Hi guys, has anyone been able to install Google TV Launcher on his firestick ? I tried to find some alternatives the old (and still good looking ) leanback launcher.

PS. I know the launcher itself needs an android 9+ device and firestick has (fireos 6) android 7.1

Unfortunately, the case I've used on my previous 2 phones (Nexus 6P & OP6) is not available for the 4a. Are there any other cases like Rhinoshield Crashguard bumper cases, in that it's literally a bumper on the edge, no back?
[Google Pixel 4a Accessories] Makishima:
You can find some on AliExpress.
[Google Pixel 4a Accessories] keyboardtalk:
Any advice for finding these on AliExpress? I've searched the site (and ebay as well) yet I cannot find any backless case.

The closest I get is cases marketing themselves as "bumper" cases, but they always have a transparent back.

Hmm it seems you're right, I hadn't noticed, sorry...

Hello,

I have a phone of this kind, running Android 4.2.2 (baseband version I9060XXUANG1), on which I would like to do some experiments.

I just inherited it from someone else, it is not my main phone, so it will not be hugely catastrophic if I ever brick it.

What do you think you can do with it ?

Sorry if I am posting this in the incorrect forum. This is my first posting,

Anyway, I have a T-Mobile HTC One S ville and have been trying to set s-off so I can install the Lineage ROM. I rooted and unlocked the phone and installed the CM-12.1 Rom without any problems. Unfortunately, when I tried to run the Sunshine app, I discovered (too late) that the phone must be running its stock rom or near-stock rom. After many attempts to find a stock rom, I successfully installed MaximusHD 10.0.0, but am unable to install the firmware, so I am unable to obtain a wifi connection due to authentication problems. I then tethered the phone to my laptop and was able to gain internet access, and the Sunshine app ran successfully for the first set of tests. When Sunshine attempted to run the next set of tests, it disconnected the tether. So I am stuck on how to proceed.

Here are the getvar readings:

You're in luck my friend, I'm in the same boat as you trying to get this thing running good to play some old Android games.

Let me know if you get S-Off, there seems to be carrier resrictions on our TMO devices. I've thought about extracting the ROM.zip of a Global RUU, and flashing it through fastboot manually, but don't want to brick my phone haha.
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] parakleet:
KB2007 Tmob 8T+5G

Rooted unlocked all has been well.

For the last couple of OTA I have uninstalled Magisk to restore the boot partitions and taken OTA without issue

Root once more all is well

With this latest OTA11.0.8.10.KB09CB I uninstalled Magisk

but fail on the OTA

Couldn't update installation problems

Fails immediately I don't believe it performs a download

Any thoughts?

ty

***********************************

Deleting what I considered bloatware(Native Oneplus apps) was the cause of the issue.

My solution was to perform a full restore using MSM recovery tool.

No issues taking OTA thereafter
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] 0wdj:
Exactly the same problem, I wonder if it's related to the fact that it's rooted or it's universal
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] parakleet:
Well i unrooted and could not take teh update.

im thinking of switching to another regional ROM to get updates and apply them myself
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] 0wdj:
When you were rooted did you uninstall some bloatware (like Chrome, community app etc...)?
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] parakleet:
I just completed a restore via the MSM tool.

Most awesome app.

Looking at all the bloatware I am quite sure I removed apps.

Which is a good reason to be the cause of the issues.

i have tytn II and i bought samsung wep200 bluetooth headset.. but i cant use it.. its not working.. when i trying to connect it, phone can see the headset but when i click connect it doesnt ask me the headset's password(normally it should ask).. but it connects however.. than i try to talk with it but its not working, phone's own speaker is working, not the headset..

i tried jetware bluetooth program, with this program.. it asks the password, but not working again...

any one know the solution, how can i fix this.. btw headset is working on other phones.. so its not broken..
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] nufsaid:
I have the wep500, mine connected out of box, to connect it to other phones (iphone/hermes/moto rockr) i've held down the power/talk button for about 10 seconds till the light was solid, then paired w/ code '0000' hope it helps.

probably, i'd try to get away from the one thats giving you problems.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dellandouv:
i flashed a new rom, but its not working either.. :(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] nufsaid:
Broken headset, pair w/ another phone to make sure...I had an ultra mini acouple of years ago that had the speaker die, explains not hearing anything but pairing.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] nufsaid:
if thats the case I recommend this headset. WEP500 it's bad ass.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dellandouv:
i already tried it at another phone and its working..
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] nufsaid:
...well it's not a software issue, try reflashing at least one more DIFFERENT rom on the phone and test, if that doesn't work it has to be a hardware issue.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dellandouv:
yea i think so, what rom would u suggest? i tried duttys 6,1 hybrid and Diamon throthle

[Moto G Play (2021)] dary1361:
I bought a Moto G Play 2021 unlocked from best buy yesterday. I can't enable "OEM unlocking" in Developer Settings. It is grayed out.

