[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomaswesterlund:
Steps from the beginning:

1. Installed twrp 2.8.1.0 (for 1.xx.xxx.x & 2.xx.xxx.x TWRP backup, in this case 1.12.600.20)

C:\adb>fastboot flash recovery C:\Users\Jefecito\Downloads\twrp-2.8.1.0-m8.img

sending 'recovery' (16576 KB)...

OKAY [ 1.746s]

writing 'recovery'...

OKAY [ 0.987s]

finished. total time: 2.733s

2. Downloaded TWRP backup 1.12.600.20

3. Downloaded Stock Recovery 4.32.600.2

4. Extracted 1.12.600.20_ckpv5.zip (It contains a variety of win and m5 files)

5. Backup "Boot". According to TWRP the Bacukup Folder is: /external_sd/TWRP/BACKUPS/SH46..../2017-07-03--18-21-10 LRX22G release-keys/

6b. (No OS) Verifies that MPT is enabled.

7. I transferred the extracted folder "1.12.600.20" to the SD card. Note: I mounted the SD card as a USB Storage as it didn't allow to transfer big files and then I unmounted it.

8. I made a wipe and selected "Dalvik Cache, "Cache", "Data" and "System" and it completed without any error message.

9. I made a restore (TWRP -> Restore -> Selected the "1.12.600.20" folder) and it was it was 2076 MB big. "Boot", "Data" and "System" was ticked.

10. I rebooted the device and selected "Do not install". It rebooted do the startup screen and I could see the carrier image.

It stopped working there. I restarted the device and a windows saying "Android is updraging..." popped up. After that I had a working Android 4.x version.

11. I installed the "4.32.600.2_recovery" and tried to reinstall the OTA System Update but after the reboot it now stops at the startup screen again. When I turn it off using Power + Volume Up it automatically restars so I'm having problem accessing the Bootloader.

12. After some attempts I managed to access the Bootloader and installed twrp-2.8.1.0-m8.img.

13. I wiped everything as in step 8.

14. I "Restored" backup 1.12.600.20.

15. Now it booted up okay with the old Android version, as expected, and it said "Android is upgrading...".

16. I made a stock recovery to 4.32.600.2_recovery.img. From my understanding OTA will not work without the stock recovery.

17. I restarted the phone and tried an OTA update (4.32.600.2) but after the restart it got stuck under the "Startup Screen". The "Update" icon (the green circle and the red one with an exclamation mark when an error occurrs) never appeared, just directly to the startup screen.

After that I restored it again and decided to give it a break.

Later I will try the RUU file from HTC.

Well I posted this in the Q&A section but no one replied :(. Hopefully, i get some replies here!

Has anyone tried the audio mods in the general android section? Specifically ARISE sound systems? (or any of the other ones?) I am kinda scared in installing one and it not working and then I would have to debug it. I kinda don't have the time for that. Does anyone successfully gotten them to work? I am currently on Sultan's latest CM rom
[ONE General] dragoi90:
I am using arise a month and the sound is stellar.Im on Temasek 9.5 not CAF.I dont think it makes a difference but you should ask at the thread.
[ONE General] Neroga:
XTREMEMusic works really well if you're a bass head like me. Though not as bass heavy as Viper4Android by itself, it definitely adds a major boost to the bass and quality of audio.

Earlier today my device froze and randomly shut off during use while at 70-ish% battery. Since then I haven't been able to turn it on even just to the bootloader (the device won't turn on whatsoever). I've also tried USB charging through my PC, my wireless charger, and the charger that came with my device to no avail. It's not water damaged as the indicator shows nothing and I haven't dropped it. If anyone has any idea on what the issue would be or how to fix it I would be very thankful. :)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazer77:
Same exact issue with mine. Mine was around 9% and went black and will do nothing now. I'm waiting for a replacement now. I'm assuming it's a battery failure.

I was searching around and came across an older thread on here with someone that had the issue as well. They RMA'd their phone and the motherboard & battery were replaced.

Hi

As in title i seem to have a lot of time when my network drops and i have the spinny icon. It seems to be when wifi is connected and network mode is the top one that inlcudes LTE. This all seems to have happened maybe since flashing Fulmics, not sure if that's a coincidence though..

Could my EFS be corrupt? is there Any way to check? My IMEI number is still showing. I've flashed back to stock LG rom using TOT method.

Unfortunately i don't have a back up of EFS, as I only have learnt about needing that because if this problem. :(

Is it new phone time?

lg g3 network issue

does 2g and g3 network works? or ur facing issue with only 4g network
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mistermoleymole:
Everything works, Its just that I seem to lose network connection when I connect to wifi whilst the phone is in 2g/3g/4g/auto mode. I just get "emergency calls only". If I disconnect from WIFI and restart the network, it tends to come back. If I am in 2g/3g mode, and I'm connected to wifi, everything is fine.

It's definitely a scammer. I tried to get an Asus Watch for $30 before and the person had 100% feedback.

No thats not possible without cable are you sure its a hardware issue ?
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarryDoo:
I'd suggest trying from a Linux PC. You can download a Live Boot version of, say, Linux Mint, install the android-tools-adb package, and try that way. If 'adb devices' works there, it's not hardware.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rubiicon59:
I got my son a Moto G 3rd Gen a few months ago and he's really pleased with it apart from it not sending or receiving emojis. Instead of an emoji the message is just blank.

He's using the stock messaging app and SwiftKey keyboard.

I've Googled and found references to changing the SMS encoding method to auto but can't find this setting anywhere in the phone.

Any help appreciated, he's only nine and emojis are an important thing in his social life :o
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rubiicon59:
No replies, bummer
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beachfl:
Can he successfully put emojis in any app aside from the stock sms, like skype or social media postings or emails? I know that for a long time, skype would only let you use the built-in smileys.

Is it possible your phone provider is treating emojis as images (which makes them mixed media messages, no longer SMS)? I'm pretty sure TracPhone does this, or used to. If

you haven't included mms in his phone's plan, that would maybe be the problem.

If that's not it, maybe try a different SMS app?

HTH :)
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gravemind2015:

[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] Savantsavage:
So I have stock unlocked and rooted Tmobile LG G5 and my GPS is ridiculously way off unless I'm using and connected to wifi (which really makes it useless).

I thought it was a hardware issue since it takes anywhere from 5 minutes to an HOUR to get a solid lock. Tried other apps to find location, Google maps is my main, snapchat can't find a lock Facebook, waze. The list goes on. I'll have full 4g LTE signal with a perfect connection. Even at my home on the 3rd story of my house, the GPS put me a few miles away literally in the middle of the river. It's astonishingly bad how terrible the "lock" is. When it is locked and I'm driving, it'll say "searching using gps" for 5 minutes at a time before briefly finding a lock and showing me sliding through people's yards a block away.

Now I thought this was a hardware issue.

But.

Here's the kicker.

Using the hidden lg g5 dialer menu to open to gnss 2.0? Gps testing option finds a lock as quickly as 3 seconds and the GPS lock will last as long as gps is activated on the phone.

So if I restart my phone or get tired of the minute battery drain I have to open the menu, run the test, and go through the same song and dance.

Now if the hardware is able to find a lock so quickly and easily, it leads me to believe that turning gps on in the settings doesn't actually turn the GPS on? Like the directive isn't reaching the hardware? I really need some help with this if someone wouldn't mind.. I just can't seem to figure this one out.
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] arie001:
I've been watching to see of anyone with this problem has updated to 10d to see if it was corrected in the update.

Also hoping it is software and not hardware. I really don't want to exchange for a refurbished phone and still have the issue.

If it is software though I'm wondering why there isn't more chatter about it on the forums.
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] Savantsavage:
I'm right there with you on not wanting to have to exchange. Especially since rooting was a pain for me. But if the hardware works when I'm using the test software it has to be software problem imo. I wish someone could help with this.
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] srimay:
I had the same issues with GPS, troubleshooted a couple things on the phone with customer service and they finally issued a replacement after 3 attempts to fix over the phone. The new one locks on instantly when navigating and stays on the entire time. My other one would always say searching for GPS

---------- Post added at 11:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:34 PM ----------

I was rooted too. Only takes a few minutes to get back to stock and relock the bootloader
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] marcmarshall:
My last phone was an S3. I started losing GPS and it was bad, took forever to connect and would lose connection while navigating. I looked for a fix and was about to replace the phone when I found a thread where the poster had simply removed the battery cover and tightened all the screws. I did that and my GPS became spot on. Faster connections than when the phone was new, pretty much instantaneous, and was even connecting inside where it previouly would not. I also had an unuseable USB connector and after that fix I could charge again.

With my G5 I have been constantly having momentary Bluetooth drops in my car and lately the GPS is getting very flaky (takes a long time to connect and loses connection often while navigating). I have not yet attempted to open the phone to get to the board screws (not so easy on a sealed phone) but it is either that or replace the phone. I am just afraid that if I open the phone I will void the warranty.
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] Savantsavage:
Got the pinch test to work, so I guess it is a hardware problem getting weak signal from a bad connection. Tmobile says they'll replace it on warranty. Hopefully new one works fine and can be rooted as well. Really need titanium backup. Thanks for the replies, glad to know I'm not the only one dissatisfied.
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] Savantsavage:
The pinch test, by the way, is grabbing your phone slightly above the volume up button and directly across and squeezing. That makes my GPS lock instantly. While letting go loses the lock instantly.
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] greysonofusa:
Had the same issue after I flashed the maps from OpenGapps
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] Kawaisa:
The last update that I received yesterday fixed my GPS woes. Locks on in 5 seconds now.
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] RiverdALIEN:
i manually installed 10d kdz (never rooted) via lgup hoping it would fix my gps problems but i'm having no luck. it's annoying as **** because it's messing up my pokemon go experience as well as making me miss exits when navigating via google maps. having to read the map off the phone is incredibly dangerous. t-mobile better not be charging a fee for warranty service, this needs to be a damn recall from LG
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] Savantsavage:
The tech I spoke to after calling 611 was awesome.

Supposed to pick my new phone up in the morning. Total fee for replacement was $5. Apparently the 2 guys in store and the tech himself had not heard of this problem. Hopefully this phone seriously was just a dud. I'll report back tomorrow if my phone actually gets here. Its been screwing up my GO experience as well. Hahaha
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] Savantsavage:
Did you root the new working phone? And does the GPS still work while rooted? I've seen a lot of people complaining that their GPS broke only after rooting. So I've been curious... Would hate to get a replacement and then break it again with a root, ya know?
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] srimay:
It's rooted and it works. I thought that too in the beginning cause I had the phone for a while before root became available and it worked
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] xanderin:
That doesn't make my gps lock, but I DO have awful GPS... So I'm not alone. That's good news! Also, glad to hear this is something TMo will run a replacement for. So dumb that phones have been coming out with perfect gps for a bajillion years and we still get borked devices sometimes... Hopefully my replacement has the old 10a version on it.
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] Savantsavage:
In hoping to Odin that it comes with the 10a. I'll report after I pick it up.
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] srimay:
More than likely it will have 10a. I had my s6 edge replaced before and it came with 5.0.2 on it and had to upgrade the software like 3 times to get it current.
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] xanderin:
Please please please please please... :eek:
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] Nukewire:
I've been having the same exact issues... Absolutely no GPS connection inside buildings/my house etc. AND innacurate Google Maps positioning/losing connection every 30-45 seconds. It is driving me insane... I just don't want to go through the hassle of un-rooting to return it...
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] xanderin:
Hassle? You've got LGUP installed, so just DL a kdz/tot and flash it before you toss it in the box. Don't forget fastboot oem lock!
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] Savantsavage:
New phone came with 10a! Apparently the factory stock is 10a. Rooted and all is working. All of my sensors are better now, gps is spot on, locks in 3 seconds or less. Pedometer is actually accurate for once. And the signal all together (wifi and cellular) are better. I guess my old phone just slipped through quality control, haha.

I hope all you guys dealing with this same problem either get it fixed or replaced like I did. =( it's a shame that a "flagship" would have these kinds of issues.
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] Savantsavage:
I felt the same way, but the unroot literally takes 5-6 minutes and it's super easy.

Put in dl mode while plugged to comp.

Open lg up>flash a stock TOT>wait>profit

Just re lock the bootloader afterwards.
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] xanderin:
... Phew! Yeah, it's a bit of a shame that the device is having issues like this, but I'm actually surprised it took me this long in the phone game to get a phone with an actual issue.

Hopefully he takes our advice! I'd rather have GPS than avoid a 10 min fix. Also, forgot about the "profit" step. -darn-
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] arie001:
Fwiw, I also had gps issues. Low signal level, frequent pauses to re-aquire gps location while navigating in Google maps.

I paid $20 as a non-jump program customer for a warranty exchange. The phone came in a refurbish box but looks new and gps works much better. Inside my house accuracy reaches 10ft within 20 seconds or so. GPS signal levels are much better using the "gps test" app on the play store.

It has only been a few hours since I got the replacement but has been rebooted several times and still gps works well. Will update if anything changes.
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] JHBoricua:
I on my 2nd G5 (Tmo) and just finished submitting a repair request with LG so I can send it back because the GPS is still faulty. Won't lock or once it does it will continuously drop/reacquire lock after. Navigation is a nightmare this thing. Completely unacceptable for a device that retails for over $600. I'm on the latest firmware 10d, didn't do anything to solve the problem.
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] sickkside13:
I am gonna go to T-Mobile for a replacement since i ha e a faulty gps aswell. My question is where can i find h83010d tot so i can flash back to stock ?
[T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers] Kendrik:
I finally gave up on my G5 because of this issue. I use my GPS all the time so this is a non-starter. I know I could try replacements and hope for one that works, but it's such a touchy issue that doesn't occur every time that I'm afraid of ending up replacing one multiple times. I'll really miss the ability to swap batteries, but hopefully the HTC 10 will be a suitable replacement. :(
