[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silently:
After an unfortunate restart yesterday from a misbehaving app, my phone has decided that the whole of the userdata partition is going to be read-only. At the very least, it's stopping me, fastboot, adb, and even the home launcher (when it boots) from running anything. Here's a video of the crash: http://youtu.be/8orBg5ivxsQ?t=1m3s

Now I've spent hours trawling through the various threads, and the ones that has got me closest to anything useful has been this one:

XDA Nexus 5 - [HOWTO][GUIDE] Repairing corrupted /data partition

Now the commands work well, and I have a list of the Moto G (16gb version) superblocks here:

/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system on /system type ext4 (rw,seclabel,relatime,data=ordered)

/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata on /data type f2fs (rw,seclabel,relatime,background_gc=on,discard,user_xattr,inline_xattr,acl,errors=recover,active_logs=6)

/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/cache on /cache type ext4 (rw,seclabel,relatime,noauto_da_alloc,data=writeback)

/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fsg on /fsg type ext4 (rw,seclabel,nodev,noatime,nodiratime)

/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/modem on /firmware type ext4 (rw,seclabel,nodev,noatime,nodiratime,data=ordered)

/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/persist on /persist type ext4 (rw,seclabel,nodev,noatime,nodiratime,data=ordered)​

Running e2fsk works on all but the userdata superblock, which is the one I cannot write to. It fails with the message

The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2 filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock: e2fsck -b 8193 <device>​

Clearly I can't e2fsck the f2fs partition (and I have no fsck), does anyone have any suggestions?

Enter Bootloader screen (power on with vol down held)

Option (1) - Try flashing the gpt.bin included in the Motorola Firmware Image. Fastboot command:

fastboot flash partition gpt.bin​

Option (2) - Flash the entire firmware image by following this tutorial:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2542219​

NB. fastboot erase userdata - will wipe all photos, music etc. Linux and some versions of windows will give you access to ADB in Custom Recovery. From there you can backup photos / internal storage by running the command: adb pull /sdcard/ C:/motog/

Tell me what model you have and I can link you to the Motorola Firmware Image.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silently:
Thanks.

Running Option (1) gives me the messages "(bootloader) Preflash verification failed" and "FAILED (remote failure)" in cmd, and the error version downgraded for primary_gpt on the phone screen. I have also attempted Option 2, but again that apparently has no effect. Even flashing a different recovery image (CWM, TWRP, Stock) does not change anything.

Even something simple like running a nandroid backup command fails through recovery- hence me thinking that the partition has gone read-only.

The model is a 16gb UK XT1032.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost101:
You need to use a 4.4.4 firmware image. See the FAQ regarding 'Preflash verification failed.'

I downloaded the firmware file (you're correct, I was probably previously using a 4.3 image) and tried to flash it using both fastboot and mfastboot.

Despite both methods giving no errors, it has absolutely no effect on the recovery, or once the phone boots (still the same wallpaper that I can see through the lockscreen before I unlock it and everything crashes).

Here's a video of it crashing, just for reference (note that xposed is clearly installed, but flashing the 'remove xposed' zip also does nothing): http://youtu.be/8orBg5ivxsQ
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silently:
I have tried both actually. Here's the log from using mfastboot but it's the same for both. No errors reported in cmd or on the phone, but it doesn't make any actual changes to anything. Bizarre.

Try all three versions of fastboot in this zip: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23578570567719065

NB. Are system.img_sparsechunk.0 / .1 / .2 the actual file-names? Some firmware images include a forth sparsechunk.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silently:
I have not knowingly run fastboot erase all (I didn't know that was a command actually, perhaps for the best).

I can confirm that the commands I am running are exactly as you suggest, and with all the correct files. I have written three different .bat files not that I can run from from the command line, using fastboot, mfastboot and fastboot-moto-windows.

No luck unfortunately, despite the positive messages from cmd and the bootloader.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost101:
Have you tried converting 'userdata' to ext4 and back to f2fs in custom recovery?

