Lollipop issues with HTC M8?

since lollipop, HTC M8 reboots randomaly about once every three minutes, runs VERY HOT, battery dies within three hours without recharge. HELP.

I also have the HTC ONE M8 and have major problems with the upgrade. The operating system itself is defective. I've lost apps I paid for and contacts and videos of my son's wedding, all of which were backed up to the cloud server. I used the tech coach service which is a premium/paid for service offered by Verizon and they had me do a factory reset. The factory reset did not revert the phone back to kit Kat, lollipop is still on my phone. Verizon has been advising customers to take their phones to best buy to have them reverted back to kit Kat. I would advise you to back up all the files and contacts and apps to your computer , use the micro jab wire to do so. You can either take it to best buy to revert it back, or wait like I'm doing, since I've already lost files and contacts and apps. The lollipop operating system should have been better tested prior to being "forced" into our phones. I wish you good luck with it.

  • Multiple Issues with HTC 8X and Verizon Doesn't Care

    I have had this phone for three months and had this issue the whole time.  Searched Verizon and Windows forums and found the same thing.  Only Verizon HTC 8X having this issue.  On top of that I am now having hardware issues.  Phone SIM not showing up as connected and have to restart or re-seat the SIM.  Battery life has gone down drastically.  Overnight charge gets me 11 hours tops without using my Data plan with WIFI off and other major apps closed out.  Shouldn't have to do that to utilize features on a smart phone.  As soon as I begin using my data plan the 11 hours is cut in half.  Not to mention if I use the phone for GPS navigation it gets drained in 30 minutes to and hour.  Then the software is now freezing.  Either freezes completly and have to restart or applications i try to open, stall and then go  back to the start menu.  I have to then power off the phone which freezes and 15 minutes later powers off.  3 months into the phones contract.  Ridiculous.  Bought from Letstalk.com and they told me I am SOL.  14 days for return and 30 for exchange.  Go see HTC.  HTC says i'm SOL.  Go to Verizon and get a new SIM.  Factory Reset the device as  well.  If that doesn't help, ship it to us and we will repair.  Are you kidding.  I am a consultant for a major merger and acquisition company that deals with infrastructure practices all day.  Send you my phone for repair on a 3 month old phone.  Are you kidding me.  Finally talked to Verizon.  They are not consciously aware of the HTC 8x missed call three beep scenario when it has been on there forums since December of this year.  With all my issues they told me I'm SOL.  I don't want to send it in for repair.  That is ridiculous.  What will that solve.  A couple of the issues.  What about the three beep issue the has plagued me for months. A refurbished of a different model from two years ago, no thanks.  I received a new phone three months ago.  So you wanna make it my fault and tell me here take an iphone 4 from two years ago from 300 dollars.  I am furious with this and want to proceed with making sure this lack of decent service for an issue like this is resolved and others don't have to face this type of treatment.  I paid good money for a smartphone with reliable service.  So far i'm being told to bend over and take it from everyone.  I feel that the three beep issue alone is a breach of the contract I have with Verizon and I should be able to constitute that right and terminate this disease.

    Hello,
    I received my new "reconditioned" phone to replace my 6 month old Droid 4.
    The replacement phone only holds a charge for 6 hours or so, with minimal
    use (no internet).
    I am VERY unhappy. I left a message with the store employee who helped me
    activate the replacement
    phone, but have not heard back. This is really disappointing. I paid a lot
    of money AND signed an additional
    2 year contract in order to purchase my Droid 4. Now I am stuck with a piece
    of junk phone as is my other
    employee who has a replaced Droid 4 as well. The store even told me they had
    "issues" with this model (battery completely died on my phone 619-XXX-XXXX
    as well as on 760-XXX-XXXX).
    We concluded that when both our Droid 4 phones died within a couple of
    months of each other.
    AT the very least, we should have our phones replaced with new, so they can
    at least hold a charge and be used for
    our business as the purpose they were purchased  for.
    I would think making this right, since this is quite obviously NOT our fault
    would be clear if you expect to retain customers.

  • TS1398 I have the ipad retina display version - I have a BIG issue with this when out and about that on about 50% of the time will it see my HTC mobile WiFi hotspot - rebooting either, or both devices doesn't cure the problem it drives me MAD!!!!

    I have the ipad retina display version - I have a BIG issue with this when out and about, that only about 50% of the time will it see my HTC mobile WiFi hotspot - rebooting either, or both devices doesn't cure the problem it drives me MAD!!!!
    The HTC hotspot works fine with everything else I connect to it.
    Also - ipad will not connect to my HTC via bluetooth. Again, I can connect to everything else with my HTC other than my ipad.
    I have to say this is my first venture into Apple products and I have always wanted to get away from my windows based laptop to get a MacBook, the problems I have had (flash player etc) & continue to have (as above) are putting me right off swapping over. I HATE technology that doesn't work and my ipad has been hard work!

    I stated my ipad as being an ipad2, but I now think it is a 3??? It was new Jan this year and is the 64gb retina display version.
    I really would like to get to the bottom on this problem wit mobile hotspots as it is sitting on my desk next to me now and I cannot get it to connect to my HTC mobile hotspot!!!! It might be taking a flying lesson soon at this rate!!! Grrrrrrr...........

  • Since HTC is going to start unlocking thier phones and Verizon has no issue with that

    Since HTC is going to start unlocking thier phones and Verizon has no issue with that
    those who have unlocked their phones should have no issues with warranty unless they alter the OEM Rom or install a different rom
    Most people want to root to get rid of all the bloatware
    So we are back to why not let us remove what we want and put this to rest....

    I think VZW has no issue (if that is actually true) is because if a phone pukes and it has been rooted, their hands are washed of providing a replacement.
    You hit it right on the head, just because they do not lock down bootloaders still does not change that rooting and installing unarthorized firmware or OS violates TOS and voids warrenty which cleans Verizons hands to replace device if it gets damage while doing any of these things to device.

  • Kindle Fire & Adobe Air issues with scaling & bottom menu - GPU Mode only

    Hi,
    Long post ahead, please buckle down for a while.
    I'm having issues with the Kindle Fire and the bottom 20 pixel menu in GPU mode, CPU mode behaves correctly. The project was created with flash cs5.5, the stage size is 1024x600 and I've set the NO_SCALE flag. When the app is run on the Kindle Fire the Kindle scales it to 1024x580 for the bottom 20 pixel menu. If I create the project as 1024x580 it still scales it down and then centers it vertically introducing a 10pixel black bar at the top and I would assume a 10 pixel black bar at the bottom under their menu. In CPU mode the app is not scaled and the bottom 20 pixels is obscured.
    The problems I have encountered so far are incorrect mouse locations as reported in various mouse events. Messed up scrollRects when I try and clip something for display. Not being able to press buttons because of the incorrect mouse coordinates, the further down on the screen the more incorrect the buttons are. You can click below a button near the bottom of the screen and have it activate whereas a button at the top acts perfectly. This is due to the accumulated error value from the yPos * scaleValue.
    The mouse positions are off exactly by a scale factor of 600 / 580 (1.034).
    The video below shows the problems, sorry for the poor video handling. The red line in the video is drawn in the center of the y position detected on a mouse move and mouse down event, but shifted to the left for visibility. The center of that stylus is where it should be at all times, as you can see it isn't. You can also see displayed the buttons not working correctly, they are clearly being activated when the press on the screen is not over the button (indicated by the red line).
    The circle in the middle of the screen has it's scrollRect set to to the width and height of the circle, as you can see it is clipped.
    At the end of the video I press the power button then press it again to unlock, you can see the screen looks good for a split second then gets resized. Once resized the circle becomes clipped again. If I were fast enough I would assume the buttons would work correctly as well. Watch closely, it happens fast.
    Oh, and the app works fine on the desktop in either GPU or CPU mode. The app also works fine in GPU and CPU mode on my iPad2, Google HTC Nexus One, Nook Color and my 4th gen iPod Touch.
    Now whos issue is this? Adobes, Amazons or mine? I know what the problem is but don't know how to fix it.

