Afaik, therr is no recovery compatible with GPE 5.0.1 fully. We need the kernel sources to make a recovery compatible with it.

Can you please give me another method to flash CyanogenMod 12 on my GPE 5.0.1 converted XT1033?I shall be grateful to you.
Thanks a tonne...

You cant try the method cyanogenmod asks its users to follow [here]. They link you to some cwm recovery. This is a technique which I can not guarentee will work and i suggest you try it out only if you are fairly acquainted with messing around with your phone and fixing soft bricked devices.

The recovery in that page is pretty legacy (02/2014)... Most likely won't work.

The recovery does boot. I tested it on my device just now. But as you said, since it is pretty old, it shouldnt work further.

Zip uploaded. I've only now noticed that the source for the ROM was 5.0, not 5.0.1. OTA Update has not been disabled, so it may be possible to upgrade this ROM. I will try to create a new ROM based on 5.0.1 asap.

at last

I will try. Waiting to see if there are any major issues with this ROM first. I prefer to base ROMs on Firmware Images rather than backups, but those are taking a long time to arrive.

A million thanx to you @lost101 we all were eagerly waiting for this.....Great work..Keep it up bro...thanx again...I am waiting for 5.0.1 flashable zip...

Updater binary failed to flash. Downloaded twice, using recommended twrp.

Was waiting for it anxiously.
Can anyone confirm that is it working on XT1034 (AWS)?
Edit: My boot loader version is 40.22 :-/
I'm using PACMAN RC-3 (4.4.4).
How to update it?

Should I download this one and flash 5.0.1 over or wait for 5.0.1? I mean will I be able to flash it over 5.0 without having to wipe anything?

Thanks, lost101. Just a couple of questions...
Considering it's a soak test. How stable is this?
What languages are included?

I think its almost stable (exceptions are like screen flickering nd a bit less baytery life which is imoroved in 5.0.1)

After a third download, it flashed. Only problem I found was su binary was not installed when I opended su app. Flashing latest chainfire su left me in bootloop.

In the past, this is because the user has updated SuperSU via Google Play. Try to not upgrade the installed version for now.
EDIT: I see now there is an issue with root. I'm still testing, but this zip might be what you need: http://download.chainfire.eu/599/CF...to-Root-falconumtsds-falconretbrds-xt1033.zip
UPDATE: Reading the 'Soak Test' threads, people have successfully installed SuperSU included in TWRP / CWM.

[Q] Lollipop To CM12

So heres the problem i updated my phone to Lollipop; Motorola Stock version, now I plan and have full intentions to flash to CM12. The problem I'm not facing is finding a Lollipop compatible custom recovery which would help me flash to CM12. Oh and its a XT1033. All help is appreciated.

Use TWRP 2.8.1.0. Though I'll advise you to avoid flashing CM12 since it does not support dual sim.

Thanks for the tip hope there won't be issues with screen flickering in this version of TWRP. I have no problem with the single/double sim as I'll be flashing Donkey Kang Kernel enabling me to get one SIM working which is more than enough for me.

I am not addict to custom roms but if you need anything from an owner of a rooted H955 v15c just mention it.
By the way, are you planning custom rom for all models?

yea good luck with locked bootloader.

If you need anything with a rooted 15e (latest lollipop version) image, I can help. Also, how are you going to flash a ROM with the bootloader locked in marshmallow, since bootloader locked in mm = no root and no flashing ROMs? But still very good initiative, I'll look forward to see your progress on the ROM. Nice idea C:

We will give you all our support~

i will try to root mm first

Do it, do it now

i bricked send it to lg and i hope it will get fixed by warranty as far of lock boot loader the phone failed while flashing rom and the partitions where changed so when i was flashing stock Rom was stuck at 9 percent on lg up and i read on forums a lot have the same problem maybe i will not root again lg g flex 2 stock marshmallow to be safe in my other phones the rooting process was easy now i dot want to brick it again sorry guys il try to make mods from v10 for 5.1.1 nothing more for you guys me i will not use it im guess root break this phone partitions so sorry

Well, at least you tried. Thanks for that. If you ever decide to look into unlocking the G Flex2's bootloader, make sure to update us

lets just hope for 7.0. I know LG firmware can get up to v30. so far we have v20 mallows

... oh really ? and how exactly can we do that? It would be great if you could explain it, because everyone here is actually waiting for that to happen !

Flashfire may work at least backing up all partitions.
I believe it still needs a custom recovery to flash but I haven't gotten my device yet. Will be here in a few days.

A few questions

Hey guys! So I have a few questions about the oneplus one here, I'm checking for a friend and I always had a nexus where matching firmware doesn't really matter much. So here they are.
1) What happens if you have the wrong firmware for a rom? Softbrick? Hardbrick? Nothing at all?
2) For a Nougat rom, what firmware do you use? Since this phone hasn't got an official firmware update for Nougat yet.
3) Is there a special recovery here on XDA that can flash all roms? (there was one for the oneplus two) or is TWRP good for all roms?
What confuses me the most about oneplus devices is how the firmware works different from most Android devices. Thanks guys!

Thanks! So it's not as important as it seems? I notice some roms here on XDA specifically say to have the newest firmware, or a certain version. The rom is still expected to boot? And what's the worst case scenario? A soft brick that can be easily fixed with TWRP or something worse? Thanks for the reply! Like I said, I'm coming from a Nexus 6 where none of this firmware stuff really applies :angel:

Yes the rom is a still expected to boot,though,the recommended frimware is to be used so as to avoid any bugs.
However,some roms do require the recommended frimware in order to boot but I don't think even if flash any rom which needs recommended frimware will take you in any kind of brick condition as when you flash a rom on incompatible frimware you'll see error in Twrp,if so happens you just need to have recommended frimware in your storage and flash it then flash the rom again and you'll not face any errors.
Good luck!

1. If you are using TWRP, nothing will happens. Because when you flash a ROM, TWRP will comparing your phone model with build.prop on the targeted ROM. Because based on my experience, somehow i download LineageOS for d802 and flash it to my bacon. TWRP gives an error and didn't flash any firmware. I don't know about CWM or other recovery
2. I'm using Lineage OS. It's pretty good so far. No bug or whatever
3. TWRP is good for all ROM. i think any recovery will do
