[P3300, MDA Compact III General] ronnysaad:
Hello everyone, :D

I am new to this forum. I would be very interested to become a fluent member of it as it is a very efficient website for info & upgrades for all HTC Phones and some of you guys seem to be doing great work over here.

After so much research, I bought the HTC P3300 (Artemis). It seemed like the best phone to fit my needs for a long period of time. I received the box last night. I am very pleased with everything (physical weight and dimensions, battery life, awesome features, FM Radio etc...) but there is one thing I want to make sure of :

The roller is great for browsing but I feel like it does not have a stable position. I can actually move it a little bit with my fingers I feel like it is just not well fixated/mounted. In my opinion this decreases the value of the phone in terms of physical smoothness especially that the roller is an essential feature of the phone.

Does anyone else have this "issue" or is this case most likely a manufacturing error from HTC ? :confused:

Waiting for your help.

Ronny from Lebanon :)
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] spangelsaregreat:
Hi,

They are all like that. It is a bit a bit slack but so is the dial but they both work okay. Personally I think a slightly tighter fit would have been better and the dial shoul be made of something that is not quite as smooth as the current one.

I wanted to install a custom Rom on my Nexus 5 running Android 6.0 so I downloaded TWRP latest and unlocked the Bootloader and installed TWRP.

Now the OS doesn't boot up anymore and the TWRP starts but gets rebooted all the time, and TWRP does not seem to be able to mount anything. When it reboots it looks like it automatically goes to the TWRP where it says it is running OpenRecoveryScript but it is unable to mount anything. I tried a boot start to Recovery and it worked but when I tried a factory reset it says the same thing.

I'm worried my phone will die and have further issues, I need help as soon as possible.

Power +volume down. Connect the phone to the computer and try this

fastboot erase cache

fastboot reboot

Done. [emoji6]
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarTro'15:
THANK YOU!!!!

Its now just in an infinite boot animation.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stevica Smederevac:
I know. Same happened to me. Next step is to download the rom, gapps and use usb otg and flash that in recovery.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarTro'15:
I cant make it to anywhere else, its just boot animation.

Nvm, got it
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stevica Smederevac:
Volume down +power button then enter twrp, mount usb otg and flash
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarTro'15:
I get a message that says "Factory Reset Complete... Failed".

Is there a solution to this?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stevica Smederevac:
What factory reset? You should wipe everything except internal storage
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Was the reset done from recovery mode or when the ROM had been booted to the desktop?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stevica Smederevac:
From recovery
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
In fastboot mode, try this: fastboot erase userdata, fastboot erase cache, and reboot the phone.

No way, my hammerhead only reboots 4ever

1 Year later I face the same trouble : My Nexus 5 Hammerhead looks like bricked after twrp 3.0.2 flash :(

No way to stop the infinite boot loop, quickly the recovery mode, fast boot and Google logo flash before my eyes without giving me any chance to reflash or do absolute nothing !

buaaaahhh ahhhhh .... And I renewed 2 weeks ago with a brand new battery and flex cable buaaaaaa
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Could the rebooting be due to a bad power button?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] urbina:
It could be, indeed that was my first thought as time ago it used to happen. But I've been trying as a maniac the not less maniac solution of hitting it softly and spasmodically as it turns on, but no success. Such solution it used to work, now it does not. :(

Currently, desperation makes me think of desperate (probably fool) solutions like unplug the battery to see if that so called "cache" wipes :confused: My lovely hammerhead currently open .....but does not look better

---------- Post added at 04:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:15 AM ----------

Ok, it looks like a f******* and annoying incredible coincidence, right after the flash, the power button arises !! BUT my last test looks like that's the problem :: While rebooting forever, I just keep the VolumeDOWN button pressed and it tries to enter the fast boot menu, as it the power certainly already pressed.

Now that I have the hammerhead open, I'll google to seek how to consistently fix that annoying problem.

Thanks a lot for your answer. I managed my self thru it yesterday, using mainly these 2 YouTube videos

(Sorry for the partial link; not allowed to post external urls)

Which basically explain about opening the Nexus 5 Hammerhead, get right to the damn sticky power button, clean it right and manipulate it a little bit with a lady tweezers in order to "unstick" it.

I've already mange thru these nearly 3 years to keep my great hammerhead alive ! Replacing its flex cable, battery, now manipulating the sticky button ....I do not know how much life is left for it but GOD SAVE THE HAMMERHEAD ! :D:D:D

Thanks to you all
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] GamingDevilsCC:
So currently i hate stock due to the battery life on 4.4.2 and was wondering what custom roms are available for an i747m d2can that has good battery life, stable, and same/better speed/performance than stock.

ps, if there isnt a d2can version. What is compatible with d2can. also, what custom recovery would you prefer (clockworkmod, twrp etc.)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jason2678:
All the CM/AOSP roms feel like an upgrade from stock on this phone. Slim, OctOs, and CM were my favorites. If you want stable stick to the lollipop roms. They're still smoothing out the rough spots on marshmallow.

d2att roms work fine on d2can.

Use TWRP for recovery, the others aren't actively being developed any longer. If for some reason TWRP doesn't work for you (happens to a few people) then try Philz (CWM based).
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] GamingDevilsCC:
Do d2lte roms work fine on a d2can (people say d2lte covers the north in one umbrella) and is it true that u need to edit some files in android from d2can to d2att so a rom can be able to install and not fail?

What is AOSP anyways?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jason2678:
D2lte is fine too. Merged builds came and went so fast I almost forgot.

I've heard some people mention editing asserts to get d2att roms to flash on an i747m. I've heard others say they use d2att twrp on d2can so they don't have to mess with that. I had an i747 so I can't exactly vouch for either. I do know d2att and d2can are interchangeable.

Just make sure to stay away from i9300 stuff; that s3 is a totally different phone.

Oh and aosp = android open source project. Android straight from Google like on a nexus. I think slim and broken are the only roms for d2att using an aosp base. Everything else I can think of uses cm.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mayday_jay:
I'm on d2can i747m (Rogers is my carrier) and d2att ROMS work just fine. If you are already on up to date stock via carrier OTA, you'll want to grab ODIN and the proper USB drivers and then search for instructions on the root process for your phone (instructions which include replacing recovery w/ a recent version of TWRP would be ideal).

A few words of advice:

- run a TWRP nandroid backup before you attempt any ROMs

- only flash ROMS labelled to work with d2can/d2att hardware, i747m/i747, or unified d2lte. Follow the ROM maintainers instructions regarding installation and updates.

- Do not attempt to install any ROMs which are not clearly labeled or any ROMS that you are unsure of as it will most likely end up in trouble.

- avoid blindly flashing new bootloaders / modem unless you have a very good reason to. If that reason should arise, please make sure you have a good read through some of the threads regarding this topic. Not following the proper procedures will most definitely result in bricking your device.

Follow the above and you will have a great time enjoying your phone all over again! Keep hanging around these parts and reading and you'll gain a lot of knowledge and you'll be comfortable with the process in no time!

I'm currently running the latest OctOS weekly M release and it has been pretty darn rock solid for me.

Cheers!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] GamingDevilsCC:
Would using d2att instead of using d2lte be better?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jason2678:
No different. d2lte was a brief experiment to try not having carrier specific builds. It replaced d2att for a while on KitKat. Merged builds were abandoned as of cm 12, so it must have been more trouble than it was worth.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] GamingDevilsCC:
After doing some googling, I cant seem to find which specific things in build.prop to change from d2can to d2att. 2 out of the 3 I saw ONLY say d2can and those are ro.build.product and ro.product.device. the other 1 that says more than just d2can is ro.build.fingerprint. im not sure if i need to change all 3 of the ones i saw or just the 2 that only say d2can and not anything else.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jason2678:
I could be wrong but I don't think you need to mess with build.prop. I think as long as you can get twrp to flash a d2att roms you'll be OK.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] GamingDevilsCC:
so i could get a twrp d2att and flash d2att roms into my d2can?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jason2678:
That is what I understand
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] GamingDevilsCC:
Thank you!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] GamingDevilsCC:
do u think octos has a better battery life than stock?

and if u mess up when flashing a boot loader for some reason, will u still be able to access recovery mode/twrp and restore to that nandroid backup?

also is it okay that i just install an d2att twrp instead of actually changing my build.prop from d2can to d2att?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] GamingDevilsCC:
Is it possible u could send me a link on where it said that? i just want to make sure i can use my d2att twrp i installed for installing d2att roms since i dont want my device do get bricked since i have no intention of buying a new device.

also, when i make a nandroid backup and then i screw up when flashing a rom. would i still be able to access twrp and restore to the nandroid backup?

