Lollipop problem - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sometime today I went to the play store to add a new app. When I tried I kept getting an error of 927. I tried to do wipes and everything. I I went ahead and just flashed my ROM again. No luck I couldn't download anything from the app store. Tried a few different Roms and also back to stock with no luck. Finally just had to go back to kk to get everything working. Anyone else have this problem?

Erase everything in fastboot. Then fastboot flash each image for lollipop individually.

No Recovery Seems to work for me

ive tried twrp and cwm, and both seem to have extremely bad problems on my phone. i haven't seen others have problem with their phones but mine has gone full retard. with twrp, wiping takes a super really long time and most of the time it does not wipe anything even though its says completed. it cant flash any rom either. it just immediately says failed. so i tried cwm thinking it was a twrp thing, but ive ran into the same issues. i flashed a rom thinking it had wiped (it said it had wiped) but id didnt, it just dirty flashed the rom over stock. can someone suggest what can be going wrong? :crying::crying:
Have you tried using the newest twrp?

i have a mac and no access to a pc, so installing it has been manually through adb commands has been a real headache for me. i first installed it through a tool someone made in the forums for mac but i don't think they have updated it ever since the first release. then i tried using goo manager but it appears the servers are still down.ccc

In TWRP you can check -rom option in Settings menu to wipe the partitions instead of formatting them. The process will take less time.
To flash a rom try to boot into the bootloader then select Recovery mode and flash.
If you are rooted you can install TWRP via Flashify app or even with Terminal commands.

Android 4.4.1 On Rooted Stock Nexus 5

So I've downloaded all my apps and mods for my stock rooted Nexus 5(running android 4.4), how could I get and android 4.4.1 without unrooting?

If you're using the stock kernel and haven't changed anything at all in /system, you can just flash the update in recovery. I'm stock rooted with TWRP, and it flashed just fine for me.
Could you give me a link to the update please!?

It's on the first page of general.
Did not work for me. Running stock with twrp. It mentioned something about unexpected info in build/prop file. Is it because I'm running art?

You must have modified your build.prop. Revert it back to stock and it should work.
posted this in another thread but wasn't getting much action, this one seems busier
Just flashed the official 4.4.1 zip file using TWRP onto my phone and rebooted...
Now i'm getting constant errors with every google application.
non-stop popups saying "unfortunately google play store has stopped"
My APN's all deleted themselves as well and now I can't even add any back in, I fill all the information in and I hit save and it doesn't save anything. No service now..
couldn't do a factory reset, button wouldn't respond
anyone else have any problems like this. I've tried wiping my dalvik and cache but that failed. had to wipe data first, then cache worked, then dalvik finally wiped...
I'll set my phone back up and see if it works now, just going through first boot procedures
Mines worked perfectly, no problems and camera loads and captures faster

I actually had the same things you mentioned in my stock n5, I wasn't even rooted (just unlocked) and it suddenly did all the things you said. I did all the same you did haha but I had to reflash factory images and it worked again, but I have no idea of what happened.

I did, but still got the error. But then I pasted in my backup build.prop from ROM toolbox and it worked! Then while in TWRP I reflashed TWRP (TWRPception!). However, when I went to reboot it did not prompt me to root the device. So I'm running 4.4.1 stock kernel with TWRP, but no root. TWRP never prompts to root. Does anyone know of a .zip I can flash to root the N5 via TWRP?

Have a look in the sticky threads, at the top of general. It should be obvious which one

I was able to root using CF auto root :cyclops:
Did you maybe delete data for Google Framework in order to get the OTA quicker?
Dan Morrill (an Android engineer) said that that is REALLY not recommended because it can have all sorts of problems with all google apps. Doing that erases your device fingerprint used for push notifications, device identification etc. The playstore was definitely affected by this as well.

Help, every ROM I've tried just gets stuck in bootloop

Ok, Ive unlocked my bootloader, installed CWM, rooted my device and checked that it worked, and when I go to the boot loader and select recovery it takes me to CWM. Ive made backups from it and and they restore fine. I even installed a custom kernel and it worked because noFrills let me OC/choose a different governor. Yet from the three ROMs Ive tried so far, they install fine, no errors from CWM, but when I boot up it just gets stuck booting forever. Ive tried wiping everything, Ive tried wiping some things, heck I even tried wiping nothing but I still get the same issue. Id really like to try a new ROM now that I went through the trouble of voiding my warranty, so please try to help me. Thanks in advance, alexbenh
Same here
Gonna try out this guy's method real quick except with CWM

I know this seems obvious, but are the ROMs you are flashing specific for your device?

yes, I have the Moto G XT1034 and have flashed ROMs before on my old galaxy exhibit and never had any trouble with that

If you're flashing a kitkat ROM, make sure you're already running KitKat. If you're still on 4.3, then fastboot flash the stock 4.4.2 image first, then try custom roms
Sent from my XT1034 using Tapatalk
WOOOHOOO, I reinstalled the stock 4.4 firmware and everything, I couldnt root it with superboot so I just skipped the rooting step. Then I flashed CWM through the bootloader although I decided to take a risk and instead of "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img", I did "mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img" just to see if it would change anything. Not sure if thats why it works for me now, but its worth a try. Good luck to the rest of you who have this problem.

Yes, I was already running the stock 4.4 ROM the only differences was that I had a custom kernel which could possibly be an issue, but I wouldnt think so

huh, I had not tried using TWRP, but I thought CWM had a fix permissions command as well.

My experience. I tried CWM then loaded a Rom, the first one I tried being CM11 = Bootloop, Then I tried several other Rom's and always the same result, spinning on Bootloop
I then put the phone back to stock firmware 4.4.2 and tried TWRP version TWRP2630, no joy even the bootloader wouldn't work right.
Finally put the phone back to stock AGAIN (now getting frustrated!) and tried installing TWRP2631 using fastboot. That did the trick, now all ROM's load and run fine. This version of TWRP appears to be working well. Backup/restore works, and no problems at all.
Other's report CWM works well, but not for me unfortunately.

WiFi won't turn off, can't re-flash TWRP, HELP!

My One has been acting up lately. It started out that I couldn't turn off WiFi. I would turn it off but it would turn itself back on shortly thereafter. It has nothing to do with WiFi optimization or anything like that...I've fiddled with all those settings. Anyway, I updated to 38R thinking it might fix things, but no such luck. So I fire up titanium backup in preparation for a full wipe and find out that my device is no longer rooted. On top of that, TWRP is gone as well. No big deal, reflash TWRP and re-root. Nope. ADB says that TWRP flashes successfully, but when I boot into recovery I get the standard Cyanogen recovery instead of TWRP. Any thoughts?
Have you tried flashing stock and starting from scratch?
Did you remember to uncheck the option for updating fastboot with system update as well?

Unfortunately I missed the fastboot update bit. Did I **** myself with that?
If you could access CWM do a factory reset, and hopefully that clears up your problems, if not go back to stock via: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-return-opo-to-100-stock-t2826541
the only reason why i could think that it'd say flashing is successful is it's flashing to the wrong partition (which doesn't make any sense), or the bootloaders locked, which it isn't since from your post it says you had TWRP installed, but try going back to stock fully via fastboot, then installing twrp and such.

[Q] "com.sec.android.sviewcover has stopped" - graviton rom

Hello my apologies if this has been asked,
I have an AT&T Samsung Galaxy S4 4.4.4 with NJ4 firmware.
To root I flashed the I337_NC1_Stock_Kernel using Odin's PDA slot, rooted using Towelroot, then flashed back to I337_NJ4_Stock_Kernel using Odin's PDA slot.
I downloaded Graviton rom, GalaxyS4/SGH-i337/roms/Graviton/Graviton_S4_v3.0_20140502_SafeStrap.zip
I used Safestrap to boot into recovery mode and made a back up of the stock rom on my ext_sd.
I did a wipe and then flashed Graviton and now when I boot up it appears that rom loads but I get this message stuck on the screen:
"Unfortunately, com.sec.android.sviewcover has stopped."
I tried rewiping and reloading the rom and still get the same problem. I tried restoring using my backup however, when I go to restore I can't see my back up on my sd. However, I checked with my computer and it is there.
What is my best course of action?
Try wiping the data and cache of the mentioned process in the settings. If this doesn't solve then it could be a rom bug

thanks, it still did not work . I will assume it is a rom bug. I did manage to get my restore to work.
I noticed that my stock was 4.4.4 and graviton is based on 4.4.2. Does this matter?
Just to update. My apologies I don't know how I missed this but I needed to install the nj4 module as well as supersu.zip from safestrap right after installing the rom.
To any other newbies having same problem read this entire thread carefully.
