Motorola G Power (2022) (TONGA)

The Corvus GSIs work pretty good run smooth and pretty quick, but all seem to have a systemui reset problem, but it's bearable. Cherish seems bugfree and volte works sometimes on it. Octivi-OS imo are the GSIs that run the smoothest and fastest that I've found almost no noticable bugs other then the volte going in & out. And superior seems to run decent. I try almost all new ones, but I seem to use octivi as my daily driver.
I haven't found a single a 10 gsi that'll boot up. A11 & a12 works on all the above mentioned GSIs.

Reactions: ways2

So I've finally found a gsi / apn combo the volte stays on constantly. I'm not sure if it's more the rom or apn/ setting, but I'm hesitant to flash another gsi and test it on that one.

It stayed on through root, Xposed install and everything.

Can you confirm that VoLTE functions without falling back to a 3G network (including SMS messaging). I live in an area where there are no more 3G networks

The Rom works well most of the time and sms/mms and calling works but for some reason mobile data internet won't work... does anyone know how to fix this? (I am using the unlocked version of the phone if that makes a difference)

(this is my first time using a forum site so sorry if I formatted this incorrectly)

I can confirm that my volte stays on and hasn't fallen back to 3g. I got my phone on LTE only and mms & voice work all the time. I do live in a big city though.
I don't use wifi and I disable video calling.

I've tried several different Rom and I have had any problems with it staying on with Android 12 roms, a11 roms I haven't tried yet. Maybe I'll try one today sometime.

I ended up having to revert to the stock firmware , rooted of course.. until I can figure out the connectivity issues because I work in a lot of rural areas and I found my self losing service A lot.
Can you share which gsi exactly it was that you're using? Gonna give it a try next

I've gotten cherish, superior, awaken all to work. Make sure it's on LTE only and if it's not working for to your network settings and turn volte off then back on. That should do the trick. I've found cherish as the best ROM as of yet.

Can someone please help me with the rooting process for moto g power 22? I unlocked the bootloader but cant find a solid tutorial for the full root and cant find a recovery app suitable for this phone

The same way as any other moto and most phones. Here is a good guide that worked for me. Get Magisk from here.

Finally managed to root this after waiting the ridiculous 3 days time frame for oem unlock to enable. It was worth it though, liking this phone. Twrp would be nice.

Hello, I'm very new to this forum (first post), and mobile phone flashing in general, plus I wasn't sure if I should start a new thread or just continue on this one.
I do have some experience with Linux (Debian) systems on computers and tablets, so I am relatively familiar with flashing and reinstalling in general, and can follow directions relatively easily.

I was recently gifted a Motorola G Power (2022) (TONGA), more precisely a XT2165-5 with Android 11 RRQ31-Q3-68-99, as per Lenovo's Rescue and Smart Recovery, oem_locked (although the online shop advertised it as unlocked).

I would like to degoogle it as much as possible, ideally installing Lineage OS (it does not to be officially supporting the device yet), but despite multiple searches, I cannot find anyone who has done it.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?

And if that route doesn't work, what are good alternatives with other custom ROMs+apps?
I'm also curious about microG.

Thank you

Great to hear! How did you flash this ROM? I've unlocked my bootloader (it says flashing_unlocked on the bootloader screen)

I believe I unlocked the bootloader on this phone. I want to flash TWRP onto it.

fastboot boot twrp.img

does not work, nor does

fastboot flash recovery_a twrp.img or recovery_b

I tried flashing borneo and kiev twrp since there doesn't seem to be a tonga twrp

Is there any other way to unlock the bootloader besides Motorola's website? I have the TracFone(straightalk) version, very disappointed they won't unlock their phones. Won't be buying thru them again.

I followed the instructions to the "T" but I ran into an error with the vbmeta.img flashing in fastbootd, tried to flash it in normal fastboot, but it continued to bootloop after 30min of just letting it go. Is there an option or something I missed?

Go to the settings, phh tr option, then ims, check bottom two boxes, then install and install that, then dial *#*#4636#*#* click LTE only, check ims service status in top right dot menu, if ims isn't registered restart, then go to your network settings then sim and make sure volte is switched on, turn data off & back on, turn sim off & back on, then check ims status again on *#*#4636#*#* menu. If still not registered then install a better gsi
