[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Calvinagar1:
Right now I am on a Nexus 5 With Android 5.1.1 not rooted. I had a rokt installed, but I did a factory reset and do not have it anymore and while I was rooted, I did not install a custom recovery or flash acustom ROM. Anyway,whenever I attempt to install the system update, it runs smoothly (it counts down from 10, reboots, etc) but, when it actually comes to installing the update, it fails. It starts with an Android with its stomach opened up and a ball shape spinning with a blue progress bar under it. At about 25% finished, the Android is laying on its back and a red exclamation on it and it says update failed. Please help me fix this I really want Android M.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wakamatsu:
From the info you've given, I'd say that the update failed because your phone is rooted.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Calvinagar1:
I used rootcheckerootchecke and it said I do not have root installed.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wakamatsu:
Proof is in the pudding. The update failed. You were rooted and, unless you left out some info, all you did was a factory reset. A factory reset doesn't touch root.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Calvinagar1:
Ok, any idea how to uninstall root and ultimately fix the problem?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Calvinagar1:
Should I flash a factory image?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wakamatsu:
That's what I would do.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProoN:
Hi, a friend has a Galaxy S5 (MetroPCS) he wanted me to unlock. He works at a hotel and any items found in rooms go to their "Lost and found" thing for a 60 day period. This was found and never claimed, so he wants to use it as his own. I've looked through it a bit and it appears it was used by a former drug dealer around town. Huzzah. Anyway.

It appears to already be rooted and has TWRP already installed, though still uses the stock ROM.

My questions are- How would I go about doing a fresh install on it? Also, is there a free way to unlock them or do I have to go through one of those unlock websites?

Here are the specs

Edit: I found this site, http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SM-G900T1

I see there's a newer version with 5.1.1. Would I be able to flash that without any major issues instead of the one already on it?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uzair40:
Upgrade it using Smart Switch.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProoN:
Just an update- I successfully used SmartSwitch to upgrade the phone, kudos for that.

Also ended up going through cellunlocker.net to unlock it. They even sent an unfreeze code with it.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WarpedMonkeys:
Hi!

Little background: I've had about every Nexus device that has been released and I've rooted them all, changed all their custom recovery, installed XPosed and fiddled around with ROMs all manually using adb and fastboot (never used a 1-click tool). Of course this is all relatively easy, since you can just go back and flash the original image if you mess something up.

Problem is, I messed up the LG G Pad and I'm kinda stuck. What I did to mess it up:

- No way I'm going without root and there's no way to flash a custom recovery

- Install Kingroot apk, ran it, got root

- Install supersu-me to remove kingroot and replace with SuperSU (the one I usually use and install via a zip in custom recovery)

- Reboot device....bootloop

- Find out the magical sequence to factory reset, do it

- Same bootloop

So it's now just stuck at the LG Life's Good (no it's not!!!) and I can't seem to be able to get adb to work anywhere, I've also gone into download mode, but I can't do much in there.

I'm open to all suggestions :o
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Booyo:
Solution found?

Have you found a solution yet?
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WarpedMonkeys:
Sadly my solution was to send it back. I said it stopped working after a Factory Reset, which isn't totally false. They accepted the RMA and I'm not going to root the new one I received.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bryan858:
Got stuck on my 495. Unfortunately I bought it second hand so I don't know if they will warranty my repair. err.... I'm hoping to find a solution. Did you ever try the LG Bridge software? I've had no luck with it.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chimera420:
Hello. To root an lg-v497 simply use the mobile go trial on pc. To reset the tablet if it is in a boot loop simply use the lg support tool. You need to install the v500 driver for it to connect to the tablet. Factory reset will not fix it. You must re-flash firmware in this way.

Of course this may not be of use to many but it is what i have found works best. Hope this helps somebody. I went through that exact same scenario as you did, OP, and that is how i solved it. BUT now i am trying to find a way to crack the bootloader because i want to fix or get rid of 5.0.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcelotto:
Any Chance you could put links to the support tool and the driver? If I have KingRoot on already, should I restart or just uninstall before rooting with Mobile Go?
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chimera420:
My account is apparently too new to post the links but just google the lg mobile usb driver and go to lg support page for the tool

To do a fresh flash you go to update recovery in the top menu when connected.You may have to fiddle with it a bit, good luck.

Flash it before using mobilego. Kingroot is a plague and you should get rid of it first.

Download flash tool for Sony and hold volume down and then connect USB to Pc making sure flashtool is on. The phone should get connected in flash mode then flash stock rom
[Sony Xperia E3] BNBN85:

Are you holding volume down button? And then connect USB. Share attachment what shows in your pc when you connect it. Remember you have to press and hold volume down until you connect USB to Pc. And make sure that flashtool is open when you connect USB else it won't connect in flash mode
[Sony Xperia E3] BNBN85:
hi again

i appreciate your time and your world but i stay in the same situation.

well my pc is seem to be don't show the xperia e3 d2206 as flash-mode or the Mobil can't enter in this mode, the flash tool say "device connect with USB debugging off" (is this a problem? how to enable USB debugging with the brick phone).

So i installed the Sony PC companion and before do the repair thing to update or install the firmware my device admin in PC had shown me a SEMC flash device, now when the Sony PC companion do it the repair things, the devices admin show me a SOMC flash device and i can't flash with the Sony PC companion too, because i stay in the same situation i cant put the xperia e3 D2206 in flash mode.

thanks in advance

i wait for your answer.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whitelightnin3006:
So I was trying to root my bros phone and install the hidden menu so I could write prls. After gaining root I installed that hidden menu .zip thru recovery. That froze the phone on the sprint spark screen. So like an idiot, in recovery, I formatted /boot path. Can this be fixed? If so, what do I do? I am out of town and don't have very good service, so its really hard to Google what may help. Can it be fixed at all? If so, what files do I need? I have Odin ready to go and can also get to recovery. When booting it only goes to the screen that says Samsung galaxy s5. That's as far as it will boot.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
You'll need to flash a stock ROM from sammobile .com firmware section

Enter the model S5 (ie: mine is the G900F) into the firmware section, choose your region from the dropdown, then pick the ROM you want

And if that fails, you'll possibly need to flash the PIT file at the same time as the ROM - choose the correct S5 model from here

OK cool. So I don't know the exact model though. Is there a way to find that out with the serial number that's behind the battery? Its a Sprint s5 active.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
Best way is to boot to download mode from a powered off state

[XDA Assist] deepfloyd:
Hello everyone,

I have a Chinese clone of a Lenovo P780W (doesn't look like the actualy P780 at all) for which I wanted to find a custom ROM that would work but was unable to do so. I already have CWM recovery on it. Before I started thinkering with it I made a full system backup with some software, but unfortunately it was few months ago so I don't remember which method I used (I am assuming it was ADB but not sure). Anyway, the image is in a zip file and the contents is as below in the screenshot:

s8.postimg.org/qnck3pyw5/2015_10_25_15_45_38.png

My question is, how would I restore it now seeing how my phone won't boot up and CWM won't flash it. I tried ADB Restore and it's asking me to confirm on the phone itself. Is there any other way to do that or repackage that system image to a flashable zip format?

Thanks a lot!
[XDA Assist] deepfloyd:
Solved

It turns out this was the CWM backup. I managed to create a flashable zip by grabbing the boot.img, extracting the system.ext4.tar to system, and a META-INF from some random image. I combined it into a zip and it flashed.

Still would be nice to find a proper rom for it. Right now it's ALPS-JB3-MP-V1-6-MOLY, I wonder if a newer version of the ALPS rom would work?

I honestly have never owned a real stock android phone before, I have always had some type of CM build. While setting up my new nexus 5X yesterday I noticed how few options I had to choose from for ringtones and notifications sounds, so I copied the ogg files from my Samsung Galaxy S4 running OctOS 5.1 and thought I would share that for anyone else interested on here.

You can download the zip archive here: http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=06198885333845489395

Thanks, I was looking for something like that. CyanMessage has been my SMS ringtone for years.

Thanks for this! The 5x ringtones and notification sounds suck. This make it way better! I just Un zipped on my computer and copy and pasted them into the ringtones folder on my 5x. Easy pesy ☺?
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] Antar05:
This is great! I'd recommend grabbing Alarms as well--I manually copied over Platinum from my old phone, as I'm just used to it waking me up in the morning (aside: THANK YOU GOOGLE for adding gradual volume increase to the 10/28 update to Clock!)
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] nvmichael:
eleets, How do you copy and paste to the phones folder?

Thanks
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] eleets:
I Un zipped the file into a folder on my laptop.

Hooked up the 5x and in the pull down menu on the phone it gives an option for file transfer. Click that.

Then I took the unzipped file and dropped it into the ringtones folder of the internal storage of the 5x.

[Moto X Q&A] PiousInquisitor:
You dont want to use a USB cable? You can use Airdroid or KDE Connect (you don't need KDE for this to work). However Its been years since I've had issues transferring files to and from Linux with a USB cable.
[Moto X Q&A] Quantumstate:
I don't mind using the USB cable, although I'd rather use wifi. I just need some way of moving files.

Airdroid and KDE Connect aren't available in CentOS 7.1. I'll look into them further, but I'd also like to know more about this "MTP" mode.
[Moto X Q&A] liveroy:
Change the transfer protocol from MTP to PTP, it's usually under the storage menu in a sub menu there. NIX based systems support that and you should be able to see all types of files, not just photos.

If that doesn't work for some reason, the you can use WiFi file Explorer, which works quite well.
[Moto X Q&A] crack.mech:
I have no issues with USB in Ubuntu14.04, U12.04 had some issues with MTP libraries, but now all sorted out.

Hey Guys, any of you still messing with these things? I'm down to one device now (Don't get to see two of the kids anymore), and the one I have has a bleached screen. It works vis the HDMI cable, but that's a pain for development. Anyone know if anyone managed to get any other ROMs working for this besides the one port someone had working a year ago? I see from the thread it looks like NABI released an update for the device. I guess I could install it and see what's up and maybe try and make some new lock screens or boot animations if anyone is still using these.

Anyone have one of these they would be willing to donate as well? If I do get back in to working on this thing, one with a working screen would help.
