I flashed the stock firmware onto my phone, and all was going well until it turned itself off. It then rebooted into Download Mode, and got itself stuck on 'Firmware Update'. I pulled the battery, rebooted and it went from the LG logo straight to the Firmware Update screen. I've tried going into recovery (which works, but pressing yes OR no still takes it to Firmware update. Going into download mode doesn't work either.

I tried to re-flash it using the LGFlashTool, but my PC can't find the phone in this state. I bought it off a guy on eBay 4 months ago, and it worked fine until the first sentence of this post happened.

EDIT: it's the international D855. The Firmware Update screen says '910K B0 QEM'
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itsbighead:
Thats not actually right

Booting into recovery normally should factory reset the phone. Would you be able to post a picture of the firmware update screen
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Galilwithit:
I tried it then. When I do it, I get the normal 'No (Exit)' and 'Yes' and then the same thing to confirm it. It then goes to the LG logo, and boom! Firmware Update!

I don't have a camera (stupid, I know) but, if you boot into download mode, it looks just like the screen there. Except it shows '910K B(0-99) QEM' in the update box thingo.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Webster200x:
Hi, i have the exactly same problem, even if i try to power up the device normally or in download more it goes directly in to firmware update. Any way to fix it or install LGE MTP Driver so my PC will see my phone in order to flash it again?

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Assaph93:
I have run into the same problem like you guys. I recently updated my phone and it started to malfunction with resets, crashing and eventually got it stuck in boot loop. Then it booted into a green screen that said "demigod crash handler/tz crash" thrice. Instead of a hard reset I decided to using the lg mobile support tool to fix it. During the upgrade recovery my phone went into download mode/firmware update. I could see the progress bar moving and then get stuck and my mobile would switch off. Took out the battery, disconnected and reconnected the phone and tried the process all over again but in vain. I repeated this at least 8 times and eventually gave up. Now my phone is basically useless and only boots into firmware update. Hard reset doesn't work either. Can somebody please help me fix this?

910k b0 qem

I tried to flash TOT file and it kept failing around 10%. I read somewhere that I should select the "Flash Board" option so I did. This also failed and left my phone booting to "Firmware Update" screen with following text in the gray box at the bottom.

910K B0 QEM

Windows no longer recognizes the devices and fails to install drivers.

I believe that what is required here is the "910K resistor flash cable"

This is with the leaked official t-mobile wm6 rom. I can scroll through the messages just fine but clicking on one to view it just makes the screen blank, and replying to a message or compsing a new message just shows a blank screen as well (except the menu items seem to be there but not functioning).

Up until a few hours ago this was working perfectly, is this possibly a glitch with the program itself? Could someone upload the txtman.exe program so I could try and replace it?

Dont wanna to hard reset thinking there are someone could help to solve this.

(The method I tried it myself and it works perfectly and does not cause any problems, however I am not responsible of damage to your phone)​

* REQUIREMENTS:

-Unlocked Bootloader

-Firmware T-Mobile 4.4.4 download

-RSD Lite

-ADB & Fastboot drivers

-Notepad++

*INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Download firmware T-Mobile 4.4.4 and extract all zip files.

2. Open the file RETAIL-US_4.4.4_KXA21.12-L1.29.1_2_cid9_CFC_1FF.xml with Notepad++ (preferably) or editor text.

3. Delete lines:

<step operation="getvar" var="max-download-size" />
<step operation="flash" partition="partition" filename="gpt.bin" MD5="76e5f85606012c083d46f37425c441b1" />
<step operation="flash" partition="motoboot" filename="motoboot.img" MD5="2b664024c8a421245b814e3b7c4c5077" />

4. Save the file and open RSD Lite and upload the edited file in RSD Lite.

5. Turn off the phone and put it into fastboot mode and connect to PC. When RSD Lite recognizes the device and indicate that you are connected press START to realize the downgrade.

6. Wait until the phone reboots and have Android 4.4.4 KitKat back. :good: :)

attached the modified xml file, just change the extension .txt to .xml

IMPORTANT: Do not try to reinstall soak test lollipop, otherwise it may cause brick your phone.​
[Moto X General] athulele:
Isn't this dangerous to do so?

You're skipping the gpt.bin and motoboot which may cause issues with KitKat and skipping these and later upgrading by any OTA has resulted in some bricked devices.

I don't think this is a good idea.
[Moto X General] hbenz2008:
I believe there are enough warnings about this. This procedure is just ok if for whatever reason somebody wants to have all 4.4.4 but gpt and motoboot.

For any other upgrade or downgrade, anybody interested need to look really hard into it before flashing any isht.

So all good.
[Moto X General] KidJoe:
Since people STILL do it, even though it has the very real potential to BRICK phones, and/or cause other issues, I would say we STILL don't have enough warnings...

And we still have threads popping up like this -> http://xdaforums.com/moto-x/moto-x-qa/screwed-t3059954

In my opinion, EVERY post/thread advising people its "OK" or "Safe" to downgrade, should at least include warnings that bricking is possible, before any instructions are presented.

And we have seen threads suggesting to downgrade get locked/deleted

[Moto X General] demifalcon:
If you downgrade back to 4.4.4, will it be safe to upgrade once the official 5.0.2 comes out?
[Moto X General] scryan:
Errr, I'm not sure that everyone is going to re-style their posts to work optimally with your browser themes and modifications. It works fine with the standard browsers I checked... Problems on your end.

Kinda misleading to say this "causes no problems" when it will most likely brick any phone that gets an OTA after its done?

I get pretty annoyed how much we refuse to discuss downgrading and associated issues out of fear that people will be educated JUST enough to be dangerous... I'd still rather not rely on safety through ignorance and abstinence... But man it seems like your little red disclaimer should at least mention they have a good chance to ruin their phone if they take an OTA. (Still don't get why everyone here with unlocked bootloaders is so obsessed with OTAs, I have never had a modded phone where people would even consider taking OTAs... Always just wait for a safe flashable version, but apparently the moto x community is different *shrug*)
[Moto X General] ken1645:
I tried flashing with the gpt.bin and motoboot still in the XML file but get a "downgrade security detected" and it stops due to trying to downgrade. Is there a better way to flash back to 4.4.4 from 5.0.2?

Getting this when trying to flash gpt.bin: http://i.imgur.com/zkes3kJ.png

edit: I tried only removing the gpt.bin and getvar line and leaving the motoboot line in. Seems to be flashing and working.

I had a strange bug that the battery was stuck at 1% when I removed the motoboot command.

edit2: still having the 1% battery problem. Can't do anything :( :(

edit3: Trying a bold strategy... I replaced the gpt.bin file with the 5.0.2 version of it and flashed the rest of the 4.4.4 files. We'll see what that does. I'm perfectly fine with bricking my phone.

edit4: still getting 1% battery issue. Going to try making it die then fully charging.. Hopefully that will fix it..

Edit5: worked! Killing the battery made it figure out the %and now I'm back on soak test ghost .38. The OTA seemed to work fine both times it updated to 5.0.2 then to the updated soak test.
[Moto X General] athulele:
In this case, if you take an OTA, you'll most likely brick. But if you're fine with it,no problem. Although I don't advise you to do that.

if I have the soak test 5.0.2 retail US, I can do downgrade directly to retail brazil 4.4.4?

It looks like the files to edit are in Velvet.apk/res/drawable-xxxhdpi and drawable/xxhdpi and maybe others I'm not sure. I've learned how to edit the .9.png files to make everything more transparent but I'm still learning how to get it all put back together and installed properly.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KnifeSkills:
Hmm I dont remember what exactly I did (besides flashing it) to make it work..

I think my exact process to make it work was:

1. Download and switch to Nova Launcher (or any other launcher so you can remove stock one)

2. Backup and uninstall Google Now Launcher using Titanium Backup

3. Clear data of Google app through Settings > Apps

4. Reboot into recovery and flash it

Maybe somethings auto-updating in the play store back to a stock-colored version?

Mine looks like this after flashing

Get transparent, non persistent Google Search Bar

Three Steps Friends:)

1. Install Nova Launcher Free Version. No need to root your phone.

2. Go to widgets. Look for the "Quick Search Bar".

3. Use it. It'll show you the option of Google Search Bar as white-opaque, white-semi transparent and fully transparent. Choose fully transparent.

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imgoingtowin:
Where can I go to learn what the different options mean? For example it's hard to know if I should let an app use "Browser" if I don't even know what it means.

In the sub lists what do the items highlighted in red mean?

In the sub list what do the items in bold mean?

What is the difference between the two columns users can check?

Do all items on the list always get shown, even if the app doesn't use it? For example I installed a game that's permissions didn't include acdcess to media, so what would happen if I check media for the app in xprivacy?

[IMG="screen shot of using xprivacy for snapchat"]http://s2.postimg.org/914gjkj61/xda.png[/IMG]
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ticktock666:
For me it was trial and error, but you can read more here : https://github.com/M66B/XPrivacy#restrictions to understand what each permission stands for.

Red items are critical/expert items, some apps won't work if you deny them access to these permissions (by default these are enabled for all apps, you need to enable expert mode in the app to be able to edit them), for now I say stay away from them, once you feel more confident about the app you can start experimenting with them.

Tthe items in bold are permissions that the app asked for/tried to access (in your example it means that the app accessed/tried to access device camera yesterday)

Picking the left checkbox means denying that permission to the app, picking the right question mark (?) means that if the app asks for that permission, you will be notified with a pop-up window asking you what to do (allo/deny)

Not sure, but I use a personal template where every permission is auto-question marked, therefore whenever an app tries to access anything I get the small popup and I can decide what to do.

There's an "expert mode" checkbox in the permissions popup, if you enable that you'll be able to allow/deny app for a specific time (say 30 secs) which will allow you to test the effect of that decision on the app, so if it crashes, you can simply wait out the 30 secs and then relaunch the app again (this might require enabling the export mode in the app settings, not sure)

Please let me know if you have any more questions, or if my explanations sound like total nonsense to you, I have not eaten yet, and english in not my primary language after all :)
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imgoingtowin:
Ok thanks. Does Xprivacy some how show which permissions an app actually uses? What I mean by this is when you install an app it tells you which permissions it uses, for example Snapchat doesn't even request to use the browser. So in Xprivacy would it make a difference if I checked the option for Browser since Snapchat doesn't even use it in the first place?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ticktock666:
No, there's no prior notification from xprivacy which permissions each app uses.

Like I said I use a default template with everything on "ask" setting, the up side for this imo is if an update causes an app to request new permissions, they will be on "ask" setting already, so I won't have to recheck after each update.
