now I cant revert back to my stock rom, due to some partition error
version downgraded for primary gpt
image file is too large
Although Paranoid seems to install fine and works, but I have no signall at all, neither both sims works
I need some help here, it seems a lot of people like me is experiencing this very same problem, but everything is too fresh and yet I did not found a plausible working
solution, I would be really greatfull if someone would come up with some genious Idea.

that gpt error is not important.have the same error if i try to downgrade from lollipop to stock kitkat but all works fine after boot.revert to stock then reinstall rom .that should fix the signal problem.

Thanks for the reply , you tried ro revert with these errors and managed to work? Mine cant even load the OS, I get stuck at bootloader logo, I can only install custom firmware trough recovery .Sorry to ask, but how did you managed to load the OS with these errors

Never mind people, I've managed to fix my problem, I installed the correct TWRP recovery for my model and managed to install CM THEA and everything is working flawlessly.
The problem is that installing an incorrect recovery will mess the partition, I am sure I can go back to stock now if I use ADB to reflash, but I dont want do go back anymore, there is a bunch of new options avaliable im CM will wont even want the simple stock rom never again.

[Q] Wifi problem

Hello! I just bought this phone today and I've just managed to unlock the bootloader and install my first rom. However my wifi has been acting very weird. It works when using stock kernel and stock rom but hasn't worked on a single custom rom. I've tried a lot of them as well such as "xenon" and "pac". What is wrong here?

I'm a new user aswell, but I used other phones b4 and I recommend you to factory reset before Installing these roms (If they are not installed over stock rom), if you install them over stock ROM(which means the zip file DOESN'T format your /system partition) you should consider a factory reset after installation.
Before trying these, if ROM developer told you to use a specific kernel, try to flash that kernel back, I had some problems while installing some kernels and could never get my Wifi to work until I reflashed the kernel.
Take a nandroid backup to your external sd card before trying these, better safe then sorry
Maybe e reflash using the lastest original kdz firmware and going to alll the root - > CMW(now is oficial) - > install custom room should be the way.

Is this ALL Wi-Fi connections, or just a particular one that you are having trouble with? Is the Router set to use WEP? If so then you're out of luck as WEP has big problems, but as it is old technology you shouldn't really be using it anyway.

[Q] (Q) Problem with Carbon and Mahdi Rom

I 've tried both roms (clean install) but only the front camera is working (model d405n)
I 've tried with CWM and TWR but with the same result.
Is there any fix for that?
No idea... Have you done a full wipe?
(If you realy want, you can restore everything with kdz en start all over again?)
We have one guy on polish forum with the same issue. Strange thing, as if there is more than one d405 variant.
Yes i did a full wipe.
I restore with kdz, root again, full wipe, install rom, and the problem still exist
is there any kernel i can use?
I use the latest CarbonROM (CARBON-KK-UNOFFICIAL-20141004-1556) for my D405n and front camera works. Are you sure you flashed the correct bootloader image (boot.img)?
i can not find a link for that build. Can you please post a link here?

I haven't seen anybody got fix for that yet and it may me a little problem since most users don't experience this bug whilist having the same phone version. Maybe some dev might look into it and tell you at least what it is caused by

[Q] VERY worried about flashing miui rom and new bootloader.

I have just recently restarted using this phone due to my uscellular S4 getting turned off. I am now back on my LG-P990 currently rooted and running CM10.1. BUT most importantly to me is the fact that I have all my wonderful apps on my s4, I want to be able to use them by using the LG phone as a tether and calls not much else BUT CM10.1 tethering does not work, so i find myself flashing rom after rom, avatar rom, older CM mods, none would turn on tethering, so i flashed a modded version of MIUI for this phone and it worked except for ONE thing no signal, tethering turned on just fine so i decided to look around for other roms and found Slimrom TRYED to flash it didnt work, try to flash actual MIUI roms off there site, didnt work, met with an error in CWM Recovery after some searching I found its because Im running the OLD Bootloader -_- THIS is the issue im having IF MIUI does NOT work is it possible to downgrade the bootloader again so i can restore my CM10.1 backup? I have been working at this for a week, if there is something here about this can someone please just point me at it? I would appreciate any help.
On a side note i DID soft brick the phone the other day and found a program called nvflash witch flashed an install of CM mod. Dont know if that will help any.

I really do not understand how other ROMs deny Tethering. Did you flash the latest 2.x kernel by pengus77 after installing the rom? Did you make a clean install(wipe everything then install)? On the other hand, yes you can switch bootloaders as much as you like, just remember that changing the bootloader wipes everything on your internal memory, so do a backup. Did you try just plain old stock 4.0.4? Should work there. Ask anything you want, if you're still having questions.

As to the flashing to stock i lost the original rom backup i had made along time ago and cant find the original firmware anywhere online. When I flashed CM 10.1 I just ran with it, when i go to try tethering it says "Turning on portable wifi hotspot." and it stays on that no matter what untill i restart, left the phone running for 2 days once and that was still stuck on that before i restarted. As for flashing a 2.x kernel i had no idea about that. But yes when i did the installs i would do a clean wipe and install. Most of what i read online led me to believe that there was an error with CM 10.1 nightlys that was not being fixed for the tethering. So that is why i decided to go to another rom. Two questions one how do i go about finding the original firmware for this phone and two how would i go about updating or downgrading the bootloaders and could i be pointed to the files please?

Okay, This is SFSP by @sgspluss which is a pretty fast, stable and battery-friendly slimmed down version of stock ICS. It is available for both Old and NewBL, so you might want to try that first. This is AIO Toolkit. I know that you've used it and bricked your phone, but try again, and for the love of God install the nvflash drivers because most people skip that part. You have to do it manually and if you're running Windows 8 you need to disable Driver Signature Verification. But yeah, you switch bootloaders with this.

Appreciate your help on my LG G4 H811

Hi, guys:
I really need some help to make my LG G4 H811 work.
I flashed latest lineage-14.1-20170404-nightly-h811-signed.zip but my camera app "Keeps Stop Working". I tried other camera apps, none of them work.
I also flashed cm-13.0-20161010-NIGHTLY-h811.zip, same problem
I even flashed stock (but rooted) ROM, LG-G4-H811-20R-Stock-Debloated-Rooted, still the same problem.
I am using twrp-3.0.3-0-h811.img (the latest version for H811) and flash my phonh using ROMs from SD card.
Before I flash anything, the camera worked fine out of box.
Should I bring back stock ROM with LGUP/KDZ? However, I really need some 3rd party ROM working because I need multiple-user feature which is disabled in Stock ROM.
Any suggestion is very much appreciated.

thank you for the kindly reply. The issue has been solved by flash Stock 20p KDZ first in download mode then flash the same LineageOS through TWRP. Not sure which step really fixed the issue though.
I do have issues of video recording for 4K and 1080p, which is OK to me for now.

[CLOSED BY OP] No more sound (including calls) on EMUI 5/Nougat ! Please help !

Hey guys !
I really need some help. I installed Nougat on my device and it worked fine. I even rooted it using these files : https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p9lite/development/twrp-t3588356
Everything worked fine. I could even do Nandroid backups with apparently no issue. But I think this occured when I restored.
Now I don't have any sound at all, including when someone calls me. I don't think this is hardware related. Plus, boot logo shows "android" instead of "honor".
Please tell me I can do something. Flash some file ? I tried the factory reset and wiped everything from TWRP with no luck...
Edit : Phone sent back to customer service. For your sake, I recommend you to be careful if you decide to use this TWRP. Everything seemed to work fine before I flashed a nandroid backup (I'm pretty sure this is what caused the issue), but one can never be too careful. My advice ? Don't use it on your daily device, wait for an official TWRP release (meaning stick with the stock ROM if you want EMUI 5/Nougat) or stay with Marshmallow for the time being if you need root.
