[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] pastapie:
I'm in New Orleans and delt with all Network connection problems too. I'm on my 3 rd replacement and spent hours, days, and weeks ping-ponging through Verizon finest bull**** techs, Verizon sent me to OnePlus tech where the tech there referred me CDMA LESS and after a long work about found out that I was already on CDMA LESS. The only thing that helped other than bazilion factory resets and it's not the solution by any means is turn the automatic best Network set it to manual Verizon 4g. You still get the stupid 5g emblem but I've noticed an improvement as in connectivity. Not stable, I get interference and dropped calls all the time. Also i read something on how Verizon used cheaper antennas for their fake 5g push. Also could this be a conflict with Oxygen? I'm reading a lot of similar Network issues after updates.
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] SPEED_RACER_5.0:
Right on thanks, Not sure if manual mode actually sticks. Does it just switch back? But yes I too figured it'd help out. When I do let's say Run a diagnostic from Verizon's app one of the first things it says is this phone cannot auto connect to use lte/cdma for better signal. And that's wild it's connected and automatic mode. So it's obvious it's a hardware issue or software issue on their end. If they would allow you to control the phone we could fix it. Just got my first replacement today. Fixing the boot it up soon and see what the deal is software wise etc etc. The connectivity issue were both having is just 1 issue lol. I've got six or eight more easy. Mine seems like it's good data connection wise either with the fake 5g icon or without it. Bars will start fluctuating pretty rapidly (It's searching) I'll lose the 5G icon in turn lose hotspot lose date connection etc. Then it will come back with no 5G icon, connect, Be gr8 for about 10min or I reset prl & net setting. Someone tell me there 5g for most parts like here & there is basically just a glorified 4G LTE. There 5g coverage map clearly says or did there's no 5g here. I believe this to be true as I have connected to real vzw 5g in Tampa an you can tell big time!! This 5g even with there signal booster they sent me is not any if all better than 4g. Could kinda care less about the 5g it's the consistent intermittent network issues. Pls lmk what you find out either by p.m. or what have ya. I'll do the same. I'm gonna try this new vzw root I believe an switch too global or whatever I need too do weather it voids certain things or not lol. Sorry 4 the long read but wanted give ya what I knew. Here's a shot of there diagnostic mess. From vzw. An a shot of real 5g speed test before the updated deal that displays the 5g icon

[IMG="Battery comparison"]https://i.imgur.com/IVWZkuP.jpg[/IMG]

As noted on the image, the left battery is a low quality knock-off and the right one is the one originally installed in the phone.

The following is a list of differences I observed

Tighter wrapping on original

Print on the front of the flex cable on original

Better print quality and clarity on original

Original is slightly wider, shorter and thicker

Black wrapping on original has a deeper tone

Original has printing in the back

Original is slightly heavier

Original *contained* a pull tab

Printing is faded on the fake

Older & bolder logo on the fake

Uneven thickness on the fake

Also, it is important to note that the knock-off was considerably worse in terms of battery life compared to the older original.
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] freedom-pg:
Hello! I hope someone can help with this.

I got my unlocked G7 via Google Fi back in December, and I've been using it on a variety of networks. For the past month, I've been on Tello, and I haven't had any problems.

Last week, I received the Android 10 update. I had no problems with service.

Last night, I received the June 1,2020 security patch update (version QPUS30.52-53-4) ... and this morning I discovered I can't make phone calls. If I try, the call disconnects immediately.

Anyone have any ideas? Mobile data appears to be working fine...

As I'm on Tello/Sprint, I don't seem to have access to the Volte/Wifi calling settings. Searching the internet revealed that other folks have had problems with Wifi calling in earlier updates, and I was wondering if it was turned on and causing issues, but I don't see any way to change/check that...

Edit: Okay, this is odd -- I have service now. I should note that I did remove the SIM card and reboot, and I also went into setting to clear all network settings. I didn't have a working connection after doing either, but a few hours later I seemed to have a working connection?
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] scopus1972:
I'm having similar issues with a GoogleFi unlocked Moto g7. Worked fine for months but after updating to Android 10, I get the 'no service's message on and off all the time now. Very annoying to not be able to make a phone call. Anyone have ideas on how to permanently fix?
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] gadget1999:
I also had similar issue after Android 10 update: I'm on Verizon and now can only get 3G network, also takes a long time for the network to switch from non-working LTE to 1x, then to 3G. Seems there are some similar discussions on Reddit, but still no solutions: https://www.reddit.com/r/MotoG/comments/hoaejj/upgraded_to_android_10_on_moto_g7_and_i_can_only/
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] Spaceminer:
Find the firmware for your model, and flash the modem. Example...

