Glad that it is worked for You. Yes, You did somethings wrong, which caused You bootloop, better explained as below:

1) The "stock-6.1.A.0.452-twrp-2.4.0.0.elf" is the stock kernel of ICS version of Xperia S. So if You flash it with a ROM, Your ROM won't boot.

See, each ROM consist of two main parts, one the kernel and other the is the remaining of ROM(apaps, data etc.) A ROM is compatible only with certain kernels, and if wrong kernel is used with a ROM, the ROM won't boot. This is what You were doing, using a stock kernel on non stock based ROM.

2) This essentially doesn't lead to boot loop. This step needs to be done sometimes if You occur a error while flashing ROM via TWRP sometimes.

3) Yes, this sometimes does cause issue, the procedure is always for a clean flash, -Wipe system, wipe data, wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache. Flash ROM and immediately wipe cache and dalvik cache.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] LegatoExia:
Okay, now I understand ! There are so many roms, kernels and things like that on the internet, it was quite confusing...

Thanks again good sir, your help was a precious time saver =D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Frostymoon:
can you please tell me how did you get out of the boot loop to begin with? i can't do anything...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
I guess You are on stock firmware and flashed the "stock-6.1.A.0.452-twrp-2.4.0.0.elf" or the twrp.img file via fastboot directly. Flash the DoomKernel from here via flashtool as kernel and it will work with stock and have recovery too. Use the blue coloured "Download Now" button and the extension of file is .elf.

hello. i recently purchased lg g2. its back cover says d802 but on the inside it says d801/d803. so first idk what model it actually is. can u please help me figure out its model?

secondly after a firware upgrade through lg pc suite it got stuck on lg logo and wont move forward. it can enter download mode. idontknow much about software programming so i seeked help. i took it to repairs but the guy said someone flashed the wrong rom into ur phone as we cant determine which model it actually is so now you have to purchase new IC for your phone. so rom flashing wont fix the problem now i guess. please help me out whether i really have to change the ic or it can be solved through software fix. i would be really thankful for ur help.

Hey, guys. I just flashed the CM 12 Lollipop, but I am not quite sure if I can install Xposed as well. Please, help me out because I need a module to deactivate the proximity sensor...:crying:
[LG Optimus G (International)] baltics:
You can.
[LG Optimus G (International)] PharrellVP:
Okay, but which one? Please, post me a link to thread or some?
[LG Optimus G (International)] MZO:
Latest one from their repository. But as XPOSED doesn't support simple installation way on LOLLY so you'll have to flash a zip after you install Xposed. The instructions will be there. I used it and it works fine

Hit THANKS if I help, or you like my post!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] jchoco:
Hi guys,

I have been given a corporate phone from my company therefore I am selling my O2 XDA Exec.

It is in mint condition. I bought it from a second hand shop in London (C.E.X) on the 11/11/2006. It is under warranty in this shop until the 11/11/2007.

The package is the following:

- O2 XDA Exec (Unlocked)

- Charger and USB Cable

- O2 Manual + O2 Cd

- Spare Stylus

- Case (the one included in the retail box)

- One SD Card 1 Go (Non brand)

- One SD Card 2 Go (Sandisk Ultra II)

The device is currently installed with Windows Mobile 6, but I can sale it with the initial O2 Rom (just let me know which one you want).

I am not looking to ship the device so I am living in London so I would prefer doing the sale in London hand to hand.

My price is £180 for the package described above. I really need to sell it as soon as possible.

So please if you are interested or if you have a question you can send me a private message.

Thank you

Julien
[AT&T LG G3] motcher41:
OK. So I have flashed back to stock many times and taken the LP OTA. Never had an issue. Just started up first run went through it and hit update when I was ready. Instant OTA showing available for download. Now since I restored to stock again and and now the OTA will not show. Tried the return to stock several times and ATT shows no issue with their update service. Even though I am on Straight Talk and not AT&T they were nice enough to try and work through the problem without success.

