Moto G probably bricked.? - Moto G 2014 LTE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

OK guys hi... I somehow managed to wipe everything from the phone.I mean everything.The phone boots au to the screen with the ''unlocked bootloader'' warning.Then nothing.if i press power button and hold volume down i can use the recovery menu and i can go to the TWRP menu.From there i cannot use the MOUNT>USB OTG option so the phone is not recognized from my windows.
The only option i see available is installing something from my SD card.But i have no idea what or how or if there's a way i can install again the original android files.When i try booting it says there is no OS.
Is there a chance fellas.?

The fact you have somehow wiped your phone I dont think you can recover any lost files but you can at least still use the phone. Try flashing stock, if you are unable to do this put a custom rom on the sd card and try flashing that.

I would recommend trying to flash the stock image first. I am unsure of what country you are in, the link below is for the UK filmware:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-lte/general/stock-6-0-marshmallow-firmware-uk-gb-t3337916
This also has the steps needed to flash the stock image.
You can flash a custom rom though if you wish. I have only flashed Cyanogenmod13 so I can not recommend a different rom although CM13 is brilliant.
to download CM13- http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=thea
for Gapps (choose ARM/6.0/ then I choose the pico but you can choose what you want- http://opengapps.org/
Once you have put them on the sd card flash cm13 then gapps straight after then just reboot, done.

Take your Sd card out to an other phone or card reader then copy the ROM and flash it

The stock image is not for flashing in recovery, you need to flash it with "mfastboot" on a pc using command prompt.
It seems CM13 will not flash as I take it you were still on Lollipop?
I will PM you steps on how to use mfastboot.

If you can already enter TWRP then just download a Thea CyanogenMod firmware and Pico Gapps for Android 6.0. Then flash the CM ZIP and then the Gapps ZIP and then restart in normal mode.

And one thing more. If you flashed TWRP for titan (XT106X) flash it for thea if your phone is XT107X. Then try to flash a XT107X Cyanogenmod firmware.

What is the exact problem you are facing when flashing the stock file. PLEASE EXPLAIN FOR BETTER UNDERSTANDNG.
ELSE YOU CAN TRY THE BELOW.

Make sure device is 100% battery.
1st try this:
1-Download this file: [ https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_1zjuazXSqbQ0p6NWtvRk9OMzA/edit?pli=1 ] and install in Windows (Run as Administrator).
2-Open Command window and type:
Code:
cd c:\adb

Reboot device from the boot mode, if the device automatically reboot into the boot menu then it will start flashing the file automatically.
Good Luck, let me know how it went.
Try and let me know.
this is excellent, all in one place...
However, please forgive my ignorance in recovery/backup terminology (I hope it is not just me) but I get confused by the use of 'Nandroid' backup, Stock Rom, and .zip and .img files for flashing.
I have successfully used TWRP to flash the NostromoPop ROM, but have not been successful with any other .zip file supposedly a Stock ROM.
I have been hoping that somebody could put a rooted Stock ROM so that I can try it as a way to get around the KitKat blocks on writing to the SD card for some of my autosync apps.
Am I making any sense?
Many thanks if you can help

Hi,
As I understand you cannot flash a stock ROM with customer Recovery, as far as I know you need stock Recovery to flash a stock ROM, I remember trying stock ROM on TWRP but it failed, could be due to some other reason, I read somewhere it has something to do with file signatures.
As for SD write fix, you need to have root access other than that there is no fix for it, rooting with SuperUser Binary... I myself did want to try it now that I am back on stock but then I am greedy for Marshmallow (if they could fix that Loud Speaker issue) I am all in for Android M, I tried to get in touch with people on the Cyanogen Forums but no luck as I have not yet received verification email, tried so many times, no luck and as it seems there is no Marshmallow development on HTC One Mini 2....
I will wait and see how it goes...
If I am correct you can keep stock ROM and flash SU Binary and get root access and then install https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix to get it done with, it ought to work, haven't tried myself...
The recovery image you gave seems a little broken, but the backup worked...thought I recommend a factory reset unless you want the system language to be weird...

