ok I compared the highlighted firmware from lolinet.com and the actual LMSA firmware (downloaded automatically) they look the same, also I see Fastboot_Mot_V1 not sure what's that for

my question is should I flash the LMSA firmware (downloaded automatically) with Fastboot_Mot_V1 or should I replace it with lolinets firmware? Just making sure

I just reflashed stock firmware, rooted stock, backed up apn config.xml file.

Flashed [ROM][CrDroid][11][UNOFFICIAL][RAV*/SOFIA*][7.X]

Replaced apn config.xml file. system/product/ect.

still no lte

Tried same process but with [ROM][RAV*/SOFIA*][10][UNOFFICIAL] LineageOS 17.1

same no Lte
[Moto G Power Questions & Answers] tcaudill01:
Does LTE show on stock? From Lineage or CrDroid were you able to find where you add or change the son? From either one, have you tried *#*#4636#*#* from the dial pad? You can change a lot of network specific things from there. You could try changing different band combinations to see if you can get a connection. You can also see what towers you are connecting to.

Did some searching and looks like other Sprint users had the same issue.

Hello,

So as ATT plans to kill my Huawei Mate 20 x I am forced to change phones and well, there is really nothing big in the market aside from the fold 2 which I did not love.

So, I am considering the S21 Ultra at least to get a nice set of cameras with this forced upgrade.

How are you guys liking the phone...any recent feedback based on new firmware upgrades is welcome

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
No SD card slot. That means no data drive or easy factory resets.

Rounded display corners ugly it up bad... a weak offering from Sammy.

Go with a used Note 10+512gb Snapdragon or a new Note 20U.

Drop dead gorgeous displays. A used 10+ in excellent condition can be had for $650 at B&H Photo, a trusted vendor.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] varcor:
The S21 Ultra, Hong Kong variant (SM-G9980, CSC - TGY) is a great option for a number of reasons. Snapdragon SoC, recieves updates directly from Samsung sooner than US branded devices, no carrier bloatware, dual sim's, unlocked bootloader, none of which are available on the AT&T device. If call features and a warranty are a priority buy AT&Ts device but without a MicroSD and only 256GB (200GB usable) consider if that works for you. AT&T doesn't offer the 512GB any longer but the Hong Kong device still does at select retailers.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] shaolin95:
We may be jumping to Tmobile since they have the Samsung buy one get one free deal. But looks like my phone WILL work on Tmobile so we may not even need to swap phones.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] SyCoREAPER:
(Not a flex)

I've had the S10+, S10 5G, S20 Ultra and now S21 Ultra. I can confidently say I love the S21 Ultra and will be keeping this one. A bit annoyed there is no SD card but it's not a huge issue, just use Google drove to back up crucial files and no MST. Was nice to have but even where I live they are adding NFC everywhere.

100% recommend this phone. Fixed all the issues I had with the S20 Ultra. Updates have been good (except this month). Firmware updates have also ironed out the bugs
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Misterxtc:
I traded in a rooted Note 20 Ultra for a stock S21 Ultra about three months ago and have zero regrets. I'm not a fan of the case selection for the Note series and don't care for the sharp corners or pen.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
Zizo Bolt case for the Notes. Excellent protection and it enhances usability.

I rarely use the spen but there's no substitute when I need it.

Smart Select is great.

It's write on jpeg feature is fast and easy.

It's remote shutter release is very useful.

No SD card means you're boned when doing a factory reset especially if you have a large data base. It makes reloads needlessly awkward and time consuming at best.

It would take hours to reload my data base alone.

These phones now support 1tb cards, a Lexar .5 tb V30 cards are $65 now. An SD card slot is a no brainer if you use it as intended, as a data drive with a fast, high capacity SD card.

By storing copies of your apps and updates on the card you no longer need Playstore to load them after a reset. That saves time and ensures you get exactly the apps and version you want.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] techbrutha:
What was your experience with your rooted Note 20 Ultra? I just purchased a used Note 20 Ultra on eBay today and hope the bootloader is unlockable to possibly root. I use a rooted Note 8 running Oreo right now and, with the way I configured it, is an awesome phone. However, the processor sucks DragonBalls. Are there good rooted features on the Note 20 as there were for the Note 8?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] shaolin95:
Well, just to clarify, I have decided to go with the S21 Ultra if I need to upgrade my phone as I prefer it over what I saw from the Note 20 Ultra and others.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] paul_cherma:
keep in mind that the S21 Ultras are plagued with a camera service wakelock that drains the battery whenever motion is detected so expect a drain if you will be moving a lot with the phone in your pocket. Still no fix from samsung but some custom ROMs have sort of addressed the issue to some extent.

No buy one get one free on the Ultra, only the S21 base model with T-mobile's promotion.

[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] mputtr:
i like it. i'm on att but I am running into possibly a bug or a problem with one or 2 of my apps where notifications from the app will wake the screen whether or not you have accidental touch protection on. super frustrating on that front but otherwise it's a solid phone in general.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] jkeener88:
Love it, came from an Asus ROG Phone 2.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Inpain:
Wait what ??? Got any links with more details about this ?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Misterxtc:
Sorry for the late response. The only thing I miss with a rooted Samsung phone is ad blocking options. Other than that having a borked phone that can't be updated properly is not appealing to me. I'll go to the Pixel line if I want root in the future but for now I'm content with my Ultra.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Burt Squirtz:
I hear a lot of people say this. But the simple fact of the matter is is that if you root your phone and you know which root apps or modules to use, it makes the experience infinitely better.

OEMS do not care about you. They care about licensing and what's good for their company. If your phone is unrooted, you're cutting yourself off at the knees.

Adaway, viper, magisk hide, systemless hosts, simple root file access, and countless others make sure your Android phone the way it was meant to be.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] shaolin95:
I got the ultra and I really like it!

If it was bigger and 16:10, it would be a dream!

Wouldn't mind having sd card too
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] shaolin95:
I disagree.. yours is an opinion not a fact. The "experience is better" it all depends on each user and what they want from their phones.

I used to be huge into rooting, custom roms and even overclocking all my phones.

Don't see much point about it anymore as I can do all I need without requiring root and not losing some features.

So it is not a black or white situation. Both options can deliver the best experience depending on particular needs.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] tekzer0:
I'm not a fan of mine and I think that 888 is slower than my blackview bv9900 Pro. I got screwed into a Verizon contract because the person lied and said the 512 variant was available to purchase, and I'm stuck with the 256 version because they didn't decide to tell me that the 512 wasn't available until I had already got my entire business contract done and the inability to root really sucks. I only got this device for the most excellent camera & the handy s-pen capability. Samsung branding is an annoyance and makes the overall user experience with Android 11 a pain in my ass. I can't believe how far Samsung has fallen since the s7 edge... I wish I had just got a last generation Rog phone. I was even happier than I was with this with the razor phone 2. I'd wait for the next note to come out in February or get the FE or whatever device variant is supposed to come out in August. This phone is hyped garbage in my opinion and I always have 8 gigs of memory used out of the 12 in this variant somehow. I thoroughly cannot stand cell phone companies anymore. About to dodge this contract and use interesting tactics like I do every other phone to unblacklist it once they shut me off and go back to Net10 in deal with this until I can get it in my blackview bv9900 sold for a nice ROG phone or Blackshark
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
You should have told Verizon to shove it. I will not tolerate verbal breach of contract. I've ripped off heads at AT&T before over this. With the corporate stores bait and switch is common, always best to do purchasing over the phone as phone sales are better regulated.

The 10+ runs better on Pie. Android has dropped the ball twice since. Scope storage sucks and isn't needed.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Misterxtc:
I have to disagree with the US Samsung phones. They are not root friendly at all. Samsung does their best to discourage it.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
Yes, yes they do. So you choose between the International or Snapdragon variant.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Misterxtc:
I get all that but it's not that easy if you are on Verizon and switching carriers is not a option. Besides even with the international version Knox is broke even after you unroot and re lock the bootloader. I am very familiar with Samsung and how root works, I've been using them since the Note 2. I had a rooted Note 20 Ultra and S20 Ultra and it was more of a fight to keep it updated than it was worth. My next phone will most likely be a Pixel seeing that they will have a XL version this year unlike last.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
I have no intentions of rooting my 10+ or leaving Pie. No updates in over 1.5 years and no issues.

The current OS load is over a year old. Still surprisingly fast and stable with very little maintenance on this heavily used phone.

Security simply isn't an issue... as long as you don't do stupid things.

Is your Razr a 3G phone?

My old razr wasn't and I had to get a new sim. If you have a 3g razr then I think it would work (the sim card that is). I don't know if your overall plan will work though.

[Moto Z4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Fazwalrus:
Hello everyone, I am happy to announce that I have successfully ported TWRP to the Moto Z4 (foles). This port is directly from the Moto One Zoom, and the only thing I did was unpack its TWRP image and change a few files to make it work with the Moto Z4. However, there are most likely a few bugs, so I’d appreciate it if everyone could test it out. If you do find a bug, then please let me know. I probably won’t be able to fix it though, because I am a noob and I used a YouTube video to port this TWRP. Anyways, I’m sure all of us can work together and make this TWRP work properly. Thanks.

Flashing instructions:

Open a command prompt in your fastboot folder

Type: fastboot flash boot_a twrp-foles-test-v4.img

Type: fastboot flash boot_b twrp-foles-test-v4.img

Then use the volume buttons to boot into recovery

Lol that's a fake site generated by a bot, it'll tell you everything but won't give you the download link. The best place to look is on XDA or some other reputable source.

Currently I'm thinking about developing a LineageOS custom ROM for the Moto Z4 myself, but I've never done it before so it might be tough and take a lot of time.
[Moto Z4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] duh_org:
Hm. I tried to boot this the way I would boot TWRP on other devices *without* flashing it ("fastboot boot IMAGEFILE"), which should just boot it in RAM, and that doesn't work. I don't know if special building is required to do that, but I kinda need to boot it from RAM only for *pulling* the stock boot image after an OTA so I can reinstrument it for Magisk.

[ There's a nasty bug in the -21 update that makes Bluetooth all kinds of wonky and unfortunately lolinet doesn't have the zip yet for me to grab the boot image from there. Though if someone happens to have the stock boot partition image from QFPS30.130-15-11-23, I'm all ears ]

...edit: It booted fine flashing into the inactive slot and using "fastboot set_active" long enough to do what I needed, I got my boot image patched with Magisk. Well, can at least verify it works! :)
[Moto Z4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Fazwalrus:
Yeah sorry I forgot to mention that, it'll only work of you flash it with my given directions. This is only a port, so not everything works. And yes, that update (starting from -17) messes up a lot of stuff like WiFi and Bluetooth when you root or install a GSI. I just rolled back to -15.

[Moto Z4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mecowman:
I am trying to get away from google. and was extremely exited to Fazwalrus got TWRP adapted, and even more excited about Lineage OS.

so I decided to give it a shot! I already had unlocked the bootloader and have used ADB Fastboot.

loading TWRP was a snap and worked perfectly. with the exception of somehow disabling the WIFI and cell modem. absolutely no connection, couldn't even turn them on. something odd though, all of a sudden the phone thought it was a dual sim.. after doing some research found out about Lenovo rescue and restore. that worked to restore to stock after running it twice. and bonus TWRP is there.

Now my question as a novice should I go all the way and install Lineage? Maybe I'm a little gun-shy, but what are the chances that whatever happened while installing TWRP will mess up again? I don't want to brick this thing, but really really want Google out of my life.

moto z4 XT1980-3 Foles
[Moto Z4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Fazwalrus:
I mean, it's your choice. LineageOS is running fine on my Moto Z4, and I don't think you should be worried about getting your phone bricked because nothing happened to me or any of the other testers. Also, if you don't like it you can always flash the stock ROM.

Regarding your question about stuff getting disabled like WiFi and cell, I'm pretty sure that's an issue with the latest updates Motorola pushed out, and that stuff happens if you modify the boot image. So to prevent this from happening, use an older stock ROM (QPFS30.130-15-11-15 or earlier) and flash TWRP on top of that.
[Moto Z4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mecowman:
finally got around to installing LineageOS! This Is awesome. Thank you Fazwalrus.

One program is giving me trouble. Iamresponding. cant connect to server. had to load it from apkpure, honestly not sure what to do about it. Fortunately I can live without it until I get a chance to look into what is causing the glitch.
[Moto Z4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Fazwalrus:
Thanks! Could you join the Moto Z4 device group chat on Telegram, so that I may assist you with your problem? Also, did you install LineageOS from this TWRP and if so, how did you do it? When I tried installing from TWRP it gave me an error (as opposed to installing from LOS recovery), so now I'm working on building TWRP from source.
[Moto Z4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] mecowman:
I used LOS recovery. Made sense to use the recovery for the OS instead of TWRP. will be on telegram shortly.
[Moto Z4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Fazwalrus:
Alright cool
[Moto Z4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] DulacLancelot:
So if you install a custom ROM that means you can't use any Moto Mods, right?
[Moto Z4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Fazwalrus:
That's only because I haven't fixed them in my LineageOS build. They can work, but I need to make a build that's works with them, but that probably won't happen in a while.
[Moto Z4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] DulacLancelot:
Oh really?? I didn't know that. Is that possible because in the process of building LineageOS you have to use the source code released from Motorola, and that source code is where the Moto Mod support is?
[Moto Z4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Fazwalrus:
Yeah, basically. Except they didn't release the code for any of the camera mods, so they won't ever work. This is true with other Moto Z phones as well.

also, is there an easy way to turn the wm6 taskbar into matte black rather than the glossy black?
