Hello everybody!
I updated my HTC One V (Vodafone Romania) last night to software version 2.24.708.2. My phone used to have restart problems(it restarted by itself sometimes during phone calls) , and the update said it had "performance optimization and bug fixes". Where can i find a list of those "fixed bugs" so i can see if my retarting phone issue was addressed ?
Thanks !

i dont think that you can see the changelog for an ota update for your official stock ROM (maybe i am wrong) ..welll usually it notifies you what changes its about to do ,if it does not, you wont know the exact changes it did...
why do even need it?? Just root it

The thought of rooting my phone did came across my mind multiple times, but as i said before, the phone has some restarting issues, and i don't know if the phone itself is broken or it's the software's fault.
If it's a problem with the phone, by rooting it, i will void my warranty(i think), and if it breaks later i won't be able to send it in service.
Anyway, did any of you had the problem? Where the phone restarts itself during or after a phone call?
It becomes annoying, and the problem is, it's not something regular, i mean, the phone could work fine for weeks, or it could restart itself 10 times in a few days. I couldn't find any reason for why this happens . That's why i want to see the changelog...
nope didnt happen to me on stock
send to hTC and see if they can fix it or not
:fingers-crossed:

I keep getting this message on my EVO: the application updater (process.com.android.updater) has stopped please try again. I can not check for software update also, there is nothing when I click on check for software update. Also when I click on get more HTC widgets the phone gets a black screen and reboots it self after 10 seconds.
I was able to do all this things before, this problem started yesterday. I have this rom 4.24.651.1 De-Odexed on my phone since it was posted here. And the phone has been working fine up to yesterday.
I will be happy if any one can help me with this problem.
Thank You
Hello all,
I just received my shiny new HOX yesterday and it was working very well at first, however last night I updated it to the latest firmware (with Sense 4.1) and now it will not connect to the mobile network at all (no bars, won't find any networks when I manually search). I have noticed that it seems to be stuck in airplane mode.
Under airplane mode in the settings page it says "off", then a few seconds later it will say "turning off...", then it will go back to saying "off" and then back to "turning off.." and so on. I think it must be a bug in the firmware because I have tested the sim card in another phone (worked fine), and it was working fine before the update.
The only way to see if it is a bug in the firmware (as far as I am aware) would be to install a different ROM. However, I cannot find any way to install a new ROM (custom or stock) without unlocking the bootloader and therefore voiding the warranty (which I don't want to do in case it turns out to be a hardware issue).
I should also add that I could return the phone, but I would like to leave that as a last resort because I live in the middle of nowhere and trying to post stuff if a pain in the ass (and expensive).
I have also tried both a hard and soft reset, with no luck.
This is my first HTC device so I don't really know what I'm doing (although I have plenty of experience rooting and flashing my S2)
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
same prob
i've the same problem since the last update. hope it will fixed soon.

I'm glad I'm not the person having this problem . Does anyone know if it is definitely a firmware issue? (I might feel more confident about flashing a custom ROM if that's definitely the problem)
Anybody?
Maybe something went wrong with the OTA flash?
First thing HTC will do is flash the RUU to ensure it's back to stock. It will delete all your data, but it's worth a go.
You can use adb backup.
Hello everyone
I have a lenovo vibe p1a42
When i bought this phone i was initially able to update without any problem til build no. S147_151288_ROW. But after that when i received notification of new update available, i downloaded it bt I cannot update it. I tried it several time. Every time it jist takes me to recovery mode, starts updating then at 24% it fails. I tried updating manually. I also tried using Lenovo Smart Assistant. But all of them give same result.
I am unable to uodate any furture. Can u tell me what should i do? I hear that this phone has now MM update too, bt i'm stuck.
Also, my phone has stopped vibrating. No vibration on anything. The vibration does works sometimes, bt again stops working in few min. I dont know whether this is software related or h/w prob. I will take it to service center if the problem doesnt solve on updating the os.

I wanted to try tht but i cannot find a link for s152 version file. I tried contacting lenovo through their official forum, they said bring it to service center. I think i ll just do that only. Since i anyway had to go there for my vibration problem.
BTW Thank you for reply.

I understand your pain.... lenovo OTA updates are very finicky. If you want marshmallow you can straightaway flash that ROM (the latest one is S285).
But please make sure to backup your data since this will definitely wipe all your data (same as factory reset). There is thread in on this forum which gives a fairly easy steps on flashing ROMs folr Vibe P1.
If you want to root your android 6.0 though, thats a different story.
Still have a look here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/vibe-p1/development/qpst-flashing-vibeui-3-1-s272-rom-t3386650
You can flash ROM fairly easily from flashing steps mentioned in above thread. If you feel rooting steps are complex, you can still stay on unrooted rom, at least it will be the latest one.
I got a S7 active from eBay and some apps (not a specific one) sometimes freeze and then the phone reboots to recovery (see photo attached). What could be the cause for this and can it be fixed? I figure maybe a new ROM would help but S7 active so far doesn't have any custom ROM yet. Thanks
PS: Apparently the baseband version was 1APN1. I just went to Software update and update to 2API2, not sure if that helps.

