Gummy 4.4 ROM Won't Install and Stuck in AT&T Splash

This is done on a phone that was updated to 4.3 OTA from AT&T.
I followed the instructions and installed TWRP 2.6.3.0 and SuperSU and Knox Remover. I verified that the phone was rooted using root checker. I proceeded to do a Factory Reset, and Wiped the System and started running the Install on the Gummy 4.4 ROM i had saved to the phone's /sdcard. However, it fails. I try to install CM11 ROM from external SD Card and it fails.
What should I do now? TWRP had essentially erased the Android OS from my phone and the NANDROID backup recovery won't recover due to it being a backup of OTA 4.3! Should I try to reinstall a stock 4.3?

I had this issue too. I think it's something in the updater script that is in error.

I'm trying all sorts of ROMS to just get some OS on there now and everything fails to install thru the custom recovery. I think I might have to get another phone T_T

Are you sure you installed a d2att rom?
What are the errors you're getting? "It fails" isn't very clear.

This has been discussed MANY TIMES in many places.
In order to flash a 4.4+ ROM you need TWRP 2.6.3.1 OR the latest CWM.

flash back to stock recovery for ZVC update?

im stock rom zva, rooted, cwm recovery
can i flash stock recovery without loosing all my data?
or does that mean i have to flash a total stock image and go back to like when it came out of the box?
i dont mind loosing root for a while with the new update, and i know you can update with the other recovery. i just went with cwm cuz im used to it from every other phone ive had
any help would be great.
thanks!

You would have to flash stock recovery and unroot, but it is always recommended to do a factory reset after an OTA update anyway, as you may experience issues. The easiest way is to make a backup with titanium and copy all necessary files to your PC, then flash the ZVC tot using LG flash tools. Root after this with ioroot25 and restore your files and data with TBU. Keep that backup on your PC as you never know when you'll need it. You'll have a reliable update this way and minimize or eliminate any update problems.

It does, sms/mms will be in yellow and there are 2 options, select the one that says XML and you will be in business when you restore them.
Edit: By 2 options, I mean don't confuse it with "Messaging" app. Been there done that.

Need Generic Nandroid Backup, Or other solution?

could someone post a file of their nandroid backup of the stock rom? flashable thru twrp please.
I tried flashing the OTA on a stock rooted rom with twrp installed and my phone didn't like that. (rookie mistake:silly now any restore, rom flash, wipe, ect . will not work and my phone boots straight into TWRP every time. So if you could give me your nandroid backup w/o any data, or if you have a better solution please give me that. thanks!

We need more details really.
But if you can get into recovery, have you tried a factory reset? Then reboot.
We need to know your TWRP version, (KK or not), What ROM you were on prior, and what ROM's have you flashed since.

I was on the latest snapshot of CM11 and then i flashed LS970ZV9_DEODEX_STOCKROOT_1_13.zip
then i got the normal notification for the available OTA update (ZV9>>ZVB i believe) and i forgot that OTA's and custom recoveries don't work well together.
So I've literally wiped everything except for sd/data/media (or what ever holds all your photos and music ect) and I've tried restoring ALL my backups, nandroid wont ever work...
I believe installing a new recovery MIGHT work although I've tried two different versions of TWRP i had on my phone. (current TWRP v2.6.3.0)
Requesting:
1. Someone's NANDROID backup zip file with no data, obviously
2. CWM recovery for LS970 (lg optimus g) sprint
3. Drivers for XP PC to be able to access file system of my Optimus G

If you are on a stock rom you should be able to use freegee through the play store and it can install CWM if that's what you want.
Have you tried reflashing a stock rom? Why did you flash the zv9 when the zvc is available? I would try flashing that in recovery, twrp should flash it.
There are a few other options as well. Check the brick recovery thread and it will lead you to a teeny bin, you can use the programs that are suggested there and it will flash a recovery and unlock.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2230106
I think you can also use fastboot to flash a different recovery and unlock.

Yeah i tried reflashing all the roms i have on my phone and i tried the ZVB/C stock (deodexed) rom and they both failed flashing.
ZV9 was the only success until i tried that OTA. I'm downloading the CWM recovery zip file right now to flash in TWRP. could you tell me how i could move that file to my phone within TWRP? I have trouble finding out how to access the file system from my computer when my phone is in TWRP
Thanks for the quick replies!:good:

That's what we needed to know.
I think the issue is your modem. ZV9 is for ICS. ZVB/C is for JB/CM/AOSP
So if you still have your recovery or any unlocked recovery, flash the ZVC modem from the teeny bin thread. Then I would suggest a Stockish Rom. That should get you going.

[Q] 4.4.4 rooted with TWRP and S-Off but still on stock ROM

I am very new to rooting etc, but managed to root my HTC One M8 Developer Edition 4.4.4 and flash TWRP Recovery with the help of the guides in this forum. Also got S-off with Sunshine. I have not installed any custom ROM and still have stock
My question is - will I still receive OTA's (if and when HTC releases lollipop for the Developer Edition?

You can't take an OTA with a non-stock recovery. It will download, but not install.
Root, on the other hand, hasn't typically caused a problem. (though you almost invariably lose root in the process)

Being S-OFF and actually already being Dev edition all you need is to have a stock backup the way it is before you flash a ROM and when the time comes just wipe from whatever ROM you've chosen and restore the backup along with flash your stock recovery.
Or if you want less steps just download the bone stock no root, stock recovery RUU and rename it to "0P6BIMG.zip" and place it in the root of your external sdcard.
Boot into hboot and when it asks what you want to do just press up ,give it plenty of time to flash and when it finishes just reboot and it will be stock just the way it came out of the box only it will still be bootlooader unlocked and S-OFF

Thanks
Thanks jball and jshamlet

You bet

OK. I have gone through several guides and posts but am still confused. I had installed TWRP recovery and before rooting had taken a backup of apps, data and system. After rooting I have downloaded several paid apps including Titanium Backup. If I restore from the backup that I had made, these apps will not be available right?. Also I have paid apps running off my SD Card. These would not have been included in the backup and also might not be available?
Is there anyway of flashing stock recovery alone. WIll be grateful for any guidance or link to other posts.
Thanks & Regards

After flashing a ROM I do the out of box setup and allow Google to restore what apps I normally use,I haven't used titanium backup sense my S2 days cause it's a tossup that it even works right at any given time in my opinion.
As far as recovery goes
Download and install "Flashify" from the playstore and find the stock
recovery.img file.
After installing Flashify go ahead and open the app,give root permission and choose recovery image,now choose file and navigate with whatever root explorer you use and choose the stock recovery.img you downloaded and tap "yup" and it will flash it for you.

Thanks Amber, And just tobe sure - do you know if I will still have root and S-Off after I flash the stock recovery?

Flashing a recovery in fastboot or with Flashify will do just that: flash a recovery to the recovery partition. Nothing else changes.
Root lives on /system. So as long as you don't flash a non-rooted stock rom you will keep root.
Your paid apps are yours. If you wipe them you can just reinstall them from the PS. If you paid for a root app like TiBu and you don't have root anymore, you still own it but it's not very useful...
You have apps on your external SD??? That is so ICS - don't know if they have libs or app data stored on internal anyway, but let's say you nandroid your current installation, take out your SD card, then wipe everything and install new firmware, recovery and rom. You should still be able to restore just your data partition from the nandroid, re-insert your SD and be good as gold.
As long as your new rom can live with the restored /data that is....
But seriously: Move data to external and install apps to internal - so much easier to manage....
Oh, and once S-off you're always S-off unless you run the code to S-on again. Not even flashing RUU will turn you S-on automatically.

[Q] Need some adivse PLEASE!!!!

So this is the situation,
I have SPH-l710 Rooted with CWM, I THOUGHT I made a backup of my stock system.....It made a image.zip and an image directory. SOOOO I flashed the phone with CM121...........In light of all the issues I could not get my camera to work with any app, them CM121 updated, Google play got stuck in a error force close loop that could only be avoided by logging into a separate user account on lollipop. Which is where the camera began to work oddly enough. Anyways I use my camera constantly and wanted to revert back to my 4.4.2 kitkat. SOOOO I booted into recovery and when I selected restore it couldnt find anything. So I installed from the image.zip and everything appeared to be fine EXECPT I couldnt get passed the second samsung logo right after the animation. Just stuck........How can I restore my poor phone back to my system image I have saved?
I tried this multiple times, then just reloaded CM121. PLEASE HELP!!!!!
the wipe/factory reset
wipe cache
wipe dalvik x 3

I did find an image.zip and an image directory with my full phone backup i assume minus the damn splash screen that started this whole thing in the first place. Would I just use odin to flash the image.zip file to restore my original os or would I use CMW and install from zip and use the image.zip file?
And thank you for replying, it's hard to get anyone to help sometimes.

If you Odin to stock, you need a computer. You download the program (sadly Odin is leaked software so it's pretty shady; you could give Heimdall a shot but it didn't work for me, also Odin is Windows only and Heimdall is cross-platform) and then you download a .tar of a stock image and you plug your phone in in download mode and flash it.
However, there is no nj3 modem so you need to use an older one. Is your phone sprint, Virgin Mobile, boost, etc?
Edit: give this thread a look for info on stock .tars http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3121212

I have Odin already from when I flashed cmw 6+ to the phone, but before I installed cm12.1 I used clockworkmod and made a backup image. It created a image.zip file, will this contain my original stock but rooted image?

OK I understand thanks, one more thing if I assume its a full backup of the phone would Odin be better to restore with or use whatever software created the backup?

I think Odin can only flash tars. Ideally, you'd want to restore the backup with the software that made it.

Cwm recovery does not create zip files. If you made a full backup in cwm it should contain system, data, and boot img files. Restore it in cwm recovery.
But to go back to KitKat from lollipop you must wipe internal storage in clockworkmod recovery first .(if that's the recovery you are using).
By the way cwm is pretty crappy. After you fix it, install twrp recovery.

Thanks for the reply, been tryin to get help for a while. So my version of CMW has the option to create an image backup & also create the same backup in zip format. Inside the zip and inside the image directory they have the boot img files and the system data and ect. I have 2 questions, 1 is what part of the internal storage needs to be wiped? I assume you mean format the system directory? which would wipe the os out at that point? And second since I have cmw installed if I wanted to put twrp on and not wipe the system yet would I need to just use odin and flash it to overwrite cmw? I installed cmw with odin to root the phone originally, cmw is not restoring my backups at all correctly so I would love something that would really work.

By wiping internal storage, I mean internal sd card (data/media) not system.
If you cannot restore your backup, and are not worried about losing your data, I would recommend using odin to flash the whole stock .tar and starting fresh from scratch. Then re root by using odin to install twrp.
If you are on boost or virgin Mobile use the ndc tar.

Thanks for the info, I will look into the tar I just need to make sure it's compatible with NJ3 and I am on Virgin mobile. I attached a snapshot of the file cmw created, Im pretty sure I saw a post on how to convert that into a flash-able tar file by combining them into one. That backup is clean except for a screwy boot splash screen and being rooted but besides that it was the first backup. Do you know if twrp has any issues with CM12.1? If I can flash my backup and un-root I would be able to start from scratch and do it the right way this time. I attached the snapshot just for your opinion on if I can use my backup from my phone if you dont mind, also to install twrp if I can use my backup I would need to unroot then re-root with twrp correct? Any thanks so much for the responses

If you put that back on your phone in the clockworkmod folder just restore it? If you flash the ndc tar in odin you will be stock unrooted. Ndc is the build before nj3. There is no nj3 tar so ndc is fine. If you manage to restore your backup and get going, you can just get the app flashify from the play store to install twrp. Get the image file of twrp 2.8.7.0 for sprint (d2spr) and install in flashify. Get it from twrp website.
Your backup only has system in it, it has no data. Next time do a full backup. System, data, and boot. You're trying to go from cm12.1 lollipop to KitKat touchwiz without a data wipe and restore. Won't work.
Honestly dude, you seem to have limited knowledge on this. Don't take that the wrong way at all. To save us both some time and get your phone working, just follow this
It's fine to flash over nj3. I'm on virgin Mobile and I've done it a couple times. Also do a factory reset to wipe data. Also wipe internal storage (data/media).

Nd8 will work, however nj2 is the sprint equivalent to nj3 (latest update). It works fine. It's the last one I used. You may need to do the dialer activation code to get service working after you flash. I think it's ##72786# . I'll check.
here is nj2.
