So I decided to change my boot animation on my d959 with T-Mobile latest update. I've done it before and never had a problem but this time when I boot up it starts the animation and then just freezes there. Since I'm on D95920m and T-Mobile decided to get rid of download mode I'm not sure this one is coming back.
I have tried everything on XDA I could find but without download or recovery o don't think there is much that can be done for it. Does anyone have a suggestion or am I stuck rebooting hoping it will get past that point just once.

Im not positive on this but I think if you change the setting on the top left to" emergency " you don't have to be in download mode. This has worked great both times I've used it.

Thank you for the suggestion but it didn't work.
I downloaded and tried bot kdz from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2644083
It made it further but errors out. I have attached a couple screen shots as to how far it goes. I'm thinking the computer is suppose to tell the phone to go into download mode, which is not there thanks to T-Mobile, or emergency what ever that is.
And what so odd is the g3 comes boot loader unlocked.
It's like the devs for the flex struggled to get the OS to boot then during extensive testing it booted and they said "Hold the f up don't do anything else. It booted. Box it up and ship it out before the GS5 hits the market"
Yes, it seemed a little rushed. Lucky my wife loves me and didn't kick my butt to hard about it. Ended up getting a Nexus 5 and to be honest I like it more. Always liked stock Android and everything just works. Would have liked to have had a bigger screen so I may join jump and get the Nexus 6 when it comes out. Thanks again for your help.
Have u tried looking at the device manager and changing the phone to just adb had same issue and changed driver to adb instead and was able to flash back to stock am now running my own version of stock modified with g3 apps
This is what my phone looks like now
And what i mean is change the drivers under device manager to adb drivers for the phone and u should be able to flash stock back to the phone

Wow that's amazing you even ported dialer and other system apps? My ROM on the note 2 had ms ported and it took weeks to get everything working. What all did you have to modify? Do you plan to release it that was a lot of work to not share especially as busy at work as you've been.
Also, you need to get with playfulgod seeing how you also ported the g2 modem to your flex based on that baseband.... or possibly you just changed your build.prop to show like you have a flex. Do you think we are idiots?
Like maybe you're running this ROM and taking claiming you made your own?

Lol... That sounds comforting. I'm actually going to wait an see if any xda devs decide to mess around with this and mod their own version before I start using this as my new way to root.
Believe me it works, over at Android community .com I spent 5 hours downgradng my phone trying to get it to stock 1.5 [EPIC FAIL by the way] but I got in touch with him via Twitter and he came to the group and explained it a lot better.
What it does is it uses a security hole thats always been in the android platform to install Cyans 1.4 recovery image and from here you can flash any rom, I never got to try it but I believe and blnldy will say it works.
The .apk has been turned into an application in the market I believe its called Recovery Flasher and Besides me someone else confirmed it work.
Its really neat!
hey guys sorry if this has been answered already but im new to the G1 side of the XDA forums (i got a nexus one, mostly there) and i bought a G1 months and months back off of ebay. at that time i never had an knowledge about rooting or any of that. i have my N1 rooted and i was curious and looked through my G1 unlocked and rooted (bought it that way) and it the about phone part under Model Number, it says "Android Dev Phone 1" now i looked online and these dev phones have a special design on the back and mines doesnt (could have switched back cover) and something about the market not being able to download "cool" things off the market even tho i had no issues downloading on this before. so is this really a dev phone or not really? if so, whats so special about a dev phone? *i have included a picture of the About Phone screen i took with my nexus one*
**well my original post asked if this is a dev phone. i got the answer that its not. but this rom, never heard of this one before. anyone got any clue? also when i downloaded Quick Boot and his the button to go into bootloader, i got a phone icon with a "!". any clues?**
anyone? im just curious
no not a dev phone. it says jesus freak for the kernal. the rom loaded could be a custom rom based off the original devphone rom.

oh okay thanks. i was just curious. i don't really kno much about G1s but thanks
You are NOT providing enough information to determine whether or not that is a DEV PHONE.
Specifically, you need to provide two pictures: FULL front, and FULL back. The data that happens to be on the device does NOT have anything to do with whether it is or is not a dev phone.
You can tell a dev phone because it has cool graphics on the back cover. You will also note that dev phones do NOT say "tmobile" on the front at the speaker.
What makes a dev phone SPECIAL (aside from the graphics) is the BOOTLOADER, which is unlocked for fastbooting custom system images.

well i said in my first post that i dont have that cool design on the back like the dev phone has but i now kno its not a dev phone. what rom is this tho? i downloaded Quick Boot on my phone and when i tried to boot into recovery, i got a phone icon with a "!" symbol. this phone is rooted cuz i have super user permission, terminal, wifi tethering. so whats wrong here? and is this a ROM the person who sold it to me made or is this rom known already?

