[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jb-kun:
Hey guys, I didn't find any good answers in threads for me, so I expose my troubleshooting.

For now 2 months, my Huawei y300 is bricked (green screen with red and blue rectangles), cause I flashed a wrong kernel :/. So I can't go in recovery or fastboot mode, just download mode. I tried to put the stock rom from sdcard (UPDATE.APP) but the installation abort at 1/3.

I don't know what can I do, and JTAG Box like the Riff Box are a little bit too expensive... Any help, please ? :rolleyes:

(I'm french, sorry for my bad english)

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chemantryg:
My wife has a Nexus 7 (2012) on which I recently sideloaded the 5.1 update. We updated it to try to avoid some of the wi-fi connection and battery life issues. Since the update, the tablet will not come out of sleep when the power button is pressed. If I press the power button for about 10 seconds the tablet reboots and will work although it is quite laggy.

Has anyone else experienced this with their N7?

Thanks
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ManHands:
I just recently started fresh by unlocking and flashing LMY47D image. I'd like to upgrade to LMY47E and preserve data. I know I can backup/restore via TIBU, but I'd rather avoid that if possible. Am I overlooking anything by performing only the following commands? Also worth noting is that I'd like to retain TWRP and franco.Kernel.

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash cache cache.img

At this point I'd use the hardware buttons to reboot into TWRP, flash su.zip, and then boot system.

I'm definitely going to perform a nandroid prior to doing this. However, just curious if this is the best way to do this or is there a better method. Or if there are any risks involved that I'm overlooking.

EDIT: Success... everything went just as planned. Thanks for everyone's help.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Its exactly correct. alternative is flashing a rooted stock ROM. Zip from recovery
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] y2whisper:
From what I've read you may need to flash twrp again even though you didn't flash the stock recovery. Just a heads up
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Only if you boot android before rooting. Install-recovery.sh is suppled with the ROM that upon boot will install stock recovery. However flashing SuperSU hijacks this script for its own purposes, removing its ability to flash recovery. So trick is flash the ROM, boot straight to recovery and flash SuperSU
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] y2whisper:
Ah. Good to know
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ManHands:
Yeah, thought about going the rooted stock ROM route. Just feel more comfortable with the factory image. Any truth to [MENTION=329751]y2whisper[/MENTION] comments? Doesn't make sense to me how TWRP would get overwritten by stock recovery if it's not flashed.

EDIT: See your post above (I took too long typing). Thanks for clarifying.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Have a look above.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moporoco:
I use this without losing data, but perhaps this is overkill? I assume you can skip the recovery to avoid losing TWRP, but I don't know about the kernel.

{replace with actual file name}

Enable USB Debugging and OEM Unlock

Reboot into bootloader (vol-down + power) or adb reboot bootloader

fastboot flash bootloader {bootloader-shamu-xxx.img}

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash radio {radio-shamu-xxx.img}

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot erase cache

fastboot flash cache cache.img

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Sorry my fault...I didn't notice it didn't say boot.img in OP. Yes kernel should be flashed
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ManHands:
Interesting... do I need to flash boot.img from LMY47E factory image if I'm using latest franco.Kernel? Seems silly to flash factory boot.img if I'm going to use franco boot.img instead. Thanks for the help fellas.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
You're best off using a kernel that fully supports 5.1. I have no idea about Franco.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] holeindalip:
Look at the op on Franco's thread and you'll have your answer
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
If he looks in the Franco thread, it will answer his question about having to flash a stock boot.img?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Forerunner326:
Why do you prefer to erase the cache then flash the new one? Does this really matter as long as userdata.img does not get flashed?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] holeindalip:
Brain fart, for future reference Franco r1-r19 is 5.0,5.0.1,5.0.2 and r20+ is for 5.1
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ManHands:
Thanks for the input everyone. To follow-up, I took the steps just as I planned in OP. No need to flash boot.img as frano-r20 is what I'm running and is compatible with 5.1 (despite the build # difference). I also didn't want to encrypt as the factory boot.img will force encrypt.

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash cache cache.img

And just as [MENTION=2872010]rootSU[/MENTION] pointed out, prior to booting system, go into TWRP from bootloader to install su.zip first (otherwise factory recovery will overwrite TWRP). Then boot system, and you're back in business. Just had to re-do a couple build.prop edits, but everything else was as it was before.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lamenting:
If I'm stock 5.1 rooted LMY47D with the modified boot.img without forced encryption (from here), can I just..

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash cache cache.img

then reboot into TWRP, flash SuperSU, reboot and go about my day?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ManHands:
That, or you can wait for 47E factory boot.img that's non-enforcable. But, from the sounds of it people are still able to use the 47D boot.img linked in the post you provided. I'd imagine there's not much difference between the two.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moporoco:
I have no idea honestly, I saw someone else post it that way. It is probably not necessary.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Forerunner326:
After flashing the files in fastboot you said to use the hardware buttons to boot into TWRP. How exactly did you go from fastboot to TWRP? Did you just power off while in fastboot or something else?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ManHands:
Use the volume buttons to select Recovery. Then the power button to boot into TWRP.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Forerunner326:
This menu is still available while flashing images correct?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ManHands:
Correct.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GrillMouster:
I have LMY47D, rooted, stock, stock kernel, TWRP. I'm interested in fastboot flashing to LMY47E, since I'm on Verizon. It's my understanding that both builds share the same bootloader and kernel. I see people flashing everything, including boot, bootloader, and cache. Wouldn't it be enough for me to simply flash the E build's radio and system? Of course, I'd go straight to TWRP immediately afterward and flash SU to keep root.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ManHands:
Bootloader my be the same, but are you sure about the kernel? My question would be, what's the harm? You could probably get away without flashing cache, and if you run into FC issues, clear cache in TWRP. However, personally I'd still flash all three on top of radio and system and call it a day.

Hi I recently updated my samsung glalaxy s4 active to the official lollipop 5.0.1 update. So it's cool and everything but some of games are crashing (Unfortunately

game has stoppes) each time I open each one of them. I tried to reinstall, clear cache and data but still nothing so I just wanted to know if I am the only one who facing this problem or is it general. And if it's me then how could I fix it

[Moto X Q&A] xdoza:
Hi, i'm planning to buy a Moto X 1st gen (2013), but i'm confused about the different models and which will be better or has best LTE band support.

I see some XT1053 advertise as Developer Editions GSM unlocked and also some XT1060 advertise too as Developer Edition unlocked, but sometimes I also see that are advertise as AT&T and/or Verizon versions.

As I'm planning to buy this phone in the US but not using there, are both of them gsm and bootloader unlocked? Which one of them is better? I need at least band 4 support (1700/2100); band 28 would be great, but i think none of these moto x support it.

Thanks in advance, hope my question is clear!
[Moto X Q&A] Saythis:
If I recall the XT1060 is made for VZW (CDMA with GSM LTE) while the XT1053 is made for networks such as AT&T and T-Mobile (GSM with GSM LTE).
[Moto X Q&A] xdoza:
Thanks for your response!

So despite being called gsm unlocked, the xt1060 will not work with any gsm carrier in the world? Or the xt1060 is in fact more complete and will work with all gsm's (like xt1053) plus some cdma carriers?

Thanks in advance!
[Moto X Q&A] Sirmeili:
I know this thread is a bit old, but I have an xt1053 (t-mobile version). Will this work on Verizon for calls and data?
[Moto X Q&A] DrvLikHell:
Read more closely, your answer is above. Verizon uses CDMA, the 1053 does not have CDMA bands.
[Moto X Q&A] Sporatica:
~Pleeeeze~ Need Reliable XT1060DEV Power/Volume Ribbon Cable

I had a stroke on the 30th and for some reason thought it was a good idea to disassemble my Moto X, 32Gb XT1060DEV. Long story short, I need the volume/power ribbon cable and can't find an appropriate replacement unit anywhere. Any and/or all help is greatly appreciated. I am at total loss as to where I can order a quality ribbon cable.
[Moto X Q&A] DrvLikHell:
I replaced the fried rear camera in my XT1053 with a part from an eBay seller called bonfireradios. The camera was used but it works great and takes excellent pictures. I checked and they currently have a power / volume flex cable for $6 total. It's the same part for all versions of the 1st gen Moto X. Hope this helps.

On a side note, If you cracked the edges of your battery cover like I did while taking the phone apart, I know of a another eBay seller that sells brand new OEM white "crosshatch" battery covers that match the Dev Edition perfectly, with the exception of the "Developer Edition" engraving.

No you do NOT have to unlock your bootloader (because it is not a custom ROM) but you can only flash it if you already have an open recovery (TWRP, Philz Touch Recovery etc.)

btw you can install any input language on android ;)
[Xperia Z2 General] aofathy:

[Xperia Z2 General] samuraix21:
Would this work for any Z2 in all regions? I brought my Z2 from expansys and apparently mine is based in Germany by Vodafone.

I have a TWRP backup if something goes wrong but I like to know if there will be any other complications that my 4.4.4 stock backup can't fix. Thanks in advance.
[Xperia Z2 General] hush66:
You just have to ensure that your phone is D6503, not D6502.

And as far as I know, recovery isn't working on Lollipop yet. So once you flash this, you won't be able to easily restore your KitKat backup, unless you downgrade to KitKat ROM and go through the process of rooting and installing recovery.
[Xperia Z2 General] cryogenix:
would you be so kind to detail what you did in order to achieve dual recovery? did you use prf creator?

[Xperia Z2 General] o0 Matt 0o:
Fyi if you want to get back to 4.4 and you have an unlocked bootloader all you need to do is flash the 4.4 boot.img (with recovery), boot into recovery and restore your backup.

Obviously the phone will bootloop if you try and boot it.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VogonCaptain:
Hi,

I have successfully installed bootZ3monxtest01.img and CM12 nightlies for my Z3, and the android experience itself is fine and without issues...

however, I have several issues regarding my recovery:

- reboot to recovery feature from android never works, I have to boot cold (from power down first), and it only works when I enter a cable during boot and press the 'up' button.

- no matter whether I install TWRP, CWM or CM own's solution, the CM version seems to be installed after a normal reboot. The feature "Update Cyanogen recovery" in Developer options is disabled though

- attempts to update android OTA fail, and do not even begin. Updating from recovery is the only thing that works for now.

(and that's unrelated to having to changing the device name from 'z3' to 'D6653' in the updater script, which still appears to be necessary).

I imagine I've done something wrong regarding installation of recovery, or perhaps something in earlier stages... but I really don't know what (and didn't have any issues following installation howto's)

Anybody know what's wrong for me?

Kind regards,
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CJ900RR:
Hi. I had the same problem with CM12. I think I read somewhere that it's a bug in cm recovery. It's just not working as it should.

I used flashtool to revert back to kitkat, rooted, flashed dual recovery, restored drm keys and then updated to rooted Lollipop. That was the only way.

Edit: don't forget to relock you're bootloader.
