I have a mail2web account that automatically synchronizes my contacts, calendar and to do lists for me. I've even cooked it into my personal ROM... the proxy settings, I've partially cooked but haven't taken the time to fix the mistakes that I did... the camera... well, there isn't many settings for the camera that I change, so I haven't bothered to change them. Any UC compatible ROM can be configured with a properly setup provxml file.
[Wing, P4350 General] PURESKILLZZZ:
I use the Kiss method.

Keep

It

Simple

Stupid

Active sync does all the work I do nothing . It stores all my contact info , calendar dates , notes , favorites in Microsoft Outlook. I am no big user of it but its the easiest way to be sure to have all my contact information.

I can also save the info in various ways from outlook to export anywhere I want to . But with no computer knowledge all you have to do is make sure all the check boxes are checked for the information you want and its done with no work on your part mate. If you need screen shots let me know and ill even make some ....

pimback up works like a dream and its usually on alot of the cooked roms. you dont need a computer because you can save the file on your memory card. its very fast to do backups and restores.

[Wing, P4350 General] PURESKILLZZZ:
Tell you what .... Un-install activesync .... Re-install it .... Now connect phone .... STOP !!!!! READ every page from active sync that you see..... Write it all down ... YES !!!! Write it all down ... Now do you see where you can back it up at ???????
[Wing, P4350 General] Kelvino9:
Most of the settings are stored in the registry.

Once located you export every registry value and create a CAB out of it.

After every hardreset/flashing you can run it automatically by UC ready ROMs or manually.

That's my way of hassle free flashing and testing, always have my settings automatically loaded after hardresets or newly flashed ROMs

My personal "All-in-one.cab" includes settings for

camera

ringtone

email-tone

SMS-tone

German hardware keyboard layout

hardware keyboard lighting

deactivate keyboard sliding sounds

backlight

power

start menu

GPRS

mail2web ActiveSync

bigger threaded SMS input space

many 3rd-party software-settings (Opera, S2U2, TotalCommander, pBar...)

etc.

It's a PITA job, very very time consuming espcially hunting for the reg values,

but in the end you will enjoy it every time you flash or hardreset.

HardSPL, UC and a All-in-one CAB is the perfect combination for our hobby.

Well, you asked for the easiest...this is not:)

how do you install ur files through active-sync, when u only have a cab-file? or is this a nooby-noob question? ;)

Hi,

[General Questions and Answers] Bashbor:
My question is as follows:

Is there any way for me to restore my Google Chrome Bookmarks without rooting my Pixel 2 xl android device?

Additional info:

The reason I said "without rooting" is because my (Pixel 2 xl) is a Verizon Locked phone and inorder for me to be able to root it I first need to unlock the bootloader which I can't do, unless I factory reset the phone but then in doing so I will wipe out everything along with all the deleted data on my phone and and there will be nothing to restore.

Or is there a recyle bin for my bookmarks to go to in Google Chrome that I dont know about?:confused:

I don't know I just really need some help.

Thank you
[LG G8 Guides, News, & Discussion] wsimon98:
I've had the LG G8 for a few days now. Right out of the box apps (including even the settings menu) seemed to be locking up. I downloaded a small update right after a factory reset. It seemed to have fixed it for a while, but it's happening again. I try and open an app, and am met with a blank screen or the pre-loading icon/screen for the application.

This was happening with the stock launcher and using a custom launcher (lightning launcher). I do not have any cache cleaning applications other than the stock one that is in the settings menu.

Is anyone else having issues with applications freezing when you attempt to open them? Does anyone have a fix? Seems like it's an issue directly with the device, maybe something to do with the dalvik cache?

I should add that sometimes the apps never load fully and just crash.
[LG G8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Double0EK:
I've had the G8 for a couple days. I have yet to experience what you're describing. I ported most of my apps using an otg cable and LG Switch. Everything seems to still run like it did on my G5. Hope you get it sorted out.

My G5 wasn't rooted. And I don't think I'll be rooting this phone either.
[LG G8 Guides, News, & Discussion] wsimon98:
Yeah. I'm not sure what's going on. I went from the G6 to iPhone and very quickly back to Android. It's really frustrating considering that when apps work... They WORK. This is a great device, but I'd really like to know why it's doing this to me.
[LG G8 Guides, News, & Discussion] wsimon98:
For anyone who reads this thread...

I called LG. Apparently I'm the first to report this. I'm a Certified Windows Tech so I'm pretty techy. I've also did some Android development and of course dabbled with rooting. So I'm no dummy.

