[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moneyomm9:
I think i have may have found my the solution. For me it was a sim card related issue. Apparently my sim card was exhausted, or had expired. This is why my phone kept dropping me from the network and i had to keep reconnecting. Accordind to t mobile your sim expires 90 days of no use. This dodnt apply to me but whatever. Got a new sim, transfered the number, problem solved. Also something else that greatly boosetd my service. Take the case off. This was why i got the searching status in low service areas and only 2 bars of service in good reception areas. Crazy that in 2015 cases still affect service but it did greatly. So yea my fix was a new sim and take the case off. Very elementary. But i can say it was not root, kernel related thank god :good:

I attempted to downgrade my Galaxy s5 active (g870a) firmware from the NG3 to the pre-August 2014 NE4 through Odin. Following this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2799754

I mistakenly loaded the NE4 file into the BL slot instead of the AP slot, and attempted to flash.. Im totally ashamed of this stupid move, especially since ive successfully used Odin before. The phone will boot into either Download mode or recovery mode. Attempting to flash the bootloader with a new copy in Odin results in a fail. However it will successfully take the NE4 downgrade.

Perhaps there is a fix through ADP or booting from the sd card. If all else fails perhaps a new logicboard is needed? Any help is much appreciated!

[Samsung Galaxy Pocket Neo S5310] Andy-921:
Just download and install cm12.1, I found a bug showing a red frame around the edges, it bothered me a lot, so I'm bringing research and the solution.

What they need:

1: Download and install a root file browser / manager app from the Google Play Store. I recommend Root Browser .. Skip this step if You Already have it installed.

2: Launch Root Browser and open "system" directory.

3: Scroll down to "build.prop" file and open it with a text editor.

4: Now add the following lines at the end of "build.prop"

persist.sys.strictmode.visual = 0

persist.sys.strictmode.disable = 1

and replace

this:

ro.build.type = eng

to this:

ro.build.type = user

5: Finally, tap on Save to save the changes.

When You Are With These things done, reboot your phone for the Changes to take effect.

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] burlgos:
I'm very afflicted! :(

Well... that's happened:

I have an XT1572 DS Version, I flashed the RT Asia DS Firmare of 5.1, All good so far. I downloaded and flashed with stock recovery the OTA of this post: http://xdaforums.com/moto-x-style/general/marshmallow-ota-zip-t3250253, this installed 6.0 on mi XT1572, it started OK but I got issues with my signal (No SIM Detected), I tried to flash another Modem.bin with ADB and I get my first brick (Motorola's Logo)... After that, I tried to Downgrade to 5.1 with Fastboot mode, I got error flashing gpt.bin but I ignored it and continued writing commands in fastboot (No other command was mistake)... As you can imagine, I Got a Worst Brick :crying: , The phone just Only displays The Bootloader Unlocked Warning and resets infinitely.... If I Press Power + Vol Down I can enter to Fastboot mode... I tried to flash got.bin again but i got the error "(bootloader) Permission denied, FAILED (remote failure)"

Note: I tried to apply the OTA Update with Fastboot using the command "Update <Filename>" but It says archive does not contain 'android-info.txt'

In summary:

1.-Flashed 5.1 Retail ASIA DS

2.-Installed with Stock Recovery 6.0 OTA zip

3.-SIMCard Issue, Tried flash another modem.img

4.-First Brick (Infinite Motorola's Logo)

5.-Tried reinstall 5.1 Retail ASIA DS

ERROR:

target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes

sending 'gpt' (32 KB)...

OKAY [ 0.002s]

writing 'gpt'...

(bootloader) Permission denied

FAILED (remote failure)

finished. total time: 0.004s

6.-Brick/Bootloop in Motorola's Unlocked Booloader Warning

7.-Fastboot mode is Ok but I can't flash any gpt.bin (Only this command, I can flash the others very well)

8.-Tried to flash again the OTA 6.0 zip using "fastboot update <Filename>", error "archive does not contain 'android-info.txt' "

Note 1: I'm using Mac (OS X El Capitan), but I tried with mFastboot and Fastboot using Windows and happens the same... I tried with RDSLite too, and the same... "GPT Error".

Note 2: I Have done a System Backup but I can't run Recovery... If I select "Recovery Mode", the phone enters in a Bootloop... I Tried with the last version of TWRP Too... (Maybe isn't compatible with Marshmallow?)

Can someone say me how to edit the OTA zip file? :( or anyone know what can I reinstall 5.1? HEEEEELLLLPPP!!! :crying:

PD: Sorry My Bad English

SOLVED!

Thanks to MattBooth!!!

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaMadOne:
I'm doubting you're fully bricked if you can get into your bootloader. On the bootloader/fastboot screen does it say your bootloader is unlocked and also what version is your bootloader?

Should say in yellow "DEVICE is UNLOCKED. Status Code: 3"

right under "AP Fastboot blah blah blah" it should be "BL:" followed by a version number and date. what does that say?

I'm just guessing that you are on the new bootloader it won't boot twrp. So get only the bootloader.bin out of the 5.1.1 factory image and flash ONLY it using "mfastboot flash bootloader bootloader.bin". Then restart the phone in fastboot mode again.

Then grab the twrp img and just do mfastboot boot twrp.img. That won't install it, but the phone will reset and HOPEFULLY boot into twrp. If it does then reboot to fastboot again and flash ALL of the 5.1.1 stuff. I wouldn't fret too much over the gpt.bin failing, I don't think it ever flashed for me.

mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaMadOne:
Since your booloader is locked you're screwed, you own a brick. You need to get on the phone with Motorola and send your phone to them and hope they don't charge you to fix it. Motorola has not and doesn't look like they are going to provide signed factory images which would be required to flash from the state you are in.... seen too many of these posts recently..

Unless moto has a change of heart and releases a signed factory image.. EITHER UNLOCK THE BOOTLOADER OR DON"T MESS WITH CRAP!!
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JEZ69:
first thank s for reply

if i unlock my bootloader you say is ok and what steps if yes?
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaMadOne:
You have to have a working stock rom in order to check "OEM Unlocking" in developer options to be able to unlock the bootloader. So.... basically, if you can't boot android.. you can't unlock the bootloader. That's why if you're going to mess with stuff like this you have to bite the bullet and unlock the bootloader BEFORE doing this stuff. Technically, Motorola COULD be nice and release signed factory images like they've done for other phones.. but they are claiming "the pure isn't a developer edition" and say they have no plans to release signed images... I think it's really crappy of them personally, but I wouldn't hold my breath they change their mind.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JEZ69:
sorry but it does mean no way for me? i couldn t nulock my bootloader? right?
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaMadOne:
Yep, unfortunately to my knowledge no. Unlocking the bootloader on these phones is a multi step process and "step 1" is selecting "OEM unlocking" in developer options in android itself. There are a few people dealing with the same thing as you. You have 2 options.. wait and pray that Motorola releases signed factory images for your phone so you can flash it with RSDLite or send it to Motorola to be reflashed by them. It really sucks because they absolutely have the singned images... it will take them 5 minutes to fix your phone. They just don't seem to be willing to upload them for us... why? I have no freakin idea. I'm honestly not liking this Lenovo owned Motorola....
