I got this tablet early (Christmas gift) and proceeded to root using vampirefo's rooting method. It worked and all was good until I noticed one of my games was part of the system. I go to delete it with lucky patcher as usual. My next book ended up in a boot loop and I ended up deleting the sys/data partitions hoping to reflash my backup. Well that didn't work and now I've got a tablet with no os installed.
Can someone please link/email a full android 5.0 os for this tablet? I've looked for one to no avail and vampirefo has killed his project sadly .
Btw, thank you vampirefo for your rooting method, it works
Do you still need the rom? Because I can get you a TWRP nandroid backup, but I don't know if you still need it.
I would greatly appreciate a full rom for this.
I have yet to find one or buy a new tablet.
OK, I can get you a nandroid backup tomorrow, but I have one quick question: You said you used vampirefo's rooting method, did you remove encryption on your tablet?
Here's the nandroid backup: https://www.dropbox.com/s/62evsgqvpc2vt0e/Ares85.1nandroid.zip?dl=1 It's already rooted with busybox installed. Just extract the zip onto your SD card (or internal storage if you have encryption disabled) and restore through TWRP.
Sorry that I haven't gotten back to you. I am downloading now and yes I did disable encryption. I hope to have my tablet working again with your backup. Will thank you once I'm successful

Have you restored the backup yet?
I tried but I was unable to format a system partition large enough for the system image. I ended up buying a new tablet, fully backed up and rooted now
Thanks for the help though Star

I am having the same issue....how can I install this through TWRP when I have no ADB and am stuck in DNX mode....I know I really goofed this one up

So i was flashing a rom today and i mistakenly formatted my SD card in TWRP recovery, now my question is if i can restore back my data like my titanium backup and photos?
I havn't yet booted any rom, just booted into my bootloader from the recovery
You hosed. I don't know any way to recover the data. Chalk it up to a learning experience.
Definitely not a good thing... I've had limited success with a couple of apps in the Play Store that MIGHT help.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hexamob.hexamobrecoverypro&hl=en
and
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.defianttech.diskdiggerpro&hl=en
^ There are free versions of these too, but limited. Might use to scan and if successful, buy?
There are some Windows apps that might be able to help as well like:
http://download.cnet.com/SD-Card-Files-Recovery-Pro/3000-2094_4-75934523.html (free to scan / expensive to buy - depends on how important the info is...?)
and
http://www.easeus.com/data-recovery...re/android-sd-card-data-recovery-freeware.htm (freeware, but I think you might have to purchase something if you restore a lot of data..?)
and there are others, so I dunno if any will work for you, but there is still SOME hope...

Not that I can think of... You'll have access to adb and fastboot, but neither of those protocols would be helpful for your issue. It really shouldn't be any worse if you boot at this stage. Now, if you were to start adding a bunch of stuff back to storage once you boot, then your chances of recovering things will lower considerably, but just the few empty folders and a couple of files that generate from booting up shouldn't really make or break it.
I was trying to find a custom recovery, or any recovery that will work on my lg realm. I boot recovery and it gives me a error message so im guessing its either wiped out or blocked...any ideas out there on how to correct or replace it

Looking for one as well. I have not found one.
Recovery is actually preinstalled
I found this just tooling around. Use your favorite file browser, I used
Total commander. /system/vender/itson
The zip file is there. Hope this helps. (Rooted LG ls620)
Could you explain in a little better detail on what you mean Enigmatic177... I'm pulling my hair out Hehe
If anyone makes or finds a working recovery please post it.
Itson is a zip file that was installed after last update it has the basics to unlock the boot loader. I unpacked it used Rom toolbox pro rebooted to RECOVERY did regular reboot system upgraded.
A couple if bit mapp errors 11111. Then I basically flashed CWM.
Before you do this the partitions change from ext2-ext4. I'd advise
Backing them up.

TWRP recovery help L620 LG Realm
hello I followed the steps in the read me file and i succeeded in installing twrp although im having troubles booting up to my system os. when i power on my device it takes me straight to twrp. i have a feeling i might of missed a step. i tried creating a backup but i cant because i noticed my screen turns off fast. do you think you might know what might be the problem why i cant boot up to my os? thanks!
I think i know what seems to be the problem. I think i might have accidentally replaced the boot img with the twrp recovery img. i did not make a backup before this happened. is there anything i can do to make my phone boot up to its normal image? thanks
Nope. It is officially a paperweight and no one I know of has access to the stock ROM either.
Sent from my LGLS620 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Hey
Has anybody found a custom rom?
Finally. Easy as pie
Ok, I downloaded an image (w5c_twrp_bumped.img)
put that img on the root of my sd card
downloaded Rashr from the google play store
opened rashr and tapped 'recovery from storage', navigated to external sd and tapped the image and tapped
ýes please'
flashed it. after the flash the phone rebooted into the twrp recovery.
then just rebooted back into the system
worked perfectly.
im new here im not allowed to post outside links yet, just google "w5c_twrp_bumped.img" should take you to a link for a download of that recovery
i got twrp now as a custom recovery. on my lg realm.

You have the bumped recovery so all i can say if u messed up is to flash a stock rom u can find on google i had to re flash mine a few times messing with root
right on, thanks for the info. I had no problems at all. it all fell in place like i was hoping. The Realm is the easiest device Iv ever rooted, flashed, and messed with. Well, as far as rooting and flashing a custom recovery. dunno bout roms though. Im sure its simple?

OK, I grabbed and extracted this. I used Flashify to simply flash the recovery (w5c_twrp_bumped.img) and it works like a dream on my LG Realm.
OTOH, trying the same on an Exceed 2 gets me TWRP, but it cannot mount much of anything and the backup fails. After failing, it tells me "No OS found, continue?" I continue and get the message "Appears your device has no Root, install now?' I am absolutely certain I have root, or wouldn't even be able to run Flashify, so I continue and it simply boots into the OS just fine. Perhaps the readme isn't complete, as I see the following file in the extracted folder (resources.zip) with no explanation of why it's there. It "appears" to be a flash-able zip that installs "itson" (whatever THAT is). Note that the Realm has this in the /system/vendor/itson, yet the Exceed 2 doesn't.
Have you actually used this on an Exceed 2? And if so, what am I missing here?

I'll do you one better. Just forget about the post you replied to, as it's convoluted as hell. Install TWRP 2.8.6 from here. Ignore the big red warning about the Realm, as he evidently hasn't updated the OP. You can view my notes regarding the Realm in this reply. Tested several times and verified working better than anything else available. Easiest recovery to install I've ever dealt with (all done with an .apk). The option to access via cold boot (battery pull procedure) is something to behold
Be sure to thank the developer, even if you need to create an account to do so. Very VERY nice work!

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Before you replied I installed the version 2.8.5 from here:
http://androidforums.com/threads/twrp-2-8-5-0-for-realm-ls620-and-exceed-2-vs450pp.908704/
Is 2.8.6 better? Looks like the 2.8.5 can't be booted into via key combo from power off? Are there any other differences? I just used the Rashr flash tool from the market to flash 2.8.5. Worked flawlessly. This is actually my mom's phone and it wanted to do a system upgrade but I wanted to back it up first so that's the reason I wanted a recovery.
Pretty cool though, this recovery installs just via an APK!!!? That's amazing!
I'm tempted to install this on her phone next time she comes over... it should be fine right?
Thanks again!!!!!!!!!!

That one will cold boot with the battery pull procedure too. A little further down that thread you'll see I modded it to work correctly with the Exceed 2 in addition to the Realm. I like the 2.8.6 better if only that the dates of the backup are correct now. The 286.apk will work fine and overwrite your current recovery. If you leave it installed, you can always open it and reboot to recovery from within the app. If I have more time I'll post a screenshot, but running late for work. I think the screen dimming/timeout issue was fixed as well, but I haven't verified that. I normally disable that in TWRP anyway, as I like to monitor what it's doing during a backup/restore in case of errors.

Hi
I bought some electronics at an auction and there was a Asus TF101 included in the lot. After reading about the unit I thought it would be great for personal use. I ordered a charger online an I tried it but it gets stuck at the boot screen. If I try switching it off it just switches back on. I think this is a botched root job but I don't know what the previous owner did. I doubt it is hardware related though. It has Clockworkmod Recovery v6.0.1.3 installed and can boot into the recovery but honestly I am a bit lost at what to do next.
Attempts to wipe the data etc to reset the device has all failed. It seems it needs to be flashed so any help will be appreciated. While I am at it I was thinking of going for one of the newer roms here on XDA available for the device.
Update: I wiped the user data and got the unit reset but now it boots straight into the clockworkmod app
Thanks!

Since you have Clockwork installed and recovery is booting, look here.

I did see that and I have done some more reading since I posted here. Will I be able to upgrade from Clockwork to TWRP 2.8. if the unit doesn't boot?
Also I got an error saying that the sdcard cannot be mounted. I know this is the internal storage and not the actual sd card.

That one worry less, was worried something hardware wise was faulty.
This may sound like a stupid question (definitely newbie question) but if I cant access the internal storage how am I going to copy TWRP onto the internal storage and run the install from clockwork?

Sorry it has been a long time since I used Clockwork, but does it not see the external removable sd card? Or try the adb push method if the CM version will support.

Hi guys,
I've got 60 phones to setup, and that's just the biginning. I looked for some solutions to mass deploy them, the fastest way possible. I of course already know titanium backup and applications like that, but i would prefer not to root phone...
I was pretty confident about a nandroid backup : flashing the recovery of the phone is really quick, and i would just have to backup on card or on usb on the go on the master phone, and to restore the backup on all the phone remaining. But it didn't worked as expected, it happens that on each phone, twrp is generating backup in a folder named something like "420khg66g6cca200" and which is different on each phone, and when you put the card in another phone, this one doesn't see the main backup.
I of course tried to sneak arround and generate a backup on the second phone, which i replaced with the content of the first one, but the phone doesn't even boot anymore.
I used twrp because i dind't find another recovery avaiable for the phone, which is by the way a samsung Xcover 3 also known as SM-G388F.
I tried to backup only system, system image, and data and to restore it and the phones is stuck on boot screens.
I tried to backup again with boot partition, same thing happen'd. There's something i don't understand tho, there's some warning about /system partition which can't be mounted when i look around on the recovery of the slave phone.
I'm on stock rom, no root. I looked for similar post (really), but there's mostly guys which make backup / restore on the same phone, and i didn't find my answer.
My questions are : is there someone's who did this before ? Why the phone doesn't boot anymore ? Is there something that's making the backup unrecoverable on another phone ?
In this case, is there anyway to bypass that ?
Thank you by advance.

ok, sorry for the wrong category.
Hello all,
Been a long time dweller and avid reader here. I fell off for a while with my t700. Made the mistake of not checking which TWRP I was on before flashing. So, though everything appeared to
go okay, the OS didn't load. So then I realized my mistake (I was on TWRP 2.6.3-that3) and figured the way around it might be to flash an older ROM, then update TWRP, then go from there. So
I flashed CROMi- XENOGEN 4.7.0. And it also went into a never ending load. I think because I can still get into recovery there is a way out of this? A simple-ish way? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Sorry to get into this issue with such a stupid newb mistake.
Thanks all,

p.s. I should mention the ROM I was trying to flash was ZOMBI POP 5.1.1

You could go here and update your twrp:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tra...overy-kang-twrp-tf700t-2-8-x-xarea51-t3049395
Follow the instruction on the first post how to install the twrp.....
When you have the latest twrp, you may want to format your /data partition because I believed that it is corrupted while installing the previous ROMs. The format may take a very long time so let it finishes before install your prefer ROM. You should be up running with the new ROM of your choice.... Good lucks,....:fingers-crossed:
Thank you for the help. With a little reading and a couple of failed attempts I got the new TWRP on there. And now it doesn't see the external SD card.....which is where the ROM is. Any ideas about that? I double
checked the card to make sure it didn't get fried. It seems to be fine. And the old TWRP saw the contents just fine. If there isn't a way to activate that, can I somehow transfer the ROM to internal memory instead? Although I hate the idea of not being able to use the SD card for flashing.