LG tried to tell me to factory reset. I've done that. So they "submit a ticket" to their engineering department.

This morning I had my wife install Blades and run it. It loads up fine. Runs great. She also hasn't had any problems like I've seen apparently.

So I went to my local Sprint. They had no G8s in stock. There's one left in the whole city. One of their sales guys is driving to go get it now. I'll write here again if I see the same troubles with the next G8S, but I'm betting I won't. It really seems to be something with the dalvik or RAM.
[LG G8 Guides, News, & Discussion] wsimon98:
Another hopefully helpful update:

The new device had the same issue! But... I removed my SD card after thinking about how many files were on it. Without the SD card, the G8 works wonderfully!

I'm now formatting the SD card. It's 128 GB and I'm not doing a quick format. Hopefully it's not something to do with the actual size of the card, and was actually the file system having trouble reading when so many large (and small) files were on it.
[LG G8 Guides, News, & Discussion] wsimon98:
It was simply a corrupt SD card. The card was locked read only and neither windows or android could format it. Stuck another fresh one in I had on hand in, everything works fine. So lesson learned. A corrupt SD card can cause apps to mess up. Didn't know that. /Shrug
[LG G8 Guides, News, & Discussion] vharper:
I had the same crashing issue. Mine was also the SD card. Must have happened when moving it from my Samsung to my LG. Everything worked perfectly fine in my old phone, but the card didn't fit quite right into the slot on the LG phone, and seemed I forced it in. Now, I get the crashes. I pulled it out and put it back in my old phone, and I can see everything on the card normally. However, now it is set in Read Only. I will buy a new SD card for my new phone and see if I can do a transfer of the data.

Huh? That's the Jeter ota to pie? Dude, nice. I poked around in the zip, it is indeed the OTA for the Sprint Moto g6 play, Jeter, to Android 9 pie.
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Starkiller2:
Yeah I was testing the final version. Snagged the ota. Already tested everything. Worked on locked and unlocked bootloader. Takes forever to install, so just wait. Root and decrypt still work exactly the same, with the same updated twrp. No issues.

[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] ASkUp:
hey man how do you go about flashing the ota for Jeter?
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] madbat99:
It's an OTA. So you need to flash clean stock firmware on your phone (the one that is on it now, hopefully January patch for Sprint, boost, Virgin, etc)

Have the update in the root of your internal storage and check for updates manually. In settings/system/system updates. It should find it and run it.

Stock system, recovery, encryption, everything.
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] madbat99:
People keep saying that one button nav is disabled on Moto. It's not. Just have to enable it in Moto app
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Sergeantslaughter:
So do I actually flash, or can I just factory reset and then update? I'm not rooted .
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] madbat99:
If you never rooted or anything, you can update.

I forgot 1 thing though, give storage permission to Motorola update service.

You don't have to factory reset.
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Sergeantslaughter:
Do I just move the .zip file to my internal storage? Like listed with all the other folders? It won't let me move to (/) before my storage. Might be because it's Sprint update and I'm on Verizon..

Mine is Jeter.
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] ninjakira:
Eh it's hard because the Aljeter is just the 32gb version of the Jeter and it also seems that other than Sprint and verizon every other carrier has the Aljeter device it would be less of a hassle if people with Aljeter devices would tell us the software channel version though like for example there's at least a dozen different xt1922-9 some for us and some for other countries so the software channel version would simplify things alot Lol. I'm slowly trying to at least get confirmed models of the Aljeter that works for my root guide so that way both Jeter and Aljeter people can have an all in one guide lol.

[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Swift2603:
My phone is a XT1922-3 Moto G6 Play Aljeter, retail version, no carrier branded/locked stuff.... So I don't get why you call it a different phone :confused:
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] PimpMy5Ton:
For those having issues updating with the OTA zip for JETER, you can do like I did and copy the OTA zip to the root of your external SD Card and rename it to update.zip, then go into your stock recovery and select "Install update from SD Card", it worked flawlessly on my Boost Mobile XT1922-7 Moto G6 Play variant :)
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Sands207:
I'm on JETER. Which is a DIFFERENT phone.
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] ninjakira:
Or if there also stock with no root just drop the ota into the root of of your SD card then go into settings, and apps and find Moto update services and allow it access to your SD card then go to update and it'll start the update

[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Mr_Vagina:
hello everyone,

I am here looking for some help.

