[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chronicfathead:
I'm stuck and wondering if someone could help guide me.

I had root and the latest TWRP installed.

What I did:

Enter TWRP

Advanced wipe, selecting system, data, cache and dalvik.

Installed a test rom.

Reboot

Now stuck with the following screen

If I power off and try holding the power and vol down buttons I just get the same screen.

If I connect to my Windows 7 x64 PC it now shows up as a QHSUSB_BULK device.

I've tried following the instructions to flash back to stock using the Flash tool, but nothing happens. If I click on the Information button, it says Port USB not found.

Any idea's?

EDIT:

If I click on start in Flash Tool, it does carry on, but I get stuck with it asking me to connect the usb cable. I think it's the QHSUSB drivers I need?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chronicfathead:
Holy COW.....

I've been trying to do it since last night (30+ times) and couldn't get it to show up. I had given up, thinking I had to send to LG, but I have just managed to get in. Practice and perseverance is what you need. I will now practice getting into recovery this way!

Just to confirm:

Hold Power and Volume Down buttons till phone reboots.

As soon as you see LG appear on the phone let go of the buttons.

Within 1/2 a second, press the power button again.

At the prompts, press the power button twice as if you are doing a factory reset. If you don't see the Factory Reset screen, start from 1 again.

Enter TWRP and breathe.

I might leave my phone alone for a while now, as I cant take the pressure!

I had said to myself I would run stock on this phone, but once again I rooted, and then put recovery on. I'm getting too old for the excitement!

[Moto X General] glitch003:
I just wanted to let everyone know that you can buy generic NFC tags and the Moto X will program them to be skip dots. I bought these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/261284351324?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

For about $1 each it's pretty fun to play with them. The only downside is that once I programmed one as a skip dot, I was unable to put any other data (URLS, etc) on it like I was with the unprogrammed stickers.

But if you got a Moto X developer edition like me and didn't get any free skip dots, this is a pretty cheap substitute.
[Moto X General] linuxgator:
How do you program them, and is only the developer edition able to do so?

How To Make The Lockscreen Transparent​

This guide will help you make any Gingerbread lockscreen transparent

1- For ease of use I have created the transparent image so download it from the attachment and unzip it (ldpi only)

To find out how I did it and to create one for other screen sizes click the spoiler below

To create the transparent lockscreen image

1- Decompile framework-res.apk

2- Open res/drawable-ldpi (or mdpi/hdpi for other devices)

3- Look at zzzzzzzz_default_lockscreenw.jpgand take note of its image dimensions (you can do this by opening it in paint as it says image dimensions at bottom of screen)

4- Open an image editor like photoshop and create a blank transparent image the same dimensions as what you just noted

5- Save image as zzzzzzzz_default_lockscreenw.png (note must be png to keep transparency)

2- Decompile framework-res.apk with Apktool

3- Open res/drawable-ldpi

4- Delete zzzzzzzz_default_lockscreenw.jpg

5- Copy zzzzzzzz_default_lockscreenw.png from attachment or what you have created to res/drawable-ldpi (or mdpi/hdpi on other devices)

6- Open res/layout/zzz_keyguard_screen_lockscreenwallpaper.xml in notepad++

7- Change android:background to ="#00000000"

8- Recompile the folder

9- Delete the compiled apk

9- Unzip the original unmoddifed framework-res.apk

10- Copy META-INF and AndroidManifest.xml and paste them to YourDecompiledFolder/build/apk

11- Recompile the folder again

12- Put in a Flashable Zip and Flash in CWM with system mounted
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 Themes and Apps] Himan Boro:
awesome...its transparent But weneva i press the locked screen to unlock it turns black..

I want fully transparent how to do that?
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 Themes and Apps] TheFixItMan:
did you set android:background="#00000000" in zzz_keyguard_screen_lockscreenwallpaper.xml

so the line should look like this

<RelativeLayout android:id="@id/lockscreenwallpaper_root" android:background="#00000000" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 Themes and Apps] Himan Boro:
yes i did..n even chnged d zzzz lockscreen....but its transparent,it nly turns black.wen i touch on locked screen to unlock it...
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 Themes and Apps] TheFixItMan:
I assume you used the png I gave in the attatchment and deleted the jpg that was there already

I wrote this guide over 6months ago when I was on stock rom - I use cm7 now so cant really go back over it

and I think it only works on the default stock lockscreen so if you have changed the lockscreen style that might be why

you can upload your unmodified framwork-res.apk and i'll do it for you and you can see if it makes any difference
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 Themes and Apps] aakpSolder:

download my flashable zip template

http://d-h.st/sr9

for pc use

open it with winrar

open system folder

right click and create a folder

call it app

open app folder

drag and drop SystemUI.apk in the app folder

select ok to add it to archive

put zip on phone and flash in cwm with system mounted

for phone use

unzip the flashable zip template with zarchiver app (or any other zip app you can get from playstore)

open system folder

create a folder called app

open app folder

copy your SystemUI.apk to the app folder

rezip the meta-inf and system folder back up

flash in cwm with system mounted

not working... (255) installation aborted... i think i do it right... but still aborted... help me sir...
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 Themes and Apps] TheFixItMan:
Are using a galaxy y 5360/duos

if you are using another phone it may not work as update binary might be different

actually I gave you slightly wrong instructions before because I forgot in this guide we are working with framework-res.apk not SystemUI.apk

Its exactly the same except you put framework-res.apk into the framework folder in the flashable zip template so you dont need to create the app folder

if you are using a 5360 it will work as long as you have added the correct file inside the correct folder and if zipping on phone zipped it correctly and you are flashing it in cwm and not stock recovery

error 255 means wrong binary so I assume you are not using a galaxy y - In that case simply take any custom rom zip for your phone and copy the update binary from the meta.inf folder and place it in the flashable zip

or you could push the apk manually - just copy framework-res.apk using a root browser to system/framework and set permissions to rw-r-r and restart

as ever make a nandroid backup first

I hope the OP won't be disappointed if I share here too my finding on this same thread topic.

An alternative way, quick and very easy way *that works on Galaxy Y stock ROM* (and *eventually* other ROMs especially if based on stock ROM), is to do just this:

locate (or create) the following file and disable the read permissions

I accidentally flashed the doom kernel that I forgot to delete off of my phone when trying to flash something else now my phone won't turn on. When I try to power it on it just vibrates and when I try to boot into recovery it just vibrates 3 times. Every now and then I can get the led to light up when it's being charged and I'm holding the power button. But still doesn't power on fully.

Try to flash stock ftf or another kernel via flashtool.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] anhtuankd:
you try to flash a different kernel is not considered
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gwodus:
Actually, if all you flashed was a wrong kernel, then you don't need to reflash a whole ftf with flashtool, given your bootloader is unlocked. Only flash the correct kernel in fastboot mode:

Unplug und plug in the USB-cable. Hold Vol+ and the ON-button at the same time for a couple seconds until you feel a single vibration. Let go of the ON-button but keep the Vol+ pressed. You should be in fastboot mode again indicated by the blue LED.

If that works, you can reflash the original kernel.elf or boot.img with fastboot in order to get the phone working again. That way you won't loose any data.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] 3-dUrine:
i've just done the same thing

did you fix it?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] tomatos:
Hold Vol+ and connect the usb cable that is the right way of Fastboot mode. The Flashtool mode is HOLD Vol- and connect the cable.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ScethN:
Lt30at bootloader isn't unlockable. So I think you should flash stock kernel only.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Durteedee:

No way to remove the lock symbol without root and xposed framework + wanam's module. Without root there is no way at all.

There is also no way to go to stock without flashing the stock files which wipe data. Sorry to give you so much bad news amigo!

You could use Helium - App Sync and Backup which is like Titanium Backup but doesn't require root. That's basically your last resort for saving data.
