I updated my Nexus 6P to 6.0.1 on flashfire v0.27, and I can't connect my phone to my PC. When I plug in the cable, my phone charges but no notification comes up to let me choose MTP. My computer doesn't detect my phone either.

I uploaded my log here: http://puu.sh/ngPIK/df9fc60ba6

I rebooted to flash elementalX, so no last_ksmg.

Default setting when flashing OTA has Enable ADB and PTP mode for USB

For MTP mode you'll need to edit this file and reboot:

Figured this out for myself after posting this.

However FlashFire does its thing, it apparently doesn't have access to the external SDcard storage when it's actually trying to flash something. Copied the Gapps .zip to internal storage and it worked with no problem.

No idea, I've never tried it. I know flashfire does work flashing zips, and since flashfire can also flash firmware tars, OTA files, and modem and bootloader files (which flashify definitely cannot do), I've never felt the need to try zips with flashify

noob question

ok i am trying to get xposed framework working on a amazon fire 7 5th gen ,it had 5.1.1 i rooted it and installed flashfire and used it to flash resurrection remix rom, so iam to understand i need to install xposed-v*-sdk*-*.zip

so can i just install flashfire and flash just this zip? or do i need to flash everything all over again?the rom and gapps again? or i can just flash just the zip?

i installed the .apk for xposed framework but gives this error

"xposed is not yet compatible with android SDK version 22 or your processor acrhitecture 9armeabi-v7a)

can not link executable dependencies library "libdvm.so" not found﻿

so if uninstall the xposed app, install flashfire , use it to flash just the xposed-v*-sdk*-*.zip and then install XposedInstaller_3.0-alpha*.apk

it will work and not mess anything up?

or would i not even need to flash the zip?

sorry if this is off topic but the xposed thread is closed ,my amazon fire was updated to 5.1.1 so i have no TWRP recovery

Have run Flashfire multiple times, both just letting it figure out the steps, and choosing those same steps. It recognizes the Feb update OTA and says it is ready to flash. Gives the warning saying I may have changed partition details..I power past that and it appears to do it's thing. But still says JANUARY 1, 2016 under Android security patch level.

How have I fouled this up?

Oh...BTW. I had to VPN into UK server to get to euro Google Play to even find Flashfire in market. Doesn't show up in USA play store.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] rajkatiyar07:
First thing your device must be rooted , SuperSU installed and have a working recovery . This software allow users to choose the multiple zips to flash in one click, ultimately those files are flashed in recovery and automatically reboot to system. You dont need to enter manually in recovery and then choose options to flash.

Do you have recovery installed ? if yes then proceed otherwise dont.

Regarding soft brick, on starting the phone it stays on Samsung Galaxy S5 logo. I can successfully get in to Recovery (stock) and Download mode.

Just one note, I applied my Moto X Pure's security update this AM through FlashFire and all went well except for the embedded version of SuperSU that didn't detect I needed a systemless root install after applying the OTA. I suspect that's more to do with the embedded SuperSU than the app though (or maybe because system was mounted as R/W), perhaps worth a look into 2.67 (any variant), because 2.62-3 works perfectly. Other than that it was a pretty amazing process, kudos!

Hey jazzruby, unfortunately your solution has stopped working for me. I was able to connect via MTP as normal for a short period of time after I edited persist.sys.usb.config, and I didn't realize it stopped working until today. I double checked, and the "mtp" i added is still there. Is there any other way I can troubleshoot this?

Also, for some strange reason, MTP seems to work only when I'm in recovery mode.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] aboaboit:
There is no such directory, either under /sdcard or at root level. Thing is, I've already attempted to install the OTA once with TWRP already on the phone and it might be possible that the zip was removed after the reboot, perhaps. No idea.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Ch3vr0n:
Checked again. Check /system/cache. That's where it should be if it's still there. Ota's are downloaded into that folder.

Verstuurd vanaf mijn Nexus 7 met Tapatalk
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] aboaboit:
Thanks, downloaded the ota and saved the source link.

Of course now FF complains there is some mismatch and refuses to work. I thought it would be TWRP that's in the way but the log points to "boot" not being pristine, not surprising considering I have Systemless root.

I also have to find out why replacing TWRP with standard recovery gives me a red droid error. Luckily, the phone is able to boot normally and reflashing TWRP gives me a working recovery but I don't know what's wrong.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] aboaboit:
There is also no /system/cache, only /cache and it does not contain the OTA.

It's weird that it keeps notifying me of the downloaded OTA even though it's gone.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] corkiejp:
Flashfire is suppose to restore stock boot and recovery before flashing an OTA.

Looks like your stock boot backup was corrupted.

Maybe flash stock boot, re root and try again.

Alternatively just use flashfire to flash latest factory image.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Ch3vr0n:
/system/cache and /cache are one and the same I think. You pull up the system partition with your file browser (hence the /system) and navigate to the cache folder in it. Combine both and you get /system/cache. It's only natural that is not there since you've already applied it. The notification sound stop sooner or later.

