I am running a Sprint LG Nexus 5 4.4.2. I wiped the dalvik cache but it was taking a while. I then rebooted the device and now i cannot access the storage in my device. When I take a screenshot I get a notification that says storage might be in use. When i did that i cannot access any network services and while i am not on WiFi the date on my phone is incorrect. I am open to suggestions and help to fix this issue.

Google nexus 5 factory image, download it. Then extract it using using 7-zip or winrar. Inside is a zip file, extract that too. There you'll find the cache.img. flash that in fastboot, fastboot flash cache cache.img

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vin4yak:
Switch Off your phone. Hold down power button + Volume down button until it gets to the bootloader. From the bootloader navigate to Recovery using the volume buttons and then press power button to select it. Once in recovery if you don't see any options (just a dead android logo) press the volume up button a couple of times till the options show up. You can wipe cache from there as well!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bob1866@gmail.com:
My partner's S III recently developed a problem using the standard Samsung 4.3 OS, it kept halting in the the middle of an application and later started continuously rebooting. As the phone was as far as I was aware, out of warranty and someone suggested there could be a s/w issue, I decided to root the phone and install a custom 4.4.2 ROM (I initially went for the one of the cyanogenmod 4.4.2 ROMs), to see whether that would resolve the problem. Initially, the ROMs I tried all generated error messages and failed to install,until I tried the Revolutioniary S5 V2 ROM, which installed perfectly.

However, it states that iti is a 4.3, rather than 4.4.2 ROM. I ran the ROM for 5 days without any major issues, so decided to try the V3 ROM, as ir was stated that this was 4.4.2 in a number of articles.. Again the ROM installed really quickly and without a hitch. However, again the ROM said it was 4.3, and as soon as I tried to install applications (well it was the third install, Skype if I remember), and the phone turned itself off. Then it started continuously rebooting, which is what was happening before the V2 ROM was installed. managewd to stop this by removing and then putting back the battery, and managed to get the V2 ROM installed again. Ther are three questions:

1) Does anyone have any idea what the initial problem might have been?

2) Why did the V3 ROM actually cause the problem to reoccur?

3) Is there a genuine 4.4.2 release of the Revolutionary S5 ROM (which I am genuinely impressed by and happy with), and will it work with my phone? (specific model i9300)?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tallman43:
1) Not doing a full wipe/ formating system cache data etc or not using the latest recovery or combination of both

2) Not doing a full wipe/ formating system cache data etc or not using the latest recovery or combination of both

3) No

Also I find if switching between 4.3 roms and 4.4 roms (which I do alot) it is good idea to backup internal sd card and to format it (not all the time just if phone becomes really slow or has random reboots)

I just wish to say I'm not requesting an app to be built but inquiring if this app exists. The app I'm looking for is a music app which instead of reading MP3 files on the SD card, it natively stores the music and onto the app so their only read by the app. In other words If I was to go on my default music player, I wouldn't be able to find the music which is playable only the app ?!

i've read something about people having issues after flashing a new kernel after the hellsdoctor and that they needed to delete some files or something like this, but couldn't find an exact description what to do.

Could someone tell me what i need to delete or edit in order to change to another kernel without bricking my phone :p

I have a newly bought Cingular 8125 in India. I would love to Upgrade that.

Though the box says it is for UK, I can use with the service providers in India.

I assume it is unlocked already.(is it really?)

This is my device information at boot:-

IPL: 2.25

SPL: 2.25

GSM: 02.25.11

OS: 2.25.11.1

I am planning to use Molsky.Biz ROM available here:-

RUU_Molski.Biz_226102_22610105_022511_WWE (G3 Device. IPL/SPL like: 2.xx)

I hope my device is G3.

Do I need to CIDUnlock my device? What is the FullUnlock?

Molsky.Biz says:-

" Also DO NOT FORGET to CID UNLOCK your Wizard. This is only possible with LokiWiz 0.2b and

IPL/SPL 1.xx, if you have a CID LOCKED Wizard with IPL/SPL 2.xx.0001 flash a G4 Rom !! "

But My IPL/SPL is not 1.xx as you can see above in my details.

