Hi everybody.
I have an unlocked droid turbo 2. I updated the software through update software but update failed and the phone was on fastbood and didnt start. I tried to install official Roms using RSD Lite but it failed. So I tried to install official ROMs through guidelines in this thread:https://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-turbo/help/tutorial-how-to-flash-official-firmware-t3074724. It worked and the phone worked but 40GB of 64Gb is occupied by android system. How can I free my space and partition it?

Hi Everyone,
I rooted my device Android 5.1.1 but after one week I got new update notification for android 6.0 marshmallow. My phone downloaded new 359 mb size of update file then my phone rebooted. But while installing new update at boot screen, it fails near around at 25%. I thought it is because I rooted my device. Then I tried Factory Data reset option even then I found my device in rooted state.
Then I full unrooted it with Superuser program. But still update fails. Is there anyone know the reason?
.
Please give the error code appearing during updating at recovery

spice dream uno
Hey i had the same issue with the phone, but after a lot of searching i figured out a way
1. download a flashable zip file (sprout 4) MRA58M http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63162455&postcount=116[/URL]
2. very important backup your files
3. download android drivers on your pc
4. unlock your bootloader, you can do so with the software named "Android one toolkit"
5. With the same software instrall TWRP recovery (flash) on your phone
6.Now make sure your downloaded flashable file is in your device internal memory
7.reboot into TWRP recovery by first power off your device then hold power and volume up ,(if you get a dead android just hold power 2sec and then press volume up)
8. Your phone should be in TWRP
9. tap on wiipe and clear your dalvik/cache and data.
10. install the rom file sprout4MRA58M.zip ,flash that file.
after your done ..reboot!
your good to go!
have some marshmallows!
Help!!! Downgrade version
I updated my Spice Dream uno to Marshmallow but it made my phone slow so now i want to downgrade it to Lollipop. Can anyone please help me???
root spice dream uno 6.0 without pc
Can anyone tell me how to root my spice dream uno Marshmallow without pc ?
Flash stock recovery and try again it will work.
Dear XDA members, my friend have bricked his phone after trying to update to lollipop 5.1.1 from 5.0.1.
Error message: "Unfortunately, the process com.google.process.location has stopped"
I have wiped cache via recovery,boot into safe mode, and even factory reset wipe data but still getting the same error.
I have searched for ways to flash stock using google/xda and i was instructed to download the stock firmware and flash via adb in recovery.
However in my recovery, there was no option to "Update via ADB".
The only options available are, 1)reboot system now 2)Apply update from internal storage 3)Apply update from external storage 4)Wipe data/factory reset 5)Wipe cache partition 6)Apply update from cache.
Current phone model Asus A500KL, WW variant ( i suppose? got it from recovery version as stated below.)
Recovery version 1.8 KOT49H.WW_Phone-11.4.6.94-20141218
From here, i believe the updated firmware the phone is running on is 11.4.6.94, and thus, i have downloaded 3 version of the stock firmware to flash, UL-ASUS_T00P-WW-12.4.5.58-user, UL-ASUS_T00P-WW-11.4.6.88-user and UL-ASUS_T00P-WW-11.4.6.94-user
I also have the downgrade version from Android L to KK which is WW_A500KL-11.4.6.94-20141218_M3.5.22-ota-user.zip
I am uncertain which version will unbrick the phone and put it into the brand new state. (Also, please tell me if the version i downloaded is correct for the phone)
*All of the versions are downloaded from Asus itself.
I would appreciate if someone can tell me how and which version of the stock rom to be flashed.
*Note that the phone is stuck at the error i have mentioned above, and there is no option to sideload or flash via adb in the recovery. It was running on android 5.0.1 before the update, and the 5.1.1 update caused it to be soft bricked.
Will it be possible if i were to just move the 11.4.6.94 downgrade version into my SD card and choose on "Apply update from External storage?",, likewise for the other older version?
Would it be wise if i were to flash the same version again (not the downgrade version) and see if it works?
Does it sound like a Hardware of software issue?
Any reply will be greatly appreciated!
Have you tried reflashing the firmware?

Ps: i am the OP friend with the bricked phone
I am unable to use the phone at all
That is my question.
Which version should I flash via adb Fast boot ( I don't have update via adb option in recovery).
Will it work If I transfer the same firmware version to the phone sd And update from there? ( does same version allow update from external storage?)

Try flashing UL-ASUS_T00P-WW-11.4.6.94-user via adb sideload.

i mentioned twice in both the first post and the 3rd post that i don't have that option in my recovery. I only have update from cache, update from internal storage, and update from external storage. I would appreciate to know if using the apply update from external storage option would fix the phone as the version number is exactly the same and thus, it would be not installed as it is not "an update". Currently we do not have an sd card with us, and is unable to push the file into the internal memory, so would really appreciate if someone can guide me on whether getting an sd card and moving the same firmware version into the sd to apply update from external storage will works.

i also have the same issue, i tried sd update but it fails, no sideload option in recovery and bootloader locked
did U found any solution??
Hi, I just received my axon 7 today, everything works fine and I notice that it's been installing with such a chinese custom rom that has google enabled and international languages including my native, but this cant be updated through OTA.
I have downloaded the firmware from official site, B17 build version but through SD card installing the firmware will always get failed because of couldnt verify, file corrupt, installation aborted and it says the firmware doent match with my phone.
I've done factory reset, clear cache and partition but none of them worked. I want the official rom so I can get the latest update easily.
Hello,
Firstly, my device is the Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 6GB Ram variant.
I was using the Pixel Experience rom as my daily ROM (I don't remember which build), it worked fabulously. But I hadn't updated it in a few months. So after enough procrastination I decided to update. I tried the regular software update method where you go to settings and check for updates, when it booted to TWRP recovery, it failed with an error. I thought it was because the update was the latest one and I was on an older build. So I tried doing a clean install by booting into recovery and wiping everything except internal storage. But the same error popped up again
I don't remember the exact error but it was an Error 7 and said something about the 'firmware version' required is 15.2016.1901.339 or newer. At first I didn't really get it and I kept trying again.
But after spending some hours it started making some sense and so I tried to install the required firmware. Even after doing so, the error kept showing up.
I thought it might be a ROM specific error. So I also tried Resurrection Remix (Pie version) but it yielded the same Error 7. This is the phone I use on a daily basis so I had to get it working somehow. So I flashed the stock ROM, the one that comes out the box. I flashed it using the flashall_AFT.cmd, I'm on the stock ROM now and it's obviously nothing like a custom ROM.
I also tried editing the updater script from the ROMs and deleting the part that was about the error (the first few lines). That didn't work either. The Error 7 was gone but another Error 6 popped up which said it failed to install.
I'd love to go back to using a custom ROM. It bugs me because I couldn't find any way to fix the error.
I'd greatly appreciate it if you can guide me step-by-step on how to install the custom ROM from where I am now i.e from the stock and fix the error.
I hope the above information suffices.
Thanks.

Most pie roms are base on the latest stock pie firmware, you probably need to flash that. Plus Ur twrp version is probably not the newest, all the links are available in the telegram group, and I'm not going to put them here out of respect for the devs. But .339 firmware is the Oreo firmware, I think the one u need to flash is the .050 firmware.
The telegram groups have them all and a little searching can give you all the links you need.

The latest Pixel Experience works great!
So you are on the Stock Firmware then.
1) Unlock the bootloader by Unofficial method (It will help when you want to relock it in future.)
2) Flash the latest TWRP Recovery.
3) Download whatever ROM you want to install and read all the requirements first! The error 7 you mentioned was the Firmware issue and could have been fixed by flashing the Firmware first and then the ROM.
GApps are not required for Pixel Experience as it comes with all the necessary Google Apps.
Hi,
Help needed,
I wanted to update to the newest MadOS. To do so, you should use the TWRP version mentioned there. I first tried to update to that TWRP version. That did not work. I thought maybe first go back to stock rom before upgrading to that version of TWRP. I searched the internet and found the KitKat 4.4.4 stockrom. I flashed that one with SP Tools. So far no problem. When i started the phone I found that it was not an multilanguage version. It was Chinees. I was able to change language in English, but several apps and signs were in Chinees. So I thought i searh for another stockrom.
I found one at chinagadgetsreviews.com. The description said that it was suitable for the s3 advanced and it was the S3SW version. The file i downloaded was
JIAYU S3 (3+16) Android 4.4.4 ROM(S3-20150314-141844)(PC+SD card versions).
So I flashed that one with SP Tools. But at 84% the upgrading stopped. I waited for one hour but it really stopped. I disconnected and reconnected the phone to the PC. From there, the phone was no longer recognized and when i tried to start the phone it starts till you see the wite Jiayu letters and then it stops loading. I tried to start the phone in recovery (I thought maybe the old TWRP is still on the phone). Starting in recovery worked, but no twrp. It started in the old Jiayu recovery. Then I put the sd version mentioned above on the sd card and with the Jiayu recovery I could update to this version. , but I think both versions, the sd and PC versionare not suitable for the S3 Advanced, cause starting the phone still stops by the white jiayu letters.
As far as i see there are two solutions possible.
1) Someone could help me with an nandroid backup. (Then i have to change the imei numbers afterwards)
2) Convert a stockrom to a version that works on SD, but i do not know how that works, so i prefer a Nandroid backup from someone.
Is there someone around withj a nandroid backuop for the jiayu advanced 3 Gig NFC.
(Not the Plus version)

What error message do you get if you update to twrp_20180417.img?
I have S3 Advanced (MT6752, 3 GB RAM, 32 GB internal) which had originally Android 5.1 (Build Number: CKY_MOBILE_JIAYU_S3A_V1.0). I used SP Flash tool to flash twrp_20180417.img to the recovery partition. I used the scatter file from RC5_S3PRO_32GB.zip. My recovery partition starts at 0x0000000002d20000 and has length 0x0000000001000000. The recovery partition was the only one that I flashed.
Then I booted to the just flashed TWRP and installed madOS_8.1.0_s3_h560_20190722.zip and open_gapps-arm64-8.1-nano-20171224-UNOFFICIAL.zip. Now I am a happy Android 8.1.0 user!
