[Verizon LG G2] not balanced:
I tot'ed back to 11A, rooted with IORoot, took the 12B OTA, the 24A OTA, and finally the 26A OTA.

I then used MicroMods KitKat Freedom24A to install TWRP and then loaded DR. Gravy's thermally protected TWRP 2.8.0.1
[Verizon LG G2] simon_lefisch:
Why go all the way back to 11A? You could've kdz'd back to 24A, root with ioroot and take the 26A OTA. Would've saved yourself a lot of time.
[Verizon LG G2] jesssiii:
You weren't asking me, but personally the 11A tot is set up on my computer and takes 3 minutes tops. KDZ's I never tried and the instructions make it seem like a real pain. So, I'd probably go that tot way myself.
[Verizon LG G2] not balanced:
Tried to use the KDZ method but had no luck with it. It didn't take that long the way I did it and my phone seems happier now that I completely flushed it out and started new. Sorry for going off topic here.
[Verizon LG G2] simon_lefisch:
Actually, using the new flash tool (2014) is just as fast. Did it twice a few weeks ago. No probs. To each his (or her) own ?
[Verizon LG G2] TabletConnect:
I'm on 24A rooted with TRWP. My phone automatically downloaded the OTA but I postponed installing until tonight 11:59pm. I know if I don't make some changes it will bootloop. I believe I can take ota if I have stock recovery. How do I deleted TRWP? Also I froze some apps and used Xposed to modify some things. Will this cause an issue taking the OTA? Any help is greatly appreciated.
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
I recommend doing the 24A KDZ using the new Flash Tool 2014. First, wipe data, cache, dalvik, cache, and system using twrp. After that, power off your phone and go into download mode. Choose the "Normal Flash" in the tool so you don't erase your "sdcard" data. After the KDZ file is done flashing, you should boot up into the OS and continue from there; I think you may have to download the update again though.
[Verizon LG G2] mrdunn:
How do you go to downloader mode if twrp is installed? Is it the same as bootloader?
[Verizon LG G2] jesssiii:
Plug it into computer while holding volume up.
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
If your .laf partition is wiped, you will have to restore download mode (flash the zip in the OP of this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=51855848&postcount=1), then do what [MENTION=3609390]jesssi[/MENTION] suggested.
[Verizon LG G2] TabletConnect:
If I want to stay on 24A, is there anything I can do to prevent the OTA from installing? My phone already downloaded it but will not install until tonight.
[Verizon LG G2] jesssiii:
Yep, if you're rooted. Delete or freeze that fota thingy.
[Verizon LG G2] TabletConnect:
It is frozen but my phone downloaded it anyway. I don't know if it will automatically install tonight as I postponed it when it finished downloading.
[Verizon LG G2] jesssiii:
No, the updater thingy. If it's really frozen, it shouldn't auto update. You can delete it instead. Also, move the update file itself out of the fota folder in system so it won't install itself, just in case.

---------- Post added at 04:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:30 PM ----------

I'm on Liquid ATM, so I don't know what that updater is called, sorry. But it has update in the name and it's a system app, so look in titanium for it and freeze or delete it.
[Verizon LG G2] MosesTheTool:
For the noobs (like me!), need to clarify:

When the OP said "Rename the file to dlpkgfile and push it to /cache/fota/", he means:

Start ADB window, Type this command:

Adb push dlpkgfile /cache/fota/

this process will take alot of time, because it's pushing a very large file to the device, and there is no status bar, so just wait patiently for a few minutes until it says it is done.

Then you need to execute the commands the OP said, in "ADB SHELL", so before the commands you need to do:

Adb shell

Hope i helped :P
[Verizon LG G2] lotero:
Hello. "echo" step didn't work. I created manually a command file with "--update_package=/cache/fota/dlpkgfile" inside and run the next step, by my phone didn´t rebooted.

Do you know where could be the problem?

[Verizon LG G2] Cloudyfa:
I can open the file normally with WinRAR (On PC), so maybe that's because its too large. You guys can try open it with WinRAR and delete modem.img then copy it to your storage and flash again? (you can flash BB later). Or I'll separate them and upload again.
[Verizon LG G2] Chuckleb0ne:
So if we delete modem.img we should be able to flash?

[Mobile Ad Networks] TheGTS:
Hey guys, im having an issue with admob interstitial ad.

When I exit the ad it takes 1-2 seconds to go back to the app. Usually in other apps or games, it goes straight to the app upon pressing X or pressing Back.

Any reason why there is a delay and any fix to it?
[Mobile Ad Networks] auricPuneet:
Check your onAdClosed method in the class implementing AdListener. Are you doing something CPU intensive there? If you post a bit more code, we might be able to help.
[Mobile Ad Networks] TheGTS:
Thanks for the reply, I really appreciate it.

At the start of the battle the full screen ad is loaded but not shown. Once the player dies, the full screen ad pops up fast which is good but takes 1-2 seconds to get back to the app once its closed.

Here is the full code, that's all really.
[Mobile Ad Networks] TheGTS:
I am using Unity3d.
[Mobile Ad Networks] auricPuneet:
The code you posted only shows how you are loading the Ad and showing it. Are you doing anything when closing it? May be you are switching scene right after the Ad is closed, and its taking time to load the objects in memory.

I will cede ground to someone more experienced in Unity 3d though. I have just begun getting my feet wet in it.
[Mobile Ad Networks] TheGTS:
I am not doing anything to close it. Seems like AdMob does that on its own.

