Hello good day everyone. I'm using RR-N 11/22. Does flashing 'Xposed Framework' trips 'SafteyNet' irrespective of whether what I'm using as my root manager (SuperSU or Magisk)

Is it just because of flashing 'Xposed Framework'
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
As far as I know, yes - Xposed is detected by SafetyNet, even if magisk hide is set. You could try to use Rootcloak or No Device Check (as mentioned in these posts: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=74269495&postcount=1360 https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=74275431&postcount=1366 ) but if they don't work, then you'll likely have to disable xposed, reboot, then use the app. Afterwards, re-activate xposed and reboot.

[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] strongst:
If I remember then it's because moto g4 plus is not a Pixel device. Hence when you change the device name in build.prop then it should work. But it don't remember it correctly maybe! Someone else knows the exact reason?
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] night0crawler:
Well all I needed to toggle that switch, but it was disabled. So I just had to click on that voice button on bottom left of the lock screen to train the assistant for my voice & switch turned on. But as far as I know it should show Google Assistant when I say 'OK Google, or Hey Google' but it still isn't working, I can access the Google Assistant by long pressing home key on any screen though.

AFAIK and already said: it should work by changing the device name to Pixel in build.prop.

[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] night0crawler:
[MENTION=613506]strongst[/MENTION] Hello again. I figured it out. The problem arises when I update the Google app to latest v7.17.25.21arm in which 'Google' incorporated 'Hey Google' command in this case I have to retrain the assistant to the new commands as well. But after training it, which takes like forever coz mic doesn't recognizes the voice properly, after tedious work of training this new assistant, it fails to work.

I'm using 'Open Gapps Mini 2017/11/22' now, with which Google v7.15.22.21 arm came and this one works just fine.

Have you tried with new SIM cards from your network? Maybe worth checking with your network providers that your IMEI hasn't been blacklisted. Else, you may have to look into getting the device serviced.

You can't do anything with which is needed to do with ANDROID. Hide those folder and disable hidden folders visibility.

OR

You can use Tasker/automation apps which run tasks to delete those folders at interval of an hour or two.. (it will be complicated for newbie, better just use delete function)

No not really, it's more like a bigger street(64 instead of 32 lanes) where can travel more cars parallel in the same time.

Hi guys.

I am currently using 8.1 AOSP ROM on my Moto G4 (XT1622) but in the next few days I will get a new phone.

Now I would like to flash some stock like ROM maybe 7.0 or even 6.0 because the phone will be used by my mother in the future and she is more concerned about battery life and stability that about latest Android features. I made a backup before flashing 8.1 so maybe I should just restore or you have some better proposals.

Thanks.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
Hmm, depending on how technology-familiar your mother is, it might be worth fully flashing 7.0 stock firmware and re-locking the bootloader. If your mother isn't that familiar technology wise, then flashing full stock will mean that Motorola OTA updates will be easier (else TWRP will cause soft bootloops with stock ROM OTA updates, not to mention TWRP and a modified system partition may cause OTA updates to error out) and re-locking the bootloader will also remove the bootloader warning screen. Though you can hide an unlocked bootloader with a custom boot logo, the custom logo may cause OTA updates to fail, and probably mean you'll get a call to fix it... Furthermore, if you were on stock Nougat before flashing 8.1, and attempt to flash stock Marshmallow on the device, you'd have to ensure you or your mother don't accept OTA updates, else you'll likely hard brick the device. Meaning you'll definitely get a call to fix it...

If your G4 is on the reteu software channel, then you may wish to use this latest stock firmware to revert fully to stock and re-lock the bootloader: https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138

A couple of things:

1)You may have to flash the stock firmware twice: once to get to stock, which should allow you to toggle OEM Unlocking under Settings>Developer Options. Then you should be able to flash again with the locking commands to re-lock your bootloader. Afterwards, your bootloader may be locked and you can thus toggle off OEM unlocking to secure the device. That way, you should have a clean, stock device.

2)Re-locking (using both OEM lock begin commands) will erase your device, but probably useful if you wish to give the device to your mother.

3)Re-locking will not restore the warranty, though a service centre may still repair obvious physical damage (your experience may vary).
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] lukic:
Thanks for your replay.

I think I will do what you said. That is the best way to go.

Removing that warning screen will definitely help if I decide to sell the phone in the future.

I was only thinking about Marshmallow because it had better battery life than Nougat.

She was using my Redmi Note 3 (until she broke the screen) and it had pretty good battery life.

But since Moto supports quick charging and I already have quick charger that might not be an issue after all.

Thanks again.

first time to root my g4 plus.so at first ive got some question .which is better use custom roms for my phone or stock rom with some tweaks with root access? .. what about elx kernel??xposed?
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] strongst:
Custom roms are more up to date i terms of security, A little bit more snappier and battery friendly. But since the kernel source isn't public they are lacking some features like sim switches or a better camera quality for example.

But you can tweak a lot here and there for your personal preferences otherwise there's no reason why you are here ;)

Please have a look at these threads for comparison:

https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/help/best-rom-moto-g4-plus-t3703836

https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/help/rom-using-t3691454

If you need ex kernel or xposed depends on features or tweaks. But in general start without every effort to tweaks cause they can interfere with each other and unless you know what you're doing it can be more a culprit then helpful.

