Can you flash Retail FW on the Verizon Moto Edge+? - Motorola Edge + (2020) Questions & Answers

My question is if it's better (you know Verizon bloat bye bye) and if it would have any compatibility issues with 5G etc/ Verizon service not working?

I haven't tried it yet but someone confirmed to me that you can flash the retail firmware on a Verizon variant. Yes it will remove the extra junk. No it will not make the bootloader unlockable

Has anyone found out how to unlock this phone without actually pressing the power button?

yeah. go into the SETTINGS menu. scroll down to SECURITY. Then go down to ADVANCED. Scroll down to LIFT TO UNLOCK and turn it on. you'll also need to enable the face unlock feature too. I hope this answers your question.

I flashed Verizon edge plus with retail firmware. Booted up and said it won't boot because fingerprint doesn't match. So no you can't cross flash even though people say you can.

SM-G965U1 Bootloader: locked or unlocked?

In a few days, my phone will be receiving an OEM unlock option. I tried checking whether my bootloader is locked or unlocked. I've only seen one Google result where someone said Samsung locks their bootloaders. So Samsung locks their bootloaders, right? And if so, is it a royal pain in the ass like an AT&T phone? I've been trying to install a ROM onto my AT&T Galaxy S4 and that has been.....lord have mercy.
This is my first unlocked phone (my S9+). I know 'unlocked' refers to the CARRIER and not the bootloader. But once root options are available, how hard is this going to be for an unlocked phone?
Also, when I look for ROMs, root methods or whatnot, do I have to search for kernels/ROMs/whatever for the Unlocked version or can I use an alternative (like a Verizon S9 and it will be the same).
OEM Unlock no way jose
Waited weeks now still not there
Enabling OEM unlock doesn't mean you will be able to unlock the bootloader.

The USA G965 phones would have a locked bootloader regardless of if it came from a carrier or not. Searching seems to indicate that because the bootloader can't be unlocked yet then the OEM unlock won't appear (or it doesn't do anything at all).
.
As for unlocking the bootloader I imagine it is a real PITA. I would imagine that any sort of bootloader unlock would probably come around (or after) a root method is found. Now when that will happen is not certain
any progress toward unlocking the bootloader of the SM-G965U1 ? I bought this Samsung phone from Samsung,and would hope that developers are finding some way to cure the decisions that seem to be in place.
Even though it is supposed to be Unlocked, that probably meant only OEM unlocked, and even then I don't see it directly as an option in settings.

"Unlocked" in this context means SIM unlocked. It also means that it is free of carrier branding and apps. It cannot be rooted.

does that mean that the SIM unlock in this version is ALWAYS present, or should the option show up or be triggered in some way?
It is a nice phone, but it is disappointing that root seems out of reach.
Additionally, I don't seem to get as good a signal as I did with the S5 with TMobile CSC and LineageOS, , in the same location in the middle of the city.

It only means that the firmware is intended to be loaded on phones Samsung sells, which would be SIM unlocked (assuming you didn't buy a carrier version from Samsung). There is no "SIM unlock" option or anything like that. The phone is either SIM locked or it isn't, regardless of firmware.
In any case, none of that has to do with rooting the phone, which remains impossible.
Signal strength has been worse for me on S9+ (all firmwares I've tried) than the older S7 Edge I had. Different phones with different hardware. Not much firmware can do about that.

A couple questions before I buy an S9+

Hey everyone, i've been out out the rooting/customization game for a few years now since I had a company phone, but i'm changing jobs and will be buying a galaxy S9+ soon and I plan on activating it on Verizon. I have a couple questions though.
If I buy the unlocked version (SM-G965UZKAXAA) through Samsung is there any way to activate the HD calling features, most importantly Wifi calling as service near my house is bad? I've heard of apps like shortcut master and the like being able to do it but I have no confirmation.
I've also heard about people flashing the official VZW fw through Odin to get these features back, but won't that lock the bootloader and make full root with a custom recovery impossible or can we flash everything but the bootloader?
I don't understand how a carrier can lock these features if they are specific to the phone and not the carrier??
My end goal is to have a a phone that I can still root/use custom ROMs if I want but still have WiFi calling working. Is this a pipe dream? Should I just suck it up and get the locked down VZW version? The Wifi calling trumps unlocked bootloader for me right now but I am hopeful for both.
TIA
So after doing a little more research it seems that the unlocked version we can buy from Samsung/BestBuy have the Snapdragon processors and does not have an unlocked bootloader?
Is this true?
If so I guess there is no reason for me to not get the Verizon variant. Just have to disable all the bloatware.

