Stock Nougat 7.0 needs ElementalX kernel (for Nougat 7.0) to root
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] almundo:
What I meant is "no way to root without wiping data". Seems like elemental also requires TWRP or similar, which needs an unlocked bootloader which, if enabled, will wipe all my data.

Did I miss something?

thanks!
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] zeomal:
Rooting requires an unlocked bootloader.

Unlocking the bootloader requires wiping data.

So, unless you find a kernel exploit (like they do on Sony devices), you HAVE to wipe data to gain root.

Is it possible contacting your network provider and ask if they can provide a list of calls to/from your device, or if you've got an online account, perhaps log in and see if they're saved there?

How to Root Noto G4+ npjs25.93-14-4

Hi I am newbie here and I want to root my device kindly share the step by step method to root npjs25 93-14.4.

Thanks in advance.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
For rooting, follow this guide https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/guide-root-moto-g4-plus-supersu-android-t3587918 (for rooting with SuperSU) or this slightly more up to date one covering SuperSU or magisk: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=72496111&postcount=270

Be aware that rooting will involve you wiping your device (as mentioned with unlocking your bootloader) - which may include your internal storage. Back up and keep those backups off your device until you're done.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] Mohitpahariya1:
I want to confirm that this method is for npjs25.93.14-4? This method is safe and will my device get root access after follow all steps given above..:)
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
Yes, I've used the steps on my device (XT1642 running NPJS25.93-14.4) without issue (I've even mentioned this fact in the 2nd guide I linked...) Either guide will work, the key thing when rooting under Nougat (with Moto G4 devices) is to flash a custom kernel (such as ElementalX) before rooting. If you do not flash a custom kernel whilst on the stock Motorola ROM, attempts to root will cause your device to bootloop.

Any more questions about rooting, please post them in the guide thread mentioned above. https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/guide-root-moto-g4-plus-supersu-android-t3587918 or if you wish, the help thread https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/help/help-thread-question-noob-friendly-t3526598

Guys i have downloaded all the stuff related to root moto g4 plus npjs25.93.14.4.

kindly take my pc on teamviewer and help me please.

anybody want my teamviewer id or password kindly reply on this post.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
Firstly - though I understand you want to root your device, do not blindly hand out your teamviewer ID/password, especially if the Teamviewer software is installed on a PC with your personal/sensitive data on it. Be very cautious.

Secondly, with the bootloader unlock errors, just checking that you've followed the procedure to obtain a key and toggled OEM unlock (as described here: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=67031801&postcount=2 ?) Also, are you applying the OEM unlock key whilst your device is booted in the bootloader?

Are you able to reboot to the bootloader, attach your device to your computer, and in adb type 'fastboot getvar all' - without the quotation marks - and post the output here, please? You may wish to omit your IMEI and serial number in the output.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] Mohitpahariya1:
After Reboot i got a message attached below

Dear i follow all the steps mentioned above and after finish unlock while restarting a message appeared like bad id key etc etc. I attached a image for your reference. Kindly help what should i do next. Is it ok? my mobile is unlocked or not? Kindly confirm.

https://ibb.co/m68Onk
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
That message indicates your device bootloader is now unlocked. You'll want to follow the rest of the rooting on Nougat guide (starting with flashing TWRP in step 2) for rooting your device.

If you wish to hide the bootloader warning, you can flash a custom logo.bin (a selection can be found in this thread https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/themes/customized-logo-t3451349)

If you wish, please post your further queries in the rooting guide or the help thread as mentioned previously.

On the s8, wanted to get opinions of people whom tried the stock launcher for some time, then moved to NOVA launcher,

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Andrewtst:
Nova launcher is much smoother everywhere but I back to TouchWiz. Love the new TouchWiz.

Sorry Nova you not my preferable for this moment.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] ProzakVizaq:
I have been using the Nova Prime since its release.

I always install it on any smartphone first of all. However, this time I gave a small chance to the new Samsung UI and was a few days with it.

No way, the Nova is way better/smoother.

Futhermore, the Nova launcher equalizes

the performance of any smartphone. For instance, my previous Note 3 and 4 got the same smoothness with the Nova as compared to the S8+.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] d.cortez:
Nova for me; much more flexibility and control of my home screen. widget placement is very limited with TW, not so with Nova. and now Nova allows you to swipe left and show Google Now. my (simple/clean) work layout is below :). the only drawback using Nova vs TW is limited (if any) use of TW widgets.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] JazonX:
On Your homescreen screenshot,

- Which weather widget is that on the top right corner?

- Is the Google Icon on Top left a part of the Wallpaper, or is it a Widget?

- Which Clock, and Agenda widget is it on the bottom left?

