My Moto G4 is not appearing in the devices section for RSDlite so I cannot start..is there a solution for this?
You could fastboot flash the oem.img if the bootloader is unlocked by issuing the following command
fastboot flash oem oem.img
This does not remove the ads that appear with the notifications. I there a solution for this?
Only for lock screen ads but we are working if we find something to fix the notification we will add that to the post
Uninstalling amazon offers or removing its permissions for notifications seems to have worked.
That’s great.Enjoy your ads free device:)
Does this works for Moto G5 plus Android 7.0?
