[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] origitat:
I have an AT&T Note 5 that AT&T of course gave me the unlock code for so I want to give it to my wife's mom who lives in Russia. Of course she knows 0 English so I need to get the system language to Russian. I didn't realize the N920A didn't have the russian language on it by default. Am I screwed? From my limited searching it seems this device is still bootloader locked correct?

We might need to unlock bootloader first
[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] T_I:
Bootloader unlock is same as al other G's, get code from Motorola and unlock. For me root and twrp are the 2 starters. I have no doubt development will soon follow. (mainly as I'll give it a shot when twrp and root are available)

Sigh, I ordered it here in germany, got the XT1642 model. Does this mean I won't be able to take it back to the US and use it with Verison? (CDMA)

Is there anyway to patch the modem to allow for CDMA, or do certain models have different HW
[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] AmyClaraRose:
Op can you correct your info as there is a 64gb with 4gb version
[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] xtermmin:
You could probably use something like QPST to turn on the processor's CDMA support, but the GSM-only models probably lack the necessary antenna setups for CDMA reception.

Plus, I doubt the XT1642 would be on Verizon's activation whitelist.

LTE CAT 6?

Thanks for the Variants and supporting bands, can you also let me know what is the LTE Cat level, across all regions Moto G4 Plus is LTE CAT 4, but the Indian Variant shows as CAT 6. Also if you would have noticed in the Indian Webpage they have mentioned the model variant as XT1644. If you have any information regarding the same. Please update.
[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] xtermmin:
Pretty sure they're all Cat4, regardless of region.

There are typos on Moto's webpages for the G4 in multiple regions (and even in countries residing in the same region). The Indian model is definitely the XT1643.
[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] prabu:
LTE CAT 6 was a major decission making factor

Thanks for you're response, The LTE CAT 6 was one of the key factors that made me purchase this phone. I can now presume that it won't support LTE Carrier aggregation :(

I'm on unlocked and I'm on stock software rooted and I just add my own mods. I'll share them no problem but I'm still figuring how I want to share. I don't really want to make a rom. I could just share the apks and jars to flash or push, then remove the odex files. Right now I have full apm and ambient display added to framework. I made these apm icons to match stock. I also could just give the edits. Ambient display just needs to be unhide really

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Dlind:
To add to the always on display issue. Lcd displays, if kept on for extended periods of time with a constant image, will burn a image into the liquid crystal. Led displays, well can't they are led dots, if they get hot they just turn off. Lcd displays just can't do that.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] meda77cz:
I'm using Always on Amoled from Google Play. Looks just like S8's. The clock moves quite often so I hope it doesn't burn display. Only problem is that it kills battery quite badly. But if it's in your pocket or face down it's off. Using it as night clock charger plugged in is fine. Check it out, looks awesome

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Stevenator65:
I have an hp ipaq RX 5915 with wm5. It has 7 buttons and a d-pad. When I try to map the buttons, only 4 of the 7 show up. Ideally I want to be able to use something like Vito Buttonmapper, but Vito only recognizes the 4 buttons. Is there a registry setting I can change to have my pocket pc recognize those buttons in the buttons settings section?

I have searched this forum, but couldn't find an answer. I appreciate any help.

Thanks!

There is button enhancer and mapping bible by Menneisyys. Hopefully you will find something that will work for you there.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ma_gu:
Buttons are mapped by the following registry entries:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Keys\40Cx

(Probably after modifying these entries a reboot of the device is required to effect changes)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DJ_Nitro:
Try Hbutton , it allows you to asign more than one app to a button.

It's pretty powerful, I have 4 apps per button.

​

Frequently asked questions

Q: Will this conflict with any mod I'm using?

A: As long as it doesn't have any entropy related stuff, its okay. Since the kernel already comes with an inbuilt entropy generator, it will conflict with the ones from mod, causing a poor, stuttered performance!

Q: Deep Sleep isnt working for me, Google Services causing wake-locks, what to do?

A: Go to settings, Privacy, Privacy Guard, All apps, long press Google Services, and deny/disable wake-locks! (Thanks to [MENTION=5514152]Paget96[/MENTION] for the solution)

Q: Which version should I flash

A: Flash kernel to respective model number (E612)

Q: Which frequency is the safest

A: The default frequency, 800MHz, is the safest!

But, there's no harm in overclocking upto 1100MHz.

You MAY face some issues on 1100MHz-1300MHz, but 1050MHz is stable as 'rock'!

Q: WiFi doesnt work for me

A: Reflash ROM and Kernel

Undervolt Interface:

The current voltage information is available at:

Code:

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/vdd_levels

Defaults for L5:

Code:

root@android:/ # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/vdd_levels
245760: 3
320000: 4
480000: 5
600000: 6
800000: 7
900000: 7
950000: 7
1000000: 7
1050000: 7
1150000: 7
1200000: 7
1250000: 7
1300000: 7

To change for example the voltage level of the 800000 frequency, you could do:

Code:

echo '800000 6' > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/vdd_levels

If you cat this file again, you should see that the voltage level is picked up.

The new voltage level is picked up when the CPU will scale to the particular frequency level.

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] someguyatx:
My wife is using my old Turbo which was originally Mofo rooted and it's currently on the First Encounter 5.1 stock image since she doesn't care about root. We tried to do the recent OTA update and it failed. Is there anyway to get it to update without wiping everything and doing a return to stock install of some sort?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] someguyatx:
Bump, I nobody else still has a mofo rooted Turbo? I suppose a factory reset is needed.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] TheSt33v:
I'm not sure, but the problem could be that it's still on the 4.4.4 bootloader. The update script checks just about everything that it can to make sure that you're on stock SU4TL-44 before it decides that it's safe to upgrade. If that's the case, you'll need to flash the SU4TL-44 bootloader. If you want to be 100% sure that the phone will update correctly, restore it to SU4TL-44 using section 0 of this guide: http://xdaforums.com/droid-turbo/general/guide-how-to-unlock-bootloader-install-t3292684

While you're there, you should unlock if you want to do so. Once you get to SU4TL-49 if you haven't unlocked already, you'll be locked up tight. Permanently.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] someguyatx:
Thanks I saw this the other day and forgot to hit reply. I also forgot that the mofo exploit retained the 4.4.4 bootloader which explains why it didn't update. I haven't modded my current Turbo so I am giving it to the wife and moving all of her stuff over. I got myself a M8 in the meantime while I mess with the mofo rooted Turbo.

Do you happen to know if I just need to flash the SU4TL-44 stock firmware in stock recovery to return to stock?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] TheSt33v:
EDIT: I misread what you said. No, you can't flash anything other than official OTAs using the stock recovery. Follow the guide. It's the best way to do it and it's pretty easy.
