[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dasPersonna:
I'm sorry for hijacking this post, but something fairly similar happened to me.

I've got an SM-N900, decided to update to Lollipop but despite all my efforts I've been getting awful battery life so I'd like to go back to KK.

Right now I'm using

Bootloader & PDA: N900UBUEBOF1

CSC: N900PGUEBOF2

Baseband: N900UBUEBOC3

and would like to go back to

PDA: N900UBUDND1

CSC: N900UWADND3

I've been reading and found that you need to flash this if your bootloader is on Lollipop, this is where my doubts begin. How do I know if my bootloader has been updated to Lollipop? If my BL is on Lollipop and I flash that file, can I install any KK rom?

Thank you for reading this, and I apologize for hijacking this thread.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] kcasner:
Flashed the latest RUU from HERE, and it boots into the OS perfectly.

Then, flashed Stock GPE from HERE and also tried LolliGPE from HERE. Both will not get past the boot screen, after waiting over 30min's.

In attempts to fix, the latest full firmware, TWRP, full wipe/dirty wipe, and DH's 5.1 firmware have been flashed, then the custom ROM's flashed again followed. Same issue is persists. Each time, trying to flash the RUU back, boots without issue.

Prior to flashing the latest RUU (hboot method, 0P6BIMG.zip), I have ran all the ROM's mentioned and others without issue.

I'm at a loss of what to try next, or why it's hanging. Right now, i'm leaving it for hours at the boot screen, but I doubt this is going to cure anything and only provide a hot phone during the whole time.

The phone is unlocked, S-OFF, and SuperCID.

Any suggestions i'm willing to try.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] kcasner:
Update:

Woke up 6+ hours later, and it was still stuck on the boot screen.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] kcasner:
Flashed the latest Fluent ROM found HERE, and it boots fine. Then did a full wipe (Cache, Dalvik Cache, Data, System), then the standalone data wipe, and factory reset. Installed GPE from HERE, and it stuck on the boot screen again after waiting 20min's...

Next step i'm going to try is 4.4.4 RUU, then full latest OEM firmware. If GPE doesn't boot still, i'll try DH's 5.1 firmware.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] kcasner:
Still has the same problem.

I have no idea what else to try. Wish I never flashed that damn RUU file!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] santod040:
The stock secure boot.img is probably what's causing you issues.

Choose a Rom, take it's boot.img and fastboot flash it.

fastboot flash boot boot.img

Then flash the Rom.

Profit...!?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] kcasner:
That was exactly it, what a relief. Thank you!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] dottat:
Run files are not to blame or the problem. In fact, if you simply flash a full ruu file your phone would boot up fine.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] kcasner:
That's what I said in the first post/sentence. The boot.img in the RUU was the root cause for other ROM's not booting. This was verified 3x with identical results.

santod040 was spot on :good:
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] dottat:
I don't think you follow me.

The ruu is the same as stock.

Do you recall having to manually flash an insecure boot img before you flashed your first custom rom?

It's no different.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] kcasner:
Honestly can't recall. I follow; we're on the same page, different lingo.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] craigau:
kcasner, I had exactly same issue as you. Could you explain a bit detail on how you get it fixed?

I want to flash DH5.1. Are these correct steps I should following:

1) open DH5.1 zip file, find the boot.img (I found there're two boot.img, stock/boot.img and elite/boot.img, I guess I should use later one)

2) fastboot flash the boot.img

3) boot into recovery to flash DH5.1

4) reboot

Thanks for help!

I have a Titan (PPC6800) with WM6. I just noticed the notes in the contacts are truncated with this message:

[Text truncated on device. Modification of these items on the device will overwrite full text on desktop.]

The text was cutoff afteer about 6Kb notes.

