[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] OlDrunk:
*Update*

Figured it out from this post here

http://xdaforums.com/nexus-7-2013/nexus-7-2013-qa/mount-recovery-t3064562

Some version of the Nexus 7 2013 that come with a funny bootloader and 5.0.1 installed and need a different Recovery, All good now, sorry for stupid post. :(

*Update*

Hello,

Please, I'm trying to figure out if I'm missing something or is my nexus device defective some how or are there new Asus Google Nexus7 V2 unrootable/flashable for 2015 or is there another needed method for rooting like downgrading first?

I got a Asus Nexus 7 (flo) WiFi it came with 5.0.1 on it and I tried to root the device using Wug's Toolkit 2.0.5 and got the drivers installed and put the Nexus in USB Dev and can unlock the bootloader and that is about as far I can go with the device , rooting won't go past custom recovery(twrp 2.8.5.0-flo.img) I get into the twrp menu but it stops there with the Wug's nexus toolkit and after a device reboot twrp is gone and goes back to stock recovery( little broken android icon). Tried to manually root and flashed TWRP but it won't see/mount the internal storage, OTG-USB worked and tried to install SuperSU zip that way and still no go twrp can't mount /system or any thing acts like it installed but on reboot no SuperSU app installed and recovery mod gone back to stock , tried to install latest ClockworkMod and same deal can't mount internal and no OTG so CWM is useless to load anything. It's like the bootloader is locked even though I unlocked it, says unlocked in fastboot, Semi-Bricked device out of the factory? Or employes at the store fudged it up? . Also if it means anything out of the two computers I connected to (win7 and Ubuntu12.04) on both in USB mode PTP only works, MTP mode don't work at all won't recognize as a drive or device.

Thanks to any/every one reads this or tries to help.

-Cheers!
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolmaster121:
According to Qualcomm:

https://www.qualcomm.com/products/snapdragon/quick-charge:

In laboratory tests using a 3300mAh battery1, a Quick Charge 2.0 enabled device went from 0% to 60% charge in 30 minutes, while a device without Quick Charge 2.0 using a conventional (5 volt, 1 amp) charger achieved just a 12% gain in the same 30 minutes. A device with Quick Charge 1.0 managed a 30% charge in that time period.

Scrolling down on that page it shows the most popular Quick Charge 2.0 devices, the LG G4 is among them.

So the G4 3000mAh battery should be above 60% in 30 minutes if it uses Quick Charge 2.0.

I got this charger:

http://goo.gl/082zmj

Seems legit, but my charge times seem to be stuck at 1.0. That is it went from 19% to 55% in 30 minutes, which means it charged 36% in 30 minutes.

What kind of time have you clocked with your Quick Charger?

Also, my G4 got quite hot when charging.

Ok everyone. here is the fix for those stuck at Samsung logo after 5.1.1 update thanks to this person "Tuandung.tran". I had to go to a Vietnamese site and download the file that took me 7 hours to download, I had a hard time translating the site since it was in Vietnamese, so now I want to contribute and help others by saving them time with straight forward tutorial on how to fix the problem that they have.

Ok so here it is:

1) download this file and extract it to your PC ==========> https://mega.nz/#!vIEEBQyT!U5AzPE4iR3b5yUzdZ6rAT3AFXyCLq__4qiFTfkBupp0

2) go to recovery and delete system files and cache

3) go to download mode

4) open Odin on your PC and click AP to add AP_G925TUVU2COF6.tar that you extracted earlier to your PC

5) with Odin still open add BL_G925TUVU2COF6.tar by clicking BL button

6) click start

7) After Odin is finished, it will reboot your phone. just wait a few minutes and you'll be all set.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] uniphase:
Thank you for this fix!

It helped resolve my boot up issue after flashing the latest COF8 firmware with Odin3 v3.10.6 to my SM-G925T. After adding the COF8 tar.md5 from SamMobile to the AP section in Odin, my phone reset, and shortly after the little android figurine came up with an "installing update" status and then an "erasing..." status. The phone then rebooted by itself and it wouldn't get past the Samsung Galaxy S6 edge boot up screen. I tried doing a factory reset and cache reset by pressing home, vol+up, and the power button and those didn't help either, but your fix did!

I noticed this firmware fix is based off of the old COF6 firmware while the latest is currently COF8.

If you continue to have boot up problems after flashing any type of newer stock firmware to your phone using Odin and Smart Switch, like I did, you will have to perform something similar to this fix and break up the files in the firmware tarball into the BL and AP tar.md5 files. I split the COF8 firmware from SamMobile and flashed the reconstructed tar.md5 files to the BL and AP sections in Odin, and it worked!

Procedure:

1. Download the latest stock firmware from SanMobile or another source.

2. Rename the filename extension from xxxxx.tar.md5 to xxxxx.tar and open the tar file with WinRAR, 7zip or another utility that can extract tar files.

3. You should see the extracted files below:

- boot.img

- cache.img

- cm.bin

- modem.bin

- recovery.img

- sboot.bin

- system.img​

4. Download the attachment in this XDA thread and extract it somewhere.

5. Place the boot.img, system.img, sboot.bin, and cm.bin files in the bin folder, extracted from the attachment in the XDA thread in step 4.

6. Open notepad or another text editor and create this batch file in the same bin folder. Save the filename as convert.bat or whatever you filename you prefer with a .bat extension.

tar -H ustar -c sboot.bin cm.bin > BL.tar
md5sum -t BL.tar >> BL.tar
mv BL.tar BL.tar.md5

@echo off
timeout /t 3 /nobreak
@echo on

tar -H ustar -c boot.img system.img > AP.tar
md5sum -t AP.tar >> AP.tar
mv AP.tar AP.tar.md5

7. Run the bat file and BL.tar.md5 and AP.tar.md5 will be subsequently created.

8. Open Odin on your PC and click AP to add AP.tar.md5 that was created in Step 7.

9. With Odin still open add BL.tar.md5 by clicking BL button.

10. Click Start.

The phone should be working after the reboot and get past the Samsung Galaxy S6 edge logo!

This method looked very promising, but flashing failed again, just like anything else i've tried so far.

I took the tar files apart and turned out that the two bin files stops flashing immediately, and the system image goes on flashing till a certain point, then flashing fails.

If i leave out these three files, everything goes fine, if any of them is present, flashing fails.

Also tried kies emergency recovery with serial number, but, it went on till 15%, then failed.

Any ideas?

Can you clarify what you mean by "erase the cache file"? Is this cache file already on the phone or the one in the tar and do i just select it in windows and click delete or open, select all, delete & save? How is this done? I can't get into recovery if you mean i need to do a phone cache wipe.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] chulew:
Not clear at all. Do you take the white board off the wall completely when you erase it? Delete or Remove are much better directions IMO. My friends son is about to die of cancer. I'm trying to recover messages he created for his family to keep after the last stock update went bad.

This is an update to my previous post. I recently upgraded the firmware of my T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge SM-G925T to the latest firmware on Sammobile.com, version EQA2, after a long layoff and followed these instructions I had written years ago. It didn't work this time, so in order to fix it, I performed these specific steps.

1. Download the latest firmware from Sammobile.com for the SM-G925T.

2. Flash the whole 3.9+ GB tar.md5 firmware to the AP section in Odin. Reboot manually. You should receive an error. Go to download mode.

3. Generate the AP.tar.md5 and BL.tar.md5 files from the 3.9+ GB tar.md5 and flash them with Odin (read instructions below). Reboot manually. You should receive another error. Go to download mode.

4. Download Chainfire Auto Root for Odin for the SM-G925T (https://autoroot.chainfire.eu/#odin) and flash the tar.md5 to AP in Odin.

Installing Chainfire Auto Root does the trick and fixes the boot issues. You can try omitting step 3 and flash auto root and see if that works. I haven't tested that yet, but I was able to revive my phone by doing all these steps. Hope it helps.

Hi, I have a Moto X 2013 Developer Edition with bootlocker unlocked and stock rom with Android 4.4.4. It's root, has TWRP and SuperSU.

Since last week my phone is shutting down almost always after power on (only a few times it keeps power on for a few hours), and restarting in TWRP recovery mode.

Do you know what could be the cause of this boot loop?

I suspect it has something to do with the Lollipop Update to 5.1, cause I start getting this boot loop after the update option was shown in my phone (I didn't accept the update at first).

I tried installing again SuperSu (thinking that maybe root was disabled), but without luck. The phone continue with this boot loop.

I also tried installing now the Lollipop Update to see if that resolve the issue, unfortunately after the update is downloaded and I accept the install, the phone shutdown and it boots in TWRP again (so the updated doesn't install).

Hope my problem was explained well and anybody can help cause my phone is really unusable like this.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for your response. Do you mean to flash stock recovery? or full stock rom?

Just in case, I don't need/want to install lollipop, only want to avoid this kind of boot loop and stay at 4.4.4. I'll only install 5.1 it if that fix the issue /but as I say I can't do it because after download and try to install, it power down the phone and goes to twrp recovery).

Thanks for your help!
