[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
Your point of view is a bit off if you ask me. Developers (in this case HTC) do not have to support custom modding of your phone. They support the device in the state you buy it !

If you want to mod it that's YOUR call not theirs. Do some homework before modding it. Getting a phone back to stock for future updates is relatively easy but many people don't read first how to as they think it's not important.

HTC has no obligation at all towards you regarding custom software !

And indeed M8 roms do NOT work on your M8s !

:)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Codyksp:
What would be your recommended way of restoring it to stock when a new OTA is released? From what I understand I would have to relock the bootloader, flash RUU, update, unlock, root and then restore my phone.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
You have to make "stock backups" so straight after an OTA you flash TWRP and run a full backup. That's all you need basically. Do NOT root it and then make a backup, that's useless !

Then root and mod it if you want. If you want to go back to stock you restore the full stock backup, check for updates and download it if it's there. Then select "install later" and take out the firmware.zip from the ota and take out the recovery.img from that firmware.zip and flash it. Then perform the ota.

Done......fairly easy to be honest.

Oh and you do not have to relock the bootloader when you use a nandroid backup to get back to stock and also not for an OTA. You only need to relock the bootloader if you want to run a RUU when you are S-ON.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Braddinator:
I had the same problem and I have an M8s. Tried the OTA several times. In the end I thought I would try the reset factory settings/wipe all data from the crash screen. I have my google account set to backup regularly, so took a gamble thinking I wouldn't lose much. The phone reset and booted with Android 6 straight away. Then, as part of the set up process phone asks for your Google login, all my contacts, photos, texts, etc updated automatically. All I really had to do was remind the phone what my wifi access codes were. I now have marshmallow. Hope it works for you.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3bs11:
I screwed up somehow. Maybe things changed since I last messed around with Android phones. I went into twrp and did a factory reset then installed latest nightly and these gapps ( https://github.com/cgapps/vendor_google/tree/builds/arm > gapps-5.1-arm-2015-07-17-13-29.zip), were they the right gapps? . Now phone won't boot or go into recovery mode so can't go back to my stock nandroid. I'll try going back to stock using wugys toolkit :/

Edit: I used the toolkit to flash stock + unroot option without wiping data but it finished too fast somehow and the options in bootloader were fixed. I booted up phone and now CM booting up. What did I do wrong and how did I fix it? I'm really confused and would appreciate some help.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bweN diorD:
my guess would be the gapps, mainly because i have never heard of the one you used.

perhaps, try a more notable one, like tk, slim, or banks.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3bs11:
I'll try that if my current setup fails me but why would gapps mess up the recovery? The buttons in bootloader kinda changed to just small text as well and the text under it which had the device details changed but I didn't make note of the changes.

I got the gapps link from the cm page. I guess it might be outdated but that's kind of their fault for not updating in their OP.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bweN diorD:
i cant explain it sorry.

gapps is usually the weak link then there are issues.

Hello

I have my p3600 now for three weeks it's perfect but when i use my motorola 820 stereo headset (trough bluetooth ) A high tone is on the backgrond .

I have HTweakc and tried all four types and the high tone wont go away
[P3600 General] bbobeckyj:
I personally find that a2dp is best after I've deleted all a2dp settings in the registry, then soft reset.
[P3600 General] jaaphooi:
Thank's bbobeckyj

But where can I vind this registry I don't know wat to look for.
[P3600 General] tdub:
The new dopod rom (the updated one) seems to have fixed my A2DP issues
[P3600 General] bbobeckyj:
HKEY_Local_Machine\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\A2DP

I my experience trying different roms on both the trinity and the wizard, deleting the whole A2DP folder has produced the best results. I assume that the headset also is a big performance difference for everyone. I think that once you delete that folder, the settings automatically self regulate to the best/optimum.
[P3600 General] Mozzerr:
Hi m8, are u sure you mean the WHOLE of the A2DP folder? Surely it's just the "Settings" sub-folder, as the parent seems to contain device specific data for the headset(s) you have paired?

Even so, I totally agree with the principal... delete all from the "Settings" sub-folder and the A2DP is DEFINITELY giving the optimal quality stereo! (Remember to let the two devices skip etc. a tiny bit when u first kick off a song/media file as they have to be allowed to auto-negotiate the optimal connectivity settings between PDA and Headset... but once that is done, it's pure joy all the way!!)

