Hi,
I have recently updated my phone to ARHD 8.1.0 (ICS 4.0.4) however my APN list is blank and I can't get 3g or a data connection. I still have cell coverage just no data connection. I have tried re-flashing to a previous radio and that didn't do anything. If anyone can help me sort out my APN list, whether it is a permissions thing or maybe I have to bite the bullet and re-flash to a previous rom with ICS 4.0.3 (last resort) because I am loving the speed and smoothness of ARHD 8.1.0. And I have tried to simply add the APNs again, the list continues to stay blank.
Thanks guys!
bump, anyone know?
Go into recovery and do a full wipe, re-download the boot image and ARHD rom and flash.

Okay I will try that, so a full wipe? I have done a superwipe and re-flash 3 times. But will try it again, might get lucky. Cheers mate.
Did you do a restore of any kind? Titanium backup restores including system data seem to mess with many sense settings.

No luck mate, that didn't work. Might just bite the bullet and wait till the full release.

Yeah I do titanium backup restores, however I currently have no data on my phone because I just did a full reset and wipe, and still my APN list is blank and I can't add any. Must be some sort of bug... Not sure.

Did you try manually re-adding them even after a clean wipe with no restore? Did you clear all caches? Davlik and normal. There shouldn't be a glitch if you are starting from scratch especially if it worked on the stock rom before.

Also, when you say wipe, do you mean reflashing the rom or just a wipe from inside the rom?

Super wipe and wipe data from CWM Recovery, cleared all the caches yes. Stock rom it was fine on 4.0.3, but since i've gone to 4.0.4 I have lost the APN list. And of course I have tried re-adding them, it still stays blank. Really annoying...
Managed to find a bit of a fix, every time I would save an APN with the MNC set at 02 the list would be blank, but if I left it at 029 it would save. My APN seems to work with 029 but it is meant to use 02. Not to worry, least it is working. Thanks for everything guys!
I don´t know why but when I try to do a battery reset nothing happens. I go do "Backup and reset", "Reset Phone" and click on "Reset Phone". Then if tells me that all my personal info will be erased and that this cannot be reversed, blah, blah...I click on ok and nothing happens. I have only 10% battery but the phone is plugged to the charger charging.
Can I do a factory reset using htc sync manager? What other options do I have?
You want to do a battery reset ? What do whant to achieve ? If you want to wipe the batt stats because you think it is displayed wrong you can wipe the batt stats in the recovery (custom one if you have)
And if you are still on the stock rom you can perform a factory reset from the bootloader !
If you are on a custom rom you can not do a factory reset because it will bring you in a bootloop,then you have to reflash the rom
---------- Post added at 10:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:48 AM ----------
Why opening multiple threads within 20 minutes.
It was a batt restriction after all. I guess that if you´re lower than 10% it won´t let you reset the phone even if you´re plugged in.

So, if I want to do a factory reset I have to go back full stock (ROM and recovery?) And then go to the bootloader and choose it from there?

Yes can always perform a factory reset but only when you are on the stock rom. A custom rom will get wiped so the phone doesn't boot anymore.

Yes.. If you have any custom rom problems... use custom recovery to wipe data/cache/dalvic and then reflash the boot.img and rom!
I was upgrading my n7100 from 4.1.2 to the
MJ5 4.3 ROM. I wanted to back up my data with a nandroid so that I could retain my app data. After I made the nandroid I tried restoring it. After that I got stuck at the Samsung logo in a perpetual boot loop. I tried deleting the cache and davit cache and that took me to the part where it says android is optimising apps after software upgrade but once the upgrading finishes the phone restarts again and then gets stuck at the Samsung logo again in a boot loop. The only solution to get by this is to delete data/factory reset in Cwm. But then I lose all data. Is there any way to recover the app data? I still haven't upgraded to 4.3 and am still on 4.1.2.
Thanks!!
Wipe data and do a factory reset. Don't format the internal sd if u had made your backup in the internal memory of your phone. Once the phone starts use Titanium backup to restore all your stuff from the nandroid backup.

Hi, I'm a noob at messing with rooting or ROMs, I have a T-Mobile HTC One M8 that I rooted, it worked fine until 2 weeks later it started rebooting every few seconds, I went into TWRP Recovery and wiped the Dalvik Cache and the regular Cache, it worked fine for a few days then started rebooting every minute or so so I attempted to wipe both the Dalvick Cache and the regular Cache again thinking it would solve the problem once more. I went into Advanced Wipe and wiped Dalvik Cache, Cache, Data, Internal Storage and System...it was a noob mistake thinking that I just did a Factory Wipe. I'm not sure why I did that, but afterwards, I lost the OS to my phone because of it.
These are the Problems:
I have S-On
I didn't do a Backup of anything
I don't know how to find the CID (if needed to fix it)
I have no idea how to fix the phone
I've attached a picture of what my bootloader shows for its information. Please can someone help me fix my mistake...I really want to learn how to fix this. Can someone please instruct me how to get my OS back? I want to be able to use this phone again.
I think you can side load in recovery a ROM to flash. Lemme check...

