[GUIDE] To Asking Questions! (Have a problem? Start Here!)

How to Ask Questions!​
If your messing with your phone, eventually you will have a problem you cant solve on your own. We have all been there, its just part of modding your phone. but if you give some time and a little patience, most of the time its easy to get fixed.
FIRST: SEARCH!!!​​This means try searching a thread if its too long, or searching the entire G2X Section of the forum. (and we can tell if you really searched or if you just say you did to get rid of the people yelling at you) If you see nothing that relates to you, or you have tried all of that, then you can make a post, BUT FIRST...
Stuff to Try Before Posting:​​So... your having a problem with your phone... well there are a few things you can do to help fix most issues:
Go into CWM and clear Cache
try this first, it really does help solve most issues from within a rom
Make a Nandroid Backup and clear data
just do this as a test, make a backup and clear data. check to see if the problem still exists, if it fixes it then its something you installed/did to the rom that caused the problem.
if not then...
Try flashing a new ROM
even if you don't like it, even if you can never go back to gingerbread after ICS just try it to see if it fixes your problem. If it does then you can decide if ICS is worth the issue your having.
Clear App data/Reinstall App
If you having an issue related to a specific app, try going into settings and clearing that app's cache and data. if the issue still exists try uninstalling it then reinstalling it after a reboot.
If none of these things helped you, then its time to make a post.
Things to Include in your post:​​If your having an issue, many of us are willing to help to get it resolved, but first, you need to give us some useful information.
A good checklist to include in your post is the following:
Current Rom
Current kernel
If you have done ANY undervolting or overclocking.
If you had this problem before (either on other ROM's or previously on your current ROM)
If you wiped Cache
If you wiped Data
If you tried installing another ROM
Any other things you already tried (BE SPECIFIC!)
the more you include in the first post the better, too much information is MUCH better than not enough.
If you think the issue is related to a specific ROM, try posting in that ROM's thread in the development section, but please don't spend too much time there. If nobody can find a simple fix, move your discussion to a new thread in the Q and A section, don't clog up the Developer's thread with a single issue.
Once again, the more information you give us the better, and if you don't post the above, someone will most likely ask you those questions, or tell you to do those things first (or they just might ignore the question).
If you see any typos, or think of anything i could add or improve on please let me know.

1. I rooted my phone with one click tool.
2. Then I installed Twrp through play store app.
3. Download cm 14.1 for lg g2. The as well as open gaps.
4. Next thing I did rebooted to twrp recovery and clean it after taking back up. But was not able to flash cm 14.1. Also loaded gapps7. 1.
5. After so many trials nothing happened I even updated twrp to 2.8
6. Then I found twrp 3.0 and tried to flash it.
7. Suddenly my phone came to a stage Fastboot.
8. My computer stopped detecting it.
9. Then I re plugged it into the USB of my computer.
10. I found the partitions are there. But no system is there.
11. Even I don't know to sideload it.
12. Lg flash tool is not able to flash it.
I request if someone know the way to flash it with lg roam. I L be thankful.

[Q] [XOOM 2] Help needed with Safestrap 3.12

Hello,
I have rooted my Xoom 2 ME and installed Safestrap 3.12 as explained here.
Apparently something went wrong after I tried to restore a backup to the Stock ROM Slot. I now have the Blue (instead of Red) Motorola Logo when I boot, followed by error messages telling me the "UI System" and "Configure" Applications have stopped.
Trying to solve the problem, I did a factory reset from the Stock Recovery Boot and now I see that I have lost all my Safestrap Backups and Slots.
So I have no backups to restore and no other Slots than the Stock ROM, which I cannot boot.
What are my options ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

A quick update on this
I'm having help form runandhide05 who is amazingly kind with me, answering all my questions in PM.
I have a Wi-Fi only 8.2 Xoom 2 bought in France so I have flashed this ROM : 0.268.4.MZ607.Retail.en.FR.
I could boot but when I tried to update OTA it failed. It downloads, start updating and fails so I am stuck in 3.2.2.
Also whenever I reach the page of an application in the Android Market, the Android Market quits.
Finally adb doesn't see my device.
I've tried flashing another ROM with the same result : 0.281.8.MZ607.NonEFIGSRetail.en.EU
All this is very new to me, I feel like I have learned a lot in 24 ours but I really have no idea were to go to solve this and feel like I am asking a lot to runandhide05 at the moment so if anyone as "qualified" as him had any idea to help it would be amazing.
… again runandhide05, thank you so much for all your help so far.

