[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] randysoto5:
Ive held off, but before I update to 5.1, I figured I'd ask before running into problems

Im able to navigate to the TWRP folder when in recovery and restore backups, though the folder is nowhere to be found when looking with a file manager.

I've used Astro, Amaze and Cabinet file managers and the TWRP folder is missing. I did notice a file named TWRP, but it does not open and is not a folder.

How can I get the folder back to manage my backups?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zagorteney:
TWRP folder is in /data/media/0. It has been answered for thousand times.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] randysoto5:
No it is not. I just recently had this problem, say a month. Ive dealt with what youre talking about when switching from kitkat to lp, but that was loong ago and has been fixed. This is a random thing. All my folders and data are available except TWRP, so try again
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] happiness4u:
Install Terminal, type in:

su

restorecon -FR /data/media/0

Then reboot your device. You should have your TWRP folder back normally. This happens when you perform a backup via TWRP which disalign the partitions. Try updating your TWRP recovery to 2.8.5+, they seem to resolve the issue on later versions.

(you must be rooted, and grant access to terminal).
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] randysoto5:
Duuuude, it worked. Thanks a million
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] happiness4u:
You're welcome! :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zagorteney:
Will this also work on 5.1 with 2.8.5.2 version? I can see TWRP folder in /data/media/0, but not on my PC.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] happiness4u:
My TWRP folder is visible on my computer, even its contents inside. You could try, I'm still on TWRP 2.8.5.0. it should work with 2.8.5.2 as well. :)

Edit: Youl probably know when something's wrong with your internal storage partitions if you are having a folder named "0", it shouldn't be there in the 1st place.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zagorteney:
Is it possible, that TiB has created it and that is somehow connected with folder storage, visible on PC, but not on phone? And if you delete this folder on PC all content of storage will gone.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] happiness4u:
Yep, if you delete that "0" folder, it will wipe out the entire internal storage. I always experience this issue on old TWRP recoveries, when transitioning to lollipop or by making a backup. As for my observation with Titanium Backup, it creates a folder named "storage", I delete that folder before and it wiped my internal storage as well. That thing, I could not sorted out atm. :(
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zagorteney:
Me neither. :)

Offtopic: Don't you use CM12 anymore?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] happiness4u:
As of this moment, I'm kind of enjoying the stock 5.1. Google has made a pretty decent job with this update. :) I will surely be back to CM12 once they release the 5.1 builds. Plus OmniRom 5.1 is out too, I might also try that before really going back to CM. I really like CM because of their CAF roms. :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zagorteney:
Yeah. Rom is fast as hell. Its just funny with that scrolling bug and pissed me of - I still can't figured it out how to integrate updated system apps into rom. :) :(
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] happiness4u:
On what rom are you trying to integrate the apps? Let's go back to your thread regarding this matter. We might get infractions if we flood this one with off topics. :D
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zagorteney:
Hey! The problem of OP is solved with your help. You can talk here as you wan't. :)

Its different story with me - I just like to chat with nice people. Stay cool. :)

Forget to answer you: on stock 5.1.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] happiness4u:
Have you tried it on stock 5.0.1/2 before? I haven't tried integrating updated apps with libs to 5.1 yet. I've tried with Play music and Messenger, just replaced the Music2 in priv-app by overwriting. But I think you should put the lib files (.so) on the /system/libs for it to work. Like on GooglePlayServices.

Edit: I backread some on your thread, as my statement above was already addressed. That's strange, I might try integrating some apps and report back later.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zagorteney:
deleted [MENTION=5451017]happiness4u[/MENTION] was faster :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zagorteney:
Thanx. This is working also on CM12. About TiB storage folder we were talking abour - funny - on CM12 I simply deleted and it's gone. :) Just folder - anything else stayed.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] happiness4u:
That command will work on any android device. I was on CM12 when I deleted that "storage" folder, and I got wiped. :D That's kind of unfair to me. LOL
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zagorteney:
As you are now on 5.1, may I ask if it happened to you also that somethimes the name of Provider is missing in Quick Settings - status bar?

Does cm12 support init.d? If not, is there a kernel out there wich supports it? (D855)
[Xperia Z1 General] Techpenguin5:
There is currently an issue on all lollipop ROMs pertaining to headsets that do not have microphones. When such a headphone is plugged in it either triggers a continuous loop of Google search prompts or a multitude of random screen touches. If you use headphones or any 3.5mm compliant headphone jack device, you may want to flash this till it is fixed from source.

