[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adz3d:
I was reading that flashing a custom rom normally would trip the counter but if done via Flashfire it wouldn't trip can anyone confirm this for me?

Much appreciated.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] compywiz:
It's not Flashfire that trips it, but rather the ROM you install. Check to make sure the ROM you want to install doesn't trip Knox and you're all set.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adz3d:
Nice thanks for that.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luxandroid:
But there is no ROM'S that doesn't tripp knox...
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThePagel:
Just remove the boot.img from the zip and installer script and it won't trip knox.

Flashfire can't handle Aroma also ,what about that ? Thanks

i have no interest in rooting my device i want to downgrade my AT&T LG G3 Vigor D725 back to 4.4 kitkat because lolipop is an absolute god awful mess and yes ive tried looking it up on google but ive seen stock firmware downloads for the D850 but i have a D725 also are there any risks of downgrading? and sorry if im posting this in the wrong forum

EDIT:Changed 4.4.2 to 4.4 Kitkat
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rsblazer28:
Seems like no body ever wants to help. I'm also looking for that firmware as well
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PumpedUpKicks:
Yea i was talking to my best friend on skype and he said that if he can he will buy an AT&T LG G3 Vigor with 4.4.2 or at least 4.4 and extract the firmware and send it to me. It seems that there is a small amount of interest for it. If he goes through with it I will upload the firmware here for you guys to download.

Why would you want to do that? Lolipop is ****ing horrible ESPECIALLY on the LG G3 Vigor

BLACK SCREEN ON BOOT ISSUE FIX​

First of all Big thanks to my dear friend Ano11 for the bootloader image ​

If you format /sys_boot by mistake from CWM recovery and you end up with Black screen no NOKIA and only Vibrating and cant fix it on NOKIA Care Suite or NOKIA Flasher this is how to fix it.

Human Beings Issue Details:

by formatting /sys_boot you have deleted the program that will connect your phone to NOKIA Care Suite so it will no longer recognize your phone neither any NOKIA Flasher and now this is how bring it back to let the NOKIA Care recognize it again.

Alians Tech Details about issue:

formatting /sys_boot removes the bootloader which has fastboot, the device will no longer be a phone it'll be just a flash memory with alot of partitions accessible from any linux device. and since the /sys_boot is located on /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 we just need to restore a bootloader image there and it will restore fastboot that will fix everything then with NOKIA Care or NOKIA Flasher etc. "WE HAVE ADB WORKING DO ANYTHING YOU WANT!!!!!!"

Now to how to fix it!!!

Requirements:

1- Ubuntu Live CD (Dont use any other variation or another Linux because i ONLY Tested it on Ubuntu)

2- Download Attachment File.

3- A Good USB cable( i strongly recommend the original cable to avoid problems)

Steps to FIX:

1- Boot up in a Working Ubuntu (or Ubuntu Live CD)

2- Download and extract the attachment in Home Folder

3- Open up Ubuntu Menu and look up (Disks)

4- Remove your NOKIA X Battery and Unplug it from any USB or charger, re-insert battery, then hold Power button untill phone Vibrates then release power button. after you do all that plug it in USB to your computer

** if you have done those steps perfectly you should see a new device in (Disks) application will say(something-qualcomm-something) depends on the type of your phone. you will see a table on the right when you click it that has 3 partitions and then many other partitions grouped up don't touch these at all**

5- click on the third partition from left it should be in size of 52MB.

6- right click it and choose (Restore Disk from an Image).

7- Browse to your Home folder then in (NOKIA X RM980 BOOTLOADER) and choose mmcblk0p3.img

8- it will ask you if you are sure click Restore.

9-Wait for it to finish. when it does close Disks then unplug phone, remove battery, re-insert it, power up your phone.

BANG NOKIA APPEARS!!! The phone is back to life!!! no cloning needed and no NOKIA Care Center Needed. you can now use NOKIA Flasher and NOKIA Care Suite to restore your phone to factory firmware or use XDA Furoms to install CWM back and your favorite Custom ROM

UPDATE

You guys have asked me for the Backup procedure and i promissed to repost it but I did not have time to post so i'm very very sorry for being late!!

How to back up the bootloader partition

start up your nokia x RM-980, enable debugging, connect to USB and find an ADB then give it next comand:

adb shell

you should be in your phone shell. then:

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 of=/sdcard/mmcblk0p3.img

that will backup your bootloader as mmcblk0p3.img in root of your sdcard
[Nokia X] nguyentuyen:
How to flash mmcblk0p3.img on linux pro? Thanks.
[Nokia X] xWaLeEdOoOx:
i will make it easy for you but first i need to test it. so if you have a working bootloader for RM-980 please follow my steps and upload the image on google drive, mega or mediafire and share it with us. i need to test my theory before putting people in danger.
[Nokia X] nguyentuyen:
I use nokia X+ rm-1053,if you need i will upload it for you. Thanks
[Nokia X] xWaLeEdOoOx:
i'm still not sure about NOKIA X+ for where the bootloader is located in the mmc but thank you :)

[Nokia X] Kunal111:
Please give any video of whole process because i dont see that opetion you told right click on that partion and you will see restore data from disk...

please help me to live my nxl......
[Nokia X] Ano11:
In case you do not see any partitions, In that case you have not only formatted ("emptied") this partition but removed all partitions, I assume. So you have to make a new partition (or even all partitions) prior to restoring the mmcblk0p3.img disk image. I have no experience with doing this on a phone (don't know how critical the location and order of partitions is), but I guess a partition listing of a working Nokia X will help you further. Later today when I am at home I hope I can post the partition listing for you.
[Nokia X] Kunal111:

I have one problem how to flash that mmcblk0p3.img on nokia x

[Nokia X] Ano11:
It might help if you describe exactly what you are doing...

Is your device recognized as Qualcomm something at all?

In order to get it recognized on my Windows computer as Qualcomm device, I have to boot into bootloader mode, i.e.:

BootLoader Mode:

1. Turn off your device

2. Remove wires and battery

3. Hold on Volume + Key while you connect USB

4. Device should be detected as Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM

(copied from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2667572

So a different procedure as what the OP mentioned.

You so might try that on Ubuntu as well...
[Nokia X] Kunal111:
5-click on the third partition from left it should be in size of 52MB.

6- right click it and choose (Restore Disk from an Image).

I'hv not done only this process......

please help me how to restore

Thanxx in advanced
[Nokia X] Ano11:
Second attempt: Is your device recognized as a Qualcomm device? Do you see it in the device list on the left?
[Nokia X] Kunal111:
help

Yes , but how can i flast that img file on 52mb partion
[Nokia X] Ano11:
And do you see the 52 MB partition on the right? What happens if you select it and rightclick on it, do you see the option "Restore partition from image" or something similar?

It helps if you post in detail what your problem is, otherwise we end up in many question-answer posts... Like we are doing now...
[Nokia X] Ano11:
Hi there,

First of all: thanks for the acknowledgements :) :)

This morning my son came to me complaining that his Nokia X was not working anymore.

I checked it and: no recovery mode, no bootloader access. Black screen, no Nokia logo, no vibration (!).

I thought: would I need this thread and my own bootloader image now?? That would be a coincidence!

Connecting the phone to the pc using USB still resulted in "Qualcomm device detected", but nothing more.

Then I noticed that the battery felt a bit loose inside the phone, also I noticed a crack in the plastic cover of the phone.

A closer look to the battery connector of the phone showed that two of them were really bent!

So I opened the casing to have a better access to the connector (really very easy using a torx T5 screw driver), nowhere these terrible plastic clips to break off when you open the device like in other phone brands...

Using my reading glasses and a magnifying glass I bent the clips back -> the phone was revived.

I guess my son must have dropped the phone real hard which resulted in bending these clips...

So people, the take home message is: also check the battery connectors closely when you experience similar problems.
[Nokia X] vishalbiswas:
Can you tell me how to back up my bootloader to an img? I have Nokia_XL.

I'm on elementary OS Freya.

ADB and fastboot are installed successfully.
[Nokia X] Ano11:
Take a look at the second post, you can find the procedure in the quotes from the orginal posting of the OP (the OP removed it later from his post).
[MENTION=225651]op[/MENTION] / @ xWaLeEdOoOx : maybe good to add this the procedure to your post again.

You may need to check if the partition name is the same for the XL version, e.g. by looking at the TWRP log files.
[Verizon LG G2] jb1245:
Hello,

My previous G2 was having screen issues, so I just got a replacement from Verizon that's on 5.0.2 Lollipop. I wanted to root it, and so looked at the various guides online and on here and found the one click root method. In each method, I have made it through the steps until it asks me to go into download mode; for some reason, my phone isn't going into the mode. I press and hold the volume up button, then plug in a USB cable (tried multiple cables), and all that happens is the device cycles (e.g. the LG logo appears for a few seconds, then the phone reboots'), and then the phone boots up normally. I never see the 'download mode' screen or anything. This is driving me mad! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[Verizon LG G2] mach01:
Hey! I had the same issue rooting my LG G2. I found that what you should just do is download and install AutoRec (It's an APK) and let it run. Worked without a hitch for me. You can also try Kingo Root if Auto Rec fails.
[Verizon LG G2] jb1245:
Hi, in AutoRec I cannot click on the Lollipop to flash TWRP (I checked to make sure it's the correct version). And where can I download Kingo Root? I know there's a link on their website, but that wasn't downloading for me.
[Verizon LG G2] mach01:
Try using IE for the download and see if it works. I can't promise anything seeing that you are on 5 but just give it a try. You can also try TowelRoot. https://towelroot.com/

Click on the symbol to download directly onto your phone and run the Apk file. Hope this helps.

Towelroot doesn't work, I don't think it works on Lollipop. And what are you suggesting I try to download from IE exactly?

I don't know if I just found this out but you can flash any firmware including international G920F on a G920T using flashfire I just tried this not caring if I hard bricked or not so now I can confirm it works!

The one I tried was G920F UK and I did not try Verizon/Sprint firmware yet...

Please forgive me if someone already found this or this is old news.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] -Mr. X-:
This is know as flashfire only flashes system and kernel. no protected partitions such as boot loader or modem. If you got odin to flash the full package, welcome to brick city as the boot loader would refuse to boot on the device.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] VAbaker:

I always turn off the phone before charging, but this phone does not have a number percent on the display when charging, so I wait until the indicator light is green, but every time I turn on the phone, it is actually around 97%, not 100% :confused:

With modern batteries, it won't make that much of an impact on the battery if you charge it while it is on or not. Because the phone is off, it will charge faster however.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajamils:
I bought the phone from Tmobile and then bought the unlock code online but for the life of me I am unable to get the prompt for entering the unlocke code.

One previous phones (G3, Note 3), it automatically poped up when I started the phone with At&t sim but I'm having no such luck with the G4. I have also tried all the codes that the seller suggested but still no prompt. I even tried the Tmobile's unlock application and it just gives an error that server is not responding.

Does anyone has any suggestion? I desperately need some help.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThatKawaiiGuy:
I believe that phone needs to be used for 30 or 60 days or something to let you unlock it.

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] batillojr:
same "strick" requirements with S6/Edge.. to do permanent unlock your brother needs to have the ESN tied to his account as main user.. you can try the temporary unlock with his tmobile that could buy you 30days
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Swizzle82:
Try putting this in the dialer 2945#*811#

Edit.. Doesn't work they gave me that code to unlock my G3 but it had the 851 suffix If you own the phone outright then customer service should give you the code
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hendusoone:
I was told by an in-store t-mobile rep that if you buy the phone outright, you can contact them to get it unlocked for free. If you buy it on the EIP, you have to make two payments before you can get it unlocked.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajamils:
I did buy the phone outright but since they didn't want to sell the phone without a service plan I got the month to month plan and from what I've heard I need to keep the account for 40 days before I can request an unlock code.

With that said, since I already have the unlock code all I need is the access to the prompt to enter it.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lobanovskiy:
Sticky situation...

I got the same problem. Any attempts to prompt to enter activation fail.

Tried entering other carrier sim cards and dialing 2945#*811# but it doesn't do anything.

All we need is a manual way to enter unlock code (which i already got). Would be nice if there was an app that just forces it to appear... It feela like T-Mobile is just masked it out of their dialer.

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Swizzle82:
I did notice that there is a new app Tmo threw on here called unlock. Maybe that's why the code won't work. Maybe it has to go through the app now..
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajamils:
That's what it looks like. I contacted Tmobile and asked for an unlock code and the CSR told me that they do not have any record of my phone's IMEI so I should use it for few days and then call back.

I'm on new Tmobile account and just opened the phone today.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lobanovskiy:
Yeah, but all that app does it checks if you're eligible for an unlock... I don't understand I gave them FULL payment for the phone (I don't owe T-mobile anything for this device, device is paid off in full).

But I did call them and they're saying you basically have to be with them for 40 days for them to give you the unlock.. It's really lame how they're hacking their phone not to display unlock option, even though you friggin' have paid off phone.... you don't force people to be your customers like that "Mr we give you so much freedom, we don't even have contracts".
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajamils:
That's total BS. I paid full price for the phone as well so I don't know what gives them the right to do something like this.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crazypinoy9:
same here. not only did i pay full price. according to their pricing chart i had to pay a $30 premium on top of the MSRP because I'm a non-tmobile customer. Now i'm finding out that not only does the unlock process have to go through app, even though customer service gave me different instructions on how to unlock it (that didn't work), but I also have to find a tmobile customer that's within good standing temporarily give me their sim card to put into the phone so that i can run the unlock with the app. WHAT THE F**K TMOBILE!? and you want me to leave ATT for you? as bad as people say ATT is they've never given me issues like this. BS
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajamils:
I was a Tmobile customer since Voice Stream days but switched to At&t two years back and I'm never going back. The only thing that I hate about At&t is their B$ about locking bootloader and because of that my last 3 phones have been from Tmobile. But the way things are going with Tmobile now, it looks like I'll be buying my next phone will either be an international version or At&t
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lobanovskiy:
I'm with you guys! This is last time I did business with T-Mobile , forcing people to use your services even if you paid in full for the device is not the best way to gain business...

And by the way even getting someone with T-Mobile account will not magically unlock your device, you would still have to buy their service for 2 months ahead to unlock "YOUR" device.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tidbits:
I have unlocked phones for friends before. As long as the phone is registered on the network for at least 7 days and is paid off someone who has a T-Mobile account(older than 40 days) can unlock any device.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamzer11:
I was thinking of getting the G4 from T-Mobile and use it on ATT. However, I learned a harsh lesson when trying this for my wife with the S6 edge. There is no question in my mind that T-Mobile is going around the agreement that all carriers have to unlock the device. I too purchased a code and even though someone figured out how to get the unlock prompt up, it would not take the code. I decided to get prepaid service. Turns out that if you get prepaid service, to unlock the phone you have to have added at least $100 balance. Otherwise, you have to wait 1 year on prepaid. No one I spoke to was able to unlock the device. In the end I probably could have gotten the phone unlocked once I had $100 balance using the app but I thought this was ridiculous so I filed an FCC complaint. I was contacted the next day by someone form their executive office. She offered to unlock the phone. I had already returned the phone and was stuck with a $100 prepaid account I didn't need. So in the end I got a $100 visa card from them.

Despite me explaining to her multiple times, she would not acknowledge that they were preventing third-party unlocking by forcing the use of the T-Mobile app. I think they need to hear from more people. I gave the links in my S6 post. I am linking it here so maybe some of you can file the complaint as well and T-Mobile can stop this nonsense for phones purchased at full retail.
