[Verizon HTC One (M8)] BaconBaconBacon:
Hi,

I have a Verizon variant HTC One M8 that lost all cellular function after flashing a ROM. I was running DigitalHigh's GPE ROM and everything was perfectly fine until I flashed the 5.1 update. Ever since then I cannot make calls, send SMS, use data, and I get a no SIM card notification. It seems like I also lost IMEI, baseband, and other info from the about screen when the phone is booted, but this info is found when I use "fastboot getvar all." While the phone is booted I also get random reboots every few minutes or so.

I've tried various ROMs including previously working ones (such as the 5.0.1 version of DH's rom) and they do the same. I also tried to flash the 4.4.4 OTA update I have provided by my stock rom (which I've lost, unfortunately) but anytime I flash a stock recovery I get an annoying boot loop that is hard to get out of. I would attempt a RUU but I'm not sure if I should. I have a Verizon variant phone, but my carrier is not Verizon and my CID is a "rural version" that I do not see pop up very often: LRA_001. I usually run supercid though.

My fastboot getvar all results are below:

(bootloader) version: 0.5

(bootloader) version-bootloader: 3.19.0.0000

(bootloader) version-baseband: 1.09.20.0926

I hate to say this, but on all of these I have seen you need a new motherboard. I even had one go in this same fashion. Your phone is failing to start the embedded modem.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] BaconBaconBacon:
Well that's disappointing. I guess I'll just need to go get a new phone then?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] genious_t:
did you manage to get your phone working, i have one with similar problem i can see the imei and baseband in booloader but they don't show up in settings > about, contacted HTC dev and they provided me a complete zip file to flash, it didn't help me much, besides the reboot issue in OS (which is due to wrong kernel).

i can share the zip file if you want.

Bro, I am reading your posts in XDA forum for the past 1 week.

Bro, I am reading your posts in XDA forum for the past 1 week. I understood that you also have the same device as mine. I have the same HTC M8 device. I bought it via ebay. I am now in 3.31.512.2. Android 4.4.4.

Can u tell me anyway to upgrade to next version without losing Network functionalities. Lollipop or Marshmallow.

I am in India. I am using GSM network. The device is S-Off and Locked.

When I searched HTC website it shows the following things. It shows two versions

One M8 | LRA | USA | CRC | 3.4.0 | v4.4.4	| 432 MB	| 3.31.512.2 |

One M8 | LRA | USA | MR | 1 3.4.0 | v5.0.2	| 535 MB	| 4.21.512.4 |

Help me with this Bro .....

No problem Mate, I am new to the forum I found some guys talking about ( sw ver =3.31.512.2 ) here. Thats why I posted up my query. I already found the solution.

I flashed the correct RUU yesterday. It is working fine. If anyone searching for any info related to ( sw ver =3.31.512.2 )( OS-3.28.605.4, OS-4.21.512.4 ) click down the below thread.

Just to let everyone know, the official CyanogenMod 12.1 Nightly builds have been released for the S3 as of April 30th. However, rather than using the unified build page as they did with CM 11, they have gone back to using the d2tmo page. From what I can tell, d2tmo does not show up on the device list on the cyanogenmod wiki, so if you are looking to get to the downloads from the wiki, you must still go the the d2lte page, then click on the d2tmo link.

So if we have a d2lte, can we install the latest CM12.1 for d2tmo?

As title states. I recently bought a used R800x to use as a gaming phone, everything was working peachy until last night. SD card wont mount, the backplate is on tight so the white switch is being pressed down. I have tried stock roms, I have reformatted the card 3 times, I have tried another card, same issue. I have tried custom roms, same result. Going to storage on the phone shows sd card not present and unable to connect to it via PC from within the phone after booting up. However if I go into recovery and mount no problems there. I was begining to think the microsd slot is shot but if that was the case it wouldnt connect at all CWM or not. Anyone have any ideas how to fix this issue or some suggestions?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psxpetey:
So even when you press the switch down still nothing?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozzmanj1:
That's what was happening.. I got it solved, somehow my phone stopped seeing the 2nd partition, ext3 from link2sd. I have to remove all partitions and reformat, only then did it see the card again, not sure why it did that. When the card was inserted with the ex3 parttion it saw it no problem for days then suddenly would not see the sdcard until I removed and formatted everything.

I had to start from scratch on a ftf again but all is working, sd card and all.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Npsacobra:
Extremely frustrated. Stock SM N900A, new Linksys e2500 router. My girlfriend's S5 is pulling 90mbs over my new home network. I am topping out at 25mbs. After days of troubleshooting, I realized my handset I'd not connected to wireless n. If I set the router to only broadcast 802.11n, my WiFi settings show my network "saved, secured" and won't connect. AT&T sent me a replacement that does the same thing. This is a pretty basic router, but it's obviously doing a great job for the S5! I have tweaked all settings but can't seem to find the solution. Anybody got any input?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cylon7:
Hi folks,

I was using Cyanogenmod on my previous phone, a Samsung Galaxy S Relay (QWERTY slider). With CM, along with paying T-Mo $3 a month for the Incoming Caller ID Name service, I was able to see the names of people calling from unfamiliar numbers. As in, the old-school Caller ID like we've had on landlines for decades.

