[General Questions and Answers] Stuart Little:
Do you did what i said to you?

When you did that you will only have to reboot and it should work ;)
[General Questions and Answers] TheHelplessGuy:
It didn't work, now I have this error :

E:failed to mount /efs (Invalid argument)

Applied the CSC-code : Unknow

Succefuly applied multi-CSC.
[General Questions and Answers] C.Beery:
seems like you messed up really good there, especially cause you deleted the backup.

Edit: instead of trying what I typed below, please go to Youtube and type in "E: failed to mount /efs (invalid argument)". The first video that came up for me was "E: failed to mount /efs (invalid argument) Galaxy S3" and had good instructions for how to fix this error on a different phone. I would imagine the steps should be the same on yours, just with a different bootloader file that you should be able to find with a little searching.

What I would try is to download the latest full stock firmware for your phone (I think it says you have a Galaxy Tab 2 7.0? Try SamMobile's firmware section.) and then go into Philz (which you might wanna update, cause I'm pretty sure you're 2.0 version numbers behind which can bring a lot of fixes) and make a backup so you can at least go back to this screwed up state if you screw up anything more. Then, wipe everything that can be wiped. Then I would install that stock firmware just like a custom rom and pray to Digital Jesus.

You might wanna get some more professional advice considering I've only had my android phone for like 2 months so I'm not exactly a tech guru. Don't blame it on me if you try this and something goes wrong- it shouldn't but that's why you made the backup
[General Questions and Answers] vtaufner:
You should try flashing the stock rom with Odin or some software like that.

I had a similar problem when flashing CM9 on a LG e400 and I fixed it by flashing with KDZ (which is for LG devices only).

Give a try flashing with Odin... It should work.

What were you trying to flash? What recovery are you using? What android version is your stock?
[General Questions and Answers] TheHelplessGuy:
Man you are a beast , everything is fine thanks to you .You save my pocket .

Now I have this yellow writings on my home screen , it is there a way to fix this .
[General Questions and Answers] C.Beery:
Haha thanks. I would have provided a link, but they don't let you post links unless you have a high enough post count. Next time you have a problem, do what I did: type the first line of the error into Google or Youtube and search for 4 or 5 minutes before you ask for help.

In the mean time, what do these yellow writings look like? Can you take a picture or screenshot and post it here?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kybby:
I've done my homework but haven't found how others fix this issue.

Sucessfully rooted the Videotron LG G2 D801

.

The mistake: Autorec my LG G2 D801 with autorec D801 version unaware that Canadian D801 must be autorec'd by autorec D803 version.

Status of phone: Boots shows LG logo and goes immediately to black screen 'Fastboot mode started'.

Tried: Download mode attempts bring up the download mode logo for a sec and immediately the phone goes back to Fastboot mode started screen.

User rickthewood2 reported he had the same issue and was provided a fix. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2723687.

I tracked him on a french forum where he reported that XDA guy compiled a file for him that unbricked this issue as he was having a hard time with entering commands. He also specified that the trick was to repair his download mode with a laf.img file ... once download mode was repaired he went back to stock rom. This is the link of his post made in french http://www.phonandroid.com/forum/ecran-noir-apres-autorec-t90109.html

Please assist.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxZombiePikachu:
that is because the download mode partition is broken because it is the wrong model; if you download the correct model of autorec you can use WinRAR/7zip to get the laf.img from the assets folder and then flash it using adb; I know the process to flash the images through fastboot as long as your device is recognized by your pc I can help
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kybby:
a new hope

Very good files Extracted I see the laf I need to use. So are you saying if pc sees the device I can flash using fastboot but if it doesn't I will have to flash via ADB... right? I'm such a newbie.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxZombiePikachu:
it's all done using adb; fastboot is the mood you are in and with adb is how we look for device and send the commands

after going into your adb folder(android sdk>platform-tools or ioroot folder) you make sure to copy the laf image into it and then after opening cmd window and cd into the adb folder you use the adb devices command if after starting daemon it show your device in fastboot mode then you do the following:

fastboot erase laf

fastboot flash laf laf.img

actually you can flash all the partitions using fastboot(the images inside assets folder) and then doing a simple reboot should boot your device but if it doesn't then you just have to boot into download mode:

fastboot erase aboot

fastboot flash aboot aboot.img

fastboot erase boot

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot erase laf

fastboot flash laf laf.img

fastboot erase recovery

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

with either method when done flashing correct files use:

fastboot reboot

and your device will reboot; make sure that you flash all correct files before rebooting and then if device boots normally you will have custom recovery and be back on the stock rom if by any chance it doesn't boot then you can just boot into download mode(hold volume up while plugging in usb cable to phone/pc) and then just kdz/tot back to stock

Best of Luck :fingers-crossed:
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kybby:
Awesome Just Awesome!!

Dude, I read those instructions from all over the net but I guess I needed this divine intervention. You have no idea how greatful I am for your assistance. Current situation: Download mode is back and LGmobile support tool is doing its download thing for stock rom.

I have to add that I was receiving an error message from CMD prompt for command:

fastboot flash laf.img

I replaced that by:

fastboot flash laf laf.img

and was abble to finish the rest.

Good safe rooting to all the rooters!

Kybby

PS: too bad I can only thank you once on this one...
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxZombiePikachu:
Glad it all worked out and thanks for pointing that out for some reason I always forget that fastboot needs the partition name before the image name (trust me it isn't first time I make the mistake but we ain't perfect)

If you decide to go at it again make sure to use correct version of autorec and enjoy your device :high-five:

Are you kidding me?!?!

You're not serious right? Tell me you're joking!

With ppl like you around I'm no longer worried. This was a learning experience.

Guess what.... G2 now rooted with correct autorec version... TWRP is enabled and BusyBox is in da house too. Next step... create a backup after deleting all these spying resources hungry LG default apps and then... ENABLE 4K video capture!

Amigo, I told you You just made this dude's week.

By the way if you think I forgot something importand pls advise. I read somewhere it was a good thing to save efs or something.

Yea backing up efs is important since that is where your imei is and if something happens to it you can restore it using efs backup, am not near pc right now to link the guide will update when home

Hi I've been studying this thread because I have the same problem--used the wrong version of autorec and now my Verizon LG G2 is stuck in fastboot. I've downloaded the correct version of autorec but I do not understand how to open the apk to access the assets file. I right click but get no option to open or extract. Can anyone help me, or direct me to a link where the laf.img files are stored? Thanks!

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davidargent0628:
Thanks, but I took it to a shop that borked it completely. Just sold it on the Bay. Picked up a Moto X off Craig's...lol...oh well, the Moto is pretty cool and since it's running 4.4.4 I can't do anything to it until someone figures out how to unlock the bootloader...probably for the best...
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frankhell:
Hi,

do you have an idea wich autorec is nessesary for a G2 shipped from HongKong. Ic guess I have the same issue like you. But on the case I have a D802 lable. So I thought it must be the one for a D802. May I'm wrong?

Now I tried a D800 one and it worked as I could start my phones download mode. After starting it I installed different roms but all had strange behavior like wrong touch an just flipping arround after touching. There is also no chance to connect to the network. Later I saw that my G2 32GB only shows 10GB of internal storage when its connected to pc. Any idea what I did wrong?

I would be very thankfull for help!!!!

Thanks

I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if

A lot.

Introduction

A new Android ROM called The Schism. The Schism is an Android ROM that is a bit different than others. The Schism strives to bridge the gap between Android OS and Google Apps. Along with our ROM being inspired by Google Apps UI, we are also a ROM based off Mahdi-Rom so we have a load of great and useful features like Lockscreen Notifications (AOSPAL), Active Display (CHAOS), Heads UP (CM), SlimPIE (SLIM) and much more!

What this Project will be

Well I have been asked to maintain the l900 for schism. So yall will get an official version and a jlm version (modified and extras added). The official version will be the rom as it comes compiled from source. The jlm version will have added things (apps and tweaks) to make it a little more bloated (just call me samsung!! LOL!!). I will have gapps added into the jlm version and possible the plasma kernel along with synapse. I am also going to add in a preconfigured profile for synapse to aid in battery life for those who dont want to mess with the settings themselves.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Schism JLM Version

The main link for the Schism rom is a base rom as it is compiled from source. While this makes a nice small rom we can add to it sucks sometimes to download all the extra stuff and hope it works together. So I made up this JLM version to give a you a little bloated experience. I have added in the latest PA stock gapps with all the goodies. Added in many extras to hopefully make it a better daily rom with less effort to setup.

Downloading now.

Any kernels to use with this?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sothus:
4g/Wifi/Gps working on this Rom.

Going through all the settings everything there seems to work well for the most part. Got a few FC's but ofcourse JL says he is getting a JLM build put together so will wait for that one before I go deep into the settings. But as it sits right now this is useable as a daily driver imo.

And yes those of you who are wondering... Hotspot does work as well.

Only real issue i have with this rom is while yes the 4g data does work it is slow compared to other Roms i've been on.

For example on this Rom i was getting 3-4Mbps. While on 3.2+ or Stock NE2 4.4.2 by Chaz I normally run between 12-18Mbps in my house and higher outside.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Which gapps did you use? Notice any issues hangouts or keyboard?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sothus:
I used the PA Gapps 4.4.4 that you linked. And had no issues with the Keyboard at all. Now the hangouts i couldn't tell ya if there are issues as i never log into hangouts. Can't stand that app lol. I can check it for you later today. As of right now I'm back on the Classic Stock 4.4.2 as I need the faster data speeds atm.

Well I am testing the JLM version now. It has build.prop tweak, init.d tweaks, plasma 2.53 kernel and synapse app, along with a full gapps (gallery, camera, calendar, chrome) and still has all the stock apps also. Most of the gapps have been moved to /data/app so you can remove what you dont want. I also include a few extra apps in /data/app. I will be uploading and posting a build log shortly.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Hey man good to see you here. Long time since the of EVO days or were you on the 3d?

Also if you flashed jlm version you need to move /data/app/phonesky.apk to /system/priv-app. Will update the download links tomorrow with a new zip.

Edit: [MENTION=5082997]hondafreak513[/MENTION]. You don't have to root.. Just Odin recovery (philz 6.07.9 recommended) with reboot unchecked. Once complete remove cable and battery. Press and hold vol+, home, power while inserting battery. Once it boots do custom backup to external sdcard select everything but /data/media and /efs. Once complete do custom backup again only select /efs this time. Now wipe everything and install custom ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] malvarez92:
I had the same issue at the begging when flashing the JLM version. I fixed it by installing the newest PA Gapps linked on the OP. Now the issue I have is a never ending loop of FC on com.android.systemui. I will re-flash and post back results. Any body else have this issue?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sothus:
Ok got it flashed everything went smooth till i tried to access the play store, but it just FC's I tried flashing the PA 4.4.4 Gapps and the Slim 4.4 Gapps both resulting in the same issues.

Also on a side note for some weird reason my phone screen all shaded red after a few attempts to access the Play store and couldn't get it to go away. Not sure what the heck that was, I've never had my phone do that before lol.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
I see yall read through the tread lol! On post 27 I told yall about this issue. To fix playstore move /data/app/phonesky.apk to /system/priv-app and reboot.

Red screen is plasma's night mode which is enabled/disabled by pressing home 3 times rapidly.

Edit: OP updated with current issues and fixes... Also uploading JLM 1.1 to address the play store issue
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] VikingoRMCF:
First released version, besides the 4G issue, I'm not experiencing any other issues mentioned.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Not sure what is the issue with 4g and since I am on cricket I cant check myself. Now as far as the problems others are having that is on the JLM version so you wont see them.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] malvarez92:
My bad boss. Didn't read lol. Also the latest G+ update is what is making the rom FC, pretty much making it unusable. I had to re-flash a few times to figure out it was that app. Cannot provide catlogs as the phone remains unusable once the FCs start.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
I was just being funny no offence. I did see something on one of the other 4.4.4 threads stating G+ updates causing issues. I always turn off automatic updating and only update if there is a problem with the current version.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] latingonzo86:
Is 4g an issue for everyone, or just a few people?
