Hello. I was downgrading from MM to LP using lgup. The phone got stuck at the logo so I performed a factory reset. Now I'm at the setup screen but my mobile data and wifi aren't working, so It won't let me proceed to setup my phone. The wifi not working is nothing new, but I've performed resets before and never lost mobile data. I do have a backup on the SD card and on the PC. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks.
Flashed LP compatible modem/radio as well?
First of all, thank you for the reply. I just flashed a KDZ. I didn't have any radio issues when going from LP to MM so I assumed there wouldn't be an issue going back. Now that I think about it, I went to MM with a .zip that had everything.
I was messing with LGUP and I saw the "FOTA" option allows .zips. Could I flash a "complete" package and have everything be compatible?

Ok bricked my Metro GS4 the first time I tried to root, did the un-root and it worked fine, except the wifi will not turn on, I installed TM 4.4.2.
I rooted it with towelroot so it is rooted, I have read that a factory reset worked for some people where their wifi was frosted out, but my question is,
1. Do I need to worry about that since I am wanting to install custom roms, is the wifi just a problem in the rom I used to flash it to, or something else that will be wrong in any rom I use?
2. If I do the factory reset, does this remove root access?

1. You should make sure everything works before flashing any ROMs. You should consider using Odin to return to complete stock, then check wifi before moving forward. Then never flash any stock based ROMs with later version OS than your modem and bootloader or you will again have wifi problems.
2. Factory Data reset does not remove root. It does remove all other user data and downloaded apps as well as things stored on internal storage so back everything up to a computer first.
You stated
"Then never flash any stock based ROMs with later version OS than your modem and bootloader or you will again have wifi problems."
I not sure if I understand, "stock based" I think I used a stock, out of the box, backup, for my un-bricking, that is a 4.4.2
How do I know if they are a later versions OS of my modem and bootloader? I see one here on XDA that is "Stock/Base" that is 4.4.4, but don't know if it is later OS or not.
Factory reset did not fix wifi, and I had backed up with Titanium, but once it restarted titanium cannot find the backup on SD card, so I guess I don't know how to do that either.
Got it going, flashed it to 4.4.4 NH7, and Titanium worked great, I did the backup and then copied them to the SD card, not sure why I can't save them straight to the SD card, but this way worked.
Got your wifi back?
Pp.
Yes got the wifi going
So, yesterday I unlocked my OnePlus 3, rooted it and flashed a custom recovery. So I managed to install MIUI 8, and fingerprint scanner didn't work, so I flashed 3.2.4 firmware. Then I realised that I couldn't get my native language and I installed CM14, but before I flashed 3.2.6 firmware. As far as Nougat is still not ready for my daily usage, I restored OOS 3.2.6 from my entire backup.
I couldn't unlock the device. The pattern was not recognised as correct, even if it was. So I flashed cleaned data, cache and dalvik, and from here my problems started. I had no IMEI, no baseband, no wifi, my phone constantly randomly rebooted, so I tried to flash EFS twrp restore. Nothing. I tried with 3.2.6 firmware. Nothing. I decided to return "original". I copied JUST the EFS and Boot backup from TWRP folder to my pc, locked bootloader, flashed original recovery and OOS 3.2.7. Still the same problems, plus at the beginning I couldn't even complete my first setup. My actual condition is:
OnePlus 3 A3003, locked bootloader, unrooted, stock recovery, oem unlocked, debug enabled, efs partion (at this point I think so) messed up, efs backup doesn't work. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance
EDIT: As the user @_ekis_ suggested me via private message, I flashed OOS, performed a "Fastboot erase modemst1;
Fastboot erase modemst2", and I got back IMEI, baseband (most important thing for me) and SIM. And no more random reboots. But there is still a problem: the wifi. It seems it disabled. Whenever I activate it, I cannot see any wifi, I cannot refresh the WIFI list etc. I already backed up my EFS, and I will perform a new OOS installation via fastboot. I hope for the best
EDIT 2: And yes, it worked! Now everything is back. A real thank you to @_ekis_ for his support and all the OnePlus 3 Telegram group.
Try flashing a modem package and it might help the imei. Theres a thread on the modems around here somewhere.

I don't mind about IMEI. The only thing I want back is just the baseband. I'm trying to flash OOS 3.2.6 now.
If it will not work, I will perform a modemmst erase

GPS is not working after flashing Lineage 14.1
I tried (GPS Status) but still says "Looking for GPS location..." and nothing happened.
Also, I wiped cache and dalvik many times.
Device : HTC One M8
Now, I tried "Venom Roms" and the same issue nothing fixed!
Is some file missing when I rooted or Rom?
Any help will be appreciated..

Can you explain a little more precisely why do we have to do that to get the gps work again... I am now on the latest lineage and can't get the GPS lock. Is there any way to do that without the RUU flashing thing..?

