Yes sure bro.. Take your time and do check :D
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Psicovirus:
Ok, I've tried and I'm updating.

RR doesn't make my phone heat less and the battery keeps draining also AOSP 8.0. Seems like my problem isn't software related. I've yet to try the stock ROM so I can know for sure.

Thanks for the suggestion mate.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stonny20:
Bro then there might me some other issues that is not related with custom ROMs . Do check flashing stock ROM with out root, and I hope someone more experienced might help you :rolleyes:

Unlocked phone & Upgrading to HTC ROM! HTC_WWE_1.33.422.1_4.1.13.51_03.07.90_Ship.exe

Hello All,

my HTC S620 is Tmobile branded but is unlocked (currently using FIDO Sim).

I plan on upgrading from the Tmobile 1.22.531.4 ROM to the New HTC WWE 1.33 Rom. Does any know if the upgrade will break my current unlock and make me have to pay to re-unlock it again?

Thanks for the help guys.

No it won't relock your phone...least it shouldn't. If it did then I would imagine there would be a few people here complaining that it relocked their phone

[Maze Alpha Questions & Answers] Gargarospo:
Hello everybody,

in the first days of september I received the Maze Alpha 6GB RAM that I bought on Gearbest. Everything went well until the first days of november, when the flash and the rear camera began occasionally to disappear. I mean that it often happened that any camera app could take selfies only, and any torch app couldn't switch on the flash.

I imagined that it could be a software problem, so I did a factory reset, but the problem didn't disappeared.

So I flashed the official stock ROM that one can download from the Maze Mobile's website (http://www.mazemobile.com/download-center). It didn't serve either, but after a while I realized that it almost surely is a hardware problem. Maybe there wasn't a good contact between inner components: applying some pressure in the camera and flash area it looks like everything got back to normal.

Well, almost everything: since I flashed the ROM downloaded from the Maze Mobile's website, the real problem is that the maximum RAM available shown now is 4 GB (as in the recently used apps list's activity, for instance). What's more -and this is the worst part- more often than not my Alpha reboots on its own, when things go well. When things go wrong, it just hangs showing a black screen and I need to press the power button for some seconds to let it reboot (I need to realize that the device hung, of course).

I'm afraid that the ROM downloadable from Maze Mobile's web site fits the 4GB RAM model only

. I didn't even think to this possibility, since there's no warning on Maze Mobile's website about it.

In the very last few days I exchanged a few messages with Maze Mobile support, but it looks like that since last friday their e-mailbox is full. I'm trying to understand if they can publish on their website an official stock ROM for the 6GB RAM model too.

While I try to restore the thread with Maze Mobile support, I ask here if anybody already has a ROM fitting the 6GB RAM Alpha, or at least if anyone can give me some advice about restoring the full visibility of the 6GB RAM on my device.

Have a good week.
[Maze Alpha Questions & Answers] pja1985430:
Those who flashed their 6GB RAM with the official stock ROM from Maze mobile website experienced the same thing you have now. That means that ROM is only compatible with the 4GB RAM version of Maze Alpha. What you will have to do before getting some help from Maze support is to try and request for help of those who have 6GB RAM to upload it somewhere you can download it.

Meanwhile , you made a mistake by not saving your firmware before doing flashing the ROM.
[Maze Alpha Questions & Answers] Gargarospo:
Yes, you are undoubtedly right, but since Maze Mobile published one ROM only on their website, without writing any hint about the target model, I thought that it would have fit both models. Anyway, that ROM isn't downloadable from Maze Mobile's website anymore.

It's what I did by writing "I ask here if anybody already has a ROM fitting the 6GB RAM Alpha, or at least if anyone can give me some advice about restoring the full visibility of the 6GB RAM on my device." in the end of my first message of his thread. I hope that posting the same issue elsewhere will get more visibility.
[Maze Alpha Questions & Answers] mistamikel:
Don't feel bad, I did the same thing, lol .

I've emailed Maze twice with no response. Hopefully they are going to upload both firmware versions soon.
[Maze Alpha Questions & Answers] Gargarospo:
I'm glad to know that I'm not alone. :D

There's a fitting Italian way of saying: "mal comune, mezzo gaudio", that is the same of the English "a trouble shared is a trouble halved". Pity that the Alpha still acts crazy! :laugh:

This means that I must feel happier, since they actually replied to me a few times. ;)

Hey people! Hope you all are doing good,

It's very kind of you, but gladly the stock ROM for the Alpha 6GB is finally available: [ROM][7.0] Maze_Alpha_B_V04_20171018 [STOCK] - Maze Alpha 6GB RAM
[Maze Alpha Questions & Answers] digi.drago:
That's news to my ears thank you for mentioning that I'm quite relieved I was wondering if they'll upload it or not. I hope that I'll receive my package soon PostNL says it is expected on Monday from custom clearance and then they will dispatch it for delivery.
[Maze Alpha Questions & Answers] Gargarospo:
Actually it looks to me like it's still a sort of an undocumented URL, since it isn't published anywhere on the Maze Mobile website (they also removed the link to the ROM for the 4GB model), and I don't really know how [MENTION=5188174]kimi1465[/MENTION] who sent it to me got that URL.

But it's clear that it is the original Stock ROM for the Alpha 6GB and it worked like a charm on my device, that's all I need know. :)

Thanks so much for all your work!
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] bombaglad:
hi,

you said this is really unstable and could brick the device easily. however, you seem to be testing and experimenting with your device a lot, so i'd like to ask if you have any particual unbrick method that you use when something goes wrong.. like, a via fastboot flashable image or something simmilar...?

thanks for your work!
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Amanpreetsingh:
Thanks for you work. If you have any unbrick methods pls tell.appreciated your work ?
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mightysween:
I am not going to provide step by step "unbrick" methods, because until the partitioning is properly set up, TWRP has potential access to things that can not be fixed.

Again, this is still highly experimental.

All that said, my entire process to protect any device remains the same: Have a backup for every partition you will be testing, make as few changes as possible at a time, test boot images before flashing (fastboot boot), and test restore methods frequently (flashing back to stock or backups), and don't do anything unless you are highly certain of the outcome.

By those standards, there is nothing to gain by installing TWRP right now, as its basic function (install/backup/restore) is not set up yet.
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mightysween:
Found the BoardConfig flag to enable FBE (TW_INCLUDE_CRYPTO_FBE := true) but do not have the lib it is dependent on (libe4crypt) and I don't see it anywhere yet...

For reference (not sure this is most current, but it demonstrates the process)

https://github.com/nijel8/TWRP/commit/bd7492de28963b7e74e8e5d3f17ec9a5a287d9c3

I have confirmed that FBE support is present in the source, dependent on this missing module... so need to figure out where/how to enable it.

It is possible that this entire process is specific to only certain devices (i.e. Pixel, Nexus). If this is the case, we may be stuck at this point for awhile.

Obvious workaround is to not be encrypted to begin with -- but that isn't a "solution".
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mightysween:
This appears to be the case, unfortunately. Seems that the TWRP FBE support was built specifically for the Google implementation of FBE which was merged into kernel sources for Nexus and Pixel. Not even using the qseecomd I assumed it was... will remove on next build.

Info on FBE:

Will be testing options to disable forced encryption, and if necessary dm-verity...

Anyone who wants to dig through kernel for related flags and props, it would be greatly appreciated!
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mightysween:
Hey, where did the big "format data" button go in TWRP? Is that optional on compile... can't find a flag for it...
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mightysween:
Making good progress this morning.

Seem to have a build with properly decrypted /system, and working SD Card. I also have patched the boot.img to disable forced encryption on the first boot. But now, I can not find a safe way to fully format (not "wipe") the /data partition. As mentioned in the previous post, the "FORMAT DATA" button is missing. The fastboot command "fastboot format userdata" returns an error that it does not support RAW format.

Need to figure out why this is happening... and once I do, I believe I can reformat /data without encryption and then will have an almost fully working TWRP build. Obviously, the ideal solution would be to have TWRP work out of the gate with an encrypted /data, but until then this is going to be our best option.

Will post an updated test build in the OP soon.... needs further testing before I would recommend non-expert users to try it.

Getting very close now! :)

UPDATE: ADDED NEW BUILD TO OP

---

Also, just occurred to me that the ramdisk will need to be patched every time, so now that I have SD card support will be testing some of the existing flashable ZIPs out there that are designed specificially to prevent first-boot encryption and/or disable dm-verity.

---
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mightysween:
This is really the only hold up... I changed the partition from 'Advanced Wipe", but as expected, it was still encrypted on boot as it doesn't actually format the footer where encryption is stored. I can't figure out where that darn "FORMAT DATA" button ran off to, and that is exactly what we need here.
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] johnjingle:
I don't know how to help except to say that using TWRP 3.1.0-MOD_1 with my XT1254 (DROID Turbo), when you go to wipe it has two buttons --- one on the left for Advanced Wipe and Format Data on the right.
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mightysween:
I have 3.1.1-0 (same version I am building here) on several other devices, and the button is there. It has to be triggered by something during compile, but I can't figure it out. Driving me nuts :)

Looking through TWRP source, and can find actions for every other button (wipe, backup, restore, install, etc) but not for format. Hmm.

I posted over on an old but semi-active TWRP flags thread, maybe someone will have some insight.
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mightysween:
Wondering if I make a stock boot image without the encryption tag in fstab, and then wipe data and reboot... then flash my image. That may make it so the data partition is never encrypted in the first place and allow TWRP to work.

But that is an ugly, non-user friendly fix. Why can't we just format /data?

---

Final update for today... this seems to be a compile issue, which is a good thing. I tried to manually decrypt /data from the TWRP command line, and got this:

So, I must be missing something in boardconfig still... and maybe need to set up a small proprietary vendor folder with the necessary libs
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] DumacDwarfking:
Thanks for doing all of this! I wish I had the time and knowledge to help.
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mightysween:
Had a few PM's checking on TWRP status, so an update.

The good news is that the X4 is using Qualcomm based decryption for /data... the bad news is that most if it seems to be closed source. This will take some time for me to figure out, but I have already made some progress by sifting through logs.

Right now, I am trying to find a device with similar decrypt scheme to have some more guidance on the process.
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] vivek638:
dont know all about these things but maybe xiaomi mi a1 twrp can help as it is also using same a/b partition. and twrp is already there for it
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mightysween:
Thanks, the Mi A1 is one of the devices I have been comparing to, and has been quite helpful.

[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Buob:
I'm not much of a programmer, but I can look through the files. Is there anything in particular we're searching for?
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mightysween:
You only need root to move apps.
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Samtapai:
So I just need to root with SuperSU and then unroot?
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mightysween:
The root thread has root instructions. But I caution anyone who is "noob" to be modifying their system like this. It is pretty easy to mess up and soft brick your device.

Moving forward, this discussion probably belongs somewhere other than the TWRP development thread.
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Samtapai:
Yes thank you very much ( I see that I am getting annoying) but my direct simple question is does this twrp support mount partition please tell me if you can answer that I just want to make sure I buy my perfect device
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] igna.98:
You should also consider that X4 already has official Oreo and will be updated to official Android P. G5s plus doesn't have official Oreo, it will get it someday but that will be its last official update (Motorola confirmed that G series only receive one major update)
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mightysween:
I am still unsure of what you mean, but yes TWRP mounts partitions as one of its primary functions.
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Samtapai:
Thank you that was all I needed to know since you can move apps to root through twrp alone :) through mount partition

Is there a bank flash or anything I can use to get fastboot working. Power went out in the middle of flashing and I am stuck. I have two of these phones, but one won't power on.
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mightysween:
Not sure... haven't seen anything yet. I miss the old RSDlite days :)
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] johnjingle:
Me too, pain in the ass to get the one phone working again.

EDIT: One has x4 has OREO. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this situation? It's never happened to me before and more than annoying. I was in fastboot flashing when power went off. Now cannot even boot.

I know of the Qualcomm drivers/software and can get my device to show up in COM 3 of my computer, but don't know how to flash a temporary boot via PC. I have linux, PC, Mac available.
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mightysween:
TWRP builds and runs fine with Oreo, but SuperSU is unable to prevent forced encryption. So, holding off on updating the OP with new builds.

SuperSU *does* provide working root on Oreo, though.
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] rehanraza:
Superb. Waiting for root on Oreo
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] kraatus90:
Does this zip work for removing forced encryption? it's from this thread.
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mightysween:
Looks like it just modifies the fstab.qcom the same way SuperSU has been doing, or I have been doing manually... but on that device (Z2) it references /system/system/vendor/etc as the location. Perhaps it has moved to a different location in 8.0... making an updated 7.1.1 /data nandroid and then will look into it. Thanks
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] kraatus90:
yes the location is changed. seems like moto has moved alot of their stuff to vendor folder. maybe preparing for treble ? :o
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mightysween:
I wish. But maybe just trying to keep standardized file locations for A/B devices??? Who knows. It is getting SO hard to keep up with changes with these new devices that I am ready to go back to my Nexus 6p (which has had custom Oreo roms for about a year).

Anyhow, I tried flashing that ZIP on 8.0 after formatting data just to see what would happen. It boots up fine, and INDEED provided an unencrypted /data partition. Only problem is that somehow wifi is borked! :p Unreal how every solution presents another problem on this device!

Just in case anyone out there is trying to explode your device by testing random stuff, here is a freshly compiled build of TWRP 3.2.1 that is built with the 8.0 kernel. ADVANCED USERS ONLY!

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1WcVS_3rloF7jxPulj_jKxfsp3zy5pB5N
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] kraatus90:
hmm, that's strange. did you try formatting it again ? it happened to me once on 7.1 too when i was messing with kernel and when i flashed back stock boot, wifi broke even though i never touched wifi module. formatting it again fixed the issue. :p

unfortunately i can't test these builds since it requires erasing data, and i can't do it atm. only have 1 phone atm. and it's kinda messy to setup it again and again. will try as soon as i have my n5x back.
[Moto X4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mightysween:
Yes, I tried formatting... reflashing now just to make sure I didn't miss something. And will try booting all the way to the system from stock, then flashing TWRP. I flashed it before initial boot last time, and I seem to recall that causing trouble.

I hear you about the constant setups But honestly, since unencrypted nougat is working reliably it only takes me about 5 minutes to flash back to stock 7.1.1, install TWRP, unencrypt and restore my nandroid. It has been a breath of fresh air after two months of setting my X4 from scratch several times EVERY DAY :)

UPDATE: Booted from pure stock 8.0 through the initial setup to confirm wifi... then flashed TWRP, and the above remove encryption script and it bootloops. Flashing SuperSU gets it to boot, but the wifi is borked. That's where we stand. We have unencrypted /data and working TWRP, but no wifi. Didn't see that one coming! :)
