48 hrs since setting up and still grey. Will try again at 48 hrs from email. Not feeling confident though... Hope it wasn't just a coincidence last time

Yep rebooted and it appeared wooop
[Moto G Play (2021)] stoag:
The toggle will happen each time you reset the phone. Be sure if you reset again to use mobile data for setup, rather than WiFi and you shouldn't have to wait at all.

At least, that has been my experience with MetroPCS Motorola phones.

FYI

this is for all Motorola devices

All the Brand new phone OEM will gray out for a bout a week.

Its stated by LENOVO MOTOROLA on their forum.

It requires internet connection for a week before the gray out disappear

[Moto G Play (2021)] praun.constantin@gmail.co:
I bought a Moto g Play 2021 from Amazon with the Xfinity logo at launch.

I set the mobile accordingly and read the bootloader unlock code.

I went to the Motorola website and followed the instructions.

But in the end, the unlock code is not sent to me by email.

A blank page appears with an error message. (There has been an error with your request.)

Any solution?
[Moto G Play (2021)] mxz55:
I'm experiencing the same problem with Motorola Edge 30 (dubai, XT2203-1) which is a device i bought yesterday for the sole purpose of installing a custom ROM on it, LineageOS. In my case, it has no sim lock and is bought separately in NL without any ties to a specific carrier or branding.

It's a little sad that Motorola almost got it right to be a development friendly brand, they just make it harder for someone to buy a device because they want to run a custom ROM, as from what I'm reading here people need to wait for quite a while, letting the device in standby with full internet access (which im now forced to do, without using it) for an unknown amount of days, with some people saying it doesn't ever seem to unlock.

Of course i completed the "Motorola unlock code request" procedure, i got the valid code but without OEM unlocking being toggled in Developer options, fastboot in bootloader doesn't let you use it in fastboot oem unlock "code". In this scenario, you will notice the following failures:

> fastboot oem unlock
(bootloader) usage: fastboot oem unlock < unlock code >
FAILED (remote: '')
fastboot: error: Command failed

Then your next instinct is to get the unlock code from Motorola, and use it in oem unlock:

fastboot oem unlock [YOUR UNLOCK CODE]
(bootloader) Check 'OEM unlocking' in Android Settings > Developer
(bootloader) Options
FAILED (remote: '')
fastboot: error: Command failed

At this point we know however, that said option in Developer options is greyed out due to the roadblocks that Motorola put on it.

I hope that in my case it will become toggle'able in 3 days, or.. that someone has another workaround to try. If it doesn't become toggle'able in a couple days, i might return the device for a refund because i expected a developer/custom ROM friendly device, not one that for any reason goes into a panic mode & locks this stuff on day 1. I'm just disappointed, even though i expect it to be a great device for custom ROMs like the LineageOS 20 im planning to get onto it as soon this issue passes by for me.

I've tried all of that btw.. and also i attempted the date manipulation workaround, without results.
[Moto G Play (2021)] mxz55:
Following my last post, i contacted Motorola support, doing everything in my power to get past Tier-1.. that worked, they escalated it, but then i got a reply back that they are unwilling to send the "all clear" signal (they had asked for my IMEI number) while others say they were able to expedite the wait. They say it's not supposed to happen and that the waiting period is 10 days from the initial device setup, for 'security reasons', which would clearly be that they wanna prevent shopkeepers from preloading devices with all sorts of bs before selling them. Consumers shouldn't be dealing with these restrictions, but they are. There should at least be a working process to get rid of it.

So my final POV is, Motorola almost got it right when it comes to being a ROM/developer friendly brand, they just lack here. If you're gonna buy a Moto to use a custom ROM, buy used (or don't perform a factory reset, if what i read up here about the lock being put in place from resetting is true..), or be ready for the bootloader lock waiting period before you can get started. I'd almost send back my device on principle grounds, Motorola should know they aren't very service oriented towards advanced users, and they foiled the plans i had.

The situation discussed in this topic clearly applies to all Motorola phones, even after the Moto G from 2021. I still wonder if someone will find a bypass to show the finger to this "security measure" that is bugging us.

// Late Edit (i was too lazy for this feedback till now):

Unlock happened within 24 hours of this post. So, in total it took 3 days for the process to complete on its own. Now we know that the OEM lock on Moto Edge 30 is just 72 hours..

I immediately proceeded to install LineageOS 20 for Edge 30 and have been happily using it since.
[Moto G Play (2021)] dcluvsme:
Same problem here. Just be patient, "OEM unlocking" will unlock in about 6 or 7 days. Mine unlocked this morning.

It seems Moto wants to be sure the device is not stolen or whatever???? Hence the ' connect to internet" message.

Good luck.
[Moto G Play (2021)] dcluvsme:
Just give it time. Mine took 6 days to unlock. Just connect to internet, and be patient.

"wherever you go, there you are"
[Moto G Play (2021)] mxz55:
It's to do at least something for disrupting store owners that intend to pre-install all sort of ROMs/sponsored bloatware on devices (or even malicious stuff) before a customer walks in and buys it. I think they target some smaller indian/turkish telecom shops in western countries, they're already used to tinkering with software on request.

Btw, my Motorola Edge 30 got unlocked in 72 hours, i edited my previous post. I agree patience is the only way to go, and the duration for automatic unlock seems to be different per device
[Moto G Play (2021)] quiote:
several resets didn't fix my oem lock problem and I bought the unlocked version of the phone. I did, however, just learn that there's a custom ROM on this phone that I did not install. Thank you for responding to op with a link, sd_shadow. I'm going to check it out, too.

[Moto G Play (2021)] DeadSilent001:
once you connect your device to the internet be it by wifi or cellular service the oem unlocking will not be greyed out any longer
[Moto G Play (2021)] Moondroid:
Used to be true, going back a few years. No longer. If you read all of this thread you'll be informed that plenty of us have connected and stayed connected for several days with no result.
[Moto G Play (2021)] eried1:
Yeah. Not very wise. Apparently you should just connect to wifi when the phone is doing the initial setup. If skipped it often seems you have to wait.
[Moto G Play (2021)] eried1:
Then Lenovo has made progress. For my P2 bought in 2017 the official waiting time was two weeks. I liked that approach though since you got a countdown in developer options which revealed the exact time when BL could be unlocked.
[Moto G Play (2021)] Moondroid:
Strange that anybody could say "progress" on this particular issue, but I never tried unlocking a P2 (not even sure what that is). My must-have-wifi-to-unlock experiences started with the Moto X4, a 2018 phone with Oreo. But with that phone, connecting to wifi gave me oem unlock right away. No wait at all.

I digress, but unlocking these newer phones is such an irritation . . . doesn't make any kind of sense to us peons.

[LG Velvet Questions & Answers] t1moc:
Hi,

LG has an "optional" agreement to its phone upgrade agreements. The 'optional' agreement(s) give LG permission to have full permissions to my information, the contents of the phone, etc., and to transfer whatever they want to their own legal jurisdiction - essentially bypassing/ignoring EU privacy laws. There is no plausible reason given for this 'optional' transfer agreement, regardless, the interface will not let you perform an update unless you agree to the 'optional' transfer agreement. Even though i know better, i considered the idea that it may be related to the wireless update mechanism, so i installed and used the windows update tool. I was surprised and annoyed to get *exactly* the same set of agreements with the 'optional' all your basez belong to LG agreement, that you *must* agree to to get an update.

The LG Velvet 5g is my second LG phone, i had the same problem with my previous phone. I thought it was a one off thing, now i know better. It continued to bug me with 'software update' click-through with optional (not optional) agreement interface.

The fact of the matter then is that 'optional' agreements are essentially required. Optional seems to be a legal fiction used to imply that a user made an 'informed decision' to give LG these privacy breaking permissions. This is demonstrably false, as you cannot proceed with any update without agreeing to give LG legal authority to your information. That this is a feature and not a bug is proven by the fact that the same 'optional' is not optional behavior is the same across multiple devices and platforms (android +windows).

In summary 'optional', even in legal terms, means that the agreement does not require it to go forward, but in every LG click through agreement interface that contains 'optional' agreements, require the selection to continue. If this was the US, that would be a class action lawsuit right there....

I have no interest in that. I want to use the phone i bought, i want to have updates, but i do not want to be forced to give LG the authority to ignore EU privacy laws to do it.

Am i missing something? Is there an option or something that enables you to give informed consent?
[LG Velvet Questions & Answers] kevinmcmurtrie:
Few device makers haven't yet jumped on the spyware and trashy ads bandwagon. I bought an LG TV and it has turned on data collection a couple of times without permission. It literally samples its internal video stream and uploads it for content matching, even from OTA and HDMI ports. Next time I file an official report (California laws).

The good news is that you can disable much of the spyware, including Google Apps, on your phone using ADB. Their TVs, ovens, air conditioners, and other Internet-of-Junk can simply not be given Internet access.

Mercari.com, If you've ever used Reverb.com for used musical instruments, it'll be familiar it's got exactly he same layout and rules etc. I managed to snag literally a brand new one, with the protective plastic film still on both the outside screen the the inside screen and even the backing of the regular case part for 93$ on there.

I have to be honest, with the extreme batt drain inherent with V60 dual screen....along with the risks with needlessly stressing the V60 USB-c port (due to the flexing of the dual case USB-c intermediary adapter, the one mounted at bottom of dual case, not the magnetic external) I'm not seeing why anyone would want to move forward with the V60 dual case. Best to just bag it, too many problems.

I'm sorry to say it's a terrible dual case design really

Seriously, dual screen adds so little and the battery life is SO much better using as a single phone anyway.

Just bought a mint condition dual screen case from busted crates on ebay. Less than $50 shipped. Soonersoft has some, too. I bought from both companies before and they're really reputable. This is probably the fourth case I've bought after breaking three of them. For the last year or so I haven't even bothered, I just put the phone itself in an OtterBox case. But I've missed having the extra screen so that I can use my phone more like a computer. Don't know if you're familiar with Kydex. It's a moldable thermoplastic. For this last case, I made a protector for the front cover. I never understood why they didn't make the front cover out of something Unbreakable since it really only displays the time.

Have successfully flashed to a my Australian one without issue and retained the unlocked bootloader

I paid a months subscription for SamMobile to get the new OneUI 3.1/Android 11 firmware - I'm running lineage 18.1 but I really miss the Atmos DSP, and HD Netflix, so am going back to stock.

After installing Button Mapper i was hoping to map the worthless Google Play red button to the SmartTube app this way when i press the large red button it then jumps to the more useful app. I find Button Mapper works 50% of the time. I also notice once i tap the button i can see the remote signal constantly transmitting to the television non-stop. I have to tap any other non-mapped button just to get the transmission to stop.

Anyone experience the same issues?
