[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smartpal:
my phone is unlocked international m8_ul(HTC__J15) having stock Android 6.0 with root, S-Off and unlocked bootloader.

I want to go back to stock kitkat for reasons that might sound stupid but i was trying to unlock some LTE bands by using QPST and QXDM without any luck. when ever i write nv values and reboot the device the nv values revert to original values. All the tutorials were written around are few years ago and are for kitkat. So i was thinking to revert to kitkat and try my luck.

So can i use kitkat twrp backup(3.28.401.6) while i am still on marshamllow?

I am using latest version of twrp.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
I maybe wrong .. what I understand is you can't unlock LTE bands on a GSM device. Only can do with CDMA.

You can restore KitKat backup on Marshmallow firmware but it's best to have KitKat firmware too.

Same M8 GSM device sold in india has LTE band 40(2300MHz) support. May be the hardware is there but not enabled. Just wanted to try my luck. :fingers-crossed: ;)

Is it possible to get a custom Marshmallow firmware.zip for CID__622 MID 0P6B3000?...this will be really helpful since reverting back to stock ROM just to get updates is just too stressful for folks like us who just want a firmware update
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
Almost all htc signed MM firmware are available on post #5.

If you need a customized firmware, you can do it on your own as only you know what kind of customization that you need.

And this thread is all about stock ROM (backups) and htc signed MM firmware, no custom ROM and no custom firmware as these will not meet the purpose of this thread.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Carlos DCP:
How to install firmware :

1. You need the drivers : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64926362&postcount=4

2. If the bootloader is UNLOCKED (for S-On device only), relock it with commands:

fastboot oem lock

fastboot reboot-bootloader

If the bootloader is LOCKED, skip the above.

3. Download the official signed fw_x.xx.xxx.x.zip

4. Put the device in bootloader/fastboot mode and connect to PC, run these commands

fastboot oem rebootRUU

fastboot flash zip fw_x.xx.xxx.x.zip

you'll see ERROR/FAILED, repeat

fastboot flash zip fw_x.xx.xxx.x.zip

fastboot reboot-bootloader

then you can proceed the next step that you need to do like installing a RUU

or fastboot reboot (to directly reboot device if you already have a working OS)[/QUOTE]

Hi Team. For install firmware

My bootloader is UNLOCKED y S-off.

Question: need relock bootloader with CMD commands???

Thanks for you support.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahmed.ismael:

Guys, I have a strange issue, 3 hours of IDLE time on my phone and when you call my number from other phones, it says it is Switched off!!! The network signal is full, strangely if i callback someone it rings, and then if you call me back, my phone rings normally!

I do not know what the issue might be here, I have tried resetting the phone, reinserting the SIM card. Changing the Networking setting to only GSM, but nothing helps!

This is not good, and it is causing me lot of headache, as I am missing important Client calls :( anyone with a remedy?:(

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evonc:
Sounds like a network issue. Make sure you don't set the network mode to automatic/auto connect. Other than that, I can't think of much.

Edit.

Check your edge preferences and turn off any of the flip to mute functions. Also double check call rejection in Phone to see if it's rejecting calls for some reason.
[MX Player] elevul:
And how to change it?

It wasn't a problem on the N7000, but now on the N910F's 1440p screen the 1080p videos get upscaled with WAY too sharpening, ruining the image. Is there any way to use another scaling with less sharpening of the image?
[MX Player] vivan000:
There should be no sharpening since it uses what system uses and system uses bilinear. There're no options in MX player that affect scaling quality.

I see 2 possible cases: either display does this or this is post-processing apllied to media (manufactures love this thing, every PC gpu has "image worsener" options. Even my Z3 Compact has those). Try checking device settings for any kinds of "display/image enhancement" that could be turned off.

Does this happen when no scaling is happening (use bottom right button to select "100%" scaling mode)?

Does this happen when using S/W decoder?

I'm using this video to test scaling algorithms, can you try playing it (at default and 100% zoom) and take screenshots?

http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=75458987026854998049 (this will be played using H/W decoder)

http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=00692852724795150552 (this should force using S/W decoder)
[MX Player] elevul:
Here it is, sorry for the delay.

HW:

http://puu.sh/hktEe/c21a7bd661.jpg

http://puu.sh/hktHg/c6e3a073a7.jpg

SW:

http://puu.sh/hktHs/63ddfbeb82.jpg

http://puu.sh/hktFY/947030aba1.jpg

Also, bonus:

http://puu.sh/hktNi/f47eab21d6.jpg

http://puu.sh/hktM0/b2962844b7.jpg

It does appear that the issue is not the scaling, but it's the decoding or something after that that ruins the quality (for example the vertical lines seen on full colors). I tried disabling every "image enhancement" I found in the settings of the Note4, without much success. :(
[MX Player] vivan000:
First, I forgot to mention that by default SW decoder uses 16-bit (5/6/5-bit) RGB which is really bad (long time ago most of the devices couldn't handle 24-bit color but those times passed). Settings -> decoder -> color format (at the bottom) -> RGB 32-bit (YUV is actually faster and better, but less predictable).

Images for reference:

bilinear / cropped (it didn't like height of the video not being mod8 and cropped it a bit, my fault) bilinear

bicubic (just for a reference - how sharp scaler actually looks) / cropped bicubic

So it still bilinear, and indeed there's some sharpening - but it's very hard to spot without high magnification.

