Is there way to downgrade my system to Lollipop from Marshmallow if I installed it through OTA? I am too tired of this bugs. Even after few hard resets there are lags in any browser except Google Chrome Beta, 3D games are very laggy with a strong sound breaking up (for example Grim Fandango and Game of Thrones imposssible to play) and I have a problem with Caller ID. I can't see names of people who stored in my contacts base with international phone number. Only regional. Lollipop worked as a charm. Thanks in advance.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AGISCI:
You can use this custom rom through a custom recovery:

It is stock lollipop. The only modification is that OTA is disabled.

Dear all,

I read the forum since some months now, and I thank you all for the awesome things I learned there, now I would like to know whether something I have in mind is achievable or not.

I own an Ubiquio 501, a very thin qwerty PDA (with touchscreen, wifi and all) which works very well. However:

-With the AKU 3.3 ROM (released around february) it suffered from very bad graphic/video performance, but everything else was working pretty well.

-With the last WM6 upgrade (released in august) the maker fixed the graphic issue, but for me the keyboard behavior is nothing but unacceptable. It seems like I am the only one having problems with the keyboard, however a downgrade (to AKU 3.3) fix the keyboard bit, so I guess the problem is not in the hardware.

What I would like to achieve is to put the keyboard drivers in the WM6 ROM, what do you think, is this feasible? I was able to unpack the ROMs with the kitchen tools, but am not sure of which module the actual keyboard driver is, the relevant files and dirs (find dump/ -iname "*key*") in the

AKU3.3 ROM :

./KeyBDState_service.dll
./KeyBDState_service.dll/KeyBDState_service.dll
./KeyIcon.dll
./KeyIcon.dll/KeyIcon.dll
./keypad.dll
./keypad.dll/keypad.dll
./keysifter.dll
./keysifter.dll/keysifter.dll
./devauthkey.dat

and in the WM6 ROM:

./KeyBDState_service.dll
./KeyBDState_service.dll/KeyBDState_service.dll
---> same file as in WM5 (md5sum match)
./KeyIcon.dll
./KeyIcon.dll/KeyIcon.dll
--> different
./keypad.dll
./keypad.dll/keypad.dll
-->different
./keysifter.dll
./keysifter.dll/keysifter.dll
--> different
./devauthkey.dat
-->same file as in WM5 (but I guess it doesn't have anything to do with the keyboard!

Should I look for other files? (I think so :)

Thank you all in advance!

Regards,

DAniele

I have had the 503g for a few weeks now and love it. If there is anything I can help you with please let me know.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gdaniele:
Hi maevro, thanks for joining :)

I just found (using a task manager) that stopping the "key sifter" service yields to a complete stop of the hardware keyboard (only things that keep working are the keyboard backlight and some "special" buttons: the comm-manager activator, the mode switcher (alpha, num), the shift key).

However, overwriting the keysifter.dll file with the wm5 version I was only able to reach a non-working state (the service does not start automatically and will refuse to start manually).

So, keysifter.dll is definitely (one) culprit, but additional testing may be needed to see its dependencies (I guess) in order to replace it with a (better) working version.

DAniele

Is the graphicproblem totally gone, so you can play games and watch movies without any problems?

Also, do you have any problems with network on this device?

Keep us updated if you find any solution to the keyboard-delay problem!

Thanks:)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gdaniele:
Well, I kind of sorted it out. The solution ain't optimal, but at last I can write my sms & mails as I was used to.

After many tries and file swap between wm5 and wm6 rom dump, I stopped the keyBDState service and... kaboom, everything worked as expected :) Yes, it was _that_ simple :)

Please note that there are still some issues (shift + arrow keys does not highlight) but I made this mod a few days ago and have noted no instability whatsoever.

The only thing that ceased to work after the mod is that I can no longer compose phone numbers from today screen (but in the phone app everything works, so I am not that disappointed).

If you want to try it by yourself, I can only advice for a prior full backup, and can take no responsibility for whatever damage may occur to your data, phone, sim card... blah blah blah ... :)

So long for my first post, although I really would like to investigate the thing a little bit further (and get highlighting back as it was in wm5).

To answer uggugg, I only tried a (mandatory :) ) Zoolander sample and it worked well (re-encoded to fit screen size, 20 fps, don't remember the bitrate, should check) as for the games... I really ain't into gaming (not on my phone, at least) so I'm sorry I couldn't tell you anything.

