[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spectralcanine:
I had CM12 for a long time now, but it kept annoying me with update notifications, so I finally gave in.

Installation went fine and booted.

Then I installed this gapps. Upon booting, it kept going in a loop of "Google Services has stopped working". Then after a few minutes it went into a boot loop that keeps crashing a few moments after human interaction is possible.

The worst part is that I also can't get into recovery. I can go to fastboot mode, but upon trying to enter recovery the phone boots normally instead.

Did it get bricked?

Thanks.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spectralcanine:
To follow up, I went to sleep, and after I woke up, my phone finally agreed to go into recovery for some reason, so I formatted everything and reflashed CM13 with Open Gapps this time, and it seems to work.

I noticed the Open Gapps notes for Android 6 say it must be installed before booting, while I installed the above gapps after booting, so that might have been the problem.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vibrate:
It seems like whenever I just want to sit down and watch a movie or live TV through the app of any of the major broadcast networks, it tells me to go to the computer and plug in a code. I'm not sure why this happens so frequently. Is it because I frequently unplug my Fire TV? Maybe it's in communication with the servers and if it stops communicating then the code expires?

[T-Mobile LG V10 General] Syntax323:
Really?

That's really ****ty. Charge for a root? I'm sure they would still make plenty by doing donations like all developers do. Take care of the community, community takes care of you. What crooks.
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] AnonVendetta:
Why anyone would pay for root when they can find it on XDA for free is beyond me. One Click Root takes methods that the community has developed and given away, then sells them. That almost meets the definition of crook if you ask me (unless they publicly give credit). OCR mostly is for bootloader locked devices that can't get root any other way.

I tried installing KingRoot/KingoRoot on my v10 recently, just to see if it would work. Nope. It used to work on Lollipop but not on Marshmallow. Now I'm using systemless Magisk and systemless phh Superuser (Magisk version). Works really well for the most part.
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] somebady:
We are all wrong.

The root statement on all kind of androed devices, needs to be IMPOSED BY LAW SUIT to Gogle Inc.

Creating os like a REAL OS IS (with adm and password and root)

And something more:

IMPOSE TOO, each device, HAVES OBLIGATION TO COME WITH ORIGINAL ROM OF THE DEVICE RECORDED ON A CD ROM FOR REINSTALL AGAIN.

We are all wrong PAYING BUMS AND DUMB DEVICES LIJE TODAY THESE SUPERPRICED CHITS ARE.

[T-Mobile LG V10 General] AnonVendetta:
It's not illegal to root, but I doubt any court would ever order Google to preroot Android devices. Google would claim it's a security risk, and quite frankly, they would be right. This would open up the masses to all kinds of vulnerabilities. Most people can't handle a rooted device, not because they're dumb, but because they don't understand what root is, the responsibilities it entails, etc. But I personally still prefer to root. I'm willing to take a little less security in exchange for the power to do things I couldn't do otherwise.
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] somebady:
Ha, security risk?

Windows have root, and is a security risk?

Linux and Unix-like haves root, and are security risk?

:eek:

These mobiles are LINUX AND MICRO PC.

If this haves not root, is not mine!

The goglepleyservices is malware that "administry" remotely.

Will this work on the 6.0.1 update?
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] AnonVendetta:
[MENTION=3384384]linsalata28[/MENTION]: Most likely, no, since the One Click Root people usually root the device with KingRoot/KingoRoot. Last time I tried those on the v10 running MM 6.0.1, they failed. I tried with theirs apps as well as connecting my phone to PC. Your best best is to unlock your bootloader, install TWRP, then flash either systemless SuperSU, Magisk, phh's Superuser, any of those will work and are far superior to OCR. Why pay for OCR when you can get a superior root solution for free? They take methods developed by the Android community (oftentimes here at XDA), then charge money for this "service" that you can easily do yourself. Screw that crap.
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] linsalata28:
Thanks I didn't even think of doing it that way. I was only asking because a few people had asked me. I rooted mine before the update. I tried the 20L but went back to 20J. I was having issues with the update.
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] cmccrar:
Please help?!

I am new to this whole rooting thing, and I was wondering if I could get your expert advice on how exactly to root my LG v10, vs990, running 6.0 marshmallow. What are the first....to.....last steps I should take. There are a lot of pay-sites out there, like OCR, but I was hoping somebody here could walk me through how to do it myself. You seem to be extremely knowledgeable on the topic, so I thought I would reach out for your expertise. This will be my first phone that I root, and I don't want to brick it. Would you please advise and help teach a new student?
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] jsgraphicart:
I'm coming from a Nexus 5X which suddenly died on me so I had to use this V10 I had as a replacement. I am a long time Nexus user so I am familiar with TWRP and rooting and all that. But this is the first phone I have used in a while that isn't as straight forward as the Nexus phones when it came to rooting. So I just have a couple questions about the V10. Is it as easy as you mention? Unlock bootloader, flash TWRP, then flash root. That's it? And I assume so but I'll ask anyway to make sure, doing this wipes the phone?

