[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Bulldog:
For my experiences you will get trouble if you have "boot loader" v0.60 and upgrade to WM6. You need min. V1.0
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] SamJJ:
Thank you Bulldog, I'm not upgrading to WM06.

I want to flash another ROM but to stay with WM05.

Should I upgrade my "Boot Loader" to 1.2 anyway ?

what's the use of this "Boot loader"?

BR

Sam
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Bulldog:
You could compare bootloader with BIos of your PC.

I have personaly no experience with V1.2 but since I have read here,it suppose to be o.k.

good Luck and happy flashing

KAMAL Ultimat WM5 Edition is The Best

Thats just my Opionion,have not come across any problems from that Version than from the rest om wm5 & wm6,Ive been testing all roms for months,and can just say that this is the Best rom.Greets
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] SamJJ:
Thanks for the tip M8,

I already download it and will get to it as soon as I have the time and a quiet enviroment...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] SamJJ:
OK ! I made it !!!

I flashed the bootloader from 0.60 to 1.01 according to bulldog's advise and then the ROM according to Christian's instruction and it went well! the device is faster, more pretty ( thanks to Kamal ) and have much more memory ( 70MB vs ~40MB ) :)

The whole process took me less then 15 mins and it was a no brainer :D

Don't know why I was so afraid to do it up until now... :cool:

Many thanks to Christian and Bulldog for the showing me the way!

And of course to KAMAL for his good looking and fast ROM.

One issue tho': I couldn't install the Hebrew support and got a: "Couldn't recognize the platform" error.

I manage to overcome it by exctracting the cabs from the EXE file, copy it to the device and running the CABS from the device.

Other then that everything is looking good, Im installing the GPS software and all my apps and will update if any problems.

Thanks again
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] tuckeyfh:
I need help too

Hey guys, Can't say i'm much different then SAMJJ. After seeing the excellent support he received from BULLDOG & CHRISTIAN i decided to ask the questions.

First of all, i've got a jasjar with WM% and following setup:

ROM Version: 1.30.82 WWE

ROM Date: 02/22/06

Radio Version: 1.09.00

Protocol Version: 42.42.P8

ExtRom Version: 1.30.171 WWE

Now here's the deal, i would like to upgrade to WM6. I need a link to the most stable, bug free version possible. Let me say that i am looking for speed without loosing any of the new features of WM6.

Furthermore, i want to continue using bluetooth & wifi without a problem.

also one more thing i want to setup my JASJAR to use the IPhone theme as it shows below:

The problem is currently the version of this theme is only available for QVGA devices, while JJ is a VGA screen. So i had to resize the icons and background for VGA size in WisBar & WAD, but it is too much work and the result is not that good.

I know OZANKILIC came up with a VGA version few days ago but i need something free and easy to setup. pls. advise also. Awaiting your wonderful feedback at the soonest.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] SamJJ:
Hello tuckeyfh,

You can take a look here:

http://218.93.115.138/d900/wm6

The site is a bit slow and sometimes fail to load but refreshing a few times and it's ok.

I didn't dig much into the WM6 issue so I don't know much about it but for now I prefer using a fast and stable WM5 since I heard there still quite a few apps and drivers issues with WM6.

From my browsinf in the net the most recommendations of WM6 ( AKA "Crossbow") I saw on the net were by JWRIGHTMCPS, Dark force & PDAviet but I'm sure there are others, you just need to download them all and try one by one.

Good luck

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doctorhitch:
When I flashed an 5.0.2 deodexed rom on my S6 I apparently forgot to turn off something so it was stuck at boot.

Then I downloaded an 5.0.2 stock rom but it failed at the end. Don't even know why. Now I have to download Kies and recover it.

The reason why I want to stay at 5.0.2 is because I rooted my phone, will it recover back at 5.0.2 or will it go straight to 5.1.1 and trick Knox etc? Knox is such a fkn hassle. Any other way to go straight to 5.0.2?

Thanks in advance :good:

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pholmes38:
New member here, first post.

I had my g4 several weeks ago (uk version). Great phone, however recently the screen seems far too sensitive. Sometimes apps or other features are activating on their own without me pressing on them.

I looked in the settings but havent found a way to resolve this. Can anyone offer any suggestions?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pholmes38:
Just to clarify a bit more about my issue.

Its like the "floating touch" some phones have, where i can be an inch or two away from the screen but it still activates. More rarely, it seems as if it was activating by sensing light or movement. Strange. Is the g4 supposed to have this type of function?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GUGUITOMTG4:
That sounds like a problem. The G4 is actually known for lacking sensitivity and yours is doing the opposite. enable this settings to see if it is actually detecting ghost touches.