Which recovery image have you used, I have flashed the newer version successfully, yes the backup worked and has non-English language as default.
The command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery_name.img
fastboot erase cache

Hi,
I believe you flashed a recovery with another recovery, which I think is not the right way, the right way is to use the command to overwrite TWRP with stock recovery.

HI,
Just wanted to know if you are having any issues with low audio after restoring Android backup from TWRP, I feel my audio is way too low and cant be heard just if I am outside my room..
I didn't have any audio problems, it could just be you being used to cm's 3rd party BoomSound replacement
---------- Post added at 01:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:21 PM ----------
Well that would exsplain why some elements of the stock recovery remained after I reflashed twrp with a app on my phone, e.g. it fixed the image I get when I hook my device up to power when it is turned off...before that it would just boot me into a unusable twrp homepage
The stock RUU file is corrupt! (tried 5 times now)
Where can I get a A stock flash or a ROM that is NOT ROOTED please?
I tried the 0P8BIMG.zip on SD card method and that did not work either.
Also, I thought the RUU file is meant to be an executable not a zip file. I'm confused...

I doubt its corrupted, which OS are you running currently ?, when I tried it, it failed due to the installed stock ROM being newer than the one being installed and since I have S-ON I cant downgrade it...
You can Nandroid Restore the stock backup, I have personally tried and it works....
Another way to do it is to have the Nandroid Restore and then use Sunshine to S-OFF (as sunshine only works on stock or near-stock ROMs) and then flash with 0P8BIMG.zip, it should work then, just a thought...
Hi, thanks for these links & info. Just about to give this a go. But, what does boot_signed.img do?

Its a signed boot file, meaning it flashes successfully should the device fail to boot or stuck on boot or in other words if the device does not boot and remains on HTC, this flashing this should solve your problem.
Hi all I have been directed here from another thread as I am looking to place a stock rom on my htc one mini 2 without bloatware, I have unlocked the bootloader and installed TWRP but the stock rom remains the same all I want is to install a rom via TWRP if at all possible. Is the 1gig one ok for that or will i need to completely put the stock recovery back on and the phone is unlocked to all networks if that makes any different
Thank in advance

Hi,
Its not possible to flash stock rom via TWRP, plus you need to have S-Off.
The only way to go complete stock is to restore Nandroid Backup and then flash stock recovery.

so is this the nandroid back up of a stock rom that I can use with the latest update for use with twrp and when I mean stock rom I mean a rom that has not been majorly altered to class it as a custom rom. I.e still has sense and no additional apps added
Again Thanks in advance

Hi,
Yes you will have to restore the Nandroid Backup, this backup is completely of a stock ROM, no edition, however it does not have some apps like the Calculator, Flash etc for some reason.
However I found the missing apps from here: http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/htc-corporation/

Excellent much appreciated for this right, so I need to first copy the nandroid backup to my Phones root and run TWRP and restore using the downloaded nandroid yes?
if yes could I please have the steps to put the stock recovery on with ADB commands as I really don't want to brick my phone (Yes I know you take no resposibilty etc) just happier to have as least the correct file names and adb commands.
And last I just copy the new stock RUU to my phone and install?
You help is as always greatly appreciated as no one seems to be ddoing anything anymore for this phone