[Xperia Z1 General] Chocolatetrain:
Cheers, also, why didn't you put it in themes & apps? :P
[Xperia Z1 General] luizfrj:
Noob

Sorry but how is the easiest way to flash this zip.

If I try with the defaut recovery from Cyanogen it gives me the E:No signature E:Verification failed errors.

And this recovery does not have the option to disable this check.

If I install another recovery may I loose the auto update feature from Cyanogen?

Thanks!
[Xperia Z1 General] Techpenguin5:
Well I thought it being a fix and all, that it wouldn't classify as an app or theme.
[Xperia Z1 General] Techpenguin5:
You can use ES file explorer or winrar on your desktop to extract the file inside of the zip. After which you can use es file explorer to manually copy paste the file to your system partition and then assign appropriate permissions.

[Xperia Z1 General] kezown:
I had the issue where plugging the headphones in launched the google voice search, but with this fix the icons on the homescreen get a white square behind them (guessing it's touchscreen issues). Any work around for this?
[Xperia Z1 General] jackfacespoon:
This is great, thanks!

However, anyone else now having issues with the YouTube app's play/pause buttons and seekbar not disappearing in fullscreen, or is it just me?
[Xperia Z1 General] Techpenguin5:
Seems to be a general issue, I will look into it asap.
[Xperia Z1 General] Techpenguin5:
This should not happen, as this fixes both the Google voice issue as well as the white box issue. Are you using a headset with a mic or a standard headphone?
[Xperia Z1 General] kezown:
I'm using standard headphone without a mic.
[Xperia Z1 General] Techpenguin5:
May I have the model of the headphones/3.5 mm compliant device you are using. Have you tried flashings newer version of your ROM and manually pushing the file, as I think the is theost likely issue.
[Xperia Z1 General] jackfacespoon:
Thanks, much appreciated!

This is re-creatable usually through pausing a video and changing the quality (to 720p or above?) and doesn't seem to happen when not using headphones. Apologies for the lack of specifics, it's a bit finicky. Have since flashed two newer nightlies and still present.

EDIT - this can be temporarily fixable by turning the screen off and on again a few times...
[Xperia Z1 General] Techpenguin5:
Yeah it can be fixed by turning off the screen but it seems to just show up again when you go to watch another video, anyway I am testing a fix and so far it seems to be OK, I will upload it if everything is good :)
[Xperia Z1 General] jackfacespoon:
Ah amazing! Thanks again for your hard work
[Xperia Z1 General] jackfacespoon:
So, anyone tried this or know if it's even necessary in CM12.1?

I must admit I've flashed this fix on the last few nightlies without checking first if the bug is still present as I've seen nothing about it in the CM changelog.
[Xperia Z1 General] jackfacespoon:
For anyone who cares, this is still necessary with CM12.1...
[Xperia Z1 General] zgomot:
No, it's not. I used CM12.1 (RR 5.4.5) and a pair of headphones without a microphone and never had this issue.
[Xperia Z1 General] jackfacespoon:
It doesn't affect ALL headphones, it never has. Still affects my non-microphone Shures that work on stock, after a full wipe and fresh install of CM12.1.
[Xperia Z1 General] Techpenguin5:
I'm still unsure if this is necessary, I have still not flashed a stock lollipop ftf and have the need to use this on newer cm based firmware's. I shall flash Lollipop and verify whether it is necessary.
[Xperia Z1 General] Techpenguin5:
That is only because this fix is already integrated into Resurrection remix, but not cm source so all other cm roms will have the issue ;)
[Xperia Z1 General] angvil:
Can someone make this a flashable zip as I am sure many people wouldn't know how to manually install it

Thanks in advance to all XDA community
[Xperia Z1 General] Techpenguin5:
So I finally installed official lollipop (.270) on my honami and when returning to cm based roms I can see that it has fixed a lot of the issues such as screen freezes, slow charging, brightness issues and the very annoying ghost touches when plugging in a non microphone headset. However this fix is still necessary to fix the google now popup error.
[Xperia Z1 General] Techpenguin5:
This is a flashable zip you just have to be sure to disable driver signature enforcement in recovery if you are using cwm.
[Xperia Z1 General] Techpenguin5:
[MENTION=2620909]jackfacespoon[/MENTION] the ghost touch issue when watching videos can be easily fixed by installing stock lollipop and then reverting back to cm :)
[Xperia Z1 General] jackfacespoon:
Interesting! Cheers
[Xperia Z1 General] svdkillswitch:
Thanks for this fix! I'm using ParanoidAndroid 5.1 on my Z1 and this worked flawlessly (aside from the driver verification thing, so I just installed it using a file explorer and set permissions).

