Update through samba share corrupted the installation
After putting the tar file in the update folder through samba (double checking the file was not corrupt). I rebooted the MX. It started loading the Kernel and system files and checked the MD5. All okay. But during update it reported some strange numbers (cannot recall at the moment). And dropped to a command line. I think it was write the files but failed. It did mention something about failing some mount. I had to reboot in recovery mode and update that way. I was wondering if this is a known issue and how to prevent it in the future.

I have a few of these CMX clone boxes laying arround from geekbuying.com. One of them refuses any rom (even the original one). I now resort to editing updater-script and remove checks (first few asserts). This box was fine until I installed a matricom image (latest). After that I was no longer able to do normal recovery procedure. Any ideas?

No that's not a known issue. I'm updating my box several times a day during development and never encountered such issue.
[BUG] 4.2.1 Enabling Wifi on Clean install
Hi
There seems to be an issue with v4.2.1 on a clean install from matricom's v1.1.6. If you enable wifi, the device crashes. If you upgrade from a previous version it's fine. Anyone else experience this or not? On that note, the new driver is working great. Fixes an issue I had with intermittent signal
when choosing the new power off from the system menu, the device appears to shut down, however stays on the blue led. using the power button on the remote then makes it switch to the red led (=really off). this also means that if i only shut down through the menu, next time i want to use the device i would have to push the power button twice.
does the device really shut down through the menu (with low/no power consumption) or is it a kind of sleeping state?

Unfortunately MX2 cannot be completely powered off programmatically. Powering the box off from the shutdown menu, puts it into sleep (suspend) state. But again, unfortunately you cannot wake it up from that state, you need to power off/power on it again.
Wifi Bug? 4.2.1
Hi Codesnake,
Firstly - Thanks! I cant believe how professional this is, even things I didn't think would ever work (usb audio, certain video formats etc) are now working perfectly.
I had a couple of issues with one of the boxes I was running it on, so I decided to factory reset and install 4.2.1 clean. I found I was unable to connect to my wireless network (invalid arguments). Everything worked fine on Beta 6.
So, I downgraded to Beta 6 and sure enough was able to connect. Then I upgraded to 4.2.1 and wireless continued to work.
Not a problem unless you install fresh, but thought you may like to know.
OpenElec on Amlogic S805
Hi Codesnake,
I'm interested on how it's going in getting the OpenElec firmware compatible with the S805. I have just bought an MXQ box which I haven't found to be particularly stable with the Android build with the addons I use. I use the same addons on an MX with OpenElec and they on-the-whole it works fine with the latest Gotham 13.2 / Openelec 4.2.1 release.
I would be happy to lend a hand in any beta testing if this can help you out at all. I have a dev/test/support background, so should be pretty competent in reporting back any issues that may arise.
Cheers,
GiantJ

I don't have such device, so currently this is not possible. If you or someone other are willing to donate a Minix NEO X8-H, then it would be possible.

Hello Codesnake and thank you for all your efforts so as to help people like me,that ignorance is our first name.
I own the box of the title.
Would it be possible to install your openelec on that box?
Probably it would give much life to it,as far as I can understand.
Thank you in advance for your answer...

Unfortunately that box is not supported by my port of OpenELEC, and unlikely will be supported in future, because it is based on old AML8726-M3 chip.

Nevertheless on to the subject. Thank you very much for your quick answer and thumbs up for your contribution to community...
Hopefully you get back part of the effort you been made...

Some issues with 4.2.1
Although it works great on my (clone) MX2. (It is this box from geekbuying), I ran into a few small issues.
I have the occasional total freezup (although not seen so often the last couple of days) which I did not see on previous versions. Now sometimes it has turned itself off (blue led), maybe this freezup has something to do with it, I do not know (power safe mode maybe?). But more important I cannot get the device to turn back on after it is in the blue led state (either by me powering it off and then powering on by remote or when it got there itself).
Any thoughts?
Codesnake thank you for your work on EM8 what a difference it make on these boxes, I know this project is young, but what is your thoughts on getting the native bluetooth working on the box? It's not a huge thing but just interested on your input about it?
Thanks

