[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] ChazzMatt:
Where are you, which carrier?

_________

EDIT: OK, from your past posts it looks like you ordered the XT1250 U.S. Moto Maxx and you are on Verizon? (Sorry for not remembering, can't keep up with everyone.) I wrote this below before I investigated your past posts. Some may apply to you, some may not. There are others here who are on Verizon with the XT1250 -- find out which APN they are using.

_____

Sounds like an APN issue. I'm on AT&T in the U.S. with XT1225 and several APNs are are shown as available. If I choose one which uses AT&T network, but for which I am not authorized (like an MVNO), it will show bars with an exclamation point. It means a signal is present, but I cannot use it successfully.

I have to choose the correct APN.

Same thing happened when I went to Brazil last year with "international" data SIM card. I had to choose the correct APN to get data. Other APNs would show up as choices. The U.K. service I ordered the SIM card from helped me with their tech support as their printed installation instructions were a little off.

If you are sure you are using the correct APN, then you need to contact your carrier. For some reason they are blocking you from data. For instance, some carriers only allow their branded phones. Or their Level 2 tech support may need more information about the phone. (Better suggestion might be to talk to others here on XDA who have the XT1250 on Verizon.)
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] thetastycat:
Chazz, you beat me to it - was just about to reply that it was an APN issue! To Verizon's credit, they spent an hour with me trying all kinds of stuff to no avail. But, they were positive about me using a non-verizon phone on Verizon - I expected the opposite. Finally heard back from the seller, who asked if I'd done APN stuff, which was the first I'd heard of APN. I googled Verizon APN and plugged in the first set I found and it worked like a charm. I'm a little surprised a. that the seller wouldn't include any documentation about this since it was advertised as working on other networks, Verizon specifically, and b. that Verizon tech support, even the higher tier, wouldn't have known to do this.

Chazz, she *loves* her new phone, and it's all thanks to you. THANK you!!!!!!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] thetastycat:
Chazz, you are absolutely a prince. Can't thank you enough! Seriously, I am having the *exact* same argument on a drone forum - I spent $200 swapping out a part to make my drone now identically capable to a higher model, and those who have my original model absolutely refuse to believe it. I meant the thread as a PSA about how easy and cheap it was so upgrade, but it's the SAME deal - those who are "stuck" (though in the drone case, they could easily upgrade, they'd just rather be stubborn) just aren't willing to consider the truth. I had to post live feed downlink videos to prove my point! But like you, I finally did.

Her refurb XT1250 seems even snappier than our XT1254s, perhaps because it's recently hard reset, but it's just a great phone. AND......I didn't even have to unlock/root it because wireless tethering just WORKS without having to do anything :)

Man, thanks again!!!
[Verizon LG G3] Wrinisck02:
Greetings.

I bought my lg g3 D851 refurbished. As you can see according to the model it is a T-Mobile phones, but on the cover it says Verizon. I don't know if it has something to do with anything, but this phone is stocked with android kitkat 4.4.2 for some reason. I'd really like to get marshmallow because I feel like I'm missing a lot of features with this outdated android. Is there a solution to this problem?

Thanks beforehand.

Btw, when I turn it on it doesnt appear the logo of T-Mobile nor Verizon but "viaero" no idea what that is..
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
First, you must find out what variant your phone truly is. Maybe it says under the battery, the same place the IMEI is located. What does the Settings / About / Software say? If not VS985 then you likely need to seek a D851 thread in the non-Verizon G3 sections, although if it's some kind of custom ROM, what it says there could be misleading as well.

I'm giving a Samsung Galaxy S4 phone to my friend for her daughter to use via Wifi only. There is no SIM card or provider for the phone,but it is rooted.

Is there a way to "unroot" the phone???

Chrome is not working, along with a few of the account settings.

Any helpful information would be much appreciated!! :laugh:

Thank you,

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
Unrooting is fairly simple

but unrooting doesn't restore original settings or reinstall original apps

likely need to flash stock firmware

see the S4 forums for exact steps

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamstrman:
So I needed a recovery install so I could install Xposed Framework so I could activate a module. I already had PingPongRoot. I tried a variety of things and soft bricked, but came back unscathed. I had tried Odin-flashing TWRP 3.0 (without a prior version) and it caused a bootloop.

So I found TWRP 2.8.6 and everything was great again! Until I decided I could now update to 3.0... because something had to go wrong.

I rebooted into TWRP, which updated successfully and every time I clicked "Install" on the left, it asked if I wanted to "Wipe" everything. I thought the guy who made this build was just screwing with people. But my whole phone is doing it. I noticed another thread topic mentioning this was caused by TWRP 3.0, but it was for a tablet. Another person had the problem installing Chainfire. I've tried the *#2663# code and nothing happens.

I noticed people on a couple of threads having an X-axis inversion. I don't know if it's a misnomer, but I THINK I'm having a Y-axis inversion, whereby touching the left of the screen clicks the right and vice versa. It's inverted around the Y-axis. Does that make it the former or the latter?

Regardless, I tried re-flashing TWRP 2.8.6, re-flashing the stock ROM and it's still there... And of course, in my impatience (my Achilles heel), I said, inversion be damned, I can now install the Xposed Framework since I technically have TWRP now! Annnnnnd I'm in a boot loop again. I can still get back to Download and Recovery modes, but can't load the system.

I have a Sprint G920P Samsung Galaxy S6 with 5.0.2. firmware (I'd like to keep it there). Let me know if there is any information needed that I did not provide.

Can anyone help me? It's very disturbing and I'm becoming increasingly more worried the longer I can't fix it. Never seen this before! Thanks, you guys always have an answer!

Oh, and it's inverted along the X-axis.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamstrman:
Yes, that one. The one that caused this issue. Do you mean to say this one will fix it? I followed the links to the download and I already had it downloaded... Sorry, I don't think I understand.

I'm flashing the stock ROM back again and I finally got my system to load again. I could try flashing 3.0.2. again and report back.

Update: OH! IT WORKED! Why did it work? I used the EXACT same file as before - not re-downloaded, but actually the same file... I'm confused.

And now, I attempt to reboot INTO recovery to install the Xposed Module. Wish me luck!
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarryDoo:
Luck!

---------- Post added at 00:22 ---------- Previous post was at 00:21 ----------

Usually the axis inverts because Edge TWRP gets flashed on Flat, and vice versa.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamstrman:
Okay, so I wouldn't mark this thread as "fixed' just yet. Although this is kind of a different topic.

I got my touch reverted, but if I try to boot into recovery, TeamWin flashes for a split second and then my phone restarts again leaving me the choice of repeating this event or letting the system boot.

Should I start a new topic, continue this one, or just go figure it out on my own? I'm up for any.

Flashing 2.8.6 couldn't... hurt, right? I mean, that one worked.

Update: Flashing 2.8.6 worked great. Tried to install Xposed Framework, stuck in a bootloop again... Going to cry. Thanks all! All DarryDoo.

Update 2: OK, you can deem this fixed or closed or answered. I give up on TWRP. I'm going to try CWM! Goodnight everyone!
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarryDoo:
There's also an Arter TWRP out there, you could try it. Just choose the right one for your phone. http://arter97.com/browse/exynos7420/kernel/21.1/

I'm unsure why you're having trouble with TWRP.

Also, are you using Wanam's Xposed?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3180960
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamstrman:
Is it telling that my phone model isn't on that list of Arter TWRP? No G920P. Or am I not seeing it?

And no, the suffix on my Xposed files are "zerofltespr." I'll try this Xposed Framework** after I test out, well... Possibly CWM*. But only because I don't see my model on that TWRP list.

*Funny enough, that link to Xposed says CWM is a prerequisite. Perhaps it's just the dev's preference.

