Did you unlock your bootloader to change firmware?
You are now going to need the drmfix for the rest of its life

Ye I unlocked it. It's fine to do the drmfix, but how? I'm out of the flashing and similars since years I don't know how to do this.

Bootloader unlock wasn't needed at all.
Anyway, search XperiFix here on xda, but I don't know if it's ready for xz2 family. Oh, it's a paid solution, about 19€.

At least it can take pictures, only the preview is black :silly:
Due to the lack of pie support of the pay solution at the moment, you can downgrade your phone to OREO, install the solution, take a picture and upgrade your phone to PIE again.
You need newflasher v13 from XDA and the stock Oreo ROM I uploaded in the TWRP thread.
And a downgrade requires factory reset.
Because of the encryption.
Feel free to ask for help.

Go into my TWRP thread and install TWRP and magisk.
Root your phone, backup your apps with Titanium Backup
Downgrade to the Oreo firmware I uploaded there, use xperifix as DRMfix.
Boot into Oreo, use the camera to take one shot.
Upgrade to PIE and reinstall your apps with Titanium Backup.
Titanium Backup and xperifix costs some €/$
Then wait for xperifix PIE release to get your 100% photo quality back.

Would this serve for Motorola G6 Spanish too? And could it be installed in the same way as the soak?

This is not certified on the playstore... I updated it via ADB, but as an official one, I thought it would be certified. My device is not unlocked.
Other than that, I'm glad the audio volume is normal again (compared to the previous soak test).

The soak is an update, so no you don't install this the same way. This is an entire firmware package. Fastboot, or RSDlite.

If your device isn't certified anymore, you did something wrong dude. Wipe data for the play store and check again after a while (it's not instant)

Did you root? Set magisk hide properly. If you installed the full firmware (fastboot not ADB) Including formatting data, you have to wait a bit to see if it's certified. Until the play store finishes all of it's communication.

Im also seeing device not certified in the play store after flashing this. Also have system integrity compromised when checking for updates. Came from unmodified 8.0 with playstore certified and system intergity was fine.
Downgraded back to 8.0 and call audio is broken and silent.

Gonna go ahead and give this a shot, see if I have any luck with it.

This message is due to an unlocked bootloader. You can try locking it back.

And i can update on top of 9.0 soak test ?

RSDLite runs full clean flash so you can flash it over soak.

So, I installed last night when I saw this post, have used my phone all day, with no Google Play Services issues, like others seem to have, I DID however notice something really odd, maybe someone has some input? I noticed I had a voicemail, so I went into voicemail to check it, no sound, like, I can't hear anything via the speaker. My sister tried calling, I called her back, she couldn't hear me and I couldn't hear her. Notifications are fine, I can hear those, music playback is fine, I can hear that. It's just when IN A CALL that the speaker seems to not work. Anyone ever encountered this and maybe have some feedback?

It might just be the software issue, as mine also shows that device is not certified, although I can use Play Store with no issues at all.

No such issue here, maybe try reinstalling it again with RDSLite? Everything seems to work fine after ~30h use, also SoT increased a little comparing to soak.

Hi all,

opening app store, I get "not available for this device"
and now that I have "disabled" the app, I can't even find it anymore, nor do i see it when searching app store.
ideas? how do I make this work?

With an unlock bootloader you could try clearing data on the play store restarting but you might have to at least flash kernel if you don't want to root

Hi,
tried it, did not help, still getting the same error, "app needs updating" and then on the play store it says "not supported".
is this because of the unlocked bootloader? should I re-lock? and if so, will re-locking delete the phone? or is that just when unlocking ?
thanks!

Did you flash a kernel like elemental I think will pass safety-net. If not I know for sure if you just flash magisk you'll pass safety-net
Relocking will delete everything
---------- Post added at 05:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:55 AM ----------
If you do install magisk clear data on the play store again reboot and then open the play store go to settings and make sure the bottom it says device is certified and then you should be able to install your apps again

Keep in mind if you do decide to relock your bootloader flash the full OTA first or fastboot your factory image if you can find it. So you don't end up with a brick.

Using in-tune for MDM, which as far as I know, will fail me if the phone is rooted (from past experience).
which means i'm stuck :/

It's a cat & mouse game, where a new version of in-tune will detect the root, until a new root hide option comes out. tried it in the past and it's a headache.
what i'm wondering about it, I have friends with rooted 7PRO with none of these issues (runs fine). They can't watch in HD but that's understandable.
So this means it *can* work, so what am I missing? I would hate to have to re-lock and start everything fresh.

