[Galaxy Note5 General] imDCStar:
Hi Guys,

I purchased this used Note 5 K model yesterday. I wanted to update it's rom. I checked it. It was rooted but there was no TWRP.

When i connected to pc. It's was not recognized. I installed drivers. Changed 3 cables. But nothing.

I thought maybe i have to change USB debugging so it did it. With that i disabled OEM unlock option.

Now it's not even booting. There's a red text showing on top FRP Lock.

I've no idea what to do now. So confused.

Any help will be really appreciated.
[Galaxy Note5 General] imDCStar:
Now it shows FRP Lock On.

Install the stock firmware (4 files) with odin https://sfirmware.com/ or maybe try to find it from androidfilehost.com
[Galaxy Note5 General] kzhtun:
After install stock rom, odin log show success and restart.

When it's back device is show "updating software" and increasing percentage.

And then it's show as "earsing" at 32% and restart.

Now it's stuck in samsung logo.

I've done a couple of times with diff stock firmware ver for N9208.

Any advise please?

Hi, thanks for this helpful guide! I have a question/problem, I did all this steps and the flash started but it got stuck at system.img for more than an hour so I canceled by holding Volume DOWN + Power button, now I have a message saying: an error occurred while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the smartswitch pc software. I tried that but my device doesn't show up it just tells me to use it there too. I've retried flashing using the same version but still gets stuck at the same place. I am trying to download my original firmware I really hope it'll work.

Edit: I tried with original firmware and still got stuck at over 50% .

Edit2: I tried using a normal USB-C to USB cable and stock firmware worked :)

Out of no where my phone screen is mostly white with lots of multi colored vertical lines. I tried resetting it hard, soft, and reset it to the defaults. I still cannot see anything on the screen. I assume its a loose cable to the screen, but since i am under warrenty i didnt open it up. I already have a replacement warrenty phone on its way, but i dont wanna return a cooked rom. What do u guys think the best way to reformat the phone back to an original rom?

from what I can see from the photo your screen is cracked
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] beezza:
No its not cracked at all. Ill try and take a better picture.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kareeem:
To take a better image, use MyMobiler (although i do suspect it'll give the regular windows screen).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] bilbobrian:
that certainly looks like a crack to me, it won't be really apparent if its on the back side
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] biofilter69:
yeah that is for sure cracked, well unless you drew on the screen with a black marker. you do know that if you send a warranty phone in that has physical damage they charge you the cost of the replacement phone they sent you?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] beezza:
i tried using my Mobiler (which by the way ****ing owns) and i dont see anything wrong with the screen.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] beezza:
can anyone say ****? How the **** could i have cracked? (obviously u cant answer that). I already started the warrenty process. Any smart ideas?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] bilbobrian:
ive read a few threads that screens will just crack sometimes without real damage. sorry man that sucks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] beezza:
I appreciate everyones help. Maybe they will look past this small "crack". Do u think its possible to re flash the rom without a working screen?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] bilbobrian:
yeah i suppose you could flash it but you won't be able to calibrate the screen, try it and then check my mobiler to see what is going on.

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnnybravo9:
Hi guys,

this is the second time that LG bricked my phone. I updated my g4 and now it won't boot up anymore. Installed was Android 6.0 and the last security patch was from 2016-08-01. Software version was V20h-EUR-xx. I already had the fun of having the famous bootloop and a screen burn in, so i basically got a new phone in early 2018. Mid 2018 i got the notification of a software update (it said something like stability update and was just 50 MB big) but I didn't have the time to back up my stuff properly so I delayed it till yesterday. Two days ago I was preparing myself for the upcoming android 11 devices, so I saved my photos etc and got most of the stuff out of my phone, then I did a backup through the onboard app (LG bridge won't recognize the phone most of the time and if it does it tries to save the backup temporarily on the phone, which didn't work because of low memory space(on a sidenote wth is the g4 doing with all the memory space anyway)) and saved it on the sd card. After that I updated the phone. A screen appeared with with software update process (1/2) and (2/2) and both completed succesfully. After the reboot it got stuck on the LG animation logo, this is a screen right after the "lg powered by android" screen, and it is stuck there since. I tried to get into recovery mode but was unable to do so.

So yes I have a backup, but afaik no user data gets saved in the app backup, am i correct? This is the reason why I haven't tried to hard reset yet. I thought maybe some bright minds in this forum know a way or solution to this problem.

I have read a little bit about LGUP and TWRP but i don't know if this will help. And i don't know which firmwire i need cause there is a bunch with H815.

What I'm asking is, is there a way to restore the phone without losing my data that is still on the phone?

sry for the long text, let me know if you need additional info

greetings Johnny

tl;dr: LG is producing garbage, please help
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnnybravo9:
UPDATE 1

I was able to get into download mode.

Plug the USB Cable into the PC(not connected to the LG G4)

Have you PC Powered On and Logged in

Power Down the LG G4

Press and Hold the Volume Up Button on the LG G4

While Holding Volume Up, Plug the USB Cable into the LG G4

Continue Holding the Volume Up Button After You See ‘Download Mode’

Let Go of the Volume Up Button When You See the ‘Firmware Update’ Screen on the G4

Right now I'm trying to do the update via LG Bridge and the download mode.

