[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] alexillion:
After I installed Teamwin Recovery, http://xdaforums.com/m4-aqua/general/guide-unlock-bootloader-twrp-touch-t3247939, I wanted to see if it worked. When I was done i tapped Reboot and then system. It said that I had no OS installed and now my device is stuck in a bootloop. What the f**k have I done?
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] ardentis:
You are not stuck in a bootloop if you can access TWRP. Just install a rom or flash firmware with the FlashTool and you should be fine. Im not sure how you deleted your rom.

Hello everyone!

I wanted to put the Stock ROM back to my Ace 3. Now it has Cyanogenmod 12

How can I do this? Which is the easiest way? I have read somewhere that I can restore it from recovery with a zip file.

Thanks for reply.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xunholyx:
You need the stock ROM (never rooted) and the stock recovery for OTAs to work.

You can find a stock TWRP backup of the ROM (change your recovery to TWRP first, obviously), and the stock recovery (for after you've flash the stock backup) in this thread.

Instructions are in the OP.

You need 1.12.600.20 backup which currently not available.

Make a request in my thread so I won't forget to search thru my hardisk when I'm home later. I believe I still have that 1.12.600.20 backup

Check my thread, the backup now available

Restore 1.12.600.20 backup

Install 4.32.600.2 stock recovery.img (as 1.12.600.20 recovery.img is not available)

then you can do OTA update to 4.32.600.2

New info, Here is how to get LTE to work for sprint users. (Now includes Virgin Mobile as well!)

THE FIX FOR VIRGIN MOBILE LTE IS AS FOLLOWS: INSTEAD OF CHANGING THE APN TO n.sprpre.ispsn, change it to n.ij.ispsn, and set bearer to LTE.

THIS WILL ONLY WORK IF YOUR ABLE TO EDIT THE APNS VIA CHANGE APNS BY ANNANDO (GOOGLE PLAY), OTHERWISE NOT, SORRY.

NOW WORKING ON VIRGIN MOBILE. (THANKS SANDS207 FOR TESTING), CONFIRMED WORKING ON SPRINT XT1526.

ALSO CONFIRMED WORKING ON MOKEE OS, WITH JUST AN APN EDIT, (NOTHING REPLACED).

New information: if you want to undo the edit, just reset apns to default. Or you want to go to 3g.

1. Install desired rom, and gapps

2. If cm 12.1, just change the 1st sprint apn to "n.sprpre.ispsn, and set bearer to "LTE".

3. If other non working LTE cyanogenmod based rom, and it is lollipop based, (I haven't tested cm13), replace apns-conf in sytem, etc, from stock lollipop, set permissions to "0644", reboot to twrp, wipe data, cache, dalvik.

4. download "change apns" by annando from google play after rebooting and setting up.

5. Do step 2.

As far as i tested, this works on paranoid android as well, (if you replace the apns conf and set proper permissions), then change apn with the above mentioned app, after doing a data, cache, and dalvik cache in twrp.

Sorry for the edit, i just had to rewrite my steps, after discovering you only have to change 1 apn for this to work.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] Sands207:
Oh yeah!!! That's awesome :D I will give this a try if you recommend it! So you have text, data and your calls all working? We have been so close on this, congrats man :D
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] hydroman202:
Thanks! Yep, I would definately recommend it! And yes, calls and text work without any issues. And I did test out speeds, to be sure it was really LTE, and im happy to say it really is! I still can't quite believe its working!
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] Sands207:
This is a major advancement :) what ROM are you currently using? I have had permission issues trying to edit some of the apn settings across different ROM's they either are not viewable or up until now I didn't know what custom values to enter in
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] hydroman202:
I am using cm 12.1. The December 30th build. And how I edited the apns was APN changer. As far as the values, all I did was change the 4th APN name to n.sprpre, and changed the bearer to LTE. and changed the 1st, 2nd, and 3 apns to LTE only as well. Have you tried it yet?
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] Sands207:
I'm on stock 5.1 right now, I have really decided yet but 12.1 will be my first stop and from there I'll use Apn backup and restore if I switch ROM's and see if it will work :) being on VM this should work correctly via piggyback on the spark network. I have alot of options for data on my stock ROM so I will see if it matches first. I'm going to back up and try tonight, I'll definitely report back and let you know.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] dandrumheller:
While I haven't gone through your whole process, I tried looking for "APN Changer" in the play store. The closest thing I found was "Change APN" by Appando. With that, I still get the error message about APNs unavailable to the user when I try to save new APNs (I can't view current ones). Is there some other App that I'm missing, or is it that I haven't done the apns-conf swap yet? Could you please provide a link to the app you used?

Awesome work getting this thing up and running on LTE!
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] hydroman202:
I do apologize, it is called "Change APN", by appando. Sorry about that. I will update my original post so as not to confuse anybody else. And you only need to do the apns-conf switch if your not on cyanognemod 12.1. The only other rom ive tested this on is paranoid android, and i had to replace the apn in that one, set its permissions to 0644, and wipe data, cache, and dalvik in twrp. Then, after it booted, i did the apn name change.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] dandrumheller:
OK thanks, at least I got the right app. I'm on CM13 (12/25 build that squid posted to fix the black screen) and this is what Change APN gives me.

Are you seeing something different?
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] hydroman202:
I am sorry to say, i saw the same thing in cm13. I have not been able to change the apns. Im not sure why they don't show up. The only roms i have tested this out on are cm 12.1, and paranoid android, both of which are 5.1xx based. I really wish i could be more help, but until someone finds a way to make the apns show up, i am in the same boat you are. I do apologize for wasting your time with this.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] dandrumheller:
No waste of time at all. Just means I have a choice to make between ROMs. You're sharing valuable info, no need to apologize!

Edit: Tried flashing official CM12.1 to see what I could see - I get one APN, MetroPCS internet, showing, in Change APN. Any attempt to add more or edit reverts me to the APNs not editable for this user screen. Not sure what the cause of this is - may be related to the fact that I've never activated on Sprint? I dunno. Seems strange that my device isn't acting like others. Tough to try to troubleshoot as well, as I am literally in a zero service area at home for Sprint.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] Sands207:
[MENTION=6430051]hydroman202[/MENTION] I tried last night and it didn't work for me. Looking back over stock some of my Apn info is slightly different so once I can get that info together I'll give it another shot but once the info matches up I'm almost sure I'll be good to go as well.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] hydroman202:
Yeah, I don't own a virgin mobile variant unfortunately, so i had no way of knowing whether or not it would work for it. I only know this works on the sprint variant, sorry about that. Thanks for testing though!
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] Sands207:
For Virgin Mobile LTE replace the apns-conf.XML in Cyanogenmod with this https://drive.google.com/folder/d/0Bz99NuhE3XwmLW15TGtHbFNDWGc/edit And set permissions to 0644 and reboot. Then open APN changer from the play store, you might see metroPCS or another APN listed but just ignore it and select restore default APN's and reboot again for good measure. Finally open APN changer and select the first Sprint APN like [MENTION=6430051]hydroman202[/MENTION] mentioned in the OP and enter n.ij.ispsn in the APN setting below where it says Sprint and then set the bearer to LTE and IMPORTANT make sure to save and reboot. On reboot LTE should be working for you!! I changed my APN name from Sprint to Virgin Mobile LTE after I finished and that worked OK. This is what the APN looks like if you get stuck or need to enter it manually your carrier label in settings may still say Boost even after LTE is working, I haven't figured out how to change that in build.prop yet but you can use Xposed GravityBox to change the carrier displayed on your status bar & lockscreen to Virgin Mobile LTE. [emoji2] [emoji2] [emoji2]
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] hydroman202:
Your post says to change the apn to n.in.ispsn. correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't you mean n.ij.ispsn? I'm not the grammer police, but I thought you should know! Lol! (Good Lol)!
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] hydroman202:
Did you switch the network mode to global or lte first? If that doesn't work, try to toggle between 3g and LTE first, and see if they show. If even that won't make it show, try to click reset the apns after switching it to global. Because if you don't, it will default to 3g, and the proper apns will not show. Also, make sure that it is set to ruin,sim under network settings. Just thought you should know

Also, I found it will automatically erase the APN if you try to change the values "310" and "120". I'm not sure why, its just strange like that.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] scritch007:
I saw something in https://android.googlesource.com/device/samsung/toroplus/+/jb-dev/test-apns-conf_sprint.xml

maybe you can try adding the apn="n.sprpre.ispsn" or apn="n.ij.ispsn" in the correct section of your modified apns-conf.xml file so this will help you not needing to use the APN changer application.

Like this https://github.com/Motorola-Cyanoge...prebuilt/system/etc/cdma/virgin/apns-conf.xml but with the correct values.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] Sands207:
Thanks, I did a fresh install of CM 12.1 and used this template to make it work with the new values added, I just replaced the existing apns-conf with the new one and it worked straight away. The only this I haven't been able to figure out is outgoing MMS, I can receive pics but can't send them...normal sms and calls ingoing and outgoing work fine now [MENTION=3445372]scritch007[/MENTION] [MENTION=6430051]hydroman202[/MENTION]
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] starkly_raving:
I'm still using the same fix I have had since cm12 for boost and have zero issues with MMS ... (Except on cm13) works perfectly with CAF .9 though. So Boost users use the methods that I've previously posted and you'll be fine. We need to find a way to package the fixes for all 3 MNVOs and that way they can be pinned in the ops of the respective roms.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] Sands207:
This is the updated apns-conf for working VM LTE that I built from the template [MENTION=3445372]scritch007[/MENTION] showed me https://drive.google.com/folder/d/0Bz99NuhE3XwmLW15TGtHbFNDWGc/edit everything works except sending pictures. I'll look into that I'm guessing it is also an APN hangup too. I have the info for the MMS APN but I'm not exactly sure all of it is right,I'll keep trying until I get it but that's what I can contribute for now :)
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] starkly_raving:
Make sure in "APN type" you have all these the same way...
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] Sands207:
I just checked and they match

---------- Post added at 11:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:03 PM ----------

I have these two APNs but I think I need a third for MMS
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] starkly_raving:
Are you wiping between fixes/attempts? If not at least try removing telephony.db from /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases with a root explorer between fixes with a reboot.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] Sands207:
Yes and I'll also try removing the databases later tonight

[/COLOR]Textra works for incoming and outgoing MMS at least for now :)
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] Sands207:
I removed the db files did my usual wipes too last night and LTE remains working for data,calls inbound + outbound,texts inbound and outbound and I can receive pictures I just cannot send them using stock messaging so I'm using textra for now since it works perfectly until I figure out what the last piece of this is

[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] deega:
This may be of interest if you're still working on getting stock MMS working. I never use the stock app so I haven't futzed with it myself.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] Sands207:
I switched to textra coincidentally and I didn't know if I would like it but i find it more intuitive than stock so I guess for now if the shoe fits I'm gonna wear it :) I'll keep looking for a permanent fix for others though
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] deega:
VM MMS fix:

Use the sprint mmsc. Just replace "http://mmsc.vmobl.com:8088/mms?type=null" with "http://mms.sprintpcs.com" .

[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] Sands207:

That is very interesting method of flashing the bios - May I edit your work for other biosess ?

Another question - where is the service to run loader script ?
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] ionioni:
yes you may

in init.rc theres a new yaft_ser service defined that is started in the 'on boot' trigger sequence (dtach loads and runs yaft in detached mode and this one runs the loader script '/tasks/loader', path was defined at compile time, normally it just opens a 'system/bin/sh' for the terminal)

droidboot (or whatever outputs to the /dev/fb0) should be stopped before starting the new service so it won't interfere with the new terminal (will still work but you will have mixed stuff on the screen from the new terminal and from fastboot)
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] mirek190:

I'm trying to flash back my bios on my C5J8. tablet (brand new from christmas.......)

I was trying to flash 2.5 bios using Mirek 7.0......then I'm now in Bootloop(Red Logo) :((((

so I'm trying to follow the above procedure....but I get this error:

everything fine on the pc side,

but I get that on the tablet side,

EFILINUX [ 0.000462] ERROR[get_parth:334] couldn't find boot device handle

then I can restart to the red logo :(((

If needed I still have saved my original bios using mirek tool.

So Please could you help me?

Thanks a lot,

best regards,

Florent
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] ionioni:
the 'couldn't find boot device handle' error message is normal because the booting is not done as usual from the disk device but from memory ( = no device handle)

check that you downloaded the latest files (V2) that the owner of this thread posted at the beginning (maybe download again to be sure)

in the picture you took you issued as your last command

fastboot boot bios_restore_c5j8.img but the correct command for the V2 is

fastboot boot restore_bios_c5j8.img as that is the filename of the boot image (maybe the thread owner should update that line, is a leftover from the previous version)

be careful that if somehow(???) you use the first(obsolete now, it's not even there to download anymore) variant of the tool (but you shouldn't) it doesn't display messages on screen during flashing, yet the bios is still wrote so you should always wait 4-5 minutes after you issued the 'fastboot boot' command before you force a power off (that is if the tab doesn't reboot and/or you don't have status messages on the tab screen)

if it still doesn't work i can make you a custom tool (i don't have any x98 device so i don't know about various models) . pack your known working bios file and the droidboot.img from your stock rom and paste a link to that.

don't test that stuff i posted in my prev message, it is already confirmed NOT to work

the actual version for c5j8 that is now posted in OP is confirmed working as you can see also from the pictures he took (by [MENTION=2091245]blackbile[/MENTION] ) and should work

however if it still doesn't (i don't have no x98 device to test stuff) you can ask [MENTION=2091245]blackbile[/MENTION] to send you the 'blind' variant that we used at the beginning of all this stuff (be careful as that one doesn't display any status messages so WAIT until it reboots) and try with that

but since it is already tested working you should download again from the OP first post (just to be sure) and try again (make sure you follow all the steps)

if it is still not working maybe you are on another model? (m5c5 or c6j7 etc)

You will find here the version of my bios as I get from the Mirek tool, just zipped afterwards

[Teclast X98 Air 3G] ionioni:
i don't know what can i do, there are too many variables and too little details

what are the exact steps you are using? are you doing all this from dnx mode?

try and boot in droidboot(fastboot) mode using (from dnx mode)

fastboot flash osloader efilinux.efi

fastboot boot doridboot.img the droidboot.img file can be found in your stock rom

if you can boot in droidboot mode send me the droidboot.img file you used

again this is working at least on the c5j8 that [MENTION=2091245]blackbile[/MENTION] is using (confirmed with the pictures too), maybe others can confirm if they have used it
