How can use without root I download the app but it says adb something
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Teknick:
From the xda thread here:

Device Setup

Go to Settings >> Developer Options and enable USB Debugging.

Enable Developer Options by going to Settings >> About, finding the Build Number item and tapping it 7 times.​

Plug your device into your computer and accept the authorization request on it.

(Windows) You may need to install your device's drivers, available from the manufacturer's website.​

Windows Setup

Download the ADB ZIP for Windows: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip.

Extract the ZIP to an easily-accessible location (ie Desktop).

Open CMD.

Enter cd C:\path\to\extracted\folder\ to get to the folder you extracted ADB into. For instance, C:\Users\Zachary\Desktop\platform-tools\​

Running the Commands

In CMD/Terminal, run adb devices to make sure your device is seen.

Run these commands:

adb shell pm grant com.zacharee1.systemuituner android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS

adb shell pm grant com.zacharee1.systemuituner android.permission.DUMP

If neither of those commands has any output, then everything was successful and you can use the app.​

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] misteurz:
Hi,

Since 1 or 2 months, my galaxy s8 lags so much...

I have to apply "device maintenance", to make it fast again.

The problem appeared at the same moment that I began to use Android auto.

Do you know what I can do?

Thanks

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] RossTeagan:
If it lags, usually means that something (an app) is using a lot of RAM memory. You can install a device manager to see which apps are using the most RAM memory and try to not use them anymore (if you don't need them).

Or you can do a factory reset to restore your device to its original settings by following these steps https://www.unlockunit.com/help/knowledgebase/hard-reset-samsung/

You say you have to apply "device maintenance" to make it fast again, are you talking about battery, and then "Save Power"? if so have you gone down to the bottom of that screen and modified the unmonitored apps and always sleeping apps?

Uninstall Android Auto and see if the problem resolves. I stopped using AA because it wasn't playing well. I use Drivemode instead

I have xav-ax100 and use S8.. My problem is sometimes the screen turn black and Android auto stop. I think is something with the temperature.. Somebody have a similar problem?

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RunNgun42:
I had to trade my S6 in 2016 because I couldnt stand not being able to flash custom roms via recovery, and at the time it was deemed nearly impossible to bootloader unlock an S6, especially since dev's were losing interest working around Exynos chip vs Qualcomm. But what about today? I see some threads talking about roms and TWRP and stuff which makes me think this phone was finally cracked? Is that so? Or is it only very particular variants? I remember there was like 1 model S6 that you could properly root if it had a very specific version of Android on it at the time, but if it was ever upgraded it was locked.

So which phones are bootloader/recovery installable? And what do I need to know version wise before buying one? (like are some versions blacklisted, to stay away from)
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forumber2:
Bootloader is not locked on S6 except AT&T variant.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RunNgun42:
but it used to be right? I had a verizon S6 and it was basically impossible to unlock as I recall. Is this a new development?
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rensakuken:
Hello all

I've had the z5 now for 2 years and repeatedly find that USB's stop working after a while, to get them to work i often find I have to bend them whilst they're connected to the phone. This is really frustrating as I need to keep buying replacements. Has anyone else experienced this or something similar? It isn't the case that I'm being overly rough with them either, they'll just stop working.
[X Style (Pure) General] acejavelin:
I take no credit for this, thank the Motorola-Firmware-Team on Android File Host, and you can follow any leaked firmware on their Twitter feed.

I no longer have a Moto X Pure Edition, so I can't personally vouch for this firmware, but it seems like it is a totally legit full factory firmware image of Nougat NPH25.200-22 for flashing in fastboot.

This is the "official" full factory image of Nougat NPH25.200-22 and NOT the OTA file. It can be used for a clean flash and to relock the bootloader which is recommended to pass SafetyNet API checks if you are planning on staying stock and not rooting.

Flashfile.xml shows: version="clark_retus-user 7.0 NPH25.200-22 21 release-keysM8992_1255331.29.01.88.09R", MD5 matches, and all dates are correct.

This is ONLY for the Moto X Pure Edition, Retail US (RETUS) variant. I have no information on any other firmware or device.

Tested and verified as official Nougat factory ROM image by [MENTION=5725843]Andromendous[/MENTION]

This image is NOT flashable in TWRP, like all factory images it is flashed with fastboot in the bootloader... How to flash:

fastboot oem lock begin (if wanting to re-lock bootloader, othewise use `fastboot oem fb_mode_set`)
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

[MENTION=2001582]acejavelin[/MENTION]: Since you have been one of the guru's on this phone, can this file be flashed in fastboot directly if I am on stock MM android December update rooted with Magisk and TWRP installed? I just want to make sure that when I am ready to take the plunge, I can take the minimal work procedure since I factory wipe after all major updates anyway.
[X Style (Pure) General] AsquareX:
Does this mean people who haven't received 7.0 OTA can flash this ROM and get Nougat without any complications such as corrupted bootloader and stuff? Also read multiple times that downgrading to 6.0 and again upgrading to 7.0 via OTA corrupts the bootloader leading to hard brick (which is now solver using external SD), will flashing this would solve this too?
[X Style (Pure) General] acejavelin:
Yes... This is the pure stock factory image for Nougat, it can be flashed, used to lock the bootloader, fix the "preflash validation" issues, etc. like any factory image.

