I have HTC one (M8) unlocked, S-off(used sunshine) running TWRP custom rom. I have rom manager pro, supersu pro. Unfortunately I have deleted carrier software "discover" and "updater" I have received software update file 2.22.161.6 (706.34mb) and have tried to install several times but it constantly fails. The best I have had is the install gets about 25% along the green bar and then goes to the "red triangle" which I believe is the wipe cache symbol. I am a complete newbie but thought I had read up enough and watched enough videos of "how to" - to actually get by, obviously this is not the case and now I'm stuck and don't know what to do I have searched the web for other users in a similar position but can't find any answers/solutions. On one occasion when I tried to install the update the teamwin screen came up and then went to fail with quite a long message that I photographed but it did say "MD5 file missing" I wondered if this was down to removing the preloaded carrier stuff? I don't mind doing a factory reset if that is advised but will I loose my paid for apps? especially the S-off bought through the sunshine app and quite expensive.
Can you please help / advise.
P.S. the phone is working perfectly I just can't update even tried flashing a couple of stock rom's via PC but just returns to TWRP every time.

Help needed with: Stock rom "FORCE CLOSE" also unable to install any other rom
Heya all, I'm new to the forums.
I've got an issue (or several) with my GALAXY S I9000. It was semi-bricked and I was able to (SORT OF) resurrect it.
The semi-brick consisted of constantly deploying Samsung logo. So I downloaded odin and found (many) stock roms with different androids: froyo 2.2, gngerbread 2.3, etc.
Any android I installed, right when there's the welcome steps such as configure accounts, wi-fi, etc. I started to get stormed with "FORCE CLOSE" windows to every application going (mostly GAPPS, but it's relative assuming most of the apps in these devices are google apps). This delayed the cellphone's speed terribly, oftenly rebooting and eventually allowing me to reach the home desktop, obviously throwing forcecloses every 4-5 secs.
Towards this I installed a different CWM version with ODIN, and I was going to install another rom w/ different gapps. Then it said "E:/ NO SD CARD" blabla. So i gave the sdcard a format and now it doesnt say "No SD CARD" but every rom i try to install says "ERROR (STATE 0)"
Frustrated, I tried stock roms again, (2.3 and 2.2) and I downloaded specificly the 2.2 and 2.3 gapps, installed them with CWM lending a prayer and nope, it didnt work.
I obviously ran out of ideas by now, so I came here where everyone knows more than I do (which is no merit) I beg your help!
Maybe I flashed it with a wrong PIT, or the CSC is wrong, or the ROMS arent for this device i9000, i cant know for sure, even though i read every article i downloaded stuff from (just in case) and it looked like the right one. Anyway, don't guess I did anything right, because I must've missed something. (i am paranoic indeed)
Thank you very much!
P.S. My brother has the same i9000 and I installed the roms I downloaded for mine on his device and these workedp erfectly. (But he had CWM already installed so it must've been a problem with odin flash)

hi there,
i have a SM-9005( Australian Telstra) which i bought used a couple of weeks/ about a month ago. NOT KNOWING WHAT I WAS DOING i tried to install android 5.0 via odin but, the thing that i did'nt realise was that it was the hong kong firmware after installing it i encountered a problem something like " binary (number) < (number) i figured that it was because when i decided to install it the storage was about 95% full and it only had like 300mb left so i just went into recovery and restored the phone. after successfully installing 5.0 i noticed that the phone was starting to be glitchy as in system would'nt respond (lag) no sound and camera and mic and calling wouldn't work. so i decided it was best to just roll back to the old os 4.4.2 and thats what i did. after doing so i realised that the same problems were still there "no in/outgoing call, no sound, no Google Now, no S-Voice, no camera, slow lock screen and slow settings" after trying to research and not finding anything that would help me ( mainly as my phone is Australian variant) i decided to install a custom rom Cyanogenmod, although this fixed the camera the other problem were still there and after trying to even restore from a nandroid backup via twrp recovery the problem has still not been resolved and well....:crying:

Thread closed.
Just wondering if this is normal:
I just got a second hand htc one m7, rooted it and flashed it to the latest ARHD rom running lollipop.
After factory resetting and rebooting, i got a message saying:
Android is upgrading...
optimizing x of 229 apps.
is this normal considering that there are no apps installed and that i had wiped the cache?
Are these apps from the previous user? if so is there any way to wipe them?
I cant see any of these files in file manager either.
Sorry if this is an obvious thing, but i haven's anything beyond gingerbread before.
thanks : )
Hi there,
No sir. That apps are system applications, preinstalled.

Every few days, my Virgin Mobile LG Volt notifies me that I have a system update available (zv6). I've tried several times to install it, and my phone will restart and display the system update screen with the progress bar. However when the bar reaches about 1/3 of the way across, my phone will suddenly restart and boot up into the OS like normal, and when I check the software version I still have zv5. Then a few days later, the notification pops up again and I repeat the process (with the same results).
My phone was rooted the first two times I tried this (I kept stock android, 4.4.2), and I thought that might be causing the problem so I unrooted it. But that didn't change anything, and now I'm not sure what to do. I tried to find answers online, but all I found was another person on Reddit with the same problem (I can't post outside links since I'm a new user, but you can google "LG Volt won't update from v5.7 to v6.1?" and you'll find it). Any suggestions on what I can do?

I own a BLU Pure XL, installed the custom CM12 rom to try out and I forgot to backup. I noticed someone uploaded the Stock Rom for 5.1 but for some reason It won't let me download anything from the play store showing it as paused all the time. I have cleared data for all the download apps,play store, and play store services within the apps section and installed a GAPP zip get the same result. The same error occurs with the OTA update saying cannot connect even with access to the internet and the ability to search the app store.
So if anyone has a stock 6.01 version and could upload it I would greatly appropriate it
I have the same problem. Unable to download anything from the play store. Still searching for a solution. Please let me know if you resolve this issue and I will do the same
I'm going through it ,too, thought about flashing Gionee ROM
Bought New Phone
I am not to much of a fan of the phone anyways so bought a BB Priv. If anyone finds a solution please post so I can have a backup phone
OK, I had to utilize the Gionee scatter file and stock ROM in order to get the phone partitioned correctly,
I then took the BLU Scatter file and Stock ROM , boot, and recovery and flashed it afterward. Then did a factory reset. Took updates then rooted, again. You are left with the Gionee splash screen... But that's an easy fix.
Appears that the versions of TWRP posted DO NOT partition the phone correctly and writes a TWRP partition that screws everything up.
I will post links or you can find them yourself in the meantime. They are all on xda mainly on the thread about rooting... Odd thing is. Phone seems to run better than before... I would have left the Gionee ROM up and running if it wasn't 4G only... I'll post links later.
Its been well documented to use the TWRP 2.8 not the 3,0 as it has issues partitioning. there is a whole thread about unbricking where we went into EXTENSIVE depth on this
