The card works on another pda so is this really needed?

Will try to disassemble it during the weekend and will post the results soon =)

thanks for your help :D

EDIT: I've followed the Service Manual to disassemble the pda and I found that I can't access the memory card contacts. Does anyone know how to access them?

[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] diversenerd:
Hello, I've recently purchased an International G7 Power (XT1955-2) and I absolutely love it. For me it is the perfect phone, BUT:

I live in the USA, and the international model does NOT support a lot of the LTE bands found here. It works fine for me with an AT&T MVNO with proper APN settings manually entered, but not having common bands (12 and 17 specifically) is a little worrying should I ever travel out of my area. Being downgraded to 3G really isnt a dealbreaker for me, the biggest problem I forsee is that the International version also does NOT support 5Ghz Wifi. What? Again, not really a huge deal, and the other positives i find with the phone outweigh those two gripes.

Why not just get a US version you ask? Well, unfortunately the US version (XT1955-5 as far as i can tell) only has 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. (vs 4/64 for the international) and does not have NFC. The storage *is* expandable via SD card of course, but I feel like I would really miss that extra gig of ram. So heres what I was thinking:

Would it be possible to extract the radio firmware from a US model and flash it on the international model? I would be willing to purchase a US model specifically to grab the firmware (and then promptly return it, thanks Amazon!) Can anyone give me some insight on if this would be possible? They both run the same SoC, so shouldnt the radios also be identical, just software limited? If no one can give a solid answer, I might just take the plunge and learn how to do it and try it, and I'll most definitely post the results (or the file and process for others) here. Because as far as I'm concerned, the G7 Power is the perfect budget phone, its just such a shame that Motorola decided to cripple every single version of it with a different nonsensical limitation.

Thanks!
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] diversenerd:
Update: I managed to track down a few different stock firmware images for the US model (even here there are variants, depending on which carrier they were sold through). First I flashed the modem firmware, confirmed that that had been applied successfully, and it booted ok, and LTE/Wifi worked normally, but I still didnt get the LTE bands or 5ghz wifi I was looking for. Next I just went whole hog and flashed the entire -5 US firmware and can confirm, the XT1955-5 firmware WILL fully flash onto the XT1955-2 without any problem, and will NOT nerf your RAM/Storage down to US model levels. LTE/Wifi work just as they did with stock -2 firmware, unfortunately this didnt help the lack of US LTE bands or 5GHz wifi... so

Looking at the "Baseband" in fastboot and within Android, the modem firmware had indeed successfully changed to the version that is in the US firmware, yet following the correct US version numbers it still had the "LATAM....." (meaning Latin America I'm guessing, this model was meant for Mexico), so theres still something else that needs to be changed, I'm gonna do some research on other phones that may have had the same problems and software locks to get an idea on how this might be changed. As always, any insight is welcome.

If anyone wants/needs the US variant firmwares to play with, let me know and I'll get them to you, since they were nearly impossible to find. For now I've flashed back to the stock -2 firmware (I have that too if you need, although this was really easy to find online).
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] mtlvince:
I'm in the same situation as you, except i'm in Canada. According to this website below, there are 2 models of the xt1955-2. One being the 32 gig version for Latin America/Argentina and the other being the 64 gig model for Mexico. I don't know if the information is accurate but the 64 gig model of the xt1955-2 has LTE band 12 and 17. Lots of conflicting information. I don't what the correct specs are for this international version of the g7 power.

I can provide a link but being this is my first post, it won't allow me.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] diversenerd:
Got it in the PM, thanks. According to that article, my Mexican -2 should also not have dual SIM slots which it certainly does. I wish there was a way to tell on the device itself which bands it can pick up since there's, as you said, so much conflicting information regarding this phone. I can tell you with absolute certainty that it doesn't support 5ghz wifi though, also it took a call to my carrier to get them to enable the wifi hotspot (other phones I've tested got this provisioned automatically) and wifi calling doesn't even appear as an option either.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] gedster314:
I'll be following this thread. Keep us posted with what you come up with. Would love a dual sim with the band coverage of the US model. I have a 1955-2, works fine on Att with LTE. Tried a Verizon Sim, had LTE data but no calling.

You mentioned the firmware was hard to get. Are they different from the ones posted here?

[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] diversenerd:
Another update: running "./fastboot oem hw" gives us these values. We see that RAM and storage capacity are based on "hwprobe", meaning (im guessing) that it will actually look at what's physically installed in order to determine what it should use for a value, whereas radio and NFC are based on hwid, meaning (again, im guessing) that it compares the actual hardware ID to a list (somewhere) to determine what vaules it should use for radio and NFC, suggesting that the actual hardware we're after may be present, but just software disabled due to the hwid.

[IMG="fasboot oem hw"]https://imgur.com/dVCCnas.jpg[/IMG]

And of course, attempting to change that doesn't work since that option is locked/protected and unprotecting it is "not allowed command"

[IMG="utag"]https://imgur.com/5QuAeYm.jpg[/IMG]

At this stage, I'm assuming we'll need to wait for a custom kernel? I've tried unpacking boot.img, but theres nothing in ramdisk\oem or ramdisk\vendor to try and play around with.

Is it possible to flash metro software to the Amazon veriant
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] gedster314:
Should be able to. I have flashed the US retail firmware to the international version. I did have an issue with the US firmware on the international phone using the international modem. Worked fine except for people not hearing me on calls. So there could be an issue with mixing modems and firmwares. I flashed the US modem and it was fixed.

I also flashed the US Retail firmware onto a Metro phone in an attempt to unlock it, didn't unlockit. Phone worked fine though.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] diversenerd:
If you have the Amazon version that is subsidized by Amazon with ads, then no. Moto will not give you the bootloader unlock code for that because that would mean Amazon couldn't show you a bunch of annoying advertisements.

I have already unlocked bootloader and flashed metro firmware
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] AeonFlux1603:
Guys, this may be worth checking out. This is a confirmed method that was used to enable LTE Band 12 on the Moto E LTE xt1527 (Surnia), by using Qualcomm's QPST/QXDM radio diag utilities after booting the device into "BP Tools" mode from the AP Fastboot menu. The method delves off into some data entry using binary code. Theoretically, this method should work on any Motorola device with a Qualcomm Snapdragon SoC. The OP notes that having stock firmware installed does seem to be a requirement for tweaking LTE band enablement, but that once the desired bands are enabled, a custom ROM can ibe installed and the bands will remain intact & supported.

So anyway, here is a link to the tutorial thread, which contains links for the DIAG port drivers you will need, as well as links for the QPST & QXDM utilities. https://xdaforums.com/moto-e-2015/general/guide-enable-lte-bands-surnia-t3351673

In the case of the International variant of the Moto G7 Power (xt1955-2), it is feasible that any lack of LTE band support has littler to do with the baseband radio firmware itself than it does omissions/restrictions implemented by the OEM. This has been the status quo for Motrola on LTE band support for many years.

Motorola's official specs list the xt1755-2 as having LTE Bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 19, 20, 28, 38, 40 & 41. On the other hand, the US variants are docemented to have these LTE bands: LTE band 1(2100), 2(1900), 3(1800), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 12(700), 13(700), 14(700), 17(700), 20(800), 25(1900), 26(850), 29(700), 30(2300), 38(2600), 39(1900), 40(2300), 41(2500), 41(2500), 66(1700/2100), 71(600). Considering that both the International & US Moto G7 Power variants are powered by the same SoC platform (albeit some marked performance differences), it is more likely than not that certain LTE Bands on the International variants were simply disabled via factory protocol.

Anyone try mixing US radios around to see if they get better service? I've already enabled all the bands in the above thread but where I live there are service dropouts depending where you are in town. I've rooted and unlocked my bootloader already. I have metro and wondering if I could get ahold of a T-Mobile radio if it would work better.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] jlsatt4:
krayzueuyian23, I wanted to confirm.... you have successfully changed your 1955-2 international phone to permit bands 12 and 17? If so, which posts/steps did you follow? Are you using the phone in the US?

I have the international 1955-2 and want to activate 12 and 17 so that I can use the phone with AT&T / Cricket wireless.

Thank you!
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] krayzieiyian23:
I have the 1955-5. If you go to the forum main menu you will see a sticky post about enabling all bands possibly. I followed that threads instructions to do it. One hiccup though is that the qpst link doesn't work and you need to find a suitable version near that to download. I completed all bands on my phone, even though it doesn't help my signal. I am wondering if any of the different radios would help me.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] jlsatt4:
Have you tried an app utility such as LTE Discovery or Network Cell Info to see if the changes you made activated additional bands? I thought that the 1955-5 was already a US model, so, most US popular bands such as 12 and 17 should already be enabled.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] krayzieiyian23:
Yes I made sure that X bands were not on before I did what I did. There is an app on the thread that shows what is or isn't enabled. If you follow the directions on that post you will have all your bands enabled.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] jlsatt4:
I have been following THIS thread and there is a post from AeonFlux1603 about using a QPST tool to change some values. At that point, it applied to a different, older model phone. Was this this process you used?

Could I trouble you for a block/copy/paste link to the thread you worked from?

As to unlocking the bootloader after flash

[MENTION=3916023]diversenerd[/MENTION] . . . what tool did you use to flash . . . ??

I have a xt1955-6 which is the Verizon SIM and oem bootloader locked version and am about to do this . . . to get to an unlockable bootloader version and network SIM unlockable version

[MENTION=3916023]diversenerd[/MENTION] did you (or anyone else) check or try to unlock the bootloader through the moto dev site for a code after flashing the 1955-5 ?? Many of the other variants are bootloader unlockable - but I do not know right now

The XT1955-2: is for Tigo Canada, OPENMX Mexico, RETAR Argentina, TEFCL, WOWCL, ATTMX

The XT1955-5: is for Retail US, Retail Canada, Amazon, MetroPCS, T-Mobile, COMCAST, but as far as I have read - it can be unlocked to he bootloader through the moto dev site.

The XT1955-6 cannot be unlocked to the bootloader or the network by SIM unlock method

The APN settings on a rooted phone can be carefully tweaked to get bands to respond - see for example https://apn.gishan.net/en/apn/verizon/motorola-moto-g7-power

The issue is rooting the phone by unlocking the bootloader first and then build.prop editor can be carefully used since the phone itself is physically built the same except for the dual sim version mostly

So [MENTION=3916023]diversenerd[/MENTION] did you (or anyone else) check or try to unlock the bootloader through the moto dev site for a code after flashing the 1955-5 and what flash tool was or should be used ??

Can anyone post the output of a "mfastboot getvar all" or "fastboot getvar all" of a XT1955-5 phone ??
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] GarrettVW67:
You posted "The XT1955-6 cannot be unlocked to the bootloader or the network by SIM unlock method" but my XT1955-6 came carrier unlocked off of Ebay. The only problem is the bootloader is locked and I doubt there is a workaround for that lol. You saying that though made me question what was done to this phone. The OEM unlocking switch I can toggle back and forth but Motorola said it cannot be unlocked...obviously being Verizon. The seller posted ATT/Cricket/Verizon unlocked XT1955 so I assumed it would be rootable.

[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] roadkill42:
Bootloader can't b unlocked on Verizon phones I'm on the1955-5 from consumer celliuar which is running on T-Mobile net work. What u have is network unlocked phone is different from bootloader unlocked . You can trying to ask Verizon if they can unlock it for u worth a shot
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] GarrettVW67:
I did try. I mean I sweet talked and kept getting moved up the ladder over and over. I explained the phone was paid for and I needed the bootloader unlocked because I was an app developer. For a while I thought I was making progress, until the last top tech guy tried to tell me Motorola locks them, not Verizon. Which im sure is true, but at Verizon's request lol.

So I guess I'm gonna reorder the international version today? Hopefully any issues I run into with networks and 4g can be resolved. As long as the damn bootloader is unlocked lol.

My dad passed this week and I am trying to get into his phone for his email as he did everything by email. There are details we need regarding his solicitors and many issues. He has a Samsung J3 and it is on and has a standard pin lock which none of us can get through.

I have looked at guides online and they are all suggesting to factory reset which will not erase the data but that will log out his email. Is there any way of bypassing a screen lock without knowing his passwords or such. He is not the kind of person who would have had USB debugging running on his phone or set up fastboot / adb in the past. He was not that way inclined tech wise. I have found a couple of pieces of software but they want an incredible amount of money for a license and I am wary of how legitimate and successful they are.

Any help or pointers would be very well received right now.

[Huawei P30 Questions & Answers] el781:
Hi, Forum

I bought a brand new p30 from China and I live in USA. I am super happy with the phone overall. However, I found out that

1. I can't play pokemon go. I think it's due to it failed saftenet test api. I downloaded various saftenet test app, they all failed.

2. I can't download netflix. based on netflix's own troubleshoot guide, I found out that my play store is not play protect certified.

3. I can't use google pay. in the last step of the google pay setup, it complained my phone was maybe rooted, thus can not use google pay.

After some extensive research, I think it's due to the "china version" of the phone.

Anyway to remediate this? those 3 apps, specially pokemon go and netflix are 2 of my most used apps.

I am open to root or flash rom. but can't find any instructions regarding p30 yet.

thanks a lot!
