I never did. I just eventually found a custom ROM that did not have that issue. Forgot which one.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Youdoofus:
id be willing to wager that it was the APN. Many custom ROMs build in the APNs to make their ROM foolproof. Dollars to doughnuts its the APN
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] juicer52:
Is there a way to override the rom's apn? Tello (Sprint MVNO) automatically configures the network settings and doesn't allow to adjust and when I used a RedPocket GSMA (ATT MVNO) sim card, I was able to insert their apn info but still was not able to receive sms text messages.

As a workaround, I am using my Google Voice number forwarded to the phone and all texts are received as long as I have wifi or data connection. Not perfect but it's better than nothing.

BTW, I am working on an LG X Charge SP320 but posted here because of a google search and relevance to the issue in general.

Thanks for the insights and any suggestions.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Techbyte:
Literally, every single time I am casting to my Nexus Player from Google Chrome, the casting will randomly just stop and my Nexus Player will go to the home screen. The easiest way to get it back going is to go into apps and disable / re-enable the "Chromecast Android Shell". It is getting really old really fast.

I just watched Jason Bourne. I would guess I literally had to go through this close to 20 times.

Does anyone have any recommendations for how to "cast" from my Desktop (Ethernet) to my Nexus Player (WiFi)? I am currently using "Videostream", a Google Chrome App. Maybe this app is the problem, but if I don't disable / enable the casting app in the Nexus Player, the Nexus Player will not be detectible by Chrome, Videostream, etc. Well, unless I restart the Nexus Player. Which is even more of a pain in the ass obviously. (Time wise)

I have a 25ft HDMI cable which was my old way of "casting". I'd rather not go back to this, but at least I NEVER once had an issue doing it this way.

The following link contains a rom for Lava Pixel V1 only. It have MT6582 and works 80% like the 1st gen sprout devices. So, most sprout 1st gen things work on it. Hot 2 is a whole new story. It have different CPU and different kernel version for MM (3.18 vs 3.10).

It requires deep patching and we cannot use things made for sprout 1st gen and Lava Pixel V1.

Dear all,

just registered and already huge difficulties and problems. :confused:

The story behind:

My memory-device (my brain) decided to cancel the "password-file" - so everything was lost. Not only the pattern for the phone, but all other numbers too (credit card, account numbers .......... was not very funny. Happend within 10 minutes. Nearly all important passwords are back now, but pattern still missing....) :mad:

As I could not remember the pattern, although I tried about thousand possibilities, I did a hard-reset.

As there are several programs out there in order to recover the phone-data and messages, I tried to get into the deep of Android - but failed. :(

Tried to root with several programs, but at about 75% they stopped and rooting failed.

I'm not very firm with root, boot and such things - so I would ask you to support me.:confused:

(I'm in urgent need of some of the data already .........)

(Needless to mention, that I did no back-up with the new phone........ I know, not very clever.)

Many thanks in advance for your efforts and assistance. :fingers-crossed:

Next step will now be the recovery of the deleted data - like messages, documents and all the contacts.

[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oberhexe:
Other idea ....

As since Android 5, phone will not be recognized as "mass-storage", will it be possible to downgrade to latest version of Adroid 4.xxx, then trying to recover data via "Recuva".

If all data has been found and stored on PC, I then could updated to Lollopop again.

Or is this not possible?
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jani0417:
at default your phone will be recognized as an MTP device (like a digital camera), so you won't see it as a pendrive ("mass storage")

if you did earlier a reset, it think you won't get back your messages.

how did you stored your contacts? sim card, local, google sync? if local only, you deleted them, when reseted your phone.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oberhexe:
All data already recovered had been stored on the device.

When I tried the several programms available, I removed the SIM-card as well as the SSD.

So I thought, that there must be a possibility to get the messages too.

I know, that since Android 5, the device will not be recognized as "pendrive". That's why I tought about downgrade to Android 4.xxx, in order to try to recover the missing data.

Afterwards, I then would upgrade again to actual version 5.0.2.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cory733:
Buying my girlfriend a phone and I've got it narrowed down to either a Note 4 or a G4 or maybe a G3 like mine.

Anything to avoid? Certain serial numbers? Android versions etc.

For example, on the LG G4, there are boot loop issues with serial numbers lower than 6xx

When I bought a verizon note 2, if I had gotten one with android 4.1.2 instead of 4.2.2 I would have been able to unlock the bootloader and install TWRP.

She uses TMobile.

So anything I need to know before buying?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blindskater39:
I have tried the G4 and the Note 4. I recommend the Note 4. Samsung has more apps compatible with multi window or floating windows. Also the camera and display is better. The OIS on the g4 makes the videos shaky or have a wavy effect. The G4 snapdragon 808 is a slightly faster cpu but the gpu is slightly behind the note 4. In the end the g4 has a very small edge in gaming perfomance but it gets a lot hotter and I've seen videos of other g4's that overheat. I also like having a back button instead of the on screen buttons. I haven't had issues with any of the versions of android I've been through except the issues that lie across all devices in 5.0.1 but it's been pretty much a flawless experience after updating to 5.1 then to 6.0.1. The only issue that you would have to worry about that is common for Samsung devices is the weak GPS signals. The note 4 is the last of the Samsung devices that support mhl and have a IR port. If you keep your phone in great condition the resell value in Samsung devices also tend to be a little higher than LG the last time I checked.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cory733:
Thanks for the detailed reply, yes I've noticed that too with the samsungs value now that I'm shopping for one. My G3 also can get very hot especially when flashing or using TWRP backup or restore.

