My lg g4 had bootlooped issue too. Everything I did didn't solved the problem . From freezer to oven , and disabling two big core to remaining in only one core the device bootlooped everytime. Now what I did was : First I opened a device , remove the upper golden colour cover enclosing the processor, put some thin paper covering both processor and ram. Then put everything on their respective place. Then I turned a device it booted up. Downgraded to lollipop , disabled the big core using .tot method , rooted my LG G4 and enabled four core using free app by stojshic (Kudos to him: https://xdaforums.com/g4/themes-apps/root-4-cores-activator-t3538175) . The device is working fine since week . I've restarted the device many times to check whether I will get bootloop again, played games like clash of royale for 2 hours etc. The device is working fine with less heating. The main culprit is I guess golden cover shield which is worsening overheating issue . The CPU generates heat and the cover shield is increasing thermal cycle . If by any means a thin better insulator is kept between the CPU and covering shield, this may solve the bootloop problem
[G4 General] ezzony:
Yes but the the heat of the phone when your playing games and booting up will still effect the soc to get worse over time, just at a slower rate. Its not a case of "if it does't reach a certain temp it will be fine". It's a case of "the more heat the quicker it will bootloop, the less heat the slower it will take to bootloop" but either way it will get there eventually as the problem gets worse over time.
[G4 General] KristaaatsirK:
Any recommendations?

Can anyone recommend a copper heat tape (or something better) that would work to get my phone running again? It's overheating and therefore bootlooping, so I am curious if there is any specific things to look for or stay away from when buying something to fix this, however temporary it may be.
[G4 General] georgemb:
Copper is better conductor of heat .. So it will work as heat sink ..U can put thermal paste in between CPU and copper tape..

[MENTION=4721914]ezzony[/MENTION] was right, mine finally took a permanent dump last week after 3 more reheat attempts since last post, but it atleast lasted this long..

now im on a heavily modified Huawei Nova Plus converted from a MLA-L03 to a CAN-L11 software wise, so i could get perfect rooted Lineage OS 13 on it and xposed

i miss the camera of the g4 so much...

i still have my dead board Note 4, note 4 edge also dead board, and lg g4 dead board, all cause of same problems SOC overheats

seems like it was a common problem amongst tons of models too.... sad that we the paying customer get shoddy manufactured devices that we end up paying so much for...
[G4 General] KristaaatsirK:
Thanks a bunch! That's the exact video I've been watching and the most helpful too. I am just not sure if there are different sizes in thickness that are more conducive or not. Also, are there different strengths of copper to resist higher temperatures? I'm learning all of this through google, so I'm sure I sound as savvy as I am with technology.
[G4 General] ezzony:
Sorry to hear that, but yes I feel every G4 will suffer the same fate as in your case. Once it starts it won't keep running forever.

Yes the camera is awesome. The no.1 reason I love the G4 and no.2 reason is the textured leather curved back cover which makes holding the G4 very easy in the hand to manage, as it is a big phone. I was going to go with the G5 when my G4 died as it has the same camera but I really don't think it's as special as the G4. I picked up a new secondhand G4 with a serial number of 701 so I'm hoping the fault has been resolved in the newer version.

I'm not totally optimistic it wont suffer from the same problem in time though as I do feel it gets very hot that one can feel on the back cover . And the heatsink over the soc is virtually non existent in comparison to a Galaxy S6 I owned briefly which had a much more capable heat sink on it. I'm hoping the heatsink is not the problem and it was purely the chip itself, but I don't know for sure. I stuck a copper shim on the soc with some thermal paste anyway just in case, couldn't hurt.

I'd suggest to anyone who like me loves the G4 then picking up a newer version with a serial number of 701 or above might not be a bad idea instead of messing around with a clearly faulty one that will fail on you possibly at a highly inconvenient moment.

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] vitazdev:
Hello folks!

I am presenting you guys my first yet theme for Xperia devices - Retrowave Light.

(I have added Light to the name because I have thought of making a dark version of it)

Anyway, I have made this theme to represent a design with a Sleek and Colorful experience while remaining the Fresh factor which stands for the clean Sony stock-a-like experience. (Basiclly, that is why it doesn't consist of many assets and custom icons.) While making this theme I have also tried to design it in a way which me and maybe you guys, would really like to use for your everyday usage, which is also why it went the way it is.

However, this theme is available for Free on the Play market and works for Xperia devices from Android 4.4 to 7.0.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dedavlade:
So, long story short, my GS4 just froze up and shut off on me this morning while checking out Facebook on the phone, and now it won't turn on no matter what I do.

Removing the battery and holding the power button for a few minutes partly resolves my issue, as I am then able to actually power on the phone, but then it just gets stuck on the GS4 logo and doesn't boot into the actual system. I was also able to get into Download mode at one point, but I wasn't sure about flashing new firmware from there since my phone is rooted and has a custom recovery installed, and maybe that will interfere with the installation.

Anybody got some input on this? I am kinda freaking out here, would really love it if I could fix this thing without taking it to an overpriced shop, who maybe wouldn't even accept it due to it's 'modified firmware'.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MigoMujahid:
if it boot into recovery, factory reset your phone and wipe cache, it's a painful solution but it's functional.., I've had the same issue on another Samsung phone and that fixed it, also I don't think flashing stock rom would interfere with anything, you can try that as well.