NVM, U CAN. proof: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2624413
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jason2678:
Search the twrp thread. You'll find plenty of people who say they're running d2att twrp on i747m. If you're unsure just install d2can twrp. The main reason i747m owners flash d2att twrp is so they don't have to mess with update scripts in roms.

But I just checked oct-os for example and its updater script will flash on d2att, d2lte, d2can, or d2tmo, so it doesn't matter if you have a d2can or d2att recovery.

D2att and d2can roms and recovery are interchangeable. Just never mix bootloaders and modems or flash roms for another phone. And never try to downgrade a bootloader on this phone.

Even if you mess up your system flashing a rom, recovery and download mode are still available as long as the ROM is made for your phone. Typically the worst thing that happens is a boot loop, or wifi or phone functions just won't work. Stay away from i9300 roms or roms made for other phones. Flashing those can hard brick this phone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] GamingDevilsCC:
i was just looking at oct os lolipop but cant find any d2lte, just d2att. could u link me to one if possible?

also, what does downgrading a bootloader mean?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jason2678:
You'll only find d2att oct-os but it's update script will let it flash fine on d2can or d2tmo too.

As a general rule leave bootloaders and modems alone. If it's working don't mess with it, but if you find you're out of date and a ROM won't work right you can download i747m full firmware packages from sammobile.com. if you do always go forward never go backwards. You'll hard brick if you try to roll back to an older boot loader, and it is hard to recover from.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] GamingDevilsCC:
so to downgrade back from the lolipop octos rom to stock kitkat without messing up my modems or bootloaders, i can eighter go to sammobile or use the nandroid backup?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jason2678:
You can flash whatever roms you want KitKat lollipop or marshmallow. ROM zips won't have bootloaders or modems. Same thing with nandroid backups. Just be careful with Odin and full firmware packages. Never go backwards.

Search and read if you're not sure.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] GamingDevilsCC:
sorry for my idiotic self but what gapps should i pick out of this list on

https://www.teamoctos.com/supported-devices/google-apps-gapps/

or

http://opengapps.org/
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jason2678:
Get arm, not arm64. If you install octos L use 5.1.1 gapps. If you install octos M use 6.0 gapps.

You can choose whatever variant you want. I usually use a small one like micro or pico and install anything else I need from the play store. Or aroma let's you pick and choose what you want during installation.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] GamingDevilsCC:
here is a shortened, undetailed summary of how to flash roms. (thank you to jason2678 for helping me flash my first ROM)

If your running a 1747M d2can, make sure u install the d2att version of TWRP (if ur running an i747 d2att, im not sure why you would get a d2can version of TWRP). also for GApps, I got them from opengapps.org , make sure u get the ARM + android version ur running, not ARM64, and when i flashed my rom, i used a method provided in this video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ix7rrKS4keI
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MhikeiMPC12:
Uhh, I know how to flash custom roms already, thanks anyway. It's just that the website lied and told me the rom was for i747m, when it was actually for i9300. I flashed a whole bunch of roms in the past. Btw cm12 is the most stable, but it kills battery. Stay away! Hyperdrive is decent, has a mini install wizard when you install, and it's based off 4.3 or 4.1.2 i dont know which one but it's really good for stability, and battery.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] GamingDevilsCC:
atleast cm12 (what octos L is based on) has better battery than stock XD!

Try not to resurrect dead threads please, and create a new thread instead. To answer your question, yes, you can try another carrier's ROM, but there might be some incompatibility here and there.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
D2TMO ROMs should work as long as you don't get any updater script errors. To get around the errors, make sure the phone has the latest recovery and edit the updater script if necessary.