When I installed Slim ROM on my Amazon Fire 7" 2015 the guide I followed used FF v0.24 and to check automount. Looking at the installation of CM 12.x it recommend version 0.27 and do not check automount. If I were to do a fresh install of SlimRom using v0.27 do I or do I not check automount as I would with v0.24?

In a nutshell for a noob, in what circumstance do you or don't you check automount?

Can Flashfire restore stock ROM from a device's powered off state like TWRP? i will assume no and can only boot up from within android os. So....................why even choose this over Titanium back up if someone only wants to back up their stock rom onto external sd?

I just lost my Hot Spot on my AT&T SGS5 when I upgraded to "unlimited data" and I was told to install this Recovery.

I am hesitant because the last update I have is 2014.

I am stock Rooted 4.4.2 KK with OTA and Knox frozen with Titanium Backup, and stock Recovery.

I am one of your paying customers and I trust the Chainfire brand.

My phone is super stable and I love it but I need my Hot Spot Back.

What do you think I should do?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Rakuu:
For starters not quote the OP. You shouldn't need this if youre on KK, just install safestrap and you should be able to flash a mod for it there, ID you dotn want to go the safestrap route then yes, this will work.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] UltraCon79:
Thanks! I look forward to Recovery.

Okay thanks for the info, and I didn't know I was quoting by default.

My next question is obvious being that I have been out of the loop since 2014.

Can anyone link me a flash able mod to my stock 4.4.2 AT&T Rom that I can install with this recovery? I see lots of Roms with tether from 2014, but I don't want to wipe my whole device.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] elektronaut0815:
Flashfire did not work for me. The notification for the downloaded OTA update is still shown, and the latest installed update remains the one from January. I installed the latest SuperSU update, in case that might be relevant. I'm not sure how to get the full log for the update process, using adb I got a log that just seems to end when Flashfire starts the update process? (Could not link the log paste here because I'm still a new user and don't know how to upload a zip.)

So, how did you guys get the full log?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] corkiejp:
Just use a file manager (eg ES File Manager) and navigate to the above locations, copy the logs to an easier location.

I had some trouble taking one OTA when I was testing FlashFire on my backup Nexus 5. I tried to install the OTA from MRA58K to MRA58N using the normal installation method. This failed, of course, since I did not have stock recovery or boot at the time. I think I also erased my cache at some point so /cache/update.zip did not exist. My phone still thought I had downloaded the OTA and would not retrieve it again, and FlashFire could not flash it since it didn't exist. (I think all of this would have failed anyway since IIRC, I had system root.)

You might want to check if /cache/update.zip exists.

To fix this, I used FlashFire to sort of reset where I was. I flashed stock system, boot, and recovery for MRA58N. Then I think I fastbooted TWRP, installed systemless SuperSU, and used FlashFire to return to stock recovery now that I had root again. My phone downloaded the OTA for MMB29K and I used FlashFire to go through 3 OTAs.

You also might be able to find the correct OTA update.zip file and put it in /cache.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Ch3vr0n:
Flashfire isn't anything like xposed either. Xposed is a framework which lets you use modules to alter the looks and behavior of Android. Flashfire is an app that sort of breaks down Android to the individual file level, extracts the ota, applies it and reboots the device. It can flash a full ROM but afaik only if it matches the current ROM. A recovery like twrp can install a completely new ROM after it wipes the system partition, flashfire can't wipe the system partition it can only wipe data and related partitions.

Verification on flashing upon xposed and rooted sm-g920f

Hi everyone!!

I ' ve spent a lot of time reading through the thread and now I thinnk I am ready to go.

However, before flashing could anyone verify whether I got it right?

model: sm-g920f

firmware: 5.1.1 stock

root: cf-autoroot

TWRP 3

wanam xposed for the device plus two modules installed

AND NOW:

I will download the firmware from samobile

and then I will flash it without cheking the recovery check box(so leaving TWRP untouched) and everoot to have it rooted.

Is this correct?

Flashfire Not Flashing Zip File

Hi, was hoping someone may be able to help me. I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S4 (Verizon). Rooted using this method with SU installed. Had pre-rooted Lollipop OF1 rom flashed with flashfire and have been using it for months but I recently messed it up trying to install cyanogenmod (which isn't possible with Samsungs locked bootloader as I found out:( ) and had to Odin back to KitKat, root it again and am now trying to go to Android 5.0 (Lollipop) again using this pre-rooted rom by muniz_ri. Here's the problem: flashfire loads and for 1-2 seconds it says installing [the-prerooted-rom] then it says rebooting & it boots back into Kitkat. See photo of the flash screen here. I used the flash zip or OTA feature within the flashfire app. I've also added a wipe before the flash but that didn't make a difference. Any ideas? Thanks
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] corkiejp:
Try maybe using the "Flash firmware package" instead and also post the logs requested in the OP.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] darvinm19:
OK, I failed to mention that I also tried the firmware option and but it got stuck on the 'samsung galaxy s' boot animation which I believe is a bootloop. I know it takes awhile for the first boot after a flash but it normally stays on the Verizon logo not the samsung logo. But I'd be willing to try that again. Is there anyway to fix a bootloop if this happens again?
