[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] Zaxx32:
Hi dcybergeek,

Welcome. I have the exact same than that you do. I started here looking to do a twrp/magisk root like I did back with my Motp G5 Plus...was np prob find everyone did it. NOT SO for our plain G7. Being a novice, I gave up.

Now I drop to look and ask (beg) to see if anyone knows of magisk root...with or without using twrp if need be. The silence has been deafening...no yes or no or maybe...after nearly begging.

No pne could be bothered to give a simple reply...over n over as can be seen all over! And I thought was THE PLACE on to net for help, but no.

Luckily YES...Lineage 17.1 does work on our phone!! I'm about to just give up on on findi ANY FORM of a Magisk root, I guess.

Simply go hrre:

https://xdaforums.com/t/official-nightlies-lineageos-17-1.4075907/

and

Motorola moto g7 - LineageOS 17.1

LineageOS 17.1 Changelog for Motorola moto g7 (river). This page is listing the official LineageOS 17.1 (Android 10 10.0) changes and downloads for Motorola moto g7 (river).

Plenty of help...unless you wanna do a twrp + magisk root...no one will even bother to confirm OR deny anything u ask.The following guide looks good but I can't gey ANY of the XDA Pros to respond! Smdh...

Moto G7/G7 Plus Guide: Unlock Bootloader, Install TWRP, and Root with Magisk

In this guide, we will show you how to unlock the bootloader, install TWRP recovery, and subsequently root the Moto G7 and Moto G7 Plus using Magisk. The instructions will work on any Moto G7 or G7…

www.thecustomdroid.com

I hope all work out for you. I gotta buy a diff. phone if I want a magisk root...I think but not sure. Looks like a usedPixel 3 XL or a used Pixel 4a.

Cheers...
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] dcybergeek:
Hi Zaxx32 , thanks for putting this up for me.

True that regarding the pixel 4a. I am thinking of moving on to that or even if I could get a better deal on the 3a.

I am still thinking to try out these guides. Worse scenario, dead phone and a chance to buy a new one :D
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] dcybergeek:
Update for someone else if looking for help/advice:

The LineageOS 17.1 nightlies works well. Managed to install Lineage OS 17.1 from XDA with TWRP. Next up will try Magisk and share the progress :D
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] Zaxx32:
I wish u the best of luck...unfortunately, you're gonna need it...esp if u have questions. When I asked just the BASIC question 'if river could successfully be magisk rooted via twrp now that a new version of twrp for river had been released?'...the silence was...still, deafening. Either there are still issues or it now works but those who know how have taken an oath os secrecy OR they just can't be bothered to help those of us stil 'learning android'...I dunno which! My point being...if it doesn't work...JUST SAY SO! lol
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] dcybergeek:
Thanks, could be the model is getting old. Hence the support is dying? But yea myself too didn't expect that from XDA.
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] DJBhardwaj:
Yes, that adds as a contributing factor. But I think it's still well-supported (at least for now).

Anyways, back to your original question. The first thing you need is to unlock the bootloader.

But before that:

1) Take a backup as everything will be erased during bootloader unlock.

2) Download and set up Android SDK platform-tools on your computer.
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] Zaxx32:
Omg...DJBhardwaj...do you know how to root the G7 via twrp + Magisk??

:oops::oops::oops:
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] dcybergeek:
I have unlocked, twrp with magisk on Lineage already.

But tbh it cannot be used as a daily driver :(
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] DJBhardwaj:
Yes, it's quite easy if you know the right steps.
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] DJBhardwaj:
Have you tried other available ROMs?

What issues are you exactly facing with LOS 17.1? Are there any known bugs?
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] Zaxx32:
That's what I was thinking...and is why I got my unlock but just can't pull the trigger cuz I'm not 100% confident I have the order correct. Been searching even harder since the latest twrp releases but no two guides are the same!! ...and I can't risk bricking my phone. Is there anyway I could convince you to show me the correct order/steps? I'd be happy to compensate you for your time...:confused:
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] DJBhardwaj:
IMO, always be ready for a brick when dealing with such things for the first time. It's not like it's bound to happen, but it could. Especially with all the confusion because of all the different tutorials out there.

Rooting/TWRP/ROMs only deal with non-critical partitions, so even if it gets brick, you can easily recover.

LOL no, please. No need to compensate for anything. It's a public forum, and we all are here voluntarily.

Just hit me up on PM, Telegram, or Discord.
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] Zaxx32:
Gotcha. I only recently lost my 'root-cherry' to my G5+ which was a great first root but I didn't do my homework re: the' seamless' update system that google said would be a requirement moving forward..(then back-tracked on it in short order..). So my single slot learning experience was pretty straight forward...but reading all the posts on the G7 left my head spinning. I'll hit you tomorrow via PM if that's ok cuz I have to use the on-screen keyboard as I lack the dexterity to type/use a normal kb...1 clk per character is too damn slow for real-time chat...lmao Ttys...and thank you for sharing your brain-power! Gonna do my backups and transfer everything to the pc tonight. Thx again...
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] DJBhardwaj:
Sure. I will try and help as much as possible. It was confusing at first to me as well, but I managed to wrap my head around with enough reading (thanks to some awesome members of the community).
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] Zaxx32:
No doubt...I was 'mentored' thru my first root by Wolfcity. The kicker was I'd never used a smart phone til about 8 months b4. Always been a Windows Desktop PC guy n feature phone (burner) user. Leaned a lot...quickly..lol

Ttys...need some rest atm.
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] dcybergeek:
Bugs I am facing are hangs some random times. Plus K-9 does not seem to be working well. I delete mails but on desktop it still shows.
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] DJBhardwaj:
Have you tried shifting to a custom kernel? Are all users of LOS 17.1 facing sudden hangs?

As for K-9, I believe it's more related to syncing issues. It could be that the K-9 app is not able to run background sync.
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] dcybergeek:
Zaxx32 as stated above by both me and DJBhardwaj the very best rather than PM, offsite links would be to go through any XDA related thread.

I understand you are looking for root on stock and not lineage and or any other roms.

If it is to regain privacy I still recom you simply go lineage and or other rom.

And if you still want to root on stock, then there is a high chance it won't work based on the -6 model you own. The best I would suggest is disable unwanted apps if unable to delete. Keep google to the bare minimum (do not sync them all). Use unrooted adblockers, set permissions accordingly and set custom dns under network settings.
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] dcybergeek:
I cannot speak for them all, but yes I too suspect kernal issue as the lineage is supported for my -6 model but I suppose not to a full 100%. Other than this, I am not facing any hard errors just sometimes random freezes for 2-3 seconds but to me it is bearable.
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] DJBhardwaj:
Custom ROMs or root for the G7 don't work on a per-model basis. So, it's not that.

I would still suggest trying out a custom kernel to see if it makes any difference.
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] DJBhardwaj:
Good advice in terms of maintaining privacy. (y)

As for rooting the stock ROM, it should work without problems. Could be done with, or without TWRP.
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] dcybergeek:
Will give it a go in the coming 1-2 days. Thanks!

[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Bl@kH@wk:
I accidently flashed the lineage 16 recovery instead of lineage 17.1 recovery. I tried to install the 17.1 update through updater but my phone stuck into recovery mode. Neither I can boot into bootloader nor to android. I can''t flash anything. Power + volume down and connect the cable also not working to go into bootloader. Even bootloader option within the recovery also brings me back to recovery mode. ...adb devices command is also showing "device offline". Any help will be appreciated.
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] stukka2006:
you should start from the beginning

is your bootloader still unlocked?
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Bl@kH@wk:
I can't go into fastboot mode. Is there any other way to check it?
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Bl@kH@wk:
Thank you @stukka2006 for replying me. I guess I saved my phone. So here what I did-

1. Extracted the stock firmware (Luckily I had one but can be found in the forum) and copied the dload folder to sdcard (as I was not able to access internal storage). (@stukka2006 your hint to start from the beginning)

2. Power off the phone and pressed Both volume buttons + power button simultaneously. After the vibration I left the power button while still holding both vol buttons till software update screen appears. But software update failed. So I just touched the reboot now option. The phone rebooted to fastboot mode.

3. I installed TWRP but was not able to reboot to recovery through commands and system reboot command brings me back to fastboot mode. So I again power off the device with cable connected and pressed both vol buttons. This time phone showed recovery screen (Should have worked with normal button shortcuts also, I guess) and I flashed the rom and rebooted normally.

Everything is working fine now except that I lost the data.
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] stukka2006:
Happy you got all clear my friend !!!
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] methuselah:
You are quite lucky to have the stock ROM.
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Bl@kH@wk:
Yeah...who knows when you need it. :)

[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] domtrump:
I'm not really sure where to post this inquiry as I am very new to this. (Feel free to move it to appropriate spot.)

I need to get this device updated to at least lollipop or above as none of my steaming apps (Xfinity, Hulu, etc.) will run on KitKat.

I printed out the article in this forum called Guide [Root]ing the [T230NU] for DUMMIES (Galaxy Tab 4 7.0) and will follow the instructions to ROOT the device. Before I do, I have the following questions:

-What is the most stable ROM that will get me to lollipop or above?

-Where do I obtain this ROM (download link)?

-Once rooted, what is the next step to install this ROM?

Thank you for your assistance (and patience) with this issue. The device still works fine, I just need a higher OS. I'd hate to just throw it out because Samsung decided it wasn't worth it to develop an update.

