I haven't installed a ROM. I just did the procedure as I described in my previous post. Perhaps that's my problem. Which ROM would be recommended? My goal is to have my 5G Ace to be like my Note 4: I had total control on it and didn't have to do any updates or anything. Everything stayed the way I wanted it. Yes, I am pretty new at this.

I will do what you recommended above and see where that takes me.

[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] clintongsan:
Yeah, you flashed this guys TWRP...or booted it. I know, that's a smart answer but I too ran into some seriously eyebrow raising issues after testing this TWRP, thinking I was being helpful.

I know have a permanent block from accessing *#06#

If I re-enable the default Dialer app I can get it, but now I see a permanent new entry thats labeled:

MDN (my phone number)

This seriously angers me because these, along with my data consumption being raised, in one day to over five times my daily usage and strange ingoing/outgoing texts to a 222-224-4444 number taking place over and over in the early AM hours while I was for sure asleep, are very serious concerns that perhaps there's some level of unauthorized access going on...I DO NOT KNOW THAT FOR SURE, THOUGH...NOT YET.

I had to erase EVERYTHING and use LMSA but be careful if you don't feel comfortable erasing just use LMSA and start over with root/twrp. Use AndrewHexen's TWRP from the official Telegram channel.

[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] clintongsan:
Did you have any issues with calls? Any weird entries that are new such as SIM 2 showing up in Phone Information (*#*#4636#*#*) or *#06#? Anything strange in your prop values if you access adb shell getprop? (If you're unfamiliar with getprop then it'll probably all look strange so nevermind the last part haha) Maybe you can help me understand where I'm misguided or confused here...giving the benefit of the doubt just got a lot harder after seeing that you, too, have had issues with connectivity. Watch your data, check your SMS usage for that 222-224-4444 number and/or data usage during times that you know you were asleep/working/not using data extensively.
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] clintongsan:
I think you, if you didn't intend to do anything malicious that is, I think you might've accidentally included code that is specific to your personal device, dude. My phone began acting like it was cloned, as well as it was an international model. Where did you acquire your international device from? Best Buy? I'm having the same issues as others without knowing there were any issues yet....please tell me this is accidental. ALso, disabling my mobile data and VPN and running an IP route showed me pinging from San Jose, CA, far away from where I'm actually located. It's now back to normal but I still have all of my logs saved from right before I began to erase and start all over.
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] fosgate3:
Not that I know of. Once I saw that I couldn't receive texts, I pulled the SIM and put it back in my spare. I'll use LMSA and rescue the phone. Thanks for pointing it out.
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] fosgate3:
I still did not have texting after using LMSA and I think I may know why: My previous phone is not 5G so I am using the standard LTE SIM card. This new phone, the XT2113-2, is 5G and I'm thinking I may need a new SIM card in order to use it. Does this make sense to anyone else? (and I apologize in advance if I am late to the parade with this info)
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] h3xmind:
Thanks for your feedback and I'm sorry you have these issues. If anything personal was added it was absolutely accidental. But as I explain below I really doubt that this happened due to the recovery.

I really doubt a recovery could have such an impact on the system. It runs separately from the system and is stored on a separate partition (if you flashed it) and does not write any prop on your phone. The things from the recovery run only and only when in recovery. When you are in system, no things from the recovery run.

I built the twrp with the same device tree as the other twrp you can find on telegram. No personal stuff involved. When you build the recovery the PC doesn't know anything about your phone except from the information it has from the device tree. And I used the same device tree as the other twrp recovery. So the PC has no idea that my device is international. It has no idea that I even have a motorola.

I recompiled the kernel by myself in order to allow loading unsigned modules (needed to make the touchscreen work). I used the kernel provided by Motorola. That’s the only difference. But the kernel used when running the system is different from the kernel in recovery. The kernel I compiled runs only when in recovery. The "[ro.build.host]: [h3xmind-SATELLITE-L850-16V]" stuff you see when you do getprop is just the model of my old Toshiba laptop. No real satellites are involved. :)

If you do getprop on the twrp from telegram you will also see some "personal" information of it's developer, like the name of the computer he used and so on. This is normal. I diffed the two outputs and there is no big difference, except that in mine you will find h3xmind a few times and in his you'll find syber. That's it.

I bought my phone on Amazon in Europe. Pinging depends on your ISP. If it depended on any setting from my phone you would get a location from Europe. But anyway, I'll verify if there is any possibility that this is caused by the recovery.

Can you explain more in details exactly what you did? Did you flash the recovery? Did you root your phone afterwards?
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] codeOps64:
I use LTE/4G sim only and i recieve texts fine. Altough it might be because of sim as you said.

