[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adrian412:
(I hope this is the right forum for this question :confused:)

I just rooted my Note 3 and I can't find a CWM Recovery for the AT&T version. I've seen ones for N900, but I doubt that it's for the AT&T variant.

And Is there a way to flash custom roms without a recovery like CWM?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StaticMatt:
No to all of the above. There is an AT&T specific forum for all AT&T related Dev but you'll notice no recoveries and no ROMs yet, only root methods for now.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Khizar:
Your phone has a locked bootloader. That's why..you don't have custom recovery..

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] faslane:
Not available still. Safestrap is the best you'll get out there still and it works great.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryaske:
I dont know why it wasnt installing but I seem to have it now (safe strap). Since it includes twrp, im able to do full backups.. all set for my needs

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] faslane:
Bingo. It's a bit different but as long as I can backup I don't care and TiBackup isn't the same and frankly I don't like it at all. There's always issues with titanium so I quit using it long ago.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryaske:
I feel like they both have their place. TWRP/CWM image files only restore the whole system. That means you cant even restore the backup to a different model phone. (I use this between warranty replacements of the same make/model)

TWRP also lets me make a backup of the system "as it is"... so if an update is forced to me, I can always just restore a backup to get back to the last one. IT also covers me if I change a setting that screws things up. Especially with SafeStrap .... I can always keep myself running on a virtual partition and just back it up / restore that one to stock as necessary to bail myself out.

TiBu allows me to back up any single file or app, and restore it (AND ALL IT'S DATA) on any android phone what so ever. No reboots, no touching any other files. Sometimes that app isnt ready to work on that new model ... or sometimes system apps cant be restored ...... but otherwise, it is invaluable to get my setup onto the next/upgraded phone with as little setup as is necessary. IT also lets me save older versions of my apps and restore them as necessary. Plus incremental backups means even if my phone and sd card eat **** (lost the phone and not able to recover it), I will have my apps backed up on dropbox. All I need is a new physical Note3+sd card, 2 hours to restore everything, and I'm back in business

I am a paid user of both TWRP and TiBu for this reason

The downside of these apps? They both require you to root. That means you technically void the warranty on your phone. However, there are plenty of methods available to remove all traces .. so in the end, if you care enough to spend the time, you can transform this phone between stock/unrooted/normal/warranty in effect and modified/rooted/customized/warranty void. At will
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] darkynk:
I was playing around with pimp my rom and probably sis something wrong and ended up in a boot loop. Well I did a back up right before,just to be safe, and when I tried to restore it says md5 mismatch. (I had 3 different back ups but same thing with each). Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] meekrawb:
Are you using CWM? Did you rename the backup folders? If the folders have spaces in them you will get a mismatch.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] darkynk:
Yeah I just renamed them, but I undid it and got it to restore thanks. But I have another problem, the xda app is acting up, when I wanna reply it won't let me hit the previous text to quote unless I click the absolute very bottom. Idk if anyone else has had that problem

Hey everyone, I'm new here and have been trying to find out what's going on with the i717 in regards to kitkat rom development. Anyone have any updates or know how soon we can expect to see some nightlies or any types of builds?

Thanks! :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
Has it even been released yet?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] captemo:
I will edit my original post here cause I was a bit of an A-hole. this was you first post and I didn't want your first impression to be as nobody here wants to help. of course if you had already read the previous, than I am too late and can only apologize.

a few spoken rules in one of the threads for newbies here.

1. run a search, maybe the question has already been asked before

2. read, read, read

3. help yourself first, as nobody is going to do the work for you.

there are thousands of people that are more than willing to help here, but you should be mindful of repeating questions as some folks can get irritated. it is usually someone that asks a specific question about an issue that was just addressed 2 post up or on the previous page.

making a personal request for an immediate feature that may have just been announce can also annoy some developers. some to the point where they have stopped developing.

good luck and remember to read
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] amcateesd:
Thanks, I didn't read until after the edit, however from browsing around here I was worried I would just be told to shut the **** up etc...

