[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bashme:
Hello.

Thank you for your response.

OK so these are the steps i have followed for the HTC One M8. Please let me know if they are correct.

1. I already have Android SDK on my windows pc.

2. I downloaded and install htc sync manager.

3. I downloaded RUU file from this link: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24369303960687057

0P6BIMG_M8_UL_M60_SENSE70_MR_HTC_Europe_6.12.401.4_Radio_1.29.214500021.12G_20.72.4196t.01_release_464360_signed.zip

4. I downloaded htc_fastboot.exe from this link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8L...dKVEdHX1U/view

5. Copied the two downloaded files into the platform-tools folder of my android sdk.

6. I renamed 0P6BIMG_M8_UL_M60_SENSE70_MR_HTC_Europe_6.12.401.4_Radio_1.29.214500021.12G_20.72.4196t.01_release_464360_signed.zip

to RUU.zip

7. I opened command window here and typed the following:

fastboot reboot-bootloader (reboot to bootloader to ensure the connection is good)

fastboot oem rebootRUU (put the device in RUU mode)

htc_fastboot flash zip RUU.zip (to install RUU)

First command is a success

Second command is a success

Third command fails with following output:

fastboot reboot-bootloader

Then it automatically starts this command, but does not do anything:

Not sure what to do now!

Thanks very much.

Did you follow the instruction correctly ?

HTC USB drivers - Install HTC Sync Manager - http://www.htc.com/us/support/softwa...c-manager.aspx

- it will install the needed drivers then uninstall the HTC Sync Manager but leave the drivers.​

There are 3 different method to install RUU zip - read and pick one and try again.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bashme:
Yes i installed HTC Sync Manager. Do i need to uninstall it? Or can it stay on the PC without causing any problems for flashing RUU??

OK, i will try a different method.

Will post update.

Thank you.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bashme:
Worked at last!

Thank you very much, really appreciate it. You are a star!

Just one question, is it the same process for the HTC One M9? (of course the RUU will be different)

I am heading over to the M9 forum now.

Thanks again.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
It's best to ask there. The microSD & ARUWizard methods will be different.

The htc_fastboot flash same process but you may need htc_fastboot for M9.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] justinchao740:
I don't get it. Your bootloader says that the software status is official (which means no modification) but for some reason your phone had gone into a bootloop. I would like to learn more about Android and help this community can anyone tell me why this happens?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahmed.ismael:
that's happened for some people now anyone receive the latest OS by OTA have this issue it solved by flashing RUU

I believe it's something conflicting in the system after OTA
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bashme:
Previously, i successfully managed to flash my M8, great.

Unfortunately i did not put my sim in the M8, as i needed to copy contacts from my sim (i shouldn't have saved on sim ;-/ ) and wanted to get my M9 sorted too.

Anyway, today i put in my sim EE UK into the M8 and it cannot get a network connection. In fact I tried other UK sims too (VF UK, O2 UK, Three UK) and none were able to connect to their respective networks.

One other thing i noticed when i dialled *#*#4363#*#* and selected Phone information, is that Set preferred network type shows WCDMA. I changed this to GSM/WCDMA/LTE, but after a restart, again it showed WCDMA.

Can someone make any sense of this please?

Been a while, but wondering if there is any threads out there to manually update beyond OE2 without loosing root and tripping Knox. Last time i recall there was a way to change part of the OS but not the kernel to 5.11 but I'm more interested in 6.x and if anyone has figured it out.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] fcueto:
Hi,

I'm new to the xda-developers forum.

I've carefully read all informations available on the wiki and in various threads of the forum, and I have to say that I'm a little confused with upgrading / downgrading stuff.

First of all, I have a SPV M3100 bought in France, Simlocked to Orange France (HERM100, IPL 1.01, SPL 1.11).

I would like to test the official HTC WM6 ROM, but I'm not sure on how I should process.

First, as far as I have understood, it is a good idea to install HardSPL v7, which allows me to flash the HTC Rom on my Orange France CID-locked device. Am I right ?

Second step, I have downloaded the HTC_TyTN_FRA_3.54.256.2_103_6275_1.47.00.10_108.exe file from the following thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=320829

From here I'm not sure on how to proceed.

Knowing that I would like to be able to rollback to the official WM5 rom shipped by Orange France (which I have already downloaded from the wiki), what should I do:

- either flash the WM6 rom directly. I'm afraid of "overwriting" the hardspl v7 stuff in the device ?

- or extracting the content of the WM6 rom and doing all the stuff described in http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_UpgradeGuide to remove the bootloader from the ROM ?

I have read some posts about custom RUU too... What does this means ? Am I concerned ?

Thank you for your help.

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gretschpr:
Hello. My Note 5 started to show this weird issue while charging thru cable (please see linked video), sometimes it stop acting up and "cable charging" shows but charges super slow (like 5 hours or so to full charge) "fast charging" doesn't kick in either. Charger adapter and cable are good because I tried using it with my mom's S7 and it works great, fast charging and everything so it might not be the adapter nor the cable. Also, sometimes the battery says (for example) like 20% and suddenly drops to 15% and if i reboot, it boots with a different percentage (sometimes more, sometimes less) also, I should add that it charges fine thru wireless charging. anyone experienced this issue or something similar? Any help will be appreciated!

This is the video showing the issue, the video is not mine but it shows the issue I am having, mine is not as bad as the one on the video, but nonetheless is the same issue [youtube]Kwsq2cR-DQk[/youtube]

What is the most stable rom which gives me the longest on screen time for my kenzo ?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Dr. Joy Das:
Slim6 + Delta gapps + Xposed v87 + divine beats audio mod = True performance

Slim 6 has radon kernel built in( thanks to Umang ), so need of separate kernel flashing

I get about 9-13hrs SOT depending on usage easily.

Minimum 4hrs SOT on playing WiFi online games like After pulse, Mobile legends, War robots

Camera performance usual in daylight, for lowlight use FreeDcam app....its noise reduction algorithm is less aggressive + can capture in raw10 format(.dng) via camera2 api. Raw format can be edited & converted to .jpeg by Adobe lightroom

ROM itself is bare basics without any unnecessary codes so best performance

No problem in VoLTE

Hope this info helps:)

If you have rooted and or unlocked your bootloader... You wont be installing the Nougat FTF through flashtool. And you wont be downloading it OTA.... You will / We will have to wait till somebody fixes the Flashtool so it will install Nougat onto our devices.... Simple as that....

USA got the OTA nougat today. To be honest there is not any real noticeable difference except for a few menus that are a bit out of order from MM6 I really dont care about Nougat. It aint a priority...
[ZTE Axon Pro] Chuck Jones:
I went through three different people in a ZTE chat session, last one supposedly a supervisor.

All of them had absolutely no information on possible updates, with very vague answers.

They only had pat answers that the Axon 7 was getting updates.

One of them did say the Axon was already at end-of-life.

With no support in XDA for anything, no community builds, ZTE likes planned obsolescence.

Unfortunately not everyone can buy a new phone every six months like they want.

Like it's been said many times, 'ZTE looks good on paper, but in reality it's all B.S"

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tinybilbo:
My wife's Nexus (which is on cm11) has been working fine for years as as very basic pad with minimal apps (mostly stock and a few games)

She frequently let's it run out of charge despite warnings... and I often have to remove the battery to get to start charging again (which is the only issue really).

It once got stuck in a reboot loop a couple of months ago after recharging, so i went into recovery and wipe the cache partitions and all was fine again...

She let it run out of charge again, so I popped the battery charged it overnight and booted it in the morning, and it got to the lockscreen, froze and rebooted (like the previous time). I tried to enter recovery (TWRP 2.6.0.0) and could'nt - which was a first!

