No one claimed you launched a "bounty" specifically. You're playing semantics. We said you launched Console Developer Rewards, the program itself. You claimed you didn't launch the program itself fully and asuka has already posted the links that prove you did.

Liar. "The first 30-day cycle of Console Developer Rewards will run March 21 through April 20. "

Quoted from: http://console.com.co/devrewards/

Why was it pushed back? From your own update:

"We met our self-imposted timetable to post terms, but we didn't give people enough time for feedback, and to properly inform the projects we plan to support.

We're moving back the first month of Console Developer Rewards to March 21, a week from today. This will give us time to have everything in-place and do it correctly."

If you don't wanna discuss Console, fine. This project: your own page for the bounty of THIS project that YOU link to doesn't say this round is cash only. It says what I pasted, that gadgets can be substituted for cash, and the rules can change, at any time. But if you do want to use cash for THIS program (we're remaining on topic), again I ask, where is it coming from? You conveniently didn't address that at all in your reply.
[Connected Car] Christopher Price:
Ahem, asked and answered. I'm putting up the bounty money out of my own pocket.
[Connected Car] asuka_chris:
And this would a different pocket from the one that the ConsoleOS funds went into ;)
[Connected Car] dimex:
Hey, why don't you be a man and take that same $10,000 to refund the couple thousand Kickstarter backers you shafted?

Or better yet, take that $10,000 and deliver the physical rewards you promised. Remember this post you made on May 13?: https://twitter.com/iConsole/status/731224776815992832

"Finally slaying spam demons is just one of the things we've checked off this week. Next up, perk shipments for #ConsoleOS. Then new stuff!"

That's almost 2 months ago. You still need to fulfill your campaign obligations before beginning another vaporware project of yours.
[Connected Car] Christopher Price:
PM me with your Kickstarter ID and I will investigate. Our last update made clear that our pivot to hardware will extend refund options to KS backers - or give them a credit towards our upcoming hardware.

We've committed to refunding people on Console OS. What more do you want?
[Connected Car] bengadget:
Out your own pocket...."if need be". So you post a 10,000 dollar bounty and only to reveal after being asked that you don't actually have it and will maybe have to put it on a credit card?
[Connected Car] Christopher Price:
I don't see the point of the animus here. If Console can't come up with the money over the next 90 days, I'm personally promising to pull it off a credit card and back it myself.

That's not Kickstarter backer money, and we've offered to refund backers in our June 1 update. Edit: See our June 1 update if you are a backer - https://www.kickstarter.com/project...t-android-remastered-for-the-pc/posts/1592356

No KS funds from Console OS are being used here, period.

Please respect moderators wishes that discussion related to Console OS end with that. This is totally derailing the effort to salvage Mike's app... and if you think you can do better, please do.
[Connected Car] bengadget:
Questions about the money are on topic. Now here is the problem. The problem is you're asking people to do work with zero guarantee of payment. You've just admitted you don't have the money. They're supposed to go off your promise, given your history? Again, your own page says you don't have to give them any money at all. You can substitute hardware at any time.
[Connected Car] Christopher Price:
Sorry. I'm trying to save this app. I will keep trying. If you don't consider it a trustworthy offer, that's up to you. I'm putting a personal guarantee on payment for code submitted within the time period stated on the CDR page for OpenHU (June 24 to August 31). Edit: Provided it actually fixes the issue - I hope the terms of the bounty are pretty clear.

We did have to put some legal terms in there, this is being run by a company. It is to a degree, arbitrary. It's FOSS code, and we are committing to paying in cash for this initial round. The gadget legalese was written prior. This round will be paid in cash.

If you have a better idea for reviving Mike Reid's app - please provide it. I welcome a better effort.
[Connected Car] bengadget:
You're committed to going $10,000 in debt to save an open source app instead of focusing efforts on your own struggling company, even as your competitors lap you. Seems legit.

Let's be honest here. You want to make money off of this one day. But while you casually mention that were talks with Reid about potential commercial use of this app, you'll continue to wrap yourself in the "Do it for open source!" flag so the mods don't shut down a program-for-pay thread.
[Connected Car] Christopher Price:
Not true. Originally Mike Reid was going to re-license his GPLv3 app to us for use in a commercial product. He was, effectively, going to be on the team. We were developing a new product that leveraged his app.

We still might. His death really set that plan back. If we do use the code going forward, it will still be GPL. Still be open-source. And we won't promote those commercial uses here. All compliant with XDA rules.

Edit: And no, this is unrelated to our upcoming device announcement with Teclast... the initial/upcoming device was never planned to run this app.
[Connected Car] bengadget:
Of course, you won't promote the commercial uses here. But the plan IS to have commercial uses. You're only here to get people to do the hard part that you, and you alone, will benefit from.

