[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] flash713:
Appreciate your work here [MENTION=4267571]sd_shadow[/MENTION] and adding all the things in the op! I love some organization! ? I received my replacement G7 Power yesterday and it's same exact model as my previous, metro pcs.. But having a hella hard time for some reason being able to tell in Termux app, whether the Motorola site to unlock bootloader code is a "zero" like the number 0 or a capital letter O. I swear on their site I cannot tell a bit of difference. It kept saying it can't be unlocked but pretty sure I put code in wrong with the whole O /0 deal. My computer died on the 9th so I'm using adb and fastboot on another phone and an otg cable to unlock the bootloader and root my Ocean device. Going back at it again in a few.. The only reason I bought this phone is because I'm pretty sure it's the only device that my carrier sells that can be modified. All others are locked down. (Bootloader locked) I remember a time when that was almost unheard of and you could pretty much modify any device. The Galaxy S2 days and Nexus S 4G. Ha! Times sure have changed! Anyway I'll report back on this post when I get this thing unlocked and rooted. Good day to all.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] sd_shadow:
I had no letter O only number 0 in unlock code.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] TheFixItMan:
What I would do if you can on that app is copy the unlock code and paste it into a text document.

Then remove all the spaces so the code is now on one long single line

Then copy the code from the text document into the Moto unlock website box

This way you can't get confused between 0 O l L I i and so on
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] PERKELE420:
Hi everyone,

I bought this phone for my dad for £160 and he LOVES IT for the battery life it lasts 5days lol.

However, he now has really bad signal issues.

He was using my old Samsung Galaxy S5 before this and the calls connected perfectly every time with no problems.

He is in a bad signal area for virgin though.

From looking online it says that this is a common issue with virgin and its to do with virgin not pushing a sim update to his phone that will fix it and I think its because virgin dont sell the G7 power.

Anyone know how to fix it? I tried dropping his phone to just 3g and just 2g but the problem persists that didnt fix it.

Gonna see him tomorrow and call virgin but i suspect ill get through to a foreign call centre and they will just want to send me a new sim (even tho i know its not a faulty sim because it works fine in the s5).

So, any ideas for how to fix this without moving networks onto a network that actually sells the phone? My reasoning is that if i move him to a network that sells the phone then an update will be available straight away.

anyone knows a way to delete the "myMetro" app? TIA.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] vinoxflame:
I think if you're rooted you can, if not you can disable it using adb command
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] edwardxi:
I have already rooted, but couldn't find where to delete the apk file...
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] vinoxflame:
have you tried using apps that can uninstall system apps from the playstore?
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] edwardxi:
Tried Titanium, no luck...
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] TheFixItMan:
I don't have this device or app but it looks like the package name is

com.nuance.nmc.sihome.metropcs

It will be in system/app or system/priv-app

To uninstall you can either delete this app with a file browser that has root permissions and has mounted this folder as rw or use adb (which maybe easier)

Enable usb debugging on your phone via the developer options in settings (if you can't see developer options goto about phone and keep tapping build number until it says you're a developer)

Connect your phone to pc

Open cmd as admin and browse to where you have adb (see link below)

Try and run the following command

adb shell pm uninstall com.nuance.nmc.sihome.metropcs

If you get an internal error try

adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.nuance.nmc.sihome.metropcs

You may get a prompt on your phone to allow connection

ADB/Fastboot files

https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] edwardxi:
Hi TheFixItMan, thank you for your effort.

Unfortunately, it's not that simple. Neither system/app nor system/priv-app has the metropcs apk.

Actually, I can find the apk at /oem/priv-app. However, after deleting the apk in that folder, it didn't actually delete the app, the app was still functional and the apk file will appear again in that folder after a reboot.

update:

tried ade shell as well

ocean:/ $ pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.nuance.nmc.sihome.metropcs
Failure: package is non-disable
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] vinoxflame:
how about pm disable-user --user 0 package name
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] TheFixItMan:
Did you run that command as root in adb?

adb shell then the command - you need adb debugging enabled on your phone

So you type this in full in cmd (you don't need the -k in the command you typed as I'm assuming you don't want to keep user settings etc for the app)

adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.nuance.nmc.sihome.metropcs

It shouldn't matter where its located as its using the package name to uninstall not the location

You can also try using this app

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jumobile.manager.systemapp

When looking through the list it may be displayed as it's app name (metropc) or package name (com.nuance.nmc.sihome.metropcs) so look for both
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] edwardxi:
Thanks, TheFixItMan, I am running a ubuntu, so I can enter shell first and don't need to type "adb shell" every time.

Actually, [MENTION=5974379]vinoxflame[/MENTION] 's method worked!!! Now, it's gone!

Thank you both!

[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] TheFixItMan:
Enter your unlock code on the Motorola unlock site and it will tell you

https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a

Usually if you can enable oem unlock in dev options in settings you can
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] nofroyo:
I can tap enable oem unlock in the dev options but when i go to the site it says its not eligible which is strange.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] TheFixItMan:
Cricket may have made your device ineligible if you are under contract with them (the phone is branded & part of the contract) - I would advise to contact them as unlocking the phone officially may allow you to unlock the bootloader

If you wish to unlock the bootloader of phones it's always best to buy a sim free unlocked phone

How can I create or modify a ROM for this device? or How can I modify the "Payload.bin" file of LineageOs? I use almost all Google Apps, and LineageOs comes with preinstalled Apps that I don't like and uninstall them by ADB every time I reinstall the ROM is annoying, and I need a way to modify that file since it is the one containing the preinstalled Apps
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] TheFixItMan:
To edit the payload.bin file you can use python and tool called payload dumper

Here is a guide on it's use

https://thedroidarena.com/extract-payload-bin-android-update-file/

However it would be much easier just to write an updater script that you can flash in twrp that will remove any apks you don't want

So after flashing the rom zip you flash your zip to remove or replace apps

Or you can put all the adb commands you use in a bash script so you just run the bash script and it will run all the adb commands one after the other so you don't have to manually type them each time

XT1955-2 Allow tethering and OTA

Hi. I have a new Xt1955-2, dual sim Latin America variant. I am in the US, using Cricket. I would like to enable tethering. I had that working with my previous phone, a Moto G4, that I used TWRP to mount system and edit build.prop to add net.tethering.noprovisioning=true. However, with my G4, attempting to use TWRP to restore my original system (which I saved with TWRP before doing anything) did not make OTA work - it complained that system had been mounted read/write several times. So I was stuck on Marshmallow. What is the least intrusive way to enable tethering and allow updates (or the process to manually apply them)? I have a work application that I am afraid will complain if it detects I have rooted - so I would like to do this without rooting if possible. Sorry for the long question. Thanks for the help.

I have a new, non-rooted Moto G7, reteu in the Netherlands.

Last security patch absolutely refused to update, I resetted the phone and it updated. Now that I have everything set up again it refuses the NEXT update!

LMSA is hot garbage because it just says my device is not supported. Installing in Safe Mode doesn't work. Without an SD card also doesn't make it work.

I am just..... amazed at how insanely bad this is. It's the XT 1955-04 version by the way.

Don't downgrade firmware if bootloader is locked.

Flashing the same or newer is fine.

Use firmware for the same software channel as what's on the phone. Retus, Reteu ....

There's a few different ways to flash the firmware.

Hello, i have tried to update to the latest crdroid "april 23" zip and it has made my phone unbootable. After i have finished flashing rom and recovery flasher, i have not been able to decrypt my phone after the reboot to recovery to try and install gapps and magisk. I've also tried to boot to the rom and it has only showed a black screen, and after that it reboot to recovery. The decryption message has appeared again when i did that and after i decrypted and flashed the other stuff i have not been successful to boot to the rom. I have then once again tried wiping and flashing rom and recovery and reboot to recovery again, and again the decryption promt did not appear. After that i've tried booting to system once again and it appeared and after flasshing the stuff again it still has not booted. I've tried downgrading to the previous version when i wiped instead of the newest one and reboot to recovery again and then it didnt show the prompt. I tried rebooting to system again to get the prompt to decrypt but now it doesn't appear even then. I've also tried using the command "twrp decrypt (my pin)" and it gave me an error. I am now in school and cannot do anything untill i get home but even then my computer monitor has been hit and now doesnt function so i cant even do anything via ADB. I have another computer and monitor and im thinking about using it instead. Can i get a step by step on how i can get my phone to boot once again?
