issues with this HTC Desire since I rooted it. Could use any help!

Hello, my name is Rob and I'm new to XDA but I've used your forums before to help me root my Coolpad and this new phone (kudos)

So I bought this phone a little over a month ago and I've been super severely disappointed in it.

I'll just start off quickly by telling you a little behind my purchase...
I needed to upgrade from the Coolpad 3G that I had been using for months with Sprint's pre-paid and I was planning on getting a Samsung Galaxy.

Well they had to run my credit and I couldn't put down the 0+ deposit they wanted for the S5. So the guy brought up this HTC Desire that was on sale for .99 or whatever, without and research or anything I went ahead and bought it because I desperately needed a new phone with 4G capability for my new job... the sales guy sold me on it having 8 GB internal storage (Which was a huge lie... thanks, man), 1 GB of RAM, a solid quadcore processor and a decent camera.

I immediately got home and realized that there was only barely 1 Gigabyte of free storage and I about threw a fit but I knew I needed the phone so I kept it and I took the next step, (Rooting it so I could install and run link2SD)

So I went through the long, tedious process of rooting my phone and putting TWRP, superuser, etc. on it and got my link2SD going.

The day after I finished rooting my phone these errors started popping up and telling me that I had an update I needed to install and download:

(I guess I can't post the pictures I want to post on here until I make 10 posts? so I uploaded screencaps all to this directory)
http :// skakills.com /HTC/

It made it so I can't even use my Gmail or my hangouts app on the phone (Gmail being the most important) this is seriously distressing.

also , this update pops up every few hours and I have tried to install it but it just bounces me back to the recovery TWRP screen and I can't seem to figure it out.

I work a double shift at work every day, I play in 2 bands and I've scoured the internet, forums and lost tons of sleep over this, I just want to be able to use this phone for a few more months without these issues, if anyone has any kind of idea what I can do to fix the errors and get my updates installed or if there is a better option (I'm okay with wiping / resetting since my apps and pictures are all backed up) let me know ASAP, please and thank you very much!

Could really use some help with Lg Tribute 2

Hello everyone, Hope all is well with you all. I bought the Boost Mobile Lg Tribute 2 [LG LS665] [android v5.1.1] about 3 days ago now and as with any new android based device I get, gaining root and installing a custom recovery becomes my first priority. Well gaining root was no problem at all for me using the KingRoot app but the problem occurred when uninstalling some system apps\ bloatware. I uninstall the same system apps every time I get a device with no problems whatsoever. On my new Lg Tribute 2 I didn't uninstall anything I haven't before except this time when I restarted my phone I was(and am everytime I restart now) greeted with the usual phone initial setup accept it starts at the accessibility screen. Now keep in mind that my phone is already setup and has apps installed. When I continue the setup it goes through as normal and all my apps and wallpaper are still there. When I restart as stated previously I'm confronted with the initial accessibility setup - choose language - choose wifi etc ..... What i have found today is that instead of going through the initial setup at each restart I can instead access the settings through the lock screen and when i choose Settings \Home screen\Select Home and pick Home it simply bypasses the setup and loads the home screen which is great accept when I go that route my Home and Menu soft keys are disabled (not highlighted and unresponsive) plus my status bar wont pull down unless the phone is locked. What did I uninstall to do this. I can't remember what apps i uninstalled off the top of my head and can't find a list of preinstalled system apps on line to compare with. I know this is long so I apologize but I am stumped. Google search comes up empty as the Tribute 2 is fairly new as is 5.1.1 so any help would be appreciated very much. Also I for the life of me cannot find anything for the lg tribute 2 that could help me such as a working custom recovery, a stock image or any custom roms. Thank you for taking the time to read this very very very much.

Summary of problems:
1. Confronted with initial phone setup at each restart even though phone is setup.
2. My status bar won't pull down unless phone is on lock screen. (luckily because this gives me access to the phone settings and homescreen).
3. My soft home and menu buttons don't work at all ( only back button still works).
4. Cannot find stock image on line to reflash.

Lollipop 5.1.1 is coming. Could it be true?

Source: http://www.vcpost.com/articles/89581...#ixzz3lMb8jQg9

September 9, 2015

Android Lollipop's latest software version 5.1.1 is confirmed coming very soon to Motorola devices, including DROID Turbo, DROID Maxx, DROID Ultra, DROID Mini, and Moto Maxx. The final Lollipop update will bring new features, enhancements and security patches.

Motorola already reported previously a series of rollout schedules revealing which devices will get first the Lollipop update. As reported, there are a total of 17 smartphones Motorola is considering to update with the new Android Lollipop software, including DROID Turbo, DROID Maxx, DROID Ultra, DROID Mini, & Moto Maxx.
Aside from these devices, Motorola also considers 2014 Moto E, 2013 Moto E, 2014 Moto E with 4G LTE, 2015 Moto X, 2014 Moto X, Moto X Pro, 2013 Moto G, and 2014 Moto G. Soon to be released Moto X Style and Moto X Play are expected to run on Android 5.1.1 Lollipop out of the box.

The final Lollipop update will bring changes and bug fixes such as an improved Material design, supports for Android Pay, USB-Type, and fingerprint sensor. It will also feature new device switch, device sync and some other enhancements.
In Motorola's support page, a news report underscored that beginning August 10 security patches for the Stagefright threat were released and take on with the devices' software before 5.1.1 Lollipop even releases. However, other bug fixes will also be released for the upcoming update.

The final version of Lollipop will bring improvements in icons, home launcher, Material Design, and power management.

• Changing icon size in home launcher settings is enabled.


• Pressing up and down volume bars will bring the graphic up. Tapping the button on the right expands the volume menu.


• Tapping the icon on the left side twice silences the phone.


• New icons for the settings menu.

To check the update, just head over to Settings > About phone > System update > Check for updates.
DROID Turbo, DROID Maxx, DROID Ultra, DROID Mini, & Moto Maxx units under major mobile carriers AT&T, Verizon Wireless, T-Mobile, Sprint and US Cellular currently run the Android 4.4.4 KitKat.

CM won't work. Can't get recovery to work so i could fix CM.

my CM won't work so i would try to fix it from a recovery like TWRP or CWM but neither of them work. when i try to open recovery from the bootloader it just starts blinking the Teamwin logo with TWRP recovery. I have tried flashing recovery again with fastboot. I've tried CWM and TWRP but neither work. I can access The bootloader. when i try to boot my phone i get the CM loading screen and then the finish boot icon but after that it goes back to the CM loading screen and its stuck there. Sorry for the bad english.

Flashed wrong recovery, now stuck in Odin/Download mode: "Could not do normal boot"

First time venturing into rootin' 'n bootin' Android devices. Hopefully will have a long pleasant journey ahead, but due to a silly oversight, I flashed the wrong recovery file to my device (hangs head in shame). I'm an seasoned coder, but am somewhat new to Android.

Some info:
Model: SM-N910G (SnapDragon)
Device does not want to boot normally, stuck in downloading mode. The screen shows the following:
"Could not do normal boot. ODIN MODE (HIGH SPEED)" Reactivation lock is "OFF".

[x] device is rooted and was running stock TouchWizard (based on Lollipop 5.0.1)
[x] can't get the phone to enter recovery mode (by pressing PWR+Menu+Volume Up)
[x] device is not recognised in ADB (using "adb devices")
[x] Samsung Kies3 does recognise that there is a device but says it's unsupported
[x] device is recognised in Odin Windows (blue comes up)
[x] device is recognised in Heimdall on OSX (however, I have not used Heimdall for flashing at all yet)
[x] I now have to pull the battery to turn it off
[x] my main computer is a fast MacBook Pro, but have access to older/slower Windows 7 laptops (with only 2GB RAM).

I had the device rooted and working fine except for the fact that I was getting "dm-verity verification failed" errors when trying to make a Nandroid backup. So I tried to reinstall TWRP recovery -- this time rather than going through Odin, I tried it with TWRP Manager (installed on device). I managed to select the wrong recovery file (SM-N910F instead of SM-N910G -- in TWRP Manager this was somewhat unlclear, as I selected the "Galaxy Note 4 INTERNATIONAL version"; my device could be considered "INTERNATIONAL version", I should have been MUCH more careful however).

What is the best course of action to take from here on? I have read a serious number of posts on XDA, but am somewhat unclear about best action to take from here on.

All help will be much appreciated: amazing Karma coming your way to all who can help get this device booting normally!

**SECOND TIME DOING THIS QUESTION
--Awaiting an answer

Hmmmm - could this be my note 4 issue?

So had a note 4 since launch. After lollipop update my battery list 30/40% of its staying power AND my phone calls kept getting dropped or had no service where I previously had service.

I own a gear s and have it linked with Bluetooth 100% of the time....

So the last 2 days, I turned Bt off and wow. Battery life like old kit Kat and no dropped calls.

Hmmmmm

Where could I sell my htc one m7 parts?

For some reason its motherboard is dead , and repairing costs are too high. And local shops are telling me that its a paper weight. Any kind of help will be appreciated .

My Dumb Ass told my Wife's Parents I could fix their tablet (Stuck in Reboot Loop).

Good Morning!

I have lurked hear on and off when I had problems before with my Samsung phones so I thought I was qualified to help my Wife's parents with their Galaxy Tab 3 10.1. They aren't techy and will buy something new at the first sign of trouble. I was just hoping to save them a couple hundred bucks. All they told me was that it wouldn't turn on. I'm not a techy guy myself but I know how to google and follow instructions so I'm the de facto IT guy in the family.

What it appears is happening is that it's stuck in a sort of reboot loop. I read a bunch of threads about starting in recovery mode and hard resets or hooking it to the computer and updating it from there but nothing works. The computer won't recognize it when I plug it in since it's constantly rebooting. None of the button combos (power+volume up+home, etc.) work either.

I made a quick YouTube video of the problem but as a new member I can't post it but it just flashes the "Samsung Galaxy Tab 3" on and off until I suppose the battery dies.

Any ideas on what else I could try?

[Help] [SM-G920F] Could someone help me rooting a stock kernel from G920FXXU2COH2?

Hello everyone,

I was already able to extract boot.img and build.prop from G920FXXU2COH2, unfortunately my knowledge on rooting only goes this far.

I really would like to use the stock kernel, but rooted, would that be possible? Could you please help me?

This kernel is fast, corrected memory issues and some of the battery drain!

Thanks in advance!

Could not downgrade to get root

Hi all,

I'm a very big fan of this community, but only to read and learn. But now I need your help...

History: rooted my phone few months ago in the way told in this post. Everything went well, but last week my screen broke. Sony fixed it but also put latest software on it... and removed root.

Today I tried to downgrade to KitKat 23.0.A.2.98 again (stil had the FTF) to get root again, so I can put back my Nandroid backup. I didn't manage to get it working... after restarting after flashing when the blue screen appears before you are asked to unlock your SIM... my phone makes a pitching noise for 10 seconds and then reboots again. The process repeats itself again and again.

Fortunately I can flash the latest firmware back and my phone works again... thank God because a thought for a moment I soft bricked my phone.

Anyone a solution to get root? I'm now on LP 5.1.1

thnx!!!!
ciao
