ok, lets step back a bit. What history do you have of the phone, I mean did you just get it , had it for a while.....just asking to determine what it is running jelly bean or KK kitkat, coz you are having prob flashing JB, and your phone may have Kitkat on it. See if this utility can read data off your phone

http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f60...3-2014-imei-repair-rooting-tool-more-1780568/

Just a matter of download and plugging your phone. I will check on other possibilities.

This looks promising;check on # 28, use same xml, verify version of ROM

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2177253&page=3

Check post 57 as well if 28 doesnt take care of it. 89 seems as a fix as well. You ve got options...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mspeter:
the phone was my work phone and I had it since new. I never did anything to it so it was always completely stock until one day it stopped working and errored to apfastboot. I don't recall what happened to cause that but it wasn't anything I did or tried to do because it was a work phone and i wasn't in to tweaking droids. since then i have tried all of the options that come up in the boot mode selection menu without success. when i select the recovery option i get the dead droid with a red triangle. at one time i had a menu (don't recall what i did to pull up that menu) come up that said something like wipe cache and format or something. i don't remember but i ran that as well.

i hope that helps and gives you a clue. meanwhile i will try the new things you have suggested and let you know what happens. thanks.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] hbenz2008:
Sounds good, give it a shot. Am very hopeful about bringing it back to life. Could be an update that got it all screwed out, pardon my French.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mspeter:
sorry had something i had to deal with. first step i loaded the mtk tool and ran it but it did not recognize it. all fields remained blank.

#28 i matched my xml file to the one posted but was not able to get past an error message that said it was not correct. I have to try it again only this time i will use it exactly and not edit it to try to match my versions etc.

#57 i apologize but i was not able to figure out how to run the utility from #57. when i run it a black dialog box wtih white text flashes up for less than a second and then closes. i assume i need to run it as a command line instruction but don't know how or from where.

I did not get to #89 and I have to go to work now so i will take my laptop and check back around 4pm arizona time.

thank again.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] hbenz2008:
It's OK, and thanks for a good reporting . I will check on 57 tomorrow. Good luck with the upcoming tries. I am on a different time zone:)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mspeter:
this is odd. i switched laptops and have been trying to go back to the beginning and rerun all the things you've had me try. I believe i am up to the latest which was to try the mtktool which i did and all fields are still blank. i have not tried the others yet (#28, #57 etc.) but i noticed now that on a couple occasions when i plug in the phone a box pops up that it is trying to find the drivers "fastboot vanquish s". i let it search and it doesnt' find them unfortnuately. not sure if this is helpful or not.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] hbenz2008:
laptop is just looking for drivers, you can go ahead and install motorola us drivers 2.4.5 that will take care of that and go ahead with your troubleshooting. See if those steps help you, otherwise next I believe is to flash KK rom on it. You have downloaded it earlier, unless it is on the other laptop.

in process now running rsdlite
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mspeter:
should i start with KK or JB?

also device is not being seen by rsdlite and i downloaded 2.4.5 drivers. it dongs when i plug in or out but not seen in rsdlite
[Motorola Droid RAZR] hbenz2008:
Make sure your phone is on ap fastboot, reboot after installing drivers. CHECK under device mgr, and verify you have android listed there when you plug your device. Use another port.

Using win7?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mspeter:
phone is in apfastboot for sure

dont recall booting after reloading drivers so will do that next just to be sure so will be back in about 5

windows is vista - was using 8 and it was a major pain in the ass so i had to get off that laptop
[Motorola Droid RAZR] hbenz2008:
Ok, hopefully your phone have enough juice, that's critical. Don't want to run out of it in the middle of a flash ?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mspeter:
ok #27 does not work even with exact txt input into xml file. says wrong format

2. Get this image file: http://sbfdownload.droid-developers....-1_CFC.xml.zip
[Motorola Droid RAZR] hbenz2008:
Can't see the zip yet. Try and flash kk ROM with rsd just straight up
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mspeter:
Is that 4.4 I assume?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] hbenz2008:
4.4.2, you have downloaded it already. Just gotta extract to a folder in your desktop. Point rsd to the xml file

[Ubuntu Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UltimaXtreme:
The Ubuntu Touch OS is a pretty big topic as of late, and I'm really hyped to see it come along... but I have to say, I'm shocked by the lack of docks for a lot of devices lately.

Why do I say this? Well, I suppose it's less relevant to UbTouch, but it's pretty important and worth mentioning. More and more, these modern devices are coming out, offering crazy specs like Quad-HD displays and quad-core processors, but it's given a hardcore hardware limitation, usually defined by the USB port with the MHL/OTG nature. I don't know enough docks where a phone does it, but I know Samsung has that on lock. You look at their products, their USB port is designed well, able to plug into a dock that has an HDMI port, a micro-USB cable for syncing/charging/powering the dock, and a USB host port, for keyboards, mice, etc.

