Long story short... i installed CM10 on my LG P970H v25A, and the network stopped working, cannot read IMEI, the SIM is not recognized...
Then i installed CM10.1 nigtlybuild 20130424 and the same behaviour. Started to think my phone wont accept the CM.
Forget all about QPST, IMEI injection, USB and diag menu, hyper terminal, NV tool and the EFS backup, etc... none of these will work... belive me, i did them all...
I made a little mistake that let me discover a procedure to fix my network. The problem is that i need to do it every time the phone reboots.
1-Restart your phone in recovery mode (i do it with the "advanced reboot" option en CM because cannot find any key combination for that).
2-Do a cache wipe.
3-Enter in advanced and do a Dalvik cache wipe.
4-Do a Fix permissions.
5-Go back and reboot system.
The phone will boot and start some "upgrading process". It will take some minutes but will start.
After boot, sometimes take some minutes, sometimes in seconds, but it will connect. Sometimes it dont connect, but i repeat the process and finally it works (sometimes i need to do the step 4 twice).

Did you already try to simply do a fix permissions in ROM Manager? Then reboot and give it a shot, cause cache and dalvik shouldnt have an effect on it. And maybe make a nandroid when it is not working and one when it is working and do a diff on those files. Maybe you can see, what causes the faulty behaviour
Oh and did you already play with basebands?

I think you are using a P970 ROM in a P970H phone, which are different in terms of radio. So, it is better to you to start looking for a ROM specific to your phone.
"p970h is for latin america and gets 3G in 850/1900/2100 mhz while p970 gets 3G in 900/1700/2100 mhz"
Flash a 30x baseband.

Everytime it reboots i need to do the procedure or it wont connect.
Hello,
I did a reboot and now I can't use my phone anymore. I see the Boot animation but after the Boot up, the screen just turns black. I receive notifications and active display is working, also I can start my camera with the twist but I can't take picture because the touchscreen does not respond. On active display or the power off pop up, the touchscreen is working. So I did a cache partition wipe but this hasn't fixed my problem. The strange thing is that after a couple of frustrated reboots, the Boot animation changed to the old animation with the spinning world. I want to reset the phone via recovery but first I need to backup my data. I have very important Data on my phone like whatsapp log or Photos and videos.. I can't connect my phone to the computer because I have a pin... How I can Backup my data and what caused the black screen?
If your bootloader is unlocked you can flash TWRP. TWRP has the ability to decrypt userdata if you have the password. I don't know if it can decrypt the moto x or not, because TWRP only officially support ASOP type encryption, if motorola uses a different technique for encryption it will say the password is wrong. If it works you can browse and backup files from TWRP recovery.
If it says the password is wrong or you don't have the bootloader unlocked, then you are SOL and have lost everything.
In either case doing a factory reset will hopefully fix your issue.

So I did a factory reset now. But I stuck in Bootloop, i just see the M logo. How I can fix it? And no, my Moto X is stock like out of the Box.

After the factory reset bootup takes longer than normal, how long did you wait?
If that is not the case, what model moto x do you have? For example mine is xt1095. Also what version of android do you have? 5.0, 4.4.4, 5.0.2, 5.1, etc?

same issue today
also have the same issue, black screen after reboot. moto voice, active display/notifications are responsive, camera too when twisting the phone. moto voice says "unlock your phone to continue" but i currently don't have any screen locks or anything, just swipe. i have a pure edition running on 5.1. Skeptical about a reset since the phone is still responsive.. tried looking for other fixes, but looks like this issue is just coming up today...
This exact same thing happened to me. Updated to 5.1 about a week ago via the OTA. Wiping cache did nothing. Diagnosing it as a software issue, I attempted to sideload the official 5.1 OTA that's posted elsewhere in the forums. It came back as installation aborted, so I gave up on any hope of keeping my data and did a factory reset. Now all it does is bootloop, sometimes settling on the prone android no command screen for a little while. I can boot into recovery and the bootloader, but thats it. Really hoping someone can come up with a solution. XT1096.

I've waited about 30 minutes, in this time my phone just bootet into the recovery by his self. I've contacted Motorola and I'll send my device to repair.
It's a xt1092 with 5.1 RETDE.
I personally think that this issue is caused by the Boot animation update.

Have you tried reflashing the system image from the bootloader?
is that possible without adb? If so, can you tell me how?