There should be no issue applying it over a downgraded version, as long as you flash the entire image.
[X Style (Pure) General] aybarrap1:
Great! I plan on holding on to this phone for about another 6 months or so and might as well get the update. Will probably go over to stock nougat in December. Custom ROMs just always seem to have at best some minor issue(s) that prevents me from sticking with them.
[X Style (Pure) General] StankFiss:
Dude Ace you are the f-ing man. Thanks for the find.
[X Style (Pure) General] Andromendous:
I flashed it manually while on Hashbangs LOS rom. I was stuck on 6.0 modem and tried to just flash the modem, which made me lose sim service. I then flashed the entire imagine manually and booted just fine.

Now I'm back to LOS with 7.0 modem and so far so good. Hashbang is doing a great job, he's already cleaned multiple bugs just today.
[X Style (Pure) General] schneid:
i am already on 7.0 but putting this away for the future. Can you flash the zipped XML or do you need to unzip and flash each piece individually? Thanks.
[X Style (Pure) General] acejavelin:
It's a factory image... Have to flash each piece manually with fastboot, this is not a flashable TWRP or other recovery image
[X Style (Pure) General] andromobilogy:
So no difference between flashing this and a possible future OTA update one? I downgraded from custom 7.1 to stock 6 and now been weeks waiting for this 7 OTA update which probably wont even see the 2017.
[X Style (Pure) General] acejavelin:
We don't know that for sure... NPH25.200-22 is what has been rolling out to Sprint, T-Mobile, and AT&T devices, but it seems that Verizon users are getting NPH25.200-23 according to one verified (via screen shot) report on Lenovo's official forum.

The issue is we know the Moto OTA server keeps track of what device get's what version, if you flash this it won't know you have it so if a future OTA update comes out, you might be offered it via push and will have to wait until it's available by pull.
[X Style (Pure) General] Andromendous:
Yes. There's a huge difference. With this you wont brick your phone.
[X Style (Pure) General] CLETjB:
Can we Re-lock bootloader with this version?

AND...

If you flash this version NPH25.200-23, will you still be able to install a SIM from another carrier, say Sprint, T-Mobile, or AT&T, and not be pigeon holed into a specific wireless Plan from VZW with their own Propietary APPs like VZW Cloud?
[X Style (Pure) General] acejavelin:
Yes, you can relock... unless you have already applied NPH25.200-23, otherwise you should be able to relock from ANY version out there currently.

We don't know what's up with NPH25.200-23 for sure though... recently Moto has been doing "different" versions for Verizon users that don't seem to get to anyone else, we also see it in the Moto G5+, and we don't know the differences either. Most likely it's just a minor VZW specific change and can be ignored. If the update does get pushed later, you should have no issues taking the OTA update when on this firmware, it is the official factory image.
[X Style (Pure) General] ghitus:
@ acejavelin

I know that I'm a bit OT, but I think that this thread is the most suitable for my request: do you know if there is a nougat factory image available also for the xt1572?

Thanks in advance,

Gaetano.

[X Style (Pure) General] acejavelin:
As I stated in the first post... no, I have idea or information about any other images for other variants and I suggest following MotoFirmware123 on Twitter as that is the best place to find leaked firmware. Motonovo has gotten very tight on letting firmware get out, but if it becomes available this is likely where it will come from, IF it ever gets leaked.
[X Style (Pure) General] Oaklands:
Just curious. I recently moved on to a Note 8 and want to give my son my Moto X Pure. Does this file put default recovery on the phone as well? I tried to factory reset it last night (had it rooted with TWRP installed) and now it will only boot into TWRP. I just want it all stock for him.

Thanks
[X Style (Pure) General] acejavelin:
Yes, it is an official stock firmware image... if properly flashed with fastboot it will restore the device to 100% factory conditions, including recovery.
[X Style (Pure) General] Oaklands:
Thank you. His phone is now ready.
[X Style (Pure) General] osk4rin:
Finally !Thanks, man!

Now I just flash via fastboot and avoid all the OTA updates process.

you are the man!
[X Style (Pure) General] acejavelin:
I know, and it's a poor choice for Lenovo to leave people without those files but what can you do? They leak out sometimes though, although that is getting less and less frequent, so hopefully in time...
[X Style (Pure) General] hometech99:
Agreed.

