[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Delvaris:
This happened to me literally tonight. I tried to lock the boot loader which was successful, from there the device would start to root into teamwin recovery. So from there I tired to flash a fully stock rom but the bootloader was locked. And then because you need permission from the OS to unlock the bootloader I was stuck. What I did is from the locked bootloader I ran the stock oem flash from a fresh download and check from wugs with the force flash enabled (make sure everything is right) miracles of miracles it worked and came back to me.

I learned my lesson. Never shall my bootloader be relocked unless my phone is out of my possession. I'm spending the rest of the time making sure that nobody can get to my data. I love the phone, but that data is my life.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK0087:
So basically, we need to confirm that being 100% stock will safely allow the relocking of the bootloader on 5.1 per official instructions from Google. If it can be determined that having TWRP recovery installed is the cause of bricks then users can be instructed to be sure stock recovery is installed before relocking. My own thoughts are that this is a bug of sorts with the new security features of lollipop and I'm sure the talented folks here will get it figured out. I'm 100% stock on LMY47D that I sideloaded. Not sure I can afford to risk my 6 but I offer any assistance I can to help get this figured out.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Some of the "bricks" happened after fully flashing stock, i.e they had stock recovery. They had a locked bootloader, an OS that didn't boot and a recovery that couldn't flash anything. If they had TWRP installed, they could format data and flash a rom.zip no problem.

How to install?

im not saying its your fault for bricking my phone, but how to install i got no clue.:confused:
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Are you saying you flashed this and now your phone doesn't boot?

If you are S-ON, you need to flash the boot.img separately via fastboot, besides just flashing the ROM image... HTC's can be a little tricky.
[HTC Rezound] dood6017:
Thanks! I did i lot more research and found that out. This is 100x better than sense. Thanks though:)
[HTC Rezound] Madhavthakur1995:
i have htc rezound S-ON

please send me a way to S-OFF or

can i install this rom on S-ON and how
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
You can install S-On... Have to boot TWRP via fastboot (not start from device) or manually flash the boot.img via fastboot after flashing ROM and Gapps.

S-Off is easy after a insecure kernel is installed, Google Rumrunner S-Off, but it wont work on stock. If you have Linux and are not scared of the "wire trick" you can use JuopunutBear
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qoncept:
For the last month or so wifi hasn't been working well on my phone. I can connect to all of my hotspots and get decent indicated signal strength, but games and streaming are constantly losing connection. This is on 3 different networks and all 3 work fine on my tablet, so the problem has to be the phone. And I've done a factory reset so it doesn't seem to be a software issue.

So.. is there anything physical/mechanical I can try? Or something else I'm missing? Thanks in advance.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ice5192:
So is there a way to revert back to the stock kernel? Or is there a better explanation why this keneral is acting up?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BACARDILIMON:
Yes flash a stock kernel most devs have it in the op in the thread. If the kernel is not built from the tmobile version it will not work. Or if the rom is from another source then it wont work. You would have to read up on all the differences that roms and kernels have.

Hi all !

I have an HTC ONE M8 (obviously) and my phone is actualy S-OFF (sunshine) but my bootloader is Locked (because i flash a zip with bootloader).

I literaly forget that Unlock bootloader with HTC_DEV Wipe DATA !

So I want to know if I can Root / install recovery whitout HTC_DEV Unlock, I'm S-OFF so why I can't use my phone like I want ?

Thank for answer !

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TikiThePug:
Are you trying to flash the boot image or the recovery image?

Flash boot.img (or whatever the name of the file is):

fastboot flash boot boot.img

Flash recovery.img (or whatever the name of the file is):

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

The thing is, you need to have an unlocked bootloader to do this. If you don't have root access, and you can't unlock your bootloader via HTC Dev, then I don't know if there's any other way to get it done. (Anyone can correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks!)

Nobody can help me ?

I just need a way to boot in a recovery.img :(
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CM17X:
If you don't want to flash TWRP or another recovery and keep your stock one, do this:

Download the latest recovery of your choice.

Place the *.img file into your fastboot folder or anywhere you can find it easily; rename it if possible with a simple name, for this example, recovery.img

Put your phone into fastboot mode and connected to your PC.

Open the windows command into your fastboot folder and make sure your devices is recognized by typing "fastboot devices" without quotations.

Once you make sure your phone is connected, type the following: fastboot boot recovery.img

Your device will restart into the TWRP recovery, then install the SuperSu file previously placed into your SDcard or internal memory.

Restart into system and that's all, you'll keep your stock recovery

Thanks but this work only if HTC bootloader is Unlocked; so i Wiped my data to unlock my devices... I just don't understand the benefit of S-Off -> htc bootloader have to be unlocked at all
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
S-OFF means you can flash older RUU/firmware packages - helpful if the latest RUU isn't available. It also allows you to move from one variation of M8 to another, e.g. Developer Edition to unbranded EU

You can remain locked by flashing a ZIP with just the custom recovery in it via RUU mode - I do this and it works well for the odd time I want to try a custom ROM
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
In addition to the benefits mentioned above (and somewhat related), s-off allows access to partitions that are protected with s-on, including radio, hboot, and others. s-off isn't required for root, installing custom recovery or custom ROMs ; but is required for a number of other things.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CM17X:
I find S-OFF working for me only for adaway and now the Battery monitor widget, and also Cerberus App.