**I also just noticed this Xposed is for 5.1/6.0, not 5.0.2. The title also says x86. My model is ARM64 as far as I know. I'll look for one for mine.

Again, thanks for not giving up on my situation.

Edit: Huh... CWM isn't a competing program to TWRP, is it? I think I'm thinking of CyanogenMod, not Clockwork Mod. Oops. Guess it's back to trying TWRP!
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kutusov:
I'm really struggling choosing a new phone. Have a dying G2 which was an excellent phone especially when it came to battery life. I've been searching for a more up to date alternative and this phone comes up when it comes to battery life. I was going through the forum though and I've been seeing lots of people with huge battery drains and 2 to 3 hours of SOT. That's what I get with my G2 that has a battery that has seen too many charging cycles. Now, I know that someone without a problem won't be posting how great the battery is so I'm not sure how prevalent this issue might be.

So, how is battery life on this phone without having to mess around with it? Prices have gone down but it is still a bit of money, I would rather get something that just worked for the next 3 years (like the LG did). I've looked into more recent and expensive options with the SD820 or the Kirin 955, suposedly a lot more power efficient SoCs but I don't see the numbers reflecting this. The Z5 comes pretty close if not even better than an S7, P9, OP3, etc.

I've also had this idea that, regardless of the generation, the SD810 was pretty bad on battery life and heating issues leading to a quicker dying phone so now I'm confused.

Opinions and suggestions would be most helpful! :highfive:
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
I have a Z2 and a Z5 now my Z2 easily runs 6hrs SOT every single day and also seems faster than my z5 (except in Games or poorly optmised apps)

Now my z5 on the other hand only manages 4hrs SOT but with some minor tweaking the ui can become very fluid yet to find a solution to bad battery

My suggestions:

Nexus 6P

Xperia Z3

Lg G4

Xperia z5 (if you are fine with 4hrs SOT)

Also note that z5s not so impressive battery life can be to blame of the million or two wakelocks in the current firmware so a update may fix this
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kutusov:
Thanks! I actually think I made a mistake in my research and was looking at Z3 numbers. Doesn't do me much good as I can't find a new 32GB version of the thing for sale here in Europe. Used, sure, but I would be risking having the same issues pretty soon.

You recommended the G4? I've asked about that phone here on G4 forum also and a lot of people report some pretty bad battery times. It's a shame as it would be the perfect choice for me if it wasn't for that. If I wasn't so suspicious of its battery performance I wouldn't even consider any other phone. A lot of people reported times I never had on the G2 though, that's why this is so confusing.

6P is just huuuuge for me!
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Allek84:
I have Z2 and Z5 both of them.Z2 has a stronger battery,but one in Z5 is also great especially after this 253 update.

With Z2 I get almosut 8 hours and with Z5 now i will get easily 6 hours SoT. ;)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] nazcalito:
The phone is bootlooping but it will go to TWRP recovery and that works. I can reinstall the system but there are texts on the phone that I don't want to lose. It looks like I can plug in the data cable or charger without making the phone spontaneously boot up.

Can I get the data off the phone from recovery? I can do a dirty install without wiping data, I suppose, but I would like to avoid that if possible in case it doesn't work and screws things up so I can't get to recovery. If the phone is in recovery and it's connected to the computer with the data cable will the computer be able to access the internal memory card?

The phone is running some version of Pac-Man kit kat, I think. I haven't checked in recovery to find out which version.
[Sprint LG G4] mikeregister:
I have been out of the loop on this phone for a while. I had to get a replacement G4 and it came with ZVB and I recently took the new ZVC OTA. It looks to me that there is no current root method for phones running ZVB and above. Can someone please confirm this for me? Just wanting to make sure I am not missing something.
[Sprint LG G4] 2348z:
Root has been gone for a while with a locked bootloader it's very highly unlikely new software updates will never receive root. At least on older phone models.:crying:
[Sprint LG G4] TheMadScientist:
Zv6 is only firmware rootable.

as of rite now you cannot rollback before zvb any ways. You can brick device. Basicly for now ypur screwed til someone makes a modded sysyem image with tweaks only no root. U aint missed much on g4
[Sprint LG G4] lafinjack:
I have also just now come back to the G4, and it seems like there is no root method at all, even in mods like my favorite UltraPOP AOSP, the difficult ones where you're pulling the plug on the battery at certain times.

