So, I kept at it, apparently i'm an idiot.

Instead of using dconf-editor to disable automount, I tried using gconf-editor (Doh!!!!!)

Eventually was able to use Ubuntu LiveCD to flash according to this thread :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2582142

Even after flashing, same problem with secure boot error etc.

I then tried to factory reset, and got TWRP!

I have a TWRP backup from a few days ago. Restoring now.

Damn it takes lots of time.

i have the same think. i dont have unlimited internet connection right now. so i cant repair my phone. can i ask you one question. if i have a backup of the stock rom can ı restore it after ı get in twrp. and did you use the exect same method? or did you send different files to the phone? thnask a lot.

ps: i had cm11-m8 isntalled.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eitama:
I used that method, and I was on stock and restored stock.

I think I used the files in the thread, but It was a long time ago so I don't remember.

Sorry for you that you have to deal with this - but atleast you know you can get out of it! Also, once you have twrp running, I think you can use some method to flash stock rom even without the backup.
[Motorola Droid 4] highlandsun:
I have a remanufactured Droid 4 from Asurion, the slash key on the keyboard isn't working. I didn't notice when I first got it, so I'm wondering if somehow it's because of a bad keyboard mapping in the last OTA upgrade. Anyone else notice keyboard issues with 98.72.188.XT894.Verizon.en.US?

And how come I see some of you have 189? This was the last update I got and checking for other updates says it's all sync'd up.
[Motorola Droid 4] highlandsun:
And Asurion now says they don't have any more Droid 4s in stock so they can't just send me a replacement. They're offering me a Samsung Stratosphere II instead. Anyone done a side-by-side comparison of these, any opinions?
[Motorola Droid 4] musicmama:
If you're talking about the BACK slash (\), then it's a system issue from the last update. If you're talking about the FRONT slash (/, physical key), then that's a problem with your individual phone.

Do whatever you can to STAY AWAY from the Stratosphere line!!! Its only virtue is the QWERTY keyboard, which is quickly outweighed by the overall cheapness of the build and the lack of further Samsung support. If you can live without the keyboard, you might have better replacement choices from Asurion. Apparently Moto has completely given up on this phone, which stinks because it was otherwise a pretty great phone.
[Motorola Droid 4] highlandsun:
"Slash" always means forward-slash, only DOS/Windows folks ever called backslash slash.

Thanks for the advice about the stratosphere. It now looks like I'm going to keep this particular Droid4 - if I hit the slash key repeatedly, it eventually starts to respond. That will do for now.

can anyone help me how to do it?!
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shut_down:
You can't just uninstall. Those files from the zip overwrited files from your system. To get back you can use nandroid backup, if you nade it before. Also you can see what files are inside that zip (in folder system/app or system/framework) and replace them from your previous one. If you are on some ROM, you could just reflash it without wipes.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CarlosCalderon:
Hey there.

Had a hard time getting my HTC One from S-off to stock o2 Germany (O2___102). After several ours of problems i finally had my phone got working again. It booted up, with the O2 nand backup and stock recovery and it gave me an OTA notification. Was happy like a little kit. Then I started it.

So now thats the problem. It started, but it got stuck in the middle. I cannot do anything, neither power it off nor restarting. Its a mess. What can i do. Is there a special button combo? Wait until battery is fully drained? But what comes after that....

PLS HELP! :D
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
Not sure I understand you correctly, but to reboot:

press and hold POWER + VOLDOWN (under a bright light, I'm not kidding!!), when it reboots (about 20 to 30 seconds), let go of POWER but keep holding VOLDOWN, that will get you to bootloader.

(if it doesnt work the first time, try again, sometimes takes me 2 to 3 times to get it working, and remember the bright light is important!!)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CarlosCalderon:
Bright light?! You mean under a lamp? Sounds really curious...

Anyway... An update: have been to work and I just left it updating. Battery went low and the phone turned off. Now that I'm back I charged it a bit and the phone turned on and resumed updating. After it had finished, the phone turned itself immediately off. Now it's just black and when I'm trying to turn it on only the capacitive buttons flashes. That's it... Maybe the battery is still too low.

I'm going to sleep now and hope tomorrow there will be hope for my one... But I think it's hard bricked...

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hardstuffmuc:

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CarlosCalderon:
No problem :D Thanks first for your help.

