[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Igorfmedeiros:
The new twrp works fine
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] darkdaemon32:
Hopefully this means more support in the future. Did you flash or boot? Curious if it will bootloop if I flash the img
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Igorfmedeiros:
Installation:

If you do not already have TWRP installed: Download twrp img. You will need to have fastboot binaries and the correct drivers installed. Power off your device completely. Hold volume down and turn on the device. Your device should now be in the bootloader. Connect the device to your PC. Open a command window and run the following command from the proper location:

fastboot boot twrp.img

This will temporarily boot TWRP on your device.
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] darkdaemon32:
I'm aware of how to boot TWRP on my device. I was wondering if it would be possible to *flash* it though. As I understand it you need the TWRP zip compiled and was wondering if you got that working or not for this device.

Booting is fine for now but I need to have TWRP as recovery for bootloops when I don't have my PC available

Edit for spelling
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] sirkuttin:
what works

I have downloaded the twrp.img

I ran fastboot boot twrp.img

I have downloaded magisk 17.1 and flashed it via twrp

Installed Magisk Modules: AdgaurdDNS, Greenify4Magisk, and Viper4Android FX

what doesn't work

installed xposed framework via magisk -> caused bootloop
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] darkdaemon32:
Pretty sure it's an Xposed bug because Xposed bootloops on any device that's got 8.1 with latest patches
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] cmatthewb101:
So if we can unlock the bootloader, and boot to twrp, can we not install supersu from there? Or am I understanding this wrong?
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] darkdaemon32:
Magisk is superior in about every way. Also super su isn't being developed anymore
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] cmatthewb101:
Ah, I'll look into it more. My last phone was forever old, and my only option was SuperSU. Thanks!
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Igorfmedeiros:
please any help update the download TWRP file, because in github the developers say mount vendor is working, but the file in twrp webpage its old.

Has anyone tried booting this on the Sprint version
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] junior0202:
Help me plz

hello, Im trying to install the twrp recovery but i cant, its happing a error

(bootloader) Invalid partition name recovery

FAILED (remote failure)

finished. total time: 0.999s

and i dont know how to solve, please help me
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] darkdaemon32:
Trwp can't be installed on this device as far as I know. Available twrp is for booting purposes only.
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] xuxii:
Whenever I use the command fastboot boot twrp.img, it boots just fine but if I try to use fastboot flash recovery twrp.img, it gives me an invalid partition name recovery error. I am trying to root the device. To my understanding, if you just boot into TWP, its only temporary. I guess my question is, is flashing the .img necessary and if so, why is it giving me this error? I got the .img from the offical website, its in the same folder as fastboot, and even boots right up if using the boot command so the image isnt corrupt. Any suggestions?
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] darkdaemon32:
You don't need twrp for root. Boot the image and use magisk to root your device systemlessly. SuperSU is depreciated. And twrp hasn't been built for this device in a flashable format. You can only boot temporarily and install magisk.
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] abowlby:
So can I root this device without installing TWRP? I want to continue using my mods (which I believe TWRP will break) and I don't really care about the custom recovery at this point but want root access for a few select items like AdAway.
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] darkdaemon32:
There isn't even a way to currently INSTALL TWRP on the z3. The only way to use twrp is with fastboot boot. And you use this to temporarily boot to twrp and flash the magisk installer zip for root. Magisk is systemless and doesn't modify system so you should be able to use all apps that detect system modifications such as gpay etc.
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] hadibhamed:
Would anyone help me? I saved the Magisk file to internal memory, but when I try to install TWRP (fastboot boot twrp.img) the internal memory files are encrypted.

How do I decrypt these files so I can do the Root?
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Willy33:
Remove before entering twrp, the password on the phone itself, and of course turn off the fingerprint, too, after that everything should work. Either use a memory card ..
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] hans3103:
In my case I have to type my android pass code.
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] hadibhamed:
It does not appear for me the option to enter the password and even removing the password from the mobile phone the internal memory still remains encrypted.

I can not even back up through TWRP that the error message is displayed:

"Can not create '/data/media/0/TWRP' folder (Operation not permitted). Failed to make backup folder."

Does anyone else have another suggestion to solve my problem?
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Willy33:
Developer mode and the corresponding options are included in it?
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] clcombs262:
Is it now possible, with TWRP 3.3.0-0 to flash? I know on another a/b device (Moto G7) it becomes possible

I ask because i don't have regular access to a PC, and need a plan b if a magisk module or something else f*cks my device up
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] darkdaemon32:
No. There still isn't a zip file working for flashing. Only images are provided on twrp site at this time and they can only be booted not flashed
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] DAC.IT:
I wasnt even aware we could unlock the bootloader on the z3 play!
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] heynando:
after installing MAGISK, can I install regular updates just as I normally would? or after magisk updates will brick? I noticed dmverity is disabled by default after unlocking bootloader so my guess we don't need to install universal DM-Verity disabler before installing magisk? correct? I remember we had to install dm-verity on z2 play before installing magisk.

edit: yes you can install OTAs even after installing Magisk on phones with A/B partitions, z3 is one of those, but it only works if you install Magisk using the method described here as "Boot Image Patching", easy AF.

edit2: correct, you don't need to install dm-verity on z3 Pie because it disables verity automatically.
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] ritchea:
Have you ever used this? I haven't tried it on Z3P because I'm still locked, but I've used it on my Google devices. I will be trying it out on my Pixel 3a which will be my first root with Magisk (always used SuperSU.)
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] clcombs262:
Doesn't work on an a/b device, it wont recognize any of our partitions because they're named different

---------- Post added at 03:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:48 PM ----------

Though yes I've used it with success on an older a only device

The z3 play however is A/B partition style
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] ritchea:
Thanks for that info.
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] ch3mn3y:
Does Xposed work on Pie builds? EdXposed or TaiChi, as official doesn't support it yet.I'm just before unlocking the bootloader (got my Play yesterday) and am choosing between stock woth MAGISK and Xposed and some Treble custom, as there are many thing I HAVE to modify, voz I hate hoe it looks. Would prefer to stay with stock as i have 3 MotoMods and will be buying camera one in next few days and they seem to have problems with customs :(
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] darkdaemon32:
Anyone tested the new twrp installer yet? https://dl.twrp.me/beckham/twrp-installer-3.3.1-1-beckham.zip

Looks like mtp is working now as well
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] darkdaemon32:
I couldn't even get the phone not to boot loop with Oreo. The latest security updates break Xposed for my device and Xposed aparrently needs an update to fix this.
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] vindicatorr:
I'm only able to get the TWRP logo when I "fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-1-beckham.img". There are no buttons or anything.

I CAN still shell into it, but am looking to sideload Magisk into my device.

I can't sideload Magisk with the stock boot/recovery because of "failed to verify whole-file signature".

Using dmesg, I did see

[ 3.926387,0] ueventd: loading /devices/soc/c176000.i2c/i2c-2/2-001d/firmware/MotorolaCapSense.hex took 200ms

That makes it look like it has something to do with touch.

In addition, I'm seeing

repeat what looks to be every 5 seconds.

I just tried 3.3.0.0 right now and that is working correctly.

So I'm able to boot twrp, but it freezes at the spash screen for teamwin and doesn't go anywhere from there. Anyone have any ideas what I might be doing wrong? I'm unlocked, so I don't think that's the problem, but I'm not sure what else it might be.
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] darkdaemon32:

[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] ch3mn3y:
What version of TWRP? Latest official img has problem to boot. Use older one (3.3.0-0 should be fine).
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] gullzway:
Thanks for this comment. My Z3 play was hanging up on the latest TWRP. Older one worked.

I'm still getting Installation Failed when trying to patch the boot image with magisk though? Used to be so easy back in the day.
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Amakiro:
Alright, I did something stupid. I tried the twrp installer without having a backup of the stock recovery.

How do I get it back? I can't seem to sideload through twrp at all.

EDIT: Nevermind, I got it. I had been trying to flash a slightly higher firmware through fastboot and it wasn't working. Tracking down a copy of the exact firmware version the phone was on and then flashing worked.
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] mosta00:
I had an update today..
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] rogerxcamargo:
TWRP is freezing on boot

**Neverming, it's just the latest version, i tried with twrp-3.3.1-0-beckham.img and worked.
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Markfa:
3.3.1-1 freeze on boot

same thing with me:

twrp 3.3.1-1-beckham freezes on splash screen. previous version 3.3.1-0 works fine. Is there any zip-installer-file for previous version available? otherwise its impossible to install custom rom gapps as gapps version check fails during installation. this only works with twrp installed.

Thanks for any advice!
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] s33b:
If you flash firmware, install a custom ROM (Resurrection Remix in my case), boot it, reboot into twrp with fastboot then install the img will work. I've tried with with the last version, it works, I can boot it but mtp is not working. So I use "twrp-3.3.1-v4-z3p-SEPT.img" but I don't know from where I've got the file.
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Loperaco:
Hi.

The same problem here. I found the file you mentioned in

[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Yayo70136:
new twrp update !! 3.4.0-0

the zip file can now be permanently flashed on our moto z3 play devices !!! Download the last twrp file for moto z3 play bootie the image and from the twrp menu you simply flash the .zip file (it must be on the micro sd) and voila !!! regards!
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Loperaco:
Hi Yayo, thanks for the notification !!!

I actually tried this new version and it works !, The TWRP image takes a long time to start the first time (it stays on the logo) and I thought it didn't work, but I just needed a little patience, so I waited and it started without problem, after that send the zip file and install everything as it should.

Thank you so much !
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] steveindajeep:
nice!.....its actually already up a revision to 3.4.0-1
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] steveindajeep:
Thanks for the heads up....i just flashed mine and its on the teamwin logo for what seems like a bit to much time. Ill try to be more patient lol

How long roughly did you have to wait before it went into TWRP the first time?
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] steveindajeep:
Mine wouldnt get past the boot logo of twrp on either 3.4.0-0 or 3.4.0-1. Waited 2 hrs on each and it just sat there.

I had the zip on the root directory in each case so no idea what the issue could be.

Phone still restarts fine and i can boot into twrp from fastboot so its not a huge issue i suppose. Just would have been nice to have it permanently installed.
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Je padilla:
Hola buenas noches, yo intento meter el tero.img a través de fastboot boot y del fastboot flashing y en ambos casos se queda congelada el comando y no avanza nada, espero me puedan ayudar y si ya desbloquie el bootloader.
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] jonshipman:
Just an update, I too don't have access to TWRP using the stock system. However, when booted it stays on the TWRP splashscreen and is available to ADB from a PC.

Could be nice to have in an emergency - to be able to access the device with adb even if system isn't booting. Better than nothing.
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] PrivacyFirst:
I can't get TWRP

Has anyone tried this with twrp-3.5.2? I get to the TWRP splashscreen, and it sits there forever. I tried twice, each time I let it sit for ~14hrs. Now if I reboot to recovery, it just sits on the TWRP splashscreen. I started with the latest TWRP, so I don't know if earlier versions will work for me either.

Things that might matter:

* The phone says it is encrypted. TWRP never asked for a pin. Actually, nothing seems to ever ask for an encryption pin. That makes the encryption pretty useless.

* The first time the phone had a pin set to unlock the phone.

The second time I removed the pin for unlock.

I still never see anything about an encryption pin.

My steps:

0) Factory reset the phone. Unlock the bootloader.

1) Boot to TWRP

$ adb reboot bootloader

$ fastboot boot twrp-3.5.2_9-0-beckham.img

2) Ensure the A/B slots match (script from lineageOS install instructions)

- In TWRP - select Advanced | Sideload

$ adb sideload copy-partitions-20210323_1922.zip

(I think the script ran automatically. If not, I ran it.)

- In TWRP - reboot to recovery

3) Install LineageOS (Android 11)

$ adb push lineage-18.1-20210714-nightly-beckham-signed.zip

In TWRP

- choose INSTALL

- uncheck verification

- select lineage zip

- swipe to start

4) Try to permanently install TWRP

$ adb reboot bootloader

$ fastboot boot twrp-3.5.2_9-0-beckham.img

# Put the TWRP ZIP on the disk (zip and zip.asc, zip.md5, zip.sha256)

# I don't know which one is used for the verification step

$ adb push twrp-installer-3.5.2_9-0-beckham.zip* /sdcard/Download

In TWRP

- choose INSTALL

- select twrp-installer-3.5.2_9-0-beckham.zip

- swipe to install

Now it goes to TWRP and takes a few hours (as people said it would)

Any help would be appreciated.

I'm open to alternative android 11 ROMS (The lineageOS one is pretty ugly) if people have suggestions. I'd like android 11 for the better permission controls. The build must be Google (gstore, gapps, location services, etc) free.

Hi. I have a KLD MTCE with an 8" screen. It seems that the screen is soft plastic not glass. I scratched it with my finger tip from swiping through the menus. Does anyone else have this issue? Is the front of display replaceable? Thanks
[MTCD Android Head Units General] LJ1981:
Noticed this also today. Been setting everything up and running this week, and noticed several scratches in middle of the screen. Bought screen protector and installed it. Had to cut it to fit. It made scratches little harder to see.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] stinger4321:
Do you have a link? Also thinking about a matte protector to help with sunlight.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] LJ1981:
I bought the protector from a local shop here in Finland.

Same issue there with my Belsee unit (KLD), the screen doesn't seem to have any glass protection and is pretty dark, hard to see in sunlight.

These unit screens seem quite poor :(
[MTCD Android Head Units General] FrankNS:
Had the same problem with my wondefoo unit. I Disasembled the unit to polish scratches out and add a screen protector. But then i see it was an additional production film/layer on the screen. Only that was scratched. Removed it and now the real glass is visible and its real stable. No scratches so far.
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] gemah:
I own a 2014819 Redmi 2 with 8GB of internal storage and 1GB of ram. I've been using LineageOS 15.1 as of now and ever since I've installed the last update my phone hangs and freezes more frequently, and for longer time.

This happened in previous LOS nightlies and AOKP as well, it just was less annoying overall. I've tried fiddling with Kernel Adiutor, making so the minimal frequency is 1GHz rather than 800MHz, but that only made it worse somehow.

Does anyone has any idea how to make the custom rom experience more smooth on the lower-end Redmi 2? I don't wanna go back to an older rom if possible.
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] a1bert1:
hi, there is no problem with cpu power but RAM! LineageOS 15.1 official builds does not use ZRAM and developers refuse to enable it (don't ask me why).

You can try to flash pico opengapps instead of recomended MindTheGapps (it will save some RAM by no including google search) and/or enable swapping (but it will probably kill your SDcard)
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] gemah:
I had OpenGApps Nano flashed, but I avoid using Google things aside from the Play Store itself.

I also remembered that Low-RAM Property Patcher for Android is a thing and flashed the low-ram enabler. Works fine on LOS 15.1, but as said in the thread, some functionality will be disabled to improve RAM usage.

I'll use this for a while and see if it's worth it or not.
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] zulkosaki:
You can try Bootlegger 20180804 build, which is very good and has zram enable. And still smooth with minimal gapps installed.
[Vivo V11 Questions & Answers] whymakemedothis:
UPDATE: Based on below responses, it has an emulated/pseudo 'AK09918' gyroscope, instead of a real hardware sensor.

Anybody who actually has the physical device with them, can you please confirm if the V11 Pro has a gyroscope sensor? It is not mentioned in GSMArena, and the sensor is missing on the V11 Pro website as well: https://www.vivo.com/in/products/v11pro

You can check using this app (or any other suitable app) and send screenshots to help everyone.

[Vivo V11 Questions & Answers] whymakemedothis:
Ok. This means there is not a real gyroscope sensor. Changes in angular rotation are approximately measured using a combination of accelerometer and magnetometer. Probably why the resolution on your screenshot shows only as 0.1.
