Keep in mind that you cannot unlock the bootloader in 5.1 until you get into the settings, activate the Developer Options (by tapping Build Number a bunch of times), and tick "Allow OEM Unlock".

If you cannot get into the settings at least once, you will not be able to install TWRP or flash anything.

What you need to do if you are stuck on the activation screen is wait 5-10 minutes while the activation runs and fails. After some time you will have the option to connect to wifi. After that you can get into the settings menu.

Old topic, but USC carrier activation can be bypassed by simply removing the SIM card during initial setup.
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harryspar:
Good to know!

By the way I don't see a way in the menus to enable GSM/WCDMA. Do you know how to do that?
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtermmin:
Download "Network" or "4G Switch" from the Play Store. Open, scroll down a little and look for "LTE/CDMA auto". Change that to "LTE/GSM auto".

If that doesn't work, you might need to do the same workaround that is needed for the Verizon model:

[MENTION=3867776]xtermmin[/MENTION]. Thanks for the advice but didn't work at all. I use the phone overseas and had unlocked the sim tray to get to work with another carrier since I while ago (4 to 5 months ago) with this method (http://xdaforums.com/moto-e-2015/general/how-to-verizon-moto-e-2015-gsm-network-t3098953).

As of the morning of today, upon turning the phone up, it didn't want to connect nor Wi-Fi neither GSM. I made a factory reset and right after the Verizon logo screen the phone get on the wizard screen for a few seconds (5 to 8 secs) and then leave me on the screen saying "Pleas wait, this may take a few minutes". When I read your comment thought that could be, but there is no change after been done.
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtermmin:
If removing the SIM doesn't allow you to get past the activation screen, then it sounds like something on your ROM might have corrupted or something. Have you tried reflashing the stock firmware?

[XDA Assist] XDA Visitor:
hello, i was trying to change my lenovo tablet android version (played with the build.prop) and rebooted but my tablet shows only the logo and gets stuck, i tried to hard-reset it and wiped all data but the same problem still exists, is it bricked ? and how to unbrick it ? thank you.
[XDA Assist] OfficerJimLahey:
Hello, and welcome to XDA! :cowboy:

It would be what is called soft-bricked, but there are a couple options around that. You can either use custom recovery to adb in, mount /system and fix the build.prop file, or flash back to stock ROM.

Here are some resources for both options:

> Android Development and Hacking > Android General > lenovo a1000 full details of flashing ,recovery, etc

> Lenovo Thinkpad Tablet > Thinkpad Tablet General > Flash Stock rom on Lenovo IdeaTab A1000-F

Please note that there are variants for your device, so the stock ROM(s) available may not work for you. Be sure to match the letter after a1000 (e.g. a1000G) or you can run into worse problems.

Any further questions can be directed to the above threads, or the general thread:

Hi guys ,

I'm new to android and this forum . I was an apple user previously . Last year I gifted my mom with a Moto G2 , unlocked variant . It was working fine . She rang me before 3 days and said the phone misbehaves . It heats a lot and suddenly battery drops to zero , when I connect it to the port it reads "100%" . I factory resetted the mobile and it booted normally with usual battery info . Suddenly sim 1 (I had Vodafone ) went offline , while sim 2 (BSNL ) was alive and sound . So I swapped the sims so that BSNL was working fine in both the ports and Vodafone works fine in none . I thought it's a problem with sim so that the next day I stepped into the store and I purchased a new sim . Now the mobile has turned evil . It's not accepting the new sim too . I have tried with multiple carriers , but it's not accepting in either of the ports . But it works fine with BSNL alone . Can you guys help me to overcome this ? Because this was my first ever gift to my mom .

Note this too :

With BSNL sim , I went into to about>sim status I could able to see those readings

With other sims , It shows zero in all the port .

If you can get into stock recovery..then do a "factory reset" also erase cache via stock recovery..then try to reboot to home screen..if bootloop..then go back into "download mode" and flash the ROM again via Odin..

If you have a custom recovery installed..you will need to flash the stock recovery independantly via Odin..then flash the stock OS via Odin..again

Something is a mis-match or you have a currupted partition..

I technically know how to add icons to the htchomeplug i just don't know how to change the icon

hklm\software\htc\htchomplug\*add new key*

my problem is the iconindex number, which seems to control the icon. when i change it to a different number the icon disappears but if you click over the area where the icon was the program will still launch.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Moskus:
You can use RViewer (google it, don't remember where I found it), or just go with 0.

This is mentioned in the "original post" on the HTChomeplug modifications. :)
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] irus:
thanks for the help

HTC HOMEPLUG

First is access using the registry editor to this entry:

/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/HTC/HTCHomeplug

There is the configuration of the plugin. There we will find two entries pointing to the first two icons (Battery and Rotation) that seems to be configured in a different way that the rest of the icons. Those are the two DWORD entries:

PowerIconSlot with value of 0 (this means the first position in the plugin)

RotateIconSlot with value of 1 (this means the second position)

The rest of the positions in the HTCHomeplug appears like KEY entries with names from 2 to 5 meaning positions 3 to 6 in the plugin bar.

Inside each key (2 to 5) we find 3 values (or entries):

1- iconindex DWORD type of Decimal which contains 103 in the case of entry KEY 2

** I used a program called RViewer (for PPC) develop by Vicott Wong to find the iconindex**

2- LaunchApPath STRING contains the path to the executable file associated to the icon

3- ResPath STRING contais the path to the resource file which contais the icon image poited by iconindex entry. This path points to a DLL or EXE file containing the icon image.

So... since we want to add a icon/application we need to create the entry KEY 6 and we must create both STRING entries and DWORD one inside the KEY 6.

To add Tomtom Navigator in the HTCHomeplug (as an example) I added:

iconindex = 101

LaunchApPath = \Program files\Navigator\Tomtom Navigator.exe

ResPath = \Program files\Navigator\Tomtom Navigator.exe

So I'm using the icon storaged in the Tomtom Navigator executable file itself and my Tomtom is in the path I show in the entry. Off course this could not match your installation.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RLM703:
As long as you can get to your bootloader you should be fine, unless your having eMMC issues which im running into right now. If this is WugFresh Nexus Root Toolkit you should be able to use that to complete all the tasks needed for last resort restore. First though, since you have recovery, ill assume TWRP since i think that is default for NRT, you can sideload a new rom if you dont have it on your device right now. Install adb/fastboot if you dont have it already.

Google USB Drivers: https://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html

1. Boot into recovery

2. Tap Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> Check Dalvik Cache, System, Cache, Data (Not Internal Storage, unless you want to wipe your internal SD) -> Swipe to Wipe

3. Go back home once your done (lower left home button)

4. Tap Advanced -> ADB Sideload -> Swipe to Start Sideload

5. Connect to your PC and start ADB from terminal/command prompt.

6. type adb sideload [location of cyanogenmod-update.zip]

7. repeat again with Gapps or boot, then download to device and flash normal in recovery.

If that fails or you just want to return to stock and start over:

1. boot into bootloader (turn device off, press vol down + pwr)

2. If you have had the drivers installed before then you should be fine, when the device is booted into recovery or just booting (before bootloader) your computer may not recognize it but should once bootloader is loaded.

3. connect to computer and select the option under Restore/Upgrade/Downgrade: Current status: Device Soft-Bricked/Bootloop and click Flash Stock + Unroot

4. Follow NRT prompts

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LittleBoyDavy:
Good afternoon everyone,

I've been using Android for a few years now, but a month ago I had a loan of an iPad Air 2 - I bloody hated it! However, there was one app that really impressed me: Pixelmator.

It had really powerful features, like being able to hide blemishes on photographs, plus all the usual stuff like blurring areas of the picture or sharpening them. It was also a really good painting app. I wrote a review of some of its features on BeyondThePC (but as I'm a new user I cannot give you a link to the co(dot)uk site) >:>.

I wondered if anyone knew of an Android equivalent? It's really the image touch up features I'm interested in - not that my face has so many blemishes I have to spend hours hiding them!

Thanks in advance for your help!

It sleep has painting functionality, but I am yet to look at that. Only problem is you have to pay up to be able to work with large pictures.
