Lg L90 TWRP Help - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sigh
So Yet Again im back with a new thread . I actaully bricked my phone and im now getting a replacement LG L90 from T-Mobile that should arrive by tomorrow . After experementing with the L90 i got to the point up to were i flashed TWRP and was able to use the custom recovery . I actaully couldn't find the Xposed zip file for some reason . I tried doing a master reset since i got into a bootloop . And since i dont know much i just decided to go to T-Mobile , Okay so im getting my replacement phone tomorrow .
So What?
Well I was actually asking myself why I couldn't find the Xposed zip file in TWRP . Since you know you need to flash the zip file on lollipop . Okay so im going to attempt to do it again on the new replacement im getting but what is it that I need to do or adjust in order to actually make the zip file appear ? In case of ANOTHER bootloop how do i do a Factory Reset ? Since TRWP did not let me . Did I flash the wrong TWRP.img ?

First of all, once you go to TRWP make a backup
OK, now to flash the xposed.zip just click install and search for the zip, is it on ypur SD card? Did you download it with your phone?
Btw are you using a custom ROM?

No I don't have a custom ROM & what are benefits of making the backup ? Also how do you move the zip to the sdcard ? will I have another bootloop when I flash the xposed zip ?

Well the backup you make at TWRP allows you to restore your phone to the way it was when you backed up, I'm talking about system, apps, data, preferences, everything. So if something goes wrong, it can be reverted
It will work as a factory reset but better
There's also a thread in the forum with a flashable stock-rom a.k.a factory reset
Just use file manager and move it to the SDcard or connect you phone to your pc and place the zip on the sdcard.
About xposed I don't think you'll have trouble, installed on my phone today and seems working fine, I can help you with the procedure
What L90 do you have? d405 d410 d415?
Settings->About phone->model

LG G2 D802 help, deleted dalvik and couldent find rom

Hey guys,
I deleted my Dalvik cache and then couldent find the rom in my folders on the TWRP recovery.
So I pressed just normal reboot and wanted to put them into a folder where I could find them. Only thing is, Im stuck on the LG bootup screen. I did make a nandroid backup but I think I wanted to copy it to my laptop but might have just moved it. Cause there wasent any recovery to do!
So basickly all I can do now is download mode, and I can open up TWRP Recovery, but I can't find the CM 10.2 that I put in my files and there is no recovery to be made from the nandroid cause I think I moved it instead of copying it from my device.
I've downloaded the official firmware KDZ from LG and im trying to install it with the KDZ updater, but I keep getting
Launching SW update
Unpacking KDZ
kdz decrypt error.
Extract file error
===FINISHED===
So what do I do? I really need some help. And please keep in mind that im not some expert, I don't know a lot of the words that people use here.

Hey dude..
First of all this topic is in wrong forum, u should post topics regarding LG G2 issues, in LG G2 device forums..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2
Well then since it already posted this topic, u will find the solution for u problem in this great topic..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
Remember to hit the thanks button in Hyelton's post..
Ive had the excact same problem as u.. and if u take ur time to read it through and do it step by step, then ur phone will be unbricked, and then u can root and push CWM to phone and begin installing a rom and etc..
Btw. i recommend using CWM instead of TWRP.. I havent maneged to complete a rom install in TWRP.. But ive had no issues yet with CWM..
Good luck.
Deleting the dalvik cache will not touch any of your files on the SD card. You might just be looking in the wrong folder, or didn't actually copy it over. If you have the Android sdk installed and it recognizes your phone using adb, then you could always push the file to the phone and then flash it.

[Q] Stuck on clockwork recovery bootloop

So here's the deal, I'm really nervous and stressed because i offered my friend to root and flash cyanogenmod on his sg s3 (i9300 US international) , so i rooted without a problem then copied cyanogenmod and gapps to internal storage. I went to flash both via clockwork recovery, I did everything I was so supposed to do and while flashing cyanogen mode i got install interupted message (along with status 7 or something like that) from that point on i can't get out of clockwork recovery, i tried everything including wiping all data, only 2 screens i can get to are clockwork recovery and downloading mode, I think i should flash stock rom via Odin but I don't know which region version to download because US or UK international aren't option for some reason. I really really need help on this one guys, I'm freaking the hell out. What should I do
thanks

error 7 has to do with old recovery. download the latest cwm (at least 6.0.4.4), twrp or philz touch put it on external sd card and flash it through recovery. restart recovery and you should be able to flash cm11
I don't think you have a nandroid backup?
what do you mean with us and uk versions are no option?

