great firmware

all perfectly

Only in the aroma there is an item not to install magisk

[MX Player] jayantadak:
The Mx player has been recently launched in India. I have installed the same on my phone as well as on my Smart Android TV. I can see the media contents like the Web series etc material on my phone and can play it too. But I cannot have access to the Mx content on my TV through the installed app. The dashboard of the Mx player is missing on my TV. It just says 'No folders found'. To make the matters worse, the contents also cannot be cast on the TV as well. No 'cast' logo is seen on the phone. Am I missing something ? I can play Amazon Prime, Netflix, Hotstar etc like a charm on the TV through the apps which are pre-installed or installed through Google play store. Please let me know how to have access for contents directly playable on TV through the installed app.

My MX PLayer has stopped supporting HW + decoding

Hello, until 2 days ago I was using MX Player without problems on a Sony smart TV with an ARM Cortex-A53 4-core MX Player to play GDrive streaming files in Kodi even if they were heavy thanks to the HW+ decoder. I got a message on the screen that I should update the Codec and it no longer supports HW+ decoding. I have tried to put a previous version of MX Player but it is not solved and I have updated Codec 1.21.0 and 1.10.50 and it has not been solved either.

If someone can help me I would be so thankful.

[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] Twotems:
Some renders of the Oneplus 7 are floating around the internet and OnePlus fans are having orgasms over the possible design having a pop-up camera and full-screen. However, the Oneplus won't have a headphone jack like ours. I'm laughing to myself since we already own one.

I have a simple theory as to why this awesome phone flew under the radar last year but is being copied more and more. When it came out people rushed to buy immediately and reviewers rushed to review it too. But it was the Chinese version and 95% of reviews online are for the Chinese version only. The early buyers (including here) and reviewers had all sorts of complaints because they didn't wait for the Global version to be released. The early reviewers also didn't go back and review the Global version either, therefore it was stuck with inaccurate reviews for potential buyers to see.

I've been following the announcement and release of various phones over the last few months and I honestly don't see anything that surpasses my NexS overall. In other words, I don't see any compelling reason to replace my NexS in the near future. It still easily holds it's own hardware and design wise so far in 2019.
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] DrG0nz0:
My toughts exactly....
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] CapraSebi:
Exactly this! That was the problem and almost all of the complains in the chinese version that people had in the reviews are non-existent in the global version...but vivo could have pushed to send them the global version to re-review...
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] paatha13:
Aggre most of the parts with observation above but the main issue with Vivo smartphone is that.

1.Lacking landing to western markets.

2.Lacking or not good enough marketing strategy.

3.No developers friendly(if not win the hard-core user base how will you win the majority of users who don't know even the existing of Vivo as OEM smartphone maker)

4.People in western world don't like that IOS hevelly inspired Fantouch OS skin just like any kind ios skin by others OEM even being under global rom umbrella.
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] maxichaio:
Yep, without a doubt one of the phones of the year. I really love my Nex S.
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] Twotems:
I agree with 1 & 2 but not 3 & 4.

The modding community is less than one-tenth of one percent in the mobile phone world.

I would say that if the phone is outstanding enough then the skin doesn't matter. The iPhone is a good example. It sells well despite mediocre software features and a locked down OS. Personally I changed my launcher immediately.
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] paatha13:
Personal talking don't have any issue with Fantouch skin as UI aspects.

Just 2-3 missing software features that's all who are indipended from Fantouch but has to do with stupid decision made by them.

But most of people in western countries does not like at all hevelly ios inspired android skin.

Even global rom is not enough they must adopt more stock android UI elements.

Look for example Oneplus within 5 years manage to gain respect and hugely adoption from western hemisphere by just following near stock Android UI.

They're fifth place among OEM for selling device within 5-6 biggest European countries.

In India they're third place.

Without any kind marketing strategy without any retailers partnership,without any advertising with exception last 1.5 year that corporate with Amazon for selling their device and most of all with the hugely support by hard core user base even being vastly minority BUT their contributions for oneplus rapidly growing is huge without any doubt.

Vivo has no luck at all in western hemisphere if they don't adopt near stock android UI despite you and me and others few that don't have issues with Fantouch.

