Root xt1068/xt1069 lollipop

I found a new functional method to root the Moto G 2 Geração XT1068 / XT1069 , worked perfectly here , I'll send the printscreen !
Requeriments:
1-TWRP 2.7.1.1
2-SuperSU v2.40
Works good...
Install TWRP, flash SuperSU, wipe dalvik cache, wait the reboot... takes a 5 10 minutes...
If you take a bootloop when you restart your device, wait, i take 2 bootloops BUT WORKS

I cant post the link cause im new!
I used the SuperSU v2.40, but i think SuperSU v2.41 works too!!

TO ANYONE WITH ROOT PROBLEMS
SuperSU has been working(not fully) since the 2.16. It has some bootloop and takes a while to start, but it starts!
IN CASE IT DOESN'T:
Wipe cache and dalvik, reboot and after a while it will boot

SuperSU v2.41
Trying to flash BETA v2.41 let's hope it doesn't get stuck in bootloops
*fingers crossed*
Update : Booted to SuperSU BETA v2.41 successfully... Bootloop issue still remains though...

[GUIDE] Black screen after downgrade from Lolipop

Hello everybody !
If you have downgraded from Lolipop to a KitKat ROM and you have issued black screen during call, I have find the solution:
You don't need to flash the Stock ROM. Just flash a Modem from a Stock ROM, Lolipop Modem doesn't work fine on KitKat, proximity sensor is busy and the screen don't wake up during call.
You can find here the latest Stock Modem (XNPH05Q) : MEGA | MediaFire
MD5 : 2fff2a1d9719294db84b714f4389ce6f
You don't need to wipe anything and it doesn't wipe anything. Just flash it and enjoy

Reserved

Can't get it to install with TWRP. When I try to do it, TWRP restarts. On reboot still get black screen on phone call. Is it indeed flashable from recovery?

Yay, of course, it's a flashable .zip, do you use the latest release of TWRP (2.8.6.X) ?

Mmh, I try to flash and it's works fine, here a screenshot :

Then there's something wrong with the recovery or file. Try Calkulin's modem? If it fails again I think there is something wrong with your TWRP. Btw, you need to manually fastboot erase modem in order to flash the KK modem. Last time I tried it won't let me overwrite Lollipop modem with KK modem.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/development/rom-stock-rooted-xnph05q-t3027033

I can overwrite LP modem with KK modem.
The flashable zip seems work fine on two OnePlus. I think it's his recovery who doesn't work

TWRP 2.8.6.0, haven't had any issues with it aside with this. Just tried flashing it, didn't know I needed to fastboot erase the LP modem.
Probably better it didn't work when I tried; made me go in search of a different rom I haven't tried yet [emoji51]

Help with error flashing system

Hi all, well I think I have all but fubarred my 16gb shield tv. I unlocked bootloader, installed twrp and rooted, all was working fine. Then I decided to flash the full android rom that is on the forum . before doing so, i used twrp and made a backup. I installed the full android rom, although it seemed to work fine, i was not crazy about it and decided to go back to the original OS, so I booted up in twrp and went to the restore function, there were no backups to restore , I guess when I installed the system img for the full android it erased my backup somehow. anyway, moving right along, I next went to nvidia website and downloaded the restore image for the 16gb shield tv, i booted in to bootloader and was following the instructions to restore the shield. all seems to go fine until I try to flash the system img, then I get the error "invalid sparse file format at unknown block 0000" it tries to continue but fails, afterwards the system will not boot at all, I can get back to twrp recovery an flash the full android rom just fine, but am not able to flash back the original os without that error. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, as I am stuck at this point as what to attempt next. thanks

Here is an image of the error I get, I am no longer able to write to the system partition,

Just going to go out on limb here, but are you sure the downloaded image isn't corrupted? You could try to download it again, if available do a MD5 hash check to verify it downloaded correctly and then retry flashing it.

Phone possibly soft-bricked, ways to recover without wiping data?

Hey strangers,
Does anyone got any ideas about recovering this phone wihtout wiping it's data? It's supposed to have ADB enabled, but it won't boot to OS.
Video:
I would prefer to get to backup it, but recovery is unacessable and Download mode most likely works but it's not 100% sure.

TWRP tar through Odin.
See TWRP THREAD in development.

Haven't yet, but should I be able to just fix the bootloader and it should work? If yes, how should it be done? Backup first though, probably.

Bootloaders in the bootloader and modem threads.

I have flashed the OS fully to the phone, but now it's in a bootloop trying to go to recovery which for some reason does not work neither does flashing TWRP as it stil won't boot to the recovery.
Does anyone happen to have a PIT file for this device?
Exact model: SM-N9005 (International version)

EDIT: I were able to boot to OS once, but don't know how. This is really wierd behavior.

LineageOS update gone wrong

Hi,
Using a Note3 LTE version. 9005. Tried to update with TWRP ver 2.8.7. Did not work. Tried to flash 3.3.0 TWRP image, now phone only goes in these two modes after removing the SD card:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
and this
The flash was on the SD card. Card removed now. Any ideas how to fix this?

Can you perform fastboot commands?

Wait just flash a rom with odin then go back into bootloader and flash twrp.

How to do that? I'm guessing this is the way. Its been a very long time since I flashed a phone.

This should be new enough.

How do I mark the best answer?
I've installed the LOS, got it working but no gapp apps. So tried to flash TWRP again, but it always boots to the LOS 18 recovery and not TWRP. Now going back to Note3 stock. There must be something I'm doing wrong somewhere.

Before you flash the recovery, untick the Auto Reboot option in ODIN. Then flash the recovery. After flashing in done, reboot your device directly to recovery mode from download mode by pressing Vol up + Power + Home button together. Now you will see the TWRP recovery is booted in your device. Now you can reboot normally and your TWRP will be installed.
