I think so. Do you know the reason for it? Do you think it was because i had the XPOSED framework mod?

I use Xposed framework, I don't see that being the issue and how it could cause a hardware failure. I have heard this issue before when tons of people had their S3 died suddenly, there is a big thread of it in its forum.
You'll probably want to wait for the Nexus 5.

Well it would be better if you have a backup phone. It will be based on the LG G2 and gsmarena.com even post is specs, but until it's officially announced by Google it's all speculation.
You could use get the G2, but since it's not the nexus you won't get the same software experience and developer support, price is a big deal as well. Also rumor is the Nexus 5 will support all LTE bands, but that's to be seen.

So this happened to my phone. Brought it to a repair shop and said the EMMC was dead.
Long story short, credit card company refunded the purchase price, I bought a Nexus 5, but I still kept the dead Nexus 4.
Is it possible to buy a replacement part/motherboard to replace this, or is it completely shot (fine with that)?
If it is dead, I was going to recycle it or offer it up for parts. With an EMMC brick, is there anyway to recover any of my personal information that was on the phone?
Thanks!
You'd have to get a new motherboard. Check eBay. No way to get your info off out that I know.
Out of curiosity, what were your symptoms of the phone?. Did you ever try to lock the bootloader and it wouldn't lock?

Motherboard ~$100. Might give it try. The teardown instructions dont' seem too daunting. Do I have to worry about this IMEI stuff?
As for symptoms. I was completely stock, and locked bootloader. I was doing something and then it froze on me.
Went to reboot, and it was stuck on the boot animation (merging dots).
Ended up trying a tool kit to flash the phone. It worked, got back into the system and as it was downloading apps, it froze again.
This time, when I went to reflash, it would error would error with a "failure to write to flash".

Today I got so annoyed at no rotation, I reflashed 4.4.2 via Odin, rebooted to check it was working, It was.
Then I rooted the phone, tested rotation again, still OK, so then I braved CWM and it's fine.. Still working fine now last I checked... thankfully it was a bit annoying playing with youtube earlier.. @jetbruceli has the same issue also

Tried both leaks (the 4 filed one and 1 filed XEO)
Im out of ideas so if anyone PLEASE knows a fix i would be very thankful
EDIT: F everything. Apparently all my sensors are broken.
Anyone who's got this problem, do you have other lockscreen than the default? I had this problem also with sensors / rotation not working after some time, and my fix was to change the lockscreen from pattern to swipe. Please report back if this fixes your problem.

First of all help is always starting from the beginning. If you reflash the problem goes away and all is well. No one knows really why yet it stops rotation.
I removed Knox and it stop the rotation too. Reinstalling didn't help.
So please before saying no is helping just do what we suggest and then figure the rest on your own.
I had the problem with rotatation before anyone I believe and my solution was to reflash from scratch and then only remove add on apps like ever note.
Leave all Sammy apps installed and so far my note is running perfect
Hit thanks if I helped

If this should go in Q&A Please moderator move for me.
After i got the KitKat update it has been downhill from there.
Little by little knock on stopped working. now it does not work at all.
I have doner factory resets several times and nothing seems to fix this.
Is it a hardware issue or software issue?
Is it the proximity sensor???
I am out of ideas.
I am considering switching to either the Galaxy S5 or HTC M8.
Has anyone of you experienced this problem and if so, is there a fix??
I have searched and read many threads here and nobody has a fix.

Dear i am also facing the same issue, my knock off is working perfectly but now knock on doesn't seems to work, i become really frustrated done wipe cache, hard reset and now completely messed up everything.
Actually knock performance keeps on deteriorating for me after kk update and now yesterday i got another update D802B and knok on messed up, now i had to use power button to turn my screen on, really frustrating.
As far as my opinion LG G2 is a phone with good hardware and ****ing software.

Hello XDA.
I have a:

BASEBAND VERSION: I1337MVLUAMDJ
KERNAL VERSION: 3.4.0-1529758 [email protected]#1
BUILD NUMBER: K0T49H.1337MVLUFNE1
The problem is, I had rooted my phone long time ago and wanted to recently unroot and update to the latest KitKat version (I was on jellybean). It would not let be update because it said the device was modified or something of that sort. I tried to unroot by following a tutorial online and flashing with a stock rom.
I did exactly as it says but now my phone is totally messed up. My Wifi no longer works, the apps keep crashing and nothing is working like its suppose too. I do not know what to do to fix this. How do I return my phone back to factory settings as if it is brand new? I have tried flashing stock roms 3 times new (3 different ones using ODIN) and nothing seems to work. I have tried samsung kies and it is still doing the same thing!
Please help.

No, it would not be the case. Odin flashes the entire firmware, kernel and all. Sammobile is an official site for the firmware so if it doesn't work you might have a hardware issue. But wait for the download.

Not sure what else to tell you. If Odin isn't working you may have a hardware issue. Odin should return engaguing to like new. The only thing I can think of is you have an issue with the emmc memory, which isn't good.

Can you boot into recovery? Do a factory reset in recovery
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Free mobile app
I recently accepted the D80120G OTA form T Mobile while rooted on stock recovery and naturally root broke. I couldn't reroot with stump root because the root script was still on the phone. Stump root said device was already rooted. I tried to install KDZ file to "unroot", but could not get phone to boot into download mode.
The following is a fix for rerooting your phone with stump root if it says your device is already rooted even though your root is broken.
1) Launch LG Mobile support tool
2) With phone on, plug in USB
3) Select PC Software from phone USB settings
4) Wait for LG support tool to recognize phone
5) Select "Upgrade Recovery" from options in LG support tool
6) Wait for LG Support tool to complete recovery
You shouldn't need to back up anything as it will not wipe your phone. However, better safe than sorry.
Now stump root should work with brute force method!
This worked for me! Thanks so much for the post!

Hey. I really love you for this. It worked like a charm. How you figured it out bro? The process of recovery upgrade seems to manipulate system files which enabled the rooting process to succeed.
Anyways thanks again.

Brilliant!
Many thanks for posting this...worked perfectly!
FWIW, my phone was NOT recognized after installing the G2 drivers from the LG download page. I had to install the entire LG PC Suite. No idea why this worked out over against simply installing the drivers, but I thought I'd add the tidbit here in case anyone else has the same issue.
Thanks again!
Mine says no problem to fix

I faced this issue some time ago but my phone wasn't rooted. I did a CSE flash to JB and took OTA until my phone was up-to-date and when i reached the last update I couldn't boot into download mode.
Did u ever find a fix to put into do we nload mode

Worked like charm for my T-mo G2 D801 20G with lost root access after taking OTA (4.4.2.) Had to do it twice (crashed during install at 80%) and it does involve the 1.6GB download of the firmware (for those who are wandering)... Thanks for this.
I have the same problem, but after i click upgrade recovery a popup windows say " no upgrade items to fix"
who should i do now

Without experiencing this issue myself, I would suggest checking each step for completion. Aside from that I cant offer any alternative fixes. Hopefuly someone else on this board can discover a work around from their experience.
Good luck!
WTF!!!
I followed these instructions exactly. My t-mobile phone rebooted and now it has Lollipop. I'm pretty sure they haven't released it officially...

Here you go! Having issues at the moment though. I can't download anything from the Play store. Gets stuck at the downloading bar and never downloads anything. Might have to reinstall.

I also found this article tonight. Its for the G3, but reading through the comments also confirms it worked on G2. Thats crazy you stumbled on this. I wonder why its available through the lg tool? Let us know if you figure out the bugs.
