[Q] Chinese Dual Sim Version ROM help. topic

Hi, I am in dire need of help right now. I recently purchased a HTC One M8 from china (Dual sim) and wanted to convert it to either the international version (with htc sense) or the GPE.
However, all the custom ROMs I have tried don't seem to be working. My phone is rooted and the bootloader is unlocked, but it is still S-On. I'm not ready to pay for sunshine since I'm not confident that it will help my situation.

Currently my phone has no operating system according to the bootloader, and I have been unable to boot into any custom ROMs I have installed.
Being the dual sim version, there is next to no stock or custom roms to be found on xda developers, so now all I want is to revert it back to its stock rom. (I stupidly forgot to back things up before flashing custom recovery and custom roms.)

Can anybody out there help me find the file(s) I need? I don't care if I have to live with no google apps, but if someone could help me out there too that would be awesome :)

Not sure if this info will be useful, but my bootloader says:

*** TAMPERED ***
*** UNLOCKED ***
M8_DUGL PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-3.18.0.0000
RADIO-1.19.30306251.17_2G
OpenDSP-v38.2.2-00542-M8974.0311
OS-
eMMC-boot 2048MB
Jul 17 2014,19:12:07.27809

My Phone's CID is HTCCN703, and I have TWRP v2.7.1.0 installed, since the newer versions didn't work.

I'm relatively a newbie - I've done this rooting/flashing custom rom stuff on 3 or 4 phones before but never ran into any trouble, so help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance, and I apologise if I'm posting this in the wrong place, or if someone has asked the same/similar question before. If that's the case please direct me there :)

[Q] Htc One E8 dual sim camera issue topic

Hi,
I have a HTC One E8 dual sim. The current firmware is 4.4.2.
I am facing issues with the video camera. Whenever i try to take a video, and click on the video camera button, there is just a blip on the screen but the video capture doesn't start. Even if i press the button again and again, the same thing happens. If i restart my phone, and then try to capture a video, it captures the video fine. But some time after the restart if i again go to the camera and switch to video camera and try to record, nothing happens.

Can anyone help me out with this issue?

Dual Led flash not working topic

Hi everyone,

A friend bought a g3 today with lollipop version, and we just found out that the flash is not working.

We tried to install a torch application and a diagnostic app. But the dual Led don't turn on.

I don't think that flashing the phone will change anything, I'm afraid that it can be hardware.

Do you think that the dual Led can be replaced?

Thank you for reading , we really need your help...

Naming dial buttons on dual topic

Sure that this is obvious but cannot find it.
Is it possible to have the call buttons that select Sim 1 or 2 on the dual phone show a name (like work, private),?
Had dual Moto G and that was simply done via settings menu.

[REVIEW] Teclast X89 Baytrail Tablet Dual OS (Windows & Android) topic

Hi all!

i wrote reviews for two devices that are very interesting on checking together.

iPega 9023 rev2 -> Telescopic bluetooth controller for smartphones/phablets/tablets and standalone usage.
Teclast X89

There is a summary of the Teclast X89 Device. (sorry, but i can´t post complete article here, due the limitations of the characters by message on this forum)
__________________________________________________ _____________________________
[REVIEW] Teclast X89 Baytrail Tablet Dual OS (Windows & Android)

Acknowledgments

To Geekbuyingstore for send me a sample of their product Teclast X89 to test it and write this review.

Note about this review

This article is the first part of the main review of the device. Currently i get bricked the device when trying to update/install a clean windows version, and i can´t keep testing for now, until i found the way to recover it

When i get the device unbricked (if i get this), i will post a second part with steps for recovery, firmware update, tips and tricks for this device.

This article is based on general usage of the device, and for windows get many videos of games running directly on the device itself, for showing what you can expect of this.

For technical info and benchmarking on windows, when i get this device operative again, i will update this article with these sections.

Apologize if the article is not enough informative as you can expect. I'll do my best to bring a second part with more info about this device.

Product showcase(Checking of the external view of the package)

First of all, i never mention about packaging of the store that sent to me their articles, because usually i don´t consider interesting to mention, but this time i will do an exception because i get so pleased about this point.

For this review, Geekbuying sent to me two devices (but i wrote in different articles) that correspond to a suggested (by me) combo for use together:

• Tablet Teclast X89


• iPega 9023 controller

Both of them come in the same package, but fully protected, first with the typical plastic with bubbles, covering all the content:

Then, there is a bag with protective system for avoiding shocking of the devices.

The package arrives without any kind of problems, with the original packaging of the devices in perfect condition.

I wanted to remark this because is not usual that stores give this attention on the devices they send.

Now, back to the device itself. the packaging of it is simple, but all main texts are in chinese.

In the front we found the name of the product (Teclast tPad), and the Intel logo, that give to us a main clue about what is inside.

Back part is the description of the product in chinese

Note that there is no info about the specific model of the tablet (Teclast X89)

Inside we found the basic distribution of the package

Product information

According with the manufacturer, or searching info on web pages, we can found many sources of information about the device and sometimes these information may be not consistent (may be different from one web page to other), and this may cause some confusion for anybody that wants to get info about this product.

On this section i will post the info i get from the manufacturer (or is not possible, the web page that i consider more reliable), listing only the relevant points for a tech analysis of the product, and omit these points that don´t get any relevant info about the device (as many time we found on many pages, things such video capabilities, mail capabilities, etc, that really are software based features that we can install on the device, and not a real feature of the device itself)

I did not found the official specs on Teclast webpage. There is the specs of the previous version (X89HD), but not for this specific device (Teclast X89, or Teclast X89 Retina Display)