I may not even root this thing but just in case I get curious enough to do it, I'd like to know if that's all it takes.

EDIT: I see there is no official TWRP for the V10 though.
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] AnonVendetta:
I no longer own a v10, but I'll still try to help.

First, flash a stock Marshmallow KDZ via PC. v20L was the last KDZ I had used. Maybe Nougat is available for the v10 now? Either way, go with 20L, or else my steps might not work.

Next, Google for something called Dirty Cow exploit

Instructions here: https://github.com/jcadduono/android_external_dirtycow

Download all 4 files from here: https://build.nethunter.com/android-tools/dirtycow/arm64/

Install the latest LG United Mobile Driver

Install ADB drivers (Google for "15 seconds ADB")

Connect phone to PC, open CMD prompt as admin, then type "adb devices" (no quotes). USB debugging needs to be enabled for this to work. Check your phone, something should pop up about accepting an RSA fingerprint, say yes. Then type "adb devices" again, see if your phone is in the list, then make sure it doesn't say unauthorized.

Run through the steps for the DC exploit, I advise using Linux for this, but Windows should work (no luck for me, I booted into a live Fedora Linux distro on a USB stick, then installed android-tools via the commands "su" and then "dnf install android-tools" packages to get ADB and fastboot). If you did everything correctly you should have a modded boot image with SELinux set to permissive by default, as well as temp root. From here you can use the dd command in a terminal emulator (on the phone) to flash a TWRP img into the recovery partition. I forgot the exact command to type for that but it's not a long one. It should be on the Dirty Cow GitHub page.

Once done you can just reboot into recovery via the button combo, from there you can flash a systemless SuperSU zip for permanent root. Magisk will also work. I know most people use SuperSU or Magisk these days. But honestly, I don't use either anymore, SuperSU is still closed-source and is now owned by some shady Asian company. And Magisk, I had too many issues with it. So I'm going to take the time out to give a recommendation for my current fave root solution, called Phh's Superuser. It's very simple and elegant, you can find the download link for it in a thread here on XDA. And it's 100% open source and just works, and well at that. I had no issues with it on the v10. Grab the zip from the Phh thread, then boot to TWRP and flash it, simple as that. It will patch your boot image. Then wipe cache and dalvik cache, reboot back into Android, download the Phh's Superuser app from Play Store. You need this or it won't work. Once done just open the app, you'll see it's very simple as I've said. Nice and clean and uses next to no resources. Test some root apps with it, I think you'll like what you see. From here you can remove bloatware or mess with kernel settings, whatever you want, pretty much anything that needs root should work.

Hope this helped someone!
[Moto G 2015 General] eskaneo:
Hi to everyone.

Recently I started having a problem with my

Moto G 2015

. Each time i make or receive a call, my Moto G reboots with apparently no reason.

I searched in XDA and in other webs, and i didn't found a solution.

Then, i decided to experiment with the system. I made everything with no results.

One day, doing some research, i found the default apps option and i saw that i have other app in the calls option. I changed the option to "Dialer", tested the phone, and it works!!!

The steps to repair are:

Go to Settings>>Applications>>click on the Cogwheel>>Default Applications>>Telephone Application>> Select the app "Dialer"

And that's all!!

I hope this works to all.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syco123:
I had a nightly of CM13 working, but the SD card wasn't working correctly, so flashed the 20160820 snapshot, and everything was good except there was no connection to the sprint network. Wifi was OK. I tried flashing the latest nightly (20160930), and same issue. All downloaded from the CyanogenMod website.

So gave up and tried restoring the backup but it has failed, sdcard issue.

Tried the snapshot of 12.1 but it just bootlooped.

Edit:

So I tried flashing the 12.1 snapshot (20161001), still the same.

Edit:

I flashed this stock rooted - http://xdaforums.com/sprint-galaxy-s5/development/rom-g900ppca-6-0-1-stock-rooted-t3387717 and got cell signal, but data only for a few minutes.

Any way i can get cell and data?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Youdoofus:

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syco123:
Thanks for the reply. I ended up reflashing the stock Deodexed rooted ROM and the cell signal came back, so at least I was able to make calls.

I was about to try an old Lollipop ROM, but saw the latest comments on this Resurrection Remix thread all seemed happy, with no issues, so late last night flashed it. So far this morning I haven't seen any problems, I have cell signal, LTE and the SD card seems to be working as intended. Wifi is good too. Just need to checkout Bluetooth and even that's not essential. Will play with it today and see. So I think I'm good for now. Again, thanks for your reply.

[XDA Assist] woutflorian:
So, here is the situation before I got stuck in this bootloop my device (Samsung SM-J500FN) was rooted by Kingroot which never gave any problems.

Everyone was happy until Samsung decided to keep pushing these SE Security notifications by this so called Knox security.

Anyway, after many unsuccessful attempts of trying to sabotage this Knox security, I had to give up. It wasn't long after that until I decided to just follow the notification.

Meaning I enabled the Knox Security and accepted some sort of terms and conditions, the device rebooted and it never came back on.

I've searched all over the internet desprite looking for solutions, I tried wiping the cache, I tried a factory reset even tried reinstalling the firmware using Odin but no results.

Please let me know if you have any idea of what is going on here.

Thanks in Advance!

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] salomaoa:
I am running stock 3.2.6 OOS, but have already tryed 3.5.3 (using a modded twrp).

I went in to fastboot modeand got the info shown in attached photo.

Is this normal? No baseband? No bootloader?

How can I solve this?

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] TNSMANI:
My brand new (4 days old) OP3 also shows the same blank baseband and bootloader version info. I am running stock, not rooted (yet) and installed the OTA to 3.2.6

I presume it is a bug that the version numbers are not shown but it doesn't mean that you have no bootloader or baseband since the phone is otherwise running nicely.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] BBM-Lee:
Well I managed to do something and my background image got locked -- I can only change it by going to settings -> Today -> "Use image" -- but this forces 50%+ transparency on the image...

If I try to do it as I used to, Pictures & Videos -> Click image -> Set as today background (0%)... the background image does not change... If i have the waterfall background and i switch to pond at 0% transparency, my phone stays on waterfall with the default ~65% transparency....

I've been looking everywhere for an answer -- what causes this, how can it be fixed, or perhaps even where's the registry key to force 0% transparency from Today screen images?

Thanks for the help

Have you tried unticking the "use this image as background" option and then selecting another image in pictures and videos?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] BBM-Lee:
yeah, it goes back to the default theme background and the new image does NOT become the background -- not even with the crappy transparency settings...

I've tried all 4 themes that come with the phone, it all results in the exact same situation... I can change it if i accept the crappy transparency from the today menu.. but cant do it from other programs
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] bassplaya:
the same thing happened to me with my wizard. I fixed it by going to pictures and videos and then selecting the image i wanted all the way down to 0%. Instead of pressing the OK button at the top corner, press it on your keyboard.

Let me know if that works.

I have just yesterday got a replacement phone from AT&T after getting bitten by that boot loop found on certain models. Oddly, it took about a year to manifest. I now have LG 810, with Android 6.0 preinstalled, and updated shortly thereafter to H81022b software. So far, it's been okay, but with all my apps and data gone (I did not root the earlier model, out of fear it would brick my very expensive phone) I haven't done much. I am considering rooting it, but ... I need to make sure it will work right. So far though, the phone has not been acting weird, so it's good, I guess?

Is anybody familiar with this? I have read so much looking for away to put root onto my phone, even if it means flashing a rom onto it and then rooting. Or the rom comes with root.

H81022B

I have been reading for well over a couple of months, waiting and hoping there is even a lengthy method I could use.

Hey! Did you ever get your phone rooted? Because I have the h81022f. I think I've got a general understanding of what I'm going to have to do but I need to make sure that that last letter they add on there doesn't change a step or add or subtract something through the method of having to root it.

[Asus Padfone X and S] Nintynuts:
I am specifically having a problem with the Sky Q (UK) app, but this problem is likely not exclusive to it.

Sky are so anal about blocking people using TVs attached to their tablets, that it seems to also block the Padfone station.

It would be frustrating but bearable if I could only use it in phone mode, but unfortunately it's a Pad-only app (presumably due to DPI)

I have tried some xposed framework mods for HDMI hiding, and the HDMI virtual switch, but it still happens.

Does anyone know of a way around this problem, maybe from another on-demand app?

Sky do seem to have very well informed engineers writing their blocking code, as most root methods are detected even when hidden

It wouldn't surprise me if they are checking the physical hardware status rather than what the system/kernel reports.

If it's impossible to solve this problem for the Station, does anyone know of a per-app DPI switcher so I might be able to use it on my phone at least?

UPDATE: I tried App Settings for xposed, but it won't launch the app, so it never gets a chance to change the DPI... is there a way to make the app work on phones?

Many Thanks.
