[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dspeier:
Hi, we are facing problems with the LG G3 D855 international trying to open band 4 (1700/2100) to use it in Argentina (here the telcos sell a G3 called D855AR).

We opened the band (trhu the method with QPST/QXDM software), it gets connected in 4G but the upload / download speed is very very poor.

Anybody knows if there a hardware limitation in that model that impact on the band 4?

Anybody knows if there other settings in the NV that could be associated with the lte bands?

I will appreciate very much any tip or advice.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andezzat:
I made sure the drivers are google drivers. I have done this before millions of times.

I swapped cables.

I tried everything.

I always get an OKAY, but no erases. I read that new Android Bootloaders need stock recovery to erase the data and other partitions after an oem unlock, in order to complete successfully.

Only issue is, stock recovery is broken with a red triangle and a dead android robot.

Bootloader version is MAKOZ30f.

'fastboot oem unlock' results in OKAY (as mentioned earlier) then I reboot boot loader and get it back on locked status again! Like NOTHING ever happened.

Is Debugging enabled? No. Because it was fully stock before this (friend's phone). Is that the issue? If so? How can I fix it when I can't get into recovery or even the system!

Hmm... What else?

That's mostly it.

I've tried NRT with no luck. It booted a modified boot.img and attempted to flash stock recovery 5.1.1 to no avail. The phone rebooted back into a bootloop, I shortly saw the unlocked white lock with the Google logo splash, but that was it then bootloooooop.

I have a fair bit of experience with android devices over the years. I am not a newbie, so I do have an intermediate level of knowledge with rooting, recoveries, Custom ROMs and the like.

Thank you guys in advance, I hope this is solvable! Because this is the first bootloop device that has actually gotten to me!

Tl;dr: Nexus 4 stuck in a bootloop. Recovery is broken (red triangle). Bootloader will not unlock (resets to 'locked' after bootloader reboot). Restarting after a bootloader unlock attempts just results in system bootloop again.

Help is gravely needed.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
Stock recovery will give you the laying down Android with a red exclamation, once it times out press PWR+VOL UP to get to the recovery menu.

The bootloader probably won't unlock because it can't wipe (a requirement with the fastboot command), or it is locked in the Security settings of the latest stock image. Beginning with Lollipoop, if you are locked you have to tell Android it can be unlocked before doing it, it is a security measure.

You will need to reflash the full stock image, if NRT is failing do it manually, and do it from Linux if possible (no driver issues like Windows), you can get the images here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images

And remember, first boot on Lollipop on the N4 can take 10-15 minutes or more well caches are being built and the OS is settings up (easily 5 times longer than a boot on KitKat), give it time, unless it restarts (a true bootloop) just let it sit. Patience is a real virtue here...

Note, you could have a corrupt or defective flash RAM chip, if that is the case, a full factory flash -MAY- fix it, but no guarantee... If the flash ram is bad, they you might be SOL.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andezzat:
Oh my god. Thank you so much. I am so stupid. I thought stock recovery is broken. But it's not. That's the normal way it should display. And you are right. Holding power then tapping vol up will show the menu :)

I am such a fool, I've always used custom recoveries, and forgot totally how stock recoveries work ^_^

I am now trying an adb sideload (the factory reset from recovery isn't working, lots of errors).

Gonna try a couple things.

And no I can't flash the images, cause I need to unlock the bootloader (if done through fastboot). Which is my main issue.

Hoping sideload really works!

BUT THANK YOU AGAIN SO MUCH ^_^
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andezzat:
Okay. Now I am getting failure to mount /cache and stuff. Lots of problems with the cache partition.

I attempted 2 factory resets. I am now restarting and will report on how it goes. Gonna let the phone take its sweet sweet time booting.

If nothing else works, it really might be a hardware defect, and I really might be SOL [MENTION=2001582]acejavelin[/MENTION]

*sigh*

Oh well, all phones come to an end :/
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andezzat:
Oh and great work Google on your 'extra precaution' with the whole bootloader unlock thing. Really? Nexuses/Nexii were MADE to be easily unlock-able. If this wasn't a problem... I might have actually been able to format the /cache/ partition, or try something with custom recovery that'd fix this phone quickly. *sigh*
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
When you do "fastboot oem unlock" are you getting a confirmation screen on the device and selecting Yes, or does that screen never pop-up?

Also, for the cache issue, in fastboot try "fastboot format cache" instead of the erase command.

And be aware that on first boot, I have had several Nexus/GPE Lollipop devices not show the setup screen or launcher (just a blank wallpaper) even after waiting 10-15 minutes, a simple reboot and more patience usually corrects this.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andezzat:
I did confirm, and it says unlocked on the phone. After restarting the bootloader it goes back to locked.

Cache: not supported in locked device.

I really cannot do a thing without unlocking the bootloader :(

Phone is still bootlooping. I gave it lots of time *sigh*
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
I forget if unlocking the bootloader forces a reboot or not... If it doesn't, unlock and without rebooting try formatting cache or "fastboot boot recovery.img"" of latest twrp image.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andezzat:
That usually just says the device is locked, and that cannot be done on a locked device.

No it doesn't force a reboot!

I will try formatting cache partition again directly after unlocking bootloader (at least attempting). I'll report back if anything is successful.

I've tried flashing recovery as well, but just says cannot do while phone is locked. Will also try again.

Thank you for your help. I appreciate it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
After you unlock, do NOT try to FLASH recovery, try to boot it...

fastboot boot <path\recovery.img>

If the bootloader is unlocked, you should be able to push the recovery image over and boot it (not flash it), this will run a temporary copy that you can use to try to format the cache partitions, it doesn't write to the flash partitions to boot it, it all happens in RAM, so even if the flash is corrupt, you -MIGHT- be able to get TWRP loaded and format things to get them working again.

But to be honest, if you can't write recovery, or any other partition (or so it appears), this one might be done... but I don't stick a fork in it until there is nothing more to try.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andezzat:
I didn't notice the boot it part. Okay I am in TWRP now. I can't wipe cache. It is unable to mount cache, data usb-otg, and storage.

Where do I go to format not wipe?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andezzat:
Sideload gives me error: protocol fault (no status).
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
Wipe in TWRP formats, except internal storage and data since internal storage is actually /data/media.

This is bad, if you can't mount cache or internal storage, your flash ram is likely bad.

Most likely you need a newer adb to use sideload in TWRP... There is a minimum revision of adb required, version 1.0.32 or higher.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andezzat:
That was useful! I got adb 1.0.32 but now instead, I get total xfer: 0.00x :(

Is that it? EOL for this phone? :'(
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peryndark:
I don't know if this will help you, OP but here goes - try selecting the partition in TWRP, changing the partition type to something else and then changing it back to ext4. See if that works.

PS: I remember that my N4 refused to boot up to system after I flashed a factory image - it only booted up to recovery which I promptly restarted. Turns out you have to wait till the recovery reboots itself.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andezzat:
Nothing is working right now. I tried changing formats and everything. It's just unable to mount any of the partitions. And now they're all stuck on 0mb size.

:(
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andezzat:
I have an otg usb. It won't even detect or mount it at all. I can't even choose it instead of internal storage. This phone is beyond gone :/
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andezzat:
I get constant ERROR=8 from e2fsck whenever I try to resize or repair. Probably has something to do with the phone not being REALLY unlocked.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peryndark:
I'm starting to wonder if this might be a corrupt image of your radio or the bootloader... Flashing it (if it's possible) might be risky in your situation but at this point in time I don't know if you can do much else than try. ;)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andezzat:
How might I go about doing that?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peryndark:
As far as I know - the factory image from the N4 has the bootloader and radio files. I'm unsure if the 'fake unlock' state will let you flash those though.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andezzat:
Fake unlock state doesn't let me flash anything. Only successful thing has been 'fastboot boot twrp-2.7.6.0.img'.

I get a Google logo and an unlocked lock at the bottom for that ONE boot, and that's it. Inside TWRP, NOTHING mounts or works.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peryndark:
Sorry but it looks like I'm out of ideas :( It might be the end of the line for the poor thing.

Is it safe to root using my current version or do I still have to downgrade to the (23.0.A.2.93)? Also can someone post the best tutorial to follow?

Hi,

I was just wondering what really happenes when you unlock the bootloader. I mean, since you lose all your data and stuff. What do you actually do?

Thanks :)

Sent from my Xperia Z2 somewhere in Norway
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlAckXpeRia:
I don't remember losing my data. Although I did it on the second day I got the phone. If you have some preciousa data-back up. There are guides for everything. When I got on Android with my first smartphone(Xperia X8), I didn't even have an account here and I slowly understood everything I needed and a week later I was flashing stuff like crazy. And at that time there weren't many guides and stuff. Nowadays it is ultra easy and some people still can't understand. I'm not sure if you are new to this or not, but just in case I wrote these stuff.

BTW I didn't fully understand your question. What is the link between losing data and doing something? If you mean how we recover-backup. If you mean what we do after that-DRM restoration fix and flashing kernels.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gamer649:
When you unlock your bootloader for the first time you lose your data, and every time you unlock your bootloader you lose your DRM keys unless you backed them up.

Steps you should take to unlock your bootloader:

1) Obtain root (this is needed).

2) Backup your TA keys with this tool.

3) Download Titanium backup from the play store (the titanium backup pro key is recommended too if you have a lot of apps).

4) In titanium backup, make sure your backup directory is set to your external SD card (MENU>Preferences>Backup folder location)

5) Unlock your bootloader.

6) Re-download the titanium backup and tb pro key, restore your backup.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Allek84:
I found this thread and I hope so anyone can help me.

Yesterday i unlock bootloader on Z2,but i did not backup TA Partition and I lost DRM keys and later iI saw that the pictures quality in camera is degraed.

Anyway i find solution to flash early firmware and then flash Andro Plus kernel whic has own recovery and in recovery I flash DRM restoration files and finally flash the latest lp stock .28 but Exclude TA partition in flashing and I restore camera quality.

I ve tried later to flash rom EXistenz 2.0 but I lose TA partition settings and Andro Plus Kernel and DRM restoration files and camera qualityis againg worse.

So my question is,is there anyway that I can flash any custom rom but that I keep TA partition settings from early firmware and flashed DRM restoration files?Is there possibillity to flash custom rom but keep camera quality? I hope so that I am explain well.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mokiwipeout:
If only people could read...

In the drm restoration thread it clearly states that WHENEVER YOU FLASH A ROM, YOU MUST FLASH THE DRM RESTORATION ZIP AGAIN.

Whenever you flash a ROM, you need to flash your favorite kernel again, or you will simply not have it. This is because roms usually contain the stock kernel.

So, if you want to use a STOCK BASED CUSTOM rom, and you want the drm functions, simply go to the drm restoration thread and read ALL OF THE INSTRUCTIONS.

If you do want a real custom rom, such as cyanogen mod, then it is NOT possible to use the drm functions, simply because they are part of the Sony roms.

By the way, even if you do everything correctly, there is a chance that the drm restoration zip might not work.

In this case, simply root your device, find an apk called credentials manager and delete it (although I am not sure whether this is the correct apk so backup everything first). Afterwards, reboot and flash the drm restoration zip again. That should do the trick.

Hope that helps.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Allek84:
Thanks a lot for your help.I find Credential ManagerS apk via es file explorer and I delete it and reboot phone.

It doesnt actually matter that something has changed, as seen in the screenshot, since it doesnt seem to actually affect the phone...

But you will have to do the entire procedure every single time, including deleting this apk, and everything else. It may be boring, I know, but it does the trick.

The procedure must be done whenever you flash a ROM, or even flash an ftf file(which are stock Sony roms), if your bootloader is unlocked.

So, I have Odin 3.09 and 3.10 and stock rom of 5.1.1 but for some reason I keep getting "fail" in Odin. Now thins phone has been rooted with a custom rom. Do I need to know what custom rom is loading in the phone in order to revert back to stock? Also, do I need to load the OS zip file to just the sd card and load it in recovery mode?