This wasn't happening on my older Smartphone Audiovox SMT5600 Anyone experince this? Is it the new ActiveSync or WM6 orVista? Any Idea how to fix this?
[General Topics] Tref:
6Kb? A note or a novel? ;o)

edit: OK to be helpful, if you create a link in your Contact notes to a document such as a word doc, a note, or a spreadsheet, like this example you might be able to avoid long notes, and truncation

file://\Storage%20Card\someDirectory\someFile.doc

This will be converted to a hyperlink if you add a space after the end of your document's name, and when clicked on will open PIE, then the corresponding application for you, and the document containing your notes. I've done some experimentation and it has to be entered in exactly the way I have shown in order to work, even though it is a mix of forward slashes and backslashes
[General Topics] justin0679@gmail.com:
contact notes truncated

Hello HTC mobile pc users...

Good news...

I use contact notes everyday. if you edit a contact note that has been truncated on your device (mines HTC TyTn that I got from Vodafone which now runs wm6satin...) you will loose the full notes on your pc... a real bloody nuisance... not to mention having to use Phatnotes which isn't great cause you have to sync it to your outlook on the pc to get your updated notes on your device...

Halleluiah!!! I have found an easy way to resolve the problem... it will apparently work on wm5 and I know it works on my wm6satin HTC TyTn...

Basically ActiveSync will only allow the pocket pc to accept 5k of data - most annoying... the below procedure will allow you to allocate as much memory to the contact notes on your pocket pc as you need... obviously if your equipment melts I cannot be held responsible - the procedure works for me on my device and I have a lot of text in my contact notes...

Download free PHM RegEdit (find it on Google)...

HKEY Current User

\software

\Microsoft

\ActiveSync

\Body truncation = 20480 decimal

When you first open this line the decimal reading will be 5120... I multiplied this number x4 which = 20480 which gives me plenty of contact note space and has not reduced my device memory by any noticeable amount... you can find out what you need but as a rough guide 15k = 400 lines of contact note text and you are still left with 25% still available if you opt for 20480 decimal (20K)...

I think it is better to hard reset the device... install the PHM RegEdit from the cab file you copied to your microcard... then sync using ActiveSync... and hey presto... all your notes are on your HTC...

I have noticed on the HKEY_CURRENT_USER and the HKEY LOCAL MACHINE I get the line "RegPersisted 1 (0X000001)" At the time of writing this does not affect the phone in any way. If someone knows what this means they might contribute... Thanks...

Jay

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] varunmagical:
I would really be grateful if somebody solves below puzzle for me :

1. I have 2 tablets ( Digiflip Pro Et 701) which is very uncommon model ( Local manufacturer - No custom ROM/stuff available and no Warranty).

2. I upgraded both to KitKat after which one is functioning well while Other has stopped charging when it is on ( Plugged in, not charging ). I am sure this is a firmware issue as many other users are also facing it. I have to switch it off in order to charge it.

3. Last night, luckily I found a guide to root them and it worked - Both of them are now rooted.

4. I am thinking ( Please correct me if I am wrong ) that if I backup ROM/Kernel on the functioning one and restore it one the dysfunctional one, the issue would resolve itself. However, there is no CWM/TWRP available to do this ( I have installed BusyBox on both successfully - Not sure if that helps ) Please also let me know if I need to migrate both ROM and Kernel or just Kernel will do?

5. I am a beginner - can you please guide me? I am really hoping some of you experts will look at this thread :)

Thanks in advance - Apologies if my post is not relevant here - Mods, please have a mercy on me :p

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dylansmith:
I haven't been able to find a way to root my G920i on 5.1.1. without tripping KNOX yet, and hence resorted to alternative methods like using ABP to block ads. However, the performance is really poor on 2 fronts:

1. Doesn't block all ads and leaves the placeholder on the webpage

2. Battery Drain - around 10% for every 3h of standby. Without it, I can standby the entire night and only lose 1%.

Is there any better solution out there? I am trying to avoid VPN based solutions as it is ultra slow by having to route through the VPN again.

