[LG Optimus G (International)] sarovarc@gmail.com:
Hey guys,

So I just got an Optimus G today ... and really wanted to get rid of LG's software and get Cyanogen on it. I have had Androids before and had a fair idea about what I was getting myself into.

But ... well ...

I rooted it and flashed a new recovery without unlocking the bootloader :( Yepp... silly!

This resulted in a Secure Booting Error. Cause: boot certification verify

I googled around a bit and figure that I can fix this by flashing the stock firmware using a KDZ Updater ... so I started down that path.

1. Downloaded the KDZ Updater from here .. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=44874388&postcount=36

2. And a firmware KDZ file from here http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=20 ... it was 1.08 GB.

3. Now when I tried to update - it basically gave me an extracting error

4. More googling led to me figuring out that this is because my Firmware file is over 1 Gig! So I did this method next, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2388440

5. This led to me downloading a Flashing tool etc. and an all important LG Mobile Support Tool B2CAppSetup.exe.

6. The flashing tool does not work unless the LG Mobile Support tool has been installed. And herein lies the problem, I cannot install this tool for everytime it gives me a small popup saying "TO CHECK FOR SOFTWARE UPGRADES YOU NEED TO CONNECT YOUR PC TO THE INTERNET, AND PRESS CONTINUE"

I am on Win 7 Pro x64 ... and have tried all compatibility modes etc ... The drivers are installed properly and working. Windows makes a ding noise when I plug my phone in :) The phone is able to go into download mode etc. So I think things aren't too bad ... but ... I can't figure out how to install LG Mobile Support tool/B2CAppSetup.exe

I think the reason may be that this file communicates with a server at http://cmsg.lgmobiles.com/ or something like that to get the latest firmware - but LG may have taken that site down - which is also a reason why I had to download the firmware KDZ file from a third party website because all links to the LG websites were down. This may just be a hunch ... but its all I have for now.

Can anyone help? Thanks much appreciated.

[UPDATE]

Managed to get it to work, all I had to do was disable Windows firewall and open port 9002 on my router.

But there is yet another problem. When I try to use the flashtool I get the following error:

When the phone is on,\npress the '[Restart]' button for upgrade.\nGo to LG Mobile home and read notices about upgrades.\nTo finish the upgrade, press the 'Finish' button. (_CheckPhoneType() Error)

as you didnt unlock your bootloader .. you can use lg software upgrade tool ..just press upgrade recovery.......it will download the rom and will flash itself....... dont need to worry bro... :) if your phone didnt boot just connect the phone to pc... and then power it on holding volume up and down simultaneously. you will enter download mode... then run software upgrade tool... your phone will be detected.. then go to upgrade recovery.... it worked for me.. hope works for you too..

i was wondering if there's something like this for android, or maybe someone can do it with xposed modules. That would be awesome!!! :D ... i guess... i think it would be amazing to visualize .GIF on our stock gallery, eventhough GIFFY makes .GIF animating in every app that can visualize images, well that's what i understood by reading the description of the tweak. Here's a link to the tweak for iphone, maybe this can be helpfull.

I have a SM-N900P, rooted stock ROM, CWM recovery, and the hotspot mod. All came from galaxynote3.com if that helps. I was wondering how I would go about updating my phone to 4.4.2. Obviously when I try to update it tells me it can't because of the root. I tried unrooting my phone by flashing the stock firmware but it failed every time, through every USB port. I tried upgrading my phone through Kies but I can't find my S/N.

[Google Chromecast] xdadevnube:
Rooted with latest Eureka firmware. The Chromecast is already configured and tested for the local WiFi.

However, the TV displays the following Chromecast screen with WAN disabled:

"reconnect me

'MyChromecast' connected to MyNetwork, but can't access the internet

Check that your internet connection is working

Otherwise, run the Chromecast app to choose a different network"

This is reported by BubbleUPnP when attempting to play a file:

"Cannot Play: GoogleApiClient is not connected yet."

