[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vaporwavie:
Hey guys...

I'm preparing my moto g for selling, but i need to relock my bootloader, so everything goes like the first day i bought'em.

But when i try to flash the stock rom using fastboot i can't follow it through. It gives an error of "Preflash validation".

PS: I'm doing the correct sequences on flashing. Like this:

"mfastboot.exe oem lock begin

mfastboot.exe flash partition gpt.bin

mfastboot.exe flash motoboot motoboot.img

mfastboot.exe flash logo logo.bin

mfastboot.exe flash boot boot.img

mfastboot.exe flash recovery recovery.img

mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0

mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1

mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2

mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3

mfastboot.exe flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

mfastboot.exe erase modemst1

mfastboot.exe erase modemst2

mfastboot.exe flash fsg fsg.mbn

mfastboot.exe erase cache

mfastboot.exe erase userdata

mfastboot.exe oem lock

mfastboot.exe reboot"

What can i do? Cheers!
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ggunzio:
Have you flashed stock lollipop ota? If yes, you cannot lock bootloader again. Nevertheless to say, that after unlock it, you cannot relock it again like pre factory.

Bootloader status code

Code 0 - locked with warranty

Code 2 - relocked without warranty

Code 3- unlocked without warranty

There is no procedure atm to put code 0. And never will be, because when bootloader gets unlocked, the e-fuse is blowned
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vaporwavie:
Nope, i'm trying on Kitkat.

So there is nothing i can do to get the Code 2 again? The warranty stuff doesn't make such difference to me...
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Salos1:
My Galaxy S4 decided to password protect itself... no idea why. I usually use the Lock Screen pattern, when I screw that up enough it prompts me for a PIN. I guess that's what happened, but after I got in after doing entering the PIN, I didn't reset my PIN or pattern, so now it's asking me for a password to get into the phone.

I've tried using Android Device Manager to send the phone a new password... it doesn't work. When I send an integer only password the phone prompts for a PIN, but it doesn't accept the PIN I send, and when I send it a alpha-numeric password, it prompts for a password, but doesn't accept that either. Clearly the phone is acknowledging the receipt of new protocol.... but it's not adhering to the new directions.

Anyone know how get around this? Or another method that doesn't require me destroying all of my data? Or a way for me to retrieve my data without having to manually select "Use as Media Device" (can't do this since I can't access the drop down menu).
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
Well, if you're rooted you can mount to your computer via the recovery.

You can also try a dirty flash. Will not destroy your data but it may cause bugs and other problems.

Maybe you got some kind of virus.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Salos1:
Not rooted, do I have to be rooted for a dirty flash?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
You have to be rooted to install any kind of custom rom.

I think samsung kies has a backup feature. But I may also backup the password.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KodRoute:
Hello. First of all I've been having my Nexus 5 for about a month now. I tried inserting some headphone plugs and none 'clicks' when I insert them in the jack. Today I looked down the jack with a phone's flashlight and I can notice some circular glass deep down the jack. Is there any way to get that glass or whatever that is out? By the way the phone is new and no I don't think there is any kind of dust there, trust me. Should I send the phone to warranty?

Thanx.

[LG Optimus 4X HD] fritzcola:
Our devs and their work on Lollipop made a lot of progress in the last weeks. We got a few good working Roms! So i decided to make an Index with all Lollipop Based Roms for our beloved LG P880/X3.

First of all, which ROMs are included here? Well, I just searched and chose the active threads (even if the ROM doesn’t have any recent updates, the thread should at least remain active, with constant feedback from users and devs) but this isn't a must. But for no activity in the thread for atleast two months will not be listed in the NEW Repository. Please remember, the most important thing is to read the thread of the ROM that you choose, take a look at the benefits, user reviews, bugs, FAQ, etc. And then, flash it. Of course all the feedback is welcome, if you see some wrong information or want to see a ROM added/removed, you can post a reply in this thread or send me a PM.

The Roms are ranked by their release date

Fixing an issue with d800 being too high, but as I just told you, hopefully after I test tonight's build, I'll be able to sync up and work on p880 a bit more. I'm glad to hear you guys have been able to get nfc working as well. Thanks to all users for their patience and feedback, as well as all of the other devs for their work... because my main priority has been on the G2's. Great work to all!

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patt2k:
Is it worth upgrading firmware to the last rootable one?

I have the one that ends in "1" something like 5.1.0.1 I think.

are there any stability improvements in the last ROOT-ABLE firmware?

I saw the guide on AFTVNEWS to upgrade it doesn't seem to hard I should be able to do it.

Thanks!
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashsha7877:
i did upgraded to pre-rooted firmware 511.1.4.0 and i believe it fixes bugs and probably, the most important thing they add is under developer options you can now select apps from unknown source, with this enable you can simply download any apk from web site using a web browser(chrome, firefox, ect), you no longer have to side load the app.

here is the link which outline some of major fixes and changes with each updates, for more detail info you probably will have to dig on amazon site.

http://www.aftvnews.com/software/

Thank you
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patt2k:
I am already rooted so I would just have to upgrade it using the guide they made.

So I guess I will do it when I have more time. Thanks for the tip.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stovie_steve:
Hi Guys,

A friend of mine has bought a phone from eBay which is a converted developer edition phone and upgraded to the latest firmware/software. He lives in the UK, so will 4G/LTE work on the phone considering the developer edition has been flashed onto the phone, or can this simply be fixed by flashing a .401 firmware which will update the radio?

The phone is S-OFF, so if a new ROM needs to be flashed it can be done

Thanks
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ANGRY_robert:
4g availability/coverage is always region specific. Has he tried the phone yet? If it works I would leave it alone. You could flash just the radio. But being that he is located in the UK and s-off, why not just flash a x.x.401.x ruu and be done with it. Especially if he has no plans to venture away from stock.

Hello,

I've was forced to create a post about that because there is almost nothing of use that can be found about that phone in the internet.

I need to know how to check the bootloader status on this device so i can safely root it, and if there are any working ROMs. I've found out that it is possible to install 9505 roms on that phone, however the touch and other crucial features do not work while using them.

Cheers, Paweł.

Go into download mode and if you see Knox warranty void you have new bootloader.this has nothing hover to do with safe root or not.you can still however root the device.but counter will be tripped if flashing custom recovery and kernel.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zebbro:
Oh thanks! :good: I will do so. But about that safe root. I wanted to use the CF Auto Root for that and it was said there that if the device has a locked bootloader it will brick if i'll try to unlock the root access.

Should i try another way to root my device or give it a try and see what happens if i'll root it using cf auto root. I know that almost none or all ways to root the device are not safe, but following some of them have higher chances of success than others that's what i meant by safe root.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LastStandingDroid:
I think you have misunderstood or misread.or users haven't understand that root is still possible. It isn't locked in any way. The bootloader still let's you flash custom kernels etc.

Rooting with cf root shouldn't and has never bricked your phone on newer recoveries. The bootloader isn't locked in the way of flashing in Odin you can still flash custom kernels and recoveries but it will trip the Knox counter.

However: tripping Knox will cause you being unable to use Knox apps from Samsung and might void your warranty.

Users have told different reports about them being tripped and got warranty and some haven't. I'm not sure if this lies in 3rd party repair centers repairing the phone even if it's tripped. I'm sure Samsung service center is against it.

I'd be 100% sure that my phone carrier would repair it no matter the status since it doesn't go trough Samsung service at first.

However to gain root you should try towelroot it's a one click apk and it won't trip Knox unless you flash a custom kernel or recovery.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blaziken1222:
Didn't work in the CM12 build I tried out either, but that was pointed out in their thread. Anyways, my issue, quite simply, is that the damn thing doesn't work. It's probably the ROM, but eh, maybe not. I remember universal IR APIs were implemented in KitKat, which is the only reason this bugs me so much(besides not having another way to turn on my TV - seriously, the buttons don't work and my physical remote is long gone). Anyways, what are you running on your G3? Does IR work? Is it LG or AOSP, KitKat or Lollipop? And most importantly, is it available for the vs985?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] dafoxs:
This is not your normal everyday wallpaper app for your phone. This is a collection of photographs taken by myself over the years. Each photo is very high resolution, most are 4000x6000 in size. These photos not only can be used for wallpapers on your phone, they can also be saved and printed out for your own use. At this moment, there is 300 images. I will be adding more as time goes by.

Please read this entire OP in full....

Download Here http://bit.ly/1FspE7Q

The best way to set a photo as your wallpaper is to save it to your device, and then crop it to your liking and applying it with your home screen launcher. After pressing the save icon, you may see "Something went wrong" pop-up, but ignore it. The photograph will still be saved, and can be found within your device's gallery. It is also possible to apply the photo as your wallpaper from within the application itself.

I also use Wallpaper Wizzardii to get the wall set how I like it. It has many option like scroll, no scroll, zoom etc. It also is on the Playstore. http://bit.ly/1xVC2cZ

Unfortunately, every phone or launcher will handle wallpapers differently, some zoom, some don't. It is not a flaw of this app.

Warning: It is recommended to only use this application while connected to WiFi, as it will consume data quickly with all the Hi-Res pictures. Also, if you are tight on storage space on your device, it may be necessary to clear the application's cache after a certain amount of time browsing the wallpapers.

There will not be many updates required for this application, because new photographs can be added instantaneously due to it being a cloud based app. If you have any issues, please feel free to email me, and I will try to help as quickly as possible.