I have tried looking all over the place for info on a 4.4 rom and if people are working on one for the i717. So far I can't find anything. I was just wondering if anyone knew if the phone would be getting a ROM or left behind.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ddochi11:
Our latest official release was 4.1.2.

As you can see, we now have ROMs on 4.2.2, 4.3 and 4.3.1. I have not seen any devs "promise" a 4.4 rom, and I don't expect them to.

But, the 4.4 source just dropped few days ago, and I am pretty sure that they are looking at it, at the very least. If history is any indication, I would say we are going to get 4.4 roms eventually. Developing a rom is hard work, so please just wait.

Asking for an ETA might be irritating for devs, if you are not contributing to the development. And if you are contributing to the development, you should already know the answer to the question.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] amcateesd:
Sorry, I don't mean to annoy anyone. I only came here because no other place had info and was told to go to XDA. I am not trying to rush anyone and I know these things are a ton of work. Like I said I was only wondering if people thought at some point 4.4 would come to the i717 not plz give me rom now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dparrothead1:
Jamie has gotten CM11 to fully build for the i717 but he hasn't completely debugged it yet.....I would think he will be posting it soon.

He posted the preview in General. I haven't been able to flash it personally because I use TWRP (and only CWM works at this point) but you're welcome to check it out. Flashed CWM Recover to try.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] farfetch:
hey guys, today I received my Nexus 5, I tried an AOSP rom, but gps did't work, so I used "Nexus 5 restore" found somewhere here (in a 3ad with title ending with "dead or alive").

After this u ran CF-auto-root and I had no problem, I installed some apps like Lightflow, a sidebar and other simple thing I always used.

After this I installed TWRP for try a theme: I did "fastboot erase cache", "fastboot flash recovery twrp" and then erase cache again. I used TWRP file manager for find the zip theme file, I moved it into TWRP/theme renaming it ui.zip.

I rebooted my phone and then, while I was using my pc I noticed display was turned on (maybe I touched it for check notification, but I don't think) and looking at it i noticed I had no signal.

I tried to switch my SIM cards with my Htc One X, other phone still working, N5 still doesn't working.

I tried flashing D821 modem (my version) but with no success. If I try to select the provider inside android setting it still loading, trying to select band by "*#*#4636#*#*" secter menu I have the same result.

Can you help me pls?

P.S.: I have H3g Italy

EDIT: I also noticed I lost my languages from SwiftKey beta (ok, it is a beta, but it still working on my HOX, instead here I can't download languages again neither), and a notification saying something is trying to login to my google account, but if i click, it just disappear (I installed haxsync for facebook photos inside contact and maybe is it, but i don't think)

Can confirm this as well. Been using the extended battery and Sprint back cover for a few months now.

There is a difference between the Sprint and Verizon Back cover. You will need to cut off one of the tabs that holds it in place, a pair of nail clippers works perfectly for this.

Morning, my Exce has suddenly decided to stop reading my 1 gig SD card (A Dane-elec)

Now we have another Exec in the office and it can read my card fine and copy files onto it, also the PC with the card reader can read it.

When I put the card in it doesn't read it but if I push it to come out sometimes I get "This card is not formated" message..but it is.

Is this a send back to 02 job? Then the question is..what are O2 like with scratches? I have a key scratch on the outsite of the case (in the grey bit next to the 02 logo)...i am a bit jumpy since my hinge went in my nokia 9500 and Nokia refused to replace it (gits)

I've decided to try and compile a list of the available stock firmware files for the Nexus 5 so that people have a "one-stop" for all of them.

Notes:

1) If you don't know what they are for, don't try to flash these files. For those that want to flash them, see the thread here by [MENTION=4325732]bitdomo[/MENTION]

2) If you are looking for Google's factory images for the Nexus 5, look here instead.

3) MD5s located on Dev-Host download page (when you click the link).

Standard disclaimer: I take no responsibility if you mess up your device by flashing any of these files.

I only have filenames so i cant confirm they actually exist, but if they do then presumedly both 16/32gb versions exist along with D820/D821 versions.

Formally the D820/D821 are the same device as far as roms go, since the otas to KRT16M are the same for either model.