Adaway is not working because it can't overwrite the system partition, neither the workarounds worked for me; Cerberus keep crashing anytime i perform a change on the app and Battery monitor widget doesn't install the system app for the same reason: Can't write the partition.

At this point, at least with the M8, i realize there is no joy by just rooting, you need S-OFF or your phone will be the same as unrooted.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
If you are having trouble with the system write protection mod; flashing just about any custom ROM (that supports your firmware) will do the trick.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CM17X:
Sorry dude, but i'm kinda confused now. Which Write protection Mod is out there? can you please link me to it?

And about custom ROM, i'll prefer to give to the Stock firmware a chance before start messing around with ROM's, once i get tire of it i'll change.

Question here is, would S-OFF grant me access to the system partition in order to install apps like the ones i've mentioned above? (Still interested on that Write protection Mod if exist)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
When you mentioned "workarounds" I thought you were referring to the kernel mod to disable system write protection (and that it didn't work for you). But I guess you were referring to some Adaway workaround (that I am not aware of)?

Here is the kernel mod to disable system write protection (s-off is

not

required for this): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2701816

The OP stopped updating it, so no kernel mod for Lollipop in the top post. But if you read near the end of the responses, he says you can get the kernel module from a custom ROM (and a couple LP kernel modules are posted by other users).
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CM17X:
Yes, i was referring to the AdWay workaround which consist on make a symbolic link (Doesn't work at all).

I'll keep away from the Kernels mods for a while as well. I hope S-OFF can give me solutions for that.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jshamlet:
I'm S-off, BL-unlocked, and rooted - and I did each in that order. As such, I can pretty much do whatever I please on my phone. (Even if ES File Explorer doesn't believe me and pops up warnings, presumably without trying and failing...) However, when I upgraded to Lollisense, I opted to do an RUU update, since I am always rooted and didn't want to risk it.

I didn't modify the stock software in any way afterwards, beyond rooting the install, and I can assure you that AdAway works fine on my phone. It was one of my first installs. All I can take away from that is that stock firmware disables certain write protections when it sees that the device is S-off.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xunholyx:
Unlocking the bootloader allows access to 4 partitions. S-Off gives access to all 47 partitions.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
I believe the system write protection is already disabled by default on stock Developer's Edition (and the only stock ROM to have this feature).

[P3600 General] bradley000:
Hi All, sorry for subjecting you yet again to a question about this but...

Orange have finally dmitted that the M700 has GPS, and has told me I can only use some rubbish called "Webraska" as my GPs program. I wish to use Memory Map, which I have installed. It wants me to set up the GPS, but I have no idea how to do it, and the useful people at Orange don't either.

Any chance any of you guys knows the settings?

Thanks
[P3600 General] NeilM:
Orange are being deliberately obstructive, because Webraska will earn them a small fortune in data charges because each screen/page is downloaded via GPRS rather than being stored on the device.

But, have no fear! You can run any GPS aware navigation program as long as it has a configuration setting (another poster was having problesm with Route66 as apparently you can't configure the GPS port :( )

Memory Map ought to be able to pick up the GPS automatically, but if not, point it to COM9 with a baud rate of 57600 and all should be OK. Same for TomTom, Co-pilot etc.
[P3600 General] bradley000:
Spot on - I had to point the system to Com9 as you mentioned and it found itself staight away. I tried Webraska, and by the time it knew where I was I had become bored and wandered off to make myself a cup of tea. Memory Map, while being extremely hungry for memory to store its maps, found me in seconds.

I don't know why Orange are being so obtuse - half of them don't even know the phone has GPS. The woman I spoke to thought I was asking about the GPRS until I told her the difference.

Thanks buddy!
[P3600 General] mndgz:
route66 is working fine with GpsGate
[P3600 General] minkybunny:
i had the same trouble getting this going with TOM TOM.

use com port 9 and it works first time. takes a little while to pick up satalites though.
[P3600 General] deech:
Not sure what the Com Port 9 issue is about.... when I look at the ports etc, there is a Com 9 BUT there is also a GPS port, I assume internally it "may" be com 9. However TT6.03 recognises the internal GPS "out of the box" and the baud rate seems to be a bit of a red herring, I've adjusted it up and down and tbh cannt see the differnce.
[P3600 General] NeilM:
It all comes down to the way Windows Mobile handles GPS signals, and the version of WM on a device.

