[HTC One M8 for Windows] nate0:
Not trying to steal the OP steam at all, but in the event folks would like the info later below here it is:

Today with the Interop Tools installed on M8 with Win10 Mobile Release 1, I edited the registry to read NOKIA as the Manufacturer and RM-1104 which is the global version of the 950, as the Model Name. I then installed the update to 10.0.14372.0.

I had tested this formula on my Samsung ATIV SE with no issues prior...

After the Update: So far I am impressed. The Redstone build 10.0.14372.0 on my AT&T M8 installed just fine. It was a quick install compared to upgrading from 8.1 to 10 release 1. All the apps updated just fine. I edited the registry back to the original manufacturer/model name. Battery drain does not seem to be as much of a problem with this build on my M8, I was at about 67% and it recorded 1day 8hrs remaining from there, but I will check it again in a couple of days. I also have visual voicemail working :)

The 1 noted issue thus far is the front facing camera (if used) will crash the OS where it is at and cause it to reboot, but for now I can deal without the front facing camera.

Just wondering, is there a way to install Windows 10 on a 8.1 device now? They pulled the Insider support, so I was wondering. Thanks!
[HTC One M8 for Windows] nate0:
I no longer have my m8, but I have an Ativ SE from my VZ days. I was able to edit the registry about 2 weeks back on the Ativ to get the anniversary update installed. There are many tutorials for changing the proper keys on this site. It should still work.

Wp 8.1 -> w10m

Hello, how do I install a registry editor on this phone? Due to the transition to 10 windows mobile. thank you for the advice
[HTC One M8 for Windows] colbyringeisen:
Argh! I'm now in the same boat. I had previously updated my HTC M8 from Win8.1 to Win10 using the Insider Preview and then hacked the registry using Interop Tools for Win10 to set it to a "Lumia 950" and get it to the Win10 Redstone 10.0.14915.1000 using the fast ring option. That was working fine until they pushed Redstone 10.0.14926.1000 to my phone yesterday, which caused my phone to go into a continuously rebooting cycle. I used WDRT to go back to Win8.1 only to discover the Insider Preview no longer works so I have no way of getting any Win10 update.

I'm assuming I can make the same registry edits in Win8.1 to trick it into upgrading to Win10 but I can't seem to find a registry editor tool that will work on Win8.1.

Does anyone know of any tools (and the steps to install them) that I can use on a Win8.1 to hack the registry? Or any other way for me to get the HTC M8 back to Win10?

Installing Windows 10 on HTC One M8

I just got an HTC One M8 running Windows 8.1 a couple days back after my Icon went for a swim last month :p

It took me a few hours of research to figure out how to get it to Windows 10

You do need a SD card for this to work

1) Download & Install the Windows Phone 8.0 SDK

2) Download CustomWPSystem

3) Download the Registry Editor by djmol and put the .xap on the root of the SD card

4) Run Windows Phone Developer Registration 8.1 ---- Part of the SDK ---- and follow the instructions on the app

5) Run Application Deployment ---- Part of the SDK ---- and deploy the CustomWPSystem to your phone

6) Open CustomWPSystem on your phone and follow the instructions to apply the RegEdit .xap to an existing app **Note: Preview for Developers didn't work for me but I was able to use the Field Medic app**

7) Go to the app you installed to RegEdit under and write the following under HKLM>System>Platform>DeviceTargetingInfo

PhoneManufacturer to Nokia

PhoneManufacturerModelName to RM-1045_1009

PhoneModelName to Lumia 930

8) Reset the Phone and Check for updates

This worked for me! I've been playing around with this for about two hours now and haven't come across any bugs. :) Running 10.0.14393.189

Hope this Helps!

[HTC One M8 for Windows] colbyringeisen:
Thanks

Thanks! That worked for me with only a few hiccups. Below are the steps I followed.

Note: The steps below assume your HTC One M8 has been restored to a factory image using the Windows Device Recovery Tool (WDRT).

What you need to download:

1) Download & Install the Windows Phone 8.0 SDK - Note that this is now a part of Visual Studio and the latest version (VS 2015) doesn't seem to support Windows Phone 8 and earlier (at least not in the same was as earlier versions). It may be possible to get this to work with VS 2015 but I didn't spend any time on it as I had a VM with Visual Studio 2013 to work with and that DOES work just fine.

2) Download CustomWPSystem

3) Download the Registry Editor by djmol and put the .xap on the root of the SD card

Steps to Update to Windows 10:

1) If you already have Preview for Developers installed to the phone (instead of to the SD card) or your not sure, uninstall it.

2) Enable app installs to SD card (Settings --> Storage Sense).

3) Install Preview for Developers to the SD card (do not install to the phone).

4) Unlock your phone. To do this, run Windows Phone Developer Registration 8.1 ---- Part of the SDK ---- and follow the instructions on the app.

5) Enable app installs to Phone (Settings --> Storage Sense).

6) Install CustomWPSystem to your phone (make sure this is installed to the phone and not to the SD card). To do this, run Application Deployment ---- Part of the SDK ---- and deploy the CustomWPSystem to your phone.

7) Open CustomWPSystem on your phone and follow the instructions to apply the RegEdit .xap to Preview for Developers (or another app installed to the phone and not the SD card).

8) Run Preview for Developers (or another app you applied CustomWPSystem to in the step above). This should now launch CustomWPSystem instead.