The filenames make it easy to fill in the blanks if there are others that exist though.
[Nexus 5 General] bitdomo:
Any files for D821? We need a DLL file as well then we can flash it with LGNPST :)

Any news on a working LGNPST .DLL file for the N5?
[Nexus 5 General] bitdomo:
On this site there are rom files for D821 (non amercan modell of nexus5), and on this page there are the DLL files we need. (Maybe we can use DLL file for LG G2)

To download anything you have to register, but you need an invitation code from someone. You can buy invitation code, but you need a chinese credit card.
[Nexus 5 General] David_Vaz:
All DLL free!! ;)

http://lgfirmwares.com/download/LG/DLL/

I downloading with "wget -r http://lgfirmwares.com/download/LG/DLL/" on Terminal ;)
[Nexus 5 General] pogi1100:
Any idea which one the LG G2 uses?

EDIT: So the DLL is on this site. The name of the zip file is LGD820_20131023_LGFLASHv170.zip, can't find it anywhere else. Apparently it's only exclusive to that site. As far as I can tell, each download needs payment T_T. The signup itself is $10 from what I can tell. And the picture shows a special cable... I wonder if you need that as well...
[Nexus 5 General] bitdomo:
Actually we don't need that special cable. I testet that lg flash tool with my lg optimus 2x with an ordenary usb cable to flash firmware. If you look around the lg g2 forum you can see a topic about that how to go back stock with lg flash tool.

What we need is a dll file for d820 or d821 (maybe we can use an lg g2 dll file like in the case of nexus 4 and lg optimus g) and a firware file for both wariant. And we have to figure out which buttons have to be pressed on our turned off nexus 5 while we connect the usb cable to enter Download Mode.

Note that if you use lgflash tool you may loose your imei since that tool reformats everything, it is better to do an efs backup before you do anything.

Last thing. Don't try it if you can go to fastboot, because we don't know that will it work or just end up in a totalbrick. Only use it if you have no other options. Your phone does not turn on, you cant even go to recovery or fastboot. You may can go to Download mode and try to recover your phone with lg flash tool or lgnst. Then if it does not work you can send back to google to ask for a replacement device. Lie to google that you just left your phone on the charger and when you came back to your phone it was bricked.
[Nexus 5 General] pogi1100:
That Chinese website I just linked has both firmware files for the 16GB/32GB D820 as well as another thread for the D821. It also has the DLL that we need (LGD820_20131023_LGFLASHv170.zip).
[Nexus 5 General] bitdomo:
[MENTION=4414119]pogi1100[/MENTION] and [MENTION=1566190]efrant[/MENTION] I managed to get the DLL for D820 from a firend (I think it should work for D821 as well). Maybe it works with LGNPST, but it definitely works with LG Flash Tool 1.8.1
[Nexus 5 General] pogi1100:
NICE. I will try this. Too bad my replacement device has already been shipped.

EDIT: Weird, not working for some reason. All I'm getting is "Device: Unknown mode" when I try to use the HS-USB QDLOADER mode on the device. I think we need the special cable outlined in this picture to put it into a special kind of download mode in order to flash it. Maybe soldering a 910K resistor to a microUSB cable would work, I just don't know which wire requires the resistor. I would try it, but my replacement device has arrived so I will leave it to someone else. This cable SHOULD work.
[Nexus 5 General] bitdomo:
I would not recommend it :D just if you dont have no other choice (including you can't RMA) to bring back your phone to life, but if you want to try it, then you are the only one who responsible for teh damagaes you cause :D.

Here is a tutorial how to use LG flash tool with lg g2. It does not mention the usb cable with 910kOhm resistor. Do the same just for the nexus 5 files :), !!!BACKUP YOUR EFS!!!

