I second the above. Mailed mine to somebody with a java card. Fortunately I had the Nexus 6 to hold me over while that was being done. If needed, I am sure you can find somebody in the java card thread.

I am sure this was clarified somewhere, but I read this thread and the one linked;

I have a Verizon M9 with S-Off from a Java card, locked bootloader and no root.

Assuming I root and then do this method, will my data be wiped?
[Verizon HTC One (M9)] dottat:
No it will not. What kind of slacker did your s-off?

Hah. I decided I'd do it anyway before I saw your reply.

It was a coworker, and I had only asked for S-Off, rather than the whole deal.

I just purchased this device haven't had a hacked phone in about 2 years. Forgot the process. In what order would one s off , unlock boot loader, and root. Thanks for any help offered.
[Verizon HTC One (M9)] lordcheeto03:
Gotta have a java card to s-off, and I assume you gotta be s-off before you can unlock the bootloader and root. Check out the Java Card thread to find somebody with a java card and send your phone to them, or if they're close enough, meet up with them. Stand up guys, all of them are. Many many multiple success stories from people sending their devices and having it back within the week all ready to flash.. for just the cost of shipping and a donation..

You must be S-OFF to unlock your bootloader.

No matter what I install, I always get "Failed" in red letters in TWRP but it appears the installs are completing or at least partially completing. So far, the only thing that is not working that was installed via TWRP is the 4G tether fix.

Here's what I have in the boot loader:

*** Software status: Modified ***

*** UNLOCKED ***

MS_WHL PVT SHIP S-OFF

I followed this guide to root the phone (this is my first attempt so all of this is new to me):

h**p://htconeroot.com/htc-one-root/how-to-root-htc-one-m8/

Then I used Sunshine to gain S-OFF.

Then I flashed to the latest Bad Boyz ROM.

I have tried TWRP 2.7.0.2, 2.8.5.0, 2.8.6.0 and currently have Captain_Throwback's 2.8.6.1 installed. They all show the failed message when I install anything.

Anyone have any ideas?

Make sure you don't have simulate actions for theme checked

Thanks but it's unchecked.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] EVOuser94:
Try to delete your twrp folder from sdcard and reflash it, it could be bad downloads too
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] jeffshead:
Thank you but already tried that.

I did some more testing. I think the issue is related to the SD card mounting in TWRP. I have an external SD card so TWRP shows I have two SD cards even though one is internal. I'm using the Bad Boyz ROM so there is an option to "Reboot and Install" updates. When I select that option, it seems the updates do install properly even though I always get the 'Failed' warning in red letters, in TWRP. If I download the update and manually boot to TWRP and manually mount the SD card that contains the download zip file and then install, I do not get the error.

Is anyone else experiencing the same issue with an external SD card?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] EVOuser94:
Not trying to be repetitive but make sure settings is like this and mount is like this, also try to mount external then back to internal depending on where zips are located you may want to mount that particular card. Like at the bottom where it says internal storage click that
[Huawei Ascend P7] kenkko:
Hi There.

I was wondering if anybody had the profiles.xml file, or knows where to get it for the P7. i tried installing custom firmware but that got me stuck in a bootloop. I can access TWRP but no further. I tried to restore some backups but they did nothing, so I was just going to create a flash-able zip (Huawei update extractor) but it needs the .xml file mentioned earlier. (Attached is two images of the Huawei update extractor.)

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thank you.

Flash official recovery (Emui 2.3 for ver. 133 or Emui 3.0 for 609), download 133 or 609 and then try 3 button update.

Tried that but it didnt work, it wont flash into recovery, luckily i have the warranty for the phone and i am getting it fixed under that.

I noticed I don't like the extended rom feature (as far as I know it installs everything to the phone RAM).

Is there a program/way to have a group of cabs, automaticaly installed to my SD-card after a hard-reset?

Thnx,

The apparent consensus among folks who know more than I do including some folks who have written programs like "settings savior" and mortscripts to do automated cab installs is that you still have to process the cab "manually" if you want it to go to storage card..there is no automated method...

How to check if you are running a Stock/Virtual System?

There're many ways to check whether you're running a Stock or Virtual system. MultiSystem app should include this simple check at some point. That's important to avoint ruining the Stock system & keep it safe. To make it clear to NOOBZ & anyone who's requesting "another" proof even though I owe hime nothing. Very weird!

