[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RusherDude:
I was doing normal stuff when I noticed that for some reason my google account had dissapeared from the device. It is not the first time that happens not only in my N5X, but also on an old S2 so since I'm paranoid instead of just putting it again, though of some malware and decided to restore a nandroid backup I did few days ago after reflashing august v6.0.1.

I was using [MENTION=5996255]jollaman999[/MENTION] 's multirom and it's recovery, and the recovery gave some strange errors (got an screenshot but on the device..), after reboot I was stuck on Google logo, after that, the bootanimation dots appear but they dont move, and the device resets.

I tested entering bootloader then recovery, and the original TWRP 3.0.2-1 from the backup had recovered and was working, so I decided to restore the very same backup from there. Checked md5s and all good (only a warning about a ' ' or something but all the md5s were good, it asked me to disable the md5 checking option). Restored everything without a single problem, wiped caches and rebooted.. in the very same situation.

I decided to just sideload the last full OTA from August security patches, and I sideloaded it normally. After sideload, not only the problem persisted, but also the original image that appears when turning on the phone (the warning about unlocked bootloader, which usually is orange) was red and talked about corrupted phone. I just flashed TWRP with fastboot and flashed ElementalX kernel and the turn-on screen turned to be orange ok (wtf?), but nothing got fixed and I was in the very same situation.

I decided to do a complete wipe after saving the data on TWRP, including formatting system, and then sideloaded the full OTA again, again without errors, but I appear in the same Bootanimation start-bootlop status than before.

So I have access to aboot (fastboot) and can flash TWRP and use it, but something is wrong and I am kinda lost, never been on this situation. What would you do guys? The OTA supposedly flashed Bootloader, Radio, Boot, System and Vendor and checked that everything flashed OK, yet the boot animation doesn't even start moving...

The Nandroid restore image doesn't have MultiRom.

Thanks for the help guys.

Edit: fixed, see lower post for details.

I'm stuck with the same issue. I suspect the power button, seems like a lot of users have problems with that.

I opened my phone and took a look, but the button seems fine..
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RusherDude:
Okay, issue fixed.

The problem was the EFS partition. When I restored the backup, it included entire backup (EFS) and for some reason EFS backup on that nandroid does not work, and kills my phone..

I tested restoring everything but EFS from that backup, and then EFS from an old copy... and SUCCESS.

I didn't think EFS could literally kill the phone, but apparently it does.

Also TWRP has some nice bugs, if you restore an entire nandroid backup, it says OK including EFS (but after reboot its stuck). If you restore only EFS, it FAILS (cause /efs2 is not found or something like that.)

[MENTION=912474]Dees_Troy[/MENTION] this happened with both TWRP 3.0.2-0 and 3.0.2-1, I had a nandroid backup where restoring everything (including EFS) gave a success but killed the phone, while trying to restore only EFS gave something like (/efs2 not found) and made the phone not boot. In a rage impulse I deleted that backup -.-, I shouldn't probably if you needed some data, but I was so damn nervous, sorry.

Not needed, apparently it was all EFS problem, not any other partition, so either stock or custom roms were ****ed and nothing did boot. Thanks a lot for the help tho!! :good::good::good::good:
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RusherDude:
If it was the problem button, you couldn't be on aboot (fastboot) or recovery and do stuff :P.

In my case it was all TWRP+EFS problem.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] septix:
I thought that as well.

Well, to bad I managed to delete my backup.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RusherDude:
If you aren't in my case (didn't try to restore also EFS.. dunno why but last time), your problem isn't probably EFS.

Anyway, don't you have an old backup of EFS? It's the first thing I do when getting a phone, boot TWRP, backup EFS, then backup the rest and save those like gold.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] septix:
I did a backup, but I deleted it by mistake. And I'm afraid I tried to flash the EFS backup at some point.

I was tired and stressed at the moment. Guess I'm buying a new phone :)
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RusherDude:
Send it to Google for repairs lol.. (it's a Nexus, a lot of people have sent it unlocked and everything and Google covers it, it's a dev device after all).

Also, thereis a thread from bitdomo in this subforum to flash the N5X with stock LG software, that fixes bootloader problems but not sure EFS, try asking him if he could solve your problem?
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Huskehn:
I have a backup of my EFS that I made with TWRP, but my bootloader is now locked and I've flashed the LG TOT. I've been trying to fix this phone for days. It's stuck bootlooping at the Google logo/4 colored dots animation.

Is there any way for me to restore my EFS partition? Or am I screwed?
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simondo22:
How dies TWRP named an EFS Backup?

I will search for it on my hdd. Maybe I had made one.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] septix:
It names it after the day and time you did the backup, but the files are named efs1.emmc.win/.md5 (at least on my mac)

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] jordandroid64:
Hello, I know someone who has an idol 4s stock, he does the benchmark : long term Manhattan 3.1 (GFX benchmark) and find 393 ! A big score because it has 1440p screen ! Really different of the previous results of this phone, and of others phones with the same SoC... Our redmi SD does less than 300 in 1440p Manhattan 3.1... So maybe there is a new GPU driver, someone who has a recent rom (MIUI or other) could try to see if it has improvements ?

Personally, I'm on CM13 snapshot and I don't see any improvement...

I wish we have or will have the improvement of performance because it's same GPU, but now results are really different...

[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayums2010:
Hello. Sorry if I sound like a COMPLETE noob here and if I posted in the incorrect place.

I am going to start from the very beginning so I can explain myself.

I am currently on a mission to be able to play Pokemon GO on my tablet and spoof my GPS without getting banned. Ill be running it on an account that I wouldn't care if it was banned so please do not just tell me to not do it.

First of all I had manually installed an update to lollipop (5.1.1) when first receiving the tablet. This was still Samsung official OS. In order to obtain my goal I had to root it. So after trial and error I managed to get my device rooted using KingRoot. Couldn't understand a damn thing because it was in Chinese but it was still successful.

This allowed me to install my GPS spoofer hider (supposed to hide GPS spoof from GO). Now it seemed promising until it told me I needed Xposed framework installed. Went to go install it however now I need a custom recovery manager to install that. I have checked with both ROM Manger and TWRP but I cant find my device. I assume its not supported by either.

Is there any decent custom recoveries that will work for my device or have I hit a complete dead end? Maybe someone might even have a COMPLETELY different approach to accomplish my goal. I don't know if you need this to answer my questions but here is everything that seems relevant in about my device.

I would also like to say thank you. Not just for helping me directly in my situation but for everything. MANY of times I have wanted to do something on my phones and other android devices and I would always end up in these forums and get everything I needed. You guys are the best!
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayums2010:
Update.

I have been reading deep in the threads. This tablet seems to be one of THE MOST frustrating android devices to try and work on.

This is what I have tried to this point.

Doing a little more research I found that I could use flashfire to get Xposed working. Thats when I ran into another problem. flashfire will not work with kingroot and will with SU.

Despite all the warnings, I tried to use SuperSUme and install superuser over the kingroot to remove it.

Softbrick..

Put it into download mode and reinstalled 5.1.1 which fixed it, buuuut now I have no root.

This led me to look into kingroot a little more and much like others, I have found kingroot to be a little too shady for me. I will not be using the kingroot path again.

1 step forward, 10 steps back.

:eek:
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayums2010:
I am currently working with someone else on the forums here to see if we can work on a way to get TWRP to work on the tablet. If we are successful then chances are I will be able to downgrade the OS back to 4.2.2 KitKat. My understanding is that OS is rootable for this tablet. After that I am going to look into a way to unlock it so I could possibly use it for cricket. I don't exactly have high hopes for it but it is worth a shot.

Custom recovery may be achievable but please do not kid yourself, you will end up with a brick if you try to downgrade the os

have a suggestion? Please
[Wing, P4350 General] prodaytrader:
I decided to buy this phone primarily because of the windows OS. As I waiting on delivery I wanted to ask a few questions.

Does the wing have a full html client?

I assume you can switch browsers to something better like firefox assuming there is something for the mobile os.

What about apps like google talk or google maps? Do those work on this phone? I really hope they do. I want to be able to sit my butt on the couch and google talk/chat and surf the net useing wifi. Can I assume that can be done? Finally..regarding google talk or something else like skype, can I use the microphone on the cell phone to communicate with these voip programs and bypass t-mobile's hotspot or data service packages? I assume that because it uses wifi, I should be able to use any wifi app that would work on a normal computer. I believe I can treat this phone like a mini-computer since it has wifi and windows mobile. Is that a safe assumption?

In regards to the memory issues...is a 4 gig sd card enough or should I be looking for bigger?
[Wing, P4350 General] duprade:
Regarding the html browser :

Keep in mind because of screen size, there are some limitations of course. But you do have some alternatives.

Opera, Minimo to name a few. The favorite seems to be opera.

Google maps works fine, you can find the download here

http://www.google.com/gmm/index.html

There is no actual google client for googletalk for WM6, but I use www.palringo.com which connects to all the instant messengers.

Skype for mobile is here

http://www.skype.com/download/skype/mobile/

There are various VoIP programs out there, that you can find on these forums... just search "VoIP"

Yes, you will be able to use your phone via WIFI for anything you want to do.
[Remix Ultratablet General] Nakebod:
RemixOS 3.x is available for about a month already. That is, if you are using a computer or Nexus 9/Pixel C.

So.. What about Ultratablet owners? No confirmation about any release or whatsoever. Are we not getting love anymore?
[Remix Ultratablet General] lusephur:
Considering the issues the ultratablet faced in getting version 2 due to nvidia drivers not getting released?

Don't hold your breath.

Unless someone from Jide can officially state it is getting version 3, assume it's not.

Unfortunately not likely. I had a twitter convo with Jide just the other day about this very question:

[Remix Ultratablet General] sewnup:
that's depressing. i just bought mine in the spring and i have to say it was a bad decision as essentially, it immediately became deprecated. i love many things about it but i feel so cheated that its problems will never be addressed.

i guess it is my own fault for not researching enough? i am a good researcher but i guess i missed the most important things. i know it is pointless to fret about because what's done is done, but this is my only computer, and it was an expensive purchase by my standards. so it really bums me out when I get thinking about it.
[Remix Ultratablet General] tschmid:
That sounds a bit strange, nvidia roth devices are clearly tegra 4 device also. So whats the part nvidia doesnt support? Is it cause we have a Macallan board and the shield portable (roth) is a roth board?

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 6P mit Tapatalk
[Remix Ultratablet General] HypoTurtle:
Roth board is probably running a 3.x arm kernel - and currently x86 Android 6.0 needs a 4.4.x kernel.

Jide probably could backport the needed commits for 6.0 to the 3.x kernel that the Ultratablet is using.

Possibly there could be a way to 'meld' the RemixOS [Android-IA] 2.x with [Android-x86] 3.x and get it to run. i.e replacing the kernel/modules in 3.x with 2.x and seeing if it runs
[Remix Ultratablet General] lusephur:
It does sound strange, and lacking a clear and in depth statement from Jide and Nvidia, we can only speculate.

There was a similar issue, going by Jude's oblique statement at the time, of an issue with nvidia drivers holding up remix 2 point something or other very ng released for the ultra tablet.
[Remix Ultratablet General] tschmid:
Yeah but original Jide sk1w kernel is a 3.4.108 arm kernel, so hard to believe it's a nvidia part. Maybe it's a invensense mpu 3050 think, or an other device specific part, but from my point of view not a nvidia think. For google (Ex) engineers it should be easy to update our kernel to make it mm compliant.

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 6P mit Tapatalk
[Remix Ultratablet General] HypoTurtle:
My bad, thought the Ultratablet was an x86 like a few other RemixOS tablets...

If they were provided with the kernel for the Ultra by nvidia rather than the sources then it could be a nvidia issue; especially as they don't seem too keen to push MM to Tegra4 devices; but also probably Jide hasn't touched their arm code too much since work started on the x86 version.
[Remix Ultratablet General] mattvirus:
I have given up all hope of bugs with apps being fixed and have also given up on remix 3.0 for this tablet. Wish I would have never bought it.
[Remix Ultratablet General] tomlogan1:
Totally agree. A CM13 Rom is under development, but for now we are at the mercy of Jide and they have effectively abandoned this product. I, too, wish I had not purchased this. While the hardware is excellent, the Remix operating system falls short of its promises and potential.

The TF701T I sold to purchase this tablet was light years ahead in quality and I regret the decision every day.

I have in the past submitted tickets and got little effective support. Consider that those of us who own the Ultra Tablet whether purchased in the kickstarter campaign or through various retail purchases PAID for a product that has less support that the free download for those who wish to run Jide's OS on a PC.

Perhaps Jide should consider a buyback program.

[Remix Ultratablet General] lusephur:
Updates? And where precisely are these updates which fix the bugs we have repeatedly pointed out to you?

Granted the ultratablet will not see an update in the underlying OS to android 6 (certainly won't see android 7) but in regards to the changes to android 5 Jide signs it's name to, there should be updates. Or is it now a case of the device reaching EOL within 12 months? And I though Motorola announcing EOL for the original Xoom was quick.

Granted we know you are not a representative of Jide, something you had to inform us of when I asked questions you couldn't answer. But yet again,here we are in this predicament and it's yet again yourself giving what is essentially PR speak and the brush off (although I suspect you are unaware that the news you are repeating from Jide is a brush off.)

So, if Jide are to -and we are going to quote you because there is no one from Jide here making any statements is there?- continue giving updates. How come there have been none in months?

Amorarei: would you mind clarifying your role within Jide? you say you are a "jide ambassador"... what does that mean, exactly? just trying to understand what you do.

my most recent ticket was #15368 but i doubt there's much you can do to fix the problems i have... i have just got used to forcing shutdown 4-6 times per day when the system locks up.

i love the buyback idea. when i bought mine there was little else of interest on the market (only the teclast pro, but i had a teclast x98 air which was only OK, so i didn't want another teclast.) but by now there must be other things which would be an improvement from this. unfortunately i can't afford to buy another tablet until probably sometime next year.

i do hope cyanogenmod becomes a reality! that would give me hope.
