This is what I did too and how I unlocked my bootloader. Tempted to flash retail but I'm worried about breaking something,
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] fatmanSings:
You can always flash back to original firmware with the motorola tool too.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] jimmie32:
I've tried to flash to both the RETAIL and RETEU software channels with my US edge+.

It works and even activates eSIM for the boost variant, however PIN unlock will NOT work. It will take the PIN just fine and enroll fingerprints, but only fingerprint unlock works. After reboot PIN is required and the PIN will always be invalid even though I made sure to type it in correctly.

I tried flashing both the radio + system or just system and the error shows up both ways.

Flashing back to RTWO_G_T1TR33.43_48_21_subsidy_BOOST_DISH_regulatory_DEFAULT_cid50_CFC will restore all functionality (but take away eSIM).
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] DeSlaye:
Interesting thank you! Did you ever try to relock the bootloader after flashing RETAIL? I’ve been debating flashing retail as I really need eSIM support. How did you unlock the phone if PIN didn’t work?
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] jimmie32:
I don't want to risk relocking the bootloader as the OEM unlocking can be stuck for Moto phones and I'll end up having a brick on my hands.

If PIN doesn't work I can't unlock the phone after a reboot. So it's useless for me.

I think there's something up in the system image that breaks the PIN. I tried the following combos:

* Full flash RETAIL/RETEU: PIN can be set, after going to Settings - Security PIN immediately shows incorrect, cannot enable developer options as PIN is always incorrect

* Flash BOOST, then flash RETAIL boot.img/vbmeta.img/super.img: PIN can be set, Settings - Security PIN and developer options can correctly recognize the PIN, but once phone is locked PIN is always invalid

In any case the phone is useless for me if I can't set a PIN. I have to factory reset from fastboot to get access to it again.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] DeSlaye:
Interesting. A lot of the people who switched from CN to EU had the same issues with the pin not working but they said it went away after force rebooting a couple of times so I wonder if the same strategy would work here.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] jimmie32:
Thank you!!! I don't know why I haven't tried the golden way of fixing things...

A reboot fixed my PIN problems. It seems to work consistently now. I'm using the Boost radio + RETEU system. No carrier bloatware...

Actually no, even on RETEU the Boost garbage gets provisioned through Carrier App. Time for another factory reset...

Funny it shows both slots as eSIM-capable but SIM 1 is actually the physical slot.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] DeSlaye:
Going to do the same thing with my Moto but with RETUS haha. I’ll be locking my bootloader after I confirm everything works though. One guy in the thread said he relocked his bootloader going from CN to EU and that everything still worked but he couldn’t unlock his bootloader anymore.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] jimmie32:
Yes, that's what I am worried about. But maybe using Motorola/Lenovo Recovery to go back to full stock would enable the OEM toggle again. I'm not willing to risk this though...

Can I ask where you'd get the RETUS ROM? Lolinet only shows RETEU or RETAIL.

I'm basically waiting for LineageOS since I don't like the Moto bloatware but it's fun to play with the firmware options available. Shame I can't get a way to reset the software channel or ro.carrier so it is stuck on DISH Wireless (I tried fastboot oem config carrier reteu but it still shows as Dish...)
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] DeSlaye:
Someone in the Lolinet telegram shared a link to it. For some reason they didn’t upload it to the directory though. Someone should probably do that haha. Hm still being on Dish Wireless sounds like it might be a problem for OTA updates
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] fatmanSings:
There must be a way of flashing it to a stock RETUS and keeping the region US since there are non-carrier versions out there right?

Seems unlikely Boost will provide an update to unlock the esim capability...
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] DeSlaye:
Yeah, there should be. Maybe the modem? I’m not sure
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] jimmie32:
The RETUS firmware is available on lolinet now: https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/motorola/rtwo/official/

The ro.carrier property that controls Software Channel is hard-coded in the device persistent partitions and can't be changed. So either way it'll show DISH Wireless, it seems. Not sure how this will interact with the OTAs after doing fastboot oem to set the carrier property to retus (this will not change ro.carrier)

I'll try the RETUS firmware shortly and debloat some of the stuff. But mostly I want to wait for LineageOS.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] jimmie32:
I have flashed the RETUS firmware (radio+system, RTWO_G_T1TR33.43-48-21_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_cid50_CFC).

eSIM support is not available. Software channel shows as DISH Wireless. PIN, etc. work flawlessly out of the box.

Looks like the only way for eSIM support is RETEU or RETAIL firmware. Watch out and make sure the CID matches (cid50 or 0x0032 in hex) or you might screw up the phone flashing other region firmwares.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] DeSlaye:
Seems like we won’t get OTA updates. These people used a separate command to be able to get OTA updates without changing the software channel though. Not sure if it would work here

so is it confirmed that we could enable esim on edge+ from boost? any quick complete tutorial for newbie? thanks
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] fatmanSings:
Can you confirm the functionality of RETAIL or RETEU firmware? Are you sure everything works with it?
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] jimmie32:
I was able to download a eSIM fine the first time I flashed RETEU and it looked like I could get a signal, but I didn't keep using that ROM since I was having PIN issues (now resolved). But I think RETEU should be fine for Boost variants to get eSIM.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] blueice98:
there was another thread indicating that verizon 5g wouldn't work with RETEU firmware.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] fatmanSings:
I didn't think the Edge+ even had the bands for verizon 5g...

What ROM are you using now?
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] jimmie32:
LineageOS TrebleDroid GSI. There’s no fingerprint support but otherwise it works for me while I wait for a proper ROM
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] blueice98:

If you don't want to flash the RETEU radio (I tried with and without, didn't make a noticeable difference) you can remove the radio and bluetooth lines.

Again, never relock the bootloader and never do fastboot erase all or you will lose the CID / unlock / IMEI.

I tried flashing RETEU, RETUS, and RETAIL dan change the channel on my XT2301-5 (RETCN) model but eSIM is not working.. it always asked me to get EID number..

I guess it wont work on RETCN XT2301-5
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] julien note 4:
So, I don't know if it helps someone. I bought the canadian version and for whatever reason they locked the e-sim on it. So much so for buying an "unlocked" version. I was looking for a way to unlock the e-sim without voiding the warranty because I think I'm going to return it. Even if the Canadian version is also XT2301-1, the official Motorola rescue app doesn't work if I use it to put the Retus rom on the phone. I played with fastboot a bit and the bootloader says that the vendor and carrier tags are updated in the bootloader by the devices' kernel every time the system boots up. Also, the bootloader seems to be autodetecting which variant of the edge 40 family it is at every boot. So that might be why the reteu version works with the boost locked edge+. Anyway, it looks like all those tags are oem locked with the bootloader. There must be a way to unlock the e-sim in some test mode, but I didn't find it yet.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] blueice98:
I wonder what firmware used for retail version at bestbuy? it should support both psim+esim.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] Ascertion:
I was able to flash RETUS after unlocking. Thank you. eSIM is still hidden, no idea how to change software channel. I'm a bit nervous I won't be able to get OTAs now though since it still says DISH. When I check for moto firmware in rescue app, it says Dish firmware. I want to ultimately relock bootloader once everything is set to fully RETUS.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] blueice98:
RETUS wouldn't enable esim. Try EU or retail rom
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] axd1152:
I am waiting for some to try reteu rom as well. Please report back with the results if you decide to try. I have edge plus 2022 and wanted to see if flashing reteu would enable dual sim for me. Although, my phone has 2 sim slots instead of esim
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] MachampsFifthArm:
If you Flash RETUS onto PG/Boost variant, root w/ Magisk, use MagiskHide Props Config Module, you can enable eSim adding 3 Custom Props! I loaded a T-Mobile eSim.

