LOL FYI, I am not a developer, I am also a learner. This is my first time in bringup of TWRP and CM. It will take time for me to get it right. Please be a bit patient.

Thanks for the vote of confidence, but I'm not (yet) working on CM for the G4+, as I simply still can't obtain it. The + will be released june 9th, but only in the 16 GB version. I want the 32 GB version. As soon as I can get my hands on one and someone managed to build a twrp and root it, then I can dive in. (unless I learn how to do those steps before anybody beats me to it )

TWRP and root is already done bro. Here is the link for all you need : http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/guide-newbie-resource-thread-t3386584 . I am working on CM along with another guy. I find very less time since I am working professional so 10 hours of my day goes in work, 8 hours for sleep and the rest I have to manage everything. I sure wish a day had 48 hours instead of 24 I will be slow to dev CM for G4 Plus.

When you're already working on cm, do you know if it's possible to change the available system memory on the devices? The UK and DE motomakers state the G4+ with 32 GB as devices with only 2 GB system memory. (344 euro for the 64 GB model is a bit to steep for me)

stock 7.0 is possible!

If the Moto G4 play running the same chipsets as the Moto e 2015,gets the official 7.0 update from Motorola then following could happen:-
Some generous developers out there will try to port the official stock ROM from the harpia to our surnia , hence making our device to get "identity crisis" like ROM which was seen some time ago for the devices like the original Moto g ported from Moto g2.
It will be awesome
No chance. It not got 6.0.1 update. Moto g 3 runs on same chipset as moto e 2015 4g. G3 got 6.0.1 but e2 not.

Even for now g3 isn't getting stock 7.0
The Moto G4 Play has a Snapdragon 400, and this phone is a 410. So no, it is not possible.
Edit: maybe I'm wrong. Must be a typo on the G4 Play XDA thread, it says 400, but specs elsewhere say 410.
If it does get N and someone finds the firmware, I can see what I can do with it. I ported a Moto G 2015 mm stock, but the camera doesn't work at all.

I doubt it has a 400. That's what the first gen Moto G had.
GSM arena has the g4 play listed with a 410

it's surely possible!

Motorola likes sticking a phone to quite a unique Android version no. And so I think they didn't update e2 4G to 6.0.1 plus that minimal update doesn't bring too much of changes!
Look guys this is seriously possible!
You might find it the desicions done by Motorola regarding the Android update programme impossible to believe but believe me; even if they update a single 410 chip based device then it's a must for sure that the our wonderful family of developers will surely try to port the best of Moto's software even to our ignored devices!

MIUI 8
There are several problems with this base ROM:
It's built for ARM64, and, while our devices support it, Motorola have decided that it's better to run 32bit Android (don't know why but ok)
Its base is Android 4.4 KitKat. The G4 Play ships with 6.0.1 Marshmallow.
A much better choice would be the Moto G3 (2015)'s MIUI ROM here (base 6.0.1/CM13, 1GB RAM/8GB storage variant) since it is based on Marshmallow and runs 32-bit. I have tried to port it but it is stuck on the boot logo.

Thank you, I will definitely try, but it probably won't succeed because it is based on 5.1.1 while the Moto G4 Play ships with 6.0.1. I will let you know if it works.

Looking to root Moto G7 - XT1962-6

Hi,
I'm looking to root G7:
Model - XT1962-6
Software - retin
Build - QPUS30.52-16-2-7-7
I simply want to get LineageOS with TWRP and Root. I have searched but have not found anything related to my model. I don't want to brick the device so if anyone can assist me by directing to the correct method, it will be a great help!
Thanks in advance
Hi dcybergeek,
Welcome. I have the exact same than that you do. I started here looking to do a twrp/magisk root like I did back with my Motp G5 Plus...was np prob find everyone did it. NOT SO for our plain G7. Being a novice, I gave up.
Now I drop to look and ask (beg) to see if anyone knows of magisk root...with or without using twrp if need be. The silence has been deafening...no yes or no or maybe...after nearly begging.
No pne could be bothered to give a simple reply...over n over as can be seen all over! And I thought was THE PLACE on to net for help, but no.
Luckily YES...Lineage 17.1 does work on our phone!! I'm about to just give up on on findi ANY FORM of a Magisk root, I guess.
Simply go hrre:

Hi Zaxx32 , thanks for putting this up for me.
True that regarding the pixel 4a. I am thinking of moving on to that or even if I could get a better deal on the 3a.
I am still thinking to try out these guides. Worse scenario, dead phone and a chance to buy a new one
Update for someone else if looking for help/advice:
The LineageOS 17.1 nightlies works well. Managed to install Lineage OS 17.1 from XDA with TWRP. Next up will try Magisk and share the progress
I wish u the best of luck...unfortunately, you're gonna need it...esp if u have questions. When I asked just the BASIC question 'if river could successfully be magisk rooted via twrp now that a new version of twrp for river had been released?'...the silence was...still, deafening. Either there are still issues or it now works but those who know how have taken an oath os secrecy OR they just can't be bothered to help those of us stil 'learning android'...I dunno which! My point being...if it doesn't work...JUST SAY SO! lol

Yes, that adds as a contributing factor. But I think it's still well-supported (at least for now).
Anyways, back to your original question. The first thing you need is to unlock the bootloader.
But before that:
1) Take a backup as everything will be erased during bootloader unlock.
2) Download and set up Android SDK platform-tools on your computer.
Omg...DJBhardwaj...do you know how to root the G7 via twrp + Magisk??

That's what I was thinking...and is why I got my unlock but just can't pull the trigger cuz I'm not 100% confident I have the order correct. Been searching even harder since the latest twrp releases but no two guides are the same!! ...and I can't risk bricking my phone. Is there anyway I could convince you to show me the correct order/steps? I'd be happy to compensate you for your time...

IMO, always be ready for a brick when dealing with such things for the first time. It's not like it's bound to happen, but it could. Especially with all the confusion because of all the different tutorials out there.
Rooting/TWRP/ROMs only deal with non-critical partitions, so even if it gets brick, you can easily recover.
LOL no, please. No need to compensate for anything. It's a public forum, and we all are here voluntarily.
Just hit me up on PM, Telegram, or Discord.
Gotcha. I only recently lost my 'root-cherry' to my G5+ which was a great first root but I didn't do my homework re: the' seamless' update system that google said would be a requirement moving forward..(then back-tracked on it in short order..). So my single slot learning experience was pretty straight forward...but reading all the posts on the G7 left my head spinning. I'll hit you tomorrow via PM if that's ok cuz I have to use the on-screen keyboard as I lack the dexterity to type/use a normal kb...1 clk per character is too damn slow for real-time chat...lmao Ttys...and thank you for sharing your brain-power! Gonna do my backups and transfer everything to the pc tonight. Thx again...

Sure. I will try and help as much as possible. It was confusing at first to me as well, but I managed to wrap my head around with enough reading (thanks to some awesome members of the community).
No doubt...I was 'mentored' thru my first root by Wolfcity. The kicker was I'd never used a smart phone til about 8 months b4. Always been a Windows Desktop PC guy n feature phone (burner) user. Leaned a lot...quickly..lol
Ttys...need some rest atm.

Have you tried shifting to a custom kernel? Are all users of LOS 17.1 facing sudden hangs?
As for K-9, I believe it's more related to syncing issues. It could be that the K-9 app is not able to run background sync.
Zaxx32 as stated above by both me and DJBhardwaj the very best rather than PM, offsite links would be to go through any XDA related thread.
I understand you are looking for root on stock and not lineage and or any other roms.
If it is to regain privacy I still recom you simply go lineage and or other rom.
And if you still want to root on stock, then there is a high chance it won't work based on the -6 model you own. The best I would suggest is disable unwanted apps if unable to delete. Keep google to the bare minimum (do not sync them all). Use unrooted adblockers, set permissions accordingly and set custom dns under network settings.

I cannot speak for them all, but yes I too suspect kernal issue as the lineage is supported for my -6 model but I suppose not to a full 100%. Other than this, I am not facing any hard errors just sometimes random freezes for 2-3 seconds but to me it is bearable.