I meant no option as in I can't see it as download option anywhere, only the other regions. Other thing is, odin recognizes S3 while in downloading mode but my computer itself doesn't for some reason. It recognized it before this whole incident (hence files being on the storage) maybe me puting the files on internal storage before was the mistake.Btw no i don't have backup, I guess Im dumb but I didnt think i needed it, thought it was simple process without any complications.

so which cwm version did you use?
if it's an old one try it the way I mentioned above. I would recommend philz touch (can be flashed through cwm) because there you can choose in wipe options to clean to install a new rom and then flash cm11. and you can also make an efs backup if you haven't already done it.
so maybe you do not need to reflash the stock rom

Cool I got the Philz now but there's still the problem of getting different cm or current one into external storage also i cant access the old cm file on philz recovery now, i think it was big mistake putting the files into internal storage instead of external, any idea how to get my pc to recognize the device? it had no problem before the screwup
Don't you have a external sd card reader? Or put your sd card in another phone and copy from there..

[Q] I messed up, no rom?!?!

Hello guys! I think I messed up big time.. I had just rooted my phone and was going to install my new rom (RomAur) from the sd-card (I followed a guide on youtube). Then I used dualrecovery to formate the phone before I installed then phone. But when I did this and my phone rebooted, then I couldn't enter dualrecovery or anything. And my phone is stuck on "SONY". So my guess is that i accidentally deleted my rom... What do I do? .... Im happy for any help I can get! :good:
MOD EDIT
Hi,
I have edited the title of your thread just to make it a bit more acceptable to all eyes. Also, I have deleted your comments about committing insurance fraud. We don't like to see that kind of thing on XDA
Thanks

Have you tryed flashtool and flash back to original state ?
When you formatted the system you deleted the recovery as its in that partition
I simple flash of a stock FTF with flashtool will fix it. Or you can force a repair using Pccompanion.
After that, root, install dual recovery and DO NOT FORMAT SYSTEM when you install the ROM.

No, I very rarely format system as when you install the rom it does that.
But what happened here was he formatted the system and then rebooted. Hence no system and no recovery anymore....

[HOWTO][MT2-L03][Stock ROM with root]Fix soft-bricked phone using TWRP

EDIT on Jan 18,2015
Please see post #9 for a flashable zip of the stock ROM with root that is taken after updated to B148.
Below original post has version B126.
******** ORIGINAL *********
Fix soft-bricked Mate 2 (MT2-L03) phone using TWRP
If you messed up the phone and it came to a state that phone can not boot into android, if you have TWRP installed and have a backup, then you know how to fix that easily.
But if you don't have your own backup, I have upload my system partition so hopefully you can use this to restore your phone. The backup is taken very close to stock, and it is rooted with SuperSU installed.
BTW, there is a "safe mode" boot method, so try that before using twrp recovery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/asc...ted-amazon-app-store-stuck-boot-loop-t2872628 (post 6 and 7)
Steps to Restore you phone if all other ways failed:1. Your MT2-L03 need have bootloader unlocked, and TWRP recovery installed properly. Even your phone is soft bricked, as long as you can boot into bootloader mode, you can still unlock bootloader and install twrp recovery.Unlock bootloader: http://forum.xda-developers.com/ascend-mate2/general/progress-rooting-ham2-t2867975
Install twrp: http://forum.xda-developers.com/asc.../2014-09-22-teamwin-recovery-project-t2885144​2. Boot into twrp recovery and select "System" partition only, and backup it to your external storage (yes, I know your system partition is bad, this step is to create proper twrp backup directory)
3. Download following file to your PC, unzip it.http://tinyurl.com/qzxkm4x
FileName: TWRP_BACKUPS_stock-system-with-root.zip​4. Turn off phone and take out your SD card out and plug into PC, then navigate to following directory under the SDCARD: \TWRP\BACKUPS\xxxxx, the xxxxx is a string that different in each phone
5. Copy all the files unzipped from step 3 to above location. overwrite any files with same name.
6. Put back the SDcard to the phone, and boot into TWRP recovery.
7. Choose restore, select the only entry that you did the backup, and select "System" only, perform the restore.
8. Wipe your dalvik cache, cache.
9. Then reboot.
10. If you still have problem, boot into recovery again, and wipe /data parition as well (Factory Reset).​Download the MT2-L03 backup here:
http://tinyurl.com/qzxkm4x
FileName: TWRP_BACKUPS_stock-system-with-root.zip
And thanks @dbmj unlock bootloader, @Modding.MyMind build twrp recovery, and @D33PTHAWTE confirmation that this fixed his phone.
Glad you got this posted. This will be very vital to many people down the road. And great work on giving instructions to create a backup for the simplicity of automating the needed directories for usage of the actual shared backup. Thumbs up bro.
@D33PTHAWTE, welcome back
For everyone not getting TWRP to work I have done it on 3 HAM2s and all work try this.
1.flash this stock recovery https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B-nJFDpWA4MdVjhEYzU3TXlMZ0U&usp=sharing
2.even if you have your own use that because I know that works and I dont know what yours is.
3.boot into the recovery and make sure that its the stock recovery and its working.
4. restart the phone 2 or 3 times to be safe
5. flash using twrp using 15 second ADB installer.
Has anyone followed thoes steps and that recovery above? (not your own) if not try that and let me know. take a screen shot of what ADB is showing you so I can see that TWRP was successfully installed. Starting at square one. Flash twrp and show me its flashed.

