[Verizon LG G2] furry007:
Hello,

I rooted my stock phone (Verizon, 4.4.2, VS98027A, Kernal: 3.4.0-perf) using Stumproot, than installed SuperSU and used Autorec to install TWRP. I succesfully created a Nandroid backup and transferred this to my PC for safekeeping. I also took the opportunity to transfer all pics and backup all my apps, texts, etc. But I'm having an issue where the phone will freeze when I try to knock on (or wake it in general) and boot to the verizon logo and restart.

I planned on flashing a new rom to the phone (I need something super stable like CM) - Would that possible fix the issue? I read somewhere else that this problem is caused by Autorec, but I can I fix it properly?

Thanks for the help, complete noob here.
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
Your problem was using AutoRec. I've said it throughout a few threads, and others have stated that AutoRec causes issues on 27A.

You should be using a bumped recovery, not the old 2.7.0.0 recovery found in AutoRec. Try flashing blastagator's latest bumped recovery (Reboot to recovery to make sure thew new recovery loads up first), then the 27A bootstack, and then flash the boot image I posted in one of MicorMods' threads.

I'll make it easy for you:

Recovery (If you can't get the recovery to flash, you will have to adb it manually, or use MicorMod's tool): http://blastagator.ddns.net/twrp/2-8-5-1.php

27A bootstack: http://www.mediafire.com/download/jbswp6k7vwiijvx/bouchigo_VS980-27A_bootstack.zip

Boot image: http://www.mediafire.com/download/xa24h6fln972mz7/Fix_Rooted_Status_LG_G2-VS980-27A_v2.zip

MD5: 29c3c830e3147687db9ba3534fa8b481
[Verizon LG G2] furry007:
Thank you!

So if I understood correctly, transfer the blastagator vs980 recovery and MD5 to my phone. Reboot into recovery, then flash this bumped recovery file.

Then transfer the 27A bootstack and boot image you posted onto my phone. Boot into TWRP that I currently have installed, select these 2 files, and flash the phone correct?
[Verizon LG G2] bouchigo:
Just transfer all the files at once to a folder on your phone. Boot into recovery, flash blastagator's recovery, reboot recovery (there's an option in twrp that reboots into recovery without having to leave recovery) to make sure the new recovery loads up. Now proceed to flash the bootstack and boot image files.
[Verizon LG G2] furry007:
Thanks! Will give this a shot and report back

[Moto X Q&A] Hemant17:
Hi guys, i just rooted my device using TWRP. As i am new to all this, i tried flashing CM11 ROM but i was getting "failed" message again and again. Then mistakenly i used option of "Advance Wipe" and wiped everything. Now while booting up the device i am going to recovery but there is no backup available and i am unable to install any ROM as the custom ROM is also deleted along with backup. Please help me out on this. Thanks...
[Moto X Q&A] Travisdroidx2:
I have done that a few times by mistake :) I would download the rom on a thumb drive and use my otg cable to plug it in flash it from the thumb drive in recovery.

You can also side load it as well, yet I have never done it that way so you would have to search that.

I have also read some say download the rom to your pc and and plug in phone and drag the rom to your sdcard.

If all else fails you can always return to stock via rsd or mfastboot as long as you can get into download mode.
[Moto X Q&A] Hemant17:
Thanks a lot for your prompt response. I am having Moto x 2013 edition and tried to flash CM11 ROM using thumb drive in recovery mode but the "failed" message was coming , is it a compatibility issue of ROM with My device? As i told that i am new to all these things can you please guide me or share with me a link for any good ROM which i could flash on my Moto x and make it functional again.

Also if i want to get back to my stock ROM i.e. Kitkat 4.4 then how to do it? will i be able to update to lollipop in future?

