So I guess I'll go for encryption, since it's the only way to secure my data at this point.

Funny though, on stock phones the only thing between someone and your data is the locked bootloader :confused:. As I'm sure unlocking it would be just as easy for someone else as for me, it can easily be bypassed and one could use fastboot/adb to get to all the data.

Maybe encryption is a worth considering for everyone, or better, manufacturers should include ios like hardware encryption by default.

Thanks for the reply, I'll continue my paranoid security journey on the forums :)

[LG G Watch R] gonavy34:
So my LG G Watch R says just about every other day that an update has been downloaded. It asks to install...so I do so and it comes up with a boot loader screen...I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do. I just restart the watch, and it seems like nothing has happened. Watch still has version 5.0.1 no matter what happens. Is it updating "apps" within the watch, or am I supposed to be taking different options?

Thanks in advance.:confused:
[LG G Watch R] Ginxeng:
Have you rooted the watch? If not try to wipe the cache from the recovery menu.
[LG G Watch R] gonavy34:
I have not, but I did by the watch used. Perhaps it was rooted by previous owner...
[LG G Watch R] Ginxeng:
Maybe it is which explains why the update fails to update. You might have to manually update the watch by downloading the rom somewhere on these forums. I can't be much help on that as I haven't rooted my GWR yet as I'm waiting for the official WiFi update from LG

someone help ?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Staroip:
That's how GSM network works.

When GPRS is in the middle of data downloading/uploading, the incoming phone call will be sent to your voice mail.

When GPRS/Edge is connected but no data transfer at the time, you will still be able to receive phone call.

You should restore it to 100% stock if you`re gona sell it.

OP has deleted his account, but not sure why he would get this, as the main site does not use SSL certificates. It could have been caused by an external domain running SSL using an invalid certificate, or someone was sniffing his traffic with a fake certificate. Hard to say. But I didn't hear of any other reports of errors with SSL certs.
[T-Mobile LG G4] GoMoeJoe:
I am on my second T-Mo LG G4. Both have exhibited a strange behavior that is rather annoying. I've disabled all automatic sync features and the like - in the same manner as I've done successfully with both a Nexus 5 and a LS990 G3.

So here's the issue(s):

1) Whenever I boot the phone - it automatically turns mobile on. e.g. as indicated by "Data Enabled" quick toggle or the Android Setup slider control.

2) Most times when I enable WiFi, the phone (or whatever) systematically turns on mobile data again - and it's damn repeatable e.g. at ~ 15 seconds after I tap the WiFi quick toggle.

3) Most times when I am running off of WiFi, the mobile data will randomly come on by itself even after I hammered it off that first time in response to manually turning on WiFi.

Zero technical assistance from the obvious sources. LG points the finger at T-Mo. T-Mo points the finger at LG.

I'm starting to think this is related to the Lollipop API change crammed down everyone's throat by Google.

I'm on metered service and have grown accustomed to living off of WiFi. With prior phones I was in full control of what I've been charged. With the G4, it's nearly impossible to manage ...

Any thoughts, shared experiences or recommendations ?
[T-Mobile LG G4] rockerrock:
Hmm, there is a setting that can automagically use LTE if the Wifi is detected not to have internet access. I can't think of what it's called at the moment but it's in setting somewhere - possibly WIFI settings.

I would also be sure to disable T-Mobile's "diagnostics" setting in the T-Mobile app and attempt to turn off any other monitoring settings contained within. I think there is a setting that monitors the LTE signal strength and that could be making it pop on.

Other than that, it does seem rather annoying for you! You are on T-Mobile though, didn't you get the 10GB data pass and have the unused data rollover? Another note, why not setup the data limiter in Data Usage to automagically turn off the data after X GB usage. I know it isn't a direct solution but if data usage is a concern, it could work as a workaround!
[T-Mobile LG G4] GoMoeJoe:
Hey, thanks for the response and suggestions.

To be clear, I'm on Ting's GSM network - which is serviced by T-Mo.

I'm well versed with Android and prior to this phone I was on a Nexus 5 with 5 .1 .1 and it didn't behave like this.

I've tried all the buried settings to get in front of "enabled" data on two different G4's but nothing is panning out.

And yes, I did think of that T-Mo diagnostics app and it's not enabled - at least not on the surface.

And one more thing, my WiFi is solidly connected when data goes rogue robot.

Hadn't considered the data cap setting. Seems clunky but might help until a custom ROM is available.

