Rom Manager Problem ....

Hey guys .. i was wondering if anybody has a solution or is going through the same situation as with me , problem is that when i run Rom manager its says Superuser not found and blah i downloaded the superuser exactly where it tells me to do so but again the same error :/
And another major problem is when i click on anything in rom manager its starts downloading latest CWM and when the download finishes following error appears ' an error occurred while attempting to run privilaged commands ' god its too frustrating for me :/
I'll be really grateful if any ANGEL tells the solution

Does Superuser.apk report any issues with your SU binary? The complaints from ROM Manager make it sound as though your system isn't properly rooted.

Wish I did, I've yet to get my hands on one of these new Frankenstein devices that HTC has released recently. I don't know what it is that they changed but, it hasn't been kind to the users who own them. Sadly until it's all sorted you're probably stuck with stock software. I know some of the other users I've spoken with have gotten the new HTC bootloader and unlocked that and managed to get some custom and rooted roms onto the device but, this isn't a easy task. This thread contains one of the current solutions for getting around the display issue to flash a custom ROM.

Haha, I understand you must be a Newbie.
Well, don't worry. I'll make a guide for you.
1. Connect your phone to pc and use Nokia Manager to install G-Apps.
2. Once you get the message you have seen in the screenshot, just click okay,
3. Now rest of the process will be done by the phone. Now, if you'll look at your phone screen, it will be booted into something called Team Win Recovery Project.
4. Once you're there, You need to Choose Mount and then System.
5. When youre done, the back button in the bottom will take you back.
6. Now choose Flash and you'll see a zip file in your sd card named Super or SU something. Choose that. And It will flash.
7. You have completed the whole process. Go back and choose Reboot and then System.
8. Dont panic if you get stuck on choosing to reboot into system. Its a bug in the recovery. Simply, pull out the battery, put it in again and power on the device. You will boot into system and G-Apps will be there.
If you still get any problem, Reply and ask. Or PM me even. I'll be here.

common guyz use thsame nokiaX manager to root it usin superSU

search for nokia xl windows drivers 1st. or when ur fone is connected to pc, use ur device manager. to search for the unknow device connected either use online. or select target folder if u av downloaded the drivers to ur pc already

You must install adb drivers first. Download the drivers from the Nokia X Toolkit thread on xda.
Then connect your phone. Open my computer(Windows Vista+) click system properties then go to Device Manager. Find your device in the list and double click on it. Click on update driver, browse for files in my computer. Select the folder of drivers and press ok.
Then try rooting your phone.

I think its worth to give this a try as after the update my phone felt a lot smoother , battery life also extended for me, and a multitasking window was there... never know you may like it or not but just give a try.
you need to flash stock rom via nokia x flasher or care suite then update to this rom
P.S. these rom are not as smooth as lewa os but they are bug free.

How to update my Verizon M8 to Marshmallow

I have a Verizon M8.
All i want is to update my android version from lollipop to marshmallow.
I've searched for long and i just want you guys to tell me the easiest way to do it, thanks.
I'm s-on.

I take it you actually are not on the Verizon network?
If that is the case, you will have to search around for the Verizon version RUUs. The links previously posted were removed by request of the poster.

Sunshine s-off should work. But you need to root with kingroot, if the built-in Sunshine temp root doesn't work.
Now, updating by official RUU versus s-off and custom ROMs (or other "unofficial" means) is a personal choice.

How to get most up to date Rom on my Phone?

Hello,
Got an HTC one M9 today. Since it has the stock rom on it, I wanted to go directly to the current version and flash all the old data out (if thats possible). So I visited the HTC-Support ROM download page which's link I cant post because I'm a too new user to this board.
There, I downloaded this (Under the "Unlocked/Developer" category): "HTC One M9 4.23.617.1".
When I start this, it recognizes my phone right and has a button "Update" for me, where I'm already wondering why is that. I want to flash my Phone with the current version, why should I bother updating anything? If you can point me where I could rather get the tools and instructions to do that (flashing with current version), I would be grateful.
However I tried Updating, and after a quick reboot the Updateprogram tells me "Error 132: Signature-Error".
It says I should get the right Update-Utility and try again. How is that not the right one?
Please help.
Greetings,
Ravior

Check out the readme thread, specifically the section on RUUs.
As for doing OTA updates versus RUU, the advantage of OTA updates is that your phone settings and data are preserved. RUU installs wipe and reset your phone to factory default.

Thank you for pointing me there. After going through much of the information stated there (In the readme thread) I was able to combine the things that happened and why they did so.
In my case, I was trying to use a RUU for 4.x versions on a phone with 3.x installed, which simply isnt supported.
So this means I have to update all the way to 4.x to install the most up to date ruu and then I can flash the device on that version.
I hope they have good reason for not letting us simply flash the current version, since its very troublesome to update all the way through but well...
Thank you!

Please tell me about the security aspects of the mechanic that forces you to update step by step rather than installing full images of the current version. Just look at computer operating systems. Do you always install f.e. Windows XP and then upgrade through vista and windows 7 to windows 10?

Well, since you didn't install anything but bought the phone with a pre-installed OS that metaphora doesn't suit at all. Compare it with a computer that you buy and that has windows 8 pre-installed. Are you able to directly install the latest windows 10 version with all current KB-updates installed? No, you aren't. You need to install windows 10 and then to install all missing KBs via the windows update function.
Since you seem to like them, here's another metaphora: Do you keep your flat's/house's lock and keys if you know that thiefs own a copy of the key? No, you probably change the lock and the key. That's what HTC did with the encryption keys.
And no one said that you need to flash every OTA up to the latest firmware of your SKU. Depending on your current firmware, you might be able to directly install the needed 4.x OTA and then you can flash a 4.x RUU (which might not even be needed since not every SKU received more than one 4.x firmware iteration, yet). And even if you aren't on the latest 3.x firmware for your SKU you only need to flash one RUU more (the one for the latest 3.x firmware of your SKU). All in all the whole flashing/installing won't take longer than one hour. A RUU gets flashed within less than 5 minutes. And the longest OTA installation that I faced with the M9 took half an hour and that was the update from Android L to Android M.
You see, there is absolutely no reason to get het up that much. So please, calm down a little. XDA isn't the place for public rants. That's what you can use facebook, twitter, G+ or reddit for.

Sorry, but I dont think that smartphones are that different from pcs. I think being forced to install as many tools and getting to know all the matter shouldnt be that much; it could be much easier. I think most of the stuff is just that complicated because this way its better to make money than having it in a simple and easy way, like one ROM for every country in the world. For example, I can easily create my custom windows 7 installation media with any updates and additions I would like and install it on every pc in the world thats not too old.

And now I would like to ask you me how you type such long texts on your smartphone

Android/Linux is not Windows. If you believe it or not, you can't compare a PC with a smartphone.
And there are custom made firmware packs for this phone, as well.
In addition, HTC won't read what you're writing here so complaining about their decisions on xda is completely useless. If you still think that it's necessary then do so on one of the websites I mentioned in my last post.