Samsung's devices, from a functional standpoint, seem perfect for UbTouch's offering of the convergence with the desktop functionality, but their specs don't fit it. The specs are catered to a simpler crowd, as Samsung's done for a while. The company's that DO offer the specs for it have skimped on things, or at least, they've not bothered to mention that they can do simultaneous display output with USB host functionality, because we haven't seen docks that have such things.

A few years ago, backing to the HTC Evo 3D and 4G LTE, that device offered a dock, or KiDiGi at least, with an HDMI output and a microUSB for powering the dock and charging. Custom ROMs make it possible to use USB host, amazingly, but I need to wonder where we are that we aren't seeing docks more.

I believe I can guess the answer: Miracast. That's right. The screen casting feature. They don't look to HDMI and docks with it because of the fact that, with a small plug-and-forget dongle or the like, you can just wirelessly cast your screen. You don't need a keyboard and mouse, no bluetooth and junk. You sync it, you send it, you use it, and that's that.

Because of this, and the fact that only Canonical, and the companies behind them, believe in this convergence right now, I can't say it's a surprise that no one's trying to bring on this expanded environment through their phones, with a dock that, having it set up, allows that convergence.

Maybe I'm missing something. Who's got a device and dock, and who's experimented with Ubuntu Touch, assuming it was ever part of the choice for your device? And is it a Samsung?
[Ubuntu Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikwen:
I've been using Ubuntu on my Nexus 4 since February. While you are right that there currently aren't too many devices which have pins for a dock, it would not bring any benefits to the Ubuntu Touch experience if there were, as Ubuntu hasn't reached convergence yet. Moreover, the work on Unity 8 for the desktop hasn't even started yet (besides their initial creation of a version of Ubuntu which runs Unity 8 and Mir but looks like the phone/tablet version). The work to create a desktop UI for Unity 8 will start after the release of 14.10. Let's see when we will get full convergence.

(What is, however, already converged are apps. You can already install the Ubuntu core apps on your Ubuntu desktop.)

To upgrade you can follow the instructions according to the link below:

These employees on FB are instructed to say that by LG. Everytime I read a different prediction: july, august, september, 2nd semester and so on. The truh is that they know jack sh*t and people should not believe that, it's actually funny to see those naive people getting excited with those responses. Just install an E975 ROM because we'll die waiting for an Android update. The truth is that only Google and some Motorola phones (Nexus, Moto G/X) are almost guaranteed to receive an Android update.
[LG Optimus G (International)] Galileo:
I emailed them :V but I guess it isn't that much different, did you flash a Kdz? If so which one? I think I'll just go and do the same. Some dude reported losing his imei tho, I have my efs backup but it is still kind of scary when it comes to a kdz file since this is my only phone.
[LG Optimus G (International)] prog19:
I'm one step away from flashing a SFR kdz, because I think modem will work just out of the box, and a did find any kdz from France or Germany that is not from a carrier. But I'm afraid that flashing a kdz from a carrier will sim lock my GF phone.

I'm a Brazilian without English Course, sorry and be comprehensive :)
[LG Optimus G (International)] ksio89:
I'm on stock ROM. The safest and most stable stock ROM to flash seems to be KK 4.4.2 EUR V20A. I didn't try to install it again because I read some reports that attempting to go back to stock Jelly Bean ROM after flashing this KK ROM fuc*ed the internal memory (can't mount internal SD card), which the only solution is to replace the board. I had my phone board replaced last week because I followed a tutorial which simply didn't work, and I simply don't trust almost any tutorial anymore. Installing custom ROMs on this phone is gambling; even if you're 110% sure you follow the tutorial instructions verbatim, there is a high chances of you'll ending up with a brick only fixed by board replacement.

About losing IMEI, you must indeed have EFS partitions and modem backup (not only on the phone but on PC as well), otherwise it's pretty much impossible to restore the phone's IMEI or get network signal.
[LG Optimus G (International)] guidoido004:
Don't blame tutorials for you bricking your phone, instead search and learn everything possible related to that before choosing about do it or not. That's why I flashed only a kitkat custom rom nothing but boot.img and system, all safe with cyanogennod 11 times and efs backups. Tho i don't want to leave stock kk, at least not for other kk. The is just an opinion, if someone disagrees, or didn't like. Well. We all been there so we know why it happened, making this a good thing to print and paste on your head till you understand.
