I also tried to connect the tv either from cable or wifi, but it didn't help.

While using my phone it suddenly displays " Shell has been granted superuser permission"? What is it & how to get rid of it ?
[XDA Assist] Stryke_the_Orc:
If you want to keep root, you can't get rid of it. What this is is the system telling you that something running had requested root access.
[XDA Assist] Abrar551:
It is shown by uc browser. Is there not any other method to get rid of?
[XDA Assist] Stryke_the_Orc:
There is an xposed module that will remove all toast notifications.
[XDA Assist] Abrar551:
But it will not stop lagging my phone at that time.
[XDA Assist] Stryke_the_Orc:
Shy of editing the system apps to not display toast messages I don't know if any other way, sorry.

install twrp or cwm for sony xperia s

hi,i want to flash nASOP 5.0 on my xperia,

little backgound:-

i have rooted my phone using kingo Root

i tried to install cwm recovery through RecoveryX. Although the installation was successful but whenever i try to enter recovery..the screen goes blank after sony logo. so kinda dead end.

i have made the TA Backup too(using Backup TA v9.11 (2014-06-15))

i also tried

TWRP MANAGER from play store

for installing twrp recovery.but it failed. also i am confused whether to install 2.8.0.1 (as xda forum says 2.8.1.0 does not work for xperia s) for nozomi.img or LT26i.img(i know nozomi is the code name and lt26i is phone model...but then why two IMG files).

MY Questions

1-I have read all sorts of procedures to unlock boot loader but i have also read that we can install recovery(TWRP OR CWM)

without unlocking the boot loader

can we? if yes please direct me to the right thread explaining the procedure.

2-my biggest confusion going thru xda forums has been that i haven't changed the kernel or flashed anything else and ryt now i am on JELLY BEAN 4.1.2 BUILD-6.2.B.1.96...that means i already have a FOTA kernel ryt? if yes then why download stock kernel again

please help what to follow from this page --(http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/144)..

please help this is my first time..but i am not asking questions directly.... i have read various pages and some are confusing me

[Sprint LG G2] thornofcarrion:
Hello,

This is my first time using any LG product having Android. I bought LG G2 LS980 (LS980VSE) with 4.4.2 from a local shop in Pakistan. I am new to LG so please help me out in multiple issues I am having.

1) First of all, I get Hands free Activation Notice every time. What is it and how do get rid of it? I did look for a solution and it told me to rename a certain apk file. I am unable to do as I am not able to root the device. I will mention it later.

w

2) I am not getting an option to Import Sim contacts. I can make calls or receive them but there is no option to import/export contacts from sim card. Could it be related to hands free activation?

3) As I mentioned earlier, I am unable to root my device. I looked for solutions and tried different methods...none worked. I tried STump root. It says I am rooted but I am not. Towel root does not support as it says. And ioroot fails in signature vitrifaction.

Please help me solve these issues.

Regards.
[Sprint LG G2] kafeel:
Same here buddy can't root lg g2 ls980
[Sprint LG G2] jcwxguy:
tot your phone back then run stump
[Sprint LG G2] DrXdaOBGYN:
Yeah stump worked for me on LS980VSE. I reset before running it. I would just suggest resetting and running stump. However, first try downloading any new release of stumproot. Sorry if I'm no help but it worked for me on 4.4.2. If it does work be sure to run autorec for your recovery it's designed for the G2 specifically.
[Sprint LG G2] thornofcarrion:
I got root working by downgrading to ZVC. After that I able to take care for Hands Free Activation issue.

A question, can I go back to ZVE and have it rooted?
[Sprint LG G2] secret.animal:
Any root or such breaks ota and bricks phone.
[Sprint LG G2] DrXdaOBGYN:
Even if you would lose root going back to ZVE stump worked on it.

---------- Post added at 03:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:28 AM ----------

If you installed autorec you can backup just to try it gives you the option to reapair superuser. I'm not sure if anyone has tried but maybe you can use adb to drop supersu on ZVE, I just find it strange stump root worked for me I did have to run it a couple times to succeed.
[Sprint LG G2] rocket321:
You must fully unroot first, then take ZVE, then re-root with stump.

[Verizon LG G3] RBarnett09:
I updated the other day to the new OTA, 12B, for the VS985.

I just noticed today that my phone seems to have a WiFi issue. It connects to my home network, disconnects, reconnects, disconnects and continues this process.

I'm NOT rooted.

Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

Thanks.

Sent from my Verizon Wireless LG G3 (VS985)
[Verizon LG G3] iBolski:
Nope. WiFi has been strong throughout all OTAs for me.

What type of router do you have and does this happen only when you are far away?

Also, does this happen with other WiFis? If you haven't tested it against other WiFi connections, you should to ensure it's not your router. If it happens with all WiFi connections and routers, then it's the phone. Might need to do a factory reset (go back to 10b first, of course) and try that.
[Verizon LG G3] RBarnett09:
I can be right beside the router and this happen. Everyone else's phones seem to have no issue at all staying connected. I did visit a friend last night and it did the same thing when I tried connecting to his WiFi, so it's obviously the phone. But it never had this is she before the 12B update. =l

I might just roll back a couple OTA's and root.

Thanks man.

Sent from my Verizon Wireless LG G3 (VS985)
[Verizon LG G3] iBolski:
Yeah, I would probably do a complete factory reset and go back to 10b and see how that works, then root, preserve root, start taking the OTAs again one at a time to see if/when it starts, if ever.

I didn't see if you already tried wiping dalvik and cache? Might try that before going back to 10b and doing an FDR.
[Verizon LG G3] RBarnett09:
I'm not rooted by any means. I have no custom recovery to wipe dalvik cache and cache partitions.

I have been trying unsuccessfully to make an otg cable for my nexus 6. I am not a complete rookie when it comes to electronics and soldering but i don't know why i can't get it to work, if i understand correctly it should be a simple splice job with the exception of the 4 & 5 pin on the male mini usb side being jumped. I have used every app i can find that is for the mounting and nothing recognizes it. Help!?

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaptainGod:
Migrated to android about a year ago and still haven't been able to work out proper android backup.

I want to be able to mess with the system without fear of losing my data/configurations.

For example when installing Lollipop I encountered a lot of problems and every time I ****ed something up and had to reflash it I need to reinstall and reconfigure ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING (Including redownloading about 13GB of music for google play music).

This has been a major letdown as I love tweaking and messing with the system getting it 100% the way I like it.

I've been able to get a basic functioning Lollipop installation but I want more.

Here's what I want to be able to backup to my PC (a 13GB backup on the device isn't very practical, especially when messing with the system):

My apps and all their settings (Including google play's downloaded music).

System settings.

This way and I can mess with the system and once I get it the way I want- restore the backup.

I know this might seem like a lazy google question but I am really at a lose.

I've scoured the internet looking for a solution, Tried numerous programs with no success.

Please if someone can guide me in the right direction I'll be forever grateful.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aerowinder:
TWRP and/or Titanium Backup.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
The backup via won't be 13 GB. It doesn't back up the /sdcard mount.

There are 3 backups you should do.

1) Nandroid backup from custom recovery such as TWRP

This backs up /system (where your ROM is), boot (where your kernel is) and /data (where all your user apps, user data and system data is). By user data, I mean app data. Not /sdcard as already mentioned.

This backup will be 3/4GB most likely if compressed and can be copied to your computer from /sdcard.

Nandroid backup will return your ROM and settings exactly to the point at which the backup was taken. Its a complete snapshot of everything you need.

2 ) titanium backup. This app is most useful when switching between ROMs or having had to wipe to resolve some compatibility issue. It takes a snap shot of each app, but its best just to snapshot user apps NOT system apps. Sometimes system data becomes incompatible and causes problems after an upgrade or ROM change. That's why we wipe when flashing new ROMs. You'll always be best setting up system settings (ringtones, alarms etc) manually but titanium takes the sting out of setting up your own user apps.

3) some kind of sdcard backup. Personally I use foldersync to backup my entire /sdcard whilst I sleep over WiFi to my NAS. Something like this would be extremely wise. If not, at least backup your photos using some cloud app.
[X 2014 General] colourfuldays:
Nice work man!! but i have a question, if i convert to 1095 ,can i receive the ota of 1095?thx for a lot~
[X 2014 General] juliospinoza:
thank you! :o

I think not, because you changed the Baseband, but untill a update arrives I am not complety sure.

In any case just flash again the baseband of 4.4.4 Pure edition, sideload or push the OTA of the new version of Lollipop to the SD and everything should be ok.
[X 2014 General] godutch:
Motorola sells the xt1092 as pure edition too on the european motomaker sites
[X 2014 General] juliospinoza:
Yes, here in Latin America is the XT1097 pure edition too. The difference are the LTE bands as far I know. I been searching and i found that the first device to get the updates is the 1095 and the others "pure edition" later.

This guide is for those who don't want to wait for the update or like in my case are locked to a carrier.
[X 2014 General] godutch:
The long wait was because there was a severe sms bug in lollipop, which needed to be analyzed and fixed before the update could continue. Nexus devices had the lollipop pulled because of this bug
[X 2014 General] juliospinoza:
That's right. But after 2 soaks we are in Official Lollipop. Motorola is pushing the official update to "pure edition" devices and maybe later January the carriers will update
[X 2014 General] BungleMX:
This is great, I'll follow this guide early next year
[X 2014 General] samagas:
I havent flashed anything yet (I decided to play a while with my now rooted and unblocked phone due to Lollipop not being fully compatible with stuff) but I did boot my moto with the openrecovery-twrp'''''.img and performed a backup. I also did the modem dump and I'm currently uploading both, the twrp backup and the modem stuff. Just in case anyone needs an ass saver. Im adding the links as soon as they finish being uploaded

One question, I know it is possible to dump the original recovery the same way as the modem files, I supose you just need to save it "sdcard/recovery.img" but, is it worth dumping? I mean I don't see anyone suggesting it or asking for it, is it not necesary?
[X 2014 General] juliospinoza:
1. Good my friend, if you have the TWRP backup of your Nextel fimware tell me were the links are because mine was corrupted and now I dont have the original file :(

2. Of course you can pull the original recovery the same way you pulled out the modem, in fact, you can pull the entire system that way, but in our case we only need the modem/baseband because flashing an entire new firmware makes you loose signal, and the modems for differents versions of models, like 1095, 97 or 92 are differents, but the recovery is the same.
[X 2014 General] samagas:
In case something/someone messed up

Here is the TWRP backup from my Nextel Moto X, sadly for everyone I did not save the original recovery. If you do have the stock recovery it would be very much apreciated.

Just modem's files: Modem Nextel xt1097

TWRP stock backup: 4.4.4 xt1097 Nextel

OTA update for Nextel XT1097 Blur_Version.21.27.3.victara_niimx.niimx.en.MX
[X 2014 General] skulldreamz:
Has any one successfully done this with the ATT xt1097?
[X 2014 General] juliospinoza:
Should work in any model, XT1092 and XT1097. I am in Nextel XT1097 and did this and everything is working great.

[X 2014 General] borxnx:
The ATT variant (US) of the XT1097 cannot unlock bootloader at this time.
[X 2014 General] skulldreamz:
Att and when you say spaces are you referring to the # signs? I'm just surprised as it seems you are the only one that had been able to unlock ATT moto x 2nd generation bootloader which seems hard to believe but I'm not saying you didn't do it. Could you make a tutorial on how you achieved what so many others can't. Thanks
[X 2014 General] borxnx:
Mexico and Brazil (along with other countries) have non-ATT branded XT1097. It's just the ATT version that is blocked. Which is all XT1097 in the US.
[X 2014 General] samagas:
I am almost positive that if you flash back 4.4.4 along with your imei partition (I forgot the name) you will bring tour phone back to normality
[X 2014 General] Furieuxariel2:
yes i think so, im downloading a mexican firmware to restore it, i have some backup, of modem, fsg and pds, i think it's all i need, i hope, but its making me crazy, so please any help! even install it manually, and if anyone knows if pds.img will save my device!
[X 2014 General] juliospinoza:
it is normal when you convert to pure edition 5.0 , but after sideloading the 5.1 soak your IMEI and baseband will be back.

In case you want to stay on 5.0 you will have to flash the modems.

good luck
[X 2014 General] Furieuxariel2:
seems that you know something about, it happened to you? are you sure if i install de 5.1 it will recover the data? because i flashed the modem in kk and lollipop 5.0 and nothing happen, and cannot install the pds, say bootloader permission dennied or something like that. im nervous, i had no imei, imei sv, bluetooth adress, and no baseband version. y hope you can help me
[X 2014 General] juliospinoza:
The problem of most people is that they dont read the entire OP, if you see there you will find that is a common problem , and yes, it happened to me, thats the main reason I decided to make this post... when you flash a different version of modems, that includes when you convert a 1097, 1092, 1093 etc to other versions and thats because the modems of the Pure edition 5.0 are not compatible with xt1097-

FIRST. As the step 3 says: Backup, is a MUST DO!, it only takes 5 minutes and is a life savior (like in your case).

SECOND: Upgrading to lollipop. Once you are in 4.4.4 and sideload the zip of 5.0 you will lose all radio configurations thats when you have to use this commands with your OWN backup (or one of the company you are)

mfastboot erase modemst1

mfastboot erase modemst2

mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

mfastboot reboot

After that you will have radio signals back again.

And if you are in 5.0 Pure edition and install the 5.1 update your radio signal will be restored as well and thats because 5.1 Pure edition supports most bands, including the ones of XT1097.

What company is your phone? Maybe we can help you find the modems.
[X 2014 General] Furieuxariel2:
thanks, i will try and try, my company is claro chile, like i said, i tried to install the modems after 5.0 pure edition update, but with no success and i tried many times, y will try again. Or install the 5.1 is the way?
[X 2014 General] stefann0:
I tried like 3 times, and my moto x is from claro chile too. you should try another time, but when you flash the modem wait a little time and see if it worked. I've done it like that.
[X 2014 General] Furieuxariel2:
thanks bro, i forgot to convert fsg.bin to fsg.mbn, but i dont know how to because it's not just rename it, do u know how?
[X 2014 General] stefann0:
it's just rename the extension, nothing more.
[X 2014 General] Furieuxariel2:
i sent you a PM.

Please anyone else that knows how to solve it

Edit: ok, my chilean brother helped me, i installed the brazilian 4.4.4 firmware from the 5.0 pure edition and recovered all my data, please put this post in main page to help another people!
[X 2014 General] tiaoalvino:
I can confirm this method works with the conversion of a XT1097 Brazilian Retail for a XT1095 Pure Edition. After apply the 5.1 upgrade, my device get signal, and 4G works normally.

Now I have a fully converted Pure Edition! :D
[X 2014 General] juliospinoza:
What do you want me to post on the OP? there is no 4.4.4 brazilian pure edition, not even 5.0. I've been following your situation throw the weekend and this is the first time that someone cant convert the XT1097 to pure edition using this tutorial and that's not because the OP is wrong, is because you didn't follow the instructions as posted. first, I told you to flash the 5.1 over the 5.0 even with no signal and you didn't (told you twice), second, on the OP is clearly specified DO YOUR OWN BACKUP, also you didn't and third, is not my fault that you don't know (now, didn't) how to change an extension file.

It is logical that if you flash a 4.4.4 of the version you own your signal will be restored, even if you flash a mexican, canadian, peruvian, etc etc and that's because the XT1097 of all countries is made to be compatible with all the basebands.
