"Unfortunately net.aetherpal.device has stopped"
Whenever I receive a text message I get a message that says "Unfortunately net.aetherpal.device has stopped" any idea how to fix this?

just to clarify you just flashed the .zip files via TWRP and it worked? I have tried but it just keeps rebooting into recovery

PMA Charging
Hi was hoping that this fixed the wireless charging for me. The aosp lollipop roms work with it still but not the stock ones. Go figure. Any idea what the issue is?

So far so good , but I'm still have a problem with Good for Enterprise (gfe).
The program closes, without a crash warning or typical force close.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

done on my at&t d850 4.4.210c bumped and rooted. It's all OK ! Thank you !

Battery & performance
For those wondering what to expect in terms of battery and performance. Awesome Running so far! Had to disable lgsmartcover and weather. But got xposed running and all my favorites.

Anyone else getting random reboots?

Is the flashable zip uploaded anywhere else? My downloads have been stopping half way through or cannot open zip for the past 4hrs.

I have no reboots at all. Only downside is that email program Good does not seem to work.
I finally got gfe (Good for enterprise to work) but I had to unroot.

Dirty flashed from 10d and working great. I'm tempted to install Xposed, but only use a few options and don't want anything not working. So I'm wondering if anybody has non-xposed file edit solutions (without the need for extra apps)...
1) change battery icon / circle battery
2) hold back to kill app
3) enable call recording
4) add screenshot, flashlight, 4-way reboot from power menu

Re: Stock LG D850 20F Lollipop 5.0.1
I wish to thank you for your help.
I bought my D850 G3 off of Swappa, & it arrived already updated to Lollipop. But not rooted.
I was going to try PurpleDrake, but found out it didn't work with Lollipop, so I searched around & found How to root LG G Flex 2, G2, G3 on Lollipop! by Max Lee on HighonAndroid.com. This was the first time I've had to use command line rooting, previously I've used Chainfire's Autoroot (who I haven't thanked enough) with Odin for Samsung phones. But this method didn't put a custom recovery, like TWRP, on my phone. So, I tried TWRP's app from Play store. Then Rashr, & Flashify, from Play store. They all claimed to flash TWRP, but didn't work. I didn't understand until I started Googling flashing TWRP on the D850 with Lollipop, & ran across your post. It worked the first time. I'm running a TWRP nandroid backup right now. I got kicked out of adb shell at least 3 or 4 times, I don't know if it was my phone or windows 7. I just went back into adb shell/ su, & pasted the next command directly from your post, thanx for the exact commands necessary. When I was finished, & kicked out of adb shell again, I left the phone alone for a few minutes before unplugging the usb cable, & rebooting a couple of times. When that worked ok, I booted into TWRP, & started my backup.
Thanx again,
Dave

I had been having relentless issues with the powermat disconnecting until I tried booting into safe mode (Hold down Power Off until it pops up as an option). I put it on the mat while it was booting up and it kept the connection even after the phone loaded up. I then turned the phone completely off and placed it back on the mat. It started up and has been working just as it did pre-Lollipop update. Since it is working on AOSP roms and not on Stock by default, maybe there is some driver or other issue that gets resolved after booting into safe mode. I did this 3 days ago and it has been working fine thus far.
Hope it helps.