I have to send the phone in under warranty. At the moment the phone is ***UNLOCKED*** and S-off with stock Germany O2 Firmware (O2___102).

What do I want to do? Get rid of S-Off and the UNLOCKED status. So I tried to push revone via adb push revone /data/local/tmp/

Then I did:

adb shell

cd /data/local/tmp

chmod 755 revone <---This does not work without root, so revone basicly does not work. Now I'm trying to root the phone, without touching anything else, because I'm so happy that it does work right now. So, is there a way to grant root, without touching hboot, recovery, firmware and rom?!

Thank you!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
ah warranty, please check my guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2541082

This will return to 100% stock (including S-On if YOU choose), but has to be done in exactly in the order I mentioned in the guide, to avoid possible problems.

If you have questions, please feel free to ask
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CarlosCalderon:
That does not help me.... Because I dont have a fitting recovery for this o2___102 CID. Its everything finished... If I remove unlocked and tempered with the guru method, i need a custom recovery. But i see no way to flash it back to stock... Can you understand, where my problem is? my CID is pretty screwed :P
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
A) you just need a stock recovery "close" to your version, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2463387

during the 1st OTA update, the stock recovery may get stuck once (possibly twice), perfectly normal, it's cause the "reboot" command isn't able to do it correctly, so you manually reboot (as mentioned above) to let it reboot back to stock recovery and continue it's update.

(possibly twice)

or

B) do you have the 1st OTA file? if so you can extract stock recovery from it.

==> once the first OTA is applied successfully, everything will be 100% stock (including stock recovery for your CID)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CarlosCalderon:
I'm starting to hate this phone...why is this so freakin difficult. In your guide you are saying boot a recovery img: fastboot boot CWM.img

but this will just freeze the phone again :D What a surprise. Too bad i'm on the newest version from o2...

So what is close to stock recovery? My software number is 3.62.206.1...
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
1- Do you intend on going S-On? If yes, then just for info, this is what is likely going to happen:

you do the S-Off to S-On command, after a few reboots, your phone will say "tamper detected - rebooting" and TAMPERED is back in bootloader.

I cannot confirm this to be 100% of all cases, but it has happened more than a few times, trust me.

2- closest recovery for 3.62.206.1, I would say 3.62.401.1 (unless you can find the OTA file)

3- "fastboot boot <name of recovery>.img" will only work on hboot 1.44

My guide was written in a very specific order, with very specific commands, versions, etc. to avoid any potential problems.

There are always multiple ways of doing things, depending on you situation, and you're free to do it any which way you like.

Good luck :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CarlosCalderon:
I restarted from the scratch and used your guide. Everything's prefect, locked, removed tempered. But after the first ota it got stuck again. 2 times. The first time I managed it to reboot. After the second is black.

At the moment not even light can turn it on... You have a special trick again?

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
under a bright light?

Try holding POWER + VOLDOWN (phone under a bright light, not kidding!!) after about 5 seconds, buttons should start blinking, and after 20 to 30 seconds, phone should reboot.

you may need to try 2 or 3 times, to get it to work.

Hi,

firstly, i have to say, i didn't found a correct section, but this seems to be the most properly, although i could be a noob. If my posting wasn't correct, i hope you will forgive me & move my post in the right section.

In the next months I'd like to start porting CM11 or/and Android 4.4 to my Xperia J, respectively learn how android system works. In this case i thought it would be helpful, if i learn more about Java, especially because i'm learning C# since one year in school.

Really, I'm not interested in "trivial" things things like how to program a own launcher.

(I'd never done something like that, i'm just not interested in.)

My interestings are deeper, e.g. about the implemention of GPRS (want to remove that without damaging the system), the general system settings(want also to modify something in there), the new permission manager in android 4.4, the interaction with the sim card in CM & the original android & their differences(e.g. my Sim only works in android, not in CM), their code & their connection to each other.

Which parts of Android are written in Java, C & C++? (I know the Kernel is wirtten in C, but thats all)

Can you give me some sources about this?

Have you some suggestions what i could do?

Would something like that here:

http://www.amazon.com/Embedded-Android-Porting-Extending-Customizing/dp/1449308295

be helpful?

Or would be something like that better for my project:

http://www.amazon.com/The-Linux-Programming-Interface-Handbook/dp/1593272200/
