Thanks for everyone the really usefull hints, and advices! Almost everything is fine now...

but I still don't have the phone IMEI.

Any idea how to get back the original?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
The simplest solution

Hey my friends,

it's been a while since the last one postet something in this thread but now I also discovered an easy method to convert your device back into a fully working GPE-Rom.

This guide will help you if:

you're temporarily running a custom ROM (method from the OP) OR

you allready recovered your 4.4.2 / 4.4.4 STOCK rom.

So what I did is actually really really simple: I just grabbed the Verizon US 4.4.4 image from 'sbf.droid-developers.com' (it's the only available 4.4.4 factoy image right now) and flashed first the gpt image and then the motoboot image.

AFTER THAT

Iswitched over to my extractet 4.4.2 GPE firmware and started to flash everything else, EXCPET gpt and motoboot. -> You know the process guys: first logo, then boot, recovery, system, etc. ;)

Finally you just reboot and (at least I was) you're fine.

If I helped anybody, pls hit thanks; If you know it better, feel free to reply :P

Please can somebody help me?

This is my situation: I was running android 4.4.4 STOCK on my Moto G (XT1032). I wanted to flash stock image 4.4.2 and failed.

So now my Phone is bricked. I tried to follow this tutorial but the problem is: Fastboot is working but ADB is Not working!

I have tried everything, but when I type in adb devices I get -> List of devices attached but I can't see my phone's ID.

How to solve this??
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luxinseattle:
Before I state the problem, I would like to say this is self inflicted and I should have been more careful. But hindsight is 20/20.

I recently got an M8. Rooted, TWRPd it, and deleted a bunch of bloatware (or so I thought) using the TWRP File Manager. In the process, I think I deleted the Calendar Provider service apk. Now my calendar doesnt work and I randomly get this message your Exchange service has stopped unexpectedly eventhough, my exchange email is coming through.

I was a dummy and didnt do a backup thinking I am only deleting a bunch of unwanted stuff. What can I do now. I tried downloading some version of this SecCalendarProvider.apk from the internet and put it in the system/apps folder but nothing has changed. I dont think it even got started.

What can I do at this point? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

This section is for HTC One (M7)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mike-y:
go to the M8 forum and request an apk for that file and see if you can copy it back to your phone. you will need a file explorer with root access.

For future tinkering, use a program like Titanium Backup that allows you to "freeze" and backup apps, in addition to deleting them.

You can freeze suspect apps which will remove them from being seen in the OS, but it won't delete them. If no problems occur after a while, you can safely delete it. But if you discover a problem, you can "defrost" the file and you are good again. you can also make backups of apps before deleting them.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Belac77:
I'm very surprised to find that there is no way to get to the camera from the lockscreen of my M7. I'm using the Google Now launcher, and everything is going great except for that.

How can such a simple yet important feature be missing? This might be the number one thing I miss about my iPhone so far.

Please tell me there's a way to get to the camera straight from the lockscreen!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] StormyNight:
On my phone, I can get to the camera without even entering my pattern code, but then again it's using the HTC Sense launcher. Also, you have to make sure that a setting called Bypass lock screen (or something, not sure, don't have my phone on hand) is unticked.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Belac77:
Yeah, I've made sure the Bypass settings are correct, so I suppose it must be the Google Now launcher's fault?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] StormyNight:
Possibly. BTW, on my tablet that's running CyanogenMod, if you swipe to the right, you can access the camera, if you go to the lock screen settings and enable camera widget. Ofc though, that's trebuchet.

[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcipopnevets:
You can attempt to root using Motorola Pie from jcase. In terms of downgrading, unless you have an unlocked bootloader, you're out of luck due to the bootloader security check.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pbaldw10:
Just to be perfectly clear, I can downgrade if I have unlocked bootloader?
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joel_sinbad:
I THINK, I THINK, I THINK.... that you can downgrade if you flash manually everything EXCEPT the motoboot.img
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcipopnevets:
Yes, you can. Resources can be found HERE: http://waynekent.com/page8.html

However, never take the OTA on the custom FXZs. Your phone will be hard bricked. :)
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joel_sinbad:
Well, not hard bricked, I bought a Droid Maxx that someone flashed the Moto X 4.4.2 bootloader, and tried to flash the old Maxx one, just flashed again the Moto X bootloader and problem fixed.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcipopnevets:
I meant if you take an OTA prompt whilst on the incomplete downgraded firmware, the phone will become an unrecoverable paperweight once it tries to go to recovery ;)

Why someone would mess with bootloaders is beyond comprehension. Glad your Maxx is up and running!
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joel_sinbad:
The 4.4.2 on the Moto X is running the 30.B4 bootloader, in theory, if we receive and upgrade to 4.4.2 or better, is probably that bootloader is bundled to the OTA, so I think i'm going to be fine... I hope.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcipopnevets:
My theory, as long as the phone is operational, everything's fine. Be happy you managed to revive it, man!

