storage issue

hello
i flashed lollilop ( google factory image ) via fastboot and the surprise is i've only 16 Giga while my phone is 32
anyone kno how solve this i dont wanna reflash again its the last solution and also it drains battery fast
thanks

I had to factory data reset in stock recovery to fix... Tried clearing cache but no luck.

ok ill try now , tnx

Apparently it was a problem with the userdata.img that came with the stock rom. All I had to do was format the userdata from using fastboot!
For anyone else having the problem, here is the command for formatting userdata:
Code:
fastboot format userdata
Found this in another thread

i did a reset via recovery but still the same and flashed purity kk and still ?

You can also boot into recovery and wipe user data partition that way.

[Q] Imei Issues - In desperate need of rescue session, have EFS backup

Hi fellas,
my opo gave out after I switched to an f2fs filesystem and flashed AK kernel, both lollipop... I know dum.
but I ran into the problem where it doesnt recognize my sim card anymore so I checked whether I still had an IMEI and it shows nothing, neither does baseband.
funny enough wifi and bluetooth seem to work, I have backups of modemst1 and modemst2 but flashing them doesnt seem to work, I tried the nightmare fix already and i'm feeling pretty lost now.
Please can anyone help me out?

Same issue here
I'm able to use WiFi properly, however, there is no sim detected and no IMEI either.
I have multiple EFS backups on TWRP as well as the modemst1 and modemst2 files.
Even after restoring the EFS backups, it doesn't help.

Try finding system image and flash it via fastboot
Or tool.
But it will lose all data so be careful and try backing up on your pc.
Sometimes just flashing original system image can bring them back. But don't mess up too much wid it. Bcz i have dead note 2 bcz of that.
So try to flash system image full may ne it will help.

Follow this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/fix-brickloop-audio-fx-fc-efs-corrupt-t2879061
If you have backups of modemst1 and modemst2
Code:
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
then
Code:
fastboot flash modemst1 modemst1.bin
fastboot flash modemst2 modemst2.bin
Otherwise you can erase those two partitions then use this if you don't have backups
Code:
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
this file (NON-HLOS.bin) is usually found in any CM based ROM by unzipping. These instructions are in the guide I linked so read through that too and attempt the solutions there before attempting these commands, they are meant as a last resort if the others don't work

Lost imei (No imei in fastboot) :( No backup of pds

I Tried to re flash stock firmware, nothing ...
Any idea to recover PDS.img, dhob and hob?
Or system imei?
XT1039 RETAIL Brasil
Problem started after erase all in fastboot.

If you used erase all in fastboot, you are out of luck. There is so far no known way to fix this problem.

Hey, there's a tool command in fastboot called "getvar OEM" (lowercase). Try to use it to see what commands are available. If your bootloader is unlocked, chances are this command may give you a list of options to set up some variables and even restore serial number/imei. I've seen it in some Qualcomm powered devices such HTC phones.

lost signal moto xt1039, partition backup request

I've lost cellular signal in my xt1039 device. Tried many things including reflash firmware/ flash modem... with no permanent solution.
At last fellow brother @lost101 suggested to flash some partitions stated here http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/story-lost-recovery-imei-0-t3414511 as a solution. But by searching in google i cant find any.
Can any of you be kind enough to take backup of "dhob" "fsc" "misc" and "hob" partitions from your xt1039 device and by sharing those help me fix my phone? I'll be greatfull forever.
Backing up partition is easy, just install partition backup in your rooted phone. Select raw partition image from setting menu. And its done.

I'm posting this comment just to promote this post, please help me with those partitions if you can.

As far I know, these partition's contain very sensitive data unique to the device. So do not upload these files, and do not flash these partitions on another device. For example, it could cause you to have the same IMEI as someone else, or a multitude of other issues.
As for the actual issue, do your IMEI show up correctly in Android, or is it only the signal that is broken?

My imei is intact. Its just my cellular signal that doesn't work. And its not only my issue, there are many with the same problem but no solution. So here I am requesting those partition to try as a solution as stated in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/story-lost-recovery-imei-0-t3414511 . I've tried everything else that i could find.
In my country wifi network isn't that available. So without cellular network a phone here is as good as dead. Can you suggest any solution?

Flashing those partitions most likely won't fix your network signal, and could make the problem much worse. In the OP you say you flashed the stock modem, so what method did you use to do this? Did you get the stock firmware and run:
Code:
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

did those, tried flashing full firmware and downgrading too... nothing worked. Any other suggestions?

Usually factory firmware would fix it, so it could be a hardware issue. Under what conditions did you lose signal - did you flash a ROM?

failed to mount '/persist' (invalid argument)

I've got the above error (failed to mount '/persist' (invalid argument)) whenever I try to install/restore etc ROMs/Nandroid.
I've tried all sorts of things, different recoveries, different roms which when you attempt to boot anyway will just forever boot. I now find myself on the original firmware (which will boot) but with this issue still. I have carried out a factory reset in the factory recovery also. I've tried repairing system/cache etc but to no avail.
Any ideas? I'm really stuck now because the original issue I was attempted a new ROM/update for has also failed (no network issue) so my device is not much fun at the moment.
Any help would be highly appreciated

i have this problem with htc 10

I've tried to flash the nougat RUU nougat and I get the error, and also the same with /carrier. Lastest TWRP 3.2.1-4.

Type following command in *twrp terminal* ,
(Do at your own risk,make sure to do backup before proceeding)(this method works for me so I'm writing you)
make_ext4fs /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/persist

Erasing persist partition should be ok, I don't know about EFS, because I didn't need to mess with it
