DUv10. 6 (M) rom have everything you want, am operating it right now and the best thing is they are developing DUv11 (N) and what I see there in DU community DUv11 is going to be one of beast rom ever.

So it's good for you to be familiar with DU.

Or

Resurrection Remix by vatsal what I learn about vatsal is he is one the beast developer here.

He believes in developing few rom with lot of features with good performance.

So go with it.

Or

Use stock rom + xposed + greenify

But in Stock you need to flash Kernal like squid or coffee Kernal for led notification.

( I never flash custom Kernal in Stock rom so I don't know whether it's good to flash custom Kernal in Stock rom or not)

CM13 official is one of the best roms... If you want battery life, you can install Greenify, Naptime, Xposed Framework, and DS battery saver... and activate all these in the xposed app... you will get the best from a rom...
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mogamycool:
You are right, cm13 is the most stable custom rom till now.

You can install xposed and its modules without troubles.

You can install moto g4 camera and enjoy its benefits.

You will not find problems with games or apps.

Use coffee-kernel to get much performance with less temperature.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cyl3el2Cleal2:
OK. Thank you everybody.

Can CM13 disable and enable sim like stock ROM?
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cyl3el2Cleal2:

Hi!

I'm using QTEK 9000 running WM5. Upon installing .Net CF v2.0 SP2 I faced low storage memory problem

I installed it to 'Storage Card' but could not find anything there. However, I found a folder .NET CF 2.0 under 'Windows' directory in the main memory which consists of 2 files totalling 80KB. So, I presume the bulk of the .NET CF must be instaled into the main memory somewhere

Now, I want to have the .NET CF 2.0 SP2 removed.

Anyway to completely uninstall it as it is NOT showing up in the 'Remove Programs'?

Thanks
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] FOSA:
RE

Hi!

Can someone confirm whether that after the .NET CF 2.0 SP2 has been properly installed it'll show up in the 'Remove Programs'?

Is there any way to know the exact locations of all the files and registry entires located in the device installed by .NET CF 2.0 SP2 so that I can manually remove them? BTW, is there any way to know what are ALL the files installed by .NET CF2.0 SP2?

My pda is functioning properly now and I've no intention to hard reset unless absoultely necesary. If I delete more programs to make space for more storage memory and re-install the .NET CF 2.0 SP2 (to override the previous installed copy) hoping that this time it might show up in the 'Remove Programs' would it help?

As a last resort is it possible to get help directly from the .NET CF 2.0 SP2 development team if all else fail (i.e. I do not want to hard reset my device)? Does anybody has the contact email of the development team?

Thanks again

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] shadowcore:
How do you feel about Samsung's mass recall of the note 7?

Obviously peiple could be angry, but this event raises the question of device safty.

This doesnt happen all that often and im interested in your opinion.

My personal opinion is that Samsung failed miserably here.

From the high price, one would expect competence and qualify control. Nope.

From the high price, one would expect better facilities to make these things. Nope

Smartphones are incredibly overpriced.

OEMs dont offer QC.

They dont offer a valuable long lasting product.

Only 18 months of sofware support.

One year of warranty.

Non removable batteries. This recalll eouldnt even be a thing if this phone had removable batteries. Or aka planned obsolescence.

This isnt a problem with just samsung however, but they made an excellent poimt about what i raised here.

I am extremely disappointed by this situation.

Id nothing else, people should be angry at samsung for wasting their time with the note 7.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] BozQ:
Disappointed. But not angry at Samsung about what happened to the Galaxy Note 7.

I applaud them for creating such an exciting device. Such a massive recall wouldn't have happened if they didn't create an outstanding smartphone.

If the battery fires befell on another brand's smartphone, let's say HTC 10, I don't think they would handle it as well as Samsung did.

Okay, back to Samsung. Clearly, they I overlooked something. If SDI and the replacement units with ATL batteries are catching fire, then something else is triggering it.

I strongly suspect the dual curve design is the main culprit setting the battery on fire. But that's me speculating. I sincerely hope Samsung will be able to find the root of this problem and be transparent about it to everyone. And what measures they will take to prevent such disaster from happening again.

