[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkXShadowX21:
Where to begin...

Okay, so I ended up flashing an incorrect .zip which caused my Nexus 5X to go into a boot loop. Usually, the fix is to go into TWRP and fix what I broke. Unfortunately, TWRP or Custom Recovery does not exist. The endless boot isn't booting far enough for ADB or Fastboot commands. Additionally, my volume down button my device is also broken so therefore I can not manually go into Custom Recovery. Also, I know I have the right drivers needed in my windows 10 machine to read the device. The device is not able to be seen by the computer currently either.

My question is, I am currently at the Firmware Update screen. This is the only screen I can currently go into manually. What is it that I can do from the Firmware Update screen ( Download Mode ) to restore my device?
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KarimKh:
There is a temporary fix or two so you can get back your data, but not permanent fix. The chipset will keep falling and the phone gonna die.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkXShadowX21:
That explains a lot...Lol!

should work

Can't test it since my device is in a deeper bootloop that requires Qualcomm files that nobody wants to build. :D

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vulturon:
Greetings everyone. I don’t know if this is right to post iOS telated question here, but since it is also Android related and is advance usage which I have experienced, so I think it is right...

I am an Android user (lg g3 for 2.5 years) and I wish to know more about difference with iPhone. For those advanced users in Android and ios please take a look.

1. Can I use only iTools，iFunBox to transfer files (not only pictures，music) instead of the need to use itunes?

2. Will Windows create .ips files in “My Documents” directory in C:\ when I connect iphone to my PC? Because iPod Touch 4 I used many years ago will do so.

3. Does iPhone have file explorer app, like ES File explorer, File Commander in Android, which I can manage files using the phone?

4. If I want to install .ipa directly in iPhone, must I jailbreak it first? I want to make it like install .apk inside Android.

5. Do iPhone have apps like Titanium Backup which I can backup individual app and restore it?

6. Do iPhone have something like TWRP Recovery, which I can backup the whole system completely, so no matter how I mess up, (whether in JB status or non-JB status)，I can restore exact the same status as the time I make the system backup?

Thanks in advance.

My TF300T is stuck in apx mode after wiping the system. Then after i wiped the system i was going to restore the system but the tablet died so then i recharged it and turned it back on and i couldn't go back in twrp recovery to restore i tried using fastboot to install a OS again then i installed it but id did not bot up to any thing so then i installed it again but then it looked like it wasent on.

luckily though i plugged my tablet into my laptop then it said installing apx driver.then i did some research and found that you can you nvflash to restore your tablet but later i found out (after trying to see how to restore it) is that i need a back up from nvflash but i didn't have one.

I guess my question is this:

How can i fix my tf300t

Please help ive been trying to figure this out for like 2 months
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ebonit:
I'm sorry, but it seems you did brick your devise seriously by doing things like wipe a.s.o. without enough knowledge.

The only way I see to rescue your device is going back on latest version of Asus stock rom 4.2 Jelly Bean. First of all you need ADB. Please download "Minimal ADB & Fastboot". Install it on your PC and check if you can get access to your tablet. To learn all about that stuff please read carefully this thread and place your problem there: https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2179759

[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] djskribbles:
Thanks for the heads up.

Just installed it on my device and it's the July security patch.

Really wish there was an option to wipe the system cache on this device. I usually do this on my devices after a software update and was surprised there was no option in the recovery.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] ctrclckws:
I hope it helps with my two biggest issues for nougat on this phone.

Battery life went to 4 hours or less.

And in the New York area, on AT&T it starts with a 4Glte connection, but then drops down to slower speeds and never recovers.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] acefsw:
Yeah, I have the same AT&T Lte problem. Just installed the update and hope it fixes it. Hard to test right now. At the airport and lte tends to not drop me here. The problem is generally reaquiring Lte after it drops to HSPA.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] -lukin-:
I see the update but can't get it to install. My RS988 is unlocked with TWRP and Magisk. Phone reboots to install update and goes to TWRP. Hit system reboot and back in OS without update installed

RS98821c Noticeable Improvements

My carrier is Verizon. I know hate me if you want.

Anyway the things I noticed so far almost instantly after installing this update is that my fingerprint sensor is faster. The phone is slightly more responsive, and that my battery life has improved a little bit. Awesome update for the LG G5!

[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] acefsw:
So far, it seems to have fixed the AT&T connectivity issue. I used Open Signal prior to this upgrade to analyze my connectivity. I was not locking on to/switching to the closest tower and always got stuck with HSPA even if there was a closer lte connection. It just would not hand off once dropped off lte. Now, it seems to work as it should. I am now always on the closest connection.

[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Dildacorn:
What do you mean tether options? You mean USB debugging for ADB and so on? They have been working for me just fine. USB 3.1 to HDMI works, and so does tethering for internet to a PC. Not sure what you mean by tethering options other than that sorry.

---------- Post added at 10:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:46 PM ----------

Agreed battery life did improve a little bit. I am still going to try rooting eventually and getting LSpeed in the process. Should fix a lot of the issues I have had with this phone!

---------- Post added at 10:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:50 PM ----------

I read on an older post that enabling "Force GPU rendering" in the developer options made the LG G5 faster. I don't know if that only applies to the older Marshmellow version or if it also applies in the current android nougat update. I'm testing it now!

