[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kiminoir:
I've had the same problem as well. Sent it to Sony for repair. They said it had something to do with the software. Asked for more information, they said an app was causing it (I use normal applications: FB, Line, reddit, skype, dropbox). Sony said they "repaired" my phone by erasing all my data and re-installed the firmware. Happened AGAIN TODAY. BTW it shows up as a "system restart" in the diagnostics menu. Is this the same for everyone experiencing this? Btw i used the pc companion to repair my phone as you have mentioned before sending it to Sony; that DIDN'T work either
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianjd:
I'm seeing this maybe once every 1-2 days, after reading the program list above I'm trying removing Skype to see if that's causing issues.

Suggest you to update to .98 or even .105, do a factory reset and check how it works afterwards.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kiminoir:
So you presume that its a problem with software and not hardware is that correct?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sxtester:
Yes, correct. I'm running on .98 since day one and never had any unintended reboots at all. As we speak, my Z3C runs since about 10 days.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kiminoir:
How do I do that though? There are now more issues now. The necessary phone applications themselves are now crashing (ie. contacts, clock, walkman) I've included a photo for you. My current plan is to send my phone back to Sony for repair once again. The problems seem to appear out of nowhere. :(

Thanks in advance

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4i4okotka:
Hi all,

2 days ago I purchased brand new Z3 and today the device started restarting every 15-20 minutes. There are no external factor that seems to be causing it – the phone restarts without being in use. What I’ve notice is that it’s doing a “Soft Reboot”.

Some additional info – after the phone was turned on for first time it asked for an Software Update to Android 5.0. After installation it rebooted and asked for another update. The heaviest app that is currently running is Facebook.

I would really appreciate any suggestions as I would like to avoid waiting for two weeks for the service centre to do something, that I can also do.

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bboysamm:
Hey guys, so my N5 can't exactly read my sim card properly. It can recognize that a sim card has been inserted but LTE doesn't work. After playing around for a while, I found that if I set my phone to 2g it works temporarily, but 3g and LTE does nothing at all. This isn't exactly a hardware problem because my sim card can still be read. Is there any way to fix this?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zepius:
did you have a LTE device before on your provider?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectrys:
#1 Who is your Carrier?

#2 Is your Subscriber Identity Module capable of LTE?

#3 Are you on a prepaid or post paid service?

Most likely problem; Have you paid your bill recently?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bboysamm:
I have the sim card in a s3 right now as I try to figure out this issue, and it's working just fine. Using AT&T right now
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectrys:
Is your nexus new or used?

Have you tried resetting it?

Edit: Stupid, Stupid Me, just go check your APN settings.

Settings>More>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names

Check and see if a AT&T one shows up
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bboysamm:
An AT&T one did show up but it didn't work at all
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectrys:
OK good!

Try these instructions:

http://apn-settings.com/us/att-apn-settings/

I am in Canada and I do not know the settings off by heart so try the above instructions
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bboysamm:
No luck :( neither of them worked. I tried restarting the phone too
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectrys:
OK...

Have you tried factory reset?

Otherwise call at&t and get the specific info
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bboysamm:
Yeah, I have. I tried factory reseting to 4.4.4 and to the android L developer preview... No luck

Is it an issue with the APN? I'm still really confused as to what the problem is
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectrys:
It sounds like the APN is just messed up, if you have another carrier Sim handy, I'd give it a try.

I have been looking for other APN configurations for AT&T for you and all of them look the same.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bboysamm:
Yeah. I tried multiple apns myself.... No luck. Would that thing that's been coming up recently about using that "Nexus 5 Field Test" app to change LTE settings affect my phone at all?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectrys:
I have not personally played around with it yet, I have read the posts though. You could give it a shot.

It does tweak some settings, such as LTE mode and things. Your N5 may be in some weird mode. You could check and compare with the posts.

It would appear they only have one image for the pure edition which is for TMO.

Does Motorola release images for the European xt1092 pure edition model?
[X 2014 General] fvc2000:
Did anyone try to flash the original image?

I just tried and it bricked my phone!!!

Maybe because I'm downgrading from 5.0 to 4.4.4??

did anyone manage to downgrade it?
[X 2014 General] Sdobron:
Op said he downgraded just fine. You must have done something wrong...
[X 2014 General] knitler:
I down graded using the flash directions listed on the Motorola site and it worked perfectly fine. In fact I am now puling down the official Lollipop Soak test form the Moto servers right now.

What error do you have?
[X 2014 General] fvc2000:
It just didn't boot.

After 10 seconds of boot animation it went to black screen.

besides that... during flash I got this error:

If I flash this factory image to an xt1092 it will probably eff up the baseband and imei stuff right? Then I have to restore the original baseband/modem files for the 1092? I'm just trying to get my 1092 to be as much like a 1095 as possible. I purchased the device thinking it was a 1097 from south america but it ended up being a euro 1092. Kinda pissed moto enabled so few LTE bands. My Sony z3c has like nine or ten bands enabled.

[X 2014 General] durrell12:
For those begging for a mirror, the file is hosted on Google Drive. Motorola is literally getting you to request access to a Google Drive shared file.

If it's slow it's probably not because of where it's hosted.

Also, thanks OP for this..was able to flash back via a BAT script and it worked perfectly on the first try. I'll stay stock and unlocked and wait for OTA now. :)
[X 2014 General] Richard_Black:
Uhm Noob question.

Which one is the modem? I followed the steps on motorola's site to reflash stock image but it seems that it didn't install the modem. On "about phone" it says baseband: unknown :S.
[X 2014 General] lizaSB:
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
[X 2014 General] Richard_Black:
Thanks.

Well tried to flash official image on my XT1097(Latam "pure" edition) first with motorola's way and then with the multi tool.

Everything works fine except the modem/radio. I just can get no signal.

Tried Flashing the modem from the XT1097 posted a while ago still with no luck...
[X 2014 General] lizaSB:
The images that were posted have a modem that is specifically meant for the XT1095. You could try pulling the modems from the 1097 images here: http://motofirmware.com/files/category/8-victara/ (I'm guessing you might want RETBR for brazil retail RETLA for Retail Latin America) Or you could search the giant L OTA thread, or find someone to ask in your country to send you the backup they made of their modem. Alternatively, the 1097 brazil system image is here: http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=37
[X 2014 General] Richard_Black:
Yep, Managed to get signal with the brazialian modem on the system image with the official image.

Will start over and try the LATAM one. Ugh this was easier with the nexus...

Anyway, thanks for the help!
[X 2014 General] lizaSB:
I feel you! A little bit frustrating that we only just got PE factory images today, and the only reason that seems to be is so that they can ensure the soak test works properly. Still, we did get mostly-official L before the Nexus 5, so I'll keep my grumbling to a minimum :D

Thanks mschumacher69! However I can't seem to lock my bootloader... When I run fastboot oem lock it gives me this error

So I tried to do fastboot oem lock begin and then follow the steps to flash the image back to my device and I still couldn't lock the bootloader. Anyone have an idea?
[X 2014 General] Deathbyfugu:
I'm in the same boat. Tried the instructions twice to no avail. Big waste of time :crying: I mean all I want to do is relock my device, why does Motorola have to make it so complicated?
[X 2014 General] woodbr30043:
I figured out what you need to do. First put your phone in fastboot mode then follow these steps:

$ fastboot oem lock begin

$ fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

$ fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img

$ fastboot reboot-bootloader

$ fastboot flash logo logo.bin

$ fastboot flash boot boot.img

$ fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

$ fastboot flash system system.img

$ fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

$ fastboot erase modemst1

$ fastboot erase modemst2

$ fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

$ fastboot erase cache

$ fastboot erase userdata

$ fastboot oem lock

Your device will then restart. The message about an unlocked bootloader still shows up but when I booted the device back into fastboot it shows "Device is LOCKED. Status Code: 2". It still says that the software status is modified but the device is locked.

[X 2014 General] zxcv888:
I also have a locked bootloader. Can this work on locked bootloader?
[X 2014 General] mschumacher69:
There's no point in re-locking ur bootloader because u can never restore it to its virgin locked state and relocking won't get rid of the warning msg.

Yes, as long as u're flashing on the xt1095...
[X 2014 General] Austin_tacious:
I can't get either fastboot to work. The command window opens, I see several lines of text show up, and then it closes; all within a split second.

Not true you can get rid of the warning msg by flashing the logo as shown in this post on how to unlock bootloader.

[X 2014 General] Austin_tacious:
Thanks. Sorry for the N00b level ignorance. I was able to get through the process, but now my phone turns off during the boot animation. Should I try wiping the device, or is this some other problem?
[X 2014 General] mschumacher69:
Did u flash all the partitions?
[X 2014 General] Austin_tacious:
I used everything that was listed in the folder. I did copy and paste them into the platform-tools, so I could use the fastboot there. The one in the TMO directory kept saying "waiting for device".

When I attempted to flash motoboot, I get a failure message in cmd and the phone reads "version downgraded for tz".

Update: after clearing the cache, the phone booted up fine. After all my apps update, I can make sure everything works
[X 2014 General] thedarksavant:
After going through the process, my phone boots to the M animation, then goes black. No response to power button or volume keys at all.

Thoughts?

Edit: Booted into recovery and did a factory reset. After that my phone booted fine. The Motorola sites says the data erase is optional, but it does not appear to be so.
[X 2014 General] thedarksavant:

[General Questions and Answers] wowthatisrandom:
in build/core/Makefile ("Makefile" is literally the name of the file you need to edit )

do a search for "ota_from_target_files" right below it you should see the "--block" you can either comment it out (#) or just delete it.
[General Questions and Answers] dreamwave:
I tried that, found no block trigger. What I did that seemed to work is go into the file, set the default for the block option to the reverse of what it is (I think that meant true->false on mine) in the actual otafromtargetfiles file, and then scroll down in that file and change the interpreted value for it to true being identified as false, and vice versa. Don't add any block/remove any block trigger from the makefile. No idea why this worked for me, and I'm not sure it will work for everyone, I was using cm12 latest source so no idea what was changed in the compiler and it's interpretation of flags.

Hello xda-developers Boardusers :D,

ive got an HTC Desire S and wanted to flash it..

The CWM is installed but since then i cant conntect it to the PC anymore.

Maybe its the USB-Port of the Phone..

Is it possible to update my ROM without Fastboot.. The Phone is S-ON and got an T-Mobile Branding.

I tried to update the ROM but then it stops booting at the T-Mobilelogo.

And if i extract the RUU 4.0.4 and rename it on the SdCard to PG88IMG.. It starts to load but.. But it wont let me flash it because when its finished with loading it just go back to the Mainmenu.

I would really appreciate your help.
[HTC Desire S] Saf98:
I think you have to be s off for that or unlocked boot loader which requires PC connection.
[HTC Desire S] jmcclue:
the ruu dont work Because ur bootloader is unlocked. u need to relock ur bootloader using fastboot commands before a ruu will run.

how do u charge ur phone if usb dont work??
[HTC Desire S] Silberpfote:
Charging accually works.. But the Phone wont go into "Fastboot USB".. So im unable to Relock it. Or is there a posibility to Relock it using the CWM?

A Custom Rom would be fine too.. And i tried on and installed it with the CWM. But it stops booting at the Tmobilelogo.

I tried a Goldcard to with the CID TMOB101 but that didnt worked as well.

But dont know if this acually the right CID. I found this one on the internet.. Is there a way to find the CID without fastboot?
[HTC Desire S] jmcclue:
Oh rite. So use link below to setup fastboot and install drivers.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2588979

Once thats done, reboot pc. Then boot ur phone into fastboot mode and plug it into pc, hopefully will say fastboot usb.

The reason a custom rom does not boot is because ur s-on u need to flash the boot.img inside the rom via fastboot commands. So either way we need fastboot working!! That tool above is very good
[HTC Desire S] Saf98:
Make sure its not ur USB cable thats gone.

[General Questions and Answers] RockinHomes:
Hey guys and gals, I'm hoping someone here can help me. I have had a Samsung S4 for a about a year and a month ago all of a sudden, when I place a call, it acts like it going to connect but I never hear the ringback tones and when the receiving party answers they can't hear me and I can't hear them answer. It's as if I never successfully placed a call on my end, it jeeps continues to say "dialing". On the other end, the receiving party hears their phone ring but when they answer there is nothing there. I called tech support at Verizon and they thought it was a bad SIM card, so they sent me into the store for a SIM swap. That didn't work, so the tech at the counter ordered a replacement S4 for me. Now I'm sorry to say that it doesn't seem like a phone issue at all, rather an app or something that is causing the problem because I've had my new phone for 2 weeks now, and it just started happening again. I haven't installed any apps today that were on my phone prior to it happening the first time.

So A. has anyone seem this happening before and if so how'd ya fix it? And B. If not, is there a way I can find out what processes on the phone have happened in a time listed format that I might be able to narrow it down to a particular app possibly? I really don;t want to have to go through another hard reset of I don;t have to.

Thanks so much you all!!
