I was originally going to buy this...

But I didn't like how dangly looking it was. Plus it doesn't have a universal audio plug, just the HTC proprietary one. So I held off.

Then I saw this on Amazon:

... and I had to have it! It has a standard 3.5mm audio jack for NORMAL headphones, and a normal mini-USB socket for charging. It says you can do both at the same time, but I was skeptical. However the price was so great, I had to try it out.

It's only $4.35 + $1.19 shipping from Semsons

Here's the link to the item if you want to buy it (pick the new and used, it lists for more on the Amazon main link):

http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B000UHY6XU/ref=dp_olp_2

second link if the above one doesn't work:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000UHY6XU

So it came a week and a half after I bought it... not the fastest ship, but not unacceptable either. What I like about it: The headphone jack is SOLID, doesn't wiggle, neither does a headphone plug when inserted into it. It has a solid *CLICK* when you push it all the way in.

The sound on my Seinhauser premium earbuds is AMAZING on WMP. But the real test was to plug in the charger and see if while it charges if it will still play sound out the audio jack. It does!

I had to trim mine because I have a crystal hardshell, and it wouldn't seat all the way in until I used an xacto knife to trim some of the soft plastic. Worked perfectly. I'm very happy!

I use the "Tweak" Media Player 10 Pocket PC skin... and I gotta tell ya, this thing is so easy to use as a media center... total iPod Touch killer with my Manila 2D and this. I just need a 16GB card and I'm set.

SO, I highly recommend this audio adapter to anyone. It sounds great (loud as hell, and REALLY clear, too!), it's small, and you can indeed charge it at the same time. I have also verified that you can connect through Activesync while audio plays clearly out to headphones or an output cable to whatever else you want (car stereo, home theater system, etc.).

Edit: Added a video demo of the adapter so you can see how it looks on the phone. I also wiggled the adapter while it was inserted so you can observe the usual play with HTC mini-USB ports and most mini-USB plugs.

It looks like it's difficult to push into the phone's mini-USB port, but it's just because I'm doing it with one hand (the other holding the video recorder). It actually goes in without difficulty, but once it is all the way in, it's not loose in terms of falling out, not by a longshot. There is some side to side wiggle play however. The wiggle is minimal, like I said it's about the same as most other cords and whatnot that you would plug in; this is due to the proprietary HTC D-style socket... it's not as snug as a standard mini-USB socket would be.

You wouldn't want to leave this in the phone all the time. It would probably be part of your choice of headphones, only carried when you need them, or left in your car for when you want to hook to your car stereo's aux. input.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] burtcom:
Thanks mightily for the review -- I think I'm gonna get this too.

Is this something you would leave in all the time if you could? If my phone with this attached would fit in my case, or if I could get a slightly larger case, I might consider leaving it in to save wear and tear on the device's USB connector.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Suleeto:
I wouldn't want to leave it in all the time, no... it's not huge, but it's not tiny either. Also, our HTC mini-USB ports on our phones tend to be loose with most mini-USB plugs, and this is no different. I didn't mention that in the review because that's the case with most connectors, not just this audio adapter. Anyways, even if it was more snug, you can damage and even break off the mini-USB socket on the inside of the phone. It happened with my 8125, and with a friend's Motorola RAZR.

This is something to keep with your favorite headphones, or in your car (if you want to hook into your car stereo's auxillary if it has that). You wouldn't leave headphones connected to the phone at all times, so consider this more on the side of the headphones than the phone.

Here's a picture for a size reference.

This picture shows the angle I had to cut to make it work with hardshell covers... I also had to cut a small notch on the output side:

I'm adding a video to my original post on here, it shows the adapter and lets you get a feel for how it fits on the phone itself.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] burtcom:
Thanks for the vid -- yes, I can see that it would be all to easy to snag or bend the adapter and potentially break the device's USB connector.

