[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pollutedmuse:
my rooted G2 with stock 4.2 suddenly quit accepting a charge and appears to be caught in a boot loop. when I have it in via usb to my laptop it (laptop) responds by recognizing 12 different devices while saying they they all need to be reformatted. when I unplug the device they go away on the laptop. when I hold power (device) the LG logo will appear then quickly disappear leaving only the very dim backlight as proof that it isn't completely dead. any ideas? thank you

one more thing, the fiddling I have been doing is xposed modules. the last one I think I activated was xblast tools (very cool sh*t by the way).
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] se1988:
You need to flash the xposed disable zip that's automatically put on the root of the storage directory. The latest module or change you added is most likely the cause. After flashing the zip, you'll need to reinstall xposed. Remember to disable the module that caused the bootloop.

Do one thing flash the .tot file for your phone if you can get to download mod, it should bring it back to factory defaults but it will format your sdcard as well so all personal data will be gone.

If you can't enter recovery or download mode, you have a softbrick. Search on how to solve softbrick issues. Im sorry I cant help you any further if it is a softbrick, as I am completely new to LG :)

When you plug it into your computer do you see a yellowed out device in Windows device manager?

If so try this - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=48361867&postcount=68

or alternately, install the pdanet drivers.

If you can then get adb access to your device there are several paths you could take.

I used this thread (I had recovery but not twrp), as it's the least destructive - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2451696

If you can't get adb access with either single sooner or pdanet drivers, you may have to resort to this..

If you can successfully install this recovery(any CWM recovery), you can boot back in..

Download the original stock firmware for GT-I9082 and flash it via Odin. (I recommend dont go for the latest build of JB 4.2.2)

I have tried from webOS and from CWM, have also tried two usb cables, both my macbook pro and my windows 7 laptop. the original usb cable doesn't seem to be working anymore so i haven't got to try with that.

I didn't have any problems using recovery to transfer using nova com or preware. just the mass storage part that seem to be out of order.

any help is appreciated.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moijk:
I'm starting to suspect something seriously wrong with the tablet.

i had ran a acmeuninstaller, but still booted into android. so i downloaded a rom and a file manager, and then a problem i've been having started to occur - processes dying etc. usually fixed by a reboot. which was one of the reasons i wanted to try something else.

so i took a reboot, and well - everything i had downloaded was gone. so i did the opposite thing, started deleting everything i've downloaded.

next reboot - everything was back in place.

More of this and i'll just use webOS which seem to work well. beside the usb connection that don't work.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghosthunter83:
I have never used any uninstaller to flash a new ROM. All I do is do a factory reset, clear cache, clear Dalvik cache then install new Rom and Gapps. I did this when I went from 10.1 to 10.2 to finally 11.0. Also, I have found that having the most current recovery installed will help also. For example...CWM version 6.0.4.7 is needed to install CM 11.0 because datamedia support is required to properly support emulated sdcard storage in 4.4. I also use CacheMate to regularly clear my caches.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackdragon12:
So I am waiting for my nexus 5 to arrive (hopefully by end of this week or early next week) and I am pretty sure I want to root it. Coming from a rooted s3, there are just way too many advantages of Rooting that I cannot give up. So I have a few questions:

1) how easy it is to relock the bootloader for warranty purposes? Has anyone had to send back their rooted phone to Google and been successful?

2) has anyone here unrooted their phone successfully and sent it back to Google for warranty?

3) if I root but do not flash a custom rom, will I still be able to do Ota updates?

4) will simply uprooting the device (with stock rom) cause any unstability issues?

Thanks!
