[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vhfyagi:
Initial I thought that may be the reason, so I put B308 update.zip and try to update, but still "there is no update .app!" .

So I decide to go back to basic - first principle: as long as you have right stock recovery image, you should be able to flash the right rom. Now this comes to the fun bit!!!

1) I used the huawei extractor to extract the recovery.img from B137 update.app, then fastboot flash this recovery.img, so I am on B137 and have right stock recovery. I should be ready for B308.

2) put B308 into sdcard, run local update, Wow, 100% successful, now 5.1 lollipop, all features, cat6 and motion control, etc all good. I should be ready for B317. But wait a second, let me try B308->B300->B137 to see.

3) put B300 into sdcard, run local update, Oh Yeah, 100% successful, no "huawei cust fail", good, I am ready for B137.

4) put B137 into sdcard, run local update, good, 100% successful, reboot, ah ah... "emergency data", cannot load the emui, need to factory reset, reset failed, "huawei cust fail" again. But phone still be reset, emui loaded, Cat6 and motion control now disappeared. Don't worry, I know how to fix it by rooting the phone and modifying the cust\ directory, as I did last time. But, this time, I want to try some new. Let's do the B137+cust fix pack.

5) put the B137+cust pack into sdcard, 3 button force update, 100% successful, no more "there is no update.app", reboot, all good. So with B137 stock recovery, you should be able to flash B137. "there is no update.app" is because I messed up stock recovery image when I tried to B317->B137 straight away.

Now I want to see why I am getting "huawei cust fail" in step 4. Open the dial pad, type *#*#2846579159#*#*, engineering mode appear, check "network into"->"country and operator", now I have hw and eu (I also checked in step 4, saying no valid info), previously I have vha and au (I am from Australia), that's the reason!!!
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r0gd0g:
That's great news :)

I had the same problem downgrading using step 4 where update would fail around 95% with cust fail. Every time I ran step 4 and rebooted the phone it was still running lollipop. Only when I ran Step 5 I could downgrade to B137.

I posted this to /r/Android before, but they suck, so I'll try my hand at posting it here.

I'd like to announce KeepShare Lite for KeePass

Well, it's not really a new app. KeepShare has been under development and available on the Play Store since 2013. The FREE Lite version is available now.

What is it?

KeepShare is a KeePass database reading and writing app for Android.

What makes it special?

It is built from the ground up to be completely different from any other solution available on Android. This application is the only implementation of KeePass for Android that allows one to securely unlock the database with a 4+ digit PIN. It also looks good because it's fully Material Design.

KeepShare is one of the first apps to have a custom keyboard for password entry, in addition to searching for database entries using a "Share" mechanism (hence the name KeepShare). In addition to this, it is also among the first password managers on Android to provide complete auto-fill support across all apps, including Chrome (requires Android 5.0+ for Chrome).

In addition to this, KeepShare supports Android 4.4+ Storage Access Framework, this means you can automatically connect and synchronize to your choice of cloud storage provider, including Google Drive, Box.net, OneDrive, etc.

It is also fully compatible with KeePass because it uses a 100% direct port of KeePassLib from C# to Java

How is KeepShare Lite different from KeepShare?

KeepShare Lite provides read-only support for KeePass databases. I recently completed write support for KeepShare, and as a result, I feel that it's enough of a feature delineation where I can give KeepShare Lite to everyone for free! Why do I want to give it away? Because everyone should be improving their security situation by making better use of strong passwords, and security should be easy.

Great, where can I get it?

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hanhuy.android.keepshare.lite

Help! I'm stuck

Yes, it's open source: issue tracker on github https://github.com/pfn/keepshare

I suppose posting here works, too!

What's this KeePassLib port?

Find it on github https://github.com/pfn/keepassj

How can a 4 digit PIN possibly be safe!?

The security is implemented by using a 2-part encryption key for your master passphrase. Your PIN is only one part of the key. The other part of the key is uploaded into app-private data in your Google Drive account. Information stored on your phone cannot be accessed without the key from Google Drive and vice versa. (Also a first, no other app does this to enhance your security).