Long story short : I understood i must install this OTA for some GSI, I actualy already have a GSI and I am not sure to understand everything I must do.

Long story long:

Since a few things don't work with the current GSI i have installed 2 month ago, I would like to change for something more stable. After a quick look at thread about GSI ( https://xdaforums.com/g6-play/development/roms-run-g6-play-gsi-t3904067 ) I understood that OTA is required for some of them.

First question: I don't know what is this update about, and don't really get the reason why I should install it.

After reading a bit this very thread I understood that I should be on stock to install this patch (full stock like bootloader and recovery or I don't know ).

Can I go back to stock from my current state and will it work ?

I currently have twrp and Lineage OS 15.1, an unofficial GSI, unlocked bootloader, magisk, and custom boot logo.

I have backup of the stockboot and stockrecovery I made before flashing. But I don't have stock android. If I understand well I can find it here https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/aljeter/official/ but I have no clue which one of those zip I should download and what should I flash.

I think my phone is a Altjeter XT1922-3 since it have 32 Go.

So, what do I do ?

flashing back the backup I made then the stock android

then install this patch

then flash twrp back and install any GSI ?

Thank you for your help.
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Starkiller2:
You don't have to install this, it's the pie update, you don't necessarily need it for gsi's but it does help some.

But it'll tell you in fastboot which version you have. You would need to go back to stock by flashing the entire firmware, which network are you on?
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Mr_Vagina:
Thank for your answer.

I bought the phone on amazon France, don't know if this is what you asked. It's not attached to a network.

Thank you again.
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Starkiller2:
I mean like what service do you use?
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Mr_Vagina:
Sorry I don't understand what do you mean by service. Service provider (like Verizon and stuff ?). It's called Orange but it's not linked to my phone, i had proximus before. (Belgian Service providers).
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] mkliao:
I have the stock boost but when trying to flash jeter via stock recovery it says sdcard not mounted? the file is renamed to update.zip placed in root folder of sdcard.
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Sands207:
You may need to retain the original zip filename for this to work. Double check motorola update has permission to use storage, then check for updates manually and it should find it and start the process.
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] mkliao:
I actually cannot find moto update app in my phone otherwise I would be able to use it within android rather than using the bootloader/recovery method.
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Starkiller2:
Internal SD card. Not external

It'll be in the data partition otherwise
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] madbat99:
To find Moto update service go in settings/apps and notification. Then tap "see all apps" and then "show system" to see system apps. Give it storage permission. Put the update zip in the root of your internal storage (not in any folder).

Then go back in your phone's settings and check for system updates normally.

Do not change the name of the zip
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] madbat99:
[MENTION=1948149]mkliao[/MENTION]

See screenshots
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] mkliao:
Thanks for the screenshots. I was able to enable storage access but when I go to Settings - System - System Update - Update Motorola software, it still cannot find the update after I placed the update.zip or Blur_Version.27.251.5.jeter_sprint.sprint.en.US.zip in the root of internal storage.

I also tried to sideload the file using adb and it seems to fail at checking the existing security patch level. Mine is at OCPS27.91-150-6/8 but the one posted is at OCPS27.91-150-4/5.

Is there a way around that?
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] madbat99:
I think the update is meant to go from January security patch Oreo to March patch Pie. It's PCP29.118-2
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] madbat99:
Ss
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Starkiller2:

You wanna explain or should I?
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] shawndak:
I believe I'm having the same issue as mkliao. My phone is on the newer update and doesn't want to take this pie OTA. On my Moto g6 I had to flash it through ADB fastboot and it worked. Is there another way to get pie on the most recent Oreo update?

Thanks!

How would I install this update I have the boostmobile version and I'm on stock but I'm rooted and have TWRP ?
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] madbat99:
You have to flash stock again. You must be stock unrooted.

---------- Post added at 04:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:59 PM ----------

Not currently. You'll have to wait for the full firmware, or the OTA for your build.
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] shawndak:
Can this phone be downgraded? I noticed there's a newer pie for US Cellular jeter. Phones look the same xt1922-7 vs xt1922-9. Earlier a guy said the sprint software worked on his US cellular phone. Do you think that update would work?

Thanks
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] madbat99:
It can be downgraded. Just not the bootloader or GPT.bin

And then the update may fail assert checks because of it.
[Moto G6 Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] shawndak:
Roger that. Looking at the US Cellular pie firmware it appears to be Retail in the info file. Is there anyway else to verify? otherwise i believe it would flash on our sprint/boost phones.
