[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jan.devai:
Can't downgrade from 5.0 to 4.4.2

Hi Guys,

I tried to downgrade from 5.0 to 4.4.2 but it does not work.

Is it because I have already triggered know 0x1 ?

Thanks

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richo27:
I have been trying to root my galaxy note pro 12.2 that I have received for work (in China so Chinese ROM), simply so I can install the Play Store, I am following the below procedure:

http://androidcentral.us/2014/03/root-samsung-galaxy-note-pro-12-2/

I have the wifi version so I am using the SM-900 CF-root.

Kies is installed, debugging mode set on USB.

But I keep getting the error in Odin:

complete(write) operation failed

I am suspecting its something to do with the connection via USB, I have some problems with transferring files to the pad. I am unable to check the "media device" option under USB connection settings, Kies has been able to restore my pad after the flash fails but it doesn't find my device, it has suggested I use Smart Switch but I dont agree to Samsung collection my personal information when i connect the pad to my PC so I cant use that. I had already downloaded the Samsung drivers for USB but I have never really had much success with the samsung drivers to be honest (had an S3 for several years).

All I want to do is run Play store and transfer files via USB :eek:

I am also using windows 7.

Your help will be appreciated.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GalaxyNotesTx:
Try uinstalling the usb drivers and reinstall. Do the same with kies, turn off all Anti virus as well.

Have you tried Towelroot?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mad07:
* Does you've enabled USB-Debug in the developer settings ?

* Does you've kicked Kies out of Memory, before you try it ?

* Does you've boot your device into Fastboot, before you try Auto-root ?

* If Odin is crashed during the prozess, use Odin 3.10.x ?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richo27:
* Second time I tried yes, this was the obvious cause for my first failure but still got the same error on the 2nd try

* No, how to do this?

* Fastboot? Auto root?

* Odin isnt crashing its just failing to write, I have tried 3.07 and 3.09, both with the same result.

I have managed to flash an Australian rom onto the tablet which has solved my play store problem which was the main reason for rooting in the first place, I may try to root this one in the future but I really dont have the knowledge about this to be confident, plus I have already voided the warranty on a brand new tablet just to get the Play store working so I am not too keen on messing with things any further.

Thanks for the suggestions anyway.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mad07:
What does you see on the screen from the tablet till the Problem occurred?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richo27:
During the flash at some point the screen on the tablet would have yellow and white vertical strips across the screen, then I would see failed in Odin.

After that The screen would just say "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again". From there I would have to power off then quickly get into download mode or the tablet will just turn on again with the above message. I recovered once through Kies, then I flashed the Australian ROM with Odin and that solved my problem, but haven't tried to root since.

Bump!​

for LG Optimus G​

Hi OG community. Bump for Optimus G is here.

Now OG users can use Custom Roms & Recoveries on LG locked Bootloader with ease!​

What is Bump?

How to Bump Recovery & Boot(kernel) images?

Does it mean that we can flash CyanogenMod based Roms on Stock Bootloader?

How about Custom Recoveries?

How to enter Recovery on stock Bootloader while Off?

Won't it perform a factory/hard reset?

How to Bump your CustomRoms?

Will it work for F180L? I am currently on your sling rom.. and want to update to lollipop with cynaogen 12..

Completely working for OptimusG :) maybe other lg devices too
[LG Optimus G (International)] hasan4791:
Could someone here please brief about bump ??
[LG Optimus G (International)] M.M.K:
You mean: What is bump?

Its kind of a hack for LG Stock bootloader! We can call it new unlock method!

You can flash anything that's been Bump'd, and Bump'ing a boot/recovery image is easy to do!

Two things you need to have for flashing custom roms:

1. Custom kernel- 2.Custom recovey on LG bootloader?

Now both are possible :)
[LG Optimus G (International)] jcpowell:
But the bootloader is unlockable, so isn't this just a pita...
[LG Optimus G (International)] M.M.K:
Although an unlocked bootloader is a better choice, Locked bootloader has it's own advantages for the ones who stay on stock based roms like myself...
[LG Optimus G (International)] hasan4791:
Yest i did complete KDZ and on stock now with rooted & locked bootloader ....Is it possible for me to use bump now ?
[LG Optimus G (International)] M.M.K:
Yep. Bump your desired recovery & rom( bump it's boot) with bump tool.

I've already uploaded bumped Philz touch.

You can flash the recovery with flashify app

Flash your rom :)

Nothing else you need to do
[LG Optimus G (International)] guidoido004:
so it flashes a custom rom based on stock kernel? we still need to make our own builds before or use the avaiable ones, right?
[LG Optimus G (International)] M.M.K:
That's only replacing an extracted & bumped boot file back in it's rom.zip which takes 30 secs (now your roms is signed-like G3 roms). This custom rom will bootup on both locked & unlocked bootloader.

Also no different it's stock based rom or cyanogen mod based.

The tool will only bump the boot. It does NOT change your boot.img
[LG Optimus G (International)] guidoido004:
what about recovery? works in the same way? something like a safestrap, i mean.
[LG Optimus G (International)] M.M.K:
I've described everything clearly in the op.

Flash a bumped cwm or Philz touch & as long as you don't flash another unbumped Recovery, you don't need to be worry. No problem if you flash another recovery.zip in recovery If you've already bumped its recovery.img.
[LG Optimus G (International)] Raeshabu:
Confirmed working.

Using Sling Kahroba on locked BL.

Offline charging is working

Thanks for the tool!

Cheers,

Rae
[LG Optimus G (International)] brandolicious:
Everytime we switch from one rom to another we have to bump the boot.img first before we flash through philz/cwm?
[LG Optimus G (International)] Raeshabu:
Once you bump the boot.img of a ROM (and added it on the ROM's zip), you can flash it on locked bootloaders. You don't have to bump it again if you want to re-flash it.

Just make sure that every ROM you will install on locked bootloaders is bumped. :good:

Cheers,

Rae
[LG Optimus G (International)] MasterFURQAN:
I'm currently on an unlocked boatloader with TWRP running ArtMOD V7 and solid kernel.. Can i "relock" the boatloader keeping the current configuration and start bumping ?

[LG Optimus G (International)] M.M.K:
Do you really want me to provide my bootloader relocker from recovery?!

There you go! Don't flash bumped twrp. It will perform factory reset.

The zip itself does flash Philz & boot & everything:)

https://mega.nz/#!EBZ3iBRQ!i2ql-rQlR3vv_V4luTt-Me7xofrZaoWDbOsYxv98fJw

But consider the bootloader is from 20aOpenEU. It has been tested on 20A openeu many times. It MUST work on the other regions kdz... If anyone wanna use it, they must reply the result :)

Then I will provide my bootloader unlocker from recovery ;)

Also do NOT copy

Anyone here successfully booted miui 8 on MTK 32 bit kernel 3.18.19 can help me with bootloop!?

I already built the rom based on AOSP android one but it bootloops
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
Hook it up and run a log at on your pc. That will tell you what is bootlooping. It that should have been the first hinges you did. It is rom building basics
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mysteryagr:
Thank you for your reply.

I already did that, and yes I edited defualt.prop inside the ramdisk to enable logcat during bootloop.

I have ported many roms, and also built some from source, and I noticed that I can only take logcat in bootloop if the rom is partially booted, notification led lights in red as a sign of that.

In Miui case the led doesn't light up, also I noticed that no space occupied in data partition (except for the extracted miui apps)

So I guess something prevent the rom to start and optimize any app, maybe it is the boot.img

If someone booted miui on MTK 32 bit chipset and MM kernel 3.18.19 can help me, I will be very thankful.

My device is Infinix Hot 2 running Android one 6.0 marshmallow, chipset: MT6580

Thanks in advance.

[ZTE Axon Pro] gflash2015:
Anyone have any problems getting the Axon work correctly with Windows?

I am trying to use helium to back up/restore data from my PC (I would use Titanium but I haven't rooted the Axon). I have no problems with my Nexus 5 but Windows is throwing all sorts of errors when I try to copy files to the Axon (any file starting with "." like ".media" it doesn't like. When trying to connect via adb (e.g. like running "adb devices" to see what devices are connected) I see no devices.When the Axon is connected in device manager I see under "Other devices" "ADB interface" but windows indicates no driver available.

Are there current ZTE drivers available somewhere? Helium points to some (ZTEUSBHostDriver5.2066.1.6-signed) but they look very old...with files dating back to 2010...and I couldn't get these to work anyway (I am currently using Windows 8.1).

Any feedback would be much appreciated. I have also raised a ticket with ZTE support and they said they would get back to me tomorrow.
[ZTE Axon Pro] augie7107:
That's strange. I'm on Windows 10, plugged in phone, drivers installed, showed up as A1P and moved all music to device without issue. Didn't try anything elaborate though.
[ZTE Axon Pro] Sithben24:
I've gotten ADB to recognize it, but it looks to be only for sideloading. I'm trying to figure out how to boot straight into fastboot, but I'm not sure of the button combination. So far I have, Volume down + Power goes into Factory Test Mode (FTM), but this isn't recognized in WIndows so far for me so I'm not sure how useful it is (unless the drivers could help). Volume up + power goes into Android system recovery which is where I can "Apply update from ADB" but I'm not able to fastboot from there for some reason (I was hoping it might be this easy). Also, if I "reboot to bootloader", the phone just boots up normally, which is also strange. Finally, Volume up and down + power just seems to boot into a blank screen with the Home button lit up. Not sure what this screen is, but ADB doesn't seem to recognize it either.

That being said, I'm not a pro at this so any help would be appreciated. I would love OEM unlock and root ASAP! Thanks.
[ZTE Axon Pro] dligon:
I've been trying the same thing with the button combos
[ZTE Axon Pro] Sithben24:
I don't think the camera button is doing anything. Do you know how to sideload SU or twrp/cwm? I think I could get that possibly. I also tried king root which looked like it worked but didn't.
[ZTE Axon Pro] StaticMoot:
I booted into the blank screen with the glowing home button. My computer is recognizing it as "Handset Diagnostic Interface (DFU)" I'm assuming this is a debug mode for the factory. No separate drivers downloaded for this mode.
[ZTE Axon Pro] gflash2015:
Hmmm. It seems to work better on a Mac. I didn't have any problems on the Mac using adb with the Axon.
[ZTE Axon Pro] Harfainx:
I used the Google drivers that come with the SDK tools from the Android SDK.
[ZTE Axon Pro] augie7107:
Any progress on root?
[ZTE Axon Pro] Sithben24:
I've used a few of the quick root tools, but nothing so far. Everything seems to fail at the end, and I still can't get into fastboot.
[ZTE Axon Pro] dligon:
watch it'll be backwards and you'll have to root it first to get into fastboot to unlock it.
[ZTE Axon Pro] gflash2015:
OK, I missed the obvious. When you connect to the PC and choose "Install Driver" it appears as a new drive on your PC with an auto-run to install the driver (I thought I had tried this before and didn't see anything). Now I can access adb from my PC. Still has problems with files starting with "." though (the Nexus 5 doesn't have this problem).
[ZTE Axon Pro] Sithben24:
Source code is out now. http://opensource.ztedevice.com/ should be the first option, A1P.

This section is pretty bare so I thought I'd share this app that I have been using to enable unlimited tethering. It was recently updated to work on LG 5.X devices and it really works. My phone does really heat up when it's enabled, but I guess that's a small price to pay to have to worry about the tethering cap.

[T-Mobile LG G4] donnybright:
I use it too, it was a little funky to set up but it works. I also agree on the heating up. It does have some issues charging while it is active. I left it on accidentally over night and it was plugged in. When I looked at it in the morning it was at 40% battery. Either way still worth it.
[T-Mobile LG G4] Android_Guy:
What configuration did you use? LTE Tether patch checked?
[T-Mobile LG G4] Biker1:
I've been successfully running WiFi Tether Router.

LTE Tether Patch is checked.

You have to set up an APN with IPv4.

Make sure you switch to the APN you set up with IPv4 protocol.

After you connect via WiFi to your pc, check to make sure WiFi Tether Router is using data from your unlimited phone data and not the Tmo Hotspot (5gb cap)
[T-Mobile LG G4] davy917:
For what it's worth, if you have unlimited data with tmo you should have 7gb of hot spot. It was increased automatically when they updated their plans.
[T-Mobile LG G4] Biker1:
I'm still showing 5gb for some reason.

I'll have to check into it, as I see that it was increased to 7gb from 5gb.

Thanks
[T-Mobile LG G4] Android_Guy:
I got an APN set up but it wont show network....regardless if WIFI is on or off on the phone...kinda stumped now :confused:
[T-Mobile LG G4] Biker1:
Set up the new APN with the same settings as your existing APN which is named T-Mobile LTE.

Double & triple check the settings.

The only setting which will be different is the IPv4 setting.

I named my new APN; T-Mobile LTE 2.

I also turned my WiFi off when I'm using WiFi Router.

Your pc should see WiFi Router which you will then connect to.

The above info is for my H811.

I see you have a Note 4.

I would think that my instructions should also work.

But look on the WiFi Router instructions to see if anything should be set differently for the Note 4.
[T-Mobile LG G4] Android_Guy:
I got a G4....sig needs to be updated (tho I wish I woulda kept the note honestly)

Thanks for the help!
[T-Mobile LG G4] hollywood084:
