Good day

I was trying to update my 2014 Moto G XT1068 from (Kitkat) 4.4.4 to 5.0.2 (Lollipop)

from following this link

http://xdaforums.com/moto-g-2014/general/official-lollipop-indian-ota-captured-t3002674

Now forgive cause I am new to rooting etc, when I did try and root the phone using the global firmware, my sim was disable. So I decided to use differnet firmware with resulted in sim card not getting signal. So I end up using the Brazilian update for the firmware, and ended up having the phone in AP Fastboot Flash Mode with the error is " Error Failed to Validate System Image"

I have tried using different firmware to get back the phone to work, but to no luck, I am asking what steps can I take now to try and fix my problem.

Has anyone seen this before (windows mobile 2005 on htc wizard (xv6700) and i think i'm on aku2 (whatever the last verzion official update was)). My unread email count is currently at 2 unread messages however when i go to look for the messages there are not any unread messages in my inbox (nor anywhere for that matter).

I am also having this problem on my T-Mobile Wing - it came up about 2 weeks after I got it, and then was fixed when I did a hard reset (obviously) but just came back again last night.

Both times, I show 1 unread email in my Outlook email account - no problems with my other POP3 accounts. The 1 unread shows both on my Today screen and in the Folder view of the Messaging app.

I don't know if this is related, but I have also noticed that sometimes email which has been deleted will appear again as unread messages following a soft reset. it would be interesting to know where this information is stored.

I have wandered around in the registry a little bit, looking for anything that might relate, but didn't have any luck.

Great work to everyone who found this method! Was super easy and took about 5 minutes.
[Sprint LG G3] br0adband:
Confirmed where, and by whom, exactly? I've done this root method a dozen or more times so far in the past two weeks on several devices and not had one instance of any issues, there are no unwanted malware apps installed on said devices, no screwy services running that shouldn't be there or exist at all, and so on.

Looking over the lg_root.sh script offers nothing that can be installed on the device OR on Windows so that's a wash there too.

You sure your machine wasn't just basically pooched to begin with 'cause there's really nothing in this method that can screw up a Windows installation...

If i hold down "vol down" and power, i get get the recovery mode, but cannot get to this download mode. searches make is seem like im the only one with this issue.

... then i changed a setting on the camera. and it crashed. would never open again.

And randomly the phone would freeze. have to pull the battery.

The final straw was using it for my drone. I had read up this was stable, fast, and much better blah blah. I tried flying my DJI mavic pro drone with it this afternoon and it froze up 4 times, crashed 4 times. Im done. As soon as i got home TWRP restored.

[Verizon LG G2] polak87:
Hello guys,

i bricked my vs980 and now i need help.

Here is the story.

I was on 4.4.2 ROM. i installed towelroot and rooted phone. Then i downloaded autorec for vs980 to install twrp. After reboot all i can see on phone are colorful lines. Phone wont boot to OS (after few seconds it auto reboots). I have no download mode or fastboot mode. ALL i have is twrp installed, but i cant see anything on screen (anythinkg usefull - only those multi-colored lines). In twrp i can enter sideload mode.

When i enter sideload mode i see i adb my phone and it says im in sideload mode. So using adb i can install something (at least i think so).

Is it possible to unbrick my phone or is it totally lost?

I think i would need to somehow install original partitions on it using adb sideload.

I dont know how. i tried installing some roms, no success. Still phone wont boot to OS. I propably messed something with partitions when i was trying to unbrick it.

I tried installing kernel KK_Kernel_VS980_jdi, it doesnt help.

Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance.

// edit

Restoring download mode would be good. I would flash kdz then. But no idea how to do it having adb sideload only :(

//edit 2

I managed using sideload to flash 26a bootskatck and xdabbeb 2.3.0 rom. Then i flashed KK_Kernel_VS980_jdi which should repair those white lines. Now in recovery i still have all those lines (cant see anything on screen), but phone boots to OS. In OS, there are some lines but i can see everything on the screen (KK_Kernel_VS980_jdi helped). I guess now i need to restore download mode. But how?

//edit 3

I restored dl mode using zip from xdabbeb 2.3.0 thread and managed to install 24a using kdz method. It partiallly repaired phone - there are some lines, but according to info found on net they will disappear after some time (24h approx).

Rafal.

Hello,

I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 which I want to put a different ROM on but is there a way to image the phone prior to placing the new ROM and restoring it if necessary?
[XDA Assist] Heisenberg:
Hi :)

Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. You can make a backup of your stock ROM by utilising the Backup feature in your custom recovery (CWM, TWRP). You can also restore the backup you made by utilising the Restore feature in that recovery.

Hello,

I am not sure what you mean by that, is there a link to a tutorial? I have searched on Google but I have only found one that makes .apk file through Developer Tools and that's it. Not sure if that is the ROM but I doubt that it is.

If the directions here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3030327 don't work for applying the update . I'd flash the TOT.

If you have twrp installed make sure to reinstall the stock recovery. The update zip cannot correctly flash its updater script. The stock recovery can due so, so I would install it.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HDxDaniel:
The eight cores of the octa core version doesn't work together, right? So the phone uses sometimes the 1.3gz cores and when he need it uses the 1.9ghz cores. The question is, can I force the phone to use the 1.9ghz cores only, instead of using the other four slower cores?

And why Samsung creates an Octa core cpu if the eight cores can't work together? For improving battery life?

(sorry for my English)

Hello everyone, I have a SM-G900A (Samsung Galaxy S5 ATT Model) Ok so it had 4.4.4 version of android on it. I wanted to put 4.4.2 on it so I could use towel root to root it.

Ok so from then I added the ap, csc, and cp. Odin looks like its installing right. So now when the phone starts it looks like its doing an update.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] verge:
That icon goes with the vibrate mode of the CommButton-Toggle-Vibrate-Fix.CAB. This is the program that switches between vibrate and ring if you hold down the comm button. You will probably need to download and reinstall that application to obtain normal functionality.

Imo it'd be best to wait for Samsung and AT&T to release the official lollipop update for your specific device. Unless a developer builds a custom lollipop rom for the AT&T model.

Flashing another rom from another device/carrier can easily lead to a very very expensive paper weight.