Why was he going to join your team exactly? What exactly were you bringing to the table?
[Connected Car] Christopher Price:
As mentioned, OpenHU builds will be posted and maintained for all to use. While I'll be the first to stipulate that we would not have done that, had Mike Reid stayed with us... I'll also be the first to say that the only thing that can replace Mike Reid's talent is an entire community of contribution.

We created this project because Mike Reid passed away, and his passing did change our focus to making this a FOSS project... in doing so, everyone will get to use and benefit from it.

We will never take OpenHU closed source. We can't. It's GPL, and any contributions from new people will make it permanently GPL. There are 140 pages in Mike's thread of people who want to see this app continue. Those 140 pages of people who used this app, will benefit as it bounces back.

If you set aside your animus over unrelated matters, you might see that we're actually doing good here. If you have a better plan to save Mike's app - third time requesting - I'd love to hear it.
[Connected Car] bengadget:
But you aren't doing good. You literally aren't doing anything. That's why this thread exists. To get other people to "do."

Btw, those "unrelated matters"...completely related, dude.
[Connected Car] Christopher Price:
In the first post we isolated the GMS file that caused the app to break, and provided the steps to work around the issue. So yes, we are actively debugging. Go back and look!

We hope to follow shortly with a step by step guide after testing, and then post builds for non-devs to test with.

Please retract the claim we aren't doing anything - it's patently false.
[Connected Car] bengadget:
You merely took advantage of a path Reid laid down for you. Like I said, the whole point of this is to pay others to do the real work, even though you've previously criticized Jide for paying people to code.
[Connected Car] Christopher Price:
Not true, again. Console criticized Jide for failure to comply with the GPL. And guess what? Weeks later, they came into compliance.

I'm not aware of Console criticizing Jide for "paying people to code" - we did question their relationship with another project, but it would be off-topic to discuss that further here.

Your objections to our efforts have been noted, please stop persisting with it. If Mike didn't want his code to live on in GPL projects, he wouldn't have posted it publicly as GPL code before he died. If anyone else wants to advance his code, we're all ears.
[Connected Car] dimex:
Ooo, the "team." We've never heard that before. All those "industry partners" we can't find any proof of. Or the "new product!" Oooooo, we haven't heard that either. Mechaworks, iConsoleTV, iConsole Micro (should've shipped a year ago), Console OS Pro, Console Teclast tablets. So many products, but none exist!

Christopher, you should really consider putting the $10,000 on your credit card to refund your backers or ship the perks. Why haven't you shipped my t-shirt and given me my flyer and month of Spotify Premium yet? You promised those and still haven't delivered.

You could clear your name if you did some of those things. Yet, instead you continue to siphon other developers' code and pretend like you know what you're doing with your pretty little "Intel Black Belt Developer" badge, even though we all know you can get one of those by simply participating in the online forum community. You don't even have to provide a single line of code, something that resonates well with you.
[Connected Car] bengadget:
I can post the link, dude. But it would be off-topic.

You've lied in this thread at least once and you're asking me to retract something? Again, this thread is proof that all the real work needs to be done by someone else. You found a bug. Great. Reid left the A/B hooks in for a reason. A ton of developers here could have swapped out that file. Big deal. I can retract "literally" if you'd like. Like I can't say you "literally" did nothing on your other project. String changes are something.

This tells me you can't do the real work:

I have no problem with bounties. I have problems with lies.
[Connected Car] Christopher Price:
This off-topic harassment is out of hand. Nobody can discuss OpenHU from a code standpoint with it continuing.

I've asked the moderators to step in. This has become uncivil and downright harassment. I won't post further until the thread is cleaned up, or clear boundaries set.

Hello everybody,

I just got my Hermes a week ago and was very excited about all the customization possibilities, problem is that at random times people call me and there is no way of me knowing! My dad and brother were trying to get a hold of me and I had no clue, although when I do a soft reset my phone works like normal-->temporarily. I think that the phone might be defective because it had this problem out of the box; before i upgraded the rom to Pro Black 3.0.1 and the radio to 1.43, thanks to Mr. Vanx' site.

Any solutions or suggestions would be greatly appreciated, also any upgrade recomendations are welcomed!

Thanks guys
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] intrglctcrevfnk:
What do you mean about 'no way of knowing' that they were calling?

No ring? No notification? Just a voicemail after?

How is your reception?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] freddyrod:
Yeah, there's no notification, no ring, not even a missed call, no voicemail received. I've tried with people standing next to me with full reception, they would hear my phone ring and go to voicemail and I would get nothin at all on my end. :confused:
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] pross8002:
Upon using wifi, my Redmi will hold 4G for an unknown amount of time, then suddenly either drop to HSPA, or UMTS depending on the region; as to my understanding this is what SIM Standby does where it just turns off data and leaves the voice and sms services online which is perfectly okay with me because in theory it saves power.

Though using T-Mobile, it doesn't play nice. It randomly drops services, then emergency calls only, then grabs service often switching frequencies, and it does this until I shut off Wifi, grabs 4G/LTE again, and I turn on wifi. Is there an option or a build.prop edit I can do to turn off SIM Standby?

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] BrokenPixel:
Hey guys I Just got my HTC m10h Asian version, I'm having one hell of a time with the LTE on band 28 the only one my carrier uses. Here is my story.

Phone starts up, gets into android, H/H+ pops up, if I'm lucky I will see the LTE in the next couple of minutes (usually is already there on my Nexus 6), a few seconds later the signal cuts off and no data at all. Chrome states that I'm offline. I have tried to browse and even do a speed test while it states i'm on LTE but as soon as the phone "feels" that I'm pulling any data it will shut down mobile data and cuts me off. So I can't really test if LTE is working at all. My signal is pretty good as i get -72db ~ -77db.

This is happening in stock ROM and on Viper10 2.2.0, I have forced the phone to LTE only and it takes a few minutes to get into LTE most likely it will not engage LTE for long periods.

I want to know if there is anyone out there using band 28 and what are your experience with it.

I don't feel like paying $25 just to try out a different radio but if it WILL fix the issue I sure don't mind doing it.

Any ideas, experiences or whatever?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] SuperAndroid507:
Same here

Hello I live in Panama. Just got a new HTC 10 m10h and Im experiencing the same issue. All carriers here use 700Mhz Band 28 so I have no choices left. I downloaded two system updates, one about 500mb and another about 180mb no luck either. Mine has never acquired LTE signal just HSPA with sudden drops. This is my first HTC ever and I really hope this can be fixed soon or I will end blacklisting this brand forever.

I will continue researching this if I find anything I will reply asap.

How are you sure HTC__621 supports band 28..?

700Mhz is utilized to support the following LTE bands: 12, 13, 14, 17, 28, 29, 44. 67 and 68..

So seeing 700Mhz mentioned on the box does not necessarily imply Band 28..

Furthermore..

Guys who used hTc 10 in Qatar had quite similar problem with LTE there..

However 1.90. update solved the issue..!

I am really curious to see that "label" mentioning bands.. (I honestly saw just labels mentioning frequencies on Taiwanese model boxes.. Was that one you mentioned HTC__622 for HK..?)

On the other hand Google returns that UHL model of hTc 10 indeed supports band 28..

In Download Mode your unit reads UHL - correct?

I had left the box at work, I was sure there were Band numbers, however it shows the frequencies instead. In download mode I see this value: htc_pmeuhl

I haven't found anybody else using the 10 in Panama, neither of the four carriers sell HTC phones, you have to relay in importers or buy it yourself online.

Flashing another version is my next step if the upcoming update doesn't fix my issue.

As soon as I got the WiFi connected, the current update (1.91.617.1) notification popped out. With this version however, there's no difference and still can't get LTE network connection. I haven't restored root after the switch, gonna do that to check with LTE Discovery as suggested.

Friends, if you own a T-Mobile V10, with Chrome and Google Cast, on both LP and Marshmallow, can PLEASE run this Test for me? I would really, really appreciate it!

1. Open Chome

2. Go to cnn.com or any site that has video streaming

3. Play the video in the browser until the Cast icon pops up

4. Cast to your TV

5. Once the video is running, pull down your notifications and click on the stream that's running from Google Cast to launch the full screen player controller window

6. Please report what happens? Does your video keep running and you are able to play with the video progress (Rewind, Forward with the slider) OR does it crash Chrome, loses the video controller on your phone, but the video keeps running on your TV?

Please report this on your phones as much as you can and please mention which ROM, Android version you are using.

Note: This has crashed for me since G3, G4 (LP), and the V10 (LP), wondering if I am the only one with this issue?

Thank you in advance for your testing!!! Would appreciate it DEEPLY if you could do this for me.

Hello,

I would like to debrand my phone. I read some guide here and I will use srk tool.

Now I'm on c02b133.

Which is the correct procedure?

have I to install via dload c432b136, go to c900 and then unlock bootloader, root e oem info file?

Or have I to unlock bootloader, root, oem info file and then flash the rom c432?.

I have this doubt because in some post, someone told to reinstall stock recovery after root, and forced the installation of the stock rom..so I'm not sure about correct way.

Thank to everyone

unlock bootloader > install twrp > root > change oeminfo and custom.bin > fastboot stock recovery > dload

after finished your phone become c432 and it can any ota from c432 firmware.

if you would like to go back to , you can do with the same method.

Always make backup of your oeminfo before u debrand.

I'm from italy, and in this week i'll receive my new huawei p9, but there is a problem: is brand vodafone!

So the updates are reeeeally slow...like the last was b133, and i saw something like b180 on the no brand smartphones :S

So i was searching how to debrand the p9 and i saw this guide:

"to debrand the phone, the boot loader has to be locked and with the stock recovery.

create a folder in the sd called "dload"

download the ROM Stock EVA-l09C432B136 file, and place in the dload folder

turn off the device and reboot it pressing power+volume up+volume down"

I don't know if this is old or what, its still working?