9) Under HKLM>System>Platform>DeviceTargetingInfo change the values below. If the values are successfully changed CustomWPSystem should show 'True' (you can then select the 'Read' button to confirm the value has been changed).

PhoneManufacturer to Nokia

PhoneManufacturerModelName to RM-1045_1009

PhoneModelName to Lumia 930

10) Install Windows Insider Preview and select whichever option you want (fast ring, slow ring, stable build) and then let the app restart the phone.

11) Run Check for Updates (Settings --> Update Phone). This should now detect that there's an update, download and install it.

Hey there, I've got a .divx file on my storage card, but WMP won't recognise it, I'm using Black 3.0 (I know, I haven't upgraded to Dymond yet, I've only just gotten the device settings finished as I'm new to this whole scene)

How can I get the bugger to read it?

WMP doesnt have the divx codec so therefor cannot play them back.

Try using TCPMP instead.

Try it again. Put each of the 4 files in its corresponding spot in odin matching each file with the spot (BL, AP, CP and CSC), put S6 in download mode, connect it to the pc via usb, press start in odin after it recognizes the phone. Use the original usb that came with the S6.

[Fuhu Nabi 2] aicjofs:
There are posts out there for the restoring various versions. Basically you need a ROM version. i.e. 3013stock.zip, 2311stock.zip, etc. Extract those contents to a TWRP backup folder and restore.

For example

2311

3013

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=58786524&postcount=2510

The other trick will be TWRP version, it needs to match whatever bootloader you have. If you are getting partitions errors, count mount errors, or you can see no files you are likly using wrong TWRP so switch to a different version
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feden84:
Hi!

I just bought a Samsung S5 SM-G900A (AT&T) with no contract. I use it in Argentina where there´s not even AT&T service. My cellphone company is Personal.

Anyway, I come from a Moto x 2013 and I find this S5 is slower than my previous phone. Before starting with custom roms, I´d like to try installing from Sammobile a clean stock kitkat or lollipop. When I say clean I mean no carriers apps or so. May I do this with no root? Is there any risk?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rakuu:
You cant go down to kitkat if youre lollipop, if you arent you still can only flash firmware(via odin) for the g900a, which will have bloat, if you root you can flash some roms that have little to no bloat, only touchwiz based though, no cyanogen/aosp/aokp/etc, locked bootloader prevents it.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feden84:
I'm on KitKat 4.4.2 . For some reason i am not getting the OTA firmware update. Could it be because I'm outside eeuu? Is it worth switching to lollipop?

What do you mean by bloat? Tks
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rakuu:
Bloat as in preincluded apps. Theres an ota file in att s5 general that you can use to update through stock recovery, the thread has a download and instructions.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feden84:
Thanks!

Can't I just flash an at&t free lollipop through odin?

I remember doing that with my samsung s3 getting the stock firmwares from sammobile. I would just pick a polish free one (no at&t or other brand), which are usually the first to see the light.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rakuu:
Nope, flashing a firmware from an international(or any other variant) variant will brick you. You can flash roms based on firmware from other variants but thats the closest youll get. I'm not 100% but i dint think theres an odin image for lollipop,just the ota file for stock recovery.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feden84:
Rakuu, does this apply because of at&t version or because of s5 itself? My s3 would accept any international firmware.

So now that I have root on my phone, using Titanium Backup, WHAT should I backup? I mean... my phone doesn't have inherent instability now does it?

Or does the instability (possibly) come from xposed modules I install?

Are there sets of steps I should take before installing new root apps?

Thanks!

Root details:

Verizon S4 (sch-i545)

Stock ROM (4.4.2)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] scryan:
Back up anything you would miss loosing if something happed. For me thats nothing, for others thats maybe a particular apk version, or an apps data.

What do you need to do before installing root apps? Root apps are just programs that require admin rights. Nothing magic, do whatever that app might need, which is probably nothing.

It is generally good to have a full system backup from your recovery... For when you try to do _______ and **** it up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] blueman189:
Okay great! I already backed up any folders (pictures, pdfs from camsacanner, roms) to my computer via usb before rooting... so...

So when people are talking about TWRP/CWmod recovery... how is it different from stock recovery?

So basically a custom recovery is an all in one answer that allows you to back up EVERYTHING but also allows you to back up EVERYTHING in one blow?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] scryan:
Stock recovery will let you do a factory wipe to basically clear data and reset your system to recover from something that messes up your install and makes your phone unusable.

Custom recoveries allow you to flash unofficial files, as well as take basically a snapshot of your system. With a custom recovery you can make a backup of your phone, and almost no matter what happens, you can flash that backup and it will be like nothing happened.

So when you try and run some xposed module that isn't written well, and now makes your phone crash every 2 minutes, you can boot to recovery and flash back to the backup you took right before you installed that module, and it will be like you never did it.

The recovery images are kinda large, as its all your data/apps/the OS all in one. Many custom recoveries will have a file manager that will allow you to deal with files individually, but most typically the point is taking a snapshot of your current system so you can go back to it. I make backups before trying a new rom, that way if after a little bit I am not happy I just flash back and its like I never changed anything.

what's is doing / not doing? If you drop the folder into the OEM folder, you can either leave out the options.xml file and it will install by default, or add the tailored file to give you the selection in buildos.
