[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] IronTechmonkey:
I'm sooooooo totally not surprised to see another Moto device FAQ from [MENTION=4267571]sd_shadow[/MENTION]. Thank you.

On a recently purchased Moto G7 Power (Ocean), in a clean flash of the very new LOS17 Ocean ROM, there are at times weird screen artifacts or effects and am trying to determine if this is a hardware or a software issue as there symptoms which could be perceived as either.

---------------

Note: In the attached images and linked video the visual artifacts are most visible in the bright areas of certain colors but occur across the whole screen.

G7PowerColorIssueBad1.jpg:

Display is in bad color state upon turning on display after it had been off for a while. In addition to many things wrong with this picture; note the purple color of the typically green Magisk icon.

G7PowerColorIssueBad2.jpg:

Same bad color state with colors having been shifted by turning display off and on again. Swiping the notification shade (and other screen interactions) cause also the colors to band or cluster (depending on nature of wall paper) and move around creating the "psychedelic effect".

G7PowerColorIssueNormal.jpg

Changing; Settings > Display > Advanced > Colors, from Natural to Saturated resets to proper colors until next incident.

Video shows effect of swiping up and down screen.

Any advise would be appreciated.

[EDIT] This turns out to be a problem in the ROM which the developers know about.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] rover95disco:
Any way to switch to Moto apps for email, photos, ect instead of Google Apps
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] IronTechmonkey:
As to the device itself, I've been through three previous generations of Moto Gs and a few other devices which were of higher or lower specs for their generation, and am running LOS17 rooted with Magisk. I had been eyeing the G7 power online waiting for it to hit LOS when I found the unofficial official (not a typo) dev thread and then immediately purchased one. In general I'm happy with the device and the ROM.

The large battery is awesome on its own, and in turn removes Motorola's excuse to exclude certain pieces of hardware. Consequently the device has a proper LED for notifications, a magnetometer for compass apps, and even seems to have NFC Hardware. Some of those things are not used in the stock ROM but are used in LOS17.

The device is large, in fact referred to as a phablet some places, and is tall enough that most people would have to shift it in their hand to tap the full extent of the display with thumb, but it's mostly battery and screen, and has a good hand to it with no stupid slippery & breakable glass back. In an OtterBox Commuter case it's like the monolith in the movie 2001 but those cases actually add a new dimension to being able to hold the phone by the edge of the case.

A relatively minor downside is that the notch containing speaker, front camera and proximity sensor is a bit big and IMO the way it works with the native Android status bar is poorly implemented by both Moto and Google. IMO there's not enough space for icons. This is probably why the newer G Power has the camera in a cut out hole with no notch interfering with the status bar. That being said the screen is tall enough that no space it's lost to the notch when playing widescreen video.

Also, the hole in the top edge opposite the headphone jack is not for the SIM/SD tray pin, it's a microphone.

So, as an LOS fan and power saving geek I'm totally biased, but quite happy with the device.

32-bit OS or 64-bit OS?

Hi, I'm semi-tech-literate and new here, trying to help my wife play her favorite app whose developers just pulled the rug out with an update that only works on 64-bit OS ROMs.

Is the OS of the G7 Power (4/64 GB) running 32-bit OS, or 64-bit? From what I've read about the G7 Play (32-bit), Motorola is notorious for putting 32-bit on their 64-bit hardware, and that won't work for us. But the G7 Power is in our price range. I can't find the answer in the forums, so someone please help. Thanks!
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] sd_shadow:

If you post app link to playstore I could check if it installs

Thank you very much! The link won't post, but it should be the first Google result for "animal crossing pocket camp play store".

Apparently Pokémon Go players were suffering the same issue earlier this year, and there's supposed to be a list of 64-bit OS phones out there somewhere too. I wish phone companies would be up front about it and include the OS and CPU bit in their long lists of specs visible to the average consumer.

I did a factory reset of my G7 Power, running Android 10 on Consumer cellular (AT&T). It went fine, and all my apps were restored, but settings and app data were not restored, even though they're backed up on Google Drive. Is there a way to restore those after a backup? The information I found via searches is that they should have been restore automatically, but that's not the case. Thanks.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] Tom2112:
I just picked up a cheap used Moto G7 Power (1955-5) to screw around with. I'd like to experiment with de-Googling a phone and see if it is usable for me. Also, I'm interested in messing with Android alternatives, like Ubuntu Touch and the others. Is this a decent phone for that or have I wasted my money?
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] 4republic:
Good day all. Looking for help on setup, here's where I'm at:

- G7 Power XT1955-2

- Managed to get root by following some instructions found online and now have TWRP twrp-installer-3.5.0_9-0-ocean , Magisk Magisk-v21-4 and MagiskManager-v8-0-7, and Disable_DM-Verity_ForceEncrypt_11.02.2020 on the device

- It is currently running as a rooted Android 9.0

- I'd like to install Lineage 18.1 next if that's possible?

- I would like to have access Google Play on this phone so I think that means I need Gapps too?

- Which version of Gapps do I use?

- I found this ROM lineage-18.1-20210107-UNOFFICIAL-ocean, which appears to be most current build? Not seeing one for 18.1 here https://wiki.lineageos.org/gapps.html

- I found this thread but it's just 7 pages of confusion for me, unfortunately https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-11-0-lineageos-18-1-ocn-unofficial-upd-2021-01-11.4207027/

- I **think** the instructions below are the ones I need to follow now, but wanted to check with you all to be sure so I don't end up with a brick!

Thoughts?

Motorola Moto G7 Power (ocean) - LineageOS ROMs

LineageOs ROM Motorola Moto G7 Power (ocean)

lineageosroms.com

Download the LineageOS installation package that you would like to install or buildthe package yourself.

Optionally, download additional application packages such as Google Apps (use the arm64 architecture).

If you are not in recovery, reboot into recovery:

With the device powered off, hold Volume Down + Power, then select “Recovery mode” using Volume keys.

Now tap Wipe.

Now tap Format Data and continue with the formatting process. This will remove encryption and delete all files stored in the internal storage.

Sideload the LineageOS .zip package:

On the device, select “Advanced”, “ADB Sideload”, then swipe to begin sideload.

On the host machine, sideload the package using: adb sideload filename.zip

(Optionally): If you want to install any additional add-ons, run adb reboot sideload, then adb sideload filename.zip those packages in sequence.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] sd_shadow:
Be sure to use the copy partitions zip from pre install steps or you can brick your device.

[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] HerrKomissar:
Could someone tell me what, as of this week, the status of SafetyNet, Magisk, and EdXposed is? I've spent hours searching DDG, Reddit, and the forums here, but I'm seeing most of it seems to be from 9 or more months ago, and there's lots of conflicting information from the period.

Is SafetyNet simply a lost cause once the bootloader's unlocked?

Is it a cat and mouse game where it will work until Google catches up with the latest update, then it stops until the next update?

Or have the clever buggers that they are managed to get around it?

I have a Moto G7 Power coming thanks to the non-VoLTE lockouts on AT&T and TMO, and I'm trying to get myself prepared for setting it up. Honestly, if I have to choose between them, I'll probably take XPrivacy over SafetyNet, but I'd really just love to know what's going on.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] sd_shadow:
Magisk use to reliably mask unlocked bootloader and root.

It doesn't look like it is working currently on my Ocean, but I don't use anything that stops working if Safetynet is broken.

[LineageOS Questions & Answers] pmckinley:
Hi All,

I want to install Lineage OS on a MT6580 device with 3.10.72 kernel. I have the stock rom available. I've found a suitable Lineage rom, and I know I just need to swap the boot.img and system.img (after conversion from system.new.dat) into SP Flash Tool, but I don't know how to create a new scatter file.

The scatter file from the stock rom doesn't work, I believe because the system.img and boot.img file sizes differ from the stock rom.

Can anyone give me a step by step guide how to create a new scatter file, or post a link to a tutorial. I can't find the procedure anywhere!

Thanks in advance.

Peter

[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] edx2000:
Hi, I'm new here... After browsing all over Internet and trying for many hours, hope I can get some help here.

So I was brave yesterday and wanted to root my pixel 3 to install some new themes. Unlocked bootloader, but I screwed up with Magisk / TWRP and the phone could not boot any more. At that point, I was still able to see the phone in adb. Then I tried to flash the stock rom using flash-all, but the process failed at one file (vendor_a?).

Unfortunately, I decided to reboot the phone - and now I'm stuck because the phone will be deadlocked showing the Google screen, and my PC cannot recognize the phone any more. adb shows no device, and device manager doesn't see any Android device. I have the latest developer tools and also installed the latest Google USB driver (at least I think), but now when I plug the phone in, I do hear the new device sound, but it is only recognized as a general USB device.

I can't even turn off the phone. Long pressing power will only go back to restart the phone and the first screen shows "this device is corrupted". Go on to the second screen will only give me an option to pause, with nothing else to choose from. I can't reboot into TWRP or recovery.

Any thoughts? Thanks a lot...
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] v12xke:
First off, if you did successfully unlock your bootloader there is a 99% chance you will be able to recover from this. In fastboot mode is the phone state shown as "unlocked" ? Do you have a second PC or laptop to install the standalone adb/fastboot binaries on? adb does not work in fastboot mode, only in stock recovery mode. First re-try fastboot flashing the full image while in fastboot mode without modifying the flash-all.bat (allow it to wipe). You may also want to check the CRC (checksum) on the image you downloaded to verify it is not corrupt. If unlocked and that install fails capture the error and report back. Then try using adb from the stock recovery. You Tube how to get into recovery and use update via adb with a (different) full OTA image. The full OTA images are also available on the same Google dev site as the factory image, and is sometimes called a rescue OTA. You're in the right place to get help, but you need to provide all relevant information (such as previously installing a custom rom).
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] cmh714:
try holding power and vol down until the phone reboots and comes back to the menu where you should hopefully get back to Android Recovery mode where you should be able to use adb and the OTA via a sideload......for some strange reason I always get screwed on the vendor partition when using the flash-all script....never have figured it out :)

GL!!
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] edx2000:
Thank you guys. I was able to make some progress but now I'm stuck somewhere else.

If I run flash-all, the error message I get is:

"Sending sparse 'vendor_a' 1/2 (262140 KB) FAILED (Error reading sparse file)

Finished. Total time: 108.152s

Press any key to exit..."

Alternatively, I tried sideload in recovery mode, and I get:

"E:footer is wrong

Update package verification took 0.2s

E:Signature verification failed

E:error:21

So it seems the zip I downloaded is corrupted? But I downloaded two different versions from Google Developers and both failed.

Any suggestions? I'm going to try it one more time with another computer.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
Have you also tried a 2.0 USB A to USB C cable, or a different set of cables period?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] cmh714:
do what I told you....I always fail at the vendor junk but can easily get the ota sideloaded....give it a try, forget flash-all

EDIT: just read the rest of your post...hmm....

well assuming you get the correct hash after downloading, it should work. after that its computer, port, drivers, sdk, and cable thats a potential issue.

again for me, I always fail on vendor. it happened on my pixel 2xl and still on the 3xl. I have tried multiple pc's, cables, etc and always fail at the vendor partition, but the ota sideload through android recovery always worked. YMMV
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] Homeboy76:
If vendor "always" fails on your PXL3 you may want to find out why. Could be a symptom of some problem with your phone.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] cmh714:
I doubt that....happened with my xl2 as well....tried multiple PC's, ports, cables, etc. nothing seems to work so I have been using the OTA as that has been bulletproof thus far
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] hilla_killa:
Make your you have latest fastboot and adb, a good non usbc to usb c cable, boot into fastboot, flash all, profit. If your bootloader is unlock your good.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] v12xke:
You should verify the crc checksums of the files you are using. There are many tools to do this and the signature is posted with each image. That, and like Badger says.. try a different cable (A to C). and try another PC. Google provides these image files to enable users who have unlocked their bootloader to completely restore the phone to it's factory state. I'm thinking the problem is with a corrupt image, a marginal cable, or the adb/fastboot setup on your PC/laptop. You don't need the complete Android SDK, only the standalone platform tools. The fact you have a working stock recovery and are bootloader unlocked means your likelihood of success is very high.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] edx2000:
Wow, using a USB A to C worked!!

Changing to another computer did nothing.

Thanks everybody!!

[General Questions and Answers] hupomee:
Hey there,

what are the possibilities to extract files from a Nokia Series 30+ ROM (like the new 3310 or 220)?

I desperately want a ringtone from my old 220 but haven't found a way to access the system files on the phone or open a downloaded ROM file.

Any help would be appreciated!
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
You should be able to find the ringtones that came with the Nokia 220 by doing a Google search for:

"Stock Nokia 220 ringtones"

Or

"Original Nokia 220 ringtones download"

Or

If you know the name of the specific ringtone, you can do a search for that specific ringtone.

You don't necessarily have to get it from the stock firmware or transfer it from another Nokia 220, it should be available through one of the various ringtone repository websites or from one of the various rigntone downloading apps.
[General Questions and Answers] hupomee:
Hey

thanks for your suggestions! I've already did an extensive google search (like you said, this would've been a much easier way). I can only find low-quality videos of people filming the ringtone out ot the poor phone speakers. Most mp3 results are the audio tracks of those videos.

That's why I'm looking for a way to find the actual source of the "Tumbler" ringtone (the version of the 220 or new 3310, as there are many older versions).

[General Questions and Answers] hupomee:
Thanks again for your effort but those mp3s are just extracted from youtube videos and thus the quality is low. Besides, there's not the tumbler ringtone from the series 30+

There are at least 5 different versions of that ringtone.

That's why I'm looking for a way to get it out of the ROM. This is a huge effort for a cheesy ringtone, but I can't help it :P
[General Questions and Answers] hupomee:
I know this might not be the most interesting device for developers but maybe somebody has a hint for a software that could read the ROM contents of Series 30+ phones?
