[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HamzaSheikh:
Hey everyone!

I just got HTC M8 from a friend, and figured out it is a demo unit. It comes with a demo app, which I am unable to get rid off. It was firstly rooted and mistakenly I removed the internal storage. After all the mayhem, researching for hours on this forum, I am finally able to get my device back running but still the demo app is there. I am unable to make any changes in developer options or through control center. I am new to all modding, HTC, Android and custom / stock roms.

I have few questions after reading a lot. After accidentally deleting the OS, and wiping internal memory - I was able to get it back, but now wants to run a custom ROM on it but not sure if I am able to do it with current status of my device.

Information about device:

HBoot: 3.16.000

S-ON

HTC__002

Unlocked Bootloader

TWRP installed (but throws error whenever I try flashing a zip file)

The question: Can I install a custom rom without getting S-OFF and if yes, which custom ROM can I use on my device? I understand there is some limitation to HBoot version, but I am unable to figure out how to update it to latest version. I would like to update my device from Android Kitkat to Marshmallow or some custom ROM which doesn't have a demo app.

P.S: A noob!

Update:

After reading lots of threads, I finally bought Sunshine license and activated S-OFF, now, I am with SuperCID 11111111 on my demo unit. Now, I want know about which Custom ROM I can run, and how can I update my Hboot to latest version?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hero_elmehrik22:
You can use this ROM

Follow the directions there and you will be all right.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Might help, if you tell us what error message TWRP gives you.

Hboot version is too old to flash most ROMs. Also, such an old hboot version, is not compatible with many TWRP versions (might be the reason zip won't flash in TWRP).

What TWRP version?

Do fastboot getvar all, and post the result (delete IMEI and serial number before posting).

I believe [MENTION=830797]ckpv5[/MENTION] knows some about how to get the demo versions working or modded. The demo versions pops up infrequently enough, I can't remember the exact details.

---------- Post added at 03:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:38 PM ----------

He says TWRP gives an error flashing zips. So how is he supposed to install that ROM?

Most likely, his Hboot version is too old to support that ROM.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HamzaSheikh:
Yes, Hboot version is too old. I had a long fight with getting it restored. I had to try every other TWRP version and suddenly TWRP 2.8.0.0 worked for me!

Here is the output from getvar all:

Problem I face:

- Current TWRP is old, I am unable to make most out of it. (v2.8.0.0)

- Hboot is like hanging in stone age, I need to update it - but I have a demo unit (it comes with annoying demo app!)

- I want to run Custom ROM or at least a newer Android version.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
You should be able to disable the demo app, using the "alternative method" indicated in the following post: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=59735868&postcount=10

You can update to a newer version using the RUU and instructions on the following post. You will need to relock the bootloader in order to RUU: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64926626&postcount=6

Be aware that RUU will wipe all data on the phone! Again, you will need to disable the demo app if you intend to stay on the Marshmallow "stock" ROM.

Updating to newer version (Marshmallow) by RUU, will also update the hboot, and other firmware (radio, WiFi, etc.). So after that you

should

be able to use the current version TWRP (3.1) and the current custom ROMs. Again, I'm not 100% knowledgeable on the demo model. But I don't see how the demo version CID (which is what triggers the demo app) would prevent you from doing the above. Especially if you disable the demo app, or flash a custom ROM (non-Sense) that doesn't have the demo app to begin with.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HamzaSheikh:
Thanks [MENTION=660462]redpoint73[/MENTION] for the help. Here is an update:

I finally able to get rid of demo app using SuperCID - means, now I have S-OFF device. I used Sunshine apk. Now I would like to update my device to latest Android (Marshmallow) - so should I follow the instructions on the thread you pointed me or is there something else I can try instead of locking the bootloader again?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HamzaSheikh:
Meanwhile, I tried following the details on thread and got myself stuck on error:

FAILED (remote: 32 header error)

Whenever I try to flash the RUU, it gives this error!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
1. No need to relock bootloader as you already S-Off your device

2. You got error because you don't use htc_fastboot as in the instructions.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HamzaSheikh:
Lots of love man! I finally got it. It worked like a charm through HTC_fastboot.exe. I was on macOS earlier and tried flashing ruu.zip through it, but after your message. I tried on Windows with HTC fastboot and wow!

I did a small mess and eventually relocked my bootloader! No issues with that, I can re-unlock it!

Thanks [MENTION=830797]ckpv5[/MENTION] for the final tip, and lots of love for [MENTION=660462]redpoint73[/MENTION] for pointing me at right direction! :cowboy:

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Honest mistake. Relocking the bootloader is mandatory to run an RUU with s-on. So it's easy to miss the fact that the requirement (to relock the bootloader to RUU) is bypassed with s-off.

As you said, you can always unlock the bootloader again, if you want to install custom recovery, root, flash custom ROM, etc. Alternately, if you want to stay stock with no root, you can just leave it relocked.

You're very welcome. I wasn't sure if you wanted to pay for sunshine, so that is why I was suggesting some possible solutions with s-on. But glad to have pointed you in the right direction, regardless.

That is a very open-ended and subjective question. It's completely up to your preference, if you want to do any more mods. You can try custom ROMs, root, custom kernels, and much more. There really isn't much limit on what you can try.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active Questions & Answers] CFoote:
Hey All,

Are we now in the back of the line since the S8 came out? The last "security patch level" I have is August 1st, which actually is causing a lot of lag (July's patches really sped things up for me).

Has anyone received a more recent update? I have a feeling with the S8 now being out, we may be seeing quarterly updates instead of monthly updates.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active Questions & Answers] staffeyx:
Yeah August is still the latest update. I don't think lag is normal after an update - consider backing up your data and performing a factory reset if you're having problems.

https://xdaforums.com/xperia-xz1-compact/help/volte-tmo-fingerprint-sensor-t3666387

Basically for the XZ1C, if you start on a non-US ROM, you can flash a OEM*****.sin file from the US rom and get TMo VoLTE and WiFi calling enabled, and retain the fingerprint sensor. I realize they're on 8.0, and we don't have an officially approved US version for TMo VoLTE, so may be different for us on 7.1.1, but anyone know if it may be possible to use this method to get TMo stuff working on an XC? Maybe adding the applicable lines of code to a file?

[Samsung Gear S2] hotzet:
Hi everyone,

I've been having an issue off and on for months and it's really starting to drive me crazy. I've got a Gear S2 Classic with 3G and a Google Pixel on Android O.

At random intervals when the Gear S2 is connected, the phone gets confused as to what to do with audio - If I try making a voice call using my handset, no audio comes from the phone OR from my watch. The same happens if I receive a call and I try answering on the handset - it'll connect, but I can't hear audio, and the other party can't hear me.

At the same time, audio will play out of my phone - but not out of a wired headset if I plug one in.

It's certainly related to the Gear S2 - if I remove the Gear S2 plugins from my phone and restart, everything works fine, including Bluetooth headsets - but I can't, for the life of me, come up with a solution to the problem.

Restarting the phone in safe mode also tends to do the trick, but only as long as the Gear's not connected.

Has anyone else experienced this?

If your phone already rooted, you can change it manually using file explorer.

That's what I do with my phone.

Just navigate to system/fonts and replace all the files listed below to change the font including clock, notification panel, etc. Set the permission to rw-r-r

AndroidClock

DroidSans-Bold

DroidSans

Roboto-Black

Roboto-BlackItalic

Roboto-Bold

Roboto-BoldItalic

Roboto-Italic

Roboto-Light

Roboto-Thin

Roboto-ThinItalic

RobotoCondensed-Bold

RobotoCondensed-BoldItalic

RobotoCondensed-Italic

RobotoCondensed-Light

RobotoCondensed-LightItalic

RobotoCondensed-Regular

Backup all your files and fonts first in case of something happens, and make sure the font weight are same before you trying to replace it. (i.e replace Roboto-Bold with Bold font).

I'm not responsible if your device bootloop or softbrick.
