[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxx2012:
So recently, like just yesterday youtube 720p and 1080p in 60 fps has been officially released on iOS and Android, a friend of mine already has it on his iOS and ive seen some posts on android, However how many people honestly can use it on their androids? for me i cant even find 720p option anymore on my Samsung s4, im curious whether some devices are going to be released in a bit or just not even supported. Curious about your thoughts and comments on this

*Sorry if this is the wrong place to post it, im highly unsure of where exactly to post this
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PFM:
It's common not having 720p on many phones even flagship ones, however if you don't have 720p support you wont have 60fps support.

If you really really get 720p60fps then find youtube apk mods on xda which enable 720p and maybe you get lucky..
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxx2012:
Thanks for the reply mate, maybe i didnt phrase it correctly, i always had normal 720p and 1080p support on the official app, however after release of 60fps on phones, any video that was 720p60fps isnt shown adn the top quality is 480p, but videos with normal 720p and 1080p are shown and i can use that quality
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkside94mst:
Does this device have any ROMs.

I heard a lot of people saying that is too weak to have any kind of ROMs, but the stock ROM is poor in performance.

somehow i managed to root and flash CWM into the device

sorry for my poor english :) .

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
Remove the first picture as it contain your IMEI #, this number should always stay private.

Same procedure applies to your phone for rooting:

unlock the bootloader

flash twrp recovery 2.8.7.0

boot in recovery and exit, you'll be prompted to install root, select "yes" and reboot.

Or

unlock the bootloader

flash any custom recovery of your choice

flash supersu2.46 zip using your recovery

reboot
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ijaz Farooq:
Thnx

let me try this ...
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ijaz Farooq:
One more thing

Can I flash all the roms that are designed for m7?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
If you have a GSM variant of the M7 (M7_U or M7_UL) you can flash all gsm roms from this forum (I can see that yours is a M7_U btw). Don't forget that newer roms based on lollipop requires the latest firmware to be installed on your phone 7.xx.xxx.x (you are also on 7.xx.xxx.x so thats fine). Also make sure you are using the correct recovery version (specified in most rom threads) to flash the rom. Stay away from CDMA roms (like sprint M7WLS) they will soft brick your phone.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ijaz Farooq:
Thnx alot

One more thing plz

How to identify which variant I've?? U or ul?

I know as you told i am on u btw
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
Your version end with 7.18.709.120 meaning you are running a M7_U software version. M7_UL version ends with .20 only (7.18.709.20)

If you reboot in bootloader mode you can also see your model number U or UL

and if you use "fastboot getvar all" you'll have all the info about your phone probably a M7_U with MID PN0711000

I'm hating 5.1.. Might be a one off case on my phone but it is simply way too buggy and the battery life is awful compared to what I had going on my rooted 5.0

Like the thread title says, does anyone know if it's doable to get back to 5.0 so I can get back a rooted/stable phone?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisrozon:
Try a cache clearing first, that usually helps with those kind of issues.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adm1jtg:
If your bootloader is unlocked just flash the system.img and boot.img files from 5.0 or 444 through mfastboot. DO NOT FLASH ANYTHING ELSE
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bik2101:
Yeah.. Unfortunately have done a few of those and factory reset as well.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d33dvb:
I am also wondering if it is possible to flash back. Are you saying you have flashed system.img and boot.img and were able to? Wouldnt flashing boot.img give you the old bootloader and possibly brick?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JulesJam:
Did you take the OTA to get to 5.1?

---------- Post added at 07:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:09 AM ----------

boot.img is not the bootloader. It is the kernel and the ramdisk.

motoboot.img is the bootloader.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d33dvb:
Thank you for the clarification. I took the OTA, like a doof. Do you think its possible to flash back by flashing system and boot for 5.0 with fastboot and the rooted 5.0 with mofo? Will 5.0 boot on the new 5.1 bootloader and partition table?

Woke up this morning to a plugged in phone @92% and scorching hot. Thanks 5.1
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JulesJam:
You definitely cannot flash using mofo if you upgraded your bootloader to 5.1. Your copy of Mofo was specific not only for your device, but for 4.4.4 and 5.0 or 5.0.2 bootloader depending on your device. I put all of that in the noob guide.

Back up your data and do a factory reset.

---------- Post added at 06:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:16 PM ----------

Idk b/c I didn't upgrade my bootloader to 5.1. What version of the 5.1 bootloader are you on, 60.16?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bik2101:
I was on mofo 5.0.2 (?) then flashed the stock 5.0 then the 5.1 update that's floating around here somewhere. are you saying that it might be possible to get back to mofo 5.0? since i didn't take OTA?! that would be amazing.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JulesJam:
What verison of the bootloader are you running - 60.11, 60.14 or 60.16?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d33dvb:
I am on 60.16, and so bummed. I am guessing it is safe to try with normal fastboot to just try flashing system.img from stock 5.0 worst that could happen is I get a failed message or have to reflash 5.1 stock. I wonder if fastboot will allow me to flash system.img of an older version. I'm willing to take one for the team if someone can confirm the safest route to try, obviously not flashing gpt motoboot or anything else I read.

---------- Post added at 04:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:27 AM ----------

I hate being the idiot example. I knew better than to flash 5.1 ota. I had just gotten zAnti and cSploit working with iptables and arp poisoning too. If anyone is curious, find all the com.zAnti and com.cSploit folders and make them all 777.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bik2101:
60.16 ..... is that workable? or am I stuck
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JulesJam:
MoFo won't work on the 60.16 or 60.14 bootloaders. With 60.14, which was the 5.1 soak test bootloader, people have reported being able to downgrade back to 60.11 bootloader, but not with the 60.16.

---------- Post added at 01:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:43 AM ----------

IME you can flash stock, signed earlier system.img using mfastboot no problem. But you may need to flash the 5.0 boot.img and radios, too. If you have the system in sparsechunks you can use regular fastboot.

---------- Post added at 01:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:51 AM ----------

I had started a thread about plans for the update back in May to discuss these issues.

Is it a safe strategy to root by rolling back everything except the partition table (gpt.bin) and bootloader(motoboot.bin) from a stock 5.0 image via fastboot like normal, and then use kingroot to root 5.0, install sunshine and bob is your uncle? I have been unsuccessful at rooting 5.1 even after trying the UAF vulnerabilities recently. Will 5.0 boot on the 60.16 bootloader?

I've got a galaxy s4 19505 and created a backupimage with teamwin.

Is it possible to restore this image on a galaxy s4 ACTIVE ? ..

Reason for asking is because my s4 is dead, and I want to restore my backup to a S4 Active (work phone)

thanks!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
If you made a nandroid backup with TWRP, as long as you do a selective restore and replace only system and data, you should be ok. But before you go doing that, take a nandroid backup of your S4 Active so you can restore that if something goes wrong.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] newbk:
Hey all,

I've had my OnePlus for a while now and have flashed many a ROM, Kernel and Modem. Last night I flashed a rom and somehow my EFS corrupted. I had no IMEI and no baseband, but had WiFi. Then the constant reboots happened. I tried to do a nandroid backup but apparently the nandroid I had did not have the EFS data. I followed the directions HERE and got Oxygen up and running by

fastboot erase modemst1

fastboot erase modemst2

fastboot erase persist

Now, using the unofficial TWRP, I am unable to mount '/persist'. I get the error when trying to backup, format or anything else. I am currently trying to flash a new ROM and I can't seem to get anything to flash without bootlooping. I tried Exodus and SlimLP but both just sit and spin at the boot animation. I let Slim sit and spin for 10 minutes to no avail.

Unless someone can figure out a fix, I think I am going to totally return to stock and try again. I figure a full data wipe and return to stock is my last shot really. Any other ideas though?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] newbk:
UPDATE

OK so that didn't work. I returned to stock using WUG's toolkit and am stuck on the Cyanogen boot animation.

So now I'm going to try THIS TOOL and see if I can get a boot up.

UPDATE

I finally got 38r to boot. I have imei and all. Now it's a matter of getting it unlocked, TWRP and everything else.

Hopefully last UPDATE

After fighting with WUG again, (stupid Windows 8.1!), I am unlocked, rooted, and unofficial TWRP'd once again. After doing a backup, (with EFS), I installed SlimSaber. Booted up just fine. Thank Baby Jesus!!!

SO ... I guess this just ended up being a troubleshooting diary. Hopefully someone else finds it useful if they end up in a similar situation.

Hi newbk, I have a very similar issue with xiaomi mi4c device. Stock ROM seems to be running fine, but having endless boot animation with all other ROMs. Also TWRP error "Failed to mount /persist" during ROM zip install.

You have to create a new directory "OperatorNames" for example using totalcommander.

I guess it's the new update picking up some kind of root or something att don't like. I guess they are working harder to keep ppl from tampering. If it won't let u past that screen u may have to take it to them.

They will probably reflash the firmware.

Or u could try urself.

It's still new and I think everyone is still trying to figure it all out
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cmerlyn:
Well, I gave up and took it to the local AT&T store, they couldn't do anything. Called AT&T, the woman didn't even know about the update. They couldn't even get me a replacement phone (under warranty) at the store, they are snail mailing me a used/refurbished phone. I assume it will have non-rooted stock lollipop, so I will not be able to do anything with it.

That is what I get for doing an OTA of any sort from AT&T. Lesson learned.
