[LG Wing Questions & Answers] pj-:
Using various guides I was able to get most of the retail mode stuff removed. I didn't take very good notes as I was going but could probably dig up what I used if anyone else needs help.

Aside from the 50% limitation, I also have:

1. After reboot, the list of Second Screen compatible apps resets to default

2. Fingerprint reader not usable

Anyone had any luck on either of those?

I also noticed that someone on ebay was selling demo units flashed with a tmobile rom. I spent a bit of time yesterday trying to flash stock retail roms but didn't have any luck..
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] Kazkyuu:
I've found a not so great workaround for the charging limitation. Seems like whatever process is limiting the battery charging to 50% is not executed on the factory reset screen. I've gone into this mode on my LG-Wing and have been able to charge the battery completely (just make sure you don't accidentally select yes+ok). I know this is terrible since the screen can't be turned off here and it's mostly just black text on a white background at max brightness, but I thought it'd be worth mentioning. I may try out a few other things later today to see if I can find something else around this charging limitation that could be of any help.
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] Aleeexx588:
Thank you,Ial try that right now! And maby flashing it could help, but as much as I have tried I have been unable to. :(
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] sev7en:
Nice spot! It means definitively there is a process to watch on.
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] pcgumshoe:
Hello, I too have an LG Wing Demo unit with only wifi. When I try to use

the LG Demo app with this pin code 103729, not correct pin. When I get to any point where the next password (L310MC570G) would fit, it also does not work either

My Wing is a Verizon demo.

Any help with any alternate passwords and pins would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks!
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] devingubler1:
I saw something about in the v60 demo remove thread that flashing Verizon and then TMobile firmware got all the limitations off. Don't know the first step on doing this myself, I also cannot find any correct password to enable developer options but I'm waiting for any help from anyone.
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] Cheesequake:
Any chance you have a link to that? I haven't been able to find it after searching.
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] devingubler1:
I apologize twice 1st don't have a link but 2nd I do say I'm sorry I said the wrong forum. Actually it was in the LG wing guides news and discussion thread titled success! 5g working on demo LG wing. I got a response from the fellow and we texted quite a bit about it but he said his laptop with all the info was on consignment until the 2nd (Thursday). So I thought we could work some sort of deal out but it hasn't happened yet. Apparently flashing the correct image file 1st and then a different image after worked for him. I'm still interested in doing this but not in a hurry like I was at first, I am having a hard time finding the Verizon firmware.
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] devingubler1:
So I searched again for passwords and I found a reddit lgwing thread that helped me even though the wording isnt very helpful. will update below with any updates

the passwords are found here

https://www.reddit.com/r/LGWing/comments/o1tegn
this page says some less than clear wording so i prefer to say this:

When LG Demo app asks for code use the short one 103729.

If the ok button isnt available like for developer options, use the long password L310MC570G

then you enable adb debugging etc as shown in this thread

https://xdaforums.com/t/retail-mode-removal.4309337/

so what happens after the above is it changes it from you cant do anything to you can do things like power off by putting in the longer password (L310MC570G). sadly the biggest snag still is that it wont go into download mode it just goes into the charging animation (powered off) so cant flash anything until this resolves. my other issue-free wing goes into dl mode no problem.

now it will adb reboot recovery so that might be something hopeful?

anyway if anyone knows what is wrong please help.

thanks.

EDIT:

1 - I don't really care about rooting the phone. I'd simply like to have Lineage OS on it.

2 - I don't really care about having a installed version of TWRP, I can do the fastboot boot only if that would work to install lineage on there.

So I unlock the bootloader fine.

Now following this :

Motorola Moto G7 Play

Disclaimer:Team Win strives to provide a quality product. However, it is your decision to install our software on your device. Team Win takes no ...

twrp.me

I am able to

fastboot boot twrp.img

Then I do the install of the .zip from the TWRP site.

Wipe davlik and reboot

System starts fine. I reboot in bootloader mode (power + volumn down) then go to recovery

it has that

N/A in the top corner, flash black and buzz, flash black again then the androdi starts normally.

I read somewhere the this is a bootloop - and I should install Magisk from TWRP, which I did probably incorrectly at one point.

Booting back into fastboot boot twrp.img

I wipe advanced (system davlik data system)

Then Advanced Fix Recovery Bootloop

Then this seems to be not good:

Unpacking Boot...

Backing up Boot...

Patching kernel...

(in red)

cd /tmp/repackorig/ && /system/bin/magiskboot hexpatch kernel (lots of numbers) process eneded with

Error patching kernel

So did I screw up my kernel while trying to install magisk ? What would be the next step?

Would it make sense to flash the original firmware from here:

https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-channel-stock-moto-g7-play-factory-firmware-images.3996303/

The question I would have is which one should I choose in there:

lolinet mirrors - firmware, software, iso etc.

lolinet mirrors - powered by h5ai

mirrors.lolinet.com

The retail one? Mine is factory unlocked, not connected to any network,

MPN: Moto G7 Play, XT1952-1

Network: Unlocked

The phone still work fine (I think, didn't do more than booting and checking the internet).
[Moto G7 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] sd_shadow:
If you tried to install magisk, it may be interfering with TWRP.

