[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamjimmy:
Yes. That's what Actually worked. Thanks to the guidance of user: xybur.

However I Flashed the Cache from the stock image on 4.4 Kitkat from Google servers on a phone which has been updated to Android 4.4.2.

I was not able to find the cache.img file in the OTA updates of 4.4.1 and 4.4.2 downloads.

So in other words, I have Android 4.4.2 but the Cache.img file flashed from Android 4.4 (base release). Not sure whether that would lead to problems down the road.

Also is clearing the cache partition ALWAYS recommended before sideloading an OTA update manually?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
You're fine. If you were really worried about it you could flash the 4.4 to 4.4.2 zip that's in the general forum ota sticky. That zip patches, it's not the full rom, 4.4. I don't remember if there are any cache patches in it though. As far as clearing the cache before the ota, I've never done that and haven't had any problems.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamjimmy:
Thanks. I did search the 4.4.2 big zip file which is supposed to patch from 4.4 to 4.4.2. I did not find a cache.img in that file. So it seems there is no new cache, so I guess Google patched the existing one.

In any case my phone is ok. Given that I'm on 4.2.2 already, will flashing the zip (which upgrades android from 4.4 to 4.4.2) even work? Doesn't that require the phone to be on 4.4?

Overall, I'm thinking of maybe not doing anything since the phone seems to work fine. I read that the cache is also not critically important to the OS and it only has logs, cache information and such.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdiddy_ub:
Did you use twrp to wipe the cache?? Sometimes it takes a while. its a known bug

It happened to me... Just waited it out like 15 mins.. It went through

Sent from my Nexus 5
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamjimmy:
Nope. I did NOT have a Custom recovery. It was the Stock recovery. My phone was all stock except it was rooted and the bootloader was unlocked. I used CF-Auto Root for this.

I think what threw me off was how much time it took to clear Cache. Whatever device I've handled in the past, it takes 10 seconds to clear cache. With the Nexus 5, I boot into the bootloader (stock recovery), chose the recovery option and then Wipe Cache Partition. Nothing happens for 10 minutes except "Formatting Cache".

At this point, I grew impatient and thought something was wrong. Made the mistake of switching my phone off. And then all hell broke lose. I did not get a signal, no storage was recognized and nothing was accessible. Even factory Reset wasn't working from the bootloader. Every time I went to the bootloader it gave me errors on unable to mount cache, storage not accessible etc etc.

Flashing 4.4 stock image cache saved my life. I was thinking I bricked my phone for good. Won't be messing around with the Cache ever again.

Quick question: Can I do a nandroid backup with Stock recovery? I realize it's easy to do this with CWM or TWRP recoveries, but I have not installed them as yet. Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
You can not do a nandroid with stock recovery
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamjimmy:
Wow. I didn't know that. That may be the single biggest reason to install a custom recovery.

The only reason I did NOT do CWM or TWRP was because I wanted to get OTA updates and be able to sideload them manually.

It seems with custom recoveries one has to flash to stock image every time an OTA comes. With Stock recovery I updated from 4.4 to 4.4.1 and 4.4.2 without any problems. I used adb to sideload the updates and then just used CF-AutoRoot to Reroot (my bootloader was unlocked). Very quick and painless.

Do you recommend installing a custom recovery to replace Stock?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Nachtkrapp:
Hi there,

i've got a HTC Magician, branded as as O2 XDA Mini and put on it the latest ROM, I got here.

I thougt it was unbranded, but unfortunately, it is a T-Mobile ROM. Now I have an O2 device with T-Mobile Software, which i use with an E-Plus sim.

Since there is no E-Plus ROM for the magician, can I put back the O2 software?

Unfortunately, i did not back up the original ROM before upgrading :(

Where could I get it? On the O2 sites I only find ROMs for the O2 Mini S Device.

cheers,

Hey guys i'm confused between g pro n g2. The only thing i need is a better battery life.If i go with g pro i have an option to buy the extended battery from amazon but reviews suggest both the phone are awesome i personally feel lg will give more s/w update to g2 than g pro(s/w update is not much a prob as we have custom rom's :P)

what u guys thing g2 or g pro ?

