[Q] FIDO Razr HD LTE problems!

Hello all -
New to Android platform. Hope someone from this great forum can assist ... I'll try to be brief. First, my device:
Razr HD LTE xt925
FIDO
Android v.4.1.2
Had attempted a little while ago to unroot my phone, as I was curious about better customization options. For various reasons, I tried to 're-root' and go back to factory. Did that, upgraded from ICS Jellybean 4.1.2 (which is what my phone was on when purchased).
Now, when I boot the phone, I still get the message 'Bootloader is unlocked'. After upgrading from ICS to Jellybean, I saw a large number of Verizon specific apps. When booting the phone, instead of the Motorolla 'M' icon/splash, I get a 'Droid' icon, with sound-effects. Also, System Version shows as 9.16.XT926.Verizone.en.US (even though my phone is an XT925 on FIDO). I obviously fudged something up... !
Most importantly, ever since, my GPS is very spotty, and I cannot get on the FIDO LTE network. In Mobile Networks setting, I have to always have 'Global' selected as network. If I choose LTE/CDMA or GSM/UMTS, it can never find an available network.
I'm really just trying to get my phone back to the state is was when I purchased it.
Any ideas would be GREATLY appreciated!

Here's the JB file for Fido/Rogers:
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/van...12.2_CANADA_VANQJBLTEFRCI_P004_CFC_fb.xml.zip

Thanks very much for your reply. I did try flashing with the FIDO file you quoted, and my phone didn't take it. I booted to fastboot, current drivers, and the RSD Lite message I got was:
Failed flashing process. 1/21 flash partition "partition_signed" -> Phone returned FAIL
The corresponding message on my phone was: Failed flashing process. 1/21 flash partition "partition_signed" -> Phone returned FAIL
Hope someone has an idea on how to successfully get back to the FIDO Android v.4.1.2.
Thank you all!

Have you removed the Getvar lines? You can also try the Telcel rom with Fido modem/fsg files placed into it. (That's what I had before custom roms because Fido was slow with JB).

Yes, I did try when removing getvar line in the xml.
I stated erroneously the error on my phone after trying the intitial FIDO flash - the phone error in fact was:
downgraded security version
update gpt_main version failed
preflash validation failed for GPT
I appreciate the input. Any other thoughts on this? I regret trying to unroot the damned thing in the first place... !

From what I can see, those errors come when trying to downgrade to ICS through RSD but you are trying to install JB so that makes no sense. Since you are bootloader unlocked you can probably flash the files through fastboot?

no worries man...calm down...you'll be fine...i had the same issue..i'm actually using an xt925 as well; had the same issue a couple of days back...see the issue is the ROMs that you see for xt925/926 is actually the ROM for verizon, so when you flashed a custom ROM, it actually flashed your GSM radio to the version radio, which is CDMA; These are the steps you need to follow, and you're good to go, trust me:
1). After deleting the getvar line, delete 2 lines below it as well, so lines 12 and 13, then try flashing with this new xml file. really imp, this will take about 5-10 mins, then the phone will reboot, dont unplug the cable yet, it's gonna reboot, and ask to sync phone with SIM, do that....and you're good to go.
2). Root.
3). Install TWRP, preferably 2.5, then backup your stockROM.
4). I would recommend using Matt's utility for xt926, and you can perform all the steps in sequence.
note: Since you unlocked your bootloader, you will always get that warning message, it's normal.
lemme know if it works!

eomahos I am in your debt. Worked like a charm!
In step 4 you indicated using 'Matt's utility for xt926' ... I'm not familiar with the utility. Do I use this to install TWRP?
Thanks again man!

LG G2 service disabled and can't soft/hard reset, no IMEI

I noticed that network coverage lost, service disabled was displayed. I put in different SIM card - no success. Checked IMEI - unkonown. Can't enter mobile network preferences(grayed out). Tried to reset through software, nothing happens. Then tried to reset by holding power+down key and after logo flash release power and press again power does'n work. I tried different combination, nothing happens. Then I entered 3845#*802# and when trying to to reset from there - again nothing happens. Tried to select network type in *#*#*#4636#*#*#* and it is changing back to unknown. Phone seems to be very slow and 4636 code needs some 5 minutes to start working.
What could be wrong? I'm out of warranty and have phone only 6 months. I haven't been messing with roms or rooting.
Model:LG-D802
Software 4.4.2
Kernel: 3.4.0
Build number KOT491.D80220f

You need to flash the stock rom

Thank you rico_g01
So I have to look for D80220f ROM version and flash?
Do you reckon it is the only way? I'll flash it, but I would like to know what could cause such a behavior.

Downloade and flash the latest firmware d80230a 5.0.2 from lg-phone-firmware
I don´t know why,it´s wired because this doesn´t hapen to non rooted devices

I opened LG G2 firmware page and got confused. I'm using phone in Ireland, but phone was bought in Latvia(Baltics). Which version should I choose?
I'm now trying to push through sales man who sold me phone to take it for repair, if it does not goes through, I'm going to flash. Never done flashing, so I'll leave it as last resort option.

You can downloade any firmware that is open for the d802
I have on my LG g2 PORTUGAL_OPEN_16G the latest one

H950 blocked

Hi guys, I bought the lg g flex 2 h950 att version and when i put another sim card it asked me to put a code, and i thought it was my sim card code. I put it like 10 times and a message appeared and said that the phone was permanently locked out.
I did a reset, a hard reset in recovery mode and it did not work, i also saw that i can reinstall firmware, but my version is 5.1.1 of android and if i do it my phone will brick. So what can i do? Please i have no idea

Hi men, I could fix it, i took it to a technician and he told me that was locked by at&t, of course i knew that, and that there was a server on the internet that could free that lock. I paid like 20$ on that page, honestly i don`t know what page is it but it was the solution, not flashing or even installing a new firmware

The OEM or Carriers has no update or standalone file at this time. Both state the updates are available only over a OTA.
Based on your details, a provider (Bell Canada, Ontario) has a firmware release (latest brings FW 7A.0.5-11-5.1.1-11.01.24 and Lollipop 5.1.1) that can only be obtained over OTA.
http://support.bell.ca/Mobility/Smartphones_and_mobile_internet/Operating-Systems?alias=sonim-xp7
There aren't any power user friendly tools, so I can see why you're frustrated.
But if I stumble across standalone tools, I'll host the links.

I'm in the boat too i was having software issue's with my phone then purchased another one on kijiji to try and get the stock rom off if it and flash it to mine.I'm having software issues and the one i just purchased the sim card reader is faulty. Sonim support's answer to me in both situations is factory reset the phone.
My issue is when i tried updating with there app it crashed 30% into the update and caused so irreversible bugs that makes my screen stay on all the time.I'm new to this and figured i could copy some system files over to my phone to try and fix this but u give up.Love the phone hate the company for lack of support.
I am stuck with 2 paperweights right now

Same situation here. Device will only boot to recovery, or fastboot.

Anyone has extracted partition images from FOTA update? Any help is greatly appreciated...
-albertr

Has anybody managed to pull off some of the stock files? My XP7 stuck on the Sonim logo after doing a factory reset, I think its the boot.img thats corrupt. I contacted Sonim who did not want to know. They did not even offer to do a paid repair as the phone was purchased off ebay. I had a long argument with them about support but still the phone is stuck. I can get into fastboot and recovery, have tried a factory reset, still the same.

very simple, go to settings, and scroll down to where it says about phone or info or something, then click software info, and you can find everything there. it is probably i9505.

yes but in odin mode show sph-720t not gt-i9505
-

ok your firmware is sprint, what Odin showing is the correct one, search for cwm for sph-720t.
DO NOT FLASH ROM VIA ODIN, flash new cwm or twrp recovery, then flash new rom through recovery. your firmware is most likely sph-720t which is sprint

i think is unlock because any sim card work and i leave in algeria not in us

your phone might not be original, because if you bought it in Algeria it should be the international version, basically i think it is the sprint version, if Odin says so, you should look for your sprint firmware, but also for android 5.0.1