Cheers, Moz. :D
[P3600 General] bbobeckyj:
Yep. It is the whole A2DP folder. After I pair a headset afterwards, if I look into the registry again, the A2DP folder has been created, with only the settings folder in that. Which confirms that the ppc and headset can create their own optimal settings.

ie

HKEY_Local_Machine\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\A2DP\Settings

a2dp setting

i have problems with it too.

look here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=303657

i have now removed the reg setting like you said above. now i have stereo, but the quality is less. i don't like it.

before i had set the quality to highest and joint stereo. i prefer quality above stereo.

its not stereo, but most of the time i only use one earphone. so i dont mind if it's not stereo sound.
[P3600 General] bbobeckyj:
I'm curious, what was your prroblem before? did it skip/pause often? I record all my music with the lowest possible bitrate, so quality is not so much an issue to me. maybe the sound is poor because that is the best your hardware can properly support(?)

either way, can you not you not use the tweak prog to use mono?
[P3600 General] jaaphooi:
Alright

I have deleted the settings folder the high tone looks to be les but I am stil working on it.

I can stil not understand it what went wrong ,I had the Imate jam with The A2dp patch from HTC it was perfect ,you would think that they make it better the next time but it's les .
[P3600 General] stormyb:
it had a high pitch in it, high bitrate and stereo at the same time gives sound problems.

so, or a lower bitrate, or no stereo was for me the solution.

meanwhile, i switched to INDIGO WM6. haven't tried BT stereo headset.

but thats another subject. see trinity mobile 6 sub-forum...
[P3600 General] Baronic:
heyz i cant find this registry! i'm a noob here. how exactly do i find this registry to delete? lets say from my pda, i go file explorer, then wat?

i'm having the sound loss problem by the way
[P3600 General] stormyb:
you need a registry editor on your pda, use google to find one, i used the shareware version of SKtools, if you use the find option it works fine.(shareware was only up to show six lines in registry)

hope it helps.
[P3600 General] Baronic:
okay, erm, searching for bluetooth doesnt show me HKLM (local machine). The closest is HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth. and no A2dp folder

I posted the navigation on the first page of this thread;)

if it's not there, then you have the same as if you had deleted it already.
[P3600 General] Baronic:
i just purchased sk tools. yea, now i can find that directory lol. i've just deleted the entire a2DP folder, and will try out my headset again later. hopefully it solves my sound loss problem, i will post my results here later. thanks to bbobecky and stormyb for your patience. hope this works
[P3600 General] Baronic:
alright, now its worse. once the sound stops, it DOESNT COME BACK ON!!!!!

[P3600 General] bbobeckyj:
We need some more details i think.

Does the media player still run, bt headsets take a lot of memory to run, so try turning everything else off.

Which rom are you using?

Which headset are you using?

I use Sony dr-bt20nx with LVSW's rom (I also tried the newish official wm6, and the official wm5, and the orange rom it came in the box with) deleting the a2dp folder already in the rom always produced the best results.

I think it may be a ROM/Trinity/headset problem, but I have to pair it each time I use it, and it usually skips/pauses early during play while it finds the best settings.
[P3600 General] stormyb:
hmm,

plz read next time:

quote of my post earlier:

i used the shareware version of SKtools, if you use the find option it works fine.(shareware was only up to show six lines in registry)

so thats why you could not find it....
[P3600 General] Baronic:
@bbobeckyj

Yes, the media player still runs as normal.

all other programs are off, not using any background programs also such as wisbar.

running on official latest wm6 rom

using itech Blueband headset.

a friend of mine who sells bluetooth headset says this a2dp problem is apparent in all wm6 devices.

i've used LVSW's rom before, and i would much prefer using an official rom. :/
[P3600 General] bbobeckyj:
In that case I would suggest that the headsets are the problem, however the Trinity does have poor a2dp performance, my Wizard is much better - with the Trinity I have to go to settings\bluetooth and add new device each time I use it.

And sometimes, it plays with no sound, so I have to delete the pairing, add new device again. I have to do this each time anyway, but I use mortscript and wm5NewMenu to simplify these steps:(

Sorry, I can't be of much help.
[P3600 General] Baronic:
ah thanks. i've opened a thread in the wm6 section about this, there's apparently dozens of fellow forumers with the same problem. hopefully, a new rom will fix this

Experiment p3600 A2DP

Hi

I have found A solution (I think),I have found out that the extROM from HTC is the problem I have tried to extract it but so fan no results .

The extROM installs couple of files including A bluetooth patch, (The windows a2dp is good ,when jou hard reset and windows installs when it's ready the extROM installs -if you soft reset before the extROM installs it won't install- if you try the audio quality A2DP it's ok. conclusion The HTC extROM ++++ up the A2DP audio quality.

Now I have hard reset my device and let windows install and the extROM and waited for the BT file, befor it could install I soft reset.

After the BT file 2 other files install what the do I don't know.