[Solved]T-Mobile LG G4 stuck in TWRP Recovery

Hey there everyone.
I have CyanogenMod flashed in my H811. It was working just fine when in Marshmallo i.e. Cm13. but a few days ago it upgraded to cm14, nougat. there were a lot of issues and i wanted to revert but cm13 was nowhere to be found. the nougat version was working just fine when yesterday it notified me of an update. i downloaded that update and tried to install it. phone rebooted into recovery but it didn't automatically flash the update ( which it usually does whenever a new update is set to install) so i just located the file and flashed it and then rebooted it afterwards. that's when i saw that it rebooted into TWRP again instead of system. i've tried almost everything since yesterday. Flashed other roms, tried to restore backups but no success. even reset my phone completely and then tried to, but to no success. i cannot even access download mode which if i could, i would've had flashed the stock kdz. Everytime i try to reboot it into system or download mode, it just reboots back into TWRP. Please help.
Edit: I was using the wrong method for entering the download mode. i was pressing the volume down button instead of volume up while plugging into my pc. If you encounter the same problem, make a backup ( to restore apps later) in TWRP and move it to your pc, also backup your internal data (music, pictures etc). Also download gapps, check arm64 and android 7.1. Now Using the lgup tool, flash the stock rom kdz, the latest one is 20o. Your phone will be back to stock. Then flash twrp again using adb and use adb to boot into twrp. once booted, copy the cm update from your pc to phone, ( this is the update which caused the problem, back it up too. it'll be in sdcard/cmupdate/ ) and also the twrp backup that you had made earlier. Then on your phone, flash the cm rom and Gapps, and then restore the twrp backup when when restoring, go to advanced restore and select data only. and restore that. after it completes, turn on your phone, connect it to pc and move the internal data (pics and music) back to your phone.
I am in the same trouble except I am using CM recovery
Screen prompts below error message when flashing any ROM:
Patching system image unconditionally....
E: unknown command [log]
Somtimes I can see a broken (heart) android Robot
Then phone goes back to recovery home page
Anyone can help us? Should I flash TWRP recovery to overwrite CM recovery? Is phone hard/soft bricked?
Same exact issue. I have TWRP. Did the December second CM update and have no clue what to do.

i found the solution. i was using the wrong method to enter download mode. it was pressing Volume up button while plugging into my pc. i recommend you both to make a backup and move that to your pc, enter download mode and flash the stock rom, then flash twrp again and the current cm rom and restore the 'data' from the backup made. it'll restore the phone to back where it was.

"TO GO BACK TO LP FROM MM - Open LGUP on your computer, click on FILE PATH and point it towards your LP KDZ. Close LGUP and re-open LGUP. Make sure you select REFURBISH this will do a full wipe, tick BIN file. Press Start. Make cup of tea and be patient "

Hey, The flash rom of LG G4 is in the format .kdz. also, i used the .kdz which i already had from almost 3 months ago when i had to flash my phone to stock. so I don't remember from where did i get it but here is a link that i extracted from IDM.
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24572369242688134
Download this file, then on the lg flash tool, select ''Upgrade'', select your .kdz file by clicking the rectangular bar next to 'bin file' and then flash it. That's all.

Hey, i had to contact you again. Just wanted to ask if you by any chance had a cm13 backup or rom zip? I want to revert back.
Hey, sorry I don't, I wiped it I reverted to stock and the flashed cm 14.1 - its working well, but no xposed available yet.
Incidentally I think the whole problem was to do with updating from cm with xposed, to cm nougat (as yet no xposed) without disabling/uninstalling xposed first.

Tell me this, when you had cm13, could you record 4k videos with any third party camera app? Or play 2k videos on youtube or a media player? Because i couldn't until i recieved a cm13 update which enabled those features. Now i actually have a cm13 backup which is dated 31st of august. And it doesn't let me record in 4k or play jn 2k. So I'm searching for someone who has a backup after that. And the reason i want to revert is actually theming option in cm 13. 14 doesnt have it yet. Hope it gets soon and also Xposed.

Stuck in Fastboot Mode / TWRP without OS

Hello people,
I have an OnePlus 3T, which does not start the OS. I can open Fastboot Mode or TWRP. I do not even know which OS is installed (I think stock rom, but do not know). When I boot into Fastboot, I get the dm-verity notification "Phone is unlocked and cannot be trusted". When I boot into system, it stops at the black "Powered by android" Screen (very first screen).
When I connect my phone to the PC and open the internal storage, it shows only the "TWRP" folder.
So what Information do I have so far (with my amateur knowledge):
adb shell getprop ...