Can I create databases using KeepShare?

Not yet, for now, you will need to create it from any other app that allows database creation.

What if I don't like it?!

Queue up the 1* reviews! :(

Trivia

I'm also the developer of keepasshttp, chromeipass and passifox, trusted by over 100k users. Although it's been mostly sidelined and I haven't actively developed it in forever. Any volunteers? :)

Guys,

I just got HTC One M9+ form Flipkart in india. It has Androis 5.0.2 with HTC Sense 7.0

I am trying to record a TV Remote using Anymote App (Free Version).

When i am trying to add a button to a custom remote it continuously says "Waiting for Signal To Record".

even when i am pressing the button on TV remote (i tried short press and long continuos press also).

Then i Tried TwinOne IR Remote app which also has the "Learn Remote" Function.

But there also it failed to detect the IR Signal.

Does anybody has success recording a remote using HTC One M9+?

Or is it that M9+ does not have Recorder/ Receiver functionality like in M8 and M7 Phones.

Please help

I used a nandroid backup I did when I first got my phone - trying to go back to stock, which is unfortunately 'carrier branded' (O2 - UK) quick bullet points then. I then installed a stock recovery I found which I THINK is the correct one... :S

1: The O2 splash screen at startup isnt there, which I thought it would be?

2: When I did a factory reset one one of the startup screens it told me my device was a test device (I can elaborate if needs be).

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Which stock recovery did you flash?

Did you do any other modifications before making the nandroid (aside from custom recovery and root) such as deleting any bloat apps?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmorterlaing:
Thanks so much for the quick reply :)

I did no other mods before the nandroid other than installing TWRP recovery - it was the first thing I did after installing TWRP. I don't know if you have to S-OFF before installing recovery - I would've done that if so.

Installed this recovery: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=24260

The bottom one on the list.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
There are a few things going wrong here:

1) You apparently reverted to stock software build 1.x (either 1.12 or 1.54) based on the fact that OTA 2.22 is trying to install.

2) Normally, you want the stock recovery that corresponds with your software build, so 1.12 or 1.54.

3) However, it seems you have already "manually" updated the firmware (by s-off) to the WWE Euro Lollipop firmware (not O2), as indicated by your main version number (4.16.401), as well as hboot and radio numbers. Its the "401" that marks this as the WWE "international" version. "206" would appear in that location in the build numbers for O2 branded software.

Point 3 above raises the question, why even return to stock at all if you already have updated (Lollipop) firmware?

You can revert to the 1.x firmware (which should allow you to install the 2.22.206 OTA); or alternately you should be able to install the stock ROM 4.16.401 to match the present firmware (which will effectively make the phone the "international" WWE version , not O2). No OTA will presently install after this (since it would already be updated to Lollipop) but you should get future OTA.

But again, I'm guessing a bit here, since its not clear what you end goal is.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmorterlaing:
Thanks so much! My goal was to take it to full 'o2' stock,so I could take it into a store if I needed to. I assumed the nandroid wouldn't have lost the o2 thing though :( is there a way of returning it to exactly as I got it ?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
I too would think the carrier boot splash would return with the nandroid (usually part of the ROM or system partition, as far as I am aware).

You can try to flash the firmware that corresponds with your nandroid, and see if that helps. This should also put the phone in the proper configuration for OTA updates for O2.

While still on the original stock nandroid, what does it say for OS in Settings or on bootloader screen? I'm guessing its 1.54.206 (but 1.12.206 is also possible).
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmorterlaing:
It didn't - I followed the above instructions, the firmware was all sorted (someone had kindly provided it around XDA), which all worked fine. I was then able to do OTA updates right through to Lollipop - but no splash screen came back. Either I did the nandroid wrong, or its hidden somewhere else... or something.... confused!

Perhaps the only way is to get some sort of O2 RUU, but I guess someone would have to provide that right?

[General Questions and Answers] Ciprum:
Shutting down... easy peasy https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=at.specsoft.shutdowntimertrial&hl=en

Booting up... eh... simplified: You must have low level support (like kernel low) and it is just too much trouble setting up. You could however try to set up an alarm because on some phones alarms turn on the phone if it is off. Additionally you can set the alarm to a silent ringtone so it doesn't wake you up.
[General Questions and Answers] faxd:
This one doesn't feature a real schedule, you would have to set it up each day again...

Hmm, thats really a pitty and a serious regression over "not-so-smart-phones". :(

Also why? I even believe my former desktop pc (from 2001) was able to set up times in the bios when to start...

First thing I tried, unfortunately this doesn't work with the Xperia Z3 compact.
[General Questions and Answers] Ciprum:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ll.autoswitch2

Well, Android does have this feature, I have it on my old phone. You can set up a schedule to turn off and on the phone.

The BIOS in a PC is easly accessible, unlike on Android. the BIOS would be the kernel and the bootloader and you don't have easy GUI acess to them like you have on a computer BIOS. The kernel is the only thing running while the phone is off and if it doesn't have a feature of powering the phone on at a specefic time / event it is not going to happend.

Can't help you there.
[General Questions and Answers] Planterz:
You can probably use Tasker to set times to toggle Airplane mode and/or power saving mode. It won't be off, obviously, but it'll be the nearest thing to it.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevew84:
Is anyone having an issue with their power button? I bought one from T-Mobile a couple of months ago and the buttons were tight with minimal movement. Then that Nexus 6 got dropped and shattered the screen so a replacement (brand new in box from Moto via Ashurant insurance) arrived yesterday and the buttons "work" but are very loose and irritating.

Has anyone had an issue like this? The power button only works if i press directly in the center of the button so i have to hold it a certain way. My experience in the past is that if it isn't broken, a free replacement will not be justified. I've turned on T2W and volume rocker wake but was hoping for a power button replacement or an easy fix.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevew84:
Have you gone through a replacement request with T-Mobile? I have, and if it isn't broken (as in not working at all), they won't replace anything.

Google - same boat since didn't buy from them.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevew84:
Oh alright well maybe I can give Moto a shot and see what they say. The problem with the warranty through Tmobile is that I have to pay a $175 deductable in order to get a replacement device.

Of course I'll try with them first, then move to Moto.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:

I take it the handset is subsidised and paid for over a period of the contract?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevew84:
Yea, I pay monthly on top of my bill for service, but even if I bought the phone outright from Tmobile, the warranty issue would still be the same. The deductible would still be present.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ATnTdude:
You seem to be confusing warranty with insurance. There is no deductible to make a warranty claim, you can get phone defects (defect=manufacturer's fault) fixed for free for at least a year after you purchase (in EU it's generally 2 years, because the EU actually protects consumers). T-Mobile can handle that for you and will generally do a better job than Motorola (from personal experience, YMMV).

If you damage it (damage=your fault) by dropping it, then you have to go through insurance or buy another. Good news is that

insurance

replacement phones (like the one you paid $175 for) are considered 'new' and your warranty was reset to the day you received the insurance phone. Bad news is that

warranty

phones may be refurbished, not brand new.

Honestly, these things aren't rocket engines. They don't need to be perfect. They're designed to tolerate a little bit of wobble. If the buttons are just loose, I'd honestly leave it alone and deal with it. You'll be fine. If the buttons seem to 'catch' on something when pressed in or get stuck when released then you should call someone and arrange a replacement.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevew84:
Right, I did an insurance claim because I dropped it, that's fine. What came was in fact brand new in box, it still had the uncut tape on the motorola box and all OEM stuff inside. I came from the Nexus 4 and Nexus 5 and have had similar build defects. In this case, the button does get stuck either while pushing in or when it comes back out. Feels like I'm going to break it when sometimes i have to push with WAY too much force. I'll be calling Tmobile tonight as Moto would not do a repair, only exchange with a fee.
