I'm using an LG G2. I'm curious about this procedure. When I make a backup of the Kernel with flashify (why I can't choose a folder I want, btw) I get a file without any extension. Is it a boot.img, then? But I've read it isn't enough to flash a kernel, there should be modules too. Does it mean flashify doesn't backup them? So if I change another Kernel and modules, how can I use it to restore old one?
[Android Apps and Games] kedar512:
No, you can't use this file for flashing.

If you want boot.img then take backup of boot using any recovery.

If you want modules then use root explorer and copy system >lib>modules and use any meta inf script to make it flashable in recovery.

I made a zip using this procedure and I used meta inf folder of faux kernel zip.

It works
[Android Apps and Games] cgollner:
Actually, if you backup using Flashify, it backups the boot partition, so it's a boot.img file, although it doesn't have the .img extension.

All the rest, is as you said :)
[Android Apps and Games] OsitKP:
The app doesn't work properly on CM12. When I try to download the Franco kernel It always says "Something went wrong...". But it works fine on Kitkat. Can you fix it? Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] cgollner:
I use it with Android 5.0 Lollipop on the Nexus 5 and Nexus 10, and it works fine. Is your ROOT working 100%? Which device?
[Android Apps and Games] OsitKP:
Nexus 7 3G. It is rooted surely. This item (Download Franco Kernel) does not work on AOSP 5.0.1 and CM12 (5.0.2). All other features work properly.
[Android Apps and Games] cgollner:
Oh, the download is failing. I thought the flashing was broken. Maybe Franco's server is experiencing issues?
[Android Apps and Games] OsitKP:
The server is OK. And I wrote that when I start on 4.4.4 kernel download works. The problem appears only on 5.0.1 and 5.0.2.
[Android Apps and Games] cgollner:
Just tried it on Android 5.0.1 on my Nexus 5, and worked fine. Try removing the app from recents, then try again.
[Android Apps and Games] OsitKP:
I even uninstalled the app. No go.

Maybe some bugs in AOSP and CM resources?
[Android Apps and Games] cgollner:
It's kind of weird.. can't really answer =/

Merry Christmas and thanks for Flashify. It works better than anything else of its kind. So handy! I've purchased most of your apps. Unclouded is brilliant.

I used this on my xperia ZR running 4.4.4 Kk. When I try to backup my current recovery, the app keeps on freezing and force closing
[Android Apps and Games] pitastrudl:
Still happening, with TWRP 2.8.3.0. Any ideas why? are there any kind of logs i can provide
[Android Apps and Games] steviemch:
Another update and still no material design for what is one of the most indispensable root apps around. Yeah it's not a big deal... except it is. I've asked a few times so this'll be the last, but come on, unclouded is a great app, but IMO doesn't compare to this. Give flashify some material love and attention too. It looks outdated and feels as if it's getting left behind.

[Android Apps and Games] cgollner:
Next update will probably be with material design, but honestly I don't it's a priority at all for this app.
[Android Apps and Games] bdizzle1686:
Material design isn't really a big deal, n honestly, not everyone likes material that much. IMO, as long as the FUNCTIONALITY of this app is maintained (which the dev has been great on) , that's all that matters, not how it looks or how pretty it is. I'm sure he'll get around to it when he has time. Function over form.
[Android Apps and Games] steviemch:
To be fair, I really shouldn't come on the internet when I've had a drink and not in the best of moods.

I don't care what it looks like as long as it works as flawlessly as it does.
[Android Apps and Games] steviemch:
I obviously do or I wouldn't have posted my drunken little rant lol. At the end of the day Material design isn't a priority for ANY app, yet they're all getting it. I'll use unclouded as an example again. Everyone gushes about how great it looks. Flashify goes down as one of my favourite and most respected root apps. It's functionality has always been second to none, why shouldn't it look good/up to date as well? Anyway, last you'll hear of it from me. Peace, love and rainbow farting unicorns to all.

Moto G 2014 support

I tried to use Flashify to backup/restore recovery img to my Moto G 2014.

I managed to flash every downloaded img file I tried (stock or TWRP recoveries). However, reverting to backups seems impossible.

It seems that flashing the backups takes too little time and then I'm unable to enter recovery in any way I tried. However, attempting to flash again a downloaded img worked fine.

I noticed that backup img files created by Flashify are a bit smaller that the corresponding "official" img files. Shouldn't they be at least the same size?
[Android Apps and Games] cgollner:
Hmm.. could be some error calculating the size by Flashify.
[Android Apps and Games] SolGarlic:
Is there anything I could do to help?

Should I use the "Bug Reports" feature of this forum? I only noticed it moments ago.

Hey [MENTION=4446775]cgrollner[/MENTION] , I'm on a Verizon htc one m7, 4.4.3 great app. Quick question. I know flashify works flashing twrp, but do u know if it will work to flash my stock recovery img? I have downloaded the correct recovery for my Rom in preparation for taking the lollipop update when it comes. Can u, or anybody using a htc one verify if it'll flash the stock recovery correctly?

The backup files are kept under the "Android" tree in your device's internal storage. Look for "/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.cgoliner.flashify/files/flashify-backup/" or the equivalent location for your configuration.

[Android Apps and Games] ryan4a:
Maybe this has already been answered, but does anyone know if this app can be used to flash a radio.img, system.img, and bootoader.img along with the boot.img? I'm a bit of a noob, and I want to upgrade my Nexus 6 to 5.1 once the factory images are released (and the modified boot.img to remove encryption). However, I'd like to do this

without the use of a computer

. I would use the Nexus Root Toolkit, but for some reason my PC no longer recognizes my device (even though I've tried EVERYTHING to fix, including different cables, ports, drivers, restarts etc.). Maybe the 5.1 update will fix.

Or should/could I flash all images through a .zip file from the app?

Thanks

I had the same problem with my HUAWEI MT7-L09. You can enter the Download mode using ADB and flash a proper Recovery using LG flashing tool by following the next steps:

>Download package: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2wyI9E11DldY2FweGMtVDM4YUE/view?usp=sharing.

>Install adb1.3.exe (Press “Y” and “Enter” for all)

>Install AdbDriverInstaller.exe

>Install Driver DriverSetup.exe

>Connect the device to computer

>Setting – About phone – Build number click it for 3-5 times

>Setting – Develop options – USB debugging enabled

>Disconnect the device – Connect the device to computer authorize the Developer Mode

>WIN+R – CMD – D: – CD MT7 – adb devices (show something like Y9KF0923F898343 device)

>adb reboot-bootloader

>Flash your Recovery using LG flashing tool you use.

The attached ZIP file is for Huawei MT7-L09 but you can only extract ADB drivers to use with your LG. Don't use the attached run.bat as it flashes Huawei MT7-L09 recovery only. Hope it helps..

---------- Post added at 12:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:45 PM ----------

I would also like to report that Flashify couldn't flash Stock Recovery image of Huawei MT7-L09 properly. It rendered my Recovery useless and had to follow the above steps to reflash the Recovery image. Hope developer can solve this in future releases. It is worth to mention that the app could backup Recovery and Kernel images though.

Please add TWRP 2.8.5.3
[Android Apps and Games] cgollner:
I'll have to update the app for that, because they updated their servers. Will try today.
[Android Apps and Games] Mike B.:
Until [MENTION=4446775]cgoliner[/MENTION] has a chance to switch to the new TWRP server, you can download the appropriate version (2.8.6.0?) for your device from

http://twrp.me/Devices/

. After that you can simply flash it and make backup copies using the current Flashify.
[Android Apps and Games] aavvaallooss:
Do NOT update to 2.8.6. Unable to make a sucessful nandroid
[Android Apps and Games] Mike B.:
It's probably an issue specific to your device. 2.8.6 works fine here (SM-N900T) for full backups/restores. You should consider discussing this in the appropriate TWRP thread.

[Android Apps and Games] Djiban:
Hi every one

Flashify installed on my Huawei Mediapad X1 7D-501L for a while.

Recently It doesn't show me my previous recvery backups any more (maybe because I change in the system the basic data wrting location from phone to SD card?).

Anyway I'm wondering where in the phone the flashify backup files are usually stored. Unable to find even with a root file explorer.

Thx!

(and of course I've now turn cloud bakcup on!)
[Android Apps and Games] cgollner:
Hi, sdcard backups are at /sdcard/Android/data/com.cgollner.flashify/...
[Android Apps and Games] Djiban:
Thx for super fast answer. As I know the folder name, I did transfer the file from my phone storage to my SD storage, and they now appear in flashify :)

Now I'll check how to make a copy to the cloud as I did identify myself in flashify's dropbox settings.

[Android Apps and Games] cgollner:
the problem seems to be the "cm_" before the falcon. Can you try to remove it, reboot, then try flashify again?
[Android Apps and Games] sjandroiddeveloper:
Isn't it supposed to be there because I have flashed cm 12 on my device
[Android Apps and Games] cgollner:
CM shouldn't change the device name in build.prop. That brakes flashify, because the app uses the device name from build.prop to find the matching TWRP version.
[Android Apps and Games] sjandroiddeveloper:
Just one thing

Since I don't know much about changing things in build.prop, does changing the device name cause any bad effect
[Android Apps and Games] cgollner:
Not sure if CM uses it .. I'll update the app to support more custom build.prop names.
[Android Apps and Games] sjandroiddeveloper:
You could also provide an option for Manuel selection of device

[Android Apps and Games] Mike B.:
It might be useful to provide the "pick device manually" feature even if the device is recognized. For example, I have a "hltetmo", but I might want to try a "hlte" recovery. It would also be useful to see the actual file name that will be downloaded, such as "twrp-2.8.6.0-hltetmo-4.4.zip" or "twrp-2.8.6.0-hltetmo-4.3.zip". I'm just concerned that without it, it might be too easy for users to inadvertently download the wrong file.... and blame Flashify! ;)

it doesnt do anything after install it reboots and then the notification light flashes every colour it has and doesnt start up. i had to take battery out to get it to start up
[Android Apps and Games] Mike B.:
I suggest you let Flashify find the latest current TWRP ("twrp-2.8.6.0-d855.img"?) and see if it works better for you.
[Android Apps and Games] checasey:
tried that too it does the same thing after installing and then selecting reboot to recovery it loads up and in the top left it says few things and in a box it says secure booting error
[Android Apps and Games] Mike B.:
At least you're now trying the current version. If your device can't boot that latest recovery, a matter apparently unrelated to Flashify, I suggest you discuss the matter in the appropriate LG/G3 or TWRP thread. A quick Google search shows that your trouble is not uncommon (especially after a Lollipop update) and might be related to rooting issues. Remember that at best Flashify can only copy the file you select into your recovery partition, it has no control over anything else.
[Android Apps and Games] checasey:
the phone is rooted correctly and i have the correct file.....
[Android Apps and Games] Mike B.:
Then I'm not sure what issue, if any, you have with Flashify. If everything is correct and you have the recovery and firmware you want, life is good... ;)
[Android Apps and Games] checasey:
The problem is my phone (which is rooted its a LG G3 D855 running the stock Lollipop 5.0) does not boot into recovery using this method on flashify! So life is not good my dude!
