Hi Tim,

I had the same, but resolved it by getting the right zImage file.

Also change the startup.txt. REMOVE boot2 and replace with bootlinux

Make sure you have setup your SD CARD with a LINUX PC or a decent disk partitioning tool that allows you to create the correct partition types.

You need 2 primary partitions, the first is WIN95 FAT filesystem, the other is a unix ext3 file system. You unpack the application bz2 file there. The zImage startup.txt file need to be installed on the win95 partition, best to place in a folder called linux but its up to you. Just keep them together along with a harret bootloader.

I didn't get any great success with the harret bootloader I pulled with the qtopia image. Just give error message or asks for default.txt file. Used a different bootloader and it rocked.

Qtopia is quite good once you get it up, found all function worked nicely. But it does have the occational hang, well I have on my blueangel.

WIFI, BLUETOOTH, USBNetwork, Modem, all fuctional.

Thinks can only get better. :D

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PackElend:
I'm quiet a noob in regard to logcat. I got it to work and my logs seem to be usable but I don't really know what I did.

Based on endless reading and trying I figured out that that I can retrieve logs as soon as logcat viewer is connected to my phone. There are multiple viewers on available as discussed in stackoverflow- android desktop log viewer or do it only by the means of ADB (in conjunction with LineageOS bug report).

Furthermore I found good explanation about the log levels and message types.

But what do you do when you on the move with phone. I know there a plenty of apps. I used aLogcat root but it exported only a fraction of the live log, why ever?

mLogcat allowed me to save huge logs what began before I connected it to a desktop PC. I cannot explain how that is possible sine any other viewer shows only live logs and may shows only a limited number of log entries.

So I would like to know how is the logging process started and how it is ended. Is there any command or does an logcat app need to run. If an app is necessary, does it have to run in the foreground or background?

Is there any nice wireless car charger on the market for S8+?

Looking for one that's hold my phone for Google maps and so on and has the ability to fast charge my phone.

Any recommendations from you guys out there?

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] CoolTommy:
I own this one and it does not charge when the screen is on while using Google Maps/Waze. It keeps just enough power flowing for the battery not to go down, however. So as long as you have a full battery, this works great. Worthless if you want to use Maps and charge a drained battery.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] bwillet:
As the S8+ doesn't fast charge with the screen on, it's pretty much a bust. In the past I've rigged a wireless charging pad to a proclip universal charging pad, and it worked great. with my Note 5 and S7 Edge. Using the same charger and apps, the S8+ slowly loses charge (Waze, screen always on, and Spotify streaming). It was a slow drain, and would probably be fine with just Waze, but the full monty was too much for it to handle. Very depressing.

But, as I'm now using Android Auto, wireless charging in the car just isn't as important anyway. So I took my proclip mount and used Sugru to build the USB-C cable into the proclip. I just slide it into the proclip and bang, connected to AA and charges. Not fast charge, but the car puts out enough juice to gain at least 10% per hour with the above activities. Screen being off helps tons I bet.

[Moto Z2 Play  Questions & Answers] pizza_pablo:
After months of "which phone next?", I was solidly set on the X⁴.

While researching this purchase, I found the unlocked, for all US carriers, Z2 Play.

Dilemma revisited...

Is the Z2 Play worth the extra $100?

It does have double the internal storage and ups the RAM by 1GB, so it could easily be justified, with that.

Big concern, will Moto Actions, Voice and Display be the same, on both of these as it is on the Moto X Pure Edition?

I'm really hooked on the custom wakeup word and reading my text to me, while driving.

I'd appreciate opinions and other 'vs.' thoughts.
[Moto Z2 Play  Questions & Answers] kiden:
Hey man, Moto Actions, Voice, and Display are all present on the Z2P. The big difference that you need to think about is that the X4 is 5.2 IPS, has a dual camera and no mods. Meanwhile the Z2P is 5.5 AMOLED, single camera, and you can use mods.
[Moto Z2 Play  Questions & Answers] pizza_pablo:
Unfortunately, there is no custom wakeup word in Moto Voice. I played with the app at best buy and it seems to only have 'show me' commands, but I bought Z2 unlocked version on swappa anyways.

Now, I have a 6P 128 and a Moto X Pure 32 to sell.

I'll keep my Moto X Pure 64 as a backup.

ETA, got the wife an X4 and the battery life is just as great as the Z2 Play.

I've had the Z2 Play for almost 2 months and with same daily usage, the battery life far exceeds the MXPE and 6P.
[Moto Z2 Play  Questions & Answers] G_Man18:
Hey Pablo, after another month, do you have any words of wisdom on preference between the Z2 and X4? I doubt that I would buy any mods for the Z2, but I like the storage capacity it offers. I will definitely root the phone also and it looks like Z2 is ahead in that area right now also. On the other hand, I like the water resistance, display screen, and dual cameras of the X4. I am not having huge problems with my XPE now; battery life is not great and internal storage is jammed full. So I would like to get a new phone, probably by February. Thank you in advance for your time and thoughts.
[Moto Z2 Play  Questions & Answers] LegendaryScoop:
After reviewing both, I've determined the Z2 Play as the far superior option. It's faster (even though not on paper), the camera's better, the software's better, and it has a nicer AMOLED screen.

[Moto Z2 Play  Questions & Answers] G_Man18:
Thanks again Pablo for your thoughtful review/comparison. It did help me decide on the Z2P, and they are marked down again on the Motorola site. Not quite as good as the Black Friday deal, but good enough for me to order one. Now I just need to read up on the best root method so I am ready to go when it gets here in a couple of days.
[Moto Z2 Play  Questions & Answers] fedorflasnik:
I've got my Z2 Play (4/64) a few months ago. My wife got new X4 (4/64) this christmas. Both phones has advantages and disadvantages. Z2 Play have a better screen (AMOLED) and X4 have a much much better camera (apart from Z2 Play, wich is rubbish in photoshooting...).
[Moto Z2 Play  Questions & Answers] emcom:
Another voice from me, I've bought both phones :

Moto X4:

+ better camera support on XDA (stock camera is OK, but modded GCam... is often better, especially low-light)

+ newer chipset (better LTE modem - 600 Mbit, Bluetooth 5.0, faster graphics)

+ longer foreseen future (as it's chosen by Google for its Project Fi)

+ water/dustproof

- smaller storage (I've just discovered that - having almost no custom apps, just Spotify and GCam plus e-banking) I have only about 5.5 GB left :(

- hybrid dual-sim tray

- microSD card can only be formatted as portable storage

- slightly less "snappy" device (but this is just an impression maybe, really hardly noticeable)

Moto Z2 Play:

+ bigger, more impressive screen

+ more RAM (so slightly "snappier", just a little bit)

+ more storage

+ Mods support

+ dual SIM and microSD support at the same time - no "hybrid" slot

- GCam currently not possible (and probably never will be), so camera is noticeably worse, despite of its 1.7 aperture and laser AF

- single main camera (well, I really love the wide-angle one on Moto X4)

- Lenovo already has broken its built-in equalizer after one of latest updates - not working (but at least it sounds really OK even without EQ...)

- worse LTE modem (300 Mbit)

Common for both phones :

+ great battery life !

+ really nice sound via headphones

+ great, highly sensitive FM radio tuner

+ fantastic design and build quality

- so-so support for now
[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] Sporkyz:
Is there a way to watch Netflix in hd on this phone? I understand that the issue is with the DRM level, is there a way to change it? Is anyone else having this problem?
[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] Ecto5:
Do you have the hd subscription?
[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] Sporkyz:
Yes, I have the 4k subscription, but if I look at any movie I don't see the little hd icon next to the title. Googling it I found out that this issue is related to the level of DRM the phone has which you can also find using the drminfo app. Are you not having this problem? Could you check your DRM level and tell me if I got a bad unit?
[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] philje123:
So I've googled it and it appears that Netflix use Google DRM called Widevine. Our devices do support Widevine 1.0 but unfortunately the second requirement is Netflix certification which unfortunately not all devices get.

There appears a way to bypass this where it tells Netflix servers that it's allowed to stream HD:

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] mistermojorizin:
I will try to copy my NANDROID Backups to my computer and it won't let me copy. I know how to fix it. Open ADB Shell, get root, and put in the magic command: "chmod -R 777 /data/media/0" However, I don't want to have to do this every time I make a backup. On my 6p, I had to only do this 1 time and then it was fine forever.

What's causing this to happen on the Pixel XL and how to avoid the permissions getting screwed up like this?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] CarteNoir:
TWRP just operates under different permissions sadly, I haven't found a way to fix it personally. The ADB shell works under different permissions when in TWRP than when in normal boot, and if you create or modify any files using ADB/File Manager while in TWRP, those files will have messed up permissions that make them hard to edit/move unless you reboot and chmod too. Took me a while to figure out why the internal SD backups I was pushing through TWRP were making my SD uneditable.
[General Topics] GreatArcStudios:
Hey everyone!

I've been a lurker here, and I thought an app I created would be useful to some people on here.

My app is called Equator Music Player. It's is completely free and aims to use YouTube's large library and wrap it all into a music experience, not a video experience. It's super easy to find that one song with the card design, and the app just looks good. It's a premium experience at no cost. I personally made it after getting annoyed at Spotify ads and after realizing how inconvenient and disjointed YouTube's music experience was.

Here's the website: greatarcstudios.github.io/Equator-site/

Go ahead and check it out. I'd love some feed back. It's Windows only as of right now. Porting to Mac is a bit hard because it's tied into a lot of Windows binaries, which would require a large rewrite. I'm looking into making a Wine port though.
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] aashi30:
I got this amazing offer on moto Z more than 50% off. Should i buy it. i read alot of reviews that battery life sucks or volte problem or Bluetooth or wifi problems i am just really confused. Should i just buy a mid tier phone with mid tier secs and forget the flagship of 2016.
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] Jeik:
I paid 400$ for it when I encountered a 50% reduction in August(it costs 800$ in Croatia) and I can tell you this:

If you don't care about battery life(which is logically not great since it's a 2650 mAh with a 1440p screen, but you do get a 5.2mm thin body),this phone can't be beaten by anything under 400$(I am the type of person who buys a phone and gets bored of it within a month, yet I still adore this device). The battery also charges from 0 to 100% in an hour and you can buy a battery mod if you really need a lot of juice on the go.
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] aashi30:
what other problems are you facing ?

how much screen on time are you getting ? are there any other problems ?
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] Jeik:
With a custom rom(and a full black theme) the on-screen time is a lot higher. Honestly, I don't count that much but I get through a regular day without issues(listen to music on my way to college, take a few pics here and there, go through the web, chat, play non-intensive games, listen to music on the way back). It definitely helps that the battery charges fast.
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] BengkelGawai:
Agree with above, just got mine 1 week ago for similar price. Obviously still tinkering but my opinion so far :

- If you are okay with bad battery life (max 4 hours SoT with stock rom & careful usage for me), it's a definite buy with that price.

- Mediocre camera can be fixed by using Google Camera HDR+ port for Snapdragon 820. It is recently ported and we can hope for better port in the future.

- If you are afraid of AMOLED burn in, there are many options to prevent it. Personally, I am using Tiles + Edge Gesture for non-root user.

- Major drawback is battery life, it can be fixed to some extent with custom rom & full dark theme as mentioned above. Or, try to find bargain for battery power pack. But, I just found out that using power pack will cause Doze never kick in, so battery drain is high. Seems installing NapTime to force doze while charging did the trick for me but still testing.
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] kingstu:
At that price if you don't want it let us know where to get it. With the Turbo Power adding just $79 if you really want very long battery life or the $49 for a slim Power Pack for long battery life you still have a good deal. It's a way to charge your phone differently it might make you a Z fan. I think mods are awesome and the battery mod can prolong the life and health of the internal battery using efficiency mode.
