[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] orboe:
Hello! So I have rooted a few devices before while looking at guides on this website. This time it did not work out very well. I am using a Moto Z2 Force from T-Mobile. When I followed this guide: https://xdaforums.com/z2-force/how-to/how-to-root-moto-z2-force-t-mobile-t3672933 , I ended up locking up my phone in bootloop with the Tmobile logo. I have tried flashing back the backup I made and using a few different roms I found on this site. Some of the guides I tried to use to fix my phone were:

https://xdaforums.com/z2-force/how-to/to-stock-roms-t3672859

https://xdaforums.com/z2-force/development/rom-stock-november-hybrid-rom-t-mobile-t3712795

https://xdaforums.com/z2-force/development/how-to-install-oreo-ota-t3726932

None of them are working.

Bootloader is unlocked. After using the flashall from these links I had to unlock it again or I was stuck on a screen telling me "Your device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and will not boot". When it is locked it just goes between that quoted black screen and reboots itself every 10 or so seconds back into that screen. Once I unlock the bootloader, It quickly shows the white T-Mobile screen. Goes to a black screen that says "Your devices software can't be checked for corruption. Please lock the bootloader". It will let me pause on the screen if I click the power button or it will continue to the T-Mobile screen. On that screen it will vibrate for a half second and then after 5 seconds or so will restart.

At this current moment I have gotten it so I can get into the recovery mode screen. At some points in my adventure today that option would have a bootloop as well. I have tried "Wipe data/factory reset". But that puts me in a even shorter bootloop that does not even vibrate on the T-Mobile screen. It is just a quick flash of white, black, then white again.

Not sure what other information I can give. I am going to leave the phone where it is until someone replies to this.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Uzephi:
Go into bootloader. Let us know the bootloader version. It should have a message in bootloader with the end looking like a date, that is what we need to know. It seems you're on Oreo by your symptoms. If so, flash the flash all in development section thread on "update to Oreo [T-Mobile]" nougat flash all's will not work if you're on the Oreo bootloader.

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] orboe:
Thank you so much. That flashall worked. I tried another one from Oreo but it did not work. Glad this one did.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] androidddaaron:
I wasn't to know if the Oreo flash all skips the need for the magisk manager apk that nougat required.

And is twrp for Oreo like any other twrp from the past can you boot it from fastboot menu or power button combo and works ok? Not exactly getting the current working status of twrp for this device hence why I haven't flashed any recovery
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Uzephi:
For Root, Magisk Manager will always be required. You need an app to manage root access to apps or things would be terribly insecure. After you update to Oreo, use the below TWRP, it works flawlessly. Credits to [MENTION=3659125]joemossjr[/MENTION] and [MENTION=2385005]invisiblek[/MENTION] for it.

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] androidddaaron:
Link to the magisk manager needed by chance ? ... Or is it the same one from the nougat root thread?

And can you possibly be the 2nd one to confirm/acknowledge we indeed can edit build prop to enable MHL Mirracast on the z2 force ? So I heard ... I'm trying to mirror my z2 to my pioneer touch screen and it's got to be done via mhl adapter.

Some say Moto and Lenovo just blocked this but it still exists with simply editing a value in build prop ?
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Uzephi:
https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445 for more information on magisk. Do not flash anything from the nougat thread. Oreo is different. download the 15.3.zip and flash it in TWRP. download Magisk Manager apk from the official thread and you'll be good to go.

Yes, a build.prop edit should make it work
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Shiro12:
Is this TWRP image bootable only or is it safe to flash/replace stock recovery?
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Uzephi:
It is flashable
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] androidddaaron:
flashing Twrp V6 moto z2 force is this 100% functional

so OreoV6 twrp is 100% functional can flash it permanently and boot from fastboot recovery at any point? any other steps or flashing ? decryption neccesary after flashing twrp or is that an optional?
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Uzephi:
Encryption works thanks to [MENTION=2385005]invisiblek[/MENTION]. Just "fastboot flash boot path/to/twrp" and you're golden.

Does Oreo works fine on Nougat BL? :confused:

I too got a bootloop after unlocking the bootloader, installing TWRP, and then Magisk from the TWRP forum. I got it back working after formatting data again luckily. I am on 3.1 right now, do I need to update to 3.2 before flashing Magisk? I'm on 7.1 now, BL: MBM-3.0-nash_tmo-e7b4c60-171017

Thanks for any help, its been many years since I had an upgrade, been stuck on the S6 for a while and glad to get back in the game :)

[Android General] scottfree1:
I have an idea for what I think is pretty rare, a new a unique android app. My problem is creating it is way beyond my skill set. Was looking for someone with the skills to write the app. Even though it is not a game the most likely path would be a multi-player dev platform like AppWarp.

What I'm hopping find is someone with the skills to do the job in exchange for equity but I don't expect you to commit to a full blown project unless you me and more importantly kickstarter thinks it's a good idea.

So to start I would want to create a mock-up android app to demo the concept. Then I would need some input on costs and timelines put together a business plan and kickstarter campaign, then it's up to the crowd to decide if the idea is good or not..

Thanks for reading pm me if you are interested..

PS: I would need an electronic non-nondisclosure (eSign PDF) before sending out details..

[General Questions and Answers] sl4p3z:
Hello, so i have a Yuntab Tablet and i wanted a costum rom with latest android (like nougat) but its impossible to find a rom for that bcz isnt a very known brand

any possible "universal rom" for that tablet? (clean version, i would fix bugs)

Allwinner A33 quad-core 1,5 GHz.

Android KitKat 4.4

7" - TFT 1024*600

8 Gb, RAM 512 Mo DDR3.
[General Questions and Answers] sl4p3z:
bump, help

EDIT: It got recovery mode.
[General Questions and Answers] sl4p3z:
any ?
[General Questions and Answers] robonxt:
It's possible, but because there are so many varieties and different versions it's not useful. Also, it is a slow tablet already so installing Nougat or any other newer Android versions may make it near unusable.

Not saying it's impossible, but not likely

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Magika10:
Dear Friends,

I have Samsung S8+ with Device Unlock App for T-Mobile USA,

Its not stolen or reported black list however when i enter the IMEI on the T-Mobile official web site its status is blocked.

Regarding this issue if i will use a service my phone can be unlocked.

One more thing i have tried to change the firmware to G955U1 and i succeeded.

every time i enter the home screen this message "enter the network unlocking code" prompts out,i already ordered unlock code and inserted then it said:network unlocked successfully however its still locked on tmobile,i dont know what to do next regarding these givens above if any one have a solution for my issue indeed i need your help.

Thank you all:) :cowboy:

Thanks and many regards
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
If the T-Mobile site says it's blocked, then it is blacklisted. Sorry, it won't work on any network. You need to call T-Mobile and ask why it's blocked.

And the only way to network unlock the T-Mobile S8/+ is with the T-Mobile unlock app. Flashing the unlocked firmware and then entering an unlock code won't work. T-Mobile has to be the one to unlock it, and it has to be initiated through the app.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] instrumentaly:
Sorry but now TMB can be unlocked through reading codes no need for unlock app, plus if the imei is blacklisted @ TMB so it is blocked for TMB only which means if he use AT&T sim after unlock it will definitely work !!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
That's absolutely false. If it's blacklisted through T-Mo, it's blacklisted for all US carriers.