I Really like the way you have organized your homescreen. Neat and Clean, and quite informative as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] d.cortez:
weather graphic and temp is widget from Today Weather app. location and current condition is a custom Zooper Widget.

this is also a custom, but simple Zooper widget; it's comprised of a bitmap that when pressed, launches Google Now

clock is a single Zooper widget using the Samsung Clock font. the agenda is also a Zooper widget that includes the next alarm, and my next appointment. it uses predefined xml code included in the app.

thanks for the compliment. this is basically all i need to see when i'm working. :) as an FYI, the navbar buttons are from a substratum theme and [MENTION=6963384]Tigerhoods[/MENTION] 35pt high navbar overlay. also, my Nova desktop grid is 16x11; this allows for precise placement of widgets so i can get the widget layout exactly like i want it.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] s327374:
Yep, gave Samsung Experience a go for a while and liked it a lot, but returned to Nova. It caters for my setup tastes... Which is the main reason why I'm an Android user and haven't switched to Apple, ever. Don't really notice the speed, but I really enjoy the dock pages and infinity scroll rotation - so that I can have two or three docks for my quick to apps. Added to that the edge pull down, and I am a pretty happy NOVA user.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] zorniki:
Nova is much more versatile and slimmer in comparison. I use it since my Oneplus One and haven't looked back since. Plus I can upload the current config to the cloud and restore it as it was on any mobile phone in mere minutes, with widgets and everything.

I'll not even mention gestures, Tesla unread options and the likes.

Nova takes the cake any day imho! :)
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] mrkulpy:
For me stock wins. I tried Nova prime and pixel 2 launcher, both lagged noticeably compared to stock.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] ekerbuddyeker:
Actually if you set up your home screen on TouchWiz/experience then 'import' into Nova, it imports the Samsung clock/weather widget. Weirdly never used to, but it did for me the other day

I am a loyal NOVA guy and if you like vanilla android feel its the way to go. Ive had Nova Prime for some years now and i cant use any other launchers.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkohan:
Hi folks,

I'm about to pump some life into my 2013 Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 3G (espresso3g/P5100), but I'm kinda stuck now.

I want to flash LineageOS 13, which is why I'd need TWRP. And I just can't install TWRP because not a single PC on earth vouchsafes to recognize my tab. It's plain vanilla, bootloader not unlocked, not rooted, Android 4.0.4 ICS.

I tried (of course with USB debugging enabled & in Odin/Download mode, not in stock recovery)

- Odin 3.12 / 3.10 on a 2015 ASUS notebook w/Win10, not recognized

- Odin 3.10 on a 2005 Dell notebook w/WinXP, not recognized

- Heimdall on a 2013 Samsung notebook w/Ubuntu 16.04, not recognized

What are my options now? Do I have the slightest chance to flash Lineage + Gapps or TWRP via stock recovery, or is there a magic trick to make Heimdall recognize my tab? Do you have any ideas?

EDIT: Kingroot & the TWRP app from Play Store finally got me what I wanted. If anyone goes through the same on a vanilla Tab2, note that the stock OpenGapps package doesn't quite cut it for us because of the limited system storage. Gapps ARM 6.0 micro worked out for me. Not a big deal to resolve, but it can get you a few stressy moments bc you'll have to redownload & move the Gapps package to your tab, which isn't that easy if you can't get a computer connected and can't get a file browser installed either. You're better off installing suitably sized Gapps straight away.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] champ1919:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaikokujinkyofusho:
I've been trying to find information on how to make some sort of restorable image of my stock phone (nexus 5x) before I do anything to it. I don't want to root it so that seems to really limit my options as most of the imaging options seem to involve rooting.

I was hoping to be able to use something like dd, someone suggested over on android forums which seems logical to me but I have run into another problem that everytime I boot into recovery adb on my computer (Lubuntu v17 if that helps) stops seeing my phone (ie adb devices yeilds nada) and even when it does see my phone there is nothing in the /dev/blocks/ dir that resembles what I think my phone should look like, its all symb links named like 7:0-8:82 pointing to things like loop and sda.

I am guessing that my phone is one of the sd?s (there is sda-sdf) but as adb is not seeing any devices I get "no such file or dir" when I try something like

dd if=/dev/block/sdf of=nexus5x.pit bs=4096

I would really like to make a clean image of this phone before I try anything so any thoughts would be appreciated!

[Tasker Tips & Tricks] KrazyKanuk36:
I have tasker and zooper widget pro that I have a wifi and bluetooth toggle for. The icon is one color when off and turns another when turned on, that is working. I added a location task that is set to my home location that turns off wifi when I get 100m from my location. They both work but the location task don't change icon color. Is there a way to get it so when I leave my location it turns off my wifi as well as change zooper widget pro icon from the on state to the off state?
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] alluringreality:
To me this seems like more of a question about Zooper than Tasker, so I'd think you might get better feedback somewhere focused on Zooper. When I was using Power Toggles there was a particular setup that needed to be done in that program, in order for it to reflect the current state and work as I intended with both Tasker and manual setting changes. I think Zooper can work with Tasker variables, so that's one item I'd probably look into, but I didn't spend enough time with Zooper before moving on to KLWP to really address your question. Here is one site Google returns that might relate to the situation.