Stuck in a boot loop after flashing the headphone fix

I'm stuck in a CWM boot loop after applying the headphone fix. I have no idea how to get out of it. Help!

I'm using:

Sony Xperia Z1 C6903

CWM v6.0.5.1

CM12.1 Nightly build 20150816
[Xperia Z1 General] cheeze.keyk:
anyone experienced that the apple earphones not working well? i mean the right part of earphone doesn't work?
[Xperia Z1 General] SrPg_Ninja:
Yes I have. Also the bass sometimes works just fine and sometimes it doesn't . I haven't flashed the fix yet. I'll see what it is like afterwards and report.

(C6906)

EDIT: iPhone Headset is still buggy, it works but on the right side its not as loud.

Until now I haven't noticed any bugs in the system or in youtube or anything. I can not clearly say if it fixed it yet, but we'll see.
[Xperia Z1 General] Techpenguin5:
Hey, sorry to hear it didn't work out for your apple earpods, but this fix is old now and is no longer needed, provided you have updated to the latest version of stock lollipop (5.0.2) FTF. After that you will have no issues on any rom after this as long as you don't flash an older FTF at some point down the road. Not sure if this will amend your problem but It's worth a shot. Good luck :)
[Xperia Z1 General] SrPg_Ninja:
Yea I was using stock ROM Lollipop 5.0.2 US generic. No LTE in Germany with this modell... damn it!!

Anyways thank you,

Ninja
[Xperia Z1 General] motorazrv3:
Germanys net provider are using lte bands 3, 7, 20. The problem is not every provider uses every band.

The only compatible band from C6906 is band 7. Bands 3 and 20 aren't supported.

Lte Band 7 is used by every German net provider. But to use LTE you need a contract with a provider that allows you to use the lte option.

For example most monthly contracts only allow you to use 3g as band. To get lte ad an option you have to go with a 2 year contract. Then the net provider allows you to use LTE.
[Xperia Z1 General] SrPg_Ninja:

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] George_Mn:
So I've read a couple threads on this, but I'm still confused.

I want to update through OTA, but not encrypt my phone, ultimately.

Is this how it's done?

Flash Stock system, boot, bootloader, recovery (5.0.1)

Boot to stock recovery, adb sideload OTA

Reboot to bootloader

Flash custom boot w/o forced encryption

Reboot?

I think when I unencrypted back then, I had to make a full wipe? I want to avoid this.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
It would be best to wait for a 5.1 no-force boot.img to be released first. And also, wait until the 5.1 systemn.img is available. Then flash 5.1 system.img and the nboot.img of your choice.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] George_Mn:
Didn't Google want to ditch force encryption with 5.1?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
The only change we're expecting is that they may move from software to hardware encryption.

Though you could test it if you believe that to be the case.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] George_Mn:
I just read a post of someone saying 5.1 does not add an option to unencrypt.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thafngame24:
is there no way to create a 5.1 no force boot.img from the 5.1 OTA or from the system files on the phone after the 5.1 OTA was applied?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
I don't know enough about unpacking boot,imgs to answer that.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ladduro:
I am also looking for the same thing. Sideload the OTA zip file and keep it unencrypted.

I am currently on FK and I was thinking to do this:

Flash stock 5.0.1 boot.img

Sideload the OTA

Flash unencrypted 5.1 boot.img

Of course no reboots in between to avoid the encryption.

Any thoughts?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] George_Mn:
We got the factory images now, so you don't have to flash 5.0.1 first.

5.1.0 Shamu

Is there an unencrypted 5.1 boot yet?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ladduro:
Yes, here http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/development/disable-forced-encryption-gain-root-t2946715
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] George_Mn:
I messed it up. Flashed everything (but the custom boot.img) and then tried to root (Cause I wanted to flash a mod through twrp) which lead into a boot which I didn't interupt quick enough.

It now just says "Encryption unsuccessful" and that I have to reset it. I even tried flashing everything again (including new unencrypted boot.img) Oh well.. Most stuff was backed up so whatever..
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ladduro:
Sorry about that...
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] George_Mn:
Happens! I literally got everything backed up but Whatsapp so at least I got a fresh phone now lol. And it's unencrypted!
[LG G Flex 2] GBurn387:
hey guys just picked up the sprint LG flex 2 early and was curious I see in the statistics it says GSM while sprint is a CDMA does that mean it has GSM capabilities I know factory it probably comes lock but what would the unlock capabilities be and if unlocked would it work stateside AT&T T Mobile Verizon or just internationally thanks
[LG G Flex 2] algorithmae:
Where did you see that it supports GSM?
[LG G Flex 2] bricky23:
Its in the settings.
[LG G Flex 2] iBowToAndroid:
All of Sprint's high end devices have the GSM component, just like Verizon. Any Sprint phones with GSM can be unlocked, if a method is found.