Not sure if Unity has a function for onAdClosed().

[Mobile Ad Networks] Paulie Pham:
don't depend on Admob

I got the same problem too but everything is normal 2 days afterwards (strange though). But the incident made me wonder: "should I always depend on Admob?".

So I decide to combine several Ad networks. It works. And I realize something about Admob:

Pros: It is reliable and has huge users database. Admob is backed by Google - a prestigious corporation who tracks every steps of anyone who use its service.

Cons:

- Its eCPM is low (I don't know exactly why but everytime I try another Ad network, they outperform Admob in terms of eCPM. I guess that Admob know it has advantages over competitors when it comes to reputation and users database, so It charge advertisers and publishers more)

- Its ban users more frequently. (Some of my friends' accounts got banned because Google thinks they was cheating, while infact he didn't. It was very difficult for him to reach Google support to recover his accounts).

after combining Admob and with Airpush, Leadbolt, StartApp, ChartBoost, I end up with Adsota - a lesser known ad network. Adsota is an has much higher eCPM, 100% fill-rate, variousa ads format, and swift payment. You can find it by googling "ads.appota".

Best of luck, mate!

Needing expert help. I have a rooted LG G2 D801 with a custom ROM installed. Was stupid enough to accept the most recent OTA and now it just continually goes into TWRP. Have tried to reinstall custom ROM from TWRP. Have tried the LG software to install the kdz file. Always gets stuck at step after extracting the kdz file. Even took it to a local guy and he got stuck in the same place.

I just want the phone back in working order. Don't care which ROM. Will pay $20 for anyone with the working answer.

Thx.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x714x:
you can do a couple things. Sideload a new rom from your computer. Google how to setup the drivers and do it. OR from what Ive read you can delete the system partition like you are gonna flash a new rom then you wont get stuck when using the kdz to go back to stock.

Also look on the forums, I think you can run a command via shell in twrp to delete the fota dir and it should boot to. Dont quote me on that

[Moto X Q&A] M973:
Ok, hope I don't get too much heat over this, my old device was a Samsung with unlocked bootloader, so everything was easily flashed.

Anyway, as to the best order of things, I'm still on AT&T 4.2.2 pre camera update, so I easily rooted with with pwnmymoto. I have Xposed installed with a few modules.

For the unlock steps -looks like this is the best guide: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=51363645&postcount=394 and using: https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-c

Q: Is my recovery from pwnmymoto "stock" as it needs to be for unlocking process?

Can I just uncheck/disable the modules I have with xposed, or do I need to delete the framework? (which sounds like the only way is to use RSD to install the original ROM?)

Should I also unfreeze any files? (I think I only froze the one's related to motorola OTA)

My intent is to get to 4.4.2, and I know it's optimal to remove things from pwnmymoto (I know unlocking will wipe everything but my ROM), so probably after I've installed TWRP and rooted, to flash the file for AT&T 4.4.2 http://xdaforums.com/moto-x/general/-t2688009 or does it need to be incremental, as I'm on 4.2 (i.e flash 4.2 camera update, then 4.4, etc.) -sorry if I seem a bit confused :confused:

Thanks in advance! :) any and all help is very much appreciated!
[Moto X Q&A] M973:
Hopefully not too many questions -if any has the best suggestion for any, would be great :)
[Moto X Q&A] drago10029:
Just to be clear if you eant 4.4.2 stock use the xposed framework disabler, it said leaving the modules was ok according to the link you posted. I don't know personally.

But honestly if your unlocking the bootloader then just go to 4.4.2 first then unlock since you'll lose everything. I believe bootloader unlock wipes the system parition too. I don't know for sure.
[Moto X Q&A] M973:
I think 4.4.2 isn't fully released yet OTA for AT&T, so it would be flashing to stock and taking each OTA in sequence to 4.4 I think? I believe the framework disabler is a zip that needs to be flashed, so that would only be after I have a custom recovery.

I just don't want to mess up anything, want to make sure I have the right recovery for unlocking, and that I've disabled anything that could cause an issue.

Edit: from the pwnmymoto thread, Jcase writes: "In the process we remove stock recovery, so OTAs will not be a worry."

I guess that means i don't have stock recovery?

Edit: I was thinking I needed stock recovery, I guess I just need fastboot which is what I have?

I just want to make sure, if anyone has unlocked from pwnmymoto

Thanks

I have a Verizon M7 HTC One. I am rooted and S-off - running the stock rom by Santod. ROM/RADIO/KERNEL][4.4.2] Stock m7vzw Kitkat | 3.11.605.1 | Rooted | Deodex/Odex | Debloat/Full | UPDATED 02-06-14. I am running the Odex Full Rom.

I would have posted this in that forum but I don't have enough posts to do so yet.

I try to get my wifi hotspot / tether working, but every time I flash it in TWRP I get "Unfortunately the dialer has stopped" when it boots back up. I hit ok and it just keeps coming back over and over. The phone is unusable because of the persistent message. I have restored my backup so I am back to the working ROM - no hotspot.

Had the exact same issue, but I was on the OTA stock rom rooted with S-off. Wiping Dalvik and Cache didn't fix it, and I didn't do a Nandroid to restore to, so I used that opportunity to wipe and install Santod's Odex Bloat free rom. Obviously there is something in the mod that doesn't play nice with the framework, but I am not smart enough to know how to fix it.