fastboot flash modem_a NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash modem_b NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase DDR

That should fix you up.
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] gadget1999:
Thanks for the info. Would this require to unlock the bootloader or root the phone?
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] Spaceminer:
It shouldn't matter so long as it's your correct firmware, and Motorola signed it properly with their keys. If you need help finding firmware, just post your model number (I think you guys are xt1962-?) and your country/carrier. It's okay if you're carrier unlocked. Just let me know if that's the case.
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] gadget1999:
Mine is XT1962-1 (from Google Fi). I tried to use the Rescue tool from Lenovo, and the tool downloaded a ROM (RIVER_QPUS30.52_23_4_cid50_subsidy_DEFAULT_regulatory_DEFAULT_CFC.xml), not sure if just grab the NON-HLOS.bin from it? Thanks
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] Spaceminer:
Yeah you should be able to just pull the modem out and flash it. Give it a go!
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] gadget1999:
Thanks a lot for your help. But it seems the behavior is still the same after flash the modem. I guess probably need to wait Motorola roll out a hotfix for this then.:(
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] Spaceminer:
Have you tried pulling your sim, rebooting without it, then putting it back in and rebooting once more? You might have a stale apn in there. You can also try this from the dialer. I'm not sure if it still works on Moto devices though. ##27263# if it does work, it should reactivate you and reset the apn.
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] gadget1999:
Thanks for the tip, just tried that it's still the same issue.

From the discussion thread below, it seems the Android 10 update is missing components to support CDMA, so it may require an update from Motorola to address the issue..

[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] Spaceminer:
Wowsers! They really screwed up this time. You might be able to flash a slightly older modem and fix the issue. It doesn't look like they're in a hurry to rectify this situation. I would try the modem from one update back.
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] gadget1999:
Yeah, if they cannot fix this in time and many angry customers, could be a good candidate for class action. I'll probably wait a few month before venturing new stuffs (3G sucks, but it's still better than the risk of brick the phone :) ). Thanks for your help so far.
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] Spaceminer:
You won't brick it by flashing an older modem. Worst case, it just wouldn't work. I promise you.
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] clintongsan:
I've had numerous problems since 23-7 was released I was immediately soft bricked yesterday (probably had something to do with Magisk being installed pre-update) and I tried EVERYTHING. G7 would boot to bootloader, failed to boot anywhere else because it said boot.img is not signed or whatever and bootloader screen showed flashing locked. But heres the funny part; I couldn't flash boot or anything because the device thought that it was locked BUT I could boot into twrp from fastboot. Once in TWRP I tried various formats and wipes and even sideloading custom roms but all would just reboot to stock recovery. FINALLY ,just as I was about to give up, I looked and noticed that the bootloader screen showed "flashing locked". Now I had tried fastboot commands such as oem lock, oem lock *unlock code* and always got "invalid boot state." Seeing this tag though I decided to try one last thing... "fastboot flashing unlock" and immediately device unlocked and rebooted. Then I manually flashed the original 52-23 firmware and let it update from there. This is the 2nd time this has happened so theres something to say about Magisk rooted devices having serious issues during OEM updates. The first time my phone was completely stuck on black screen in 2019, had that device replaced. 2nd time I was able to "somehow" (don't really remember how) user loader.img and managed to save the device; and this was the third time I've had trouble. Be careful not to brick your devices and goodluck to all!
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] crazy4jack:
i get today some security patch for g7 ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] xdaman85:
Ok im sorry if someones mentioned this already, its just that i noticed it now and thought id let everyone know just incase no ones tripped over the idea.

as we all know, when S2U2 is installed on the diamond, pressing the power button on the top locks the phone and puts it into the slide to unlock interface, however alot of people have noticed that by pressing the home button, it takes you to tflow3d thus the S2U2 lock becomes useless on the diamond as you can easily and accidently press the home key while the phone is in your pocket.

N e ways back to the "revelation",

i was playing around with secondtoday, where i used the standard wm lock, and then pressed the power key to put it into the S2U2 interface, i now realised that the phone was trully locked, and nothing would happen when you press the home key.

n e ways, i just thought wouldnt it be possible to make it so that by pressing the power button, both the S2U2 and wm lock start at the the same time, and then when u slide to unlock the standard wm lock is also disabled.

im sure some1's thought of this, but i just had to share my thought just incase :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jomo25:
Or you can use the new 1.13 version of S2U2, I think it solves this?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nonegiven:
It does. Use the key lock feature.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] xdaman85:
nope it doesnt solve the problem yet but im sure it will soon
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nonegiven:
And you enabled the key lock? It's disabled by default.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jomo25:
I thought the new "Key Hook" feature did it. I don't have a Diamond, so I can't confirm.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] A_C:
Sure I came along this idea long time ago when there are so many other lock programs flowing around.

Technically, there are a few issues:

- the lock & unlock process of S2U2 & the device lock has to be in-sync;

- S2U2 has always be on top of the device lock when locked;

- automate the device lock & unlock (most other lock programs have done this part);

- take care of the CallerID.

Recently this idea came across my mind again, as you said, because of the "Home" button of the Diamond... On the other hand, there is a "long press end key" function in the Diamond for activating the device lock. It looks like very suitable testing bed is right on my hand... so let's see...

P.S. The latest version do try to fix the "Home" button but in another way. You may read HERE for more.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] xdaman85:
im sure youl figure it out A_C, take your time.

Thanks for what youv done so far
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] gfunkmonk:
I mean its with SuperSU and of course doesn't survive a reboot and still can't figure out anyway to write to /system..

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jherane:
Hey man [MENTION=2550035]gfunkmonk[/MENTION], thank you so much for continuing development on this phone because I lost all hope recently. I saw your link to github.com and downloaded the files. Flashed the first folder using Odin but couldn't figure out what to do with the second folder. I would love if you could assist me in getting it done. I know it's tempting root but at least I could remove bloatware and run certain software. Looking forward to a reply and hopefully full root could actually be a possibility. I'll also volunteer to test anything you come up with if you continue development.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] gfunkmonk:
Oh yeah, the second folder is a linux script.. i'll add something for windows. Unfortunately you aren't going to be able to do that anyways. If you try to remount /system read/write the phone will lock up and reboot. I believe this is due to dm-verity which would require patching the kernel. Not possible since the bootloader is locked.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jherane:
I saw different options on different threads, Would something like this be possible on marshmallow 6.0.1? Or maybe flashing a different firmware such as one for the N920T beacause they use the same processor after flashing a combination file? Full root is possible on 5.1.1 for the N920V but because we cant downgrade if you didn't have an old device without updates it's impossible. So I think the best bet is working with marshmallow for now. I've seen people say they get temp root without crashing using mobilego so maybe applying what you have here would have better luck on MM. Maybe dm-verity could be bypassed and maybe we can use safestrap to flash files that could help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] gfunkmonk:
You most certainly can downgrade to 5.1.1. I did it a couple days ago myself. But yes you do have to flash a combination firmware and use safestrap, Now, I'm not much of a dev but I did make some pretty cool roms for my Moto Droid and later my Droid 3... Now, I remeber we had a safestrap on it, I almost swear it had some nifty was to boot other kernels... but that was just 2012 and I can't remeber.

As far as MM if you had a engboot kernel that gives root in adb, it would work exactly the same. Sorry I don't know much about the N920V, I have a N920T.. I got the Verizon one as a cheap whim on ebay. Plus it was gold lol.

I've got a way to get perm root but its so complicated and still can't touch /system or it reboots so not even worth it,

Either way, I found MM firmware that should flash, I might mess with it later.

Oh, and I certainly wouldn't flash another models anything. Like with Note8s they literally are all the same... I *think* I read something about the N920P being close enough it could boot our kernel or the other way around... something like that. But I think any of that stuff would just end badly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jherane:
Hey man could you maybe give me a link to the combination file and safestrap as well as instructions on how to downgrade? There's permanent root on 5.1.1 and I'd rather have a rooted phone on lollipop than a stock one on nougat.

Hopefully you can mess around the MM firmware and figure something out. I think we're about the only two persons still interested in root on the version note 5 so we gotta stick together lol.

I'm definitely no dev or anything but I can contribute with info as I've searched every thread on XDA and other sides and I will help you test etc. Thanks again for everything you're doing man, you've stopped me from giving up on this device XD .
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] gfunkmonk:
Yeah, so this is the combonation file I used: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FEU3Msz3MQTCv5DnMe6zc8PlZERa2y6x/edit

So flash it in Odin and let it boot up all the way and whatnot.

use wondershare/mobilego to root from your computer or kingoroot or Kingroot 5.3.7, but you'll want to switch their junk for SuperSU. There's a script for that. Search "replace kingroot with supersu" the file is usually called mrw.zip

Go to the play store and install 'flashfire' If you have trouble with it crashing when you start it manually change the date on the phone to 2012, it'll work then, just believe me.

get safestrap 4.08 here https://xdaforums.com/verizon-galaxy-note5/recovery-locked-safestrap-recovery-v4-t3915714

in flashfire click install zip, select the safestrap and when it asks hit mount system rw. Then hit flash, screen will go dark stuff will scroll by it'll reboot. when it does you'll have an option to enter recovery.

