[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Gingerbread Man:
Your English is fine I understand perfectly, in fact I wouldn't of guessed it's not your native language so don't worry! Iv taken photos of my screen. You will see when the phone is turned on normally the host and client can both see the device and adb shows the device is detected and returns the serial number, all good there. The last photos shows when it's in download mode and that the driver isn't working properly, it can not start the device with a code 10 error. If I can fix that I know the lgup programming will run. The problem is because the PC can't communicate with the PC in download mode because of some driver issue.

I'm going to have to carry on tomorrow as I have to go to work and the Mrs needs her phone here while she sleeps
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] halekhonza:
Please, enter download mode and change in Windows COM port from #3 to #41 and try LGUP method . It's up to you what method (upgrade, full wipe) you choose.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Gingerbread Man:
OK sounds straight forward enough. As I say il have to try tomorrow as I'm at work now and left the Mrs with her phone at home asleep, she will be working night shift so it will have to be when she is back home. I really appreciate the help and il post again to update how I get on
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Gingerbread Man:
Where I am now is no further, iv tried changing the port to 41 through device manager. Iv set the port 0041 in virtual box for USB settings. Iv tried several sets of drivers. What keeps happening no matter which set of drivers I use when the phone goes into download mode mtp stops working and stops the phone communicating with the PC. When I restart it will work normally for a while but go wrong again. If I try lg up and starting the upgrade in download mode it gives me an error saying it can't change to download mode if I choose refurbish or upgrade. Lg PC suite just hangs at 0% and returns an error after a while. The 2014 flash tool will get as far as trying to flash but hangs at 4% and returns an error but doesn't specify what. I really don't know what else I can do. When these programs reboot the device into download mode it disconnects the device from the virtual machine and I can't get it connected again quick enough before errors are returned or mtp stops working which requires me to reboot the VM or phone. The only thing I can think to do is try on another machine. If it was my phone I would of thrown it out the window or under a bus. Lg software is unusable through virtual machines and I am not buying a new PC just for this lol Il see if I can use someone else's. I hate being defeated, iv have spent probably some 16 hours and got no where! Why can't they just release an ota? It only strengthens my belief in nexus and fastboot. Sorry for the rant but this really has got under my skin and I don't like giving in

Edit

I'm just as annoyed with windows as lg at this point. I really don't like using it. Grrrr

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] dougcgrubbs:
A few months back I went back to stock, and then flashed a rom that was close to stock. When I did I lost LTE, and had very intermittent 3g. I just kinda dealt with it since I am on Wifi most of the time between work and home. Now, I want to fix it. I couldn't get my APNs to stick in CM12 when I flashed to it and was having the intermittent 3g, so I went back to unrooted stock and my LTE was back. Super! So I flashed back to CM12 and I'm right back to the same problem with 3g dropping and getting the ! on the bars. Not sure where to go from here.

Here is a list of the steps I took:

Start with AOSP rom > LTE

Flash back to stock > LTE

Flash to http://xdaforums.com/note-2-sprint/development/rom-stock-oh3-rooted-deknoxed-deodexed-t3221123 > no LTE

Flash OH3 modem > no LTE

Flash to CM12.1 nightly > no LTE

Flash to stock > LTE

Flash to CM12.1 nightly > no LTE

In the past I've used plenty of CM and AOSP roms with no LTE issues. Granted, the issues may be unrelated, and it could just be something with the CM12 nightlies, but it all seems to stem back to when I flashed after coming from stock the first time. Anyone have any ideas what is going on?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] beansnorice:
What I would try is flash a radio file from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2139889 and see if that helps if not I would revert to stock via Odin. Hopefully this helps

My motorola atrix has been doing good. This is not the new one. I have had it a few years. One night I had it charging in the laptop dock. Then it began turning on and off. Then it entered a bootloop and stayed there. After this i tried taking out battery, wiping the partition and it continued.

I plugged into computer with the motorola usb cable and the green light comes on but phone does not turn on. I can hear it being recognized by the computer because I hear it as if it is turning on and off but nothing is on the screen. Little later I plug into the wall charger. After awhile I get a grayed out battery with a question mark.

The odd thing is my samsung galaxy tablet is doing the same thing ie stuck in a boot loop. Must be an app I had on both devices that is causing this. I did change facebook passcode but did not change on the devices. That is the only change I made. I have not made any changes to the phone. It was already an unlocked phone when I got it.

Is there software I can use to get into my phone to some how access my photos/videos before trying to do a reset?

I also bought a new battery and it does the same as the old battery grayed out with question mark.

Just now I got into a menu to try recovery but I got a triangle with yellow exclamation mark.

Also, when I plug in the wall charger the phone screen turns on and stays on the motorola logo. Have to take out battery and unplug to make it go back off.