Thanks,

Dom

[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] UnluckyGuy69:
I have searched a lot in the Galaxy J7 thread. I couldn't find a single rom where the J7 3G Edition is totally supported. I don't wanna look upon thousands of comments to find out which is the correct rom. So, I would be grateful if anyone could kindly tell me which rom is best for the J700H-DS and where do I also find the TWRP for this specific phone. The rom must be stable (really minor bugs are fine, but not major ones). I also don't mind an older version of android, unless it's older than 6.0.1.

To anyone who can actually help me out correctly, thank you in advance.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] lazarilic72:
HI!

I pulled some files rom my Vivax tpc-101 3G to try porting a custom ROM. Since that didn't work out I wanted to post the files here for someone that might need a stock rom, kernel, recovery, twrp... or wanted to try porting a ROM.

Files included in this folder:

- stock kernel

- magisk kernel

- stock recovery

- twrp port from a porting tool

- TWRP backup of system

NOTES:

- Touch is not working correctly on TWRP (flipped and inverted touch)

- System backup is rooted with magisk and contains some build.prop tweaks. Changed boot animation.

DOWNLOAD:

- Drive Link

PS:

Could anyone make a flashable zip out of the twrp bakup? I tried but I don't know how to create the updater-script and there is no ROM for this tablet that I could use as a flashable zip base.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] simcarloc:
Damn! Whilst making calls my phone get's pretty hot guys - I just hung up from a pretty long conversation and the little Diamond was toasty!

I know from other threads that this can happen, but how can you distinguish whether it's a serious problem or not?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] BDWN:
My Diamond only seems to get hot while charging, and when using CPU intensive applications, not really during phone calls. But apart from that, I don't really think you have a serious problem, as I'm sure the folks at HTC have tested every aspect of battery while in use.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] kalevs:
mine gets also pretty hot if phonecall lasts longer than 45 minutes
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] WMguy:
Yeah, join the DEFC (Diamond Eggs Frying Club).

In the manual it notes that the phone may become warm with prolonged use. I've had mine for about 3 weeks and it doesn't seem to cause any problems. However, I'm starting to suspect that the phone warming is what causes the battery meter to wig out. When it gets too warm, the percentage no longer drops. Then all of a sudden I'll lose 20% battery in 2 minutes when the phone has cooled back down.

I downloaded PowerGuard and have been watching the battery % in relation to temperature and I'm pretty sure there's a coorelation. If not, then this is the worst battery meter I've ever had on a phone. Basically, it's just a rough ballpark guess. Couple this with a crap battery to start, and it gets pretty frustrating...

My phone gave me the update download notification, but somehow cannot download the OTA - get an error each time. Anyone else on global has same problem?

I'm on T-Mobile but bought from OnePlus directly. Same problem.
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] zander21510:
you have to uninstall magisk using "restore images", then install the OTA, then reinstall magisk to the inactive slot. it's failing the check on the boot partition if you're rooted
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] sjgoel:
Thanks.

I think that the "Restore Images" option shows up when pressing the "Uninstall" in the Manager. Is it so?

Question: After OTA, can I just "Install" Magisk directly from the Magisk Manager?

Or would I need to patch the boot image and then flash it manually.
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] almahix:
I tried the whole restore images and it failed so I tried to fastboot boot the unpatched 11.0.2.2. it booted but no wifi for. Whatever reason. I tried to download 11.0.4.4 on cellular but I don't have a stable signal so it kept failing. Can someone please post the 11.0.4.4 download image and post a link. It would be most appreciated. I cannot find any other way to download it.
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] AlDollaz:
Not that I don't believe you, but OnePlus never did this before for rooted users. It seems odd that they'd start doing this now.
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] almahix:
It seems so. With an unpatched boot I can try to download, but with a patched boot it gives an error. I'm starting to lose my fondness for OnePlus.
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] sjgoel:
Agree, never experienced this earlier.
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] aieromon:
It looks like an increment update (593MB) and will not download for rooted devices. I was able to update on an unrooted device but keep getting error message on mine which is rooted.

I guess we have to wait for the full update zip.
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] sjgoel:
Yes, that was it. I had to MSM back to TMobile A10, unlock bootloader, convert to global A10, and then OTA to 11.0.4.4 - and then root.
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] AlDollaz:
Will wait for that full update. TY!

If you're using the global version you can use these, 11.0.4.4.IN21AA global kernels patched and stock, tested on an IN2010.

Stock: https://www.davesanthology.com/publ....IN21AA/11.0.4.4.IN21AA_boot_stock_IN2010.img

MD5: https://www.davesanthology.com/publ....IN21AA/11.0.4.4.IN21AA_boot_stock_IN2010.md5

Patched: https://www.davesanthology.com/publ...1.0.4.4.IN21AA_boot_magisk_patched_IN2010.img

MD5: https://www.davesanthology.com/publ...1.0.4.4.IN21AA_boot_magisk_patched_IN2010.md5

For any other version you can d/load and install with a rooted device if you temporarily remove root, I've just done it this way. This assumes you have a stock and patched boot.img for your current ROM available (either in Magisk as a backup image or somewhere else). 4.4 wouldn't download whist I had the patched kernel installed, yes a new OP method.

1. Disable (no need to delete) your Magisk modules (to be safe)

2. Flash the stock boot image (for the ROM you're currently using) in fastboot:

fastboot flash boot <stock_boot>.img

3. Reboot and test, just to be sure (you shouldn't have root)

4. Boot from the patched (root) boot image (for the ROM you're currently using) in fastboot:

fastboot boot <patched_boot>.img

5. Now you'll have root back but the stock image will still be installed

6. Download the update, if it's taking a long time hit pause them resume a couple of times

7. Install the update and DO NOT REBOOT!

8. Open Magisk and install via direct method and DO NOT REBOOT!

9. Install Magisk again but this time use install to inactive slot method

10. Reboot when prompted

11. Reenable your Magisk modules

Netflix 8.1.2 build 3844

View attachment 5218401

At the moment, the method of changing the ESN number is non-working!

Work on the problem of non-certified devices continues, new versions may appear in the future.​

Spoiler content hidden.
[Android Apps and Games] Dealaxer:
Netflix 2.0 build 295 for Widevine L3 (Only SD Quality)

Requirements:

-Any uncertified device by Netflix

-Security Level: Widevine L1 or Widevine L3

Changes:

-You can insert any ESN number

Before modifying, check and install the app, it is possible that everything will work on devices with Widevine L3 without changing the ESN number!
​

Modification instructions:

1. Download original apk: com.netflix.ninja-2.0_build_295.apk

2. Decompile the APK file with APKTOOL 2.5.0

3. Find out your ESN number in any way, such as using Kodi+Netflix plugin, etc.

4. Add your device's ESN number to the file BaseEsnProvider.smali:

The file is located in the directory: DECOMPILE_APK\smali\com\netflix\mediaclient\service\configuration\esn\

Spoiler content hidden.

Where "NFANDROID1-PRV-T-L3-SDMC=MBX4K=RANGER-9908-", insert your ESN number.

5. Compile the app using APKTOOL 2.5.0 and sign the app with any signature!

Good luck watching Netflix!
[Android Apps and Games] psycon:
I have tried my devices ESN from kodi (partial) it results in error 13. ( As does the official latest apk)
[Android Apps and Games] Dealaxer:
Write your ESN. Error 13 is only due to an incorrect ESN number. Also, your device must have the L1 level.
[Android Apps and Games] psycon:
The device does have widevine L1
[Android Apps and Games] Dealaxer:
Try this modification of the number:

NFANDROID1-PRV-0-GTV-...

or

NFANDROID1-PRV-GTV-...
[Android Apps and Games] Dealaxer:
For different devices, need to select correct ESN number. There is a different suffix/prefix for different devices, example:

# Unknown or Phone "PRV-P"
# Tablet? "PRV-T" (should be for tablet) / PRV-T-L3
# Tablet "PRV-C" (should be for Chrome OS devices only)
# Google TV "PRV-B" (Set-Top Box)
# Smart Display "PRV-E"
# Android TV "PRV-" (without letter specified) / PRV-0 or PRV-1 etc

and prefix: NFANDROID1 or NFANDROID2
[Android Apps and Games] psycon:
I was able to get this working . Test patterns showed both 720p and 1080p . Thank you!!!!!
[Android Apps and Games] Dealaxer:
I am sincerely happy for you! You can insert this modified ESN number into the app and use it instead of Kodi!
[Android Apps and Games] psycon:
Tested working.. part of me wonders if Netflix will block this partial ESN, as they have done in the past with similar ESN spoofs.
[Android Apps and Games] psycon:
Check pm please
[Android Apps and Games] Pixelhouse:
Thank you so much for this!
[Android Apps and Games] psycon:
As was pointed out to me,. You cannot just use any other devices ESN.. you have to use the one that belongs to your actual device., use the kodi Netflix addon which has a feature in its advanced settings to show your full or partial ESN.

To verify if your APK has worked Netflix has Test videos that will show you your current resolution and frame rate . Just search "test"

Please check your PMs as I have messaged you
[Android Apps and Games] Pixelhouse:
I fixed the post.

The ESN worked the only thing thats blurry to me is the interface text and logo. Everything else(series/movies) seems razorsharp.

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] psycon:
Thanks.. curious. What device u using