And what's your source saying you can use unlock codes on T-Mo? Because no one here has been able to do that. Many people have lost money buying useless codes for T-Mobile.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] razers7t8:
Is any work being done to get full root for the Canadian and American version of the the Samsung Galaxy 8 Plus? Full root meaning we can install custom roms and root the device while keeping 100 per cent of our battery and not being capped at 80 per cent.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] badboy47:
Never say never but then again Samsung is very quick on patching any method people find. The worst part is people are helping them. To give you an example, yesterday a reddit user shared s8 official oreo leaked version link and few mins later some idiot posted the url in the Samsung official forum asking if they flash that would give them access to Oreo beta access.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] razers7t8:
This is the first Galaxy phone I've owned that I'm not able to root and customize and stuff. I may stop buying Galaxy's if they're gonna start locking down the phone. I want root, custom ROMS, Odin, TWRP etc. I've always done this stuff on Galaxy phones ever since the Galaxy S3. Why have they completely locked down this phone?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] razers7t8:
Is there any way to get multi-user support like what you find on stock Android?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] badboy47:
In my opinion, Samsung is going on Apple' footstep where they care bout security more than anything especially with Samsung pay and keeping user data safe. As a user, I think it all comes down to whats more important to you and if you want more customization and rooting then Samsung is the wrong device.

I am coming from the very first Nexus devices to OnePlus and now to Samsung. For years, I enjoyed rooting and flashing custom roms. It got to a point where I got tired of it especially with OnePlus phones. Sure they let you customize and release updates quickly but they rush things and the software is buggy as h*ll with lots of security problem. Where Samsung has grown more mature now. Gone are the days when Touchwiz was ugly. Samsung Experience has lots of features and its very much customizable. It's no where near to flashing a custom rom but its stable which matters to me more.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] myechophone:
I second this. Rooting was probably needed to get some nice benefits in earlier versions of Android. Now. The OS is mature where most of the functionality is offered by default.

Plus, capitalism at its best. US snapdragon - locked bootloaders.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] madrigal77:
I don't see the need for root anymore. Adhell blocks ads without root, and substratum is rootless. Those are the two main things I used to root for. Notes there's just no reason.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] razers7t8:
Yeah, except Samsung keeps messing with the OS and disabling stuff that's built into stock Android, like multi-user support.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] razers7t8:
What's substratum?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] partcyborg:
There has been full root since august
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] this.guy.lol:
Not to be the A-hole of the post but if you desire root roms twrp etc. Splurge on the rootable exynos model like 90% of others who want root do and did. I live in America and i quit buying US phones after the S5/s6 from sprint. I'm not rich by any means, more poor than anything but I save up and do son hustle and sell phones to feed my tech addiction. Just some honesty for you sir. :) $600-$700 will get you a like new g955F over on swappa. I'm currently selling mine so I can get a oneplus 5T or a note 8.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] razers7t8:
Full root meaning not having your battery capped at 80 per cent.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] inningsdefeat500:
Although I have not rooted yet but I came back to Android after 2 years of iPhoning and never expecting the new ver to be Jailbroken. However, things look different now and its not that I dont like Android but I safely assumed that after 6 + months of release, there would be a full fledged list of roms so much so that I might have a hard time choosing. Galaxy/Samsung to me was like the root would be released the day the phone was even named

[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] jack6128:
Hi all, I just got this phone. Before that I used a Palm Pixi, so you can guess my level of Android expertise. I fully expected that it would be possible to answer an incoming call with a voice command. I hope I am not mistaken in this belief, but after searching for a way, I am forced to waste your time with a newb question like this. How do I do it?

BTW, I am using Mint SIM for cell and 4g LTE and is the best bargain going. I have no complaints. Thought I would pass that on.

Thanks,

Jack

Things to try:

tap and hold and see if there is an exit option

go into settings/memory and see if you can find the process and kill it

uninstall whatever it was you installed to give you that

download a task manager and kill the process

where is the battery logo?

Is there anything related to bluetooth in Windows/StartUp folder? Open your file explorer to see. If yes, try removing it and see if that goes away.

[General Topics] holmanm:
All the way to the left of the 88% (BatteryStatus). Press and hold and there should be a checkmark next to "Tray Icons". Uncheck it and it should go away, if it is BatteryStatus's tray icons, which it looks like.

sweet i delete some stuff from the startup floder and its gone

tnx man
[General Questions and Answers] UserNamist:
Basically, a lot of ROMs I've downloaded come without the ability to switch SElinux to enforcing.

Which, apart from losing the ability to use Android Pay, is extremely unsafe from my understanding.

My question is why? Why does the device crash if you try to manually change it to enforcing? Why don't these devs release the ROM with SElinux on by default? Thanks
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] p8tgames:
Before we begin: NO, I WILL NOT PROVIDE A ZIP HERE.

OK, now when thats out of the way, lets Start with the most asked questions about Stock oreo for Moto G5.

1: Q: "Is the Beta out yet?"

A: Not yet, but very soon, as the Moto G5 MFN requests have Been accepted.

2: Q: "Can you provide the OTA ZIP?'

A: No, because

1:Its illeagel

2: Its made for a specific IMEI

3: It may damages your device.

3: Q: "How do we find out if Oreo Beta out? Using OTA?"

A: You cant find out if your Device's Bootloader is unlocked and if you didnt join MFN using this link:

https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Forum-...or-the-Motorola-Feedback-Network/td-p/3064626

Then, when the day comes, you get Oreo Beta if you are on Stock and have Bootloader unlocked at that momement.

4: Q: "I dont care about illeagel stuff how do i get the ZIP extracted?"

A: You cant!

Because you only recieve the update if youre Bootloader locked. Thus you cant access /cache. Unlocking the Bootloader after you downloaded the Update erases Cache and Userdata (as we all know)

5: Q: "So... Will Oreo ever come out?"

A: Of course it does! Just give motorola time!

I will edit this thread when More questions get asked.

You can disguss and ask questions here, but look at your grammar and think twice before asking something.

Thanks, P8tgames :good: :)
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] M1810:
Nice, can't wait to see news about the beta for our device ;)

Hope it comes out quick

I suppose there might be a way if someone runs a traffic detector on his/her network and grabs the OTA link...

(By the way, check some typos in the first post, it says things like "illeagel").

Well, it shouldn't take longer than march. If it does, it will be a tremendous dissapointment. My guess is february, maybe they will skip november and go straight to december-january

Maybe. Well have to see using wireshark or something like that.

[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] mikeynavy1:
I'm hoping some with battery monitoring app can shed some light on this. I get decent battery life, comparatively to what I'm reading on forums. In CPU-Z my battery is rated as "GOOD" which I'm assuming/hoping is the highest rating as my phone is only 1.5 months old. Out of curiosity I decided to try the AccuBattery app. The first test charge of 7% (my phone was at 93%), above the AccuBattery minimum of 5%, said that my estimated battery capacity was only 2450 mAh. It was correctly reporting the design capacity of 2700 mAh. I'm going to let the battery discharge more this time and try again... 9% wear seems impossible. Thoughts...including is there a recommended app that gives reliable battery wear/capacity data? 2-year old Dell laptop still only reports 2% wear.

It may be the software, including needing several charges to provide accurate data. (maybe). I just did a charge from 75% to 100% on a HTC One M8 with 2600 mAh battery and the results were almost the same (2400 mAh estimated true capacity).
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] buddahj:
My phone just shut off at 19% as I was plugging in the charger. No orange light while plugged in. I've tried multiple cords/charging blocks. Holding the power button does nothing. Guess it's time to move on from HTC and Verizon.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] xunholyx:
Just plug it in and leave it plugged in. Something similar happened to me about two weeks ago while streaming over BT at work in freezing temperatures. I just left the phone plugged in for an hour or two and it booted up again just fine.

P.S. : I got myself a Pixel 2XL last week. I'm still using the 10 more as a daily driver for work (I'm in construction and the 10 is solid), but the 2XL is my phone for nights and weekends and I love it! Plus Google will keep their update promises. HTC has not been able to over the last few years even though it was part of what they promoted.

I still have love for HTC though, and I hope they get their act together
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] buddahj:
Looks like it's back from the dead. I was able to finally boot up into download mode. Once there, I booted into the bootloader mode and rebooted into recovery. Then rebooted system and bam...back into my phone. Hopefully it'll last 2 more month lol.
