You should move this to the Q & A section. Nobody is going to help you here because this section is reserved for actual development. Just trying to help keep you from getting flamed...

I had my phone stuck in TWRP twice last night from failed Rom flashing. This is my post in another thread on how I fixed it. Try this to see if it helps, I'm not responsible if you do any more damage

ADB Sideload. Respond if you need help with it. Macs are the easiest for ADB sideloading because they don't need drivers, I could help you with a PC too but it's more annoying.

The issue with Linux is there aren't any official Google ports for the files for ADB Sideloading. Do you have access to a PC or a Mac? http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html these are the Android SDK files for Mac and Windows, I'm not quite sure if they have Linux support, but you could try. Also Wine, the program that allows you to run Windows apps on Linux or Mac will not work with this because of the way it works, so you need an actual Windows or Mac device. However, if it does support Linux I'm sure it wouldn't be any harder than it is on Windows or Mac. Also I tried using the LG Flash Tool method on various devices and it was more complicated and wouldn't work for me for whatever reason even after installing the drivers.

how would you sideload from a mac. mines stuck. in twrp i didnt even know the radio was updating. i guess my daughter pressed it. lol she was using quick memo to color. what files would i need? i tried to do all the other ways on my wifes windows pc but no go. the phone tries to update firmware when i plug it in and stays at 0.

I'll just say that the way I did it in my post worked for me twice while I was stuck in a TWRP boot loop from failed ROM flashing. Both times it worked with out a hitch to get my Sprint g2 running a tmobile rom back to stock Sprint.

A you running the newest TWRP? I know I wasn't and it continued to fail and stick me in the boot loop into TWRP. Once I updated, I was able to flash CM11 and it's working perfect.

taking an OTA with custom recovery installed = bad for phone. I think that this might be your only hope assuming you have TWRP as your custom recovery.....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451696. I have not seen something similar for CWM, but guessing similar method would exist somewhere
PS - I have verizon version and have not tried this process. seems others have had success

Ok I just fixed this with CWM. Go into your device manager on your PC, you should have a yellow exclamation next to do D800. Right click that and select 'update drivers' the 'browse for drivers' and finally 'let me pick from a list of drivers'. Once you do that, in the list should be android device. Select that and then it should bring you to another list where GOOGLE is selected and ADB Test port. Select that and force that driver. Once it does that ADB shell will work in CWM! Then just follow the commands above! Reboot and rejoice!
How do I find a specific driver?

[Q] Sprint LG G2 Bricked by Custom Recovery

Sorry to bother everyone, but I am in a really sticky situation here. I don't know much about rooting and recovery, and have run into a real issue, so I will try to explain as best I can. I rooted my phone no problem and installed a custom recovery that didn't work at all, so I left it and forgot about it. Today, I tried to update my phone but when it rebooted I simply got the message: [830] Fastboot mode started then below it says: [830]udc_start() and will not advance. I cannot do anything with the phone when I plug it in nor can I access any of the files aw it doesn't seem to be recognized, and when I boot into recovery I just get the screen with the same message. I tried putting it into download mode, but it just said 0% and no messages about drivers or anything popped up onto my screen. I am in a real pinch here fellas, and I really hope you guys can help me out. Thank you all in advance.

Thank you everyone, the issue was fixed! After verifying the files, looks like I picked up the wrong TOT file. Had so many of them downloaded over trying to fix this I confused them . Thank you for all of the help, I truly appreciate it. I'm not sure if I am supposed to close the thread or if a moderator will do it or what the protocol is, but consider the issue resolved .

LG G2 used

So I've just bought a used LG G2 D802 32GB and the rootchecker app shows me that it has been rooted. I'm trying to find a way to make it completely stock, unrooted again so that my warranty would work. I've found that I need to flash .kdz file. I tried getting into download mode(plugging in USB cable while holding volume up), but unsuccessfully. Should I do anything before flashing? Should I somehow make a backup? Do I need to install TWRP before doing that? Or maybe I already have it, I don't know Any advice would be helpful.

Samsung Galaxy Tab A6 with S-Pen (SM-P585)

Hi All,
I'm basically starting this thread as i have not seen many users of this tablet and my main purposes are:
1) to look for users of the same tablet so we can pool our knowledge together as we go along this somewhat new and rare device
2) i would like to root the device and i haven't seen anyone post any guides yet for this device. FYI, i have already updated to Nougat 7.0 o the device. So far, all the guides i've seen are for Marshmallow.
i hope i can get some members to reply to my thread and, hopefully, have a running thread here in XDA... hoping that in the future we could get someone to develop a new ROM when Samsung decides to stop send OTA updates.
+1 here!
I've seen people already rooting it, but as I google for its root method, there are websites I just can't trust or see the positive results, or a few posts with "thanks, it worked".
If at least they could share to us where did they got the instructions for rooting...
---------- Post added at 09:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:18 PM ----------
Hmmm xda have posted how to root it.
A few paragraphs further on the first post of this topic there's a procedure for rooting.

Blank screen in Recovery Mode while trying to root SM-P585Y
I'm a little disheartened to see so few subscribers to this thread but here goes:
I'm trying to root my SM-P585Y using Odin and flashing TWRP recovery. Everything's fine until the step where I have to boot from Download Mode into Recovery Mode. Instead of going into the normal recovery screen, my screen just goes blank occasionally displaying a few random lines or vibrating when I push random buttons trying to get some sort of response. I can get it back into Download Mode by pressing "Volume Down + Power + Home" but that's about it. I've essentially lost Recovery Mode, and a regular reboot from Download Mode by pressing Volume Down just takes me back to the blank screen with random lines.
Any ideas on what to do?

The TWRP device tree of P585Y is from MM. If your tablet is android 8.1, it'll cause error. Just flash stock rom or stock recovery to fix it. If you want to root, just use magisk.

Extract boot.img from stock rom file. Just use Magisk manager app to patch the boot.img. Then rename generated file to boot.img and compress it to tar file. Finally flash the file with odin in AP.

Hi guys.
I'm trying to update the android from the P585.
I already tried to install the T585/T580 ROMs, but it doesn't work.
I think it's because of the model, because it has a slightly different name ( gtaxllte Vs gtanotexllte )
Information about P585.
Device Name: gtanotextllte
Device: Model SM-P585M
Device CPU: arm64-v8a,armeabi-v7a,armeabi
I looked a lot on the internet for a ROM for the P585, but I couldn't find it.
Does anyone here already found ROM for P585?

SM-G925F Flashing and bootloader issue

Hey guys,
I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
Tried flashing the G925F with the latest firmware, but the phone is stuff on the boot logo and wont move past it.
I can ONLY access download mode, recovery mode is unavailable. I've looked for a bootloader but theres so many versions all over the place and I dont want to pick the wrong one.
G925FXXU6ERF5 is the phone with the following details:
UK XEU CSC running Android 7.0 (well supposed to be lol)
The amount of threads I've gone through end up with the end of having users PM'ing each other for the answer or 'search for the answer'
So any help would be grateful.

OK, got some progress. After reading a similar issue I followed a guide on installing TWRP recovery and was finally able to boot into some kind of recovery mode. Now I'm just stuck with what to do hahaha. Its just strange that when I flash with Odin with the official firmware in the AP, I cant access the recovery mode, but flashing with TWRP the their recovery mode works perfectly.
Update, after a lot of searching on youtube and forums etc, was able to find out the data section was read as 0MB so wiped the storage via change the format of the storage then changing it back. This was able to make the data storage read correctly.
Installed the correct firmware which I had tried before, but this time the phone went through the update and was able to go through a full set up.
Just typing out this info for anyone else having the same issues.

After I got it working it did a bunch of updates but then stopped working.. back with the boot loop and failing to get to normal recovery. Only twrp works perfectly. If yours works only with usb attached I'd say it could be the battery or something linked to the battery.