Currently, all Snapdragon variants come with locked bootloader.
If you want development right now, you should get the Exynos version or you can wait a couple of months until someone finds a way to unlock the bootloader for Snapdragon variant.
Thanks for the response. So it looks like i'll get the verizon variant and hope someone eventually figures out how to unlock the bootloader. Although i'm not hopeful as the Note 5, S7, and S8 have yet to be unlocked

Question Rooted Pixel 6 on Verizon

My Pixel 6 hasn't arrived yet but hopefully soon. I'm getting the unlocked version and I'm a Verizon customer. My plan is to root the phone and stay on the Google builds. I don't plan to install the Verizon build. I don't want anything from Verizon except the SIM card (which I already have and plan to transfer from my previous phone).
I've heard some reports of this not working though, of intermittent or no connectivity from Verizon. Some people on other forums report that they need to go to a store for a SIM swap, or switch to eSIM, but even that only works for a while and then it drops again.
Does anyone here have more info? Is this expected to work or does Verizon have a way to force you to use their builds?

First, they are not built by Verizon they are built by Google with different modem/network items for Verizon. That is the only difference, no extra apps or anything like that. As soon as you put a VZ SIM in it you will pull the My Verizon app no matter what firmware you are using. You can uninstall it. The updates all come from Google, not the carrier.
Go to the Google factory image download page and look at the Pixel 5 downloads. You will see in March of 2021 there was only one image for everything and it was that way for months. Then this fall they split apart. This is very common, Google splits them for awhile then merges them.
The VZ version will not lock your phone, add any bloatware or anything like that. But might give you a better signal.
What you want to do will work but isn't needed and probably not the best way to do it.

Thanks... one concern is that I'm coming from a Samsung and on this phone, Verizon forces OTAs. You can delay when the update happens but only briefly. This is a VZW phone, not unlocked, but I figured the VZW firmware is pushing the updates.
Updating requires re-rooting so I'd prefer to do it on my schedule, not Verizon's. Do you know if this is going to be an issue with the Pixel?

One further thing Verizon puts on. Under "all apps" - show system - scroll down for the "my verizon services" app. You can't delete it you can only stop and disable it. It does get reenabled on some schedule, perhaps on the monthly updates, so every once in a while you need to redo the disable thing. What it does it allows Verizon to get into your phone and see all the apps you have installed and when you installed them. Also how long your system has been running, whether or not you factory reset etc. Very intrusive, imo, so I always disable it first thing and check it regularly.

These instructions worked perfectly to get esim working.
I'm using the Verizon firmware on the unlocked model. Wifi calling works and all.
I didn't get the QR code but the Reddit thread has a link for one on step 7. And my account was already CDMAless because of using a 1+ 7 Pro prior.
It took about 5-10 minutes after doing everything before I could make calls and send texts.
Idk if wifi calling works on unlocked firmware but it's enabled by a Verizon specific system app, com.verizon.mips.services
Edit. Idk why the link has a screenshot preview.
Mine didn't require any special provisioning. Running Google version of firmware. Unlocked bootloader, rooted, then inserted SIM from previous 2 XL.
Awesome, @TotallyAnxious and @Sunsparc, thank you both.

Well I'm not quite an identical situation but I'm using visible. And from what I've seen from Sears, we encounter the exact same problems as it's the same parent company. It worked instantly out of the box as soon as I pop my SIM card in on my unlocked Pixel (Global) 6 Pro. No issues at all.
However, as you're probably well aware, test builds with other games don't work. Oxygen OS 12 beta 1/2 for example, would not work with visible or Verizon Even when I put in the correct commonly unknown APN settings (There's actually four of them).
how did you root it?

After about an hour and speaking with Tier 2 tech support, I was informed that the bootloader is locked forever and was recommended to buy directly from Google if you need to unlock the bootloader.

Question Motorola Moto G power 2021 verizon need help to sim unlock

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
i'm in the same boat
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
mine is a cricket, I'm trying to go to T-mobile, same protocol, just don't want to pay the extra $$$

What's the model number of it?
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.

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.

Tmobile is much cheaper in comparison to other carriers. I think once the phone is unlocked it will work pefectly.

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.

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!
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.

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

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.
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.

Question S23 ultra Verizon

I'm curious if anyone knows the compatibility of a US Verizon s23 ultra and T-Mobile's network. I assumed they would be compatible as long as its carrier unlocked however I'm having issues getting my Verizon s23 ultra to accept my t-mobile sim. Any insight from someone with more experience is welcomed.
Verizon locks the phone for 60 days. After that, you're good to use whatever SIM you choose (you may have to flash the U1 firmware to get all features working though).

That sounds like it's still locked to me? Are you using the pSIM or the eSIM? There have been some reports recently that the pSIM gets unlocked and the eSIM remains locked to the original carrier but if you're trying to use the pSIM and they say it's unlocked, I don't know.
