keeps rebooting (sprint version)
I'm at a loss. Since unlocking my bootloader, flashing TWRP and installing CM11, this is the second Sense rom that doesn't work for me. (unlocked bootloader, s-on, Sprint HTC One Max)
Just as with Adrenaline, I'm able to successfully flash the rom in TWRP and it boots to the HTC setup menu. But shortly thereafter the phone reboots. After that it seems to reboot every 90 seconds. I can't reflash Cm11 without a problem. But as soon as I flash this or Adrenaline the reboot problem reoccurs. Anyone know what I'm ****ing up?

I sent you a PM, but figured I would also respond here. Make sure that the version of TWRP that you are using is from Fly's thread here on XDA:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2498746
If you are using TWRP from Fly's thread, make sure you are not wiping System when flashing the ROM since this is done automatically.
Hope this helps you.

Hi, thanks for the reply.
I've tried both 2.8.0.1 and 2.8.1.0 from that thread you linked. I have followed the instructions in your OP. I only do the swipe to wipe, I don't do any advanced wiping. I think I'm missing something somewhere. The phone starts fine and boots into Android. Once I'm there it reboots after a minute or so. What could cause such an issue?
CM11 flashes perfectly fine and works too except for the lack of Spark and the Wifi profile reset. This is really strange.

Did you ever flash an unsecured kernel?

Hmm I don't think so. All I did was unlock the bootloader on HTC's website. Then I followed Cyanogen's instructions to put CM11 on there. After I was dissatisfied with the LTE/Wifi issues I tried flashing the Adrenaline rom. When that didn't work I tried yours.
I should mention that I did buy this phone earlier this year on ebay. Supposedly new. Is there a way to find out if the previous owner did flash a different kernel?

I would suspect this to be your problem. After you did your initial flash of TWRP, you created a backup of your phone and saved it...correct?
I am on your sprint version on the ROM and love it. It has been my daily driver for a while but i have one problem.m I have not been able to get LTE to allow me to use wifi tethering at all.. every time I try the LTE signal comes and goes and never stays connected so i can only use 3g which isnt all that bad when i have a good signal, but when I know LTE is available to use itnwould be nice to get full speed from my phone.
I hope this ROM may come to International GSM model too.. :good::good::good:

Hey I just wanted to let you know that I solved my problem in case someone else experiences the same issue. The problem ended up being the SuperSU included in the rom. It was causing the 60/90 second reboot. As soon as I let it update the binaries the reboots stopped.
thanks for all tbe help.

Thanks for the update on what resolved your problem. As I'm learning, i found files i was missing when including SU in the ROM. The newer releases should not have these issues... Sorry for any inconvenience.

I picked up a Huawei GR5 when my current phone went belly up. Was going to flash CM13 on it, but I noticed that my (Canadian) phone is model kii-l05, and I can't find any info on whether I can install CM13 on this model. Will be very sad if I'm stuck with the Huawei SW....

Yes, it's running MM. This phone was sold by Rogers locked, and has since been unlocked. From what I can tell the difference between this and a KII-L21 is that the L05 is not listed as dual sim, despite appearing to have the same HW. It must be firmware limited to only use the usim.

I've read here that it works. You will need to do some build.prop editing because your device is single-sim.

Thanks. This is a bit scary since the only time I've flashed CM onto a device it was a Nexus and was super easy. I think I need to make sure I know how to get back to normal MM if I mess this up before I try.

Yeah, in general it's not recommended to flash firmware that's not specifically supported for your device. Luckily, someone else has already taken the risk for you

Well, I decided to try this today on my KII-L05, but started with just the plain CM13 download. Surprised a bit, but it worked fine on my device without me changing anything, calls, LTE, Wifi, Bluetooth, camera all appear to be fully functional. Only thing is my device doesn't know its device model anymore in the settings, which seems of no importance.

Hi Jemez,
I just got the KII-L05 also. How is the phone working for you since you flashed it?
Can you point me to the procedure you used to root?

It was ok until today. I tried to do an OTA update, and it hung on the boot screen. From what I'm seeing in the forum, this looks like a known issue with not using CM13 recovery.
I didn't root, I just unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP, did a full backup onto an external SD card, and then flashed the new ROMs onto it. The backup on the SD made life much easier today when it hung, I was easily able to revert to the original OS, make sure everything was ok, and now I've swapped to Resurrection remix.
I flashed CM13 last night on my KII-L05, boy what a difference. Very snappy!
One hiccup did occur when I installed the latest nightly via TWRP. I received an Error 7 when installing. It stated that the package was for kiwi where my device was "."
Googled around and learned that the update_script in the CM13 install package is validating the device model / variant.
Essentially I had to remove the "assert" lines validating the model in the update_script.
After that, install was successful.
By any chance do you still have your backup? I can't seem to get mine to work.

For CM and LineageOS there is no need to do an edit of build.prop. Init will detect the variant just fine and set the props by itself. Currently the variant is not supported on CM13, will include it at least tomorrow, just got the necessary info today. After that, updates won't require editing the install script anymore because model will be set as well. Next time please inform us in the thread, we were not aware of that model at all.
i think, lineage 14.1 is now available for canadian version, check out guys..there is an announcement in the thread

Yes and if you would read the thread before posting, you would have seen
a) I answered them already
b) This thread is about CM13, not CM/LineageOS 14.1 and i have not yet added support to CM13...
Which specific Lineage 14.1 should I use for KII-L95? is it the honor 5x? does it requires additional steps to do?

