Just wondering if anyone has experienced the following and might have a solution. Today my P9000 has had battery drain and is showing 30% battery usage for WiFi. However the WiFi has not been able to connect, every time I switch it on it switches back off immediately without connecting to the available network - the WiFi network is working correctly.

I have done a restart and powered down for 20 minutes but still not working.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

[Moto G4 Questions & Answers] tsoheq:
I made a mistake when installing TWRP 3.0.2 on Moto G4 XT1625 US retail version. I selected read-only. So, when I boot back in, I get "No command" in recovery, presumaby stock recovery overwrote TWRP. I can still flash recovery from fastboot and then boot into TWRP, but it does not stay permanent. I can no longer go back and choose to allow TWRP to make changes.

I also found these instructions here:

http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/150211/booting-into-twrp-unsuccessful

But I'm still unable to make TWRP permanent.

When I installed CM13, it made changes so that TWRP is permanent (i.e., it survives when rebooted). But I can't do it with stock as I made a mistake mentioned above. For the time being, I want to go back to stock with TWRP made permanent so that I can install ROMs in the future. Since CM13 was able to make it persistent, I presume there must be some way to allow that to happen.

So, how do I make TWRP permanent with stock, given the mistake made earlier?

thanks
[Moto G4 Questions & Answers] SoNic67:
Stock firmware will always re-write the bootloader with the official one. You can always do "fastboot boot twrp...." followed immediately by the installation other ROMS, zips, etc (don't reboot to Android until you are done).

There is no reason to make TWRP permanent - except if you go on the CM ROM's path.
[Moto G4 Questions & Answers] tsoheq:
That's true. It is just that, without TWRP permanent on the phone, I have to use a computer every time I want to do flashing, backup or restore.
[Moto G4 Questions & Answers] SoNic67:
You can move to a CM ROM and you don't need that.

However, flashing without access to a PC with ABD is really not something that you should do. Unless you don't mind to have the phone service cut out...

On some phones, You can flash twrp from a terminal app if your phone is rooted.
[Moto G4 Questions & Answers] tsoheq:
I did mentioned that when I installed CM13, I did have root. But the battery life was a lot worse than stock.

And yes, the PC is around for when things go wrong. But in most cases, unless there are big things to change, I don't find the need to use the PC for flashing.
[Moto G4 Questions & Answers] tsoheq:
Yes... that will be my last resort.

I am now back to stock using a Nandroid backup, but that seems to have /system partition read-only as I can't seem to root (most likely due to my mistake at the beginning). As a last resort I will have to go back by doing everything from scratch. But at this time, I'm not rushing as I have a long overseas trip coming up soon and I don't want to risk being unable to use my phone overseas. Besides, Nougat seems to around the corner....

I Pre-Apologize If this Has been asked before My Interest at the current time is about developing a recovery image for my soft-bricked Nextbook Ares A11 Tablet android 5.1 64 bit Atom processor 1gb ddr3 ram if i remember correctly I was experimenting with trying to find a recovery image that i could flash to it and well :( Bricked I can however boot to some sort of bios hardware settings in it with the ability to boot from file and change manufacturer hardware settings ...I dont believe that is part of the android booting process but somewhere hardcoded! As for the android booting i no longer have the stock recovery<!--go figure--> but i still am able to access fastboot in download mode and i have the update firmware from the manufacturers for my specific device! Sorry if this seems like 2 questions If you could tell me wether i could flash the update to fix it has the boot.img in it also other files looks similar to how to root with file-systems anyways if you have no advice on how to unbrick my advice Here is the real question!! What matters when developing a recovery.img for a specific device what do i have to take into consideration as to hardware specs and software specs any good links to that would be awesome and for the final question how to distinguish my recovery partition type idk if it is MTD or BML I cant find the MTD folder so assuming it is BML I can also get additional info such as last_log or any of that I am able to USB boot the tablet into Kali Linux Sorry for Such a long and drawn out explanation I will revise my question if needed and possibly start two separate posts on this!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mounir9912:
I've downloaded the stock ROM from the acer site, put it on my SD card and went into recovery to apply the update from the sdcard. When trying to update I got the following error:

e: footer is wrong

e: signature verification failed

Installation aborted.

Now, I've searched everywhere and tried at least 20 different things without anything working. I've unlocked the bootloader and flashed the boot.img which was inside the update file I downloaded from the acer site, I've tried flashing certain files seperatly etc. Another problem is, there is no system.img or recovery.img or any other img file in the stock rom from acer which doesn't allow me to flash it via the fastboot. So either I need to find those img files, or I need a fix for the error above.

Any suggestions?

(One more thing, I really can't try using a custom recovery to disable signature verification because the Liquid Z330 is such an unsupported phone, there is no cwm or twrp recovery for it. I also don't wanna risk trying another phone's cwm or twrp on the Z330 because I don't have the stock recovery.img file in case it doesn't work.)

UPDATE: I found an older version of twrp for the phone and I was able to disable signature verification but when trying to install the zip I get this error log:

Updating partition details...

*in red* E: Unable to mount '/system'

...done

Full SELinux support is present.

MTP Enabled

Installing '/sdcard/update.zip'...

Checking for MD5 file...

Skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file found

Error flashing zip '/sdcard/update.zip'

Any new suggestions as to what might be the problem?

Update2:

So after Ysfzone posted this tutorial:

http://xdaforums.com/general/general/acer-liquid-z330-unbrick-unlock-t3520952

I was able to restore my acer liquid z330.

I did actually run into some trouble with Ysfzone's instructions, and found a way around it, it should be the second comment on the post.

My only problem now is that the system is restored it's booting into demo mode. When I try to update it downloads the update and reboots into TWRP and when I then reboot to the system it says that the install failed. I think it would automatically install the update with the stock recovery but because I have TWRP installed I have to find the downloaded update file and install it manually.

So I have two options:

Either someone tells me where the update download folder is, or someone provides me with the stock recovery.

Any help?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mounir9912:
(If you don't want to read the story, read the last sentence.)

I actually was able to get rid of the MD5 check error by creating a MD5 file myself. You basically have to download an application that gets you the MD5 sum. I used this: http://www.fast-files.com/getfile.aspx?file=127067 (just reuploaded it because I forgot where I got it from). Using the exe file in there I generated the MD5 file in this format: d2a862b7c1a8f66b6d1be32f400dc73e *update.zip. After that I tried installing the zip again, this time I got the same error except with the MD5 error missing. After contacting Acer support, I was basically told that I needed to send my info back so I could get contacted for a repair. But since I flashed the recovery it probably wouldn't fall under warranty.

So basically try emailing Acer support and try and get them to repair it. I havent found a way to fix it myself.

Hello everyone,

I've been in the same situation as you until few hours.

I've also tried a lot of things which doesn't work at all ( like extracting system.img from the Acer update.zip ).

I've seen that every time I tried to install an update.zip package I get the same error:

E: footer is wrong.

E: signature verification failed

And I solved it by unzipping and zipping it again.

Then when I was able to flash it and get my phone back.

if it still doesn't work with the stock recovery, you may try with a custom recovery ( like twrp, you can easily find it on google )

If you have any questions about it, I can try to answer them.

Hope it'll help !

Hello Mounir9912,

Have you try to re-download the file from acer website, or/and to check the zip file with winzip or winrar ?

I've read that you created a md5 file, for my part I just disable md5 verification from TWRP.

It seems like you've got a system mount error, do you still get it if you wipe all partition on your phone (system, cache, data, dalvik cache) ?

Finally, I don't know if it can be useful, but I have a TWRP backup of my z330
