For the most stable result, I would recommend tot-ing to a stock version of your choice (ZVE[most recent], ZVD, ZVB, ZVA, ZV8, ZV7). Make sure to backup any important files and data to a pc before doing this, because it will be lost.

Use this thread and remember to follow all instructions to a T, otherwise you could brick your phone:

You will have to re-root and re-flash recovery after doing this with the same method you did originally to flash optimusg3 rom.

So my girlfriend works at Verizon and just told me that even if you buy a phone at full retail you can't keep unlimited data. I wanted to start a discussion of everyone's thought on this and if this will make you move to a different provider or if you will still stay. (I will post more when she tells me more information about this)
[General Topics] HTID_Pyro:
I have the HTC one m8 and am content with this phone for the moment but as soon as I want a new one I think it might be time to move to a different provider. I find it unacceptable for a company to not let you keep your old plan when you pay full retail price for a phone.
[General Topics] methuselah:
i don;t understand USA providers but still i try to explain why

I will be sorry if i share whatever info on this will be of my knowledge. Well you all know there is long debate all over the world regarding net neutrality. Now you goona ask me why i am talking about is here. There is a reason for this . Well all those companies in the beginning dependent on calls and sms revenues. But as the penetration of data increased their voice and sms services are ate by Whatsapp and Skype or Viber like services. In countries like america the data speeds are so decent that one can talk flawlessly without worrying about slow data networks. Well now everybody will say me that what is special about if they provide such services as high data speeds, customer has to pay for them. Well american and other developed countries markets are very creative. When these problems arise they started rolling new plans. Well unlimited plans i think costs too much and it hurts the revenues and the unlimited user even if paid full amount of fees for plans still uses too much juice from the network. So i think this will happen some day. Carriers will keep on removing these full unlimited data plans. So better switch if you can.

and most important thing which i can think is that when you pay full price of the phone, you can unlock your device.. At that you are free to use whatever stuff you want to run on yor phone. So the service provider now can not force legally to use their predetermined crap installed on their phones.....

Greetings everyone, I am a new member and hope to become more involved in the community.

I have installed many custom ROMs on my Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005 in the past. On my latest attempt to install a custom ROM the recovery software went all funny. The phone would turn on and boot directly into recovery mode (displaying the text "RECOVERY BOOTING... RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING. Set Warranty Bit: Recovery"). It wouldn't go any further, meaning that I never get to see the actual menu where I would be able to clear cache, factory reset or install firmware. It then immediately dies and starts up again into the same screen. I tried using all the hardware buttons (i.e. booting into safe mode and recovery mode), the phone doesn't react at all. When plugging it into a PC there is also no reaction on the PC. The phone simply continues to boot into the recovery screen and then die before reaching the options menu.

PLEASE HELP, I have been trying to fix the issue for two days now. Any advice would be highly appreciated!

Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. Can you boot into download mode? It sounds like you'll have to flash the stock firmware in Odin. If you run into problems you can ask for help herehttp://xdaforums.com/galaxy-note-3/help
[XDA Assist] TechEnthusiastMatt:
Originally the phone would not boot into download mode at all. It was essentially hard bricked. After a couple hours of messing with it, trying to get some kind of reaction out of the device, I managed to get it to boot into download mode. I actually managed this by pulling out the battery and pushing Power + Volume Down + Home whilst almost jump starting using the battery (connecting the battery connectors without fully putting the battery in to the phone). This managed to wake the phone into download mode similar to what a USB Jig would have.

Solution was found purely by luck.

Hi All,

Welcome to the Rom-Packer "Squeezer" module!

This was originally included with my Wizard Rom-Packer kitchen, but as the technology is applicable to most programs installed in the Wizard (or actually most devices), in either storage memory or SD card, I have decided to release it to the wider community of non-cookers.

This program uses the open source program UPX to compress .exe files. The compression is quite remarkable. Generally the files end up less than half their original size. I have tested the process on all the main Office programs, and they work fine. The loading speed of the programs is actually improved, because the storage memory is so much slower than ram memory, so the time gained by transferring a smaller amount of data from the storage memory to ram when you run the program is more than enough to make up for the time spent uncompressing in ram.

The larger programs really seem to "pop" in comparison. Besides the Office programs, I have tested it on apps such as: eWallet, iSilo, ListPro, and Skype and found it works well, speeding load times with a smaller storage and SD card footprint.

The process "may" work with some .dll files as well, but I haven't tested them as extensively. A few programs will not work well in this mode, or refuse to load, so keep the original copies as backups. You will also find a few programs (adobe reader, pocketXpdf) which have already been compressed with this technology!

So, here's what you do:

1) Make sure the original program is installed correctly.