When I start the bootloader:
Product_Name - msm8996
Variant - MTP UFS
Bootloader Version -
Baseband Version -
Serial Number - *****
Secure Boot - enabled
Device State - unlocked
I tried to reflash the original recovery => device did not start in recovery anymore => reflashed twrp
I tried to flash the stock ROM => did not work (with this Error 7)
So my first question: Which OS do I have? Really Marshmallow 6.0.1?
Second: Do you need more infos?
Third and most important: How to repair this mess?
What do I want: A stable, rooted ROM. It can be the stock ROM, but also a custom, I do not care right now.
I read that this unlocked-notification appears because I have the wrong kernel? Is that true? Which one do I need?
Thank you very much for your help.
Use ADB Sideload to Sideload a ROM onto the phone since you have TWRP working. It's not a huge problem, and it's easily solvable.
*OR* you can use the Unbrick tool to solve your problem.

Thank you for your reply.
Okay so it is not important which system I run right now? And what about this kernel thing?
I can just flash it with sideload (e.g. https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...pment/rom-kernel-resurrectionremix-n-t3524715) and finished? Rooted and particularly working?
Sorry for the questions but I am a little nervous

You may want to Sideload the latest Firmware too, Open Beta 21 that is. And then Sideload a Nougat ROM. Don't sideload any GAPPs.

Nope, that's the complete stock Zip. Unless you want to install OOS, that's not the one to Sideload.
Download the FW only from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3t/how-to/firmware-beta-10-t3631166
And then Sideload it, reboot back to recovery, and then Sideload the ROM.

When I connect my phone to the PC and open the internal storage, it shows only the "TWRP" folder.

What is in the TWRP folder, anything? The TWRP folder would normally only be created, if a backup was created. You can possibly just boot TWRP, select the RESTORE option, select the backup from the TWRP folder, and get the phone up and running again.
Another possibility, if you aren't that up on adb commands (sideload, etc.), since you can access the internal storage, just download a ROM or fill stock ROM zip onto your PC, then just drag/copy to internal storage. Then boot TWRP, select INSTALL, pick the file, and flash it.
What is the background of the device, how do you not know the OS version? Did you receive it this way, or fixing it for a friend or something?

When I boot into Fastboot, I get the dm-verity notification "Phone is unlocked and cannot be trusted".

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That isn't the dm-verity notification. The dm-verity notification screen is similar, but says "dm-verity is not started in enforcing mode".
What you described is the bootloader unlocked warning screen. The bootloader unlocked warning screen is expected and normal (in fact, unavoidable) if the bootloader is unlocked. And unlocked bootloader is required for TWRP, flashing custom ROMs, etc.
dm-verity warning screen is in fact normal, as well, if you have TWRP installed. That one can be disabled by a couple different methods. But it's only purpose is to notify a "average" user that the system has been modified. For XDA users that are intentionally modifying their phones (TWRP, root, etc.) the warning is pretty meaningless. Under certain conditions, dm-verity will prevent the phone from booting. But TWRP and root in themselves, will normally not do that.
Neither warning means you have the wrong kernel, necessarily. And unless you (or someone else) tried to flash a kernel, there really isn't any reason to believe that.

Flashing stock recovery will (by definition) replace TWRP with stock recovery. You probably have recovery, just the stock one (not TWRP) which is fairly useless in your case (can't flash custom ROMs, root, etc.).

Click to expand...

Can't really troubleshoot this, unless you tell us what file exactly (file name) and where you got it from. "Stock ROM" is far too vague, and can literally mean a dozen or more different things.
Also, what version TWRP?
Using a TWRP version which does not support Oreo is one reason for Error 7. Or you may have tried a file intended for the 3, not the 3T. So these details need to be provided, before we can figure out what went wrong.
elchico92 said:

Click to expand...

You kind of need to decide which of those you want. Otherwise, there are just too many options for us to give.
Yet another option (in addition to those given) would be to flash the full stock OOS zip from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3t/how-to/official-oxygenos-5-0-1-android-8-0-t3728119
Then before rebooting, flash Magisk to root, and you should be all set. The full zip will put you on a fully stock baseline (including firmware). Which, if you aren't sure if you want stock, beta or custom ROM, is not a bad place to be; you can see what the "stock" condition is, before messing with things like custom ROMs. But again, it's totally subjective and a matter of personal preference, and you really do need to decide for yourself what is best for you (as an individual) at this time.

