[Sprint LG G2] Tannereed:
I don't know of a way to flash the stock recovery over TWRP. I would imagine somebody has figured it out. But I do know the OTA's are extremely sensitive and they check for more then just the stock recovery. Back when the ZVC/B update came out I hadn't even flashed a recovery yet, just rooted, and I unrooted and took it and it didn't work. So I'd copy all your belongings onto your computer, make a back up and copy it on your computer as well. TOT your phone. Update. Then come back later and put your files back onto your device and use Titanium backup to take your apps and data off of the backup you made.

Maybe somebody else know of a different way. But you can brick your phone taking an OTA with system modifications, and that will be a whole lot more work than rooting and flashing a recovery again.

Good luck! :good:
[Sprint LG G2] patheticpuma:
Oh I know its a lot of work. I got this phone from a guy who took the zvc update while rooted and it was stuck in a boot loop with download mode unavailable. Fortunately the great resource that is this forum had the information available to get it going. I would like to not do that again. I have everything backed was just hoping to find a way around it.

Thanks for your reply.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paroxy:
Need the stock nandroid backup of 1.54.709.12 i.e HTC__621 CID.

The stock nandroid backup that is available in the forums is after the bootloader was unlocked and hence /data/preload/ folder along with its apks was wiped out.

This stock nandroid backup is needed if i have to install the new OTA update(2.22.709.3) which is failing as of now because of the missing files in that folder /data/preload/....

Thanks in advance!!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pastahl:
Hello,

I have a SM-P600 (32G) with failed factory reset that left the device soft-bricked so that booting to Download and recovery works, but OS-booting leaves the device freezed after boot animations (With stock-ROM). Flashing new recovery programs work and below results are from ABD Shell with CWM recovery flashed to the device.

Below are results from /proc/mounts, /partitions and /devices. It seems that NAND block device or its partitions are not listed in results.

I was wondering what can be the reasons for this behavior, and what can be done in order to get the NAND device back online?

Is there a way to manually re-initialize the device? Or some debugging tips to narrow down the problem?

Your help will be much appreciated if I manage to get this brick back alive without buying a new system board for it.

Hi, im currently Rooted running ARHD 8.1.

However, i have trouble updating my software to ARHD 10.1 (to Android 4.4.3) because i lacked S-Off.

So i found a way to S-Off on which is to use firewater however it didn't work.

Is there something wrong with my ONE M8?

Is it just not supported?

Are there anyother way i could get it to S-Off?

Thank you!!!

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] landsofwinter:
Hello, I've always wondered why my Nexus 5 can't view flag emoji's, I figured it's just not part of the OS. However, earlier today I spotted someone using a flag on Instagram that I was actually able to see, after some research I ran into this image and the flags that are on this image are the same ones that I saw on Instagram. Which makes me wonder why can I see them but not use them? They're labelled as "Google's codepoints". Is there anyway I can use these or incorporate them into my phone? Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 5590068:
Is the person who used those emoji's on iOS? If so the reason you can't use them is because Google decided to remove them and replace them with the letters that represent countries instead. (IIRC)

I think you might be able to use kii keyboard or something and download a custom emoji plugin that's not based on google and you'll have it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] landsofwinter:
I'm not sure if the person was using iOS or not, I doubt it though cause I was able to see the flag, and that never happens. Also, I know I can download emoji plugins for keyboards but they only support the iOS flags, I just want to figure out how I can use the ones listed under "Google's codepoints" as I'm 100% sure I can view those flags, but they're not on my keyboard. :/

After uninstall i got a message said that Android.process.acore force close. And after that i try to restart phone and want to know if my phone will stuck at logo or not. But it was luckily that it dont stuck. But what is the matter? When i open contact and dialer to call anyone it force close everytime. And playstore also got problem. It said that no connection. My gmail also no connection and sometime force close. I try to open internet from default brower and internet work well but cant download anything from it. But if use other browser then it work well.

NOW is there anyone can help me for a solution?

also can u give me a link for download Android.pricess.acore and stock contact dialer for grand duos?

the for any help.
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] duke_dreadmoore:
Maybe u deleted an important apk.. as I remember, acore is not an apk,but if you delete an important dependencies, it will force close, and of course everything will go crazy.

Better for you to download a custom rom and install it fresh.

I suggest, you should have cwm recovery installed before making any modification to the current rom.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jacobmiw:
So, maybe someone can help me out here. I wanted to install Kit Kat Killer. This is what happens:

Rooting Process

1. I used Odin to install the root automatically.

2. I verified the root.

3. SuperUser and BusyBox installed.

4. Used Odin to install TWRP.

Recovery

1. Booted into TWRP.

2. Accidentally forgot to Nandroid Backup.

3. Wiped internal data, wiped everything else except SD Card.

4. Went to install Kit Kat Killer. Got some failed messages about some usb folder being unable to be mounted.

5. Rebooted phone. Re-downloaded everything and moved to SD.

6. Still fails.

Google time...

1. Downloaded some files from the links/forums I came across. None of these two files will flash through Odin, saying FAIL!

a. N900PVPUBMJ4_N900PSPTBMJ4_N900PVPUBMJ4_HOME.tar

b. N900PVPUBMI3_N900PSPTBMI3_N900PVPUBMI3_HOME.tar

2. TWRP can't be added through ODIN anymore as far as I know. I was using version

Now...

1. TWRP is gone.

2. Phone is stuck in "ODIN MODE" for recovery (?).

3. I can't get past the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 screen.

4. When I get the yellow triangle about needing Kies3 for an emergency firmware repair, it does NOT recognize my phone. Yes, I am using Kies 3. It says I am using an unsupported phone.

5. It does say SW REV CHECK FAIL.

I am at a total loss here. I know it's a soft brick, but for the life of me, I can not figure out what to do next.

Thanks for all your help!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jacobmiw:
Just got it back into TWRP mode. It keeps saying:

"E: Unable to mount /usbstorage"

Then when it tries to install KitKatKiller, it checks for the MD5 (on the SD too in the same directory), it says FAIL. I think this whole issue is based on the usbstorage thing.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jacobmiw:
Right now, I am going to download the latest Sprint stock ROM and see if I can flash it in TWRP. This will take at least 50 minutes to get going (30 for download/20 for file transfer). So plenty of time for you guys to jump in and say otherwise :P

Really, I appreciate all of your help!!! I am sure I made a n00b mistake. I had no real problems with my GSIII or EVO 4G once I got the hang of things :P
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jacobmiw:
I think you guys can close this thread. I am not sure what the hell happened, but I wiped my SD card after copying the KitKatKiller ROM to another folder on the internal SD. I had forgotten to include the MD5 file in the same folder as well, but it finally installed. Right now, the phone is showing KitKatKiller logo spinning and booting up, so I presume the phone will be fine from this point, and if not, I will use Kies 3 to return it to stock and give it a try again. Again, you can close this thread, I feel like an idiot but it all worked out for some odd reason. I'm still not sure why I was getting "unable to mount usbstorage" errors.

Thanks again for everyone taking a look!!!!!!

Glad you figured your issues out. Just popped into tell you that twrp fails mounting USB because it's looking for an external USB. Not to worry its supposed to fail unless you have a USB drive plugged in through an otg cable.

Is this your own wi-fi, or are you using a hotspot provided by a restaurant, supermarket, Kinkos, etc? Hotspots from places like this often require you to "log in". If this is the case, you need to load a browser and try going to a page, and you'll be directed to their own page, where you'll have to accept their terms and conditions in some manner, then you'll be good to go with Play Store and whatever else.