2) Locate the .exe file which was installed in Program Files in your PDA or the SD card.

3) Save a copy of this file somewhere in case it doesn't work.

4) Copy all the .exe files you want to compress into the SqueezeRoom directory.

5) Run Squeezem.bat

6) Take the compressed files out of the SqueezeRoom directory and replace the originals with those.

7) Run the program in the usual way. If all is well, Great! you're done!

8) If there's a problem, you can try a soft-reset before undoing the experiment.

9) If that doesn't help, copy the copy you made in step 3 back to the original location, overwriting the compressed copy.

Of course, I strongly recommend that you run a good backup utility, such as SPB backup, before beginning, just in case you make a big mistake somewhere.

Have fun!

Have you tried compressing dll files before?? I read the readme file...but since you wrote it, have you tested them.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] edhaas:
Re: dll files

I tried one, but it didn't work. According to the UPX documentation it sometimes works on .dll files, so if you find a large one it works with, let us know!

Regards,
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] freeyayo50:
This program is amazing!!! I can see a notable increase in performance on my device. I compressed about almost all my apps (about 25-30 exe's) and about 5-8 dll's. So far the dll's that I have compressed have been working.

You can see a huge increase in performance the bigger the exe file is. Apps like Wisbar/WAD start up about 3-4 sec faster,

Opera about 3 sec (4MB compressed down to 1.7MB)

AIM 2 sec faster

Camera.exe maybe 1 sec (I couldn't really tell the difference)

Verichat 2 sec

FoxitReader 2-3 sec

IM+ 3-4 sec

SPB Imageer 2-3 sec

Resco Radio 2 sec

Total Commander 1-2 sec

Midlet Manager(jmm.exe) 2 sec faster

and calculator.exe seems to pop open :).

When it comes to games, which usually are 2-4MB in size, they open 4-7 sec faster than normal. One of my games was 4MB than shrunk down to about 1.4MB after compressed.

This program also saves a crazy amount of space as well. My main memory free space before was 6.5MB, than after compression, increased to 11.8MB :)

It also seems like there is more free RAM than normal, but I'm still veiwing that. Posted some SS of compressed file sizes.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] freeyayo50:
I just discovered that .cpl(Control Panel Extension) files can also be compressed. I just compressed SoftKeyAppletEx.cpl and ThemeManager.cpl for those who know what they are. They still work after compression. There not that big but I get about 50-60% compression from them.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] edhaas:

Wow, freeyayo50!

Thanx, just tryin to help out the community :).

And yes, I am using a 1GB Mini SD card. I use it to hold most of my apps and all my music.

I dont understand why developers dont use this. So far everything that I have compressed has been working perfectly fine. I just luv how much space this thing saves.

main OS dlls and exe SOULD NOT be compressed with upx.....this was tested ages ago by rom cookers it will cause problems....true some files can be upx you should leave the OS files alone.

Thanks for the tip, faria!

(Translation: Avoid messing with the sys\os subdirectory, and be careful with the others. Most of these apps are small, so you wouldn't be gaining much anyway.)

NP.also after upxing a file you will be unable to edit its resource's if you ever need to.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] igalan:
It's on Opera's install directory: \Program Files\Opera\opera.dll. The exe is a small 42 KB file.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] freeyayo50:
Oh ok. Opera 8.65 Beta does not have that file.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] mattk_r:
I got so much stuff on my phone I didn't know where to begin, and now there's another file type to compress?!

I actually just built a new rom that didn't use all of the available space - though it's really hard not to use it... It's like having an empty garage, you just gotta get stuff to put in it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] edhaas:
It's neat to see how quickly the bar has been changed in building roms for the Wizard. Only a few weeks ago, we had to struggle to fit in the entire WM6 operating system. Most people were leaving out voip, transcriber, and other pieces that were not utilized much in favor of more widely useful freeware and shareware that would increase the functionality for more users than the original OS. Now, since people have started using Rom-Packer, we are able to fit the entire useful OS in the rom, and seemingly all the most useful 3rd party apps. Now, like you, I'm looking around for things to add which actually make sense for a general purpose rom. I guess if its not one problem its another. ;)

(also copied to the Rom-Packer thread, it seemed to "fit" there.)

You might want to check out THIS WIZARD I put together awhile back. It's been kinda ignored, but it works fantastic. It does DLLs EXEs MUIs and CABs, and then tests them to see if they will uncompress. If you try it, let us know how well it works for you. Thanks

[ONE Android Development] Spannaa:
Thanks for building these :good:

A heads-up:

I flashed your 0522 over the 0518 nightly and the flash failed on the verify trustzone assert:

assert(oppo.verify_trustzone("TZ.BF.2.0-2.0.0109","TZ.BF.2.0-2.0.0123") == "1");

If I change this back to:

assert(oppo.verify_trustzone("TZ.BF.2.0-2.0.0123") == "1");

it flashes.

