@ronnz98, please don’t forget to build for the Moto G32

My Motorola family Moto G32, G42 and G52 is currently running CalyxOS along with Verified Boot | re-locked bootloader. A feature not to be underestimated. And the installation is a breeze compared to LineageOS, LineageOS-for-microG and /e/OS.

Moto G32 build is currently being build. Relock bootloader possibility is great.

Motorola Moto G42 (hawao) Mod. XT2233-2

Starting point: Stock Android 13 with Android Security 01.10.2023


Status1 Installation aborted

My installations with two attempts each with /e/OS and LineageOS-for-microG failed with the same error message in custom rom recoveries:
Install completed with status 1 - Installation aborted.


The subsequent installation of CalyxOS 4.15.1 Build 05.12.2023 was successful at the first attempt - including re-locked bootloader.



Update - see from #10



Did you try also official LineageOS?
https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/hawao/install

No, but LineageOS-for-microG lineage-20.0-20231201-microG-hawao is also official.

Strange, I would expect that official ROMs are tested…

Now the installation for the Moto G42 + G52 was successful with these CustomRoms: crDroid, LineageOS 20.0, LineageOS-for-microG and /e/OS-T by @ronnz98.

In the installation sequence, it is fundamentally important to install
adb -d sideload copy-partitions-20220613-signed.zip
to reboot into the recovery again.

Only then may the CustomROM be flashed per
db -d sideload e-1.18-t-20231209-UNOFFICIAL-rhode.zip byronnz98.

The error was mine alone! A careless mistake, but with serious consequences. On the one hand, I had misinterpreted the error messages in the recoveries and on the other, I had only skimmed the LOS installation instructions because I assumed I knew how to do it anyway :nauseated_face:
I apologise to all readers for my mistake, but especially to @Ron.

I extracted the payload.bin files contained in @ronnz98’s ROM’s e-1.18-t-20231209-UNOFFICIAL-rhode.zip AND e-1.18-t-20231209-UNOFFICIAL-hawa.zip to get the necessary files for an initial installation aka clean flash:

:eyeglasses: I checked and verified all seven links. Happy flashing :fire:

The Motorola Moto G52 is one of the few devices that supports an analog FM radio (with RDS). The special feature of the Moto G52 is: Stereo sound even in landscape format.

Side note 1: Radio Data System (RDS) standardizes several types of information transmitted, including time, station identification and program information.


Side note 2: I have not yet been able to test whether wireless image transmission of screen content (Miracast) works.

Thank you.

I also acquired a Moto G42 and will try this too.
