Stock Recovery

Dear friends,

I have an HTC one M8

Android-5.0.1

Network Provider- Three Republic of Ireland

Bootloader status- Unlocked

S-ON

CID-H3G__001

I am trying to do an OTA-4.25.771.6

I was on TWRP Custom Recovery

I tried to reflash to stock recovery to do the OTA and unsuccessfully tried the below mentioned Stock recoveries from XDA developers.

stock+recovery+1.54.771.5+recovery.img

and

stock+recovery+1.12.771+recovery.img

I see a Red triangle with an exclamation mark when I try to run the Stock Recovery.

Can anybody suggest any solutions

Many Thanks
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Those recoveries are

way

too old to work, it needs to match your current firmware (hboot, etc.), which sounds like Lollipop Android 5.0 (those are Kitkat Android 4.4.2 recoveries).

I assume you have the stock Lollipop ROM? Since you need the stock ROM (in addition to stock recovery) to OTA. And trying to install the recent Stagefright OTA?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
You need to install 4.20.771.2 stock recovery or the one that from OTA 4.25.771.6.

And make sure you have a non-rooted stock 4.20.771.2 ROM running on your device

mANY tHANKS FOR THE REPLY,

I am trying to install the recent 4.25.771.6 OTA.

I am on a stock rom.

Can you please give me a link to the Stock Recovery I should flash.

Dear CKP5

Many thanks for the reply.

Do I need to unroot my Device which is already on Stock Rom to do an OTA.I have'nt messed with any default apps that came with the device. I am already receiving the notifications to do an OTA on the device.

I could'nt find the stock recovery.Can you please give me a link to the same.

Regards
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
Definitely you need a non-rooted stock ROM.

If you unroot your ROM, most likely it won't work either as the root itself change some files.

Restore the system part only from a non-rooted backup to avoid problem. You can keep your data.

Install stock recovery then do OTA

Check link in my signature for all files that you need.

And FYI .. this OTA will upgrade your system to 5.0.2 but unfortunately the stagefright fix only fix 6/7 vulnerabilities

Hey Guys,

any of you got GravityBox working for changing the QuickToggles?

Battery options, Pie Control and Navigation Bar options are working for me but not the QuickToggle Controls.

Or do you know another working xposed modul?

I know the Rom from existenz from niaboc can do this but i'm looking for another way.

and i know that gravitybox is not fully supported for xperia devices but maybe you guys know a solution for me! :)

Flashing kernel and ROM.

When flashing a ROM and kernel is there any particular order which I should use. I will be flashing the Rhinestone kernel and it's WiFi fix as well as the RaptorRom GPE ROM and it's WiFi fix. Should I do the WiFi fixes after their perspective components, and which should I flash first the kernel or the ROM. I'm thinking kernel first, then it's WiFi fix, then the ROM, followed by its WiFi fix.

please help me

how i configure that the folder my documents will be store at my storage card.

thanks
[P3600 Software Upgrading] ww2250:
Don't think there's a way to configure the location of the default "my documents" folder location. If you want to save files to card, you have to manually select the destination folder.

For those ancient apps that don't offer a folder dialogue for you to choose from, I vaguely remember that replacement DLL that you could use to replace the standard save dialog to include folder selection. But I don't recall it's name now.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] claros:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System \Explorer\Shell Folders

"My Documents"="\Storage Card\My Documents"

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services

Forget it, it was on old trick I wrote very fast... but it doesn't work on my trinity....

PS:

Ok. On my trinity WM6 the following trick works:

You need something like Total Commander CE, PHM Registry Editor or any other tool to modify registry. Be careful.

Change

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\File Explorer\LocalPath

in

\Storage Card\My Documents

This affect just any file explorer window

[P3600 Software Upgrading] saminegm:
... and Active Sync will still Sync only the My Documents Folder on your device, which makes the whole registry editing useless...
[P3600 Software Upgrading] claros:
I haven't tried (reflashed yesterday) but that setting (in HKCU) change only the initial directory of explorer, so it should have any effect on active sync.

The setting in HKLM seem to have no effect, so there is no need to change the active sync folder...

PS: I'm wrong, yesterday my active sync backup worked so I've tried...

The Sony Xperia Z1 Compact is an Android smartphone produced by Sony. The Z1 Compact has a 4.3 inch display and is released as a cheaper and smaller version of the Xperia Z1 which features a 5-inch display.

The Japanese version of the Z1 Compact, dubbed the Sony Xperia Z1 f (SO-02F), was unveiled on 10 October 2013 and was released on 19 December 2013 exclusively for NTT DoCoMo. The international Z1 Compact was subsequently unveiled during a press conference at CES 2014 in Las Vegas on 6 January 2014 and was first released in Sweden on 24 January 2014; entering more markets in February and March 2014.

Like its larger sibling, the Z1 Compact is waterproof and dust proof, and has an IP rating of IP55 and IP58. The key highlight of the Z1 Compact is its 20.7 megapixel Exmor RS camera, paired with Sony's in-house G lens and its image processing algorithm, called BIONZ. The phone also comes with a dedicated shutter button and has an aluminum uni body design, with a glass front and plastic rear. The product white paper for this device was updated in mid-February 2014 to reflect the use of plastic on the rear panel, rather than the initially reported glass.

Pre-requisites:

Before we go any further, Please check your phone model number by going to Settings -> about phone -> Model number, If yours match this Number D5503 Then you are good to go.

Make sure your phone's battery is above 50% charge.

Hello!

I am the proud owner of a Galaxy S5 NEO – SM-G903FXXU1AOGG, on Android 5.1.1.

It's a work phone and I use it for calls, texts, email and with S4 I used it in conjunction with Sidesync.

Turns out, Sidesync, does not support the S5 Neo, and apparently the S5 Neo does not have the mirror feature??

So, I try Airdrop, but to use airmirror, my device needs to be rooted.

So, question is, can I root this device, and if so, when will it be available?

I suppose custom Rom is not possible (ie. different camera, processor etc) yet?

Thanks for the help!:)

Ok so I updated to 5.1.1. using prerooted flash and all worked fine except I lost all my wifi passwords, I did a twrp backup of 5.0 before doing the update

so I have looked and found where wifi passwords are stored (/data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf) but when I look for this file I get to /data/misc/ but there is no wifi folder there either on the phone or in the twrp backup I did before updating

I know I am probably doing something stupid like looking in the wrong place but it seems fairly simple

root folder /data/misc/wifi/ what am I missing, does the xperia do this differently to other devices ? I have one stored password on the phone already and have used a password display app from the PS and it is able to find the details so why can't I

My XT1521 is stuck at Fastboot, after trying to install last night's OTA update. The Bootloader Logs screen says "failed to validate system image" followed by "Boot up failed".

All of my important data is backed up. I don't care about preserving any data on the phone; I just want to get it working again.

The attached photo shows what I can see.

After connecting the USB cable, "fastboot devices" returns TA38502SB6 fastboot

Is this something I can fix myself, with appropriate software? Will I need to approach Motorola? Is it beyond help?

Not sure. It was only around 20-30MB or so; can't remember the exact size.
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Loganberry:
OTA update was advertised through the normal Motorola OTA feature. All I did was to tap on "Yes, I'm in" to accept it when it was offered.

If my phone's ruined, then it's ruined. Irritating, but not the end of the world; a new Moto E2 isn't expensive. I'd just prefer not to have to buy a new one if there's any hope of resurrecting this one. As I indicated in my first post, the important data is safe; I just want a working phone again.

Edit: just re-read your question; realised I might have misunderstood part of it.

My phone had previously been rooted; before accepting the OTA update I went through the steps to unroot the phone before taking the OTA update; looks like something went wrong somewhere along the way.

I have a similar issue, I just accepted the OTA update from Motorola on my XT1511(otus), It was stock/rooted. The phone went into boot loop. Tried these things to remedy

1) tried booting to TWRP from fastboot. I'd get the TWRP splash screen, but no functionality

2)flashed TWRP - now have functioning recovery, but during rom flash get "error, cant mount /data

3)fastboot -w successfully wiped data, but couldn't format partition, still raw

4)From twrp "mount" screen couldn't check the box for mounting data

5)from twrp wipe>format data was able to format the partition

6) I've flashed a couple of twrp recovery images, and a couple of different roms, I don't get error messages, but now when the phone is powered on it always boots into recovery, even when reboot>system or reboot power off is selected. I can still access fast boot.

Any suggestions? I'm going to try returning to stock at this point'
