 UDP lines on a consumer account.

---------- Post added at 11:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:21 PM ----------

Do you know does that stop the subscription check entirely so that a query never gets sent to Verizon?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DebianDog:
Really I can go out and buy an unlimited (consumer) plan on Verizon right now? I don't think so.

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JulesJam:
No but you can't buy a business unlimited plan any longer either.

You said UDP only exists on the business plans. Anyone who had UDP when Verizon eliminated the option can keep it be it a business or a consumer account. But no new UDP lines except during the Apple glitch.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] discstu37:
Quick question. My initial thought was that by toggling adaptive brightness, it would enable the phone to use the full spectrum of backlighting for the current lighting situation. But, I am finding, that you still need to use the brightness slider to determine the max level brightness that adaptive brightness will go to. Is that correct? Because when I push the slider up to enable more brightness, the phone's screen does become brighter. Can anyone confirm this is how it was designed to work? (I am on stock 5.1 with no mods.)
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Marcel_16V:
I bought a HTC ONE M8 model 0P6B120 and came with ROM 4.16.1540.8 (5.0.1).

I want come back to AT&T ROM.

I downloaded

RUU_M8_UL_K444_SENSE60_ATT_MR_Cingular_US_3.42.502.1_Radio_4.0.U606061@41216A_40.34.C35006.02_F_release_407726_signed_2

but Is failing to install.

Bootloader is Unlocked, but it is S-ON.

I tryed turn S-OFF, but firewater is discontinued.

What do I need to do?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] hack14u:
http://xdaforums.com/att-htc-one-m8/development/att-stock-backups-recoveries-otas-t2855966

Or you could pay for Sunshine, and then be able to RUU whatever you wanted to. But since you just want stock ATT follow the link. It has all you need.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
Why would you want to go to the stock AT&T ROM if you are not on the AT&T network (and you are in Brazil)?

Just my opinion, Dev Edition 4.16 ROM is better all around, and especially if you are not on the AT&T network.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Marcel_16V:
Because I read here that M8 improves battery autonomy with AT&T ROM, I would like try it.

Is not true?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
Any claim that a certain ROM increases battery life can be misleading. Every person's usage and specific conditions is different, some folks will see better battery life, so will see worse. AT&T specific radios may make more of a difference, but only on AT&T's network.

I'm on the same Lollipop ROM as you (Dev Edition 4.16.1540) and battery life is great. I don't see any different between this and the AT&T stock 3.42 ROM.

Certainly not worth using "older" KitKat software. Plus be aware that AT&T software also blocks some useful features, like WiFi tethering; and contains a lot of annoying AT&T bloatware and branding.

I highly recommend staying away from stock AT&T ROMs,

especially

if you aren't even using AT&T as your cell carrier.

firewater was discontinued long ago last December.

sunshine is the current s-off method. But doesn't work with hboot 3.19 (which is probably what you have).
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Marcel_16V:
Thanks, man.

Was very helpful. This model wasn't sold in Brazil, so we don't have many developers working in M8.

I'm learning here in XDA, thanks again.

I will forget this idea based in your instructions.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
Probably for the best.

Do you have battery issues at this time? How long do you get on a charge, and how much screen-on time?

If you have short battery life, you might try some other battery saving tips. But with s-on, you won't be able to downgrade firmware or flash a different radio. And no s-off possible for you at this time.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
UPDATE: sunshine has just been updated to support Android 4.4.4 and 5.0 (hboot 3.19): http://theroot.ninja/download.html
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Marcel_16V:
Thanks. Downloading... :good::good::good:
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Marcel_16V:
I'm shocked... 25 bucks?!?

There's a cheaper way?

I don't want free, only more cheaper.

Anyone knows?

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Madcat8686:
Not at this time. Firewater used to work but it is discontinued (it wouldn't work with your version anyway.) $25 is the going rate. Just be glad they don't charge more (because they could.) I surprised you want to move away from the 5.0.1 Dev edition. I know many folks that move to this firmware. The baseband that comes with this one is the one I use and it gets the best reception for me (may be different for you though based on your area.) Oh and oddly enough, I run this firmware as well.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Marcel_16V:
I won't buy SunShine, I will wait another way. So, I can't downgrade. So, it's solved!

Thanks for all your help and attention.

sunshine is currently the only s-off method.

---------- Post added at 12:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:59 AM ----------

I agree. If the OP is looking to resolve a battery drain issue, there are probably better ways than to use "previous generation" software.

Its not even clear whether the OP really has a battery drain problem (I asked, they didn't answer). Or if this is just an instance of "the grass is greener on the other side of the fence" (looking for better, when what they have now is just fine).

My update on sunshine was simply meant to clarify that

if

the OP still wants s-off, its now possible. Not necessarily that they

should

s-off, or for that matter downgrade.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Marcel_16V:
I would like test to have my opinion about. Just test. I don't have any battery problems.

Just "see with my eyes".

The title is pretty self-explanatory.