Windows Mobile V5 onwards uses a software distribution system called GPSID (GPS Intermediary Driver) which grabs the hardware port (in the Trinity this is COM9, and the Artemis COM4) and sends the signal back out via a selectable soft COM port (by default GPD1). Some apps could identify the software port automatically and connect, but TTN/Co-Pilot/Route66 were unable to initiate a connection, though were able to use an already opened port, as long as this was set for COM8

So, the GPS Settings applet could be set for COM9 Hardware, and COM8 Software ports. You could then set TomTom to COM9 and it would take an exclusive grab of the hardware, or allow another app to start on COM8, and TTN could be set to share COM8 successfully (complex or what :( )

Anyway, with the advent of WM5 AKU3 onwards and WM6, the way the GPSID works seems to have become a bit more logical. The GPS software driver still has to pick up COM9 (of course) but any GPS Application can now still be set to connect to COM9, and the GPSID will intercept the call and send the signal back out over COM9

So, TTN can now remain at 'GPS on COM9' and it will still allow other apps to share the signal.

The baud rate is not important in TTN, but some apps need the rates to match. The hardware side is set at 57600 but the GPSID is 115200; the actual data stream transferred is WAY below this (about 500Bd) so there is nothing to be gained by upping the settings.

[General Topics] Bulkatos:
Hey guys,

this summer I want to travel with my family to italy. Therefor I'm looking for a Data Only Plan (prepaid) plan during the 2 weeks. My aim is to use the card in my Nexus 5 or Nexus 6 as a mobile wifi Hotspot (for 2 phones and 1 tablet). The plan should include min 1GB if Data, the more the better. The maximum price should be around 20€.

Can somebody recommend a provider and plan? Since I do not speak Italian, I would like to avoid to buy a SIM card in the shops. Too high is my fear to suddenly have a long-term contract.

Best case for me would be if maybe someone can buy a card and send it to me to germany (I have paypal). I also have the possibility to buy an italien SIM Card in germany, but the prices are impudently high. Starting with 1GB for 30€ with open end price range.

I'm thankful for every tipp and help to make our vacation relaxing.

I remember a month or so ago I installed a Google Play Edition Lollipop ROM (completely stock but rooted) onto my M919.

Everything was fine until after 2 weeks of use I started to notice tons of lag. Apparently this is a normal problem with Lollipop on all phones.

Has this issue been resolved yet? I've since downgraded to 4.4.4 (KitKat) and I'm just waiting around until Lollipop gets figured out.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] TheLastSidekick:
Wait until after 5.1 because it was fixed after the release of 5.1
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] PanchoPlanet:
The official version released to phones that got carrier updated like my wife's note 3 is running smoothly with no apparent lag and all aspects of phone and features work perfectly, NFC, wifi calling, camera, messaging and so forth.

As for what's available for the S4, unofficial, experimental and half baked setups, you would have to wait for "official" lollipop ota before the bugs get worked out of it.

I'm sitting patiently on my stock /rooted kitkat waiting for ota.

can someone please guide me?

[Huawei Ascend P7] kidi:
Hello,

You must first install stock recovery in order to manually update through Updater > Local update, and yes update.app must be in the dload folder on the SD card. (connect your device to your PC, install adb, reboot it to bootloader using 'adb reboot bootloader', put 'recovery.img' into the same folder as adb, execute 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img', then do 'fastboot reboot', once your device is fully booted go to the Updater app, and do a local update.)

when i execute the adb reboot boat loader command my device won't gets into boat loader but it reboot i tried rebooting into boat loader by flashify app it shows a screen fastboot rescue mode. (phone is unlocked)

i can flash the recovery.

whats wrong ??
[Huawei Ascend P7] g4b3rm4n:
That is exactly what you need - adb reboot bootloader (<- it's one word!) gets the phone into fastboot mode (same as flashify). From here you can flash the recovery. On the PC, run fastboot flash recovery <path-to-stock-recovery>. This will get you the stock recovery on the phone. Now you can use the 3 button method to flash the stock ROM.
[Huawei Ascend P7] FarrukhQadri:
Can you please guide me a bit more actually now my device is not booting into recovery neither into system its stuck on logo and not going ahead. so should i follow these steps only flash stock recovery in fastboot then flash stock rom?

my phone is stuck on logo and it remains on the logo screen for a couple of seconds then it reboots itself automatically and keep doing the same..

Thanks
[Huawei Ascend P7] g4b3rm4n:
You must get it into fastboot mode. If the phone restarts and does not boot into the OS, then it's a huge problem. You may try to restore the phone with HiSuite, but my bet is that you'd better get it to a service - you probably flashed the wrong bootloader.

You might have luck with the recovery though - hold down VOLUME UP and POWER when turning the device on. This might get you ADB, so you might boot into fastboot mode.
[Huawei Ascend P7] FarrukhQadri:
Let me have a try i will get back to you. i had this problem with my previous phone but this time its getting so long i'm worried of it, yes my bad i have flashed a wrong kernel mistakenly it was on the phone so i flashed the wrong file.
