I have the new HTC One M8, rooted, with latest TWRP, and I managed to possibly get myself in a pickle. I'll explain what I was doing, because I'm not actually sure what could have happened.
I've been working on boot animations and trying to see what this phone can do. I wanted to see what the phone was thinking while playing a boot animation, so I installed CatLog and aLogcat. CatLog was showing a tremendous amount of information, but would crash if I tapped in the search field. I noticed a lot of wifi information, so I turned on plane mode. That helped, though GPS came on soon after, which I wasn't actually aware was normal, but I tried to turn that off too, via the stock settings shortcuts in top right of the notification bar. It refused to disable, so I went further into settings and tried to disable it for location access. When the GPS continued to appear to be in use, I got annoyed and rebooted the phone (hold power> restart). Now, my phone seems to freeze at the end of the boot animation.
I rebooted a couple of times to be sure it wasn't a fluke, both plugged in and unplugged. My next reaction was to wipe dalvik and cache and reboot. Same behavior. What now?
I have not yet made a nandroid backup, as I haven't made any mods to my phone, well accept for unhiding power saving mode and extreme power saving mode in the settings, but they have remained disabled and the phone has run fine for a week or more since.
I'd love to not have to wipe data, for obvious reasons, but is there any other options to try before this? Is there possibly anything wrong with the radio with the behavior I described before rebooting it?
