NFC and Location Services

Hey, is there anything being done about the "Unfortunately, NFC service has stopped" issues or NFC status? I'm going to continue using this ROM as a daily driver in the hopes that this issue will be addressed, but I also came across inaccurate and broken location locking with Google maps and some games like Pokemon GO. Has anyone dealt with SM-N900A GPS issues? If so, is there anything that I can do to fix them? (I already tried the link in the original post about modifying the gps.conf file and used other GPS status apps) I also plan on trying version 2 today.

Need Help ASAP

Hi, i have note 3 N900A, i have no root or custom recovery. i am on official Lollipop 5.0 version. i tried to flash this file by odin on my deivce, when it restarted nothing changed or happened. what should i do ? please Help me :crying:
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] akv22:
First off root your phone for this

---------- Post added at 05:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:06 PM ----------

I actually reinstall everything... Which is working great and thank you for that but I am confused because the Rom software to be able to customize randomly disappear and isn't in my apps or setting is there a way I can add this manually.. I finally got this perfect and I don't want to have to rest anything.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] kamran95:
i have OC1, how can i root it ?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Rjevon:
You have to go back to nc2 stock, then root. Instructions are all over. Just make sure you read and reread first. This ROM is awesome!

---------- Post added at 07:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:06 PM ----------

If you're on v1 you need to update to v2. Nfc is being addressed for next update I believe however v2 gets rid of nfc pop ups. I don't use it myself but otherwise this great for me. I haven't use GPS yet but my location pops up automatically.

i successfully rooted and flashed this rom. now im facing error again and again of "unfortunately the process com.google.process.gapps as stopped" what should i do ?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] jjhonnz:
I flash the ROM is being a while I'm using it.

I figure out that I don't have Safestrap.

My question is how I can install it if the only recovery I have access is the factory recovery but that's it.

I try to flash the Recovery Firmware OC1 via FlashFire but when I install Safestrap don't reboot into the Recovery.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] joshuaburnsjr:
V2 much more stable. Clock is working for me now. However Bluetooth is inop won't even turn on. So far looks like Viper is fixed as well. Good job. Anyone has the same issue with Bluetooth. And once again it won't turn on so we are not talking about the streaming issue from V1

Just my experience with this device and the latest ROMS make sure you are flashing safestrap installer while on NC1
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Rjevon:
If you don't mind me asking. What steps did you take to get this ROM installed maybe I can help.

---------- Post added at 04:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:36 PM ----------

The Bluetooth all was accidentally removed from v2 just look a few posts back warrior provided the Bluetooth to put back using any file explorer. You can also find this method a few posts back. Bluetooth is working excellent now with headphones and car!

---------- Post added at 04:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:41 PM ----------

I had a couple of issues with v2 loading up the first time. I went back to nc2 and rooted and did a fresh clean install of v2 and haven't had a single problem since.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] joshuaburnsjr:
Bluetooth Broken

Confirmed as well with me. Bluetooth is inop. Watching the thread heavily as all of the other bugs so far for me are fixed.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] bigdaddytrayn:
Followed Bluetooth instructions but can't get it to work. Changed permissions and everything.

I had NC2 Stock rooted for 2 months.

I had BusyBox, Xposed and Safestrap then I upgrade to Stock Rooted lollipop of Walter.White.

Then I update to this ROM, no problem with nothing, root, Bluetooth, Xposed, (I don't use NFC so is not problem now).

- I use safestrap to flahs the ROM

- Then I flash the OC1 Firmware zip

- Then reboot

- Install BusyBox

- Install Safestrap

- Reboot on recovery and then show me the factory recovery.

Probably is because everybody say I need to be in NC2 or NL1.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Rjevon:
Steps I took..odined back to nc2, rooted( SuperSU, BusyBox,safestrap), booted into safestrap recovery, factory reset, flashed v2. Running very well for me.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Rjevon:
Where did you put it there apk? What file browser did you use? If there are root settings for the file browser are they enabled, and lastly did you try rebooting afterwards?

Lockscreen notification

Before i flashed the rom, my screen doesnt light up with lockscreen notifications and just gives me the led light indicator after flashing the rom my lockscreen lights up and has a black and white color with black wallpaper on. How do i fix this?

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] jjhonnz:
Hello, it's me again.

Sorry for this question but is better ask to learn more.

I figure out isn't Bluetooth apk, I go to my zip v1 and I take it from there I put it at the folder of system apps and the permissions, but I saw you posted the apk and to be sure I download that apk and put the permissions again.... my question is why is always fail when I try to send any file via BT. for example I try to send a picture phone to phone and is fail I didn't have that problem at the v1.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Rjevon:
No problems with sound here I have viper installed and working like a charm with headphones, car stereo, and external phone speakers.

---------- Post added at 03:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:49 PM ----------

Did you reboot after changing permissions? What file destination did you put it in? I haven't experienced this problem as I haven't sent anything via Bluetooth. However connections to car and headphones work perfectly.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] jjhonnz:
Yes I reboot it after the permissions.

/system/apps/Bluetooth/

that was the folder I put it, with the car and headphones works good as you said, I mean the streaming works just fine when a try to send it it's the problem.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Rjevon:
I'll test sending something via Bluetooth later on today. In the mean time if no one here is experiencing this problem, if you haven't already you might want comb through the original thread to see if anyone has encountered this.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Javs2010:
I just tested sending files through Bluetooth and works fine here tried different file types too
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] jjhonnz:
Was too late today early morning, that's why I was in a rush.

I make the test with different devices I have and I discover that I'm wrong, because I can send files and receive too. But if try to sent it to this tablet (the only one I tested early morning) I can't.

Does anyone know how/where to get the latest version of ADB for Android? I've been running into some issues sideloading apps to my Fire TVs from my phone, using apps that were meant for that purpose. Those apps no longer function properly and it's very likely due to an outdated version of ADB on this ROM. Any info would be appreciated.

[Moto G4 Guides, News, & Discussion] LeifEricson:
Sorry if this is the wrong section, but it may be helpful for those with this version of the phone to see this ASAP. As of yesterday, 7/19/2016, Motorola stopped giving out unlock keys for the Amazon Prime "with ads" edition of the Moto G4. Though they for a short time advised on their website to contact customer support at Amazon for a unlock key, Amazon does not provide this service and Motorola's support page now reflects this. If you obtained an unlock key prior to yesterday, it will obviously still work, so please keep it safe somewhere.

It is CONFIRMED however that the "Standard Non-Ad" edition sold on Amazon is the retail version which can be bootloader unlocked! So if you can, buy that one instead.
[Moto G4 Guides, News, & Discussion] rmartinezdl:
oh snap, and I was about to buy one
[Moto G4 Guides, News, & Discussion] atrix4nag:
Unnecessary i waited all these days. Finally i got time today to unlock bootloader, and its not working :( What should I do? return it and buy non-ad version?
[Moto G4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mattwmaster58:
Maybe.......

hey, maybe just try this link. you never know.....

https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-b

Definatley a huge bummer that it was possible and then they closed it. Maybe someone could reverse engineer the API they use for sending Data and such on the moto site, and then force it to generate a unlock key. Or maybe I'm just a very, very hopeful thinker
[Moto G4 Guides, News, & Discussion] atrix4nag:
I followed the same steps. No use. :(
[Moto G4 Guides, News, & Discussion] LeifEricson:
There is currently (or at least was yesterday) and Instant $50 rebate on the Standard editions on Amazon, making them the same price as the ad versions. I've talked to their Prime phone department (because apparently that exists...) and they seem to insist that the Standard version is a factory Motorola phone, which should in theory be unlockable. So if you can still return yours, you should probably do so if bootloader unlock/rooting is important to you.
[Moto G4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mattwmaster58:
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

I also unlocked mine yesterday when I received it. Make sure you have the unlock key in the exact format that it describes on the official unlock page.

It doesn't tell you if it is in the wrong format. You can type anything in the text box and it will say not eligible. So make sure you have it right. It took me a few tries.

This thread is specifically for the version WITH Ads.

One of the main reasons I don't buy subsidized devices. They leave you at the mercy of the seller. It is well worth the extra $20.00 for the full retail version to avoid that headache.

I also research devices thoroughly via XDA and other Android support sites. Gives a heads-up to irritating limitations such as this one as well as letting me know how much is available in customizing.

If you have a Best Buy nearby check their price, they have had the phone at a good price before. They're not usually my favorite retailer but sometimes they surprise me.

I have an amazon prime ad-supported G4 that I bought mid-September that I got bootloader unlocked through Motorola's standard process. Still have an update channel of "amz" but otherwise I have a custom recovery flashed and rooted and removed all Amazon bloat.