Thanks.!
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Noxxxious:
I don't know if you can use pingpongroot to root your device. If not maybe engineering bootloader 5.0.2 is an option? With this last bootloader you can even flash custom kernels without tripping knox. I know it works for 920/925 F, not sure about the 920i.. Look around i'd say
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popthosegaskets:
PingPongRoot doesn't work on 5.1.1 ROMs. The engineering bootloader has been leaked for G92xF/T variants only, not for the G92xI variant.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dylansmith:
yup, understand that it doesn't work, so I'm looking around to see if there's any better ad-blocking solution?

It's odd that ABP does not block in-app ads even though it claims to do so?

Also, I compared Firefox's ABP to the standalone ABP, and it seems that the browser implementation is much more effective (i.e. it removes all placeholders), but the issue is that pages don't load as fast on FF as compared to Chrome.

Any other superior alternatives?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popthosegaskets:
As far as I know the more superior alternatives always require root. Without root you're not going to go very far with blocking ads.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dylansmith:
i see. i read on the pingpong root thread that the exploit has been closed and it would not be possible to root without tripping knox on 5.1.1 and beyond for g920i. is it true (am i doomed)? :(
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popthosegaskets:
Unfortunately... Yes. For now there is no way to root without tripping Knox.

So here is what I am stuck:

I have a SM-G9208 international edition. I have been working around and finally managed to get TWRP flashed using ODIN and boot into recovery. the problem is that the touch screen does not work for some reason.

So I am looking for a recovery that does not require touch screen. I was hoping to find a recovery that I can flash through ODIN and only uses physical buttons. Does any know where I can find such a thing?
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Monnq:
Hey mate. I was searching for Philz for some time - go for it http://arter97.com/browse/exynos7420/kernel/4.3/. This guy has it for probably all models. And buttons are apparently working.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
On the other hand you flashed the correct TWRP?
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devbro:
How many versions of TWRP exists? I only found one version on the official website:

https://dl.twrp.me/zeroflte/

the last file (twrp-2.8.7.1-zeroflte.img.tar) is the one that actually successfully boots into recovery but after that no-touch problem exists. the rest do not work.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devbro:
I never thought of that. Does TWRP support mouse out of the box or special build of TWRP is needed?
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devbro:
It indeed worked. now I can actually do things in TWRP using USB OTG mouse. But there is a new problem: once I use mouse in TWRP, the phone gets stuck in a boot loop after I exit TWRP :( The only fix is to flash the full image using ODIN :(
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devbro:
For whoever that may come across this:

TWRP does allow you to work through adb command shell. boot into recovery, attach to your laptop and do:

adb devices

once you get a response do:

adb shell

and then you can do all kind of stuff like:

twrp install filename

twrp backup

twrp restore
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RedRibbonArmy:
I have the same problem but instead like a dumb ass I installed twrp twice and it messed up my screen each time I touch to the right it touches to the left and left is right. So does anybody have a costum recovery or a stock recovery for SM-G920T1 or SM-G920T

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quickdry21:
My last phone (Nexus 4) was stolen. My new device, the Nexus 6, as you all know comes with enhanced security measures, requiring authentication even after a factory reset. Now, I had grown accustomed to playing around with wiping, rooting, custom roms, kernels, radios, etc with my Nexus 4. Now that I have had my Nexus 6 for a bunch of months, I am starting to think about rooting my device (so I can install an SSH server and have my phone automatically open a tunnel back to my server). My only hesitation is turning the OEM unlocking switch to on. See, I am a big fan of the new security measures that require authentication after a device reset, and would much prefer to keep that feature enabled. I've searched around on Google and XDA, and I haven't been able to find any definitive answers on how unlocking the bootloader in order to root the device will affect these security mechanisms.

My understanding is this: in order to root the Nexus 6, you need to enable OEM unlocking, which allows flashing pretty much any image onto the phone. If any image can be flashed to the phone, this security mechanism can be circumvented.

Two questions:

1. (pretty sure the answer to this is no) Can I root my phone and prevent flashing of images that would circumvent the security feature

2. Will rooting my phone make it easier for an unknown party to gain access to the device via another route