After enabling the WAN, the Chromecast works as normal. The WAN can then be disabled again, and the Chromecast can still work. However, if the Chromecast is powered off, then it needs to connect to the internet again in order to work.

One would think it wouldn't have to call home every time you turn the device on. Seriously, just that idea that this thing has to connect to an external online server to work locally is ridiculous. Does anybody know how to work around this limitation?
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
Chromecast loads the player apps via web requests. Google's whitelist determines what application should be loaded for a particular request type.

It's primary design is to stream from Internet-based services (YouTube, Hulu Plus, Pandora, etc) so it needs Internet access.

Chromecast is not a wireless HDMI connection.
[Google Chromecast] bubbleguuum:
You are right but it does also some caching of the apps loaded (this doesn't survive power down). That's why OP could kill WAN connection and still have it (semi) working.

I have a moto X, xt1058 from claro, argentina, and i haven't reiceived any OTA so far yet, not even the camera fix one.

Is there anyone else with this problem?
[Moto X Q&A] :
Have you disabled the motorolaOTA app by chance? Or altered your phones system in any way?

Something must be altered on your phone to exclude you from every ota. I'm assuming there has been one for your model, cause I don't know for sure.

Sometimes restoring your phones factory image, the same as you currently are running, will jog the ota to come.

Has it always done this? You could try flashing a different kernel. There could be something stuck in the port? :silly:

Are you rooted?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsoft7:
yes i am, i'm rooted with stock kernel. friend of mine had the same problem and it fixed somehow by changing the recovery from TWRH to CWM.

it didnt help me though..

help?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JasSingh93:
Hm, it could possibly be a hardware fault. All I could suggest is to try flashing different ROMs, performing full wipes before flashing. And checking the MD5s. Maybe try rebooting with the headphones plugged in?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsoft7:
it cannot be hardware fault because i check if there are "forced output" through software calle "sound about", it basically pushes forecly the sound through aux even if it's not detecting if something plugged in. so i had output..

so what should i do?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JasSingh93:
A similar thing happened to my old Desire HD. Turned out there was dirt in the headphone jack that built up over time, the connection was still good so I could force the sound to be diverted to the headphones and it worked, but the phone wasn't detecting the headphones.

I had to carefully clean out the headphone jack using a pin.

Apart from this, I'm not sure what else to suggest
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsoft7:
well i though it might be a hardware issue, which i try to clean it, but it still didnt help, so it's only sofrware bug, which somehow denies access

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] pmdci:
I recently got an i-mate JasJar, and I found intriguing that:

a) It didn't came with any antivirus or skype installed

b) The smart dialling option doesn't work

By browsing the forums, I've found out aht these programs are in fact in the "ExtRom"

I checked my device information under settings, and t my surprise there is nothing under "extROM version" ???

I checked under at www.clubimate.com and the last firmware is, in fact, the same that I have. But the on on their website seem to have a "extROM".

Here is what I currently have:

ROM version: 1.30.76 WWE

ROM date: 02/20/06

Radio version: 1.09.00

Protocol version: 42.42.P8

ExtROM version: <this is blank>

Here is what is available for download at clubimate.com

Rom version: 1.30.76

Radio version: 1.09.00

ExtROM version: 1.30.164

Could someone suggest me what to do? Did someone here had the same problem that I have? It kinda bugs me not to have the smart dialing option and other things that were supopsed to come built-in.

Thanks for the help,

Pedro
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] pmdci:
Wow... 45 views and no answer... hummm... :?

I sorted out my problem by downloading the latest firmware from i-mate. For some reason, although I had all the latest WWE, Radio Firmware, etc. My ExtROM was empty (?!).

By upgrading the firmware I got all back, and my "smart dialing" now works, I have the Backgammon game, skype (although I uninstalled it in order to install the newer version), the Antivirus (although I uninstalled it because I find it useless), etc.

