[Q]Softbricked D802 after removing Xposed manually topic

Hey guys,
Coming from Nexus 4, I'm fairly new to the G2 forums. Last week I rooted my D802 and flashed the OptimusRS Kitkat rom (V3.5) and played around with some tweaks to change its framework. I installed Xposed (2.5 beta) and a few modules (Gravity Box, G2 Tweakbox) to hide the navbar and some other cosmetical stuff. I noticed this beta release of Xposed was still a little buggy here and there, so I removed it manually (through the app itself and rebooted...

...and then I got the infinite boot loop.

Since I removed Xposed manually, my G2 is stuck at the LG logo, I can't get into recovery, I tried a hard reset (by pushing the power button three times in the white screen), but after that, the screen remains blackish (there is some light though, so the phone is 'on').

I tried several guides to restore the stock firmware, but my Windows XP laptop won't recognize my device. The LG R&D software says my phone is disconnected, so restoring gets stuck at 15%. When I try to put my phone in download mode, I only see the little blue sign 'download mode', but no other options.

I'm absolutely out of options. I'm quite experienced with flashing roms, but never got myself in so much trouble before. I almost threw my G2 (which I really, really love) out of the window because of this.

Thanks in advance.

[Q] Completely removing encryption on SD? topic

So when I joined my phone to the corporate network, it insisted on (amongst other things), encrypting the SD card. After some annoyance with that, pins etc, I decided to revert back. I successfully removed the accounts etc and unchecked the encrypted SD card option.

However, when I did so, it said something about only applying going forward and I still keep getting asked for the pin to decrypt the SD card. So it seems that stuff is still decrypted on there? I have done some searching but have had little luck finding any definitive answers, most seem to be related to problems with people losing whatever key to decrypt items which is obviously not the case here since once I enter the pin, I can access items with no problem

So what's the deal? Do I have to save everything off and reformat the SD card to get back to normal? Seems kind-of wonky to me but that's Android, I guess.

Oh, I have tried reencrypting and unencrypting the SD card again and the Android version is 4.1.2 if that's any help.

No reception after removing the back cover of HTC One x topic

Hello,

I am using a HTC one x unbranded. I have recently removed the back cover just to look inside(i know i am stupid, Shouldn't have done that).

But anyway after placing the back cover safely and cautiously i can't seem to get my sim card registered (which i used before perfectly in this phone ) due to poor reception in my opinion.

The other thing is when i go to the city where the network tower is located my phone seem to be working fine. better reception.

I have tried many things. I looked inside the phone again to make sure i haven't damaged anything and also tried a different sim card and i did reset the phone as well. Nothing seemed to help me so far.

Any suggestions will be highly appreciated

Thank you
Mahesh

[Q] Replacing and Removing Nexus 5 LCD and Digitizer from Front Frame topic

Does anyone have any experience with separating and replacing only the LCD and Digitizer on a Nexus 5 from the from frame that they are in?
I've seen videos and guides where the Nexus 5 gets taken apart but they leave front frame + lcd + digitizer together and do not bother disassembling those.
From what I've read I can use a heatgun (I'll likely use a hot air rework station for better temperature control) to do this but are there more specific tips/instructions such as best temperature to do so or if I would need to further clean leftover residue and what I adhesive I should use when sticking on the replacement LCD/digitizer to the frame.
I would also appreciate links to perhaps this procedure being done on other phones as it will likely be similar.

[Q] Removing encryption topic

I am thinking of encrypting my HD+ (Settings>Security>Encrypt Tablet). As far as I can see this means simply that the /data partition will be encrypted and that CWM is afterwards not able to access this anymore (ie for backups or restores). I can do a complete backup by other means, but how would I be able to restore that?

Will the recovery still boot and will I then be able to format/wipe /data? Probably not because /data is not mounted!?

Also, what happens if I want to update the system, say to a newer version of CM?
