[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] joesee:
There are a ton of entries on XDA about sim unlocking the T-Mobile and Sprint versions of the Z2 force, but none of them confirm once unlocked if they've used it on Verizon.

T-Mobile's page confirms their version utilizes bands 2,4 and 13 - all of which are Verizon's LTE bands.

Can anyone confirm?

I'm looking to buy this to replace a work phone on Verizon. My personal account is with T-Mobile, so would be very nice if I could just flip sims whenever I'd like. Appreciate in advance the responses!
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] ThePandaPhone:
(unlock T-Mobile bootloader, sim unlock, root and put a custom rom with safety net passes)

then type this on google and try.

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] joesee:
I’m too chicken to mess with anything not official from xda on my daily driver. I’m sucking it up and waiting out the period for the device unlock app to ‘officially’ sim unlock and try. When that day comes, I’ll post here.

I think it’s ignorant having to wait for a sim unlock for a phone you bought outright.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] engy79:
Eagerly awaiting news on this - why is there a waiting period on the sim unlock? How longs is that period? I'm about to head out to Tmobile store and buy me one too.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Greefus:
Verizon's LTE band 13 is exclusive to the Verizon model unfortunately. I wish it wasn't so you could use a bootloader unlocked Sprint or T-Mobile edition on Verizon. I did that with the Google Pixel - used the universal one on Verizon. I just got used to having an unrooted phone with the z2 Force. I switched to blokada after many years of always using ad away. I think most all ad blockers on unrooted phones are VPN based so it lags WiFi and mobile data a little but that's what you get to work with if you want the best moto phone running on Verizon.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] zstricky:
Could you provide your source of information on that? T-Mobile's listing of the Z2 Force lists band 13 LTE capability, and multiple sources say that the Sprint variant has band 13 too. I am just about to pull the trigger on a Z2 Force variant that is bootloader unlockable, but whichever carrier version I get has to work with Straight Talk Verizon.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Greefus:
I'm seeing the sprint one listed as having band 13 now everywhere actually. My bad. I don't recall seeing that back when i got it and was shopping around. Let me know if the Sprint one works for you on vz because i miss having a a rooted phone.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Uzephi:
The only different thing on the US phone's is the oem partition. Everything else hardware and software are very similar to the point I want to say identical. (Obviously, some slight changes in /system and stuff but that's with the territory of using OEM ROMs). I have flashed a T-Mobile flashall and it worked. I flashed back to Sprint shortly after. I did it for science.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] feardasbeard:
So in short, will am unlocked T-mobile Moto Z2 work on the Verizon network with a sim swap? Or does it require a root or the bootloader thing that was mentioned, I haven't done either one as I am content with factory.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Droid4lifee:
So, what's the verdict? Will unlocked T-Mobile Z2 force work with Verizon?
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Uzephi:
Most likely will not work. T-Mobile variant is GSM and most likely doesn't have the CDMA bands on it or programmed into it. Only thing you can try is flash Verizon firmware and see if it works. 99% chance T-mobile firmware will not work, Verizon firmware has about a 40% chance of working. If you don't have the device, I'd suggest not investing as no one has tried it.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] noXcape:
I tried the Verizon flash all on my TMobile z2. Didn't work.lost baseband.

The flash all looked as if everything flashed properly...but when it finished and rebooted it still had tmo splash screen. So I don't know if it really did it.

If it's worth any thing my Verizon Sim in my tmo z2 gets great data...just no calls/messages
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] zstricky:
I have an unlocked Sprint variant that I flashed to Verizon and use with Straight talk Verizon. The only issue is that so far whenever an update comes in I have to back up all the things I want to save and flash the updated flashall, because the automatic updater just keeps on failing. I don't know if this matters, but I'm bootloader unlocked (had to for sim unlock) but without TWRP or root. It's possible that if I would try relocking the bootloader that the automatic update process would work. I briefly had a Mint sim in there (T-mobile) and everything seemed to work. I didn't really try things out with the Sprint rom, but as I remember everything worked, I just didn't like the icon style plus always having a notification saying something about a non Sprint sim card
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Uzephi:
Was it officially unlocked or was a modified file flashed to your phone? If you had a third party service unlock, then the hash check for that partition is incorrect and that's why updates fail.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] zstricky:
I had a third party unlock it. Actually, it was the guy that people on this forum have talked about.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] kenbrownstone:
Will this work on Verizon? My tmo z2 was unlocked by TMobile not a third party

Hi- I am wondering about being able to buy a new-in-the-box z2 Force that was originally sold for Sprint, and being able to flash the T-mobile firmware to it for use with them. Is this possible? I have done this for Galaxy S8/S9 phones, but there is a deal right now where I can get this phone with 2 of the mods for dirt cheap, but it won't really matter if I can't do the conversion. Any advice?