I temp rooted mine with dirty cow, however it gained me very little. There are three main obstacles: 1) SELinux prevents most things from working, because each program runs within a tight security context, 2) using dirty cow causes the kernel to not save changes to the partition (it doesn't want to write a corrupted partition to disk), in other words a r/w /system is useless, even when you can finally write to it, 3) using dirty cow on the most attractive programs (from a permissions perspective) causes "little" problems like the screen going off.
I've been monitoring another XDA thread (sorry, link is at home) where they are working through these issues on another device. There are various approaches and workarounds, but they currently all involve way more risk than I can justify for a $500 phone.
AIUI, once you've got root, you need to be able to put selinux into permissive mode, but surely getting temp root is a start?
Can you not install systemless root?
If I got the dates right, the phone kernel should be affected by this bug. A proof of concept seemed to be promised by the reporter in the next few days. http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2016/q4/607
Will be interesting to see how it compares to dirty cow as far as access.

Please note that the phone is 64-bit. This is source code that requires compilation and additional code to do anything useful. Prerequisites include the NDK and related build tools installed via Android Studio. I run Linux so it was relatively painless, but I imagine it might be more of a challenge under Windows.

thanks, I tried that out of curiosity on my phone and it worked (Lollipop, stock Sony Xperia Z Ultra ROM).

Hi. I know this thread is about the Lenovo Phab2 Pro and I have the Lenovo Phab2 but maybe someone can help me. I tried what was suggested on this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/phab-2/how-to/how-to-root-phab-2-pb2-650y-t3524305 But it seems I screwed up and now the phone gets stuck in the Lenovo sign. I'd really appreciate some help since I just bought this phone 2 days ago and now I can't use it. I can access TWRP but it seems there's nothing in /system. I think maybe that's the problem. I'm no expert but since I had rooted and downgraded and upgraded firmware several times on my previous phone, a LG G3. I thought maybe I could do this. I shouldn't have If someone can help me I'd really appreciate. Thanks in advance.
I was able to fix this. Sorry to have bothered.
Hi,
I've been able to get proper root access on this phone. One new problem I am facing is that the tango camera and sensors doesn't seem to work. Normal camera works just fine.
Is this related to the rooting or can it be anything else entirely?
Edit: Never mind. I was able to fix it without having to remove the root. Apparently 'Tango Core' didn't have permissions to access camera. I am not sure how that got reset. So I gave access to it and now it works just fine.

The links you have will work ok... There is no official TWRP yet that I am aware of just as there are no official ROMs (that I know of) there are however unofficial Lineage and Paranoid Android ROMs, and unofficial TWRP
There is a tool from LG that will preform bootloader unlock
I hope this helps

Question to y'all,
I'm trying to gain init.d script support. Tried the universal init.d app, but if force closes every time I open it. Is there anything flashable that would grant init.d support?
Thanks!
I accidentally stumbled upon a very simple way to install magisk (root).
Prerequisites
1: Bootloader unlocked
2: crDroid recovery
Boot to fastboot, install crDroid recovery on both slots. Boot to recovery. Sideload magisk.zip, reboot and profit!
Idk if crDroid recovery has to be installed on both slots, but I flashed it to both slots. Also, I used magisk 24.1 apk. I changed "apk" to "zip" then sideloaded it in crDroid recovery. I did it on the latest security update 11.0.1.18 and it seems to work flawlessly. Even passed safetynet. I would assume that technique will work on any version, but don't hold me to that. BTW, I used crDroid 12.1 recovery. Here's the files I used, https://drive.google.com/file/d/12sFTVOcu_Q5qfYG2bm9Z3ji3I5f2b_6-/view?usp=drivesdk
Here's a sloppy video of the process. Pretty simple

Sorry about the sloppy video, I didn't plan it out at all, I just grabbed my phone and started recording. But I'm really glad my technique was able to help someone else

A lot of people can benefit from your method. I was on a different Official ROM version, yet this method worked. I suggest you make a good video with proper screen recording if possible, for the community. I was able to flash a custom rom because of you. Thanks again @BobbyLynn . Consider making an official guide/video. It'll help a lot of people.

I'll probably do a "take 2" video today. I really should've planned it out before recording the video the other day. But obviously I just "winged" it I didn't even know I hadn't unlocked the bootloader yet So y'all got to see all of my little "mishaps" (that we all go through occasionally) but other than that everything still worked out exactly like I said it does.

Here's that "proper" video. There's no commentary in it, but I did add music to make it more fun to watch And the detailed instructions are listed in the details on YouTube.

Actually I probably should've put the fastboot screen in with it while I was running the commands, but surely to God even newbies will know to have their phone connected to their PC while running those commands And just in case they don't know, I made sure to put that "tip" at the top of the details

That's a bit more tricky. You would need to change the IMEI number, but you'd be treading in dangerous waters when you start tinkering with the IMEI number.
