Of course I would buy the one phone that won't allow a root. Have we had any news on working roots of any kind?
[HTC Desire 526] DBlake1:
Nope. I've been strongly considering trading this phone for a GALAXY S4 or other on Craigslist. I've been so frustrated by the utter lack of rooting dev for 5.1.0.
[HTC Desire 526] zounduser:
So what htcdev unlock bootloader won't work?
[HTC Desire 526] DBlake1:
Htcdev bootloader unlocking is only for the non carrier version. Verizon locks all their bootloaders and rarely unlocks them. Hell, my Moto Droid X2 is a prime example of this.
[HTC Desire 526] blahforme:
Is this issue dead in the water? That's a bummer because I would love to be able to remove this bloatware. I picked up an unlocked Verizon HTC Desire 526 with Android 5.1 lollipop but the bootloader is locked and can't root it. ?

Temp rooted but bootloader not unlocked.

I've temp rooted my phone but is there a way to unlock my bootloader without a computer?

My computer finally stopped working so I can't use it anymore.
[HTC Desire 526] BigCountry907:
Lets get this puppy

I have a plan.

I bought this phone because it has the same chipset as my desire 626s.

The reason i picked it up is because it was $35 and I been compiling my own firmware for the 626s.

So this is a test device for me. If i fry it I dont care too much. ( I'm planning on testing the 626s firmware on the 526 )

Both are MSM8909 boards, Qualcom Snapdragon 210

To get the bootloader unlocked.

We just need to patch the FRP image.

bigcountry@bigcountry-G551JW:~$ fastboot oem get_identifier_token

...

(bootloader) [KillSwitch] : /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/frp

(bootloader) [KillSwitch] Last Byte is 0X00, disable unlock

(bootloader) [KillSwitch] oem unlock Turn Off!

I'm thinking if we take the FRP.img from my 626s ( that allows unlocking )

And Flash it to replace the FRP.img on the 526.

We should be able to unlock the bootloader through the HTC-DEV site like normal.

The link for the 526 firmware isn't a firmware link it is the Kernel Source.

With that Kernel Source I can Build the TWRP recovery for the 526.

So if we flash FRP and unlock bootloader then falsh TWRP Recovery then Flash supersu through TWRP we have perm root.

In order to do this I need temp Root.

Good enough to

dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/frp of=/sdcard/frp.img

Then either I will use the 626s FRP or hex edit the 526 FRP and then.

dd if=/sdcard/Patched-frp.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/frp

After that the rest is easy.

How are you getting temp root?

---------- Post added at 03:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:36 PM ----------

Confirmed

I just verified this method on my Desire 626s.

Turned on and off the OEM-Unlocking setting in Developer options ( HTC DESIRE 626s )

Compared the FRP.img in the hex editor.

Locked Wont allow fastboot oem get_identifier_token

<a href="http://s1376.photobucket.com/user/Big-Country907/media/Locked%20FRP_zpsmacpx7cx.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1376.photobucket.com/albums/ah40/Big-Country907/Locked%20FRP_zpsmacpx7cx.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo Locked FRP_zpsmacpx7cx.jpg"/></a>

Unlocked will allow fastboot oem get_identifier_token

<a href="http://s1376.photobucket.com/user/Big-Country907/media/Unlocked-FRP_zpsrnyv3oxz.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1376.photobucket.com/albums/ah40/Big-Country907/Unlocked-FRP_zpsrnyv3oxz.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo Unlocked-FRP_zpsrnyv3oxz.jpg"/></a>

So all we have to do is pull the frp.img and change the last "0" to a "1".

Then flash the edited frp.img

If we can get the temp root we should be able to do that.

If you share how to get temp root I will test it and build theTWRP recovery.
[HTC Desire 526] DBlake1:
We haven't even been able to achieve temporary root due to bootloader lock.

I've already rooted my phone with Kingoroot so I'll try unlocking the boot loader after its done backing up.
[HTC Desire 526] BigCountry907:
Great can you tell us what version of kingroot you used.

I will try to root in a little bit.

Then If I get root I promise I can unlock the boot loader
[HTC Desire 526] BigCountry907:

The post above yours said KingoRoot not KingRoot.

I just did this using the Windows application. The Android apk was unsuccesful.

I'm working on a way to unlock the bootloader
[HTC Desire 526] mick_k:
Hello everyone!

To unlock the bootloader - first you need to get a S-off for you device.

I used to get S-off XTC2clips (Using XTC2clips the cost for me 5$)

After this I change CID : fastboot oem writeCID 11111111

The next step - the last bit has changed (0 -> 1) in the section frp

The final stage - reboot to download mode, write fastboot oem get_identifier_token, copy-paste token to form htcdev.com , You get a key file to your e-mail, copy your key file fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock._Code.bin, Then - look at the screen, agree with unlocking by pressing the Volume Up button, the power button confirms the selection. The device will reboot - ВСЁ!

The question remains of Custom_recovery... Where to get CWM or TVRP recovery for this device?
[HTC Desire 526] BigCountry907:
I unlocked with the xtc 2 clip.

I only changed the last byte in frp to 01.

Used the xtc2 software to unlock the bootloader.

Then s-off and Super Cid with the clip.

If we can figure out what bytes in the unlock token = the cid

Maybe we could change last byte of frp (this enables unlock token generation)

The token gets rejected because of the cid being verizon cid.

But if it is a string in the unlock token that is the cid of the device.

We can replace the verizion cid string in the unlock token with the cid from our unlock tokens.

Oh and I am working on building TWRP recovery.

I have compiled everything for the 626s now I just have to port it over to the 526.

Shouldn't take too long.

It just shuts down. And I have to use power button to start it again. (No shut down animation, it just go dead)

The problem starts when I stopped the Google Now. Yes I am sure. Last night I stooped it from settings. And since then phone is shutting down by itself.

So should I again start it. But I don't want it.

Am on the latest version LMY48I and not having any of those issues. You might have a conflict in cache, or your battery could be failing, or may have an errant app or process causing issues. You would probably be well served to run a Logcat of the issue, and see what it is exactly that is causing the issue. That will help you narrow down the root cause, and determine if it is hardware or software.

[Samsung Gear S] jbarm:
My Gear S died on me today.

Went running for first time with Gear S. Turned on GPS and tracking worked fine. About 50% battery at start of run.

About 1 hour later hit button on watch and no response. Thought it was strange, but thought battery died. Put on charger for several hours, but charge indicator didn't light up.

Held button for 30 seconds and 1 minute to see if it would reset. No response at all. Attached to several other cables and charge plugs plus PC USB port. Nothing worked.

Got this through eBay Buy.com deal two months ago. Not sure about warranty.

Any suggestions appreciated. Hate to see $200 go down the drain. Plus I like this watch!

jb
[Samsung Gear S] jbarm:
As a follow up: tried laptop port fix suggested for Gear 1. No change at all to condition of watch.

Just dead. No flicker on screen or anything like it.

Guess I will try to escalate to Buy.com/Rakutan.

Update: Looks like Samsung will offer warranty service on it.

Second Update: Identified the problem -- aftermarket charger that came with my refurbed Gear S does not charge device if device has zero charge. Stopped by BestBuy today and tried one of their chargers and the watch started to charge. Put a partial charge on it and then tried my generic charger and it now charges.

Ordered an OEM Samsung charger from Samsung ($29 on their site).

Lesson learned: OEM Samsung charger may be needed to revive completely discharged battery on Gear S.

Hey there.

Just received my Oneplus 2 yesterday pretty happy overall but having some issues with couple things.

First, I travel a lot so I use Fly Delta app quite a bit. For some odd reason this application will not open on my Oneplus 2. Anyone have the same problem?

Second, my wifi download speeds are pretty terrible. I get about 1/5th of the available speed. I did a side by side speed with Oneplus 2, ZTE Axon and S6. Oneplus always gets around 9-10mbps as opposed to the other phones (they get ~50mbps)

Last but not least I find OnePlus quite a bit slow compared to ZTE Axon (which has the same exact hardware) and way slower than my S6. Apps open a lot slower, information takes a lot longer to load, browsing is laggy. At this point, I am pretty disappointed and the phone is not living up to its hype Oneplus makes is out to be.

Anyone else having the same issues mentioned above? Any help will be greatly appreciated, if anyone knows how to fix any of the issues mentioned above.

I've been trying to unlock the bootloader since the A5CN701 update. Here's how i've tried:

1. Go to developer options -> Tick OEM Unlocking

2. Use the launcher.bat from IntelAndroid-FBRL-05-16-2015.7z from this topic http://xdaforums.com/nokia-n1/general/play-store-howto-t3118965

3. Use the T4 option and the tablet ends up like this (because the bootloader is locked):

4. Use fastboot and enter this code:

fastboot oem unlock

Then the cmd console and the tablet should look like this:
