[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeromeh:
Hi,

I was unlocked and rooted and I tried using the NRT to flash the M system image. It worked and I got the phone to boot once. It went through the Android is upgrading process and I used it for a few seconds and then it froze. I rebooted it by holding the power button. It now will not leave the bootloader. When I try to start it just flashes back into the bootloader. In the BL log it says "failed to validate boot image: ref=-1" So I tried re-flashing both manually and in the NRT. This is the error I get when flashing

(bootloader) failed to write primary GPT

(bootlaoder) failed to flash partition

FAILED (remote failure)

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Stop using a toolkit and do it manually https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images?hl=en
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeromeh:
I said that I did it both manually and with the toolkit. Sorry you feel that since I didn't want to type all that in you are better than me. I figured it out though. I couldn't get into any recovery so I used the toolkit to boot into the temporary twrp. Formatted all the partitions and got it to flash successfully.

From what I can tell it tried encrypting and it ruined the partitions.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thekingsteven:
My nexus 6 received the update by ota and I have experienced the same thing.... Tech support was no help telling me to go to a sprint store. I'm not sure what caused the issues here... My phone did the normal Android is upgrading thing and and I left I to do its thing it booted up and I used to it. Make a phone call. After the call my phone froze when I tried to open all apps. I restarted the phone in the same way the first post did. How ever my phone booted up to the new Android boot screen , however the phone restarted again and this time into the bootloader. Can anyone help me with this?
[General Questions and Answers] Dragnipurake:
Being a long time follower and fellow android enthusiast, I thought it might be a good idea for one such as myself to ask you XDA which between the following two devices I should upgrade to next.

I have narrowed it down to the Lg G3 or the One plus One. I am looking for moderate to high power for use in multitasking and gaming. I am also a audiophile so storage plays a key role in my devices. Long lasting battery is up there as well as I use my phone as my primary device before use of laptops or PC's. However above all I am a Mod and ROM junky, so community and development is by far the most crucial element.

I am torn between the two and find myself unable to make a decision. Any input would be much appreciated.

Note* I also have been considering the nexus 5, however I am a little wary because it is getting a little dated and there is no option for expandable storage. And 32gb is just not gonna cut.
[AT&T LG G4] nafnoid:
Okay, so I have screwed up my phone after owning it literally an hour and a half... Coming from Samsung, I'm afraid I'm not used to LG yet but I feel a crash course coming on... Anyway, when booting up I am getting "Security Error [Authentication Error #11]. The phone turns off after that. I'm assuming I've managed to bork myself in record time? Would I be able to fix it with stock firmware? If so, does anyone have that file? Any help would be very much appreciated!

(PS. I did search for (and found some) answers and thats actually why I am writing this now as I don't want to make another assumption and make things worse)

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] beret21:
I just want to ask if there is any way to unbrick my gt s5570. Its been flashed with a s5570i recovery ( By frustration ). No recovery mode no download mode the only and only way to get it detected by pc is to use volume up+home+power.

Odin always gets stuck at "setup connection" while flashing the stock rom every time.

What i have tried ?

Every button combo that exist nothing works result is always only switched off cell.

Pc detects it correctly only with voulme up+ home plus + power

Odin always gets stuck at setup connection while trying to flash.

Pressing the download mode buttons with the mobile connected to pc and insert in the battery also doesn't work.

Why i flashed it with a wrong recovery ?

Searching for the CWM 4.4.x.x i got frustrated i couldn't find it any where( spend a day almost ) finally saw one for s5570i installed it ( I though what can go wrong i have odin and download mode :D ) and after restart its bricked.

Why i still have hope ???

Its detected by a computer there " is " a way to make it work again and i mean it but it might have not been founded yet.

Any SD card hack that might help me boot it and recover it ??

Any any method just tell me to try EXCEPT JTAG.

I have been on xda since 2013, not as a member but i have been flashing this little thing with every CM rom that comes out with the help of xda forum.

I am not a mobile freak but i try modifying every thing i own every thing.

What i have learnt is that recovery mode is like bios and ROM is like windows as simple as that. Don't play with bios do whatever u want to do with windows.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] beret21:
I think jtag is the only way . Have been searching on internet for 3 days non stop but for wrong recovery zero solution are online. Except if someone works on a new solution :(

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fota666:
Hey,

I have a Motorolo Moto E 2nd generation device.

I had to reset my phone because it stucked in a boot loop. It was rooted and I have TWRP installed.

After the reset the Play Store detects my Uninstalled apps as Installed.

So I'm unable to install any app (the Play Store neither).

If I try to install an app from the store, then this message pops up:

".. will be installed on your device soon"

But not really....

I think that it's possible from the Play app to delete an app, but I'm unable to install the Google Play app (because the Play thinks it's already Installed). And from the Play website you can't delete any app.

Could somebody help me?

Thanks

Not that familiar with odin or samsung, previously htc :)

using odin in a windows 7 virtual machine under ubuntu, if that makes a difference

Trying to flash australian optus firmware over singapore firmware my phone came with but odin fails iafter initilization so not sure where to go next

really want australian settings and keyboard etc

Cant upload a screencapture sadly but odin fails after the setupConnection step

and returns complete (write) operation failed?

using latest drivers etc? Anyone got an idea of what im doing wrong?

Do i need to activate something in developer options or something to allow odin to connect?
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rrambert:
It is really straight forward. Download the Samsung drivers so you computer can recognize your phone. Download the firmware, put phone in download mode using ODIN 3.10.7.1.

In the past when I flashed firmware it wiped my phone and reinstalled all my files. When I flashed tonight I see it changed my Kernel back to stock, but all my data and files were still there.

Well that is how you would ODIN your phone back to stock.

Hi guys, I am using [MENTION=3218989]fa1zali[/MENTION] Optimus ROM v4.4.2, I got some issues so I am thinking of installing the same ROM again. I don't know much about android development but, if I extract the ROM package and replace the old apps from "root/system/app", replace them with the new ones(renaming the new ones with same name) and zip it again. Is it going to work or not? because if they are logged in some file then its not going to work.

And if I add some more apps there, they will get installed or not?

I am thinking of updating all apps before installation if its possible.

Thanks
[XDA Assist] Calin:
Hi and thank you for using XDA Assist :)

At soon as the apps are compatible with the device yes you can replace the apps in the zip with the ones you want but be aware that not all the apps can be removed or replaced. If you add more apps into the system/app folder, yes those apps will also get installed.

Good luck!

No updates to uninstall. Don't want to uninstall and reinstall.

Searched around and found that the app has some issues with apn's, and that it's a Google issue but could not find an apn workaround.

It was fine a month ago, had sent some images to wife's note 4 that I had downloaded from Google images, still having the same images in the gallery I tried resending images, but now it fails to send, WiFi or regular data.

Size of image makes no difference, small, med, or large it doesn't want to send any image just text.

I can receive any image or video, not a problem receiving, just sending, even images that get sent to me thru messenger I can't send.

Many off the roms are using backup scripts for gapps so if you had gapps installed then they would stay installed

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
There is something backing it up because no aosp rom comes with gapps be default as you can't build them in line with the rom. So there has to be something backing them up. Also what rom are you using? Is it official?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uqbar:
It's in the OP: CM12.1 nightly.

I have TWRP 2.8.7.0 to wipe and flash.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
That still doesn't say if it's an official build or the device. I have just looked at cm build setup and they don't enclude gapps at all so I would look at the person pushing the builds out. Most have stopped using cm so I'm not really sure what people are adding to those roms.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uqbar:
I don't know how many peoples are pushing CM night lies.

Anyway my source is this one:

http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=flo

I have trusted it as official since years now.

Has anyone else tried a fresh install?

Which files belong to the Google Play Services?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uqbar:
I think in the end you were right.

I tried once again with my recovery (TWRP) and, instead of the default wipe (meant to be for a new ROM) I manually wiped the partitions: cache, dalvik cache, system and data.

By doing so the Google stuff disappeared.

By the way, as I explained, the only Goggle stuff was the Google Play Services and the Google Play Store, nothing more, while the GAPPS I used in the past were also containing Mail, Hangouts and stuff.

Thanks a lot.

I've got an old Lenovo S6000 which, like every other Mediatek device, has incomplete source code for the drivers and the kernel. As a small project, I would like to try and get Android Lollipop up and running to an extent where:

the system boots to the GUI;

the Wi-Fi works;

and the touchscreen works.

just to start off.

The device currently is rooted, with ClockworkMod recovery installed, and I can create Android back-ups of the system. Could I potentially take the kernel and the proprietary blobs and build them in to a CyanogenMod 12 update? Or would the kernel have to be patched to support the new features in Lollipop (the current OS running on the device is Android 4.2.2, and there have been no other working attempts to create a custom ROM for the device)?

[Android One (First-Generation) Cross-Device Genera] psiknight99:
Hello.

Its been a while and I've been using the SD as an internal memory for a while. While I love this feature there is a very weird thing with this feature that if you move an app to SD and if it gets an update, it gets moved back to the internal storage which is slightly inconvenient. However more inconvenient is the fact that all the app data gets lost in this updation procedure.

Would any kind soul suggest a workaround or a script to get around this annoying glitch? I mean I really love this feature but it obviously needs polish from Google.

Also another thing is while shifting these apps back to SD, it sometimes says not enough space (despite having lots of it). On the second try it shifts. Any idea what's up with this?

Thanks!
[Android One (First-Generation) Cross-Device Genera] sachatterjee:
I am having the exact same issues and the same complain.

Being on a device having only 4GB of internal storage (that too only 2.28 GB usable) this "adopt as internal" feature in Marshmallow really came as a boon. However with these issues the whole idea becomes worthless.

I did a bit of search on Google about this feature. For nexus phones on marshmallow there is a "Migrate data" option to the SD card adopted as internal. However this is not available for our devices. It only shows up in the internal storage and lets you migrate from SD to internal? Grrrr....what good would that do? :confused:

Any kind of workaround would really help and convince me to keep this phone for another year maybe ;)
[Android One (First-Generation) Cross-Device Genera] psiknight99:
I think you're getting confused. We too have the same option but this moving back to the internal storage on updation is something Google needs to address..
