[Q] Need some advice to go back to 4.3 - HTC One Max

Hi all...
I bought an One Max O2 branded and updated to 4.4...with the f**** GPS Problem.
Now i tried some Custom Roms... with some Roms i got fast fix but horribel accuracy with others it takes long time to fix with a better accuracy. So i think ist definetly no Hardware-Problem.
I think the only way to get a good working GPS is rollback to 4.3.
Im unlocked, S-Off and on hboot 2.49...
Anyone can tell me what to do to completely roll back to Stock 4.3?
Thanks a lot
Greetings
Jerry

Hey I hate to be the bearer of bad news but honestly you should really do your homework before you update and I cannot stress enough people to utilize the "search this forum" feature on XDA. Anyways you cannot downgrade from 2.1 to 1.5 unless you have root access. Sadly the Eris is one of the few Android devices which does not have root so you will not be able to downgrade until the devs figure out how to access root. I cant say on how close they are but seeing most if not all of them are on 2.1 which just recently leaked they probally wont release a rooted rom within your 10 day window. I would however try sending back the phone you never know verizon might just miss that it has 2.1. Please everyone before you upgrade search the forums or ask someone who know what they are talking about before you upgrade: myself, tdavis, zifnab06 and many other have experience with Roms, htc devices and Android ask before you upgrade! This has been a public service announcement
thank for the info i am sending back the replacement phone because its the same issue its not the phone its the software so updated all good now i love the new 2.1 cant wait till some root the phone

Orientation not working after Downgrade

I currently run my HTC on 3 uk and dowloaded my firmware so that I can upgrade it!!
However when I completed the downgrade my Orientation is no longer working when I turn the phone. tried to re-calibrate it etc but to no avail. Has anybody got any answers on this to help me out please?
Firmware is 1.5
Build number is 2.73.405.5
Regards Ray
Sorry I meant to ask is Firmware 1.5 the latest officially from HTC?
It may be a bug in that version, to be honest if you're going to flash a new rom you probably won't have to worry about this. Worst case you flash back to the original rom which came on your phone and send it back if it's still not working.
I would carry on putting a custom rom on your phone. It will probably fix it.
did you try to wipe the rotate settings ? It's in recent recovery roms under wipe menu ...
Yes, I did wipe it when I added the 1st ROM onto my new phone. I wiped it again this morning to try to recover it. Is there anywy I can restore it?
Just to let you know the orientation is now working again after downloading NeOroM 1.2 and its update. The version is excellent and works perfect like my daughters HTC Desire 2.1 officail firmware. I think its the best youre going to get near to it until HTC releasse the official version.
Thanks again for all your help guyz !!

GPS not working at all

Hello Guys,
I'm kind of a noob in Desire X, i got it from a online site 2 days ago.
Now the problems I'm facing is that -
1) The GPS isn't working at all and I can't find any satelites while my Galaxy Y can find.
So I want to flash the latest stock rom here which might lead to a fix for this issue.
Can anyone tell me how to flash stock rom here and where can I find it?
Thanks in Advance

A Jelly Bean update has started rolling out to Desire Xs today, if you keep checking for software updates on your phone, you might find that it will be available very soon. From there you could then make a nandroid backup, and then try solving the issues if the software update does not fix the gps issues.
Wait for at least 5 minutes an go outside to get a gps lock... always works for me...

[q] sds-safe configuration

Holla guys I've recently have an s3.. wonderful device, seriously, but I'm very regretful as regards the SDS issue.. unfortunately my device seems to have the "affected chip" but I love Android world and I can't stay without modding something! the problem, as I have seen, seems to be solved until fws released from 4.1.2... To be more sure, I upgraded my phone to 4.3 stock yesterday and now the fw mounted is the XXUGMK6. My phone is NOT rooted and it is branded Vodafone. In this situation the device should be "covered" (hopefully, this damned issue it's a very bad thing )... however, as I said upon, I want to install something new to speed up this wonderful device.
So let's go straight to the point: what are the bootloader, recovery and rom that have the fws fixed for SDS? What are the best ones IN THIS SENSE? (not in absolutely sense, obviously, because each bl, rec & rom is simply best until it's cooked in my opinion )
Moreover, should I remove brand before installing something? Could you tell me precise steps to do kindly?
I'll be very grateful to everyone can answer my question, really
Oh, I almost forgot: I'd like to taste the speed of KitKat is there any fix or we must wait a Samsung official release??
No one can help me?

Everything built recently (not sure how long) has the fix. Any KitKat build will have the fix, and both newest builds of CWM and TWRP do as well.
Basically, flash anything new and you're fine.

i have the sds chip also i actually had a fright a few months back when i woke up to my phone boot looping and anyway what i get to understand is that once u have a recovery and a bootloader with the latest fix u will be find... i use to use cwm thats before it bootlooped then i switched to philz cwm both right now are suppose to have the sds fix so basically after that flash any rom u want ..cause all the modern roms from 4.2 up as iv observed have the fix and havent given me any sds problem.
Wow guys! Your answers were so great! I can't wait anymore... I start to flash.. "suddenly" ahahah many thanks, I really appreciate your help
Another last question: I must remove brand (flashing no-brand fmw from Sammobile) before flashing custom stuff, right?
I must say "up" otherwise many questions in this section will completely hide mine

My T-mobile S5 is on 4.4.2, should I update to 5.0?

I can't seem to get a clear answer searching the forums... I've been on stock, unrooted 4.4.2 for a while now and all is working fine. The OTA update (for 5.0) is sitting on my phone and I just keep delaying the install. I've been tempted to get one of the new ANDROID AUTO radios and in order to do so, I'll need to upgrade to Lollipop... But I keep reading about bad experiences with the tmobile 5.0 variant.
Anyone on tmobile stock 5.0 happy? Is everything working? Battery life good? Wifi not dropping?
For that matter, anyone on stock 5.1.1 happy? Does mhl still work?
I'm not super interested in rooting (I will if I have to) or running custom roms (I really need wifi-calling) -- just worried the stock OTA experience is borked.
Any advice appreciated. Thanks.

5.1.1 is noticeably quicker than 5.0 or below, however it has a major MHL bug, i.e. it does not work! Just purchased the MHL adapter (wasn't aware of what I was missing...it's awesome), but had to downgrade to 5.0 in order for it to work. My guess is a 5.1.1 bug fix ota is likely in the works....I hope. Anyway you can freely Odin flash between any firmware version for this device.
Thanks!
Updated to 5.0. Everything seems to be running smoothly... I'll hold off on 5.1.1 for a while until there's a bug fix.
