OTA file to bring the m8 on Verizon up to 4.17.605.9 and patch stage fright exploit.

Would a dev be kind enough to put together a rooted version on this? I do not know what else is included in this update so feel free to grab it from my Dropbox and tear it open. ? thanks in advance!

can you do a pull of system?

adb pull /system
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jrg67:
Hi Andy!

I haven't installed the OTA on my phone. I have twrp so it fails and I just didn't want to chance losing root by flashing back to stock recovery.

Anyone else want to give it a go and get this man the system pull??

Thank you Andy!

New firmware?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] mattie_49:
Did this ota come today my friend
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] santod040:
Yes, firmware posted here: LINK
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] mattie_49:
I just ruu'd 5.0.1 and is saying system is up to date. User keys 4:1:7
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] santod040:
Strange, well, stock rooted is uploading FWIW...
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] mattie_49:
Also tried downloading ota from op and flashing through stock android recovery. Went through the process and got stuck in boot. I tried to factory reset and nothing. Just red Verizon screen.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] santod040:
Might as well just flash the firmware and stock rooted rom then. :good:

Full stock rooted is purely stock, plus root , insecure boot and busybox.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jrg67:
Thanks Santo (and andybones)! I and the rest of the community appreciate your work and the quickness that you got this prerooted and uploaded! Glad I could provide the OTA for you!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jrg67:
I just noticed this got moved to the m9 forum.. Not sure why but can a mod move this back to the m8 forums?

Santod can the file be renamed and placed on the SD card as 0P6BIMG?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] santod040:
The firmware, yes.

The roms are Twrp flashable.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] mattie_49:
You know it just really makes me wonder. I ruu'd lollipop firmware and accepted the ota while I was still on stock android recovery. Well to make a long story short , I installed 2 highly rated stage fright detectors and ran them . And of course I failed miserably. So what happenned : HTC & Verizon got together and pretend to patch a security vulnerability with a 200 plus mb ota update to escape lawsuits... Doesn't make sense. ? . Makes me laugh a little.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] dottat:
They did patch 4 of 5 problems. The last one didn't behave as they expected so they are still working on it.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] mattie_49:
Yea was only one of 5
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] santod040:
I posted a patch for all vulnerabilities in my stock Rom/firmware thread. Third post.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] dottat:
Nice
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] elevatorguy:
Sorry for being off topic but do you or anyone know how or if it's possible to patch stagefright on a kk rom? Thanks in advance
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] santod040:
Not possible currently, sorry.

Probably never will be, except for those devices which are still on kitKat and get security updates only.

I can't see manufacturers issuing security updates for OS versions that are older then their current software.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] elevatorguy:
Didn't think it would be patched but can't hurt to ask. One last thing as I understand it stagefright is only an issue if you use hangouts or have auto download in some other mms app set. Am I correct? Again thanks
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] santod040:
Correct.

Disable auto retrieve, or use Textra, or use TextSecure, those are a few options you have for a non patched OS.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] elevatorguy:
I use handcent and turned off auto retrieve so I should be good. One of these days I'll get around to getting on 5.0. I have zero issues with this phone so figured why rock the boat have an N6 to break. Again I very much appreciate the help.

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] delta9:
Can somebody please tell me which ROM is the best WM5 ROM with minimum AKU 2.2? It's for a G3. I need A2DP support included. Jesterz, what is your latest WM5 release?

Also, after such a ROM upgrade, do I need to upgrade IPL, SPL, RadioROM or is that included?

Currently: G3, ROM version 2.20.7.34 WWE (official), date 7/10/06, radio 02.69.21, protocol 4.1.13.30, extrom 2.20.7.114. Do I maybe already have AKU 2.2 with A2DP on this ROM??

Thanks in advance!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] delta9:
Never mind, my OS build is 14928.2.2.0, which means AKU 2.2 (so I found out). All I had to do was install the tornado A2DP patch, and the bluetooth stereo headset works now!
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] ast11:
Please read the limitations before installing or replying!!!!

Hello all. This was a request so I threw this together today as a way of procrastinating and making the long weekend feel a little longer ;)

Sony gives single sim users an easy way to enable/disable LTE from the quick settings. They don't have us Z3 Dual users the same luxury. Lets fix that! This xposed module allows quick and easy enable/disable of LTE for Sim1. Simply install, enable, and restart. Then add the tile the normal way.

LIMITATIONS and known issues:

1. Rarely the tile doesn't correctly update the state at boot. Simply enable and disable the LTE tile, it'll be fine afterwards.

2. Big one- The tile only works with Sim 1. The "Sim card for data traffic" setting will have no effect on this. So keep your data sim in slot 1. Sorry to those users wanting to switch back and forth.