Ok now the phone doesn't seem to reboot to recovery anymore, but still occasionally restart itself. I haven't observed myself the restarting yet, most of the time it happened while charging or I was away, but I know it restarted because the first time after the phone restart, fingerprint won't work and I have to enter PIN.
Anyone experience the restarting issue and can it be fixed? Thanks

Ok I think because this device is quite new and there might not be many people using it, there's less chance that someone has experienced the same issue. I will try to ask in the S7 forum, so mod if possible please close this thread. Thanks
Hi
I've been going back and forth for a couple of days now , thinking if i should post this post or not .
so here it goes , i had a n910p for a couple of months now it was on 4.4.4 when i got it and it worked just fine no problems except some dying battery related problems -phone shuts down when using the flash camera, the phone shuts down without any warning and then i find the battery at 5% when turned back on - ( i didn't know it was a battery problem back then ) , but everything else was just fine .
-i should mention i'm in Jordan not the US so the phone is unlocked sim .
So i wanted to upgrade to Marshmallow maybe the problems got fixed , so in order to upgrade to MM i had to first upgrade to 5.x.x and i did and tested it for a couple of days it had some Freezes but nothing unmanageable , i changed the battery while i was on 5.1.1 there was no problem here no freezes no random shutdowns .
And then i upgraded to MM that's when the problems started to show one after the other , all described here and add to that i had to add and remove the battey 3-4 times in order to turn on the phone.
so i thought to my self it started since i upgraded to MM , maybe if i downgraded to kitkat it'll go away .
i downgraded to 4.4.4 not the stock just to see if it was any better, and it was !!
no freezes no random shutdowns except for one problem if i wanted to shutdown the phone or do a restart i had to remove and add the battery in order to get back on .
so my question is , why is this happening ?
is it a hardware problem and just my luck it started popping out when i started upgrading ?
why is it there is less problems when i downgraded to Kitkat ?
P.S: i upgraded to 5.x.x first by flashing it, because i couldn't upgrade OTA .

This problem is a little confusing and beyond me, but I have to ask and suggest one thing.
Instead of doing OTA, Have you tried to just use odin to flash the Marshmallow firmware you want?

Odin MM like suggested.. Don't do any mods. If it persist, then you might be looking at faulty hardware ie main board.
i just flashed MM after reading your replay , and will test it out.
any tips on what to do with the phone if it's a hardware problem ?
so right at the first boot i had this error shown in the images (attachment)
i removed the battery and restart the phone and it booted correctly , the same problems began to show freezing random restart and it keeps booting to recovery and i had to add and remove the battery a couple of times to turn the phone on .
i returned to stock 5.1.1 apparently it's the most stable thing i can use right now , honestly i'm puzzled on this problem i'm quite sure it's hardware and software somehow and if i send it to a local shop they probably will say "i don't know what seem to be the
problem "
so i'm just going to keep using it until it becomes a replacement parts for his other brothers . :crying:
I'm no expert, but i've poured through dozens, maybe hundreds of pages about this issue. Happened entirely with MM, and most people have thrown their hands up calling it "faulty hardware".
All the accounts, the symptoms, the timing, and the root problem (eMMC error) point to a bug in MM that messes something up when it installs itself- *sometimes*. Those unlucky enough to catch this bug are stuck with it, and end up with essentially a brick or returning it.
Hardware doesn't make sense, not when the issue completely coincides with an update. Unfortunately, I don't know how to completely 100% wipe this device and re-load it from scratch, which is what I think it's gonna take. I don't even know what all *can* be wiped 100% :/

Here is the thing though (I have the same issue). If you remove the battery and put it back in, say 30 seconds later, it won't turn on. If you remove the battery for like 5 minutes and then put back in, it might turn on. I'm talking about the first little vibrate it does when holding the power button to turn on. It really acts like a hardware issue to me. The only work around that has worked for me is an app called wakelock. Using this app and selecting partial partial wake lock makes the phone run completely normal.
What REALLY sucks right now is that I have an OTA update waiting for me and the phone needs to reboot to install. The phone won't reboot. When it turns off, it won't turn back on without removing the battery for 5+ minutes.
IT is the MM Update
Im not an expert or anything but i have the same problem cant update cuz phone has to be restarted i finally had enough of it took it in told them (sprint) to update it thay said thay did but thay didnt. Called and thay couldnt fix it so i said the heck with it and i flashed it still doe the same must use wake lock app wish someone could figuer this out.

Yes having the same issue as well but now even the wakelock app won't keep it. The phone wil stay for maybe an hour, then reboots and will continue to reboot until I take the battery and then start it again afterwards. The length of time the phone stays on varies really and it could be as long as 3 or 4 hours, but it will definitely reboots itself, I cannot got 1 day without this happening. At this point the phone is unusable. I am on another phone at the moment.
I did flash the MM updates (even went back 3 or 4 older versions) using ODIN and same issue. I am debating whether I flash an older Lollipop version and see if that makes a difference.