[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] applesauceChris:
I've never been in a situation like this but. Can you acces to the stock recovery? There is a recovery where you can wipe everything, but I'm not sure if Samsung security has to do with it, maybe it won't let you wipe your phone because it has password? Idk, but it worth a try at least.

You acces to the recovery turning off the phone, then pressing "VOL UP + HOME + LOCK SCREEN" keys.

Just choose wipe data/factory reset/cache and restart. That'll do it.

*When you're inside the recovery menu, you can "move" through itwith the vol up and down buttons. Then to "select" an option you just press the lock screen button
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] RealRules:
As said before in post:

OPTION 1: Do a factory reset from Stock Recovery. (VOL UP + HOME + LOCK SCREEN when you turn on your device, then navigate through the options)

OPTION 2: Flash a stock firmware with ODIN

Chose one.

Use the fastboot commands but you have to be on 4.0.2 fw for that, once done you can dirty flash your respective rom to update to the desired fw

what triggers dm verity
[OnePlus 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Simone98RC:
Hoping to not come too late, the dm-verity trouble is strictly related to a wrong update process from Marshmallow to Nougat.

It's ****ing mad gaining root access to remove the alert screen!

To solve, you have to clean flash OxygenOS 3.2.8 or Open Beta 7, then update only via OTA to latest OOS.
[OnePlus 3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] siwan05:
Not quite,

What I've done to get rid of the dm-verity alert is to (when on OB 13):

1. flash firmware+modem from 4.0.2 in twrp

2. run commands through fastboot

3. dirtyflash OB 13 rom in twrp

Nothing more has been needed for me to solve it.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iceman248:
I recently switched from AT&T to T-Mobile and one thing I found annoying is that there is always a '1' before the number, indicating it's a US number. Well, I typically only get called from such numbers, so it's not like I need to see that. I didn't have that with AT&T.

This has my phone reading the '1' verbally out loud to me, also has the number when saving as contact to keep the 1, messing up the parentheses look I like for area code. It's mostly aesthetic annoyances, but it has been annoying. T-Mobile said no way to do it. Before I gave up, I wanted to at least inquire about a possible way to have my phone in some way trim off the number from incoming calls. I expect there not to be, but I didn't want to give up without trying.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MiniKoelkast:
Hi guys,

Since yesterday I got a problem that soon after startup my phone freezes. When it freezes I have to hard reset the phone(power button+vulune up). Before that my phone was working fine. but I wanted to reset my phone to clear up some space. I did that by going into the TWRP recovery and wiped cache, data, dalvik, internal/external storage and system. Because I deleted the system partition TWRP said there was no OS installed. This was very stupid that I wiped the system partition. But I thought that I could just flash the stock firmware back in flashtool so i did that. But now my phone freezes very soon as it started up. so I cant even complete the setup of the phone.

There was one thing that stud out to me. That was an error that I got when flashing the firmwares. the error was:

warn - unit 2212 not found in bundle.

Maybe this means something. I googled it but couldn't find a solution to the error message.

The things I tried:

-Flashed the stock firmware(centrel europe 1, central europe 5, customized netherlands)

-Flashed the stock firmware + flashed 2 different(kernel 1 and 2) custom kernels(centrel europe 1, central europe 5, customized netherlands)

-Flashed this kernel and installed this rom

-Flashed the boot.img from the lastest CyanogenMod 12.1 build and installed that rom

I did all this and it was always the same problem. I don't know what to do anymore. I hope you guys can help me. If u need more info I will try to give that.

Ive spend my whole day searching for an solution for this problem. But still I havent found any solution.

So I think that the SD card is the problem. When I installed a firmware trough Emma I took my SD-card and Sim-card out and put them in my backup phone(so people could just call me etc.). And then suddenly the phone worked. I first put in my Sim-card in my phone so I could install whatsapp and have my contants loaded. Then I plugged my SD-card in and after 3-5 minutes the phone froze. So I think it's the SD-card. I am not sure yet but I am going to do some more tests with different SD-cards. I will let you know every update!

Hi,

Hope you guys can help me getting my data back.

I messed around with Substratum in legacy mode on OOS 4.1.0 and ended up with a bootloop (I never saw the boot animation restart, just looping endlessly). To fix, I tried the following things:

Flashed the SubstratumRecovery_legacy.zip in TWRP 3.1.0-0 without any effect.

Dirty-flashed OnePlus3Oxygen_16_OTA_047_all_1703132116_f7372e67 without any effect.

Flashed OnePlus3Oxygen_16_OTA_047_all_1703132116_f7372e67 through ADB sideload without any effect.

Wiped data partition in recovery. System started normally, all data gone (obviously).

Before wiping, I had made a backup of my /data partition (through TWRP backup tool for Mac) and saved the content of /sdcard on the computer as well.

Now when I try to restore the /data backup through the same tool, I get an error:

E:Unable to find file system (first period).

E:Unable to find file system (first period).

E:Unknown restore method for '/data'

ADB Restore failed.

So what can I do to restore my data partition? That's all I care about.
