Hey all, I was excited to get a LG G2 yesterday, and even more excited to install 4.4.2 onto it.
I followed xdabbeb's guide of course, and I can successfully get everything to work except for the very last step.
My phone is currently on stock VS98012B. Yes, it is rooted. No, there are not any recoveries/mods on it.
I can successfully push dlpkgfile to /cache/fota. Yes, I also created a recovery folder within cache, and the first adb shell command works perfectly (it creates a file named command within the cache/recovery folder.)
But when I enter the final adb command, my phone just restarts without applying any update to it. When it turns back on, the "command" file is gone, but dlpkgfile is still on the device.
Any suggestions? I'm completely lost and have no ideas about what to do.

Only thing I can suggest is follow the guide to return to out of the box stock then try it. I went that route last night because I had TWRP on my phone and it worked fine.

Installed rom manager
I installed rom manager to use to back up phone it rebooted to run the back up and it got stuck in fast boot, so i did some searching and found the page on fixing that. i used the second posters method instead of thecubed (because he said it was easier and thecubed agreed) and now all i get is an lg start screen. do not follow the other guys post it is for another phone completely i had to find it out the hard way. so any ideas on how i can get back to working phone?
The file you deleted was the mmcbik0p8 backup found on your ext card. When reinstalling the recovery CWM should have rewritten it with the correct version.
Try removing your card and mounting it on a pc go in and manually delete file and try to boot the phone. I had to do this to make my revolution boot.
This is how i fixed it
adrenaline_rush said:
Its not hard to fix at all, you will have to install the Java JDK, Android SDK, and three files AdbWinApi.dll, fastboot.exe, and CWMrecoveryrevolution.img which is the clockwork recovery for our phone.
Here are the files in .rar format.
http://www.mediafire.com/?eb3219cy0lbc71m
Android SDK
Java JDK
The first version should work
1. Install the Android SDK to your C: drive. Make sure the SDK and all the files are in C:\androidSDK. This will make things easier later.
2. Open the SDK and install the additional AndroidSDK platform tools package
3. Install the Java JDK
4. Unzip the .rar to c:/androidSDK/tools
5. Open command prompt, start> type "cmd"> press enter
6. Plug in phone
6. Assuming you placed everything in the right folders, type the following into the command prompt
Code:
cd c:/androidSDK/tools
7. You should now be in the correct folder, paste this command next:
Code:
fastboot erase recovery
then:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery CWMrecoveryrevolution.img
If that succeeds then type the final command:
Code:
fastboot reboot
Hopefully this works and is understandable

Don't work
Yeah this method don't work any more I tried yesterday and today with the revolution file. Fast boot does not find the phone. Cmd is <waiting for device>. Going to Verizon tomorrow to get new phone.
Edit: why it doesn't work is because I used the easy method that the other user posted, i did not check the phone version of the flash file, so now my phone has the wrong firmware on it and wont boot. Also it does not get recognized by my pc.

You tried the volume up + power to get to the recovery?
Tried that too.
The only way the Vol. up and power button works if I have the battery out and the usb hooked up, and then the screen says do not detach download in progress. I left it this way for about two hours thinking it would magically fix it self but it didn't. Called Verizon about an hour ago and I going to get my new phone in the afternoon tomorrow. they over-nighting it to me, they said any new tech with 4g they try to get it fixed as fast as possible. I then asked when 4g would be coming to my area he said spring of 2013... lol
Oh, you could have flashed the .tot system file over, but I guess it does take some time to get the program set up, and they're already replacing it..
Tried
I had all the above programs installed and working properly, that is how i got to a non-working phone, I flashed it with the wrong firmware which bricked it. Its not detected in any of the programs because all the programs are looking for a revo and i flashed to something else.
This was posted in the revo fastboot fix thread, I followed it and it bricked my phone.
hello everyone, im pretty sure i was the first one to run into this issue since it happened twice on two different phones. but for an extremely easy fix just look here, believe me it doesn't get any easier than this. this is another way it was explained, but both are pretty much the same. im only posting this in case someone doesn't understand the directions posted by thecubed, not saying the ones i post it are better, just explained differently, not trying to step on anyone's shoes here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1088046

