[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eskimosound:
OK is tere an RUU for O2 uk?

So im extracting the firmware at the mo, then I will flash it then I will try and install ARHD 41....

Im right that the O2___002 is an upgraded version of the 001 and its what I need right?

Otherwise im just replacing like for like.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seanie280672:
nope O2___002 is a different cid, you need to use the 001 files, however, its the same as you already have on your phone.

CID is just carrier ID, so O2___001 will be something like O2 UK and 002 might be something like O2 france, no difference in files, just different regions.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eskimosound:
So if its the same and ive got a problem its not the firmware right?

Or is it just an update.

I will tell you this is really easy but telling people how to do it is confusing
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seanie280672:
nope its not your firmware, just checked a cid list, 002 is O2 DE, 001 is O2 UK http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f485/archive-htc-cid-list-1604812/

Make sure of a couple of things when flashing a custom ROM, check for problems other are having with it, by reading some of the later posts is what I always do, just a few pages, also and this is a must, read the OP's flashing instructions, so many people bypass this step, the most important step is to make sure your using the dev's recommended custom recovery for flashing.

I always full wipe before flashing anything, so in TWRP first factory reset, and then goto wipe - advanced - select everything except your internal storage and SDcard, and then always reboot back into recovery after the wipes before flashing the rom, it will nag you and say you have no OS installed, ignore it and Do Not Intall to SuperSU, the custom rom flash will do that for you.

During the rom installation, again I always select full wipe when given the option, you then know you have a clean slate to build the rom on.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Your firmware is already current, and should work with latest ARHD. Blinkfeed not showing image is a known issue reported by others.

No need to mess with RUUs or firmware zips.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eskimosound:
Well I had ardh 41 running perfectly so somethings gone missing and why doesnt ARHD 34 have wifi?

Guys it all just doesnt work properly, it did until I wiped the system and reinstalled fresh rather than over the top of factory
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seanie280672:
maybe WiFi was a problem in 34, ive only just come over to the M8 today from the M7, I cant live with s-on devices, so the first thing I had to do was unlock, flash a custom recovery, root, and run sunshine to get s-off, I then wiped and put Insert Coin on mine, no problems so far, I was running the same rom on my M7, the stock rom never really got a look in, only booted up to run sunshine.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eskimosound:
Hi OK that sounds good can you explain a bit more...

Im not a n00b but this is the first time I've done S-Off...

Im rooted, using twrp with S-Off, ive had a look at other roms but I like ARHD.

As I said Ive been runing them just fine until I cleared internal memory, I know that if y6ou delete the misc file then thats what causes te problem but i thought a reinstall is just that?

Anyhoo, I want Jellybean and sense 7 on my phone.

Is the jellybean update even official;?

i KNOW sENSE 7 HASNT COME OUT FOR THE m8
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seanie280672:
I think you mean Lollipop dont you ? Jellybean is a Sense 4 rom not a sense 7......

a wupe shouldnt cause any problems as when you flash a rom, it all gets put back on, fresh and clean.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eskimosound:
I thought that but its not working....

Mmmm, Ive just used the H/K mod and that worked perfectly!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
You must mean Lollipop (as another mentioned). Jellybean is older than KitKat, and has never even been on this phone. Remember, the Android "dessert" nicknames are in alphabetical order by first letter:

I = Ice Cream Sandwhich

J = Jellybean

K = KitKat

L = Lollipop

Etc.

Yes, the Lollipop update (Android 5.0) itself is official, and has been out for some time (January) for most carriers. Sense 7 is a port from the M9, as you seem to already know.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eskimosound:
Sorry yep I mean lollipop, but it still doesntsort outmy problem, none of the roms after kitkat work,I am going back to a stock dump as we speak, then I am going to build up without deleting anything and see if that works...

Man alive its always a real pain
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eskimosound:
SOLVED!!! It took all day!!!

OK guys, I did update the Firmware, the way I understand it there are two firmwares for my device, mine was stuck in Kit-Kat firmware, so I needed the next...

The two firmwares are for

both

UK O2 and DE O2

They take it from 1.54 to 2.22

AND

from 2.22 to 3.32

I might be wrong but that's how I read it, I installed the latter and it works.

Anyhoo, I then formatted the data as Einwoods suggestion and voila!

All working perfectly!

Thats only taken me from 10am this morning to work out and it was all thanks you lot!!

You know I bought the XDA developers book and its still way too complicated

Anyways tomorrow I'm going to spend all day getting Super CID, getting rid of the red writing and trying to get a Faux Locked and S-On bootloader!!!

Wish me luck because I'm going to be asking you lot for help!!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
So it seems that the initial notion was correct, that firmware was to blame. Strange, the hboot & radio info from getvar (post #12) indicated you were already on Lollipop (software 3.x) firmware. All I can think is whatever means you got there (firmware or OTA update) did not install completely correctly, and there was a module that wasn't updated properly.

I have been looking around online for a solution to unlock my G3 (LS990) and I found this software: http://octoplusbox.com/en/ and I really want to try it but I can't figure out if it is safe or not. It is free so I figured it is a deal ( if it works). Maybe someone can tell me if they use it if it is safe to install on my computer (windows 7). My Norton 360 just expired so I am just being a little hasten.
[Member-Found Deals] PantsDownJedi:
You're 1000% more likely to get a answer if you post the question in the Q & A section for your phone.

Perhaps it was meant to go there and the server screw up yesterday moved it? I've run into some confusing scenarios ib the past two days that I think was a result so thought I'd quote you and reply with the benefit of the doubt before the really emotional people got to it.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DragosPaul:
Hi. I have a NOTE 4 running ANK4 android 4.4 rooted with CWRP.

My question is: In order to flash a STOCK 5.0.1 tar from sammobile, what are the steps I need to follow?

Do I simply have to get the tar file and flash it through Odin?

Do I have to unroot/remove custom recovery first?

Do I have to factory reset and reset cache?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willcor:
hi,

your first question is correct

if you flash you will automatically lose root and recovery.. (no need to unroot and remove custom recovery..)

read my post #2 in this thread.. see link

lastly it up to you if you want to factory reset etc.. it is not necessary

good luck
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdm9mm:
Download the file from www.samfirmware.com, make sure you have the CORRECT firmware for your SPECIFIC phone model.

While you are on the download page, there is an instruction, which I copied below:

Instructions:

Extract (unzip) the firmware file

Download Odin v3.09

Extract Odin ZIP file

Open Odin v.3.09

Reboot Phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)

Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin

Add the firmware file to AP / PDA

Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked

Click the start button, sit back and wait few minutes

You don't need to root or do anything, just MAKE SURE that "Reactivation Lock" under Settings>Security is DE-ACTIVATED.

You don't necessarily have to do a Reset, but if you are having problems with force closing apps, battery drain etc... then do a Reset.

Good luck

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DebianDog:
I used to do a lot of picture and video compression in the past and have seen this issue before. Without getting all technical it has to do with how the image was compressed and the high level of resolution this phone has.

I would bet money if you could get the original PNG or PSD file and converted it yourself using 100% quality for the jpeg you would not see it.

Exchanging these images back and forth and recompressing them is not helping either[emoji23]

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ooofest:
I am seeing banding in the original Bjork image on my BenQ 24" display due to what I suspect is a lot of compression at that resolution. It's easily evident in the background when viewing the whole image and the feathery items are more obvious when magnifying.

The exact same banding (i.e., not worse) seems evident on my Nexus 6, either using Google Photos or Perfect Viewer app.

EDIT: I downloaded and viewed the 8K JPEG version of "Tropical Beach" at this HDR page, and again the effects of dithering, etc. looked the same in full screen and when magnifying between my PC display and the Nexus 6 screen.

This used to be a big thing in Android way back in the day... but it wasn't the screen/display, it was the APP causing it. You could open a picture in the Browser, then open it in the Gallery, and there would be branding in the picture in the gallery, but not in the browser.

[HTC One X] subharmonic:
Ok - so some of you might remember my thread from a few weeks back.

I had an assortment of issues - notably a System 7 error when I tried to install CM11.

I read through some of the copious amount of threads on here, and found that Status 7 error may result from not having correct radio installed - or some other software component that is required for the installation to go through properly.

So - I thought - what about trying CM10 again, rather than CM11.

This time, it seems as if the ROM has installed fine.

No errors in installation log etc.

Booting the phone throws up a problem, and this makes me think there's a hardware issue.

Sometimes it will boot to the CM10 welcome screen -and hangs.

Sometimes it hangs on the HTC quietly brilliant screen.

Sometimes it hangs during the CM10 boot screen.

Sometimes the CM10 boot screen animation runs as though the screen were a CRT with a dodgy signal coming in from the aerial.

Once - it loaded to the welcome screen, crashed and the phone emitted a loud, very high pitched squeal, and wouldn't stop until it was switched off...

So - any ideas what could be the problem here?

Hardware? I could take a look inside it, if this thing is a lost cause otherwise...

[HTC One X] subharmonic:
Yeah I've flashed the boot.img from the ROM.

Ok - something interesting happened there just there.

It's not been switched on for a few days - booted up great - got to CM10 set up screen - clicked Great Britain English - and on next screen it froze - horizontal lines across the screen, and high pitched scratchy sound (sort of similar to dial up modem sound, only higher pitched).

Just tried to flash boot.img again, and erase cache - crashed on HTC screen.
[HTC One X] subharmonic:
When it's cool - the phone def seems to boot up better - gets to the CM10 welcome screen ok - but when I try to do anything it then crashes - those weird horizontal lines through the graphics.

The more times the phone is rebooted, the less likely it is to get to the CM10 screen and just hang on HTC screen.
