Installing the 5.0.2 OTA while rooted completely and utterly broke my WiFi. No matter what I tried, I couldn't get Wifi to work again. In the end I gave up, and just did a full factory reset from recovery. My recovery version btw is TWRP 2.8.3, and after installing the ZIP ROM update from the first post of this thread TWRP stayed, I didn't have to install it again. So anyways, I let it boot up and then rebooted back to recovery to root on recovery exit, which caused bootloops for a little while until I used Power+VolDown to go back into recovery and installed the SuperSU 2.45 zip from there. NO MORE PROBLEMS! It's just, PERFECT!!! Finally, no more long waits while booting looking at the logo, no more bootloops, and most importantly: by only using the recovery zips to root and never trying to root from the system or allowing it try to update SuperSU from the Play Store, NO WIFI ISSUES, from the very start all is just perfectly functioning, soooo smooth and really fast! FINALLY!!!!!! Really happy here, so remember, for XT1064 TWRP 2.8.3.0, and SuperSU 2.45 should really do the trick. Good Luck!

Hi Guys,
My 900A was running with S5 (Update 4) ROM and Safetrap 3.72 but I decided to try Biggins ROM. I didn't like the interface so I tried another one, RenMar's ROM 1.22.
Wiped my data as usual, loaded the ROM. Successfully updated. Restart the phone and... nothing. I don't see the usual screen from Safestrap but instead, Android recovery with the little android on its back.
It's giving me choice only to apply updates or to wipe data/cache. Odin doesn't work. I can connect to it for about 5~6 seconds by pressing Volume Up at startup but then, it restart and goes back to the little android.
At the top of the screen, I have :
Android system recovery <3e>
KOT49H.N900AUCUCNC2
What I did wrong? Reading the posts, should it be because I tried to "downgrade"? I tried to upload back the S5 (Update 4) ROM. But, of course, it didn't work since you are reading this.
I still have my backup from Safestrap but... can load to Safestrap. Is there a genius who can help me asap. You know what it's like without your phone.
Thanks for any help.

Your on nc2 so that mean your on kit Kat rom n you should install safe trap 3.75 which is for kit Kat rom
FireKat V14 infuse with MegaPower

Knowing that, what should I do to reactivate my phone?

If you had read through the posts in the renmar thread then you would have noticed that there was an issue with the ROM and that many other people ended up in the same boat as you are in now (including me).
You will need to ODIN NC2, then root with towelroot and install safestrap (and busybox I believe). Then you can reboot to safestrap recovery and use your backup.
Here is the link to get to ODIN NC2.
Happy flashing.

Thanks A LOT SAPPS to get me back on track. Those files made the trick. Really appreciated.

[Q] Xposed not running L90 D415 5.0.2

Greetings, all. I'm a big fan of using Xposed modules for my phone, especially YouTube Adaway but since I upgraded via kdz to 5.0.2 this evening I can't get Xposed to run even after reboot using the apk found in the Xposed lollipop thread. I tried to check the log files to be able to post the output here but it won't read those either. Has anyone been able to get this to work and if so, how? Any help is greatly appreciated as the main reasons I root is for ad blocking and titanium backup

My bootloader is still locked so to my knowledge there's not a way to flash a zip without a custom recovery (TWRP, CWM and the like). Maybe I read the thread wrong and you had to both flash the zip and install the apk
Edit: Yes, that is correct, I read it wrong. The zip must be flashed for the framework to install. Is there a way to flash a zip without a custom recovery? This is the first phone I've had with a locked bootloader, all the other ones I just installed a recovery from here and ran/modded it

The L90 of D415 has a unlocked bootloader by deafult, I never unlocked mines and flashed recovery, Just flash this http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-l90/development/recovery-twrp2-7-1-0lgl90w7xxshoxx-t2826150 using Flashify, download the img and open Flashify and select flash recovery then select that image and in that app you should be able to reboot to recovery to flash the xposed zip. Since I've never tried it I dont know how well xposed runs on stock lollipop remember to backup.

Thank the gods for that then! I am leaving tomorrow on a trip and need my phone fully functional for the duration (hooray GPS) so just to be safe I'm going to hold off on flashing the custom recovery until I get back on Monday and will also flash the Xposed framework then as well and report back. Thanks for the help! I will update this thread after flashing just in case others are looking for this to say whether or not it worked.

Hello,
I was able to get xposed running well on 5.0.2. However i didnt flash stock kdz, I flashed a modified stock ROM found in the development section (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-l90/development/rom-l90-d415-lollipop-xtreme-v1-0-4-25-t3092813)
After flashing the ROM as described in the link above, i rebooted to recovery. I then flashed the xposed zip file. After that, I wiped cache and dalvik cache (VERY IMPORTANT to avoid any storage errors). Finally I did a normal boot, and it installed perfectly. Hope this helps! Best of luck my friend

Sorry for late response
Turns out my boot loader was in fact unlocked. TWRP through Flashify and then install the zip through there, then install the apk and reboot again. Thank you both so much for the information!

Correction

While Xposed installed and worked it also soft bricked my phone in that I kept getting "unfortunately com.android.phone stopped working". Not sure if it's the program itself or the fix memory leak module I installed. Thankfully I had a backup right before I flashed that zip and it appears my phone is working again. Not sure if I will try to install it again without the memory leak patch or not. Thoughts?

Sadly, this also led me to restore my stock, modded KK backup. What I found to be a temporary fix is to wipe cache/data for the phone apk as well as the SIM Toolkit, then reboot. It appears fixed for some time, but then reappears. This problem seems to arise whenever you use wifi or mobile data, and goes away when you switch them off (at least that was my experience).
I think that the main culprit is the Xposed framework itself. I was told by others it's not fully compatible on stock LP for the L90, but still tried it either way. I got too many mods I like to not use Xposed, so I rolled back to kk. If you can live w/o Xposed then try LP with no framework and see what happens. Best of luck!

How sad I will continue to monitor the Xposed threads then to see if/when it's fully functional with stock Lollipop.
I was in panic mode with my phone yesterday not working because it happened right when my car decided to also quit working so I saw those possible fixes as well and neither worked. Thankfully I backed up through TWRP right before I flashed the Xposed zip so that save my butt,

Perhaps the dumbest ROOT question ever?!?!

This has probably been said 1000 times before, but, I'm an idiot.
Now that we got that out of the way, perhaps you fine folks will help a dummy out?
About a year ago, I followed this guide and was successful in all that it deals with (unlocking bootloader, root, installing custom recovery and flashing custom rom).
My phone started acting a little buggy lately, (probably because I had less than 5 gb of space left? ) so I decided I wanted to just wipe everything and start "fresh".
I went into TWRP, wiped EVERYTHING, (wipe/advanced wipe/checked everything (dalvick,system,data,internal,cache) rebooted into recovery, sideloaded the newest Pure Nexus ROM and GApps zips, flashed both. After flashing new ROM, tried to reboot system, a message appeared saying it appears I do not have supersu installed, would I like to install it now? or something to that effect.
I wiped for"yes", phone turned off, then was stuck on the animation screen (swirling/color dot things) when tying to boot up.
Hold power button down till shut off, then restarted in recovery, wiped EVERYTHING (again), re-flashed the ROM, only this time said "no" to the supersu install screen.
Phone loaded up and is running perfectly.
However, I am no longer rooted???
I wasn't aware wiping everything in TWRP would remove root.
I'm confused because as I already said, I'm a dummy!, but when following the guide, I should root, then install a custom recovery.
My question is, do I only need to concern myself with the one step for rooting with CF-Root
since I already have a recovery installed, or am I going to need to re-install TWRP after rooting and then re-flashing the ROM and GApps?
I'm sure you folks are probably sick and tired of fools like me who just blindly follow along with XDA's [HOW TO] threads without knowing what or why we are doing what we are doing, but I appreciate you all just the same!
Any advice is appreciated!
Thanks in advance.

Boot back into TWRP and reflash SU

That's correct. No in twrp - is needed when there is already a SU in the flashed rom.
Probably you have not the most recent version of twrp.
In play store there are apps to check if you have root acces.
You can also go to the launcher and start the superSU app

I'm not generally a stupid person, but this stuff can sure make a girl blush!
Thank you.
Worked like a charm.
Falling in love all over again with my Nexus 6.
.....makes note for NEXT TIME I have been eating dummie bears!

As NLBeev said, you are probably using an outdated version of TWRP. It doesn't ask about su any longer.

Help needed - Samsung J5-sm10fn (touchwiz) stuck booting into TWRP recovery

So I tried installing Xposed Framework by flashing it's ROM, but after I did it, I rebooted my phone, but every time I do it, it always boots into TWRP recovery. I tried fixing it by looking in the setting and I used a backup I made before doing all this crap and I restored, but my phone still boots only into TWRP recovery mode. I would really appreciate it if anyone could help me. Thanks.
PS. My phone is rooted and it has TWRP

Is it possible that you used the wrong Xposed for your device or SDK version? I can't imagine that restoring a backup didn't fix it. Did you try wiping system in TWRP first?
Things you can try:
- Flash the "Xposed Uninstaller" zip file in TWRP, which should always be on your device when you are flashing new versions of Xposed.
- Reflash TWRP in Odin. This should fix a recovery loop.
- Wipe system, data, dalvik, cache in TWRP, then try restoring your backup.
- As a last resort, you can download the latest stock firmware for your device from the sammobile site, flash it in Odin, let it boot once, reflash TWRP, wipe in TWRP and restore your backup (if you were running a custom rom you liked or something), then flash the correct Xposed for your device & android version.
Hope this helps!

Hello. I already tried zipping the uninstaller for xposed but it did nothing, I also tried wiping dalvik cache and all, but no luck. I also think that my backups are just not functional. Now I'm left to just reflashing TWRP and if that doesn't work I'll have to flash the original stock firmware for my phone. I have spent already 2 days with constant searching for ways to fix my phone and not being able to do other things because this has been taking up my time and my patience, so I really appreciate every bit of fixing my phone that I get. Since I am new to all this I would be very grateful if you could send me the links to the correct files for my device and also give me a tutorial on what to do. As I appreciate any support, so I'm thankful for you helping me But until then my device is still not able to boot regulary but rather boots to TWRP

Update:
I fixed my phone, and here's what I did, so if anyone is new here with the same issue I had, I hope this can help you. So first of all as I said I kept booting to TWRP, later I tried reflashing TWRP, but I remembered that I missed something in ODIN, so I just pulled the cord and my screen after rebooting just said something along the lines of "An unexpected error occurred while updating software, please recover using Samsung Smart Switch." after that, I tried Samsung Smart Switch, but it was no luck for me, so then I used the last resort. I went on sammobile.com, I searched stock firmware for the exact model I had and then I checked the stock firmware that was available. Since I'm from Latvia, I picked the Baltic region, then I downloaded the latest stock firmware. After a long time, I downloaded the file, and I checked the instructions on how to flash it, I flashed the stock firmware, and then my problem was fixed, my phone was working again and now I have Android 7.1.1 as I used to have Android 6.0.1 and I had ZERO file loss However as you flash the stock firmware, TWRP get "flashed" out and same with root if you have it, and in that case if you want TWRP and root again, I highly suggest Meziani's YoutTube channel, because he gives simple and working tutorials on how to do it I'm glad if this helped anyone.
