[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JamesInsights:
Hi guys

I really need help with my G2.

Basically, I installed resurrection remix, everything working fine for a week.

Today, when i used my phone, it kept force restarting. Finally, it got into a LG logo bootloop and has not been able to start up.

I managed to get into TWRP recovery but when I tried to reflash my ROM it said it could not mount system.

I decided to flash CWM to see if I could fix the problem and sure enough, it fixed but there is another problem.

When i tried to wipe cache, it hangs and freezes and gets stuck on formatting cache.

I reboot and I see these messages below:

E: Can't mount /sdcard/

E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/command

E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/log

E: Can't open /cache/recovery/log

E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log

E: Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

I decide to try wiping cache again but to no avail.

can anybody help me?

Thanks in advance :)

I'm using 2.06 with radio 1.27 and it's been working great, but for some reason it's being really quirky the last week or so. I have two things going on. Some times the phone looks like it's working fine but I stop receiving email divia direct push, and cingular's xpress mail stops working too. I just think I haven't received new email, but then I find out someone emailed me and I didn't get it... so I reset the phone and when it reboots, I start receiving email again. Other times it just refuses to connect to any data services and I'll even get a pop up saying there is a problem with my GPRS connection and nothing will work until I reset it. I have to reboot the phone on a daily basis now or it'll stop getting email.. I haven't installed anything new or changed any settings, so I'm at a loss for what might be going on. Anyone else having this problem?

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Engelhuber:
Hi all,

is it possible to set the standard streaming quality (SD/HD) or maybe some lower resolution for prime instand video?

The problem is I have a volume limited LTE connection... While watching prime via browser I'am able to select between SD and HD.

Maybe there is a configuration file!? In the settings I wasn't able to find anything.

Thanks!

PS: my box isn't rooted yet...

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackantt:
Hi,

I think It depends on the concrete app. same thing happened at hulu on fire tv. I asked hulu, they told me the hulu on fire tv would adjust itself automaticly. however It doesn't work.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Engelhuber:
Thats what i heared. It adjusts depending on your connection speed. So for the time I'm under my volume limit, the streaming is in HD. This means my volume will be very fast used up. Therefore it would be great to set a fixed streaming quality in SD (or lower) to prevent blowing up my volume.

Maybe QOS in the router could be a solution!? If the router supports QOS you could limit the bandwith for the fire tv...

Is it possible to fix ghosting? I have a slight ghosting where the status bar and navigation bar are, and is also visible with some tinted images, like full grey or red..
[Moto X Q&A] fury683:
This is just how AMOLED screens work. They get burn in more easily, especially where the on screen navigation and status icons are. All Moto X have this, usually after only a month or two because they are on whenever the screen is on.
[Moto X Q&A] alexhdkn:
And it's not fixable?
[Moto X Q&A] fury683:
I don't believe so. There are apps that can help "fix" screen burn, but I don't know that I'd really buy into it.

It is normal with AMOLED screens and I don't know that I would consider it a defect, as it is expected behavior with this technology.
[Moto X Q&A] 640k:

[Moto X Q&A] Aaron315:
I don't think it is fixable. I had it on my gnex and ran those "screen fixing" apps every night while I slept for a week with no improvement. When I got my moto x I made sure you hide the nav bar and use pie in an effort to prevent it. I use full screen mode in the browser as well for the same reason as most of my screen time is with the browser.
[Moto X Q&A] kdog350:
The only way to "fix it" is this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bengigi.screen.diagnostic&hl=en though it basically just evens out the burn in.

[Verizon LG G2] Caraujo11:
I have an lg g2 on Verizon service. I rooted it last week and installed autorec. I just got a Verizon update and when I accepted it my phone goes into recovery mode (team win) screen and I don't know what to do from here. I restored my backup thinking that would allow me to boot up normally but no such luck.
[Verizon LG G2] jmsaye:
I don't have the LG G2 so I can't give you device-specific instructions, but when you root (and especially if you install a custom recovery) you can't use the updates sent by the carriers, because they only work on stock recoveries on non-rooted devices.

When you say you tried to restore the backup, is this a backup you made in TWRP (aka a nandroid backup)? Because that should probably fix things and let you boot. If not, you'll probably need to flash the LG G2 stock rom, which I imagine would be in the G2 area of xda. Since you can't boot, you'll probably also need to push it onto the phone using adb.

Long story short, it might be best to post this in the G2 forum and see if someone can walk you through how to do it specificially for your device.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andreglud:
Hello there

When I'm in fx. sideload I can easily see my phone with adb devices. But when I'm in Fastboot USB and run a fastboot command it says "<waiting for device>" .

Oh, and I'm running on Linux, but I have access to a Win7 and a Win8.1 computer. But there are diffrend errors there atm. Even though I've used ADB plenty of times on that.

I just converted back from an GPE RUU. Could the partitions be broken or damaged?

However, when trying to use Sideload on either a Windows or a Linux it gives me "* failed to write data 'protocol fault (status len)' *".

And I cant even flash a new recovery as I cant do any fastboot commands. What should I do?

Oh, and I have had S-Off from the beginning.
[G2 General] Captain Kimo:
I've always thought 3G is more power consumer than 2G (as was the case in my previous device), but surprisingly the device specifications on gsmarena say otherwise.

I wonder if keeping 3G always on is a good idea specially for someone who want to keep the battery life as long as possible. :confused:
[G2 General] br0adband:
With the G2 it's not really possible to put it into "3G" mode (at least from what I can tell). It's going to use either 2G for GSM operation or 4G (HSPA+ or LTE, either one is a 4G technology) WCDMA or LTE/CDMA or a combination of both and there's really no in-between anymore, unfortunately.

I would be quite happy with a solid 3G connection of 4-8Mbps for a decent price but, since no carrier gives a damn about it anymore (meaning 3G) they'll all pushing 4G technologies now like HSPA+ and LTE which are fine.

2G is the least battery consuming mode of cellular operation there is but it's being phased out as fast as possible by most carriers whenever possible. My T-Mobile $30/month plan falls back to 2G/EDGE speeds if I cross that 5GB threshold - so far I haven't actually done that in 2+ years of being on that plan but I've come close; had 4.85GB used one time. I do use Wi-Fi extensively whenever possible so it cuts down on the actual 5GB usage on my account, plus I use Google Hangouts with my Google Voice number for all my phone calls so I don't touch the 100 min allotment at all (but it's there if I need it). If I put my G2 into 2G/EDGE mode, battery life will increase but I'm stuck at roughly 130-180Kbps (T-Mobile has outstanding 2G/EDGE coverage here in the Las Vegas area, I get those speeds consistently wherever I've tested it and that's pretty much everywhere from mountain's edge to mountain's edge here since we're in a "bowl" valley).

I wouldn't put any serious faith in those numbers from GSMArena, could simply be a typo in some respects. I'm sure it's possible to have tuned the stock drivers to provide some great battery life in "3G" mode but, 2G just uses less, I doubt anybody would ever argue that point.

I could be wrong, of course, but I don't think I am on this one.
[G2 General] player911:
My Verizon model goes into 3G often when LTE is not available. When I don't have any 3G or 4G... I just have plain jane signal bars with no internet. There is not a way to "toggle" the 4G LTE radio like I have done on previous devices. It just seems to be all or none. I would be fine with standard 3G speeds too. I don't need a 70mbps data connection on my mobile device 24-7.

[HTC One X+] i360droid:

[HTC One X+] ahighfield:
Somewhat similar situation. I previously rooted my HTC One X+ (Intl) with Viper X+ rom. I thought I would experiment with it as it is no longer my daily phone, and since I liked the Cyanogen experience on OnePlus One, thought i would try to install it on the HOX+.

I followed these official (?) instructions http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_enrc2b#Installing_recovery_using_fastboot, however, after getting CWM recovery on and then flashing via sideload command the ROM, I am now stuck in the CM bootloop animation and computer no longer recognises the device, and can't find anyway to get back to bootloader, recovery etc.

I did read about bootloop issues after this and some people said that the boot.imhg file should have been flashed separately (thanks CM for not including that instruction!), and somehow my computer recognised it one more time after the bootlooping started and I managed to get into fastboot to flash boot.img, but, then rebooted and bootloop again. Since then I have had no way to get back into recovery or bootloader, so it just runs until battery dies.

Should it go into the bin? Or anything else I should try?

Thanks so much for any

EDIT: Solved...I was able to get recovery back, then did full reset and followed instructions above re boot.img flash and now am back into my phone with a new lease on life and CM ROM!!
[HTC One X+] ahighfield:
Two more noob questions if I may, now that I have my HOX+ back...

I am now running CM 10.2.1-enrc2b.

I have 3 updates available and being offered to me (upgrade to CM11 from CM10):

- cm-11-20140308-SNAPSHOT-M4

- cm-11-20140916-SNAPSHOT-M10

- cm-11-20140916-SNAPSHOT-M12

1. I downloaded and installed the latest M12, but upon rebooting it went into a bootloop for 15mins+. I then followed your instructions again to get back. So, it seems I at least need to install them in order starting from the earliest (ie M4), but before doing so I wanted to check if anyone knows if these are even compatible with my HOX+ (Intl)?

2. Which would be the best place to get the right gapps package and installation instructions (if CM can get it wrong, am now wary of someone else leaving out the critical boot.img flash step eg)?

Thanks!

EDIT: Nothing like some self-help. I am good now.
[HTC One X+] i360droid:
to get into bootloader, hold down the vol down and power, the home lights will flash (atleast they do when its booting), it will reboot, when you get the htc logo, let go of power button. and now try a stable er version of the rom.

---------- Post added at 02:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:40 PM ----------

ok, dont do an ota update in cm, you need s-off, which you cant get on the hox+

flash the rom, flash the boot image, boot, reboot into recovery, SIDELOAD gapps and that should work. use cm10 for the moment, as cm11 has an annoying system ui crash loop bug.
[HTC One X+] ahighfield:
Thanks again for your clear and helpful pointers that got me out of a mess, I seem to have figured it out, downloaded the latest CM11 update and extracted boot.img for separate flashing and it all worked, then added gapps and seems working good now (except for dead touch zone from kids dropping it too many times probably!). The OTAs clearly don't work as is and CM probably should update their instructions and how they push major updates that need a new boot.img. Now to work out what to do with my spare phone...!

Hi XDA,

I've used these forums to use custom roms on my LG P500, nexus 5, and more recently, my girlfriends HTC Desire HD.

This is apparently not as easy with HTC and did not go well. After following some unroot advice, I attempted to use an RUU but it didn't work. Now the phone won't boot up all the way, stuck on the logo (have to take the battery out and reboot into fastboot).

OK, good to know. I probably got myself into this mess by flashing a few roms over eachother. I'll post this to the think tank and see what they have to say about it. The thing is that I've forgotten which roms I've flashed, and what process I used to gain access in the first place. All I can say is what I have now. Bootloader works, can access custom recovery, and can report the info from getvar as well as the bootloader screen. The phone won't boot past the rom's loading screen.

I've run into an issue with my N7.
