Greetings, just a couple weeks ago I got my first smartphone, and this is my first post around here. Hope it's in the right section.
Well, its a LG Optimus E615 (same as E610 with dual sim).
Running Android 4.0.4, kernel 3.0.8-perf, rooted according to this topic. Alright so far.
I wonder if you could help me with an issue I'm having
Problem is since I first started using it, I noticed that the clock always goes out of sync, about 15minutes to as much as 3h a day.
I'm gave up on automatic time and timezone already, since they are no help, so I ruled out operator giving wrong time already.
I searched around, found some topics like these[/ur] and [url=http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1999614&page=6]these, but they are of no help =/
It's kind of frustrating that even my old Nokia 6110 classic is able to keep track of time, so I can't believe such a high-tech device like this (ok, its not an S3 or S4, but still) that does alot more can't.
Google or LG doesn't seem interested in fixing it as far as I can see (it was already acknowleged by them)
The fact I received the phone as a gift purchased while traveling to another country makes it next to impossible to return or change it, so I'm really looking forward to resolving it on my own.
Would you guys be able to point me to some way?
Thanks in advance
Your gonna be pretty much out of luck. Most dual sim phones out of china are clones using different hardware then what they say they have. They also do that work really well with US carriers. So your best bet will be to check some Chinese forums

Hey folks. XDA noob here. I searched high and low on here for an answer to my question and couldn't find anything, so if this winds up being a repost, I apologize.
I recently bought a ZTE Unico LTE(Z930L) through Straight Talk a few days ago and I'm really happy with it. I'd like to get it rooted though, mainly so I can get rid of all the useless bloat. I can't find anything at all regarding a process of rooting this mother. I've found methods of rooting other ZTE phones (Blade, Open, etc.) but I'm not sure if any of those methods would work for the Unico, and I'd rather know for sure before I go messing around with it.
If anybody could help me out or at least point me in the right direction, I'll promise my first born child in exchange.
Thanks in advance!
New zte unico lte z930l comes with hack certificates pre installed +more
I feel you. Except I messed with my unico to no extent even returning one to walmart after tinkering too much. Here are my findings . I happened to get the z930l around launch. Since then I have try every known root method to no success. This phone comes with a locked file system that I never seen wow. Nothing I could do to get mount privilege for the inside . This phone comes pre installed with hundreds of certificates many expired japanese /Chinese hack certificates. Delete all cert with I blank common name. Disable lots of stock ap especially messaging. Then get go sms . Stock message ap has to easy access to changeable service center. Phone uses sure att towers. All phone have different service center number from phone number. If your setting get changed and you don't write or memorize service center number you screwed. Revert te default settings did not fix this. Calling straight talk and on phone with 5 agents for 5 hours did not fix this. IF YOU MESS WITH SERVICE CENTER NUMBER THEN WRITE IT DOWN OR YOU GET PERMANENT SMS DISABLE PLEASE LISTEN TO ME. I was lucky to be in walmart 14 day return. Only thing I like about the harder than necessary locked file system is cops can't install spyware easy at all. Just trust me. If you want a blazing fast always on 4g experience with all but networks then this phone for you. If you want root or privacy on this new coeus board then move along. Trust me.
just curious
so has anyone figured out a root for this phone?
I just got the ZTE Unico lte (Z930L). I just learned that the phone is the same as the Z998. Has anyone tried to use the root for that phone. I am really interested in trying it but really don't feel like doing it and bricking my phone but really hope someone has tried it so I can check that off the list of things to try.
I have tried the method for the mustang the problem lies in fastboot. there doesn't seem to be one. i can't even get it into recovery mode. the abd command just reboots it
i would love to root this phone there are alot of apps id like to get rid of and some id like to have different versions of.
Not sure if it actually works but I saw this I will probably check it out when I get home
Haven't had much luck so I'm posting on their forums for help
"mobilego . wondershare . com/forum/topic/160-zte-z930l-connection-problems/"
Also the link in the video goes to a different version than what was shown but "mobilego . wondershare . com/reference.html" has that version.
I hope this helps and if you get it to work please show how you get there.
(put spaces in url since i'm a new user.)
---------- Post added at 09:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:36 PM ----------
Will it help if we disable all of the trusted credentials or will that brick it? Fills like a hundred of them with a lot of them being stuff that seems a little shady being there
Finally found root for zte z930l!!!

I figured since it was locked out more than likely by the Chinese, i went to them for answers. I used kingroot 3.5.0, downloaded free and worked flawlessly! Took it a few minutes but to my suprise and enjoyment it worked. I installed root check and it verified! Supersu wouldn't install correctly so i used superuser.

