Okay i just installed Descendant and in general works fine but the mobile data isn't not working for me. Is there a fix or something? I installed the AOSP too and nothing, just doesn't work
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Sands207:
How did you end up flashing it?
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
You have to edit the APNs.
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Alphita:
From TWRP flashed the dm verity disabler for first, then flashed the rom img and the zip for decrypt the device and done

---------- Post added 8th May 2019 at 12:35 AM ---------- Previous post was 7th May 2019 at 11:58 PM ----------

APNs are ok i think, the problem is that roms shows the 'No service' text, and it can't find networks by automatically or manually, maybe it's my SIM card?
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
What network do you use?
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] gvaldezsan:
So apparently Descendant got a bug and got removed, i'm really struggling to revive my phone, anyone has and old version?

I'd like to take a crack at a few of the oreo gsi roms, in theory they need to be for project treble arm, slot A right?
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Alphita:
Since i've switched from a Treble rom to Pie stock rom i couldn't install another Treble rom anymore, i tried installing different roms (arm a only of course) from twrp, and fastboot, with and without additional zips like dm verity disabler, kernel permissive mode enabler, etc and always everything i got is a just bootloop, i don't know what im doing wrong
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
Yes, they'll say arm-a only.

If you have a 1922-5, it's a description problem

There's progress here

https://xdaforums.com/g6-play/how-to/guide-t3929928/page7

And it should be fixed soon
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Alphita:
Edit: Updated some things due to recent problems with the Android Setup app.

You will need to install/flash magisk and gapps

Important: Once you flash gapps and boot, don't setup a WiFi network, and Skip everithing. Setup a WiFi network will stuck you in the Android Setup app. Just setup the WiFi network after finishing the Android Setup. You can use the no disturb mode until you reboot, for the annoying Play Services and Protect notifications

1. After install Magisk and Magisk Manager, Open it and go to "Downloads", search busybox, tap the download icon an select install, but don't reboot if it's asked when flash is finished

.

2. Now in the downloads search "MagiskHide props config" and select install

.

3. Once you flash both modules from magisk, reboot the device

.

4. Install a terminal emulator

.

5. Open the terminal emulator, type "props" and press enter, and then select "edit device fingerprint" (type "1" and press enter)

.Note: The phases could change in the future like numbers or letters to enter, be careful

6. Now select "Pick a certified fingerprint" (type "f" and press enter)

.

7. Select Motorola (type "10" and press enter)

.

8. And now select Moto G6 Play (type "10" and press enter)

.

9. Now pick the Android 9 fingerprint (type "2" and press enter)

.

10. Confirm the action (type "y" and press enter)

.

11. It will ask you to reboot but isn't needed yet, so enter "n"

.

12. Now go to the main menu (type and enter "e" and then type and enter again "props")

.

13. Go to device simulation (type "2" and press enter)

.

14. now enter "s" and then confirm with "y"

.

Well, after that just reboot and gapps should work normally now. If you can't put yout Google account, try reflashing gapps. If still not working you will need to perform a factory reset and try again the same steps.

i have the 1922-4, but could be the same problem
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
I meant decryption. Sorry. Is it 32gb?
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Alphita:
Yep, it is
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
Gotcha, I'm guessing you have official pie. Use the 16 gb version of the twrp in the link I posted before. It'll fix it. Spaceminer was working on it, but that twrp will work for now
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Alphita:
Flashed and boots perfect! I will try to flash some stuff tomorrow because i don't have my PC right now if something gone bad. Is there something to do before trying to flash?
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
No, it's something they changed in the stock recovery

and encryption when they updated it for pie, for whatever reason, the twrp won't work, but the other version will. It should work exactly as before. You shouldn't need to do anything differently. Thanks to [MENTION=7718083]Spaceminer[/MENTION] for figuring it out. It got real confusing
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Alphita:
Thanks you both then for the help. I will try to test it asap
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
Anytime. If you have any issues, just ask
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Spaceminer:
We had different sources for the Aljeter and Jeter, so previously we needed 2 different versions of twrp. Merged sources in Pie broke twrp for the 32GB models, but at the same time, it made twrp for the 16GB models work on it. Basically, they finally fixed the damn touch screen drivers. It took them 4 months from the time I first sent them a bug report. I can't take all the credit for figuring this out though. [MENTION=9758590]Kuntitled[/MENTION] was a huge help. It really was a dual effort.
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
Yeah I know who he is. Lol. I sat up that night with him trouble shooting and walking him through pulling files and logs and the fstab trying to figure it out. That kid has the patience of a saint. Didn't matter how tedious or seemingly stupid it was, he did it. Anyone else would've gotten irritated with being walked through flashing 101. it seemed like simple user error or changing a file system but he was persistent so I figured why not. I got no life. Lol.
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Spaceminer:
"That kid has the patience of a saint." - I couldn't agree more. It sure paid off too. He's reaping the fruits now, and so is everyone else sporting the 32GB model. I'm a stay at home Dad, and I have no life either! I get bored, so I hop on here and try to help people. I don't know why. I guess because I can, I feel like I should. I'm also blond too by the way.
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
Same here. I don't know anything though so it was slow going. Then we saw you responding, I'm like thank God. You're saved. That's who you want, I just work here. I didn't wanna just give up on him. Lol.

[MENTION=7718083]Spaceminer[/MENTION] and [MENTION=9129863]Starkiller2[/MENTION], You guys are saints. It really was a joint effort combined with a lot of patience and persistence.

As for Resurrection Remix, i flashed the 4/6 build and stock Gapps and all i had to do to get my device certified was the MagiskHideProps module. Huge huge thanks to [MENTION=9129863]Starkiller2[/MENTION] for helping me through flashing and getting the GSI to work. Now, it's not perfect (Resurrection Remix), but it sure as hell works just fine and dandy.

The only real issue so far is that i don't get a preferred apps popoup (the one you get if you have multiple apps to do the same thing. Example: I was trying to change a picture in the QuickSettings header and the "pick local image" option would only open an Icon pack app i had, completely ignorning the 2 file explorers i have on the device.

HUGE, HUGE thanks to [MENTION=7718083]Spaceminer[/MENTION] and [MENTION=9129863]Starkiller2[/MENTION] for being patient with me, a noob, and helping me through all the issues. Really makes me glad i'm part of this community.

Could it be that not flashing oem.img can cause a bootloop when flashing a gsi? I've noticed i haven't been flashing oem.img when i switched to the stock rom.

Btw i keep without my PC so i don't tried to flash any rom yet
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
I doubt it. I've run an e5 play with no oem partition at all. You won't have service but it should still start

The only bad thing is that I keep with this annoying problem of not having mobile data. I followed the indications as [MENTION=7718083]Spaceminer[/MENTION] told me in this thread https://xdaforums.com/project-trebl...reble-roms-t3910908/post79604332#post79604332 but unfortunately I was not lucky with that. When I decrypt the data, automatically the mobile networks stop working. Anyway I'll keep in AOSIP, works excellent and smoothly by the moment
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Alphita:
Also this appears when i try to do a call (im not in airplane mode at all)
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
Yeah did you downgrade firmware?

---------- Post added at 10:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:21 PM ----------

You need to reflash the oem.img that matches your firmware exactly
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Alphita:
I just moved from stock pie to a treble rom in pie.

Also i just tried reflashing oem.img but keeps the same.
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
If you go completely back to stock, do you have working data?
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Alphita:
Yes i do, until i decrypt data.
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
You switched to the 16 gb twrp?
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Alphita:
Yeah but i decrypted data flashing a zip. Should i try with format data?
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
Before you flash the zip you have to format data, reboot to recovery, then flash the zip

---------- Post added at 11:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:17 PM ----------

From start to finish,

Flash twrp, boot into twrp

Flash gsi

Factory reset (wipe)

Format data, type yes

Reboot to recovery

Flash disabler zip,

Flash magisk (optional)

Then whatever else you're flashing
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Alphita:
Okay i'll try that right now

---------- Post added at 11:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:19 PM ----------

I was about to do that but I could get the mobile network working in a different way. I don't know why this time worked, i tried this before and just got me in a bootloop.

Just reflashed vendor.img with the gsi installed, and then rebooted and the device starts to encrypt again, once it boots i got the mobile data working
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
Hey, whatever works. Glad you got it going
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Spaceminer:
Try this if you haven't already done so. After replacing the apn and setting permissions, select "access point names" then select the 3 dot menu in the corner, and hit reset to default. Then try setting the preferred Network to LTE, and also Global. That's all I do. If LTE isn't working and you have the correct apn file, it's a bug in the GSI.

To clear up some other things.

1. If you've already flashed the encryption disabler successfully, then you never need to flash it again before installing a GSI. The changes that it makes are located in /vendor and your boot.img. It disables encryption in /vendor, and disables dm-verity in the boot.img. If you don't change your boot.img or reflash the vendor.img, then you'll never need to flash it again.

2. You don't have to format using the "yes" option before flashing a GSI unless you're actually encrypted. Otherwise you can skip it. That kind of format will also wipe your internal storage. Just use the following.

A. Wipe > advanced wipe > select the system, data, cache, and dalvik boxes. This leaves your internal storage alone, and only wipes the data partition for apps. There's no need to lose the stuff you have stored there.

B. Flash GSI.

C. Profit.

3. You definitely don't need to flash the oem.img or vendor.img to fix anything on a GSI. It won't do you any good, and it will add back any bloatware you deleted from the stock OS. Well, most of it anyways. If something doesn't work, your best bet is taking a log and sending to the dev if you really love the GSI and want it fixed. Or running another GSI, which is what I saw you did.

4. When going back to stock, just wipe the same way you did before flashing a GSI and restore the backup. You don't need to restore the vendor, or oem backups. GSIs don't change them in any way. They just read the prop files and use the library files there, so the new OS can use your hardware properly.

This should hopefully save you some extra steps and trouble.
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
See? I shouldn't help lol. I misunderstood no data. My bad
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Alphita:
Thx, will keep this in mind the next time i flash something. Im absolutely noob on this so thanks for all and sorry if i overwhelmed you or [MENTION=9129863]Starkiller2[/MENTION] with so many questions lol
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
That's literally the point. To help each other. But I'm just bad at it lol
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Spaceminer:
No need to apologize for asking questions. I honestly welcome it. Worst case is, if I don't know something, I'll just tell you that. It's really not a big deal. I like to think about things like this;

There are things that you know, that you know.

There are things that you know, that you don't know.

And there are the things that you don't know, that you don't know.

Understanding the last 2 requires you to ask questions. And there's no shame in that. Never stop asking questions, and never stop learning! It's good for everyone in the end.

---------- Post added at 12:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:52 AM ----------

That's totally not your fault and it could happen to me too. That's Google's fault. Don't feel bad.

LTE = Data

Internal storage = Data

App data partition = Data

All of those are different, but they all get called data. I blame google. I also think you've been way more helpful than harmful. Don't beat yourself up!

Is someone else having System UI lags with Treble roms? Sometimes i try to open apps and just won't open, and the "System UI isn't responding" dialog shows up. I need to reboot to get System UI back working. I'm reporting it if this is a treble problem and not something i did wrong (as usual -_-)
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
It depends on the gsi but yes, absolutely happens. Or it did to me. . Is it persistent or does it go away after a few reboots? It may be that the app is incompatible or didn't install correctly. I also had it happen for no reason at all exactly 1:36 after I booted, every time. Weird
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Alphita:
It isn't very persistent, with a reboot should work again. I've been in RR and AOSIP and happened this in both of them so i recently switched to OmniRom and i don't have that problem, at least for now, but could be a problem from AOSP treble. Also the app icon disappears when i drag it. This happens often in all roms that i've installed before tho
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
Same here with the icon. And I've had the UI problem on multiple. Seems like it needs to adjust lol

So, my G6 play is now in a state of unusability. I q about it. What's causing the screen to keep dying? I'm pretty sure it's not software, as everything else, (fingerprint sensor, power button) works.
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
What do you mean dying?
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] :
By dying do you mean turning off? Like during the middle of Netflix or some ****? I had that happen yesterday. My battery was at 23% and again it happened at 67% or something like that.

If you want Gapps then follow Alphita's instructions here

After using it for a little while, I did notice a few minor bugs. Mainly that trying to edit the Quick Settings tile positions makes System UI crash, and the search bar in Settings doesn't work.

Yeah I agree haha
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Sands207:
One last question, should i wipe data and flash any patches if coming from stock?
[Moto G6 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Starkiller2:
Factory reset should be all you need. Twrp doesn't get replaced and neither does magisk since it doesn't mess with vendor. You may need something for Google play certification. If gapps aren't baked in. You can use safety patch or hide props config. Both through magisk
