[Moto G7 Play Questions & Answers] veryspecialagent:
I searched and didn't see anything that relates to my specific problem.

I have a 1952-4 that I rooted per instructions on here (Magisk). I dropped it and broke the screen about 9 months ago and just fixed it today...and I can't remember my pattern. I'm up to 50 tries, so now I have to wait 120 seconds before it lets me try the next one.

Since the root process requires you to reboot recovery for root, doing that just sends it to the normal lock screen. When I hit Vol Down/Power, my options on the bootloader screen are:

-Start

-Restart Bootloader

-Recovery Mode (restarts it, sends to lockscreen)

-Power Off

-Factory Mode (restarts, sends to lockscreen)

-Barcodes

-BP Tools (restarts, back to lockscreen)

-QCOM (restarts, back to lockscreen)

-Bootloader Logs

-Switch Tools Mode (enables/disables "Tool Mode Config" option on the bootloader screen)

My computer beeps the "something USB has been plugged in" chime when I connect it, but it doesn't pull up in File Explorer (unless it's off, but just shows that a USB drive has been connected but won't pull up anything when I click on it), nor can I connect through ADB. It's not a cable/USB port issue either as ADB finds my Note 8 when I plug it in and check via "adb devices."

Can't wipe it via Find my Phone either because it's been 270 days since my account pinged the phone, so it just shows up as "Android" device.

Any suggestions on how to either get my computer/ADB to recognize it (with root) so I can just delete the lock database, or how I can factory reset it? Am I forgetting a reboot option?

Thanks in advance.

[Moto G7 Play Questions & Answers] veryspecialagent:
Yeah. It should remember this phone, since I used this computer to root it when I first got it a year and a half ago.

I used a different cable and got it to pick up the phone (as an unknown device) in Windows but NOT ADB, and the phone to realize it was connected (see last line on phone screen) but they're not talking.

If I boot it all the way up, either regular or recovery (root), it doesn't show at all on my computer.

Like I said, I'd be fine with wiping it, but can't even get to that option.

Install the moto drivers. If that doesn't work then make sure your using a usb2 port and not a usb3 port as its a known issue with moto phones.

I just ordered a new OEM cable.

Also ordered an OTG cable to see if I can force it to startup into a different mode that'll allow me to do something with it.

I'll update this thread once I'm able to test them out.
[Moto G7 Play Questions & Answers] veryspecialagent:
I got a new cable. My USB ports are not labeled, and my Moto drivers reinstalled.

After rebooting to the recovery screen, I plugged it in and apparently I have fastboot. I checked the bootloader logs and it says:

AP Fastboot Flash Mode (Secure)

Fastboot Reason: Volume down key pressed

USB connected

Windows doesn't pick up anything connected by USB. I can't restart to get root because then adb doesn't pick up the phone either because of the screenlock preventing me from hitting ok to trust my computer.

I'm asking the following because I can't find answers: Can you delete the screen lock file with the only bridge being fastboot, not adb. How can I do a factory reset if rebooting to recovery is our normal way of turnin gon the device with root access? Or would reflashing something work?

command line commands are a perishable skill and it's been a couple years since I did this stuff.

Thanks in advance.
[Moto G7 Play Questions & Answers] veryspecialagent:
To recap, I either need to be able to get into the directory to delete the pattern lock, or factory reset the phone.

I've tried the pattern lock 79 times, which means I have to wait 300+ seconds between tries. I think an error is causing that though.

Fastboot is my only option at this point as far as using commands goes. Rebooting recovery just reboots it with root permissions, but neither adb or Windows 10 picks it up. Using a brand new factory cord and tried every USB port on my computer, even the USB-C to USB-C. But I can't find anywhere that shows how to get into the directory using fastboot.

In Device Manager, I've been getting an error with Android ADB Interface (The device cannot start; Code 10). I uninstalled, reinstalled various drivers, killed adb.exe, etc., Still happening.

HOWEVER, Motorola ADB Interface is working just fine and goes away when I unplug my phone, returns when I plug it in. Only when it's in recovery/fastboot mode though.

I got into Safe Mode, but computer won't pick it up.

I can't get into Field Test Mode. I did reboot it into something else. I don't know what, but the screen was off and the home button was illuminated. EDL mode? I don't know. Neither my computer or adb read that anything was attached, and i can't figure out how I did it.

I also tried sideloading some pattern lock removers, but apparently you can't do that in fastboot.

Thoughts?
[Moto G7 Play Questions & Answers] veryspecialagent:
Just to close this out with a solution: I had forgotten that in order to get to the recovery menu, you have to hold the buttons when you reboot recovery. Didn't realize that until I was rooting my Moto e6.

Factory reset complete. No more pattern lock. Though since I've now tried rooting it 4 times with 4 different images and have not succeeded even though I had root before all this, I wish I could have realized the above and possibly gotten in and deleted the gesture.

Lesson learned.
[Moto G7 Play Questions & Answers] onefstfoknv6:
Hold what buttons? I'm afraid I'm in same spot.
[Moto G7 Play Questions & Answers] sd_shadow:
Volume up button and power button
[Moto G7 Play Questions & Answers] onefstfoknv6:
Just found this. Timing is everything apparently.

Press and hold the Volume Down and Power buttons simultaneously until the Android Recovery screen appears.

Press the Volume Down button to navigate to Recovery.

With Recovery displayed, press the Power button.