I factory reset a few times.

The phone CID is listed as a phone that can be unlocked on the Motorola site. I got the unlocking key from the Motorola site through a process that sends an email out with the key. Then I run <fastboot oem unlock "key">, but I get

(bootloader) Check 'OEM unlocking' in Android Settings > Developer

(bootloader) Options

FAILED (remote: '')

fastboot: error: Command failed

I don't think any fastboot command will work as long as the "OEM unlocking" is grayed out and disabled in settings.

Called Motorola. They offer no help.

I'm new to custom ROMs and having a hard time. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks
[Moto G Play (2021)] Lostbytes_xda:
I almost bought thru best buy and found out that Verizon/sprint was the service provider. So, I went and bought unlocked at amazon. Hopefully, not what happened to you... There was something about greyed out oem unlocking on this phone somewhere here in XDA. Do a search.
[Moto G Play (2021)] sd_shadow:
Not that unusual.

Sometimes there's a time delay, and required connection to WiFi or LTE.

Also sometimes a factory reset will ungray the OEM unlock toggle.

I suggest a factory reset, then connect to wifi if it's still grayed out, it may take a few days to change.

Also you can check the CID code list in my Bootloader unlock thread.

https://xdaforums.com/general/rooting-roms/guide-flashing-motorola-firmware-t4042039
[Moto G Play (2021)] dary1361:
Tried XDA and elsewhere. They have solutions I have already tried above. Thanks
[Moto G Play (2021)] dary1361:
Tried factory reset. Tried with and without Wifi after factory reset. I don't have a sim for it yet. So can't get LTE.

Can't find a "CID code" list in your post. Do you mean a list with CID's that lets you know if your phone can be unlocked? I found my CID is allowed for unlocking on Motorola's site.

Do you know why a delay might work? You think there is a timer or something for unlocking?

Thanks
[Moto G Play (2021)] sd_shadow:
There's a link in my Bootloader unlock thread, to the official cid list, you likely have seen already.

I don't know if wifi/lte is needed just going by what has been reported in the forums for last few years.

You can wait or return the device, there isn't any other options that I know of.
[Moto G Play (2021)] dary1361:
How many days should I wait before returning the phone? Is there any way to know before buying which ones are bootloader unlocked?
[Moto G Play (2021)] sd_shadow:
I've seen anywhere from mins to a couple of days reported, No pattern that I can see.

Factory reset, and connecting to the internet seem to help.

You could try Flash rescue with LMSA, but I haven't seen replies that helps.

If the CID is good, and you can get the unlock code from moto site, I don't know what else could be the issue.
[Moto G Play (2021)] dary1361:
So after three days, I did another factory reset. Nothing changed. I then used the KingRoot app. I clicked on Root, it didn't give me a confirmation. But when I went to the Developer Settings I could enable "OEM unlocking"!!! I then used <fastboot oem unlock "key"> on the bootloader and the device is unlocked now. Can't find twrp or any ROMs for this device though :(
[Moto G Play (2021)] skullhair:
I can confirm a three day time gate on the Moto G Play 2021 I got through T-Mobile Monday. The OEM Unlock has been greyed out since I first booted. Today, Thursday, after the 72 hour window, the toggle became accessable.
[Moto G Play (2021)] Austinredstoner:
Is it a Verizon phone asking because since Verizon doesn't allow bootloader to be unlocked it could be reason why
[Moto G Play (2021)] Moondroid:
Weirdly (or absurdly), yesterday I found a Lenovo forum post that says it might take up to a week to get OEM Unlock. I posted on it (here) to see if anybody else has had the same experience that I'm still in the middle of -- THREE days, on WiFi, still no unlock.

Strange(r) thing is the "advice" from Moto/Lenovo in the link relates to a 3-year-old phone. I bought a Moto G6 (carrier-unlocked & BL-unlockable -6) in mint condition, updated to latest Pie (April 2020 security patch).

But maybe the G6/plus/play is just extra-odd? I've owned and rooted or unlocked 6-8 Moto phones (see my sig, not a complete list) and I've never in the past waited more than a few minutes to get OEM Unlock enabled. And all it took with my lady's Moto G Stylus '21 was making a WiFi connection, as has been super-typical for me.

I guess I'm just babbling out of frustration. Seems this mystery only gets weirder.

Edit to add, your last comment addresses one niddly little question I put forth in my post linked above . . . my CID (0x032) says the phone is unlockable, and I already got the unlock code from Moto. Is there ANY other detail, in getvar or anywhere, that might reveal that a phone is NOT unlockable?
[Moto G Play (2021)] sd_shadow:
The CID is the only thing to look at, that I know of.

Usually, OEM unlock is available within 3 days, but some have reported a couple of weeks.

Factory Reset seems to help if it's been over 3 days, but you will need to reconnect to the internet.
[Moto G Play (2021)] Moondroid:
Thanks man. I haven't tried FDR yet, afraid of starting the countdown all over again. But if I don't get unlock in the next day or two I'll give it a shot.

Edit-- I was wondering as much as anything if maybe this phone could be an unlockable Amazon variant that had been blasted with stock firmware to hide the fact. But I don't even know how that could be done.
[Moto G Play (2021)] sd_shadow:
If it was an Amazon version the CID would be different.

The getvar all will have the software channel and other info

fastboot getvar all
[Moto G Play (2021)] Moondroid:
Ah ok. Yeah I ran getvar all yesterday, found the CID and confirmed I'm on RetUS channel. Much obliged sd_shadow, as always, you're a super-reliable source of help and info here on XDA.
[Moto G Play (2021)] sd_shadow:
You're on RetUS so you should be good, if unlocking was blocked it would be the Amazon channel

Do you have gaumna?

Amazon isn't even listed on lolinet.

That doesn't mean there isn't an Amazon channel, but it's not likely.

[Moto G Play (2021)] Moondroid:
Nope, never even heard of it that I recall. What is it?
[Moto G Play (2021)] sd_shadow:

[Moto G Play (2021)] Moondroid:
Ooooh dang. I mangled this convo. Clarification, the Moto G Stylus (not Play) is my lady's phone. The phone I'm currently struggling with is a G6 (unlocked version XT1925-6). That one is Ali. Her Stylus is codename Minsk. I unlocked and rooted her Stylus (via Magisk patch) months ago, no problems there. Serious apologies for channeling down the wrong road in this thread.
[Moto G Play (2021)] sd_shadow:
No worries, which device it is shouldn't matter, unlocking moto devices has been the same for last 5 years or so.

I just like details to compare to.
[Moto G Play (2021)] Moondroid:
Same here. It's all an education.
[Moto G Play (2021)] Moondroid:
Factory reset most likely won't help ungray OEM Unlock. I tried that, 6 days later I'm still waiting. Current advice in at least one of the Lenovo forums is 7 days, with a data connection, but to me that sounds like nothing but a seat-of-the-pants guess. ("Try it." So much for "expert advice".) You got an update, so you've already connected at least for that.

Tomorrow will be a full week for me since I tried the FDR. If I get OEM Unlock tomorrow I'll be sure to notify this thread in particular, and probably one or two others.

[Moto G Play (2021)] MeoDeus:
Hi, I'm having this same problem mentioned in all the comments above, did anyone manage to solve it?

My device is a G9 Play XT2083-1
[Moto G Play (2021)] Moondroid:
Not having the G9 but having fought with a G6 and G Stylus 2021, the best advice I can offer is to factory-reset your phone, and then in Setup make sure your Wireless is On. I don't know if it actually has to connect to the Net or not ** (some do, some don't), just make sure WiFi is turned on. Then go through settings -- don't need to actually do any of the setup, just get through it. Then enable Dev Optons and check to see if OEM Unlock is enabled. If not, try waiting a day or two. Some report that that actually works. For me it's typically all been about connecting to the Internet, either during setup or after.

** I include that caviat because I use MAC filtering, so no device will actually connect to Internet without the MAC address being entered in my router first. In the case of my lady's Stylus 2021, simply turning on WiFi without an actual Internet connection was enough to get OEM unlock.

If all above fails, you might also try to manually check for a software update. This works well for some other branded phones. You should not have to actually do the update, just run the check. Then see if you have OEM Unlock. If not, power off and on, setup (with WiFi on) and check again for OEM Unlock.

