[Q] Can anyone help??? Deleted Folders with Rootexplorer.

Hi,
This is my first post so please if I'm in the wrong place or doing anything wrong please let me know.
My problem and yes I am the fool to blame! The other night I was playing with root explorer and decided it would be a "great" idea to delete all the folders on my Milestone A854, PDS DATA etc etc.
What harm could it do? I just reinstall a rom back on and all sorted...... Wrong! I reinstalled roms using mini mod and then sbf files with RDS lite both producing the same outcome. A phone that displays the "M" Motorola logo then turns off and tries again......repeatedly!
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Hello,
I know for me, I did the same thing with my Motorola Droid. But the thing is I didn't know what files the Droid had when it was in factory mode. So I decided to flash back to the original, in my case Verizon, SBF file. Then I rebooted, and let my phone update itself to the latest version, then did the whole "rooting" process, with the same rom I've been using.
Hope that helps

Thanks Jin,
My problem here is I don't know what it had in the first place? I've tried flashing stock UK SBF but that just puts you in the Motorola boot loop so no opportunity to update.
Any further help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

im sorry if i get it wrong, so u cant get to recovery mode or sort of? i deleted one of the folder on /data n /system before, but i managed to entered recovery mode. n did the rest via console.

Yes I have and can still get to open recovery.
What could I try and do from there? I've tried with updates through this method the same way you put on custom firmware ( put the rom file in the open recovery updates folder).
So what do I need to do via console?

Still stuck with this one have tried stock sbf and custom roms all same problem BOOTLOOP have tried taking battery out then factory reset still same. Don't understand what wenderis means by "do the rest via console" ? So if any one out there can get my brick back to life you will be loved forever.

[Q] Phone wiped, adb won't find device

EDIT: No problem, I found the leakage. A mod can delete this one if necessary.
So, here's the story.
I was going on fine, until I decided to flash a new rom. So I did. My rom of choice was ViperOne.
Since I couldn't find it in the Rom Manager app, I did it the old way, directly onto the internal memory of the phone, and went through recovery to flash it on.
Here is where the trouble started. I went through the flashing menu of the ViperOne, and it came back negative. So I rebooted, just to find out, that my whole phone was wiped clean. First, it wouldn't even go into my recovery, but I got that fixed by flashing it on again via fastboot. Cool.
So, now to the problem. I need an OS to use the phone, rite? Cool, I'll just push it on via adb (googled the instructions, based on comments it works), BUT my computer wont find my m7 when I type in "adb devices". I have restarted adb and unplugged the phone etc. and tried it with adb sidelock (in TWRP) and without. Nothing happens.
So, what is there to do? I'm really stuck here. Help me please
Thanks,

[Q] Bricked, fixed, bricked worse.

Hey all. Appreciate any help, because Im out of ideas here. A friend brought me his Vzw G2 yesterday morning, which he had bricked trying to install cm12 (He's had it rooted and unlocked since he got it), and he apparently tried to install a cm12- compatible twrp, and thats when he got a secure boot error. I fixed it just by using the lg flashing tool and a tot and restoring it to stock, but when I tried to flash it, I ran into the issue of twrp wouldn't flash anything, some drinks were had, and out of drunken stupidity last night we tried to dd a new copy of twrp, from twrp's shell onto it, which sent it back into a brick. Now, its worse, download mode cant even be accessed. I've been at this all day trying to fix it. Trying to go to recovery takes it to fastboot, but, it goes blank after about 10 seconds, and then no fastboot connection can actually be made to the device so I cant use fastboot. I'm on linux, so it does show all of the devices partitions under /dev, so I tried another post's idea of manually dding the entire bootstack onto the device, partition by partition, but that didnt seem to change anything. It's on the 39a lollipop update. Any one have any other suggestions?

Any luck?

No, sadly still nothing. I've tried re-dding a few times, but I cant think/read anything else to try.

CWM Bootloop question?

Hey all i apologize in advance im really new to all this stuff. I have a d950 it was rooted (cwm kept saying root was lost) and im using the stock ROM. The other day i got an update notification on my phone i kept ignoring it for a few days and one day i turn my phone over and its in CWM. I tried to use the restores that i had created with no luck and somehow ended up erasing my phone as in all the restores and anything else is gone. I have been lurking here for about a week trying different things the phone wont boot to any mode except CWM. First the drivers would not work with the phone ended up having to modify the google usb drivers since the lg ones would not work. I was then able to push stock firmware that i found into the phone but when i try to install it says installation aborted after about a second. I have read that its more then likely because it isnt compatible with my phone but it said it was for the d950. I then tried to enter fastboot with no luck just still cycling between the LG logo or CWM. At this point any help would be appreciated before i give up and have to get another phone.

Install custom/stock rom with locked bootloader and no access to OS

Hi there,
I got a bricked G5S+, which I reported in another thread already.
It was booting, showing the blue Motorola screen but ended up with a lying down android with a red questionmark and saying 'no command'.
That happened after I rebootet the cellphone for a longer time.
I read through a couple of threads and finally decided, I need to flash stock again.
I did not have switched on USB debugging and so on, as the phone was quite new to me and now cannot access android anymore to do so.
Anyway I thought: fine: I will just flash the stock OS again taking care of the software defect.
After having had some issues I flashed Sanders (SANDERS_NPS26.116-26_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml) following that thread here:
https://animetrick.com/flash-stock-rom-moto-g5s-plus-locked-bootloader-2018/
It is quite similar as this thread, which deals with installing a stock OS to a bootloader-locked phone:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-plus/how-to/solution-to-flash-stock-romfactory-t3691396
The thing is I followed all steps but still get the same error:
A lying down android with a red questionmark and saying 'no command'.
Does anyone have an idea what else to try?
I am not aversed to install a custom Rom, such as the official RR v6.0.0, but I have no idea how to do so with a currently bricked phone.
Maybe you guys have a solution for me to unbrick and finally use my phone again.
Thanks a lot!
Regards from Germany

Hey bro Im not sure if you still need help but, if so can you try to boot into a recovery?

Hi Carlos,
yes I still need help.
I can boot into recovery. And fastboot runs and detects the phone, too.
Any idea what I can do?

Go ahead and download twrp from the Roms sections and also begin the process to unlock the boot loader, we can see if it still can be done without having enabled the setting in the developer sections, and if so we can either then flash the recovery and a custom rom or install stock again.
Sent from my iDevice running Smoothshake v11.3.1

I solved my problem:
It was the SD card. I cannot believe it.
I got myself another G5S Plus and swapped everything:
Same issue.
So I removed the memory card and all good again.
There is no need anymore to install a custom rom (at least not currently )
I am quite sad though not having figured that out earlier, becoz all my data is lost now....
Thanks for your help though!

I have fallen into same issue, i cannot install any custom rom or recovery to it but i can access fastboot & one recovery that has update via adb sideload / sd card but nothing works, shows failed line 2 error / install aborted .
the device just showing oem locked in fastboot & rom install or recovery install fails & says cause too many links
the phone starts & stucks after the motorola logo
anybody with any idea?
