If you have tried another rom then it is hardware related...Trying another battery would be my first choice then if it still happens service repair ;)

I tryed another battery but its not a battery issue. It's so wierd. And now i'm having troubles with clockworkmode when i try to set up a ROM, it says status 7 and status 6 and i try with cyannogenmod, stock rom and Imperium ROM.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Hi

I have a Karbonn Smart A26 phone which is running stock Android 4.1.1 out of box.

When I install Youtube app and try to run it, it says that I have to install Google Play Services.

Now, when I install Google Play Services from the play store, it throws up an error, "Incompatible with other applications(s) using the same shared user ID".

Does anyone know how to fix this issue?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] bryanblue24:
Can someone post their opinions and or advise regarding the current custom roms for Note 10.1 P605 LTE? I just want to know which one I should download. I will be coming from a stock rom. Are there any roms out there which is stable and has a great battery life. I will mainly use my tab for school purposes. Thanks!

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] davidmueller13:
I think the Hanspampel's xkat ROM is the best,but there aren't many differents.It is an Stock-based ROM and not much modified.

The two AOSP-based Custom ROMs(Cyanogenmod and AOKP) are not completly stable and bugfree,but for that very fluid.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] bryanblue24:
I see, thank you for replying :)

I'll wait for more suggestions from others:)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Seprok:
Personally I would stick to the tried and true cyanogenmod. It offers a fast stock like experience and is fluid. Try to aim for a stable build. Keep in mind that some of the same pen features might not work which is the key selling point of the note.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] bryanblue24:
Would you prefer the cm rom which is based on AOSP or a samsung based rom?

Anyway, is there's also a custom rom which is samsung based which improves the battery life?

Current on my stock 4.4.2 rom, I roughly get 9 hrs of screen time. Is that normal?

Lasty, I would like to ask if it is really an issue that our P605 doest produce a stereo sound on it's speakers?
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] trolololol:
I have Samsung Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and some time ago I installed successfully Hyperion 9 ROM. Then sometime later, an update has been released and following the instructions, I installed the update. After the reboot, the system showed that I had small space on internal memory. I tried everything to get some space but I couldn't do anything so I reinstalled Hyperion 9.1. When I installed the apps I had again the same problem. After deleting some apps, I have now 25 MB free space on internal memory but I cannot either install or update apps from Google Play Store.

Now the question. Can something be done to free space on the internal memory?

Note: Before and after the update, I had the same apps

Note: I have installed Link2SD and I have linked the apps to the external partition.

Note: Before the update, I had about 50MB free space

[Moto G General] Jdiesel87:
For anyone who has just picked up a Moto G and plans to unlock their bootloader, unlock it before updating to 4.4.4. There is currently a bug with the unlock codes on the 4.4.4 bootloader and the workaround is a hassle. The issue isn't present on 4.4.2, you can update once your bootloader is unlocked.
[Moto G General] killer23d:
The bootloader is the culprit.

Mine came with 4.4.3 and it has thus problem already.
[Moto G General] Guicrith:
Whats the issue.(you never said what it was)
[Moto G General] Espesbox:
.

The issue, when you receive the Motorola's code and enter it in the cmd get an error message. At least, that happened to me.

Hi! I bought the phone with the 4.4.2 update, and hurried him through the air to 4.4.4. And now I can not unlock the boot loader (incorrect password). Tried to go back to 4.4.2, and it does not work. When Motorola is the solution?
[Moto G General] madman:
Thanks [MENTION=5256121]Jdiesel87[/MENTION] for heads up. As you mentioned that there is a workaround , can you please point out or explain what it is , so that it will help the people who updated to 4.4.4 on first day itself..
[Moto G General] Jdiesel87:
Sure thing. In order to get the fix from Motorola you need to visit the thread on their forum at:

https://forums.motorola.com/posts/f2061da875?commentId=798955#798955

You will need to sign up for the Motorola Feedback Network under your account settings, register your device with your IMEI number, and opt in to receive emails from Motorola. Once you have done that post on the above thread alerting the moderators that you have completed those steps.

I can't comment on anything after that point as the Motorola beta program has a non-disclosure agreement but they will help you from there.

what are my chances of ROOTING , UNLOCKING BOOTLOADER AND TRYING CUSTOM ROMS? .
[Moto G General] lupilupi:
I am really not an expert in rooting / flashing and so on. I thus would like to find an easy way to benefit from the root and the 4.4.4 version.

After going through quite a lot of post on xda I find, in my opinion, the Fastboot boot on twrp the easiest solution to access root. (I don't want a custom recovery for now. I'd still have the opportunity to do so later when needed)

I am stil on 4.4.3 (XT1039) and have the OTA update available.

Is it possible to root through the fastboot boot with TWRP method and then update OTA to 4.4.4 ?

http://xdaforums.com/moto-g/general/newb-friendly-guide-to-rooting-moto-g-t2793895

Will the root still be available after that ? Or should I go to 4.4.4 immeditely and then find another way to get root access ? Which way ? (Same method as for 4.4.3 ?) Preferably without having to flash neither the recovery nor the ROM.

I guess, reading this thread that I should any way unlock the bootloader while still in 4.4.3 version.
[Moto G General] ilmanguns:
FYI, im on 4.4.4 xt 1033 2 days ago, and i made it unlock, philz cwm and cusrom for now.

And i cant guarantee what chance did you have. Cause, still dont know how the development going of unlock the bootloader on 4.4.4.

But the thinks that you had to always remember is, even there is lot of positive feedback in this case, still DWOYR. cheers mate :)
[Moto G General] meangreenie:
yes you will lose root on the ota

so as you suggested unlock bootloader first, then update to 4.4.4, and then you can root as you like by fastboot boot customrecovery.. install supersu.zip
[Moto G General] madman:
Well me to unlocked and rooted my Moto G on 4.4.4 two days ago.... Fastboot on pc actually showed that unlock failed but my phone was unlocked :D
[Moto G General] Einreb:
The same here,I have unlock boot loader after two updates from jellybeans then 4.4.3 to 4.4.4.It showed failed on fastboot,but reboot showed the boot loader unlock screen.Then I installed PhilzTouch,root and all is well.Now running custom N5X for falcon dual Sim support.No issues so far..

[Moto G General] welsonerva:
plz let us know the solution when you get one from Motorola ..
[Moto G General] metpolds:
[MENTION=5034103]jayOOMjay[/MENTION] ..... Have you tried this .....

Firstly I am presuming that you have a folder on your PC containing ADB files. Copy the two attached files to that folder (you may well have the "mfastboot" but possibly not the "philz_touch").

*** IMPORTANT *** in order to post these two file on xda I've had to re-name them by sticking ".zip" on the end of the file name, just remember to delete the .zip part.

Open a command prompt window in that folder and type the following .....

adb devices

fastboot devices (make sure your device is recognized)

mfastboot flash recovery philz_touch_6.55.0-falcon.img

Now comes important part! Navigate to the stock recovery on your phone by using the Vol Down ( - ) to scroll (DON"T use the Vol UP ( + ) that is the "Do It/Chose It" key in stock recovery) Scroll to "Recovery" and chose it to boot into Recovery Mode.

Now reboot your device - at this point you may get a message asking if you want to disable recovery flash - If you do then chose "YES".

If everything goes OK then you can reboot into philz_touch custom recovery.

I got the above from a Swedish web site.
[Moto G General] jayOOMjay:
First of all thanks fro your descriptive reply :good:

I have tried this ( mfastboot , philz 6.55 version ) .. rebooted into recovery as you mentioned.

and after rebooting what i get is the black flickering screen

and let me tell you something where you can help.

there is some issue ( i guess in bootloader ) in the XT1033s that were sold in india on august - preinstalled with 4.4.4. I couldnt find anyone with 4.4.4 preinstalled succesfully running a custom recovery also motorola stated the bootloader issue in their website : Link to motorolas forum

so I suppose someone with who is experienced in development can help.. the recoveries are giving black screen may be coz of incompatibility with ?bootloader .. so the future recovery versions will solve the problem ?

the bootloader remains the same even after OTA updates, right ? ( unless we change it via fastboot commands )

those who OTAed from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4 were successful in flashing recoveries, is that becoz they have a different(old ) bootloader ?

downgrading the bootloader might help ( bt that is risky ). doing it without complete knowledge would be foolishness

and one more thing,

to change to stock recovery .. take the recovery.img from stock firmware, flash it using the command mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img . that will revert the custom recovery back to stock, right ?

[MENTION=5034103]jayOOMjay[/MENTION] .... Thanks for your informative reply, I have to be honest and say that I'm no developer .... more of a "tinkerer" .... and as such I'm not much use to you. I do recall that I have seen comment and posts before regarding the "bug" in certain XT1033's released to the Indian market, I'm only speculating here but it seems it might be the fault of retailers rather than Motorola ..... however no matter whose fault it is that doesn't help you.

My last suggestion is to look at RootJunky (either his .com website or his xda posts) in his un-rooting section (I appreciate your problem is not "rooting" but "boot loader") however he has some useful scripts for getting back to basic stock and basic system files. I'm making the assumption that you are able to boot into "fastboot".
[Moto G General] Elrom:
The retailers have nothing to do with the bootloader bug.
[Moto G General] metpolds:
[MENTION=3429135]Elrom[/MENTION] ..... Would you care to share some factual evidence to back up your sweeping statement.
[Moto G General] Elrom:
Retailers hace no control whatsoever regarding the software or updates that come with the phones, neither control how the bootloader unlocks or the codes are obtained. Motorola rolled an update that changes how the bootloader is unlocked. That's it.
[Moto G General] MarckozZ:
Guts, just wanna know..

I have a 16gb XT1032 retail... When I bought it, instantly OTAed to 4.4.4...

When you OTA the phone to 4.4.4, automatically you will have this unlock bug? Or are there some versions of MOTO G that could not have this bug??? (IE: maybe XT1033 can't unlock but XT1032 can) Has anyone with 4.4.4 unlocked their bootloader?? :confused:
[Moto G General] Elrom:
There's no way to know if you are going to have the bug, unfortunately.

Maybe Motorola knows, but not us.
[Moto G General] Zerelth:
Glad that I unlocked it right away when it's at 4.3 =))
[Moto G General] Sailor spinach:

[Moto G General] jayOOMjay:
I think there wont be any issue in your case. I have seen many otaed to 4.4.4 were successful.

Bt i cannot guarantee anything. So make sure that u will have firmware to flash if anything goes wrong.

Guys, I hate to bother here with questions... but..

Here is my doubt.

If I unlock my bootloader right now on 4.4.4 (if there is no bug in my case), will I receive the OTA for Android L when it arrives? Are there some problems with OTAs on unlocked bootloaders?

Or you reccomend to wait until L arrives and then unlock my bootloader and root it?

I'm not planning to root right now on 4.4.4, just unlock the bootloader..... :confused:

To receive the OTA, you need the stock recovery and stock ROM, nothing else.

I have XT1033 dual Sim Indian variant. My phone came with 4.3 than I upgraded via OTA to 4.4.2 then 4.4.4. I am complete stock bootloader is locked since 1st day.

My question is:

I want to unlock my phone bootloader, so is it safe right now to unlock the bootloader? I read this thread and I am bit scared about messing up my phone :(
[Moto G General] Juste300:
UPDATE:

My phone came with 4.3 I updated to 4.4.2 and 4.4.4 I tried to unlocked the bootloader and got the following message:

Bootloader DOS message:

(bootloader) Failed to erase partition

(bootloader) General Unlock failure!

(bootloader) OEM unlock failure!

FAILED (remote failure)

finished. total time: 10.282s

But my bootloader is UNLOCKED!!! now :)

The white page bootloader warning is there when we start the phone. I installed TWRP recovery and then CM nightly build and all went fine. While installing CM I accidentally deleted the internal partition which made my phone stuck at bootloader screen. Though problem is solved now I am using CM 11 nightly build.

Motorola has posted a solution for "Incorrect password" issue with bootloader. This solution is only for users who are facing Incorrect password issue with their bootloaders.

Here is the original post from Motorola:

Hello,

If you are having a problem with the "Incorrect password", please Download the attached ZIP file and follow the instructions in the ZIP file. This only applies to the users who encounter the “password incorrect” error when trying to unlock on their Moto G after upgrading to Android KitKat 4.4.4. Please do not try these steps on a Moto G 4G LTE and second generation G.

Thanks,

Olivier

WARNING!

Do not flash this on a Moto G which has not been upgraded to 4.4.4.

If your Moto G is still on 4.4.2 and 4.4.3, then you should be able to unlock your device bootloader (if you have an eligible device) without having to apply this patch. The password incorrect issue only applies to devices which have been upgraded to 4.4.4.

If you have in the ednd of it .0001, then your device is still alive.. Just download any official ROM for your Device and connect it via cabel with PC and the go just like it is connected via Active Sync.

Active Sync is not running, but the flash would be OK and your device alive again