Settings, About Phone, Software Info and tap on 'Buidld number' 7 times. Then go back to settings and tap Developer options, enable 'Show Touches'

if the dots show without your intervention, then it's likely due to faulty touchscreen.

Anyways, do a factory reset and see if it helped.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pholmes38:
Thank you. I will give that a try,

As it happens intermittently, i cant say how quick i will find out if that is the solution, but you have been helpful.

Same here, on Imperium and Stock rom, I have the phone since 6 months and it is a really random issue... my bootloader is unlock so I don't know if I can send it to warranty.

For information I have enable the touch "tracing" in developper menu, and when the issue occurred it's getting me perfect vertical line from bottom to top screen, and open a lot of apps..
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bloodsuckingcomputer:
And from the sound of it... Yours pretty much ****ed, at least to my knowledge. Hardware screwed and no warranty. Just bought mine like 3 weeks ago, and hated it so much. So much hyped, but the experienced is so far ****ty at best.

I suspect mine hardware issue. This seems like it's gonna be the first, and the last LG for me. Even mine with warranty still intact. Blackberry used to give this feeling long ago with their ****ty storm. Now, LG and blackberry can share that same ****ed up grave.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leclampin:
As madgibbon indicates, I was on Accessibility / Motricity / Response time (my phone is in french so i'm not sure if it will be exactly like that on yours) and I have set to "Long".

Since that, the issue is no longer appear, I have also switch to rom V20F (Turkey) with still the same setting for accessibility, and I don't have the issue anymore.

I don't know if it is a hardware issue, my phone falls maybe 4 times but with a case and from a little height, no broken glass or something else.

This is all the things I tried before that ;

Using flipcover (QI charge and quick circle), I have tested the "normal" case but same issue

I had a glass protection, I have removed it and cleaned my screen, same issue

I have done lot of hard reset (i'm kind of full wipe addict), same issue

Only the solution of madgibbon works fortunately, thanks mate

I'm also a bit disappointed by this phone, it is great sure I mean fluid, great camera etc... but I have some little issue that ruin the experience unfortunately (this issue with touchscreen, i'm experiencing issue with my Chromecast too that i don't have with other phones, some heating, I don't find the battery usage so good since MM, can't relock bootloader since now). I don't blame LG because i'm using some of their products and I'm / was really satisfied with : Optimus 2x, Nexus 5, TV, Monitor, Sound Bar. Anyway, waiting for 2016's Nexus and I will see if I switch or not.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] paiger850419:
Okay, I have a Galaxy Note II i317, it used to be my mother's until she had a very tiny crack across the screen to which she got a new Note II at the time. I recently decided to try and use the phone with Straight Talk....

A few things I've done/tried...

Putting the Straight Talk SIM card into the phone, reads No SIM/Emergency Calls Only

Changed the Firmware back to 4.1.1 from 4.1.2 and tried to unlock the phone using the unlock code...unsuccessful

Tried Rooting the phone and using TWRP to change the Baseband... no avail...

I guess the main question I have is if I can even do anything at all to use the phone, or would the IMEI be blocked because of the replacement phone?

Any and all help would be appreciated!!!

Thanks!!![/SIZE]
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gregsarg:
IMEI should not be blocked...(check with carrier to confirm)..

Straight talk is essentially AT&T...but does use a different APN...

And if the SIM is not provisioned for use by your carrier...the phone will show the inactive SIM message.

Once you have determined the SIM is active and correct...you can set up the new APN in your mobile settings menu and be good...

Give them a call and they can help...

You will likely need a new SIM CARD....g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] paiger850419:
Should I call Straight Talk, At&t, or both? I know the SIM works in my S III currently. I just really don't want to let this phone go to waste.

Give straight talk a call first...as they provide the service..g

Should the phone be able to lock when you close the case over the front of the phone? Mine does not.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zeeshanonlyme:
Questions should be asked in Q/A thread not general.

If by Folio case you mean, the original Samsung Wallet flip cover, it will work after you restart the device after attaching flipcover.

You will get an extra option in Edge screen in Settings.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dave_247:
If your using the Swipe method to lock the phone there's a setting in Accessories which is enabled by default which unlocks the phone automatically when you open the cover. If you use a secure method (Pin, Password, Pattern or Fingerprint) it will only turn the screen on instead.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edo101:
I tried that and on 4.4.4 the phone doesn't lock the screen after closing the flip case. I hate that. I don't like using the power button because its time wasting and Samsung has a bad record for have button issues.

