I formatted data, and now i can at least transfer files to the device. I've reflashed the stock firmware, but i still get no signal. Minor graphical artifacts are still peresent :mad:
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hellcat50:
Seems to be a bootloader issue ?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lauriz7:
What's the solution then? flash another bootloader via fastboot (if yes, which)?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost101:
XT1032 Retail Brazil Firmware Image includes motoboot.img - that is the only 5.0.2 XT1032 Bootloader available.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lauriz7:
When you flash the ROM, doesn't it also reflash bootloader? Or do i have to do it manually via fastboot?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost101:
You gave to use fastboot.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
The bootloader will not flash if you are trying to flash an older bootloaer than the one on the phone.

I believe the latest bootloader for the xt1032 is 41.18 (lollipop).
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lauriz7:
I flashed firmware manually in fastboot mode, and now i have bootloader v.41.18. I still don't get any signal

Also, i was trying to connect to mobile network (In Settings) and I saw "E" (edge) icon with roaming icon, and exclamation mark afterwards. It lasted for about 15 secs and i have never been able to connect to any network since. :(

Completely dead radio?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Does you phone have the correct imei? Use the dial pad to check by dialling *#06#.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lauriz7:
Yes it does. I also confirmed that other SIM cards don't work.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Did you flash stock 4.4.4?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lauriz7:
Can i downgrade to 4.4.4? I've heard some issues about bootloader and etc. and risk of bricking it.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost101:
[MENTION=4693367]Lauriz7[/MENTION] - did you do the following fastboot commands:

mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

mfastboot erase modemst1

mfastboot erase modemst2

mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn​
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
You can downgrade, you just can't flash the motoboot file.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lauriz7:
I performed the commands. And i have also flashed stock 4.4.4 now - No signal. Screen flicker is still present.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlIfQqpwhLE
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Screen flicker will always be present unless you flash a stock lollipop ROM.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lauriz7:
Well, the screen flicker was also present in the stock ROM, and it's also in the recovery sometimes. But regarding the radio issue, has anyone else experienced sudden loss of network signal? I suppose it's hardware failure...
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost101:
People have lost and regained IMEI before.

[Source]

Something to be aware of is that fastboot is really not user-friendly at all. Commands that appear to have been successful may not have been. I would not be confident that fastboot flashing the entire stock firmware image has failed to solve the issue until: I've tried both fastboot and mfastboot on at least two different computers, in both windows and linux.

Another option might be to try a few custom ROMs, starting with CyanogenMOD.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lauriz7:
But i do get IMEI number. So maybe the problem is not the same?

I'll try some other custom ROM's, but i'm getting tired of flashing ROM's w/o any success :(:confused:
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost101:
Apologies. Any chance you could get a brand new SIM just to rule that out as a reason?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lauriz7:
I tried my friend's SIM (working on his phone) and it doesn't work either. One strange thing is, that my operator is using Telenor network, but with my SIM card inserted i only see the TDC network but can't connect to it. When my friends card is inserted, which uses TDC network, i can't see TDC network anymore.

Is it worth trying to heat the mainboard, cause i can't see any other possible fixes. :confused:
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost101:
I would exhaust all software options first. Another idea might be converting to GPE - which has a different partition table, kernel and radio. You could convert back to Motorola Stock afterwards.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lauriz7:
I tried the 4.4.4 GPE, and it didn't went so well. Process com.android.phone was crashing constantly so i couldn't operate phone. But i could see that there wasn't any signal. I accidentally turned airplane mode on and i couldn't turn it off afterwards (it was marked grey). I reverted to 5.0.2 Lollipop and I will probably try heating up the mainboard.

Also, i tried to attempt emergency call and it was successful. So the radio is maybe not completely dead, but then i'm lost if this is hardware or software problem.

[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xFreddy:
Hello everybody. First thing first you should know that I am a noob. You will see why in the explanation of the problem. Then...

I have upgraded my moto g to lollipop via OTA (xt1032 8GB). Didn't like it so I tried to to downgrade to kitkat. Success, but I got the screen flickering problem so I was looking for a way to get back the previous bootloader. I even tried to flash to cwm recovery. And that is the point where I did the (probably) most stupidest thing. Thinking that I could flash back the stock rom, I've wiped out everything with cwm recovery. Now I'm stuck, have nothing in the moto g except the bootloader screen (41.18), I panicked and I flashed the stock recovery with the moto tool, but I think I've worsened everything. Now it's the time for laughing. Ok I deserve it. The question is: can I do something to get back my moto g? I don't care if with lollipop (I will keep it as long it works), I'm in total panic. Now even adb doesn't recognize the device.

Thanks for reading all of this. If you guys can help it would be wonderful (don't be afraid to ask something in return because I will do almost everything! :( ).

Greetings.

Freddy.

P.S. There are surely problems with my english. Sorry about that! :D

Ok found a topic (http://xdaforums.com/moto-g/general/unbrick-method-t2794271) about how to unbrick and following the procedure. Flashed the Philz recovery with success. Now I'm following the OP procedure. In a few minutes the results...
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xFreddy:
After a few tries and a lot of strange errors that I decided to ignore I've been finally able to get kitkat back!!! Ok the screen is flickering like before but it doesn't matter. Learned a lot of thinks and discovered lot of useful tools!

Bye!
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kieranc88:
Not a good idea to downgrade a moto g and your posting in the wrong forum , you need to post in the first gen forum your posting in the 2nd gen 2014 forum. I'd redownload the stock lollipop ROM and flash using fast boot

http://www.filefactory.com/folder/c6cdedc45a775d27 find the one that corresponds to your model and carrier and country.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xFreddy:
Thanks for the advice. In the end I've updated to lollipop because I was tired of all the "bugs" between the new bootloader and kitkat. Sadly I was unable to find a compatible version of the xposed framework, but I think I will just wait for the stable! :) .