I'm seeking a full refund from them instead of exchanging for an S7 Edge. I'll be getting the LG V20 next month. But I'll be keeping a close eye on Samsung. And also keeping an open mind about their S8 and Note 8.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] svache:
I think Samsung did the right thing during the first recall.

I think the second recall was done more because of pressure from the media, than that it would've been done if there was no recall presiding there issues. They needed to protect their brand at large, and considering the Note is only a small part of everything they sell, it was likely better to take this loss rather than placing the trustworthiness of their brand at risk.

All in all I'm not happy with it, but it is what it is, I don't blame them either way.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] BozQ:
If it's anything, I think the replacement unit with the supposedly "safe" ATL batteries are more prone to combusting than the original.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] svache:
Btw, I'd like to add that I'm not dismissing that there may still be an issue with the phone, it's just that I have my doubts that the 2nd recall would've happened without the media playing it's part.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] winol:
this was all media`s fault, some years ago there would no be a fuss so great as this, this is to be expected in the future with other brands as well

What are peoples experiences with the official Silicone case?

I just picked one up yesterday and I am very impressed. Here is a link to a very quick video I made of it.

[YOUTUBE]lUhuiBIwkRk[/YOUTUBE]

PROS

It adds little bulk to the phone (19mm thick so it adds 10.5 mm to the phone)

Matches the style of the phone well

Does NOT feel cheap and nasty at all

Silicone is smooth and a little slippery so it can slip in and out of your pocket easily

But is grippy enough that it doesn't feel like it will slip out of my hand

Button presses feel just the same as without the case on (very easy to press)

Cut outs are precise and perfectly cut

Soft inside and will not mark or damage the phone

Seems like it would give good basic fumble drop protection

The case protrudes past the front of the screen giving front drop protection (but does not encroach on the touch area of the screen)

Super subtle little 'G' logo on the back to match the 'G' on the back of the phone

CONS

It is a bit of a lint and dust magnet. If you have tissues in your pocket etc it picks it up all the time

Silicone near volume can 'bulge' a little bit as it doesn't have as much support as parts of the frame where there is the internal poly-carbonate to make it 'hug' the phone

Is thicker than the having no case at all

Full side cutout at the bottom around the speaker and charging port ( could have been slotted for the single speaker and charging port)

More colours would be a nice to have (gradient or two tone colour would have been awesome)

EDIT - noticed a tiny issue identified in another review (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGkpOP9TWBc). I don't think it is a deal breaker. Other review had very different thoughts on it. Maybe his was not as well produced as mine.
[Google Pixel Accessories] m85476585:
Thanks for the review! I was debating getting one of these, but I was worried it would be too sticky and make the phone hard to take out of my pocket. It sounds like it's not too bad except for the lint and dust. Maybe it's worth a try. Now to decide if I should wait for blue. Google must hate colors or something.

My top case choices are:

Silicone Pixel Case by Google

Otterbox Commuter

Incipio Carnaby
[Google Pixel Accessories] Pr.TOSHIBA:
I want one, but I feel like $35 is kind of steep. If a third party made a copy of the three layer design and was cheaper I'd probably get it.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Motawa88:
Would it be possible if the note 7 gets nougat?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nine5raptor:
Pretty unlikely as the Note 7 is dead.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dilligaf112:
For whatever reason my stylus doesn't want to work with my original shield tablet. It works fine with my k1 though. It doesn't recognize when I remove it from its holder and it doesn't register on screen unless I apply a good amount of pressure. The screen registers my finger just fine though. I've had it apart to swap the guts (board and battery) from my bricked tablet to the replacement tablet after the replacements screen was cracked but the issue was present before that and I hooked everything back up correctly. The stylus worked fine on the donor tablet whose body and screen the guts are now in, before it was bricked through the ota. Could it be a possible hardware failure and if so what part would it be so that I can swap it back over from my donor tablet?
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dilligaf112:
Now what really blows my mind is that the stylus also works with my galaxy s4 just fine oddly enough but still doesn't work with my original shield tablet
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dilligaf112:
So I recalibrated the screen and now my stylus is working again. Will try to repair the sensor and see how that goes, it anyone else has had sensor issues please let me know if there is a software fix of some sort, last resort I will attempt to replace the sensor ribbon.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] makit_:
Hey there,

I've got my first HTC device some days ago (-> HTC 10), but coming from a Nexus 5 where things are handled differently, I'm currently quite confused on how all of this works with my HTC 10.

