View attachment 5527321

But after this step, and rebooting, the phone shows the moto logo for less than a sec, and the screen goes back to black, can't even get to fastboot, time to get it to service?

Update: After spending a couple of hours reading and looking at forums, I realized that the phone was still detected by the pc but just in the wrong mode, then managed to bring it back to life using this:

I'll give it a try again next week with a g6+ to see if I have better luck

Over at http://www.htcwiki.com/page/ATT+TILT (HTC TILT WIKI) The second to last item above under "New Features, Software, Resources and How To's:" is "AT&T Tilt (Kaiser) Camera HotFix:" which contains a CAB file to "correct the cross pattern under Zoom when using the camera on your AT&T Tilt (Kaiser, TyTN II)" After installing this "fix" I no longer can see what I am taking pictures of...The "viewfinder" screen on the camera is dark. I do get all of the options "x", "Photo", 1x, Album, and Menu....but just the camera does not show what I am taking a picture of. After taking the picture , the actual picture displays correctly, but in the "picture Taking mode" it is blank....Any suggestions? The phone takes pictures OK, you just cannot see what you are taking a picture of!

[Moto G Power (2021)] sajk420:
Hello everyone,

First i want to thank everyone at XDA Forum community for being a great resource of information and providing great community support.

I purchased Moto G Power 2021 (Android 11), locked to verizon. I am trying to unlock it to be used on other carrier such as tmobile and for traveling. I came across websites that sell the unlock code.

However the problem is when NON-Verzion sim card is inserted in the phone, its does not ask for sim unlock code. Therefore not sure how to carrier unlock the phone.

If someone has insight how to go about network sim unlocking the phone, that will be very helpful and greatly appreciated. thank you
[Moto G Power (2021)] aerowerks:
i'm in the same boat
[Moto G Power (2021)] Jason Hugg:
Verizon is a cdma network and boost is a gsm network. The radio files included in your Verizon firmware probably aren't capable of connecting to a gsm network as the two networks operate on different frequencies and I assume employ different connection/communication protocols. You MIGHT could flash the firmware from boost for the same model, but even doing that could be frought with problems like if the boost firmware is older then anti rollback protection wouldn't allow it to boot when flashed, and I'm not sure if the Verizon and boost versions have exactly identical hardware, which could cause massive problems even if it did flash and boot. For example, this model phone has like 3 different touchscreens and using a firmware with the wrong touchscreen drivers would render the touchscreen useless. If you're determined to carrier unlock, be ready to do some serious digging and read everything you possibly can before doing anything that could have irreparable consequences. Best of luck 🙂
[Moto G Power (2021)] aerowerks:
mine is a cricket, I'm trying to go to T-mobile, same protocol, just don't want to pay the extra $$$
[Moto G Power (2021)] iBowToAndroid:
What's the model number of it?
[Moto G Power (2021)] Jason Hugg:
I'd imagine you maybe could flash the firmware for the carrier you want to switch to using the fastboot flash method, the rescue tool will only flash your phone's official firmware. But you can download different builds for different carriers off of lolinet and if they don't work you could flash the correct firmware to get back to where you are now. You might flash your official fw with the vendor stuff from the other carrier's rom if flashing the whole firmware doesn't take or isn't compatible in some way.
[Moto G Power (2021)] sajk420:
Hello sorry for late reply due to work i been busy.

its Motorola Moto G power (2021) XT2117-3.
[Moto G Power (2021)] sajk420:
Hello thank you for your advice, unfortunately i don't have much experience in flashing different firmware. Also i think it causes too many problems, which are difficult to fix. Therefore i was hoping if there is a way or hidden menu i gotta go into will activate the phone to ask for unlock code when different sim in inserted.
[Moto G Power (2021)] sajk420:
Tmobile is much cheaper in comparison to other carriers. I think once the phone is unlocked it will work pefectly.

When you insert a non-cricket sim card does your phone ask for network unlock code?
[Moto G Power (2021)] aerowerks:
yes, it does. it is network locked and "not eligible" for unlocking.

I called Cricket, but they won't unlock it because it hasn't been on their network for the six months they want.

I bought the phone really cheap on ebay for its long battery life., it's damaged (bent as if someone sat on it) but works fine, no cracked screen or anything else. I want to use it on my T-mobile account.
[Moto G Power (2021)] iBowToAndroid:
If you have a G Power 2021 from Cricket, then no, your device does NOT ask for an unlock code when you insert a non Cricket SIM
[Moto G Power (2021)] aerowerks:
it does not ask for a PIN to use it like a tablet.

I need it network unlocked so I can use it with different carrier.
[Moto G Power (2021)] aerowerks:
i downloaded the RETUS rom, i'll try to flash it and see what happens
[Moto G Power (2021)] mario0318:
I believe the issue of why it's not asking for unlock code may be two fold. For one, since you mentioned you bought the phone locked to Verizon, was it purchased from them or was this a second hand purchase like ebay/FBMarketplace etc? Because either way you'll have to meet the carrier minimum requirements for unlocking a device, the former scenario of you having bought the device yourself being much easier to deal with than the latter case.

Second, as was mentioned here earlier, you may be dealing with different hardware. I'm not sure if the G Power 2021 all contain the capabilities to run all network frequencies or not. But if it's hardware restricted or dissimilar to other models in kind based on network carriers & OEM agreements, you might not be getting the chance to input an unlock code because the third party SIM inserted may simply have no way of being recognized by the device, either from a software vendor blob limitation, a hardware radio restriction or lack of capable hardware, or both!
[Moto G Power (2021)] scorp006:
I know this is an old one, but was a solution ever found? Currently stuck with Moto G Power 2021 as well, locked to cricket. It doesn't prompt to enter a code either.
[Moto G Power (2021)] iBowToAndroid:
Only free solution is to meet all of Cricket's requirements, and have them do it for you. Otherwise a 3rd party company can do it, for a fee
[Moto G Power (2021)] scorp006:
That sounds better honestly. I'm open to using a 3rd party company, but point me in the right direction if possible. I've been looking, but no idea what service to use if the moto g power isn't asking for a code.

EDIT: Actually, I finally found someone at a reasonable price to do it, and it worked, phone unlocked. They used USB Redirector and did their thing. Took all of 10 minutes. Now I just need to flash a different rom to rid myself of the cricket bloatware.
[Moto G Power (2021)] Matiaco:
Have you tried another sim card in your phone, I'm pretty sure these all come unlocked by default. Mine was bought at US Cellular & I'm using a prepaid Verizon service by simply throwing the new sim card in the phone. It works perfectly as it did with US Cellular with no setup or changes required. I believe all moto g power phones do this I had a regular moto g power not 2021 that was on Verizon I switched to straight talk the exact same way.
[Moto G Power (2021)] iBowToAndroid:
Incorrect.
[Moto G Power (2021)] scorp006:
Actually, another random question, but is there no way to update without unlocking the bootloader? LMSA? Just making sure.
[OnePlus Nord N200 5G] scottylightning:
My phone is a T-Mobile branded DE2118; I have noticed this app in those secret launchers(I use Activity Launcher); I don't know Chinese at all and also when I set something I lose my signal for 5-10 minutes.

Regardless, this phone has the SD480 in it and apparently with the x51 modem it should have support for mmWave.

Is there any way to change/modify the bands at all within this app/program? Has anyone actually been successful with it at all?
[OnePlus Nord N200 5G] blowtorchhonor:
I have had success using com.oneplus.engmode for LTE band selection, making sure I set the signal to lte_only in the *#*#4636#*#* phone menu
[OnePlus Nord N200 5G] scottylightning:
Well, there's an issue; *#*#4636#*#* doesn't work for me......

I wonder if it was caused from when I bricked my phone a month ago?

Finding little information on this, i'd like to be able to use tasker to trigger things such as notifications or audio on the watch or send events to my phone, and preferable some mor eadvanced things so i can use the watch with my home automation, has anyone played around with this? i saw someone mention side loading apps somewhere but i lost the post, as i understand it LiteOS is a version of android so being able to load Tasker directly onto the watch would be nice.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shadow Wizard:
So, I am looking for an app, or a way to mark SMS apps as read automatically if they meet specific criteria.

I receive a notification from my bank every time I make a payment with my credit card. hats wonderful, except I get reminded about it ever 3 min! The reminder is awesome for my other text messages, but I don't need a constant reminder for ones from my credit card company. The easiest way I can see to do this is just to mark it as read as soon as it comes in, either by the fact it contains a specific string, or because it came from a specific number.

Anyone have any idea how I could do this? I am using a Zfold 3 on Android 12.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] James_Watson:
Is the reminder a feature of your SMS app? If yes, check whether it supports an exclusion list.
[Sony Xperia 5 III] jcms666:
Is someone getting 5g with T-Mobile?
[Sony Xperia 5 III] Yakkosmurf:
I live in the suburbs of a large Texas city. There's 5G coverage at my house and when I drive around the area. I don't get out a lot these days, but it's mostly 5G with a few pockets of LTE. I haven't done a lot of speed testing, but it has shown to be faster than LTE when the 5G signal is strong.
[Sony Xperia 5 III] jcms666:
You make feel better because I thought that the phone 5g doesn't work in the states but must be that Oregon infrastructure is not quite as good yet
[Sony Xperia 5 III] jcms666:
Can you share your apn configuration to check if it's something related with that?

I use manual APN selection.
[Sony Xperia 5 III] jcms666:
Can you show me that apn configuration to see if mine its exactly the same please
[Sony Xperia 5 III] calamari:
Notes: I have the US version of the phone. Measuring on Google Maps, I'm approx 675 ft from the cell tower. All three speed results are from the same tower (used the CellMapper app to verify), and same SIM card, with the 5G and LTE+ speed results from the Sony Xperia 5 III and the 4G speed result from an Asus Zenfone 4 ZE554KL I was upgrading from. In order to get LTE+ on the Sony, I forced the "LTE/WCDMA/GSM" setting.
[Sony Xperia 5 III] SludgeFactory:
Where were you able to find a US version of the phone?
[Sony Xperia 5 III] calamari:
Amazon (and sold by Amazon). Looks like it's only 3rd party sellers now, hopefully it'll restock soon? B091XR54FH
[Sony Xperia 5 III] mcc111:
There's an interesting [web app](https://www.nperf.com/en/map/US/-/85.T-Mobile-inc-Sprint/signal/?ll=45.50249699389715&lg=-122.71728515625001&zoom=9) I found trying to answer this question in Ontario. It shows experimentally gathered hyperlocal data about where within cities different speeds were measured on different providers... I don't know how trustworthy the data is for sure but it seems to suggest 5g coverage often varies wildly within a single city currently.

I bought mine direct from electronics dot sony dot com. They have the green color that Amazon does not carry and they keep doing steep sales. As of this second it is $100 off.
[Sony Xperia 5 III] Milk Tea:
I highly recommend using https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cz.mroczis.netmonster to show what kind of 5G you are connecting to. For example, my S22 Ultra typically does either SA 5G 600MHz (not supported by Sony) or NSA 5G over 1900MHz.
[Sony Xperia 5 III] calamari:
According to T-Mobile frequency bands page: "Frequencies that can provide XR 5G:

Band n71 (600 MHz)".

According to Sony's website, Xperia 5 III specifications page: "5G Band

n1, n2, n3, n5, n7, n8, n20, n28, n38, n40, n41, n66, n71, n77, n78".

So by the specs, the phone should be able to handle n71 just fine.

What about in reality? Well, the tower near my house has band n71, and my US Xperia 5 III (Android 12) was just connected to it. I took a cellmapper screenshot, attached.

In summary: 5G 600MHz works fine on US Xperia 5 III.
[Sony Xperia 5 III] calamari:

[Sony Xperia 5 III] Milk Tea:
NSA isn't SA.

[OnePlus 9 Pro] Nickdroid86:
My unlocking is greyed out. Is there a way to get the bootloader unlocked? I really want to get a pixel style rom and get rid of T-Mobile crap
[OnePlus 9 Pro] vponomarev:
Technically you would want to SIM-unlock your phone first - this will enable the "OEM Unlock" toggle, but thanks to @Ju5t3nC4s3, you can skip that and, assuming you already have the unlock token from OnePlus, just do the following:

1. Run: adb shell pm disable-user com.qualcomm.qti.uim

2. Go to Developer Options and flip the OEM Unlock toggle

3. Now run: adb shell pm enable com.qualcomm.qti.uim

4. From now on the toggle will be disabled again, but now in "on" mode

5. Reboot to fastboot

6. Run: fastboot flash cust-unlock unlock_code.bin

7. Run: fastboot oem unlock

Keep in mind that unlocking the bootloader will factory reset the phone, so make sure you backup all the data from it before doing that.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Ju5t3nC4s3:
Actually

I found away around the factory reset also, lol
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Ju5t3nC4s3:
Could just use my tool. https://xdaforums.com/t/one-_tool-w...ader-unlock-enabler-engineer-decrypt.4378651/
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Nickdroid86:
Looks like I need to go buy a laptop, was hoping to avoid that lol.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Nickdroid86:
Also, I don't have an unlock token. Didn't know that was a thing with OnePlus guess I been out of it for a while
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Ju5t3nC4s3:
Once u flip the switch u can easly get token needed to sumbmit to oneplus. What model do u have. Theres other ways to do it without having to get the unlock.bin from oneplus
[OnePlus 9 Pro] CZ Eddie:
I got my token from OP but even after installing it, I'm still SIM locked.

I can flash ROM's though.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Ju5t3nC4s3:
Oem_Unlock will not sim unlock the device .
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Nickdroid86:
this is not working. I am using the tool and I got OEM unlocking toggled on and then re-greyed out in the on position. Not sure what to do next. Nothing seems to be working and there's no sounds in the video so I have no clue what's being done.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Nickdroid86:
Is it true all of this is pointless because my SIM is not unlocked????
[OnePlus 9 Pro] vponomarev:
No, only T-Mobile can SIM-unlock your phone - you are probably getting error 255 right now when you try requesting a permanent unlock.

There is a strict requirement that phone must stay registered on T-Mobile's network for a few days (I think, three). Before that no one will be able to SIM-unlock your phone. After 3 days call T-Mobile support and ask nicely for SIM-unlock. They will probably tell you that you have to first pay-off your phone and wait 40 days. Ask even more nicely and give some reason. I used "I want to unlock this phone for development purposes".

It may take a few tries and pure luck to get to a rep that will be willing to help you.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Nickdroid86:
Ok so for my question. Do I need to do this to unlock my bootloader and root? I thought that the all in one tool posted above didn't require that SIM be unlocked but I'm not seeing how because it's not working.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] vponomarev:
What exactly is not working?

Just get the latest platform tools and run those commands I mentioned earlier after enabling USB debugging. Worked for me even before I was able to SIM-unlock my phone.

If you're planning to use your phone with T-Mobile, it doesn't matter that your phone stays SIM-locked, but the most important part is to request unlock token from OnePlus, so if you haven't done so yet, do it ASAP - for some reason they don't send it to you right away, but wait exactly 7 days.

Here are the instructions: https://xdaforums.com/t/how-to-unlock-the-t-mobile-bootloader.4256319/
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Nickdroid86:
I was able to get it to work up to the unlock token. Now I'm waiting on a response from Oneplus since Sunday.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Cynamn63:
I got my Tmobile Oneplus 9 Pro sim unlocked but it still shows my network locked and OEM is still grayed out. Any suggestions...?
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Ju5t3nC4s3:
How did u get the sim unlocked, sounds like you dont have it fully unlocked.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Nickdroid86:
So I got my code and then got this, but my phone didn't reset?

