[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] Android Adam:
sorry if these are noob questions, however GSI's and custom roms confuse me, and I really don't want to brick my phone on accident

Preface:

I have a rooted moto g6 with an unlocked bootloader that supports project treble. as per getprop ro.treble.enabled running pie 29.55-24 Software channel Retail US

1. Can I flash a GSI on my phone

2. Where is there a good guide on how to flash a gsi

3. Will it factory reset my phone

4, Is there anything I should do beforehand

5. Are there any GSI's I can't flash

(What I think is 1:yes 2:If i knew i wouldn't be here 3:yes 4:backup system images 5: Yes

Thanks
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] madbat99:
There are different types of treble devices you know. Only a couple GSI work on the g6.

GSI is a system image, so usually flash with fastboot.

Fastboot flash system system.img

Or in TWRP with the "install image" option.

The G6 does not have a b partition. So only try ones that say "arm A only". Meaning arm, not arm 64, and a - only, not a/b.

There is an entire section of this site devoted to it. Search "Project Treble". Without the quotes obviously

Here you go

https://xdaforums.com/project-treble

Better yet here ya go

Built for the g6.

All GSIs are generic system images, so technically they can Flash on any device that has treble (with the correct CPU architecture and partitioning scheme) but when one gets built for your device most of the bugs have been worked out

Thank you so much. I installed Lineage OS from https://xdaforums.com/project-trebl...i-lineageos-16-0-gsi-arm64-ab-how-to-t3908029 and my phone is working HOWEVER I can't read battery usage from setting but /data/system/batterystats.bin exists
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] madbat99:
I would try the one I linked to. It is the most likely to have everything working. Descendant two dot two

The one you're trying to use says it's extremely specific to his device. Majorly buggy for others. Including A only devices.

Sorry I need help installing the ROM GSi RR I get an error in the text of insufficient space and I get error 70 to someone else happens? And I tried to fix the problem and when I managed to install the gapps the phone did not start someone can help me?
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] Android Adam:
Please link to the rom so I can try to help. describe what you're trying to do
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] ACM1PT:
Could you give me a guide on how to install with gapps? Sorry I have to write in English everything I did my language is Spanish sorry
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] Android Adam:
I need to know which rom you are using. Please post a link to it. Is this it https://www.google.com/amp/s/xdafor...urrection-remix-v7-0-arm64-32-b-t3891636/amp/
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] Android Adam:
Are you using Oreo or pie
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] ACM1PT:
pie bro,

I will try to install again have it happen
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] Android Adam:
I found the problem. The system partition is too small so GApps always fails. To solve it go to twrp adb push your rom, and flash it. Then go to format then system hit repair then resize and confirm. Of you are flashing a big GApps (Super) do it again. Flash GApps then Magisk (for root) then you're done

[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Caldair:
My wife's Z3 Play (unlocked 32gb, from Moto) on the retca software channel just received the official OTA Pie update with Feb security patch; Which is great!

... And I'm not at all jealous that my Z3 Play (unlocked 64gb, from B&H) on retus software channel is still not getting the update... Nope, not at all. :p

The worst part is she could not care less, but I've been actively checking for updates like 4 times a day for weeks. :eek:
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] FoxyLove33:
My Z3 Play on retca received the Android Pie update on April 5th. :)
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Jcanner:
I hear ya. This is total BS and Motorola is responsible for not only being lazy with updates but also security.

J
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] jonshipman:
TBF, I'd rather it be fully vetted as a botched update is often less secure than the exploit it's trying to fix.

That said, it would almost seem like Moto US is checking the update IN ADDITION to the RETCA people. I'd imagine, Moto needs to restructure their update channel to where Moto US just needs to approve the Moto US exclusive apps.
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] xSpartacusx:
well the RETUS is in the MFN testing phase so..

also guys please note, that android pie on this phone does not ship with the stock gesture controls that a lot of people like. its only available on motorolas Android One phones.
[Moto Z3 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] FoxyLove33:
My phone received an another update : PPWS29.131-27-1-2 but the security patch is still February 1st

Is that a second revision of the Pie update?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Dodgy_Bob:
Hi folks,

I've got my old Telstra HTC One XL (Evita) laying around that I need to re-commission back into service! Info is below.

I've been trying to S-OFF and SuperCID but all links seem to be dead and/or taking me round in circles from one site to another to another back to here, kind of thing.

The device currently has...

its bootloader unlocked

TWRP 3.0.2 custom recovery installed; and

root

Presently it is running CyanogenMod 12.1 (Android 5.1.1) which has,

Kernel version 3.4.105-ga346a29; and is

Build number cm_evita-userdebug 5.1.1 LMY48B 37126a8090

I was hoping to go to Marshmallow or even Nougat, but will look into that a bit further.

Main question I'm asking at the moment though is: do I need to spend any more time trying to get this device S-OFF and SuperCID? Is it even possible to get this device S-OFF and SuperCID? I did see one post that talked about downgrading, but again that was another thread with dead links and circling websites. Will going S-OFF and SuperCID now net me any further benefits over what I already have?

I know the device is old and I know most anyone and everyone has moved on now, but no harm in asking!

Thanking you.

Kind regards,

Dodgy Bob

[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] Mahmoud94younis:
Hey devs...

With stock nougat and oreo. I'm facing a gyroscope issue in pubg mobile

And the gyroscope is working with custom roms like lineage 16

There no fix to this problem in stock roms. Nougat or oreo

Pleaaaaase help
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] TheFixItMan:
It's a known issue because the Moto G5 doesn't have a compass and I believe the game requires a compass and gyroscope

If you Google it you will find loads of reddit and YouTube posts about it
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] Mahmoud94younis:
There is no way to edit the stock oreo to make it enable gyroscope like what happen with custom roms?
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] TheFixItMan:
Without knowing what changes were made then no

Probably different libs and framework so it would be a nightmare to even think about trying to get it working on stock
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] Mahmoud94younis:
a ok . the only fix is a custom rom . anyway thank you ☺

hello everybody and sorry in advance if i write in the wrong theme.

i'd like to know is there any way to make my old Galaxy s4 mini 'look' for third part apps like Galaxy S10? i mean, i want to 'change' my phone model number with some soft.

i have my phone rooted, also with xposed installed.

I was trying to play with build.prop settings but changing ro.product.model hasn't helped.

I would appreciate any help. Thank you!

Has anyone run across this wakelock - SCREEN_FROZEN (see attachment)? It's keeping my phone awake ALL THE TIME and I haven't had any luck determining what is causing it. I am running OOS Beta 15. The attachment is a sample of the wakelock. If I check in the AM after being off all night, the phone will not have slept at all.

Any insight is appreciated.

Thanks!

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] bubbleking2:
I purchased the phone about a month ago, from the day I purchased it the camera did not operate correctly. I took my device to the store in an attempt to get it replaced with a new one. Unfortunately for me my camera just happened to work that day which was also the last day of the 30 day warranty. The guy pretty much said that he couldnt help me because my device worked, but then he gave me this number saying that if there is any further problems they will take care of it. So I call the ATT warranty department the next day (my camera broke again) and they said that they were sending me a REFURBISHED phone. I talked with them for 2 hours and they pretty much sait there is nothing they can do.

So I get this refurbished phone and right out of the box it looks of poor quality, I later find out that no matter what I do, the device will not charge. So I send in for another refurb which is of even worse condition and this one wont sync to my PC.

Do any of you guys have any ideas that could help I called the warranty department and coustomer care TWICE, asked to speak to both supervisors, threatened to change my entire family's service and they dont reply with anything except that the phone can not be replaced with a new phone. What do you think I should do?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] JstarLuvsTina:
dude that sucks!

ive never had a problem gettin a swap out.. and i bricked my first tilt..

u need to speak to managers and managers only, throw a fit make a scene in the store they'll work with u!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] bengalih:
Learn from your mistake so you don't repeat it in the future. If you have an issue with a phone within the 30 day period, make sure it's fully taken care of within that time frame. Unfortunately you took some clerk's word for what would happen instead of double checking yourself.

AT&T most likely isn't going to do anything more from you. They have pretty good customer service and retention, but it is within their rights to give you a refurbished phone.

I also find it hard to believe that they shipped you two refurbished phones that right out of the box appeared to be of "poor quality." If the phone's had a shoddy appearance they wouldn't have been sent back out.

If your next replacement (refurb) is not functional, then tell them that it is getting ridiculous that you have had 3 replacments and they were all bad (again, I find that dubious). If the phone's are malfunctioning to any extent that you can't make calls (like a phone won't recharge) then they should be crediting your account on a daily basis when you can't use the phone.

Lastly, you can threaten to go to your credit card issuer (assuming you bought it with one) or to the BBB. Again, these are mostly threats, and I don't suggest you follow through unless you are truly getting bad refurbs 3 times in a row. Don't just take a negative attitude and look for problems becuase it isn't a new phone...you aren't likely to get one.

However, you could realistically cancel your service, and then refuse to pay any cancellation fees because they weren't honoring their end of the deal by providing you with functioning equipment. Even though you might have a leg to stand on....it will still probably get sent to collections and mar your credit.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] bubbleking2:
Of the refurbs I got, these were in the condition I stated. When I called ATT they said something along the lines of 'every once in awhile a bad one slips through, but its pretty rare.'
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] bengalih:
I don't doubt a bad one slips through.... but two in a row....

What I am saying is third time is a charm...you can't keep getting bad ones :)

Also, I know how it can be mentally (as I would feel the same way) that a refurb just isn't as good and you would rather have a new one even if you saw a refurb pass every single test.

Try for #3 and if you are still out of luck...go with the other poster's suggestion and make a scene in the store :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] SH4YD33:
This reminds me of when i had the 8525 hermes. I was sent about 3 phones from them that were of bad quality. Bluetooth problems and yellowish tint screen.. The unwritten rule is that after 3 phones youre sopost to get a upgrade of the latest comperable model. Right now the tilt is the latest pocket pc but at the time, the tilt replaced the 8525 and thats how i recieved my tilt..

Moral is.... wait til the next ppc comes out and make a scene.. but also bring that point up to warranty replacement.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] VirgilWoods:
Happened to me last week, two bad ones, and a third one that was good. It's possible, and somewhat probable for a scenario like that to occur. It's not like saying he put a million dollars on "00" at the roulette table and won :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mtbjoe:
I'm on my fourth tilt in 6 months. The first one got fried by an ebay charger (I think) my daughter threw the next one and messed up the display (can't believe they haven't charged me for that one... yet) The third did't sync with my PC like one of yours and the forth one's been great. All of the replacments have been refirbs but have looked as good as new with the one being bad out of the box.

I agree with bengalih just get another one if it's bad you'll know right away if not it should be perfectly fine.

No BS this will work !!

I got a brand new custom built HP laptop ( to replace my custom built 2yr old laptop w/ 3yr accidental damage protection) because I followed the same advice I am going to give you. Similar situation with my laptop...sent it back twice, never fixed it right, 14 phone calls, over 450 minutes with customer support and such..won't bore ya with the details

Here's what I did...

Got all my phone records to them together

Had all the invoices etc together

Called and told them I had been "advised" that I had to give them one more chance to make it "right" ! Implying I had legal advise....Then I told them I was going to take them to small claims court..Period !

YES I was going to take them to court cause statistically they always settle!

If not I had my records and was in the right !!! Like you seem to be

Be stern, firm and assertive, not angry or yelling. I basically told them what will happen if they did not make it right...they folded like a cheap lawn chair and I got a brand new custom built $2000 laptop plus a full 3yr accidental damage warranty!

I still get a rush thinking about it !!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] bubbleking2:
I understand what you mean, but I am completely unprepared to take them to court over such a minor issue. Im going to expend all of my other options first, I still have to go back to the store and argue there that it is there fault because they did not support there 30-day return policy in the first place. The man let me walk out of the store with a broken phone. I should have handeled it then but I didnt realize I would be dialing in and getting more refurbs.

Also, my third refurb arrived today, the device functions completely as intended. The problem now is that the keyboard on this new device does not seem very responsive, or at least, not nearly as responsive as the keyboard on my first device (which I still have). I am upset with this as my other Tilt is in premium condition, not a single scratch. I think I am going to return this one as well.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] marab:
not good

hey I work for the company and

1. they kinda HAVE to exchange your phone in store if you got it over the phone, over att.com or at a corporate store. if you are within 30 days the rep should do the exchange, the rep u got was an A*&*LE. some act like the store stock and shipping cost come from their pocket.

2. if you get an idiot customer svc rep just hangup and call back , sometime u have to bend the truth. say u have a phone that drops calls ( they are afraid of this) and u tried ur friend's SIM card and still does not work correctly.

3. sorry you did not come to my store.(NY)

4. almost impossible to get a new phone through warranty or insurance.

5. if ya'll have any Q's bout stuff PM me.

out...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] BBM-Lee:
This is exactly why sometimes the "best deal" is not a good deal...

I only buy my phones from the bigger retailers, Best Buy & the company directly....

Mom & Pop shops, and online retailers:

- Cheaper up front, can usually get you the best deal if you read the fine print and agree

- Usually require a 2nd contract stating you will not change you plan (or features) within 6 months to 1 year or they charge you a penalty (usually $200 for removing OR changing the kind of data service from a phone like the tilt-- ex.: change from Unlimited data $30/month to Unlimited data & Text for $50/month, you broke the contract, they will charge you $200)

- Do not have to accept returns. Returns are done by companies as a 'favor' -- they are not required by US law (for most stores/products, some exceptions)

Big retailers or the Service Provider directly:

- Always have a return policy

- Almost never require a 2nd contract agreeing to keep features

- Usually $25 more for basic phones, up to $100 more for smartphones (they do not require Data, which most M&P/Internet sites give you $75-$100 off for getting and keeping for 6 months)

Other nice advantage of Big Retailers: If customer service at one place gives you no help and you're within reason to return it... go a few miles to another location and try again.... (again, if you're trying to return something 45 days later, you'll probably get no help where ever you go)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] bubbleking2:
This wasnt a 'Mom and Pop' Shop, it was an official retailer. I was going to get the phone at a smaller AT&T but they said I would have to go to an official store that carried there high-end products. When I bought the phone the person I bought it from, I believe I have his buisiness card, but I will check later, allowed me to open the box in the store. He then told me if I wasn't satisfied I had 30 days for a return or replacement. I came back, 29 days later and they said that I had to call there warranty department because the device was not broken, and there fore he could not replace it. Essentially, they lied to me.
