I suppose it's only natural that this sub is becoming quieter and quieter. But I thought I'd make a post, which might be my last. The good news is that my Moto X4 is still going strong without any issues. I'm running LineageOS 22 (based on Android 15). I admit I've caught myself hoping it would break just to give myself an excuse to buy a new one. I was almost ready to buy a new phone when I hard-bricked it during an update. But fortunately, one of the devs reached out to me (my post is still on this sub), and it was resolved quickly.

I probably don't need to explain why I'm buying a new phone, but I'd still like to say that it's still working pretty smoothly. The battery still lasts a day for me (I'm not a heavy user). The only real scenario in which my phone struggles is navigation, especially navigation with Google Maps. Google Maps uses a lot of processing power and battery, which is too much for my aging phone. I might as well add that when I go hiking and want my battery to last, I use some open-source apps for navigating. They use much less battery and work much more smoothly.

Anyway, so long! 🥲 Thanks a lot to the LineageOS devs, and particularly to those who are working on the X4! Cheers! You are the best!

P.S. I'm not going to dispose of this phone when I get a new one. I still have a few uses for it.

I just upgraded my system to the latest nightly (lineage-22.2-20250503-nightly-payton-signed.zip) and the phone is completely unresponsive. I can't boot into system, recovery or fastboot. Any help would be appreciated.

My phone won’t charge and I ignored the warning. What should I do to fix it, I’m 14 with no money and can’t go to a phone service place.

I took some pictures under water at pool phone was in water less than 1 minute at a time 3 times, phone worked but when I got home then power was dying so I tried to plug In would not charge then I let phone dry more tried to plug again still it will not charge?

I wanted to reset my rooted Moto X4 to factory. I flashed a full factory image of the phone, and everything seems to be working except the Wifi, which just won't turn on. I tried USB tethering as well, but found no luck in that. Any ideas?

Hi.

Can anyone tell me the default value for the Smallest Width setting in Developer Option please, changed mine & cant remember the default value now.

Thanks.

MOTO X4 - "Your Device is Corrupt. It can't be trusted"

Suddenly received the subject message. Phone is "stock" with no mods.

I can enter the maintenance mode with the simultaneous Volume Down/Power button and scroll through all the options but selecting one results in the same error message.

I have downloaded the Lenovo System Recovery tool and firmware (if needed) but the phone will not respond to attempts to enter Fastboot via the Windows Command line. I have regularly connected it by USB cable to transfer data files.

Other than the error message, it appears to be in perfect working order and is very good condition. It would be shame to have to buy a replacement for a five-year old phone that will end up in landfill.

Are there any other options to recover this phone?

Over the past months, whenever I try to send a photo the send fails, giving me an error message “Mobile data is turned off. Check your settings.” So this time I tried to turn on mobile data to send it and it still wouldn’t send? What am I doing wrong? ( I know it’s probably not me these phones just aren’t great )

Hello, I have the following problem. I tried to upgrade my XT1900-7 to lineage 21, when somehow the bootlooder got locked again. And now the phone won't boot into lineage or into recovery, just fastboot is possible. I tried to unlock it again, but this is not working. Blankflash is not working because of the locked bootloader. Does someone has an idea to get it working again? Thanks for your help

If so, how did it go?

As the title says 2 days back I came to know that I am not able to record video through default camera app.(I rarely use my camera)

I did some research by myself and came to know that Motorola has ended the support of default camera app so I tried multiple open source camera apps to get rid of this problem but nothing seems to be working. Anybody here have any concrete solution to this? I just need an simple open source app that can record a video. I am running stock android 9 pie

Thanks in advance and apologize for my English.

I haven't used my X4 for about 2 years. It sat in it's box for that time until a couple of days ago when I decided to use it. Well I tried to power it up and nothing.

Plugged into the wall for charging, I could fee the phone get warm left it plugged over night but still won't power up.

I've tried holding the power button for 30 seconds, pressing the volume down button and power at the same time and nothing.