It's runing for A week now, no problems.

If any one knows how to extract the extROM of the p3600 LET ME KNOW
[P3600 General] Daemon_px:
how did you manage to delete settings? I've tried 2 diferent editors, and it says Access Denied :S

edit: nevermind, got it done with memmaid, testing quality later :)
[P3600 General] bbobeckyj:
Is this in any way different to just deleting the A2DP settings? What are your settings in the registry before and after you pair your headphones?

FYI - dotFred's task manger, freeware, very good.
[P3600 General] jaaphooi:
Hi

This only works if you turn it OFF and ON ,you must not do A soft reset

---------------------------------------------------------------------

The's are the settings of my p3600,as it is now.

I did not get the resultes that I wanted(by deleting files)so I tried this.

I also think that the extROM of htc instal's more things than only settings

so you could not fix (completely) it by changing settings,but it's stil running with GOOD audio.

Q1 should be on amazon NOW!!! HERE.
[General Accessories] ellyphant:
How does this fare as a dac for sensitive c/iems? My ath im02 produces considerable hiss when connected directly to my GS6 and i am looking for a usb dac to fix the problem.

Thanks
[General Accessories] vectron:
This is not a very powerful DAC/amp, geared more toward sensitive and "mobile" impedance IEMs/headphones. Should work good. I know, IM02 is more sensitive, had it before but switched to IM03 because I wanted more impact in low end.
[General Accessories] pauliusval99:
Is the amp really so warm? Is it suitable for classcal music?
[General Accessories] vectron:
You mean "warm" in terms of a sound signature? Not really, for classical music you do want a more organic warm sound, not a thin analytical sound that has no body to realistically reproduce acoustic instruments. Q1 will be perfect!
[General Accessories] pauliusval99:
Thanks for the answer!

Well, I understand I need some warmth in it... But I have had enough with my Sennheiser IEMs which are quite bass heavy. When I got an AD900x, the "flat" but detailed sound astonished me. It's much better than that "warm" sound with no details (I could hear the overall melody, but not really each instrument...)

I think warmth is OK as long as it doesn't do anything bad with the details. Is that the case with this amp (used in DAC mode)? That crisp detail makes me so happy that I would never say goodbye to it ;)

---------- Post added at 10:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:38 AM ----------

By the way, I think I just found a better option for the connector part...

http://m.ebay.com/itm/A-Female-to-B...3D311161209734&_trksid=p2056116.c100408.m2460

It takes just a little bit more space, but it's 0.77$ vs 6$ :)
[General Accessories] vectron:
If you want higher quality, there are other options available (check out a massive review list in my signature, which is also a sticky in the forum at the top). Q1 is the best option on a budget. E12A is a good amp, a lot cleaner and more neutral, but doesn't have usb dac functionality. There are other usb dac options. You can even go as high as $600 with a new Chord MoJo ;)

With usb adapters, I have all of them, including the OTG adapter you found. Q1 already comes with otg cable so you don't need a separate adapter and another cable. The example I showed above is another short cable with adapter built-in with right angled connectors so it takes less space. Otherwise, you will have to get the adapter you have in your link (which btw falls off under the weight and cable pressure) and use another cable to connect to usb DAC.
[General Accessories] pauliusval99:
The link I gave can be used for connecting the fat full USB connector to a smartphone... You can plug the included otg cable to your smartphone using it...

And no, I'm not gonna pay more than 100$, I'm not that rich ;D

Hi all, has anyone tried if the Q1 works with Note 4 upgraded to Marshmallow? I'm thinking to buy it, but I'd like to be sure I can use it as DAC for every audio app (I don't want to depend on specific usb audio players). Thanks
[General Accessories] gabripranzo:
Well, nobody answered, so I went to a shop and tried it ;)

The Note 4 with Marshmallow 6.01 supports perfectly the Q1, USB audio works smoothly.

Great sound and enough volume for my Beyerdynamic DT880 250 ohm.
[General Accessories] vectron:
Thanks for the update! I have so much audio gear, already forgot about Q1, and now VZW pushed 6.01 update on my Note 4 as well. So you saying it works without a hiccup from any app? That's awesome! Gotta check it out.
[General Accessories] gabripranzo:
Well, if you have too much audio gear I can give you my home address, don't worry, you can ship everything here. I promise, I won't charge any cost for my storage service! :good:

Anyway the Q1 works great in Marshmallow, I've been listening to Spotify premium all along the day.
[General Accessories] Lourens.pfister:
Budget vs not so budgety

I know price wise the two are incomparable but how would you rate the Fiio Q1 on a scale of 1 to 10 if the Chord Mojo was 10? Is that a fair question?
[General Accessories] vectron:
I never had a chance to listen to Mojo, but can tell you with certainty the gap should be wide :) But it also depends on your headphones. Budget or low res headphones won't be able to differentiate or to take advantage of the source difference as much as high end TOTL IEMs. Also, sound signature will play a big role, even with high end IEMs. For example, warm-tuned smooth sound earphones don't have the same level of sound layering and separation as analytical/bright headphones do. Basically, what I'm trying to say, there are too many factors and I would need to know what headphones you are using and also I would need some experience with Mojo, which unfortunately I don't have. But honestly, I don't think people are typically deciding between Q1 and Mojo, which one to buy. Do you know what I mean? ;)
[General Accessories] Lourens.pfister:
Hi, thanks for the quick reply!

I use the Fidue A83's bought them after reading your reviewhttp://xdaforums.com/general/accessories/review-fidue-a83-triple-driver-hybrid-t2963956 about them.(love them!!) I've also got the Fiio X3ii. I already own the Q1 but I'm thinking about getting the Mojo. :)
[General Accessories] vectron:
Hmm, tested Q1 with my Note 4 on Marshmallow 6.01 (the latest Verizon update), still doesn't work, even with HIby music which uses its own proprietary drivers and works with everything :(
[General Accessories] gabripranzo:
Really strange. I'm on erobot rom v. 1.2, stock kernel, I simply plug the Q1 and it works. Maybe it depends on the cable? I use the fiio usb cable plugged in the Q1 and a USB otg adapter on the Note side.

The athm50x is easier to drive than my beyerdynamic, so the fiio will manage it easily. In my case the Note 4 uses the DAC natively, so every app works.

So you guys bypassed Samsung's Wolfson DAC to listen to Q1's some ultra cheap unknown DAC? LOL
[General Accessories] gabripranzo:
Try the difference by yourself.

Anyway Samsung's amp can't drive high impedance headphones, so an external amp or dac/amp is required.
[General Accessories] vectron:
Wolfson DAC was only used in EU version of Note 4, not the US version :(

Also, keep in mind, DAC is only responsible for the accuracy of digital to analog decoding, phones are not equipped with good amps and there is no room to put decent size filtering caps. All your digital circuits, wifi and antenna radios and audio and everything else is fed from the same power supply without any good partitioning of the ground, and noise couples in from one device to another.. Of course, if you are using cheap low resolution headphones, you are not going to hear the difference. But when you step up to a decent multi-BA driver in-ear monitors - there will be a huge difference ;) That's why audiophiles spend thousands of dollars on dedicated amps and dedicated portable audio players. Yeah, crazy stuff :D
[General Accessories] gabripranzo:
Maybe you want to know: the Q1 has a Texas Instruments PCM5102 DAC built in.

[General Accessories] n00b_dr0id:
I own/have owned multiple 'audiophile' grade Dac/Amps and headphones too. I don't know what phone has which has what DAC nowadays. I have migrate to DAPs anyway. I had a chance to listen to Samsung S4 and Note 5 myself and I found them very same. Very good sounding. As for amplification and Fiio, I don't like Fiio's options. If Q1 has 5102 DAC, that is a very capable DAC but again opamps are a different story on Fiio. That is my opinion again. As far as BA drivers are concerned, well a 'quiet' amp is rare within $100 price point maybe even $200. And as per the reviews Q1 is noisy. If one is satisfied with Q1 that's good.
[General Accessories] gabripranzo:
Well, the Q1 isn't noisy at all, it seems to be a very good choice for the price. I might not be an audiophile capable to hear the difference in a blind test between a flac and a 320kbps aac file, but I can understand if a device is good sounding, and my Beyerdynamic dt 880 don't forgive anything.

I have also to say I appreciate a lot that the Q1 works flawlessly with my phone. I have also tried to pair it with a Zenfone 2 laser (Android 6.01) and with my Note 8 and I couldn't succeed, so maybe I have been just lucky.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RURon:
Hello everyone,

I have spent a couple of hours now to solve a problem, but I have no ideas anymore.

I let Facebook sync contacts and therefore I get contact photos in my contacts from Facebook (I have no custom contact photos). When I use the stock contacts or phone app, I successfully can see these.

However, when I use a contacts app like for example Rocket Dial (I tried about 5 different ones tho) - I only see 1 or 2 % of these photos. Really most contacts have no photo. When I open a contact that has no photo from within Rocket Dial in order to edit the contact, then of course the contact has it's photo again, because then the stock contacts editor is opened.

Any ideas what I could try or do to get photos back in my contacts in third party contacts apps / dialer?

Thanks for your input,