I too would like a little more detail on the GPS issue.
I cannot get a GPS lock either. I've tried a whole lot of a whole lot , and nothing seems to work. My phone is a HTC One M8 / verizon model. I know verizon has some flakey stuff going on, and that may be my issue.
Lots of posts talk about editing the /etc/gps.conf configuration. On verizon phones, that looks to be a symbolic link to another file..Maybe not, my linux kind of SUCKS, but it is weird.
At any rate, when I edit the /etc/gps.conf and uncomment the first 3 lines as stated, my phone goes into a boot cycle, and I have to restore from a backup.
Any help would be greatly appreciated........

I do have a gps lock now on the lineage os...i just followed the steps from guy above... My mistake was when i install a lineage os i allways do the bootloder unlock, then immediately i flash twrp and than a full phone wipe (system, data, cache, internal memory). This time i relocked the bootloader, installed the ruu, then unlocked the bootloder again, after that i let the stock system to fully boot... I go through the first set up and after all that i flashed the twrp, and installed the lineage os but this time without a system wipe, just data, cache and internal memory (internal memory is not a must, but i love when i install a new rom to get totally fresh and clean install).
I don't have a clue why this works but it worked for me and maybe it can work for you...
My HTC M8 is European model but it doesn't matter, because if you do all this step with the stock ruu (Verizon ruu in your case) the files for the gps will be there... Good luck..
Edit: I am using the Navigon Europe and my gps locks instantly like on the stock android 6.0.
Hello, I've got an almost the same issue with GPS, it seems, the "assisted" function isn't work correctly. When I switch on the GPS, I have to wait 3-5 minutes to start working. After a few minutes there is no any issue with that, but a little bit annoying if I want to navigate from an unknown place and I have to drive "blind" for 5 minutes. I use the latest nightly build on my M8. I've started use the previous unofficial build, but currently I always upgrade to the latest nightly. Any idea?
Thanks in advance!
This fixed the GPS for me.
I'm was on LOS nightly 14.1-20170413 when i removed # in gps.conf. (use total commander app)
When phone start bootloop, i use the right quickpulldown to GPS and only 1 touch to disable. In current nightly, it's 2 touchs to disable GPS so have to be even faster before the bootloop or otherwise tap the airplane mode instead to stop bootloop. Also make sure you have screen lock = off or swipe.
now restore # in gps.conf and GPS is working.

Hi,
I recently went into the same issue with GPS on my m8. It was not working at all. I spent couple of days trying to flash different stock roms, RUU, factory reset, editting gps.conf file, even the solution described here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/general/gps-harware-fix-teardown-t3023999. Nothing helped. No matter what I did, I couldn't get GPS working. I mean there was no signal at all.
Finally I wiped MISC partition and it solved the issue. It turned out that some wrong data was held on misc partition that stopped GPS from functioning correctly. One important notice - I was on stock firmware when I wiped MISC partition. Stock firmware managed to reinitialize it properly. If you are on custom FW, I am not sure it will work. You can try and if it will not work, it mean you should be on stock FW.
And just few commands for those who don't know how to do it:
With fastboot:
Code:
fastboot erase misc
If the above gives you "not allowed" error you can do it through adb:
Code:
su -
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/misc
Obviously you should be rooted or you can do the same through TWRP shell.
Hope it will help someone.
Hi,
I have a rooted LG G3 V21A with Xposed framework and custom recovery.
I want to update the phone to V30C with out loosing any data.
I have downloaded Bumped stock ROM but i don't know what is compatible with what.
But i am afraid to get a boot loop or to loos all my data, yes i made nano back up.
will grateful for your help.
Just backup your data to your computer (not a nandroid backup) and perform the update.
If there are problems do the install clean and transfer back the data.
I usually prefer doing clean installs anyway, especially when performing major updates. Keeps the system sharp and avoids weird bugs.
I am trying to revive my old z2 force t-mo edition. It basically crashed after an OTA and lost baseband and IMEI and i threw in in a drawer for months.
I tried flashing newest firmware-nothing, i tried unlocking bootloader and flashing second new firmware-nothing. The device does turn on--just no data, no wifi etc. I'm not too familiar with blankflashing, is this something i can even do with a device that turns on? Will that even work? Moto assistant says they are "unable to verify a match" when i pick repair device and select XT1789-04. Does anyone else have anything else to try? I have not rooted, have not installed pie firmware or anything. Long story short, im now in need of a working phone so i just want to get this working again!
Same boat as you! Have tried everything on here. What's a blank flash?
Have u tried this?https://forum.xda-developers.com/z2...m-tmo-z2-force-27-1-5-flashall-march-t3917070
I was in your situation and this fixed everything (in my case 27.1.5 didn't work, 27.1.7 worked)
Just remember to do a factory reset in stock recovery, after flashing. Without it, I had bootlops
