[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TomBrunson:
another update,

After some more trial and error while aiming for the locking of my phone i'm still stuck.

Both my boot and my recovery are empty it seems (the 0x0 from the image crc) and all the others still have 0xA.....B or what ever value in them

All the writing I do like

C:\tel>htc_fastboot.exe flash recovery recovery_signed.img

sending 'recovery' (30080 KB)... OKAY

writing 'recovery'... OKAY

Execution time is 3(s)

seems to be working but that doesn't change the crc value's nether does it allow me to use the recovery from the hboot menu.

also when I type stuff like htc_fastboot oem rebootRUU it brings me straight back to the bootloader menu, no black screen to do htc_fastboot flash zip rom.zip.

What I didn't try yet is using a SD-card and see if that fixes it (I could put that card in my other phone, write stuff to it and use it in the M8s.

Anybody got any expereance for using a sdcard to flash the device back to stock.

@ this moment I will be kind of happy with anything that advances me a step

I got it to work

You may as well give up.

Android will continue to suck and be a deep state tool.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TomBrunson:
How do you mean give up ?

is there no way arround based on your opinion from what i posted above ?

I Always hoped it was my lack of knowledge that was holding me back in fixing it ...
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kruc Ire:
Ok if you wanna do it like i did you gotta use the sd card. It should work. Call it by its shortened name and relock the phone first. It can take a long time in several stages.

I was a bit down on android since google keeps screwing with it like taking away panoramio and adding miles upon miles of bloat and force resetting my permissions which I believe I have finally found a solution to in m8s.

If you wanna do it you can. Use that same 1.8 GB firmware we can find on the web. And rename it to the m8s required: 0PKVIMG.zip (i am going offa memory but this looks right to me???) and put it in the root of your microSD. The bootloader should be "relocked" anything I forgot? You don't have to reflash the std recovery first unless I forgot

Then once these things are inplace you should see a full flash after bootin ta bootloader.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TomBrunson:
I did those things and placed the file on the SD card ( 0PKVIMG.zip )

When I go to the phone then and run it it gives me the following error:

Device halted due to Large Image update fail!

press <power> to reboot.

I looked into that and seems I need to do a partial flash for that but didn't found more info on that yet.

Also i'm still stuck on the htc_fastboot OEM lock error i'm getting (see above)

Tom
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kruc Ire:
You need to have plenty of space. I have seen large image update fail at some time before. I'll see if I can find my photos from the flash on my m8 (I used the m8 to document the m8s firmware flash). It doesn't have to be "locked", "relocked" is enough
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kruc Ire:
I made that video but if the F'N censors won't let me put up the lyrics of a song they HATE in their pinheads then I won't be posting their garbage they WOULD view.

I'll keep putting up large videos though just to chew up this sh!tty world's resources. If it's a world of creeps it's

Music videos mostly. Ooh how they HATE my beautiful music...and I can hear the little b##ch there in her fuzzy chair. Like she spoke directly into my head. And if it hadn't taken me so long to make a thumbnail she wouldn't have been able to install her trick. Literally FFFF youtube.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TomBrunson:
Is there a different command to Relock as to Lock ?

I couldn't find anything else then htc_fastboot oem lock

Tom
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kruc Ire:
Ok i'm over it. I attached a different (worse) song and reuploaded it. No censorship now.

HTC M8s firmware flash in photos:

[youtube]-NMU-lpO0Ag[/youtube]

Please note I only started making a video because I noticed that time bar on upper right about 15 minutes into the (uninterrupted) flash. So that took a long time and I was concerned about the messed up and overprinted text and made photos during every new screen between the third or fourth at the start (when I caught up with my camera) up till the time of video starting.

So yeah what I am trying to say is it seemed to take very long, with many seemingly false starts and failures. Only by waiting did it finally achieve correctness.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TomBrunson:
thank you for the video

Seems so that it's still the same issue for me as I don't get my phone locked or relocked

i'll keep on looking aint giving up that quick :p
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kruc Ire:
Are you sure you have the correct command? There is a lot of bad info out there. Better get a 2nd source and third for commands. Did you be sure to enable adb bridge in dev options? Can't forget to do that. Go through the entire thing at HTC.dev and do all it says and download their fastboot. Then be sure to have adequate space on phone and storage. You have a nandroid? Then you could try wiping and starting from zero with the flash. This may have been what I done. I definitely did something like that similarly very recently and I think it was cause I was trying the new Los rom just before I gave up on it and decided to do this firmware.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TomBrunson:
When I got the phone it was locked, I then did all the steps to unlock it as I hoped that would be the solution. Those steps did work but it didn't solve the problem. I think wanted to do the RUU thing but therefor the phone needs to be locked or relocked (htc_fastboot oem lock) but hat gives me errors as I posted before.

I'm still in the process of reading as much as possible to find different ways to lock or relock the phone in order to do the RUU update.

Greetings,

Tom

Apologies if this isn't the right place to post this, I'm new here.

So I recently downloaded a new theme, and while I'm not keen on the UI itself, I'm a massive fan of the lockscreen. I'd assumed it was just a gif, but I went into the APK for the wallpaper and it turns out it's a load of .qmg's and an xml to control the animation.

I have neither the tools nor expertise to do anything at all with these files, and I'm hoping someone would be able to help.

I'd post a link to the APK, but I don't have the privileges to do so. You might have to pm me for it.

TL;DR: I need to make a looping animation to keep as a wallpaper from a set of qmg's and an xml and I'm too bone-idle to do it myself.
[One (M7) General] Silentknight101:
Hi guys, well the heading says it all. my phone is an ATT model & i live in srilanka so ive never got any ATT OTA updates. phone is stuck on Android 4.3.

recently started getting random reboots which i walked around by disabling "google play services".

now ive got a wired boot loop issue which happens from time to time. boot loader->recovery->clear cache option dont work. i get a mini M7 pic with a triangular caution/Exclamation sign the moment i hit recovery.

i do love my phone though & im hoping to get a couple of more yrs worth of use. i would like to solve the bootloop issue & upgrade at the same time by going to a Nougat ROM (suggestions welcome, i read AICP is good!!).

if ive got my reading right, i need to do things in the following order:

1- backup EVERYTHIING

status - done

2- Unlock bootloader.

Status - inprogress

im watching this guys vid - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QU7vi388dMk , but his fast boot folder already has the unlock_bin file in it. the vid details a long process via which this file should be gotten by email from the HTCDEV site. anybody know why that is? help!

3- install TRWP recovery.

Status - TBD

4- Flash ROM.

Status - TBD

hoping the collective genius here can help a bloke out.

[One (M7) General] JustElisha:
Note that you need to do a NANDROID backup, and save your storage as bootloader unlock will format the data folder
[One (M7) General] alray:
The Unlock_code.bin will only work on the device it was generated for. You must submit your unlocktoken to htcdev.com to get your Unlock_code.bin:

Create an account at HTCdev.com, then "fastboot oem get_identifier_token", copy/paste your token on htcdev.com and you'll receive your Unlock_code.bin from htc. Then flash it on your phone (fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin) and you're done.

You also probably want to go S-OFF since most recent roms will not work really good on old firmware, if you want to flash a Nougat rom, you probably want to use the latest GPE firmware and for that you'll need S-OFF.
[One (M7) General] Silentknight101:
reading up on the S-off now. at which stage should i attempt this?
[One (M7) General] JustElisha:
Right now, do it before installing a custom ROM. Can you open bootloader and tell us what is your hboot?

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] batfink1:
God, I'm still using my Oneplus 3t, The Oneplus 5 is sitting in its box.

I couldn't be more let down by the Notification led that they should have called the "I CAN BARELY SEE IT LED"

And the dim blue navigation button lights are so dim compared to the Oneplus 3t white ones as well.

Seriously, It has one job...To NOTIFY...what was the point of making it so dim you can't see it in a lit room unless the phone is in your hand.

I've tried Custom Firmware (Resurrection Remix), I've tried Light Flow...Nothing ...That Dim Led is already at 100% and about 1/4 the brightness of the 3t.

Sadly I come from Australia, Not a county Oneplus sells to so no returning for me.

Thats $770 down the drain, I rely heavily on the NOTIFICATION LED (If you're reading this Oneplus...Thats NOTIFICATION...as in NOTIFYING..like, being VISIBLE) :(

It's sad, A notification led is one of the things that really separates us from Iphone users.

Maybe with a firmware update but i doubt it...I have the terrible feeling they're at full brightness...But lets hope
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Rhoban:
I don't mind the capacitive buttons being dim since I turn off lights anyway. But yeah, the notification LED is pretty dim for whatever reason.

I guess the best option for those who rely on notifications is to turn on Ambient Display.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] batfink1:
I actually like the navigation leds being on, I set them to be on as long as the screen is on.

I could live with them, but the notification led... It's like what's next.. A camera that doesn't take pictures, a battery that doesn't charge, a speaker that makes no sound.

It's a NOTIFICATION Led, one job.. To be able to notify you ?*♀️

Using the ElementalX kernel i increased the brightness of the LED. i would say it is more than adequate for my needs at least. Might be worth a try?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] gonsa:
I'm also disappointed by the notification led being so dimm..

But if a kernel can brighten it up, maybe OnePlus can do it too.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] batfink1:
I'd rather a custom OS, right now it's running Resurrection Remix Official, but not many kernels seem compatible with it.

And unlike RR on the Oneplus 3t, I don't feel it's very polisher on the Plus 5.... The Vibration is a bit glitchy, it tends to skip some key presses.. I mean if you press a key numerous times in a row.. Sometimes you'll get no haptic feedback.

I'm currently exploring other firmwares.

I really miss Xposed Framework ?

I'll let you know how I go.

They're almost unbrickable so I'm pretty gungho about flashing ****.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] xda890:
How did you increase the brighness? According to the commit message, the value in the kernel setting can be set between 1% and 100% brighness level of the stock value, ie no way to increase over stock value. Or am I missing something?

I use EX Kernel Manager. Under Misc. there is a section for Notification LED, fade speed, intensity and fade enable/disable. set my intensity to 9 and all is fine for my needs. On par with my 6P
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] xda890:
9 should mean 9% of stock setting, so should be very low.. Must be something I am missing.. ?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Rhoban:
It may have been a typo and he meant 90%.

And perhaps stock isn't set to maximum in the first place?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] robertogl:
Stock is at 50%, but with light manager you can set to 100% without root or kernel. But that doesn't change enough to make the led good.

I have used all possible options, erase data, cache, etc, restart, and it works for me until the play is updated. The only way to use it is to uninstall the play updates, but as soon as it updates it stops working.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] THEHACKER609:
reset and reflash os

First of all you need to do a hard reset of your phone. if your recovery is working then flash a new rom and then a new kernel.

secondly if there is no recovery then connect your phone to pc and flash one via odin. note : if odin does not detect your phone, you need to drain your battery to 0% then connect it to pc then odin should detect it and flash the rom and bootimage asap.

at last if nothing works, you have 2 options :

service centre method or manual method

1. go to service centre and send the phone to repair. they can fix such problems easily even if your phone is rooted because this happened with me a long time ago when my samsung phone got bootlooped and it was rooted with warranty void. But the service centre fixed it for me for free and no objection.

2.MANUAL METHOD : DO AT YOUR OWN RISK!

FOR THIS YOU NEED TO BE GOOD AT HARDWARE.

GO TO GOOGLE AND SEARCH RESET PHONE HARDWARE AND YOU WILL GET THE ANSWER