esim.enable_esim_system_ui_by_default true

masterclear.allow_retain_esim_profiles_after_fdr true

ro.setupwizard.esim_cid_ignore 0x0000
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] axd1152:
Will that work to not esim, but a physical sim? Or do i have to use different commands?
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] MachampsFifthArm:
Not sure about other phones. Maybe other custom prop edits. Also for everyone who needs IMEI2 number it shows in Moto Rescue info. The hard coded Boost variant garbo blocks visibility of IMEI2 in settings, tho I bet that could be Prop Edited as well?
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] fatmanSings:
I want to try this. Which RETUS firmware did you use? Is everything (including NFC + bank apps) working?
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] MachampsFifthArm:
RETUS and everything works flawlessly probably even better. Banking apps/NFC you need Universal SafetyNet Fix by displax, enable Zygisk in Magisk and then place Banking Apps or any app that complains about root onto the DenyList in Magisk. Then for Netflix/Hulu/Disney+ etc you need liboemcrypto disabler module and also put them on DenyList. But MagiskHideProps can enable eSim Menu on BOOST firmware as well. Then there is RETAIL firmware which has eSim Menu by default without any extra sorcery and is basically the same as RETUS and everything just works as well. All confirmed and tested by yours truly.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] blueice98:
Thanks! does the boost phone have to be rooted and install a new firmware? can the esim be enabled directly on existing boost firmware without rooting? Thanks!
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] MachampsFifthArm:
Just need Bootloader Unlock to install new firmware. So if you want eSim Menu without root just use RETAIL fw. Although I have not tested Verizon service on RETAIL rom. Verizon is confirmed working on BOOST/RETUS. When the first firmwares were available for download it was only International Versions which did enable eSim Menu like CA or EU versions but it wouldn't take to a Verizon Sim. EU and others don't do 5G NSA Network Slicing(DSS) like Verizon and ATT do here in the states. Those roms likely disable some core Verizon bands as well.

RETUS or Boost need root to enable eSim Menu. Now if you wait the entire 1 year after purchase and get it unlocked, Boost will likely push an update at the one year mark for those with their one year in to enable eSim Menu on BOOST rom.

Also if loading an eSim you'll need IMEI2 and EID which can be found through dialer code *#06# as the IMEI2 isn't listed in the settings no matter the rom because Moto hardcoded the Software Channel from changing.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] blueice98:
Thanks! I just got a bootloader unlock code from motorola. could you help list more detailed steps for enabling esim? can I keep the boost firmware rather than installing a new retail fw? I got my phone sim-unlocked from ebay, but found that it worked on AT&T and tmobile, but didn't work for xfinity mobile. not sure if it will work for verizon as i thought xfinity uses verizon network.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] 1dopewrx05:
So I did everything you said with magisk and the necessary props, got the eSIM loaded on the phone but boost is still blocking the sim from being able to get any data or be used. I loaded my Google Fi eSIM on it and while it worked and the dialer service menu shows that the Fi SIM is getting 5G connection, the software won't let me use it or set it. I have two signal bars now indicating 2 sims but the Boost is getting signal which the Fi has 0 signal. I can confirm that I should have full service with Fi at my house, my S23 Ultra gets a full bar 5G connection with this same eSIM in this same spot so it's definitely something else software wise thats blocking it from being able to be used. Any clues?

I checked all props again and the values held fine after multiple reboots. I feel like there is another value I need but idk so I only changed the 3 you said to do
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] beenieman7:
Hey there. I'm abroad now and boost mobile doesn't let me unlock the phone until 1 year passes, only 1 month passed since my purchase. It asks me for a code to unlock the sim. I unlocked the bootloader and flashed the RETEU rom and esim download option appeared. But when I successfully install esim from the local carrier it asks for another code for a second sim. Now both sims are locked. Software channel is still Dish Wireless. How did you manage to load esim from T-Mobile if you're still on contract with Boost? Any luck to unlock the device's sim? Boost mobile support refused me to give a code, maybe there's an other option via software tweaking, rooting, etc.

[Vivo X Fold] titowsky:
Hello,

On my beloved Vivo X Fold2 I have an issue with the control center: it seems the music player area is intended to support the Vivo Music app only.

There is no other ways to control music from any other app (e.g. Apple Music) than going directly back into the app itself (the player does not even appear on the lockscreen or in the notifications).

Did I miss an option for that... or is there a workaround that does not require rooting?

Thank you very much in advance.

Is your S3 Neo randomly rebooting? Try this!

1. Remove the SD card and try to use it without the SD card. (worked for me)

2. Remove SIM card and try to use it without it.

3. Try a factory reset.

4. Try replacing your battery.

5. Re-install your stock rom or try a custom rom.

If all fails, then your issue might be with hardware.

So I decided to make a kernel a few week back and it has been going really well. But lately I have had the issue that the default value of scaling_max_freq is a value above stock when the device has booted. This is not great since it can lead to some devices miscalculating and crashing I immediately after booting, but I can't find a way to do it, preferably without modifying the system partition. Any ideas?