Here are the few sites i gathered and read that might help you solve this :

Link 1

Link 2

Link 3

It looks like it has something to do with your carrier settings/CDMA-less when you change your phone.Try contacting your carrier.

If nothing works, replace your sim with new one i guess.
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] h3xmind:
I’m really sorry you have issues but I have to ask: would you mind explainin what does the recovery have to do with SMS or phone number entries? Your’s are some serious allegations. I’m really sorry you have issues but it is not fair to throw mud on other’s work

ike this. Are you absolutely sure that the source of your issues is in the twrp? Could you recount the whole story please? What exactly did you do with your phone? Could you provide the steps? Did you install anything after flashing the recovery? Did you visit any dubious websites? This would be helpful to see what can be done to solve those issues.

Developer’s here are not paid for any of the work. We sacrifice time and efforts to help the community. Bugs will always exist and feedback is welcome. Constructive feedback, not unfounded allegations.
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] fosgate3:
This fixed my problem. I contacted Verizon and they enabled the setting. Did it all through their chat feature on their website. Off to root it again.
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] fosgate3:
I followed the same steps to root as I did yesterday and today, when I try to flash TWRP, it fails with the message "(bootloader) Invalid partition name recover"

Anyone know what this means and how to get around it?
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] h3xmind:
It should be recovery_a or recovery_b, not recover. Did you mistype?
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] fosgate3:
My mistake... I misspelled "recovery"... left off the y! Geez. its done now
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] h3xmind:
Anyway, I found out (thanks to Andrew Hexen) that the phone has two recoveries, therefore you have to specify which one you want to flash to. Not sure what happens if you don't specify. Anyway, backup the partitions before playing with them.
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] fosgate3:
I think it goes to a, by default. When I just did it, I simply typed "fastboot recovery twrp.img" and it worked fine. Magisk is now installed and the phone is rooted. If I can just get rid of the bootloader warning, that would be great. I tried doing this yesterday using a couple of logos someone on here made for the phone and the command "fastboot logo logo.bin" but I still ended up having the warning and the logo image was smaller than my screen.
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] h3xmind:
Glad it worked. Do you still encounter any issues with sending text or other things?

I'm not sure how to change that annoying warning. Never tried that. But if you do find a solution, please share it with us.
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] fosgate3:
So far, I haven't encountered any problems. All my apps seem to be installing fine.
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] h3xmind:
Great. Let me know if anything unexpected pops up. I'd feel rather bad if someone had problems due to a bug or something. I'd like to fix whatever pops up, although I don't expect serious issues.
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] fosgate3:

Do you happen to have a list of services that can be frozen or uninstalled? It seems like Google has its tentacles all through this phone.

[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Skel40:
Do I flash recovery a and b with the same image posted here for TWRP?

I'm unfamiliar with a and b. Is that supposed to be two recovery modes?
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] h3xmind:
Basically, the phone has two copies of the recovery (and of other important partitions), namely A and B. A and B are called slots. Only one slot is active. This allows for the phone to be updated without interrupting your phone usage. Let’s say your phone is currently using slot A and Motorola releases an update. The system will update partitions on slot B while the system is running on A. Once the update is done, it will ask you to reboot. After rebooting, slot A becomes inactive and your system starts running on B. If the update fails, the system just switches back to A.

So to answer your question. You can flash this twrp on both recovery partitions.
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] clintongsan:
I was hoping you could tell me. I cannot use texts/SMS. I have to disable Mobile Data to receive and send texts. I have tried a completely erase/manual flash as well as LMSA rescue flash and my SMS issue persists. This issue did not ever occur before I booted the TWRP and I wouldn't have associated the two issues had no one else also reported the same problem. I am awaiting a new SIM card. I've never had something like this happen, especially in the field of having to disable Mobile Data to receive texts. I have unrooted my phone completely, restored all software back to stock using LMSA and still...no luck. If the new SIM card doesn't fix it and if there's nothing that you know of that could've happened associated with just flashing a recovery, then I will just have to buy a new device. If you'd like to see any information I would be happy to pull data or logs off and share them with you in hopes of resolving this issue but again, if you truly feel or know that the two can't be related perhaps it was just the timing and somehow I have a way more complicated issue going on that has nothing to do with your recovery and in which case I am sincerely sorry for assuming that it might have been part of the problem. I will delete my posts but I just want to let you know that I am unsure of the root cause of this issue and I would at least look into it on your end, or request info from my device if you'd like, to ensure that there's absolutely positively no way any other users will run into the same issue in the future. I mean no disrespect or harm to your reputation; I just hoped this would be an easy fix but if you haven't anymore idea than I do than perhaps the two are not, in fact, related.
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] clintongsan:
Umm, so how does one delete a post they've created here? Is it permanent once posted?
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] h3xmind:
Don't worry. No hurt feelings. I hope we can find a solution to your problem.

I think there is something wrong in some hidden setting, maybe even on the carrier's side. The fact that you CAN send and receive text when you disable data means that your phone is physically working. If you restored everything with LMSA it means your phone is identical as when you received it. This makes me think that the carrier must solve the issue on it's side.

I read in some comments on this youtube video that this happens sometime with moto devices with verizon. I'm not sure though if you are located in US and use verizon services. Did you speak with your carrier or you just ordered a new sim?

Of course you can post the logs (prior to posting, please, make sure that there is no private information inside that you would not like to publish). Maybe something useful pops up.

I really hope we can find a solution to this.
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] h3xmind:
Don't worry about the post. I believe that at most you can edit it, but you shouldn't worry to much. When you find a solution you can edit it and add what was the cause of the problem.
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] h3xmind:
@clintongsan Once solved the problem, if you feel more comfortable using Hexen's recovery, don't hesitate to do so. I wouldn't even spent time building this recovery in the first place if I knew there was already one. I learned that later. If you encounter issues with the touchscreen, here's a short guide I wrote that shows you how to fix it in two minutes.

[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] fosgate3:
Thanks! My phone is still working well but I am not happy with switching from a Samsung to a Motorola. Maybe I'm too set in my ways, I don't know. I very, very much miss having the led light that blinks when I have a message or email. I feel like I have to constantly pick up the phone in order to see if someone's texting me. I also don't like how turning off the location services is more of a multistep process compared to my old Note 4 where I can just pull the menu down and press on the location button. And with that, I have found instances where certain apps have "turned on" location services on their own even though I had settings specifying which apps can use location services and when (i.e. only when the app is in use). In fact, I even tried to go back to using the old Note 4 until I had no other option but to upgrade to a 5G phone but I no longer had service on the phone using my existing SIM card. I'm guessing by having Verizon enable the CDMA-less option, it made my SIM card inoperable with my Note4? I don't know. I'd go with a Note 20 Ultra 5G but so far, I haven't found a successful method of rooting. Another XDA member (Krazzieboy) posted a guide to doing it but based on the replies to his thread, it doesn't work (the thread is here).

Do you know of any custom ROMs I can use with this Motorola---something other than the stock Motorola ROM that seems to be on it now? Thanks for all your help. I'd buy you a beer if you lived nearby.

His recovery works! The touchscreen is now functional. Now I need help backing up the correct partitions before flashing the TWRP recovery. Which partitions should I backup first just in case I want to revert back to a locked bootloader? With stock recovery, stock everything?
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] h3xmind:
I suggest you join the telegram group in SyberHexen’s post where you got twrp from. There he explained which partitions to backup and how to do it properly. Just ask there and he will forward you the answer. I’m saying this because you seem to have the same model number and I believe he is in a better position to help you. Also, I’m mostly absent these days and in the following weeks I won’t be able to follow much the forum. Anyway, you can always backup all partitions, just to be safe.

I have two questions about this:

1. Has anyone tested whether one can flash magisk 23 just fine with this twrp?

2. Is there a risk I'll brick the device by flashing this? I am asking bc I never had a phone that required this process to flash recovery, just a regular "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img"
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] RETIEF:
I can't answer your questions. It should work. I know that the fastboot command works. If you want twrp on both a and b, you need to use the appropriate fastboot commands.
[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tomspector:

[Moto G 5G ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] the.real.p3y0t3:
I got my kiev today, and went right to work trying to break it good (no luck). I know this has been beaten to death, but heres my 2 cents. Touchscreen does not work for me when booting kernel from phone. Fastbooting it works fine, and all features appear to work. I havent actually restored the backup yet, so dunno about that.

Its worth noting that touchscreen doesnt work for me in either android 10 or the euro 11 XT2113-2

Also worth noting, regarding magisk stuff. Just download yer respective firmware from lolinet, extract the zip, grab the 96mb boot.img out of it and copy it to your phones internal storage, install latest magisk manager, choose install -> install method patch file, point it to the file you copied to internal storage, patch it, drop phone into fastboot mode and flash the boot.img to boot_a and\or boot_b, depending which slot your on. Or just flash it to boot, which will also get the job done. I did exactly this, and it worked fine. Dont forget you need to unlock your bootloader! fastboot oem get_unlock_data, motodev portal, get code, fastboot oem unlock <your code>