I am with the OP. Is there a way to shut down the screen and lock the phone as soon as you close the flip case.

All mine does is shut down the main screen but leaves the Edge screen on, which won't turn off till after about 30 secs or a minute. then it locks the phone.

Try removing any saved fingerprint data & record your fingerprint again.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Codyksp:
Hi,

I recently managed to root my HTC One M8s with TWRP recovery and everything works perfectly, except that I can't install the new OTA (1.16.401.1).

After searching I have flashed my recovery back to the stock for my version (which is 1.11.401.1) and tried applying the OTA again, but it still fails.

I downloaded the recovery from this website: ruu.lalleman.net/HTC_M8S%28QL_UL%29/Recovery/HTC%20Recovery/ (I can't post URLs yet).

Below is the error I receive when trying to update on stock recovery, TWRP recovery also gave the same error when I tried updating there.

(Code -1)

E:Find no match PARTITION: for package path @/cache/recover/block.map

From what I can see my build fingerprint is incorrect, but I have no idea how to fix it...
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darth:
Seems to me it's likely that you've altered some system files while rooted and the Ota doesn't like it.

Now, I don't own an M8s...i have an M8, but I'd say the easiest route would be to flash your stock ruu again. After that the OTA should work.

It's that or figure out what system changes have been made and correct it. Xposed can mess you up, Uninstalled system apps can stop the Ota... MODS that changed system files... Etc. The Ota us looking for a stock system, then it updates it.

Good luck!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Codyksp:
Thanks for the answer, I will see if I can try this solution tomorrow. I just have 2 questions:

What does the RUU do exactly? Should I see it as a complete stock reset of my phone?

And can I simply flash it using fastboot or is there a special method for a RUU?

My previous phone had an automated root and I always updated with OTA afterwards so I never flashed before now.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmokiv:
Im on the same boat. Tried to sim unlock by rooting and playing with CID but didnt work, now ive a rooted m8s and no ota. Tried to ruu but kept getting an error something like not enough space although i had 10gb free, cleared cache rebooted. Cant even factory reset. If anyone know how to unroot it and bring it back to stock that would be fantastic. Kind of want to delete the "flag" too make it "LOCKED" and "OFFICIAL" incase for warranty. Any ideas?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] voidzero:
You guys have flashed 1.16 before, haven't you...?

See here: http://xdaforums.com/htc-one-m8/help/help-thread-htc-one-m8s-to-stock-howto-t3190238

Err, oops, posted too soon. You said you have flashed to 1.11. What is the full filename of the RUU you flashed?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Codyksp:
When I got my phone I updated with OTA to version 1.11, after that I flashed TWRP recovery and rooted my phone. Now that OTA 1.16 is out I tried to update but couldn't, so I tried to flash back to stock recovery but it still wouldn't work because of the error above. Now it would seem that I am doing this the wrong way, and you cannot use OTA on a rooted/unlocked/custom recovery M8s.

Manual OTA flash worked on my previous phone with root which was an ASUS Padfone Infinity A80 as ASUS would release them on their own website for you.

Apparently HTC does not do this, or I am not looking in the right place.

I have never flashed a RUU before, and I don't know how to lock my bootloader again. From what I understand, every time there is a new OTA I will have to lock my bootloader, flash original recovery, flash RUU and then update. That sounds like a lot of trouble every time a new OTA comes out.

Is there no way to manually flash the new OTA without losing root, custom recovery and locking the bootloader? Will I have to follow these steps every time? Also I use the built in back-up to Google as well as HTC back-up but I don't know if all my data is in those back-ups or if I will lose something.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] voidzero:
If you restore a RUU, and afterwards don't flash your recovery and boot partitions, You will see "Software status: official" in fastboot.

Now here's the trick: if you just boot a custom recovery with "fastboot boot my_recovery.img" (TWRP for example) then it will boot TWRP, but you can make the modifications to your system partition without losing "Software status: official" in fastboot.

So: If you just boot your recovery with 'fastboot boot' and don't flash anything, you can make all the modifications you want and still be able to install OTAs later, I think. I've rooted my phone, even installed XPosed, done all kinds of funky things to it but Fastboot still shows me that I'm on official software.

