Lines across screen nothing else topic

So I recently was on stock 4.4.2. Sometimes my screen would freeze, lines would go across the screen vertically & horizontally but I could still see some of the screen I was on. I would simply Hold Pwr VolUp VolDown and reboot and screen proceeded to work. Then i decided to goto Android L. I already had the 4.4.4 firmware but updated to the 5.0 firmware. I then installed the liquid smooth rom. This kept happening and eventually got scared and went back to the backup I had made of stock rom. Then I went to CM12. I liked it alot almost no bugs. But this kept happening. I later began to experience something different. Only vertical lines. Each time they are different. I once waited for it to boot and messed with the volume rockers and heard it go down and then vibrate. So im guessing system still works. I dont know where to go from here. Heres a pic of what Im getting when I try to startup.

Sometimes it is a bit of blue on the side. I know my screen isnt fully dead because sometimes when it starts to decrease in brightness after I booted I touch it and brightness goes back up for a little. Also when I turn it off its black and when I turn it on its the vertical lines. They arent the same each time and sometimes when I boot they become just 4 or 5 fat vertical bars. I am S-off & rooted. I have ADB and fastboot but I never had plugged it into my computer on this rom so i never had time to allow it, but I did turn on usb debugging. I once made it to hbot, the top was a white color and I hit power, then VolDown three or two times and power again and it looked like it rebooted. I bought it from Amazon and their customer support is great. Anyway to get a new one without them knowing I messed with it? Did installing the custom rom trip anything? Last time I was in hboot it was Official and Unlocked. I didnt but it unlocked, it happened when I used firewater. Also if I smash my screen and sent it to HTC(Ive had it for only like ~40 days)would they go digging and find I had a custom rom and flip out on me? All help is appreciated. Also as stated above I believe I never tripped the tampered flag and do have a working nandroid backup. Thanks for your help :)

[Q] Automatically connected to home WiFi but no Internet (nothing works!) topic

Hi all, as noted in subject, occasionally I am connected to WiFi but I get no active connection (nothing comes in or goes out). The only way I remedy this is disabling/enabling WiFi and as this is a small annoyance, any reason this happens? I have an RT-66U router as well, if it matters.

Using a Rogers Samsung Galaxy Note 4, stock ROM, no modifications done to the device.

Thanks and happy holidays.

Need Help w/ One M8 - Flash seems ok, but nothing takes topic

Hey guys, I sold my One M8 to my little brother's friend a few months ago. It's Unlocked, S=Off, and SuperCID with the following:

HBOOT = 3.16.0.0000
RADIO = 0.56.20.0321
OpenDSP - V38.2.2-00542-M8974.0311

TWRP V2.7.0.2

Since he's had it, he says he's only flashed Liquidsmooth, MIUI, and the stock rom. He swears the phone was running great for the past month or so on the stock rom. According to him, he hasn't flashed anything in at least a month. Last night, he plugged it up like usualand woke up to the phone completely powered off. When he booted it, it boots normally and soon after unlocking it, it reboots. This has been the case since I received it back from him (to fix). It's stuck in a bootloop that I cannot fix. Shortly after booting the rom (stock), it will reboot.

What I've tried:

• Flashing a new rom in TWRP.


• Wiping everything in TWRP (including system w/ and w/o the system partition mounted)


• Fixing permissions in TWRP


• Flashing SuperSu in TWRP (don't ask why, Googled it and someone said it fixed theirs)

All of this just continues to reboot to the same stock rom that it was already on. Shortly after booting, it would reboot as if I'd made no changes, wipes, etc.

So I figured I'd update TWRP. I downloaded TWRP_Recovery_2.8.2.1_M8_CPTB.img and flashed it in fastboot (without using fastboot oem rebootRUU) It was successful (or so it seemed). When I reboot recovery it still shows 2.7.0.2. So I downloaded ruuM8_TWRP_2_7.zip, tried to flash it from fastboot but when I "Fastboot oem rebootRUU" it jumps back to the bootloop so I put it on the ext_sdcard and renamed it to 0P6BIMG.zip. Hboot flashed it successfully but still the version didn't change.

So after all has failed, let's flash the stock RUU......So I grabbed this RUU - http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2727831, renamed it to 0P6BIMG.zip and put in on the external sdcard (remember fastboot just kicks me into a bootloop when I fastboot oem rebootRUU). Using the sd card method, It took forever to flash the system partition, extracting and installing about a half dozen times. Eventually everything passed and it prompted me to press power up to reboot. AND IT BOOTS BACK TO THE SAME LOCK SCREEN.....AND REBOOTS AFTER A FEW SECONDS. I've flashed the stock RUU several times now with the same results. It's as if this phone can't flash anything although it acts as if it flashes successfully.

Anybody have any experience with this? Any suggestions are appreciated.