Good luck!!! The newer phones get, the more luck we need it seems.
[Moto G Play (2021)] MeoDeus:
the problem is that it doesn't start or install another rom because of the locked bootloader, i couldn't even with a newer rom that as i knew i didn't need an unlocked bootloader and the rescue and smart wizard gives a bootloader flash error with 50%

I think I can't do anything else, the only way is to look for an authorized one and spend a high amount to repair it
[Moto G Play (2021)] Moondroid:
When you say "another rom" you mean G9 firmware? And you've tried Rescue with the LMSA (Lenovo) tool?

Have you tried reflashing your current firmware via adb? You can reflash any officlal G9 firmware using adb, unlocked or not. If you don't know how to do that, I suggest scouring the G9 forums. All firmware is at least a little different, and I don't have the phone. Look or ask here:

Moto G9 Play (G9 India)

The Moto G9 Play is a 6.5" phone with a 720x1600p resolution display. The Qualcomm SM6115 Snapdragon 662 chipset is paired with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. The main camera is 48+2+2MP and the selfie camera is 8MP. The battery has a 5000mAh capacity.

xdaforums.com
[Moto G Play (2021)] MeoDeus:
I've used lenovo's LMSD but it gives error "Fastboot Flash Single Partition" and I've tried using adb with the same rom I had in "fastboot getvar all" and gives "(bootloader) flash permission denied", other files that don't need to go through the bootloader install normally but everything that needs the bootloader fails
[Moto G Play (2021)] MeoDeus:
I learned that lenovo/motorola has online assistance that might solve this but it's expensive and if it doesn't work out the way is to change the cell phone's motherboard, which will be even more expensive

From what I've seen even the moto g8 has blank flash file but for mine it doesn't or I couldn't find it, and I can't unlock the bootloader through adb because it needs to enable oem unlock in the developer options since I don't even have a way to enter the system

I believe I have given a gigantic hard brick to my device
[Moto G Play (2021)] Moosetears:
I had an issue with this too. I did the recovery tool around 90 times to no avail. I finally got it to work by turning off the switch on my usb hub and pressing it again instead of connecting it to the phone port. Is it possible you are using a HUB instead of directly plugged into your computer?

Might mean nothing but that was the only thing I can think of for it to work after trying at least 30 times.
[Moto G Play (2021)] Moosetears:
So I was unable to get the OEM unlock to ungray. I had phone for more than a week and have done multiple factory resets. I have a firewall that blocks connections and I disabled some stuff trying to debloat the phone. I was wondering what package might be responsible for unlocking it or a particular connection that my firewall is blocking.

Thanks
[Moto G Play (2021)] mario0318:
I would just take the risk and allow all system apps bypass the firewall. Because ultimately I would not have the slightest clue to which package is responsible for that particular transmission, which could potentially be a few bytes in size or maybe the task is shared by more than one system package.

Have you had the firewall enabled and blocking all connections from day one?
[Moto G Play (2021)] jaaschutz:
Hello, are we still stuck with just waiting this out for Moto G Stylus 2021 "OEM Unlocking" to ungrey? I feel like the Shizuku fix was onto something but the mod deleted the references. Did not have this problem with Moto G Stylus 2020.
[Moto G Play (2021)] Moondroid:
Did you try factory-resetting and running Setup with WiFi turned on AND connected to an access point? Internet connection does matter with Samsung and others but I'm not sure if it matters with Moto. But at the very least, make sure it's turned on AND select an access point and enter a password if needed.

Don't know what the Shizuku method is (and bad headache at present so no hunting for me atm) but the tried-and-true Samsung method is this (JUST A GUESS, maybe it will work on a Moto):

1. Make sure Developer Options is enabled.

2. In Settings, disable automatic Time and Date.

3. Manually set the date at least 8 days earlier.

4. Turn on Wifi and make sure it connects to Internet.

5. Go to Settings > manual updates (whatever it's called on your phone) and Check for Update. If there is one, ignore it, all you needed to do was touch the update server. Cancel/back out.

6. Check Dev Options to see if Unlock is enabled. If not, Reboot the phone and check again.

This method has worked on every Galaxy phone I've tried it on, plus at least one HTC, from Nougat to Pie.
[Moto G Play (2021)] sd_shadow:
Yes, most Moto devices will not allow OEM unlocking until it's connected to the internet.

It can take 3-15+ days, results are all over the place for Moto users.
[Moto G Play (2021)] ForForkSake:
A few weeks ago it took bang on 48 hours from when I received my unlock code..

. I set the phone up 30 mins prior but also checked oem 30 mins before.

It matched exactly with email.. Was for Edge 20 lite

Which I ended up smashing on Thursday...

So I purchased a new one and I am waiting again...

The unlock email arrived nearly 29 hours ago (British summer time)