I'd like to apologize in advance if the following questions seem to be stupid or unnecessary, but I'd like to use my device to the fullest and therefore I need your help.

My device is not branded (as far as I can tell) and I've already unlocked it via the steps on htcdev.com + I've installed TWRP + SuperSU (thanks to my previous knowledge with my N5 this was somewhat easy).

Now I got my first OTA update and this is when things got complicated. Several questions popped up and I tried to answer them myself while looking over here, but after reading all those threads I'm even more confused than before :/

My questions are the following:

1) Is there any way to manually update your device with the newest OTA update WITHOUT losing any data? (see question 2)

2) Do I need a microSD card in order to do so? I've seen several YT videos where they did a backup of the current system, but there still was a data wipe after flashing, so why even bother doing a backup at all?

3) My device is unlocked but with S-ON. Do I need S-OFF after all? As far as I can tell I don't need this, but is there any scenario I'd probably need it? (see question 4)

4) I'm thinking about getting a custom rom (Leedroid seems to be pretty decent). Can you recommend any of those custom roms and do I need S-OFF in order to flash them?

5) S-OFF + Locked or S-OFF + Unlocked? What's the difference? Any issues with the warranty?

6) If I do use a custom rom (e.g. Leedroid), is there also a way to update it to further versions without losing any data?

7) Where do I get the latest firmware for manually updating my device? I've already found a thread for it (http://xdaforums.com/htc-10/how-to/stock-stock-collection-recovery-ruu-ota-t3359297), but my current firmware (1.90.401.5) or the one for the OTA update that already popped up (1.95.401.3) isn't listed over there. [EDIT: found my current firmware. Do I need to flash to it in order to do the OTA update?)

8) One last general question: as far as I understand it, unlocking your device is also the same as debranding it? I'm not sure if I'm mixing things up when reading about this. Is there any way to see if my device was branded before I did unlock/root it though?

I'm completely fine with losing my current data if that means that I can set it up my device in such a way that I can avoid any further data wipes when flasing/updating.

I'd be absolutely grateful if someone would answer those questions and help me to understand all of this.

Greetings,

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Tarima:
1) Yes..you can apply the OTA manually, which won't flash the firmware image in the update but you can then find a no-wipe version of the new firmware on xda and flash it. Check out the faq in the twrp thread

2) for flashing firmware packages generally yes its better to have an SD card but I *think* it's possible to do it by issuing fastboot commands

3) s-off is needed if you wanna flash a new firmware I believe

4) you don't need S-off to flash a new ROM that's compatible with your firmware. Leedroid should work for you (this answer can be easily found by checking out each ROM thread and reading the Prerequisites section)

5) yes, most of the time you can "dirty flash" a new version of the same rom on top of the old one without wiping. If any issues pop up, or if it's a new base with large differences, then a wipe is needed. You can usually tell if a wipe is required by checking out what the developer says in the thread when a new updated is posted

6) I'm sure it's in a thread somewhere, you gotta search (I think sneakyghost's thread might have them)! And again you need S-off if you wanna flash firmwares
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] side_flip15:
not an expert but here's my thoughts...

1) Is there any way to manually update your device with the newest OTA update WITHOUT losing any data? (see question 2) Yes. But if you want official update from HTC or your carrier via OTA you should be on stock. If you're on custom ROM, you can always dirty flash. But updating to a newer build, ROM dev sometimes recommend a full wipe

2) Do I need a microSD card in order to do so? I've seen several YT videos where they did a backup of the current system, but there still was a data wipe after flashing, so why even bother doing a backup at all?

SD card is not a requirement but is recommended since a full back-up size is ranging from 5gb-10gb maybe more depending in how many apps you installed. Backup is also recommended so you can always go back/restore your working ROM in case you messed up updating.