3. The module was only tested on 5.1.1. It may work with 5.0. I've no idea about 4.4. Post your results.

4. A couple of checks were left out that were present in the original code. This module will assume sim 1 is capable of LTE.

As I said, I put this together in a few hours due to a request. It seems to work fine on my phone. But I haven't extensively bug tested it. Hence the 0.1 version number and beta status.

Regarding the limitations. If I have time, I may try to tackle them. #2 will require considerable work as the code currently only supports 1 sim. A number of portions will need to be rewritten. Although, honestly I'm very busy with work and I doubt I'll find the time. The source is posted with this module as usual. I put a few thoughts about this in the source comments. Anyone is free to give it a shot. That's the advantage of open source. :D

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] dschachm:
So I came from the note 4 and thought I would see better battery and screen on time. I see the posts in the note 5 thread that people are getting 7-10 hours of screen on time and maybe the most I can get is 5. Is this from the sprint cell service or something else. I have a lot of apps disabled with package Disabler and I am not rooted. What are your battery stats?

View attachment 3467348View attachment 3467349
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] DarkManX4lf:
Just about the same as yours. I get about 3 hours of screen on time. However, I do leave wifi, gps, and Bluetooth on all the time. I have a bluetooth headset connected for the majority of the time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] dannyyang524:
Most I get is about 3.5 SOT so I would say you're getting pretty good battery life.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] unisoul333:
Confused about the Office apps.

My battery life is good so I can't complain but I find that the pre-installed Microsoft Office apps are taking up quite a bit of my precious juice. Since I have not rooted yet I can't freeze these apps. Is anyone else consistently noticing these apps at the top of their battery usage?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] dschachm:
You can use package Disabler to freeze apps.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] GamerOnOne:
I get great battery, just deboated and used an app called kernel toolkit.

I get 6-10 hours on screen if not more and all day battery with screen off, but my phone is seriously deboated and most apps stopped from starting.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] durandetto:
I get over 3 hours in a 16 hour day. It's not great, but more than enough to get me through the day. The fast charge also helps for the heavier use days.

Recently I updated my M8 to Lollipop via RUU. Before the update, I backed up my phone using HTC Sync Manager (SM for short) but now that I finished updating my phone, SM won't recognize the phone any more. I tried reinstalling, restarting, and or resetting my laptop, my phone, and SM. My laptop does recognize my phone as a media device player and able to access both, internal and SD card memory. When I connected, SM tries to connect to my phone but after a while a box will appear saying that "Device is unavailable. Please reconnect your device.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fitz1883:
Hello,

I've been having issues with when making or receiving phone calls. Sometimes the phone will just freeze, sometimes the call connects and everything is fine until I hang up. The call doesn't disconnect or it takes a long time to do so. For example, today 2 calls that were made worked, but after the call ended, it took about 15 seconds before I head the beep letting me know that the call ended. Originally I had layers installed, but I uninstalled them all thinking that might be the issue. I have tried clearing cache and dalvik.

I'm on T-mobile, running the latest version of Pure Nexus with Pure Nexus Gapps.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

After having the procedure done and all settled cute I saw that had a android update message to 5.1.1 (since to root I installed 5.0.4) then went all happy thinking that would get being a super user and with the updated device falls into the mistake of installing. At the time of restart phone me the message: "ERROR - Update Failed", and has no way to do anything. I've tried various methods but none worked. "Now Joseph," what do I do? haha

Please respond with the correct English because I am Brazilian and I use the Google translator to understand what they say.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shady_BlackSn0w:
First you need to remove root and make sure all root files from your /system are gone.

Root prevent the phone from doing OTA updates because you have modified your system.

If you can't update OTA try flashing using flashtool it will remove root obviously because it's a newer Frimware.

For your information 5.1.1 root isn't the same way as 5.0.2.

Quick tip

if you want to keep your root access try installing a recovery and busybox and make a pre rooted Frimware and flash it in the recovery.

