[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Sparkzz27:
First things first. I surrender. I'm a noob with android. I had windows phone previously and only now came to android.

Here's the scenario:

1. My z2 force was properly rooted with magisk and twrp. I followed the guide in xda only.

2. My device was brought from India so carriers like sprint, t-mobile are not applicable I think.

What I Did:

0. Wanted to unroot my device. So, I decided to first uninstall the modules in magisk that I had installed.

1. Tried to uninstall magisk modules and rebooted from the magisk application.

2. Got into Boot loop, so went to recovery mod and wiped everything. Hard reset was done.

3. Installed magisk app again and clicked uninstall to remove root. I wanted to install the latest security update. Update kept failing so I decided to unroot. I choose uninstall completely option.

4. Rebooted the phone manually after clicking uninstall in magisk manager. Using the 'root checker' app I checked if unrooting was successful but it said, 'root was not properly installed' or something like that. So, I installed magisk manager again and again uninstalled root completely.

5. Still same issue. Root checker said the same thing again. So, installed magisk manager again and this time I wanted to remove root using ES file manager as I saw in an online guide. But I couldn't give it root permission because it was not properly installed as said by root checker. So, I decided to root my phone properly but stupid me, clicked 'install' in magisk manager and chose the recommended option (don't remember exactly what it was). It downloaded magisk zip and did some changes and asked to reboot. After rebooting, my phone went straight to the black screen with an android icon and 'no command' written below it. It kept going there again and again.

6. I assume that is the recovery mode. I press volume up and power button and choose the wipe everything again(Like I did before) to hard reset phone. Wiping was successful but it still kept booting to that black screen.

Additional Info:

1. Phone wasn't carrier version. It was bought in India. It is running Oreo 8.0.

2. In bootloader menu : (Not stating all)

BL: MBM-3.0-nash_retail-641a15b-180306

Product/Variant: nask xt1789-06 64GB PVT

Console[NULL] :null

Tools Mode Config: DISABLED

Power OK

flashing_unlocked

Software Status : Modified

Transfer Mode : USB Connected.

3. Yes, Bootloader menu is accessible.

4. Choosing recovery mode in bootloader menu reboots phone and takes me to that blank screen I mentioned before.

5. Connecting to USB to my PC when in bootloader menu, it connects as 'Fastboot nash S'. ADB terminal says no devices found.

What I want:

1. Boot into OS.

2. Remove root completely so I can install system update.

Please help or offer suggestions as I do not have a secondary device with me. If I have to absolutely go to a service center, I will.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] 41rw4lk:
You should flash it back to stock.

You posted that your phone is nash xt1789-06 64GB PVT, you can grab the latest firmware here.

The flashing instructions are here in post #5, and any question you might have is most likely answered in that thread.

Just download the firmware, boot into bootloader mode, and follow the instructions.

FYI in fastboot mode adb commands don't work, it's fastboot. To verify that you're connected and ready type

fastboot devices

and you should see your serial# like you do in adb.

That should put you back to stock and good to go.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Sparkzz27:
Thank you for the reply. I figured it out and went ahead with it. But now, I'm not seeing the May security update. The device shows it has March update and that no other update is available. Any idea why? Also, root checker still says 'root not properly installed'. How to unroot completely? Thanks a lot!
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] fast69mopar:
Did you look to see if the May Security Update has been released for your specific device? When you downloaded the stock firmware did you look to see what month security patch it contained? Have you tried to perform a system update to see if you can OTA to the latest security patch?

Now, if you completely flashed back to stock then root is removed. Root checker says that because root access is not installed at all. Flashing back to stock removes any trace of root, IIRC.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] 41rw4lk:
Don't forget, if you followed the flashing instructions from the other post they were omitting the gpt.bin and bootloader. So if you didn't flash those then that's why you're probably not seeing any updates, you need to be on full stock all matched up. Just reflash the firmware you downloaded in its entirety. [MENTION=6100684]fast69mopar[/MENTION] is right, once you flash a new boot.img root is gone, and since you flashed back to stock it's definitely gone.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Chien35:
If you flash with factory image you should be unroot completely and root checker will keep telling you "root not properly installed" if you are not rooted just ignore root checker if you not planning to be rooted.

Hi there I have a xt1789-06 I was not getting updates and flashed the first Oreo update from here https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/nash/official/RETAIL/

My phone now does the updates and everything works fine.

However I did try to flash a custom ROM and root I made a mistake and ended up both a hard brick, because I was on Oreo I thought that flashing the Oreo blank flash would rectify the problem, but it was not working so I tried flashing the N blank flash and it worked.

I've come from using Samsung phones so I'm use to Odin and have not used fastboot commands. After reading many threads I know what I had done was not decrypting my device which ended up with a hard brick I will in the future flash a custom ROM now I know a little bit more.

Blank flash files are here

https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/nash/blankflash/

Then once back to fastboot flash the flash all from the link at the top of my post.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Sparkzz27:
Hi, sorry I was busy with work. I managed to use my phone that way. I didn't use the instructions in that post. Instead, I download flashallutilities (In how to return to stock post in xda for z2 force), then ran the batch file which did all the work. I noticed other problems too,

1. My Jio sim(4g LTE) does not show 'enhanced LTE mode' in options. Also when I call someone, it fails immediately saying 'call failed. try another method.' However, internet connection works from the sim. My other sim works fine for calls and data.

2. I'm seeing other keyboards in manage keyboards section. I don't recall seeing google pinyin input, zhuyin input, etc before. What's worse is my office's app shows option to switch to chinese version of the website for logging in. My language and time zone are set correctly though - English India and GMT +5:30.

3. The web browser I used before couldn't be found in the play store anymore. My launcher still shows the icon with a green arrow in left bottom of the icon to direct me to playstore to download it but playstore says item not found. The app name is simply 'browser'. I searched for it on desktop website too (without logging in), still couldn't find it. Guess it's a coincidence,

Also: Herehttps://www.getdroidtips.com/moto-z2-z2-play-z2-force-stock-rom/#Moto_Z2_Force_Android_80_Oreo_Firmware, the carrier global version says 'OCX' instead of 'OPX'. Any idead about that?
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] 41rw4lk:
Your Z2 is a xt1789-06 correct? It's an international version, the flashall in the utilities zip from the return to stock thread is for US based phones, TMO and Sprint specifically. What was or wasn't flashed using that flashall I couldn't tell you, I don't have an international phone. That's why I linked to the post that deals with that version of the Z2 and has all the answers and links you need to sort your phone. Others in that thread might be better suited to help you along. This is the thread that deals with the xt1789-06.

As for calling and sim, might be related to how you flashed or simply an apn issue. You can go to network settings, mobile, access point names, and reset those to default. That should pull the apns from your sim so you'll have the correct apns.

As for keyboards and browsers, I don't know what is included in the international stock versions, but they are subject to change based on initial setup/default language and rom version. As for the OCX vs OPX, I'm not sure what the difference is. I know 'O' is for Oreo but for the rest I don't know. Maybe one is gsm one is cdma? I don't know. I do know that the thread I linked to will have more info and be able to help you better since it's for your version of the Z2. Sorry I can't help you more, but post any questions you have over there and they should be able to sort you out.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] bencetari:
Usually the only reason why magisk SafetyNET fails is that Xposed is installed in SYSTEM or in SYSTEM-LESS mode. If you want to pass SafetyNET, you have to remove xposed from the device itself, bc xposed is a framework modification and the framework is included in the SYSTEM, any modification of it would trigger SafetyNET Fingerprint check. Just like rooting a Samsung and triggering Knox, only safteynet fail can be reversed unlike Knox.

Hi fellow devs!

I need to modify my hosts to block some ip address/domains, but it doesn't seem to have an effect. I have an S-OFF, rooted phone, running on stock rom which has been OTA updated to android 8.0.0.

I can edit /system/etc/hosts when the system is booted, using root explorer, BUT, the changes and domains I put in it, seem to have no effect.

An example line looks like this:

0.0.0.0 test.domain.com

** EDIT ** ----------

Well, silly me, the solution was to use IP 127.0.0.1, not 0.0.0.0. (the example file I had gotten must have expected the user to update these values).

Sorry for taking your time!

cheers,

I installed the font by downloading the TTF file and creating a theme with it using EMUI Theme Editor.

[Xperia Z5 Compact General] oneofthekaramosowbrothers:
I'm an absolutely clueless regarding Android development but I always read that what keeps Oreo from coming to the z5c is a kernel (4.4) from being available for the MSM8994 Snapdragon 810.

However there are phones out there like the Nexus with this chip that run Oreo, if I'm not mistaken.

Perhaps someone can explain the details to me.

[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] T@z90:
Hello all,

I recently changed my phone carrier, and I noticed phone doesn't go in LTE+ mode anymore. Apparently, the phone is able to aggregate band 3 and 1, which was the combination my previous carrier was using, but not 3 and 7.

I read a bit around, and found out some useful discussion here:

http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=redirect&goto=findpost&ptid=392070&pid=10016974

which gave me the opportunity to understand how to set the carrier aggregation on different bands, and avoid to add any combination on band 7 which apparently isn't managed properly.

So, I used QXDM to change the nvram values on band 3 CA (default is 5, which is band 3+1 aggregation), and my phone was able to aggregate 3+7 bands, but that leads to a loop between LTE+ and LTE, which ends with phone in H.

After reverting the changes, phone goes normally in LTE.

Is there any way to enable Carrier aggregation on Mi 5, on combinations not originally present in the firmware? Or does Mi 5 lack the hardware to do so?
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] gingerboy92:
I dont really have the technical knowledge, but if you look at some of band 1 configs, there's a few values that are set for carrier aggregation that are not set for other bands. I think we need to configure a few more things than just enabling the CA values. Been trying to figure this out for some time. Too bad i don't have any other phone with proper ca support to compare

and where do people find all these registry cabs, and how come other builders don't share them?

I know theres a list of apps on the link, but they're not updated and not as complete.

also, I think that rom comes with Cnet2, how can i get the new Cnet3?

Also, Say i put Flash 7 in the oem folder, and next week flash 8 comes out, do I just install flash 8 and it will update it in my phone?

or do I need to recook, since you can't uninstall OEM stuff.

Why doesn't the FTP work? i tried xdaupload/xdaupload.

So the Kenzo (and Kate) definitely has a Qualcomm S650 SOC also known as MSM8956, but ...

Most utilities report the SOC as MSM8952 which is the code for S617, a very different chip

So when utility apps query the phone it reports back MSM8952 and the app will think it is a S617 but that is incorrect, it is a s650

My question is - what is the method for the app code to query and always return the correct result of MSM8956 ?

Many thanks

solved -

MSM8952, S617 has max cpu freq. = 1.4MHz