Thanks for you help :) :confused:
[LG Optimus G Pro] esimon311:
A co worker of mine has the G2 and I have the G Pro,, the G2 is a very nice phone but I prefer the G Pro. Removable battery expandable memory. Love the G Pro hands down.
[LG Optimus G Pro] kongming:
Agree with you.

No expandable memory and replacement battery are BIG NO to me. :)
[LG Optimus G Pro] akash.mahadeshwar:
Thats true expandable memory n battery is the biggest advantage with g pro :)

So I will go with g pro!

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ring_C:
Hi There,

I have an LG/Google Nexus 4 from work, hence it's not rooted nor ROMed.

I was happily using Llama to switch things on and off. I used to switch during nights 3G and WiFi off, and on again at mornings.

Ever since I've installed KitKat (Android 4.4), Llama won't switch WiFi back on at mornings, and only a reboot would help (manually turning on won't help either).

I'm borrowing 2 images I've find somewhere on the net, in order to show what I'm getting. WiFi is actually grayed out, as shown in the lower pic, and always saying "Turning WiFi on..." as on the 1st one.

Does anyone else suffer from the same issue? Can it be solved?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ring_C:
Anyone?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hash87:
I've got exact same issue. No idea how to fix this.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ring_C:
I've upgraded to v4.4.2 since, but no change... :(
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhishavphukan:
Try factory reset. Many people have solved this issue with a reset. If possible for you, try factory reset from stock recovery. Please backup apps using Gobackup or some other app from playstore, contacts usually are best backed up with google.

NOTE: As yoor phone isn't rooted, all your user data will be lost. Backup all you photos and other things with your computer.

To facotry reset using recovery :

1. POWER DOWN THE PHONE.

2. AFTER ITS COMPLETELY OFF, HOLD VOLUME DOWN AND POWER BUTTON AT THE SAME TIME UNTIL THE SCREEN SHOWS BOOTLOADER.

3. USING VOLUME UP OR DOWN, SELECT RECOVERY AND PRESS POWER BUTTON.

4. YOU'LL LAND UP IN RECOVERY WITH AN ANDROID LOGO EXCLAMATION.

5. PRESS VOLUME UP AND POWER BUTTON AT THE SAME TIME UNTIL SOME MENUS SHOW

6. SELECT FACTORY RESET AND PRESS POWER BUTTON TO RESET THE PHONE.

7. AFTER ITS DONE, RESTART YOUR PHONE AND SETUP ALL ACCOUNTS AND RESTORE EVERYTHING.

NOTE: Once reset, install Gobackup and restore apps, etc. But remember to copy the Gobackup folder to your computer before resetting and then copy back to the phone.

Hope this helps.

HIT THE THANKS BUTTON IF I HELPED.

I have exact the same issue, as you mentioned in the title. Got it on 4.3, and also on 4.4.2. Don't know of its llama issue or Android one. I think I will try to manually switch from 3g to Wi-Fi manually for a couple days and see, if it's work. If you solve the problem please write or pm me ;)

Switching WiFi on and off manually - works.

With Llama I switch WiFi off during nights, and back on at mornings. But every morning I see the WiFi is not connected, and appear in Orange color instead of Blue. Only switching OFF the device and back ON solves the problem. :(
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ring_C:
Thank you, but I won't do a factory reset as I'm afraid of losing my data.

But thanks anyway.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhishavphukan:
That's the reason you need to back up all apps, contacts, sms, etc. Data will be lost for apps that is you'll have to sign into all accounts. Other files like photos, music, etc can be copied to your PC via data cable. Rest is your call
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] commandonz:
I have something similar on my S4 i9505. I have my rooted phone go into airplane mode 9pm, and come out of airplane mode at 7am, to stop people bothering me at night and to reduce battery life (it now goes down by 2-3% overnight). If I turn airplane mode off manually say at 6.30am Llama turns it half on, leaving the toggle in the quick settings area half green and inoperative.

I have to reboot the phone to fix it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ring_C:
Thank you for sharing, commandonz.

Unfortunately, no one came up with a solution. I still find myself shutting my device off every morning, just relaunch it again a few seconds later. :(
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] commandonz:
Are you rooted? Have you given Llama administrator rights on the phone? See a thread here. You could automate restarts at least, which may help.

I'm on 4.2.2 on my S4. I know some things you need root for, because of security changes Google keeps making with Android. That's why I suggested trying to give the app root, even if just as an experiment.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ring_C:
Dear commandonz,

No, my phone is not rooted.

As to admin privileges for Llama - am not sure it ever asked for it. Or is it related to a rooted device only?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] colsecomb:
You need to allow as device administrator in Security tab and also enable Llama in Accessibility tab, both in Settings. Rooted or not.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4L3xN3t:
Hi,

I had 4.2.2 and was very proud of Llama, after updating to 4.4.3 and 4.4.4 have this annoying issue...

I tried writing to the developer of Llama but he's not responding anymore...

I actually don't want to wipe data!!!:crying:
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quixony:
I am having same trouble with Wifi controll.

I thought it might appear in relation with multiple wifi activation. So when the wifi is still turned on Llama tries again to switch on an the driver hangs up.

I ran into trouble when switching from AOSP 4.2 to Purity 4.4. I also tried to add a condition to check the wifi-state (independend of connected or not) but there is no option for that.

I really liked Llama very much as it managed all changes to the smartphone itself. No I always miss switching from wifi to 3G :( Hope it get fixed very soon.

p.s.: i will try a wipe later this day and will edit my post.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4L3xN3t:
I don't know if this could be related to something like you said...but I have quite complex events and I'm pretty sure (I'll double check) I don't trigger twice or more the same event of turning on and off...and this could be even confirmed by the fact that my wireless events works for 2 or 3 days and then the wifi toggle goes gray...anyway don't understand why the developer doesn't answer email anymore, yesterday he released an update, but no answer...

I'll try to change my event to understand, but the same events worked on older android version and still work on 4.4.3 on motoG:(

PS: you can understand if wifi is turned on by using llama variable, setting one to 1 when you enable and to 0 when you disable, then...before turning it on/of you'll check the value...anyway you can check if connected just using a classic llama event
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quixony:
Yes, it seems only the N4 is affected. And also only newer Android Versions. Did google change the wifi config, driver or controller? When the wifi icon is gray the option in the settings shows "Wlan wird aktiviert..." (Wifi is getting enabled) an the on/off switch is disabled. Is there an App to read linux-log-files? Maybe there is something logged what causes the failure.

I tried Llama with the same ruleset after a complete wipe but the wifi hung up again. So it really seems to correlate with newer android versions for nexus4.

I will write another email to the developer with an link to this thread. Hope we get help :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4L3xN3t:

Allow Llama in permissions to change Wi-Fi connectivity

I had to give permission to Llama (Settings > Permissions > Other Permissions > Llama > Change Wi-Fi connectivity) under MIUI8 for it to be able to toggle Wi-Fi on/off.

Otherwise it would be the same as you, WiFi wouldnt turn on/off as specified in the Llama events.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] zetsumeikuro:
I would refrain from the store if possible they might screw with your plan. They have to add the phone to your account and they'll probably try to change your data plan in store. I get my phone tomorrow in the mail :good: hopefully there aren't any issues.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] yojoe600:
I was wondering when yours was coming. The only problem is with the pixel problem it sometimes fixes itself and then comes back. Which is quite annoying.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] zetsumeikuro:
How long ago did you get your phone again? I just hope they don't try to screw with your data plan if you do go into the store. Maybe just request a replacement online via the BestBuy website?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] yojoe600:
they should not mess with the plan when exchanging. And I ordered on the 26th and got it on the 2nd.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] zetsumeikuro:
I'm sure they'll try to force you to activate the phone in store and who knows what the rep will do. That's why I aborted at the store since the punk was trying to change my plan.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] yojoe600:
Yea I know what you mean. I will make sure that doesn't happen.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] zetsumeikuro:
I think they will give you some BS about store policy about them having to activate phones in store.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] yojoe600:
Haha I can picture that. I can get the pixel line to fix itself when I use the dead pixel app, but it comes back after a while... This is so frustrating it was perfect untill today.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] zetsumeikuro:
I'm worried about mine too lol. When I had the Rezound I had 4 brand new out of box that had dead/stuck pixels.