3) My device is unlocked but with S-ON. Do I need S-OFF after all? As far as I can tell I don't need this, but is there any scenario I'd probably need it? (see question 4). You need s-off mostly on updating your firmware or converting your device to other carrier or if you want to be unlocked. Right now you can flash any custom roms you like since we do not have a major update yet eg.1.x to 2.x. Once 2.x firmware is released, You can easily flash this firmware. But if you're S-ON, you can only update your firmware via official OTA from your carrier or if @Sneakyghost provide specific firmware for your carrier (matching cid and mid) in this thread else you're stock at 1.x firmware and ROMs that will only work on that specific firmware.

4) I'm thinking about getting a custom rom (Leedroid seems to be pretty decent). Can you recommend any of those custom roms and do I need S-OFF in order to flash them? See my answer in #3

5) S-OFF + Locked or S-OFF + Unlocked? What's the difference? Any issues with the warranty? If you're S-off you can always revert back to S-on and return to stock for warranty purposes.

6) If I do use a custom rom (e.g. Leedroid), is there also a way to update it to further versions without losing any data? Yes. see also #1

7) Where do I get the latest firmware for manually updating my device? I've already found a thread for it (http://xdaforums.com/htc-...u-ota-t3359297), but my current firmware (1.90.401.5) or the one for the OTA update that already popped up (1.95.401.3) isn't listed over there. [EDIT: found my current firmware. Do I need to flash to it in order to do the OTA update?)See @Sneakyghost thread linked in #3. Firmware updating can be done via OTA or via fastboot(firmware zip can be downloaded) or full RUU (updating both ROM and firmware).

8) One last general question: as far as I understand it, unlocking your device is also the same as debranding it? I'm not sure if I'm mixing things up when reading about this. Is there any way to see if my device was branded before I did unlock/root it though? I think you meant sim unlocking here?? Generally, "unlocking" mostly mentioned in xda refers to bootloader
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] makit_:
Thanks for your response! The numeration is wrong though as I edited my post while you were already typing your answers, but I figured it out nonetheless :)

–––––––––––––––––––––––

When using a custom ROM, is it also possible to save your data so you can restore it after the full wipe?

As far as I can tell, when doing a backup, you dont save your data 'partition' as it is encrypted anyways. Do I assume right that when doing a backup, I cannot restore my data I had before doing the flash?

I've already seen the sunshine thread which is about turning S-OFF. While it is possible to go back to S-ON, it was recommended to let your device stay in S-OFF. Is there a high risk in bricking your device when trying to go back to S-ON?

As far as I know, doing so will void your warranty. Won't they notice if I just revert it myself and then send it in for warranty?

Sorry this might be a rather dumb question, but I always thought ROM and firmware are the same thing. Or is it that updating my device via OTA is updating my firmware, while installing something like Leedroid is altering my ROM?

Again, thanks for all your responses in advance! You're helping me out a lot!

Greetings,

makit_
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] side_flip15:
its possible but there's possibility that you might have some issue. Not sure though, never done that. I always use titanium backup to restore my apps.

Data partition can be backed up actually and can be restored.

Agree. there is no sense in reverting back to s-on unless if it's for warranty purposes.

I would say NO. I never used sunshine to s-off. I am using a hardware s-off and I did not experience any issue going back to s-on.

On the device itself, I don't think so as long as you return it in full stock state. But if I remember correctly HTC dev requires you to provide your imei when requesting for unlock token bin file used to unlock bootloader, So if your unlock you device via HTC dev they have your imei in their record. They know that you already unlocked your device and warranty is void already.

Take a look at this link. It provides you a complete explanation between ROM and Firmware.

Updating via official OTA usually updates ROM and firmware.

Installing a custom rom does not update firmware. Yes, it only alters ROM. But your ROM should always match your firmware at least the first digit of the firmware version (eg. 1.xx). For instance Android N (firmware veraion to be 2.x) arrives and LeeDroid updates its ROM to this, to be able to flash this latest custom rom, your firmware should also be at latest 2.x firmware else it will not boot. In this case, you need to update your firmware either via OTA, Fastboot or RUU.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] d_Schizzo:
Thats a thing that iam also interested in. Iam also new to htc.

I think with firmware they mean bootloader. But nobody gave me a good answer till now...