How does that sound?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Codyksp:
So since there is no decent guide at all about flashing RUU for a HTC One M8s (the s makes a difference!). I have assumed that I need to have the bootloader locked first, as I unlocked it. According to all the M8 guides I have to gain S-OFF before I can lock the bootloader again. So I followed a guide to wipe with TWRP and flash a ROM called InsertCoin so that I can S-OFF my phone.

Now after going through the ROM's setup my phone is stuck in a bootloop, constantly trying to boot up. There is NO way at all for me to get it to stop, it just keeps booting the entire time. Not a single combination of buttons is working. Good thing the battery is non removable. How am I supposed to fix this? I've tried every volume up/down/power combination possible. The phone just boots to the HTC - Power by Android screen, shuts off after about 5 seconds and then repeats the same thing over and over. I can't turn it off and I can't get to the bootloader either.

What I need is a guide that tells me all the steps required to get an HTC One M8s (NOT M8!) back to 100% stock. This means, stock ROM, stock recovery, locked bootloader and S-ON. I am getting extremely frustrated by the lack of information and the amount of redicilous things I need to do just so I can root my phone and have OTA as well.

All I want is root on my phone for 1 app that I use with my car radio and I want to be able to update to the newest OTA afterwards, is that really so much to ask?

I am fine with installing a custom ROM with root and easy updates too, as long as the damn phone will boot after installing it and it's actually made for the M8s.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Codyksp:
Well I finally managed to get the damn thing to the bootloader, and I've used "fastboot oem lock" to relock my bootloader. It now shows ***Software status: Modified ***, *** RELOCKED *** and ***Security Warning ***.

I will now have to go to my parents where my laptop is to be able to copy the RUU to my SD card, from what I understand it has to be named 0PKVIMG.zip and then it should automatically install.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Codyksp:
Now the phone says it can't find the image or the image is incorrect.... It searches for, 0PKVDIAG.zip, 0PKVDIAG.nbh, 0PKVIMG.zip or 0PKVIMG.img. and it seems to find 0PKVIMG.zip and loads it but it cannot find the .img file and does absolutely nothing. Am I supposed to have both?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Codyksp:
So it turns out that the RUU zip from http://ruu.lalleman.net/HTC_M8S%28QL_UL%29/RUU/ is actually not correct and I had to use rom.zip which was inside the folder. The phone is now running the "update" as it calls it. Fingers crossed...
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] voidzero:
Yes, possible you need to use rom.zip inside the zip, depending on the version, but I think this applies to 1.16 which I advice against using for reasons previously specified.

---------- Post added at 07:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:47 PM ----------

By the way, I did write an RUU restoration thread specifically for this subject. Did you not find it?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Codyksp:
Apparently I also needed to use the rom.zip for the 1.11 version, in the meantime I have also updated with OTA to 1.16. Afterwards I also unlocked my bootloader, restored my settings and installed SuperSU by booting TWRP. Let's hope the next OTA still works...

I did read your thread but I got stuck at first on relocking the bootloader, as I couldn't find the exact instructions for a while. Afterwards I got stuck on flashing the RUU because I didn't know that I needed to use the rom.zip file to get it to work.

After all that I got quite frustrated and I just wished there was 1 thread with instructions for everything (unlocking, relocking, flashing, compatible ROMs, booting to keep OTA, etc.) which is why I was angry at the time and couldn't properly read everything or find solutions. In the end it all worked out so far though.

I would ask you to create a compilation thread though if you wanted to improve the available information. Either way, thanks for the information that you've already provided.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
The next ota won't work because you rooted it. Root changes binaries which lead to a fail on ota.

You need a non rooted (read : never rooted before) stock rom.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Codyksp:
So in that case I just unroot it before updating then?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
Read my post again...... "a never rooted rom" so that means you need a stock rom before its ever been rooted. NOT an unrooted one because it leaves traces which will cause the ota to fail !

People should learn to create a nandroid backup before flashing ANY mods/superuser.zip/roms etc......etc

:)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Codyksp:
Well developers shouldn't make this such a hassle... My previous phone was an ASUS Padfone Infinity (A80) and it didn't receive any OTAs after being rooted but ASUS simple lets you download the firmware updates on their website and then you can manually update it without any problems. If HTC provides a bootloader unlock, why can't they allow OTA or at least provide manual firmware updates?

I wouldn't mind using a custom ROM either but I have no idea which ROMs work for the HTC One M8s. Would any M8 ROM be compatible? The phones aren't identical, the "s" is there for a reason...
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darth:
I would say that M8 roms wouldn't be compatible, and could even mess up your device badly. Sorry!
