Annoyance - Verizon HTC One (M8)

The "not a valid Verizon SIM" message is really starting to work my nerves. Is there anyway out there to get rid of this? I tried the freezing the setup apk method. Still nothing

Me too want to get rid of that.

?????? I guess my first question would be what did y'all do to cause this to show up? I have flashed clean rom, gpe, and viper and have never had this problem

I've had this problem since I first bought it...I have an h2o SIM in it and every time I reboot I get this message. I have the viper1 Rom now but that even happens with stock
HTC ONE M8?

I just switched to insert coin and got it when I was in a basement with no service. As soon as I went up stairs, it went away and I had service again.

htc sensation wifi error

yes I have tried almost everything, like flashing custom roms or stock ruu almost everyday with different variations. flashing kernels, tweeks, so on and so on.
It works somehow and it disconnect itself after a while or totally stucks in "wireless is turning on". After it get online it makes couple of reboots and it gives "wireless is turning on" error again. I can use the phone for days but wireless never gets on.
The funny point is when wireless on and screen is locked and screen is off. When I attempt to click screen lock button, sometimes it never gives light but I can see that The screen is on and I can move the ring and do whatever i want but it is very hard to see actually. I have to put on light on to see the pictures but it doesnt happen when wifi is off or gives error.
and another funny point is I can swipe down upper bar when screen is locked. I can do bypass.
What the hell is going on my phone? no idea really
lol, i don't know a solution for the screen/wifi issue. but lockscreen pulldown status bar is a new feature of ICS, not a bypass
to make it easier to access your notifications
we have the same issue i even downgrade to GB but still the same problem did have the wifi issue when you did OTA ?

I think most of the people having same issues and problems but having no solution for that? it is just ridiculous.

Hi,
Have a look at THIS THREAD
Particularly # 3 and Extra 1
I have this problem as well...whatever I do, I can't get wifi to work anymore...I reflashed firmware, tried several different roms, I followed the guide in the aforementioned post...nothing helps...it always says "Error" after some time.
Is there anybody who knows what to do?
Struggled with same problem for months...gave up
I had the same problem with my wi-fi and bluetooth. Both would get stuck on "turning on" mode and never come on. Everything else worked fine. I too flashed ROMS, Kernels, RUU's etc. to no avail. SO I GAVE UP. After 2 months without wifi i couldn't anymore so i called HTC, they asked for my S/N and IMEI and confirmed I was still under warranty, so I un-rooted, went back to S-ON, flashed the newest official T-Mobile RUU and shipped the phone away. I called today and they said the MOTHERBOARD was being replaced and I should have it back this week! Woot-Woot! Try giving HTC a call...worst thing that happens is they say NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY...but you won't find out till you give em a call...*shrug.
I have the same problem with the lock screen and wifi. Except for me the wifi is always on "Error". It doesn't say anything else it just says error. It started happening after a system update failed to install. An update would come up and reboot my phone to try and install it. So it would start up ext4 recovery and ext4 would do some stuff and then reboot again. After boot I was asked again if I wanted to install the update. I repeated this process a couple of times before deciding I had enough and deleted the update.
Wifi has been on Error ever since. Everything else works fine.
Does anyone have any ideas? I'm on a HTC Sensation XE stock rom but HTC Dev unlocked and perm rooted.

find your firmware.zip,extract the boot.img from it,place it the file where adb is and then do the commands

Hi buddy.. I was having the same problem as you with the wifi error. Also my phone was restarting by itself. what I did was that I removed the SD card and left the phone without it. It worked for me. After that my wifi was working perfectly and no more restarts. I had a 8GB SD Card before, maybe with this new update this 8GB SDcard was too heavy for the phone. I running a 2GB SDcard now with no problems. Please let me know if it worked to you as well.. Good luck!!

I tried this, but it did not work. I'm not sure if my problem is a hardware failure or a software problem. 3 weeks after I got this phone, it got water damaged. Full of water! I took out the battery, letted it dry for some hours and turned it on. Everything worked! Only thing to see from the water, was the spot, that shows if it have got water, was 3/4 red. Everyting went good within a month or so. Then in feburary/march it stopped working (wifi). The same thing for Bluetooth. It's just writing "turns on" wifi or the bluetooth, and after 5-10 minutes it say "error"
Edit: The reason why I wonder about if it's a hardware/software failure is, I do not remember if it came within a install of an costum rom or it just happened out of now where
Any sugestions?

I had the same problem, this is how i fixed it : first flahs 4EXT recovery, not clockwork, then get the rom you want and a super wipe, go into recovery, turn smartflash on in tools. Superwipe, then let it reboot, turn smartflash on again, and flash the rom

Ignore this info. What you need to do is log into your router hub & change the wifi signal Ch from auto to say, number 4 or summat, guarantee that's your problem.

[Q] installed rom and now I have NO service.

Hey guys,
No matter what I do I can't get my service to work again. All it shows at the top is a little circle with a slash through the middle. I tried installing a custom rom but ran into some problems. So I "restored" my backup through rom manager. But i don't have service anymore. Since this happend I have tried several new roms and I still can't get the service to come back.
Some people say it has something to do with the IMEI but according to my setup I still have one.
I have been working on this problem for nearly 13 hrs none stop! Please help... I have searched everywhere.
Thanks

If your IMEI and all that information is correct then you may have a bad sim card resulting in no service at all. Otherwise i'd recommend using odin to go back to completely 100% stock and see if that fixes it.

Thank you so much for responding. I have tried to restore stock with odin but every time odin finishes my phone still boots up my existing rom. Any quick ideas with that one?
And do you really think my sim could have just gone bad like that? It's free to get a new one so maybe I will try that as a last resort.
I don't know much about rooting but could it be my radio?
A couple of questions?
Is boot loader unlocked, if so how did you unlock, updated ver 1.4 ez-unlock can mess up and relock boot loader. Use ver 1.2 . "Verizon only"
What ROM and kernel? Make sure its for your carrier.
Any radio should be OK as long as its for you phone and carrier.

did you try reprovisioning your device with dialer code *2767*3855?
note that this does wipe internal sd so back ur **** up!
I tired the above number in dialer but always comes up with error saying "mobile network not available".
Am I doing something wrong?
Oh.... You forgot to ad a # on the end of that number. After this everything started working again!!! Thank you so much!

What fixes the problem. This happened to me after flashing the latest MIUI ROM on my Verizon S3.
I tried re provisioning my phone with the number sequence below but it did not work. I also used the phone info app but I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do.

No Data/Calls on Viper 1.5

I have the weirdest issue, I searched around and have found no topics on so here it goes. Every time I try to install Viper 1.5 on the Verizon m8, Everything tells me it worked, then as I'm setting up the phone I don't have any Carrier calling/data. After setup is complete I still don't have any Carrier calling/data. Occasionally a message box appears saying sim is prepared and then I click on my carrier (Verizon) and the screen goes blank and repeats. Everything else on the rom works great! But I can't get my carrier data/calls! I've redownloaded, wiped, and re installed over and over! Hope I can get some help!
Thanks for the hard work and support!
Try reflashing TRWP newest version. I had the same issue too and this fixed it for me.

yea sounds like OP is using one of the older initial releases
OP see here for TWRP from the actual team and not a port

Yep, I fixed it, thanks guys. I was mistakenly using the wrong twrp version and it was flashing the viper gsm version of the rom!

[Q] No signal anymore

Hey guys... I recently encountered a problem with my nexus 5. Suddenly my phone lost signal and it won't receive any more signal.I was on the latest version of PA on 4.4.2 ...... Now I factory reset my phone and it's stuck on phone setup... What do I do?? I'll try flashing back to stock later and I'll see if it's fixed... Also, before factory resetting my phone, I checked my IMEI and it isnt gone.... It was still there.. Strange... Any suggestions on what I should do? Also, I don't have a nandroid backup....

Still no luck
Guys... Returning to stock didn't do anything... Still the same problem... Now I'm stuck in setting up the phone since it shows that my sim is inserted and it's trying to activate the sim... But it stays there forever ... I'm pretty sure it's a problem with the sim holder... When I tried removing the SIM card for the phone, it failed to eject my SIM card... Now I have to find a way to get my sim out... When I use the pin, it only opens 1/8.. It's too small to fit anything in it... What do I do?? Running out of ideas...
I could give my phone for repair but I live in Dubai and I don't think there are any service centers here...

[Q] black screen pops up and goes away

I've had this really weird problem ever since the update for 4.4.4 got downloaded to my phone automatically as soon as it was released for the Verizon moto g. I'll be using my phone like normal and this black screen will pop up for a second as if it is asking me to do something but nothing is there then it will go away. It happens quickly and doesn't do anything but it is very annoying. I'm wondering if it is because I told the update not to install yet and set a reminder for later? Although it isn't time for that reminder to go off yet and this happens about every 5 minutes or so. I haven't installed any new apps or downloaded anything and I even factory reset my phone and the problem remains.
I'm not rooted and my boot loader is still locked. Running stock android 4.4.2 on Verizon xt1028.
Ideas?

It's from the OTA notification service.I have the same issue, coz I'm lazy to disable the update service atm.
To clarify, the problem you get is a quick flash-in/flash-out in black color. Happens quite quick.Right?

Yeah that's exactly what happens! I figured it had to do with the OTA… so how can I stop it from doing that? or should I just update to 4.4.4? Are there any issues?

You can disable it if you have root.In case you do, then go to /system/priv-app/ and find motorolaOTA.apk , change its permissions to 0000 and you`re good :>