And just now unplugged from wall connected to usb on computer and it is in a boot loop with motorola animation, rethink possible and then off and boots again. But soon stops since it must be running out the battery due to slower charging time with a usb.

Any suggestions please? Thank you.

[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlaqC:
I've had my phone/SD card combo running fine for 4 months. (Moto X Play + 64GB Sandisk SD card) This week, my podcast app started displaying download errors; I soon discovered that the SD card was no longer being detected.

(The Moto is running Marshmallow 6.0.1; the card is a SanDisk Ultra 64GB UHS-I/Class 10 Card SDSQUNB-064G-GN3MN)

The card had been adopted as internal storage.

I performed a factory reset on the phone. No help.

I mounted the card on my PC; it detected errors. Chkdsk said "Corruption was found while examining the volume bitmap".

After correcting the errors, my PC could read the card just fine; folders and photos appeared fine.

But still, my phone couldn't detect my card. Time for some isolation testing:

Insert a different card into my phone: success. The phone detected the card.

Insert my card into a different Android phone: success. The phone detected the card.

What's my next step? Thanks!
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K.khiladi:
Format your card using phone if it detects.

It doesn't detect the card at all. That's the problem.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nattramnar:
Could you solve the problem?
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cucumbers:
I have the same problem. SD card would "vanish" then sometimes "come back" if I physically ejected & re-inserted it a few times, but eventually it stopped altogether. I'm pretty sure it's a hardware issue. I haven't found a solution and it's super-annoying.

BTW is your GPS ok? I also started getting reboots on my phone when the SD card started acting weird, and eventually I traced it to my location services being in high accuracy mode - no problem when I'm in battery saving mode. I'm on a different ROM than you but I'm just curious whether there might be a connection...

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Sharell:
Hello

I bought a leo on ebay 2 or 3 years ago. Android was on it, so I had nothing to do with flashing.

Just used leo til now, but now its so slooooow with everything that I can throw it away or refresh it somehow (wanna do this thing what was called „hardreset“ on xda flame with this android-leo with result: clean n fast phone with the same operation system (can`t see a reason why to change to another android, now. Cos I have many other construction areas).

So I press leos power button and the „neu starten/reboot“ menu, then „recovery“, but its just making a normal restart (Choosing „bootloader“ its the same: normal restart).

When I go in the settings menu, then „Sichern & Zurücksetzen“, then „auf Werkszustand zurück“ it does a normal restart again.

Cos I don`t know which is important, so I just type a bit what I can read in „Einstellungen“ bout this leo:

Modellnummer: NexusHD2

Android-Version: 4.0.4

Baseband-Version: 15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14

Kernel-Version: 2.6.32_tytung_ics_r3.6 tytung@ubuntu #300 Sat Nov 15:53:34 CST 2012

CyanogenMod-Version: 9.1.0-stable-leo

Build-Datum: Thu Feb 28 17:24:57 CST 2013

Build-Nummer: IMM76L (NexusHD2-ICS-CM9-HWA v.2.9a) (DataOnEXT)

Restarting leo there is MagDLR v1.13 n so on.

I think it was cleaned when I got it (it looked like cleaned), so there have to be a way to do it again?

Can someone help me with this leo friend, please? Where is this hided way to get it clean?

I would like it when leo would speak english like my PC and tc1100, too. Is there an easy way to do this now while cleaning it (change the language?)?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Robbie P:
Hi Sharell, welcome to the Forum. Sorry, only just seen this post.

It seems that your phone uses dataonext, this stores all your data,eg text messages, phone call logs, apps, settings (including language settings) etc. on an ext4 partition on your sdcard. Did the phone come with a partitioned sdcard or did you do it?

Your media (eg photos, music, app storage, etc) is stored on the FAT32 partition.

Usually a hardreset deletes the data partition, leaving all your media intact. sometimes both partitions are deleted, depending on how you do it.

You might have a recovery (a program for installing roms and managing stuff, including sdcard partitions) already installed. Go to magldr menu and select 8. ad recovery and see if it boots into recovery. Report back please.

So every CM ROMs I flash (beanstalk and bliss) I cannot dial out.

Every time I try to dial a phone number, the phone reboots into the animation screen (does not completely reboot the phone).

I did a clean install and even went as far as unrooting the phone, flashing stock and rooting it back up.

Still no avail...cannot flash CM ROMs. It was working fine then one day...this happened.

Anyone got any suggestions for me?

I rooted the phone with superuser not SuperSU.

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GreaterLesser:
Try Resurrection Remix - That's a CM based ROM. Bliss and Beanstalk seem to be experimental at this point. Also try regular CM13 and see if you get the same issue as well as make sure all your partitions are up to date (i.e. Vendor and Radio) Updated Radio isn't required but may help.

Instructions

To keep all discussion on this thread I'm coping my reply here as well. ;)

Here is step by step instructions i followed to get it work on windows ( i think linux users knows how to do this simple things :p )

this guide was written for earlier version of patcher, but [MENTION=7414440]lorantm[/MENTION] is providing much easier automated patcher version now (from v1.3+ ) so just follow OP's USAGE GUIDE

still you can go through my guide for some deeper details and reference ;) it wouldn't hurt and you will learn some history of patcher !

1. you need JAVA installed in PC if not install it from here https://java.com/en/download/

2. Download official (Not patched ) apk of latest stable Facebook(for now v76 here ) or as per recommendation of OP according to patcher version.(USE V75+ TO AVOID THE THREAD LIST SCROLL DOWN BUG! )

3. download patcher by [MENTION=7414440]lorantm[/MENTION] from OP

4. extract patcher in fbpatcher folder (use extract to fbpatcher/ )

5. put donloaded FB version form 2nd point in this folder and rename it to fb.apk for ease.

6(new). hold Shift and right click on empty space, then select open command prompt here in empty space of your folder that contains fb.apk & fbpatcher.. now No need to copy cmd.exe at that folder...this method will open your system inbuild cmd so skip directly to Point 9

8. now your folder should look like this

9. open cmd.exe and write java -jar fbpatcher.jar fb.apk fbpatched.apk (mind on spaces... see below pic for clarity )

10. wait for 5-10 min and let patcher do its job you will get fbpatched.apk as patched file.

Install & enjoy :D :p

How do you patch the apk on a mac?
[Android Apps and Games] lorantm:
I never had a Mac, but I think you should do it just like on Windows or Linux. Install Java, open a command line and run it from there.

[Android Apps and Games] Smoking Monkey:
I don't think .exe files work on mac, so where would i be able to find the mac .dmg equivalent of the cmd.exe file?
[Android Apps and Games] lorantm:
It's Terminal. Open it, navigate to the directory (with the cd command) where you have extracted the patcher and the official apk. Then run java -jar fbpatcher.jar FB72.apk FB72P.apk.
[Android Apps and Games] jineshpatel30:
http://www.wikihow.com/Get-to-the-Command-Line-on-a-Mac

personally even i never used Mac so i don't know how to open it in any specific folder (like windows has Shift+right click in empty space of folder ) but you can try to navigate to your folder via cd/ commands ( try to google it )
[Android Apps and Games] Smoking Monkey:
For anyone doing this on a mac you open up terminal and type cd /

Then drag the fbpatcher folder into terminal and press enter.

Copy and paste java -jar fbpatcher.jar FB72.apk FB72P.apk then press enter again.

Guys Plz Share ur Patched APK file I want to use on Android Lollipop
[Android Apps and Games] lorantm:
New version!

V1.1 is out! I successfully patched 73.0.0.18.66 and 76.0.0.0.19 alpha with it and they worked perfectly.

The new version of FBPatcher can be downloaded from the first post, I updated the link.

Explanation: a method in com.facebook.messaging.banner.MuteThreadWarningNotification had to be dummied to make it work.
[Android Apps and Games] lorantm:
You can't make calls. Facebook removed WebrtcIncallActivity from the manifest and its theme from the resources so even if the voip code is still in there, it's not possible. Also, native library fb-webrtc-jni that is needed to make calls was removed. Earlier I tried to add it from Messenger's apk and hack the code to be able to start a call. It was ringing out, but the conversation could not be started because the in-call UI theme was not present and the app crashed immediately.

I plan to add Messenger thread list feature at the weekend or next week but I already wrote that it will not work on all devices.
[Android Apps and Games] eyesore123:
No plans on fixing this bug? (Just asking)
[Android Apps and Games] lorantm:
I can't do that, sorry.

The info button would take you to an activity whose code is not in the app.

The title bar back button is something we can live without, it is easier to use the soft/hard keys to go back...

Update: Known issues & list of patched classes are in OP. Also added a batch file that deletes old Android framework from apktool's directory. It will be useful if somebody gets an error.
[Android Apps and Games] motfis:
How about to rename the package apk, for example from

com.facebook.katana -> com.facebook2.katana
[Android Apps and Games] lorantm:
Package name is hardcoded in several classes so it has to be changed in thousands of places. This is not a solution.

Update: now I've also experienced the bug with the pictures. I only observed it on an LG G2 when the wifi signal was weak. Only clearing app data helped.

On the other hand it works very well on a G4 and an Asus tablet. So the problem must be device and version (75.0.0.23.69) specific.
[Android Apps and Games] raptorddd:
patched with 1.5 but not sure , am getting the scrambled messages on v1.4 didnt happened as much. do you have them for download i already erase it. :D
[Android Apps and Games] lorantm:
1.5 does quite the same as 1.4. As I said earlier, your problem is independent of the patcher.

[Android Apps and Games] khkr:
