[Moto X Q&A] aorbiy:
I've got a Rogers XT1058 device that's stuck in fastboot.

History:

Purchased 2 years ago. Immediately unlocked the bootloader on purchase. Stayed on stock and upgraded to 5.1 as soon as it came out. Went to CM12.1 later, which I've been running since then. Yesterday, I decided to look at the unofficial MM builds since I have the Cell Standby power drain issue on Lollipop.

First, I tried unofficial CM13 by flashing it over CM12. It worked well, but I saw the XT1058 was on the list of supported devices for CypherOS - so went to try that as well. It wouldn't install on top of the CM13 build, so I flashed a stock image I'd downloaded and archived last year: XT1058_GHOST_RCICA_5.1_LPA23.12-15_cid14_CFC. There was an OTA which I let install. Used TWRP to install CypherOS, but ultimately decided I wanted to use the unofficial CM13 instead. Flashed the same stock image, got the OTA again ... and now it's stuck in fastboot.

Now my lovely Moto X only boots to Fastboot with the message:

-> downgraded security version

-> update gpt_main version failed

-> Failed to hab check for gpt_backup: 0x35

-> CID Read Failure

-> Invalid CID status 0x69

-> CustomerID error. Contact Dealer: 0xdead

OK. Well, that sucks. Starting from what little I know, I tried to re-flash the stock image again:

# mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin

(bootloader) Variable not supported!

target max-download-size: 768MB

sending 'partition' (32 KB)...

OKAY [ 0.300s]

-> downloading 32768 bytes

-> done

writing 'partition'...

FAILED (remote failure)

finished. total time: 1.230s

-> downgraded security version

-> update gpt_main version failed

-> preflash validation failed for GPT

# mfastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img

(bootloader) Variable not supported!

target max-download-size: 768MB

sending 'motoboot' (1604 KB)...

OKAY [ 0.439s]

-> downloading 1643008 bytes

-> done

writing 'motoboot'...

(bootloader) Motoboot: Unknown partition name

(bootloader) Preflash validation failed

FAILED (remote failure)

finished. total time: 0.719s

So that didn't work. So things look pretty bad from my standpoint.

If relevant, the headers at top of the fastboot screen read:

-> AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S)

-> 30.BE(*) (sha-34b7ccb, 2015-04-22 12:57:17)

-> eMMC: 16GB Toshiba RV=06 PV=01 TY=17

-> DRAM: 2048 MB Hynix S4 SDRAM DIE=4GB

-> Up Time: 1 minute

-> Device is LOCKED. Status Code: 0

-> Battery OK

Also, I've had the same results with two different stock firmware versions:

XT1058_GHOST_RCICA_5.1_LPA23.12-15_cid14_CFC [May 2015]

XT1058_GHOST_RCICA_5.1_LPA23.12-21.7_cid14_CFC [August 2015]

Can someone point me in the best direction to recover from this (if possible)? Are there newer firmware images of gpt.bin that should be used instead? Also, can anyone provide insight into why this process of flashing back to 23.12-15 and applying the OTA never had issues the other times I've done it, but this latest time has bricked the device?

BTW, I'm not sure if I should try the BlankFlash recovery approach mentioned by CrashXXL and Gundabolu SC, since my device does *not* connect as QHSUSB_DLOAD but rather "fastboot ghost S".

Thanks in advance.
[Moto X Q&A] aorbiy:
I've got a recovery. I decided to operate on the assumption that the OTA I received was somehow different than previous ones I had received, such that my flash acted as a downgrade. Since I last reset this phone at the start of this year to give my stepdaughter (she has since gotten an iPhone 5S), the OTA must have updated after 2016.

None of the recovery 30.BE images were helping, as they were all pre-2016. However, in CrashXXL's archive, there is an AT&T image dated 05/31/2016 - ATT_XT1058_5.1.0_LPAS23.12-21.7-1_cid1_CFC

Extracting the gpt.bin from this file I've been able to flash partition and it has been accepted. Many many thanks to CrashXXL and his great Yandex repository of factory images!
[Moto X Q&A] aorbiy:
Closing notes:

I was able to confirm the latest Rogers OTA as-of August 2016 is 23.12-21.7-1. This is not presently a stock image in repositories.

I was able to take the 23.12-21.7-1 stock image for AT&T XT1058 and use gpt.bin and motoboot.img to recover the partition table and bootloader.

I was then able to flash all the RCI-CA 21.12-21.7 files (except gpt.bin) to reset system. There was a "sp space is not enough" error on system but this was safely ignored.

Received the stock RCI-CA 23.12-21.7-1 OTA without issues. Original issues came from flashing 23.12-15 over 23.12-21.7-1 and then taking 23.12-21.7 OTA (which tried to deploy a downgraded GPT).

I still have the Cell Standby battery drain issue on 23.12-21.7-1.

Note that dirty flashing CM12 over stock failed, where it used to succeed. This doesn't really matter.

Using TWRP to wipe system, I was able to flash the Marshmallow roms that can be found here.

Cell Standby battery drain issue seems resolved, however roms are currently not quite stable enough to use as a daily driver.

HTC Homeplugin - How to edit white & grey text for: Home, Weather & Music Tabs?

Prior to posting this message, I have researched extensively on this site and Google for the answer but have not been successful. How can the white and grey text be changed to a different color in the HTC Homeplugin? For example, in the home tab, I am referring to the "carrier" name and "MM/DD/YY". In the weather tab, the white text for the current temperature vs. high= white and low= grey. The music tab initial text is white "Music Player" until you activate the media player and the text changes. I am currently using a white "tsk" and it makes it very hard to read the grey and white. I tried editing the "setup" XML file that is part of the initial HTC Homeplugin 6 tab version (I believe it's the latest one).

Any assistance on finding an answer to this inquiry will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks! :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] DiCham:
I have the same question about HTC Home customize (in Wizard forum): how to add more tabs, change categories as I want... but no one answer yet! Could you, the professional, please show to the newbie the way to do...

Up to now, I only can add my app from storage to 1 of 9 block in Laucher tab (by create a shortcut in Program folder) and to tray (by using PHM toy)...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] dharvey4651:
As much I hate to say it, right now there is no option to change the color of the carrier and date. My only suggestion to you would be to use a darker tsk or use HHC to change the background of the home plugin to something darker like the original background. Maybe some day they will come up with a way to change those 2 features but it is not currently available.

As for the Home plugin, you can add up to 6 tabs using the home customizer or schaps advanced configuration tool. You can also pick and choose which tabs you want.

For example>> When you flash the TNT.1437 Rom, the default setup is 5 tabs(home, favorite contacts, weather, launcher, music) but if you don't want the weather, but instead you would rather have the profiles tab, you can easily change that or have all 6 tabs.

As far as the launcher goes, you can only have 9 apps there and I don't think anything is gonna change that. If you need a quick launch solution, take a look at cLaunch. It's free and lets you do the same thing as the home plugin, only not so stylishly. Or if that is not an option for you then use PHM Power Toys and use TrayLaunch and that is just as effective.

Another Option for you would be Wisbar Advance Desktop(sorry, not free). You are able to create multiple pages and flip through them as you please(if you use HTC Home Customizer to unlock the home plugin you will be able to use it with WAD), add shortcuts to the desktop, create full themes for your today screen... etc. It's a really nice app but like I mentioned above, It isn't freeware.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] DiCham:
OK! That means there's no way to add more tabs (just home, favorite contacts, weather, launcher, music) and add more block to Launcher either!

In fact I dont need new theme or skin but I'll try Wisbar Advance Desktop 1.3.0.7.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] dharvey4651:
As a long time member of this forum, I must ask you to remove this post. Whether or not you got it for free or not is entire on you but please do not offer warez here. Offering someone Wisbar Advance Desktop for free is still stealing from the author even if you received it for free.

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Mince69Meat:
hi everyone, is thire a way to have ice view as lock screen default, I mean the lock screen without the keypad view obviously when the keypad comes up I don't want ice view interfereing with that

think it would be a cool screen without having to have a ice view case as they all look very low quality n I don't want to make what I think is a high quality phone look shabby.

hope this can be done as I love the ice view
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Mince69Meat:
looking like a cheap nasty looking ice view case is going to be the only way then, shame :(
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] was12:
I really wonder is it possible.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Mince69Meat:
I would say it is as it's already a locked screen that's triggered by a magnet so guessing it's a case of switching the default locked screen (the one without the keypad) with iceview but it's beyond my skills it implement it
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GalaxyVibe:
I bought this phone which was freezing up. I thought that a firmware upgrade would do the trick. However, there was a Samsung Account of the phone and I was not aware of. The phone goes to the first set up screen, asks me to connect to WIFI but there is not WIFI providers to choose from. I click in the refresh WIFI list and the phone asks me to turn on WIFI. However, I do not have access to the WIFI on/off switch due to Samsung account lock. After a couple minutes the phone would again freeze up. Sometimes it restarts or it would simply stay in a black screen. I have to remove the battery and start the process all over. I have tried re-flashing via ODIN . I update the phone via Verizon Software Assistance to the latest firmware Marshmallow G900VVRU2DPF4. But I downgraded to G900VVRU2BOE1 Lollipop 5.0 firmware now. I also tried removing the account by flashing the modem.bin file but I get stock in the same spot. Guys, please help!
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] zandercook1:
So I was an idiot, I've resigned myself to this fact because I've clearly done something wrong.

TWRP installed, rooted and booted.

Then I tried to flash a new ROM from here using TWRP and well... that's where things went tits up. Something in TWRP said in red about not being able to mount something. The loading screen was stuck and then it just bootlooped over and over again. I downloaded a stock ROM, wiped system and tried to flash but now it's stuck on the "your device is shifty" screen and I'm totally out of ideas...

Please refrain from pointing out what a moron I've been.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can save this wretched soul.
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] lomunet:
do you have access to bootloader with fastboot?
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] clouds5:
seeing a lot of threads like this around here. Don't want to offend you or anybody else but just that someone has said it: First thing you do after flashing TWRP is a backup :angel:

hope you get your things sorted though. Can your please provide a more detailed list of things you did? How did you try to flash the stock rom you downloaded? dload forced update? flashed in twrp? etc.
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] zandercook1:
I can still get in to bootloader and fastboot mode no problem.

Yeah I realised I should have done that the second things started going wrong, I got cocky. And I tried to flash the stock with TWRP; downloaded it to my laptop, put it on the SD card and then in to the phone. Every process that the installation or wipe or any of the other actions performed by TWRP is followed by a line saying "Failed to mount '/ data' (Invalid argument)". I tried to follow the forced update of the stock but I couldn't seem to get that to work either ( this method stechguide.com/marshmallow-stock-rom-for-huawei-p9 ). After all that I can't think if there's anything else.
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] clouds5:
Ok, so a few things:

-The failed to mount /data message probably means that you have an old version of TWRP, check the thread again and make sure you use at least RC3 (newest one afaik).

-Original stock Huawei roms are not suitable for TWRP, to flash a stock rom you need a stock recovery which you can flash back the same way you flashed twrp (using fastboot, or SRK tools). Once you have stock recovery, you can force the update by putting the update file in a folder on your sdcard (internal or external) called "dload". Then you turn off the phone and start it by holding volume up, volume down and power.

-Alternatively you could use a custom rom, which you can find in the dev thread. Custom roms can and should be flashed in TWRP.
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] lomunet:
Try relocking botloader and installing stock rom with this tool

http://xdaforums.com/p9/development/tool-srk-tool-huawei-bootloader-root-t3374068
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] zandercook1:
I keep pressing the up/down + power buttons but it keeps going to TWRP, as for the out of date version I have 3.0.0-0 but as lomunet suggested I'm downloading the srk tool. That's what I originally used to install TWRP in the first place. For the stock ROM to boot do I need to do anything to the file when it's downloaded (ie zipped or unzipped)? Nosing around a few other threads I noticed they mention something about making a file in the root of the file, and I hope you'll pardon my ignorance, but I have no idea how to do that. As for the custom ROM, I'll try that again when srk tools has finished downloading and I've reinstalled TWRP.

And I'd just like to thank you two for your patience!

Edit:

Ok so, I installed the latest TWRP (3.0.2-eva-modaco-rc3) and that went off without a hitch. Using the SRK tools that lomunet suggested I tried to sideload the stock ROM but the error message of " cannot read 'sideload\ROM.zip' " keeps popping up. I'm downloading a custom ROM (xdaforums.com/p9/development/rom-huawei-p9-fromfuture-newworld-t3390820) as I type to see if that works flashing it through TWRP.
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] lomunet:
if twrp works the rom must be work without problems...
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] clouds5:
you really need to flash stock recovery first to flash stock firmware. It won't work as long as you have TWRP installed ;) you can use SRK tools to flash stock recovery.
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] Noetmi:
If you are always stuck, jus download "DC Phoenix"(i don't know if i'm authorized to post the name ?), it's a paid app but it's worked for me. Just boot to fastboot mode, and flash your firmware with the app :)
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] zandercook1:
Ahhhh right right right. So I need to remove TWRP first, then use SRK tools to flash the stock recovery?

... so, how do I remove TWRP?

Installing stock recovery will remove TWRP.

A few days ago while charging my Moto X Pure, it suddenly turned off. I was not using the device, it was just lying on a table charging. When I go to turn the phone back on, it goes to the battery icon percentage screen and turns off again. I have no idea what happened. I tried to enter recovery mode and do a factory reset but it wont go into recovery mode either. It's the most bizarre thing that has happened and I have no idea what is wrong. The phone seems to work because it indicates that it is charging but it doesn't do anything else past that. PLEASE HELP.

Also, the phone doesn't turn on (and by turn on I mean go back to the battery screen) unless it is plugged in. That made me think it was a battery issue, but I don't understand if it was a battery issue, why it would restrict the phone booting regularly while it was plugged in.

Can I assume that this is down to the phone being some how locked down to Vodafone and not letting me use the 3G network on Orange. I have another one of these devices with a Vodafone sim card, and get full 3G straight away, even the G icon appears as 3G.

Any help however relevant would really be appericated.
