[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] tjbp:
I have a reproducible problem using TWRP - when I first install Lineage OS to my phone, TWRP works fine whenever I boot to it. After a single Lineage OS OTA update, it still works - but after the second or third update, TWRP becomes stuck in an endless loop while booting. The teamwin logo appears for 20-40 seconds, then the screen goes blank for 2 seconds, before the teamwin logo reappears. It will perform this loop forever if left - both if I reboot for an OTA update, or if I select recovery via the bootloader.

I've tried flashing the recovery partition with the latest version as well as earlier versions, and also erasing the cache partition and deleting /data/dalvik-cache via adb shell - none make any difference. The only way I've fixed it (temporarily until the next update anyway) was when I wiped and flashed the userdata and system partitions.

Is there a TWRP log I can look at to identify the problem?

Edit: Just realised I can adb shell in and output dmesg. The /sbin/recovery process is using too much memory and getting hit by the OOM killer - I'm guessing this is one for TWRP upstream...
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] Love Dhir:
Reflash the latest twrp image it will work
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] tjbp:
Thanks - actually I found the solution - TWRP was attempting to read from my SD card when it booted, which had unreadable/corrupt blocks on it. The failure to read from the card caused an infinite loop and resulting memory leak causing it to be killed by the OOM killer. Removing the SD card solved it.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] Apo11on:
T-Mobile One plans classify all network devices into 3 categories: voice(phone), tablet and hotspot. The network retrieves information from the device itself about device type when your device boots and attempts to register itself on T-Mo network to get service. I would like to know how to change (hack) device classification, so T-Mobile network would, for example, see my phone as a tablet device. Anyone with information where this is stored, or a clue how to make T-Mo network misread it - please share.

I've been following directions to allow for a new system app to have permissions. This is the last step.

The directions call to edit the file “root/system_root/system/etc/permissions/privapp-permissions-marlin.xml”

There is no such file because, I am assuming, Marlin is a Pixel XL, not a Pixel 2 XL.

I looked for a Taimen file and could not locate one.

Any ideas?

[General Questions and Answers] Latrell567:
Hey everybody,

So my Gear S3 and lack of firmware for my specific model inspired me to make this thread.

As you may know... Samsung makes different firmware for different device model numbers. For example... there's a specific software version for my T-Mobile Gear S3 frontier. The Gear S3 frontier Bluetooth has different firmware, the Gear S3 classic Bluetooth has different firmware... and the list goes on from there. And that leads to a problem...

I've been trying to downgrade my Gear S3 frontier to Tizen 2, and while there's a firmware that's out there for Tizen 2, it's too old. But there is one for a different model number. The Bluetooth only version

Only if Samsung provided the same firmware for the different model numbers. If that was the case, this post wouldn't exist... and I'd be happily back on Tizen 2. But nope, that's not how it works. How do you think Apple does it? They probably let the software identify the model number, then do all the magic to work right with that device. For example it might identify that it's a LTE Apple Watch, then enable all of the settings for the LTE watch. And if it identifies it's a GPS version, it'll disable the LTE stuff. I'm not sure though, but I know the different iPhone's and Apple Watch models get the same software.

This could possibly lead to faster updates too. Like, a lot faster. Apple owns watchOS, and Samsung owns Tizen, right? So shouldn't all the different Tizen watch models get the update as soon as the update's released? With all the different watch models getting it at the same time?

Samsung's making it worse for themselves because they have to release different firmwares for all of the different device models, and different devices themselves. Which is probably why updates take so long.

Samsung, I really hope you're reading this and end this problem.

I also want to start a petition to get Samsung to stop with this, because I'm sure me, and all of the developers and contributors are getting annoyed by this. So if I'm not alone, then I will start a petition. Not sure where to do it but maybe you all can help with that too.

Thank you.

If the defect wasn't caused by the crack, the manufacturer should fix under warranty. Your carrier may also be of help. Call them.

It will never be released officially - Motorola don't release these files - they are either leaked or someone modifies existing files

You can try

www.kriztekblog.com/2016/10/how-to-flash-qualcomm-mbn-firmware-qpst-tool.html/amp

Make sure you install everything & put all files in root of c: keep paths short with no spaces eg c:/flashtool

Iv no idea what else maybe required as I don't have this device anymore & even if I did I'd only test it if my device needed reimaging

solution

1- remove the motorola drivers that you have installed on your computer

2- install the latest version of Qualcomm usb driver

3- Restart your computer in error test mode

4- run the blankflash file

5- connect the device to the usb port

1- remueve los controladores motorola que tengas instaldo en tu computadora

2- instala la ultima version de Qualcomm usb driver

3- reinicia tu computadora en modo prueba de error

4- ejecuta el archivo blankflash

5- conecta el dispositivo al puerto usb

if the device does not connect you verify that in device manager it appears in the COM port

si no te conecta el dispositivo verifica que en administrador de dispositivo te aparesca en el puerto COM

lucky I hope it is the correct blankflash since the one that is hanging around is that of the Moto G4