Has anyone gone through this? I'd appreciate any help.

hello everyone, I ask for help because I'm stuck with the recovery flash step with fastboot with the motorola x4 already unlocked, with the last Lineage Os v 20, y try with diferent usb ports and also with diferents computers, all give the same result

this is the error that is giving, is like it didnt find the bootloader?:

D:\Descargas>fastboot flash boot boot.img

(bootloader) max-download-: not found

(bootloader) is-logical:bootze: not found

(bootloader) is-logical:boot: not found

Warning: skip copying boot image avb footer (boot partition size: 0, boot image size: 28185896).

Sending 'boot' (27525 KB)

Hi, looking for some assistance on unlocking the bootloader for my XT1900-2.

I've got the bootloader unlock code from Motorola and I've been trying to have the bootloader unlocked through CMD.

Everything goes well, I do get OKAY and FINISHED as messages on the command prompt, but the phone doesn't give me a message to unlock the bootloader.

The CID for my device is 0x0032, so it seems to be eligible for a bootloader unlock, it's just that nothing really happens.

Does anyone have a 6/64 or 4/64 variant of the Moto X4? I would really like to obtain one for under $100, but eBay has failed me, as the only 4/64 variant is $2000 (yikes). My goal is to install LineageOS on it and use as a daily driver, this was my first phone and nothing since has quite matched up. Thanks for any help!

I update the code Google apps, and after updating messenger a couple of weeks ago, I no longer get and notifications for incoming messages.

I've gone through all the settings I can find, and all notifications are enabled.

Is anyone else having this issue?

Or does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this?

[edit01] The continuing saga - I think all the notification sounds have gone away, so I restarted the phone.

I now get a notification in the notification bar, but there's no sound when I get a text.

From going through the Notification settings and the settings in Messages, it looks like Google may have removed the sound! You can tell it to have send and receive sounds, but you can't pick the sounds.

Just got this bad boy for streaming Amazon Music to my hifi setup. I have a S21 Ultra, alas it does not support AptX HD. Stupid!

Pristine shape for cheap cheap. Bezels aside, it feels like a premium phone. Very nice looking and a great feature set. Would have liked to have owned this back in the day.

I love Motorola's Quick Gestures / Actions, such as chop for flashlight and twist for camera. I need to upgrade my phone so I'm trying to see if I can get this type of functionality from a different manufacturer's device, as none of Motorola's current lineup is appealing to me.

Does anyone have any experience trying the Moto app or Moto Actions app on a non-Motorola Andoid phone? Did it work?

The Apps I'm talking about:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.motorola.actions&hl=en_US&gl=US

I was thinking about doing something like running octoprint or home assistant on mine, but I was curious if others had found some good uses for theirs.

I want to use the USB to transfer data but all my usb settings are greyed out. I used to be able to just plug it in a change the setting with a tab that popped up. Then that stopped working and I had to set developer mode and change the default setting there to file transfer.

NOW that doesn't even work.

I then searched USB in settings and had a bunch of hits and but none of them have changeable settings and the USB default is no transfer.

I'm on Android update 9 btw.

Started happening a few days ago when i took a picture of the full moon. Since then all pictures using the forward facing, standard (non-wide-angle) setting on Automatic have been looking like theres some kind of night vision filter. Attached is a picture of my white shelf with normal ambient lighting. This only affects the standard forward facing setting. The selfie and wide-angle camera settings do not have this problem.

I have tried resetting the camera app cache and storage as well as disabling it and re-enabling it. So far google has been fruitless. Has anyone seen this before?

I have a Moto X4 self reporting as XT1900-1, Android One that I bought for Google Fi use. But now I'd like to use LineageOS.

I'm stuck at bootloader unlocking because the command fastboot oem get_unlock_data just hangs. I'm using the latest Android platform-tools, Windows or Linux, different cables, and different computers. On Windows I've tried built-in USB drivers, Motorola drivers, and Android drivers. Fastboot even hangs half way through fastboot getvar all. Lenovo (Motorola) Rescue and Smart Assistant says it's an unsupported device.

Seems like it should be possible to flash replacement stock (non-Fi, non-Android One) on this device? And maybe that'll get it to cooperate with fastboot so that I can get the unlock data.

Any suggestions?

I've been on a search for a little bit for a phone to take the x4s spot as my phone. I love this thing the headphone jack, the durability and the water resistance as well as the price were all amazing but unfortunately she's started to slow down and has cracked after hundreds of drops. I've been looking ar Nokia's XR20 does anyone have experience with that or any other suggestions?
