[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] Phazmos:
I've been following the few thread there are on this phone since I got it (about a month now), and others have had the same (no apn settings or can't change them) issue, but I just figured it was noob issues as I've always modified the apn and never had a problem, on stock or any of the roms available now, and I've tried them all. I'm an old tech guy (in age and computer experience - took my first computer class in 77) and at this point it's in my blood and I'm to old to change my ways! Still curious though - what do ya mean by the by sim wasn't compatible? Granted I'm on straight talk, but been using the same SIM - starting with the n5, then 6p, now g5s plus - I just cut it down to size when it went to the micro format. I to hope to see more work for this thing. Almost makes me want to get back into building again (been like 6+ years since I built a rom) but I just don't want to spend the time, which I don't really have anyway. I thought about the g5+, but I can't go back to a smaller screen. Yeah it wasn't much smaller, and has same cpu, and probably a better camera, but this pig will do. And with finger print actions and expanded desktop, screen is the same size as my 6p (which I was extremely happy with till the big cores shirt the bed - still running though). Wish the camera was as good, but if I really want to take a good picture, I have my nikon d5100 (hacked of course)!

Again, good luck, I'm sure you'll get it fingered out eventually!

Lmfao - I know exactly how ya feel! I "retired" about 5 years ago, but people ask what did for a living and I say computers - then the questions start coming. I don't mind really, but I'm more thrilled by hitting a good golf shot than talking computers again. Now when they ask what I do I say , play golf! And leave it at that. Still, I just can't help myself when it comes to noobs - I still help folks out when I can, although my patience is much shorter than it used to be. It still amazes me how people do things without knowing their arse from a hole in the wall (xda has become pretty much a source of amusement for me nowadays). I did the same with roms, never went public with any - mostly cuz I didn't have the patience for stupid questions about things I've explained clearly. Some just don't appreciate the humor in giving a stupid answer to a stupid question! Oh well! Really most roms out there have more bloat than a stock rom - way too many "features" I'll never use - all I need is date in status bar (why this isn't a stock feature is beyond me), status bar brightness (auto brightness is always either to bright or to dim) and keyboard cursor control - anything more is useless and if I don't use it, I don't want it. I like things lean and mean. Really the main reason I root is to load a custom hosts file, I've been ad free for too long to start seeing them now. I thought about the n6 when it came out, but I only had the n5 for a year and wasn't ready to upgrade and 6 in did sound big (shamu was a perfect name for it). Of course I did jump on the 6p when it came out, and loved it, now I can't do anything smaller than 5.5 (that may be more a comment on eyes that are almost 60 yrs old though). At this stage, bigger is definitely better! And look at that, I ramble again (nothing on the golf channel so I run on). Anyway, pleasure chatting - and best of luck with the issue - sounds like it'll be short lived. And may be with the trouble - it is a decent device, plenty of power for most uses (only slowness I see is working big spreads in open office) and with my usage 10+ hrs of screen on time is easy to hit and have something like 20% battery left. A good deal for the $$ spent. Enjoy!
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] internetpilot:
Okay, after looking into it more, here's what I think is happening/going to happen. I found a dial code that got me to a really good phone information screen (*#*#4636#*#*). I also found a site that stated country by country the compatibility of the US version of this phone when used internationally. It can pretty much get 4G in just about every country, so the Sprint international roaming feature should at least get me 2G, which is all they advertise anyway. Through the above dial code, I can choose from a lot longer list of Preferred Network Types, including GSM only, GSM/WCDMA, TD-SCDMA, etc. When I select these, it tries unsuccessfully to connect to that network type, and when it can't it just reverts back to LTE/CDMA (the Sprint default). I think that the APN option won't show up on the menu until I successfully connect to a network other than Sprint's. I'll find out next Summer as we're planning on going to Europe. At least I now know for sure that this phone can operated internationally just fine, so I can always go the PAYG SIM route. I looked into it on previous trips with my Nexus 6, and there are travel websites that tell you exactly the best SIM service to get for each country.

Otherwise, like I said, it seems to be working fine on Sprint. On my Nexus 6 I would have problems with it switching APNs on me from the Sprint LTE APN to the one of the 3G CDMA APNs so I'd lose 4G LTE service until I switched it back. I haven't had that problem with my G5S+ so far, so I haven't "needed" the APN option in the menus yet. Hopefully I won't. I'm about to go from Virginia to Florida for the Christmas holidays, so it will be interesting to see how things work in a different location. Sprint service at my Florida house isn't exactly stellar (none of the providers are), so it should be a good test of this phone and the lack of access to APN settings.
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] internetpilot:
Updating this thread for any other poor sap with a G5S+ on Sprint (haha). Actually, it's all working out fine.

The IPv6 issues really are app related issues. I've definitely researched any of my own problem apps, but even looked into some other reported problem apps that I don't use (Pokemon Go, WeChat, etc.) and every single one of the apps or their respective servers are simply not IPv6 compliant. There are some things that Moto and Sprint could have done to make these IPv6 app issues never rear their ugly head, but that's not really Sprint's or Moto's problem to solve. All these developers need to do is make their app IPv6 compliant like the vast majority of all other apps are (actually, all iPhone App Store apps were mandated to be IPv6 compliant by June 2016).

As for the APN settings issues (lack thereof), I figured out how to get access to the APN settings by way of (believe it or not) my youngest son's iPhone 7. It's apparently common knowledge for more techie iPhone users (believe it or not, there are some techie iPhone users) to use the *#*#Data#*#* dial code to get a much more extensive mobile data settings menu, which does include APN settings. This is a very good thing since the day after I came down to my Florida house for Christmas vacation, my G5S+ kept getting stuck on 3G, and wouldn't ever get a LTE signal even though there is one here (relatively weak, but it's still here). So I used that dial code to get access to the APN settings, and immediately noticed it was using some CDMA/ehrpd APN instead of the usual n.ispn LTE APN. So, I changed it back to n.ispn and the phone immediately latched on to a LTE signal and tends to keep it fairly well throughout my Florida house, actually better than my previous few phones did.

So, I'd have to say all's well that ends well on this whole thing. Hope this helps anyone else using this phone on Sprint (although it looks like I may be the only one on XDA).

Ok yes I'm on Sprint. So I can get to those apn settings but I can't add an apn.. exactly how do you do that.. Yes I can edit the only existing one just can't add any.

edit APN settings for IPV4

also posted here: https://xdaforums.com/moto-g5s-plus...ing-ipv4-address-sprint-t3747256#post76243857

First please forgive this post if it is not helpful, I didn't see a solution and came up with something that worked for me, so hope it will help others.

Problem: On my Moto XT1806 GS5+ I was getting no IPV4 connectivity only IPV6 (tested with app: Ping & Net by Ulf Dittmer from the play store).

The main issue this caused was that I couldn't view my security cameras via Sprint's network., It would only show cameras on my home WIFI.

To verify I used Ping & Net to try to ping google.com. The app gives you the option to use IPV4 or IPV6, as you can guess IPV6 succeeded and IPV4 gave no results at all.

With some guesswork I did the following to fix this:

Solution:

open dialer and typed *#*#DATA#*#* or *#*#3282#*#* selected apn settings then internet.

at the top right tap the 3 dots and select edit this prompted me to enter a passcode which after several guesses ended up being 6 zeros "000000". (maybe this is in the instructions somewhere? Don't know didn't look, kinda figured it would be posted already if it was).

then I was able to change the APN NI from x.ispsn to n.ispsn.

Waited a few seconds, turned on airplane mode and then turned it back off and then I was on 3G with IPV4. It would be even better if it was LTE with IPV4, I will continue to experiment, or maybe someone can step in and save me the trouble. maybe cinet.spcs?

Anyway it works for now as a workaround and I can look at my security cameras away from home again, hooray.
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] gravityecho:
Just found easier/better way to get/test IPV4: dial *#*#4636#*#* select phone info, from this screen you can run ping test to see if IPV6 and/or IPV4 is working. In my case, changing network type from "LTE/CDMA auto (PRL)" to "CDMA only" gave me a pass ping on IPV4.

This seems like a much easier/faster/better method than previous post and is now my preferred workaround method.
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] internetpilot:
Unfortunately, the 4636 dial code doesn't work on most (all?) of the current 3rd-party ROMs, and all of the current 3rd-party ROMs (to date) do not allow for Sprint users to change any of the carrier settings. It defaults to Global, and if you try to switch it to LTE (which is what is recommended), you'll lose your mobile signal and won't get it back until you reset the network settings, which defaults you back to Global.

It's very frustrating. Doesn't seem like any of these 3rd-party ROMs support Sprint at all.
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] gravityecho:
Yeah after talking to support at my ISP (Cox who doesn't support IPv6 yet at least in my area), Sprint (who would love to sell me another phone), Motorola (who suggested I reset app preferences and restart) and Best buy (who didn't have a clue but again would love to sell me another phone), yesterday I had enough and returned it. It's staggering how many people in tech support fields have no idea what IPv4, IPv6, and APNs are. One support person at sprint thought IPv4 meant Iphone 4..:eek:. Back to my trusty Note 4 with it's emmc problem and cinet.spcs.
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] critofur:
I just recently bought a G5S Plus to replace my G5 Plus, because the screen on my G5 is cracked and I was going to fix the screen, but then I've found that the Micro USB port on the bottom is also growing "lose" (I HATE!!!! Micro USB because they always wear out on my phones).

Anyway, I went to "activate" my new G5S+ on the Sprint web page and it just said sorry they can't help w/that, I have to "Speak to someone for assistance" (but they didn't show me what phone number to call).

Glad to see the phone will actually work on Sprint! (Since I already bought it, it would be a big deal for me if it did not!).

I have not rooted mine yet, but plan to soon. I am just not sure what ROM to use yet because it seems like these days there is no such thing as a custom ROM without problems. I sure miss the days of my Samsung Galaxy S3 when most ROMs I tried seemed to be basically flawless and better than Stock, or, at least as good, in every way.

Damn, wow, that really sucks. I have this phone, it's too late to return it, and I've got about 6 months left of my "unlimited everything" from sprint for approximately $3 per month.
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] internetpilot:
Yep, welcome to my world! I think we're the only two people on the Moto G5S Plus on Sprint here! I was a little surprised when the SIM from my Motorola Nexus 6 didn't work in the Moto G5S Plus, but that's probably the reason you have to talk to someone or go to a Sprint store to activate it because this phone does require a rather specific SIM that's different from the previous Moto G and E models. At least Sprint finally solved the IPv6 issues that were going on when I first got this phone. That was pretty bad. It got better when my home internet providers (Comcast and Verizon at two different houses) finally upgraded to IPv6, but Sprint really shouldn't have pulled the trigger on implementing IPv6 so early. To this day only like 25% of the entire internet is on IPv6 and in the world only like 50 countries have more than 5% of IPv6 implemented.

I've literally tried every ROM posted here and even the unofficial versions of very popular ROMs (that have always worked for me on my Android phones with Sprint) like Dirty Unicorns, Resurrection Remix, LineageOS, etc., all do the same thing. They all seem to be using the same proprietary blobs or base or whatever (I'm not a developer), and they just simply don't work (or are at least VERY sketchy) on Sprint. I've been rooting/ROMing Android since my first phone almost a decade ago (HTC EVO 4G), and never had these problems on Sprint before this phone. My immediate previous phone was also a Motorola (Google Nexus 6), and I never had any problem with Sprint and custom ROMs on that phone.

I actually just recently flashed everything back to unrooted stock Nougat, took the Oreo update and all the security updates, and didn't even bother to re-root it. Sprint put a free 50GB/month wifi hotpot on every phone on my account, and the Camera2 API is activated in the stock Oreo ROM, so other than flashing a custom ROM, those were my two main reasons for rooting and they're no longer needed. So, I'm currently happily running stock unrooted Oreo with Nova Launcher.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] mikeynavy1:
I think I'm doing something wrong, the Pixel 2 only works with certain cables, or something else (port defect, OS defect, special drivers needed, etc.). I wanted to transfer some files from my PC (Windows 10) to my phone. I have a USB 2.0 to type-C cable that I plugged in. The phone came up in Windows but the contents of the window were blank. I could not access any contents or view anything on the phone. In Settings under USB I saw it said "charging" so I selected "transfer files" and it disconnected from Windows and reconnected only to go right back to charging. I have locked/unlocked, restarted the phone, tried different USB ports, and nothing works. The only function that works is "charging." When I use the supplied type-C to type-C that came with the phone I can get it to work only if I plug into the computer, then the phone, lock the phone, and then unlock it using my PIN (not fingerprint). I ordered a USB 3.0 to type-C cable to see if that works. Is there something I'm missing on why the phone won't connect with a USB-A to USB type-C cable...except to charge? Drivers or something else?

Also...I've reset the phone once (that didn't work either)...and even tried enabling USB debugging.

Please help. Thanks in advance.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] mikeynavy1:
Well...I think I figured it out with more troubleshooting. Apparently, you can't connect this phone to a computer via a USB hub. I was able to get it to work by plugging directly into my computer. I tried it on two different powered USB 3.0 hubs and it didn't work. Not sure why or if there is a way around it for convenience.

Hi guys,

Win10 topic almost dead but maybe someone here knows the trick and can share? Is there a way to enable W10M feature "double tap to wake up" on the regular W10 running on tablet with the touch screen?

AFAIR, it was just a registry change for W10M (but maybe I'm wrong and some additional dlls must be installed).

So, if you know how please share.
[Windows 10 Mobile] nate0:
I have never tried honestly. There is an app called ModernGlance though that might help piece it together if you know what you're looking for. It has a dbl tap option to wake the device while the app is active. It's basically a mimic of the Lumia Glance screen for tablets. Maybe check it out?
[Windows 10 Mobile] dxdy:
is not... remember x50 Lumia series? also is depend to screen and firmware... changing (only) registry not enable this feature

p.s.

you have one tap to wake on tablets.... just press power button... LOL
[Windows 10 Mobile] nate0:
I have a Dell Venue 11 Pro, and if it is not in sleep mode only the screen is off, I can tap once on the screen and the screen comes on. So this particular tablet has some fw and digitizer support some where...If the whole tablet is in sleep mode though obviously it won't wake since ACPI power settings are not like an ARM device (Always on/Always Connected).
[Windows 10 Mobile] sensboston:
Sometimes it's not an easy, especially if you are wearing a hard working gloves (it's not about me but about workers who's using my software and do a hard work) ;)
[Windows 10 Mobile] gus33000:
The double tap to wake up features on lumia is handled by a small system service (whose name I forgot), it's made by nokia and it might even work in correlation with the display panel driver, so I doubt you'll get this to work on anything but arm and lumia devices. But people could try building a service/driver to achieve this on PCs (but I have a feeling that will have to be heavily hardware specific). I also doubt all tablets on the market support touch events while being locked.

[MENTION=7651894]gus33000[/MENTION], thanks for the info; yes, it looks like you're right and this is a Lumia specific feature. By the way, do you know how to change system power policy from UWP app? For example, I'd like to turn screen off after 3 minutes of inactivity but completely disable standby mode. I understand it can be done via standard control panel applet or registry provisioning but will be good to have provide that feature directly from UWP app.

Ok.. so a few days ago I installed this:

Rom: Duttys WM6.1 5.2.19716

Radio: Polar 1.58.25.14

Everything works great... except for the stupid comm manager. I remapped all of my buttons... so now the only thing the comm manager is assigned to is the "press and hold SEND button".

However....

The COMM manager will randomly launch itself. It seems like it happens sometimes when i'll click text messages, or open slide out the keyboard... etc. etc..

For what it's worth.. i installed the same rom and radio on my girlfriends tilt, and her phone does the same thing. Has anyone else experienced this?

:)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] -haze-:
Yea, I was getting the same thing.

You should flash the latest version of that rom, it's the 1 5.2.19716_UC. I still get the comm manager popping up, but it's not nearly as much as what you're seeing now. And if you can believe it, the latest one is even FASTER!!!

And it is UC compliant.