Yeah, that is a good option, among many. As I mentioned, there are just too many options since the original poster hasn't even decided stock or custom ROM.

Since OP hasn't mentioned whether he wants to use a stock or custom ROM. So I gave him the link for the latest FW, in case he wants to use a recently updated custom ROM without needing to download the whole Stock zip.
Done!
Thanks a lot. The phone is working again.
I have flashed with adb sideload the firmware and the ResurrectionRemix-Rom (Nougat) and then via TWRP the gapps.
So I hope, everthing will be fine now.
answers:
- TWRP-folder: yeah I created one because I thought, maybe to restore will fix anything
- I tried to flash with TWRP a ROM, but it says "Error 7", which means: wrong ROM => but I am sure, it was the right one
- background: it was the phone of a friend of mine => he never heard anything about ROMs etc

I already offered to troubleshoot this error for your, but you never supplied the requested info. Don't assume it is the "right one" next time, but rather, give exact file names, version numbers, and let us verify. Mistakes happen, and it always is good to have another set of eyes look at the specifics.

I'm stuck in Fastboot Mode & TWRP without OS
I everyone,
Like the title say I'm totally stuck, I don't know what to do ....
I've got a OnePlus 3T few years ago, and the first thing i did at the installation was to encrypt the phone with an option of oxygen OS, and after that i unlock the oem and add root access.
But when oneplus release a major update, there was issues with phone encrypted and unlock, for that I never could make an update of the OS, so I did try to install the lastest lineage os recently, and add an "error 7".
After reading a lot of stuff and try a lot of manupilations, i'm now totally stuck with only access to the fastboot, twrp, and the recovery of oneplus.
If someone here could help me, you will be very gratefull because i can't afford to buy a new phone for the moment... thank's

This should get you back to OOS:
In TWRP:
1. Do a factory reset
2. Flash OOS 9.0.6 full rom
3. Flash this modified firmware (to avoid the issue 9.0.6 with encrypted+unlocked) https://github.com/nvertigo/firmwar...3t/oxygenos-9.0.6-bl-km-5.0.8-firmware-3T.zip (see https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...5-0-8-firmware-barrier-t3941164/post79758055)
4. Reboot
This should leave you with a clean install of OOS 9.0.6 and an encrypted phone with the stock recovery (TWRP gets replaced when you boot stock OOS).
From that point you can do what you want.

OK, that's a little crazy but it's working, i've got a one plus 3T A3003, but i had to install Stable9.0.3+Firmware+Modem_OnePlus3.zip and not the one for the 3T ..... then install the last lineage os 17, and everything seems to work for now !!!

No! you cant flash a full nougat rom with fastboot.
Bootloader cant be downgraded!
for hardbricked phones you have first to boot it using the sdcard img.
then when you get bootloader working without sdcard, can use this tutorial

Change log: November 18 Security Update
NOTE: Like so many other users, I too updated my device with OREO and stuck with that. I haven't tried downgrading it because I don't want to end up with a hard-bricked device once again. Point here is the new build is not tested. So please take a TWRP backup before using this build. Don't forget to post me even if works fine.

Bootloop after "Factory Reset" from TWRP

I tried to perform a factory reset from TWRP cause it wouldn't let me from Configuration>Reset and Restore (or something like that), and after a reboot system didn't launch, it said something about an encryption problem, so I decided to restore a system backup I did and now my phone is stuck in bootloop. Someone can point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance.

When you install a ROM made for the V40 if your on Slot A when you boot into TWRP then the ROM installs in Slot B and if on B the it installs into A. But gapps and other flashable zips install into the current booted slot.
So flashing steps would be
1. Boot TWRP
2. Check which slot your on in the reboot menu
3. Flash ROM
4. Flash the TWRP recovery IMG. To ram disk
5. Go to reboot menu and select opposite Slot
6. Select reboot recovery and swipe to reboot
7.flash anything else gapps etc.
8. Reboot into your new working ROM.