I'm not having any problems with root. but for you you're not out much by trying to just flash magisk. If it doesn't work for you can always flash the stock boot image, or flash the OTA again to put you back to stock

I had the same issue.. flashing Magisk and then hiding Netflix in MagiskHide solved my problem

OK, so digging deeper into this, seems the bootloader has nothing to do with it. it's just a playstore regional lock on downloading the app combined with just an older app version. finding the right apk to use to upgrade was just a matter of time, and now works very well

I think unlocked bootloaders trip safety net now. That means that you must root with Magisk if you wanna use stuff that blocks root (ironic, I know).

With an unlocked bootloader, you need to flash magisk for Netflix to work. Otherwise it won't work. If you use the Netflix app that comes preinstalled, you will get HDR even though it will be sd with an unlocked bootloader.

Netflix does not stream 4K on any mobile device, rooted or not. Resolution for all Android devices is capped at 720p (some iPhones and iPads can stream up to 1080p). Drops to 480p if you unlock the bootloader and lose Widevine L1 status.

delete, reboot and install from play store.

You have to work a bit to keep GPay working, and the solution definitely requires root. The current solution has been working for a few months and works on Android 10, but who knows if they will "fix" the current hack. You will absolutely not be able to download Netflix from the Play Store. There is one build on APK Mirror that will sideload and run, but of course you will get no updates. I've been running that build on the Pixel for about 6 months, and I have a tablet that does get Netflix updates yet I see no difference between that Feb build and Netflix even from a few days ago. Those are the only two things impacting me. Obviously, need to hide apps with Magisk and such is user specific (my car's door unlock/diagnostics/etc detects root without hiding it, but it works fine once hidden).

You can relock the BL, but you need to first return to absolute stock (no root, no kernel, no custom recovery, etc - pretty much flash the factory image with wipe to both slots to be safe). Then the relock will perform another factory reset anyways. So, if you are asking if you can keep anything you've done while unlocked the answer is no. To me, the biggest reason for unlocking beyond root is that it is almost impossible to hard brick the Pixel with an unlocked BL. It is pretty easily accomplished when locked down and can even happen as a result of a bad OTA or something that is not your fault at all.

yeah agree, why i think to unlock is about avoid brick or similar thing. but before i do that i need to know what feature will lost, so i asking here.
if relock again, all things will back to normal again right?

No, there is no residual damage like lost Knox. Everything would return to normal once BL is locked back up.

Try jsut reflashing the stock firmware, thats the best I can say to a possible fix, you can't downgrade due to downgrade protections that I believe are found within the gpt file unless thats changed

Unfortunately no, what you could do before doing the reflash is just doing a backup, you can use the backup option the phone/Google provides in settings if you want, personally that's what I do but I don't use twrp either so I'm not sure if you have twrp and if twrp affects that. I will say though I also have the Motorola edge 2021 and when I unlocked the bootloader while it was still on Android 11 my widevine got dropped down to L3 but then I did the ota to Android 12 since I didn't use magisk at that time yet and I'm not sure what I did or anything like that but my widevine went back to L1 and it's stayed that way since and I got 2021 in may, could be a similar thing happening with you just with the 2020 model. I can also say since I still own the Moto edge 2020 and got it on day of release I never had an issue with my widevine being dropped to L3 as shown in my screenshot it's on L1 using dev check, and I did just download DRM info to double-check that on the Moto edge 2020 and it is still showing L1 so I can't say if doing a reflash of the Android 11 firmware will work but it might. I've had to reflash The 2020 edge hella including using a blank flash to get it out of hard brick and it still hasn't dropped to L3 once

Thing is I've never unlocked the bootloader on this phone nor rooted it. Only thing I did is have it perform multiple OTAs one after the other when I decided to upgrade to Android 11. Maybe something got corrupted during that?
Anyway, thanks for the help. I may just leave it as is since I'm worried I'll screw up reflashing it lol.

Oh if your bootloader is locked and everything and you just been doing the OTAs that's 100% just some random BS lmao that's actually a situation if you know the phone still in warranty you can probably call Motorola about that and get a replacement fr lol, and I'll be the one to say/ask it since other people will probably see this and be like yo what the hek, how is it you're a senior member but you're worried you'll screw up reflashing it lol jsut use the moto flash utility provided here (not being a butt I swear, text makes me sound bad lmao) really unless you're trying to watch Hulu and Netflix exclusively on your phone widevine honestly is not that important to deal with either I don't think Spotify is affected by it so your music quality "should" be the same still at least but again idk for sure since I haven't had widevine issues with mine, jsut the 2021 model, but that fixed itself otaing to 12 lol