I have installed Lineage 18.1 on my Galaxy S10+ SM-G975F (Exynos). I have a 128GB SD card that I can save files and apps to but when I connect the phone to my linux desktop I can see the SD card but no internal storage.

I have the Brave browser app that I have given storage permission to the SD card but when I download an app it appears to have been downloaded but it wont install.

I also have music files on the SD card but the music app cannot find them

I can download an app on my computer and then transfer it to the phone and install it but I cannot do it via the phone.

I suspect it has something to do with permissions but I am at a loss to how to fix it.

Any help would be most appreciated.

Other issues (may be related?). The music and camera app that come with Lineage do not load and the phone app cannot find my contacts .vcf card that is on the SD card.

Is there any way to enable VoLTE or wifi calling for US carriers. Maybe by rooting or adb commands? I'm using the x70 pro plus on tmobile and it's only showing H when making phone calls and I don't see any option to enable VoLTE or wifi calling.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] DJorgio:
Im using wifi calling, the option is under Mobile Network, SIM 1
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Rapid bunny:
I'm using the Chinese 512 gb version, I don't see that option. What version of the x70 pro plus do you have?
[Vivo X70 Pro+] DJorgio:
That's the same version I have too, dual SIM - In Australia (perhaps it only shows what the SIM is capable of)?

View attachment 5526861
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Rapid bunny:
If I reset my network settings the HD icon is shown in the status bar showing that VoLTE is enable but there is no toggle for the VoLTE in my settings.

Restarting my phone gets rid of the HD icon meaning the VoLTE is no longer enabled
[Vivo X70 Pro+] piskr:
Yes, and if you toggle VoLTE setting, you get the icon back. But this is not a useful discovery. The fact is that with or without the icon, I never really have VoLTE. But the answer may be in provider, my phone is not listed as enabled. With iPhone, which is listed, and the same provider VoLTE is active. I'll be travelling this month, have two different sims and see what happened.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Rapid bunny:
There is no VoLTE toggle in my settings. The HD icon just indicates if my phone is connected to the VoLTE service.

Reseting my network settings enables the VoLTE on my phone but it is disabled when I restart my phone and only shows H when I make calls until I reset my network settings.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Rapid bunny:
Does your settings have a VoLTE toggle?
[Vivo X70 Pro+] piskr:
But your provider supports VoLTE and you do have a Chinese x70 pro+? What about VoWIFI, I can see that you have it enabled, does it work?

Try to update phone app if it is possible or clear cash and data of it. I have this menu but so far VoLTE doesn't really work.

And one more question. Why would you need VoLTE if you have VoWIFI enabled?
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Rapid bunny:
My carrier tmobile support VoLTE. I attached a screenshot of what my sim settings look like. I don't have a toggle for VoLTE or VoWIFI but VoLTE is enabled if I reset my network settings until I restart my phone.

I need VoLTE to work because in a few months the 2g and 3g bands for my carrier are getting shut shutdown and I will need VoLTE to make or receive calls.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] piskr:
Ok, sorry about VoWIFI, it was another guy who published this option. Have you tried to reset phone app data and cache? Have you checked APN? have you ever tried to enable 5g and roaming? Tried to contact the t mobile service about VoLTE?

There is one more options to enable and change some phone options but it's very delicate, hence be really careful with it. It's a service number *#*#4636#*#*

At least shows you what options are really enabled on your phone.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] piskr:
I just got a sim card from a friend who has VoLTE from long ago. I tried it and can confirm that I didn't even get an option to enable VoLTE. Therefore, the option from my sim is fake, and it's obvious that VoLTE doesn't work on this phone right now.

I hope that Vivo would address and fix the issue soon.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Rapid bunny:
VoLTE is finally working on the new update but still missing the toggles
