[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ratman6161:
My wife has had an M9 since shortly after it came out and has no complaints with it. At the time my concerns were surrounding the Snapdragon 810 issues I was reading about. The big complaints were that they ran hot and hit thermal throttling quickly. After some research I decided not to worry about it. The throttling seemed to happen if you were running a process that was hitting the CPU hard in a sustained way, such as playing a game. but she doesn't play games. My theory is that for her usage (messaging, email, web browsing etc.) the CPU usage would come in short bursts - not sustained. Anyway, she never notices any slowdowns though the phone does get a bit warm. Her battery life is not what I hoped for but then again she is using it pretty much constantly all day long. Her usage is so much different than mine that its hard to compare with my battery life on my Note 5. Don't know anything about root etc on this phone since I don't do that sort of thing on her devices. but its a perfectly good phone - so if you like it and aren't gaming with it, and the price is right, I'd say go for it.

PS: You mention fast charge. Note that my Wife's M9 does support fast charge but the charger that came with the phone does not. The charger that supports fast charge was an extra cost add on...though I found a cheaper one on Amazon.com that works fine.

Thank you [MENTION=2902519]ratman6161[/MENTION] for your reply!

The price is right...the looks are great and i hope that i ill be ok with it...i ll order it on Friday....

I already have a great fast charging charger that i bought from aliexpress....it charges my g3 to 60% in 40 minutes....

So it will do for the m9 too....

then you would definitely be disappointed with M9 camera which has crappy Toshiba cmos sensor.

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stelios....:
Well...i waited for a previous g3 owner!

Have you tried the fixes xda have posted here for the camera?any other camera apps?

You really think its the toshiba sensor that lacks quality?

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toster jp:
M9 sucks, by far the most annoying phone I ever had, everything about this phone is just bad. The only good thing about this phone is that u can buy it fo cheap ( because its so bad ) and for me its quite bulletproof.

Its made by dying company with dying dev support, ****ty camera thats very unstable, chip that heats up like crazy, no fingerprint reader, bad screen to body ratio, mediocre battery life and slow performance. Oh, and modding this phone is huge pain in the ass.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] corrado85:
dont listen to this guy, he is apparently on some P.M.S.

htc m9 overall is not bad. if you are looking to upgrade primarily for camera, good luck. no app can fix the hardware.

but, htc m9 is excellent in everything else.

-I LOVE the audio output:its on par with G3 if not better with the audioboost mod.

-it does NOT heatup unless you have a custom ROM which has custom kernal/ throttle settings. The frame of m9 acts like a heatsink for the phone so it can get warm if you hold it for long extended periods.

-SuperLCD3 is very sharp in colors; much brighter than G3

-the body feel is also ergonomic (not as much as m8 which I also own; m8 is noticeably thicker and sharper edges instead of smooth curve to melt with your palm)

-I still get compliments from friends and strangers asking me which phone it is.

-htc continued support with launch of nougat 7.0

for overall value in the used market, this is a steal if you dont care for camera
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stelios....:
[MENTION=816796]corrado85[/MENTION] i'm close to getting one....

The price for a new is 250euros now...a steal indeed!

I care for the camera but i hope i will find the manual settings that will suit me in the end...

I really wanted to get back to htc for years but their price was far too high...

[MENTION=816796]corrado85[/MENTION]

The truth is that the M9 is a huge disappointment and the best proof for that is the amount of community support, just check M7 or M8 forums. I have paid the full price for this phone knowing it's issues with the hope it won't be so bad, but this phone is a no upgrade from my Nexus 5, it's more of a downgrade. For me the whole phone is just annoying, maybe You don't care about animations and overall smoothness but this phone is just choppy, dropped frame after another dropped frame. My speakers were great but now they are nothing special and even iPhones sound clearer and louder, the screen itself is okay but again blacks are gray and not black, and if anything happen to this phone ohh it's painful to repair.

Big camera lens on the back is another con for me as it's easy to break, and it's just in place where I like to keep my finger so it's always dirty.

The slow motion on this phone is a joke because the resolution is so low that anything that I film I well, useless. All in all the camera experience is very dependent on the conditions once they are not perfect it just bad. Macro photography is another con, it cannot focus on object that are to close, but I remember that on my N5 it wasn't a problem at all.

And the heat, it's all good as long as the phone is cold, but I gets hot in no time and it's starts to perform extremely slow.

And support - have You ever modified this phone? It's a mess compared to Sony, or Nexus devices. S-off, ruu, mid, cid ten versions of the same device...

HTC is dying and honestly M9 is not a good phone or at least I wasn't good for the price I bought it. It's a flagship without flagship features. It just doesn't feel premium at all, and HTC makes things even worse with midrange phones with same design such as M9 prime camera edition.

Buy what suits You best but I'm sure that good old Nexus 5 ( or any other Nexus, really ) would be ten times better.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 350Rocket:
Jeez, I didn't find mine that bad. My girlfriend has had it now since July. It got the nougat update a couple weeks ago. Still works great as far as I know. I had the nexus 5 back when it was newer and I have one again I bought cheap and replaced the screen on. I've been using it as a dash cam lately and realized how much 16gb sucks when I filled up the entire storage with like 9 videos.

The m9 IMO is way nicer than the nexus 5.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 350Rocket:
I did end up picking up an m9 yesterday for $200 in great shape. I plan on selling my gold s6 32gb for $300, I loved the phone but 32gb wasn't enough for me. I already ordered a 128gb card for the m9. I can't really tell the difference in speed between them until I test them side by side like the speed tests on YouTube and the s6 does open apps not in memory a split second quicker.

That said the s6 is on a very good custom ROM based on stock marshmallow, while the m9 is completely stock nougat. If the s6 had expandable storage I'd be keeping it. Also I used the m9 camera to post my s6 for sale and the camera isn't that bad same as my last m9 my girlfriend still has.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1riddim:
I simply love my m9. Been a fan of HTC since Sensation. With the latest updated custom roms it runs amazingly well. Battery is ok for my usage, sometimes i get 2 days with bits of browsing, music over bluetooth and phone calls.

If you have a thing for htc i say go for it.

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] jetsetwilly:
Go to ROMS and kernels in XDA, then Axon 7 Factory Images/Full OTAs

And click on the link to download from mega. Download b13. Unzip and copy the update.zip file to the root of your sd. Then go to updates on your phone and follow it through.

Just done it on mine and it's a massive improvement. Especially on the camera.

I'm struggling to get this to work. When you open mega (via phone link) do you select download to external drive? I've tried that and when you go to unzip it just stays at 0%. If you download to phone and then to copy to SD you cannot do this either, 'phone is busy' message.

Help please I just want my phoned back to stock
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] TeutonJon78:
I think Mega has a app that might work better on a phone -- they use a kind of a janky client. The only reason I used it for the repo is because they give 50 GB for free. I don't really trust their privacy, so I only put up stock files there and the like. You might want to try using it from a computer. You have to get the update file inside the download file anyway.

I did it on my laptop. I used Chrome browser to download. Once downloaded, unzip the update.zip file to your desktop.

Then plug in your phone to your puter and copy it to your SD card - the root of your SD card.

Once copied, disconnect from your PC and go to settings, update on your phone and there should be recognition of the update.zip

[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] Schucha:
Hello together my problem is that i cannot change my dns ip for funkyhuawei.com in my router.

The only possible thing is that i take my android phone and make a hotspot with dns change and connect with a third device (huawei mate 9) But i dont have a data flatrate for my phone.

So my question is:

Is it possible to extend an existing WIFI Network with android phone, and then change the dns in the android phone, and then connect with a third device to my android phone ???

So that i have an "emulated" changed wifi network

Please help !!!
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] Governa:
You might be able to pull it off but instead why don't you consider:

- Buy/borrow an old dd-wrt router and have it sit in the middle of your existing router and your Mate 9 ;

- Visit a friend and see if his router allows DNS changes at the router level ;

- Buy a one off pay&go SIM with enough data for what you want to achieve ;

- Use the HiSuite method.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] Schucha:
hello thanks for the answer, but it is not very helpful.

its not possible. my router is fixed with my internet connection from the provider. i cannot connect a second router to my "provider router". it is locked from provider.

i dont want to pay for a sim card... if i want to download 2 times i have to buy data package again or a second sim, so it dont make sense...

please give me other solutions.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] Governa:
What about the HiSuite method? Then you would only need to change the DNS on your computer's network settings. Worked for me.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] Schucha:
it is not possible when my phone is "bricked" i cannot boot into system.

so i cannot use hisuite...
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] Governa:
How is this related to the topic??
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] Governa:
Is this cable/xdsl or a 4G modem? If it has spare LAN ports I don't see why you wouldn't be able to plug a cheap router. What did they lock exactly?

Alternatively, do all your friends and family use the same provider? Can't you borrow some internet time from someone with a less restrictive modem/router?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] GuestD2151:
Hey everyone,

recently my SC-02h (Jap Docomo version) hard-bricked and has no way to recover besides JTAG or motherboard replacement.

This made me think of an experiment.

Can you replace any motherboard (which includes all chips and the storage) with another.

I ordered the g935FD dual sim version with the Exynos chip, this compared to my QC single sim version which is currently bricked.

Hopefully within the next few days I'll receive the motherboard and start the replacement process (I will probable film it) to see if it works.

If so, anyone could replace their motherboard by a new one that is unlocked or has a different chipset.

Please discuss here if you're also interested in changing your own mobo with another.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] lyriquidperfection:
Can't see why it won't work as the motherboard is what determines the model. Just make sure you order up a dual SIM tray too.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] the_scotsman:
Motherboards from different chipsets *may* have different connections on how things wire up. I'm not saying they do, I'm just thinking out loud. I'd only buy a replacement motherboard from the same variant.

And good luck finding a new motherboard. At the price they sell for, you'd be better off buying a whole new phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] dogredwing1:
Would like to see how this goes. Please record the process.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] GuestD2151:
Yea I ordered that one, although I thought the tray looks the same (bottom part), so until my new one arrives I'll use the older one.

I checked the connections and they are the same, the only thing that differs is the sim holder and the chipset.

Also a new phone (unlocked) costs at least 2,5times more (live in Japan).

I'll record it on video as soon as it arrives, also the process of taking it out and replacing it completely. So if it ends up in failure you can all see it.

Unless the other components (camera, vibrator motor, various sensors, OLED Panel etc.) don't differ in the way they talk to the mainboard, I don't see why it shouldn't work. As others have said, I'd really love to see how it'll work out for you. So, thanks for sharing =)

Was interesting to watch, however you only tried powering on twice and quit?

Connecting a charger had no effect?

Unless the board your received was dead to begin with.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] nitrous²:
Can you share the link of where you bought the motherboard? It might be that you bought a blank motherboard. In that case you want it to be flashed with the correct IMEI and partition (table?). AFAIK the IMEI has to be that of your previous phone since you can't just "create" a new IMEI. Don't even want to get into the legal repercussions but here's a sneak peak; in some countries it's a criminal offence to alter an IMEI or even have tools to alter IMEI. Don't quote me on this and I'm asking the community to correct me. If the motherboard comes from a previously active device, it should have its own IMEI and none of what I said before matters.

Whatever, none of that necessarily explain why it didn't boot up. Have you tried charging and plugging it to a PC? If it isn't dead, your PC should at least detect A device.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] GuestD2151:
Well I tried a few times after that and after letting it on a charger, still no response.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/MAIN-MOTHER.../182310990269?ssPageName=ADME:X:RRNTB:NL:3160

It should be one with an IMEI how else can it be unlocked.

I tried plugging it in as well, but my PC doesn't recognise it at all.

I've ordered a different one this time, this motherboard was also slightly different from the one I had (2 cables instead of 3) so it might be incompatible.

I ordered this one now: https://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/0.html?orderId=82116420384467&productId=32737224430

I am also going to try swapping motherboards. How did yours work out?

Hi [MENTION=4264035]totalvamp[/MENTION],

I am going to try swapping out a good motherboard from a banged up sprint G930P phone with a clean IMEI into a clean, whole, G930X demo model that I picked up cheap on Ebay.

The "X" demo phones work on WIFI only. I understand that the "X" motherboards are missing the cellular radios, which is why I am trying this swap -- it should be far easier and less costly than doing a full screen&LCD replacement, which requires tearing down the entire phone, and costs about $150. Hopefullly, I will just have to remove the back, the QI receiver and I think the camera, and I'll get access to the motherboard.

My hope is that all the rest of the parts are present -- we'll see how it goes.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Ran into a major issue swapping motherboards with the LDU model....

Well, my first attempt didn't work out the way I had hoped.

Rather than post the results on multiple threads, here's a link to a new thread I started that documents the whole saga: starting with the reason I attempted this, the research done, the models purchased, the actual results from the attempt that documents what is different between the LDUs and their fully functional counterparts and the difficulties encountered, the alternative swap that was performed successfully, and some parting thoughts.

Here's the title and link to the post:

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] dMonsta86:
Almost impossible, but possible. I bricked one G930P by flashing the emmc_appsboot and boot partitions from a combination firmware (same binary, same model, horrible results). Flashing just those two partitions leaves it saying SBL error. No download mode, no recovery, no samsung logo, no hope.

On previous models/firmwares this is how technicians remove FRP. The combination firmware sboot (emmc_appsboot is how its labeled now) allows z3x to flash userdata/frp partition in download mode without security checks, and the combo firmware's boot enables adb. Samsung fudged it up so that if you flash it like that now, it can brick the phone.

It is actually easier to brick the S7 than any of its predecessors.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] kb1afu:
True Statement... S7 is the easiest to brick. LOL I'm not sure why someone would ever say its nearly impossible to brick. the combo flash is a S7 death sentence. I went thru the same process you described and bricked a sprint S7 to SBL error. I had it in qualcomm mode for a short while using a homemade USB Jig cable but never could get it to accept and process the flash file being downloaded to it, however the jig method no longer works. I'm not motivated enough to try the jtag method because I have no guarantee it will work. no hope.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sovrce:
It's nothing that I can't live with, but whenever I slide my phone open (or closed) there'll be a .5s "lag" or hiccup. I'm wondering if there are any upgrades, new ROMs, registry edits etc that can fix this. I'm on Alltel running ROM v2.14, radio 1.4. Any tips or pointers are appreciated, thank you.

Check out the titan subsection and look at DCD's 1.67 ROM. Great Rom. I use it and no complaints. The stock Sprint ROM was horrible.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sovrce:
Does it matter that I bought it from Alltel and not Sprint?

Also, and this is really the reason I'm afraid of doing anything with ROMs, is it *really* hard to get everything back to normal after a ROM upgrade? From what I understand, **EVERYTHING** is reset, back to factory settings. Is there a quick and easy way to take everrrrything from my Titan and put it in a folder on my desktop somewhere?
