[Q] Lost signal in Verizon. - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a play store nexus 6 that had been working fine until some days ago. Long story short I flashed resurrection remix and couldn't get signal so i dialed *#*4636#*#* as suggested and tried switching settings to get a signal and haven't been able to get a signal since. In no way am I saying the ROM is the cause just stating how I got here. I must have changed something there that needs to switch back but no idea.
I used the toolkit for Mac to unroot and go back to stock and still I get no signal. I popped my wife's att sim and her signal sticks. With my Verizon sim in it connects for a few and loses signal again and occasionally tries to connect again but never comes back. I know its trying to connect when I see the exclamation by the data signal.
I went to Verizon and got a new sim card and still no dice. So is there a way to get back to pure stock out of the box? I believe I downloaded a factory image on to Mac but can't flash that until I get home Tuesday from holiday vacation and use my PC to flash it. Again, I'm not sure if that will get me back to being able to get a signal. Suggestions? Thanks!

Try formatting everything and flashing stock images. I've seen them floating around in update.zip format. Don't try to do a *228, that will result in needing a new Sim again.

Why can't you use your Mac to update?

The factory file that I have on my Mac is .tgz file which I believe would need to be flashed on thru a program on windows. Or is that incorrect? Can it be flashed in adb?
Edit: Did a search and going to flash the system files in adb and see if that works.

Use unarchivr or however you spell it. There is a guide in the general forum on how to flash along with setting up adb fastboot and how to use them.

Flashed all the images manually and got it working again.

Good deal!

Flashed wrong rom... need ruu for 1.31.651.2

So while having twenty tabs open and sifting through a bunch of dead threads and guides with dead links. I ended up downloaded a stock rom from the main htc one forum and didn't notice. I thought I was in the Sprint section the whole time.
Now my backup does not work, it boots but I can only see the notification bar and it reboots after like a minute. Installing other roms does the same thing so I am assuming the partitions are borked.
I can still get into twrp, I can unlock and relock the bootloader and adb etc.
My current version is 1.31.651.2
Could someone please provide me with some info on getting this fixed. The only thing I wanted to do was unlock the phone, I called sprint and they gave me the unlock code but I could not find where to enter it. After research I read you need root, and unlock helper. And now here I am haha.
Did you get squared away, or are you still out there on that lonely, over populated island?

Now do you know of a way to actually unlock the phone to be used on gsm?
I tried this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2491840 that didnt work. So now I just restored my original twrp backup that I made after getting it back up. So now I am on 4.1.2 sense 5 original from the ruu and just install SU.
If anyone could point me in the right direction of getting this phone unlocked and working correctly that would be great.
EDIT:
I just noticed after getting it back up with the ruu I am now able to select GSM from mobile data. Before it always said it was sim locked and wouldnt let me choose it.
APN shows T-Mobile Data cinet.spcs and T-Mobile MMS epc.tmobile.com
When I go to Available GSM Network and search networks it shows T-Mobile and AT&T when I choose T-Mobile it tries to register the network for ever then it gets registed and shows T-Mobile as the Available GSM Network but then it gets removed. I was able to make one test call and it worked but then was removed.
Through out all of this I keep getting a message to Change Mode No Network Found Select Yes to switch to global mode, no to stay in current mode. Nothing seems to be working though.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me figure this out.
Hmm seems to have stuck this last time I selected T-Mobile. We will see how long it last. I just want to make sure I have done everything correctly. I would like to get updated to the latest stock plus root rom.
Here are some screenshots.

Nope now its gone, I keep having to select T-Mobile and it only works for a couple minutes. Any ideas?

Can't flash updated firmware via Fastboot

Wondering if somewhere I accidentally loaded something for a different version of the phone. When in bootloader it says it is looking for a file that isn't 0P6BIMG it says it's looking for 0P6BDIAG. Anyone experienced this before?
It's looking for both of those file names and a few more, are you putting it on the root of your sd card
Sent from my 831C using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Yeah, putting it on the root of the sd card like I have a bunch of times but it can't find the right file. I know on my previous phones the ".zip" didn't have to be added to the file name as it was a hidden component but I've tried it both with the .zip added and without and still no luck.
My phone will eventually find it and some small little loading bar pops up on the side but then it goes away and goes back to the previous screen. lost myself
are you trying to flash the h/k firmware? If so is your CID set to 11111111. If you don't have super cid it wont flash because its the not the correct region for your phone. You'll have to set super cid and try again
Or, take the Android infotext from a Sprint m8 Rom and replace it in the zip...I will make a flashable for you

