Database Info

[Q] Unable to get to the android menu.

I'm not that experienced in this new htc development stuff nowadays, because it's been long time I havent browsed forums closely. Anyways a friend has this One SL phone, and somehow it's bricked and asked me to help him repair it, because I owned htc phone before and was more experienced (which I doubt now).
Here's the problem i'm facing and hoping someone could point me to some information where to start from. Device is S-On and haven't been rooted or bootloader unlocked or any thing else, its totally stock with stock recovery and rom. After powering the phone it boots ok, but when I get to lockscreen and try to unlock it it gives me some errors like : com.android.settings has stopped and beneath that message is another one which is hard to read because this one getting all the time, Unfortunately, System UI has stopped.
I tried to hard reset from bootloader because I cant get to recovery from there it gives me a sign and not getting any recover. So I only did factory reset several times, and clear data but that doesn't fix anything. I got some pictures of the error and bootloader screen if that can help anyone to give me some more information.
Btw i'm trying to find out what is the stock rom for this phone but can't find out how to get that information from a non fully working system. If that is possible I would flash stock rom and see if it will fix the problem.
I wrote a lot of text but I wanted to clarify the situation in my way.
Here are the pictures I took:

You can unlock the device, flash a custom recovery and flash a stock rom.
If you are locked, you can do pretty nothing.

is the SIM card good?

Do you mean locked like Sim locked or bootloader locked? If you mean Sim locked it is sim unlocked accepts all sim cards. If you mean bootloader how to unlock it can you guide me.
russellvone : It was without sim card inside when I made picture that's why it shows Emergency only.

Bootloader unlocked.
Go to www.htcdev.com and follow the steps there.

Ok I followed the steps and get the bootloader unlocked It says ***UNLOCKED *** but under that I still have SHIP S-ON . Can I use any shipped rom to flash this device now or what should I do if you can help me out.

Now you have to flash custom recovery (TWRP recovery) with fastboot.
Look into my index thread, you can find a link to the newest TWRP there.

Im on your page and following the information to install TWRP 2.6.3 but there's written with red letters
"Only for k2u & k2ul!
Important: Recommended for hboot 2.21!" and i'm on hboot 2.00 does that matter?

Works also on hboot 2.00.

Ok you helped me a lot till now. I finished TWRP and it works, im in the recovery now. Now what build can I flash or what to do to fix the phone.

For example this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2254384
Don't forget to flash the boot.img with fastboot (see "How to install").

How to update Android at Franco Kernel?

I really need help! I currently have Android 4.4.2 with franco.kernel. I would like to update to Android 4.4.3. So I found the instructions of this type:http://nexus5.wonderhowto.com/how-t...4-4-4-without-losing-any-data-update-0155334/
Everything is OK to a point 6. Shows a console and upload the files but error pops up.

I use Nexus Root Toolkit.
How to fix it? NO WIPE of course.

Stop using toolkits. They tend to do more harm than good.
Download the factory images of 4.4.4 and then flash system, radio and boot manually via fastboot. This will bump your android version to 4.4.4 with everything stock.

If i have 4.4.2 I can go directly to 4.4.4?
When I flash system and boot manually it does not lose data?

Yes Sir, you can!
Nope, you won't loose any data. Only if you flash the userdata.img will you loose all data from /sdcard.

You could also un-root temporary with OTA RootKeeper to update your system

Since we're all putting our 2 cents in, here's mine
Just download the full rooted stock ROM in android development and flash it without wipe from recovery.

i constantly tell people to do this, its the easiest way out, by far. yet people seemed determined to make it as hard for themselves as possible.

I just copy paste from my clipboard manager, I say it that often

It's actually fewer steps anyway.
OTA = revert system changes, boot recovery, flash, re-flash recovery, re-root
Rooted stock = boot recovery, flash
No brainer really. Flashing an OTA if rooted is a fool's errand

Chinese Fastboot Mode?

Hey everyone!
So, I flashed dalvik and bionic optimizations for the OnePlus One that I found over on the Nexus 5. When I booted back up into Android, all of my apps were missing, and everything kept on crashing. So, I booted into Fastboot Mode, but instead of the Cid logo which is usually presented, this message came up:
己进人fastboot...
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The English translation is roughly "You have entered fastboot...". Everything still worked fine. I flashed my system partition back, and everything was okay. But, strangely, the Chinese fastboot message still appears instead of Cid. I kinda want Cid back...does anyone have any solutions? And yes, my phone is the international model.

i also have the same screen for fastboot. to make it worst i dont have root access but have a chinese version of cwm on the device. donno what to do.

