[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D0MINO:
I have this issue also on trying to use the video camera in the main camera app but I thought it might be related to tweaking the media_xxx.xml file to increase the 4k recording bitrate. I did save the original file but when I copied it back it still refused to work. I am going to restore to stock a bit later and hopefully it will work, but tbh I dont think I actually used it before I messed with this file so I'm not sure if it worked in the 1st place.

I am hoping it's not a hardware issue as I would have to send it back to South Korea to get it fixed :eek:
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suljo94:
did you rebot when you changed the file back and did you set permissions
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] la2o:
If the backup doesnt work, try reflashing a stock ROM. As it will reset the files. Gl sir
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sipock97:
I had something similar. I changed the camera to save to ext sd card. After that I got the same message. I assume it's the Kit Kat SD card issue. Changed back to save on device and all is well
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] D0MINO:
I did reboot but I did not remember to change the permissions..but I am guessing that since I copied the original file it would have kept the same permissions intact?

Anyhow, I restored back to stock because I wanted to upgrade to 10i so everything is working again and I don't have a hardware fault :victory:

Ah, I have always used Next SD Fix to deal with this but it only works on root. If ur rooted then try this app and see if ur able to write to SD again.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NotReallyKnown:
Hey guys, i'm posting here because I have a huge issue with my phone.

I think I have an idea of what caused my phone to go haywire, but i'm gonna post my phone specs:

Red Nexus 5 32gb

Rooted

Franco Kernel

4.4.2 (however, I think it may have somehow updated to 4.4.3 OTA somehow, which may be the root of the problems)

TWRP

Nandroid backup but done once i've been experiencing these problems

-The phone boots up normally and then abrubtly freezes.

-The dialogue "Unfortunately, the process com.android.systemui has stopped."

-I press ok, the screen turns black

-"Unfortunately, Update Device has stopped"

-I press ok, shortly after, both prompts pop up again repeatedly.

I literally have no way to get to the home menu, even using Safe Mode.

My main priority is to at least recover my SMS files. And obviously fix my phone..
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
reflash your rom, or flash another rom. if using stock, you can reflash the factory img or find a rooted stock rom. anyways, you DO want to update to 444, as many bugs have been fixed from 442 to 444. if yoy dont want to lose any data, grab a stock rooted rom and flash it dirty, as in dont wipe a single thing. and your phone can not update itself, only you can let it update. and with you using franco kernel, it can not flash an ota, you would have to do it manually.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NotReallyKnown:
Do you mind linking me a good thread on how to dirty flash a rom? I've been looking all over and i'm getting a lot of results that simply don't work.

Edit:

Nevermind, found out how to use adb. Can you at least tell me where the SMS files are stored? I used Textra.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
well, theres no such thing. as most everyone will tell you the proper way is to clean flash, you wont find a dirty flashing thread. regardless, im known for my dirty flashing of everything. generally, what you do to dirty flash is make a backup in recovery first, then just flash what you need to flash, without wiping anything. the thing about dirty flashing is that you dont lose any data(while clean flashing you do).

where the sms files are stored, i have no idea. have you checked if your sms app created a file?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NotReallyKnown:
So what I should do is push the rooted stock rom somewhere into my phone and use TWRP to install it straight?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
right. adb push it to your phone, then flash it in twrp. if the dirty flash doesnt work out(chances are that it will) then you would have to wipe data(factory reset) and reflash.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NotReallyKnown:
You are a f**king god. It worked perfectly! Thank you so much!

Why isn't Dirty Flashing suggested by most?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
because most follow older "proper" ways to flash software. and the proper way to flash, and to make sure all is working as should, is to clean flash. dirty flashing can cause issues, but its issues that are usually fixable. the problem is that most dont know that, or how to fix. 99.99% of issues caused by dirty flashing are caused by corrupt or incompatible data. where a data clearing for that particular app will usually fix. anyways, roms based on the same sourcw, and not far from what you are running, you can dirty flash. roms that have a different base than what you are running, you should factory reset first.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wangdaning:
Dirty flashing has the potential of causing conflicts and issues. Of course it is not so bad if you back up your data. One problem though, is you might use your phone for a few weeks before the issues show up, then suddenly you are unable to backup data. So you lost a week or two of stuff.

By the way, I often dirty flash when I run into issues. After that though, it is a good idea to back everything up, wipe, and reflash everything. Limits potential issues arising and also causes of said issues.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
issues from dirty flashing do not appear weeks later, dirty flashing issues show up right away. all dirty flashing issues are caused by data, whether corrupt or incompatible. other issues are blamed on dirty flashes, but arent the real cause. issues like app fc's are the most common, and very fixable. the only issues that arent fixable are when you dirtt flash two completely different roms that are based on different sources, or different android versions. i have dirty flashed every single thing ive flashed onto my n5, since december, no issues. the only issue i had dirty flashing my n5 was dirty flashing L over rastakat. and the issue was minor. everything worked great except the status bar didnt go down all the way. why did it mess uo? because of incompatible data from rastakat with the new status bar code in L.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wangdaning:
You are correct Simms, but it must be noted that you dirty flash the same version, for dirty flash to work. If just updating a rom it is usually fine, but if they have made a major change then it is not.

Have no tales to tell of my N5, but my Samcrap S3 (cracked the screen and she died, then I bought this bad boy :D ) had issues that would appear later. Maybe due to the dirty flash. Who knows, that is why I mentioned a clean flash rules that out.

Anyway, backing up everything leads to a carefree life!

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majmoz:
First, remove your imei and serialno from the getvar all!

You can try to run the RUU for your phone. You can get it from here. It should be PN07IMG_M7C_DUG_K44_SENSE60_MR_HTCCN_CHS_CU_5.15.1 402.3_Radio_1237.28.34.0106_release_373024_signed_ 2.zip - 1.10 GB. Please check the MD5 after you download it. You will have to relock your bootloader to run the RUU since you are S-ON. This will put you back to stock then you can decide where you want to go from there.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tolep Coy:

how to remove imei and serialno sir? or just run RUU?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majmoz:
In your first post, you posted your fastboot getvar all. In the getvar all it list your imei and serialno, you do not want those to get out to the internet where people can spoof your phone. Running the RUU has no bearing on your first post, so you can run it at anytime.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majmoz:
I got the file from [Collection] HTC Dual Sim 802d, 802t, 802w - Official RUU, OTA and CWM and for your phone there are two KK RUU but only one that matches your MID, CID and OS. I could not find a firmware package for your phone. Can you find another computer to try the RUU on or do you have a Linux computer to try? This post will explain how to put Linux on a USB stick, that way you can boot from the usb stick and keep your window files intact. While in Linux put sudo in front of the fastboot commands.

Since, you are presently able to get to the bootloader you could try to install CWM recovery. If that works, then try a custom rom for your phone version but do not install Rom Cleaner. :fingers-crossed:

---------- Post added at 05:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:43 PM ----------

I had another thought. Go to the [Collection] and download the earlier RUU 4.21.1402.3. Then try to install it, it should fail but it may setup something to make the RUU 5.15.1402.3 complete properly.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tolep Coy:

is there a possibility of error or something has been lost after I do this sir →

is there a possibility of error or something has been lost after I do this sir? if not, ill try your guide below..
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majmoz:
Flashing a RUU is the best way to return a phone to stock. It puts all of the pieces in the correct places. Usually to successfully flash a RUU for S-ON phones, the bootloader is locked, CID & MID must match, hboot must be the same or higher and the OS must be the same or higher. Double check to see if your bootloader is LOCKED or RELOCKED. The other thing is the PC, it may be interfering with how the RUU is operating.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] in_core:
My LG G2 (d802) started having dead screen touch in some small portion of the screen. I just installed Cloudy G3 Rom about a week ago and the problem started showing 4 days after installing the rom. Not sure if there is any connection.

Today i flashed Paranoid Android and i still see the dead touch screen problem is there.

Is it hardware issue? Or still is there any way to find out if its a software issue?

Any help appreciated

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rayan:
Yesterday I noticed the same problem with mine (D801)... :(

I think I read somewhere it's pretty common hardware defect.

I'm out of warranty so I'll have to live with it.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] in_core:
Exactly what part needs to be replaced? The display or just the touch sensor?

My one started going crazy. Now it detects press automatically as soon as I turn on the screen. Had to turn off knock-on feature or it would keep turning off and then back on the display again and again.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rayan:
I was ignoring all the posts about this issue when I browsed the forums, I thought I was safe since my G2 is more than 6 months old and also because some people mentioned it was related to some type of screen (there are two models) and I was on the "safe model", which apparently is not the case. So today I started to investigate the issue and some people end up replacing the whole screen (digitizer and LCD) which I think I'll do too.

Replacing just the touchscreen seems like the cheapest option since the part costs less than $20 bucks, but I honestly don't recommend taking that path since it's really hard to separate the LCD screen from the touchscreen.

So yeah, the whole screen assembly runs for like $70 plus bucks. :mad:
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wulsic:
Better waste 50 bucks more then when you need to use the liquid and special devices to stick the digitizer to the lcd, it isn't for people who have never done it before. Its especially harder on newer smartphones then from 2010. Thats also the reason why the nexus 5 digitizer isnt sold seperately since replacing it would be much easier and you wouldnt risk your display when replacing the digitizer.

For that 70 bucks you maybe also have the tools included to open the phone and there are many videos which you should follow carefully to replace it well. I would rather pay 70 bucks then going to some repair shop or service center which replaces it for 130 bucks and above. [MENTION=2103581]in_core[/MENTION] If you have warranty use it since dead touch isnt your fault and as I read its common so LG have maybe screwed up it somewhere or the rom caused it :/ but i don't really think the g3 rom caused it since people even get that problem who are fully on stock without root.

[Asus Transformer TF700] royredman:
I was just curious if any developers (aside from SDBags) was developing for the Tf701 also?

I have heard that the Tf701 tablet is awesome, but not alot developer support is going on with it, specifically with AOSP Roms, as these roms could really make this tablet extremely fast. I'm sure may tf701 users would appreciate the approach and there may be donations related to your work. This is something I hope could happen, since the more developers available for the tablet, the better for its overall lifespan. Thanks again for all your guys help and support with the TF700 and any other tablets you have all worked on!!
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Ahem. Did you check the Development and Original Development sections for the TF701???

There's an unofficial AOKP rom and pershoot is developing the CM11. Plus sbdags with CROMBi-KK, CROMi-X and a stock rooted rom. That's it.

Plenty for me....
[Asus Transformer TF700] royredman:
I have the tf300t right now, and maybe because developing Custom Roms was a bigger thing back then, there were alot more developers interested in creating Roms. I was just curious if any developers from the tf700 tablet section was interested in also developing for the tf701. I already said in my first post, aside from sdbags. I know he does alot of hard work on his roms and he has always been a supporter since I first unlocked my tf300t. I was just curious about if there were any developers interested, because after Asus's Stock OTA's are over, there will be no way to get any more recent software updates, aside from the developers wonderful help.

My tf300t was supposed to be stuck on Jellybean to Asus's logic, and because there were many talented developers (like sdbags), I am running the latest version of kitkat on my tf300t. I was just curious as to if anyone else was interested, and I'm sure it would be helpful to the developers at the tf701 section to have some more help so there is a smaller workload with every developer.

I am not putting down or bashing any developers that are working on tf701 roms. I am happy that there are developers even working on this tablet, but I was just curious if any others were interested in working on it or helping out any of the current developers on that tablet.

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MotoXoom:
I have a problem after trying out a magnetic charging USB Cable but my wife accidentally connecting it the wrong way :crying:

My phone turned instantly dead with red LED coming on. I put it on wall charger and was able to restart after 4 hours of charging.

After disconnecting the phone from charger the phone went into a bootloop showing Sony Logo and black screen. Forced shutdown and was able to power on phone.

Now this happens:

My phone keeps waking the screen when it is being charged (the screen timeouts and turns off before being turned back on again after a few seconds, showing the lock screen), even after i switch back to the standard USB charging cable (charging directly to the microusb port). I have checked developer options and keep screen awake when charging is not ticked so that's not the problem. Turning off screen using power button brings up lockscreen.

Additionally, my phone is not able to be switched off. When i switch off, it will enter into a sort of bootloop where the phone will spontaneously turn itself on showing 'Sony' screen > black screen and it repeats this cycle. The phone can however be turned back on during this bootloop if i press and hold the power button while the screen is black.

I have initiated a software repair with PC Companion and also tried flashing a FTF with flashtool both of which still don't fix above behaviour.

Any ideas on this???

Phone is still under warranty so no problem but wanted to hear your opinions first.