[Q] Network and storage issues + Google services crashing

So I woke up today and after about an hour I wanted to open the Play store when it immediatly crashed after opening it. After trying to reboot the phone trouble started.
- My Nexus got stuck in a boot loop (I should probably tell I was running the Google L beta (the one which was out for a while not the newly released 5.0 preview), let it run for over 30 minutes and still nothing, even after a few tries.
- Decided to flash the stock 4.4.4 image from the Google developer website and I got it to work again.
- After I reconfigured all the settings I noticed I didn't have any network: no calls, no text messaging, no LTE, 3G, etc. Also Google play services and other apps weren't working and immediately crashed (camera and gallery).
- I decided to reflash the radio image but without succes.
- After reflashing the stock image a few times I decided to try different versions, so I tried 4.4.3. Still no network.
- Then I tried to flash the newly release 5.0 preview, but that too got stuck in a bootloop (even after going to recovery mode and cleaning the cache, wiping all data).
- So after doing this for a few hours without any luck I thought maybe a custom ROM like Cyanogenmod might work. Things got worse. I noticed when trying to paste the CM image on my device (via windows/usb cable) I was unable to acces my folders. (see images)
- Trying to use the CM installer (from get.cm) resulted into trying to download the installer (APK file) and getting the error 'No SD'. Just that. This also happens when I try to install any other APK. So basically not being able to acces the play store or being able to download single APK's from Google leaves me with all standard apps... Which isn't alot.
- USB drivers are OK (can post pictures if needed). Reinstalled them anyway.
I tried 4.4.0, 4.4.3 and 4.4.4 using fastboot without any succes.
So yeah i'm pretty stuck, any help is really appreciated. I tried so many different topics on these forums and others its just getting worse with each method I try to fix the issues.

I did that, this is where the network issues and Google play crashes started.
I would ask in the L developer release Q&A thread. I believe it can cause similar issues, but I don't know them myself. Those guys in that thread may tho.
You probably need to format your partitions fully before flashing or something along that lines.

It's an IMEI issue that's unrelated to Android Lollipop as far as I know.

Looking for a few clarifications
lan_baba said:
This is exactly what I'm looking for. But as a newbie here, a few questions before I "brick" it:
Currently I'm on 4.2.2, do I need to upgrade to KitKat before flash?
Do I need to have the phone rooted first?
Do I need to install the recovery first? TWRP or Clockmod?
Do I need to have the phone unlocked first?
Sorry, too many questions.

Found the thread with the stock T-mobile 4.4.2 ROM. I'm on AT&T D800 at 4.2.2. The first question was relevant but I didn't see any answer. I'm already rooted, installed TWRP, and have the sim unlocked.
Just looking to transform my d800 into a true T-mobile phone. I'd like the option for WiFi calling. Not sure if any radio basebands or kernels need to be upgraded first tho.
Thanks for the patience!
ok, what gives?
I downloaded both of the files that you provided links to. They are both *.zip.apk files. I wiped all the partitions that you required, I wen to install (using TWRP) and the *.zip.apk files cannot be seen. I renamed them both to *.zip files (the ROM having a space in it that failed at first). Now, when I try to install (aka Flash) the ROM, I get a failure.
What am I missing here?
EDIT:
I apologize for the shortness exhibited here. When I downloaded earlier, it was over the web browser on the phone, Chrome I believe. It appears that something happened while downloading and it appended *apk to the end. Luckily, I had make a backup, I restored that backup and re-downloaded over my laptop. The downloads were *zip files (no *.zip.apk) and I managed to copy them over to the Internal Storage just fine. I've rebooted to TWRP, done the FULL wipe and Factory Reset (just to be safe) and now am flashing the ROM.
Goes to show how important making the backup first really is!
I'll post back with results after a few days of testing. Thank you!
Do you think this will work on a phone on Metro PCS/T-mobile network?
I have the AT&T LG G2 running with a metro pcs SIM card. APN settings are exactly the same as T-Mobile because its on the t-mobile network. Do you think think this would work for me?
Tmobile Rom for at & t G2 Download
Is there anyway i can get this rom without downloading from 4shared? It seems my computer doesn't like that site. If anyone has the rom and can email it to me i would very much appreciate it., or if there is another site that is working just let me know and ill give it a try.
Should I avoid installing the OTA update from T-mobile?
I installed the T-Mobile ROM on my AT&T G2 last week. This week I've got a notification about a system update from T-Mobile. Can I install it or might it be incompatible with my phone.
Thanks.
I also have the T-Mo rom On my D800 & received the OTA update. Will it brick my phone if i install?

