[Nokia N1] MagnaCar:
Hi, i'm new here :) !

I just bought a Nokia N1 from Eglobalcentral.fr, the tablet has Google Play Store installed, Youtube, Chrome etc.

After the first boot, I've connected the tablet to my PCs (Windows 10, 8.1 and 7)... On the 3 PCs I've got the same error " Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)", I've tried to install the drivers manually (grab on the intel site, version 1.10.0 and 1.5.0 on xda) but no luck at all.

Do you have a solution?
[Nokia N1] sunnyb7532:
Just a guess - but since the USB controller is an older one, have you tried an earlier driver such as 1.9.0. Intel Version 1.10.0 might be for a different Intel USB controller entirely.

Also, you might want to make the thread title more specific to get the help you want.

Hey guys,

So I went from B145>B148 and now I'm stuck. Can't root or go >B304>B312>B327...what I'm saying is, I'd rather go back to B145. I was very much fine with that version (rooted w/ KingUser then removed and installed w/ SuperSu). Everything else fine. Just wanted to see if there was any difference on B148, not too excited to go LP.

Any ideas how to go back down B145??

thanks!! :good::good:
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jfer671:
Anything, anyone?

Downgrade firmware? Something?
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jfer671:
Solved!

Alright, so with only a bunch of page views and no real help from anyone here on the forum...I was able to finally figure everything out on my own.

I was originally at C00B145 (and rooted, loved it), got curious with everyone talking bout the many other upgrades so >C00B148 (lost root, hated it. Stuck on firmware, couldn't root and for some reason could't go further), probably just me. Decided and risked on V100R001C900B308 rollback (success) but stuck again on temp transition, couldn't go anywhere. Failed on B137, B137SP03, B141, B145, and B148.

Solved: Re-flashed V100R001C900B308>C900B300 (rollback)>MT7-L09C900B324, backup recovery, system restore>kingroot, then installed SuperSU (deleting kingroot).

Rooted MT7-L09C900B324 5.1. Now, the only thing I'm missing so far is the Motion Control, which I only deal with the slider (not a big deal to me). I really like the double-window, knuckle/screenshot, and the few other interesting new features. Lots of ppl saying they don't have 4g available, but mine's fine...can switch between 3G/4G.

I did use two different region's firmware for the solve. No lags, and actually has good fluid response. Gonna keep on 5.1 for at least a week and see what's good on battery life, response and features...if I like it'll stay, otherwise I had no problem on B145 and might just go back down to KK.

Cheers!

[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digitallure:
I'm coming from the LG G3, so the features I'm inquiring about is...

(1) the screen on sensor. It keeps the screen from locking if you're looking at your phone.

(2) The hide folders in the gallery. I have a lot of music and my album art is a eye screenshot I just want to search photo albums I want to open.

(3) The Capture+ was simpler to use. None of this freehand cropping.

Am i missing something here to make it right?
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s_special:
Yeah, I definitely noticed these missing features. I guess they're trying to remove things people may consider ui bloat. Idk
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gamin92:
[MENTION=3307796]digitallure[/MENTION] point (2) there's a "lock" option to hide them from gallery. Has to be done for each picture, can't do it with folders.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Swizzle82:
They omitted smart screen from the G4 and V10, probanly something to do with the changes they made to the cameras. You can lock/hide individual files using a pass code. Capture+ was removed since they started using chrome as the default browser.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digitallure:
Dang. I used these features often too. Thanks for the responses

Other How-tos

Flashing images via fastboot

1- plug watch into computer and start ADB

2- Type in

"adb reboot bootloader"

"fastboot flash boot ( drop boot image here)"

"fastboot flash recovery ( drop recovery image here)"

"fastboot flash system ( drop system image here)"

__________________________________________

Returning to Stock

1- Download the stock images from the downloads section to your computer

2- Follow the above instructions for flashing images

3- Now on the watch click one of the arrows till you see recovery then click the circle (center button)

