Hi
Just installed the UK stock rom over the EE branded version. The guide I read said about factory reseting the phone. How vital is that? I hate reinstalling apps and configuring the settings and accounts.

it is always advisable to do a factory reset after flashing a new firmware .. however its up to u.. if u face any reboots or crashes or stucked at boot LOGO then dont blame

If you don't want to do it then only do it if things start crashing.

Hi there, i recently installed Foxhound 3.1 rom and everything was perfectly. it all went well for almost 1 week and all of a suden i lost my baseband (so no service) and my imei.
I have searched the foruns and tried a couple of suggestion like instaling another rom, trying to flash radio twice, etc but it doesnt seem to work since everytime i go up to the rom theres no service.
any idea on solutions? might this be due to the fact that i am 0x1 ? thanks!

hello i tried flashing the factory firmware and it doesnt work, any suggestion?
What does unrooting mean, does it make the phone go back to normal like it was when it was bought with the original lg ui and software? All the button shortcuts work? And what exactly does returning to stock mean? is that so you can get a stock rom based of the lg one? or is it back to original software? I looked through the threads about returning to stock but didn't understand what it meant exactly. Sorry i am new to all this. Im asking because my phone is having some problems with battery, i rebooted my phone, and for some reaosn when i sleep the phone dies with like 60 percent battery it didnt do this before. And yes i close the carrier iq and google location services. And i installed wakelock, but it doesnt say anything unusual. Its kind of hard to use this phone like this now, i loved it but now im kind of regretting trading my s4 for this phone. I hope nothing is wrong with my phone. Should i root in this situation? I don't really know what to do, if i should just sell my phone, i dont want to thought. Im asking what unrooting and returning to stock mean, so that if i do root it, and i dont like it, does it mean i can go back to the original stock lg rom it came with? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Why don't you try factory format

What is that?

Factory format is basically factory reset. This wipes all your data but does not unroot your device.

oh alright, i think i should just go ahead and root because i already reset it and it hasn't fixed the problem. I just wanted to know that if i do root that can i go back to normal stock by unrooting?

some idea;
1. clear cache/data of google play service + play.store + play.game
and force stop them.
2. do 1 and restart
3. if problem remains factory reset ur phone.
4. if factory reset doesn work try to flash 4.4.2 of another region by Odin.
:good:
Didn't work

Just to add.
When u receive ota update for different version (e.g 4.3 to 4.4, or maybe next time to key lime pie ... if got the chance), try to factory reset.
It will help to stabilize nd optimize all the changes to all apps on ur newer base.

Hi,
Since I installed the lollipop update from Samsung on my Note3 my mobile network cancels constantly. In most cases, after I made a call. It only reconnects after a restart. Then for several minutes, even though I'm supposed to be on the net, I can not make calls. The update was installed via Odin. Is there a solution to this problem ??
Best wishes and thank you in advance.

Have you tried a factory reset? That's usually the first step to take when you encounter issues after an update.

No, does not help. I also tried to flash a few roms, but that didn't solve the problem. Mostly the connection gets lost, after a phone call.
Maybe the reason is, that I have flashed the leaked HongKong Lollipop rom via. Odin?
The Problem is, that I get a Error, if I try to flash the new german one. x.x

Problem is still there.
I also tried to flash the Vodafone Version of Lollipop via. Odin, but because I didn't back up'ed my PIT-File, I had to use one out of this forum.