probably one jesusfreke made? i wasn't really around when g1 first got rooted. i got the mytouch when it first came out and passed on the g1 so i can't really tell you, but that would be my guess. and if that's true, its a pretty damn old ROM.
It's this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=475381
It's one of the oldest custom roms for the G1. The (!) Recovery is the stock recovery. Find Amon_Ra's 1.7.0 recovery and rename it to recovery.img and put it on your sdcard. Open terminal and type "su" then "flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img". From there update the radio to 2.22.23.02, flash danger SPL, and flash CM5.0.8.
thanks guys. i will update my G1 since its extremely slow n has very limited space for apps

sorry i wasnt in the android game when this rom came out. i didnt kno jesusfreke was an actual developer. i just thought the seller made it himself and added it on
okay flashed the recovery img but now im trying to upgrade the radio but when i go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=640535 it gives me two links under the G1 part. how do i kno which to pic?
my current radio is 1.22.12.29. is it safe to flash either radio?
nevermind i got it all to work. thanks a lot guys. i remember when i wanted to root my nexus one, i took about a month and a half to read on everything to make sure i get my facts straight n this time it only took me about 2 or 3 hours. gotta love android ;D
hey guys, new to rooting my device. always been heavy into customization and seen alot of work on here for cyanogen mod. so - went ahead and did the one click root. worked fine, checked with superuser permissions, and rom manager. downloaded cm 6.0.0 stable. "flashed" that rom onto my device, and it asked me to reboot to take effect. so hit reboot. and it is now stuck on the startup boot logo for cm6 with the blue android with the circle around the edge (im sure you all know what im on about) having a look about cant seem to see anybody else with this problem.
heres hoping somebody will help me out, hopefully make me look like a prat and tell me its something really simple and easy to do. beacuse im not liking my phone right now at all :/
Boot into recovery, wipe the device, then reflash the rom.
okay, after having a play i've got it to boot into cm6.0.0 with google addon, however it now says there is no internet connection. anybody?

Stick to stock rom, CM6 kills your battery within a day, half a day if you are a heavy user. I am a lot into customization too but after moving to cm6 I moved back to stock within a week. I think your phone is hinting to you not to install cm6
i didnt know cm6 did that to be fair brother. however, that doesnt solve my problem at the moment. if i find i cant live with it, then ill reset back to stock or a different rom, but at the moment my main priority is to get access to my internet again for the time being whilst i look into different roms
Mine did the same thing. I just waited and within 5 to 10 minutes my phone started and I was able to use it.

Have you inserted the appropriate APN settings? Are you talkin about 3G or WIFI?
Enter/select the correct APNs for your carrier.

This system dump works as normal on GWR. It does have the wifi selection panel as you can see, however you cannot select it.
In dev settings, there is an option to set it to auto, however still no wifi. You need to go factory settings once it boots though otherwise the screen is misaligned and the settings dont show.
Convinced it is boot.img issue.
The boot.img from the dump does not work. just pushes it back into bootloader.
Wi-Fi will be a kernel issue guys, only just got mine yesterday but did spot an article regarding working Wi-Fi on the R
Yeah, this went on a few hours before they posted the fix.
On a side note, so glad you're here and waiting with anticipation with what you can do with our devices. I'm on your m8 and it's flawless!
LeeDroid here!! Heck not had the same device as you since the original HTC Desire, also waiting in anticipation on what you can do..

Wi-Fi is controlled by the Kernel, flash back to 5.1.1 and use this thread for Wi-Fi

If you don't know how to flash back to 5.1.1 (Which I assume you do since you're on an Urbane img then my thread here explains) http://forum.xda-developers.com/g-watch-r/general/install-android-wear-5-1-1-to-lg-g-t3114528

Ha ha ha...indeed, same story here about those HTC Desire days! Hi LeeDroid
I need a 1:1 Urbane system dump in .img format in order to progress this guys.. I have already started playing
Job done.......
So I messed up...Was trying to root and got stuck in a bootloop after flashing MAGISK, so I tried to just reflash the stock image...
I flashed successfully and got out of the bootloop but my wifi stopped working, so I rebooted and tried to reflash with the Pie image instead of oreo. For some reason I was getting errors so I got this bright idea to run the commands one by one in the Flash-All.bat.
But I still kept getting errors so I thought id reboot the bootloader and try again...thats where everything went south..Screen went black cant get to fastboot mode cant get to recovey..Pc recogizes the phone as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008" Bashing my head finding old LG threads that cant work for the razer, I dont know what to do...Any suggestions? Or am i just completely screwed.
Bad news I'm afraid but that's a hard brick you've got there there's nothing you can do to fix that afaik.
Mate, try this link? I googled around for you and this came up. Worth a shot -- best case it fixes it, worst case you're back to square one.

I saw that link on my hunt but I can't use it because the files provided are specific to LG L70 devices, the Razer doesn't use TOT files for firmware they use I'm going file's and the software he provided (which I tried) can only flash tot files.
Thank you though!

Yeah that's what I was afraid of. Well luckily I am able to get it replaced... maybe not the most honest way but I only had it for a day so I went to where I bought it and told them it stopped working and they are sending me a replacement. Since it doesn't actually turn on they can't see that I unlocked the bootloader.... however...I'm still gonna try to root it I'll be more careful but I need root! I've been rooted since way back in Evo4g and Galaxy S1 days I use allot of root features I just can't give up..it's why I dropped Samsungs and went to Razer since Samsung started locking bootloader's... anyway hope it goes better the second time around lol

With the lack of Custom ROMs what root features are you looking for exactly?
I just ordered mine today and like you I've rooted all my past phones except my current LG G6 (which can't be hence my upgrade)
The only thing I usually really need root access for is the free tethering without AT&T knowing and I was able to do that to the G6 without root.
Not trying to be mean or anything I'm just curious.
