[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] furboom1240:
The whole RUU?

That's a larger download. At first I thought I needed a RUU but the zip I gave you will update everything else.

By using that less invasive uodate method, I was able to keep my CM11 installation until I finally updated to a stable CM12.1 installation.

HTC firmwares raise a threshold. You can flash any software you want at or below that threshold.

A RUU is a more foot dragging process. [MENTION=4987085]xunholyx[/MENTION] seems you might have a better handle on this. Any pointers? I'm maxed out on data and too much more and I'm slowed for five days until I renew my data plan.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] furboom1240:
The software I posted in that thread should do what you want. You don't need a RUU to update firmware.

I updated my M8 using the software provided by [MENTION=3537886]graffixnyc[/MENTION]. He was especially helpful in detailing the process which I have re-iterated.

Using the RUU as a whole would wipe your media board as well (/data/media)...and the process I put ahead on my device kept that data preserved.

Yes, a firmware package is easier and you don't lose data, but you can only flash a firmware zip if you are S-Off
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] furboom1240:
Actually, both ways. I relocked my phone to apply a firmware only update. And most importantly, I restored my OEM CID. Using SUPERCID would cause error 20 (FAILED).

But when I was done, I unlocked it again. I guess once an HTC sees the Sunshine, you can lock and unlock at Fastboot will.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] xunholyx:
Actually both ways what?

Once you have sunshine, you are s-off. Period. Relocking your phone doesn't turn you to S-On. And I'm telling you again, you don't need to relock your bootloader for anything unless you are S-On and running an RUU.

I'm going to say this in as nice a way as I can................

I've seen you give a lot of "help" that isn't helpful at all.

It's cool that you want to help, but you really need to learn a lot more to actually help. I've seen you give a quite a bit of bad information, but I haven't jumped in to correct you with most stuff because the bad info you gave wouldn't cause a brick.

Like I said, it's good that you want to help, and the people on XDA appreciate people who help, but don't rely on google searches to assist people asking for assistance.

If you KNOW the answer, then great, answer.

If you don't and are looking through google, don't bother. Someone who ACTUALLY KNOWS might answer.

Also (sorry to say), your lack of knowledge with the M8 (your device, correct?) is obvious. Take some more time to learn about your device and I'm sure that you will be a much more helpful member here.

You definately are showing the proper initiative.

---------- Post added at 08:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:09 PM ----------

What firmware zip did you try to flash that gave you that error (20)?

I would recommend you use the zips on this thread. You'll never get weird errors like that one.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] furboom1240:
Good point.

I think I'll take a break. And read up as it has been a while since I was hands on with this forum. I'm still getting used to Tapa talk.

Ciao.

In my phone right now there is no data. If it is possible to return to him the system, tell me how? I understand if you do not s-off it will only ruu? Or is there another way? Model HTC One E9s dual sim(a50aml)

There is still a question. Here at this link firmware for my phone? And is not the site easy-firmware.com fraud? I'm willing to pay for a subscription, but if it's worth it.

Would be great if you guys could set up a BUY / SELL section on here. Having these posts always within the forum topics is not really nice! (Even though I bought miy 4rd Hermes through that :D )

I saw it in other forums and it really seems to be a good way of handling this BUY / SELL stuff.
[About XDA developers] The Owl:
I agree it would be a handy section / forum if it was made part of this section would seem the most logical
[About XDA developers] duke_stix:
only problem i can see with having a trading forum (and dont get me wrong, i would LOVE to have a trade forum on here) is that because there are SO many people on here, it just increases the chances of someone getting scammed or using it as an opportunity to get scammed!

i dont see why there couldnt be a classfieds section opened but you would have to have a certain amount of posts and would have to be 'approved' to use them by one of the mods (approval would mean you would either have to prove you are a legitimate buyer/seller or showing where you have other 'dealings' like on other forums and/or feedback like ebay, other forum feedbacks and anything that will support you and not basically make you seem like the ideal 'scammer'! i.e from nigeria, have an ebay account and $40 million dollar for the mods brother!