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alwayss:
so yesterday i left my phone on the charger over the night and when i woke up i took the phone and saw some white screen blinking a few times and then it died. black screen but the flashlight started blinking like crazy , even if i turn off the phone it still blinks somehow and the device was rly like rly hot, couldnt hold it in the hands how hot it was. the thing is , water got throu the windows somehow and proly got a few drops or more xd on charger and phone itself. so couse it would stop blinking i just left it on the bad like that , couse i was kinda late for work. when i got back home , the phone was off , proly the battery died so i put it on the charger and then it started blinking again untill i disconnect the charger. but it wont turn on now for some reason , maybe the battery is so dead that it doesnt have the power to turn on even on charger with all that blinking flashlight, i cant leave it on charger couse it gets hot again . So do u guys think this can be fixed ? couse i would reather give 400e to get it fixed then buy a new one, i have somethings on device that i rly need back. sry for bad english and thanks :)
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Baby.Boy:
You didn't say why you think water is the cause and how water might have got near the phone; although you've mentioned the window, I am assuming it was raining.

So if water really got into the phone, then it's no surprise why your device gets hot, there are probably some short circuits.

And as for the repair part, the only thing you should NOT do is to try to turn on the phone, in other words, DO NOT ATTEMPT to turn on the phone or charge the device, leave it turned off and uplugged, the more you try, the more short circuit and more issues.

To be honest, you shouldn't have tried even the first day, but we all make mistake, so it's okay.

And about what you can do...

Well, there are some methods that might work, but I would say they wouldn't work most of the times.

You can leave the phone in a rice bag for a long period of time, if you're going to do that, leave it for a few DAYS, don't turn on the phone for at least a week, I am saying this because some people think a day is more than enough, but it's not and it needs to be there for like a week, but as I said it probably not going to work.

Next thing you can do is to buy some kits(it's like a plastic bag) that are available online specifically to dry out a phone, I'm not sure how good they are, but...it might worth a try depending on your preference.

One suggestion though, if you are going to try the rice method or the drying kit/bag, I would say take out the sim card tray, it makes it easier and faster to dry out, however you should be very careful as rice can get inside the phone very easily without the sim tray.

And lastly, I would strongly suggest visiting a professional repair shop, it's the best option and you have a higher chance of getting your device back.

And I would like to mention all of what I have said is because we are assuming water is the cause, so if it's something else, we need to investigate further.

I hope you get your device back and also I hope someone suggests a better solution than mine.

Cheers.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alwayss:
thanks for ur help bro , i tried the rice but for a day, just like u said..

So i kinda couldnt w8 for a replay so i disassembled it xD and im prty sure its water , found some white stains on the motherboard and lcd connectors and im kinda hoping that it will work just fine after i clean those , but thing that scares me the most is some burn marks on some burn marks on some aliminium on the edge, dont rly know what it is , but theres something inside and the things inside look fine , i dont have 99 alch now , so tummorow ill try to clean the phone and leave it for a few hours and then try to turn it on , if its the same ill get it to repair shop in a weak or so couse i dont have time now.. dont worry ill check the answers next time be4 i do smth stupid like this xd

thanks again :)
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Baby.Boy:
I hope it works fine after cleaning it, but I didn't say a day, I've actually said do it for a week at least and a day IS NOT ENOUGH.

Water damage is a little tricky and hard to guess what might come next, so the result of cleaning it or being repaired at professional repair shop isn't something that somebody can guess, even not experts, so I just hope it goes well.

Build your own 2.3.1 and you'll have a nice stable rom. I have tried others, but I always go back to DCD, but I am using some of No2Chem's tools, but I love the DCD base.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] sovrce:
DCD's 2.1.0 is absolutely perfect for all practical purposes. Sure you could go with 2.5.6 then 2.9.8 etc etc, but I've found that 2.1.0 will do everything you can in terms of data (GPS & Rev A) and in terms of stability, from what I understand, some of the newer ROMs aren't entirely compatible/stable. Do whatever you want, but before you flash back to stock and wait for an official release, give 2.1.0 a shot.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] 5150jpd:
I've been smashing my head over this to no avail. Prior to side loading 8.1, when my phone rang the caller and swipe up/down would appear on the lock screen, now it rings, but nothing on the lock screen till I wake it with the fingerprint sensor. Did I miss something? Was this changed? I've been through the settings and still can't see anywhere that I missed. This a security feature so no one can see who's calling till you hit the sensor? Any feed back would be appreciated.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] 5150jpd:
I agree surprised more are not annoyed...lol
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] EMcTx:
I tested incoming phone calls with and without bluetooth, and came to the same result. Since it's very annoying for the screen to not turn on, I ended up making a macro with Macrodroid to turn the screen on when a call comes in. This workaround will be sufficient for me until Google fixes the bug.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] d j a:
I posted on this same issue last week. It's the last update to Google Phone app that broke this. I don't have the time to report it to them...so hopefully it gets fixed!

*Edit- To fix(?), uninstall the phone app and it will remove the update. Should work then. Of course you won't be able to use Duo for video calling within the dialer...but I couldn't care less about that.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Pkt_Lnt:
I just had this happen yesterday. Here is a work around with Tasker and Secure Task to wake screen on incoming call.

Import it in Profiles tab in Tasker and make sure you have Secure Task and have it configured with adb.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] v12xke:
This may be related to the Proximity Sensor bug introduced with 8.1. Do you have a screen protector on your device? Does it cover the PS?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] 5150jpd:
Nope.. No protector on phone at all.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Pkt_Lnt:
It started for me on the Google Phone update to version 15 on Dec. 14th. I never had this issue on 8.1 that I did the OTA sideload when I got my phone on Dec. 4.

My proximity sensor is fine. Even with always on display, AOD goes off in pocket and turns back on when I pull it out. On a phone call the screen blanks when I put it to my ear and wakes when I pull it away from my head.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] jonstrong:
Yep -- I just ran into the problem today as well. I've got 8.1.0 on my Pixel 2 XL, and I get this behavior (display not waking up for incoming call) when connected via Bluetooth -- to my car, headphones (Sennheiser PXC 550) or to my Jabra Speak 710 BT speakerphone.

I considered trying Drupe or Truecaller, but then I read that packet sniffing tests show them sending your contacts data off their servers...so I think I'll wait for a fix from Google. Really annoying. There are a couple of threads on this in Google's product forums / Pixel User Community:

https://productforums.google.com/fo...QEn6fH0OI;context-place=forum/phone-by-google

https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/phone-by-google/hdmLGWSMhSM;context-place=topicsearchin/phone-by-google/category$3Adevice-performance%7Csort:relevance%7Cspell:false

So far, Google doesn't appear to be weighing in with any useful commentary. The only "fix" for now seems to be "uninstalling" the phone app (which just reverts back to the OEM installed version) and then not accepting updates to the app. But I've read that this can spin up other issues.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] JimSmith94:
Have you tried the tasker profile from post #7 by Pkt_Lnt? That fixed it for me.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] jonstrong:
Thanks. If this issue goes on much longer, I'll probably try that. Oddly enough, despite having played with custom Android ROMs and modding over the years, I never used Tasker -- concerned that having the add'l service(s) running in the background around the clock would be more of a battery drain.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] EMcTx:
I updated my phone app yesterday, and the screen lights up again upon receiving a phone call. I disabled the macro that I made in Macrodroid just to make sure.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] JimSmith94:
Thanks for the info. My phone app updated too, so I'll disable the Tasker profile and see if it lights up without it for me too.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] AugustOtter:
I'm late to the party, but I fixed this on a Pixel 2 XL in our household. In the system's app settings I force stopped the phone app and cleared the app cache, then I disabled the "Flip to Shhh" feature in the phone app settings. If that fix works for you, please leave a reply so we can validate.
[SuperSU] Northin:
First of all, sorry if I'm writing to a wrong forum or thread, it's very difficult to find anything on this forum...

I really need help with my device as I've tried everything available on the Internet and haven't got the desired result.

My device is Motorola Moto G5 Plus XT1685 (Spain) bought from Amazon in December.

I want to root it.

First try failed, and the device got bricked (or whatever you call it, the system was erased).

So I installed this:

POTTER_RETAIL_7.0_NPN25.137-92_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip

The system worked normally.

I proceeded with the instructions given on the internet: unlock, flash twrp, format data, flash boot, install the wifi patch, install SuperSu.

Great, it worked, the system loaded, the device was unlocked. BUT! The camera didn't work. I've tried all the solutions offered on the Internet, I really did. I re-rooted it again and found that the camera goes wrong with the boot kernel image.

So I used the image from the aforementioned potter pack. It went well, device rooted, camera works. But there is no wifi modem. Yes, I installed the wifi patch, several times, from the recovery mode.

So, it's either camera and wifi or root... Is there any solution for moto g5 plus xt1685 to have root AND camera and wifi?

Thank you.