If it works share your experiences, if it ends up a brick, then take my deepest sorry :(

Edit: [MENTION=4414119]pogi1100[/MENTION] you have to put your phone into download mode by pressing and holding certain buttons and connecting usb cable maybe. (in case of nexus 4 you have to press and hold volume up and volume down and power button, maybe the same applies for nexus 5), and you also need to install lg drivers
[Nexus 5 General] pogi1100:
Download mode doesn't work for it with a regular cable. It needs that special cable since it's a newer LG phone. When I try to press all volume buttons while turning it on, my computer recognizes the phone as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM41)" which does no good in LG Flash Tool. LG has that special cable (extra resistance) so that it triggers the download mode on the N5 and allows for flashing TOT files through LG Flash Tool as seen here:
[Nexus 5 General] bitdomo:
Method used to achive download mode onnexus 4:

maybe we dont need to push the power key :)
[Nexus 5 General] pogi1100:
I've actually already tried that. I held the buttons for 2 minutes and all I saw was a black screen. The N4 is one year old so maybe LG decided that they didn't need special cables to put it into download mode back then.
[Nexus 5 General] bitdomo:
I see... :(, then we have to make cables or buy it from ebay, but it is good thing that you could not brick your phone yet :D

Edit: [MENTION=4414119]pogi1100[/MENTION] maybe you could try turning off the phone, then press only the volume up while you connect the cable, you could try do the same but with the volume down key. If LG G2 has the option enter download mode, then why should it be missing from nexus 5?
[Nexus 5 General] efrant:
Hey guys, sorry I haven't kept up with this thread. For some reason, I got unsubscribed.

[MENTION=4325732]bitdomo[/MENTION] thanks for posting the files. I'm not entirely sure if the DLL for ht LG Flash Tool is the same as for LGNPST, but it doesn't hurt to try!

For everyone, yes, to enter download mode, hold volume up, and plug the device into your computer (not the ac charger). You should see a screen that says "download mode", and then shortly after, the screen will change to "Firmware update". Now you are in download mode. You should not need any other cables. The only thing is we need to find out if LGNPST can see the device using the LG Flash Tool DLL.

I personally don't have time to be testing all of this stuff out, so if you plan on doing it yourself, make sure you know the risks.
[Nexus 5 General] bitdomo:
I dont have to phone yet, but if the phone really can go to Download mode by the key combination you mentioned, then it shoud work with LGflash tool. (At least it worked with Lg optimus 2x, I tried it yesterday. Firmware flashed correctly. So we dont need that 910kOhm cable to use lgflash tool)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davelikestacos:
So I live in NYC and signed a contract with Sprint last year only to regret it nearly instantly when I saw how crappy the service is around here. The only thing I love about having my Sprint S3 is the ease of rooting and flashing custom ROMs. Now I know the Note 3 is a brand new device, but it seems like Verizon is the only provider that locks their bootloader (Correct me if I'm wrong here) making it currently impossible to flash any kind of custom ROM on the device.

So I figured I'd come here and ask a few questions before taking the jump and cancelling my contract with Sprint and switching to Verizon.

1. Will the device/bootloader ever be unlocked? I notice the S4 on Verizon has a good amount of ROMs and I'm guessing the bootloader was also locked on that when it was first released.

2. How is service in the NYC area?

3. Anyone know if there's any plans to develop AOSP/CM ROMs for the Note 3? I know some of the features of the Note require TouchWiz, but I just like having the option of choosing a AOSP or TW ROM.

Thanks in advance for anyone who chimes in. Again, sorry for the stupid questions, but I don't want to dive in and then be stuck with a device that I can't update or flash something new when I get bored.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] njfoses:
1. Extremely unlikely the bootloader will ever be unlocked. Hashcode is developing/testing safestrap for our device which will allow us to flash tw based roms but more than likely no kernels. In the future software updates may be tied to bootloader updates which could render root and or safestrap useless. If flashing different roms is a priority buy the dev edition when it comes back in stock.

2. Verizons coverage is the best hands down. I live in S Jersey and recently switched from Sprint myself. It's a night and day difference.

3. From what i understand safestrap only allows tw based roms to be flashed. If aosp is important, again buy the dev edition.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VillaCastana321:
Verizons coverage in ny is fine. And to be honest I dont think the bootloader may ever be unlocked or atleast anytime soon
