[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PC1staid:
Hi all.

I suspect this question has been asked before and I have found loads on how to do's, but I can't seem to achive what is needed, so any help, however small is greatly appriciated.... he goes.

Customer has brought in an HTC One M8. Details I can give from the Fastboot screen is:-=

***Software Status: Official***

***LOCKED***

M8_UL_CA PVT SHIP S-OFF

CID-111111111 (<---- 8X1'S)

HBOOT-3.10.0.0000

RADIO-1.29.214500021.12G

OpenDSP-V51.2.2-00593-M8974_FO.1015

OS-6.12.401.1

eMMC-boot 2048MB

Dec 17 2015,14:15:48.3

It is stuck in a boot loop that alsways shows the HTC boot screen, reboots to the HTC screen and promptly then to the Android recovery screen:-

Android Recovery

HTC/htc_m8/htc_m8

6.0/MRA58K/buildteam12171409

user/release-keys

Use volume up/down and power

Reboot system now

Reboot to bootloader

Apply update from ABD

Apply update from SD card

Wipe data/factory reset

Wipe cache partition

Power off

Sorry to have to type this in as I cant seam to get images to upload.

Now, this seems to be a common problem and most suggestions are re flash the firmware using RUU. The first stumbling block I am hitting is the phone is not being detected on any PC that I use, by any cable I use, either by Windows ( USB detected sound plays and disconnected plays if I unplug but no detection in device manager, I have loaded the HTC ABD drivers, installed HTC manager and Android studio but again no detection) or on a Mac.

Question is, can I reset this phone back to a working state or should I direct the customer back to a HTC service centre?

BTW the phone phone is a European model and currently on 3.

Thanks in advance.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Try another USB cable, and another port on the PC.

Also, go into bootloader, select fastboot (if not highlighted in red already) using vol keys, and confirm with power button. Then see if the phone's serial number is returned with the command: fastboot devices

Its not the Euro version. Its US version, hacked to accept Euro software. Due to this, and SuperCID (11111111) its obviously been modified, and HTC won't honor any warranty (if that is what you are asking).

I also wouldn't be surprised if the back cover was replaced (again, voiding the warranty). What does the model number on the back say?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PC1staid:
Shown on the back is OP6B110 M8x

Hope this gives some more helpfull info.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Now that you mention that, I think there may be an Australian variant (OP6B110) which also has the product ID (M8_UL_CA) indicated on the bootloader screen.

Either way, its not the Euro variant; and its been modified by a previous owner (as mentioned).

Any luck getting USB fastboot working? Once you do, do fastboot getvar all, and post the output (delete IMEI and serial number before posting) so we can verify the MID and make sure you are running the right RUU.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sonalgirdhar:
exactly the same problem

Hi.. I have also been facing the same problem since today morning. phone completely conked off and not connecting to pc either. the connecting and disconnecting sound is there but device driver error so not installed. pls help... phone model is OP6B100. Bought from US and being used in India
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
No, its

not

the same problem. The OP is in a bootloop, which is very different from the screen not coming on.

Folks need to

stop

saying "same problem", because it really never never never is. Just a minor detail or 2 that is different, makes a huge impact on the condition and the way forward.

Leave the phone on charger for several hours, and then hold power for 30 seconds of so, and see if you can get the screen to come on.

If the screen doesn't come on, there isn't much we can do.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sonalgirdhar:
Sorry I meant I am also getting the same screen with phone stuck in bootloop amd not moving beyond this screen.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
"completely conked off" (your previous words) is not a good description of the above. Misleading, really.

Hold the vol down button during the bootloop cycle. Don't let go until you are on the bootloader screen. Then try to connect with fastboot.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tushard007:
My HTC is having same error after Android 6.0 update.

It's not getting connected to pc.. I bought my phone in USA and now using it in UK.

Called HTC and they said they will not accept US phone for repair even though it's in warranty.. :(
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sonalgirdhar:
Hi.. Did u find any solution to the problem. The service center here also refused to take a phone bought outside india.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sonalgirdhar:
Hi..

Please find attached the result of 'fastboot getvar all'. i had also shared the same with HTCDev team and the reply is as below:

"Hello Sonal

I sincerely thank you for sending us the information that was requested . According to the information you have provided, I was able to identify the reason why the device can not receive updates at this time. For your device to without any problem , it must have all the original software or settings and STOCK.