[Q] Need help rooting Droid 4

My wife gave me her old droid 4. She had a problem with the sim card, and after a few trips to the verizon store they just said ok get a new phone. So i have this droid 4 just sitting here. When i turn it on its been wiped and wants to setup the phone. My question is from this state can it be rooted and loaded with a custom rom to just be more like a tablet for the kids or is it just a paperweight at this point?
Everything i read so far says in order to root the phone i have to do at least make sure the phone is in debugging mode, well since you cant even get to that from a normal boot up im wondering what the other options are. I tried using recovery to load things, but that just fails, and i got the droid dev kit to use adb, and that only will sideload an image, which also fails upon verification.
Any help would be awesome

Touch screen

Hi I recently got a Note 3 for AT&T off Ebay. It was stuck in a bootloop so I wound up reflashing through Odin and got it to work. The problem I'm having is that the touch screen does not work but the S-pen does does that mean the digitizer is gone. I looked and read everywhere and found no solution other than contacting Samsung and trying to have it under warranty.
What do I do?? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Odd. Did you use kies or Odin? Is it possible this device was opened once and part of the digitizer not plugged in?

I have no clue, the guy i got it from told me it was a work phone, he said the touch screen worked and sometimes he would use the pen. The phone is in excellent condition. I used Odin to reflash the phone also installed Kies3. Do you think maybe flashing a custom rom will help it cause I can do that. I just need the tar file to root the phone, I looked but don't know where to find it.
It's just weird that the s-pen will work but not the touchscreen. Any help would be great.
I have no idea... I would honestly start with redownloading the files and flashing it again. Making sure it is a full Odin flash not a partial one.
Sent from my XT907 using XDA Free mobile app
Well when I flashed it I used the 4 files in the OP and flashed all those. What file do I need to root it. Maybe I will try that
Root isn't your current issue.... And is sorta complicated these days (more than doable just not à quick answer) . I honestly don't know what to tell you.

I swear up and down I've seen this issue once though. I thought it had something to do with a dirty flash or a bad flash which is why I was wondering if you used all four files....
Sent from my XT907 using XDA Free mobile app
Well when I got the phone I noticed that it gave a system process error. When I tried to clear it with the touch screen it wouldn't. But the pen works which makes me believe it might be the digitizer. Not sure I heard there was an app to check the touch screen is this true
There is but it is for calibration.... I found a post that talked about a Samsung app breaking digitizer.... I still think I would do another factory reset, wipe it clean then try Odin again.... Then perhaps even updating all the apps.
Sent from my XT907 using XDA Free mobile app
What Samsung app is that? Maybe I can uninstall it. I will also try to rewipe and reinstall
Well I wound up getting root, installing safestrap, installed FireKat, and still the same no touch screen. I think it had to be a bad digitizer. Any other suggestions

Rooted 5.1 back to 4.4.4 how to

Just want an explained way of how to do this. I wanna get back to kit kat. Currently running cf 1.2a and wanna get back to kit kat for various reasons. Thanks in advance
Same!
I'm curious as well! Haven't seen a guide around
Would also like this answered!
Same here! I took the upgrade before i knew better, now i am stuck in LP land? How can I get back to 4.4 and root my phone?
Thanks!
If you took the ota your **** out of luck. If your rooted 5.1 you can go back
I'm not responsible for anything, blah blah blah. I have done this on my Droid Turbo though, and it worked. Credit to mattlgroff for this.
1. Download this http://batakang.com/ftp/TurboTools/TurboFixEmUpKitkat.zip (if the link is down, let me know and I will mirror it)
2. Boot your phone into fastboot (bootloader) mode. Since you're rooted and on 5.1, I'm assuming you know how to do this.
3. Extract the zip file from step 1 into the same folder that contains fastboot.exe on your computer. I'm also assuming that you have fastboot set up already.
4. Plug your phone into the computer.
5. Double click on the batch file included with the zip.
Done. You should be back to stock 4.4.4.
Thanks. I did the same and it worked. I am back on cf 1.5.5cc. It's great to be back on kit kat.

I had better battery on kit kat. Viper is prob the main reason I went back. Just personal preference really. I was on 5.1 I did a factory reset and wiped cache. Then I ran the fastboot files to go back to su2-12. Then I flashed cfs 1.5.5c. That's all I did.

http://rootjunkysdl.com/?device=Adb Fastboot Files download the adb files. Then under droid turbo firmware dl the su2-12 firmware. Place the 4 fastboot files in with the unzipped contents of the firmware. Then run batch files. It'll get you back to su2-12 4.4.4. Then if you have root you can mofo flash a kit kat img.
