[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmagritte:
I had a very similar issue with my Nexus 5. It also froze suddenly then entered a bootloop. I was using a rooted stock ROM.

I was able to flash the stock image but when booting got lots of app errors then another bootloop. I tried to flash the stock image again but at this point just got write fault errors. I also tried to relock the bootloader but while this seems to work when you first lock it after a reboot it goes back to unlocked.

I'm waiting for my replacement to be delivered... Hopefully the unlocked bootloader won't be an issue when I send it back.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sir_earl:
Not sure how I missed this thread! I've just had a very similar experience, except I can't get past the black and white google logo, and trying to flash any of the partitions fails with a write error. See my thread here - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2629591

Not being able to re-lock the bootloader seems to be one of the tell tale signs the flash chip is stuffed, which is very unfortunate for warranty purposes. I'd be interested to hear how many people have had this same problem (seems like there might be at least a few of us on here). Also of interest would be whether you've run into issues regarding your warranty, or whether Google / LG are being reasonable about the issue.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wiretaps:
I'm telling y'all I had the exact same problem. Partitions were missing, couldn't mount or do anything without errors.

Then somehow, following the steps I listed on page one and doing a hard reset at just the right moment in the bootloop then WHAM the partitions were back. There did seem to be a couple files missing but I was able to do a dirty reinstall of the ROM I was using from the source in my download folder after the partitions reappeared and bam, I was back in business.

Now clearly what I was dealing with must have been a software issue and not a hardware problem, or at least not a permanent one but for anybody finds themselves with this issue its def worth a shot. A lot easier than going through unbrick process plus u don't gotta reconfigure everythingb or restore your files
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sir_earl:
In what way was your issue 'exactly the same'? Did your device also spontaneously reboot or turn off, or were you flashing new ROMs at the time? I don't think any of us have missing partitions, and personally, I wasn't even able to boot into recovery. I note that some are able to boot recovery, but aren't able to flash a new recovery, so this confirms that the flash memory has become read only. Also, it doesn't sound like you tried a 'fastboot oem lock', which would have failed if your problem was the same.

Windows installed the drivers for me... I'm not sure if I put on USB debugging. I was in download mode.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00143:
For debugging mode got to settings, about phone and then tap on build number about 5 times in a row. Then it will say developer mode enabled or something like that. Go back to settings and you should see developer options near the bottom of the list. Open that up and enable USB debugging. After all that run Kingo again from your normal boot mode. It will ask you to allow debugging mode and hit ok.
[HTC One S] elias.acab:
Today I was trying to back everything up because I needed to do a clean install. I used to have CMW, and it would work perfectly. Few days ago I switch to TWRP because of its friendly UI. Everytime I try to make a backup, I get this "Failed to make backup folder". When I go to the mount tab, or explorer, it shows my sd card and the folder named TWRP...is there any solution to this? Or should I switch back to cmw?

Thanks
[HTC One S] benyto:
If you're using the version of TWRP modified to work with SELinux (needed for KitKat 4.4.x ROMs) you may need to shorten the name of the target file before starting the backup.
[HTC One S] elias.acab:
Thanks a lot!! that fixed my problem. One more question: TWRP backups dont have the boot.img file in their folders. I read that it automatically flashes the boot.img when Im restoring the backup. Will it still flash it even though Im s-on?

Thanks
[HTC One S] benyto:
TWRP should backup your /boot partition to the boot.emmc.win file. As far as I know it should also be able to restore this, even if you are S-On. However, I am not positive about that
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rydsmith:
Hello all,

Today I picked up my Xperia Z1S, however I seem to not be able to find any setting to make a group MMS. I had an HTC One and Nexus 5 that did this with no problem, however the Xperia Z1s seems to have no option for this.

Any advice? I would have to go to the hangouts app (though it is nice) if I can stick with the stock one.

Thank You

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agent0815:
8sms and stock messaging results in receiving 2 text messages every single time

Unfortunately after downloading, setting it into standalone mode (which assumes there is no other SMS app on the phone anymore, hence one should de-install SMS app from sony. But that doesn't work unless you root the phone.... but no rooting yet possible)

So how did you avoid getting 2 text messages every single time with the same content by having 8sms AND the stock messaging app on the sony experia Z1S ?

I called SONY support:

"Group messaging" is not supported with the standard stock messaging app!

It's 2014.. you gotta be kidding. I just got the phone and was absolutely loving it until I started getting separate group messages. Unbelievable. I was holding back on using Hangouts for SMS..
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RockStar2005:
Guys...............this is the answer to your MMS problems. I have the Z3 and the same issue with the crappy stock text app. Textra is fantastic, looks COOLER than stock, and has all sorts of neat extras. (The add-on app that gives you cool iOS emojis that look better than the ones that come stock with Textra can be found here.)

My notes on Textra (please read):

1) ENABLE Stock Messenger app, making sure in "App info" screen (in Settings) that the "Notifications" box is unchecked. (Not sure if unchecking it matters, but I'd do it anyway to avoid double notification of incoming texts.) Also, under Stock Messenger's settings, make sure ALL boxes are unchecked as well. (You can try disabling stock text app if you want, but I don't, so not sure you really should either, but it might still be ok?)

2) In Textra (download this great text SMS/MMS messaging app if you haven't already from Google Play Store), make sure it's your default app, under Settings, "Use MMS for Group Chats" should be checked, MMS Settings: No Limit, and check the T-Mobile Wifi Calling Fix box too. (Post here or PM me if you'd like additional Textra settings suggestions.)

OPTIONAL: IF HAVING ISSUES RECEIVING TEXTS FROM iPHONE USERS WHO HAVE iMessage ENABLED ON THEIR IPHONE, THEN FOLLOW THIS: And lastly, there’s the “iMessage” issue ppl like myself are/were having (also those with LG G2 I’ve heard have this issue too) where when someone with an iPhone sends you an MMS pic text msg while their iMessage option is on, you don’t get the text…….. try this (a T-Mobile store rep told me this and it worked!): send YOURSELF an MMS photo text msg but include at least one other phone # as well too. If you’re using Textra or anything besides just the stock text app, then do this for EACH app. If that is the case, then do it via stock app first then Textra (easier this way). If you receive the pic successfully, then ask anyone you know with an iPhone to send you an MMS message (preferably having a 3rd phone # in on it too, but not sure if you need to) with iMessage ON. If you receive it, then it worked. If not, try this again.

Hope it helps!

P.S. If you're STILL having MMS issues, post here and I have something else I can have you try that I did which worked (it involves going into the Settings and changing a few things around, but it worked for my other MMS issue, which was NOT getting MMS messages from certain ppl!)

I keep getting this sync error:

Unexpected end of command stream
Fetching projects: 99% (415/419) fatal: Couldn't find remote ref refs/heads/android-4.4.2_r1

error: Cannot fetch android_frameworks_opt_mms

also, if i have a working cm official, what can i pull from it that would work with omni?
[Omni Q&A] Entropy512:
The error is incomplete... I have no idea WHICH repo it's looking for that branch on since it's failing on multiple repos.

My guess would be a malformed omni.dependencies or a bad manifest in .repo/local_manifests/

I can tell you that syncing TheMuppets will result in broken builds 90% of the time.
[Omni Q&A] pandasa123:
What should I do for device props instead of muppets? And malformed omni.dependencies? That can affect it?
[Omni Q&A] Pons:
https://github.com/DonkeyCoyote/

Yes, because what's in omni.dependencies gets synced as well. So if it tells repo to sync something that isn't there...
[Omni Q&A] pandasa123:
So omni is like building other ROMs? Just like building cm but change the cm parts to omni and adding twrp?

On the HTC one xl (Evita) and I really liked the multi window and thought we were overdue for an Omni build, so I wanted to try building it myself instead of waiting for one
[Omni Q&A] Pons:
In essence, yes. And I applaud you for being proactive and starting to compile for yourself.
[Omni Q&A] pandasa123:
everything is syncing beautifully now...just one quick question...

for omni, should i add to the sync the CyanogenMod/android_device_htc_evita git repo with the build? i mean, with the build, the only thing that's really specified is the kernel and thats it, so there has to be more variety than just that, isn't there?
[Omni Q&A] Pons:
Nope, not really. I'd try to sync only Omni's repos (and Google's), and leave other ROMs out of it. Assuming you're trying to build for the evita, and Omni doesn't have one for that, then you're best bet is to:

1. Fork (or create) a device tree

2. Make sure it's omnified

3. Add it to local_manifest

4. Once you have it up and running with minimal bugs, request to have Omni fork your device tree so it can be supported.
[Omni Q&A] pandasa123:
Omnified? This always confuses me. How do users have twrp if they have cwm installed? Will it overwrite?

And for the Evita tree, its basically me downloading cm tree locally and changing it to comply with omni? And then uploading it to my git so it can be added to local_manifest with that?
[Omni Q&A] Pons:
They don't. It's either one or the other.

If you install it, yes. You don't have to, but it's recommended.

More or less. If you haven't seen this yet:
