Running Chrome os 92 installed with Brunch to Dell Optipilex 7450 All In One. Surprisingly Easy to install per these instructions. Guide to install Chrome os on PC

OS is very fast especially on ssd, everything works perfect except for the internal microphone. External USB mic works fine but i cannot find solution to fix internal mic. I've tried enabling in bios, going to chrome settings>site settings> and enabling, still no luck.

Does anyone have a solution to make the internal mic work using this hacked type of chrome os on a pc?

Or other ways to fix internal mic, even for Chromebook?

Thx

Hello,

could you please help me - what is the marked piece on mainboard? There are 3 of them, I accidentally broke one of them. They looks like a piece of metal that make a contact when cover is on. It looks like they also make a contact with the cover. My phone still works without one of them, so I can not find their purpose...

Should I solder it back on or should I leave it broken off?

Help! My Diamond has lost it's sparkle.

I have no signal just an ! next to the antenna logo. It's not network coverage as I've tried another phone with my 3 sim and my vodafone sim in the diamond and no signal with either network, although I get a message that I need to update the settings for this network.

I have tried reflashing the origional vodafone rom 1.93.161.2 and reflashing the radio to 1.00.25.05 and now 1.00.25.06 none of which get me a signal.

If I do a manual search for a network the phone finds vodafone, o2, orange, 3 and t-mobile but none give me a signal :-( any help I've only had the phone for a couple of weeks after buying it new off ebay.

Just tried the 08 radio and no luck. I did get some signal bars after I posted this morning with my Vodafone sim but any try at making a call just gave me what sounded like an engaged tone. What do you mean by connection setup? The phone was working but then stopped with no modification.

Well it turns out that the phone was on a blacklist despite coming up as clear on a search I did by the ebay recomended tool. Fortunatly the seller was prompt with a refund. I suspect I was lucky on this occasion.

Hey folks. I got a new Moto G7 Plus (XT1965-T) and wanted to install TWRP and custom ROM, as done on my G5 Plus. Long story short... I accidentally flashed a recovery image for my G5 Plus, and hard-bricked the phone. I managed to unbrick, thanks to luiz_neto's "[ULTIMATE GUIDE] How To Unbrick your Moto G7 Plus" post (BIG shout out). However, when in drop to Recovery Mode, TWRP v3.2.1-0 as was installed on the G5+, is displayed. The screen then locks up requiring a hard reset. I can boot to the Factory ROM and the phone functions normally, however am unable to figure out how to reinstall the OEM recovery. All procedures to revert back to full OEM seem to reference flashing a factory "Image". I can only find .zip files on the stock ROM. Any clues out there as to how I can fix this problem would be greatly appreciated?

My recommendation: Re-flash Stock ROM to get rid off of all modifications you applied so far.
[Moto G7 Plus Questions & Answers] cliffgi:
My thoughts too, but stock ROMS are in xml.zip fromat, and I have no idea how to install. Some guidance indicates that extracted files are manually flashed in sequence. This seems odd and instructions are incomplete. Where can the stock ROM, what will be the format, and where can I find accurate and complete instructions?
[Moto G7 Plus Questions & Answers] flash713:
I previously had a Motorola G7 Power device and I know that's not the same device you have here but I do recall our factory images were on a server and you had to really be careful which one you installed. There were six or seven different Moto G7 power device models and that many stock rom/ images. I can help you look and try and see if there is anything out there.

What is the exact model of your device or just post a screenshot of your "about phone" in settings if you'd like.... Please tell me your build number in phone settings when you get a minute I'm trying to figure out exactly what model device you have. Sometimes Motorola can be kinda tricky.

I'm not saying these links are to firmware that is made for your device. I need to know exactly what model you have to determine that but you may want to check out these:

Sidenote: I had a Moto that had the same exact XTxxxx number as another model is why I want to be for sure about this .

https://xdaforums.com/t/flash-rom-bat-android-9-flash-stock-rom-of-your-moto-g7-plus.3910423/

If there is anything out there I, like others here have already commented would suggest flashing the factory image /stock rom, whatever you want to call it that's made for your device and also at some point formatting data. fastboot -w
[Moto G7 Plus Questions & Answers] cliffgi:
Device is a Moto G7 Plus model: XT1965-T. It is/was Android 10. I thought I had a good stock rom and flash procedure, but following a latenight attempt, I was obviously wrong. I am now stuck in a boot-loop. I can still get to fastboot and it is recognized adb tools., but that is it. Step one, get the build number before 'zucking' with it. Blew that! Would understand if you walked. Anyway, if your still here, I think the ROM is correct, Motorola_Moto_G7_Plus_XT1965-T_RETUS_LAKE_QPWS30.61-21-18-7-3_10.zip from motostockrom.com. If so, I obviously have no idea how to flash using adb tools and fastboot. Also, I see ROMs ending in .xml.zip, vice .zip. Just packaging? Where to from here? Frame it and find a wall? I'll hold off a couple of days before zucking with it some more. I have a septic tank lid to fix. Way more fun and greater chance of success!
[Moto G7 Plus Questions & Answers] flash713:
RETUS is retail US model device. On my G7 Power there were multiple firmwares that could be used. Idk if this is it but check out "RETAIL" from here: https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/motorola/lake/official/RETAIL/

I didn't see a RETUS firmware. G7 Plus is codename "LAKE" correct ?
[Moto G7 Plus Questions & Answers] cliffgi:
Yes. Aaccording to multiple references, LAKE is the codename for the XT1965-T. My OEM box clearly states XT1965-T. It is an unbranded unlocked, full price phone, new out of the box. When I search for "stock ROM", I only find _LAKE_ along with the words "_RETAIL_" or "_RETUS_" in the zip name. Not certain of that though.
[Moto G7 Plus Questions & Answers] cliffgi:
I think RETUS means Retail US. Again, just wagging.
[Moto G7 Plus Questions & Answers] flash713:
Maybe check the RETAIL firmware on Lake device section and see if you can find anything that resembles the firmware that you are currently on. Look at dates of the firmware packages. Download a few and unpack them and look inside. That's what I would do. When I look up your model it shows two models .. The T-Mobile Moto G7 Plus and the Unlocked G7 Plus. I'd scope out the contence of the RETAIL firmware and see what all is inside once unpacked.. You should be able to tell by that if the retail is indeed RETUS which is yes retail US.

Where the RIVER firmware is at the link I pasted here in the thread , if you scroll down there is a telegram group link: https://t.me/lolinet

Maybe someone there knows more about all this. Worth a shot.

One last thing, inside the firmware, once it's unpacked I believe there is a script for flashing it. Open it to see order of partitions flashed.. If you do NOT already have a backup of your IMEI you should most definitely back them up as soon as you are able to. Then if you end up with no signal and your IMEI disappears you can fastboot the backed up files and your good. If not and you lose them, you're SOL and you have a paperweight. i remember on my G7 Power I messed mine up and luckily had a backup of them or I would have been screwed.

Once you get up and running again to copy your efs you can use termux terminal or another terminal emulator app and type: su then grant root once it pops up on your phone screen. Them type these two lines, one at a time and it will backup your efs to your sdcard and you can transfer them to your PC, a cloud or USB drive where they're safe.

dd if=/dev/block/sdf3 of=/sdcard/modemst2.bin bs=2048 (then push enter)

dd if=/dev/block/sdf2 of=/sdcard/modemst1.bin bs=2048 (enter)

Seems obvious that RETUS stand for Retail US, and all appears to be all correct for my device.

As for a the IMEI it is printed on the box. I have no softcopy.

Very familiar with dd. Excellent idea. Will do, as well as get a full TWRP backup, when get it running.