So, I'll get one, but I won't leave it in all the time :)

Thanks for the review, I bought one... Can't beat that price!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] crissg:
Works just fine

I've been using this adaptor for a few months, and I can vouch for its ease of use and quality. I actually use this every day at my desk to play audio through a clock radio. The only issue I've had is that I can't use the adapter and plug in the charge cable when it is in my car mount. The cable has to come out to the side and the mount is too thick for the cable to fit. Other than that, I'm quite happy with it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Suleeto:
Here is what you need:

http://www.aftermarketcellular.com/cart/images/thumb/SKN6182.gif

Edit: Nevermind, I noticed the USB port points it the wrong direction. Still, it will work for just charging without the audio adapter. I use it with a charge cable when holding the phone in landscape, keeps the cord from sticking outward into my palm.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] xconradx:
Got mine in the mail today! Very fast shipping, took two days to get!

I am really impressed, I think I may sell my iPod. The sound quality is excellent though my cars stock Bose stereo and though my generic headphones. Goes really loud as well.

Thanks for the review!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] asfoor:
Thanks for the tip and the review. I had a different adapter, but I just ordered the one you raved about...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] freekquency:
Thanks for the rev iew, just ordered one, hell w/ expedited shipping its still only 10 bucks, says new slim-er model is shipping now also. I use industrial strength velcro to mount my Tilt in my Merc. Sable. Dont laugh i know it sounds white trash but going thru all the possibilities it is the easiest and cheapest way yet to secure the phone. The thing im stoked for is i use a bodyglove carrying case really nice protective rubber case but while at work using stereo bluetooth a real pain to keep the phone protected and plugged in. With this i sh9ould be able to cut one small hole in my case and the adapter will ride out side the case to plugin to fm/transmitter or my power cord. Thanks again for the heads up on this device! Cant wait to get the live bob marley i got on my bluetooth, pumping out of my car stereo too. :)

This is the one thing that the iphone has on us IMO. The fact that there are 3 billion places to buy ipod/iphone accesories. At&t seems to refuse to carry anything of the sort, even in downtown boston at the stores where they have everything. And forget radio shack, the kids in there only know how to sign you up for a contract, gone are the days of the geeks at radio shack knowing what their talking about. :(

I use industrial Velcro to mount my iPod on that dash of my Acura TL. It works out really nice, looks seamless. People have laughed at me until they see how clean it looks with the wires running under the dash.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] -haze-:
Yup, I've been using this for a long time now in my car with my AUX adapter and it's great that I can charge it while I'm listening to music. Also, if I have my Jawbone in my ear, the calls get routed right to the bluetooth while I'm listening and does not come over the car speakers. As soon as I hang up the call, my audio starts playing again. It's great.

It's a very very annoying feature. A power button that has no correlation to powering off the phone.

To shut down. You have to press and hold the power button and volume up key together and you will get the option to switch off/restart your phone.

Device: Oneplus 8 pro

I have tried to install PixelExperience ROM by following their official WIKI: https://wiki.pixelexperience.org/devices/instantnoodlep/install/

And everything worked perfectly, the phone butted into custom rom without any issues.

Just after doing so, I rebooted the phone to bootloader and proceeded to install custom "avb_custom_key" in order to lock OEM again. After completing this step the phone doesn't boot, it displays yellow message "your device has loaded a different operating system" and just boots into bootloader menu.

I can't unlock OEM again because I can't reach developer menu.

Any ideas or did I just screwed up big time?

@Biggitybaked

The model you have (XT2163-6) is the AT&T variant of the Moto G Pure. The carrier doesn't allow unlocking the bootloader.

With that said, you can give an unofficial MediaTek reverse engineering tool named MTKClient a try. Only proceed if you know what you're doing.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Biggitybaked:
That's what I figured. Ill never buy as phone from a carrier again. Thank you for confirming. And ima look into that MTKClient and see if I can do it. Wish me luck. haha!

But ... what are the prerequisites (along with that app from MediaTek) for making the phone enter brom mode? Without JTAG, serial interface or "test points". A way for mere mortals like me, to allow me to unlock the damn bootloader, which Motorola (aka Lenovo) was plotting with Verizons, to keep us, legitimate owners of their stupid phones, out of the bootloader...