[Moto X Q&A] yankeesfan714:
Hey guys. At what point do you lose the ability to OTA update? Is it when you unlock your bootloader or when you install custom recovery and SuperSU?
[Moto X Q&A] Dark9781:
I've had no issues updating OTA while rooted and unlocked. It only becomes an issue if you modify the system. You will also not be able to update OTA if you have a custom recovery installed. However, to play it completely safe it is always best to go back to stock if you are doing an OTA.
[Moto X Q&A] shane1:
Installing a custom recovery and messing with system apps will cause an ota to fail. Unlocking and SU alone won't make it fail
[Moto X Q&A] Restola:
Leave system apps alone and flash back to the stock recovery prior to accepting the ota.
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
Since the OTA can only install via stock recovery, installing a custom recovery is technically the point at which you lose the ability to do an OTA update.

to quote SOME of what I put here -> http://mark.cdmaforums.com/MotoX-OTA.html

So any any point you deviate from stock too much, an OTA will fail to install.

(there is more info at that link)

If all you have done is unlocked the bootloader, flashed custom recovery, and installed SuperSU to root... then installed root capable apps like Adfree, Wifi Tether for root, Greenify, or others that don't mess with system files and the like, you can just flash stock recovery back on to take an OTA.

If you unlock the bootloader, flash custom recovery, and install SuperSU to root... then alter the build.prop, remove or rename the BLOAT APK's from your phone, install Xposed, etc. You'll have some work to do getting back to "stock" to take the OTA.
[Moto X Q&A] dmonleo:
Does this also apply to moto x non-dev devices?
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
Yes. Every device with an unlocked bootloader is essentially a 'non official' Dev edition (although unlike the Dev edition, your warranty is void).
[Moto X Q&A] dmonleo:
We always got "swappa"!
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
While Not Explicitly stated on -> http://mark.cdmaforums.com/MotoX-OTA.html yes, that info about the conditions for taking an OTA applies to ALL Moto X's... Dev Edition, Non-Dev Edition, Moto Maker, Retail, etc. With locked bootloader and with Unlocked Bootloader.

What [MENTION=2509024]samwathegreat[/MENTION] replied to you is very accurate. From a functional stand point, once you unlock the bootloader on a Non-Dev Edition... your phone acts as if you have a Dev Edition.. (Except your warranty is void). And it doesn't matter if you have a Rogers Wireless, Sprint, GSM Unlocked, etc... and got your code from Moto, or you had a Verizon Non-Dev or ATT or Republic wireless and got the code from the Chinese website or middleman.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cidlover:
Hello, and I need a bit of help with my port of Mokee.

Now, I did follow the guides to port any I9100 rom to the I777 but on boot up and setup, systemui keeps crashing to no end.

The second problem is when the phone goes to sleep, it will never wake back up afterwards. I don't know if systemui is causing that problem.

I did replace libandroidfw.so in the zips /system/lib/ folder but that didn't help when I flashed over the modded zip

Any help at this point will be great, Mokee Boots up and it looks like everything works, but I cant adb logcat or anything adb because I can't allow the computer from the phone because of the looping systemui crash.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
My first suspicion would be you're using incompatible gapps. System.ui crashes usually occur because of conflicts, missing code strings etc. Make sure you're wiping /system, all caches and /preload before booting.

And I wouldn't mess with replacing libs - that guide you're using is good but outdated (especially the modules and lib files).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cidlover:
The gapps I was using was Miles gapps. It was the the I9100 thread of the forums.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
Never heard of Miles gapps - best to use BaNkS, PA or Slim gapps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cidlover:
Sorry. I meant Mokee gapps. But I'll try those gapps and hope it works with one of them. :)

EDIT: I tried the ROM by itself and the systemui till crashed and never recovered upon boot up, but ill try the latest nightly and go from there
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ghost0001:
I read a few threads and am confused, so I thought I would just ask. I have a few 4G LTE devices for Verizon and am ready to switch to AT&T. Let's just say that Verizon and I had an argument and it is time to switch. Plus I would be saving over $50 to switch to AT&T with a month to month with a BYOP plan.

I visited the AT&T store today and had them insert a SIM into my S4. I get the error "This SIM card is from an unknown source" in the banner. I get a signal strength and a H for where the data symbol 4GLTE is. Then it drops the signal and refuses to have a data connection. At this time the APN settings were NOT adjusted. This was a straight out of the box S4 rooted on NC5 with Android version 4.4.2. After messing with the S4 for awhile he moved to the S3 and entered the proper APN settings. It pulled data, but only at EDGE speeds or 1X. Also, my last device, a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2, has no way of editing the APN settings. It is NOT rooted and is still on stock firmware.