Anyone having a GPS issue?
I have been using this solution to use T-mobile WiFi Calling option with my LG D800 for about 2 months now.
Everything works fine except occasional random reboots which I can tolerate, but I am having a trouble with GPS.
When I use Google Maps, it takes at least 5 mins to lock up the GPS signal if ever.
Does anyone have the same issue or know how to improve this?
I tried GPS app in Play Store to update aGPS, but it didn't help much.
When I reboot, it helps a bit to make the GPS work better.
I am wondering if this is because of some incompatibility of the ROM and the phone, or it is just the phone.
Also, as the previous posting asked, I also wonder if it is OK to use the most up-to-date T-mobile ROM.
I would like to see if it helps resolving my GPS issue. (IF I can install it using the same method shown here)
I installed the update and it seems fine. I texted and made a call.

I just followed the directions of the update. It installed and rebooted. It booted to TWPR, which momentarily concerned me, but I just selected reboot from the TWRP menu and the phone booted like normal. I haven't noticed any problems yet.

how to get OTA for wifi texting?
I would like to know what was done to install the update as well. I'm running TWRP and I found the image file downloaded to the /cache partition (most OTA's do that). When I boot into TWRP and try to install it, the installation/flash fails due to the fact that it doesn't recognize the phone as a lg g2. I assumed that this ROM didn't update a portion of some file that this OTA checks for before installing.
You are the first one that I know of that has been able to successfully install.
EDIT: Looking back at what the following two have done, accepting and installing and then rebooting to TWRP followed by an additional reboot at the TWRP prompt, I do not believe that has successfully installed the software. If you go to your software version does it end in 'e' or 'g'? If the new software is installed, it will end in 'g' as that version is 2 minor revs higher than what was modded for our AT&T LG G2 D800 series by the OP to this thread.
Can't post to Discussion, anyone get the OTA to install on their D800?
You can see in my last post, when I go to install the OTA from t-mobile, the checker doesn't think it's a LG G2 phone, so it fails to install.
custom dll for goingback to d800 stock
please provide custom dll file for going back to stock D800 rom, as when I use lg flash tool to go to stock d800 rom it identifies my phone as d801 and does not allow me to flash the stock rom.
why have a Q&A section if it isn't going to be monitored?
Just wondering how Questions are supposed to get answered if no one monitors this part of the forum?
[ROM] T-Mobile 4.4.2 Stock D80120e (Wi-Fi Calling)
I am trying to install a t mobile rom on my att LG G2 so I can enjoy some of the T mobile features. I found your thread on google and try to follow your instruction to complete the process. I am an inexperience user when it comes to smart phones, so my attempt was unsuccessful. I did factory reset the phone which supposedly did a full wipe. Then I opened a browser to download the stock t mobile rom to my phone, but couldn't download it. I am not sure what to do. Can you help?
MAKE A BACKUP FIRST!!!
1. Full wipe (Wipe cache, data, system, dalvik cache)
2. Flash Stock T-Mobile ROM
3. Flash KitKat BaseBand
4. Reboot
5. Enjoy.
Love this ROM, LTE Stays On, WIFI Calling uses Minutes
I agree it would be nice to see the newly released stock 5.0 for the T-Mobile G2 also. This ROM has worked well for me. Been using the T-Mobile 5GB 100 minute $30 plan. When on the original AT&T Rom, after a month on the plan, the data rolled back from LTE to 4G. On this ROM LTE is turned all the time! The WIFI calling works great, however, minutes from the plan are used, so I turned off wifi calling.
Thank You Novembre5 for this Great ROM !
I realize this is not the place for this but is there a similar rom for the G3

Xposed has a couple of bad side effects at this point, so before doing anything you need to use Titanium or something similar to Freeze (this basically what the "helper" does):
LGSmartCover
Weather
Weather Theme
WeatherPlatform
Then you can install xposed as in the thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811
However, there is still one more bug to keep in mind: Xposed will crash the Tethering and Networks menu. There is no fix for that yet, but as a workaround you can download some apps from the play store (like Mobile Network Settings), to shortcut around the menu that force closes.