I have a friend that did that this is what he did:
Boot into recovery phone plugged into pc
Put Rom in adb folder and start cmd from that folder
adb devices (to make sure pc is seeing the phone)
adb push NameOfRom.zip /
On phone goto install in recovery pick the Rom and install it
Do you have a micro SD card? If so, download a ROM on your computer, transfer it to micro SD card, put the card into your m8, boot into recovery (hold volume up or down and power, I forget which one, then select recovery) go to install and choose external storage. Then install the rom like normal.

The mistake you made there was that you wiped the system which removes any is that is on your phone.... I've made that mistake before.... That's why every dev says make nandroid backup every so often:good::victory:
If you have external sd, follow the guide in my sig

System refers specifically to the OS, so obviously if you wipe it, you will have no OS.
First off, my advice is that you should not be wiping anything if you don't know what it is, or what the effect will be. Sorry, not trying to be harsh, but you see the result if you rush into things without being properly informed or careful.
On a similar note, there is usually no reason to wipe Internal Storage. Some of the more OCD folks here like to do it from time to time, just to do a really thorough cleanup. But again, if you don't have a good specific reason to wipe a partition, you shouldn't do it. For instance, even if you had done a TWRP backup, the default save location is Internal Storage, so you would have deleted the backup anyway. Same thing if you had a ROM zip on the Internal Storage (to flash in case of problems like no OS), you would have wiped that too. Its a bit too common to see folks post "I had a ROM zip on the phone, but I wiped everything so now I can't flash the ROM".
All you need to do to recover is adb push a ROM to the internal storage; or copy a ROM to a removable MicroSD card. Then flash either in TWRP.

Thanks for the information,
How do I find out if a ROM is compatible with my phone? or does it matter? also, I read that to flash a ROM, you need to have S-OFF? My phone has S-On, does that matter as well?

Any ROM meant for the M8 should work. If you want to be sure, check the thread for that ROM to see the T-Mobile version is supported. or other T-Mob users have flashed it successfully.

No, you do not need S-off to flash ROMs. You can flash ROMs with S-on. Any mods that require s-off should state so in the top post of the thread for that mod.

Okay thanks, I downloaded a Nandroid Backup from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51836232&postcount=1
The one that shows this: TWRP-TmoUS-Stock-Rom-Backup-1.12.531.19.zip
In the TWRP I go to Install, change the storage to Micro SDcard and choose the zip file, I then swipe to confirm flash...but it doesn't go through it says that it can't read the cache.
Am I possibly doing something wrong?
I think you need to go into boot loader and type command (fastboot erase cache) without the brackets there. Then reboot recovery and try again.
Sent from my One M8 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Fastboot erase cache, as previously mentioned. Or using TWRP to erase cache (select Wipe, go Advanced, and check cache) should work, too.

A nandroid backup zip is for you to extract and place the folder to TWRP/backup on your sdcard.
In TWRP you select restore and select that folder.
It is not for install like a ROM.zip

A nandroid backup is indeed a ROM and to replace your current ROM ... just the installation is different from a ROM.zip. You restore a nandroid backup, complete and reboot... you have a stock ROM runnning.
Check here for ROM but not many for T-Mobile : http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-htc-one-m8/development

You should already have TWRP backup folder.

Good luck, gotta go now
I went into twrp(which had just been installed using the twrp app) I then proceeded to make a new backup of my phone and found that afterwards I was no longer able to boot into android. It would automatically boot to recovery. I tried restoring the backup. and then a whole new rom. I have since found I was also unable to boot into download mode. it would still just boot into recovery. Any ideas on how I could fix this? mine is the rogers model to clarify.
Have u tried wiping dalvik cache or factory reset by Twrp?

Yes, I wiped it and tried another rom.
New info just noticed that twrp is throwing out the error E:/sbin/runatboot.sh process ended with error=1
Edit: Upon looking online at the symptoms(automatically booting into recovery no download and no system) i believe the problem may be that twrp got installed on the wrong partition or deleted partitions that it shouldn't have. I'm coming from dn4 by the way.
follow steps:
1. charge ur phone to 80%
2. Advance wipe except SD card
3. Restore Stable backup
Second Option
1. Advance Wipe all
2. Goto fastboot mode
3. Re Flash TWRP Recovery
4. Then Try Restoring Old Stable Backup

After screwing around for a bit i managed to reflash a cwm backup of my recovery which now lets me boot into downloader which means if i can track down the official firmware i'll be good to go.
EDIT; Just out of curiosity i flashed the rom i wanted to install. Low and behold its showing the boot animation. i'll update in a few if it boots past there.
EDIT 2: booted! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP
