try the 5.0 lollipop, seems like you already have 5.0 bootloader
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] gdmlaz:
Yea this is my problem the stupid 5.0 bootloader doesn't let me do anything for some reason............... Not even my backups load a soon as i try to restart my phone to load them phone goes into bootloop and nothing works...... I guess I'll just use the stock firmware file till somebody figures out what to do

I'm guessing it has to be with the Bootloader tied down to the stock tmobile 5.0 Kernel........... Since the only thing that loads up is the full firmware
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] galaxyuser88:
If you guys are trying to revert back to previous version of kitkat coming from lollipop using custom recovery, it will fail. You will have to downgrade with pc odin to a previous kitkat full stock firmware and then reroot. You can not flash kitkat over lollipop, it will fail and bootloop. If you are trying to upgrade to tmo lollipop and then try to restore a asop lollipop rom, it will fail as well. Asop lollipop roms are based off international roms and will not play well with tmo lollipop.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] gdmlaz:
Well that sucks......... The most I got accomplished so far is flash stock firmware/flash twrp recovery/ root it.................. I will make a backup of this on twrp and try to flash another costum rom see if that works but last time I tried XtreStoLite Internation version 5.0 and still got me stuck on the same bootloop ??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] eventheodds1:
is there anything we can flash inorder to fix the bootloop? for example i flashed stock tar for kit-kat tar, to see if i could flash ASOP lollipop roms. i still get stuck on bootloop?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] gdmlaz:
From what I remember in the past you weren't able to go back to an older firmware ??? Unless things have changed ?

I think issue we are having is a kernel issue....... Boot-loader is looking for stock 5.0 kernel and we don't have it when we flash any other rom
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] eventheodds1:
you are right you can't go back firmware, i forgot :l so we just have to wait for someone to make flashable kernel that will make it work?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] galaxyuser88:
This is one reason why dev always say to wait before you take or do any update that drops from carriers. They will see if it is rootable or if it will lock you down.

Now some people dont care about being able to root or just cant wait for a dev to say it is ok. If you can not downgrade to a previous version using pc odin, then you are stuck untill on of the devs figures this out. Please be careful, search and read before taking any update.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] calvin35:
You can go back. I took the ota update to 5.0 and messed up trying to root so odin'd back to KitKat and then took the update again. I odin'd Phil's touch used that to flash the latest twrp from ktoonsez and then flashed root. Haven't tried flashing aosp yet.
[XDA Assist] zaptor99:
Hi, a couple of yeas ago, I bought a Note 2 from craigslist then later found it was a fake. It was the same size, and model #, but I then started finding fake stuff. Stylus was fake. Screen size was off, cell signal stopped working, etc. It's running android 4.1.1. (baseband version MAUI.11AMD.W12.22.SP.V7.P3,2012/12/27 11:22). AnTuTu Benchmark was preinstalled with fake specs. So, I can't trust any specs I see in Settings, my guess it's some Chinese phone disguised as Note 2.

So, How can I identify the exact specs of the phone in hope that I can install a new ROM or cyanogenmod on it.

Any help is appreciated.
[XDA Assist] enigmaamit:
Sorry you got duped buddy. Unfortunately, if it's a fake phone and a generic vendor. it may be difficult to find out which device model it is, and even if you do, getting a custom ROM for it like CM is a very VERY remote possibility, unless you're willing to learn and cook one for yourself.

You can try to install official Antutu from play store, or https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.Bfield.CpuIdentifier

or

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.curvefish.apps.deviceinfo&hl=en

These are Play Store apps that may help you identify your device or at least its innards.

Best of luck!

That answers your question about identifying the specs. Whatever device you have, is certainly not on the supported list of CyanogenMod, or other popular custom ROMs.

[Galaxy Grand 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cripperz:
Hi All,

i have been searching for hours and tried a couple of things to get CWM and TWRP installed in SM-G7106 but to no available. SM-G7106 is a Samsung Grand 2 under China Unicom. Tried using Odin to install CWM and TWRP, despite Odin saying it passed, i still cant get into it and always goes into default Android recovery mode.

I wanted to flash a custom rom for this phone as the default rom is without google apps and cant sign / sync with google services.

I hope anyone here could shed / share some lights and hope the wonderful devs out there willing to pick up a challenge in getting this working.
[Galaxy Grand 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sacp:

Hi.

Were you able to install cwm or twrp on 7106?

I'm also trying to (find and) install a clean or custom rom for this phone, but has been very hard. I even can't get ODIN to see the phone because it won't go to download mode.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigmac801:
Hello,

I have a Verizon Galaxy Note II (SCH-I605). It is stock running 4.4.2. I left Verizon and have put a GSM sim card from a local rural cellphone provider in my phone. The phone seems to work great. No issues with calls, sms, mms, or data.

I do have a constant notification that says "Phone Activation" "This SIM card is from an unknown source". Is there any way to get that removed or will it stay because it was originally a CDMA phone?

Thanks for the help! You guys are the best!

Thank you!! I am loving it!! You made my day!!

I am rather new to G2, and had been tinkering with root, recovery, custom roms, etc over the weekend, but was a little sad that there no lollipop roms yet, not even stock. Then this came up, and I had to try it.

I reverted my G2 back to D80010d (jelly bean), rooted (via ioroot), installed TWRP recovery (via freegee), and then did a clean install of this Cyanogenmod 12. Everything seems to be working great. System seems stable, all the apps work as they should, all the customizable options are working, and lollipop feels just smooth and clean to boot. Absolutely loving it!

Many many thanks!! This is a God-send!!
[AT&T LG G2] jkassay:
Thanks very much! Works like a charm. Everything is working on my D800.

Been running the 2/13/15 CM12 for the D802 with the B1akbird kernel and it's been really good as a daily driver. Will download this one and see how it goes. Thanks a lot.

Just a heads up, check out the LG G2 development and the G2 original development threads as many LP rom builds are posted there which are built for all G2 variants, including D800.

Sorry OP for pointing to other threads in yours, but I just want to ensure that those new to the G2 experience everything.
[AT&T LG G2] Jnn1:
Thank you! Glad to know and excited to see there are many more options, like Vanir, Omni, Cloudy, etc. But if I'm not mistaken, it seems like the Cyanogenmod 12 in that forum has ceased development, stuck on Dec 27, 2014.

I'm very much loving this Cyanogenmode 12 for D800, so I do very much hope development of this rom will be kept up, hopefully becoming official like the Cy 11. I'm more than willing to donate to help too.

Thanks again to OP and bps119!

Hi, i had downloaded everything on your list, but have some questions:

i'm on stock rom 4.4.2 d80020k rooted with TWRP, cant remember if i have a custom kernel (dont think so, any way to check out?), i'm good to flash it?

do i have to flash it like this: Cm12->SU->Gapps? or CM12->Restart,->SU->Restart, Gapps->done?

thanks on advance
[AT&T LG G2] lemonboi5:
The Kernel will be included in the CM12 Package, You will be upgrading to 5.0.2 so anything 4.4.2 related will not be there besides basebands, and bootloader.

Flash like this: CM12>Gapps>SU, then Restart. (I don't think the order matters after CM12, but thats what I recommend) :good:

Enjoy :D

801 updates? But, I have a D800.

Doesn't matter the method to me personally. I just wouldn't want to have to wipe her phone each time there is an update.

Working beautifully for her I might add!
[AT&T LG G2] lemonboi5:
Right, I do too but I'm using D801's CM updates and modifying it for the d800. You can dirty flash the updates for this ROM! (Install without wipe)
[AT&T LG G2] GHammer:
TWRP for D800 and Device Specific Info

I'd stay away from kernel mods as this is a D801 ROM modified with a D800 Lollipop kernel.

Go here for a D800 TWRP:

My wife loves this mod, though I had to wipe and reload after she installed a CM12 theme. Just never booted afterward.
[AT&T LG G2] sobitthen:
usb restored

Thanks much, had to be sure, didn't want to harm the phone.

Just have to find tutorial on using the recovery since came from CWM to Philz now to this variety and a little different...

I had noticed my phone was not discoverable via USB and I am at a loss for where any settings are located to switch between modes such as charging-media etc

It would only show me the graph of the storage on the device, I highlighted over the menu and there was option to view USB connections, took about 4 taps to get it to switch over, had to uncheck then recheck to be able to view device.

I flashed the recovery, it wanted to format cache and dalvik, so I did, it is updating all my apps again, hope they still remain and issue with the crazy settings does not reappear, guess can reboot a few times, the joy of a new phone...
[AT&T LG G2] nebula37:
Going back to a stock rom

I was reading somewhere in another thread that the partions change in 5.0 so its tough to get back to stock or another kitkat ROM. Is that the case with this ROM? Or can I just wipe and flash a stock ROM?
[AT&T LG G2] lemonboi5:
You can wipe and flash definitely.

Stock LG G2 5.0 update will make it very hard though. This 5.0 however can use 4.4.2 bootloader and modems.
[AT&T LG G2] blazin876:
Few Issues

I've been trying to flash the updates on my D800 since late last month, the updates keep failing. I thought it was twrp at first, but I'm on Phillz touch and it still keeps failing. I also realize that ever since I flashed the rom I've been "rebranded" to d801 :eek:
[AT&T LG G2] lemonboi5:
Yes I've been using the D801 rom from CM for the updates. In the ROMs you're trying to flash get in the updater script and remove the getprop asserts. It'll go smooth then.
[AT&T LG G2] blazin876:
Still not working. I keep getting [E: Error in /data/media/0/cmupdater/cm-12-20150301-NIGHTLY-d801.zip (Status 6)] Not sure if I did the wrong thing, is it possible that you could upload a copy of the file with the removed asserts?
[AT&T LG G2] lemonboi5:
If you're using a d800 device do not use a d801 ROM you will be soft bricked man! That assert is there to save you thankfully.
[AT&T LG G2] blazin876:
The update was downloaded from cmupdater so theres no way it could be wrong
[AT&T LG G2] GHammer:
I'd think that if something does not install, it would be a hint.

But, you say you have a D800 and are trying to install cm-12-20150301-NIGHTLY-d801.zip

The d801 at the end of the file name says it all. It is not for your phone.

Remember this is a D800 kernel put in a different phone's ROM. When it goes to the CM servers, it reports that it is D801 and asks if there are updates. And, rightfully, the update server says sure, here you go.

It will not apply to your D800, and this is the only place where you'll ever find updates.

Subscribe to the thread.
[AT&T LG G2] lemonboi5:
It is wrong because I am modifying the D801 roms for the D800. D801 ROMs will not flash. Cmupdater pulls updates from d801 because this is essentially a d801 ROM modified for D800

No Service Msg - Real or False Alarm?

When phone is in semi-awake state, before you swipe to open and can see notifications, the No Service is displayed where AT&T usually would be and hopefully just a fluke and phone is not actually on 'no service' until fully woken up to desktop.

Anyone else notice this?

When on desktop we get a generic triangle with just a + or H+ on high left for 3G and 4G icons, haven't witnessed LTE there yet, but on a MVNO so likely we only get scraps...
[AT&T LG G2] lemonboi5:
Yes, this is a fluke, it's actually getting service. That's a bug that is definitely being ironed out. Be rest assured, you are getting service even when phone is locked! :)
[AT&T LG G2] sobitthen:
Dialer touch uber sensitive.

Touch screen super sensitive. Mind of its own at times...

I noticed if I have to actually dial a number the phone will go crazy at times and dial a series of random numbers just touching the keypad. I will dial 2 1 and get 2134212 and have to back up, if I reboot it seems to work well right away, but after using phone for a while the keypad will start adding extra numbers or act like I am long pressing some of them and fill screen with same number.

Having to use this pad for accessing voice mail box is very frustrating...

If I play the only game on my phone, solitaire I have no issues at all, sometimes when texting it will add some characters and create new words out of what it thought I had typed and write a line of its own if I don't pay attention... So it happens in text apps sometimes too, not all the time like the dialer though...
[AT&T LG G2] blazin876:
[MENTION=4862990]lemonboi5[/MENTION] I must say though, I've tried quite a few ROMs in the short period of time that I have this phone and this is THE BEST! Very good job with the ROM. I hope to see some more features added in the coming times. :good: :fingers-crossed:

This sounds like a defective digitizer.. I would call LG about that and go back to complete stock if they want it sent in.
[AT&T LG G2] sobitthen:
Digitizer, I don't think so, it did not have this issue before moving over to this nightly.

No OEM warranty with them, have a Square Trade one though, they cover anything if you word it right...

Just had an issue with the phone not ringing, I use a BT device, had it off, discovered I had missed 3 calls, I went in to see what ringtone it was in case close to the music that was playing, could hear ring tone through my BT, turned off media on the BT, the phone quick ringing, perhaps why I missed the calls. Previously phone would ring full volume and BT would only beep, I was wondering why I could hear the notifications and other sounds through BT, I never had that feature turned on before since it interfered with cardock when I synch Pandora on the road.

I rebooted phone after turning off media on the BT and phone rings now. I see the D801 has has a pile of changes, hopefully when the next D800 is released some of these issues will be a thing of the past...

Rolling dice using nightlies on a phone I need to be on call for work, at least I am my own boss...
[AT&T LG G2] lemonboi5:
I run a cellular repair shop, owner of the store, I know what being your own boss is like! Haha.

Have you tried 3/2/2015 nightly?

Glad you got some of it worked out!

What is correct method to flash these CM12s?

I did not see the new release, will try it shortly... tnx..

and going to try full modular Gapps instead of the stock version to see if that helps..

Format cache and dalvik, install CM12, install Gapps and SU , then format cache and dalvik again, is that the proper method?

I've never wiped cache after flashing before is why I ask... And I don't see it on this thread, but saw it on another phone's thread..

---------- Post added 3rd March 2015 at 12:08 AM ---------- Previous post was 2nd March 2015 at 11:47 PM ----------

On other phone's CM12 instructions, it is same as I had been doing with my CM11s, just wipe the 2 caches, flash the rom then flash the gapps, nothing else, no su no wiping cache after, will try that...
[AT&T LG G2] lemonboi5:
For some reason if you don't flash supersu it doesn't give you root access even if you install it from play store. This should be fixed soon I'm sure!

When installing a fresh ROM I usually wipe system 3 times, as well as cache, and dalvik. I don't know if its just me being compulsive but it works lol

However when installing my nightlies you don't have to wipe at all! Just flash the update and Supersu. You don't need gapps zip anymore after that. It stays put.
[AT&T LG G2] sobitthen:
I wiped cache after since there was a button to press..

One thing new this time with full gapps, was when click square to close open apps, the launcher is there and closes and restarts...

I did not flash SU and I see it is gone..

** I reflashed just SU and rebooted and now the launcher is not on the list..**

On the TWRP are we supposed to choose the option to allow them to write to external SD even though we do not have one, and if I do check this would it affect anything? It wants to patch and reboot every time I open the app..
[AT&T LG G2] lemonboi5:
Do you have a launcher? Your gapps package may have deleted the default launcher trebuchet
[AT&T LG G2] sobitthen:
Yes, it asked which launcher I wanted and I chose the Google one which I had already set up with my app icons.
[AT&T LG G2] dr4stic:
Stock root access works fine, you shouldn't be using the flashable zip.

Enable the developer options (multi-tap the build number in about phone till it tells you you're a dev). Then go into Settings -> Developer Options, find the "Root access" setting and change it from the default "Disabled" to whichever of the options you feel suits you best.

The su manager (what used to be handled by the Super SU app) is managed through Privacy Guard now.
[AT&T LG G2] Gandalf:
As a former G2 developer, I'll say this:

never once did I have to "flash a ROM twice in TWRP"

the installation/backup/restore/wipe/etc. processes in TWRP are all extremey self-explanatory, and nearly every single ROM has instructions right in the OP