Looking at purchasing the Virgin Mobile Moto G [3rd Generation]. Any ROMS being developed for this phone?

if your bootloader is unlockable then you can use all moto g 15 roms otherwise no.
Im curious about getting this for virgin mobile also. I cant see any reason why you wouldnt be able to root and run the roms available. Nevertheless I want to ask first; has anybody unlocked the bootloader and rooted yet?
Virgin mobile is cdma, ie sprint. You'd have to find a rom that supports this.

And how many support CDMA which is what Virgin requires? Because I've tried a couple and none of them give me service...
That is really too bad. Finally Virgin Mobile gets a decent phone, where there is plenty of development early on and it seems its for the gsm variants then. I've had my last phone (HTC Desire 601) since Nov. 13' and it never received a single developed Rom after almost two years now. Hopefully someone will port to CDMA because I really want to buy this being that its in my price range.

I wouldn't let that hold you back from getting it. Stock is actually pretty good once you root and then remove the bloat on it.

I started out with CM 12.1 and followed this in order to get service on my Virgin Moto G3: http://forum.xda-developers.com/201...-g-3rd-gen-t3174926/post64104373#post64104373
I then wanted to test this method on another rom, say Resurrection Remix.
Flashed everything and used this method. boom! we have service and data.

Are you still using the Resurrection Remix Custom ROM on Virgin Mobile Moto G 2015 3rd Generation? Did you flash the Resurrection Remix ROM in TWRP and then the APN Fix referenced in the URL you posted?

While I was on RR, it baffled me that I was not be able to send/receive messages, which was the killer for me. I reverted back to stock because I really didnt want to deal with those issues. Data/wifi worked fine with the method I posted. Flash Resurrection Remix, gapps, then go to mount and check the box next to system. Flash the apn fix provided in the link, then you will need to power off your phone in twrp. What i did was I put the phone into download mode and flashed the derp3 boot image via command prompt on my computer.
Some observations I found:
First boot into the rom somehow I was able to send/receive messages
If I rebooted the rom only once after the first boot, I cannot send or receive messages anymore
Data and wifi worked fine for me the whole time
Signal bars in status bar didnt look out of the ordinary
This problem is why I went back to stock. It was a real hassle for me, especially because I had to do all these steps to get everything working, and even after I did that i still had the sending/receiving messages part and I could not figure out why that was happening.
Bottom line, go ahead and try the method. The apn fix and derp3 img are provided here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/201...-g-3rd-gen-t3174926/post64104373#post64104373
If you wanna experiment (like flashing the rom gapps apn fix but not derp3) go ahead, I tried it and it works fine.
The only rom in which everything worked flawless was cm 12.1: http://forum.xda-developers.com/2015-moto-g/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-moto-g-3rd-gen-t3174926
Hope this helps!

Appreciate the quick and detailed response.
That is strange if data was working, texting wasn't.
When texting, did you use the RR text messaging app or a third party texting app? If you were using the RR text messaging app, I wonder if something like Chomp (which has it's own built-in APN stuff) would work - or maybe 8SMS or Textra?
Were you getting 4G speeds when not using WiFi?
I would use the CM 12.1 but I'm a 'dark theme' junky. Have to have all my settings and windows, etc dark mode.
Thanks again for the quick response. :good:

No problem man I actually tried to return this phone but couldnt...
I used RR's default messaging app and tried hangouts as well. Even a 3rd party app like hangouts gave me the same issue. In terms of Chomp or something like that, no I did not try that. Maybe you try it and tell me if it worked for you.
To answer your question about speeds, my plan was a bit odd. After 3gbs of "highspeed data" any data used after that would be reduced. And oh man it was a pretty drastic reduction in speeds. I used this phone for one month and was on unlimited everything, so yes with the high speed data I was getting 4G. It was consistent and fast after the reduction..
Ahh dark eh? Right in the same boat. On your phone go to this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2283828 and grab the updater app
Once you have the app click the three lines in the upper left hand corner, choose themed apps. Then choose Main Apps. This will give you the option to choose individual apps you want blacked out (ex. Chrome, Hangouts, YouTube). For example, if i want to install the blacked out chrome I need to uninstall the default app from the play store first in order for it to work. I did this on my G2 running Marshmallow, so just choose the desired app and install it as an apk (in some cases you will need to flash it).
I will let you play around with that if you are interested. A great theme that comes with RR is their Pitch Black theme which you can find on the Play Store. This theme literally makes everything black and red, which is my personal favorite. :good:

I actually don't have the Motorola Moto G 3rd Gen 2015 phone - yet. Just doing my homework before purchasing - which may be sooner then I expect as my current phone (ZTE Supreme) isn't getting any data at all. That just started within the last 30 minutes or so.
When/If I do get the Moto G, I will be trying the Resurrection Remix Rom. I had the TeamBlackOut app installed on my ZTE Supreme, however, I think they quit supporting the app at the first of the year. Whenever I would updates, no updates would be listed. Could have been that the site was down. Never did go back and check.
BTW, why couldn't you return the phone? Virgin Mobile has a new policy of 'no questions asked' when a customer wants to return a phone.