Anyway, BusyBox mountpoint applet can print the current block/device mounted to /system mountpoint by running the following command:

busybox mountpoint -n /system

The stock system is mounts the original system partition:

[B][COLOR="Red"]/dev/block/mmcblk0p23[/COLOR][/B]

while the virtual system mounts a loop device associated with a system IMG:

[B][COLOR="Blue"]/dev/block/loop0[/COLOR][/B]

Here're two videos for both stock & virtual systems...

[YOUTUBE]lks1D4eAZ1g[/YOUTUBE]

[YOUTUBE]o2ryf2Xr1rU[/YOUTUBE]

UPDATE:

Now, you could run the following command to print the current system (stock or virtual) and the system device (physical partition or loop device):

MultiSystem status

Note: The block device number (mmcblk0p23) may vary per device & per variant !

How to repartition microSD card for MultiSystem?

You can use any tool/program for partitioning on Android, Linux, Mac, or Windows. For example, MiniTool Partition Wizard is a good partitioning tool for Windows. So, let's use it for this task. Simply, you need to follow this PDF tutorial (thanks to [MENTION=3271517]carl1961[/MENTION]). In sum:

Step 1: delete old partitions on SD card

Step 2: create FAT32 PRIMARY partition

Step 3: create EXT4 PRIMARY partition

Then, apply changes (note that the program UI may get changed in newer versions).

How to check microSD card partitions for MultiSystem?

You need to correctly repartition microSD card into two partitions:

exFAT or FAT32 for the 1st partition (your new external storage)

EXT4 for the 2nd partition (your MultiSystem partition)

Use the directions in this post!

You should check your 2nd SD partition in EXT4 format mounted to /MultiSystem:

check that the /MultiSystem directory exists after a reboot

check that the 2nd SD partition (/dev/block/mmcblk1p2) is mounted to /MultiSystem by running the following command in Terminal Emulator or ADB shell:

mount | grep /MultiSystem

The output should be:

/dev/block/mmcblk1p2 /MultiSystem ext4 rw,seclabel,relatime,data=ordered 0 0
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hsbadr:
How to check MultiSystem Installation?

The 1st thing to do after installing MultiSystem is to check the /MultiSystem directory & its contents (it shouldn't be empty!). Then, check usage by running the following commands in Terminal Emulator or ADB shell:

su
bash
MultiSystem

If it retuns "MultiSystem not found" or permission denied, try to use open MultiSystem app to Update Configurations & try again. If this does't fix it, try the following command:

/MultiSystem/bin/MultiSystem

This should work if you've MultiSystem binaries installed in (extracted to) /MultiSystem directory. If so, you can create a symlink in /system/xbin as follows:

mount -o remount,rw /system
ln -sv /MultiSystem/bin/MultiSystem /system/xbin/MultiSystem

Then, test it by running:

MultiSystem

The last thing before using it is to check the boot options: reboot & monitor the GREEN LED indicator for 3 seconds (change in the app) , which give you the following options:

Volume UP = Primary virtual ROM

Volume DOWN = Secondary virtual ROM

HOME KEY = Stock System

Sure, you should have installed one or more virtual ROMs.

Backup & restore or creating/installing a virtual ROM are easy as copy & paste: all img's will be at

/MultiSystem/img/system

To backup a virtual/stock system, you have many options:

Use create function to create from stock system

Use copy function to copy the IMG

Copy & paste with a new name

Use FlashFire (fully supported on virtual/stock ROMs)

...

If you've IMG mounting issues, run the following commands:

mount -o remount,rw /system
busybox ln -sv /proc/self/mounts /system/etc/mtab

If this doesn't help, try mounting from Terminal Emulator or ADB shell after selecting the IMG in MultiSystem app, by running the following command:

MultiSystem mount virtual

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Technical:
Wow... Seems a fantastic tool. The shared partitions are a fantastic option!

Right now, I have my external card as this:

1st partition fat32 primary

2nd partition ext4 primary (5,64Gb but only 2,43Gb free).

I'm using Link2SD Plus and the 2nd partition is being used by the app to move the app/data to the external card.

Can I use Link2SD in the same 2nd partition as MultiSystem? Would it be advisable to do so?

Can I create a 3rd partition for MultiSystem? If so, how to point MultiSystem to it as Link2SD seems to be pointed only for the 2nd one.

Is there any app that formats the sdcard partitions within Android?