Sorry for asking so many questions and thanks again for your support.
[Moto X Q&A] imnuts:
It sounds more like you should flash your phone back to stock and leave it there until you understand what you're doing. With the number of guides available anymore, the entire flashing process should be dead simple and difficult to mess up. Add to the fact that wiping/formatting partitions always prompts for confirmation before actually deleting things, and it shows that you don't really have any knowledge about what is going on. Keeping your phone stock until you do know what you're doing is only going to save you from having a paperweight in the long run.
[Moto X Q&A] Hemant17:
Thanks a lot!!!! with your support i am able to flash my phone on cyanogen12:p

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] demigodseven07:
There are many threads that focus on this same issue I have run into. I am posting this now because there isn't anything that has been posted this recent. I literally spent three days trying to find a solution.

What I did to mess this up with my S4 I337m Fido phone.

1. Odin install TWRP recovery. This seemed to work fine. I think I had to flash it twice to get it to work but I could boot to recover no problem.

2. CF-Auto Root

This process worked up to the point where you are suppose to reboot the phone and open the Su App and allow it to write permissions. This failed to work. Every time I booted my phone it would lag out and tell me SU app failed to open.

3. Flashed Slim KAT anyway...bad idea but I figured I would follow proper steps and flash. Everything was fine except for WIFI...yes everything seemed to be running smooth except for WIFI. This was obviously unacceptable.

4. Flashed stock ROM for my S4 which I received from a thread and then updated with Kies to obtain fully stock. This by the way is a suggested fix from many threads but this is where the sounds stopped working!!! Yes WIFI was good but SOUND was gone!!! WTF!

5. Flashed like 4 different froms ranging from CM11 to Mokee ROM....Nothing worked.

FIX! So I downloaded my stock rom from Sammobile.

No I flashed this via ODIN and rebooted and then did an update from Kies...This did not work to resolve the ISSUE of No Sound for me! What I had to do to fix this was to do a "Firmware Upgrade and Initialization" in Kies! What this does is ask you for your MODEL# and SERIAL# under your BATTERY. This then gets the firmware specifically for your device from Samsung. This updated my phone to 4.4.2 and everything works better then when I originally got my phone.

Again their are other threads that lay most of this stuff out but the last tweak I did not read and tried out of desperation. I hope this helps at least one person. I will continue to try and root my device because I am crazy like that. I have been an XDA user for 8 years now and enjoy custom ROMS on every android device I have come across. I cracked this S4's screen a month ago and they said warranty was void so to hell with Stock **** lol

I thank the XDA community with all my heart for giving me restless nights of modding fun. I have learned a lot from all of you and appreciate your time.

Not that I like to link to BGR or anything but http://bgr.com/2015/03/06/galaxy-s6-vs-iphone-6-camera-comparison-low-light/ here is a low light shot comparing iPhone 6 Plus to Galaxy S6 and as you can see the iPhone SUCKED.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] 850RPM:
camera performing is a deal breaker for me; if the camera does the real things I'm all in for the edge :)
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] midreestaj:
In the BGR shot especially s6 camera does not show anything better than note 4 can do currently.

f1.9 might help a faster shutter by 3-5 frames / sec indeed, but the post processing is still off ... same as note 4 i.e. extra softening of the image to reduce noise.

EDIT: In the German article "Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge: Die Kamera bei Low-light auf den Straßen Barcelonas ausprobiert" the bicycle shot between Note 4 and S6 is completely off as both are taken at different angles thus different metering and exposure results along with different set of details too.

However only found one conclusive proof and that was the in restaurant food shot. I detail checked the photos and I can confirm that Samsung has improved the post processing in S6 to a bit. Less softening and slight increase in noise has enhanced the clarity of picture. The new hardware f1.9 can seem to lighten up darker areas as well which is good but the best they have done so far is increasing the clarity by letting in a bit of noise intelligently in the post processing. Exactly this is causing 80% if the goodness here.

As far as Note 4 & iPhone6 goes, only difference that I can see is iphone is allowing much less light absorbed on sensor than note 4 by using a faster shutter by 4-5 frames and also lesser softening of the image with a bit of noise left that helps in a sharper looking picture but a darker one. Note 4 has much much more light absorbed onto the sensor thus illuminated picture but very soft look due to de-noising and then extra sharpening filter applied as well to over come it which in turns produces aliasing on the lines/borders and artifacts here and there
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] edyfrances:
wow!