The unzipped ROM file creates directories: Driver, Firmware, and RSD Flash Tool, as well as credits.txt and How to Flash.txt. How to Flash.txt simply says to install drivers, I have already done; connect device which I know how to do (fastboot devices confirmation), and run the previously mentioned flashfile.bat from the Firmware directory.

Questions:

What It does not say is that this zip was designed for Windows, not Linux (as I ran last night). I also assume that it should be run as administrator. The Windows machine already has Adb Tools and Fastboot installed. I haven't really touched a Windows machine in ten years (TG), but from what I recall, unlike Linux/UNIX, the current working directory is automatically added to the search path. Is this stil the case for Win10 and will the current working directory be searched first, or is there a possibility that there might be a cmd/file version mismatch between the two installs? I have no idea what the directory of RSD Flash Tools is for. ? Any additional thought before I take the pill? A BIG THANKS FOR ALL THE HELP.
[Moto G7 Plus Questions & Answers] flash713:
On Moto G7 power device the devs changed the firmware install commands and lefts out a few that they said weren't needed. Check out G7 power guides section of xda. There are fastboot guides there. Having a physical backup of your efs is important. It's not the same as just knowing your imei. The only way your imei can be restored is if you backup the efs partitions and if/when you have issues, (many do!) you can fastboot flash them back to your device.

I can't stand Windows. I'm a Linux guru and wish I would have discovered it sooner. I have a Asus Chromebook that I use now and i immediately installed crouton and Ubuntu same day it arrived from Amazon. 😂 ChromeOS is actually not bad but fact that its a MAJOR Target for malware and viruses is an issue for me. I'm quite sure the files are for windows. Things still usually are that way much of the time in my experience.. I hope you get it resolved and fixed. I came across more links earlier. I'll go grab them and add them to my post here after I post this. I actually found a G7 Plus fastboot firmware flash guide too. Idk if it's correct or not but lemme go get the links.

This may or may not be helpful. Careful what all you fastboot flash. These Moto devices, the G7, G7+, Power...They can be confusing as far as correct firmware. I also remember on G7 Power our stock firmware, not all of the stock rom partitions would flash.. Some would work for some people and not for others.. See this is a danger zone for the possibility of messing up your efs and losing IMEI.. If anything is flashed that doesn't belong it can screw that up and then you'd lose data and not be able to restore them to fix device.. That's why I mentioned it earlier..

https://xdaforums.com/t/the-complet...g-metropcs-xt1955-5-qualcomm-variant.3954986/

The guide on that thread with the fastboot directions is how we flashed our firmware on G7 Power.

May want to read here: https://lineageosroms.com/lake/

The G7 Plus is codename LAKE. I keep thinking RIVER but RIVER is codename for the regular Moto G7 device.

Edit added:

Didn't you mention something about attempting to install recovery TWRP before you bricked? You can try flashing stock boot.img to both slots and reboot system and see if device boots up. Just open terminal and get a stock firmware boot.img from extracted firmware for LAKE device and in terminal and while phones in bootloader mode: sudo fastboot flash boot boot.img --slot all

That will get boot.img on both slot A&B and should fix anything you did with TWRP and boot partition,, if there is anything in your boot partition that's causing phone not to boot. Just make sure boot.img is from LAKE firmware.

When you connect to your PC and open terminal and do: adb reboot bootloader

And then : sudo fastboot getvar all

does anything appear to be not okay? Definitely check that out. I would if I were you. Good luck man. I had found a thread that had firmware fastboot directions. It was dated 19 months ago but "if" it was correct im quite sure it would still apply now . Good luck man. ✌️

Well tried to flash stock ROM and got error messages/failure. See attached screenshot.

Got it 100% fixed. Principle problems in recovery from this zuck-up were scoping the problem, locating the proper Stock ROM, figuring out fastboot, and lastly, identifying a defective adb fastboot install on the Windows 10 system I was using. Switched to my primary Linux system and life got a whole lot better.

