Wrong Test Keys - OTA update failed

Hi Guys,

so this morning my SW3 told me there was a system update, cool, so i said yes to the update and let it do its thing.

on coming back, the os version was still the same (LDZ22D) which i thought was odd.

I then did a search and found that there was indeed a new version out (LCA43) and thought something sus was afoot.

I got the twrp from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/smar...-easy-t3107501 and booted from twrp

i then pushed the rom i downloaded form here http://www.xperiablog.net/2015/08/21...e-watch-faces/ and promptly tried to flash it like i would any custom rom i would normally flash on any of my other android devices.

I got an error, saying it was expecting "test keys" from a LAZ22D device or a LWX49K device, and that I had LRX22G test keys.

I also tried an ADB sideload which also didn't work.

Am i doing something wrong? Has anyone else ever encountered this?

Full disclosure, I also installed supersu a few months ago, but have had many factory resets since then (new roms on the paired fone) which i wouldn't have thought was an issue?

Cheers for any help you can give :confused:

Camera failed to launch

When I try to launch the camera app or any app that requires the camera I get the following message "camera failed to launch, please reboot your device"

Model Number ASIS_Z00AD
I'm running stock ww_2.20.40.59...
I have restarted the device.
I have un installed and reinstalled the camera app (from the beta down to stock, then back to beta).
I have wiped the cache in the app.
Deleted the data in the app.
Installed google camera.

Still nothing working.

Before I do a fill cache wipe or a system wipe, is there anything else I should try?

Galaxy S4 Sprint Encryption failed - stuck on Reset Device

Hello all,
First, forgive me if the steps I followed below don't make any sense, I don't really know much if what I am / was doing. Anyway:

I have a Galaxy S4 from sprint, L720
I'm about to sell my phone, and I few months ago I rooted it following this procedure using odin:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gala...5-0-1-t3105760
Not too much to say here, this is just more of a background information.

Anyway, Because I'm selling my phone, I wanted to make sure my information was deleted securely form the device, and found that many people said it should be encrypted.
I tried to do that, and after a couple of hours of the phone stuck on a blank screen, I removed the battery and restarted it.
Now I have a screen that says "Encryption failed" - "Reset Device", only the button to reset it, does nothing.
I follow that guide again, installed that rom again.
I also have twrp, did factory reset, wiped all the data, and still, when I boot, I get that same message.
I have also tried to backup the data (after the debacle), restore it and factory reset the phone.
This leaves the phone stuck on the very first screen, "Samsung Galaxy S4", which maybe a good sign or not.
Any ideas?

CWM backup failed on Samsung Galaxy S5 G900H

I have rooted my samsung galaxy s5 g900h version and installed CWM ( g900h-cwm-recovery-6.0.4.7.tar) custom recovery on it.

When I start my phone in recovery mode I get two problems
1) It doesnt detect my external sd card (I have 2 fat32 partitions of 40GB & 20GB created from the app "Apart" available on the google playstore). {It detects internal memory as sd card}{Unfortunately TWRP or Philz(the link is not working , I tried from another link but after installing my phone freezes on the boot image) is not available for S5 G900H variant so I have to continue with CWM }

2)If i start backup it says "Error while making a backup image of /data!"
{I dont know if space is a problem , I had 2 GB of free space but I deleted some apps on my internal memory to make 4.5 GB of free space but still the problem persists} {I do get insufficient space error after rebooting if I dont delete the backup but CWM doesnt recognise my sd card also so I have to write on phone memory}

LMY48I OTA Failed

I got the LMY48I OTA update today but it's failed, after a reboot I've cleared the cache and checked for updates and it's no longer available. Will the update be re-pushed to my device eventually or am I stuck having to sideload it now?

Looking for help with failed flash.