Problem solved !
The update succeeded when done via the "Motorola Device Manager" on PC.
After that I could use Google Play without it to quit and adb saw my device again.
I re-rooted and re-installed Safestrap with no troubles.

[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.

I asked it there, thank you for your response.

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

[Completed] Bootloop problem on Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (P5100)

Hello!
I have the following problem and after countless searches over many forums I ended up finding no answer:
About 4-5 months ago my P5100 started to restart itself after 1 or 2 minutes of functioning properly (restarts even faster if i try to connect over Wi-Fi or install an app). I thought that if I leave it for a while everything will be ok, it wasn't the case so I started trying to fix it. Before I go on I mention that my P5100 was rooted , running CWM version 5.5 and CM10(10.1.3), i haven't messed with the rom, recovery, firmware etc. for more that one year and a half so it started all of a sudden. I tried everything starting from simply updating the CM version to ADB commands and finally flashing back to the stock firmware with Odin. The wipe data/factory reset didn't work neither in recovery nor commands, I even tried to delete everything via Internal Storage in my pc through USB. Every time it reverts itself to the point it was left before although everything seemed to work just fine no errors or so. It doesen't remember after reboot any setting I made or any app that i installed(if I manage to install one) it is like i didn't do anything at all to it. :crying:
Many thanks for taking your time to read my thread and maybe help me:laugh:

On rooted Samsung SM-J710FN, camera & other hardware don’t work

I’ve recently been trying to root my Samsung SM-J710FN. I managed to find a sequence of actions that consistently produces a rooted phone. I found TWRP 3.0.2 (I know that later versions exist, but this is the latest I could find for this model) and flashed it using Odin. I then use it to wipe the data partition (because, apparently, TWRP doesn’t work well with encryption). I use adb push to copy SuperSU 2.79 (downloaded from here) and no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0 (in accordance with instructions in this thread, downloaded from here) to /data, then I install both of them using TWRP and reboot.
While the phone does appear rooted, it does end up having some serious problems. Here are some that I managed to find:
The camera doesn’t work. When I try to start the Camera app, it just crashes after a few moments.
The flashlight doesn’t work. When I try to turn it on using the button in the quick settings panel at the top, I get a message saying that the Camera app is using the flashlight (and the flashlight doesn’t turn on, obviously).
The phone does not automatically change orientation as I rotate it (in apps that are supposed to support it, such as Google Chrome), even though the appropriate settings are enabled.
The brightness controls do not affect the screen’s brightness in any way.
(I also can’t manage to re-encrypt the phone after rooting it, but that’s probably better left for a different thread.)
Has anyone else encountered similar problems? What can I do to solve them?

Have you tried to reflash stock ROM again?

I have. In fact, I did so many times before I figured out the exact steps to successfully root the phone (and then a number of times more while troubleshooting these issues). Everything works fine after restoring (unrooted) stock firmware, but stops working again after rooting.

I finally figured it out. Looks like I should have used a different SuperSU version. I repeated the process using SuperSU v2.82 SR5 and the problems stopped.
(I’m still trying to get the phone to be both rooted and encrypted, but that’s a separate story…)
EDIT: I gave up on SuperSU and used Magisk instead. It’s much easier and seems to work perfectly even with encryption!

Can you give me link to download a Android system and Magisk. Which one you used. I have the same problem :c

Here’s Magisk: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk
As for “Android system”, do you mean stock firmware? In that case, I’m really sorry but I haven’t really kept a link to the place I downloaded it from Besides, you need stock firmware that matches your specific phone (based on the part of the world where you bought the phone, I think? I’m not quite sure), which may not be the same as mine.

I've already done it, I downloaded all the necessary files from sammobile.com
But thank you for your willingness to help

As I said before, unfortunately, I have not kept a link to the stock firmware. Further, judging by your other posts, you don’t seem to have a device of the same model as mine (I have SM-J710FN, you said you have SM-J710GN), which means my stock firmware isn’t going to be useful to you anyway.
