is it going to Official?
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] AlKrd:
Moto g5 plus XT1680, I have problems only with the camera, it closes after taking a photo or when it enters it only closes, even so only that problem I have had, in my opinion it is stable, and I think it is a candidate to be an official, or I hope so.

because when it starts it tells me which configuration stopped, install gapps amr64 pico and it keeps showing me that android configuration stopped.

No bugs! nice work

It was the only rom with android 10 that allowed me to install my favorite kernel, and to be able to use it with magisk without any bootloop. thank you. just a note, I use the model with 2GB of ram, if possible I would like to leave as a recommendation that the swap partition of the zram should be at least 2GB to give a relief in the use of memory. anyway, eighth job, using as my current Rom.

Could you link to the sources you use for building this ROM? I prefer building myself and miss an URL for device and kernel sources... :confused: Thanks a lot!

[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] time_nl:
I had been able to download the ROM several days ago. Did a successful install with pico Gapps and Magisk. Encryption is enabled and working properly.

Overall I am very happy with this ROM as I really like the feature set in Lineage OS. I hope your work will continue with this!

Unable to change launcher

I flashed gothicVI's build TEST-lineage-17.1-20200511-UNOFFICIAL-potter.zip and can't change the launcher to Standard-LOS "Trebuchet". "Sample leanback launcher" is set as default. I can activate Trebuchet by selecting "Start App" in settings tabs, but "sample leanback launcher" come back every time I press the "home" button. :confused:

Best Rom for 2/32 versiom of MG5+, is quite light and works very smoothly, it is the only rom of Android Q in which the Movile CoD in BR was not crashed, very good work, thank you very much !!!!

the only drawback was with the launcher, but once you get used to it you can use it quietly.

I used the ROM too but hadn't that problem.

At the moment I'm on Arrow OS.
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] cjdijk:
In case you want to try ArrowOS 11, it's not downloadable anymore, it's been deleted from their website, but I have saved it. It isn't the newest one, there seems to be one which is a month newer, but I haven't saved that one. Another one you might want to try is CrDroid. That's the one I used before switching to Lineage.

I did buy a new phone about 3 moth's ago, so I am not using my Moto G5 Plus anymore. I am now using a Moto G84-5G which is about the same size (1cm higher, same width), but bigger screen (smaller edges). Same location of the fingerprint sensor.

I'm facing restart issue in custom roms... Is there any solution... ❓❔

Device = Moto g5 plus (xt1686)
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Wolfcity:
Which ROM are you talking about? The one from this thread? If yes what build? Rooted?

When are you facing that issues?

More information needed.
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] piyushyadav30:
I am using (dot os v5.2.1) i am facing this issue in every custom rom not using lineage os... yes device is also rooted
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Wolfcity:
So and "restart issues" is what? Doesn't restart (start?) at all? Please explain the problem. This doesn't happen on lineage ?

Does the problem appear before you're rooted?

Btw,how are you rooted? Magisk/alpha/Kitsune/kernelsu?
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] piyushyadav30:
Restarted.. Using in normal usage...like scrolling something and also when lock and unlock the device.... Not everytime but yes sometimes here is restarting issue... I'm also try lineage os... Still here is a problem.... Is this software or hardware problem can't understand.....

Also change my battery and again switch to original battery.... But problem was same....

I think it was created after unlocking the bootloader... But don't know the exact way...

Rooted through Magisk...

But in lineage I try it without root...
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Wolfcity:
Have you installed Twrp or another custom recovery?

Magisk installed to boot,not to recovery?
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] piyushyadav30:
yes

twrp installed and currently using lineage os
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Wolfcity:
And using TJW Magisk?

Maybe uninstall/reinstall Magisk (and all modules) ,if that doesn't help maybe reinstall the whole ROM.
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] piyushyadav30:
Already do....

Also relocked the bootloader....

also in stock rom...

I think it's a hardware issue.....

[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] siroccoxda:
Following up on my own issue; I wasn't aware that this was the consequence of that weird "Sample Leanback Launcher" default app launcher that this ROM comes with - I guess it's a launcher designed for smart televisions? My home screen looked so weird with that launcher I legitimately though something had gone wrong, like it was mis-detecting my screen resolution/DPI and rendering the "real" launcher improperly.

Per other advice in the thread (and having already rooted the install with Magisk) I was able to (though I do not remember how) get out of that launcher and actually access the Play Store, install Root Uninstaller, then locate, force-stop, and disable (some apps call it "freeze") the offending default launcher app, changing the default home screen/launcher app to the bundled Pixel Launcher.

Also, if anyone is curious, this proved to be a functional replacement for the default Camera app, which seemed to stop when starting pretty much 100% of the time:

https://f.celsoazevedo.com/file/gcamera/MGC_6.1.021_Potter_v7_san1ty.apk
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] time_nl:
I too went back to recheck my own work. I reflashed the latest gothicVI ROM. Just switching to another launcher was indeed not successful. I used Titanium Backup to freeze the app instead of Root Uninstaller as you had done.

Now I was able to switch to ANY other launcher successfully and 3 button navigation worked properly for me.

I also download the camera APK you suggested and am quite satisfied with it.

Thanks to you and to gothicVI latest ROM I'm now a very happy camper!

No Signal / Service

Hey. I like this OS, thanks!

But unfortunately after installing TEST-lineage-17.1-20200607-UNOFFICIAL-potter_security-patch-date_2020-06-05.zip and various previous versions, I have no signal with both SIM in my MOTO G5 Plus. Can anybody help please? Both IMEI numbers are shown correctly.

I checked also various other custom Roms with Android 10 - no signal, same problem. But when I install Lineage OS 15.1 on that phone I have signal and the SIM is working. Why?

I used TWRP 3.3.1-0 to install. Why is this Lineage version called "TEST"?

OK, thanks in advance.

PS: I have had the same problem with the launcher, but after changing the launchers it based on the Tips in the previous Posts it worked!
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] TopazTestified:
Hey, I was having the same issue the first time I installed the ROM. The problem is actually widespread across all Moto G5 Plus users, and has to do with Persist and EFS partitions becoming inaccessible by the system due to changes made from previous ROM installs. I just figured out a fix, so I'm gonna list the exact steps I took. Some might be unnecessary, but I'll leave that up to your discretion.

Ensure that you have a backup of EFS and Persist from the stock firmware (when you first got the device). If you don't, backup your most recently working EFS and Persist, or use the earliest backups you have.

Wipe System, Data, Cache, Dalvik/ART Cache.

Install the latest [Nougat][Stock][Rom] TWRP Flashable Stock Build. Choose to erase the EFS in the installation wizard.

My EFS backup was from 7, so I restored it here.

Install the latest [Oreo][Stock][Rom] TWRP Flashable Stock Build. Choose to NOT erase the EFS in the installation wizard.

Install the latest LineageOS build from this thread. If you're using Gapps, install those too with API 10 and ARM64.

Install Magisk, or your root manager of choice.

Install your custom kernel if you're using one.

Try and boot, but it gets stuck on the boot screen, then realize you have no Persist partition, so you restore your Persist and boot again. My Persist was from my LineageOS 16 backup, but it seems to work fine here.

This is only exactly what I did on my device, and of course, using a Persist and EFS from different roms and installing them when I did could cause unforeseen issues. If you no longer have a persist or EFS, I've read it's possible to get those from fastboot installs of stock oreo or just flashing someone else's persist. I'm no expert on this, but I found this thread to be helpful in figuring out the "No Signal" issue. Good luck with fixing this issue.
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] stephone1:
Wow, cool! Thanks. It worked. Perfect.

I also found out, that the Arrow OS works perfectly fine without the steps above. IMEI and SIM working fine - no work arounds neccessary.

compass, ctsProfile, and disabling SampleLeanbackLauncher

This ROM is great, I am very happy with it. I only have two issues.

But first, I wish to note that you do not need a 3rd party app to disable the default SampleLeanbackLauncher that prevents functional launchers from running. Assuming you are rooted with Magisk, simply connect through ADB and run:

adb shell
su
[I](grant su access on phone)[/I]
pm disable com.example.sampleleanbacklauncher
exit
exit

As for my two issues:

The compass is not reported by Android. Note the physical compass is only in the US version of Potter (XT1687). Does anyone have ideas for getting the compass enabled?

Does not pass SafetyNet Check; returns "false" for ctsProfile. I believe this is a common problem for Android 10 (Q). I tried Core Mode only in Magisk, disabling ADB, all the regular suggestions..., plus spoofing some other Potter fingerprints since the prefix of my fingerprint shows up as:

google/coral/coral:10/QQ1B.200205.002/6084387:user/release-keys​

... and I figured it should include potter instead. So using MagiskHide Props Config, I tried the tool's built-in 7.0 key plus:

motorola/Moto G5 Plus/potter:10/QQ3A.200605.001/eng.sebast.20200607.090618:userdebug/test-keys (from this ROM's updater-script)

8.1.0/OPS28.85-13/b8ea:user/release-keys (from stock)

10/QQ3A.200605.001/5898e8a82a:userdebug/test-keys (from AncientOS; its thread claims SafetyNet is working)

10/QQ3A.200605.001/e28685d066:userdebug/release-keys (from PixelExperiencePlus)​

... as well as adding "__2020-06-05" to each of them (for the latest security update).

This may not be the correct place to post my problem, but not sure where else to go. Recently obtained a Moto G5 plus, unlocked the bootloader and installed TWRP 3.3.1. Currently running Lineage 17.1. Whenever I create a backup, and then attempt to restore it, The device goes to the bootlogo, then to the arcing circle, but never loads. Apparently I'm not properly creating a backup with Android 10. I'm backing up system, data, and boot, like I've done with my previous phones, but I must be overlooking some new requirement. Any advise on what I need to do to create a useable backup would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] time_nl:
If this is your first phone with an ARM8 chip you might have noticed there are several more partitions, like vendor, persist, and EFS. That being said, I backup and restore all partitions EXCEPT System Image and Cache.

Can I suggest you try backing up and restoring a larger set of the partitions available on your phone?
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] sff462:
Well, I tried your suggestion, and backed up the partitions you recommended, but still get the bootloop. Not sure where to go from here.
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] sff462:
Last night I discovered an article on the twrp.me website, in their faq's, that addressed this problem. It's title is "What should I back up in TWRP" It states that dm-verity, which checks the system and vendor partitions for changes, creates the problem. The solution they give is to not backup SYSTEM and VENDOR partitions, but to only backup SYSTEM IMAGE and VENDOR IMAGE partitions, as well as boot. I tried this, and was able to restore my backup without problems. The full article explains the problem in detail. My backup and restore problem has been solved.

is it going to be official in future?
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] riyan65:
Mostly the answer is no, as to get the official tag the ROM need to be completely stable with all working features from lineage. But it not possible right now since Motorola has made it hard to make it official with the stock firmware. (Actually, I don't know what Motorola has done, but heard they did something with software which make it quite impossible to make more stable to pass lineage test.)

APN MMS Config

I cannot send images in Pulse. Is this because of the missing MMSC in the Verizon APN settings? Can the APN settings be edited in Lineage or is this on the EFS or Persist partition?

This MMS send issue was due to the Verizon MMS 1.2 MB image limit. Not the APN settings. I did find the APN settings in the Android 10 location /data/user_de/0/com.android.providers.telephony/shared_prefs directory. I believe the "de" stands for data encryption.