To begin , let me explain how our devices are distributed to security S -ON to protect your settings and to ensure proper operation. Security on your device has been disabled ( S -OFF) which has allowed the following parameters change at this time prevent the upgrade is installed

cidnum : 11111111 < ---- this parameter will not get your device updates

Here are the options for you:

Option 1 - Return all device settings to their original settings or STOCK. - First you must change the parameters specified as these were originally. Once this is done, now again to contact STOCK install the operating system.At this time, HTC doesn't officially support obtaining S-Off on our devices. Having said that, I'll be happy to take a look at what's going on and at least point you in the right direction. I know this may cause some limitations in the assistance I am able to provide to you but I am more than happy to do what I can to assist you through your issue . We are happy if you contact us about any problems you might, in any part of their development process. .To begin with, the following websites are some examples where we recommend you start your research on S-Off. http://forums.xda-developers.com http://www.androidcommunity.com http://androidforums.com Please note the above web sites are not operated by HTC. We can not validate or guarantee the information contained therein.

Do not hesitate to reach out to us if you have any questions. You can contact us back via email, using the second link listed below (The one at the end of the sentence "To send a reply to this message, please click here"). "

Can you please help with the next steps to get the phone working again.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Flash the 6.12.401.4 RUU.

See the download in Post #3 of the following thread, and instruction in Post #17 of that thread: http://xdaforums.com/htc-one-m8/general/marshmallow-6-0-update-htc-m8-european-t3296141

Asking HTC for support by sharing info that indicates your phone was modded, was a bad idea. Of course they are going to say "we don't support this" and "return the phone to stock".

No need to go back s-on or change CID. Just run the RUU as I mentioned.

---------- Post added at 10:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:04 AM ----------

USB connection issues are usually due to issues on the PC, not the phone.

Try a different cable, different USB port (as I suggested in a previous post). Install (or re-install) HTC Sync. You may even need to try a different PC (Win7 and USB 2.0 get the best results).

Also, bear in mind that phone needs to be in bootloader-fastboot mode, for fastboot commands to work. Booted into OS or recovery for adb to work.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] calouro:
I just came across this tweak on this website:

http://www.pocketpctweaks.com/pocketpc_tweaks/Minimize_tapping_Pressure

I tried it and it works great. I now use less pressure on the screen.

What ever you do, don’t set the value below the default of 7526. If you do, you may set it too low, the sensitivity will be too low and you will have to perform a Hard reset.

Here is the tweak from the website listed above:

Minimize Pressure when Tapping the screen

Ever got used to tapping without screen protectors and suddenly you put some screen protector and have a pecuilar feeling (some-what like tapping harder than u normally do) due to the increase thickness of the protector?

Well i have gone to that and finally ive done some simple tweaks to my xda mini.

I also figure out this could lessen normal wear and tear(scratching of protectors/PDA screens) since lesser pressure is applied to Tap the screen

here's what i did..

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Drivers\Touch

If not there try here:

HKLM\Drivers\Touchpanel\ Pressure Threshold

or find 'Threshold'

Change the value of Pressure Threshold.(INCREASE value ONLY!!!)

what i did is set the value at 11880.

i tried doubling the default value. until i have reached my desired setting.

now,its like tapping soflty without having a feeling that i have screen protector. Also less stress on the stylus and screen and faster tapping.:-)

WARNING: Only INCREASE THE VALUE BUT NEVER THE DECREASE THE DEFAULT VALUE.

Lowering the value of Pressure Threshold means you need to apply more pressure in tapping than you normally do.

ive tried this and when i soft reset, the screen won't react even if i apply deep pressure in tapping so i needed to do a HARD Reset!!!

So don't ever think of lowering the value, JUST INCREASE but NEVER LOWER!!

Tweak open for comments.

thanks...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] spone1:
Thanks, this tweak worked wonderfully!

I dont use a screen protector (for now at least) and I noticed an improvement in sensitivity as well when I set it to 11880.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Avatar28:
I posted a thread about this before. Nobody answered but I finally found the answer on my own. What you have to do is to make sure you have a storage card and put a file called welcome.not in the root of it. There doesn't have to be anything in it, you can just open notepad and save the blank file with that name. That tells the device to skip the whole welcome bit with the touch screen calibration and all that.

I may not have the name exactly right, it's been several months. But if you do a search on threads started by me you can probably find it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] 13chris13:
i saw this in another link and they said to put it at 240, i listened and i had to hard reset. thank you for clearing things up buddy

hey, the link for the program is bad i was wondering if any one could post the a link for it i have looked everywhere. I have a prob. alighning screen and would like to see if changing the sensitivity will somehow help.

Use Schap's Advanced Configuration Tool. Saves you a ton of brainwork, since it's just doing the registry edits for you. Can also be used to tune your Bluetooth Stereo setup, and a host of "basic" UI modifications.

FAQ/Info

Due to several requests, here is some further information...

The below touch key and touch key lights disable information is still valid, however I've gotten this integrated into the ROM. The information has been left here for convenience and reference purposes:

DISABLE HARDWARE CAPACITIVE KEYS AND LIGHTS

Several have asked about this. I am working on an in-ROM setting for each, but for now you can do it manually if you like.

