[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] savagevegeta:
Is it possible to SIM unlock this phone? I've looked around but the threads I see all require a paid service or things that haven't even been tested. I don't want to throw money at SIM unlocking because I don't trust those paid 3rd party services. Is it even able to be connected to MetroPCS, if anything? I know it's a CDMA and GSM difference, but specs online don't show specified carriers like other phones would unless they support GSM and CDMA like the iPhone and Galaxy S7 and such.
[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] madbat99:
Sprint will do it if you've met their criteria.
[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] savagevegeta:
I'm not with Sprint anymore. Would they still do it?
[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] madbat99:
Doubt it. I think it has to be activated for 6 months first.

Good luck! I had a sharp aquious crystal with Sprint years ago and they refused to unlock it because I hadn't been with them long enough. ?
[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] MotoJunkie01:
The Sprint compatible variant of the Moto E4 (xt1766) is likely network locked with carrier implemented encryption. On the Moto E LTE (xt1526), for example, the Sprint compatible variant, GSM functionality was disabled by the provider using a rather clandestine encryption method. Three of the device's partitions, namely, the /hob, /dhob & /pds partitions, were encrypted to prevent any GSM functionality with the global providers. To the best of my knowledge, as of today, no exploit or user-end modification has ever been discovered to decrypt the network restrictions. This is also the case with a number of Lenovo & Motorola Mobility manufactured smartphones, including, it would appear, the Sprint compatible Moto E4.
[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] uwapalwa:
its possible
[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] MotoJunkie01:
I must go back from my previous post and correct the statement I made regarding the SIM lock status of the xt1766 SPerry Moto E4. Unlike many of it's predacessors, the Moto E4 is not network locked via encryption or partition security. In fact, the Sprint/Boost Mobile/Virgin Mobile variants of the xt1766 is not SIM or network locked at all -- at least not in the traditional sense of the term. Rather, the apparent network restrictions are in the stock firmware (Android OS) itself. When the stock ROM is replaced by any of the several custom Android ROMs available for the xt1766 -- LineageOS 14.1, for example, the device will automatically recognize and support SIM cards from GSM networks such as AT&T, T-Mobile, Cricket, H20, etc. It should be noted here that the xt1766 has quad-band GSM capabilities (850/900 1800/1900), support for WCDMA Bands 1, 2, 4, 5 and 8, and supports LTE Bands 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 12, 13, 17, 25, 26, 44, as well as the newer 1700MHz LTE Band 66. So, if you're using an AT&T SIM or AT&T based MVNO or subsidiary, which uses LTE Bands 2, 4, 5, 12 and 17, voice, SMS/MMS, and 4G/LTE data are fully supported. If you are using a T-Mobile based MVNO or subsidiary, or a T-Mobile SIM, utilizing LTE Bands 2, 4, 12 and 66, you are also fully covered. Outside the United States, please check the specs of your global provider to make sure that the required bands are supported. It's also noteworthy that, whichever GSM provider you are using, it will likely be necessary to go to device SETTINGS>MOBILE NETWORKS and manually configure an Access Point Name (APN) for data and MMS services specific to your provider.
[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] nookin:
I have a Sprint Moto E (2015) and it seems that it is only SIM locked to US carriers. A foreign SIM seems to come up just fine without setting anything. Even let me change APN.

There are 3 sellers on eBay selling remote unlock service for the Boost Moto E4. Interestly, they all mention that unlocked E4 will not work in US. Whereas other people running 3rd party ROM has no problem using T-Mobile / AT&T. So I guess their unlock mechanism is different and perhaps bringing the Moto E4 into a state similar to the Sprint Moto E2.
[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] MotoJunkie01:
All Sprint compatible models of the Moto E LTE (2nd Gen) 2015, as you correctly noted, are unlockable for international GSM carriers, but are GSM disabled for domestic use.

The Sprint Moto E4 (xt1766) is not SIM locked at all for domestic GSM usage -- at least not in a technical sense. The GSM restrictions on the xt1766 are coded within the stock firmware. Flashing a custom ROM and the APN fixes and blobs will enable GSM support. On the xt1526, GSM service is disabled via embedded encryption to the /pds, /hob and /dhob partitions. To the best of my knowledge, nobody has been yet successful in disabling it.

On the Moto E4 xt1766, the launch version of the firmware allows domestic GSM support, and even allows APN editing.

While I realize I've previously mentioned these points, I'm pointing out the key differences in Sprint's policies of carrier locking between the Moto E LTE (xt1526) and the Moto E4 (xt1766). The xt1526 was based on partition encryption, which is not alterable. And the xt1766 is firmware based, which obviously can be modified and removed.
[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] aarem:
Hi, I have a sprint Moto E4 (xt1766) that is rooted and has lineage OS installed as per https://xdaforums.com/moto-e4/moto-...neageos-14-1-moto-e4-qualcomm-t3690156/page36 but I get a No SIM when I put in a US TMobile SIM. (Without a SIM, I get "No SIM card -- Emergency calls only" so clearly, the phone recognizes the SIM. And the SIM works fine on a Nexus 4.)

I wonder what I need to do to get the SIM working on my XT1766. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks again in advance.

[Asus ZenFone 3 Deluxe Questions & Answers] Sandman45654:
View attachment 4409791

I just wanted to post a short topic letting other users know that there may be a charging issue with WW-5.17.44.68. A couple of days after updating to the most recent firmware I suddenly began having charging issues with my Zenfone 3 Deluxe special edition. Shortly after hooking up the factory charger I would receive this error message accompanied by the same alert sound that Amber Alerts use. The only way I was able to get the phone to charge at all was to roll back to my pre WW-5.17.44.68 nandroid. Trying different chargers with different cables made zero difference. The error is dead on as pulling out the USB cord you can clearly feel it is quite hot. Ignoring or missing this error will most likely guarantee a fried charge port (minimal)! Immediately after installing my backup all issues went away. I am currently charging with the factory charger and cable now without heat/error.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Deluxe Questions & Answers] asianflipboy:
That's rough. I haven't bothered with the update because it's too much of a hassle right now to go to stock recovery and update. I think your best bet would be to stay on your backed up firmware and wait out the Oreo update (which should be soon as well.)

Thanks for the heads up. Hopefully it isn't a widespread issue.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Deluxe Questions & Answers] Sandman45654:
After feeling how hot the USB port/plug got I am in no hurry to try it again! I could even smell the charge board heating up. That is quite a gut-wrenching smell when it comes to a phone costing as much as this one. I too hope that it isn't a widespread issue.

I completed a full wipe before installing the firmware and tried multiple USB cords and chargers after. The only thing that fixed the issue was downgrading. That leaves the firmware as the main suspect which is why I decided to post my findings.

If anyone is considering updating PLEASE have a recent nandroid FIRST.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Deluxe Questions & Answers] Chaosruler:
Thanks for the warning, indeed they did add battery improvement to the changelog....

I did update to the newest firmware and I am charging using Zenfone 2 chargers, I just checked it out and it doesn't seem too hot.... maybe it applies only to QuickCharge chargers....

though I do have an issue that when my phone is locked (aka screen is turned off, phone is running... sleep mode) I have some screen flickering... the whole screen flashes white for just one second before turning off again... kinda annoying as it also wastes a lot of battery
[Asus ZenFone 3 Deluxe Questions & Answers] Sandman45654:
If I recall correctly the Zenfone 2 charger supports the same range of voltages. 5-9-12 volts with varying amperage.

Your screen issues could quite possibly be caused by a rogue app. I've noticed using the "Always On" feature my phone will flash white from time to time. Not the entire screen mind you, just the clock being shown with full brightness for one cycle. If you have TWRP installed it would be worth a backup/wipe to see if it is indeed software. Good luck with your issue :)

Good news time for everyone except me! After charging the phone twice the error message has shown its ugly face once again. So it seems that my phone is actually to blame :'-( I've cleaned the USB-C port with some contact cleaner sprayed onto a small piece of folded paper. So far it seems to have done the trick. USB-C is great for ease of use but not so great for keeping debris out.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Deluxe Questions & Answers] Sandman45654:
I have found the actual cause of my issues. It's an unusual one so I thought I should share. It turns out that an old florescent table lamp I recently started using again basically turned itself into an EMP device. All of the electromagnetic interference feeding back through the surge protector has caused both my phone charger and my 6 bay 18650 (vaporizer) battery charger to malfunction. After unplugging the lamp the overheating issue has stopped. The phone charger no longer quick charges but I'll take that over a dead phone any day! The issue with my 6 bay charger, if you were curious is that I have to power cycle it each time i want to establish a bluetooth connection now. Its crazy some of the curveballs life can throw your way!

As far as I know when you unlock bootloader you loose TA Partition (unless you backup it and then restore it)

So if you loose this TA partition as far as I know you camera quality will gone crazy bad, how bad, can you give me samples?

After I install for example Lineage 14.1, can I restore this ta partition and get my camera quality back?

I don't use X-Reality so I don't care about it. I need answers and camera samples without those keys.

last question, is it worth using AOSP roms without TA ??

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] DelphinusMinor:
Having that issue right now. Hanging on the first app.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] bober10113:
i think its an oreo issue. you can change the way that apps are stored in preference/app processing mode.(way down at the bottom)

note sure if it will help but try out one of the other 2 methods available.

my issue is that app crashes after i start it. on a freshly installed oreo build it works. if i restore all my apps and then revisit TiBu then it will crash. so its either the quantity of apps that i now have accumulated over the years and after they are restores when app is refreshing the number of apps to manage it crashes or one app in particular is causing the issue.

Dear everyone,

Does anybody know how to make NIKI set default keyboard after I soft reset?

I had tried SIPchange, but it make my NIKI go crazy, hang and display cannot be accessed!!! I hard reset it 3 times, it always happen after I installed SIPchange then Soft reset.

So, I want to know is there any way to change default keyboard that windows will run itself after soft reset?

Thanks in advance all guy.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] Rudegar:
the program is called "sip change"

if you have wisbar advanced you could set that up in one of the settings.i set mine to the standard keyboard.

SIP Change does not work on touch dual, so instead I use Phone Alarm 1.66 which has an option to select your chosen SIP upon boot:) I highly recommend this app!

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] :re:
Hello,I bought this phone like 8 months ago and 6 days later after I bought it I decided to install LineageOS.So basic stuff install drivers,USB debug all that stuff.Great.I flash TWRP with Odin and it all works great.I wipe everything and then I flash gapps and LineageOS.

I used the rom for like 3 hours before i decided that it's too buggy and it won't be my daily driver so I used Samsung Smart Switch and I used the code from the sticker to restore original rom.

Everything goes fine.I don't really know if my knox tripped because I didn't root,I still get OTA updates(but I won't install them),device status is official but S Health doesn't work.I don't have root access or a custom recovery.It's just like new.Did knox trip ? I don't care about the warranty because my carrier probably won't check if knox is tripped or not.

I am already working on this since last summer and now I am finally at a point, where I am willing to show it to other people and ask about opinions. This is the first time i coded something, but thanks to Unity and Visual Studio I achieved a pretty decent result I would say. For that purpose I learned a bit of C#(More than I would have thought of, to be honest ;) ) Since probably everyone of you is more experienced on this topic than I am, I would be pleased if you could give me some feedback/ stuff I can improve or do better. One problem I dont really know how to tackle is the size of my Apk, i already compressed some of the images and got it down to 37 mb, but its still unproportionally big in my opinion, or is this normal? I will also upload a build for you without any advertisement

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 16Patriot:
First off, I appreciate any input on this very much.

The phone is an LG K8 2017, or model US215, and this is actually the second time this has happened on a second device. Both times this has occurred, it's been during charging.

The first time, on the first device, the device was off when I took it off the charger, and would not power on until I removed and replaced the battery. Later that day, the device seemed to be lagging, so I rebooted it, and was taken to the fastboot screen. I Googled and Googled, and corresponded with LG before taking the phone back to the retailer and exchanging for another, as I'd only had it a few days.

Now, with the second device, which I've been using for several weeks, there were a couple of times that the phone was off after charging, and the battery had to be removed/replaced to start it. This time, the phone was (maybe for the third time) off when I removed it from the charger. Fearing the same issue, I removed/replaced the battery, and unfortunately, was met with the fastboot screen. LG will repair it under warranty, but I don't have a backup, and can't go weeks without a phone. I've searched high and low, and cannot seem to come up with an answer, or find a situation identical to mine.

I've tried fastboot reboot with ADB, but it requires USB debugging to be enabled on the device, which mine was not, and I'm not able to access it now. The phone was completely stock. Hard-reset does not work, as it always boots back to the fastboot screen. I am, however, still able to access this screen, and download mode. I've tried to include as much info as possible, but am eagerly awaiting responses, so I can answer any questions. Again, thank you to anyone with input!