Hi. I have a Xperia Z1 C6903 (honami) and I tried to install Cyanogenmod on it by following this tutorial:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_honami
What I did:
1. Unlocked bootloader, had no problems with that.
2. Went to fastboot, flashed over Boot.img, after that I couldn't get to recovery (probably because I didn't install it first)
3. Tried another Boot.img for the Free Xperia project, after that my device had a flashing red light.
4. Reflashed the previous CM Boot.img back.
3. I was told to install recovery, so I installed TWRP (Still couldn't get to recovery mode)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xper...onami-t3074845

Now I've downloaded Flashtool along with a general FTF file, my next plan was to flash the whole thing, but I'm asking if there was something I did wrong and how to fix up this mess?

Right now by going into recovery mode I get stuck at Sony logo, tried waiting 10 minutes but nothing.

Failed to mount /data and frozen after factory reset, HELP!

I have what's probably a unique situation, though I hope not. For background info, I bought two I747s, one white and one blue, each with issues, but I intended to put parts together to end up with one good one.

When I did a factory reset on the blue one via the recovery menu, it returned a bunch of errors along the lines of "failed to mount /data." Then when it rebooted it would hang on the Samsung logo. Back in recovery mode it returns more of the same errors just booting into recovery mode, and factory reset still returns more of the same errors and doesn't fix anything. I flashed 4.3 with Odin in an attempt to fix it, but I got the boards mixed up, and that one had 4.4 on it, not 4.1 like I thought. I'm pretty sure it's hard bricked now (that whole can't downgrade thing) because it's unresponsive to everything. Though my computer does recognize that it's plugged in, more on that later.

So I figured, fine, I screwed up, I'll just use the other board with 4.1 on it from the white phone. Except when I did a factory reset on that one, it did the exact same thing! Same errors, same problem stuck at the Samsung logo. Except this time I'm not flashing sh*t until I know exactly what I need to do to fix it. In another post where the guy had the same issue with 4.1.1, it was solved by flashing 4.3 with Odin. And another post where the guy had no idea what version he had, he just knew it was lower than 4.3, his problem was also solved by flashing 4.3, But since my last efforts failed miserably, I'm very reluctant to try it until I get some knowledgeable input. I don't remember exactly which version is on there, it's 4.1.something. I'd also prefer not to upgrade beyond 4.1 because I'd like to unlock it and from what I'm reading you can only do it for free if you're on 4.1. So I guess I need a link to an Odin flashable 4.1 package?

As for the poor blue phone that used to have 4.4.something, and was mistakenly flashed with 4.3, I've heard about JTAG but I don't quite understand it, and I'm not sure it would work in my case since a lot of what I'm reading says that bricking which occurs from downgrading is often unfixable. However, Windows recognizes that a device is plugged in when I attach it via USB. It shows up in the Device Manager as QHSUSB_DLOAD. I am currently researching more on this and the method of booting from an SD card, except I don't have an SD card reader at the moment.

Any assistance, advice, links, information, and plain ole encouragement are always welcome and appreciated.

Failed Flashing Stock ROM via SP Flashtool, Device doesnt turn on

My Lenovo A3500 is no turning on after flashing the stock rom via sp flashtools, it didn't flash completely, it failed before downloading. I accidentally closed the error box (which tells me where the log file is).
So before this happened, I successfully flashed the stock rom for my tablet, then I decided to flash cwm recovery (I found a compatible version), Then I tried flashing the cwm recovery via spflashtool but it tells me that "PMT changed for the rom. It must be downloaded". So I decided to reinstall the stock rom with the CWM recovery. So I selected the scatter file for the stock rom and I just changed the path of the recovery to the CWM recovery, when I clicked download and connected my powered off device, It showed an error that it cant be completed (I forgot what it is, it told me there's a log file) Now my tablet doesnt start after pressing the power button, cant access anything on the tablet but when I connect it to my computer, my computer plays the sound that it found a device so that means my tablet is detected. I tried adb devices but it shows nothing. I tried flashing the stock rom again via sp flashtool but when I click download and plug in the phone the download is not starting meaning it cant detect my tablet.