Please be aware that tweaking here and there won't gain 50% more speed, battery life or so. It's more then within 1-10%

I want to know why my Lenovo Moto G4 Plus XT1640(see attachment for version info) doesn't have a bootloader mode, instead when I press Vol- + Power it always boot into Factory Mode(see attachment picture). I can't flash any ROM and can't use any adb/fastboot/mfastboot flash related command because of no bootloader. :\

When LOS 15.0 comes, can I update via lineageOS Updater?
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
Are you sure that's the right attachment for version info? That device info otherwise is for a different device :

1) Baseband starts with MOLY.WR8.... which appears to be for Mediatek System-on-chips (SoC). Moto G4/Plus units use Snapdragon 617 SoC and the baseband starts with M8952

2)The build contains no info except Google links to download from a Chinese download server. The google search also pulls up images of a device that looks like a G4 too..

3)The custom build version (kernel) has a lot of associated links to device clones/fake devices.

4)Model number usually is Moto G4/Moto G4 Plus, not G4.

5)Unless you've flashed custom firmware onto that device, official Moto G4 firmware only has security patches up to 1 July 2016 for Marshmallow 6.0.1.

So there's 2 possible ideas - either your device was flashed with firmware it wasn't meant to have and hence the issues you're having, or you've purchased a Moto G4 clone. Having looked at your device info, I'm inclined to think that you've bought a device clone/fake device. Where did you buy the device from? Or you've uploaded the wrong image...

I'd like to ask if you could run CPU-Z or DevCheck or any other good device analyser and see what CPU/RAM/device specifications you have, post the screenshots here?

For reference, I've attached the device information from a genuine Moto G4 Plus (bought directly from Motorola).
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] fr4nk32:

Yes, It's the right version.

I bought from a friend, he used it normally for some months, then he needed some fast cash, so I bought it from him, it didn't had any scratches and looked exatcly like a real Moto G4 Plus with 32GB internal memory, the fingerprint sensor works too.

I don't know if he tried to flash some wrong rom, but he never spoke about it.

I'll try to see it. But I'll try to sell or trade the device. I'll try to get a LG K10 2017. Thank you.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
Ah, okay - might be worth asking your friend where they bought the device from or if they flashed any firmware onto the device. I'm going to reserve judgement, it would be interesting to see the CPU-Z/Dev Check/AIDA64 results. Alternatively, you could try the AnTuTu Officer app from the Google Play store (as mentioned here with a guide to use the app: https://www.phonearena.com/news/How-to-tell-if-your-Android-device-is-a-fake-or-a-clone_id68473 )

Depending on the results, you may have to be careful if you wish to sell/trade it on, and be honest.

Bear in mind if you're attempting to root on stock Nougat (the Motorola builds), you must flash a custom kernel. Attempting to root the Nougat stock kernel will cause your device to soft bootloop. Rooting on Nougat based Motorola stock ROMs is more complex thanks to the more strictly enforced anti-rooting kernel compared to Marshmallow.

Assuming your bootloader is unlocked (if it's not, consult this guide: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=67031801&postcount=2 ) and I see you're on the Sept 2017 stock patch:

TWRP

Official builds for athene: https://dl.twrp.me/athene/ version 3.1.1 or later would suffice.

Alternatively, unofficial builds such as shreps' TWRP work well. I'm running TWRP 3.1.1 on my rooted XT1642 with magisk 15.1 and NPJS25.93-14-13 (Dec 2017 security patch). Link for shreps' TWRP: https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/development/recovery-twrp-3-0-2-r3-moto-g4-g4-plus-t3494337

Custom kernels - choose one or the other

ElementalX v1.04 (for stock Motorola 7.0) : https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/development/kernel-elementalx-g4-0-01-t3424836

Vegito 7.1 https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/development/kernel-vegito-kernel-1-0-13-september-t3461021

magisk

magisk 15.1 is working on my device as mentioned previously: https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445

To combine it all together, a useful guide is here: https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/guide-root-moto-g4-plus-supersu-android-t3587918 Instead of flashing SuperSU, flash magisk. You may wish to cross-reference the guide with this post I wrote: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=75007554&postcount=16

I've used these methods to establish root, and this root is stable - I've not experienced performance or stability issues using these methods to root my device. To clarify:

Device: XT1642, 2GB RAM, 32GB

ROM: Stock Motorola NPJS25.93-14-13, Dec 2017 security patch.

Recovery: shreps' TWRP 3.1.1

Kernel: ElementalX v1.04

Root manager: magisk 15.1 (with magisk hide enabled)

So long as you remember to flash the custom kernel in TWRP before you flash your root manager of choice, you'll be in good stead. As always, ensure you have a backup to fall back to.

The numbers are relative, so if you don't use display that much what is seen in your screen, other processes came up.

You also didn't start battery monitoring from 100%,so it seems you're flashing the rom right before this screen was taken.

Just give it one charging cycle to settle and see how it works.

You should reach a high screen on time only if you use your display many hours. If your device is most time in standby over some days your stats will be like this.