TWRP > Wipe > Advanced > Repair > select 'data' - then choose repair

Afterwards reflash sparsechunks if necessary.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silently:
I'm using Philz custom recovery, but I have found a similar option.

I have tried turning on the f2fs <-> ext4 option in Custom Recovery Options and run it on /data and /data/media.

Selecting etx4 the first time, no effect.

Selecting f2fs the second time, no effect.

Well that's a damn good point. I assume it is something to do with the block structure of the underlying file system then, and it is something there which is preventing disk writes.

Pissed, haven't even received my 32GB, black leather, red trim phone yet, and I can get it $50 cheaper now. My wife has an upgrade available too, can I buy a new one and return the phone to Verizon w/in 14 days?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwerty12601:
Why not try asking Motorola for a credit. For the inconvenience of still waiting for your phone and since they've discounted the price. Pick up a turbo charger and a case or something.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toddbecker:
Working on that now, though I really only want to get the $50 discount. Only headache is related to the upgrades. The Moto maker process did take my upgrade, so I spoke to Verizion, aside from having to play some upgrade ping pong with the upgrade on my wife's line, there shouldn't be a problem placing a second order and getting the upgrade back when Motorola cancels my first order. If I didn't have another upgrade available, this would be a much bigger deal.

I only placed the original order on 10/8, which is one reason why I am miffed about the discount. I realize that Moto can't always just apply sale pricing to previous purchases. I'm actually pleasantly surprised that they are willing to take the phone back w/ no penalty (15 day buyers remorse program, includes return shipping via FedEx). The upgrade ping pong is a minor annoyance and worth the $50 to me. It would certainly be nice if they could just cancel the first order... on hold regarding that right now. Cancelling the order wasn't possible.

Overall, both Moto and Verizon customer support were very helpful, and I'll be able to get my discounted 32GB, black leather, red trim Moto X 3 days later than the original.

Hey guys!

One more question: Is it possible to root my Xperia Go without unlocking the bootloader? So I could do root without losing warranty, is not it?

And if it fails to root without unlocking the bootloader, there is possibility of transferring the Xperia Home 7.0.A.0.14 for my Xperia Go without root?

Hi

Sorry if this subject was discussed but I searched for it and didn't find anything resembling it.

1) I have a non-root G2 mini and when i slide the notification bar i have brightness + volume sliders that i want to remove.

Is there any way to remove them without root ?

2) When playing certain games , the navigation bar remains on the display with dots instead of icons

Is there any way to remove it without root ?

Are these things possible with root ?

Thank you ! :o

Not Sure What Happend

I just tried the tool, pulled my apk and jar files with xUltimate software and also pulling my framework files.

Issue 1;

If you leave the source folder empty but copying framework files to framework folder, the launcher says source folder is empty and nothing happens. So does it mean you need to move framework files to source folder?

Issue 2;

If you copy both group of files in their intended folder, the only files get deodexed (with plenty of errors) are the ones in source folder and files in framework folder remain intact (so that means your framework is not deodexed).

So can you please help me? I'm not gonna send that long log file on a post to disturb others and the reason I wanted to test this one was that xUltimate got plenty of problems with framework files.

I just spent 20min waiting outside a T-Mobile store before it opened, the doors finally opened, I tell the rep I would like to buy a Note 4 and to my shock she said "we didn't get any". I called every other store in a 30mi radius and NOBODY has them. So make sure you call before you waste your time driving to the store.

This is all very ironic since I decided not to preorder so I could be one of the first people to get one on launch day :eek: I am pretty ticked so I filed a formal complaint, and encourage others to do the same (being polite of course). Stores are suppose to get shipments days in advance of a major product launch.

Its true. I live in NW Houston and working in SE Houston/Pasadena area so I called a lot of stores near home and work and about half of them said that Note 4 is sold out (calling within 9am-930am) and the rest said they are still waiting for the shipment and some said they only do store orders and directly shipping it to my home address. One store told me to hurry up in the afternoon because they are only getting 4 units. WTF?

I've never gone to a non corporate store to get a phone. I know there are some things 3rd party stores can't do.
