Root Bootloop help..

[AndroidHaCks]

So I changed my build.prop to the make the Play Store thing it was the Nexus 4, and well now I have a boot loop. Already factory reseted, but no good. Any help would be appreciated

Hi. I'm unfamiliar with your device but did you make a nandroid backup before tweaking the build prop? Or do you have one at all?

If so, try booting into recovery, formatting all partitions (except sd card) and restore your backup.

If you don't have a working backup (lesson learned) you could try re-flashing your rom.

We can't do any of those things.

Hmmm.. Is there no custom recovery or something for this phone?


To the OP:
If you can't flash a rom or restore a backup, did you at least back up the original build.prop?

Maybe you can use adb to push the unaltered build.prop to the phone?

Were you trying to download an app that isn't compatible with the Rise? I know I used to download apps that weren't supposed to work with my Optimus V, but I usually looked for hacked versions on the web (and then virus checked them before installing), instead of trying to get them at the Play Store.

Guess this is just another lesson for us here using this phone as a rooted device.

Nope, and currently there's no way to get one on either. Technically, someone has made CWM for it, but installing it bricked the phone because of the locked bootloader. We have zero access to fastboot. Just can't get there from here unless Kyocera decides to stop being dicks or we find a vulnerability.