  • Partial Phonebook Download Issues with Jeep 8.4AN Uconnect Software

    Is anyone having a similar issue with an iphone 5 os 6.1.4? I just bought a new Jeep GC which comes with 8.4AN Uconnect Software. My phone connects via bluetooth fine but in my phonebook only my A-M contacts are shown. Can anyone help?? Thanks

    I just got an LG G3 and am having the EXACT same behavior, connecting and disconnecting over and over.  Sometimes it will eventually connect (if I let the connecting/disconnecting go on for like 15 minutes).  About 50% of the time I can get in my car and it will work as it should, but the other 50% of the time it plays this game.  Uconnect works 100% perfectly with our Galaxy S5 (with both Kit Kat and Lollipop).
    I'm about to send the G3 back to Verizon.

  • Verizon messenger plus issue on htc m8

Very frustrated with this issue. Wonder ing if anyone has the same issues

        mikeo23,
    I am sorry to hear of the issues with the Verizon Messages app after the update. Let's get to the bottom of this. Have you tried clearing cache and date on the Messaging app and retesting? http://vz.to/1FAe0Un If you try another messaging application are you able to send picture messages just fine? Have you checked to make sure the Verizon Messages app is up to date?

  • Lion Upgrade - issue with WiFi Network

    I recently upgraded to Lion and now everytime I restart my wireless network (Time Capsule) is not recongized and I must manually select it. I have the same issue with my magic mouse, although it does reconginze my bluetooth keyboard. What can I do to fix the issue?

    Yes, same WiFi problem with safe mode. Everything was perfect until the upgrade to Lollipop. Now WiFi speed is 1/10 of before, and phone is slow in general. realy sad, sometimes even whatsapp messages takes minutes to be delivered.
    Does anyone know how to select only 5ghz channel for the WiFi on the phone?

  • I am having issues with 360 degree rotation, I have an iPhone 5 and ios 6.0.2. I have read alot about this issue online and I found out that my issue is software. I want to know if and when apple will fix this issue?

    I am having issues with 360 degree rotation, I have an iPhone 5 and ios 6.0.2. I have read alot about this issue online and I found out that my issue is software. I want to know if and when apple will fix this issue?

    I had the same experience with a new iPhone 5 that I bought  last week. Did not have a chance to measure battery life before the 6.0.2 upgrade installed but I set up my phone exactly like my 4S and immediately started running out of power after short periods. Went to Xmas get together with fully charged 5 and 4S. Heading home the iPhone 5 shut down for low battery and the 4S had 65% power. Both phones had two half phone calls on then and no data usage.
    That night I fully charged the iPhone 5 and, without lighting it up, put it on my night table. Next morning I picked it up and looked at battery indicator and I had 42% charge with NO activity!
    Tried it again next night and wound up with 37% charge. (Slept longer).
    Today I called the carrier and reactivated the 4S.  Took the 5 to Apple Store and they kindly gave me choice of new replacement phone or refund. I took the refund. Uniquely, the Apple Store said it was Verizon CDMA phones that were coming back.
    The are other strings on this with temporary solutions, but from my experience with 7 firmware changes on an HTC 4G phone the problem will continue because the solution will be hardware caused. We are in the days where RTM means Rush to Market - not Release To Manufacturing.
    I fear the only solution is to either wait for the next model (I did not notice a really major change in performance over the 4S in LTE heavy Seattle area) - or switch to another manufacturer.
    It might be useful for these forums to indicate if you have a GSM or CDMA phone to see which have more problems.
    Discouraged....

  • Unusual Lollipop Issues

    Hi all. Anyone having these issues with their Z1C after the Lollipop update? Screen is super sensitive, things happen without actually touching the screen.Battery drains quicker.While making a call, "Conditional Call Forwarding is enabled" appears on the screen.I ended up with these issues (except number 3) "after" doing a clean install. The phone has no screen protector but is in a Tetded case. Cheers. 

    I see, because you say the issues have occurred after installing Lollipop - you could try re-installing Lollipop with PC Companion to see if that smoothens out the operating system for you, it is very likely to.
    To do this you just need access to a computer with an internet connection. Download PC Companion here.
    Note: a software repair will delete all user data, to back up your phone:
    1. Go to Support to install PC Companion on a Windows computer.
    2. When installed, start PC Companion on the computer.
    3. Connect your phone to the computer using a USB cable.
    4. Click Start under Backup & Restore.
    5. Follow the on-screen instructions.
    (Exactly what contents will be backed up may differ depending on phone model.
    You can view detailed information about this as you follow the steps in the Backup & Restore wizard).
    Running the software repair on PC Companion:
    1. Install and open PC Companion then select Support Zone.
    2. Phone Software Update.
    3. Start.
    4. Repair Phone
    5. Continue
    6. Accept data removal
    7. Next
    8. Wait for prepare

  • Z3C - issue with apps resuming

    I've has my Z3 compact since they were released in the UK and love it, but have had a persistent issue with it the whole time. When I switch between apps they tend to have to remember restart rather than simply resuming. For example if I'm typing a post in Tapatalk and switch over to chrome to grab a link, when I go back to Tapatalk the post will be lost and I'll be back at a forum topics list. Is this typical behaviour? It certainly wasn't an issue on my last phone (HTC One M7)

    Check if you don't have too many apps open in background (big background services that consume entire RAM). You should be able to easly switch between Chrome and Tapatalk. Except if you have a lots of websites in Chrome at the same time. It tries to keep them all in memory at once and may kill Tapatalk in background.

  • Email problems with HTC Rhyme.  Anyone else?

    I am having trouble sending and receiving emails with my HTC Rhyme.  I have yahoo and outlook.com.  I am not receiving all of my email.  I also show emails that have been deleted on my computer already.  Have to resend most of my email messages.  Anyone have suggestions?

        Good morning ladiskia,
    I can imagine how frustrating it is to have email issues with your phone. I also had issues with my Yahoo account (no issues with my Gmail and other accounts) for some reason. I was able to resolve my Yahoo email issues by deleting the Yahoo email account from my phone and using only the Yahoo mail application http://bit.ly/UXvYa8 Give it a try and keep us posted.

  • Issues with Creative Cloud for teams deployment workflow

    The Adobe Creative Cloud for teams IT Deployment Guide lists out steps for IT admins to deploy the CS6 applications and then have their end-users license the trial software with their Adobe IDs once they have been invited to the team. There are two major issues with this document.
    First, the media that is on the FTP is not for North American English. We are working to get that posted on the FTP site ASAP. In the meantime, you can find the CS6 MC media from: http://www.adobe.com/downloads/
    [Note: Getting media from that page requires the use of the Adobe Download Assistant which is very consumer focused. Sorry about that.]
    Second, in order to have the ability to login properly with a Creative Cloud for Teams account the system needs to have the latest copy of Adobe Application Manager installed. If you do not do this step the end user will be prompted for a serial number.
    Unfortunately the Adobe Application Manager can’t be packaged with AAMEE nor is it a native installer. I know, I know! Here are the links to the Adobe Application Manager installers:
    Windows: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4773
    Mac: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4774
    It can be installed from command line by:

  • Issue with magsafe/charging (blinks green, amber, off)

    Having a quirky issue with my mid-2009 Macbook Pro.
    A month or so ago, I began having an issue with my macbook charging. When the computer is up and running and I plug in the magsafe it will say "Calculating..." and then say "Not Charging" and then switch to battery use. It constantly does this as long as the magsafe is connected. The lights on the magsafe will constantly cycle from green to amber to no light.
    At first, it would do it a few times then it would start charging. Now it constantly does this without ever stopping. I was editing video the other day for a while and it never stopped the cycle.
    Thinking it was the battery, I took it into the Apple Store last week and got a new battery because it had been saying "Service battery" for a while and the battery would only last about 20 minutes on a charge. So I just thought the battery finally refused to charge.
    But the problem still exists.
    The magsafe is new (only 3 months old) and here's the quirky thing: the computer will charge if it's asleep (lid closed) or shut down completely. No blinking lights at all. It will charge as long as it's asleep or shut down. So I don't think it's the charger. But as soon as you hit the power button to starting booting up, it will blink.
    I have reset the SMC a couple times actually, but no change.
    Is there something software/firmware related that I haven't tried? Any insight or suggestions would be greatly appreciated before I take it back to the Apple Store (which is about an hour away).
    Thanks!