The OG Flex can be unlocked for GSM use, including in the US. There is next to no info or development for the Flex 2 yet so that still remains to be seen
[LG G Flex 2] cairui505:
May be we can unlock it like ls990。。
[LG G Flex 2] iBowToAndroid:
I'm thinking of buying one full price and then having Sprint do a DSU and compare the system files from before and after. Might be a waste though if it's now done via EFS
[LG G Flex 2] cairui505:
yeah...good idea.I just bought one from swappa..
[LG G Flex 2] carlosirai:
in intersted to know too... any body try the sprint lg g3 method?
[LG G Flex 2] carlosirai:
Bump!!!
[LG G Flex 2] cairui505:
what? it works?
[LG G Flex 2] Wreckless985:
I just got a Sprint LG G Flex 2 today off contract. I'll try getting Sprint to unlock it for me tomorrow and post the results for you guys. If anyone knows of a method to unlock it without going through Sprint, please let me know.
[LG G Flex 2] iBowToAndroid:
They'll do it if it was purchased at full price originally. That's the easy part. Hard part is going to be deciphering what they do exactly. I bought one full price to try to figure it out. I'm going to dump the system files as they are now and also after the unlock and compare, and also log the unlock process.
[LG G Flex 2] Wreckless985:
I'll be trying the same thing. Apparently most of it will be done via an OTA update. If I can isolate the files pushed to it, I may be able to get us a method.
[LG G Flex 2] joeminati:
Any luck with the unlock process?
[LG G Flex 2] iBowToAndroid:
Currently doing analysis. Have isolated the app responsible (not that it was hard to guess) so now looking through logs. I can say that I don't think the solution will be ROM-based..
[LG G Flex 2] dark.wizard:
had anyone tried unlockunit?

hey're telling, it's possible via a code
[LG G Flex 2] iBowToAndroid:
Smh. Scammers. Sprint phones never have, and probably never will have, unlock codes.

Now, if they're selling the MSL, that's completely different. Don't confuse the two.
[LG G Flex 2] maxrusakoff:
still no results?

Yes.

It's almost different things.

So, did someone try ls990 method, sorry for stupid question, but, ls980, ls990 and ls995 may quick and simple unlock by this method.
[LG G Flex 2] iBowToAndroid:
There are already unlock methods for those 3
[LG G Flex 2] maxrusakoff:
:(

But, not for Ls996?

---------- Post added at 09:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:12 PM ----------

I want believe that is hardware lock. But sometimes ago I tried to hardware unlock ls970 :( no results, after soldering sim cart directly to mother board a stoped :)))
[LG G Flex 2] iBowToAndroid:
No, no unlock for the LS996. And forgive me, but you are an idiot if you tried to unlock the LS970
[LG G Flex 2] maxrusakoff:
1. So, Ls996 has hardware lock? But I can't understand, how they may unlock it quickly at the office when you pay a full price.

2. :))))) I know :))) it's all right :))
[LG G Flex 2] BillyxAllen:
I forced the update last night by clearing my framework, then did a factory reset. It's a different phone with 5.1.1. Nice and smooth, which is what I've been wanting
[LG G Flex 2] carlosirai:
but is unlocked?
[LG G Flex 2] MasterSe7en:
For starters, its not unlocked unless you buy it outright and have sprint unlock it, i own a UICC Unlocked sprint device.

Technically in the contact i have with sprint, the device will be unlocked for Domestic GSM use after the device is paid off....however they never specify what features will be unlocked

with that being said, my Flex 2 currently works with any GSM sim i put in it, I.E. Tmobile/ATT and straight talk and all that jazz, since they use ATT/Tmobile towers anyway...actually everything works too, LTE/H+/SMS/MMS....EXCEPT VOICE!! no voice calls in or out currently....so im waiting for a procedure that might help fix that, and yes ive tried it all with no luck

hope this helps with the endeavor you guys are getting into, really hope you figure out a way.
[LG G Flex 2] Tech_Savvy:
which method did you use? i tried all the tureriols here and i cant get evem sms i dont get any signal bars
[LG G Flex 2] MasterSe7en:
