Excellent! thankyou, SO just to clarify one more time, i WONT lose any photos?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Probably not, but, you either want a working phone or you don't. That should be the least of your concerns at the moment.

After being able to unlock and flash Hairybean recently, I've definitely found a new love for my tablet. One thing that was never quite solved for me though was the lag after an application install, uninstall, or update action. To elaborate, after I'd do any of these actions, the tablet would take about 15-20 seconds to "catch up" and perform well again. data2sd may be a fix, but seeing as how complicated it is to get it working, this is one of my last resorts. Does anyone else have this issue and have a possible solution?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jynlude:
bump..just curious if this is still an issue that's fixable with any of the ROMs out there?

I am needing an Odin image (rooted or not) to get my phone up and running again. I can only get to the downloading screen , not the TWRP Screen. Can someone point me to an image for ODIN. I see tons of firmware for flashing in TWRP but I need an ODIN one,

Which recovery are you using ClockworkMod or TWRP?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DopePedaler:
Hey everyone,

I had a quick question, still new to this kind of thing. I am rooted , stock rom 4.2.2 sw. Last night, after my battery died, I plugged the phone in to charge it. Upon a full charge, I powered on the phone, using it as normal. I held down the home key, to visit my recently used apps, and realized that where my usual stock task manager is, to the right of clear all, was missing. I'm unsure why, no real changes since last night before it died.

Two questions; has anyone had a similar issue like this before, if so, is there a fix for it, or a way to re enable it?

Also, is there a list of the stock apps on this phone, as in what's already installed straight out of the box? I uninstalled a few system apps before doing a backup in twrp, and want to reinstall them, and then do the backup.

Thanks for any and all help, and if this isn't in the correct area, I apologize in advance.

So I have a LG p506 and I recently installed cyanogen-mod 10.1 on it. I had to use the November release as the newest one wouldn't load past the cyanogen logo(i let it run for a couple hours). Everything seemed to work great after that. So I put the phone in my backpack for a later date.

When i finally pull it back out the battery was completely dead, and plugging the phone into usb would not charge it. I used an external device to charge it.

Basically the only thing the phone can do now is load the lg logo, go into emergency mode, and fastboot. I can erase and flash images, I have tried system boot and recovery multiple times with different files.

However I get the same two things every time i try something:

1. when I plug the phone into usb, the phone will do its thing then give a STALL GET_DESCRIPTOR error

2. fastboot devices shows something but I get a "?" where the serial number should be.

I am not proficient enough with fastboot to try other commands. Any one have some advice?

Also, I've tried every usb port I have, theres only one that works with the phone. One of the usb ports shows up normally on the phone but fastboot won't show any devices. I am running windows 7 ultimate x64.

The one thing i haven't tried is reinstalling windows 8 on one of my hdd's and seeing if it isn't a win7 issue. Ive used it with win 8 before and it didn't give the error message.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shinobisoft:
fastboot doesn't show a serial number for that device. At least never has for me. If 'fastboot devices' lists something like

List of devices attached

???????? fastboot

then you're good to go.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baked cake:
damn that was my only thing to go on lol. nothing will get this phone to boot into recovery. im about to get a sd card reader for my pc to test and see if its bad.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shinobisoft:
You can use fastboot to flash another recovery. Rashed should have a link in the OP for the 4.1.2 ROM you said you were using. You can continue to use the command-line if you like, but I did write a Windows app for flashing recoveries. Links in my signature.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baked cake:
ill give it a try, but i have tried just about every recovery file i can get my hands on and no luck, also looks like winds 8 doesn't want to acknowledge my phones existence. I downloaded and installed the driver from LG but still no luck, windows 8 is giving me a failed descriptor error as well.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baked cake:
ok so i have been stumbling around for a bit and noticed something possible wrong.

Windows 7 device manager shows my device, installed correctly, but listed as USB Modem Phone ADB Port.

Shouldn't this be a fastboot port? Since ADB is only available via the android operating system, and i can't get into my operating system, all i have is fastboot.

I have ran thru quite a few fast boot recovery pages, and I don't know what im missing here.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shinobisoft:
I'd say that was/is the correct port name. I don't have that device anymore so I cannot say for sure.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baked cake:
ok, so this is a follow up on some things i have tried recently.

Since my last post i have:

1. put the sdcard into my tablet, and formatted it/ ran an error scan on it via windows.

2. i then flashed a recovery file via my phones fastboot, i pulled that card put it back in tablet to see what files it installed.

3. according to windows, flash recovery installed a .LOST folder with nothing in it, which is the same thing my tablet has on its internal memory, so i don't think there's anything wrong there.

4. phone still cant boot past LG logo(or recovery), or charge the battery when plugged in.

5. I still get a stall get_descriptor error when connected via usb, and commands such as fastboot reboot don't work, tho the phone will say its rebooting (it says its rebooting then just sits there and does nothing, command prompt will say action completed).

6. one thing i have tried as well, is telling windows not to automatically install drivers, then uninstalling my phone from device manager.

Whats interesting about this was that windows was installing its own ADB modem driver from it's own library every time i plugged in the phone. After disabling auto drivers, and reinstalling my LG drivers, the phone simply remains an unknown device.

Some things I have tried include pointing windows to the driver folder, both the downloaded folder and the folder windows installed it to. Neither worked.

The next thing I tried is the have disc option on both. Although there are setup information files in the install folder (about 50 of em), pointing the phone to each file one at a time did not work.

What did work, interesting enough was pointing the phone to a set of Naked Drivers I downloaded, although none of those drivers are specifically for my phone, and they only gave me the same problem I had when i had windows auto installing its own driver.

[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] jcase:
My apologies for taking so long, life is hectic. This is a "root path" for the 4.4 update, and in this case you will retain your stock recovery so features like remote wipe will continue to work. It requires you downgrading to 4.2.2 or already be on 4.2.2 before updating to 4.4. Unlike hte MotoX, you can not downgrade. This Must be preformed while on 4.2.2 before updating to 4.4

First you must use MotoWPNoMo, if you haven't then you will need to. Use RockMyMoto to gain root, then use MotoWPNoMo, and then restore to the 4.2.2 Camera update.

Step1)

Unzip SlapMyMoto-1,0.zip and push the jar file to your internal storage

adb push SlapMyMoto.jar /sdcard/SlapMyMoto.jar

Step2)

Use http://www.cydiaimpactor.com/ to open up a telnet session as system user on port 2222. We covered how to use Impactor and telnet in the RockMyMoto root, I won't be covering it again since this post is going to be long enough already, see here -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2509590 or http://rootzwiki.com/topic/107098-root-rockmymoto-yes-even-the-first-ota/

Connecting over telnet, and run Stage1 with this command:

dalvikvm -cp /sdcard/SlapMyMoto.jar SlapMyMoto

When the device tells you to reboot, do this manually with "adb reboot" or your power button. It will not auto reboot on this step

Step3)

Once the device has rebooted, run Impactor again and connect over telnet just like in the previous step, then run the same command

dalvikvm -cp /sdcard/SlapMyMoto.jar SlapMyMoto

Once the device has rebooted, please take the 4.4 OTA.

Step4)

Now that we are on 4.4, we can finish the process with adb shell:

adb shell
cp /sdcard/install.sh /data/local/tmp/install.sh
chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/install.sh
echo "/data/local/tmp/install.sh" > /sys/kernel/uevent_helper

Then either wait, or toggle your bluetooth. Once the device reboots, you will have root.
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] Volodimirrr:
So, if I have a root that I've gained with RockMyMoto I just need to take an OTA and start from the step 4 ?)
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] fuzzychinsagrero:
I was going to say what if we used voodoo un root then take the update when it comes hopefully restore with it? I know voodoo doesn't support 4.3+ but what if we achieved root on 4.2.2?
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] empoweredh22:
No....make sure you have write protection off with the MotoWPNoMo procedure jcase linked, then start at step 1. It's my understanding that if you start from step 4 nothing will work because 4.4 can't currently be rooted, so you go through all these other steps to maintain a root via 4.2.2. Besides that, with the 4.2.2 root, there's no recovery so if you tried to take it right away you'd just boot loop your phone. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] TheWhiteChallenger:
Has this been verified? I saw people in another thread getting a "security version downgraded" error but could not figure out exactly what they did
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] fuzzychinsagrero:
Another question I got root through rockmynoto. When I got my maxx I took the update to 12.15.15 do I still have to do all the steps?
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] digitaloutsider:
Well, upon flashing back to 4.2.2, my phone says I don't need the update. It can't be polled, so I have no idea when it'll prompt me to do it again.

With my luck I'll have to wait until after the push window closes and it becomes a freeforall.

i really dont feel like going back to 4.2.2 to root :( lol.. battery life is great.. think ill stick with 4.4 /4.1/.2 until there's an exploit for it.

[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] TheWhiteChallenger:
ok so im having major issues, idk if its the root method or the fact that i push the ota via adb, so ima keep that conversation here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=48656238&posted=1#post48656238 for now in an effort not to clutter this thread needlessly

but i would really appreciate any help, especially if jcase would like to take a peek and see if he know wtf i did wrong.

on the lighter side can someone whos done this tell me if we were suposed to get the new dialer or did our kitkat get shorted out of that?
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] bluh5d:
Just verifying for everyone that I run a Droid Maxx and I am part of the soak test and This did work I am on 4.4 with Root and Hotspot active used another mod on here for that and Also google wallet working with touch 2 pay !!!

Thanks Jcase As you know I think you are the best !!!!

[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] dtreth:
I cannot downgrade. I get an error that the bootloader noticed it was a downgrade....

Oh well, I guess I'll wait for something else.
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] jcase:
What was the exact erro, what were you downgrading to, and what specific device?

I did not confirm downgrade was possible, so it may only apply to those that already were on 4.2.2
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] dtreth:
I took the OTA 4.4, tried to downgrade to the link I provided earlier in the thread, I have a Droid MAXX. I don't remember exactly what it said but it was the same error I got when I tried to FXZ my Razr MAXX HD to 4.1.2 unlockable after I took 4.1.2 locked forever. I don't really want to do it again but I will for exact text.

EDIT:

I did it again, it said

"downgraded security version

update gpt_main version failed

preflash validation failed for GPT"

I DID do MotoWpNoMo and it survived the OTA even without root or anything, so I'd be willing to test any methods you cook up to remedy this, if you do indeed attempt anything (and I'd also probably try to hug you through the computer somehow)
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] j.bruha:
Correct me if if I'm wrong, but this looks like I need to be on STOCK 4.2.2, correct?

I'm currently rooted with WP off on 4.2.2 (XT1080M, MAXX). When I run SlapMyMoto, it says rooted devices are not supported. If I'm understanding these steps correctly, I need only go back to stock 4.2.2 and then complete all of these steps. Can anyone that has completed these steps confirm this?
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] tehcodeman:
I suggest doing a FXZ (w/ Keep Data) with House of Moto to get back to 4.2.2 stock without root. Be sure to flash the 12.15.15 firmware. You will not lose "WP off". Then proceed with the SlapMyMoto steps.

UPDATE: Success! Followed jcase's steps exactly and had no issues. One exception is that I installed the update from internal storage instead of an OTA.

A few other things I've noticed:

1. Recovery is now true recovery and is no longer the normal boot with "write protection off" (like it was with RockMyMoto). Now you see the Android with the red exclamation point like stock recovery.

2. MotoWpNoMo survives the 4.4 OTA!!!

3. Google hotword detection ("OK Google") in the GEL and GoogleNow isn't working. Moto X users on KitKat are seeing the same thing, so hopefully a fix is coming soon. Of course, Moto's Touchless Controls ("OK Google Now") still works like a charm.
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] Metfanant:
Question...

Currently I'm on 4.2.2 no root, no WP off...fresh from the box...

I am not yet able to pull the update from the servers...should I wait till I get notification that there is an update to take? Or can I preemptively do steps 1-3 and then take the OTA whenever it comes and finish the process?
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] danman7:
That's what I thought. I was reading something into it that wasn't there. Hoping jcase or someone else comes up with a way to root 4.4. Sorry for the confusion.
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] rlmesq:
No, you have to do everything EXCEPT the final steps of SlapMyMoto BEFORE updating to 4.4.

Unless you have a developer edition, there's no way to downgrade to 4.2.2, or to root your phone, at this time.
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] pj1980:
I wouldn't count on a root fix for 4.4 until the official 4.4 rolls out, not a soak test, because motorola might just fix the exploit on the final version of 4.4, at least that's my opinion on why we have been and will be waiting a while.
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] fuzzychinsagrero:
Okay question last time I attempted this I messed up on the update.zip part have that figured out however according to root checker I don't have root should I root again or is my phone rooted I did have wp at 0.
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] bigv5150:
Need more info are you still on 4.2.2 or 4.4 ? What part of the process have you completed I take it you ran motowpnomo but did you run the first part of SMM. Saying Im not rooted should I root again does not help anyone diagnose a problem. If you are on 4.4 now and not rooted your hosed if not you SHOULD be able to root.

---------- Post added at 04:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:27 PM ----------

If you ran root checker and it says your not rooted then your not rooted.
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] fuzzychinsagrero:
I'm still on 4.2.2 I completed up to flashing the update because it said update has failed or aborted. How is one supposed to keep root when rsd restores to a stock? Because as soon as I did that it wiped my phone and that's when I lost root.

---------- Post added at 11:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:34 AM ----------

Another question for you bud the ota is the same system version I'm currently on how does it know to update to 4.4?
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] bigv5150:
I'm going to make this really simple this is what you need to do to upgrade and keep root. Root the phone on 4.2.2 Run motowpnomo get permanant write protection off. Fxz to stock put the update zip on sdcard run slap my moto then take update then finish slap my moto your rooted. If the update fails male sure it is not zipped in a file that will make it fail.
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] fuzzychinsagrero:
Yeah that just confused me even more. I need like a step by step. Because on that I understand root, get wp off, fxz to stock, run the smm (cydia n telnet), do the update, now you say run smm again? Or do the adb shell command? Now as far as the update I download the file, then copy to sdcard, rename? Done that and it failed. Sorry
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] fuzzychinsagrero:
Well I am on 4.4 but not rooted. Couldn't get permission to run the very last slap on adb shell. Looks like I'll have to wait. Thanks for all who helped.
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] bigv5150:
Yes I meant run the shell command after you take the update it may not be to late if you ran SMM the first time it installs what you need to root after you take the update. So you could try and run the shell commands again and see if it takes then reboot. Worse case scenario you waste a few minutes trying. This exploit is not time sensitive or reboot sensitive all it does is install what you need to root on 4.4 when your still on 4.2.2. I had an issue and rebooted several times and it still rooted my phone. Make sure you run each shell command separate.
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] fuzzychinsagrero:
Yeah I ran it several times I'm like well maybe it's enter here or there lol. Sometimes the spacing looks different then it really is. I'll try it again.

update: tried the adb shell commands again and still no luck. fails at the echo command.
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] Lebowski13:
If you were were able to run MOTOWPNoMo on 4.2 and then flash back to stock...ran SMM...took the update to 4.4....you are good, the exploit was already done, you just have to finish the ADB part of SMM in 4.4. Did you verify via ADB that WP was off after you ran MOTOWPNoMo?

Are you able to establish an ADB session at all? I had a problem getting ADB back on 4.4...I had to upgrade ADB first and then it worked. You will also get a new prompt on your phone each time you start an ADB session with the new version, you will have to accept.
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] fuzzychinsagrero:
Yeah I can establish an adb command I get through the first two lines and then the echo line says pejoration denied or can't create directory.
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] Lebowski13:
Can you screen shot?

Also, can you use a file explorer on your phone and verify that the following directory exists? /data/local/tmp/install.sh
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] fuzzychinsagrero:
that's what it says. I've tried several ways of running that last command and nothing. unless you could tell me how you ran yours with the spaces to the t and stuff. I even tried rebooting and toggling Bluetooth and nothing.
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] Lebowski13:
I believe those first 2 ADB commands are failing. Can you verify that you have the following directory on your phone? /data/local/tmp/install.sh
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] fuzzychinsagrero:
Yeah don't believe I have it.
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] Lebowski13:
Ok, can you see if you have this? /sdcard/SlapMyMoto.jar
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] fuzzychinsagrero:
Yes I do have that
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] Lebowski13:
Ok, just making sure...so check for this now. /sdcard/install.sh
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] fuzzychinsagrero:
No don't have that one.
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] Lebowski13:
Crap, in my mostly non professional opinion...I think SMM failed. When you ran dalvikvm -cp /sdcard/SlapMyMoto.jar SlapMyMoto in your telnet session on 4.2, you were installing the SMM script and it should have unpacked install.sh and placed it in that directory. Now you cannot run those ADB commands because the directory or file you're asking it to copy from does not exist.

Sorry bud, that's about the end of my ability to troubleshoot it. Maybe the Dev [MENTION=2376614]jcase[/MENTION] or someone else on here can help you further. Good Luck
[Droid Ultra Original Android Development] fuzzychinsagrero:
Hey thanks for the attempt though.