I dont know how long they are going to support, but I hope they give full firmware of last update...but who knows.

I was refurbishing 3 phones for sale. Now I cant lock bootloader on 2 of them..so novice cant buy now (they'll wonder why android pay doesn't work, etc.)
[X Style (Pure) General] DaBunny:
On 25.200-22, rooted and with TWRP recovery and bootloader unlocked. I'd like to get to 25.201.1 and be able to pick up future updates. Is there any way to do that? If I unroot and flash stock recovery I can take an OTA, or do I need to lock bootloader too? If I take the OTA, will I be able to re-unlock (if I have to lock) re-root, etc?

Thanks in advance.
[X Style (Pure) General] acejavelin:
You need to be purely stock, but you do not have to lock the bootloader. I would suggest flashing the complete firmware in the first post, do NOT lock the bootloader, then accept all OTA updates offered which should get you to the current release.

Anything less than a clean flash could result in a failed OTA and potential soft-brick, or worse.
[X Style (Pure) General] hometech99:
No word on a full firmware based on the A0.52 bootloader?
[X Style (Pure) General] acejavelin:
There is no word on any newer firmware images... Honestly, it's a wonder we get any images anymore.

Sorry, but chances are not good of getting a newer version anytime soon.
[X Style (Pure) General] ipulaski:
Finally got Nougat today! yay!!
[X Style (Pure) General] ChiefIlliniwek5:
I'm pretty sure I've read through nearly this entire thread and have done thread searches for the following so I hope I'm not asking a question already answered......

I'm currently running a Nougat AICP Rom based on MM firmware with bootloader unlocked, rooted, and Magisk installed. In order to flash this stock image, do I need to unroot and uninstall Magisk, or will the whole installation process take care of wiping all of that out so that it can flash properly? From what I have read, it does not sound like I need to re-lock the bootloader and that I can keep it unlocked by using the alternate fastboot commands.

Just trying to make sure I have all my bases covered before I take the plunge to avoid bricking. Thanks in advance!
[X Style (Pure) General] DaBunny:
No expert here, but I'm fairly certain you do not need to unroot or uninstall Magisk. I just successfully followed this procedure a second time last night on my unlocked/rooted/Magisked phone. Mine's stock vs AICP, but I can't see how that'd matter.
[X Style (Pure) General] annoyingduck:
When flashing a full factory image you don't need to do anything in preparation other than any backups you would like to do. The factory image is literally over writing everything on the phone (all data, system, and partitions). Whether or not you want to actually wipe data is up to you, you can choose to omit the fastboot wipe command and keep your data intact, though I don't recommend that. And also remember on Moto phones some fastboot commands will fail (like the modem), just run them again until they pass. And if I remember correctly there is either a bootloader or a partition command that always fails you can ignore it and it's okay.
[X Style (Pure) General] ChiefIlliniwek5:
Thanks for all the help! Flash went perfectly and I am having INCREDIBLE battery life compared to the latest AICP ROM I was running and much snappier. The loss of a few customization options certainly was a great trade off.
[X Style (Pure) General] DutchScrap:
Hi. Just wondering whether loading this would fix my Moto Display issue.

After installing newer version of Moto Display it is failing. I even performed a FDR but that did not resolve the issue. I thought it was only an app update, but somehow it destroyed Moto Display, it keeps switching off.

Just very unclear why installing this newer version would break it.

BTW, I have a Moto X Style (Europe) and running NPHS25.200-15-8, TWRP and rooted.

Thx ;)
[X Style (Pure) General] oatbrandroid:
I've unlocked the bootloader on my XT1575 in the hopes of installing Lineage, but that seems to have failed utterly so I'm trying to re-lock the bootloader so I can use Google Pay and the rest on stock. fastboot getvar all returns boot fingerprint: S25.200-22-1/1:user/release-keys, but every time I try to begin flashing Nougat NPH25.200-22 I get "(bootloader) Preflash validation failed".

Is the issue here the 22-1 rather than 22 image? Do I need to find 22-1 firmware for this to work?

Apologies for the noob question. I've read through this thread and am a bit dizzy -- some people seem to indicate that the newest firmware isn't available online and others seem to disagree. Any advice would be appreciated, and if it turns out that I'm stuck with an unlocked bootloader I can certainly abide.
[X Style (Pure) General] Bill720:
The difference between them

-22 is the Sprint version; -23 is the everything-else version. Each gets an update that covers for the Bluetooth and WiFi patch. If you install 23, you can always install 22, but if you install 22, you can never install 23 (because we don't have an image for it). 22 and 23 are practically identical (as far as we can tell) and both work fine regardless of service provider.
[X Style (Pure) General] oatbrandroid:
Ah -- okay, thank you very much, that clears up a lot of confusion for me.