Thanks again!

Freddy.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] EliteXen:
I'm obsessed with having the latest tech and greatest and my poor Magician is beginning to feel a bit too dated. I'm looking to upgrade to a new windows mobile device within the next couple months and I'd like to get some suggestions.

Points to consider:

I don't like, want, or need a keyboard. To me that's just unnecessary bulk. I am a graffiti master. (I won't rule out devices with keyboards as long as they don't add too much bulk)

This also means I want a device as small as the magician.

I hate smartphones, so no MotoQs, BlackJacks, etc.

I need QuadBand.

I'd like a speedy device, the faster the better, battery life is unimportant cause I rarely talk on my phone and I'm never far from a charger.

Wifi would be nice but not a deal breaker.

Other than that I'll take any suggestions.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] oltp:
Just bought a Hermes yesterday. Feels fast enough, same form-factor as my Magician (just a little thicker), quad-band, wifi etc. Must say I like the keyboard very much, although switching between characters, numbers & symbols could've been more intuitive.

Looks like all my favorite apps work very well on the Hermes too & I expect an official WM6 by HTC to be released soon. Course one can experiment today with all the marvelous developments being presented on the various boards.

Wish you a wise moment, cause when you're not in the position of trying & buying all the new devices it's a very hard decision to make.

Cheers, M

[SuperSU] nstewart22492:
Hello.

I'm having a problem using SuperSU 2.46. When I first installed it from Google Play it wouldn't work right but after reinstalling it, it worked fine until I rebooted my phone. After doing that it no longer prompted for root access. The only way I could grant root access was if I enabled root access for all apps without prompt and even after that my phone would freeze up after a while and I'd have to do a battery pull. Before I installed SuperSU, root access worked for most apps without a superuser prompt but I've found one or two apps on my phone that required superuser before enabling access to root features. The binary installation/update worked fine so I'm at a loss for what to do. I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling it several times.

My phone is an LG Ultimate 2 (lg l41c) running Android 4.4.2. I rooted it using towelroot. It does not have a recovery flashed as I have yet to find one designed for it. I thought that could be the problem but I'm not sure. As I said, most root capabilities worked before I installed a superuser app but it all ceases to work after rebooting my phone with SuperSU on it and the only way I can get it to work is by granting root access to all apps without prompt and even then my phone freezes and needs a battery pull. I'll take any help I can get.
[SuperSU] panosfast:
I have the same issues in my note 4 except the freezing part

Any idea for this?
[SuperSU] nstewart22492:
The problem seems to have solved itself. I installed SuperSU again today and everything seems to be going fine for now. I don't know what changed but I'll post again in the future if I run into any more problems.
[SuperSU] harmgsn:
Same problem happening here on a Galaxy S5 Active. I've reinstalled and even put 2.48 beta on it.

The strange thing is the "Apps" list remains blank the entire time. Log shows apps using root, but they never get added to the list and I have to default "grant" everything for apps to work (at least, the ones that will work with this half broken root).
[SuperSU] Frank Westlake:
I wonder if some userids got munged. Try this in a terminal:

find /data/data/eu.chainfire.supersu -exec stat -c %u {} \;

You should only get about three owner ids: 0; 1023(or other 4-digit); and only one 5 or more digit number for SuperSU.

Frank
[SuperSU] harmgsn:
Find and Stat command not found.
[SuperSU] Frank Westlake:
You can check the owner IDs in that directory with

If I got the path right -- it should be what I have in my previous message but I can't see it right now.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adoublearonn:
I'd like to start this thread as a "what to not do to brick your device" discussion. I've noticed a lot of people bricking randomly with the 5.1 update and not a lot of people talking about what causes it. Is it random? Did you flash certain files from a certain ROM or Google? Did you mix 5.0.1 boot/radio with a 5.1 ROM? Can we find a solution to fix bricked devices?

Any insight here to help others avoid this problem will be appreciated!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
read carefully and follow instructions, and all will be fine.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tasssadar:
I bricked mine by flashing older CM 12 ZIP which flashed 5.0.1 bootloader over 5.1 one, so I think that's the cause - the bootloader doesn't like being downgraded. Might even be a "security feature", now that I think about it - because "fastboot flash bootloader" won't even let you flash older bootloader than you already have.

That's rather deceiving, don't you think?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
whats deceiving? that somethings are messing things up in cm? what can i tell you, stay away from cm. i do. just because cm is messing things up? cm isnt android in general, its cm. they do things differently than aosp or stock android. i personally decided to stay as far away from cm years ago. anyways, i flashed 5.1, then reflashed 5.0.2, then flashed 5.1 again, all on the old bootloader, no issues. as long as you read about whats going on, and follow instructions properly, all will be alright.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Konfuzion:
When you upgrade to 5.1 the OEM Unlock (under dev options) automatically gets switched off (due to new security which prevents stealing a device and just flashing it bypass the security code). Where people are running into trouble is they are upgrading to 5.1 and the latest radio having OEM Unlock unchecked and then flashing CM which includes the old radio and bootloader, at this point you are stuck. Can't flash a custom recovery because your bootloader is locked, can't unlock the bootloader because you have to boot into an os and check the OEM Unlock, and you can't do a system restore because you cannot access recovery.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZombieUsr:
For me. I came from a 5.0.2 ROM. Flashed the newest radio and boot for 5.1 and flashed a 5.1 ROM. I DO SHOW an unchecked OEM unlock. So am I to assume if I wished to flash a 5.0.2 ROM to check OEM unlock? I don't think I will "downgrade"...but just curious. Thank you.