[Infinix HOT 2] Infinixation:
Hy everybody ! I just want to ask if the infinix hot 2 will get the android N 7.0 , also i saw that there is an official beta for the nexus not for hot 2 :/ any ideas ?
[Infinix HOT 2] kingfeargod7:
am nt sure about Android N for hot 2.....it took alot of time fir them to even release android M for it :mad:
[Infinix HOT 2] agent47_GH:
No! We won't get N. This is because of the way it implements it's partitioning even the new Nexus 6P won't
[Infinix HOT 2] biniou14:
Nexus 6P won't have any problem running N, simply because it already does.... it is already possible to run betas from N on 6P

as for Hot 2, no one can tell yet, it is up to Infinix to decide

there are a few modifications on paritioning side due to the seamless upgrade feature, but it can work without it (if it was not possible, no existing device could be upgraded to N)
[Infinix HOT 2] agent47_GH:
I'm fully aware of N dev ROMs running on the 6P but I highly doubt Google would update it. As for Infinix pushing out N is wishful thinking :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
[Infinix HOT 2] agent47_GH:
Guys there's another update (minor/security patch most likely)
[Infinix HOT 2] infinix-_-:

[Android Head-Units] nixfu:
I recently ordered and received the hardware upgrade kit offered by CarJoying to upgrade my head unit to Android 5.1.1, which can be purchased for 165$, which you can supposedly get back $130 by sending your old parts back to carjoying. However, I have not contacted them or done that yet. See: https://www.carjoying.com/Joying-blog/42.html. This is how it worked for me.

A) Here is what came in the box. It was basically an entire new unit minus the Front Panel/LCD display. They sent me a new box with motherboard etc already installed, and a new touch screen which will be swapped from the one that is on top of the orignal LCD.

[IMG="What was in the box"]http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3760941&stc=1&d=1464104181[/IMG]

Attached below are a couple more images of the replacement unit they sent me. One thing I noticed right away was the new board has dual wifi-antennas(diversity?) which my old board did not.

B) So the process of doing the upgrade is basically this.

1) Remove your old front panel from the old unit.

2) Disassemble the front panel/LCD unit

3) Replace the touch screen front layer.

4) Reassemble the front panel/LCD unit

5) Attach to the new unit

6) Done

Attached below are some pics from the process.

The instructions that carjoying sends are mostly correct. My notes are:

1) remove the LCD from the plastic from by lifting up on the LEFT (buttons side) because the LCD has little clips that stick out on the other side.

2) remove the tape along the edge that holds the touch panel and LCD panel together carefully and reuse it

3) watch the black bezels on the edge of touch panel. Each of the edges is a little different width and that will help you line it up properly with the LCD

4) the old assembly touch panel attached to a little daughter board on the LCD board. The new touch panel will attach directly to the head unit motherboard and this daughterboard is no longer used. Apparently the new mainboard have direct support for talking to touch panels. This means one of the flex cables(the widest white one?) does not get reconnected (goes to the daughter board), and the new flex cable(little brown one) for the new touch panel does get connected to the mainboard.

This is what you get after this process, a new MCTD system that looks like your old MTCB system.

[IMG="Now showingMTCD"]http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3760962&d=1464105858[/IMG]

Next will be seeing it it is worth sending the old main unit back to get the "$130 deposit" money back or if it is not worth it after shipping costs etc. My total cost will be $30 shipping from joying + $x my cost to ship my old parts back to them in Shenzhen.
[Android Head-Units] CadillacMike:
Have you had it up and running yet? Any noticeable improvements?
[Android Head-Units] Krunk_Kracker:
This upgrade is for any previous JOYING 4.4.4 headunit with the RK3188?
[Android Head-Units] nixfu:
Yes. It was an 4.4.4 RK3188 MTCB and now it is a 5.1.1 RK3188 MTCD.
[Android Head-Units] nixfu:
It is much the same.

I have noticed a couple of small things such as previously if the radio was playing audio would cut out if you went from the engine running to battery only, or if you were on battery and started the car. During those quick power on/off's previously the radio would lose sound every time and you had to totally exit the radio app and start it again. That was an annoyance to me that seems to have been fixed in this new version.

