[ROM] [4.4.4] [GPE] [6-26-2014] Stock ROM

Bone stock google play edition ROM with stock kernel. (NOT ROOTED)
Only two changes from stock:
1 Fixed security settings and VPN by deleting a keystore lib.
2 Edited platform.xml to allow apps to write to external SD.
@dandroid13 used to release stock GPE ROMs in i9505 forums but since has not done 4.4.3 or 4.4.4, I am doing it here.
I9505 users, please flash a different kernel.
ATT users, the ROM is NOT Loki'd. PLEASE FLASH LOKI-DOKI AFTER FLASHING THIS ROM.
What I did: Repacked @SamuriHL's 4.4.3 Odin tar into a flashable stock 4.4.3 ROM and flashed it. Then made the 4.4.3-4.4.4 OTA zip flashable by modifying the updater script in it. Then flashed the OTA and then pulled the system, fixed the aforementioned bugs and packaged it into a ROM.
Credits:
@SamuriHL for 4.4.3 Odin tar

Not sure but I think so. The worst case scenario is that you may have to flash a different kernel but I think even that won't be necessary.

No I know but I mentioned it just in case you wanted to update your rom that you made from the 4.4.3 odin image.

Install was smooth and easy. Working flawlessly on Canadian s4. No need for other kernel installation.
Towelroot is not working for rooting.

Tried the rooted version but SuperSU, Towelroot, etc do not work. By the way, I'm on AT&T I337 if that matters.

The rooted version comes with supersu preinstalled. Just flash the rom boot up, open supersu and update binary.
Do not flash supersu zip or try towelroot on the rooted version.

Did not work for me. Also my custom recovery was lost after the flash. I had to towel root to get root access. Still unsure how to regain my custom recovery because whenever i try to install it, I get a message saying the system software isn't supported by AT&T. I don't know what to do. I have this Google Play Rom and root but no recovery.
Also my cell signal got noticeably worse after getting this Rom

Are you sure you flashed the zip in the OP? This ROM (any version) does not touch the recovery at all.
Anyways, if you want to get your custom recovery back, very carefully follow the instructions here:
http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/174
You will need to install a terminal emulator app to do this.
This will give you a working TWRP V2.7.1.0. Then, you can flash your favorite recovery from TWRP

Root works
I just downloaded and flashed the ROM and root works perfectly fine for me.

Thanks for the link to get back my recovery. Weird how this ROM didn't work for me. Glad the guy above me had no issues. Someone at my work was complaining about their AT&T signal today, saying hers also got worse within the last two days. So maybe it wasn't the ROM that caused my weakened signal. I downloaded it two days ago, so I had to assume the issue was the ROM.
Thanks again!

I've been running the rom since he uploaded it and it has been running fine ever since. battery life is great also.

[Q] Can't restore or Install Cyanogenmod on my LG G3 D855

Hi Ladies and Gents,
So I tried to Root my phone with this solution: LG G3 (D855) - How to install CyanogenMod 12 (Android 5.0 Lollipop) User Explore Gadgets On youtube (Can't post llinks....)
Everything worked fine and the phone got Rooted.
So I was going to install Cyanogenmod 12 using this solution: How to Root the LG G3 on Android 5.0 Lollipop (All Variants) (On youtube. User Qbking77)
But when I opened the app "Quick Boot" and pushed the "Recovery Option" i didn't come into the same view as he.
So I tried to do the same via TWRP... And tried to install it. Somehow.. I did something and now when I'm trying to get into the recovery mode the phone is black, and the LED is flashing Red and Blue.
And I cant reset the phone and I cant install Cyanogenmod.
Any thoughts what I have managed to do and how I solve it?
Thanks ALOT!

Hi
You need to downgrade to Kitkat and root it and then install TWRP. There are several threads here on XDA showing how to do this. Basically you need LG Flash tool on PC and download a Kitkat Kdz. If you go to the G3 general thread on here there is a tutorial on how to do it. I think itvis the first topic on the thread.

When you have TWRP installed on the phone it's just a matter of downloading a preferred CM12-based Rom and Gapps and flashing them in that order :good:

Thanks mate. but when you mean install TWRP, you mean only install the APP from the market and then boot into Recovery via the APP?
No options needed to be done within the app?

Nexus 7 wont mount files in TWRP

Recently I got a nexus 7 2013 5.1.1 LMY48I which I tried to root with NRT. Long story short like many other people I cant get TWRP to mount the files it needs(I get to the automated step that is suppose to open TWRP and install some files from a ZIP archive and it hangs up). First off I have a USB OTG cable coming within a couple days. I have looked for the past couple hours for a solution and keep coming up empty. Basically I have two questions, 1. what files do I need to have transferred so that I can get my Root permissions installed properly and 2. should I wait for the USB OTG calbe or should I try to use abs push

I'm in the same boat, really would like to get this thing rooted. I have been all over the WugFresh Forum, as well as Android Central and this one too of course. I have not found an answer to this problem yet. If I come across one I will post here, please do the same.

Dude. this is infuriating. Apparently the alst batch that was made, they changed the mmc chip. These all went out on Groupon and stuff on sale.
https://www.reddit.com/r/AndroidQue...e_to_mount_partitions_after_flashing_twrp_on/
The only recovery that I got to work was the TWRP for Multirom because they actually addressed the issue. The bug has been brought up on the TWRP flo github they just have yet to fix it.

UPDATE: This worked for me I am now on MM 6.0.1 and rooted. Thank you for the find.

Thank you I was able to downgrade and root my device using that method. Now I just need to figure out how to flash to purenexus or just upgrade my device to 6.+ and root it.

You can root 6.0.1 using the beta SU from Chainfire. I am running the new one from Groupon using the multirom TWRP and I flashed SU 2.65 and it worked perfectly.

I did a clean flash of stock 6.0.1. Then flashed the multirom version of TWRP since I have one of the newer chipsets of the Nexus 7. Then I flashed the beta SU. All was good. The issue I am having now is that I can't get the restore from within TWRP to work. I backup fine, but when I restore it gets partway through the system part and then just says Failed. Not really sure what the deal is there. I am guessing it has to do with this multirom version of TWRP, but I'm not really sure...

Installing lastest rom and rooting

Hey guys.
I have installed 6.10.13 MIUI 8.1. When i bought my mi5s phone they installed me that rom and told me that my bootloader is unlocked.
So my question is for someone to write me steps of installing lastest version of european rom. And i didnt find any rooting guide so I would be grateful if someone write me that.
Thanks in advance.

Rooting
You don't have to root the phone to flash custom ROM but be sure that bootloader is unlocked. Boot to fastboot and check: fastboot oem device-info. I have never used Roms from Xiaomi.eu because in general their rooms are Chinese weekly -chinese AP's + more system languages. English is fine for me.
There is a installation guide on site: https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/6-11-10.36056/

Well, it is a ROM from reseller a modified Chinese I guess. Version 8.0.10.0.0. As everything works fine I will keep it as long as some better alternative comes. I have been reading about the others who switched to original Chinese but afterwards regretted they did it. If I were you, before you try some other ROM, I would flash custom recovery TWRP and save/backup current ROM you have now, just in case.
The other option is to flash original Chinese developer ROM and then root the phone and finally get rid of Chinese thrash.
Best luck!

OK. Thanks.
I just realized that they installed me twrp recovery 3.0.2 . Also checked that I have unlocked bootloader .
If I install that weekly rom, what will happen with my data?(will i lose data or it just wipe system and put newer version)
So my last question is how to root mi5s.
I saw in twrp that there is SuperSu option, is this one of ways to root phone?

I prefer eu rom have more optimization just download rom on your phone boot in twrp volume up and power install rom and after that wipe cash data is untouched. Reboot system phone will need some time to boot because it build cash and after that it start to optimize installed applications. It's really simple.

For root install latest super su in twrp...
Sent from my MI 5s using Tapatalk

Thanks for answer.
But I want to be sure, Should i install su from twrp or I need to download and put zip in phone and then install?
Sry for being annoying and asking probably stupid question but I dont want to brick my device already hahah.
One more stupid question, I install SU after rom install?

Ok
Always make back up in twrp in case something happen..
I didn't root my phone but i root all phones that i have before.
So install rom first in twrp than flash super su in twrp all zips need to be on phone. I download everything that i need on phone directly...

[Q] Can I download last firmware from OP3 page and install using TWRP?

Hi guys, I didn't find any concrete answer here so posting this.
I have OOS 3.2.7
I am rooted
I have TWRP recovery
System wants me to install OTA, before doing anything I checked the internet and found it will not work.
What is the best to install the OTA?
Can i do with FlashFire?
Do I need to install the entire ROM downloaded from OP3 official site and re-flash SuperSU? (http://downloads.oneplus.net/oneplus-3/oneplus_3_oxygenos_3.2.8/)
Can I install the OTA with TWRP???
I need a clear answer cause for some reason the community is not aligned on how to do this and I dont want to brick my phone.
Thank you in advance.

there's several threads addressing this exact concern

Get the modified twrp by eng.stk. you can flash the official rom with it. Official twrp will be replaced by stock recovery.
Flashfire didnt work when i treid to install ota, you'll have to download the full rom and either dirty flash or clean flash it. And yes, you have to reflash supersu everytime you reflash a rom.