You still do everything through terminal. You have to cd to your folder that has adb and fastboot enclosed, usually platform-tools. Instead of starting each command with "adb", you'll start with "fastboot" and you'll be flashing these while your phone is at the fastboot screen.
The full image files are in the forums, and all the commands you'll need, in order, are posted in this thread earlier
I have found that some time the fastboot from Moto wouldn't recognize the phone. I, then, use the mfastboot-v2 found somewhere around this forum works great.
Me too faced this problem few days back. Only option left to do was factory reset.
Read below just to go through of what i faced:
( I had gone through bunch of articles for restoring my data but i had a pin lock because of which while connecting to pc it couldnt detect phone.
Other things i tried includes flashing lockscreen bypass zip via stock recovery. There i faced signature verification failed error because i had done it through stock recovery where it doent let u toggle signature verification on/off as in CWM. )
And for those who wants their data back , i found many articles of data recovery after factory reset. But it needed your device to be rooted. All you have to do is after factory reset dont make use of phone and after rooting you can recover your phone by software as EASEUS android recovey, Dr fone android recovery. Thats all .
I am too facing this issue as of last night,, I have the verizon version (complete stock, no root, locked bootloader) and I am not sure how to go about fixing this without losing all my data.. I tried wiping cache but it did nothing.. Can anyone provide some kind of troubleshoot guide please? It would be much appreciated.
A friend of mine is also having the same issue.
I tried the 5.0 image and it won't flash.
I'm locked and without root. Is it even possible to flash even the factory images? (And yes, I've tried to go to the Customer Portal for the Moto X and that isn't giving me anything)
Edit: Finally got it to flash the stock image. Didn't help. Factory reset fixed things.
Note: I had this problem and was able to fix it through a factory reset, but I had to do it through minimal adb and fastboot. The bootloader factory reset option didn't work.
I am having the exact same issue. Has anybody had a luck resolving it short of a factory reset?
My phone battery died last night. I plugged my phone in, let it get about 15% charge, then tried to turn it back on. The phone boots like normal, but after the boot animation goes away, the screen is black. Active notifications still seem to work, and I can hold the power button to get the Power Down option. I can boot into the bootloader & access recovery just fine. However, my phone is fully stock (no root, no bootloader unlock, no anything). I can't seem to access ADB when the phone is powered normally (ie, when I'm at this mysterious black screen), but it's possible that USB debugging isn't even enabled.
So far, I've found a bunch people who've said a full factory reset will fix the problem, but I'm looking for another solution, or at least a way to grab my data before I reset. Since my bootloader's still locked, I can't seem to use fastboot boot to boot into TWRP, and I can't find any other way to access my data to copy it off the phone. I've tried wiping the cache using the stock recovery to no avail. Any suggestions?
Moto X 2014: unrooted with bootloader unlocked. It's running Stock 5.1 and I haven't messed with anything on it. I gave it to my Dad after a few months of using it, so I factory reset it and gave it to him, 2 weeks later he tells me it has stopped working. It boots up normally, but from then on it is black, I can access minor parts of the OS such as the power off menu, the camera (by shaking) and Moto Display, but everything else doesn't work. I have never seen anything like this before, and I am well accustomed to flashing custom ROMs and rooting Android. If it comes down to it I will factory reset it or flash stock, but I can't even plug it into my PC and retrieve any files. Anyone have any idea whats gone wrong?
I have attached a video demonstrating what's happened to help diagnose the problem.

If you search the forum here for "black screen" it has happened to other people as well on stock 5.1. Supposedly the fix is a factory reset.

Unfortunately I couldn't retreive any data from the phone, I can confirm however that a factory reset does fix the issue. The Android automatic backup does work in the broken state so I did manage to restore my settings and apps. But the internal sd card was wiped upon factory reseting. Just an idea of the top of my head: Try running adb backup and see if that works, and then unlocking the bootloader, flashing twrp, restoring the backup, and finally transfering the internal sd card data to a mounted drive using twrp. Thats just a stab in the dark and i dont have the phone on me to test it. Give it a try and lets hope Motorola will fix this bug soon.
Ok, thanks. I did try adb backup, but adb won't recognize the device when it's "booted" & sitting at the blank screen, and the stock recovery doesn't give full adb access. I'm currently looking into the various data recovery options to maybe pull some stuff off after reseting. It's really only a few files that I need, so maybe that will work?

Unfortunately the internal SD card mounts using MTP and not like a flash drive, so using the usual methods through Windows to recover wont work. However you could try and restore your internal sd card using this solution: http://goo.gl/OKdV14
As for accessing adb through recovery, you could try this method: http://goo.gl/5T7bhq
Hopefully one of these methods should work, so you can at least recover some of your files.
I had the same problem today. I tried to backup a twrp backup I have made few weeks ago but I still had the black screen. The only solution is to factory reset...
Happily I could have saved my data when I was on TWRP. Anyone knows how to restore sms from the data I have saved ?
Hi all,
My wife just bought the G780G.
I configured her device using Samsung smart switch, and used it to transfer settings, apps and data from her old S8 (first time I did it, usually I prefer to start a new device from scratch...) .
She says she has an issue with the device - sometimes, while using it, the screen flickers...
I didn't see it exactly and she didn't manage to reproduce it to show me, but she says it happens to her quite a lot.
Anyone familiar with this issue?
Any solution you know of?
Thanks!
long shot, if she uses chrome try updating it and android webview along with it. there was an issue months back where that caused system wide flickering and some apps not to work.

I updated Chrome.
No update was needed for Android web view.
Unfortunately it didn't help.
The issue persisted today...
I suspect 2 things:
1. A firmware update that was done yesterday morning (my wife doesn't remember if she encountered it before, she have the phone for 2 days...)
2. Restoring data using smart switch - it can cause issues? I restored the data from her old S8.
Can it be that some corrupted data was transfered?
I'm thinking of factory reseting her device and let her start from scratch..
What do you think?
before you reset try booting to recovery and clearing cache. if there was an update it could be the cache. if it doesn't help then yeah reset is the next option.

Thanks man
How exactly to boot to recovery?
I tried after watching several YouTube videos but had no luck...
Edit : looks like something is messed up with this phone.
I'm not able to boot into recovery.
Doing this:
Turn off device
Press volume up + power button simultaneously.
As soon as I see the Samsung fe logo - I release the buttons - the phone boots regularly...
Booting this phone to recovery is a bit tricky:
1. Shut down phone and wait for a couple of seconds
2. Connect an USB cable to PC and phone
3. Push and hold louder button
4. Push power button until recovery mode will be shown
I prefer ADB:
ADB DEVICES
ADB REBOOT RECOVERY
I press volume up plus power simultaneously while inserting the connected USB cable.
Thanks guys!
Managed to do it after connecting to my laptop.
Just wiped the cache partition - hope it'll help..
Well unfortunately it didn't help.
The screen still flickers.
I'll factory reset the phone.
Hope it'll help and it's not a hardware issue...
consider also reflashing the current firmware. there's even a way to do that that doesn't involve wiping your apps. using the HOME_CSC file will keep your user data intact. then if that yields no results you can try a factory reset.

Hope it is not a hardware issue. Because my old s5 and pretty all samsung s5 have screen flickering problem especially in cold weather.
Hi, sorry for the bad english. My Xiaomi Note 11 worked perfectly fine for months since I bought it, but last night I accidentally left it charging for the whole night and when I woke up, it suddenly rebooted to recovery mode. I rebooted it back to system, which reboots the phone as usual, then I unlocked the lockscreen, everything went perfectly normal, until it rebooted again to recovery mode. I tried rebooting again, but it rebooted again to recovery mode after I unlocked the lockscreen. I tried booting it to safemode, but it went the same way. However, when I leave the lockscreen unlocked, it doesn't reboot itself. I tried turning it off and rebooting it with the screen unlocked but it did nothing. Do you guys ever have the same problem? Is there any way to fix it without wiping the data? I have some banking apps and other data that would be difficult to recover if I were to wipe out the phone.
I have the same problem too, I think it might have to do with the new update Xiaomi pushed to European devices in the last few days. We'll have to wait and see if they push a fix/if we find a fix...
Exact same problem, started appearing today. This is so weird. I already wiped data and the problem persists; went thorough the setup with no issue, and as soon as I finished it and the phone goes to the main screen, after a few seconds it started appearing again.

47 minutes since i wiped the data by the second time and my phone its working, I don't know until when.
Does anyone know of way to save the data? Surely it must be accessibl.

I found a way to do so. The problem is that once the phone is unlocked you have a few minutes before it gets booted into recovery mode. So:
Step 1) Have the phone connected to a computer before booting it up, with file explorer in the "this pc" category (where the phone storage will appear)
Step 2) boot the phone and input the password (if any)
Step 3) QUICKLY pull down the notification bar and press the usb options notification
Step 4) QUICKLY press the second option for file transferring
Step 5) QUICKLY open phone storage from pc once it pops up (at this point the phone screen will probably be black with a white loading circle but the phone storage is still accessible!!! You now have a few minutes to transfer any data you want)
Step 6) QUICKLY search through phone storage for any important data and copy/paste it to your computer
Sooner or later the phone will be booted to recovery mode and the mi logo will appear and the phone storage will disappear from the computer so repeat above steps until all your data is backed up.
If a file transfer gets stopped while running, copy/paste the data again on the next "run" and choose to ignore files that are already copied. With this method I managed to backup all my photos and files before wiping the phone.
This problem might be due to a problematic firmware update. My phone was running MIUI version 13.0.12(RGKEUXM) (europe version). I wiped the data and updated my phone to version 13.0.13(RGKEUXM) after setting it up just in case. I will update this thread if the problem reappears.
I am running RGCMIXM (13.0.16.0) and have encountered the issue. Really annoying. Did the wipe all and had no success. I hope someone can help find a fix. No feedback on the issue i logged thru the feedback app to Xiaomi.