Hello Everyone,

I bought one LG Optimus PAD L-06C and I have been getting error messages when downloading from google play store.

It is supposed to have wireless access but it is not detecting any wireless in my house and my office.

The android version is 3.1

kernel version is 2.6.36.3+ Optimuspad@withgoogle#1

I have read about rooting but none is working for me so far

I have also tried taking my Google account off, deleting play store cached data and Google framework service data but still not working.

Please help me out.

Thanks in advance for the assistance.

Regards.

SB.
[XDA Assist] It_ler:
Unfortunately there is not much about your exact device on xda.

I assume that you have already removed your wifi network connection and re-added it. Enabled airplane mode and disabled it again. Tried other devices to connect to your wifi.

And you have no internet connection via wifi at all, or is it just an issue with Play store?

Maybe best to do a factory reset and start all over.

If it's just an issue in Play store, check this [Help Thread] Google play errors Explained (with fixes) [Updated 23 Aug 2014] by mohamedrashad thread.

And here is what others have done to get Play store downloading again: [FIX] Google play store not downloading apps by MScorporation95.

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Economistaterry:
I tried changing my HTC One M8_WHL PVT SHIP S-OFF into developer edition using the guide on http://htc-one.wonderhowto.com/how-...edition-for-super-fast-sense-updates-0156524/ . I successfully changed the MID and the CID without breaking a sweat. After, I used TWRP to restore the backup which the guide instructed me to download and restore. After restoring that backup, device could only boot HBOOT. Now I tried running the RUU.exe for Developer Edition and I get the error which asks that I run the correct RUU for the device. Now, the device doesn't boot pass HBOOT

What I can do ...

1. Boot into TWRP recovery

2. Give fastboot commands with HBOOT

3. Boot into RUU via fastboot

What I can't do ...

1. Boot the device

2. Revert the MID change to its original state cos I will need to run ADB Shell to do that, which cannot be done from HBOOT

3. No RUU.exe is responding to flashing the device

The specific help I need ...

1. Be able to Change MID using Fastboot so I can run a SPRINT RUU

You forgot the most important thing to do before doing something like this....read.

Have you tried running the command to change the MID while booted to twrp?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Economistaterry:
As I have been using my GSM SIM in it, it didn't occur to me that it could be any different from a GSM Model. When I bought it, it came with S-Off and CID 11111111, though the bootloader was locked (like any other locked HBOOT from factory, not relocked).
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Economistaterry:
Kindly show me direct me to a thread on how I can change the MID while booted to twrp. Thank you.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Sloth:
is Sprint which is CDMA not GSM.

You said in your first post you could not revert your MID because you can't run adb shell... adb works in recovery...it's worth a shot.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Sloth:
Try changing your CID to SuperCID then try the Sprint RUU.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Economistaterry:
ADB Shell won't start in TWRP sideload. But ADB devices comes out positively with the list of devices attached.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Economistaterry:
This was one of my first options. Didn't work.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Sloth:
Have you tried changing it back to Sprint CID?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Economistaterry:
I haven't. The device came with Super CID. Let me try that and see. However, I tried flashing the firmware of Sprint via RUU with Super CID. The MID error showed up. I feel same will happen even if I change to Sprint CID, but I'll give it a shot.

Hi all,

This question must have been asked a thousand times but not precisely as follows.

I have TWRP installed with Cyanogenmod 12.1 Nightly on my HTC One M8 (International)

If I were to encrypt my phone, through settings --> security --> Encrypt storage/Phone that is,

What effect would that have on recovery backups?

Lets say I encrypt it,

Go to recovery and make a full nandroid backup. would that be possible in the first place, And if so what would be the result of restoring this backup? would I have my encrypted /data partition again that I can acces with my pattern unlock screen which is also still the same.

Would I end up with a bunch of unreadable files?

Or would TWRP not allow me to backup my data in the first place?

edit: the reason I'd like to encrypt it is because I have an unlocked bootloader with TWRP and cyanogenmod and therefore anyone could simple hop into my recovery from boot and extract all my data to an otg-usb or something along those lines.(BTW, is the performance hit in real life significant?)

Thanks

Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. You know, the best place to ask is in your device's specific forum here,http://xdaforums.com/htc-one-m8/general. But if you back up an encrypted device with twrp it'll restore it to just like it was when you backed it up, encrypted.