Rather than going through the fuss of scrapbooking etc. is there a method/software/shortcut that enables direct snapping of the image selected by S Pen into the Gallery ? Does something like that even exist ?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] yazalsaidi:
Hi Everyone,

I've searched around here before making this new thread, but the results i found didnt correspond to the SGN2 (sch i605). Therefore, im just a bit curious about the response time opening apps and whenever accessing system settings etc. For example, whenever i want to access my system settings, it takes about 3 seconds to open. Also, it takes about 3.5 seconds for many other apps to open (like email, Gmail, contacts, etc). Now, im pretty sure this is not normal for a note 2. Just fyi, Im on the N3bula 3 MJ9, with stock kernel. So, apart from this issue, everything else is working great. Please let me know if im just paranoid!! Otherwise, if anyone feels its not normal, then some assistance would be highly appreciated. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] yazalsaidi:
Ok, after searching and searching for a couple of hours, i figured out what the problem was. Strangely, it was the "Power Saving Mode" feature. I read (on a thread) that the GN2 doesnt need that feature turned on, because the battery life is good without it. So i decided to switch "OFF" ... and to my amazement, i saw a difference in the response times when opening my apps! To be honest, i didnt think that switching off power saving mode would solve my problem. I just did it ... This is the thread where i read it http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=37601229&postcount=6. Thanks a lot shawnx1 :good:

Well, hopefully, this thread will help someone else with this issue. Good luck.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] yazalsaidi:
By the way, just wanna say that my response times (when opening apps and settings, etc) have now reduced to an average of 1 second!! So my next experiment is to see the difference in battery life with "Power Saving Mode" switched OFF!! I'll report back tomorrow with the result.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] yazalsaidi:
Battery Life Improved WITHOUT Powersave ...

Heres my outcome when comparing battery life WITHOUT the powersave feature ... and all i can say is, its improved! (See screenshot). Therefore, not only did the response times improve, the battery life improved too .. and both of these improvements were made because i followed advice to switch off "Powersave" ... so Thanks again shawnx1

It took my a while, but thanks to Wugfresh I was finally able to instal 5.1 on my N6. Curious to know what the general consensus is. I've only had it up and running for 6 hours, but has anyone noticed improvement in battery life or memory management?

Thanks.
[Nexus 6  General] AstroDigital:
When I get it.....

For now still waiting.

The battery life has always been great on 5.01

[Nexus 6  General] edved:
Franco's kernel has given my battery some extra life, I hope this update does the same.
[Nexus 6  General] TheLonePoster:
I have yet to get the two bugs that were really getting on my nerves previously in 5.0 and 5.0.1

1- Random restarts. They could happen at any time, but it seemed like they would happen when I was trying to text. I'd try to keep closing my text messenger application (happened with both Google Messenger and Hangouts), but it didn't always help. I'd send a text message, put my phone down and then a few seconds later, notice the Google logo because it was restarting.

2- Sometimes when the screen powers up, all I see on my lock screen is a blank black background, the on-screen back button and the usual clock and what not at the top of the phone. Otherwise, the screen itself is black and I'm basically locked out of my phone until I restarted it. If I was lucky and I was using my Bluetooth headset, if I received a phone call, that would sometimes get the phone to snap out of it and allow me to answer the phone call and then when the call was done I'd get the normal lock screen again.

So far so good with 5.1 *knocks on wood*
[Nexus 6  General] ryancell:
I just flash it this morning and I feel like im still on 5.0.1. I only use 1 wifi connection and 1 bluetooth connection, so a drop down menu doesn't really effect my daily usage since I don't switch them. Whatever they did behind the hood to improve performance/battery will be nice, but haven't had it installed long enough yet to notice anything different really.
[Nexus 6  General] jakebites:
I would also like to know how the 4 cores being force enabled effects the experience before I make the jump.

5.1 is what Lollipop should have been from launch. It's equivalent to Windows 7 replacing Vista. It's that much better.

Sideloaded with adb on my stock att N6. Seems real quick so far. Don't notice any additional drain on battery.
[Nexus 6  General] Evo_Shift:
So far it seems about the same as before to me. However, I am on Sprint and the new radio that prevents duplicate texts is awesome so that part of it makes it seem like a new device.

I play Hearthstone, Kingdom Rush and Clash of Clans on My nexus 6 and they all run fine so far.

I did un-encrypt like before. I cannot comment on battery life yet since it hasn't even been 24 hours for me since I updated.
[Nexus 6  General] mlin:
So far so good. Battery life has certainly improved, it was pretty abysmal for me before. I only experienced one bug that I know of on 5.0.1 where occasionally my status bar and nav bar would disappear and the phone was in a partially locked state. Trying to slide down the notification drawer would show the lockscreen. Hopefully that's fixed.
[Nexus 6  General] Lw00d:
is double tap to wake.. enable in 5.1??
[Nexus 6  General] RW-1:
I'm not on a N6 yet, but my GNex is on 5.1, and to compare (because I've only got 1Gb of RAM here, it's a good test because the margins are so small compared to having 3Gb) the 5.1 update is by far the most stable yet for my device. 5.0 was baaad, but consider how many commits corrected memory leaks and you can tell this is the one. I'm looking forward to getting my N6 with 5.1 on it.
[Nexus 6  General] Fly135s:
Big dialer bug in 5.1. Anyone else getting it?

My screen immediately locks and turns off in the dialer when initiating or answering phone calls. I have no access to onscreen controls until the call is terminated. I cannot hangup, select speakerphone, go to my home screen, etc., until the call ends and Android gives me my screen back.

I'm stock rooted on a 64gb N6 on Verizon. In order to maintain my data and settings I used fastboot to individually flash the new bootloader, radio, system, and boot images.

The same thing happened to an acquaintance of mine who is not rooted and did a fresh install.

Bug reported to Google, ID 160006, if you're interested.
[Nexus 6  General] rester555:
I am noticing a huge performance improvement from 5.0.1 already. Battery life is also better. I am not having the dialer issue like some, but have seen 3 instances of people saying the same thing.
