- 1 for Motorola Moto G7 Power (ocean)
It would be great to use it as a daily driver with /e/ on board.

E-love, I have been using LineageOS on my Motorola G7 Power for a couple of months so far. From what I practiced and learned from internet foums, issue with colours (setting again in display->advanced->colors) is quite common for this device. I wonder if it is not working on Lineage, will it work on /e/ ?
I believe that screen issue during a phone call is more problematic.
Currently I had to switch to another device so I could start using /e/ in practice and so far I have started looking forward for option to go back to Motorola G7 Power however with /e/ on board.

Yeah somehow the phone call screen availability resolved itselfā¦! The colors are still an issue off and on, but the big remaining problem for me is having to install a third party app in order to backup texts/calls because the stock app ābackupā button is non responsiveā¦ (esp relevant because recently, my texts have been incoming to the wrong threads although outgoing is no problem, so I need to reset settingsā¦)
All told, OK, but would def appreciate more support
Thank your for your effort in the first place. 
I just wanted to let you know that in LineageOS the glitching colours is not solved yet as well 
I am not a developer, but I also learned a lot during last sligthly over a year in order to divorce Google and Facebook. The question is, if any help I can offer in this situation 
Another tricky point is the fact that my Moto G7 Power is my only phone/daily driver ā¦ 
Oh yeah, I think the main help most of us here can offer is just staying updated when news comes outā¦
E.g. just today I got a message from metropcs saying that my VoLTE settings might be interfering with my service quality, for which they suggest an update, but they donāt have one for Motorola (other than oneplusā¦); Iām not going to mess with it until it says āare your texts arriving to the wrong threads?ā, which I doubt will happen at all, sooooā¦
I d k about others here, but Iām getting terrible data service (esp pdanet, which no longer works at all on this phone, and although pairvpn was supposed to replace it, my laptop is too old for that solution), and it seems like every 6 months or so, metripcs has for some new data services problem for me to solve (pushing me it feels, ever closer to their unlimited plans)ā¦
I imagine this has something to do with /e/ being installed,and more particularly i bet a locked bootloader (which is not possible with the current rom) would help me avoid more network issues than just those with pdanetā¦
Is there a fully supported motog7power ROM that Iām missing around here?
This from manoj regarding upgrading to /e/0.19, i.e. āandroid Rā (i.e. 11):
āAny OS version upgrade will require installing the latest stock ROM first to get the correct firmware. Always check that it is the same version of the OS. If as in this case the same Android 11 stock is not available the next best option is to get the latest stock 10 OS first and then /e/ R. Once you have /e/ R the next builds will be OTA.ā
Just FYI (i ran into it while trying to follow the upgrade instructions that say you need the stock rom)
wanted to confirm a few things FYI about /e/-19 install
Of note, I was upgrading from /e/-13 so Iād basically already done the first few steps of doc.e.foundation/devices/ocean/install
This time (without having installed the most up to date android stock rom because it kept throwing various errors depending on how I tried), the first attempt to flash /e/-19 seemed successful, but I started getting errors loading files back onto my device as though it didnāt have enough room and the unlock pattern was not working
The second time i tried to format and flash again I went up through the point of copy-partitions, then instead of /e/_recovery, i used twrp 3.5.1_10 to wipe as much as I could, and installed /e/-19 from there.
When i used twrp to boot into slot B, it gave me the /e/-19 welcome screen (as expected, all good), but using twrp to boot into A gives me a boot loop even though I can boot into recovery from the bootloader to /e/-recovery, which itself tells me āactive slot: aā, (previously it was b), but so far no problem as long as i can get ota updates that donāt break anythingā¦