I got the phone, and when i turned it on it did its typical installs but got stuck at the end looked like it was done i waited 5min didnt budge so i rebooted.....then i tried using wifi and it would turn on, pick up the network,ask for the key, everything ..it says connecting, then 3sec later it just dies says unaviable, and keeps doing it over and over, has MAC address, has some wierd letters and number under NETWORK ADAPTER then IEEE 802.11b/g compatible wi-fi..it SAYS "use server-assigned IP address" and in the box instead of saying not connected its showing fe80::3777:19ff:fe0 .... i think thats abnormal, i tried hitchhiker, i tried unsecure network, nothing....anyone have any idea? i did hard resets i flashed it...i was on the new ATT rom but then cid unlocked and are now on VP3g wm6 rom....any help is greatly appreciated, but i really think its hardware, i just want another opinion.......

Hi,

I have been putting off updating my OnePlus for a couple of months now. It was working fine and I didn't see much of a point to it. The constant notifications to update the phone started getting to me so I finally did the deed and accepted the update. Low and behold my phone keeps throwing errors and now I cant send messages or really do anything.

Error list:

"unfortunately the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped", this error pops up every time I hit 'OK' to clear it.

Google Play services unable to run. I also get notification to update Google Play Services but when I go to download it the download get stuck and doesn't complete.

Messages also will not send. I'm not sure about receiving messages, not enough friends where I get texted that much :).

I have been looking for over 2 hours now and cant seem to find a fix. I am not the best with phones by any means, I just use it mainly for texting and calling plus reddit and occasional games on the side. If there is any recommendations to fix this problem I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

Here's a very short guide how I managed to install XPosed on M9+ on S-on. On s-off don't try, it bootloops, no fix found that for yet, you must be s-on

It's not with latest release by rovo, I didnt try it yet at all. But anyway, here's what I did.

First of all, you take all responsibility if following this guide, installing these things on your phone.

Second I have no credit regarding the framework or anything, so I'm just sharing how it worked out for me. All credits to rovo86.

Third: make a damned backup in custom recovery before even bothering installing it :)

Had an odexed ROM on my phone, and it worked. So e.g. CleanSlate 1.1 I had installed, without deodexation.

Downloaded:

xposed-sdk21-arm64-20150430.zip

XposedInstaller_3.0-alpha2.apk

From custom recovery (TWRP), I installed the framework xposed-sdk21-arm64-20150430.

Then rebooted. After about 30 minutes of App optimization with a dozen or more soft and hard reboots, the process finished with the optimization and phone started.

Then I installed the alpha2 3.0 XposedInstaller APK from file manager (Unkown Sources enabled).

Then started it, Downloaded a mod, ticked it and soft rebooted from Xposed installer. Then it was showing that the XPosed bridge is working fine and I could install mods and they mostly work.

- Unfortunately Sense Toolbox 2.0 for Sense 7.0 does not start because M9+ has another framework structure than M9 Android 5.0.2. The com.htc.resources.apk is gone, and thus the mod cannot work.

- Xtended Settings do work most parts, no crashes, very good!

- Sygic crashes with XPosed, you need to install an older version of Sygic to avoid crashes with XPosed, download APK here: http://xdaforums.com/xposed/xposed-lollipop-sygic-causing-problems-t3114229/page4

That's all.

All credits to [MENTION=4419114]rovo89[/MENTION]

Also check out Sense Toolbox 2.1.1+, it's a perfect completion of customized Sense 7 experience on m9+

===========

UPDATE: tried latest installer from official thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3034811 (xposed-v66-sdk21-arm64.zip - [(5.55 MB, 250 views) and XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk - (611.8 KB, 72418 views)

it works, but same VERY slow process after installation of framework, optimization takes about 1 HOUR with countless soft and hard reboots.
[One (M9+) General] tbalden:
Known issue (with these alphas, and latest too): Sygic is crashing with XPosed installed
[One (M9+) General] cimbom:
Does it work xtended settings
[One (M9+) General] tbalden:
i've since removed XPosed since I want to use Sygic in the coming days.

Maybe someone else can try and answer.

Probably it might work partially, and at least it will start, because it's using stock android UI for the settings part, while Sense Toolbox is using HTC framework and does not start on Android 5.1 HTC M9 and Android 5.0.2 M9+ (because of the missing com.htc.resources.apk).

I may try it later tho when I get back from this vacation in about a week, if no one else tries till then. I'm curious too