What those mods HAVE done, specifically UltraPOP, is that they are able to unlock or make accessible most things people want root for, but manually, and requiring a software update for each thing. Those may do what you're looking for.
[G4] sbergler:
I'm a first-time poster, long time reader. I had a G3 Wizard before and recently upgraded to a newer Wizard after the G3 fell into the bottom of a lake. I've read a lot of posts about upgrading a G4. I've only been successful a handful of times though. The only roms that have been successful with have been Wizard Love and Faria. I've CID-unlocked my G4. It's been hard-unlocked but unfortunately I don't know if that means I won't ever have to unlock it again or if it's just until i do a hard-reset. Anyways, I'm currently looking to upgrade to TNT 1921. It has a lot of the features that I'd like to have on my Wizard. I've read many posts about problems but I have yet to see my problem answered. Every time I try and upgrade, I remove my SD card and go to the Bootloader screen. I also kill wcescomm.exe. After that I simply run the RUU. I'm not sure if this is my problem or not but almost every time, I get an Error [264]. I'm totally not sure where to go after this. I've tried many things. Apparently going back to an official rom is recommended before updating. I have a Wizard from Holland so I'm not really sure which one to download. I downloaded RUU_Prodigy_2210205_22102108_021911_TMO_NL_DUT_Ship. I tried running this but it just died on me and said ERROR [300].

Here's some info that might be helpful:

IPL 2.21.0001

SPL 2.21.01ip

I've tried everything guys. Updating this thing has frustrated the hell out of me and kept me up for the past couple nights. If someone could give me a detailed step-by-step instruction for updating or how to get this ROM to work for me, I would be indebted for life.

Thank you

Serge

[G4] liv3wire:
You need to flash a ROM with no IPL / SPL , im also using Olip SPL and I had to use a new hacked RUU updater
[G4] sbergler:
So does that mean I can or can't upgrade to TNT 1933?

Is this because of the hard-unlock I did?

Yup, you can flash TNT.. Look at this topic:

Click Mun's RUU in that topic and use that to flash the nk.nbf file from the TNT package.. Hope it helps!

Could anyone give some advice?

I have 5.1.1 and i could update to 6.0.1 but could anyone please advise right now which OS is best used with xposed?. Most importantly i simply just want to use the snapchat modules for longer text..etc.

Thinking to update to marshamallow but don't want to bother if its not as good as xposed on 5.1.1
[Xposed General] Nergal di Cuthah:
Both work fine (at least on my nexus). What device are you looking to install on.

For snapchat, they check for xPosed being installed. be sure to login to SC first

Make a backup of snapchat data. Then flash xPosed, then restore snapchat data.

I'm asking here because I figure the issue is either device specific or bootloader specific (since both of mine have locked bootloaders). Both phones were/are rooted. Neither phone had any system changes before they stopped working. Both phones ran out of battery power then refused to boot afterward (pure black screen, no USB interaction).

Does anyone have an idea of what might be going on here? Both phones went down within one month of each other despite having had completely different usage patterns (one wasn't used at all for most of its life, the other was my primary phone).
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Spectre51:
Just curious if anyone else has experienced their tablet causing their router to reboot. Ever since the update to MM if I have my SGp612 connect through wifi to my Verizon (now frontier) router it will cause it to reboot.

It doesn't happen immediately but after a while of using it the router will reboot. If I turn wifi off on the tablet or have it connect through wifi to one of my Apple airport devices (which I setup on a different SSID than the Verizon router) the router will never reboot. Only once I reconnect to the tablet to the Verizon router will it reboot after some use.

The Verizon router is an actiontec with the following info.