The blacked out apps are pretty awesome, even though it isnt supported anymore..
I bought the Moto G3 at a Best Buy store at the mall, and they only gave me a 14 day return policy. I unfortunately went over the 14 day period and could not return it. I am now trying to either sell it or just give it to someone for a present. Its a great all around phone, but it seriously got slow at times which I did not like at all. It is waterproof too! That's a plus.
Compared to my LG G2, the phone was a step back for me. It is a mid level phone, not a flagship. It got quite frustrating, but that's only my opinion.
i tried to return it for that reason and am stuck with it at the moment..

That stinks that Best Buy won't take it back.
I agree, Blacked out apps are awesome. It's too bad nobody wants to keep them up.
Do you have an eBay account? You should be able to sell that moto 3G easily on eBay And probably get most of your money back.
Thanks for the input and advice.

Depending on the condition of your phone and the price, I may be interested in purchasing. I've purchased used phones in the past, however, I typically don't purchase unless the phone is in excellent to like new condition.
Virgin Mobile's current price on the Motorola Moto G 3rd Generation is $99.99. Beings that your phone's bootloader is already unlocked and you have tested Resurrection Remix and CM 12.1, might be a good thing for me to consider - Especially if you had a descent sized SD Card with a nandroid backup of Resurrection Remix on the card to restore after activating the phone.

While it is a budget phone, it may not offer the most high end specs. Its a solid buy for anyone who needs a decent working phone. Now with that said, unlocking the bootloader does take some work via command prompt and research. It's not one of those phones where you can just download an app and you would instantly have root. But, it seems like you are interested in unlocking the bootloader, and I can help you with that.
The major downside with this phone that I noticed was mine only had 8GB of storage, I could barley hold anything on there.
It also had 1GB of ram, so that may be the reason why performance wasn't as buttery smooth at times.
Could you link me to the phone you were thinking of buying? I can see if it is the same one I bought. I would recommend buying the 16GB with 2GB of ram variant if you are wanting to keep this phone for the long run.
And yes always make a backup when installing any rom in case something bad goes wrong. You will then have your old rom to go back to in case you run into that kind of situation.

My apologies. I assumed the phone you had already had the bootloader unlocked and was rooted.
In any case, the Moto G I was considering was on Virgin Mobiles website. URL: http://www.virginmobileusa.com/shop/cell-phones/moto-g-3rd-generation-phone/features/
I have unlocked bootloaders and rooted many phones including the Moto G 3rd Generation. My personal feeling on phones is not to spend a lot on them as my occupation can be hard on phones (computer/network engineer) and a good but inexpensive phone is much easier on the wallet if it needs to be replaced.

Hi
I hope someone can help. I got hold of a 1st gen Moto G for my Dad. I rooted it and flashed the Ressurection Remix Lollipop rom on it. Logged into his Google account and all seemed fine as I set the phone up. He lives in Spain so I've posted the phone to him, he's put his Spanish sim card in and the phone seemed ok. He then switched it off and put his English sim card in. The phone booted to a very plain screen with only one text field asking for a code and emergency calls only stated underneath that. I've done some research and can't seem to find any help, I've ran him through wiping the phone and flashing the ROM again but it's come back on and has the same screen. With him being in Spain and a huge non technical guy it's difficult to get anything done, even over Skype!
Has anyone got any ideas on this?

Hello guys, first time poster, I've been reading these forums a lot for a while now and I really like the content! So I have a Moto G (3rd Gen) through Virgin Mobile. That phone has been running extremely slow, especially in the new app that came out, some of you might heard of it, Pokemon GO. Reading these forums I was able to root this phone (my 1st ever) with the intention of installing a custom ROM to make it faster.
However, being Virgin Mobile, nothing is easy. I installed that Cyanogenmod 13 rom on it, it worked perfect, I really liked it, however I couldn't get it activated. The Virgin Mobile keypad functions didn't work, I called VM and they told me to dial something like '##72786#' and to tell them the number that appeared on the screen, however no number appeared. Kept trying different things and nothing worked, I tried telling them about the rooting, but they never heard of that before... So getting to my point, is there a Virgin Mobile custom ROM that I can flash on the Moto G to get it to move faster? I have a UHS-3 SD card ordered, hopefully that'll help. Any suggestions on what to do? Does anyone know about the Marshmallow update, will that help, is it out yet?
Any help is greatly appreciated it. Thank you.