[SIZE=+1]Q1: How do I root/unlock this phone?[/SIZE]There is a guide in the 'General" subforum. Recoveries can be found in the 'Development' subforum.
Note: There is an " Everything" thread stickied in the 'General' subforum where you will find many of the goods for this device.
[SIZE=+1]Q2: What is the best ROM?[/SIZE]Please refrain from asking questions about the 'best' ROM, kernel, launcher or anything else as the answer is subjective at best. Here is a reply from a Moderator Best/Fastest Rom[SIZE=+1]Q3: Do I need to do anything besides root/unlock before flashing a ROM?[/SIZE]Make a backup of your current ROM.
[SIZE=+1]Q4: After flashing a ROM I am stuck on splash/boot screen- what do I do?[/SIZE]Try wiping data, cache,and dalvik as well as under mounts and storage format system then reflash. If you still have the issue go to the ROM specific thread and search there for an answer. If you have searched and the answer is not there then post the question, preferably in 'Q&A' subforum rather than the development thread.
[SIZE=+1]Q5: I changed to a different recovery- where is my backup?[/SIZE]It can not be seen by a different recovery - either revert back to the recovery where your backup is located or make a new backup with the recovery you are now using.[SIZE=+1]Q6: How do I return to stock?[/SIZE]LGNPST. There is a guide in the 'General' subforum.[SIZE=+1]Q7: Why is my 'XYZ' app not working on this new ROM?[/SIZE]This is most likely not because it is a new rom.

Well done mate, defiantly needed here :good:
Looks great Pony! And I see some familiar faces that have pop'd in here....
Pony,
I have a couple FAQ's that I'd like to nominate for your list (there may be additional answers that people will want to offer, but the answers are as complete a list that I can think of/find):
Q. After flashing the ROM, I get a popup saying "Unfortunately, the process android.process.media has stopped."
A.
1) Clear data for the Media Storage service
2) Reflash the ROM when reinstalling the apps don't restore data
Q. My PC/Laptop doesn't recognize that my phone is connected when MTP connected:
A.
1) use a different USB port
2) don't use a USB 3.0 port
2) use a different USB to micro cable
3) reboot PC/Laptop: may require multiple reboots of PC/Laptop (standard windows fix is to reboot 3 times, to see if it fixes the prob, before calling their helpless desk)
4) are you using an Windows 8 PC/Laptop? Change to a different computer
5) reinstall/manually install the drivers (http://www.lg.com/us/support-mobile/lg-E970)

A friend of mine (here, in India) is planning to buy the Optimus G E970, an unlocked version. I was wondering,
1. Is there any way to remove the AT&T logo from the notification bar, except installing a custom statusbar? Open to custom stock (LG) roms, not stock android based roms. If not, does it stay constant at AT&T or does it change according to current carrier?
2. Is the deep sleep issue gone in the JellyBean update?
3. Techradar says the contacts app was very erratic, and used to take upto 30 seconds to open on occasion. Did any of you guys face this issue on ICS? Is it there in JellyBean.
4. Also, since the phone is based on AT&T, how will the modem perform?
Many thanks to whoever takes the time to answer these questions for me...

I have the AT&T version which I am using in India... I had to use LGNPST to load the latest firmware since OTA does not work... Currently it is rooted, unlocked, with vanilla rootbox running.....
1. I don't remember seeing any AT&T logo in the statusbar. Also when you put in an Indian SIM, the service provider name will be displayed in the statusbar. This is on stock firmware, un-rooted and with bootloader locked.
2. No deep sleep issue
3. No issues with contacts. This depends on rom I guess.
4. the usual bug with JB radio is present with call indicated as disconnected but available in the notification area.
P.S. If you want to unlock bootloader with freegee app, suggest you use the CWM recovery instead of TWRP.... I used TWRP first and soft-bricked my phone. Then had to go back to stock and repeat the whole process again.
hope this helps...

I read in a couple of places that its permanent, which would be annoying. Since this phone was designed only for AT&T, i assumed that the word "AT&T" was just pasted there, as opposed to reading the name of the actual carrier, displaying it there.
About the modem issue, if i understood correctly, it will say call disconnected, but the call will still go through? Can't the ICS modem be used instead?
The other Modem issue I am curious about is one i faced on my own S2. The stock modem that came with the Indian firmware was terrible, and hardly ever gave me a data connection. As soon as i switched modems, the problem was rectified. Now if Samsung can drop the ball on a phone meant to be sold and used in India, i can only assume that something similar can happen with an AT&T phone.

Yes, you are absolutely right - "it will say call disconnected, but the call will still go through". ICS modem can also be used. Check the thread on available radios under the General section(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2270319). This thread talks about each radio and the issues they have. Also some roms have GPS/ LTE problems. If you can do without these, I guess you can use the ICS radio.
Basic question, will mods and apps made for other LGOG's (Sprint, international) work on our phone. I understand that some get into framework and such but i would like to know about launchers, q-slide, and such
Thanks
Hi guys ! I have a problem with noozxoide and google play music, the equalizer worked only one time but non it doesn't. I also tried DSP manager , same result. Any solutions ?

odd, once unlocked and you use a different provider's SIM, it should not show AT&T in the status bar.
mine shows T-Mobile (it showed a different logo when I used one of those prepaid sims).
The LG Optimus L5 II or E450 seems to be the enhanced version of the Optimus L5. It was released on February 2013 and bring some improvements like a new processor (1000 MHz, ARM Cortex-A9) and it brings android version Jelly Bean 4.1 as default fimware.

I'm making this thread because it seems that some things that work for the model E610 don't work for this one (Actually I have only tried with some CWMs and mods) so I will be updating it with special stuff only for the E450 models.
At the moment it is possible to root and unlock the device, you can follow alley23 guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2343579
How to root the phone:
1. Download this chinese root software called VROOT (I use this method because is the only one that worked for me but it must be other ways too...)
http://www.mgyun.com/vroot
2. Enable "USB debugging mode" on your phone (Settings > Developer Options > Android Debugging)
3. Connect phone to computer and install phone drivers, download them from LG site if necessary
4. Run VROOT and you will see that the program detects your phone model, click on the green square button that says ROOT, if everything goes ok your phone will restart and now you will see a "root" app on your app drawer, that means your phone now is rooted.
5. If you want to change the root app (because is in chinese) you will need SDK Tools (http://dl.google.com/android/installer_r22.2.1-windows.exe) and Java JDK (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html)
Download https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.supersu or any other root manager and open it up, go to setting and select "Install SuperSU into /system" (this will override the chinese root app).
6. Open an ADB terminal and type the following (with the quotation marks):
Windows:
adb.exe shell "su -c 'mount -o remount,rw /system'"
adb.exe shell "su -c 'rm /system/bin/su'"
adb.exe shell "su -c 'rm /system/xbin/su'"
7. Restart phone, open SuperSU and update binary sources, and ta-da! done.
If you have any question or you don't a step PM me and I will help you.

I have tried to install a custom recovery, Clockwork Mod, with the custom recovery for L5 E610 but I can't make it work, I also tried several guides of the E610 but none seems to work so I guess it is incompatible with the E450...
But I will continue to update the thread with news, updates and stuff ported to this (awesome?) device.
Some mods by Slipsystem: Here
And now, thanks to the amazing user slipsystem, it is posible to unlock the bootloader of the E450! Follow this link to find how to do it: (L5 II) Unlocked Bootloader (Optima Team)
Any comments or links are welcome.
I bought the LG E450g, I suppose that the "G" would refer to my area and frequencies 850/1900.
I have not tried to root yet.
It have a nice performance, more than a Galaxy S Duos, and the UI feels really smooth.
The only issue with this phone is the Wifi/Data disconnecting every time the screen goes off. This means I will not receive Whatsapp messages o whatever that uses internet until I turn on the phone.
I have tryng looking for a setting, app, or something else without luck. Also I did a factory reset, and flashing a new firmware, but still no luck.
But in overall, the phone just works fine.
Have you enable the "keep wifi on during sleep" option? Which apps have you tried?

Yes, I enabled "Keep Wifi on during Sleep", disable "Mobile data Limits", everything, but no luck.
Im still looking for an app that forces the connection always on, but no luck.
Is your E450g working fine? Which firmware do you have?
I'm using stock firmware but I've never experimented that kind of problem... mmm, you can try with an app called "Advanced Wifi Lock (Free) search it in google play.
Finally someone else confirming this issue. I have the same problem with my L450. I initially thought this was a problem only on my phone and that it i had a problem with the firmware. I have flashed the latest Chinese firmware and still have the same problem. LG is unaware of this problem this is there reply to this issue

Dear Slipsystem,
The part where you enabled the Wi-Fi during sleep mode that’s fine like that and did you have a stable Wi-Fi connection prior to this?
When you try going onto the internet does it give you an error message and if so what error message does it display?
Kind Regards,

I do have a stable wifi connection, the same thing happens on my home network as well as my work network. I get no error message using chrome it just tells me the page could not be loaded. I also am not able to browse shared folders using es-file exporer.
I did google it and alot of people say thats its a rom issue. I am not using a custom rom, and I dont want to send my phone in for repairs if all they are going to do is re install the software. I have tried doing a factory reset but I still have the same issue.
I can re-install using the lg mobile support tool but I am trying to avoid having to do everything again.
have you experienced this problem before on any of your other l series 2 devices?
could this be a firmware issue?
I had I haven't experienced this issue with the samsung s3 running jelly bean or the sony xperia go running jellybean.
It shows that the wifi is connected but its not. when going to google it says page could not be loaded. I installed wifi fix and everytime i lock my phone when I unlock it wifi fix has to repair the connection.

Hi Slipsystem,
It’s rare that we get issues like these and if we do get issues where the phones system is not working as it should we flash the phone (run software) and it normally resolves the problems.
We have never experienced this problem on any of the LG series as far as I know. What I can advise you to do as a customer is take the phone back to the store where it was purchased from or to your nearest network provider where they can have the phone tested for you.
I can give you the hard factory reset code as well but I don’t think it will really make a difference (3845#*450#) then WCDMA only – then Factory Reset.
Kind Regards,

I think the best option for us is to install wifi fixer https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.wahtod.wififixer I found this to be the only app that works. and wait for a new update or custom rom that fixes this issue
i have the same problem! with WPA2 nets! LG E451G (Argentina)
Does this problem happens with all the networks you are connected to? I mean has anybody tried with a different network? Because it seems that the only difference of wifi on E610 and E450 is a "dual-band" feature, maybe it is a compatibility issue with your router frecuency?
Or maybe it is a firmware problem? this is my software info:

I have had this problem with my work network and with my home network.to be honest I am not sure what dual band is, but my wireless settings look like this.
Hello Slipsystem.
I was thinking that it was only my phone too.. No app fixed, nor flashing new roms, nothing worked.
I saw your post about Wifi Fixer. So I will try it.
I was doing it the manual way, -Wake up phone.. -Wifi off.. -Wifi on.(Each time my screen went off) (Yeah, maybe 5 times in 5 minutes).
Also I tried modifying the build.prop, not luck - (To be true, I didnt know what I was doing, I was really desperate)
Some Customs
Some customizing if anyone is interested

I know no one has been able to get a custom recovery to work for our phone yet. But if it were possible what would you like to do with it other than Install a custom rom. Debloating is a must but what type of mods/ports would you want to install on your device. for me i miss the xperia range of media apps so I ported it to my phone. Before I write a tutorial I want to know what your suggestions are.
Tell me what you would like ported to the L5 II.
I guess everyone is shy.... This is the reason why I asked the question.

Hello again! As you know my L5 II was dead, but now thanks to you it is not anymore.
Answering your questions. The first thing I would like to see is a WiFi-issue Fix. Then maybe a AOSP-themed (Settings and some other things) lite rom, or even better.. a cyanogen port.
For mods or port, maybe a port from the beautiful lock-screen of the LG G2 (Maybe I'm dreaming). But to be honest, I don't really envy anything from other phones.
In overall, I'm very happy with this phone.
The only bad thing = WiFi :silly:
If you are really interested on developing, porting, modding.. I could be a tester for your work
hi
Good work,keep going to discover things for this device.:good:
The recent news from CyanogenMod are that they are working on an installer so that the mod will work on any phone yay, so im expecting it will solve the wifi issue on ours... I guess it will install a custom recovery so we will be able to flash easier

WiFi Fix is a definite, I am not sure how to fix this though I think it has something to do with a kernel tweak or something. I dont like to play around with anything except the system folder.
AOSP-Theme I am looking into for you, I found a few threads but it seams to require a CWM based rom.
LG G2 seems possible as far as I know it is the same as our lock screen just with added effects. I am pretty sure this is possible. It might take some time as I need to download a LG G2 rom to port these feature and the Roms are almost 2 gigs and my internet connection is very slow. It is probably something to do with pushing the lockscreensettings apk and then copying some libs and frameworks to get all the effects to work.

Hi, I'm from Argentina. I have the e451g and had the same problem. Solution: change router security from WPA2 to WPA
Sorry for not posting in a while guys I have been down with a sickness.
I am looking at all suggestions and trying my best to help out.
some progress
ivan0550 request for LG G2 Lock Screen. I am not getting a Force Close anymore but I am stuck with editing the framework-res.apk hopefully after editing that I will get the effects to work.
ivan0550 request for a wifi fix, still havent found a working solution for this, Fede37 recommended changing the router settings from WPA2 to WPA this has no effect. I am going to try setting my router to different bands and frequencies to see if it will stabilize.
rotorto request for mass storage option, all of the tweaks that I made to the build.prop doesnt seem to throw my phone into mass storage mode. I am not sure if there is a way to get this to work without installing a 3rd party app.
ivan0550 request for a AOSP like settings. I am not experienced in Cynogenmod or AOSP as all of my previous android phone didnt have one of these custom roms available. I am not sure on how the settings work and what its sapposed to do but maybe this post can shed some lite
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2431622
all in alll I am having no luck but I am going to keep on trying. If i keep hitting a brick wall I will move onto another project and come back to trying to get these things to work but I wont forget about these requests.
Dont feel afraid to request anything as I will try my best to help out wherever possible. I love getting request as I like to modify my device and it just gives me insparation.

Hello,
I have the exact same problem. And it drives me crazy.
It all happened when I flashed a newer version of the MoKee 4.4.3 ROM based on CM11.
I am currently using this version:
MK44.2-umts_spyder-140524-RELEASE.zip -> and this is the only newer and stable version without the problem.
Any newer releases since May 31st. have the exact same problem. Everything runs smoothly until I leave the phone for a while, usually 5-10 mins. When I turn the screen on... I get this weird distortion just like you do. And I have to restart my phone with POWER + VOL DOWN key combination.
The ROM releases with this kind of problem are:
MK44.2-umts_spyder-140531-RELEASE.zip
MK44.2-umts_spyder-140604-RELEASE.zip
MK44.3-umts_spyder-140610-RELEASE.zip
I have tried almost every trick I could imagine, I've fiddled with the kernel, tried to turn off power saver, tried to force 2D rendering, force 16bit transparency.. and so on. But the problem still persists.
So, at this very moment I cannot update my ROM with the newer versions because I don't know what is causing the problem.
On my 4.1 stock ROM I had a problem with HDMi being always turned on, due to hardware malfunction of the phone. That is why I switched to rooting and flashing a custom ROM. The HDMi problem was gone... but this might be somehow related. Maybe the newer versions of CM11 for Xt910 have the HDMi service back on. I don't know.
Oh yes, and one more thing. I thought that it was a bug in MoKee, but I flashed a different kind of ROM, the RessurectionRemix from June the 4th and this ROM also has this kind of problem. So, it might be a hardware issue or something is wrong with the newer releases.
I need help on this.
Ok, good to know, i just tried cm11 and everything newer than 05/28 give me that screen.
I also had hdmi always on with stock rom.
Maybe it's related.

So I guess we are both stuck on May releases for now. If you somehow discover any other 4.4.3. ROM without this pixelated screen bug, please post it here. So we could help other people which are having the same problem as we do.
As a matter of fact, it is definitely a problem with the HDMi interface. Because both of us share the same problem. Before my phone was rooted, I was stressed by this HDMi fault on my phone. Every time I restarted my phone, the HDMi was force-turned on upon boot. And my screen was force-rotated. So I had to go to screen settings and activate/re-activate HDMi to get my screen back to normal. After I've rooted my phone I removed the webtop software and my problem with the forced HDMi switching was gone. That was on my 4.1.2 stock ROM.
And when I tried out the MoKee 4.4.2 everything was running perfectly until these June releases which are buggy.
I am aware of the fact that this is probably a hardware fault. But maybe if I flash the newer ROM version and if I try to uninstall the webtop service again... maybe it will work.
I plugged the hdmi on my tv when the white screen appeared and it was working,white screen on the phone, and actual display on the tv. but the phone was very slow, sometimes the white screen disappeared.
I tried to kill some process, but no success.
Maybe there is a commit implemented on these new builds, related to hdmi function
But, don't know much about it, and where to look.

Just wanted to check in and confirm that I gott the same exact problem. Hdmi error on stock, and the white screen on june builds. Staying on may for now. Tried a few different cm roms and the all seem to have the same problem....
Is there not a way to disable the hardware via build.prop for cm11?

Any luck so far? I haven't tried any newer CM11 builds.
Could this be made publicly available?

Hi mate, If you still have the rom downloaded, could you please upload it for us? Its been taken off the MoKee site and cannot seem to find it anywhere else. Would very much appreciate it as this is the only way I can see to get the phone working properly again. Thanks.

Finally, I have discovered a solution to this menacing problem. Here it is folks!
The trick is, you need to install a custom kernel which could disable the HDMi interface by all means. I have downloaded the JBX kernel ver. "JBX-Kernel-3.5-Hybrid-Spyder-4.4_2014-07-08.zip" and flashed it over my LiquidSmooth rom.
The LiquidSmooth build is "LS-KK-v3.1-2014-07-06-umts_spyder.zip" from early July. I used a clean install on the rom (wiped all data on my phone) and then after flashing the rom and the gapps... I flashed the JBX kernel over it. Although, while installing the JBX kernel... you MUST leave the "disable HDMi" option selected. The fault is only with the HDMi interface, so you MUST disable it for things to work properly.
As for the last couple of hours, the rom is running fine and the white pixelated screen is gone. I can't describe the joy I feel after fixing this one.
Spread the word! :good:

Love the disabled battery charging light. It annoys me too. Shines in my eyeballand blinds me in a dark room. :cyclops: HUGE thanks for bringing PE to Ocean!! Awesome job on this!!! :good:
One thing I did notice is I had no data upon booting up. Installation was smooth and booted fine and from what I can tell everything is working great!
My carrier is Metro by TMobile and when I looked I didn't seem to have any apns in my directory anywhere. Remembered on Havoc 10 the apn.conf.xml are in product/etc and also system/product/etc so I threw the apn I saved from Havoc 10 in the system/product/etc , set permissions to 0644 and reset apn to default and data is on and working perfectly. Attaching my apn.conf.xml from Havoc if anyone else wants to use it..

All credit to Spaceminer for this apn.conf.xml swap fix because that's who I learned it from over on another device forum a while back.
edit..got it.

I use orange fox recovery, Elections build over on our roms section, and I never install it. Just boot it when needed. That way I don't have to deal with the freezes.. And I use latest Canary Magisk.
If you keep manually booting to bootloader and back to recovery eventually your touch screen will work.. If you have recovery installed then hold power button + volume down when it freezes then once you get back to bootloader then go back to recovery and just keep going back and forth till it stops freezing up. It will eventually..
(Edit)
Thanks for the info. So we don't need twrp installed to run a custom rom? I just reverted back to stock cause I couldn't get into the phone to add your apn file you uploaded .so from stock I just run the fox recovery then flash the canary then rom? There's so many threads saying how to root.im getting confused and end up starting over many times in the last few days. Appreciate the help.
Installed this last night. Working great and loving the Pixel Experience on my Moto Power G 7.

No you never have to install a custom recovery. You can boot recovery when you need to use it if you choose to using: fastboot boot foxrec.img Then you won't get any freezes with your screen not being responsive like we all do if you have recovery installed. Sounds like your treading dangerous ground. Be careful or you can brick your device. What's your model # Ex: Mine is a 1955-5 metro by tmo. Thinking yours is same seeing how you went after the apn I posted.. If you have a 1955-5 Qualcomm Ocean metro by TMobile variant see the guide section, the thread titled: How to root for noobs. Can't miss it. That's the thread to follow if you have a Metro by TMobile variant G7 power. Lots of info there. I always just read the entire thread start to finish. Never just start flashing things when you're not ? sure what you're doing. You don't want to end up with a broken phone ..
This rom has been excellent!!

So far i have tried this https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/how-to/rooted-moto-g5-run-morning-post-image-t3776012 seems like you can boot having cloned the main memory of another moto device into a SD card, but the disk image in that forum is from a G5 not a Moto G7 Power device, so it didn't work
The failure is pretty weird, I leave it all night long plugged in to charge (just in case it might be discharged), and tried to turn it on, but it doesn't do anything, won't turn on, the screen doesn't light up, it won't vibrate, won't boot into bootloader, it's just weird
love the rom but is there anyway to increase the in call volume is kinda low for me.
See below
Google Play system update doesn't install. Shows update available, downloads, press restart to install.
Reboots, shows installing update, then reboots again, starts up and in security setting it shows the same update is still available.

Fish around in the Motorola threads about booting from a sdcard. There is a 1955-5 somewhere in there. I believe sd_shadow uploaded his. I can't recall which thread but I'll look again and try and locate it and if so I'll shoot you link via pm so we don't kill the thread talking about it.. I'll go hunt for the post now. May take me 15-20 mins but if you are looking for 1955-5 I know it's there somewhere here in one of those threads buried. I'll find it. Check your PM's in about 30 minutes. Anyone who needs the 1955-5 mmcblkxx to try and boot from sdcard send me a pm and once I locate the post with it I'll forward it to you.
Edit added:
On second thought it may be for the 1955-4 dual sim I'm not ? but all that info is there in that thread as well.. I hope that helps someone. https://forum.xda-developers.com/g7-power/help/help-blank-flash-moto-g7-power-t3930168/page4 on page #4 sd shadows post. He uploaded his to mega. Within those few pages 2-6 or so it has lots of helpful info on how to make a bootable sdcard ...
Thanks for the help, unfortunately I've already tried that with no results, probably the issue is that I need that sd image but from a xt1955-7 with February's last security update for my device to boot up, I'll wait till somebody publish it with a matching image
Please read and DO AT YOUR OWN RISK
After searching everywhere and trying to get a clear answer on the Global ROM_ROW support for Android 11 on the Lenovo Legion Duel (one), all I could find was don't use the Chinese ROM as it has many issues. So, like any person told not to I tried it. Though it worked I had multiple issues with sensors and my cell service in the USA. I went back to GLOBAL ROM .332 which was the most stable for me but did lose my casting ability for playing my games to my TV. This is a deal breaker for me as I take my phone on the go and hook to friends and family's TV's for Steam, Emulation, etc and we use the casting, as this allows me to play my games. Note I also use it for Gamepass cast to the screen for friends to watch the game etc.
I finally found an Android 11 non China ROM, but it was an EE ROM on another site (which I had to pay for) but NO Global ROW ROM as installed on the phone when I purchased it. After backing up my data yet again, I tried to install this one (see link below for how to install). Once I installed and rebooted the Lenovo Legion L79031 v EE 12.5.251_ST rom, and set my cell APN, Turned the 5G to NSA-SA and networks preference (to NR-LTE-GDSM etc...) it began to function. After prox. 30 seconds after a reboot from changing the settings, I got a notification for an update (YES OTA). The update is for 12.5.320 which has notification fixes and bug fixes. Hopefully, this will be my last time having to flash the device! But I can confirm the EE rom for 11 does function on T-Mobile in the USA and works with out issue so far, has only been a short time for usage, but finally a solution for me.
Pros:
Android 11
Battery life improved
Smoother touch rate
OTA UPDATES
(Everything seems to function including cell and text messages on USA T-Mobile including the 5G NR)
Cameras work for everything even BARCODE readers and Mobile banking depo which was an issue before (at least for me). Pic snap faster but no real software updates from last build for controls as far as I can tell.
ZUI loads much faster.
Cons:
Lost all settings backups seems to cause issue when restoring so manually re-adding is the best solution.
APN setting and other settings might need to be redone, if installing from a back up or updating with OTA update.
Rebooting seems to take longer.