We are minority.

I am not a huge fan of its blockly looks but the size looks good as does the screen. I am much more in like of its clock speed and ram (hope its all there for the most part :p) but I dumped Srint and wont go back to them for a long time after the crap they became.
[HTC Wings] bigflavor:
Out of curiosity, why did you drop Sprint? I think the coverage is really good around here, and a hell of a lot faster than Tmobile. The SERO looks really good.
[HTC Wings] 10332007:
I am not a fan of T-Mobile, but Sprint was in a CEO fireing / putting in a new one and for about a year had zero new phones release and no support for what they had. They kept tweeking their billing and website. Since I only do billing online there was a two month period where I couldnt log in to the website because it told me I must register, I had been registered for two years. Called for help and they said just pay the paper bill this month....I dont get a paper bill :confused: They said we'll get back to you and never did lol. Ended up spending 20 minutes in a store trying to pay my bill while the 10 year old employees had to figure out what to do, ended up having to call someone for help lol. I can understand stupid / new workers but someone in the store should know whats going on.

When I started with them I was very happy but then in the last two years they just dropped the ball on customer service, support and quality. The network itself I never had any real problems with. Most network issues I had were usually the handset they only sold for a few months and then never supported hehe.

Someday I could go back, however Verizon has it more together at the moment, and I am actually very pleased with the price and help / support I have gotten from AT&T. Ontop of the fact I like just buying whatever phone I want that works on the frequencies and not having to diddle about with the provider is nice. I love the REV-A speed possibilities but HSDPA has good speed which for me at the moment will be more than I need when they roll it out here. Coverage has not really concerned me in the last 3 - 4 years since almost everywhere has coverage of some sort.

[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] mingkee:
Notice: before doing it, make sure your phone bootloader is unlocked or it won't work

This will require you to find a matching full ROM. To find your matching channel, go to Settings > About Phone > Software channel

Lookup the first two letters and find the matching ROM there

https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/river/official/

If your phone channel is "US Retail", download RETUS (retail US)

After you have downloaded the full ROM (you should keep the full ROM in case you want to revert to stock unrooted), unzip and get boot.img. Copy the image to your phone and use Magisk to patch the image. After that, copy the output image to your host computer.

Now turn your phone off, press and hold power + volume down to enter bootloader, connect your phone to host computer, and enter

fastboot flash boot

Press space once and drag and drop the output image file to command window.

If everything goes well, restart the phone and confirm it is rooted with Magisk

Now you have rooted G7
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] dunderball:
Nice solution. Did not even need TWRP for this either.
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] 0.zer0:
Seems to be oversimplified. I'm sure this makes perfect sense to those that go through the root process often or at least recently.

Unfortunately I'm not one of those. Last device I rooted was about 5-6 years ago.

I'll be doing my homework on the new tools and procedures while waiting for a more detailed step-by-step guide.

Thank you for your efforts and at least I know that root is possible.

Question

What will my mirror be if Software Channel says Amazon?
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] mingkee:
I don't think Amazon version allows you to unlock the bootloader

Alternative method: look at the appendix of model on the box and find a matching one
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] timecutter:
I was able to unlock mine from amazon, it was XT1962-1 and said software variant amz and software channel amazon. For root I did have to flash with stock rom. The steps I took are listed in moto g7 questions thread. Look for amazon in the title.
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Itachisasuke:
I just picked up a G7 to play with today.

[MENTION=303482]mingkee[/MENTION] I'm assuming these are similar to the Pixel devices when an OTA is sent we can just reflash the Stock boot.img and then take the OTA and re-root using the same methodology above?
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] mingkee:
Yes, as long as using correct boot.img
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Marcondes BR:
I tried with G7 Play - Channel

Did not work. These errors occurred in the prints.
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] timecutter:
You should be good. The bad key error is normal. What happened on reboot?
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] mingkee:
Don't worry about the error.

Install Magisk Manager and required components and that's it.

Keep the original boot in case to get OTA, but you should get updated full ROM and get updated boot and patch and flash again
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Marcondes BR:
Rebooted normally. When it starts, the screen turns completely black, and bad key is written in the upper left corner. It restarted in the same way.