A few different options

to find the correct Firmware you need to know

Software Channel, Codename, Software Version, and Model #

all of these can be found in the getvar all (remove imei before posting getvar all)

fastboot getvar all

or you can use LMSA's rescue option, LMSA will find the newest firmware for your device,

So if it's the same Software version as what is on the device, can just flash the boot.img from the firmware folder.

fastboot flash boot boot.img

or use

[Moto G7 Play Guides, News, & Discussion] damaru:
That would be fastboot flash boot boot.img right?

I've downloaded the appropriate firmware using fastboot getvar all to get the right model. The phone boots properly (it wasn't after I used the wrong firmware). But then I get to the same error when I fastboot boot twrn.img and try the advance Fix Recovery Bootloop.

When I did flash the whole firmware, the Bad Code was back, then I flashed TWRP and then the N/A was there and when I tried to boot to recovery the same loop happened.

From my lack of understanding, did I updated the Kernel when I reflashed the firmware? And does magisk modify my Kernel. How would I put back the original kernel?

Thanks for the support it's greatly appreciated! I've been on this for too many hours now!

Yes this is the one I used. I might have done more fastboot stuff than what was in the xml file (these are from the post itself and not from the firmware file):

fastboot erase DDR

fastboot erase cache

fastboot erase carrier

fastboot erase userdata

fastboot oem fb_mode_clear

fastboot reboot

which in the retca xml only had :

<step operation="erase" partition="DDR"/>

<step operation="oem" var="fb_mode_clear"/>

should I reflash the whole thing, omitting the erase at the end?

No, if you used fastboot oem fb_mode_clear

I don't think you need to Install TWRP to install Lineage

Just boot twrp and install the Rom

Edit: Looks like you tried that already

Make sure you are using the preinstall zip before installing the rom

Hello. I updated the Android Beta and it seems I don't have that one mega-useful icon on the top screen that tells me if the signal is strong enough to make a call. Anyone had this very thing? Seems no one in the world noticed and it seems so weird to me.

If anyone knows how to make it appear again... well, very appreciated :')

Looks like a conscious design decision to only show your current internet connection whether it be wifi or carrier.

Dropping down the shade reveals your carrier connection strength if currently on wifi.

I can't get it to appear with the standard System UI tweaker either. In a way it makes sense, in another way it is annoying. :)

Hi, I have just upgraded an G4 to Tomal's 8.2 WM6.1 (to whom great thanks) and have an interesting problem whereby I don't have phone or a contacts list. I have data, can send text but no incoming or outgoing calls. The dialling phone gets a ring but the Uni does nothing.

When I try to activate the phone applet in any way or activate the contacts list, nada, nish. You can see that the keypress is being registed but it's like there is no instruction associated with the keypress.

What is slightly annoying is that I rushed in and upgraded before checking in WM5 and I don't really want to downgrade just to check it.

I only flashed the new rom and didn't CID/SIM unlock.

As always, views and ideas gratefully received.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] edenc:
Sorted

For anyone else upgrading to WM6.1 (Tomal's) on a G4 I'd be intrerested to see if you get this problem. It is when the REALVGA applet is installed and running 128DPI. Oddly the problem dissapears if you remove the applet and the 96DPI packs when running at 128.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abdullah5490:
I did use Maui Meta tool in the past to restore IMEIs on slitely older MTK devices, but My current phone is based on MTK6768 with secure boot, needed the IMEIs to be written after flashing firmware. I can use SP flash tool with "sec boot" utility to flash ROM successfully, But unable to connect to Maui Meta tool. I have Modem meta tool Version 10.2044, after launching the program as an admin, it is doing the following:

1. Clicking "connect" and plugging the cable to phone in turned off state: windows make a hardware connect sound, a new port appear in device manager, followed by a disconnect sound after 1 second, that hardware disappear and phone boot-up in offline charging mode or to the welcome/lock screen. The "meta tool" remain at looking for device connection.

2. Holding the Volume down while plugging the Cable in, do the exact same - "meta Tool" remain in waiting for connection.

3. Holding Volume Up: it connect, then disconnect and went to Stock recovery - "meta tool" remain in waiting state.

4. Holding Power+Volume up: Windows continue making connect and disconnect sounds again and again and the Port under device manager keep coming in and out. Phone boots up as soon as I leave the buttons. "meta Tool" remain in waiting for connection, or sometime move to "getting Kernel Port" and get stuck at it.

5. Holding both volume buttons: do the exact same as point Number 4 above.

6. Holding both volumes+power buttons: do the exact same as point number 4 above.

Definitely, all MTK drivers are installed and working because I can use SP flash tool in conjunction with secBoot utility without any problem. I tried other similar tools like “SN writer” and “read and write tool v1.3” and faced almost same behaviour. It means my device is not going into Meta mode properly with these tools. Please contribute in helping me with your valuable suggestion, as I’m not being able to use this device due to cellular network unavailability.

Ok guys, so I've been trying to increase my ram by using app2sd, but the issue is when I try to mount the second partition (ext4 btw, because I see that all the other storage in my phone is in that format by app2sd) I get the next message: "unable to determine su.d path, you can set the "su.d/post-fs-data.d/service.d" path in Settings and try again" honestly I don't know what to do here at this point, where is that directory? do I have to put it in internal storage or in the second sd card's partition? (I've seen that some "/data" directory has something to see about)

I'm trying to get that 8GB partition on the sd card run as virtual RAM by swapping it with some swapper app, or there's actually a RAM limit that I don't know, or can I just assign whatever amount of RAM that I desire as long I have a partition big enough? Also I tried with a 32GB partition on another SD card with the same result