Great, thanks! Shortly after posting this, I actually tracked down the zip from the standard LG G3 forum and flashed that, which seems (so far) to have worked.
Do you, or anybody for that matter, know by chance any confirmed working xposed modules that work on the stock rom? I tried a couple lollipop-approved modules and so far nothing has worked. It's been a while since I've used xposed, but back when I did I think I only installed gravitybox.
I attached the .zip in case anybody else needs it. Just flash that after flashing the xposed .zip and then install the xposed installer apk

So does this ROM do the "I'M FULLY CHARGED" battery notification thing?
Re: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-lg-g3/help/qa-d850-20f-stock-rom-debloated-t3069026/post60062058
So does this ROM do the "I'M FULLY CHARGED" battery notification thing? I switched to AOSP just to get away from that, but I prefer stock for the camera.
For those who don't know what I'm talking about, the original stock ROM turns on the screen and fires a notification when the battery is fully charged, so if you have your phone plugged in next to your bed, it'll turn on the screen and buzz every time it drops to 99% and then charges back to 100%, which means every couple minutes, all through the night. No notification setting fixes this, only putting the phone on silent works, and that solution doesn't work for me, nor do I want to mess around with Tasker. I also don't want to unplug my phone when it's charged and start the day with less than a full charge.
Thanks!
Just wanted to say thanks! I have been waiting for a cleaned version of stock Lollipop for the AT&T LG G3 for what feels like months now! I flashed this and the modem file after doing a backup and cleaning everything up first. So far it is working great!
Appreciate it!
So over night I have developed a problem, it's seemed to have added a +1 on front of my numbers, so I get texts from friends but when I reply it says invalid number, is there a setting for this?
Also can we use some super duper Kernels on this rom? Or because it's stock we can't change Kernel's?...

Unable to download any file
Hi,
I just bought this used LG G3 phone which has this image installed. It was an ATT phone but I am using it on T-mobile. Most of the things working except this one.
I am unable to download any file (pdf etc..) from any browser. Seems like download folder is locked somehow and I am unable to delete any files from there. I tried changing permission for download folder but that too failed. Screenshots are also not getting saved. Camera picture seems to be getting saved.
Please advice how to fix this issue.

Not sure but sounds like it may be an sdcard permissions issue. Take a look at the OP here and see if the fix suggested for sdcard permissions works.
Just to Clarify
I have the LG G3 D850 the ATT Model
So in order to install the new ROM:
1. I put the ROM.zip (1.1GB) and the Modem.zip on the SD Card
2. Also the Super SU on the SD Card
3. Boot the Phone on TWRP
4. Chosse install the three archives: ROM, Modem and SuperSU
5. After the reboot, clean the cache
Excuse me for ask, but I,m not a expertise in the matter.
Also I have more questions:
1. I already instal the lollipop from cyanogen but the phone doesnt work well. ¿There is a problem with that?
2. I must first back up the contacts, ¿Right?
3. I just need the 1.1GB ROM, ¿Right?
Thank you for response this questions.
Flashed all 3 files with a clean install. Only problem I've come across is my phone will no longer vibrate from a text or when I use my keyboard. AT&T LG G3 D850

no calls or data
I have an xt1031 flashed to page plus. I have bootloader 41.19 from a failed lollipop update attempt. I flashed the 4/8 build and I can't make calls and do not have 3g. The network shows as 31000. What should I do?
I have been trying each of his builds and anything newer than 4/8 data hasnt worked I'm on boost if that makes any difference
Verizon?
Good morning,
I'm on an XT1028 still with service through Verizon Prepaid; my bootloader is unlocked and I'm on an optimized KK stock ROM at the moment. I've been following the development of Meticulus' CM12.1 through the primary thread and there has been a lot of discussion as to problem solving and issues on the XT1031 and various carriers but little mention as to the status of the latest weekly builds on the XT1028 still on Verizon in terms of functionality or hiccups from users. Does anyone have the latest versions running on their 1028? Are any of the data or service issues present when running it on Verizon?
Thanks.
Followup: Installed the latest 4/25 weekly on my XT1028 on Verizon Prepaid. Installed fine, got phone and SMS, but the network is identified as Boost Mobile and I have no mobile data. Is there a fix? Is a build.prop edit necessary for Verizon? Thanks.
Reboot then bootloop
Hi, I've been trying to get my installation of this ROM working for two days now, but keep running into an issue that I cannot seem to solve
My device is a 2013 Moto G XT1031 (Boost Mobile) with Bootloader version 41.05 and the latest CWM recovery.
The issue has been occurring on build 4/8, 4/25, and 5/2.
The exact steps I have been taking to install this ROM (for all builds) and then what happens:
Bootloader is unlocked
Going into recovery and wiping dalvik cache then factory reset (wipe)
Installing CM11 (latest snapshot) [on my first attempts only, not afterwards since it made no difference anymore]
Factory reset again (just to be certain)
Installing the zip for a build specified above
Installation always succeeds with no errors
Installing gapps-L-3-28-15 with success
Reboot into android
First boot always succeeds (and takes appropriate length of time)
Set up the phone (connect to wifi, google account, restore my apps [18 of them, just common popular ones, mostly Google actually], and apply a theme
Use it for a couple minutes (enable root and usb debug in Developer Settings, set my apps up, etc)
Restart two or three times without any hiccups
Suddenly, after a random reboot, the boot animation happens twice (instead of only once how it supposed to be)
Phone boots and shows "Android is starting..." and optimizes the apps (104 of them) one by one
Goes to "Starting apps..." and succeeds
The phone shows the lockscreen, but only for approximately 1-2 seconds
Phone reboots
CM boot animation runs twice, once for a long time then again for a shorter period of time
Phone goes through process described above (Android is starting, optimizes, then flashes lockscreen)
This just happens again and again and again
Steps I've taken to try and remedy the issue:
Run: "adb reboot" from computer while phone is optimizing apps
Hard reset the phone by holding the power button for 15 seconds
Run: "adb reboot bootloader" from computer when possible, then go into recovery and wipe both dalvik and normal cache
Swipe on the lockscreen as soon as I see it to see if I can get in (lockscreen does not respond though)
Go into recovery and shut the phone off, then start again
Let it loop for about 2 hours
I had also tried leaving the phone overnight looping, and when I woke, it was still looping, but after a eight or so more hours, I came back and found that it had booted and stayed on (and was working completely normally).
The phone was running stock 4.4.2 completely fine before this (with no reboot issues). I attempted installing the latest version of BlissPop, which exhibits a similar but still different issue (it would always boot into android [and not loop], but after a couple restarts, it showed an error about the System UI crashing that would pop up every time I dismissed it, and continued doing so after each restart after that). CM11 seems to be running well on the phone (but only in my very limited test while transitioning between ROMs and such).
I unfortunately cannot provide a log due to not being able to run any logging app during bootup, but hopefully I have provided enough details above to allow understanding of the issue and maybe bring suggestions on how to fix it. I can provide any more information needed on request. I really would like to get this phone back up and running (and especially on this ROM as I do love the work the creator has put into it).
Sorry for the very large wall of text :| Thank you in advance for any suggestions on how to proceed from here

Having not experienced your issue I can't say for certain, but it may be possible you need to update the bootloader to at least 41.13, which is the 4.4.4 KitKat BL? I'd run it past @Meticulus and see if he might have some direction, there. Also, does the theme you apply have a different bootanimation, by any chance? There is a known issue/potential memory leak related to large boot animations on Lollipop that can cause failures at boot or bootloops.

Thank you for the advice I have downloaded a file with the name of falcon_boost_user_4.4.4_KXB21.14-L1.57_57_release-keys-cid9.xml.zip, unzipped it, then flashed according to the directions posted on how to restore the stock firmware. Everything during installation seemed to go smoothly, but at this point, I am stuck again. When I try to boot up, it just shows the splash screen ("Warning Bootloader Unlocked") and stays there indefinitely :| I have hard reset the phone and got into boootloader, which states that I am now on 41.13, but it just stays at that splash screen Should I boot into TWRP and try flashing an update.zip of the stock 4.4.4 Boost ROM? What else can I try?
EDIT: Flashing the stock update did not work, but I was able to install CM11 (so I'm am on bootloader 41.13 with CM11 currently)
EDIT TWO: Yes! I'm on bootloader 41.19 now and official CM12.1 nightly is booting!!
EDIT THREE: NOOOO It just started bootlooping again! CM animation twice, "Android is starting...", lockscreen, then cycle again. It happened after I changed my DPI from 320 to 280 (never restarted, just looped from then on).
I now have a logcat! I'm having trouble understanding what it is talking about, but I started logging as soon as the "Android is starting..." box changed status from "Optimizing apps x of x" to "Starting apps" and then stopped logging after a couple seconds of the boot animation. It is attached below (split into three parts).
EDIT: Attached what might be a better logcat reading (recording started right before lockscreen showed, I tried unlocking it, then stopped as soon as I saw the blue animation)

Whoa, that's a lot of jumps! Be careful with the bootloader, as once you're on the Lollipop BL (and it appears you've already made that jump), you're kind of locked into LP ROMs from this point out. The point you were failing on the 4.4.4 stock would probably have been a good time to go in and manually restore things via fastboot just to make sure all your partitions were straight. What did you use to update your bootloader to 41.19? And have you tried a ROM specifically designated for the CDMA-only XT1031/Boost? I've only used the Meticulus and the unofficial Linaro CM12.1 buld by Cody on my XT1028 specifically because I know they're CDMA compatible, so I'm not sure where the official CM12.1 sits on that right now.
I know there exists an actual legitimate stock 5.0.2 Boost ROM and it's possible that may be able to be restored manually as a last resort, so don't move too hastily.
XPOSED on Meticulous Rom?
Is there any way to get XPOSED working? I really want gravity box for LL.
Awesome. I was going to download this from your site today but it is showing an error with connecting to its database. None of the computers i have access to can get on your site.
no wifi no cellular network
and after i flashed cynogenmod 12.0 in my moto g 2014, there is no wifi nor network :'( what am i suppose to do now?
Ui crash
Is there anything special i need to do to flash this update? i'm running on the 408 build and every time i try ti go the next version there is an issue. Either data stops working or i get a system Ui crash like on the 530 build. I would love to get this issue fixed with the 606 build. Besides that, great job.

Yeah that is a lot of jumps I'd be hella nervous myself lol
K well guys today is your day , as a_gert stated there is a boost 5.02 , and it does work fine on any cdma xt1031 so first flash that
-depending on signal you may wish to update your modem also there is only 4.4 modem for boost public
Buuuutttt nvm all that for now
The problem the ONLY problem I have had when bootlooping was that it was not prepped correctly and my phone came with 41.19 and came unlocked-
1.) Make sure you are on c/O SuperR-Developer -- PhilZ-Touch-6.59.0_LPK .img OR twrp * twrp-2.8.6.0.1-falcon_STOCK.img
**Notice For Even PhilZ I only Named the -IMG- Version which means flash it with adb properly please
***if ever after you flash it via recovery it will show partition mismatch which apparently is no problem just that the custom recovery does not match the factory one is all.. ..
1.) Download PhilZ-Touch-6.59.0-LPK.img to PC
2.) Reboot to bootloader
3.) Plug phone into PC
4.) Open terminal in directory where the img is located
5.) Issue the following command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.6.0.1-falcon_STOCK.img
2.) Do a format of System w/EXT4 AND REBOOT INTO RECOVERY
3.) Format dalvik/art + Cache + Data w/EXT4 & REBOOT INTO RECOVERY
4.) Format Data PLUS data/media with f2fs then Do the 'factory wipe' then manually format data/media with f2fs again please ..
- SIDELOAD THE ATTACHED STOCK LOLLIPOP NO GAPPS GIVE IT TEN MINUTES REBOOT FEW TIMES/ POWER DOWN ONCE & REBOOT AGAIN
5.) Reboot into recovery and flash the first zip I have attached (I_nomodem is just IF you find your 4.4 radio baseband worked better and want to format it for LP again in the future WITHOUT LP radio included)
****EDIT - SEE VERY BOTTOM OF POST CENTERED AREA LOL
6.) Power off & reboot into recovery manually
7.) Flash your Rom (OR STOCK LOLLIPOP DEBLOATED AGAIN) + Kernel(if any custom one) + Gapps -wait 5-15 minutes for initial boot
* I recommend AeroKernel for the included stock lollipop 5.0 debloated if not the stock kernel or after flashing and few reboots to settle ,just follow instructions from that thread if any are needed..
Please anyone with any moto g don't think updating your bootloader is needed or even really safe whatsoever it is THE main reason moto phones get bricked or messed up otherwise it is not necessary or any kind of improvement yes once you are on an LP one leave it be..
Other flashing yeah okay, bootloader no if so proceed with utmost caution.
After this your modem will be updated with the cdma LolliPop one, if you have any signal issues or what not go to the stock modems section for your specific phone and flash the one for your specific carrier and/or find the "update RIL" flash thingie on here in moto G section and follow instructions but the boost modems work on all cdma variants of Moto G..
For whatever reason I could not upload files to xda I tried five times it kept dying so here there are on googldrive :good:
**Do not Click individual Item Use the Download Arrow At the Very Top of Page to DL the zip properly plz
1.) Falcon LolliPop Part Updater + Modem
2.) Falcon LolliPops Part Updater (No Modem)​
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
--EDIT #2-- LolliPop 5.0 Falcon XT1031 debloated
SIDENOTE: IF YOU FORMAT DATA/MEDIA & DO NOT KNOW HOW TO SIDELOAD THE ABOVE STOCK DEBLOATED ZIP I'M PRETTY SURE YOU'RE NOT GONNA LIVE TO TELL BOUT IT
BE PREPARED TO SIDELOAD - REBOOT IMMEDIATELY AFTER SIDELOAD THE ZIP ROM IS COMPLETE NOT INTO RECOVERY NOT ANYWHERE ELSE SYSTEM REBOOT
-And wait 5-10 Minutes For First Boot - You Only Need to Do this for the first LP rom loadin after that normal flashing do NOT format data/media anymore after this initial setup
--You can try to just use the script, but it did not work for me after many tries the above was the real solution and has been perfect since
2,3,4,5,6,7
·Install flashable (Boost Mobile/CDMA XT1031 only):
·Download falcon_PhilZ-Touch-6.59.0_LPK.zip to phone
·Reboot into current custom recovery
·Flash zip
·Enjoy!
Use the script again to prepare you partition properly anytime you are about to flash a new rom clean after factory wipe/ format is done..
As I said before data/media is never necessary again after this and MAY not be this time but it is the only thing that kept me out of bootloops ,and if you do it yeah it will force you to sideload your rom it erases all leftovers and your rom zips off the internal card and formats them for fresh start The script does not format /media guys k no worries
------TWRP 2.8.6..1 does not seem to restore properly- -system write only thing .. PhilZ-Touch is fine as is twrp-2.8.6..0 also
Nice, got 41.19 BL!
I tested this and works fine, now i have my shiny new moto g running AICP. Thanks @shoobiedoobiiwhompwop!

Is it safe to flash cyanogenmod onto the verizon moto G - 1028 4.3 plus
Hello community ,
I had serious problems flashing cyanogenmod onto a galaxy S3 that was running stock 4.3 , verizon bricked my S3 , and said that the software was not authorized by Verizon. Does this problem exist across the board for any verizon phone running 4.3 or higher ?? If so ... then anything to do with flashing cyanogenmod onto a verizon phone should have warnings in BIG RED LETTERS ... because you cannot even buy a new phone with 4.2 on it anymore.
Issues flashing cm12.1 on XT1031 Please Help
Tried flashing the second to last release on 2 of my moto g xt1031's and I keep getting diff issues. This is what I did:
I had complete stock 4.4.4
unlocked bootloaders,
flashed latest TWRP,
Did a factory wipe
Flashed CM12.1
Flashed Gapps
Rebooted
Stuck in boot loop--> waited over 30mins and rebooted a few times. No luck.
I heard to try flashing CM11 first, then flashing 12.1 so I did this:
Back to TWRP -->factory wipe
Flash cm11
reboot to cm11
reboot to TWRP -->factory wipe
Flash CM12.1
Now I can get past the boot logo and begin setup, however, it will randomly reboot to the boot logo and then back to setup after a minute or so- erasing anything I've already input. Sometimes I could make it through the setup to the desktop, but then it would do the same thing. Had this same exact issue on both of my xt1031s with the same process used for both.
After this I tried doing a factory wipe and then also wiping /data and /system in the advanced wipe options and then flashing cm12.1 and still had the same issue of the rebooting. At some point I must have done somthing, but I started trying to just flash cm12.1 several times over to see if it would stick and I noticed when I did the factory wipe I was getting a parsing error so I tried doing a full data format, and fix data filesystem. I'm not sure what format it was supposed to be so I did a ex4. THat stopped the parsing error, but still having the same issues.. any help would be appreciated.

Hello Citizen 3 , You are farther along than me. I have only successfully flashed cyanogenmod once , and that was on an S3 so it was straightforward. I still have not unlocked my bootloader. I have not been able to copy and paste the long strings of characters from motorola , inside command prompt. It would be so nice if Meticulus or one of the other developers could get this to be an official release. The Moto G , and a few other inexpensive phones ( LG realm , Kyocera Hydro latest version ) would work like greased lightning , if they were running CM12. Any help that you could offer with pasting the strings of unlock code would be so appreciated.

Stock G2 won't boot into recovery/download/fastboot

Ok guys,
I'm gonna post this knowing that there is probably NO SOLUTION to my issue. Let me attempt to explain EXACTLY my issue and what I did. I found a potential solution here > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582142 however my issues don't exactly match the description in that thread.
So, long story short - I've ended up back on the G2 for now (until I upgrade) - I got the G2 on Amazon brand new. When I got it the other day - I discovered when I attempted to boot into download/fastboot or recovery using ADB - the phone would just reboot. The G2 came with KK 4.4.2. I had it rooted but still couldn't get into recovery or download modes. So, for the hell of it - I decided to take the OTA (after reading the G2 can still be rooted on LP). Halfway thru the OTA update (after it reboots into stock recovery) the device reboots. Did it multiple times. So, I went to LG's website and downloaded the LG Mobile Support tool. Plugged the G2 in - it said there was no update available. So, I tried one of the options I found to update the recovery. So, it starts updating.... and then I realized it flashed Lollipop instead of updating the recovery. So, no I'm on stock Lollipop 5.0.2 and I still can't boot into recovery/download/fastboot to flash a stock KitKat image so I can root, ROM, etc.
Anyone heard of this issue or even possibly know how to fix it WITHOUT using a bootable Linux drive or a virtual machine (I have a Windows 8,1 laptop - 8.1 doesn't support Hyper-V out of the box)? If you know anything related to this - please post. I have no clue what else to do except accept the fact that I have a stock G2 that I will NEVER be able to root. I was going to send it back to Amazon and get another one but I don't feel like going thru all that for a phone I'm probably not gonna end up using too much longer.
