[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] atricapilla:
Hi, idk how active this thread is, but i hope someone is able to help me.

I installed Lineage on my Moto G7 Power a few days ago, and after rebooting it yesterday, it's stuck in bootloop (the Lineage starting animation is displaying), i have left it for 4 hours with nothing changing. I can reboot it by holding the power button and I am able to get into recovery. USB debugging still works aswell.

I installed the newest nightly Lineage build for ocean (19.1), along with MindTheGapps and TWRP.

This has happened again, 2 days ago. I tried dirty flashing the same lineage version and nothing happened. I ended up completely restoring my phone using the official tool motorola provides.

then, after reinstalling lineage and twrp this time (so i would have access to my data if it were to happen again), and setting everthing up again, it just happened again yesterday.

things I've tried:

- clearing the cache using twrp

- letting it boot for hours on end

- repairing the file system with twrp (idek what that does, but I had hopes)

I would really like to just find a solution to this, as I very much enjoyed using Lineage (when it was working), but reinstalling everything every 2 days is not an option. this **** is driving me insane, i haven't been able to find a decently answered forum post on this anywhere.

so yeah, if anyone is still active on this thread, i would be eternally grateful for any help I can get.

thank you <3

I was messing around with my moto g7 power and accidentally renamed some files. Now i cannot get passed the you device is unlocked and can't be trusted screen. It has twrp linage ocean. Can I restore factory rom or fix the one installed without a PC.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] sd_shadow:
Unlikely, unless you saved the original Lineage.zip on the sd card.

Then you should be able to reinstall it in the custom recovery.

Has anyone got an update for the Moto G7 power. If so what security patch level and software channel is it on?

I'm trying to see if carrier base phones get better software support.

Thank you

Metro by T-Mobile will be carrying this phone started Monday April 29th. For around $120.

They have a markdown port in of $59 for this phone as of now.

I haven't received and update yet, still on the January 2019 Security Patch. Bought mine unlocked from Best Buy. Moto's website does mention an update is available. Hopefully it's released soon.

CDMA / LTE

Hey! So I also got this exact phone version cause I wanted the 64gb/4gb. What is the main carrier you use on it? ATT is working fine, but I am having trouble with a Straighttalk Verizon sim. Data works fine, but I cant get texting or voice to work, I think cause its not trying to use LTE for voice also.

EDIT// I think that its becuase this phone is lacking band 13 which is a primary band? but it does have 66 which must be data... Is the actual hardware the same? like could I flash a modem?
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] Idiyeet:
I'm liking the Moto G7 Power so far. Bought it unlocked from Best Buy yesterday and flashed a few modules like Viper Audio, Magisk, etc. I wanted to ask when and if TWRP will be available for this phone..? I know the regular G7 line up has support for it as well as a few ROM's as well so I was wondering if this model will get the same treatment and opportunity. All I want is just a nice theme to add to my phone.

Here's hoping we get a TWRP port and a few ROM's.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] Jokert129:
Yea im so pissed off at motorolla. This phone is great but when they basically said f*you when i asked them if the RETEU software channel will get an update ( im still on december 2018 patch !!! ) i just started waiting for a TWRP port and hopefully a good ROM in the likes of LineageOs.

Also hoping to change the wifi region so i can have 5Ghz but need root for that first

The only problem is that now if i wanna transfer everything from a non root to a rooted environment with unlocked bootloader and a custom ROM it will be a pain in the ass ( since unlocking bootloader resets phone ), its much easier to do while rooted since you just do titanium backup, but there is no way to root without unlocking bootloader first...
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] Idiyeet:
Doesnt your phone have Google photos and stuff? Then for contacts just sync it with your Google account. And I'm sure we will, Pie is still a new software so it's all just a matter of work and time.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] Jokert129:
i have no google photos, most things i have are all in internal memory, and some apps work with google sync, and some dont. But it will take a much longer time regardless, even if i transfer it all, with root its much easier, just one click titanium backup, one click titanium restore and everything is like you left.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] ShadowPanzer:
So I managed to get a Verizon G7 Power for pretty cheap recently. However, it's not eligible to be unlocked and used on different networks right now. If I rooted it and flashed a different stock ROM, would that allow me to unlock the device? Otherwise I'll just resell it and buy an unlocked one.

Max SD card size?

Anyone know the max capacity for the microSD cards for the XT1955-5 (Moto G7 Power US-Unlocked) ?

Motorola has the official max listed size as 512GB : https://motorola-global-en-roe.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/136724/~/using-an-sd-card---moto-g7-power

Seems like I've read unofficial conflicting reports on the web of users getting up to 1TB microSD cards to work on the device.

Anyone know if the cases fit universally for all the g7 power variants?
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] Omar04:
No Thats not possible. I which it were that simple. There no way to unlock it other than the Carrier providing the code or buying the code to an online service. Or you can try Motorola Customer Service via live chat, I have successfully unlocked several Moto devices in the past that way. Motorola is very ways to get the code from them.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] sd_shadow:
The max capacity is a myth.

Motorola a other OEMs only list a max as a legal precaution, incase the technology changes.

They are only willing to state the capacity for cards they have tested.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] sd_shadow:
Did you try to unlock it, or just refer to the official list?
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] ShadowPanzer:
I tried via Verizon's "support". They informed me it's still carrier locked as a prepaid device for 1 year of service. Essentially, I would have to activate it and use Verizon service for 1 year before it's eligible to be used for other service. Ended up buying an actual unlocked version, but I'm all ears if you have a way to unlock it. Would definitely help me with reselling the phone!

Formatting sd card

What's everyone's preferred way to format their sd card? As integrates or removable?
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] sd_shadow:
If you plan on swapping card out to use in another device to transfer files, leave as removable.

Otherwise format as internal storage, so it can be easier for apps to use.

About a month ago, I dropped my phone on some gravel. Everything seemed to be fine, nothing was cracked. But the fingerprint scanner stopped working ("Fingerprints" won't even show up in settings). And the battery life is bad now (relatively), it'll barely make it through the day but it would last 2-3 days before. I'm not sure if these three events are related or not, but I have no idea what to do. The fingerprint doesn't really bother me, I just want my battery life back.

No rogue apps stood out in the battery section of settings, and drain was still bad in safe mode. I factory reset my phone today (through Settings, not recovery or fastboot) but there's still no fingerprint setting and the battery is still bad. I haven't restored my apps, I haven't even logged in to Google.

Any ideas?? I contacted Moto today to get them to repair it, but they won't because I bought it on eBay instead of directly from them. I could try flashing the factory images but it sounds kinda like a hardware issue to me, so I don't know if it'd do much. I just don't know what would cause all of this.

Also I wasn't sure if I should open a new thread or just post here
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] sd_shadow:
I think it's unlikly that flashing firmware will help, but it's worth trying

It's possible that the fingerprint scanner is draining power.

There are other places that repair phones, part may not be easy to get, and repair maybe more than you are willing to pay.

There are some teardown videos

if you want to try repairing it your self.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] clavierkid:
Cool, thanks. If I just disconnect the fingerprint sensor that should fix the issue, right? Or will it keep looking for the sensor, draining the battery? I don't really know how hardware works haha
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] sd_shadow:
If the fingerprint scanner is the problem, disconecting it should stop power drain.

I have never rooted or done anything before. I want to remove everything Google from my g7 power. Do I just need to root it or some kind of custom rom? I am a complete noob when it comes to phone rooting thank you so much
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] sd_shadow:
Disabled isn't good enough, because that can be done with out root?
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] sd_shadow:
Rooting or custom rom both require.

Unlocked bootloader

Flashing a custom recovery (TWRP)

For root

Install magisk in TWRP

For custom rom

Install rom in TWRP

Hi all. I've just bought the device, so far is awesome specially battery backup. But I was wandering if moto g7 power had a/b partition because system storage takes 10gb of space and also there's an option to automatically update on boot. Have you noticed this?

Hi everyone, I haven't rooted a phone since I had my first Motorola Droid on Verizon back in 2008 or so, I switched to iPhone for a few years and then back to Android in 2012 or so but it had gotten more difficult by then to root phones and 8 never put in the effort, I just purchased a new g7 power on metro and I would like to root it if possible but have gotten so out of the loop on rooting phones I'm not sure if it possible on this phone. Is there any success on this phone on this network? I don't want to sound like a complete noob at this but I might require some layman's terms sometimes, Thanks!

Magisk is the new goto root method for modern android devices.

You will need to unlock the bootloader which requires adb/fastboot

Motorola unlock page

If you get a "your device can not be unlocked" type message, there is no rooting your model.

Hi everybody, is there any way to set the fingerprint sensor as nav bar, like it was for motor g5?
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] natalia86:
I don't think so, that's what te little navbar on Android P is for. What you can do is set the fingerprint sensor to show the notification bar, the one you see when you slide from the top of your screen. To do that go to: Settings>System>Gestures. It is the option "Swipe fingerprint for notification". Hope that helps! :)

I have a G7 Power International version that I bought before the US version came out. I use it on Consumer Cellular (AT&T network). I really like the phone, and the battery is awesome, of course. The one problem I have is that my cellular signal is weaker than on my old G4 Plus. I'm not a technophile, but I've seen a few things about bands on the international version. Could that be issue, or is it just the model. Is there any remedy? (I'm not rooted.) Thanks.

Just got my G7 Power, loving it so far. First thing I did was rooted it for some standard goodies.

How come development for this phone is lacking so much? No ROMs, mods, etc other than rooting the stock ROM. We don't even have a proper TWRP, how come?
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] djvantri1:
What have you done with the general root so far?
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] WaterMan!:
Greenify with root access to hibernate system apps. Titanium Backup to backup all my apps, and also deleted a huge amount of bloatware I don't use. Adaway for system-wide non-VPN adblock.

Tons of root functions with Tasker.

That's about it so far. I've been out of the scene for a bit, development for this phone is almost non-existent for some reason. Thinking about the next move.

Ive recently purchased 2 of these devices and so far I love it. I haven't rooted it yet or really done any mods. I have the metroPCS by T-Mobile version and it seems to be a solid phone. There is quite a bit of bloatware, but 3 gigs of RAM seems to be adequate to power through. I have downloaded YouTube vanced and am considering sideloading it to check it out this evening. But lately my network has seemed inconsistent.

It could be my VPN, I tunnel UDP and it may not agree with my service provider. Has anyone else had problems with metroPCS or T-Mobile and UDP tunnel? I may have picked up some malware that involves my Google account or settings. My laptop has been acting odd lately as well. That could be the installed version of java and the dependencies though. I'll search and read more about it later when I get home. My Google has been acting odd and I've stripped most of the permission to sync, it gets confusing with the new chrome sync features and new Gmail stuff. I've missed the last year (completely) in tech stuff and am recently getting back into it. I updated my G7 last night... If it doesn't get any better I may just hard reset it and see if that helps. Or backup the other phone I haven't yet turned on and try to put that in this one. I'm sure that wouldn't be as easy as it sounds though.

I kinda like the idea of becoming a test subject for this phone. I have 2 of them and to be honest I bet the developers here are ahead of the game as opposed to stock. Not that I'm looking for a way to be a leech, I don't think it's right to expect something for nothing. I would rather buy someone a beer who could teach me something rather than feeling like I'm stealing upgrades and making enemies with people smarter than I am. This leads me to a problem I do need help with. Due to my Google account concerns I seem to have broken one of the rules here at XDA before realizing it and I may need help resolving it. :( I think I have more than one account and I'm not sure what to do about it. I've been coming here for years and mostly lurk, learn, and read. Anyway, I really appreciate what this forum does for us and I want to at least TRY to hold up my end of the deal.
