Hey all,
I've been running Pac-ROM 4.4.4 for quite a while with hardly any issues, but I recently noticed some touch errors such as the home button and task button activate simultaneously when I only press one button. It sometimes takes a few taps before only the home button is registered. Also on the right side of the screen I can't pull down the notifications bar; that only works in the middle-left of the screen. Because of this, I decided to upgrade my ROM to the newest beta version of Pac-ROM lollipop.
Now my issue: the new ROM had issues with google store and services. Instantly upon booting up, youtube kept spamming my screen saying it couldn't run. I also had notifications for google play store, so I uninstalled both youtube and the play store (after clearing cache for a simpler fix). That got rid of the pop-ups, but I still couldn't access my google account. I browsed some threads and they suggested to remove my google account and clear cache for google services. This didn't fix the problem so I decided to flash back to the stable 4.4.4 and reinstall the apps I removed.
Here is where I foolishly realized I never updated my gapps to 5.x.x. Being too late, I thought I'd just flash the gapps and lollipop rom after getting things back to normal in 4.4.4. Unfortunately, I was never able to boot after flashing 4.4.4.
Now I am stuck in a boot loop, do not have debugging enabled thanks to the update (so I can't use adb), my recovery won't boot using power + vol down, and my computer doesn't even recognize my phone when using LG mobile support tool.
Other things that may help:
LG G2 ls980zve
TWRP 2.8.x.x
cannot access adb or fastboot
cannot access recovery
cannot turn on phone
updated lg drivers as of today, but computer doesn't recognize my device in device manager
followed these threads but couldn't resolve the issue:

Ask if I forgot to mention anything crucial.
Good luck figuring this out

Here's a guide that can help you.
i am sure that there's guides here on xda too.
That guide was essentially the same as the two links I referred to except one thing... It reminded me to reboot the computer after installing drivers! HAHA. Now it worked smoothly.
Such a simple fix, thanks!

I have the shield tablet LTE version and after connecting to WIFI it immediately installed all OTAs upto the hotfix also. So here I am sitting with lollipop in my tablet and I decide to go for rooting and CWM installation.. After rooting using adb/fastboot and installing CWM image, I decide to disable ATTall access because I read that it stops the portable hotspot from working. So, did that and then process after process started crashing. First it started with background data not being enabled (playstore wouldn't open) , NVidia hub crashing, google text to speech crashing, etc.
So, I went to cwm and did factory reset. At the initial stages itself where it asks for language setup, the google text to speexh crashes and I cannot click next or proceed forward.
I flash the Lollipop OTA once again thinking it would overwrite the system but it didn't.. and the same issue keeps happening..
Now what do I do?
Regards
Alden
An update to the mess i was in...
I tried recovery mode at the fastloader boot menu and I got the robot lying down with a red exclamation mark sign. I pressed vol + key and it opened the original recovery I think. I wiped user data from this menu and rebooted. and now it has come to the original screen setup and so far no process crashes...
What could have caused this entire mess?
I am not sure what would cause your issues but i believe your best bet is to download the full rom image for your tablet and flash it via fastboot. That should get you back up and running. (Be warned doing this will erase everything on your tablet!! SD card will be untouched)
By fullmrom u mean the one from the nvidia developer website right?
Yes that is the one! I am currently at work so I cant post a link to it but if you need it ill try to post it once im off, in about 30-ish minutes. Good luck! (p.s. last resort is RMA)
Is your shield up and running once again? Just wanted to get an update. =]
Thanks javydawg, I didnt use the one on nvidias developer website as i simply did not have enough data left in my Internet plan .. its 2.3 gb in size... after recoVery i was left with lollipop so i flashed a 750 mb file tht i gt from these forums and updated it to the latest version.. i still haven't pinpointed the reason for my earlier trouble but will shout out if it happens again... have to be careful cos not sure if RMA is possible for me in India...
Hello there guys!
I'm having a really hard time here and i hope you can help me
I have the LG Spirit 4G h440n10d. I had the phone rooted with kingroot and everything was fine.
After an application install that was taking a lot of memory (hearthstone), my phone started lagging before i delete it. After the app's removal, my home and open apps buttons didn't work and neither did the volume buttons. Only the "Back" button worked.
So i tried to reset factory settings from the menu. After the phone reset, i had the LG welcome page in which you insert phone name, wifi, google account, locking methods etc. so i thought everything was fine. But this happened with every restart of the phone. It seemed like the settings weren't saved and my home and apps buttons didn't work again after the factory reset.
After this, i deleted some android files (i regret it a lot) from kingroot application and... voila!
...
After phone reset i can't do nothing and it stays in LG welcome page (i get a small message that "settings" has stopped working) and phone closes by it self.
I tried to flash my phones .kdz version i found with LG flash tools 2014 but my phone stays in "update firmware" page and the program's bar doesn't move (even if i ignore the server communication error).
I saw that my phone has locked bootloader and doesn't have a recovery mode. What can i do now? How can i install a clean firmware to it? I'm willing to answer any of your questions and also i would much appreciate any help given.
Thanks in advance!

i just fixed it today
I'm having a similar issue with my g flex 2. I did a factory reset and now it does a loop on the setup wizard. I cannot get to the recovery screen by pushing the power button and volume down and I can't get it to connect with my computer with usb. Is there another way to do a hard reset?
If you stuck on Google Account , you can try this:
When you enter your email address, select all and hold your finger to showing option. "Cut, Copy, Past, Assist"
Use Assist, choose >> No thanks . And a browser will be showing.
Enter "Setting" And the settings icon will show up.
Go to Settings then Apps.
Disable every single Google app (Chrome, Slides, Sheets, Gmail, maps, Youtube, Hangouts etc. etc anything that is Google in origin.)
Disable all Google Play everything including Play Services and Store
Disable Google Account Manager and Google App
Disable Google services like calendar and contacts sync, text to speech I think, services framework, one time init, and partner setup
Also went to Security, Administrators, and removed Device Manager
---pretty sure I covered it...
back out of menu, reboot phone.
You should be able uncheck Wi-Fi and Mobile networks and still be able to hit Next at the bottom right, FRP check is disabled. Once it boots all the way into the interface, go to Settings, Backup and Reset and do a factory reset.

That was unsuccessful. Any other suggestions?
I put in my google account info and it worked fine, but it just keeps looping through the setup instead of finishing it. At the end, if I time it right, I can swipe down and get into settings so I thought I could reset it that way, but the reset option isn't even there.
Try to Reflash the phone with LGUP using "Refurbished" mode.

Thanks. I figured out how to flash it using these instructions. http://forum.xda-developers.com/g-flex2/general/guide-lg-g-flex-2-stock-firmware-to-t3037593
My phone is working great again. I'm new at this but that seems like doing pretty much the same thing. One question though. Supersu is still showing up in the apps. I rooted my phone a long time ago but I figured that would have been deleted through this process.
Same isseue

Good luck.
I have a Sprint Samsung Galaxy SPH-P500 Android ver. 4.1.2 Build JZO54K.P500VPBMB3 Kernel 3.0.31-929664.
It was never activated. I tried to have Ting and Sprint activate but both were unable to. One day it started downloading an upgrade. Since then every time I connect to Wifi it downloads and installs dozens of apps. I have uninstalled them and have done a factory reset 3 times. I have installed Malwarebytes but it doesn't find any malware. Nothing I do seems to stop the downloads. So many apps are downloaded it makes it hard to use the tablet and it slows it down. This tablet was rooted before trying to activate and I thought that may be the reason we couldn't so I unrooted it. I have tried to root it again but it won't root. I have tried to boot into safe mode but it doesn't work by holding the power and volume down buttons. When Ting was troubleshooting, they had me use the calculator to boot into the safe mode but I forgot how we did it. I think I may need to flash the factory rom but I not quite sure where to start. Please help!! I am just learning where things are on the tablet even though I have had it for a couple of years so please don't use too technical terms.
Thanks
this is done by google play
go in parameters & disable this option

Thanks for your reply. Is this Google Play Store that does this? Sorry to be a noob but how do I get to parameters to disable this.
Thanks for your patience.
start google play (not wifi connected)
choose parameters option
regards
I have rooted the tablet with Kingroot and have uninstalled or disabled almost everything, but still have the issue. Everytime I connect to wifi, apps are downloaded and installed automatically. Does anyone have any suggestions? If I should install the factory rom, please direct me to where I can get the file and the directions to install. Thanks
OK
Thanks for all the suggestions. Nothing is working. Now when I turn off Wifi, after a second of two, it comes back on so I can't stop all the apps from downloading and installing. The apps use all my memory so if I try to do anything the tablet is slow and there is always some screen popping up. If I install the factory rom, will that get rid of everything and put it back to original? Doing a factory reset doesn't help.
Hello everyone. This is my first post but browsing this site has been very helpful for me many times in the past.
Last night I was attempting to root my phone for the first time. It's a OnePlus 6, and I accidentally wiped the whole thing in TWRP. At that point, I downloaded the ZIP from Oneplus/Support/softwareupgrade (Sorry I am unable to post outside links here yet) and sideload it back to the phone in TWRP. This worked to reinstall the OS, and the phone is functional for the most part. But I am unable to download any apps from Google Play. "Downloading" is what it displays and I've left it for a long while and it made no progress.
I have attempted to cancel the downloads and restart them, clear data from Google Play and Google Play services, reboot the device, and clearing the cache from recovery. None of these had any effect and I still cannot download apps. I have also tried with both WiFi and mobile data.
I'm not sure if some of you may know what exactly caused this or anything that can be done to resolve it. I'm open to anything. I'm inexperienced with Android modifications and just want my phone to be rooted and fully functional, and I'm not sure the best route to get there.
