[Desire 626 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheCod3r17:
Hi all,

This is my first post so if something is wrong please let me know.

So a few months ago I wanted to root my HTC Desire 626 but struggled due to KingRoot not supporting my phone, and there not being many guides online. I unlocked my bootloader via HTCDev and eventually gave up on the rest of it (I'm a Windows guy!).

2 days ago I installed CM Launcher 3D Pro (which I paid around $5 for on Google Play). After noticing the app was using too much CPU I removed the app and went back to my original Sense Home launcher. Later that day my battery died and when I charged the device and switched it back on everything went very bad, very quickly.

I had constant "xxxxx has stopped working unexpectedly" errors which mainly related to Google apps, such as Google Play, Calendar etc. I downloaded as many Google APKs as I could find for the apps that were throwing errors and copied them to install to my device manually. This seemed to fix a lot of the problems and I no longer get any error dialogs show up on the phone.

However now Google Play will not load (at all, it just has a white screen). Google Maps doesn't load either, and I get a constant notification telling me to update Google Play Services, with a side note saying Google Play Services won't run unless I update to the latest version. That would be fine if I could actually get to Google Play to update the thing :( As I said Google Play will not load up at all. Hence now I can't install anything from the play store (using the browser version to send the app to my device doesn't work either).

I've tried running recovery both via entering the bootloader and using Settings > Backup and reset > Reset phone and nothing works. Using settings doesn't respond when I tap OK, it just goes back to the previous screen, and using the bootloader just hangs on the HTC splash logo until I perform a hard reboot (holding the power button for 30 seconds).

Also Google Sync doesn't work, and when I try to remove my Google account or add a new account it doesn't work either.

What I need is a way to return to stock, the RUU files for my particular device via HTC don't work either, and in bootloader mode I don't see any options (either via fastboot or HBoot) to install a rom from a zip file, so I can't grab the rom zip file from a RUU by copying it from the temp directory on Windows. The reason I think the RUU files don't work is because my phone doesn't have a particular provider. I purchased the phone from Littlewoods here in the UK which was sim free (unlocked).

Is there anyone who has a stock rom and a way I can install it via ADB or Fastboot? I know I can flash the recovery via Fastboot with "fastboot flash recovery myfile.img" but when I try that with any recovery file the recovery still just hangs when I try to use it.

Any help is appreciated (before I take a hammer to it or use it as a YouTube experiment with liquid nitrogen or something).

Thanks in advance.

This is the 2nd time recently I am facing this problem.

Each contact is repeated for 10 times in my phone contacts (last time it was 50 times each). Can't even delete them, there is a option to hide 1 contact at a time that too manually.

I deleted all the contacts from installed application> contacts storage>clear data.

Hi I have search all over for about a month and can't find anything to make this phone what I want so wanted to see if maybe someone could steer me in the right direction. I am very much into all of this and wouldn't mind going to next lol.... If someone out there could maybe help me to find what I need to make my own twrp for this phone and advice on how to come up with root and bootloader unlock sounds like a lot to ask but I think this phone has awesome potential if myself or someone could take the time to figure all this out...

I bought the Grand X Max 2 & used it briefly as my main phone, I bought it as a temporary phone to hold me off until I could get the S8+, I still own the phone & still use it when home to keep from over working my S8+, I keep my old phones & old tablets use them for somethings to minimize the wear & tear on my new good expensive phone & tablets processors, anyways so I still use the Grand X Max 2, it's actually pretty good phone, the ZTE Z Max & the ZTE Grand X Max & Grand X Max 2 were all great fast smooth running phones, especially for their price tag, I found all kinds of hacks & mods for the Z Max, I didn't find any for the 1st generation Grand X Max Plus or it's successor the Grand X Max 2, I found this extremely frustrating.

I also have a Straight Talk Samsung Galaxy S6 SM-907VL that I bought as a temporary phone & I couldn't find anything tips or tricks or hacks or mods on that specific S6 model, I couldn't believe that there was nothing on a Samsung S line phone, now I will only buy phones from Verizon or AT&T or unlocked phones straight from the companies website, my preference is unlocked phone but if I come across a real good deal then I will take it.

[LG K10 Questions & Answers] toblewan:
Is there any way to install root? I tried for an hour researching on the internet on how to root this device on this ROM for this device.

I tried to install KingRoot and root with that: my device has ran slower but no.

I tried with some one-click root apps for Windows: still no.

I tried to use some methods online with cmd to root it: nope.

:eek:

What now? One of the devs for this device said that I needed to install MM with special KeyMaster files for installing LOS or RR. Now how can I root?

I really wanted to taste the feel of installing a fresh custom ROM...but that's not happening.

If you could help, I would appreciate it!
[LG K10 Questions & Answers] Professor Woland:
Requirements for installing custom is not root, you don't need root for that, you need unlocked bootloader and working TWRP recovery, and also you need to be on marshmallow firmware but you don't need root.

[LG K10 Questions & Answers] toblewan:
WOW!

I have never had such luck as I had today. I succesfully unlocked the bootloader and flashed TWRP using Linux and with PyUSB. Now going to recharge my phone and going to install... both ROMS and going to see which is the best. Also, can you use the backup program on the TWRP to backup files or I can just use my Google account and backup everything?
[LG K10 Questions & Answers] pvineeth97:
You can use both for backup.
[LG K10 Questions & Answers] toblewan:
Thanks! What about the IMEI number? Now that I searched a little bit on the internet on what to do before installing a custom ROM, it said to backup my IMEI folder called ''efs'' which I can't find in my root directory. And since you have experience with the K10 models, does the LOS or RR touch on the efs folder?
[LG K10 Questions & Answers] toblewan:
Apparently, the USB debugging option does not work. When I connect the device onto the pc, it doesn't recognize the device. I reinstalled the drivers and still it doesn't work. I'm going to install the MM again and see if it will work

EDIT: It was quick but I did it and USB debugging is working
[LG K10 Questions & Answers] pvineeth97:
It's the modemst1 & modemst2 partitions which contains your IMEI number. Nothing will happen to them when you install "Custom ROMs".
[LG K10 Questions & Answers] toblewan:
But what about if the IMEI numbers corrupt and it happens, can you give me the location so that I can copy the folder... I'm sorry, partitions

Actially Forget what I said. Sometimes I don't know to explain what I want to say
[LG K10 Questions & Answers] toblewan:
Oh, and also, can you recommend the best app for backing up every single thing in my phone (messages, phone log) And , can you just copy all files from my stock ROM to the custom ROM? Like copy and paste?:)

Ok, RR is installed and Open Gapps, everything is working. Thanks for the help!!!

[HTC Desire Eye] Q72:
Only H+ speeds and unable to access Google acct after installing 7.12 on Desire Eye

After installing Android 7.12 on the HTC Desire Eye, I am only getting H+ mobile data speeds instead of my former 4g LTE even after changing the APN settings to what I was using previously. Are the APN settings different on Android 7.12 for T-Mobile? I notice there are more options then there was on the stock ROM. I am also unable to access my Google account after updating though am entering my current password correctly. Has anyone else had a problem like this after installing this ROM? Any suggestions much appreciated.

Note:

After rescanning for available networks and re-selecting T-Mobile, I am now getting LTE, no APN changes were needed. Google account problems may have been due to timing out on a bad connection, both are working now.

Has bugs. Use Tark's twrp from RR rom forum it's the most stable.

Issues as in?

---------- Post added at 08:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:57 AM ----------

Sir, i tried the rom but rr has some bugs.such as over heating,sudden app closing, problems with floating window (messenger) etc.
[HTC Desire Eye] TahirZX:
Those issues are only with latest builds because of a kernel rebase. U have to install 20170905 5.8.4 build of RR and always use Tark's recovery to flash RR rom. It has zero bugs. I'm using it with no issues at all. Clean install it and u won't be having any of those issues.
[HTC Desire Eye] challenger07:
Thanks I assume you mean this one: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634770683

I will give it a try.
[HTC Desire Eye] challenger07:
The only issues I have noticed with the AOSP ROM that I used in my guide are

1. A couple of times per month the whole phone will crash and I have to reboot.

2. Luna (Google launcher) goes slow sometimes and I've fixed the issue by deleting luna cache and data but it seems to return after a few weeks usage. I may return to the standard Google launcher.

Not sure if either is related to the ROM. Otherwise the ROM is very stable. But I've not tried the RR Rom so far.
[HTC Desire Eye] TahirZX:
No such issues on RR. Also it's smooth and lots of customization.
[HTC Desire Eye] challenger07:
I installed Tark's TWRP and was going to try his ROM but when I boot into TWRP (3.1.1.0) I get the following error message and TWRP doesn't see the SD card where the ROM is. Looking on google but not clear what the issue is. Any suggestions?

Immediately after I enter the encryption password "Failed to mount /external_sd" repeated 3 times

When I go into the Mount option it says Micro SDCard (0 MB) and you cannot select

Micro SDCard

USB-OTG

SD-EXT

If I select storage I get

Micro SDCard (0MB)

USB-OTG(0MB)

Hopefully u won't face sd issue on this one.

Problem is twrp doesn't recognize extFat and one other format I can't remember now but it recognizes ext4 and fat32 only just try this twrp.

And flash 20170905 build cuz it has no bugs. [MENTION=8505410]challenger07[/MENTION]
[HTC Desire Eye] challenger07:
Thank you for the quick reply. I did try the new TWRP you sent but it was the same. I then tried Arun's TWRP 3.1.1 https://xdaforums.com/dev...t/dl/?id=24849 which seems to be fine. I know you said there were issues with it but at least it sees the SD card. I've run out of time to swap the ROM will have to do that another day but wanted to know why you suggest the one from early September. When I look at the change log it would imply that the November release now has all the fixes in?

RR-N-v5.8.5-20171111-eyeul-Unofficial.zip

Thanks
[HTC Desire Eye] TahirZX:
1st off big warning. Do not use arun's twrp to flash the rom. It will boot loop or not install the rom.

What u can do is format ur SD in a different format that is recognized by Tark's twrp like ext4 or fat32.

2nd why I suggested 20170905 and not 20171111 is cuz 20171111 is build after the kernel rebase and cause of that there is issues with the front camera. This all is already extensively discussed in HTC desire eye telegram group.

Basically, on 20171111 front camera lacks focus and front flash. Even if it's on latest security patch. U can fix the camera issue by flashing a custom boot img but then the Bluetooth would stop working so both are a loss of functionality.

On 20170905 has no such camera issues and everything works fine as it's the build before the kernel rebase.

If u r not too big on selfies then ya go with 20171111

If u want best of everything except latest security patch go with 20170905
[HTC Desire Eye] challenger07:
Got it thanks for the detailed reply. I think the issue may be that I am using a 64GB SD card and 32GB seems to be the max for FAT so I can try again with a smaller SD card. Although it worked fine for me, do I assume you are also concerned about Arun's 3.1.0 TWRP that I used in my last build?
[HTC Desire Eye] TahirZX:
U can format 64gb card to ext4 format it will work with Tark's recovery.

Arun's twrp will cause bootloop/install issues if u use it to flash Tark's RR
[HTC Desire Eye] challenger07:
I installed a 32GB sd card and Tark's recovery TWRP 3.1.1 now works fine. I flashed the RR 09052017 and used the Gapps Aroma to install GAPPS. There are so many selections in Aroma that it was hard to know what I needed. All I want is the absolute minimum that I cannot install through play store, then I can just use play store to add or delete apps from there and the backup will restore the apps I previously had installed. I do need use outlook365 so need exchange services if I use Gmail, though I have been using outlook recently. My recommendation would be to stick with Micro or Nano GAPPS and not be faced with masses of choices, I spent several minutes checking them and still managed to install an extra stock browser that I didn't want and I cannot remove it without reloading GAPPS again. I'll use the new ROM now and report back if I find it better or worse than the AOSP 7.1.2. that I used in my guide.
[HTC Desire Eye] crispwind:
Bootloop issue

I tried following all the steps mentioned in the thread and flashed the custom rom into HTC Desire EYE. The only thing I did differently is, instead of NANO, I chose MINI for GAPPS. But, it now went into a boot loop. Can you please suggest what I can do next to fix this?
[HTC Desire Eye] challenger07:
I have read about this I think it depends what combination of ROM and Recovery you are using. For the AOSP ROM I used ARUN's TWRP which worked fine. For the RR ROM you need to use TARK's TWRP.

The latest Arun TWRP : https://xdaforums.com/desire-eye/development/twrp-3-2-1-0-htc-desire-eye-t3721781

The link to Tark's TWRP that I used goes to 404, Tahir posted this version which should work; https://www.dropbox.com/s/fn8s3z6m7ttb3zk/5_6152376089848053798.img?dl=0

Also do ensure you have followed the process to reset/wipe to ensure you have a clear system to start.
[HTC Desire Eye] crispwind:
Thanks a lot for the new insights. I am a noob in flashing roms. Still learning. I will try out your suggestion. Right now I ended up installing RR. As you suggested I used TARK's Recovery for RR and the installation worked. I will check how stable it is.

On a different note, all the HTC Desire Eye ROMs I used until now crashes and reboots when Cellular data / Wifi is enabled. Do you have any suggestions on what to do to fix it or any particular ROMs which will work?
[HTC Desire Eye] challenger07:
I don't have any ideas about the crashes. I have tried the AOSP and RR roms and both are pretty stable. The only issue I find with both of them is that the bluetooth connection with randomly died and then restart 30-60 seconds later.
[HTC Desire Eye] TahirZX:
So such issue on my end with RR 20170905. I play hour long ppsspp roms with Bluetooth controller and I use Bluetooth headset when I jog usually around half an hour. No connection issue on my end here.

[HTC Desire Eye] challenger07:
As I just installed Android 10, I have updated the instructions if anyone needs a step by step guide.

Create a folder on the PC for all the downloads and files

Download phone driver I googled and downloaded HTC Mobile Driver 4.17

Download ADB/Fastboot I found 15-second-ADB Installer 1.4.3

This was easier than getting the Google SDK and Java I did last time.

I updated TWRP first. So I downloaded the latest 3.4 version to my PC and named it recovery.img

Then connected the phone to the PC and booted the phone into fastboot (from power off press sound down and power button) Then select fastboot.

From the PC I used the command prompt from the folder I had installed ADB and typed

Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Fastboot reboot

(the phone should reboot)

Then download the ROM and Gapps (I used Nano) to the phone SD card. You need to enable file transfer over USB vs just charging so the phone shows in windows explorer.

Check the phone’s backed up, you have all your photos etc.

Remove encryption from the phone (I didn’t do this but then I hit issues later)

Factory Reset in settings under Backup and Reset (I didn’t do this but then I hit issues later)

Shutdown the phone and reboot into Recovery

BACKUP the current operating system using TWRP. If something goes wrong you can restore. I rebooted and copied the backups from the SDcard to my PC just in case.

Wipe using TWRP (Swipe to Factory Reset)

Advanced wipe of the Systems Partition.

If you failed to remove encryption, then you will need to format data

Install: select the sd card and the ROM.zip

Install: select the sd card and the gapps.zip

Wipe Dalvik Cache

Reboot

Donate to the developer of your new ROM at the end when it works.