When you see the 'Droid' with 'No Command,' hold Power and tap Volume Up just once and immediately release both buttons.

Scroll to wipe data/factory reset by pressing the Volume Down button

Press the Power button.

Scroll to YES by pressing the Volume Down button.

Press the Power button.

The 'phone will wipe all contents.

Press the Power button.

The 'phone will now reboot to the initial setup screen.

Its like stuck looping(not boot loading loop)

Just looping menu command... and I can't hit buttons not even well placed pushh button timeing or nothing...

First thing I checked was if button stuck wasn't. even swabed with alcohol. clean..

Its seems like the program ? Any ideas im relatively new to it but is easyer then chiping a counsel this is my error screen video any suggestions

I used 3 and ovation twarps and tried gapps

Also tried the other wrong ones humming n such js this one is 7.1 i don't even mind useing 5.1 but haveing trouble also finding matching links from one source and dl list of 3 from 3 diffrent sources...so idk my goal was almost kinda 5.1 but will take any suggestion to get out of this loop [menu looping toggle...]
[Nook HD, HD+ General] Burning nook:
Up date i figerd out if I take out the sd card wile cyano boot screen is runing it stops the menu scroll looping it some times takes 30 seconds or a 1min for it to stop scrolling upon sdcard removal I can then select a boot menu loader option but since sd aint in I can't actually initiate any of boots menu commands

My throy ?? Something was wrong with my zips files of ovation.. or other file so when it registers as blank it or unreconisable unofficial or plane a recovery file?? It just loops the menu as if its a empty load other then the boot so it knows it has no zips or files and just loops as if nothing to do why it says that rainbow stuff ?? I suppose and I now realize I think the other file was a simple md5 and not the other zip just a note theroy for others who may run into this problem...also this inst to say it will work just my next test is just simply 2 diffrent zip files

Of the hd plus nook kind that I have or my iso or rom is the older of the 3 I could find for 5.1 and mistakenly ran it with new ovation n other zip file so I wiped recoverd and will try a clean run of 7.1 or latest Tamara...i think that sums up my self analysis hopefully my mistakes r 2 ur benefit will update after next run

Phone model: Samsung Galaxy A71 SM-A715F/DS

Recently updated to One UI 3.1, Android 11, Google play update March 1 2021

Country: Philippines

As the title says, my phone out of nowhere couldn't detect any 5ghz on wifi. I don't know how long this has been because I don't check what wifi I'm connected to. As long as I was connected, I wasn't worried. But today I discovered it's been connecting to the 2.4 band of my wifi.

We have lots of other devices in the house and all of them detect the 5ghz band. all of them have no connection issues with that. only this phone. I'm not sure if this has something to do with the recent update, but I have a feeling it's because of that.

Things I've already tried:

Restarting the router.

Restarting my phone several times.

Restarting my phone in safe mode. still nada.

Wiping cache partition in recovery mode.

resetting network settings (using the reset option in settings)

disabling vpns/adguards etc.

enabling option in hotspot to prefer 5g bands.

All of them and still nothing. The only thing I haven't tried is doing hard reset or factory reset because I got lots of important stuff and settings already in my phone. I hope it won't get to that point.

Please help, seriously. Thanks very much!

Copy this into the dialer *#*#4636#*#*. Under Testing go to Phone Info. Next go to the option " Set Preferred Network" and from the drop down choose "LTE only". This will force the phone to only connect to the 4G network with the one drawback being that it will drain the battery a little bit more. Hopefully it helps.

Hey guys,

Can any of you experts answer my question below and let me and others be satisfied with it?

I am just worried and want to know after rooting any of my devices, leads to risks in making any types of payments. Be it NFC or via any banking apps.

Also, not only payments, but any user data and access to system files related to security.

Does the above still applies after an un-root is done?
[General Topics] Jman420:
This may help point you in the right direction : https://xdaforums.com/t/discussion-root-selinux-risks.3607295/#post-84740171

Keep in mind that is a fairly technical discussion and you are expected to weigh the risks vs benefits of your own scenario. And what you end up doing with the unlocked bootloader and root access will impact that risk.
[General Topics] :
All payment / banking apps are smart enough to detect whether Android got rooted or not.
[General Topics] Twodogsfighting:
Is that the case with magisk as well now?
[General Topics] :
YES.

Pre-March-2020 situation:

THE SAFETYNET ATTESTION API QUERIES CTS PROFILE ON ANDROID DEVICE.

With Magisk ( i.e. Magisk Hide ) it was possible to intercept this query and redirect it to a faked CTS Profile.

Actual situation:

THE SAFETYNET ATTESTION API NOW NO LONGER QUERIES CTS PROFILE ON ANDROID DEVICE BUT SUCH ONE STORED ON GOOGLE SERVERS BY OEM/CARRIER.

Magisk can't prevent this, means it can't intercept this query.

Take note that the developer of Magisk has already adnitted that!

My POV:

The cat-and-mouse game has ended. OEMs/Carriers have won. Magisk Hide became senseless.

Rooting (Android) - Wikipedia

To sum up. Depends how much security you remove and how you allow the root software that gets installed, admin privileges. Just don't have the prompt on auto, so then you can allow app privileges manually.

Also, my diamond sometime will inadvertently change the time. When I verify the default time zone, everything seems ok, but inexplicably it will fall back two hours. Its happened several times now and I just can't seem to be able to find the reason for it.
