Now after flashing the Xposed.zip im stuck in the boot animation. Please some1 help.
[General Questions and Answers] TehEvil:
Hey guys, I've got a problem. I want to restore my com.whatsapp dir in /data/data/, is that possible somehow? Someone had a similar problem back in 2015 and it is said that he could not restore any, but I have software which backed up all videos and photos, but it didn't recover the files I wanted (because you only could choose things like: doc's, pics, movies etc).

Do you guys have an idea, please?

Or do you guys know how to verify whatsapp? I've been using my old number for 5 years now, 2-3 years ago I got a new sim card. Since then, I've always made a backup with titanium or took the backup from whatsapp itself and if you enter ur number and whatsapp recognized a backup, it didn't have to verify anymore. But it's been changed now somehow, they want to verify one's number and then it'll first try backing up (but I do not have that sim anymore). And unfortunately, titanium backup made a corrupt file exactly with the whatsapp file <_<

Thanks in Advance!

WhatsApp doesn't store your media (received images, videos, chat messages, etc.) in the com.whatsapp folder in /data/data, but it stores it in your internal sdcard itself in a folder named WhatsApp. Take that folder with you and put it in the new phone/tablet where you want to continue your WhatsApp usage.

Verification is straight-forward. All you have to do is do a fresh install of WhatsApp on this new phone/tab of yours and start it. If you had placed this backed-up WhatsApp folder on the internal sdcard of the new device, WhatsApp will ask you and automatically import this media on your new device.

Hope that helps.
[General Questions and Answers] TehEvil:
Hello, thank you for your help.

As I said, I don't want the media, I want the data of whatsapp. I backed up all the media anyway and the recover programs only recovered the media, but I want to recover the whatsapp data.

"WhatsApp will ask you and automatically import this media on your new device."

That is how it used to be, I think they changed their system. You now first have to verify your number and afterwards, you're importing ur whatsapp backup folder. after verifying to another number (not the one I wanted) my old data has been backuped.

[General Questions and Answers] prahladyeri:
In that case, I don't think its going to be easy to retrieve the old chat contents easily unless you have WhatsApp running on your older device. If you have it running on the older device by any chance, you can refer to this manual and create a Chat Backup to your Google Drive, so that later you can restore it from Google Drive on your new phone/tablet. I suppose this is the only way to create WhatsApp chat backups going forward.
[General Questions and Answers] TehEvil:
Well, I flashed another rom, so I don't got any possibility to return to that version. That's why I ask for an recovery software which also can recover root files. I didn't think it would be so hard to find, because there are some which recovery plenty of other files, I just needed one which includes /data/data folder AND any files, no matter which ending they have (like *.*, where * is a wildcard for any matches), so I hoped someone of you would know any software?
[General Questions and Answers] prahladyeri:
What software did you originally use to take the backup? If it was Titanuium Backup, then what went wrong while restoration?

In case you have the actual file system backup of /data/data/com.whatsapp, you can directly try pasting that folder in the new setup using Root Explorer (or similar app) and see whether it works. But of course, you'll need to be rooted on your new setup.
[General Questions and Answers] tiger1487:
[ROOT NEEDED]

Maybe GT recovery is the app you are looking for. Basically this app recovers your lost data even after a hard reset by exploiting some resources in the root directory. By this app you can recover the whole folder of your WhatsApp. Just type in the full directory path in the app.

May this help you.
[General Questions and Answers] TehEvil:
Unfortunately, the exactly the whatsapp backup is a corrupted .rar file, only has 0.0 kb data... [MENTION=6997053]tiger1487[/MENTION] I got root on my phone, but the problem with GT recovery is, that you need the paid version for using it. But tbh, I'm not willing to pay 15e to try if it eventually could recover my needed data, so I'd ask you, if you know another software which is similar to this one? I can't search for one unfortunately, because if you google for it, you just get some to backup a factory image via cwm or twrp or something :x
[General Questions and Answers] tiger1487:
I am a new member so i cant send you the link of the all free GT recovery but i can tell you that just type 'GT recovery cracked' in the google search engine. You will get it for free[Tip: If you type 'cracked' in front of any app name on google search, you will get it for free, just look for some trusted website like 'onhax' or 'okhax' or 'crackedapkfull']

---------- Post added at 05:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:59 AM ----------

And I forgot to tell that GT recovery is now more updated. Now there is no need to type in the exact path. There is a direct option for Recover WhatsApp. Likewise there are other options too for messenger, call logs, etc if you need it?
[General Questions and Answers] TehEvil:
Oh, you were talking of the app, thought of the windows software. The app itself is free, isn't it? I tried the app, it stucks at 0% scanning and I don't think it'll work. Tried different apps, it seems they're only looking for sdcard/whatsapp/database instead of data/data/com.whatsapp so it would be awesome if I could set a path :p

Thank you very much for your help.
[General Questions and Answers] tiger1487:
Yes its free...windows version is paid but my app doesn't stuck. Mine one is working perfectly. See that you try some other older versions of the app too. Maybe you downloaded the version that stucks at 0% or something like that.
[General Questions and Answers] TehEvil:
Sorry for answering late :x

Okay, it seems that my root was broken somehow, but now as it works, the program tells me I am not rooted (now I am for sure!) and wants me to download Kingo root or something. But anyway, I had GBWhatsapp installed on my phone, so I think the app won't help me because it would search for com.whatsapp instead of com.gbwhatsapp (could that be possible?)

I found the app Undeleter, this has some more path search options but unfortunately not one where I can specify my desired path. So, I hope you got one last idea? :o

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealDanHack:
Hey guys, so I'm up for a new phone (had this phone for 2 years) and I remember having a friend root + flash me the cyanogenmod on my Samsung Galaxy S3

I decided to root/flash my current phone (Galaxy S5) and i ended up ****ing in on several fronts.

The following is what I did and where I ended up

Rooted phone through Odin - was successful but I got a feeling it was outdated as I got the Seandroid kernal thing in red

Got ROM Manager and flashed recovery to TWRP - successful

Flashed ROM to Cyanogenmod nightly 7/14/16 - used the wrong version so i couldn't use my phone to call

Flashed Rom to the correct version - successful

Installed Gapps zip so i can use the app store and etc - experienced issues as it was always saying the store failed and etc

Now where I am currently

I ended up wiping all the data and etc so I can flash back to the Stock ROM/firmware since I couldn't get the Gapps to work.

I tried to flash the firmware but everytime I flash it and it boots to the stock recovery and says "installing android update" it gets to 1/3rd where it says "Erasing" and boots up to the Sprint Logo where the Blue notif is on and it is stuck.

I'm assuming its soft bricked and on a bootloop and I am trying to see if I can salvage this phone.

I tried flashing different version of the firmware (my brother has the same phone his version is G900PVPS3CPE2) and i tried that and G900PVPU3CPA. Both times its says its successful on odin but upon booting it only gets 30% before it says erasing and returns to get stuck on the boot.

Can I salvage this phone and if so can someone guide me through the proccess (links to proper firmware download/etc)

I do not care if any data/apps is lost (i have important stuff backed up on my gmail), I just want my phone to work.

That being said, my phone is salvageable instead of guiding me to repairing my phone to stock, if they can guide me to set my phone to a custom ROM (cyanogenmod or anything they suggest assuming they can get the googleapps to work on it) can someone please guide me through that.

Thanks again for reading.

Edit: All info in a TL:DR format incase my wall of text was messy

Phone: Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900P (SPR) Android 6.0.1

problem: ****ed up with flashing now phone is stuck in bootloop

What I want: Find a solution to make my phone work, ideally to make it work using a custom rom(any works) that has a working google apps installed.
[Android General] Nickvanexel:

Unlocked my P3300 that was originally in German language. Flashed the 02 English version with no problems except I now have no TomTom GSP included. I have original TomTom disk, but cannot install for some reason. Does TomTom have to be in the ROM update? Can someone give me a link of the HTC original WM6 ROM in English. All I can get is the German version.

I think you might find it on this page in the Wiki

Remember to use USPL though.

Do you mean that TomTom is no longer installed. After flashing you need to reinstall all your programs again. You can download the TomTom Navigator software from here

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FaustusC:
Picked one of the 2e's up cheap. Check your Walmarts, it's on clearance for $11.

Followed the Root instructions. No problem there.

Followed the bootloader unlock instructions. It seemed to work but my splash screen didn't change.

Went to install the Russianbear Rom. That left me with a blackscreen and nothing else.

From there, I managed to get into TWRP and flash the Stock ASUS ZE500CL Rom. That went in fine and the phone is 100% functional.

But now, I can't boot into recovery or even access TWRP. If I Power+Vol +, to where it gives the option of Recovery/Reboot/Power etc, Recovery just brings me back to the same menu. I reflashed TWRP on through ADB. Still no go.

I rerooted and installed TWRP manager to attempt to reflash just brings me back to that same menu.

I wanted to reset it to stock again with the ZE500CL rom, or if possible, test a different rom for ****s and giggles. Just to see what flavors are out there.

Any input into how to get TWRP or another flasher working would be appreciated.

Translated:

I. If your are unlocked and rooted, download Terminal Emulator from Play Store, copy your TWRP image to /sdcard, rename to recovery.img, then open Terminal Emulator, type

su
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/by-name/recovery

Remember to grant access to Terminal Emulator after typing su.

II. Download Rashr from Play Store (must be rooted and unlocked)

Copy your TWRP image to your sdcard. Open Rashr and choose Recovery from Storage then navigate to your TWRP image. Select YES at the prompt. (grant superuser if prompted)

III. Copy your TWRP image to your SDcard, then boot temporary TWRP, choose Install... then select Image... then choose the image. Select Recovery. Slide to confirm flash.

Simple question i couldn't find.

I'm in CM13 but i want to use the stock marshmallow rom.

I know my phone is XT1527 but what is the difference between the names in the MEGA folder for example?:

[IMG="Versions"]https://k61.kn3.net/2/C/0/7/C/9/7B0.png[/IMG]

Wich one should i use??

Thanks.
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtermmin:
AMXLA = Americas: Mexico and Latin America

RETCA = Retail Canada

RETCA-ROGERS = Retail Canada with Rogers carrier bloatware

RETCA-TELUS = Retail Canada with Telus carrier bloatware

There are a bunch of others as well. Check which regional version you phone is in Settings > About Phone
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saleitor:
Thanks! In CyanogenMod i can't see that (or i'm stupid maybe)... but i'm from Argentina and it should be AMXLA.

What if i use the wrong version?
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtermmin:
You should be fine still. All the XT1527s have the same radio bands, so flashing another region's radio isn't going to mess anything up. The only difference would probably be pre-installed system languages (AMXLA might default to Spanish, Canada might default to English, etc), and any pre-installed apps.

If your XT1527 is dual-SIM, however, you'll need to grab an XT1527 firmware with "DS" in the file name. Ones without "DS" are for single-SIM devices.
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saleitor:
Excellent, i saw what you say with DS/DSTV versions in the Mega folder. Is there anything important like the difference of "DEFAULT/RGRCA/TELUS/etc" ?
[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtermmin:
DS is dual-SIM, meant for dual-SIM devices. DSTV is dual-SIM and TV, which I'm pretty sure is exclusive to Brazil.

I'm not entirely sure what DEFAULT stands for (you'd think it would just mean a standard stock OS, but I see "DEFAULT" on other ROMs that have carrier bloat, so I'm unsure). RGRCA and TELUS are Canadian carriers, so those two XT1527 ROMs are probably tailored to them in some way.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] levi3k:
So, I'm not sure if any of you have heard of this. I can't seem to find it anywhere.

What happened, was this:

Rooted my LG G3 US990 through a Lollipop ADB 'one-click' method. (Everything worked, was all rooted and tested)

After that, I used AutoRec to install TWRP and that was all finished, used it throughout the day.

Then decided to mess with Lucky Patcher and installed it, it asked for Root Access, i granted it.

Then it pops up the message about "mount namespace seperation" is enabled and would like to disable it, and it required a reboot, so i did.

Then it shuts off... And i have yet to get the screen to pop up anything.

Assuming I bricked it, why did it become bricked?

And is there any way to fix it?

It acts like its plugged in when I hook it up to the computer, because it dings saying something was just plugged in, BUT there are no lights on the phone.

Thanks in advance!

My settings app isn't saving some changes I make like when I flip the data switch to turn on it turns on but to switch off I have to do it about three times to see the data icon on status bar to disappear. Sometimes WiFi is stuck at turning on. Generally it seems the settings app isn't immediately changing settings as it should since it is apparently somehow disassociated.

Ok. So here's what I've found so far. I installed 3+ xposed module that claim to have hold to kill and the 1 app I can find, from xda, and non of them work. I'm running 6.0.1 rooted with xposed and twrp 3.0 and I've noticed that when I long press back I get a flash of a menu popping up then it's gone. As for the app it seems to be good until late I try to kill then it does nothing. I also noticed that when using the app, I choose to activate the toggle in accessibility menu and when I leave it or use the kill it turns back off. Any ideas?

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] jakis39:
Hi everyone,

I've been researching for a couple days and I'm pretty much ready to root my phone. I have the Bell Canada version. All I want to do is unlock the bootloader, root it, and install Xposed. From what I can tell, I shouldn't have any problems. But I've been seeing a lot about the radio not working, and I'm concerned I might be screwing myself since there is no RUU for the international version of the HTC 10. Which means, as far as I can tell, that if I screw up my phone there's no going back. I haven't seen many threads addressing specifically the Bell/international version, so I want to be clear before I try anything. I have much experience rooting phones, but I'm new to HTC and it seems much more complicated and risky.

So I have a few questions:

- Has anyone successfully rooted the Bell/international variant of the HTC 10 without issues or radio loss?

- Further, has anyone gotten Xposed framework working?

- Is there a way to revert the phone back to stock/fully functioning in the case that the radio stops working or some other problems arise?

Thanks in advance.

I am running Leeroid ROM on my Bell HTC 10. Very easy. Unlock bootloader, install twrp with fastboot and you're gold

Xposed works great too. Never had an issue with radio since rooting. I do have a minor problem which only started happening since i removed the rom encryption and my lte wont work until i go into mobile networks and reset apn to default. Once i do that my lte works like normal until i reboot and have to repeat the 10 second process.

And you can always save a twrp backup of your stock ROM if you want to go back.