Still no CWM
I rooted my Revo using adb and zergrush. I'm running v6 and cannot get CWM to work using adb, RevoToolKit or even on a command line on the phone itself. So far all I've done is reload my phone. It stays rooted, but no CWM. Md5's all check out on mmcblk0p14 before I restart, using adb and a terminal on the phone. The checksum is right when I dl the recovery-cwm-pr1.img in the zip, also.
I did do an OTA update after I rooted. Could that be the problem? Should I unroot and reroot?

Issues activating 4G LTE
Hello all,
First post so woot! but, kind of bad news at the same time. My friend and I were rooting/CWM'ing/ROM'ing his phone and we hit this road block. Everything went find up to the flashing of Gingervolt. It boots up and starts the initial setup sequence, but after the step where it ask for language, it sits and spins it's wheels for a while before saying that it cannot find the SIM card. There is also a small SIM card icon with a question mark next to the signal bar meter. This step is keeping us from being able to move forward and was wondering if there is any hope to get this thing to activate.
Things we've tried:
1) Reboot, restore, wiped all the caches
2) Did a nandroid restore of before we flashed it with Gingervolt
3) Downloaded a stock/rooted ROM (and received the same results)
4) Calling Verizon's activation hotline (told us nothing)
5) Taking out/Putting back the SIM card and seeing if that maybe would reset something. (I guess not)
It would be really cool if I could figure this out so he doesn't have to bring it in to big red :3
Thanks and you all rock!

Was 4g turned on when you flashed? If nothing else you can flash the zv7 tot file through lgnspt.
Thanks so much for your quick reply,
I think that is going to be my next option. Thanks for reassuring me that is the right direction! And yes, I did have 4g (It was called LTE, I think it's the same thing.) enabled before flash.

I rooted it with adb following root.bat. I run linux and am a terminal junkie. The rooting went fine. I then dl'ed recovery-cwm-pr1.img and adb'ed it over to the sdcard, ran all the checksums, from adb and on a root terminal on the phone. Then from adb, moved the image file to block mmcblk0p14, ran checksums again from both adb and the terminal on the phone. They both checked out fine, again.
After reboot, it just wiped, no CWM. It might be a permissions problem. I see no execute bit set. Should it be?

Not a permission problem, there are a couple of files in there that have to be removed otherwise it blocks it from booting into cwm with the key press combo. You have to boot into cwm using quick boot or the reboot into recovery option in the revotoolkit menu. If you flash GingerVolt you will then have reboot and recovery in the power menu, but also will be able to enter recovery through the button combo.
You will have to push the recovery image again first though.
Ok so how do I start this? Well I got an htc one for christmas and I wanted to root it. Everything was fine until I decided to flash a custom kit kat rom. The rom was stuck in a boot loop so I went back to twrp and flashed my recovery. I thought I fixed everything but then I stopped getting phone service. It kept saying looking for service. I thought it was a bad recovery so I downloaded cm from rom manager. While it was downloading, the phone just randomly rebooted. It kept doing this and still is.so then, being the idiot I am, flashed clockwork recovery to see if it would change anything. I tried downloading cm from rom manager again and finally finished downloading before it started rebooting again. I went into clockwork recovery and flashed cm and now it keeps rebooting and I have no phone service. I have no idea what to do. By switching from twrp to clockwork, I lost my recovery. Im totally screwed. I need help please!What do I do!!!!????
Run an RUU to fix and only flash roms that are made for Sprint or have Sprint support.
Sounds like you flashed a GSM rom that's why everything is jacked up.

You *have* to get your Android SDK setup properly. All the commands your run end up on "command not found" of "invalid exe" and that suggests a few things:
First -- make *sure* you install the correct SDK for your computer. If you can't find them, let us know what your computer is (32-bit, 64-bit, windows, etc.). Further, it seem possible:
1) You did not yet install the Android SDK (or ADT bundle if that's what you grab);
2) If just the SDK, you did not run the 'android' app and let it update all the platform-tools apps (that's adb, fastboot, etc);
3) You did not open a command shell in the <sdk>/platform-tools directory, or you did not add your <sdk>/tools and <sdk>/platform-tools to your path. Further:
Finally -- make sure you have your USB drivers loaded if you're using Windows.
Don't run 300 miles per hour trying to fix things -- it'll kill your phone. Relax, take a breath and get the SDK setup. That will solve most of your problems (if not all). At least that's what it looks like from afar.
Before you run any of the RUU, you should be able to type either of:
adb devices
or
fastboot devices
The latter works only when you are at the bootloader with your USB plugged in and you selected 'fastboot'; the former runs only when your phone is booted fully.
The Sprint 3.05.651.5 RUU is available here: http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-sprint/news/ (Install at your own risk!)
I just got my motorola yesterday. I did quite a few things like unlocking it and rooting it..After my first initial root it worked fine but earlier today i decided to install lollipop. I was using the twrp version 2.7 to install the rom but i realised it wasnt working till i tried a few more time and it finally it. I tried back up my stock 4.4.4 room before i installed my new rom but it failed several times because i think the recovery was faulty to say the least. Anyways my lollipop worked very fine but i notice anytime i restarted the phone it took a long freaking time to restart but it was working normal as usual until i restarted my phone another time and realised i couldn't go past the bootanimation.It takes forever but i never get past it. I then decided to flash the twrp 2.8.0.1. After flashing i realised I could do a backup but it was too late. I tried a few tricks I've always used to get past the bootanimation like mounting the storage but it never shows up on my pc. I also tried side loading the rom using the adb sideload command but it never workedd.it always shows up saying "error: device not found" but when i go back to the bootloader and use the fastbootdevices command it shows up my device. IS there any recovery that will allow me to sucessfully mount my storage or sideload my rom without all this hussle?Even my the the bootloader unlock warning reboots several times before getting to the never ending bootanimation

There's a number of guides in this subforum that goes through flashing the stock firmware for your phone. The reason you're getting bootloops is because there's currently no stable way to get root access on Lollipop for this phone, but it is being worked on.
ADB can be a bit finicky, so it'd probably be easier to have your ROM on the phone itself, whether in the data/media/ folder in Internal Storage, or on an SD card, since neither are wiped whenever you factory reset or clean your phone. TWRP 2.8.2.0 and above allows you to enable MTP mode so you can move your files straight onto or off your phone.
Actaully i managed to root my phone using chainfare's auto rode for the moto G.I just also installed twrp 2.8.0.3. Unfortunately,I dont have any rom on my phone which is bummer. Yh I do get to MTP enable my device in recovery but it never shows up on my pc.I have had issues like this before and I got it done in minutes without no problem..This is my first motorola device and I'm regretting my choice in buying this phone

Did you try manually selecting the driver is device manager?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/general/restore-to-stock-t2873657 This thread is your best friend. The other thing is that you'll probably need to uninstall the drivers for your phone from Hardware Manager on your OS, unplug your phone, then plug it back in when you're in recovery, and your OS should pull the right drivers to get ADB working. Still, you've got fastboot so the best option for you at the moment is to just restore your phone to stock and go from there.
As I said, though, root doesn't work on Lollipop for our phone yet, and AFAIK we don't have the kernel sources yet for Chainfire (the developer of SuperSU amongst other things) to get root access working without causing bootloops.

Thanks Dude, After your last message I rechecked the mfastboot-v2 folder on the thread and realised the only new file in there was the mfastboot.exe file so i quickly googled it and saw another thread in which i found the file.I downloaded it and then executed all the commands. Goshh I finally saw my phone boot up in a long time which brought a huge smile to my face.
I would like Thank all of you guys who took the time out to visit this thread and give me suggestions. THANK YOU BROS

You will need a recovery for adb sideload. Easiest is to use twrp, first flash twrp, and when in twrp click on sideload so the device is able to receive the files. If you are trying to sideload stock rom, you can also flash stock recovery and click sideload from there.
I guess you are now trying to sideload a rom in fastboot mode?
Edit: excuse me, i think i misunderstood you.

At the moment I am trying to find a way to install TWRP without an OS installed and OEM locked. In research I recognized this as the easiest way to install a new ROM. The only thing I need TWRP now.
If I were you, I'd flash the phone using the unbrick method and unlock the bootloader, so you won't lock yourself out in the future

I wanted to go back from Oxygen OS 5 to 4. And started with making a full wipe, data and system. Now I know that was my mistake. But I did it anyways because it worked the same way before as i upgraded to Oxygen OS Beta xx (An Oreo one).
For refreshing 1I did go trough some tutorials but the process was how I remembered it. I did not change the computer or reseted it since the last time. So I was confidend I still got everthing istalled properly. Driver for my OnePlus 3T seemed to have been installed, too, because I drag&dropped the files I wanted to save on my computer from my OP3T priviously.
But then I starttyped everything in cmd this came up. https://i.imgur.com/Zmo1qeD.png?1
Here is the Installation Folder of ADB with the new Rom inside: https://i.imgur.com/9RD20Ac.png
I already tried this workaround: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=69648733&postcount=47
As I researched on my own the idea came to my mind that adb/windows does not recognize my device. This thing is listed in my device manager: https://i.imgur.com/VO86zuw.png
Thank you in advance! Hope u guy can help me.
Edit: After some digging depper I think I found my mistake. ADB only works when the devices is booted into OS. Which is not possible anymore for me. Now I need to find a way around that.....

Some things you've missed:
1. Your first screenshot shows that ADB connects successfully to your phone because it shows the device ID. So drivers and ADB are ok.
2. ADB reads files from the directory it is invoked in. Your command shell is starting in c:/windows/system, so that's the directory ADB is looking in for OP.zip. you can either cd to the correct directory or specify the full path of the OP.zip file.
So, if you reboot your phone into recovery and select install from ADB then start ADB and verify its connected then run the sideload command pointing to the correct director it should flash the ROM successfully.

I've rooted my RP2 about 5 months ago. 3 of those months the root has been fine I've had no problems until suddenly my GPS stopped working properly, then I was like cool whatever I can deal with it. Then after awhile my camera started acting up and I can't use it at all. I dunno what I downloaded or installed to cause that. But I've been trying to figure it out for 2 months and decided to ask here if anyone knows how to completely wipe everything via ADB because I'm unrooted currently and also tried Factory Reset

You can get all of the files you need to wipe your phone completely and restore a clean untouched version of the software from Razer's Developer Portal site. All you need to do to get there is google, "Razer phone 2 factory images" and click the top link. Just above the downloads for the factory images is a link to unlock your bootloader fully and how to set up adb for the flash_all script to work correctly.
From the factory images site, you should download the latest image file for your carrier of phone. I.e. if you have the global versionof the RP2, download the MR1 zip file under the global images section(P-MR1-RC003-RZR-190305.3110). Everything you need to restore your phone to absolute fresh start will be in the zip file and in the provided instructions.
If the flash script in the zip keeps spitting out errors about fastboot not being a command then you need to follow the steps on Razer's site to add adb and fastboot to your PATHs variable. If it just rushes through the script and resets your phone without pushing files, don't run the flash script as administrator and if that doesn't solve it, then use the command line to reboot the phone into the bootloader with "fastboot reboot bootloader" and try again.
Great guide Alex,
Just to add If you don't want to add the path as a variable, you can always copy paste all the files from minimal ADB/Fastboot (assuming that's what your using),
to the unzipped folder from Razer and run the flash
(my I also note using the global version will remove all of the Three UK bloat and put the device on the update schedule from razer not '3' if that's something you want to do).