But in that case, can you suggest why I would be getting a preflash validation error when I reflash 22 to lock the bootloader on my phone?
[X Style (Pure) General] Bill720:
Onward is the only way forward

From what I can tell, there might be no way around that. It should still work fine though (except for possibly the locking part).
[X Style (Pure) General] siskiou:
Hi all,

my Moto X Pure (US version) ist still on the FW it came with (MM 6.0) and Baseband version

M8992_1255331.29.01.88.02R SUPER NA. It's rooted, and has TWRP installed.

-Can I update to Nougat directly, without any newer security certificate updates etc?

-Should sim card (currently Sprint) and SD card be removed for the update?

-Will I still be able to switch carriers in the US, and use sim cards in Europe, as before?

-Can I use the same code I got from Motorola originally to unlock the bootloader again, if I want to?

Thanks for your help in advance!
[X Style (Pure) General] kb8no:
Yes

No

Yes

Yes
[X Style (Pure) General] siskiou:
Thanks!

Will the sd card be wiped/formatted by the update?
[X Style (Pure) General] kb8no:
Internal wiped/formatted. Not external. When you flash you can tell it to leave bootloader unlocked if you choose. Read directions. Remember you will now have N firmware so any custom ROM you use MUST be made for N firmware. eg If you want to install Lineage 14.1 or 15.1 it MUST be unofficial.
[X Style (Pure) General] siskiou:
Thanks again! I'm planning on using Magisk to re-root and stay with the stock ROM.
[X Style (Pure) General] siskiou:
Everything worked out fine, and my phone is running nice and snappy.

Thanks for the detailed instructions!

One thing I really dislike about Nougat is the white notification drop down, though.

I can't find a way to turn that black. Substratum doesn't work for me and I can't find anything else.
[X Style (Pure) General] svensudels:
Just wanted to say thanks for this.. Worked really well for me. Also wanted to add that if u want to take the OTA updates u need to lock the bootloader. Otherwise, updates will download but recovery yields an error when trying to install the update. I learned this the hard way.... Don't be like me...
[X Style (Pure) General] acejavelin:
This isn't true... The state of your bootloader (locked or unlocked) is not relevant in this device.

I believe you had a problem related to installing OTA's, but the bootloader being unlocked wasn't it.
[X Style (Pure) General] speedingcheetah:
is there TWRP flash-able version of latest stock moto rom?

edit: O this is the wrong variant. I need clark, not Retus.
[X Style (Pure) General] stevejohnson42:
Thanks for this...I was tempted to try it again, but like dark theme...I am currently on unofficial Nuclearom...it has a basic theme / color engine built in besides being a rock solid rom

When I flash stock ROM 7.0 in my moto x style XT1572 Indian variant from this link https://firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Moto X Style/Stock/ I got one problem, I have no network at all and baseband version show unknown, please help me to find correct ROM
[X Style (Pure) General] jason2678:
Is NON-HLOS.bin failing to flash? Sometimes it takes a couple of tries. All steps must complete successfully.
[X Style (Pure) General] vivekkumar01:
Yes, when first time it get failed but 2nd attempt it get successful, then after reboot no network coverage
[X Style (Pure) General] kb8no:
Make sure every file flashes. Check each one carefully. If file fails, flash it again until it takes. The other file that sometimes fails the first time is the radios, name not available to me just now, sorry. This may be the problem.
[X Style (Pure) General] stevejohnson42:
Certified

The last time I did this I observed that in the Play Store - the device shows up as "Uncertified" -- With the unofficial NucleaROM ( what I have as DD at the moment ) - it is "Certified"

Granted - I had rooted and put xposed on the stock

Anyone just installed the stock without root or just rooted it ? How does the device show up as ?

I was surprised - would have figured a clean install of this would have resulted in a Certified device - which is basically why I am asking - debating on trying it again without xposed - but don't want the hassle of trying to side load apps that won't load via PlayStore because device not showing up as Certified

Also - any experience with Certified / Uncertified ? I seem to recall I used the same gapps for both installs

Google's explanation - https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/7165974?hl=en

One workaround I found / have not tried it : https://teleread.org/2018/03/27/goo...from-the-play-storeand-how-to-work-around-it/
[X Style (Pure) General] annoyingduck:
Any device with an unlocked bootloader will be labeled as uncertified in the Playstore. The flash of the rom has nothing to do with it. If you unlock your bootloader, you are uncertified. Google implemented this over a year ago. Magisk or custom kernels are the only work around.
[X Style (Pure) General] stevejohnson42:
Thanks - I will have to retry at some time - my recollection was I had Magisk installed ; at this point - no time and the unofficial NucleaROM is rock solid ; so - not a priority