My questions are these:

1. Can this be done?

2. What do I need to do to the phone(s)/tablet to make it work?

3. Will I be able to get 4G speeds?

I do not want to purchase phones with AT&T today because I just don't have the money. I already have these devices, I just want to swap them over. I am comfortable with flashing using ODIN and even so far as using safe-strap. I have flashed some custom roms, but my phone is a daily grind phone and I really want something that works 90% of the time.

Thanks in advance for any help!

EDIT:

None of the codes work either:

It was an answer to this same question asked by you. This thread is redundant.

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4-verizon/help/verizon-to-att-t2801297
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ghost0001:
That thread just asks if the SIM card would work and if they would need to flash a GSM ROM to their S4. That thread does not answer the questions I asked. I just gave my insight after a visit with the AT&T store. Store techs tend to not know as much as the XDA community. That is why I asked here. So no, it is not a redundant thread. I appreciate your answer, but it isn't what I am looking for. Not a straight up yes or no, this or that.

As for the GSM locks I discussed, it was from an experience I had with a Motorola Droid 2 and using it on a local GSM provider in the USA. So yes, that was pre LTE.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
My point, which you apparently missed, is that there is no reason for starting up yet another thread to ask questions that have already been answered. That''s why I said that this is redundant.

OK, let me answer your questions.

1. Can this be done?

Yes, you can install an AT&T SIM, set up the APN, and it will work. What bands you get and what bandwidth you get depends on what bands AT&T are using in your area. You won't likely be able to get LTE speed; most likely just Edge. You can't fix that, as it's a limitation of the phone's radio hardware. Again, some people have made claims that you can flash the AT&T GS4 modem on a Verizon phone and change that, but that's pretty risky as it will likely brick your phone.

2. What do I need to do to the phone(s)/tablet to make it work?

It works, for some level of "work". If you're stock,some people have reported that the firmware requires CDMA for some functions, like SMS. I haven't verified that. I was able to send SMS with my phone and a UK SIM which uses the AT&T network.

3. Will I be able to get 4G speeds?

Not likely. For example, see here http://phandroid.com/2012/12/10/nexus-4-att-lte/ - the common band, LTE Band 4, has limited AT&T coverage.

I haven't gone over the specs of the two phones lately to match them up, so that may be worth looking at again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ghost0001:
Thank you for your answer. I decided to trade the phones into AT&T and get a credit towards a Samsung S4 and a Asus Padphone X. After I read a few more posts over the internet and a few more hours figuring out how LTE works I came across the answer. I did miss what you meant and I apologize. Again, thank you for your answer.
[General Questions and Answers] Vicolodo:
Hello,

I bought the 'created N7',

a 7 inch phablet that is like the ulefone u7/tronsmart ps7/luftco a onex/orientphone mega pro 7 etc..., and is sold by the factory with 4.4.2 installed

I found a bug in this product

The bug is about the bad working of the s-view window.

I link here a video where is possible to see how it should work:

http://youtu.be/lk1P9jziw64

The problem is that with the created N7 it is not possible to answer

to the calls without opening the flip cover:

when the N7 receive a call, the s-view window is not sensitive, so it

is not possible to answer

The sview with cover closed is sensitive only for a few seconds after the cover has ben closed, specifically only before the sview goes in standby (black screen)...after the standby, wakening the phone by a call or simply pressing the power button (without opening the cover) the sview seems not sensitive

These are two videos that shows the problem:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EG6D...e_gdata_player

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-By6...e_gdata_player

This should be fixed, because is an important feature that is missing:

the phones like N7 of other brands (like ulefone u7/u69, luftco a-one

x, tronsmart ps7, orientphone mega pro 7) instead have a fully

functional s-view window

I already informed some created online sellers (kent wang, peter

yang... ) about this bug,

they told me that they will contact the engineer... but i have

not answer yet...i think they are not able to solve this problemi...

A seller told me that they send the leather case for free,

Its a gift , so i cannot ask them to fix this problem ��

Can someone help me to fix this problem?

I tried installing firmware of other device (luftco a onex 4.4.2)

But nothing has changed ...(and by the way i found that the luftco firmware

does not fit with my n7...the camera does not work with it)

Any hint?

Any suggestion?

I did some tests i found that actually the sview is sensitive also after the standby, but not enought to feel the touches through the screen...

in the settings there is an option 'increase touch sensitivity to allow the control through sview screen',

seems that this high sensitivity status is not reactivated if the cover is not opened after the phone goes to standby...

How can i fix this problem? perhaps some fix on touch drivers is needed?

Please help me!

Thank you!