Maybe you should flash bootloader from CM11S factory image. File name is sbl1.mbn
i have an chinese version OPO , my bootloader is cid after i flash stock image.
btw,it's 已进入fastboot. they are very similar.
sorry for my english

Well you can also try flashing the logo.bin partition from the CM11S image cyngn has at https://cyngn.com/products/oneplusone/, but if your bootloader is already in chinese, you might just want to flash the device back to full stock using the fastboot image.

Yeah, it will fully revert your device to the factory image. Once you are done, if you have the 64gb model, make sure to flash the userdata_64gb.img manually after otherwise your system will only show as 16gb.

Yeah...that's a bit too much to lose just to change how my fastboot looks. Thanks for your suggestion though.

So upon further research, it looks like this is the exact same fastboot screen that OPPO devices use!! Somehow, I've gotten the OPPO fastboot mode one my One! And OnePlus denies involvement with OPPO....

Introduction:
I was missing a stock based rom for this device. So I took the nvidia recovery image and made it a flashable zip for TWRP. You cannot use ota to update though, wait for the new version from here if you want to update.
Also, don't flash wrong zip on the wrong Shield Tablet. It's your own responsibilty
Features:
- Latest Stock Factory Image
- Zipaligned apps
- Nothing more
Download:
K1: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=93930
Original (Wifi & LTE): https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=94437
Also flash blob file of the same version
Enjoy!!

What to do with the blob zip:
Code:
1. Extract blob file from zip
2. Flash blob in fastboot with: fastboot flash staging "name of blob file"

Yup, I vote for original Shield ROM! Thanks!

Nice! Vulcan API goodness!

Zip for the original Shield Tablet (untested):
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591000424954195

Thanks for this!
Is there any possibility you remove the Kill-Switch for users who have kept their tablet what has had to be replaced? I guess the Tegra Ota service must be disabled

Thanks! Made backup, flashed rom zip, flashed twrp, su, Xposed, nomoreota, and kernel. Wiped cache and booted system. Looks good so far... Not much immediate difference but we shall see over time. Came from stock so I did not wipe data and all is well.

Ok thank you. Previous post says something about the nomoreota file, I remember that one now.
Anyway is this ROM pre-rooted? And is the file for the original tablet compatible with all three versions of it?

So after a few hours this ROM is smoother, cooler and faster then stock... Guess I'll be keeping it for awhile.

The rom is not prerooted, also I only downloaded the wifi image. So that's the version for the original tablet

ok so after unlocking and rooting, I installed the bliss rom, but realized none of the nvidia apps were there And besides my Phantom I want this tablet for that.
so I wiped and installed this one, ran the nomoreota zip and everything is back to normal, but, I'm not longer rooted.
I just want this rom and rooted. I have twrp recovery and it works fine, but still not rooted.
anyhelp? thanks

In attempting to get root on this device, no method I tried had worked. So my idea was to do a custom recovery twrp to try to install SuperSU update through it.
If anyone can install twrp or root, be sure to tell them here for everyone to get.
I created the Grand M group on the telegram for the galley to help themselves and mainly to develop the projects. Interested parties can enter by this link:. Blu Grand M Projects

Download TWRP to Grand M here

Hello, I just want to let you know that the download is corrupted when my friend tries to flash it if you still can, can you reupload
Will try to download again next time to see jf it wasnt just my internet though

Maybe someone will have an answer to this but after searching online (product site included) I cannot define the difference between the G070EQ and the G070Q Blu Grand M models. For purposes of firmware and the fact my daughter bought and hashed these cheap dang phone and I'm a sucker for a challenge.
Thanks!

I do hope someone has this file in backup
So they could do op a favor and reupload in a zip or sorts
Cause i do not know why everytime i try to downloaf it , its always corrupted
It was just our internet.... For some reason, have the files now, thanks

The recovery is being replaced. To fix this you will lose all personal data on the phone and you have to erase userdata. There are other ways as well.
To get around this, flash system img and right after flash recovery twrp and in the same sequence don't reboot phone but boot in via flash -c boot to the same recovery. Delete the cache. dalvik and userdata and it should make TWRP stick. This is not really a TWRP issue and will do the same with any recovery.

Help solve the problem with Blu Grand m
Generally does not turn on, when charging is connected, only 0.4 is given then 0, and from time to time the screen with the Blu logo is lit. I tried to flash the result did not give, what can it be?

Thanks for your help and the post, ironically when I reinstall the ROM is when the root access is removed. Do we we need a custom ROM?