---------- Post added at 02:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:59 PM ----------

Can you explain this better? Did not quite understand.
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Omegapsy:
This method works flawlessly. Thanks for the tip.
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] mingkee:
Boot.img should match ROM version or you may have trouble booting.

New OTA has been released for US, but it's recommended to wait for updated full ROM in order to regain root.
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Marcondes BR:
Did not work.

My bootloader is unlocked.

The boot.img image is correct.

I did it step by step and it did not work.

I do not get root and magisk says that it is not installed.
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] mingkee:
Did you patch boot.img?
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nixin Victis:
my moto g7 non variant river phone channel said "US Retail", but the required rom info was under River/Official/Retail, not River/Official/Retus. When I tried Retus, it bootlooped until I flashed Retail. FYI for anyone encountering same issue.
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Marcondes BR:
Yeah. I copied the patch boot to my computer and flashed with adb.
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] disi_de:
My software channel is "reteu2" and the software version is PPW29.98-28.

Under river/official/RETEU/ I cannot find a suitable software version. Is my version not available there?
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] mingkee:
I have realized that

If you installed OTA, you should patch kernel with "-5" suffix which is found in RETAIL not RETUS.

Unfortunately, I have still to figure out how to build TWRP

After applied OTA, you should download full ROM matched with build number.

That's why some other model posters do not simply post the download link to avoid confusion.

You should look up Retail Channel or model number printed on the box, and check the ROM to match model number followed by build number.

This is how I find out the matching ROM, and it may not for faint of the heart.

I wish I could write a more comprehended one based on what I did.
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] DeQ_:
"<bootloader> invalid partition" error

I did everything step-by-step but I get the error "<bootloader> invalid partition" when I try to flash the patched boot.img.

My phones software channel is "reteu2"
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] maybeme2:
Thank you! Excellent!

A few clarifications for the non experts:

1. To unlock the bootloader

https://xdaforums.com/moto-g7/how-to/guide-unlock-g7-bootloader-t3906858

2. unlocking the bootloader will erase all your data, photos, etc. So backing all your data is essential.

3.

"If your phone channel is "US Retail", download RETUS (retail US)"

Download to phone or laptop?

4.

"Copy the image to your phone and use Magisk to patch the image."

Copy boot.IMG only? Does anything else go to the phone?

'How' do you use Magisk to patch the file?

5. Can the phone be unrooted if necessary?

How?

Thanks for helping!
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] mingkee:
3. You need host computer to flash, so you have to download to host computer anyway.

4. Use Magisk Manager "install" and patch boot.img, and send to host computer to flash.

5. Use RSDlite to revert, or simply flash original boot.img from stock ROM

[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] fix-this!:
has anyone else on the retus received an recent ota? im not able to take it while rooted and i do not see the firmware for it posted anywhere online.
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Omegapsy:
I have been getting the OTA nag since day one of owning the phone. I have been looking for the complete zip for the firmware but can't find it anywhere just yet. It is hard too since the build number that (I assume is changing) is not actually shown on the device firmware version. It cuts it off one section prior and I am unsure on how to figure out farther what build number is installed to the phone so that we can track update packages.
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jorgy11:
I've had my phone for 2 days and it has taken the OTA, wasn't watching close when the best buy guy accepted and ran it.

That probably explains why when I tried to root I got stuck in a boot loop.

But now I reflashed to the retus one so I probably reverted back. How do I check (I am really that dumb) if I have the recent OTA I'll share. If not I'll try to root again.

I currently have build number PP029.114-16. if that's the info needed.

Edit: now when I go look for an update it says my system is compromised and I can't receive them.
[Moto G7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Omegapsy:
Yeah, once you unlock the bootloader and root it trips the android OTA saftey checks. Magisk has a way around that, though I have YET to actually get it to work. Thinking of just doing a clean flash of the current ROM installed via RSD (Can you provide me instruction on how you got RSD to see the device since I can't seem to figure it out) and before installing any root apps after rooting with magisk attempting their OTA method and seeing if the device takes the update or not.
