HELP!

SO I tried to install this beauty and now I cant install anything. So I accidentally formatted system and storage and everything else. Now I cant install any rom and I don't know what to do. I tried to use unified android toolkit but it is giving me the error saying: device not found. I don't know what to do please help! Thanks in advance!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] vomer:
:)

That's how we roll :cool:

It allowed root - it's a legacy file now as all you need to do is flash the rom + the patched supersu in OP and you are set! I left up the link for anyone who still wants it.

lol...not sure if intentional typo but I enjoyed this one :silly:

It's ok guys let's all be friends now and help each other! I will try to answer as much as possible but please check op for tips as well :highfive:

you need to patch your kernel by checking the kernel option in the Install/Update section, assuming u are using the stock kernel. And you need to do so in order to boot the secondary rom

I don't know how to push the rom into the sd card/internal drive. I'm keep getting message: device not found in unified android toolkit while I trie to sideload the rom.

It should flash fine.

It sounds like you didn't unmount the system prior to flashing. It should flash quick in recovery, like normal. When the system begins to boot, it'll take a bit longer.

Unmount [remove the checkmark] from the system option from the mounts menu, and try reflashing.

System was not mounted in the first place, I went to unmount it but there was already no check mark.Is that bad?

I just rebooted it, restored my nandroid of 4.4.3, put the new rom on the sd card and am trying to flash again. Same thing stuck flashing where it says skipping MD5 check.

Any idea what the miscellaneous battery drain is from?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Seattleite:
Okay, 2 quick things...

First, and I'll admit, I didn't search (but I have read the first 100 or so pages, and the latest 20 as well), but it seems some people mention the '0' folder that I recall became a thing back around the time of Jellybean. My question is, does this happen to everyone, or is it a result of multiple attempts? And does anyone know if it's a thing when flashing from the Google images as opposed to the zip?

Lastly, Vomer, congrats on the success man! You've come a long way from the lead modder of Minco on the Gnex! Those were good times, and this just shows they're getting better! Congrats!

[Nexus 5 Android Development] vomer:
Ahh a wild Minco user appears!! :D Yes, those were the days when I started on this journey :) Thanks for your positive comments!

Yes, this was a similar issue back in the jellybean days - it looks isolated atm to users that do not wipe the sdcard partition - I believe "L" has a change in paths and it's cause the issue ultimately.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] sona911:
Re: [ROM] N5 L Developer Preview LPV79 (flashable) + Root & Busybox + IMG & Sys Dump

I have found a way to "manually" restore apps data from titanium backup files. I have used it to restore Google Authenticator and WhatsApp Messenger. You need to go inside your titanium backup folder and locate the backup files for your app. There should be two files for each app which end with the extension ".gz". One of the two files is for the apk and since you have either installed the app from the play store or from titanium backup then you don't need it. Now copy the other "tar.gz" file to any folder so you keep the original file intact. Go to that folder and using ZArchiver extract the contents of that file which should be a ".tar" file. Now again extract the contents of that file which shall be a folder named Data\Data\". Inside that folder is the folder for the application data files. I believe in WhatsApp case it was called "com.whatsapp" now just copy this folder as it is using Root Explorer to the Data\Data\" folder on your phone's root directory. It will ask for confirmation that you want to merge the new folder with the existing folder, you should select "Yes". After this is done, reopen your app and data has been restored. Hopefully this helps.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Roll3r:
See, I've got the same opinion of people who feel the need to include, in their signature, a list of every phone they've ever owned, every ROM they've ever flashed, etc. It does nothing but add bulk to the thread and creates, in my opinion, a bad impression.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] drawde40599:
The zips and the IMG should be exactly the same , personally I will never choose a zip over a IMG if IMG is available . the zip just makes it easy for inexperienced users or users that don't have computer available ATM ..... And its good to alwasy have a copy of your current ROM on your device in zip form . I went back to 4.4.4 (L isn't polished enough for me yet ) but I didn't have ANY issues at all with anything that came with the ROM , it was 3rd party apps that are not ready causing issues . root worked fine also .

[Nexus 5 Android Development] teh roxxorz:
Make sure the system is not mounted in your respective recovery - that'll be the biggest culprit.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] T72018:
I've had the same issue. Followed instructions. When I checked the system was not mounted to begin with. I tried flashing twice and it said failed.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] chasew83:
Yeah its not mounted. Never was to begin with. I'll do let check it again though
[Nexus 5 Android Development] vomer:
rebooting recovery also helps resolve issues
[Nexus 5 Android Development] vomer:
The TWRP mount/unmount is pretty iffy. I would recommend rebooting recovery - unmounting system and following the steps all over
[Nexus 5 Android Development] T72018:
I just noticed that as you do the wipe after it says wipe completed, you have to go back in and un-mount system. For some reason after the wipe it checks the system box on its own. Uncheck it again then flash. Someone else above my post posted the same info tho. It took me a couple tries, but I got it right now.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] mustangtim49:
So does anyone have any ideas about the tethering issue? I've checked the thread and I see it mentioned, but not much more. My laptop connects to my phone, but it says limited access. It's pretty freakin limited because it doesn't do a damn thing, lol. I noticed my daughter's phone was not just able to connect period. Unfortunately, this is my home's internet access, so, gotta go through the whole re-flash CM, which normally wouldn't be a big deal, until you notice that your backups are hiding among L's new directories. What I'm getting at is for me to mess with it, i give up internet access on everything but my phone, which makes searching and resolving connection issues on my laptop kinda difficult. The way my laptop connects with limited access leads me to believe the fix is probably not too difficult. I'll continue working on my end, but any help or insight would be great, thanks peeps.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Tzfardaya:

Most of them don't understand knowledge, or information... They just want someone to spoonfeed them the steps to "fix da brok'n stuf"

Those one I ignore, the ones who come in, say what they've tried, detail what's wrong, and ask for a direction to look next... Those ones I help, they deserve it, they understand that information given, but not earned is useless.... Knowledge has to be striven for, worked for...

[Nexus 5 Android Development] PunkOz:
Guys remember that wiping cache and fixing permissions can fix some issues ;) I couldnt open Clash of Clans at all, rebooted into TWRP, wiped cache of L in multirom and rebooted and it worked fine, fixdd permissions too.

I didn't unmount system to install L though, just flashed like any other secondary ROM :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Tzfardaya:
Why is Android L going to fellate apple? That just seems wrong on so many levels....
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mustangtim49:
I had the same problem earlier, it took a full wipe and reinstall. I'm guessing something to do with L writing a new directory and the fact we don't wipe our emulated storage. On the second install I think the camera recognizes the new directory, just a guess, but that's what worked for me.

Sprint MMS issue

Not to go back to beating the dead horse of Sprint MMS, but I have a couple of questions. I went into the APN settings on the phone with the *#*#3282#*#* code... under More>Advanced it had the MNC listed as 00 instead of 120. I tried to change it to see if making that match the APN settings in Hangouts would do the trick, but it would only let me input 2 digits.

Questions: Could it possibly fix the MMS issue if the number could be edited to 120? How can you make it accept 3 digits?

Also, I noticed that the build.prop didnt have some of the usual options that reflect MCC and MNC, is there a way to add those options? Or would it even matter?

Last but not least... I tried changing the apns-conf.xml file out to one that had the appropriate Sprint settings (the one that comes in this build was only European carriers), but it didnt help with getting MMS either.

If I somehow missed information pertinent to my questions, I apologize in advance... I searched the thread and I searched the crap out of Google before I posted.

Thanks
