[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramo10:
Hi, So this morning my nexus 5 restarted on its own and it was stuck on the loading screen all day. After trying everything I decided to restore it to factory settings but now I have another problem. The play store won't open. I get, "Unfortunately, Google play store has stopped". I've tried clearing the cache and data for the app, checking if download manager is disabled and resetting the apps. It still doesn't work.

My other problem is my phone isn't connecting to my network. My sim card is in yet my phone says No service.

Everything was working perfectly fine until my phone restarted and got stuck in the loading screen..
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vin4yak:
Which rom are you on?? are you fully stock??
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Reflash the factory image in fastboot, that may solve your problem. Check the data in /settings/about the phone/status, do you see your Mac adres and IP adress? If not it may be a EFS issue.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramo10:
yup stock
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramo10:
I already reflashed the factory image but it didn't help. I do see my IP address and mac address. But all the other stuff like my network, phone number, and mobile network type say unknown. Would I just need to call my network provider to re-activate my sim card?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Yeah call them, have them check the connection and also ask for a new simcard as this may be also the problem.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramo10:
Alright I'll give them a call. My play store, camera, and gallery still don't work. Even after I factory reset it, as soon as I hit the welcome screen it gives me the messages that these apps have stopped. I'm starting to think my phone is permanently messed up.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wildfire271986:
Hi, I'm a bit of a noob and just recently switched to android. First off, I went ahead and rooted the tablet and tried to install a custom kernel to my tablet and I may have picked the wrong zip file, I tried to flash it in twrp recovery with the zip file and now the tablet comes on and I CAN still get into recovery but it just won't boot past the samsung logo. I have found another kernel that I wanted to try here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2455058 and was wondering if since I flashed the wrong kernel before and this one is supposed to be for my tablet, will it boot? If someone could give me a hand, I'd appreciate it. Thanks
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TonyR69:
Hi, I've read the manual and can't figure out how to put a pic with my contacts. My old Droid X and others was easy, menu>edit>photo. I've long pressed everything I could. When I get to "take photo or from gallery" it says "unable to save photo edits". I didn't even try to edit but touched on photo and got that message. Little circle spinning on pic, like trying to load. I hope it's not the phone, I've got less than 10 days to return it.

Any help for this phone will greatly be appreciated!

[HTC Droid DNA] Mr.Schneider:
I just installed Viper DNA v3 and I cannot get any apps to download. At first it worked, and let me re download all my apps that google had backed up, and then I used titanium to restore all the app data, but not the google play store does not work, and even manually getting an sdk and trying to install from that is just stuck on "Installing........"

I am not sure what I did wrong. I am almost certain I installed everything right.

Try a factory reset and reflash.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DoughMucker:
Hi,

I'm installed TWRP 2.7.0.0 via GooManager and that went smoothly. But when I went to do a nandroid backup, the modem partition isnt there. The other partitions (boot, system, cache, data, efs) are there. In "Mount" the modem partition wasn't mounted so I tried to mount it, but that didn't add it to the available partitions to backup either. Is it normal for the modem partition to be missing? How can I back it up?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
The modem is never backed up. All you need to back up are system, data, and boot

Edit, it would be good to backup only the efs partition once and store a copy off your phone in case that ever gets messed up

Sent from my Nexus 5
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DoughMucker:
Thanks. :good: It's a bit confusing as I see some posts talking about backing up modem with TWRP....and other posts talking about grabbing a modem file from a developers thread and using that. I guess I'll go with the latter based on your large number of posts and >2000 Thanks received. :fingers-crossed:

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikereidis:
Are there not any CWM/TWRP Flashable ZIPs for stock or GPE ?

I've just spent frustrating hours trying to get stock or GPE running, on my GSM device that's been happily running CM11 for a while. This in part because I'm running Linux and there's no way to get mfastboot running I guess. Tried under Linux Wine but no luck.

Only after grabbing a windows PC and messing around a bunch have I been able to get CWM re-loaded after a partial install of GPE; The GPE recovery flashed OK but /system failed.

On other popular phones, there have always been flashable ZIPs of stock derived, and GPE derived ROMs. So I could keep custom recovery and easily switch ROMs, in order to test my apps.

If there are no such solutions for MotoG, I'll just have to stick with AOSP ROMs I guess. Is there some technical reason, or just not enough dev interest in ZIP flashable versions of stock and GPE ?

Thanks for any thoughts ! :)
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] small-mallet:
Yeah, I always get nervous with fastboot flashing cause anything can go wrong. Would really love some flashable stock roms. Or atleast a tutorial on how to make one. I have the dual sim version and I am running a GB firmware with cm11 (single working sim). I am guessing that would make things even harder to make a flashable rom to revert to the dualsim firmware (or impossible). Will a simple twrp backup suffice for restoring stock?

Edit: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2605824

This might be what you are looking for. Not for dualsim though.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] walrusmonarch:
This would be a nice thing to have. Flashing through fastboot is straightforward, but a pain...
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikereidis:
It's not straightforward when it's a proprietary Mfastboot from Motorola.

And Mfastboot is only for Windows and we can't run it from Linux, even with Wine.

Since a lot of Android devs, such as myself, run Linux exclusively, this is a pain. At least the popularity of Samsung has resulted in MobileOdin, to flash firmware on phone, as well as Heimdall to flash from Linux PC.

I gave up on Motorola some time ago. I hoped the new "Google Moto" would be different. With the Moto G and Moto X it looked like the "Google Moto" was finally here. Now the sale to Lenovo... I'm not so happy with "Lenovo Moto".

And since I'm ranting, LOL, what's with the phone date being reset to 1970 (!!!!) ?? I guess they saved a penny or two in hardware with this trick...
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikereidis:
I'm not sure...

Thanks. In theory it should work.

In practice it wrote over my custom recovery, then it tried, and failed, to write the system partition. I have no idea why.

This left my MotoG in a state where I had to mess with a Windows PC again, and waste another 30 minutes of my life.

So, AOSP only for me I guess...

(Must. Resist. Temptation to flash non-AOSP. Forever. Or be doomed to waste more time.)

(I have 20 app test phones I've flashed with MANY ROMs each over 3 years. Every stinkin' phone is different, pretty much, and requires different tricks and poses different problems. Each seems to require a minimum of 20 hours of reading and messing about to unlock, root, add recovery, backup, save EFS, avoid corruption bugs, etc. Buying a new test phone is just the START of the "investment" in it. What a pain, LOL.)
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scott_doyland:
Some stock ROM downloads contain motorola fastboot for Linux.

1970 is Unix epoch. Google for it if you want to know more. I'd thought a dev working on Linux would know that already ;)
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikereidis:
Really ?? Can you or anyone clue me in to which downloads have a Linux version ? Thanks !

Oh, I've known that since the 80's, along with obscure experience with real ASR33 110 baud TTYs with punch and reader in my basement. Then there were "television TTYs" with 24 lines and 40 columns or less, LOL.

I'm just griping that the clock isn't automatically set. AFAIK some phones went cheap and can't set it automatically, while others do. (?)

Anyway, even decades old PCs have BIOSes that start in the 80's or 90's or 00's, instead of the 70's. Just seems ridiculous to have to scroll through 3+ decades when setting time.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scott_doyland:
I think it's the 4.3 version (UK retail I used) from sbf-droid that has the moto fastboot. Its just called 'fastboot' though. Worked fine for me flashing stock 4.3 and 4.4.2.

4.4.2 version from.sbf-droid doesn't have it included.

Also one of the official moto x stock downloads from Motorola site has a Linux version.

If you can't find it let me know and I will attach to this thread when I get home.

1970 - fair enough I see your point. I work with IBM pSeries AIX servers and if you remove power AND the internal clock battery dies they revert to 1970 on boot up as well - and they cost tens of thousands of pounds/dollars.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chrono86:
I'll try not to rant here.

I love my HTC One. And T-Mobile. But no GSM carrier works in my condo. So I'm required to have wifi calling. And I really, really hate any manufacturer skins. I want to be able to use stock Android, and despise having to be stuck using this Sense nonsense.

Is anyone actively working on getting T-Mobile's wifi calling to work with stock Android ROMs? Or has it been determined impossible at this point?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fuzi0719:
It isn't impossible, T-Mobile released the Wi-Fi calling framework so third-party developers could incorporate it. But, very few have bothered to do so.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav kapur:
Why don't you sideload the Google Now Launcher, replace the HTC Stock apps with the Google equivalents on a Sense-based ROM, if WiFi calling is so important to you ??
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chrono86:
I've installed the Google Now Launcher which is a bit of an improvement. However it doesn't give me the nice transparent statusbar with a shadow that all the screenshots show. It instead gives a semi-transparent statusbar with a border. I've installed various xposed mods to make it fully transparent but that results in some glitchy behavior (opening certain apps makes the statusbar turn white)

I know that fora is technically the correct plural form of the word forum, but forums is by far the most used and understood plural form. Not to mention that forums is listed in most dictionaries.

The correct way to to use forum in the plural sense is fora. However, language is dynamic and over time forums as come to be accepted by those who do not know better.

Broken/ghetto English is forums

Forums is not broken or ghetto English as Mark claims. It is the proper plural noun of forum in English. Fora would be the correct plural noun in Latin. Both are 100% correct and you would be able to use either in a publication and you wouldn't be criticized.

A lot of words in English are borrowed from other languages and its parent language is disregarded. For example the plural of medium is media but the meaning of the word media has evolved.