MANY MANY THANKS to you ( flash713) for suffering through my stupidity without insult, and helped me ID the correct ROM and provide good links that helped me figure out what to do with it once I had it. Seriously, I could not have done without your help. For the Moto G7 Plus XT1965-T, the stock ROM is LAKE_RETAIL_10_QPWS30.61-21-18-7_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip. The image below was from my first attempt with the correct ROM. I discovered that ADB Tools and Fastboot install on my Windows10 system was corrupt. GO LINUX!!!

Hi All,

Has anyone had an issue with Whitestone Dome customer service responding to warranty inquiries?

I have been using a Whitestone Dome glass screen protector on my last 3 phones. I've been very happy with the product and the few times I've shattered the screen protector, they were quick to replace it, via their warranty replacement program. (pay $10, send pics of broken screen protector)

This time it's very different. On Aug 11th (over a month ago) I uploaded proof of my shattered screen protector, paid the $10 and haven't heard back... No shipping info or estimate on when they would ship. I have sent FIVE emails to customer support and haven't heard back.

Has anyone had any luck lately with them?

Any suggestions on the next steps?

Thanks!

I'm in the exact same situation. I have paid for and received several replacements and all have shipped within a week of payment and approval. But something has definitely changed because I submitted my last one on Aug 5 and it took 30 days for them to approve it and I still have not received it yet. I've sent several messages but they are terrible when it comes to responding.

Hopefully they'll see these posts or someone will have a solution that has worked for them. Their protectors are great, but it gets to a point where you gotta ask is it really worth the hassle?

I'm going to start looking elsewhere for a replacement for future protection.
[General Topics] loricar:
Me too, for problems with Whitestone. I ordered directly from them in November, had a problem with their install jig and cracked the screen. Emailed back and forth for two months and finally just put in the warranty request and paid the $9.99. Weeks later, no replies, no screen glass, just a notification that I received a refund for the warranty replacement.

I have emailed several times asking why the warranty replacement was cancelled after being approved and paid for, but still no response at all. Not at all happy....seemed like it would be worth the high price as the reviews were so good and the warranty SOUNDED good, but I will stick with the less expensive brands that I have used in the past.

You know what you can try? Flash the official ROM for your phone first & lock the bootloader!

After you locked the bootloader, you can try flashing the Indian ROM, and see if it accepts the ROM.

If it doesn't let you flash the ROM, it will just show an error in Mi Flash, that way it can never brick the phone.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] RollDload:

I was almost gonna mention that I once hardbricked a Poco F3 🤣 but I kind of didn't want to scare him and sound like an idiot with my great tips xD

Try without formatting data first! I haven't done that myself, I was always on Weekly. But people here say it works without formatting data:

Update Xiaomi.eu from Stable to Weekly

Im using a mi 9t pro, i am on latest xiaomi.eu stable 11.0.5 MIUI 11 ANDROID 10 Can i switch to latest Xiaomi.eu Weekly without formating data or factory reset ?

xiaomi.eu

I recommend backing up your apps, messages etc. with Xiaomi's built in backup-feature, it's in Settings > My device > Back up and restore > Mobile device

If you do have to format data, you can restore from that backup and don't have to setup your apps again.

On AOSP you can use Swift Backup from Play Store, great alternative.

it's nice to experiment, even if sometimes the experiment doesn't work very well and turns a nice phone into a very expensive paperweight 😂😂 but this shouldn't make your useful advice less valid, on the contrary... From experiences like yours, reading many threads, I avoided doing a lot of damage.

I'll try without formatting first and see if it creates any problems. Of course, I always do a backup before doing any modding operation, it is the basis, even if the important things are already in the cloud and in various backups on the pc, I learned the hard way by mistakenly deleting the music folder with 200 gb of albums inside 😭, honestly I would have preferred a hardbrick.
