[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkovercast:
Hello. I'm new here and this is I think the most relevant place I could find to post this here at. Xda.

I have a Verizon HTC one max on 4.4.2

I want to achieve s-off so I can root and flash twrp or cwm.

Problem is I have looked at literally hundreds of guides and have had no success.

Most were using rum runner. I tried various versions even some not from rum runner and none work. They all have various errors. Never really the same one so I couldn't figure out exactly what my issue is. I know it always fails that's it.

Even was lucky enough to find a version of Firewater and even it failed.

I am totally lost...is there something I'm missing? Iv tried countless how-to's and none worked. I even tried flashing a custom recovery first.

This is my first android so I am new to the scene but not your average brain dead person. I'd really appreciate any advice. Any.

I believe the last rum runner error I received was phone no su or fu

I did have super user installed. Tried different ones. I have successfully temporarily rooted the phone. But I really need a permanent one to do the things I want to do such as custom roms and such.

HTC dev portal does not work for my phone. Says key is incorrect length. Tried everything. I was told it's supposed to not work on Verizon models.

HTC One max forum here: http://xdaforums.com/htc-one-max

Afaik, The Verizon HTC One max can easily be s-off'ed using Sunshine S-OFF or using a jtag setup if you know someone that have one.

Firewater is disconnected and will not work even if you find the file somewhere. It need online ressources that aren't available anymore.

How are you supposed to flash a custom recovery on a locked bootloader...?

Exactly, Verizon phones can't be unlocked using htcdev.com, thats why you must achieve S-OFF.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fastjohnson:
I feel your struggles. I'm not having any luck either. Htcdev dosent work, the toolboxes arent doing it either from supermax, rumrunner, squibbies, ive tried everything. Sunshine wants 25$ to do it but I have a hard time dropping coin on something I should be able to do myself for free and I'm certainly not using kingroot. I'm only running 4.2 os but 6.0 on htc. Any suggestions out there would be great.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] cadcamaro:
I think if you use a certain OTG adapter it has a little lip that doesn't fit in the S7. I found that out when I tried using a hub that was able to work fine with an S5, but it would not plug into the S7. Yet a cable I made worked completely fine since it was able to plug into the S7 with no issues.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbroer91884:
Quick question:

I am very used to flashing so this isn't new to me. I recently updated to android build MHC19I. I'm use to the "lock your bootloader" warning, but now that I'm on TWRP 3.0.0-1, I'm also receiving the "your device is corrupt" warning. Now this doesn't seem to affect day to day use, so I don't seem to care, but am I doing something wrong? I usually wouldn't receive that message.

Thanks!
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
Have you flashed SuperSU since flashing this version of TWRP? I haven't been able to pinpoint the cause of this message, but I believe it occurs when you have a modified /system partition (from installing TWRP). If I recall correctly (I had it a while ago) flashing SuperSU seemed to get rid of it. Could be a coincidence but that was my experience.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbroer91884:
Here is the crazy thing.

So I hadn't flashed anything but TWRP, didn't modify the system partition at all, and that message would come up. I then flashed the latest Pure Nexus (actually then removed Root) and the message is now back to just the relock the bootloader message. I checked what build was used in that rom, and it is some crazy build (MHC19J) which isn't even available on the the Android Factory Images site. So I don't really know. As of now though, I'm just back to the normal lock your bootloader message.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
TWRP itself modifies the system partition in order to persist through reboots, I believe this is what causes the message to appear.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goahans:
I think the Warnung is only red then the vendor image with the cert.check goes wrong the mhc19j is the last march build from the nexus5x and the devs changed the Rom for the angler- so try to flash the vendor image Märchen from Angler the mhc19i and the Rom certificate check goes right and the yellow Warnung is back.....i had for a few days the same Problem.... Download the vendor in the Rom thread and flsh it with wugs toolkit and then reboot.... Sry for my terrible english

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeprius:
You didn't say if you had a custom ROM or not, but regardless, whatever ROM you are running, do a clean flash or re-format the phone and re-install new software.

I've been reading a lot about scratched screens right out of the box, and seeing that the screen scratches very easily just laying it on the table.

Now I've only been following this on the s7e forums do don't know about the regular s7, but I'd this a quality control issue? I've ashtrays been under the impression that gorilla glass was supposed to be highly scratch resistant and harder to crack.

After having cracked my screen after a short drop 24 hours into having the phone, and the only phone screen to have broken of the myriad galaxy, lg and iPhones I've owned, I'm wondering if there was a failure I the quality control of the screens produced for the first batches of s7's.

It may have been my issue, but cyanogen had issues with the sim card not being detected, and ZyxxOS completely corrupted my phone. You would have better luck rooting and uninstalling bloat, but the other official D6603 firmwares shouldn't break your phone irreparably, but I don't think any of them work.

Sometimes 'No service'. It's like weak and swing signal. So I miss important calls. :(

Which radio rom version can do the best for phone signal? I've tried all version

the best radio rom is 1.46. The best can do only 1-2 bar but still swing signal.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Starfury:
They can adjust the power of the transceiver but its a balance between signal strength and battery life. The same can be done with the WIFI signal strength.

On another note there is a new radio stack 1.54 thats just been released and you should be able to find link to it here. A number of people reporting better signal levels with this new one...

Theres also the option to plug in a external GSM antenna into the back of the phone this would likely increase your signal strength.

No your phone cannot fit in the VR while in a case. Don't worry it will not scuff. If scuffing was an issue you would be hearing about from more than one user.

How to flash the firmware (5 files in archive) to your s7edge?

AP, CP & BL I understand, but the 2 CSC-files...?

CSC -> there's a PIT inside and will wipe your device

HOME_CSC -> the data should stay on your device

Today I tried to update with HOME_CSC, everything was OK, but at the end Odin 3.10.7 FROZE at "meta-data" (this folder is in the HOME_CSC file): nothing happened anymore and I had to pull the cable

Smart Switch didn't recognize my S7edge anymore for the "Emergency Firmware Repair"!

Luckely, Odin did recognize my device and could install the firmware with the "normal" CSC-file and afterwards my device was reset... :(

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] VVV850:
Flashing with CSC and not home_CSC will also reset your CSC.

Eg: I was on VODAFONE Romania and flashed stock unbranded using CSC. The result was I lost my ROM (from Romania) CSC, and defaulted to XEO from the multi CSC.

In this situation you cannot go back to your original CSC even after flashing using Smart Switch.

Rooting is the only option then and that will trip Knox.