4- You will see a droid laying down with a red triangle

Swipe from the top left of the screen down to the bottom right

Now you're in recovery

Now you want to do a factory reset
[LG Watch Urbane] Robshr:
I would just like to give a big thanks to those of you kind enough to hit the thanks button and that goes to a select few as I've had well over 100 downloads, 2100 views and only 21 thanks. I see it all over we really need to show the people that make this site great some appreciation
[LG Watch Urbane] mrka:
Awesome work! Keep it up!
[LG Watch Urbane] meand0g1:
So I only have to flash the prerooted system image and I'm fine to be rooted?

(TWRP for a backup at first of course..)
[LG Watch Urbane] Robshr:
Yes that's what I'm hoping for. After you flash it you can test by typing

"adb shell"

"su"

And you should see something like this

root@g3:/ #

If you do then super su is installed and you're rooted
[LG Watch Urbane] Robshr:
Just wondering if it all worked out for you?
[LG Watch Urbane] meand0g1:
Will test it when I own the watch..;)
[LG Watch Urbane] anthonyg45157:
Doing all of this right now. Will report back when finished! Thanks man

Okay so I unlocked bootloader, flashed twrp and rebooted into recovery. I can't backup anything because nothing is mounted. I've tried mounting though twrp with no luck whatsoever. So I tried erasing system and boot using fastboot to flash system image and skins kernel. But when I reboot the watch it boots straight into recovery....
[LG Watch Urbane] Robshr:
Boot into fastboot and if you already have skin's kernel flashed try just flashing the system image and make sure you wipe the caches Dalvic/cache

Questions- did you flash su or did you use a prerooted image. I think su needs to be installed to do a back up
[LG Watch Urbane] anthonyg45157:
I'm using preroot image for skins kernel with kernel auditor . I've tried using

Fastboot flash system "drag and drop system.img" then

Fastboot flash boot "drag and drop skins boot.img"

Then reboot and it goes straight into recovery

The only way I could get data to show up in twrp was formatting data
[LG Watch Urbane] Robshr:
I'm not sure what happened but somewhere along the line a step was missed or something was either flashed wrong or a corrupt download. I would say to stay over boot into recovery and do a factory data rest and start over
[LG Watch Urbane] anthonyg45157:
Gonna try download stock images and flash those to see if I can e en get this thing to boot, it doesn't even try it goes straight into recovery.
[LG Watch Urbane] Robshr:
That's strange because I just had to reset my watch back to stock and prerooted with my above post and everything went fine

Please keep me updated so if I have to I can make any necessary changes or help in anyway
[LG Watch Urbane] anthonyg45157:
Was looking over the steps again from OP and it looks like step 10 is missing? Maybe that's something, I'm starting from the beginning

---------- Post added at 07:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:16 PM ----------

Starting to lose hope, I've even tried erasing all data, booting into fastboot

Fastboot flash system (stock system.img)

Fastboot flash boot (stock kernel boot.img)

Whenever I reboot it goes straight into recovery , I've never even saw the android screen
[LG Watch Urbane] Robshr:
The missing step ten was just a mistake

Fastboot flash only the stock recovery then try to boot into recovery and you should see an upside down android just swipe across the screen to get into stock recovery then fastboot stock image and follow the instruction to root again

Please message me with any other problems as to no clog up the thread

As I will post our findings later
[LG Watch Urbane] anthonyg45157:
Figured everything out for anyone following this thread. I ended up starting over after formatting data. I flashed everything stock, flashed modified system image and skin1980 boot image then booted rom, went back andf flashed twrp again and everything is working as expected. Not really sure what caused the issue,

Thanks to [MENTION=4888382]Robshr[/MENTION] for all of his help
[LG Watch Urbane] cubandanger05:
I installed a different file manager on the watch just like you installed the kernel auditor. this file manager gives the message "sdcard inaccessible" when I try to open the sdcard. Do you think that this is doing this because it was installed in the tmp folder? Do you recommend paying for the paid app and I should have access to the sdcard?