Funnily the update is now 1,68 GB in size while on the phone the size was roughly 50MB iirc.

My free memory space is only about 4GB, so i hope this will suffice.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnnybravo9:
UPDATE 2

The installation was sucessful but only on my second try. The first time it failed at 81%, so I did it again as I was told via LG Bridge and followed the instruction steps. The second time it worked. After rebooting I got the screen that 80 apps are getting optimized. Took nearly 40 minutes. After that I got in and did a quick check if everthing was alright, saw that some apps weren't installed, so I restarted it and the rest got optimized. Power off again, sim and sd card plugged in and power on. Now everything seems alright and if I'm not mistaken battery life has improved.

So in the end it was a failed update caused by LG and fixed by LG Bridge.

BUT in the meantime I contacted LG customer support and it turns out customer support is on par with their update policy, non existent!

Talked to a guy who didn't understand what I wanted from him, so he gave me a number where I could call. Called there, turned out it's the company who repaired my phone when I had the bootloop and screen burn in. After asking them about technical support, they told me they don't do that, they only repair. I understood, so phoned LG again. The same guy picked up again (is he the only one there?), so I asked again. This time he googled my questions and told me he can't find on google what i'm asking. I thought he has to be kidding but he was serious. No blame to this guy though, he is first level support and obviously not qualified to answer such questions, so I asked if he could redirect me to someone who could answer my questions and help me. Therefore he let me wait in the line to call a colleague so he could tell him my problem and then told me the answer of his colleague. I wasn't satisfied so I insisted to talk to this colleague of him, he said it wasn't possible because of technical reasons, but he phoned his colleague and but both phones together so we could talk (wth haha). Needles to say I didn't understand anything and I was absolutely bewildered about what was going on and the state of the LG support. I tried to convince this guy the he was of no help to me so if I just could call this other guy or be called by him would really help me. Finally he understood and gave in. He wrote down my number and five minutes later the other guy called. Well he was of no help either. Couldn't really answer my questions but could at least explain two things of interest to me. I am still shocked of the state of the LG "support". Don't they have guys who know their products and their software?

Thankfully everthing is fine now and I definitely know that I won't buy an LG smartphone ever again.

(The camera and the screen were really nice though)

[General Questions and Answers] Stract:
Hi guys,

as the title states, I'm not able to delete the folder "/sdcard" I created.

What I tried:

TWRP:

File manager > Go into folder > Delete - error 1

Mount system > File manager > Go into folder > Delete - error 1

Mount system and Micro SD card > File manager > Go into folder > Delete - error 1

Mount everything > File manager > Go into folder > Delete - error 1

ADB:

adb shell rm -rf /sdcard - resource busy

adb shell mount -o remount,rw and then rm -rf /sdcard - resource busy

Why is this folder there?

Well, I have this HTC e8 with barely no battery and when I was installing LOS yesterday there was a power outage and it corrupted the installation. After being able to go into recovery I lost the touch controls in TWRP. Went via adb and didn't remember the path to the sd card, so I could send the restore command. After trying the ls and find commands and end up with millions of records my "brilliant" idea was to use the mkdir command to test for the common sd card path names...

Anyway, after reinstalling LOS (with wipe data) I noticed it didn't let me use the sd card without formatting. Then I went into TWRP File Manager and found out the "/sdcard" folder I created had all the folders that LOS usually creates in my sd card (which the path is "/external_sd"). So now I need to delete this folder and reinstall everything again so that LOS can see "/external_sd" as the true sd card path

Do you guys have any suggestion I can try here?

Thanks in advance
[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 1890170:
You cannot operate on a folder / file that is currently in use by another process - this might be a daemon or whatever: If you try nevertheless then you get error message "Resource is busy" or similar.

When I try to mount a partition then I always do it this way

cd /
mount -o rw,remount <mount_point>

what always worked for me.

Hi all, I've a rooted Moto G4 with stock 8.1 ROM, have removed/disabled a number of packages with Titanium Backup though. I notice it will reboot at seemingly random times, maybe once a month. Any idea what could be causing that or how I can troubleshoot it? I saw some threads talking about random reboots and they mentioned to check /proc/last_kmsg but that file doesn't exist on my device.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] SpiritOne:
Well, I upgraded my poor quality AT&T phone yesterday for a tilt. Took about 5 minutes of ownership when someone sent me to this site. I upgraded my software to mobile 6.1 after seeing the differences.

At first I had problems, the software I downloaded from the HTC webiste kept failing in windows xp. I don't know why. When I tried to install the hard SPL, I got the "white screen of death". The JumpSPL program worked, but I wasn't quite sure what that did... Eventually I restarted my computer and booted into my Vista (ick) install, and amazingly the HTC software finally stopped failing and upgraded the phone.

Very nice features, I like it a lot. This site was incredibly helpful. Thanks to all you programming gurus.

Oh also, what is the "radio version" stuff?