As title says, this is a full stock unmodified B20 TWRP system image. It kan be used in addition to stock boot and recovery images to restore the US A7 to conditions which will be like stock and allow to flash upcoming OTA. This was tested by [MENTION=1421381]jkuczera[/MENTION] here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3459107

Link to system image

https://cloud.swehes.com/index.php/s/31V7GgihohBCdfy

If you are BL unlocked, you will need to lock it before flashing old recovery and boot (this may not be necessary to get MR2 to flash, depending on what it checks, but the phone might not boot, unknown). This will make your phone verify boot, recovery and /system again, so flash TWRP from tenfar's thread to be able boot after relocking since his is signed

To restore, unzip the file above to TWRP folder on the SD Card, then in TWRP under mount points unmount /system and put check mark on mount system as read-only. The read-only part is important so that TWRP does not modify the /system apon exit. You can then restore boot, recovery and system image.

Another partition, fastboot, was altered if you applied B20_boot, but so far no OTA has check it so it should be fine as is. Chance is it will be just overwritten by next OTA, but in case that changes, info will be added. This step is more risky since it involves using dd command and has to be applied carefully.

EDIT: looks like [MENTION=4911249]Unjustified Dev[/MENTION] posted new build that will flash fastboot image http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=68677272&postcount=133

[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] DrakenFX:
Indeed and before rebooting , you MUST Wipe Data + Internal Storage, cuz you are flashing new boot and system and will get in conflicts if there no wipe.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] runderekrun:
Just for clarity sake these are the steps I need to take to get back to B20 from B20_Boot?

1. fastboot oem lock

2. put system image from OP's post AND stock_boot_backup.img AND stock_recovery_backup.img from rczrider's post into TWRP folder.

3. in TWRP unmount /system and check mark on mount system as read only.

4. Flash boot, recovery, and system image.

5. Wipe Data and Internal Storage.

6. Profit?
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] peramikic:

Alright I tried this and something went wrong.

First thing I did was copy all the files where they needed to be. Then I booted into fastboot and did a "fastboot oem lock".

Then my device would do nothing. I would boot up to the ZTE logo then go black a second later. I tried to force into recovery by selecting recovery in fastboot but same thing, ZTE logo then blackness.

I got it back by getting into fastboot and performing a "fastboot oem unlock" again. All it did was wipe data.

What did I do wrong? I thought I am supposed to lock bootloader first before I restore system and flash recover and boot????
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] peramikic:
Ok so if you modified boot, system or recovery in anyway then after BL lock it will not boot since it will fail secure boot, so you need to load the signed TWRP from tenfar's thread via EDL after locking. That will let you run TWRP with locked BL. Although ig you just want stock for upcoming OTA, then you might be good staying unlocked. If for return, then you should lock it
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] runderekrun:
I apologize if I am fundamentaly not understanding this but wouldn't it be easier to flash system, boot, recovery, and fastboot back to stock via my current twrp THEN relock bootloader?
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] peramikic:
Yeah, now that we know fastboot will work even on stock boot that will work as well. The only thing you won't be able to do is flash back the B20 fastboot image that way, but enough to pass OTA most likely. The long way you can revert the fastboot image as well. I only wanted to post the image to begin with, but then wrote out instruction as they rolled around in my head.

So now I don't have an os and I want to go back to stock. Can someone please explain step by step on how to fix this? I just got the phone.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] bkores:
All right I'm no expert either but I'll try to make this as straightforward as possible.

1) Format your SD card as exFAT. This is important as otherwise you will not be able to transfer the system image to your SD card since it is 6GB. To do this you can just plug it in to your PC, right click, Format and then select exFAT from the dropdown.

2) Download tenfar's tool for B20, rczrider's boot and recovery backup, and the system image backup from the link in the OP.

3) Create a new folder in /external_sd/TWRP/BACKUPS/serial_number/.Move the stock_boot_backup and stock_recovery backup into the folder.

4) Using a program such as 7zip, extract the 6GB system image file and move it to the same folder.

6) Go to into fastboot mode. Before you do anything you have to relock the bootloader otherwise the system will be modified and you want to be 100? stock. Execute 'fastboot oem lock'. You should then boot to a black screen.

7) Unzip tenfar's tool. Go to the unzipped folder, then hold down shift+right click and select 'Open command window here'. Execute 'axon7root.exe -p [COMPORT #] -r. To figure out your com port #, go to Device Manager, then go to down to where it says "Qualcomm Loader..." and your com port number is the number at the end. So for example if your com port number is 5, you should execute axon7root.exe -p 5 -r. Allow the program to do its thing.

5) Boot into TWRP. Do not swipe to allow modifications. Once in TWRP, go to "Install", "Install Image" at the bottom right hand corner, and then navigate to the stock_recovery_backup in the folder that you moved it to to. Select it and then choose the Recovery partition to flash it to. Do the same thing for stock_boot_backup.

6) Once you have flashed boot and recovery, go to the main menu, then "Restore" and then Restore the system image backup.

7) Go to wipe and then slide to factory reset. Finally, reboot system.

Hope that helps! If you have any questions, feel free to ask me.
