have you correctly flashed the twrp 3.0? even if you have, try reflashing it with flashify. and boot into it by powering off, then hold both the power button and volume down until you see the lg logo, then release the power button while holding volume down, and press power again. keep holding both until you get to the factory reset menu, navigate to yes 2 times and voila, you are in recovery
[LG G2 Mini] jonasess:
thanks men . but i didn't flash my phone before . and the lolipop 5.0.1 it's origin from the factory .

[LG G2 Mini] Vagelis1608:
You can't access stock recovery with the hardware key combination.

You have unlock your bootloader and flash a custom recovery.
[LG G2 Mini] bombaglad:
oh man :D there is no stock recovery on the g2 mini which can flash cm13... first look up here on xda how to unlock your bootloader, then flash twrp and then you can access it with the button combination i described :)

Is there any way into a phone that doesn't let you use Fastboot? Power + Vol Up doesn't get into fastboot. ADB recognises the device, but Fastboot can't see any devices. I just want to root my Oppo F1 if possible, so are there any avenues to try (barring one-button apps)?

I just receveid an OTA update, but the installation stuck because the system is rooted.

I found the update.zip file on my Handy, but it contains some directory (Meta-inf, patch and system) and a big file update.app that I believe contais all the update file.

Is it possible to extract the file from update.app and then create an update that can I launche from TWRP? And if so how could I do it?

Thanks

After ulocking bootloader and root the OTA didn't work with original recovery that's why I wanto to create an update that works with TWRP
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ItalianWolf:
did you try?
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harlock1978:
Yes I reinstalled the original recovery that you can find in t he root package and I completely unroot the phone using the unroot command in SuperSu.

Then I launch the update but after reboot it stuck at 11%, so I create the dload folder in my handy memory and copied there the content of update.zip and then forced the update. In this case, after reboot, it load until 99% that it reboot, but the installed version is still the 170 and not the 188.
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ItalianWolf:
Here worked, from post #393 to # 397 and #400

[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AmINoS007:
so if I am on Marshmallow beta, should I flash the recovery that comes with the marshmallow or the recovery of the B052 rom ?
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MGNConflict:
If you have to, flash the B052 recovery... you can always flash the Marshmallow recovery if it doesn't let you update.

I only flashed boot.img, cust.img, and system.img, when I upgraded; didn't flash Marshmallow's recovery at all.

Don't think you can even get OTA updates on the Marshmallow beta anyway (even via a normal bootloader-locked device).

[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daviddosa:
You should not install any OTA with TWRP...

Flash back the stock recovery, update, then flash the twrp again, it's way easier and more secure, than doing a flashable zip from an OTA update without knowing what to do with the file within.

The OTA updates usually doesn't contain the SYSTEM.IMG file you are looking for, it contains individual files and scripts to patch up the current system partition to work with the new update.

From the two recoveries you should use the RECOVERY.IMG (the one without the 2 in it).

But again, I do recommend to flash the original recovery(not the one in the update), do the update, and put twrp back.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] boo85:
I'm currently using adguard for the firewall and ad blocking capabilities cos I'm still waiting for a root that does not affect knox.

I would like to check around, if anyone has the same issue as me with regards to using adguard when power saving mode is triggered.

During power saving mode, adguard seems to block all Internet connections (be it wifi ot mobile internet) . However when power saving mode is switched off with adguard still enabled, the Internet works. When adguard is off and power saving mode on, the Internet also works. Therefore it seems that there is a conflict between s7's power savings mode and adguard.

Has anyone using adguard having similar issues? Thanks!

Hi everyone I'm brand new to android rooting and everything. I want to start learning how to root, upload custom os's, custom roms etc. I have an AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 which from what I read seems to not work with rooting. I'm going to buy a new android phone and was wondering if you guys had any good suggestions? I'm looking for a phone less than $120 and is fully capable of doing everything (modification wise). I would like to know wher eI could go to find good tutorials or lessons on learning about everything from custom roms to writing custom root apps for personal use.

Hello.

I was able to fix the random reboots i had with flashing prerooted zip via TWRP, this apply also on the new 26.1.A.3.111, only tested on E2306.

Sorry for this guide that isnt noob friendly, im doing it quite hurry because im too busy with work but i wanted to share what worked for me with everyone. If this works for you too and someone wants to do a better noob friendly guide with links and such go ahead it is ok.

[NOTE]Random reboots seems to happen when there are diferent modem versions. Special thanks to [MENTION=5524858]sergioslk[/MENTION] who discovered this.

Of course, all credits to the respective developers who worked really hard on this tools for us. Thanks devs.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] pewusoft:
Hey, thanks. I had 26.1.A.2.167 rooted, so I just installed 3.111 with data wipe through prerooted zip on top of 2.167, and then reflashed everything except for kernel and system (also data wipe here) like you wrote in your post. So far so good - almost 30h without reboot, which is far better than before.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] fpghost84:
Hm, didn't work for me also with 3.111 I reflashed (using stock 3.111 from xperifirm) excluded kern and system but it is still randomly rebooting when installing gapps.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] thewailer:
Did you first flashed via TWRP the prerooted zip you created with system.ext4 and kernel.elf extracted from 3.111 FW? did you wiped data after completing flash? which version of FW you had just before flash 3.111?
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] fpghost84:
Yeah, I did as you say. My phone orig had 2.167, but it upgraded itself recently to 3.111, then I downgraded to 1.128 to root, before using the prerooted TWRP zip (with system.ext4 and kernel.elf extracted from 3.111 ftf) to upgrade back to 3.111.

EDIT: I think something went wrong when I created the ftf bundle from the files downloaded from xperifirm. I repeated the whole process and now I'm not seeing the random reboots (at least for an hour with quite a few apps installed and updated) ....So yeah in summary many thanks for this :) ...It would be nice if it was mentioned on the main how to thread.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] cmstew:
Thanks so much for posting this. I had thought of doing this myself but quickly ruled it out because I thought it was a dumb idea (no offense) and wouldn't work, but after hearing of your success I thought I'd give it a try anyways and I've been powering through a ton of app installs/updates and haven't had a single reboot so far. It sounds to me like this is the key.

I'll post an edit after a few days to let you guys know how it holds to my personal test of time.

Thanks again! :)

the random reboots are related to different modem versions, that is why phone reboot when using a hi-speed wifi connection, i said this previously but no one matters :'(

Hey [MENTION=5524858]sergioslk[/MENTION],

Thanks so much for your contribution. I found your post about this problem but it was kind of hard to read whereas the original poster here went into a bit more detail. Sometimes that's all people need, is a little more information. I'm sure you've made other contributions to the community that have been extremely valuable.

To reitterate, this is definitely the fix to the problem we've all been facing when it comes to using the pre-rooted zip to get root on the latest version. I had suspected this to be the problem awhile ago but couldn't really figure out how to fix it.

Thanks everyone for all your hard work!
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] thewailer:
Oh dude many thanks for this contribution, i havent readed your post before, but now i can say theres a know reason why the random reboots occurs.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Croeta:
Okay. So I'm going to jump right into this, Basically all at&t members get a 14 day period if you buy a phone or get it on contract with AT&T Next. The 14 days is to decide whether you want the phone or want a different one or just don't want a phone at all. So I was going to trade in my S6 for an S7. So I drive 30 minutes to the nearest AT&T store and, I basically get told That I can't trade it in at a different store so he gives me a location. I drive 1 and a half hours to a Store and They tell me "Sorry, You can't trade in phones that have been ordered online here". So I basically Got lied to by a rep on the phone then lied to by a in-store rep. The reps told me which stores to go to and, Completely Failed to mention about the Return Shipping. Not only did AT&T waste my time. My 14 day period ends tomorrow so I'm basically screwed. Tired of Reps giving incorrect information. I'll just call em up tell them I'm going to switch carriers and see how it goes. I guess its come to the point where I have to do crap like that. They already took 5 days to ship my phone initially. "Overnight" Not so overnight at all.

Thank You AT&T for your horrible information. :mad:

I have moved to the USA and am looking to get my Vodafone Vario up and running again. I'm after some hints from some locals.

I'm well aware of the whole CDMA/GSM situation and have currently a US overpriced T-mobile PAYG SIM.

Are my only real options AT&T/T-mobile, or are there some other small players which piggyback on the large networks?

Ideally I want a plan with unlimited data and push email, but they all seem to demand 2-year contracts for large sums of money, and that doesn't even include a free phone.

I'm not used to this market, in the UK I would only consider signing a 2-year contract if they gave me a free Kaiser and it was a seriously good bundle. In the UK I got my Hermes free on a 1-year contract, and the year before I got an M500(magician) free on a 1-year contract. I'm just shocked that the largest market in the world seems to be such poor value.

Am I missing something?

$36 Activation Fee for each new line.

That's what, $85 per month PLUS TAX!!!

Even at the current exchange rates that's awful compared to what I was on!

And for graciously letting me pay them to use their network with my own phone which they did not subsidise one cent of, they want a one year contract!

Also, check out these awful T&Cs:

Airtime and other measured usage are billed in full-minute increments. (Did I travel back in time and per second billing has not been invented yet?)

Unanswered outgoing calls of 30 seconds or longer incur airtime. (WTF!?)