Just wondering if anyone else has run into not getting the OTA suddenly and had taken it before.

Thanks.

[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olivercervera:
Hi All,

I just got a new 32GB microSD card, and I'm trying to create a partition via TWRP to install apps on it.

I am on 4.4.4, tried with both TWRP official and unofficial (2.8.5.0), tried with EXT3 and EXT4

Partitioning SD Card...
Removing Partition Table...
Creating FAT32 partition...
Creating EXT partition...
E: Unable to locate sd-ext partiton

Any hints? Thanks
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olivercervera:
Okay, fixed using a PC with EaseUS Partiton Master, and I created an EXT3 partition which is successfully mounted by Link2SD.

However via recovery I'm still unable to create an EXT3/4 partition.
[Sony Xperia E1] xezrunner:
Due to the Xperia E1 having only 512MB RAM, Sony added a line inside build.prop that disables some features in Android so that the phone won't be running slow. If we change the value of the line from true to false, it will re-enable the disabled features and lockscreen widgets will come back.

Steps:

1. Download an advanced file manager from Play Store (Root Browser)

2. Go to /system and open build.prop with the text editor.

3. Search for the line

ro.config.low_ram=true

4. Change the value 'true' to 'false'

ro.config.low_ram=false

5. Reboot
[Sony Xperia E1] Kizoky:
The swipe lockscreen is software bug, or It can be solved with tinkering with build.prop?
[Sony Xperia E1] G.Pawar:
Can't work in my xperia e1 dual

If I Help You Then Say Thanks
[Sony Xperia E1] xezrunner:
I tried to set stuff in build.prop, but it still did not work, so I believe it is some kind of software bug, or Sony added something else ( a security certificate thing or something ) that disable the options.
[Sony Xperia E1] xezrunner:
That's very unfortunate to hear. Did you do it with Root Browser, or were you using something else? I myself have tried editing build.prop with Root Explorer but it did not work. Root Browser seems to work correctly, or you can also do it using adb push\pull.
[Sony Xperia E1] G.Pawar:
OK I will try
[Sony Xperia E1] 7Zero3:
No there is no security certificate or software bug. do you use the the single sim (D2005, D2004) or dual sim (D2105, D2104) variant of the e1?

for me it's working
[Sony Xperia E1] xezrunner:
I have a D2005 with 20.0.A.1.21 right now (reinstalled JB for reasons) but this was working last time on 20.1.A.2.13.
[Sony Xperia E1] 7Zero3:
Okay then it can be a bug on jelly bean. I can not test now because I can not make a backup of my KitKat firmware. otherwise I would now switch to the Jelly Bean firmware
[Sony Xperia E1] Kizoky:
The Lockscreen bug only occurs in KitKat, JB is fine. They rushed KK fast on this phone. I regret that day when I bought this phone.

VPN does not work either. Sony does not release Device tree, nor add AOSP support for this phone, so we can't fix it ourselves.
[Sony Xperia E1] image45:
How many devices are affected by this bug please? My E3 on the new 4.4.4 version does not have this issue for example.
[Sony Xperia E1] xezrunner:
Only the Xperia E1 with KitKat has this issue. They decided to just quickly make the KK for the E1 and didn't care about the bugs (most likely).
[Sony Xperia E1] image45:
There was an updated 4.4.2 build the .14 that states to improve camera stability in a members post. Does anyone know if the screen lock bug is still present. Sony developer world Emma is only flashing the 20.1.A.2.13 build number on unlocked bootloader devices at the moment, however it's advising that the first 4.4.2 .47 build is the latest available version whenever it checks for new updates. I have not seen a 20.1.A.2.14 ftf file for xperia flasher yet.
[Sony Xperia E1] xezrunner:
Using XperiFirm you can get any of the firmwares you wish. And no, all the firmwares are buggy. Even the Dual versions. Also it's not just the lockscreen bug, it's VPN and overall system stability that's broken.
[Sony Xperia E1] image45:
I have not seen that normally a link to Google drive is posted for example that allows you to download an ftf file of the new build. Not many appear to use Sony Emma, or discussions are low on using this tool.