If you decide to try/use the following instructions, please understand that you do this entirely at your own risk

Some people like to use the NavBar soft keys (on-screen). If this is you, below you will find some commands you can use to disable the built-in Hardware Keys and Hardware Key Lights.

Using adb or a terminal emulator app (or the built-in one that you can install in your app drawer by enabling Settings > Developer Options > Local terminal), issue the commands under the option you want to apply.

For each item listed, copy/paste or type the commands, one line at a time, and EXACTLY as they are shown. Press ENTER after each command.

Open adb or the terminal emulator app and issue the following commands to start a shell with root access. Press ENTER after each command.

(Be sure to accept any Superuser root access propmpts you receive while doing this.)

adb shell
su root

Now issue one or a combination of the following:

To DISABLE Hardware Touch KEYS:

su -c 'echo 0 > /proc/touchpanel/keypad_enable'

To ENABLE Hardware Touch KEYS:

su -c 'echo 1 > /proc/touchpanel/keypad_enable'

To DISABLE Hardware Touch Key LIGHTS:

su -c 'echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/button-backlight/max_brightness'

To ENABLE Hardware Touch Key LIGHTS:

su -c 'echo 255 > /sys/class/leds/button-backlight/max_brightness'

Enjoy!

oh wow, looks nice. I keep coming back to AOSP based ROM's since they seem to give me the best performance and battery....going to be giving this a go....thanks for the work put in. will report back soon.

Edit: first boot has completed.

had no data upon boot (had cell) so had to go into APN settings and chose the correct APN (fast T-mobile) and change it to IPv4/IPV6 and it connected.

everything else seems to be good other than the fact that I cannot find a place to disable the hardware buttons (i prefer on screen)...did I miss this somewhere?

also, the Default lockscreen clock font is not the default Marshmallow font...its way too bold...and the options lack a "light" font that isn't itallic. I like the options to change this but there needs to be a true marshmallow Default, or at lest a "thin' or better yet, let us add a custom font.

ambient display doesn't seem to be working for me either.

Patience

This is an early beta go-round for me, so please be patient with feature requests. I'm supporting 3 other devices too.

Data - Yeah my AT&T APN works out of the box, but if you're on TMO or another carrier, the first thing to do is check APN , which you did. :)

HW Buttons - Need to look into this further.

Lock screen clock - C'mon look at the options before such reports please. Change it in Settings > Candy interface > Lock Screen > Lock screen clock font options... See the attachments.

Ambient display (Doze) - This may be tricky to track down. Logs would help. Have somone text you or whatnot and log it if Doze is not working. You can try going into Settings > Candy interface > Display and toggle Ambient display off/on or play with the settings there to see if it works? Log this activity too if you can.

Of what? Candy has layers and built-in dark mode. That's going to vary widely. See the attachments.

Yes indeed...

I was using Blackplayer music player. The music didn't start playing.

Then, I thought it might be a problem of my player.

Then, I tried to play it using solid explorer media player. Same problem occurred.

I'll provide the logs later. There was no error shown though.
[ONE Original Android Development] turdbogls:
no problem on the requests...understand completely.

as for the lock screen clock, it is st to "default" on boot....and its very Bold, much bolder than stock marshmallow font. I played with the font settings, went back to "default" and it was still too bold. are you seeing the correct font on the defualt setting?

as for "doze", I'll have to get back to you on this. I restored my Nandroid...i just can't live with the hardware buttons. If i have some extra time today I might be able to grab you a log file.

thanks for making this though...i am always on the lookout for AOSP based ROM's.

have you though of making a strict AOSP ROM without any of the add-ons? I know I would be interested in this.
[ONE Original Android Development] NoSpamDan:
I am able to play MP3 files from internal SD using my paid Winamp, but other apps like FX Media Player, Xenoamp, ES Media Player, etc. could not play a test file I tried. Will need to look into this. Not sure if this is codecs or permissions or what.

I believe I'm seeing the correct lock screen clock font as intended, bold-ish or not. Honestly this is low priority.

As far as HW buttons, I take it you mean disabling them when Navbar is in use? I agree this should be a Navbar option and I'm looking into it.

I'm on a team where a pure AOSP ROM base has been worked on. This ROM is built on the same base, just has some extra features. I'll look at a pure AOSP OPO ROM but I have a lot on my plate right now, and also have no clue how many people would actually be interested in a stripped down vanilla ROM.

[ONE Original Android Development] adinkwok:
A lot of OPs of the bacon forums share that frustration. Although personal judgement or a mindset cannot be taught, it doesn't hurt to try a search in Google (or even for features in the Settings app, AOSP added that search button there for a reason!).