100% / cropped and resized back to match HW

Well, my conclusion is that it sharps everything for a tiny amount, but only after scaling (usually postprocessing does it before). And it seem to affect SW mode too... It makes me wonder if does this for everything on a screen.

However those vertical lines are really weird.

Usually postprocessing works only with hardware decoding because it's easy for a driver to mess there (after the decoding, before giving the picture to a renderer). In SW mode player works like any other app (like game, browser or image viewer), system doesn't know that it plays video.

Here's what my Z3 Compact could do: before / mode1 / mode2. Now that's terrible ;) Luckily it could be turned off.

If you don't mind I have another test (based on http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/sharpness.php), to test if it sharps everything.

That image is made that way that even tiny amount of sharpness is visible. If everything is ok - it must look solid gray, if sharpening happens - some squares become brighter (there're examples on that site). But I'm not sure if it would be representative on such screen because it has non-RGB subpixel layout.

http://s29.postimg.org/ql7twm0mt/1440p.png (download it and open in image viewer, without zooming - it's 2560x1440 and should be displayed as 1:1).

1) Does it look solid or some squares are lighter/darker?

2) Could you take a screenshot of it (of this picture opened in image viewer to see if it sharps it)?

As for vertical lines... if you want I could provide a build of a library that I'm working on. It's works like a game (doesn't rely on media system) and should be able to render/display image perfectly unless system itself does something weird. If it does - and there's nothing in settings that affects it - then nothing could be done (except talking with samsung support and hoping that they'll fix it). If it doesn't - then there's some hope.

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deucalion0:
Hey guys, over the past 5 days of using this phone I have noticed a few odd things. One that is really annoying is some apps just close and open again. Not an Android force close, there is no notification, the app just stops and instantly restarts. Apps this happens the most with is The Chive and Gmail. I've used a lot of other apps but these two are the worst. And Gmail is an important app, I use it a lot.

Has anyone else had this issue? Any ideas what could be causing this? Along with the poor battery, this is making a great piece of hardware unusable. Any info on this would be appreciated.

Cheer's!!!
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hkdmjack:
I haven't noticed your issues, but I have had very inconsistent results with video streaming apps from TV and cable networks and my cable provider (xfinity from comcast in the US) that range from force closing to just not being to load videos.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thedisturbedone:
Has never happened to me in Gmail. I use it a lot with 3 different accounts. But force closes are closely related to memory leaks that are very abundant in 5.0. But since others dont seem to be experiencing this issue, I'd recommend a flash of the latest firmware and a complete wipe (if possible). Do you have any memory manager apps? If so that could be an issue too.

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mistix:
I have this issue (crashing apps randomly /w no error) in particular music apps like DI.FM, Google Music, and Audible while driving. The phone is not (directly) in use by me as I use a 3.5mm or Bluetooth an initially pressing the pay button before starting my trip. This is frustrating because it randomly crashes (no notification) while I am busy driving and I have to pull to the side of the road and start it again (safety). Sometimes the crashing will not happen for hours at a time (and I enjoy the audio), other times it happens every few minutes (and I get fed up and give up on the phone wanting to put it under the tire).

I was trying to find a good way to log the error but I am too inexperienced and just go frustrated after a while as I could not find a way to log it while it was in use (playing audio) during my transit.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Witchunter:
Hi guys.

The phone is Xperia S.

I have installed CWM and wiped all partitions (except for sdcard) in order to prepare the phone for CM12.1 install.

Now I understand that my CWM version is outdated (5.5.0.4) and I need to install TWRP (which I had had installed before).

The problem is that when I plug in the phone, Windows registers it as MTP USB Device and I cannot uninstall/change drivers. adb devices lists no devices and I cannot do anything with the phone now.

Also, I have twrp.img on sdcard, but I'm not sure how to install it from CWM. When I was running TWRP before, adb was working fine.

So, I guess my problem can be fixed in two ways:

Install TWRP from CWM. I have twrp.img on sdcard, but CWM won't let me install it, I can't see it listed in file list.

Uninstall/change drivers for "MTP USB Device" so that adb works again.

Any help would be appreciated, as I cannot install anything on my phone now, and all I have is a CWM recovery on it.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
The MTP is fine, You don't need to uninstall it. Try following the method from here to flash the ROM.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Witchunter:
Thanks for the suggestion.

When I turn off the phone, press and hold UP button and then connect the phone to PC, the blue light lights up as it should. However, after ~10 seconds, blue light goes away and the phone goes to CWM recovery.

Therefore, I'm unable to execute adb commands during this short time period.

How to prevent CWM from starting up while in fastboot mode?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
Then Your fastboot drivers are not installed.

Disconnect Your phone from PC.

Open command prompt and run this command:

SET DEVMGR_SHOW_NONPRESENT_DEVICES=1

and then open device manager, Choose View, Show Hidden Devices. Then uninstall any device with Xperia S and/or android in it. Then install the flashtool, fastboot, and every Xperia S related drivers from drivers pack in flashtool. I see that You use Windows 8/8.1, hence You need to follow a different method to install drivers. You can find that method here. Then follow the method I mentioned before.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Witchunter:
While waiting for your answer, I found the video detailing instructions to install drivers on Windows 8.1 x64:

Nonetheless, thank you for your answer, now I can continue to try to install CM12.1.

Theres no kbd and buttons light at all.

BKL1: is activated with lightsdk.dll.

Is it possible to have control of that dll functions?

I am no programmer, i just looked into hexes of that dll... there are names of few functions, that if controlled by external program, could override default lights behaviour.

So, is it real?