This looks like it's because of the Allow flashing with older TrustZone version commit which was partially reverted from the Update TrustZone version to be consistent with newest CM nightlies commit.
[ONE Android Development] eris23:
I had no problem flashing it, but, I remember previously flashing an updated firmware zip which solved a previous occasion of the "trustzone" error.
[ONE Android Development] Spannaa:
OK, thanks.

I'm flashing over nightlies though and I see some firmware was updated in the 0515 nightly - maybe this was what affected my initial flash.

Have a quick question, sine upgrading to the latest Lollipop update and encrypting the system (work requirements) every time I boot to recovery and put my password for the decryption , I get an error in recovery that the password is incorrect.

I know for sure that the password is correct.

I have tried Team Win version 2.8.5.1 and 2.8.6.0 with the same result.

Any advise? As right now I can’t use recovery for what I need it for

So my girlfriend works at Verizon and just told me that even if you buy a phone at full retail you can't keep unlimited data. I wanted to start a discussion of everyone's thought on this and if this will make you move to a different provider or if you will still stay. (I will post more when she tells me more information about this)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] cntryby429:
If this is true, I'm curious to see how they handle those of us who are still on contract with an UDP by way of the best buy trick. I'm personally under contract until 2016 with unlimited data.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] HTID_Pyro:
Me too. I was going to upgrade to the m9 today but she told me that so I'm trying to find another loop hole now. She's been busy at work so I haven't found any more info yet.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Darkmx2000:
Thats kinda strange seeing that my sister just purchased the M9 last week and they informed her that the only way she could keep the Unlimited Data was to purchase at full retail which she did. She still has her Unlimited data attached.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] HTID_Pyro:
That's how I've gotten to keep my unlimited in the past. She just found this out today. She works for corporate too and not some random retailer.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Darkmx2000:
This was a Corporate Verizon store, we dont deal with authorized agents cause 9 times out of 10 they'll do something that screws up your account. If it turns out they are doing this, you'll definitely see a lot of people jump ship cause a lot of them have stuck around because they had the unlimited plan.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] lucky_strike33:
I did the best buy trick last week and I doubt they will remove unlimited data. Too many people have UDP and I doubt they will do anything about it.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] l7777:
Don't listen to a CSR person. There have been rumors about this since they did away with the unlimited data plans. Wait until it actually happens before panicking.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] kherryl:
Basically said stop listening to your girlfriend.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] l7777:
Who likely heard it from another uninformed person. In the last four years I've read countless reports from numerous trusted sources that said "unlimited is going away" and it hasn't happened yet. I'm sure someday it will, but there's no sense in posts like these and people getting up in arms. Whenever it happens, all of us holding on to it will have to decide what to do at that point.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Dark Jedi:
Can't see how they can take it away when buying a phone at full retail price doesn't affect your plan at all. You can walk in and buy the phone and never activate it at the store. If any thing the store workers are being told to do something underhanded. Next time I buy at full retail I won't have them activate the phone.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] sjpritch25:
Well, my contract ends in a month, but I just got this phone off contract & still have unlimited. I think I have to change my plan & then I'm screwed.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Anon E Muss:
By your own admission it was a trick and thus not valid. The only ones legitimately still on contract are those that took advantage of a 1 day glitch on Verizon's website in Sept 2013 that allowed unlimited data users to upgrade. Verizon has said they would honor those contracts. They have never said they would honor contracts signed elsewhere. Everyone else on UDP their contracts ran out by June 27th 2014. Even the contracts people got with the glitch run out in a few months anyway. Read the terms. The terms are very clear, you could only keep UDP if you paid full price for a phone. Getting a discounted phone and signing a new contract is not full price. Thus you violated the terms thus the contact is null and void and Verizon doesn't have to honor it.

---------- Post added at 09:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:52 AM ----------

because they don't want people on unlimited data anymore. They don't want or need people using 500 GB a month. Mobile data isn't made to handle that. Maybe if people didn't have a cow over Verizon's "throttling" plan and Verizon was forced to scrap it they would have keep unlimited data around.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] l7777:
Let's not fool ourselves, people using inordinate amounts of data aren't the reason VZ wants to do away with unlimited data. There are plenty of other ways to deal with that. They want more $$. Data is a cash cow because very few users actually understand it. Minutes and Text are easy to keep track of, data is black magic to most people. Those of us who hang onto unlimited data actually understand the value of it. When that value goes away we'll all be re-evaluating our choice of carrier and plan. I know I can use 3 - 6 Gigabytes simply by streaming music while I'm in the car.