NOBLEROM is pre-rooted 5.1.1 it's here https://xdaforums.com/verizon-galaxy-note5/rom-noble-rom-aoj3-v1-0-t3940543

flash that into recovery and then reflash safestrap before you leave, cause it'll be overwritten by that rom

and uhhh that's it. when you reboot you should be greeted with rooted 5.1.1
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jherane:
Hey man I got it to work and i just want to say thank you so much! My error before was that flashify wasn't flashing the zip properly. Flashfire did the trick and the ROM works now and everything. However I'm noticing a few bugs such as the WiFi password is forgotten after a reboot and the fingerprint sensor option no longer works. I know you weren't on development of Noble ROM but any idea on how to fix this?

Also I saw this customn rom - : Samsung OneUI Running Full Android 9.0 For the Exynos7420 Family! . Here's the link if you have time to have a look [ https://xdaforums.com/note5/development/rom-floyd-n7fe-port-v1-0-t3882804 ] Do you think I would be able to flash it now that I have safestrap installed?

Also if there are any updates regarding getting permanent root on Marshmallow or ultimately Nougat think we could be kept in the loop on this thread? I'll probably just check in every few days. Once again thanks for everything you've helped me with.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] gfunkmonk:
Again the only kernels we can use are flashed through odin and have to pass secure boot check, So stock or engboot. Now I used to run that rom on my t-mobile version, till it bugged me so much that the camera is broken in the S8/N8 ports past Nougat. As for the wifi pass and biometrics, never checked it. Now, same thing happens when you root a Note8 (which is a similar process) and I believed it's fixed by flashing a Nougat bootloader. Unfortunatley, we don't have one, so basically both will be forever broken.

As for MM, you gotta remember I'm one guy and I'm simply doing this for fun. I don't always know what I'm doing exactly 100%, some of its straight trial and error. I'll probably try flashing stock MM and playing around a bit tomorrow maybe, but I wouldn't have high hopes for anything there either tbh.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] gfunkmonk:
I got a little excited because I found an engboot kernel for MM, but unfortunately, it's exactly like nougat. root is temp and trying to modify or remount /system leaves phone unresponsive and eventually reboots. However, I haven't noticed any random reboots like nougat.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jherane:
Haha the journey continues, I figured it would be a huge task since most people said it was impossible XD. It's a little more stable than Nougat I guess because it's closer to 5.1.1 I think the issue is always gonna lie with getting system to mount r/w without freezing. Whatever code they inserted as soon as the system is altered the kernel panics unfortunately.

Btw Completely get you regarding the development. I didn't mean any disrespect, just meant in the event you had a breakthrough, wasn't so much out of expectation ?

I see you mentioned a S8/N8 port, I'm not the most advanced in the custom rom section so are you saying that the the noble rom you mentioned to me earlier today is an s8 or n8 port or is that another rom? If I can ask you to clarify?

Lastly about the Wi-Fi and Fingerprint, it sucks but I can live with that with everything that root offers. I'm gonna do a complete wipe and repeat the process to see if it goes away or search the noble rom thread to see if anyone had the same error.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] gfunkmonk:
No, the Floyd rom you linked me is an N8 port. The Note8 came up because they way you root it is similar. Flash combination, flashfire, all that.

Now interestingly, 6.0.1 let me make a backup of /system without rebooting, 7.0 would not. So I got one idea here that could work, but it's going to take me a minute to test it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jherane:
Well that actually sounds like progress. There was another thread on here about rooting the N920V, Idk if you've seen it for maybe situations where you get stuck. All the best.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] gfunkmonk:
Can you send me/post a link? I have learned a couple things today, its progress but I don't know how much.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jherane:
Long story short: can we flash normal system.img over ENG bootloaders? I got "SYSTEM REV. CHECK FAIL DEVICE:1, BINARY:0" after reboot, so instead we can flash it as flashable zip. yes this work but we end up with bootloop. so what to do to pass this situation.

digging in ENG boot.img ramdisk I can see "export LD_PRELOAD libsigchain.so:liblptcp.so" and system/lib/liblptcp.so nor system/lib64/liblptcp.so is not there in stock 5.1.1, So take them from ENG firmware you will get fully working system over combo bootloader.