I was trialing a Z3 style unlock screen and got stuck without been able to get the swipe to Unlock option back. I had to use the philz recovery that K4sh provided for forum E1 users to get back to normal.
[Sony Xperia E1] xezrunner:
If you want to get Swipe to unlock back, you can just simply sync your phone with your Google account (gmail), set up a pattern, go to lockscreen, type in pattern wrong 5 times, select Forgot pattern, type in your creditnals, then exit out from the thing that appears. Then lock the device and see for yourself.
[Sony Xperia E1] image45:
So there are workarounds but no current fix.

Is XperiaFirm another program tool or a site? I have visited the sony developer world site, however it does not seem to have any ftf files for the Xperia flasher.
[Sony Xperia E1] xezrunner:
XperiFirm is a tool for downloading Xperia phones' firmwares, even from different countries. It downloads FILESETS or if unpacked by the tool, ftf contents which can be put together in Flashtool to an ftf file, then flashed to your device.

I sent an email regarding issues with the KitKat build to Sony, though I don't think they will care.
[Sony Xperia E1] Aryan Chaurasiya:
I tried but ist it's not working
[Sony Xperia E1] xezrunner:
Try writing ro.config.low_ram=false to the bottom of the file, then reboot and check Settings.

What tool did you use to edit the file?
[Sony Xperia E1] 7Zero3:
I have relocked it via Flashtool and I can't re-unlock it now. How can i unlock it now to flash Philz Touch Recovery?

Suggestion on how to fix bootloader unlock problem after relocking with flashtool

NOTE: THIS ONLY WORKS IF YOU HAVE DONE A TA BACKUP. ALWAYS DO A TA BACKUP BEFORE UNLOCKING THE BOOTLOADER

In this case you should try to restore your TA Backup and you should be able to re-unlock the bootloader. The TA Partition is one of the parts that control the unlocking of the bootloader and the other being aboot, rpm, sbl1, tz, dbi.

Well, i already solved this issue by flashing this Relock bootloader with flashtool.

check your status now "Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status" If it says No("No" doesn't mean to stop you), you can try to unlock your bootloader again by flashtool refer to the first page, and check your rooting status again.

[Verizon LG G3] cptkamikaze07:
As stated in the title.... I hope I'm not asking too much of any of the great devs on our device but would it be possible to modify the 23b kernel to support Cloadyfa's international ROM?

Prior to jumping on the stock lollipop ROM I was running his 1.2 ROM and got rid of that nagging little "unknown SIM card" icon in the status bar... I would greatly appreciate it if someone could do this for me ( or community) or lead me in the proper forum??

Thanks in advanced!!!
[Verizon LG G3] bweN diorD:
the only way that would work is if cload's rom were stock verizon lollipop based, in which case, i dont understand why there would be a rom posted with no kernel.

maybe im just missing something, im not familiar with his rom.
[Verizon LG G3] cptkamikaze07:
Reason I even mentioned this was because with his kitkat (1.2 build), all that was needed for it to flash on the vs985 was a modified kernel. Otherwise it will enter a bootloop. I was hoping the same would apply with his lollipop build (2.1). I just can't stand the noncustomisability that pure, carrier stock has... I like having the circle battery mod with percentage and my time in the center of the status bar along with a nav bar height of 30px...

Lollipop is nice and smooth, I just want customisablity. Hopefully someone could chime in on this. I would be completely grateful for the work!
[Verizon LG G3] bweN diorD:
ahh, ok that seems logical.

maybe the best course of action would be to find out how they fixed the kk kernel. then propose it to a dev like, "this is how they fixed the kk kernel, can you please do it to the L kernel"

maybe more likely to help if they knew what to fix.

just a suggestion.

sorry, im unable to help myself.
