[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cytherian:
Nice to see another member here with great appreciation for the M8. Phones like this often get easily dismissed as obsolete tech, but I don't think the M8 lags behind all that badly. It's another story when looking at the M8 over the Evo 3D though! ;)

Side-by-side, the HTC 10 screen looks nicer than the M8. It's brighter, more vibrant colors, and you can tell it has a faster processor. It's not a huge difference, but enough to notice when they're adjacent. But take away the HTC 10, and the M8 starts looking good again. To be blunt, I don't know why people get bent out of shape by bezels. I think they look fine on the M8. And really, the back panel doesn't matter all that much because most people use cases. I could not use my One M8 without one, because it's too slippery and that brushed metal back would get dented/scratched. Being in a case has kept it in excellent shape. I use a translucent TPU case, so you can still see the back a bit while enjoying protection.

Generally the way I operate is to always keep a spare phone as a backup, in case I lose my main phone or run into an issue that I can't easily fix/recover. The spare one is quick and easy to activate, so I don't suffer much down-time. I don't want to be forced to run out to a store and pay top dollar for a new phone. When I misplaced my M8, I reactivated my old Evo 3D. And while it did the job, it was... painful. That thing is just too old now. So I was thinking should I get another M8... or upgrade to an HTC 10. That's when I ran into that battery problem on a gently used HTC 10 that threw my plan in the trash. Given how many people have reported the battery issue, I'm now leery of buying from a reseller that unloads large batches of phones with just minimal testing performed. They're not going to do the 1 hour HTC battery test. And when a seller can't answer your questions well for suffering with English as a 3rd language, it makes it risky.

I checked out Swappa, but didn't see anyone in my immediate area with an HTC 10 for a reasonable price.

I'm in a similar boat as you mate, can't find a legit place to but an m8 or 10 here in South Asia for cheap:(

PLz tell me if u find someone who does international shipping of either of these two.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhrjbhtt0:
Has anyone over here bought any HTC device from aliexpress?

I'm planning on buying an HTC 10 from over there, but don't have any past experiences with any of the sellers over there.

The price seems fine, just north of 250usd.

Any idea anyone might have?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] desu1337:
My m8 had a bad battery after all the years of heavy usage, hundreds/countless drops to all kinds of grounds even fell in water a few times.It looks really really bad from the outside,completely full of ditches and scratches and other strange markings, I even managed to "pull/curl" a kind of sharp edge out on a small spot of the aluminum on the back through a drop.But besides that it was/is shutting down between 40-75% everything was working completely fine,so I really didn't want any other phone but an htc after that proof of ruggedness/solidness either.

I also got a dead m9 here that just one day to the other shut off and completely died over time,not even a led is blinking anymore and it's only lifesign is plugged into a PC where it shows up as a Qualcomm service hub, but all that is a different story,just wanted to mention that experience with HTC.

I lived with that m8 then for quite a time and nearly ended up buying another new/refurbished m8/9/10 but then i found the ZTE axon 7 to be my perfect replacement,as it was the only phone with good sounding/loud front facing speakers and an all aluminum body,also I wanted to have a slightly bigger screen and the other advantages of the zte didn't seem bad either.So I bought a used axon for 150€ and even though it has its own faults, like the buttons, I wouldn't change back to the m8 for my daily,not even with a factory new battery.

Hope that wasn't too much to read through :D
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] high_voltage:
Flash jw 5.4 (the last one based on the A9 port, s-rom), use stock kernel, leave GPS on high accuracy, use it stock = profit. Best smoothness, stability, battery life and android OS for our device. You will enjoy it.

My advice is to wait a little longer, check out U12 and even pixel 3, maybe oneplus 6 (I am notch hater, but maybe you are not).
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gustav30:
I'm thinking of picking up a used M9, just to sort of complete what I think is the perfect trifecta of HTC phones. M7, M8, M9.

Yeah, for camera needs I turn to my V20/V10s, but for aesthetics, I don't think any phone comes close to the M series.

M9 could have been a great phone if they had just used a better sensor and thrown in OIS.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Craig.1975:
7 years old, my HTC M8 is finally starting to fail. Dot-view now mal-functions, and I can't upgrade anything else without a significant decrease in speed.

I am genuinely happy with this phone. The 'dot-view' function was groundbreaking for its time, as was the body armour that supported it.

I am unsure whether to consider another phone, or upgrade to the HTC 12

Hi,

[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] Mr.Chainsaw:
Hello there.

My G5s+ is suggesting a security update. But since I did unlock the bootloader and rooted it with magisk I did not install it.

My question is: What is the best way to update the phone?

Just flash the new stock rom? And where do I get those?

Thanks in advance.
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] Mr.Chainsaw:
Nobody here that can tell me how to upgrade?

Should I just flash the new version if I get it somewhere?
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] crazytech2:
Unlocked bootloader will not affect the OTA installation..!

The reason the OTA-Update fails is that one of the boot, system, logo or recovery partitions are changed.

Magisk modifies the boot image.

On rooted device..OTA may brick the device..so avoid OTA installation..!

Reply your current build Number from about phone..

Do a clean flash.
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] Mr.Chainsaw:
Thats why I did not do it yet. But I still want to do the update somehow.

[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] Chemacky:
Where can I find full firmware versions of the stock rom to flash?

My build version is: NPSS26.116-26-4

As I understand it, there are two new security patches since that version? If I'm flashing one of the newer versions, is it just a case of dirty flashing it normally through twrp? No need to factory reset?
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
If that is the firmware build you need, you could try the firmware here: https://firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Moto G5s Plus/Stock/ but ensure you download the correct firmware. (credit to: https://xdaforums.com/moto-g5s-plus/how-to/xt1804-able-to-lock-bootloader-npss26-t3722572) Also, verify it is the firmware you require and was the latest firmware build on your device - please don't downgrade with stock firmware (else you may hard brick with OTA updates corrupting your bootloader)...

Stock OTA updates, as mentioned above, require fully stock firmware - they will not flash with root, modifications or TWRP (and attempting to flash via TWRP may soft bootloop your device). Thus, you must re-flash the stock firmware - you may be able to save your data by omitting the 'fastboot erase userdata' command and you do not have to re-lock your bootloader. However, I'm not familiar with the G5S Plus and I hope another user can provide you with flashing commands.

I would still recommend you make a backup of your device in TWRP and keep that safe, in case you have to wipe your data for stability.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fonefreakz:
Hi peoples,

I sold my S6 Edge Plus (SM-G928i) phone on eBay. The buyer claimed it was faulty and sent it back.

When I got it back, he had factory reset it, but he had left his Google account on the phone, as well as turned on FRP lock.

I tried to flash it back to the stock Rom, I get this error:

An error has occurred while updating the device software use the emergency recovery in Smart Switch.

I then run Smart Switch and it asks me for a recovery code.

Is there a way I can fix this, or has the eBayer bricked my phone?

Thanks heaps

Dazza
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rehvix:
I would assume there is a block on software altering while FRP lock is tripped. Maybe you could flash TWRP, wipe everything, and *maybe* that would work, but you would end up with tripped knox if it wasn't already tripped.

People may have different reasons to have one or some of the issues above, but I have them all! Plus my bluetooth is not working properly after rolling back to B392 on L04. So, I have to conclude it's risky to update to B393. The root may be this one reported on Android issue tracker:
