[Q] Unfortunately, LGSmartCover has stopped. - T-Mobile LG G3

I installed Cloudy's latest ROM and I was messing around in Titanium, freezing things. I rebooted and upon reboot I get the error message "Unfortunately LGSmartCover has stopped." I click OK and it pops back up immediately. I'm frozen here. I can make very quick presses enough to get the phone powered off, but it's back to the error upon reboot.
I suppose my question is: What can I do? Is there a way to boot into safe mode from here? Is there a way to boot directly back into TWRP where I can access the latest backup I have?
Any help would be appreciated. This is the first post I have ever made here, having been a member for years and having flashed hundred of ROMS, all without ever posting and asking stupid question and cluttering up threads. I'm well versed in what to do, if someone could provide some outside-the-box thinking. I only say that because I know how harsh XDA can be to (seemingly, in this case) new folks. I believe I have posted in the correct section, but please tell me if I have not.
Many, many thanks.

Cricket Huawei Ascend M860 Nandroid backup?

So, as of yesterday i am completely new to android, though a big tech head.
my typical approach tends to be break it now, and figure out how to fix it.. then if it breaks again you know what to do. haha..
i'm looking for a backup, i uninstalled google talk and of course had the associated problems with doing that, and am unable to repair it without another image.
Other Suggestions?
I tried all of the Clockwork mods available for similar devices and none work :-/ bad thing is, if it doesnt work I have to pull my battery out, meaning I have to take this damn two piece case off! Help us peeps of genius! Thanks
I am also looking for the ROM, as I deleted the Talk as well. I reinstalled Talk, but the Market still does not work. If anyone can help me out here, it would be greatly appreciated.
I think that I have found the ROM at:
Code:
huaweidevice.com/worldwide/downloadCenter.do?method=downloadFile&flay=software&fileName=37043&attachmentName=M860V100R001C153B251SP03.zip
EDIT: It is a very slow download!
EDIT 2: I have installed this and can confirm that it does work!
Ok so we download this but what can we do after we install this? This is just the recovery image right?

I have uploaded this and both informational files to my site. You guys may view then at:
Code:
muh****.com/downloads/
They have images with step by step instructions. I will not be hosting these files long, maybe a few weeks, as it will kill my bandwidth.
Oh, yes, it is only the factory image/rom/firmware. I was only doing this for the people that have messed up their phones and are needing to restore to the current factory settings. This is not the same as the phones restore, as that does not replace system files, but this does.
Thank you Xerxes

So does anyone have a ROM cooked up for this one yet? Or a reliable method to Root it? It is driving me bonkers that it constantly launches the crapware that came preloaded on it. It need to be cleaned, the bloat slows it to a painful speed...
Anyone? Why would it auto launch Uno? Help!

I have rooted mine twice without any issues, other than I deleted Google Talk the first time, using SuperOneClickv1.5.4-ShortFuse.

EDIT: Also I bought SystemApp Remover, to remove Uno, midnight bowling and a few other things. It works great, once you are rooted. You have to hit the uninstall twice on some apps.
system app remover
if it says just uninstalls and not deletes... whats tha difference. also has anyone found a way to increase volume hrough headset/ I am rooted through z4root. also had no luck in installing clockwork mod recovery..
Uninstall means it removes it, and not just deleting the program. So it removes the settings that calls for it to run, and not just delete the program an leave the settings.

[Q] Newbie who needs help

Hello everyone, I'm a new member to this site, and I've heard that this site is where i can go to get some answers to problems, that being said, i was hoping y'all can help me with a problem I'm having with my phone.
So I rooted my Sprint LG G2 phone (this is the first time I've ever rooted a phone), then i went to remove some unwanted apps off the phone, then I thought to test and see if I can go back to stock, and without even thinking about the removed apps that i could've restored, I did a factory reset on my phone, it boots up, and I'm still rooted, and the apps that I removed did not come back, so I went to this app call "superSU" and did a full unroot, after that, I restarted my phone, and I still notice that I have root apps installed like "G2 Xsposed, Xposed Installer, Unistall, and Root Browser, so I opened up "Root Checker", it says my device does not have root access, yet I still have G2 Xposed, as well as other root apps I have, so I'm hoping that I can get the apps that came with the phone back (apps like "Clock Widget, Weather Wiget, Music Wiget, Music, SVI settings"), and go back to when I first bought this phone. Is there any simple method I can do to fix these problems with y'all help, I would really appreiate it.

Yea man I noticed it ony force closes if your in a conversation or message thread and you hit the home button instead of backing out to the message list then pressing home. It's annoying but it can be worked around. Hoping for a fix
Using Gear S Smartwatch
I have also noticed that the necessary files and plugins to connect the phone to the gear s smartwatch are missing from the 5.1.1 update. I found them on a different XDA thread and installed them manually and now everything works as it should with using the smartwatch for those of you who have one. However, I also noticed with messages app I tried a different approach by dirty flashing 5.1.1 over 5.02 stock and messaging was working fine without ANY force closes. Then I installed everything for my Gear S smartwatch and rebooted. Once I rebooted the messages app began to force close again. I dont know if it is due to reboot like capacitive buttons with haptic feedback, or if it was due to one of the plugins for my smartwatch. If anybody can test it out by dirty flashing then rebooting let me know. Sorry for long post, just trying to help.
Is it normal for me to loose root access after installing this rom ? Is there a way I can get it back without being stuck in a bootloop ?

You should probably read up on the ROM a bit before flashing, it's clearly stated (and much discussed) in the thread that root is not available.

How to turn haptic feedback back on for capacitive
For those of you who installed the 5.1.1 rom and lost capacitive feedback after reboot like I did. I found something strange which turned the feature back on. Here's a step by step.
Go into play store and install the app called DU BATTERY SAVER
Once installed, open the app and click on the SAVER TAB at the bottom
In the SAVER TAB click on MY MODE and enable it
Then click on the PENCIL next to MY MODE to Edit it
In there you'll find HAPTIC FEEDBACK IS DISABLED. ENABLE IT.
Voila!! your welcome!!

Lol by accident actually! I downloaded this app cuz it was recommended by Samsung apps and then browsed around in settings. Lol. When u reboot tho you will have to go back in that app and uncheck the setting. Save. Then recheck and save again. Annoying but a workaround for now.

Startup Failed

Phone's rooted, install was success, and subsequent restarts after that was fine. But now I removed some Verizon and LG crapware and after a restart, I get Failed to boot and then it loads the Verizon Flash screen, and occasionally gets to "Android is updating" and loading apps and immediately crashes.

Ouch...this is why I only disable system apps that I'm not sure about, as opposed to actually removing them.
I'm really not sure what you can do if a factory reset isn't working? Flash back to stock is the only thing I can think of?

Sorry I'm a bit busy at the moment. I've never used that return to stock before anyway. Should be easy enough. it's the only thing I can think of trying.
You're not supposed to conpletely uninstall system apps when on stock rom. This will result in security errors (os checks its system files to see if it's been tampered with) and then refuse to boot. This is not specific to the G4 but almost all LG devices
we should probably start a list of bloat that we can actually uninstall/remove as opposed to simply blocking!
There is a DeBloater thread already here. I don't recall a list of what is OK to remove, but people have been posting their log files or which ones THEY removed.
I'd like to add, that I was able to get back to stock with ease.
How were you able to get back to stock?

I just went through this and I think I figured out which app is causing the constant reboots. Mine was literally rebooting approximately 100 times per day (not exaggerating)...Use Titanium Backup and freeze "Android System Webview" so far that seems to have solve my issue. Hope this helps anyone experiencing this reboot nonsense! Good luck!
So I ran into this same problem and after reading this thread about removing system applications on a stock rom I've learned my lesson. I just finished using a Debloater application on my rooted G4 and everything was operating smoothly while I was using the phone. Initially I only blocked the apps I was focusing on (some 30 of them) but eventually ended up deleting them. I decided to reboot my phone just to cover my bases and now I'm getting a boot screen error underneath the LG symbol that says "Start up failed. Your device didn't start up successfully..." I'm able to boot into the stock recovery and attempted a factory reset to no avail. I also attempted to run USB Debugging but it just reset and went back to the bootloop.
Any advice on how to flash back to stock?
If need be and flashing back to stock isn't necessary I have screenshots of the apps I deleted thanks to the backups created by Gates Jr's Debloater app.

I cannot confirm whether your device is infected by that mentioned kind of malware.. Can I know which country you belong to?
And if your device is infected, presently there is nothing we can do. Lookout clearly said that for a normal user it's better to replace the device with a new one. And for an advanced user who know well about root/system files, can try removing those malware from root level...
Everyone is at risk, dont worry.. Someone will come up with a solution..

These malwares will not be removed even on full wipe/factory reset or anything. And as I told presently there is no way to remove it. But dont be sure that your device is infected by that one, may be it's something else.., so first you've to check other things, find out if its because of any application installed in your phone!
Remove those suspicious apps, and then check it out..
I removed many apps. But no success.
Any idea on how the malware reinstall itself after a clean wipe?
Sent from my SM-N9000Q using XDA Free mobile app
the malware doesnt reinstall itself.. it simply hides in the system partition which isn't affected my clean wipes.
the only way to remove it is to wipe and restore the system partition.
You could try

use method 1
that will flash a clean image to your system partition, albeit with root and its caveats like "DO NOT TAKE OTAs, flash manually"
google is the real criminal...
hi guys..first of all install addons detector from playstore..use it ..it will show you all apps with adv.addons…delete those apps….second go to apps..google..yes..google…that is the main culprit..delete all your stored history…caches..cookies etc…third always browse the web in incongnito mode/do not track mode.whenever there is a pop up on your mobile..see the ad closely ..u will see :i:..press it..it will take you to its source..(google)..follow instructions…and you will be fine !! and last but not least…bless me..!!

what does it mean.. i think wiping out entire partition will sort the issue. re partition you device. or wipe and reflash every partition with fastboot commands
The problem is Gearbest. They do this on almost every freaking phone they sell, and in the case of ZF2, they even make it in a way that you are unable to even update the ROM (it gives error everytime). They do this more notoriously on Xiaomi devices, they just come loaded with adware with no chance of getting rid of it, at least for regular smartphone users.
Anyway, i bought mine last month and the way i did it was this:
Convert the SKU from CN to WW (search here the thread on how to do it)
Flash phone with Asus Flash Tool, i used the oldest available LL build, from 05/2015
Reboot to recovery, connect to PC and update to latest LL build via ADB
Reboot to recovery again and update to the first MM build via ADB
Boot the phone normally, put latest MM firmware zip file on internal storage or sdcard and update via update notification.
There you go, a ZE551ML updated to latest official MM firmware, with WW SKU.