Hi, I have seen these issues pretty frequent recently that:
1) /cust partition is not covered in this TWRP backup, so after restore, you may still got facebook app mismatch failure when upgrade.
2) Even after a successful OTA upgrade, many people (include myself) met problem to reflash the TWRP image.
So, give me a few days, I think I can make a flashable zip that has latest (B148) stock ROM with root, probably this weekend.

This is a clean Stock ROM (flashable zip) with Root after upgrade to B148 for MT2L03.
It should only be used for plain carrier unlocked Huawei MT2-L03. Other varies (carrier locked) MT2L03 is un-tested and may brick your phone.
This ROM include /cust, /firmware, /system and /boot partition.
The official B148 update also contains update to SBL1/ABoot/TZ/RPM partition, they are not included due to risk concern.
I didn't fully test this ROM, I just pickup the image from my early backups. I installed it to my already updated phone and boot up fine. So please try it and let me know if you see any problems.
Working great for me! thank you, fixed all my problems.

Is your phone mt2l03 and bought as unlocked?
Another thing you can try is do a factory reset (to be safe backup /data first) and wipe cache, dalvik cache.

A50 lock screen recovery?

Hi guys, I have a Samsung A50 of my dad which he recently bought from a store. He works on a financial company and while being there he used
this phone to keep his company data which in some cases are also costumer data which he doesn't afford to lose. On an evening night m mischievous little cousin got his phone
and on the try to open the phone to find games he entered a pattern wrong multiple times which made to lock the phone. I have been searching for things to get this phone unlocked but I don't seem
to find any successful methods.
I get to see a `Lockscreen_FIXER.zip` (from 2014, 8 years ago) but I seem to not be able to flash it. I can successfully boot into recovery mode but can not flash it for some reason, I also put the `.zip` file to the `sd card` or tried `adb` with `adb solidate Lockscreen_FIXER.zip` but either that didn't work out as I clicked "apply update with adb" on recovery mode.
Is there any method to bypass this lockscreen only for once at last?! Thanks so much!!
Hey
Im not an expert i want to point out first
But i anyway want to give my opinion in hopes i can help a little bit
First: this isn't the correct place to post troubles like so, you have a safer bet on posting this on "Question & answers"
Second: If its only data and not apps
You can try properly flashing Twrp because unless the file is no longer supported to get past Android 11 lockscreen
Then its the Twrp you installed
Then connect your phone to your pc
If you have the correct drivers you should be able to see your files in file explorer then copy and paste everything important to your desktop
Then in Twrp just Factory reset so you can use your phone once again
If you cant afford to lose your apps as well
Then you're out of luck on that one buddy

Hello @Nashiro10, thanks for your reply. Okay I will ask in the proper place next time.
I see, at this point I care much more about data inside the phone rather than apps. I have a question when it comes to flash ".zip" files. How do I do it? In my recovery mode I got only "Apply Update with adb and sd card" and these two options needs an OTAPACKAGE as an update. Or I can do the flash using Odin while phone is in the "downloading mode"?
Thank you for your time!

If you want to flash Zip files then you have to do it through Twrp (Twrp being a custom recovery which you can find on this section) since its easier and you have a higher chance that if something goes wrong with the install you'll have an error code
And It know hows to handle more custom style of Files so its probably the stock recovery you're using doesn't know how yo work with the zip file you're giving it
And as far as im aware Odin only works to install system important files (STOCK SYSTEM, recoveries, Data, internal data, etc)
And also used to flash Twrp via Odin
BUT!
What i forgot to ask is that if you have OEM unlock activated in developer settings?
If you dont then you're out of choices because you wont be able to flash your zip file and you wont be able to flash twrp
Which leaves you to restoring your phone with Odin
Dont know if you can access your phone's data through the stock recovery
But if you can then do what i said in the first post then factory reset the phone through recovery

If you want to flash Zip files then you have to do it through Twrp (Twrp being a custom recovery which you can find on this section) since its easier and you have a higher chance that if something goes wrong with the install you'll have an error code
And It know hows to handle more custom style of Files so its probably the stock recovery you're using doesn't know how yo work with the zip file you're giving it
And as far as im aware Odin only works to install system important files (STOCK SYSTEM, recoveries, Data, internal data, etc)
And also used to flash Twrp via Odin

No, I don't have OEM unlocked because my dad populated the phone with data in a short time and to do the OEM unlocking you have to factory reset the phone and OEM Unlock. Idk either if I can recover data using adb because I cannot connect the phone with adb(unless I select "apply update using adb").
It seems I don't have so much choices and if I'm forced to do the factory reset then I will do it...
I don't know how some phone service stations can unlock the phone... what do they do lol magic? Because I had another phone which couldn't boot and they fixed it.