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KMerrimanJr:
When using mtk client, power off the phone and disconnect the usb. While off, hold both VOL - & VOL + then plug in the usb while the client is running. Mtk client will automatically recognize your device I've used the same method for all versions of mtk devices with 100% success. The partitions pull as bin files but i just use a converter to solve that issue
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KMerrimanJr:
While Mtk client is running:

1. Power off device & disconnect the usb

2. Plug in usb while holding VOL - & VOL +

Successfully rooted my Moto G Pure (RRHS31.Q3-46-110-13):

OEM unlock was grayed out, so I used Motorola RSA to download the stock ROM, then after locating the ROM files, used Magisk 25.2 to patch the boot.img. I flashed the stock ROM using the RESCUE option in RSA then setup my phone once the process was complete. I enabled Developer Options as well as, the now available, OEM unlock and went through the steps to flash the patched boot.img from earlier. I've attached the stock boot and am currently using LSPosed in place of EdXposed

Would love some help on this. I have my stock firmware and boot.img ready for my model (not on hand right now, but it's a US ATT moto g pure,) but am unable to get past the bootloader. When I got the phone, OEM unlocking was greyed out in the settings, but after about 2 days that suddenly changed. I was able to enable it, and it seemed to take. Going to the official Moto website for unlock said my device wasn't eligible. I have mtkclient set up, and I can get into recovery and fastboot just fine, but for the life of me, trying every button combination for about an hour couldn't get it to go. I also tried going straight for the unlock command in fastboot, but that didn't work either. Any advice? Maybe I still managed to time it wrong. If I am holding both volume buttons, or any combination that includes the lower volume button, it goes straight to recovery
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KMerrimanJr:
To get into fastboot, power of the G Pure then hold vol - & power. vol + goes into a bootleg recovery but selecting it from the fastboot gui goes into a legit recovery. As for the OEM unlock, if it greys out just go into "About Phone" and tap "Update Carrier Configuration". Once all of that is done, type: fastboot oem unlock <your device key from Motorola>

Before I got my code I tried "fastboot oem unlock" without the code and my device displayed the unlock screen but without the key it doesn't really unlock it.

Now to answer your question:

I haven't found the combination to register the G Pure on MTK Client. Usually you'd hold vol - & vol + while connecting the USB but so far no luck on that. I'll investigate the existence of a bootloader device ID keygen to help you out, so give me a day to post my findings.

I also would like to know what your specs are as well as your unlock data and bootloader version (MBM) so that I can narrow my search.

My bootloader (TMO) is unlocked and my MBM is:

MBM-2.1-ellis_t-806030bb55-221125

If you have the same version that means ATT isn't authorizing Motorola to fulfill your key request, which means your bootloader CAN be unlocked.

If necessary, you might have to take this route:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KMerrimanJr:
Ok, done a little digging and found out that MTK client won't register the G Pure unless you use the test points. The only way to do that is to open the device 👎 and I don't think that's a viable option. You may have to change the bootloader. The good news with that is your bootloader doesn't have to be unlocked to flash oem signed images. I'll keep you up to date on what I find
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GackleCrackle:
Much appreciated effort! I'll read into what goes into changing bootloaders. I haven't dealt with android systems in a while, but always fun to mess around with. As far as test points would be concerned, would that be trying to ground some memory out? Because I do have an electronics workbench, that isn't out of the question. I will get you the unlock data and mbm tonight when I get back. I assume that info would be listed on the recovery screen?

I have the XT2163-6 build number S3RHS32.20-42-10-3 that came with the option to allow oem unlock clickable. I don't have access to a PC but was able to get it to fastboot mode with Bugjaeger. It took the fastboot oem unlock command, wiped it with no problems but the bootloader doesn't seem to really be unlocked. In the process I stupidly left the patched magisk boot image on the device instead of the sd card. Then I couldn't get magisk to flash the boot image again and the phone updated to Android 12. After changing almost every app permission on the device I was able to get magisk to finally flash the boot image again and now it allows me to make either magisk or termux the debugging app. I'm attaching the magisk log in hopes that someone can help me because I'm honestly not sure what I'm doing and bricking my phone would be extremely inconvenient at the moment but I really want the device rooted for many reasons. I have the entire firmware but can't get mtkclient to work on the other moto so termux and Bugjaeger are all I have to work with.