Also I was unable to pull the backup from the watch, some error stating some file was not created because it wasn't found?

any ideas?
[LG Watch Urbane] Robshr:
As far as the file manager it depends on what one you are using does it state the the free version can't access the sdcard otherwise it should be able to read it

Not sure about the error message you're getting without seeing it

But it sounds like you didn't first copy the image to the sdcard and that's why it can't find it or didn't give it sufficient time to copy before you gave the pull command
[LG Watch Urbane] cubandanger05:
I'll play with it some more tonight.

Is it supposed to have "Full SElinux support is present"?
[LG Watch Urbane] DoubleL03:
Hello guys sorry but I thought there was mention that of someone making a video on how to do gain root on the urbane. Normally I would go ahead and try but I never really screwed around with abd. I have always had samsung phone and never had to screw around with it to gain root before.

Sorry for the noob question.
[LG Watch Urbane] cubandanger05:
I figured out the issue with pulling the back up from the watch. Per your instructions:

"adb pull /sdcard/TWRP/BACKUPS/*************/ /drop your urbane folder here)/"

so I literally typed adb pull /sdcard/TWRP/BACKUPS/*************/ / and dragged the folder here

not realizing the second / was not supposed to go there, you meant for it to be a (

on the other hand, I managed to install the file manager for wear on your thread, and I was able to access the sdcard, so far so good.

question, after installing the modified kernel, to go back to the stock kernel, I would simply flash the boot.img correct? or perhaps restore my back up.

---------- Post added at 03:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:24 PM ----------

[MENTION=4692599]DoubleL03[/MENTION] , the process is very simple, if you follow the instructions on the thread you can get root in no time. One thing I don't believe is mentioned is that you must also download the Google USB drivers.
[LG Watch Urbane] Robshr:
Links too the drivers on now in the op.

They were mentioned in the first paragraph of the op
[LG Watch Urbane] cubandanger05:
Excellent. Now you should change this:

"adb pull /sdcard/TWRP/BACKUPS/*************/ /drop your urbane folder here)/"

To this:

"adb pull /sdcard/TWRP/BACKUPS/*************/ (drop your urbane folder here)/"

It confused the he'll out of me during the process. Couldn't figure out why I couldn't pull the backup. I guess I was following instructions too to the T lol.
[LG Watch Urbane] Robshr:
Will do sorry typo
[LG Watch Urbane] clevebb:
All three options for system.img are roughly the same size. Is there a way to free up some space in the system partition? Right now I am using stock /system and skins /boot and TWRP recovery
[LG Watch Urbane] bighit101:
[MENTION=4888382]Robshr[/MENTION]

Hey Guys,

I am having problem putting TWRP on the watch :(. I have tried it atleast 6-7 times now. Here is what I have done:

1. Followed the OP direction word for word. Have all the adb drivers installed.

2. Adb reboot to bootloader to OEM unlocked successfully. Then phone reboots normally.

3. PROBLEM: When trying to Adb fastboot recovery!!! Phone reboots into fastboot, I do the adb command, and it says done. But, When I go to recovery, it just shows the fallen android sign and nothing else.

Things tried:

1. Tried TWRP 2.8.6.0, 7.0 and the new 3.0.0.0

2. Tried using Windroid Android Toolkit also.

I am not sure what I am doing wrong? I read somewhere I need to manually reboot the phone after unlocking bootloader instead of doing adb reboot? How would I do that?

I would really appreciate any help.

Thanks guys
[LG Watch Urbane] dr. xp55:
Hey guys, so I just got this watch couple weeks ago. This past week, I finally got some time to play around with rooting and going under the hood. Everything went smooth regarding rooting following this process. But since the 1.4 wear update from about two days ago, I've lost root. I tried going through this process again, but recovery will not flash properly. I landed on the triangle/soft brick screen on the watch, and freaked out. but pressed the watch button in for it to reboot, and it did thankfully. I tried again, but the same thing happened. Is anyone else having this issue? Can someone help out? Thanks
[LG Watch Urbane] mleet1980:
Can't mount system to install su. Any help?
[LG Watch Urbane] Xentar712:
I'm having the same issue. I accidentally tapped to leave system read only too and can't seem to get that screen to come back. I lost root after an update and haven't been able to get it back since.
[LG Watch Urbane] Apostlemk:
I'm in the same boat. has anyone tried to see if you can revert back to the old system and try re-rooting?
[LG Watch Urbane] Robshr:
You should be able to fastboot flash skins ROM and kernel from here it's already rooted

http://xdaforums.com/watch-urbane/orig-development/rom-ext4all-skin1980-t3341598
[LG Watch Urbane] Apostlemk:
I just did that as you suggested but not sure if I did it right. It didn't give me any errors in ADB and restarted the watch fine but it kept all my stuff and booted as normal.
[LG Watch Urbane] Chevan94:
[MENTION=4888382]Robshr[/MENTION] I followed your instructions but I got stuck at the TWRP part. I flashed recovery via fastboot normally, but when I reboot there's just a fallen android sign with a red triangle. Does that mean that somehow the stock system reflashes recovery to stock each reboot?

At this point I want to install Skin's recovery and kernel via fastboot, but I'm not sure if doing so will screw anything up. Do I even need TWRP to successfully flash system and boot imgs via fastboot, or should I just skip flashing TWRP entirely?

I'm on the latest stock M1D63X biuld.

Cheers
[LG Watch Urbane] droyjul:
I am stuck in TWRP because when I go to reboot it gives a warning that no Operating System is installed. What should I do?

"fastboot flash recovery (drop twrp image here)" did not work on the terminal window so I did it on the watch bootloader. I got stuck at points 11-12.

Hey. i cant mount the system partition, it just says Error while mounting system. That only happens in TWRP.

Hi,

If I replace only system.img will it make the device rooted ?

Thank you!

Ranchu
[LG Watch Urbane] ranchu-panchu:
keep waiting for the startup to finish

Thank you very much.

I try to flash the rooted system.img, but it seem to continue endlessly the colourful moving circles at the startup. I am not sure why it is not finished. Did I miss something in the steps ?

I've started by mounting my previous system.img, then mounting the rooted image, and then copying files from rooted to the original mounted image with:

sudo rsync -av -A -X rooted/ orig/

I did not flash other partitions except system.img

Thanks,

Ranchu
[LG Watch Urbane] ranchu-panchu:
Hi,

I made many trials with the images, but seems that if userdata/cache partitions are removed, then the watch get stuck in the "flying circles" endlessly. I see that even with the factory images I get the same behaviour: On erasing userdata&cache, the clock keeps waiting in the flying circles screen.

Is there any idea what's I'm doing wrong ?
[LG Watch Urbane] ranchu-panchu:
Hello,

Why there is no boot when using this thread method with LG W200 ? I use lg w200 with android preview 2 download and it works, but on moving to flashing the system.img, boot.img from this thread , it fails.

Seems I have managed to flash the rooted system.img.

It boots OK now.

but on doing "su" in adb shell I get the following error:

C:\projects\argo\nemo-mfd18l>adb shell

shell@nemo:/ $ su

error: only position independent executables (PIE) are supported.

Is it expected ? Why can't I call su ?

Stuck in FastBoot ...

Not sure what happened here. I am stuck in the fastboot screen from early on in the script.

I am unable to boot into any other "area" on the watch. I can erase or flash all the files but reboot takes me back to the fastboot screen on the watch.

Any thoughts?
[LG Watch Urbane] tweeber:
Urbane 2?

Do we know if this works on the second version?

I have tried it and managed to soft brick and recover.

I also managed to load the earlier version rom and reload the update/upgrade to see if that mattered.

I would love to have rhis device unteathered and working.

Thanx for all the hard work...

Hello,

Wondering if I just bricked the watch, impossible to use cmd, doesn't see at all any device. And on the watch, only LG logo is lite. Any solutions or is it dead ?

Thank's for your help

PS Managed to get into fastboot by holding power button and tapping with two fingers on screen..so I thought that's it, it's working ! Si I flashed a kernel (skin1980) and made a mistake, it asked to reboot, but I think I shouldn't of done that, because can't get back into fastboot again.. even by swiping or with 2 fingers ?
[LG Watch Urbane] Skin1980:
Have you solved?
[LG Watch Urbane] maxens63:
Nope.. I think it's bricked..?

[LG Watch Urbane] JohnOrion:
I want to root my Urbane because I swap phone roms a lot and it makes you 'factory reset" the watch every time you need to connect it to a new ROM .. I'm hoping I can make TWRP backups of the watch at the same time I make the backup of the ROM so when I want to go back to a previous ROM I can flash the rom and the watch at the same time so I wont have to reset up the watch every time I switch ROMS...

My question is ... if I use this to root my watch will I get the A/W 2.0 update ... or will OTA's stop? At this time I won't be modifying the watch at all other than unlocking it and rooting it but I know that can sometimes interfere with getting OTA updates. I would hate to root the watch and then have the update come out days later and not be able to get it :D we have been waiting for so long

Ok .. read up on it more and I'm going to try the Reset Ware Client (adb -non-rooted) method and see if that will work for me and wait to root until A/W 2.0 is finally out for this watch.

[LG Watch Urbane] razebond:
Hello yurtal, I had faced the similar situation. But managed to get into boot section.

As Max has suggested, try to swipe the watch screen from 50min to 20min (same as swipe from 11'o clock to 4'o clock angle ) i.e., diagonally immediately after a hard reset.

All the best.
[LG Watch Urbane] crustovich:
I have attempted the downgrade to 1.5, and the outcome is not good.

When I reboot the watch it gives the message "Unfortunatly, the process android.process.media has stopped"

the watch will not connect to the phone, so I cannot progress past the phone connect stage.

I can still boot into fastboot, however "adb devices" shows nothing unless I am in sideload mode(where it lists my watch).

If I try to sideload a package, I get "unable to load".

If I try the wipe data/factory reset option it comes up with another screen asking me if I want to wipe 4 items

1/11

2/11 ect.

Each item has a "no" next to it, and I can't find a way to change it to "yes"

Any suggestions or have I bricked my watch?
[LG Watch Urbane] crustovich:
Disregard previous post!

Finally got it to change to "no" on the wipe data/factory reset page (Long swipe down) and now watch reboots without any errors and sync's with the phone AND I am back to Androidwear 1.5 ..... and it is good!

Please help me, I have a softbriked urbane, I can get into bootloader and recovery manually (swiping the finger when turn on) the thing is I fastflast boot the wrong image and after that used the recovery to wipe data and factory reset I guess I lost adb debugging mode. now when I plut it to pc and type adb devices it shows nothing, only show when in recovery I select flash file from adb then adb devices shows my Urbane as sideload, how can I flash the correct files now? I can see the fastboot on adb devices and I only had unlock the bootloader but no root.

Just to tell for everyone that I did the downgrade from AW20 to AW15 with success following these steps.

AW2 is crap.
[LG Watch Urbane] ned4spd8874:
Probably a noob question, but if I downgrade to 1.5, won't it prompt to upgrade again? I have barely used my watch since 2.0 because it's so unusable and would love to go back to a working version!
[LG Watch Urbane] cubandanger05:
It will, but you can use the update disabler app somewhere around the urbane forum to disable the updates. My 2.0 works fine, some stuff that I kiss from 1.5, but not enough to make me go back. Battery lasts considerably less, but it may be the age of the watch