Also to add to this post. If I leave my phone in my pocket when it is asleep it gets super hot! I'm not sure why, and I am guessing doing a factory reset will solve the issue. Although if I do reset the device, I'm definitely going to root it in the process. LG should release an update where we can clear system cache to solve issues...This has been in every phone leading up and has been known to solve issues with OS update... I shouldn't have to factory reset my device to fix stupid problems like these.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Dildacorn:
Ok, so enabling "Force GPU rendering" does make the phone more responsive. The battery seems about the same if not better than before when the option is enabled in Developer Options. Try it out! Hope it helps! :)

Installing 21c with TWRP

Hello G5 owners,

I have an LG G5 with an unlocked bootloader and TWRP installed. I am also currently running on stock version 21a. Excuse me of I'm being a noob, but how do I install updates? I have the update downloaded, but when i try to install it, it brings me to TWRP. Do I have to obtain the ZIP file from someone else?
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] kattolo:
In order to be able to perform the OTA upgrade at the very least your recovery (and possibly boot partition as well) needs to be the stock one, if you have TWRP and rooted the upgrade will fail.

I believe that the proper recovery for the 21a should be available in CODEFIRE's downloads

First of all I'd suggest you to take a full backup of apps and data (I personally use titanium backup) and save it on your PC

Go to the All in One thread from Autoprime (https://xdaforums.com/lg-g5/how-to/info-autos-g5-thread-t3350648) and look for "Download LG G5 Files From Codefire Here"

in the RS988 folder for the 21a I saw a recovery.img that likely is the stock one. If that is indeed the stock recovery, you can flash it in fastboot (you might need to flash the boot too if the update fails with the correct recovery) , run the update and then reflash TWRP and suspersu (in case you lose SU)

I would suggest you to confirm with the codefire team if that is the correct file (it is in the correct folder but the name is quite generic), worst case scenario, in case it is not and you have already flashed it, you might need to reflash back twrp and wait for the correct one to be made public before being able to run the update with minimal hassle.

If the boot partition was patched too upon rooting, some checksum might cause the update to fail as well

Alternatively you could take a full app/data backup, reflash 21a stock, run the updates, reflash twrp and then root again and restore the original app/data backup (as mentioned in https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=72649831&postcount=8)

I now have a question still related to this upgrade; is there any way to pull a backup of the 21c (including boot and recovery)?

No recent kdz appears to be available, hopefully we will get another patch sometime soon that could address the blueborne vulnerability, and I wanted to have a way to restore boot and recovery to stock so to run the future OTAs.

would I need to unlock, boot in twrp (fastboot boot twrp-3.0.2-1-rs988.img) and run a dd dump of sde1 and sde2 from there?
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Diablo_692:
I too hope a security patch is coming (we're still on July with 21c) to address the vulnerability you speak of, as well as a patch for Nougat that addresses "Doze" and how it seems to have broken the LG Email app, as auto syncing per the peak/off peak times we set up don't seem to work. It worked fine on 6.0.1, but not since the upgrade to Nougat. Now new emails only come through randomly throughout the day, if at all, without doing a manual sync.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] kattolo:
I have contacted LG in regards to blueborne and the fact it was addressed in the September patch, and while this seems a little bit of a "standard response" it shows that they are at the very least aware of the issue and they have acknowledged it:

"We recognize how important it is to help protect your privacy and security using our products. LG is committed to bringing its customers the utmost in device security. Your concerns have already been raised to our Developers team and please expect immediate positive response from them regarding this matter. I couldn’t provide you for now the ETA for a security patch/update to be pushed through to the phone to fix the issue but we will keep you posted once we got a word from them."

If they get back with some more info I will post some updates

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MestiZoMaymona:
I'm quite new at this... But I bought S5 Verizon model from a friend. But when I opened up the back cover it was a G900F model.

Which is strange cause the Verizon firmware 'seemed' to be working. I later realised that I couldn't send text messages, I could call though. And some of the sensors were not working, such as the gyroscope.

I tried flashing the correct firmware, tried changing the CSC. I was unsuccessful at both. But I did get the phone rooted and the boatloader unlocked.

I really need help, thanks a lot...
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AD FOX:
If your bootloader is unlocked then download the custom rom you want and put it in internal storage after that boot into download mod and go to Odin and flash TWRP recovery

after that do a nandroid backup and go go to wipe advanced wiping and wipe system, cache, dalvick cache and date

once finished, press on install and install the ROM you downloaded and install other packages if found like google apps

after having flashed all the files of room hit reboot system and wait till phone boots

First boot may take up to 20 minutes

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lonefx:
Hey guys,

I was running a old version of android (6.0.1) and wanted to upgrade my rooted phone today. Decided to try out Oreo, followed a guide that involved using fastbooting various files (bootloader, radio, boot, system, vendor). I got no errors along the way. My phone went past the android logo once and "optimized" my apps, restarted and was stuck loading the android logo. It now just keeps trying to load the android logo and reboots into TWRP recovery. After recovering, I am now stuck on the Google image while booting up.

Does anyone have any tips? Can I just try flashing a older version of android? Or is there a better way to fix this problem. Any help is appreciated and thanks in advance!

Edit: Was able to fix my issue. For anyone who is having similar problems, follow step 9 from Heisenberg's guide. Since I was updating from such an old version, a lot of the programs were incompatible with the newer android version and causing issues.

You could always put a claim return to it. Reseller might argue it was sealed but your point is valid