What should I do to unlock? Do I need to do that at all?

and what is meant by AKU? Do I need that?

I sold my nokia and communicator to buy this phone. So dont want to brick it because of my ignorance!

Please guide me.

Many Thanks.

Your phone is a G3. If the IPL and SPL has more than 2 digits after the first decimal (ie: 2.xx.xx) then it's a G4.

As for unlocking, that confuses the bejesus out of me.

I would say download the G3 ROM, figure out how to unlock your phone (if possible) and then you should be good to go.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] markgamber:
You SHOULD be scared given all the threads around here from people who trashed their phones. And I'd bet few of them could give a straight answer as to why they wanted to do so in the first place. So before you do anything, define why you want to update the rom. Does it do something specific that you absolutely can't live without and makes it worth the risk of ruining the phone? Maybe a custom rom is a tiny bit faster but in a day's time, will it make any difference? Probably not, and an operator rom that's a tiny bit slower is still a LOT faster than a dead phone. Don't forget that the moment you start flashing with anything but an operator approved rom, you're out of warrantee. if you absolutely MUST update the rom, then start reading the link above. Every question you asked has already been answered here many, many times. Is your phone a G3 or a G4? Better know BEFORE you start. Oops...you're at 55% and your PC crashes...what do you do? Better know BEFORE you start. The phone reboots and won't go past the splash screen, what do you do now? Better know BEFORE you start.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] hacksome:
Thank you all for the replies.

The main reason for flashing it to the new rom was speed and space considerations.

I was owning an XDA Mini earlier and successfully did the BigStorage and Rom updates.

But seeing many users bricking their wizard here and being not sure about the 'unlocking thing' i've decided to atleast not to venture into the bleeding edge atleast during my warranty period.

I know many questions might have been answered many a times, but the answers too are very contextual, they are different for different versions / models etc.

Hopefully I will do it sometime next year!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] shogunmark:
i would vote the warranty period is the best time to do it.. then you can tell your provider you tried to update their rom and now your phone dont work and let them send you a replacement...

Flashing isnt all that scary, the first time its a little nerve racking, but then again i like living on the edge...

So if your gonna do it, here is a quick simple explanation...

Downgrade to a 1.xx rom from the FTP site, after the your IPL/SPL should show 1.xx during boot up (mine actually differed, had IPL 1.xx SPL 2.xx and still unlocked just fine, some people claim to have issues though)

after successfully booting run lokwiz 2b (its the one i used) do the sim and supercid unlock.

Then reflash a stock 2.xx rom so that you are sure to get the updated bootloaders, after that has completed successfully then flash any rom you want..

its that simple, just a little time consuming

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 9600xt:
It's not a problem or a bug, it's only something that people doesn't know.

For some reason SONY made our Z2 software so only the built-in file manager and preinstalled apps can delete file on sd-card, so if you delete photo with gallery it will work, if you delete that photo with built-in file explorer (FK File Commander) it will work, BUT if you do the same thing with other file explorer or other apps like ES File Explorer or other apps, that apps simply can't delete sd-card content for real, they do it only apparently....

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sillumjai:
This is not a Sony bug. As mentioned earlier, it is a function of Kit Kat (4.x) Roms.

Use the built in Album app to organise/delete photos.

If you want to use Quicpic, or other apps, you need to be rooted and edit a system file, which is easily done. There's actually an app you can download in the Play store which will do this for you, "SDFix: KitKat Writable MicroSD" by NextApp Inc. You will need to be rooted, though.

It is indeed that I need to install the CWM.

But I found it to complicated. And you need to install/ alot lf stuff. This all so I can install Speedy Droid.

So I found in the play goolge and app called System App Remover and now I can uninstall Bloatware, other apk,... And it keeps it in a recycling bin, so if you deleted something you shouldn't, ypu can recover it.

And if you finally wants it to be removed, you can just delete it.

So I used the list of speedy droid, to see which apps. I could delete and just deleted it with this app.

i am not sure if finally it is worth to install CWM, but for now I am fine.

If there are cool stuff which I need CWM, please tell me. Because then I will install it also.

For now I am happy. i have around 125MB free memory and the phone runs smooth!!