Biggest difference to me is running stock firmware instead of Mayalsk's version. I miss it and hope he can make an Android 5 version for MTCD-type devices soon.
[Android Head-Units] CadillacMike:
I am still learning about these things, what makes Malaysk's ROM so special that everyone loves it so much?
[Android Head-Units] popeye70:
No.

At this moment, only the 4.4 units with 7" screen (no fulltouchscreen) can be upgraded.
[Android Head-Units] nixfu:
FYI. I have received the instructions from carjoying to send the parts back for the $130 refund/deposit. I am hoping the parts will fit into a USPS $27 flat rate medium sized international priority express box. I will be sending them back next week.
[Android Head-Units] nixfu:
There are a ton of things. Off the top of my head:

- there are lots more things you can configure in the settings such as the font/color/size/format of the time/date on the top menu bar (I miss that, the stock is just a very small time with no date).

- you can turn on showing the network traffic on the menu bar

- you get access to be able to customize what is and is not able to automatically startup, and even write your own app startups on boot

- he seems to have fixed the issue of apps on the SD card having disappearing icons, stock icons turn blank for any apps moved to SD card

- his roms already have root/sudo/su configured and installed (it is a pain to do manually via multisteps) and include titanium backup which is very handy

- a whole new advanced settings screen

Really he does a bunch of small stuff that add up i guess is the best way to put it.
[Android Head-Units] CadillacMike:
thanks, that does sound better. there is so much info on xda, sometimes it is hard to find basic stuff
[Android Head-Units] daveEM:
I'm about to try this. :) however...

I'm unfamiliar with these little ribbon connectors. Can you give me a little tip on how they work/unlock them? I imagine they are some kind of zero force type.

I've not taken my other unit apart yet but the touch screen ribbon is marked 1-6... I suppose it will plug in with the fingers down?

I do hate to waste someone's time in replying to what might be a simple or obvious answer but if you have time on your hands...

Edit:

Got her figured. Rock the little brown tabs out, then cable in, then push in the brown tabs.

That's what I think.

FYI. I installed Malaysk's new 5.1.1 firmware on my newly upgraded CarJoying unit last night and it is working great.

http://xdaforums.com/android-auto/m...lopment/rom-malaysk-roms-mtcd-device-t3385309

The fuse support he has that merges the internal flash and internal SD into one filesystem is a great feature and totally eliminates filling up internal storage so fast and having to do all the "Move to SD Card" stuff.
[Android Head-Units] FourDoor:
To clarify, does Malaysk's ROM work only on the customer upgraded Joying head units or does it also work on Joying's brand new out of the box 5.1.1. 2016 models?

The Fuse support is a much needed feature when the internal storage is only 1GB on my 10.1".
[Android Head-Units] nixfu:
I believe there are people running it on the newer Joyings with the 10" screens. Head over to the MTCD topic and join in.
[Android Head-Units] skange01:
Does anyone know if the fm radio and Bluetooth modules are replaced with this upgrade for the RK3188 1024X600 unit? I don't have a motherboard pic handy of the current configuration to see if those modules are soldered into the main board or not. My largest complaint with my unit is the crappy radio reception and the distorted Bluetooth sound when streaming from my phone. If these components are replaced with the new motherboard...are they any better? Also what about the internal microphone? Thanks in advance!

Hello Everyone,

Is it possible to install SuperSU on my Redmi Note 3 without TWRP? I am currently on latest version of China Dev with officially unlocked bootloader.

I am okay with temporary flash of TWRP, but want to be stock recovery, after installing SuperSU.

Is it possible at all? If yes, can someone please guide me with the process.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] spunxhoe:
You need to have a unlocked bootloader - either officially or unofficially (search the forums for the methods)

copy the latest supersu.zip to your memory card/internal memory

reboot to fastboot by holding the volume up and power button

set up adb on your computer

copy the cofface twrp for redmi note 3 into your adb folder on the computer ( do not use the official twrp, cos you need a modified boot.img for it to work)

then type "fastboot boot cofface.img" (replace cooface.img with the file name of your recovery)

your will boot into a temporary twrp

install the supersu.zip and reboot

Voila!