I got my first Iphone 6 at 3 months ago, before that i always had a Samsung made....and the iphone 6 is so boring and the low light pictures is terrible I don't like it at all!! I am so exited to get a samsung galaxy s6 edge and back to android!

I recently rooted my moto g xt1031 (TY Smurf once again!:D) on the boost mobile network, im completely new to all this and have a couple questions which idk can be answered, at least not all of them.

1. when i lock my screen it locks differently than before it like closes from the top and bottom to the middle if that makes since, it look like its bothering to the phone and or harmful, which probably isn't. its just a bit annoying to me lol. can i undo this?

2. I installed AFWALL+ for the firewall. I have no idea how to use and can't find a tutorial for dummies, once enabling the firewall, do i have to check any boxes next to the apps? and if i do, do i check them in the blacklist or whitelist mode?

Hello all, I have a Galaxy Light SGH-T399n that was never activated I don't think. I called MetroPCS and they said they could not get me an unlock code. I was able to put TWRP and a rom on it, but I guess that has nothing to do with actually unlocking the carrier? Is there a way to go about this?

Hi guys,

Firstly, I am sorry if my english is bad, I will make grammatical error please excuse me for that :)

Secondly, here's my question : About the waterproof. Is it good ? I mean I read on other thread that it was not the greatest thing but I want to know more about that, should I avoid full immersion for example ? Or for too much time ? If I can immerse it in water, what should I do to keep it safe ?

Thanks in advance for your answer ! ;)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eumanoid:
I've had my phone for a year now and it is still water proof. first thing I did when I bought it was put it in the sink and run water on it to test if it's really waterproof. then I took it to the beach and went swimming/snorkeling with it. took it to the pool, under the rain, basically any wet, low pressure water. so I'd say it's pretty water proof. just remember to wash/rinse in with fresh water if you submerge it to anything but fresh water(say sea water) to avoid corrosion.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OMGitsbagno:
Well, for my own experience I'd say that waterproof is one the worst thing ever on phones. At least in this one.

First of all, audio isn't loud enough, and mic is affected as well. Other than that, it's easier the overheat for the phone.

Then I want to say what happened to me. Basically my phone after not more than a month wasn't waterproof anymore. It was clearly a factory problem so I sent the phone in warranty. What they said is pathetic: they can't fix your phone or change it if it's water damaged, even if it wasn't your fault!

And since Sony's behaviour is unacceptable, if you really care, don't test if it's actually waterproof.

Sorry for my English, hope u understood what I was trying to say.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Schlengge:
I would not count on it. There are a lot of reports where people lost their phone to water.

If you really need it to be water proof you should test it right away when you dont have a lot of personal stuff on it!

In the end it is always electricity and water. Never a good combination :P
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Starlith:
My one was waterproof to the point i could go diving and take it out to sea but then after months of use and the many times ive dropped it i rinsed it under a tap and my screen had water damage. The metal exterior doesnt help things. Otherwise it was fun while the waterproof lasted, its still alive but one more dive will drown it.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Didgesteve:
I have rinsed mine under the tap lots of times to get sand off of it.

It has survived being dropped in the bath on several occasions.

It should be able to cope with the day to day usage that involves getting wet, ie by a swimming pool, knocking your coffee over on it, dropping it down the loo etc etc.

I'm not sure about taking it diving.

Looking at the replys here, I'd say that you're ok to assume that it will withstand the odd dunking without any problems.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keltenfuerst:
NO.

Quite simply, no. Carried mine around in the outer pocket of a non-waterproof jacket, in the rain. Phone dead with water damage. Sony told me water damage is not covered through warranty. So, no more Sony devices for me, given the record of other Sony devices in this household, and associated responses from Sony customer "service".