So for short:
my lenovo a3500 tablet doesnt turn on after flashing stock rom, it is detected by pc (plays sound) but cant be detected by adb. It cant be detected by sp flashtool.
please help, youre my last hope pls m8s
----------------------------------------------------------------
NEVERMIND, I JUST INSTALLED THE MTK PRELOADER VCOM DRIVER AND TRIED FLASHING IT AGAIN VIA SP FLASHTOOLS THEN IT WORKED!!! PLEASE CLOSE THE THREAD. THANKS

Total storage drops after failed nandroid backup?

Today I made a CWM nandroid backup, and it failed near the end of baking up /data. When I booted android, storage reports 11. 65gb, 625mb available. Before I had ~14gb, ~4gb available. Today I moved some external data to first SD card partition with app2sd, i didn't use link2sd before so I don't know if that has something to do. I've got 15 gb empty on the SD card, so thats not the problem.

Please Help Recover from Failed Flash on OC1

Hey,

Sorry total noob at messing with my phone, buuuuuut I tried to (foolishly) downgrade my Verizon sch-i545 from OC1 because I hate it. I tried to flash back to MDK using ODIN 3.4, 3.7, AND 3.9 all of which failed. From what I can find it seems like flashing to anything from a Verizon sch-i545 running OC1 is destined to fail due to something contained in the update. Is this correct? Since the failed flash, I can't get my phone to turn back on normally, it just gives me the "Software Update Failed, use verizon software repair assistant..." which from what I can find is downloaded from the phone when you plug it in? But it didn't seem to do so for mine when I initially plugged it in to back up files. I can't find an online source to download the verizon software from. So basically I'm asking for help on just getting my phone functioning again? It doesn't seem like I've bricked it, but I don't know what to do after a failed flash? Can I download the 5.0.1 firmware and flash it using odin and it will actually work because it's 5.0.1? I'm tired of waiting 2 hrs to download a firmware to have it immediately fail haha. Or is there another much simpler way to get it out of this mode and back to just running normal ****ty lollipop? I can get the phone back into download mode, but that's it. Thanks for any help. Sorry if anything is silly or redundant, tried searching for hours without finding much.

Thanks.

NVIDIA Shield Unlock Bootloader FAILED

Good afternoon-
I recently picked up a NVIDIA Shield from a friend of mine because it would not turn back on for him. It is currently stuck at the NVIDIA Boot screen. I can access the Bootloader and I can access stock recovery. However, when I attempted to use Fastboot to unlocked the bootloader I receive the below...

(bootloader) Showing Options on Display.
(bootloader) Use device keys for selection.
(bootloader) erasing userdata...
(bootloader) erasing userdata done
(bootloader) erasing cache...
(bootloader) erasing cache done
(bootloader) unlocking...
FAILED (remote: ()
finished. total time: 3.872s

I am using "Fastboot OEM Unlock" and it does prompt me on the Shield to unlock, but once I select unlock it bounces right back to the bootloader and fails. I tried wiping data and factory reset via stock recovery, but when I do I receive an E: Failed to Mount /Cache (Invalid Argument). It will not let me read/write any of my user data files at all. It seems as if they are corrupt, but I am not quite sure.

I am looking for a way to get this thing back up and running. I am perfectly fine with losing all data on it. Is there a stock kernal that I can flash with a locked bootloader? I fear the issue is with the bootloader or corrupted EMMC. I am open to any and all suggestions!

[Q] fastboot flash system system.img FAILED , need fix

Hey,

I have a ZE551ML and want to install CM. I am following the guide here. I have run into a problem on the first step which points to the guide here. At step 7 of this guide it has me use the command: fastboot flash system system.img. This fails with the error in the title of this post: FAILED <remote: Permission denied>. I have been googling this and no one has a concrete solution. Currently my phone will not even boot as the three fastboot commands before this one worked just fine and replaced the files. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers,

Eric.