It may have to do with the fact that before I unlocked it, I flashed the stock (non-amazon) oem.img back on version -49. Unfortunately it will soft-brick your phone to try that with -64 because they changed it around a little. So that could've been it? Also I had unlocking enabled in developer options.

Really don't know what else could've allowed me to do it but yeah I unlocked the bootloader recently and have been running TWRP and rooted with no issues. And yes I'm 100% sure it's the ad-supported version, I removed all of the ads by hand after they came back on the -64 update
[Moto G4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tel864:
If it was early on, then it could be unlocked. Amazon blocked the unlocking a little later on. Flashing a new image still wouldn't open up the unlock process.
[Moto G4 Guides, News, & Discussion] ansong:
I just received a replacement (amazon) phone that can apparently be unlocked. Is there a danger to unlocking / twrp / rooting the phone with the -64 version of Marshmallow?
[Moto G4 Guides, News, & Discussion] lerg96:
replacement from? Amazon? Motorola?
[Moto G4 Guides, News, & Discussion] ansong:
It's a prime phone with ads but I got it from Motorola, as they handle the warranty.
[Moto G4 Guides, News, & Discussion] lerg96:
what did you do to send it to warranty? hardbricked? softbriked?

I have a Moto g4 prime, and i bricked it with nougat. I want to know if i can send it to motorola for repair it
[Moto G4 Guides, News, & Discussion] ansong:
Mine isn't bricked at all. The problem is that the speaker only works when I take the back off and squeeze by the camera. In other words, it's very obviously a hardware issue.

I'm not sure they'll honor the warranty for a software based problem. :confused:
[Moto G4 Guides, News, & Discussion] MoseIlla:
You unlocked it on the Motorola website?
[Moto G4 Guides, News, & Discussion] ansong:
Not yet, but on the website it says that it is unlockable when I input the "fastboot oem get_unlock_data" string. That is, the "Request Unlock Key" button appears. Maybe it's an early one.

My main concern now is that I can't find much guidance for rooting or putting the vanilla moto android build on it, since it is an amazon device with the most recent -64 update.

---------- Post added at 02:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:10 PM ----------

On Amazon's site, there is an option to remove the ads from "prime" device versions. Has anyone done this? Does it make it into a stock device, off the "amz" upgrade channel or does it just remove the advertisement software?
[Moto G4 Guides, News, & Discussion] MoseIlla:
There's no such option. There's an option to purchase the standard phone without ads, but no option to remove them after purchase.

EDIT: Spoke too soon, I see the option. I apologize. I have no idea, try contacting Motorola?
[Moto G4 Guides, News, & Discussion] MoseIlla:
As penance for my jumping the gun I contacted Motorola support. Their response is attached.View attachment motog4chat.pdf

Thanks for looking into that. I suspect I'll go that route.
[Moto G4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tel864:
I sent in a bricked Amazon Prime phone and after they reflashed it, it's now on the retus update schedule. Since it's the wife's phone I haven't tried to unlock it yet though. Since the unlocking is tied to the hardware and not the rom, I would imagine that the only way a Prime phone would become unlockable is by them replacing the entire phone like they probably did on his and not reflashing like they did mine.
[Moto G4 Guides, News, & Discussion] ansong:
Ok, I paid the $50 to remove the ads but from what I can tell, it just throws a switch telling the phone to not display them. I was kind of hoping it would at least change the "Software Variant" and "Software Channel" fields under about phone. There even appears to be a way to re-subscribe to the advertisements/special offers, which means it isn't somehow magically transformed into a normal G4. I'll go ahead and go forward with unlocking and rooting as though it were a standard device from Motorola, but I can't wait until Lineage OS has a release and I can get off this firmware.

---------- Post added at 04:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:34 PM ----------

Was that a paid repair? Or were they just being indulgent that day? I'd love to know how to get on the retail update schedule.
[Moto G4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tel864:
It was a free repair and they even paid for overnight shipping both directions. I took it to a FedEx dropoff on Sunday afternoon and had it back in my hands Thursday.
[Moto G4 Guides, News, & Discussion] MoseIlla:
If you have trouble with it I would contact Motorola support. I'm fairly confident that they're technically *capable* of unlocking your device, it's just that they probably have a contract that says otherwise. If their organization is giving you false information they should take responsibility for that somehow.
[Moto G4 Guides, News, & Discussion] lerg96:
How did you brick it?