As for what everyone really wants the links and how to install, I have linked to a video I send to others to use for installing the ROM, it is NOT my video, but the best one on YOUTUBE( I found recently); I had my 8 year old son help me a few weeks ago update a friends Duel and I let my son follow the vid and install the rom, OBV I did the downloads on the PC and setup the file location but he was able to follow the steps well to load the files to the phone, which is why I suggest to us it. The first time installing is scary! There is BIG BIG BIG pre-req beforehand, back up your phones drives as mentioned in other post on this forum! I have had to use mine two or three times and with out it I would have been SOL! See links below for ROM and VID.
I do not take any responsibility if you brick your device or LOOSE your data, etc or if this doesn’t work on another US carrier, as I have only tested AT&T (friends’ phone) and T-Mobile (MINE). I will try to help if it’s messed up, but please back your stuff up!
(Not my video, but how to install)
ROM- EE version (I believe this to be UK ROM) (Again I PAID FOR THIS, but I am sharing it for FREE, as we should all have access to these OTA).

I know its only about a day but does everything still seem to be working? Camera, triggers, fingerprint scanner, notifications, etc. I'm on the china rom and have been searching for a fix pretty much everyday. It would be nice to have everything working on the phone

Everything is working smoothly for me. I haven't had any issues that are show stoppers.
I did find it harder to change my network preferences, for cell service as I have to search for it vs going to advance setting. But again this is to change from NR/GSM/CMDA/GSM etc. most people leave this a lone but I move it around depending on the area and service I am in.

Please read and DO AT YOUR OWN RISK
After searching everywhere and trying to get a clear answer on the Global ROM_ROW support for Android 11 on the Lenovo Legion Duel (one), all I could find was don't use the Chinese ROM as it has many issues. So, like any person told not to I tried it. Though it worked I had multiple issues with sensors and my cell service in the USA. I went back to GLOBAL ROM .332 which was the most stable for me but did lose my casting ability for playing my games to my TV. This is a deal breaker for me as I take my phone on the go and hook to friends and family's TV's for Steam, Emulation, etc and we use the casting, as this allows me to play my games. Note I also use it for Gamepass cast to the screen for friends to watch the game etc.

This should be fixed, GOOGLE blocked it due to a bunch of attempts to hack into the account. Try the link again it should be view all, allowing everyone to download it, even without a google account. Try and let me know. Thanks.

Did you install from a Global Rom and if so what version I installed from .332 as said with no issues. Spoke to someone else today on Facebook, and he was able to install and get it working as well. More than happy to help if I can.
I think that's the incompatible message
Get back to android 10 then flash the rom again
On .332 i get the incompatible hardware message.
You can fix that by flashing persist img
So i need to flash back the chinese rom,backup persist then install .332 and restore persist?

you dont exatly need the chinese rom just any working stable android 10 rom. flash rom then backup the persist and modem. then try android 11 again.
there is a guide here by mrgreapes
Incompatible Hardware with System ROW ROM 332
When I install the .332 global rom, when I start the device, I receive a message that says: the hardware is incompatible with the current system. Someone with a similar problem?
forum.xda-developers.com
persist fix the incompatible hardware message, camera and some sensor problem
modem fix no sim signal.
Hi i'm been looking for this good news for a long time ago. I have 3 questions. The first one, can I install the EE 12.5.251 row ROM directly with the qfil software, I mean I just exctracting the 251 ROM on a folder with the same name on the c unit and then run the qfil software?… The second one: I'm on CN ROM 12.5.225, so I wan't to know if there is any big chance to get the black screen as before when I tried to get back to the global? And the last one, the video on your post of how to change to global is broken can you fixed please?. Thank you very much for your time and patience. Greetings
I used 12.5.320 and I started to have service issues after about 3 months and the OS crashed, most stable version for me is still 12.0.332. I have not tried using the newest china ROM and thought about trying it
Please could you reupload the video cuase it's not available Now
