[Completed] My operating system got deleted somehow, how do I get it back from TWRP? - XDA Assist

I am stuck on TWRP on my LG Tribute 1st generation, it used to have an operating system of v4.4.2 (KitKat). It all started when I did an update, after the "Completion" of the update, I got stuck on TWRP, and when I tried to reboot, I got the "No OS installed, are you sure you want to reboot?" message, that's how I know I don't have an operating system on this. So how do I install a new one? I would like to add that my device is rooted, and a while ago I deleted the "Phone services" file a while ago, (Don't ask me why I did that, there was no reason to do it, and if that's the cause, then I absolutely regret doing it) so I don't know if that's the cause, but my device was working fine before I tried to install the update. So anyway, help on this subject would be GREATLY appreciated.

[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] Last Resort... Need Help.

Phone: Motorola Moto G XT1032
OS: Android 4.4.4
Let me start by saying that I am new here, and I am not sure if this is the correct place to ask for help, but here I go anyway...
I am in desperate need of assistance. Against all better judgment, I rooted my phone a few months ago and now I am in a "pickle" so to speak. I recently recieved the Android 5.0.2 OTA Update notification. I have attempted multiple times to install this update but each and every time I do so, it returns me (after rebooting) a message along the lines of "software update was unsuccessful". I have sifted through some posts online with no avail. I am not the best person when it comes to my phone, however I do know how to get around on a computer.
I guess I should also add that I read somewhere that the phone must be un-rooted before attempting to upgrade, however, I have alrady attempted to do so with the "Full Unroot" option in SuperSu, but the only thing that seemed to have happened is the app is now deleted.
Another thing, I only rooted my phone and did not install any of the recovery programs like CWM or TWRP. This is stock android and no Custom ROM.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I have been waiting for Andoid L for a very long time and am very upset that I am having all these issues trying to use it.
Thank you for listening and look forward to seeing if anyone can help me.

What you may try to want to do is to find the factory stock image online for which ever version you have and run it then upgrade to each new version till you get to lollipop update. Yes you will lose all of your data but if lollipop is what you want that is probably what your gonna have to do. Every time a factory update is available on Motorola before it does the update it will check for every app and checks file system and recovery. Anything out of the ordinary and it will usually not upgrade it. So if I was you look for the stock factory image of 4.4.4 and update to lollipop 5.0.2.
Alternatively flash a custom recovery, TWRP or Philz Touch, and then do a factory reset and flash one of the zips in this collection:

[Completed] [Q] Need to re-install Android 4.4.2 on Prestigio PSP 5508 DUO

Greetings form South Africa!
This is my first post on this forum, so apologies if this is in the wrong section!
Needless to say I am a complete novice with android so I do not know where to start with troubleshooting.
I am in bit of a bind here. As the title suggests, I think I need to do a completely fresh install of Android 4.4.2 on my Prestigio SPS 5508 DUO.
Some Background:
I have rooted my phone with KingoRoot and for the last round used the Titantanium Backup app to uninstall the default Message app and The preinstalled office suite 7.
After that my Google news stand app stopped working with a message saying it stopped working.
I decided to do a factory reset, because I thought it might resolve the issue... That was a mistake it seems.
When My phone rebooted after the factory reset, everything was messed up. the setup wizzard keeps crashing. and I get error messages from almost all the google apps.
The Problem:
I have not backed up anything, so there is nothing to fall back on.
My question now is, is there a way to do a fresh install of the Android OS along with the needed drivers? - same as you would do when formatting your pc: fresh install of windows, install the drivers, then move on to the programs you use.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!
EDIT: On the Prestigio site I have found a firmware update download, maybe something inside here can help? I wanted to post a link but apparently I don't have enough street cred!
Go to prestigio dot com and then go to the PSP5508 page and you will find it under support and firmware

[Completed] Previously rooted VM LG Volt, update from zv5 to zv6 is repeatedly failing.

I'm new to XDA and I'm not a developer, so please let me know if I need to post this somewhere else or if there is any more information that would be helpful to know.
Every few days, my Virgin Mobile LG Volt notifies me that I have a system update available (zv6). I've tried several times to install it, and my phone will restart and display the system update screen with the progress bar. However when the bar reaches about 1/3 of the way across, my phone will suddenly restart and boot up into the OS like normal, and when I check the software version I still have zv5. Then a few days later, the notification pops up again and I repeat the process (with the same results).
My phone was rooted the first two times I tried this (I kept stock android, 4.4.2), and I thought that might be causing the problem so I unrooted it. But that didn't change anything, and now I'm not sure what to do. I tried to find answers online, but all I found was another person on Reddit with the same problem (I can't post outside links since I'm a new user, but you can google "LG Volt won't update from v5.7 to v6.1?" and you'll find it). Any suggestions on what I can do?

[Completed] Vodafon Tab 6 prime Stuck in BootLoop, Restore does not work.

Hi, i have a vodafone tab 6 prime;

I had kingroot installed on my tablet, which worked fine, (i was trying to install linux on my tablet with no success, app on app store which required root permission), my system was unaffected, and worked fine, then there was a system update on google i think, but when i tried to update the system it said the device had to be unrooted, so i went into kingroot and managed to click on re-root, then i deleted king root and all assosiated files, all good i thought, i managed to get the updates but the device needed rebooted to apply, when i did my device is now stuck in boot loop which i presume that kingroot has locked all permisions to the device i may be wrong. I have looked for a stock rom/custom rom to no avail,, i can get into the hard reset on the device, i have cleared/wiped the cache, clicked on factory reset, several times. but still boots into dead android with no command error. I can still get into the recovery system and i have tried the adb sideload to load a back up but it gives error :closed.
i have a second tab prime 6 which i got the details i posted above from, the two devices are identical but i have no idea how to clone/copy or download the rom file. i have no idea how to change permissions and i have no special recovery softward installed like clockworkmod or nandroid. just the basic system, any ideas would be appreciated. so far i have spent 2 weeks researching with no luck. thanks in advance for any help.