So I reflashed the recovery from fastboot to the latest TWRP (3.02.0) and rebooted into it, except it booted into 2.6.0.0 and not the latest....

I have tried wiping, erasing, formatting, and installing new roms from recovery (both 2.6.0.0 and 3.0.2.0 ~(that I pushed to the device) and fastboot (I tried returning it to stock). The original file system remains intact.... and the reboot loop persists.

I have been able to make a backup to OTG, So I don't care about losing data, I just want to wipe the device and start afresh

It's almost like the filesystem is write protected! nothing seems to destroy it!

Does anyone have any ideas beyond the usual stock recovery and WUG's Nexus 7 Toolkit

One final thing... Holding up whilst booting sometimes gives a black screen and puts the nexus into APX mode (of which I know nothing about!!)

Thanks

Your flash memory has gone bad.... You need a new motherboard... Cost will be roughly $20-$50 on ebay. Fun project that's not too hard, but probably just get a new tablet if it is for someone else....

Sorry for the late reply... and thank you for your suggestions... :)

I did in fact work out that it was, as psiphi, stated bad memory, and ordered another motherboard from ebay - 32gb for $30 delivered... 16gb was about $ 5 less.

Although the Nexus is an old tab now, I just couldn't see it go to waste!

I've installed Nougat (CM14.1) , formatted data & cache partitions to F2FS, disabled journaling on the system (ext4) partition, installed parrotmod and fstrim on it, and it seems very usable... so I'm going to give it to my dad for browsing and email...

Hi guys! I have an Xperia Z3 D6633 running on official Android version 6.0.1 with build number 23.5.a.1.291 rooted.My problem is that almost 5.0 GB of my internal storage is consumed by ".thumbnails" folder which I want to delete. I have searched some solutions and found out that normally people get some free space till these files reappear and in the mean time they can make this space useful but the case is different here. I have tried to delete this folder and all the containing files but even though the folder disappears for some time, I still don't get any free space even for a short time and the files start to reappear after some time. I don't have any Gallery other than the Album app and as it cannot be deleted, I have tried disabling but the problem still remains. I have also tried creating a new folder with the same name but the system would rename it to ".thumbnails 1" and another folder with the name ".thumbnails" would reappear . I had the same problem also with Lollipop on this device. I use FILE KOMMANDER, it is the system app.

Any help is highly appreciated.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dobsgw:
Try MiXplorer from XDA (file commander isnt so good) then delete the .thumbs folder

Try Ccleaner from play store

Try SD Maid from play store

Try clearing data from Settings - apps - Media Storage (all your media will appear to be gone. It is still there but the phone wont see it until you reboot / download and run Media.re.scan from play store)

I wouldn't really know what else to suggest other than a clean install of your ROM even if it is stock as this seems like a bug

Hi, i'm starting this thread by excusing myself for this approximativly english, i'm not really an english man :angel:

I don't really like calling help on forum, but at 00:30, with studies tomorrow, i'm really bored.

So, today at 17:30, i have reboot my OPX, simply reboot, and i'm now on a bootloop... I read a looooooot of thing on internet and i deduce that : My bootloader has relocked himself.

Before this reboot, i was on OxygenOS 3.* with TWRPblu****** and an unlocked bootloader. I can't access to recovery, only to a bootloop or fastboot mode.

I've tried :

- Use fastboot commands to flash recoveries, but nothing happen because i can't unlock the bootloader

- Use the MSMdowloadtool like all guide said, but the problem is there i think. My device aren't recognize as a "Qualcomm ***********" is recognize as "Android" or "One plus bootloader device" (i haven't exact name here). I thinked Windows 10 have the faculty to identify android devices, so i've installed on dual boot windows 7, no more results. (Signed Drivers are disabled)

I have no idea, i need u :crying:

If anyone have ever see the same issue, give me ur solution please :)

I certainly will contact the OnePlusSupport too but i know it's not really a good idea.

I will go to sleep now, i need to go to school tomor... today.