I hope this was helpful.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gahnunees:
Thank you for wanting to help, but have tried for FlashTool, PRF Creator and various manual methods in the mobile itself. Here's a video of how it is: "Z3 COMPACT AFTER ROOTING"

However, recalling that mine is the Z2. I found this video on youtube and that's exactly how is my mobile, but I can not post links forum.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] o0 Matt 0o:
If it's this https://youtu.be/VPrJthvqKfE

Flashtool will fix your issue. Install the drivers and flash a ftf file to fix the system partition.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AK2H:
1.Download a pre-rooted firmware 5.1.1 (flashable zip)

2.Boot into Recovery (TWRP Recommend)

3.Install - Choose ROM direction - flash the ROM zip and wipe cache\dalvik cache

(don't worry this won't wipe your data)

# I highly recommend you to do a factory reset after flashing because if you didn't the phone will be laggy and battery will drain extremely fast

*And If you have xposed installed don't forget to remove it because it may causes problems

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fonblets:
hi guys,

i just wondering why when i using TW such as dn4, nemesis or eclipse, the fps turn very low and games become lagging. i am not sure whether got world of tanks online battle fans here. BUT, when i use CM or aosp rom such as paranoid rom, cm12.1 rom or cmx rom, the fps turn high and with good graphic no lagging at all. All this rom i will use agni kernel. already did to change some setting at agni but still lagging and fps low. but not for aosp or cm base. why? can someone explain how to make the TW rom compatible with gaming. please excuse for my english.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrushTheRealMan:
What's probably happening is the amount of RAM each ROM is using. TW is known to come pre-loaded with a crap tonne of bloat that you don't need (but might want) and more than likely is running in the background. AOSP on the other hand is the complete opposite, it come pre-loaded the basic necessities although they run in the background as well there aren't as many of them impeding your gameplay

[P3600 General] s1rl4ncel0t:
HEllo there, :D

I need to buy a new miniSD card for my P3600.

Therefore, I would like to know the bandwidth of the card reader of P3600, in order to choose wisely the best card for it.

If the badwidth is only 5MB/s, then it's not worthy to buy a card which is 80x...

Another question is: will I loose performance if I decide to go for a 4GB card?...I have this doubt because the bigger the card, bigger the mapping of it ...Therefore, more processing power is necessary...

I think is very usefull information for anybody that needs to buy a card for this device...and for that, all help would be much appreciated ;)

Thank you :cool:
[P3600 General] ww2250:
Probably you have heard all those SD file corruption stories, haven't you?

Nowadays memory cards are real damn cheap - even if it's 80x. But I guess you would want to find the most "compatible" card instead of finding the card with "just right speed".

It's almost for sure that the life span of your card will far exceed your device. The card can be reused - why not buy a better one, stability issues aside.

4GB cards usually come in the SDHC flavors - which doesn't always work as expected since Trinity only comes with partial SDHC support at best, not to mention the corruption bug.... Again you should worry more about compatibility than it's speed...
[P3600 General] Rudegar:
the program pocket mechanics let you benchmark and compare with other brands in other phones

with normal sd the pda is the bottleneck suspect the same goes for microSD

but read and write is never at the same speed for flash

and suspect the interface in the pda is able to write as fast as it can read of the card can keep up
[P3600 General] s1rl4ncel0t:
I don't remember of asking anything regarding compatibility...

My question was regarding the speed...and it still remains:

-Whats the speed of Trinity card reader bus?

-Will I loose performance with a 4GB card?

I already know about the compatibility issues...but if there's no performance issues with a 4GB card, I can buy one of each brand, and see which one is compatible...if any...

I don't think that my questions are stupid, but if you think so, then keeps the thoughts for yourself please.

Regards,
[P3600 General] ww2250:
I don't remember anyone ever said your questions are stupid, but if you think so, then read the whole thread again. Really, that would a disaster if we all follow your logic - anyone who did not reply or did not exactly reply what you ask for would think that your questions are stupid, then basically everyone in this forum would fall into this category.

We are trying to be nice in replying your question, knowing that you are relatively new to the forum, and pointing to you there might be potential problems that you want to avoid when making a purchase decision. At least, I think this is even a more valuable advice for those who want to buy new cards especially for beginners, than just considering alone the speed.

So now, we all know that you are not stupid nor asking stupid questions, then how about if you buy one of each speed, and do a benchmark yourself and then post the results back and share your precious experience with all others? It would be invaluable to your fellow readers especially for those who want to buy a new card.
[P3600 General] s1rl4ncel0t:
Answer my question, and who knows, I'll do it :p

Sorry about my rude answer...but it pisses me off, when a threads starts talking about oranges and finishes up talking about apples....

Any way...it seems like we are always changing roms, searching for the best performance, but at the end, we don't know the speed of the biggest bottleneck in the pda...

It's August...seems like all experts are in holidays :D

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iElvis:
Leave it plugged in overnight with the charger that came with the phone. I've seen this sort of thing happen with HTC phones in the past, and this will usually solve it.

Sometimes when you run it down to 0%, it can take a while before the phone will power on again. This might be a safety feature to prevent damage to the battery that can result from completely draining it (which normally will not happen, as the phone will shut down when it gets to "true" 1% instead of what Android is displaying as the battery charge).