Hi,

I have a problem wit the CM11 nighly builds. Since the Kernel was updated (begin of Feb.) I must insert my PIN number of the simcard more than one times a day.

Often I must insert my pin 2-4 times at one day.

I have also clean the caches, but the problem is still there.

Also the usage of the idoak Kernel does not fix this Problem.

Have someone the same trouble. How can I fix this problem?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Omario-242:
I'm quite sure you didn't flash the ROM in a proper clean way.

I think it's ROM related and not kernel related. Try a full wipe with cache cleaning as well as formatting system under mounts and storage in cwm.

Then flash your ROM + Gapps and maybe your kernel.

Backup your current ROM just to be sure, you can restore /data after clean install with advanced restore to get your apps etc back.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] LGaljo:
I had the same issue. I resolved it with newer nightly and clean install.

Cheers
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Flying_Bear:
Ur loosing connection to network, probably due to ril problems. Check my sig for possible solution
[LG Optimus 4X HD] heliflieger9:
I have done yesterday the following.

1. Backup current ROM

1. Clean /system

2. Clean Dalvik

3. Clean cache

4. Wipe All

5. Install CM11 Nighly

6. Reboot (phone comes up)

7. restore /data from backup

But now before 30 Minutes I must insert my Pin number again.

It seems that the problem came when the phone wakeup from deep sleep.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] balloon27:
It might also be caused by a faulty or not properly inserted Sim card.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] heliflieger9:
Yes maybe, but I have this problem not before update.

I have also fixed the sim card with a tape in my phone.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] heliflieger9:
Problem still there

Hi,

the problem is still there.

I have now make a complete clean installation with cleaning of /system too.

But sometimes I must insert the PIN again.

Currently I have installed the nightly build 11-20140308-NIGHTLY-p880 with the default kernel.

I have enabled debugging and logged the reason. The log file is attached in this post.

Can anyone please look at the logfile.

For me it looks like that the phone disables or lost the radio.

I hope you can now help me.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] heliflieger9:
Works with another ROM

I have installed last saturday the ROM NAMELESS and the SIM problem is not there, all works fine.

So there must be a problem in the orginal CyanogenMod 11 version.

I think the developers from the CM11 should search the problem.

By the way, the NAMELESS ROM has much better battery usage.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Virtu@lizer:
Same on my phone (ril bug/sim-pin-bug).. with Original LG Firmware no problem at all.. with CM11 several times a day I have to enter the pin. :(
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Ottonet:
Although your problem seems to be solved, I wanted to be sure that the hint from Flying_Bear was understood.

What is important in [MENTION=3506654]Flying_Bear[/MENTION] signature is not the process of flashing, but his method of patching the RIL, which is described here http://direct.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=46751745 .

I tried it, and believe it makes a huge difference.

Did you try that?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] heliflieger9:
No, I did not try that, because I won't change this every time I install a new nightly. I think this is so, is it?

I see, that the RIL in other ROMs like Nameless ROM work, why did the CM developers not change it?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Ottonet:
Yes, that is understandable, When I had that problem I considered the opportunity of tweaking the RIL every time I updated a Rom, then since many, many nightlies and with iodak 9.95 kernel I did not see baseband wakeock appearing again, so I almost forgotten the matter.

Though I believe that it is not necessary to replicate the process described by Flying_Bear from the beginning to the end. All you have to do is getting a modified "telephony-common.jar" then, after each upgrade, copy that file into /system/framework, give it the correct permissions/owners and reboot.

Mind that I did not try this method, and don't know if it makes sense at all, maybe [MENTION=3506654]Flying_Bear[/MENTION] can give us a confirmation. If it worked, it would be no much hassle.

Inviato dal mio GT-P3110 utilizzando Tapatalk
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Flying_Bear:
Unfortunately, telephony-common.jar is usually incompatible from nightly to nightly (usually). With practice, the process takes only a few mins. Try upgrading weekly instead of nightly
[LG Optimus 4X HD] heliflieger9:
I have now tested the RIL changes from [MENTION=3506654]Flying_Bear[/MENTION] for two days.

It works and I must not insert my SIM-Card pin again.

I see in official CM thread that some people have currently also RIL problems. Did the CM developer know about this problems?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Flying_Bear:
not sure if they know there are specific problems, but the solution was presented to them back for cm10, and arcee rejected it due to many mentions of eternityproject inside the code itself (which normal users don't care about, as they care about stable RIL, and don't care who contributed)
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] livebyknight:
Its funny and probably not a coincidence that this just happened to me two days ago. Fortunately, you have all the right safeguards installed and this should be an easy process.

Now, in mine, I had the exact same issue. What you will need to do is use either the terminal emulator on the twrp recovery menu or hook up the phone to your computer and use adb. There are only three lines of code to enter, one deleting the update, one disabling it's start, and one to clear the misc partition. I am currently in my phone now so I don't have the code but I will get on my computer soon and update with the code and it's source. Just make sure it is exact. Hold on a minute.

If drivers are an issue, look up Koush's universal android drivers

Hey man im having the exact same problem, how do i exactly run the adb file? Im not sure if i still have it, what do i need to download, and when i did try it before it said my phone cannot be recognized, how did you fix your problem, can you walk me through please. Currently I am traveling and need my phone its useless right now.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NevetsDrassel:
I think that this will only work if you have TWRP already installed and have a TWRP backup file on the phone as the phone will revert to the last backup. Although this is an assumption on my part. It may revert to the phone factory default if you do not have a backup on the phone. As I indicated, I had been rooted, had Super User installed, had Flashify and TWRP installed on the phone and was locked in a TWRP bootloop that I could not get out of no matter what I did.

I am running Windows 7 Pro so these instructions may vary if you are running a different OS on your computer.

Get the Koush's universal drivers and install them on the computer. The regular LG drivers will not recognize the phone.

Get and download the "ADB + Fastboot + Drivers.zip" file found here and install in on the computer. Or found here.

Plug your phone into the computer and the computer should see your phone under the device manager properties as an "ADB Interface" "AndroidNet Sooner Single ADB Interface" (from the Koush universal drivers you installed. Originally, I think my phone was listed as a VZW device but it did not matter)

You have to run the ADB.EXE script from the computer in a CMD.EXE window that you are running with administrative privileges. Open a CMD.EXE window and navigate to the directory that has the ADB + Fastboot + Drivers folder. I had to navigate from /windows/system32 directory to C:/LG/ADB + Fastboot + Drivers/ directory (this is where I installed it on my computer) and type DIR and you will see the ADB.EXE command. Type "ADB SHELL (paste script here from other thread)", (without the quotes) then enter and it will run the script on the phone.

Restart the phone and it should work.

My phone reverted to an October backup, last one that I had on the phone.

If this does not work for you, I suggest that you start a new thread with your specific problem. You may have to flash the phone.

I do not know what the OTA update was but I read a thread that indicated that it was a rolling advert widget. I think that it was more than that though.

Let me know if you have success with this as it worked for me.

If you do not have access to a computer, I do not know what you have to do. You may be able to enter the script using the terminal emulator on the phone if you have access to it in TWRP.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fromc2m:

I cant open the adb+fastboot drivers, it says windows cannot open. I have a windows 8 computer.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NevetsDrassel:
You can get the Koush drivers from here.

You can get the script from http://www.photo-cool.com/?p=48043

Can't help you with Windows8. I know nothing about it. The ADB + Fastboot + Drivers is a .zip file. You have to unzip the file and put it on a directory of your choosing. I put my in C:/LG/ADB + Fastboot + Drivers/

Once you unzip the file (you can use 7Zip found here ) you will see the ADB.exe application along with 5 other .dll/applications/files in the folder.