I've had my T-Mo Nexus 6 for a few days outside the return period. I'm still on the stock OS. I just figured out that when unfamiliar numbers call, I don't see the incoming Caller ID Name. I checked with T-Mo Tier 2 tech support. They say that according to Motorola's website, the Nexus line doesn't support incoming Caller ID Name. Period.

I wanted to ask if anyone is using a community Rom on a Nexus phone (hopefully a Nexus 6), and is successfully seeing incoming Caller ID Name, along with subscribing to that service from their carrier? Preferably OmniROM or Cyanogenmod.

This phone has "Google Caller ID", which I find to be pretty much useless. If a business is listed on Google Places, the phone displays their name when they're calling. Or if an individual with a Google account who has confirmed their phone with that account calls, it shows their name. I'm most interested in seeing the name of unfamiliar individuals who are calling, as I run my own service business and post my phone number online. Granted, a lot of times it will just say "Verizon wireless caller" or "wireless caller" whatever, but that's still helpful when I'm trying to distinguish new/unfamiliar numbers.

I'm trying to escalate to a manager with T-Mobile retentions to get them to take the phone back. I've been with them for 8 years. The rep at the store who sold me the phone, said that incoming Caller ID Name would work on this phone. He transferred the service over from my old phone, since I am grandfathered into that service for $3 a month. The first level T-Mo retentions rep I spoke with tonight offered three useless suggestions. She suggested installing a 3rd party app, but those just do the same thing that Google Caller ID does, they look up the incoming number online. True incoming Caller ID Name has to be integrated into the dialer. She also suggested trying to sell the phone, but of course I can't do that since I'm on a payment plan for it, so it's not unlocked. And she suggested I could trade it in and get something else - for a whopping $311 for a 3-week old 64gb phone that I bought for $700. So I'd still owe them $389 on it at $29 a month, plus the cost of the new phone. No thanks, frackers!

If I can get incoming Caller ID Name working with a community Rom, I may just pay off the phone and switch to Project Fi.

Thanks!

when installing tft via flashtool does it automatically wipe system partition clean? Does flashtool wipe system partition clean before installing tft firmware? does it? to make sure system partition is clean before extracting files in system partition? or it does not? it simply just overwrite the files and there's left over file left from the previous android version and firmware?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shayded:
As far as I know, if you leave everything under the "wipe" section checked, while having no checked exclusions, it SHOULD wipe the partition, but to be on the safe side I'd do it manually as well.

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polish_pat:
I'm trying to pair my S6 edge to my TL but I keep getting blocked by the trusted devices menu.

Basically I'm able to start the pairing process and setup a pair code but when my car asks me to name the device the pairing process stops. I get a notification that asks me to add the car to my trusted devices list but when I do my car keeps telling me I can't start the pairing process from the phone. It's like if I have to add my car to the trusted devices list before I start pairing in order to finish pairing the car and phone. Is there any way to disable to smart lock so I can pair my car? I never had any issues with previous galaxy devices.

It's worthy to note that I was able to pair my Gear 2 and Nexus 9 without all this hassle

thanks.

I was able to make a video with what exactly happens that prevents me to pair my phone and my car. Basically, i can go though the entire process but when i get to the part where i have to name the phone it cuts me off. Then I have a "trusted devices" message that pop up on the phone asking me to pair with my car to add it to the trusted list, and when i go in bluetooth devices, it does say pair. Usually it should say connected. When I try to connect to it in BT devices, it asks me for my 4 digit code and after I input it, my car tells me the pairing process can't be initiated from the phone...I don't know what to do, this is the first phone i was not able to pair. I think its a lollipop thing but i cant confirm because my note 4 that ran lollipop was already paired with the car when i got the OTA 4.4 to 5.0.

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polish_pat:
Important update.

I was able to pierce the mystery of my pairing problem. It seems as not all S6 edge are created equal.

Long story short, my dad got himself a new car, Benz GLA250, thats comes with networking capabilities when paired with a smartphone. His company supplied iphone didnt share the network connection with the car so he asked me to try with my S6. As i tried to enable bluetooth tethering, i couldnt find it. I made a few searches on XDA and found that some people are complaining about missing functions on their edge, BT tethering was one of the main features some people didnt have, others were missing some toggles also. It seems as some phones dont have it. Don't ask me why because its not a carrier restriction, some people on T-Mo had it, others didnt.

The only solution was to flash a custom rom with BT tethering enabled. As I didnt want to go through the entire flashing process, and also because i didnt want to trip knox in case it break SamsungPay, i called up my friend that had the same phone I didnt and found out he also didnt have BT tether. Since he didnt care about knox or Samsungpay, i flashed him a custom rom and was fianlly able to pair my TL with the edge, and was also able to connect to my dads car.

So i guess it's a software problem. Not sure why that option was left out for some, but i guess it'll be fixed in the upcoming 5.1.1 update. Also worth noting that samsung did release a fix for the missing toggles through an app in the galaxy store.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polish_pat:
Does anybody know why BT tethering is gone on my variant? I've heared of some carriers taking out that option (and hotspot) but that was mostly because of the unlimited data plans, but in canada they never block anything on our variants, neither the bootloader or any other function.

Has anybody with an S6 edge W8 also have the BT tethering missing?

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sprbkmikez1@gmail.com:
Just in case anybody is still interested in this problem, I found out that this "era" of TL ('04-'08) ONLY accepts cell phones from this time period.

Meaning if one doesn't have a cellphone dating back from these years "IT AIN'T GONNA WORK!" There is a cellphone compatibility list online

that one can find out which cellphone works from multiple makers and carriers.

And the answer to your question....YES, its too new.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] jcneivar:
Thats my question guys. If TMO version has BL unlocked, could i install a firmware (rom) from international versions on a TMO?

I come from a HTC and i think everything was so easy. I could install the international version on my AT&T changing the partition lay-out but i dunno if i can do the same on S6 edge, being that TMO version has BL unlocked.

I'm really sorry for this stupid question.

There's already a thread on this, and the answer is yes, but not without a lot of work from an experienced developer.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] memtenn:
So I took the leap to the S6 edge. Took the test drive for 8 days and had to return it. I couldn't do it. It was too small for my taste it felt like I was texting on an iPhone (coming from Note 3, 4, and Nexus 6). The battery life was horrible and the feel from the sloped glass felt off in my hands kind of a sharp uncomfortable feel. Now don't get me wrong the phone is sexy as hell and the camera was a beast but the essentials just wasn't there (battery replacement, SD card, large screen). I was also shocked that it lagged at times. I gave it more than one chance but I just couldn't do it. So I'm back to the Note. And it feels so good.:D You'll never miss something till it's gone. True Story. Waiting on the Note 5 and hope it comes with a replaceable battery. ;)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] flipq88:
Ditto. Everything you just said sums up how I felt after a week with the edge. Although battery life was due to the root method I used removed the stock recovery (or something like that) so the phone would never go into deep sleep. But even on stock battery wasn't anything compared to the note 4. Not to mention I have a spare battery so as soon as one dies, fully charged one goes in phone and dead battery goes to charge. I haven't plugged my phone to charge since like December lol.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] icugotit2:
Welcome back. My thoughts were the same. The only thing superior is the camera and manual mode . . . But outside of that i view it as a inferior device to the note 4. Its a well made phone though but no expandable memory is a huge fail since we are in the hd and qhd era for content. Streaming is and cloud is not always a reliable solution for many too.

Custom on the TEKHD rom. 3

No games at all mostly spotify or web browsing on team stream. Kernel apps show that the battery is in good condition and it's only about 4 months old.

Ah. It all makes sense now.

I thought you were on lollipop as well.

Kitkat is where the battery life is at.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] pierrekid:
I'll tell you how to get 6 hours on screen time... Turn your screen brightness all the way down and turn on power saver mode. Heck even ultra power if you want.

Everyone user who posts absurd battery life in comparison to almost everyone else is more than likely running some kind of power saver setting all day. Unless you post some kind of time lapse of your settings throughout an entire day of use I'm calling bs.

No way you get that battery life under some what normal scenarios.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Face_Plant:
I don't use any power saving modes or any of that bs. I use Amplify and Greenify, but those only help with standby battery life. I have my screen on auto brightness with the adjustment slider at +5.

I don't understand why people think 6+ hours of screen on time is fake. The Note 4 has a BIG battery so it's really not that hard. For an S6 I'd say 6 hours or more of SOT is probably fake, but not on a phone with a huge battery like the Note 4. People who get 4 hours or less of SOT must be using GPS navigation for hours, doing something CPU/GPU/radio intensive (games, streaming music/videos, etc), running AOSP, have a faulty battery, or any combination of these.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] pierrekid:
That's the point. You could be telling the truth. You could lying. All I know is when I run those settings I get 7 hours on screen time (power saver mode) and can post the same screenshots of those who also say they 6+. Which means we have to go by what most people are getting. Sorry man but unless you show an entire time lapse of you using your phone under normal settings, I'm not buying it