Hello everybody, I searched a bit in the various sections of the forum, but I didn't find anything special. I'm on Slimsaber with Android Marshmallow 6.0 and I need a kernel which supports MultiROM. Does this exist? I tried latest Boeffla for CM13 but I didn't find anything about MultiRom, and it doesn't work since the multirom menu doesn't show up at boot. Does anyone have an idea?

However this has left me wondering if rooting your phone with kingroot is like a soft root? similliar to a teathered jailbreak where if you restart the phone, you will lose the jailbreak and in this case you will lose the root. Is this true? Since i have done this i have rooted my phone again using kingroot and now i am nervous to restart my phone. Somebody please help lol :)

Before you root. Go setting and enabled developer option. You can do that by going to Settings>About>About Device Go to build number and tap on it 7 to like 9 times.. Then go to developer setting and check mark Oem UNLOCK. Then root and you wont get that error :)

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Daniel Craig:
Hey I'm starting you like your themes, you've done a great job, I have a little request; since you have a Xperia Z2 I'm sure you remember the Android 4.4.4. firmware. and you know how to do clocks, can you create a theme with that clock for Lollipop or Marshmallow, It's shame really how you have that clock as a widget but not on the lockscreen. Here have a screenshot if you don't know what I mean:

[IMG="Xperia Z3 Clock"]http://www.gizmobolt.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/Xperia-Z3-Android-Lollipop-LiveWallpaper.png[/IMG]

I Really love that theme and especially the clock if you'd be able to recreate it with theme for Marshmallow it will be awesome and I can experience the good old days on my Z5. Cheers mate.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] mpourfath@gmail.com:
Hi, first of all thank you for your attention! Yes i remember that, but unfortunately at this time it isn't possible to make digital clocks for Xperia lock screen… at the moment we can just create analog clocks and change color of other objects in lock screen…

I am new to this forum and have been reading for the last 4 hours but can't seem to zero in on which unit to purchase. I am installing this in my motorhome for navigation, radio, OBD Torque, and bluetooth. I don't need DVD and would like to avoid it possible.

I would obviously like the most powerful unit with the most memory. I was looking at the Newsy NR-3001 as it seems to have the most support. Is that correct?

If t's not what do you recommend? Which one has the best radio chip?

Welcome to the first constructive Lollipop vs Marhsmallow comparison!​

NOTICE: This is still WIP (Work in Progress) and I will keep updating the thread as soon as I finish an aspect of the comparison. Please do bare with me as I do not have the luxury of time unfortunately, but I am very determined to make that and show the world the true face of the M9 :)

Inspiration:​

I have always seen reviews of the HTC One M9 before I am honored to get such an awesome device in my hands, and they were a bit off, and in my opinion, a bit misleading too. Even

Anandtech

was a bit unfair towards the M9 when it was launched even though they are admitting that the M9 is one of the best implementations of the controversial Snapdragon 810 now. That put off some of the fire and hatred I had in my heart towards the misleading press reviews, but there has always been one thing that made me mad, comparing the major updates, where HTC really done a great job to say the least. From Android 5.0.2 to 5.1 was a revolution, and from Android 5.1 to Android 6.0 is a total revelation! So let's keep it to that and dig in the new sweet ;)

Let the fun begin.....
[One (M9) General] Mostafa Wael:
Performance & Synthetic Benchmarks​

After weeks of using Marshmallow on my HTC M9 (yes I am really happy! :cyclops: ), I guess I am in a place where I can surely tell about performance improvements I noticed. And I must say, it is freaking fast! The phone now handles every task you throw, UI is silky smooth with no stutters or hiccups. It is like, the phone is enjoying to play the animations in between the tasks. And even synthetic benchmarks reflect that. Let's start with the number one benchmark, GeekBench.

*GeekBench*

Lollipop (android 5.1)

Marshmallow (android 6.0)

So on the CPU side, there has been a noticeable improvement in both single core and multi core aspects, and real life scenarios emphasize that improvement as app loading times being faster, and some apps used to hang a while before opening up like DevCheck for instance, now they open instantly. And many other apps have seen faster loading times.

Even AnTuTu reports a remarkable improvement in the CPU part. Speaking of AnTuTu, it has seen a HUGE improvement as well.

*AnTuTu*

Lollipop (android 5.1)

Marshmallow (android 6.0)

As you can see here, every department has seen an improvement with different levels, with UX having the biggest part of the cake and as said before the CPU even seen an improvement. Even 3D has seen an improvement which is quite noticed in real-life scenarios. Moving on to the graphics department, it is very remarkable that the phone can sustain a better average fps than lollipop, where Gamebench came in handy and confirmed the better graphics performance.

Shortly I will be attaching the images of Gamebench session for the infamous Riptide GP2 thanks to [MENTION=4852979]gelo01[/MENTION] for providing the gamebench profiling screenshot of Lollipop! :)

*Riptide GP2 Gamebench*

Lollipop (Android 5.1)

Marshmallow (Android 6.0)

As you can see, even within a short period of gaming, the difference is really noticeable! And this is not a difference because the levels I played here is different than there or anything, both sessions are exactly on same game settings and same levels were played with same pace (I mean I was not taking a rest between the levels leaving the game on a menu screen or something :) :angel: )

More games to come to the gamebench hopefully, though I am not promising with that :D

[One (M9) General] Mostafa Wael:
Battery Life​

One of the most aspects that may break a deal is the battery life and for how much time your phone can stand after being fully charged. We had a lot of high hopes for the M9 to improve its battery life with Marshmallow update after hearing about Google's Doze implementation that should massively reduce standby/idle drain, and it did delivered make no mistake, however, battery life has been very inconsistent for me. With having some glorious days were I end up with 6 hrs SOT and still have some juice left, it was certainly an upbeat. But then came days with reaching merely 4 hrs SOT like on Lollipop, thanks to google play services and some bugged apps, and some may blame HTC's "service pack" to be the reason as well. So battery life is more of a mixed bag, but tends more to be battery friendly. Also I have to note that removing the Facebook couple did indeed make a noticeable boost in performance and battery life, even a research has confirmed that.

Also GSam was sometimes functioning well, and sometimes it was a bit off as well. But generally speaking, my M9 can now stand for a day and more without topping it up in between much more often than before, where it used to max out at 18-20 hours only.

No doubt Doze does quite a nice job with standby drain, where I barely lose 1% overnight with flight mode, even with WiFi connected and auto sync on! Which is quite impressive and miraculous when you compare it with the disastrous idle drain of Lollipop of course.

So yes standby drain has improved dramatically, but SOT? I am not sure about this, not yet :)
[One (M9) General] Mostafa Wael:
Real-life Experience​

Yes, after all these synthetic benchmarks and theoretical numbers, what matters the most after all is the real life experience. Those small little changes here and there pile up and form a considerable change, and that is what HTC focused on in the latest MM update. From switching between apps to just tapping the 3-dot button, animations has been added without slowing down the phone just to play the animations! The UI is much faster and smoother, and almost no frame drops at all , you get some google goodies and apps launch faster than before. Google Now on tap works pretty well in some scenarios, like in Chrome where you tap on a word and it gets its definitions with a flick from the bottom of the page, but you feel like it is a bit like an 'infant' that still needs to be more mature, just like when Google now first emerged in the old Jelly Bean days, by time it got better and better, until it became a necessity in a lot of people's life, including me.

But life is not that rosy unfortunately, there is inevitably some niggles. The Do Not Disturb (DND for short) won't be turned off automatically after the alarm anymore, and there is no option to set separate volume levels for ringtone and notifications. But to be quite honest, you are gaining much more than what you are losing, if you count it as losses even.

Other than that, there is nothing important to be mentioned. Maybe what's left is that the volume popup is now replaced by a stock-android one with some buttery smooth animations.

In my opinion, HTC walked the extra mile with the MM update :good:
[One (M9) General] Mostafa Wael:
Audio​

Yes, even the audio output has got a chunk of the sweet tart surprisingly. Now the audio output is much more refined with less static background noise and more punchy bass, a sensible bass boost has been added to the low frequencies (up to 40 Hz I reckon) to be precise, which results in a more enjoyable experience when the earphones, Headphones, Sub Woofer or even a whole speaker set are connected via the 3.5mm AUX jack (which some people gonna miss next year :p )

So that Club-mixes fanatics and pop music lovers can rejoice and enjoy their music even more. Mind you even in the lollipop days the HTC One M9 along with the previous HTC flagships were already in a league of their own :cowboy: something not everyone can manage to reach!

Sadly though, the integrated HTC profiles for the earphones are left untouched, so you will probably end up using the 'Other' profile, which is somehow a bummer. Speakers also were left untouched, but they did not need anything more. ;) Thankfully we have a great Sound mod like [Dragon-Fi] which fully utilizes the capabilities of the awesome device we have, and works quite well with Marshmallow as well, so the mod is quite MM ready already.

To sum it in a nutshell, the audio output has been always legendary across all HTC flagships, so there won't be a dramatic change, but rather some minimal yet noticeable changes to enhance it even more. Yeah I know, not all people pay such a great attention to the audio output details after all, they were already blown away with the audio from the start :cowboy:
