How to Root Moto G 4G LTE by means of TWRP Recovery

If you want to use your Android device in its maximum capacity without being bothered by default restrictions which limits you in so doing, you have to undergo certain rooting processes to unleash full power of your Android device. Specifically, if you desire to root your 4G LTE Motorola Moto G version, then it’s high time you read the tutorial that is given below. But before anything else, there are a couple of important reminders that you should put into account so as to successfully root your device.

Before you proceed into having root access on your Moto G 4G, you should have already finished unlocking the internal system of your device. This preliminary step is necessary because the action eliminates all limitations in getting into Android OS and changing the default settings. Another important reminder is that you should have a full backup system so that your important documents and files will not be corrupted while in the rooting process. You can go to several app services from Google Play to gain backup or you can save the current ROM through a Nandroid backup.

It is also advised that you install a custom recovery image, particularly TWRP Recovery because it is suitable to use on Android devices including your LTE Moto G. By using a custom recovery image, the root file will be flashed, so you should consider accomplishing this step before proceeding to the next step.

Take note that this is a manual method provided by the xda-developers as their unofficial operation/tutorial so it is essential that it should be done on a computer, your phone as well as its USB cable. You need to allow the USB debugging option on your handset by navigating to Menu>Settings>developer options. Also, see to it that you temporarily deactivate the security tools that run on your computer because these tools can influence interruption and interference in the rooting operation. Then, make sure that your Moto G battery status displays not less than 50% otherwise you should plug in the charger first before you continue. Finally, the process is exclusive for 4G LTE version of the Motorola Moto G, so if yours is not of the same kind, it is advised that you don’t attempt to do it because it can damage or soft brick your smartphone.

After confirming root access, your device already can perform quite a number of operations such as the ability to install apps that requires root access to operate well, eliminate built programs or processes as well as changing the designs and features and optimizing your device’s performance.

The downside of this operation is that once you apply the steps below, you will end up losing the Moto G warranty, because as mentioned earlier, it is still an unofficial operation. The consequences includes paying for the technical assistance once you mess up somewhere along the process. The other option is that you can look for tutorials to unbrick your Android device.

But looking at the bright side, a rooted Motorola Moto G LTE has the capacity to install a custom ROM firmware. That is, it can flash AOKP, CM11 or Paranoid Android. Also it removes bloatware, create Nandroid backups, installs a custom kernel, boosts speeds and battery life performance, and customize the Android KitKat OS. With this much of an advantage, you can consider taking risks and follow the steps below.

Assuming that you are done preparing your Moto G 4G LTE, it is now ready for the operation that will immediately follow.

Root Moto G 4G LTE with TWRP Recovery


1. First things first, you have to download the root file on your computer. Once you’re done downloading, put it on your desktop and don’t unzip it.

2. Use your Moto G’s USB cord to connect your phone with your computer.

3. Move the root package from desktop to your phone’s SD card.

4. Unplug the USB cable and then turn off your device by either pressing power button then select “power off”, or press and hold power key for 5 or 6 seconds.

5. Go into recovery mode on your Android device.

6. After recovery, select “install zip from SD card” then “choose zip from SD card”.

7. Select and flash the root file.

8. Finally, return to main menu of recovery then choose “reboot system now”.

In case it gives out boot loop error, go back to recovery mode and from there, pick “wipe data factory reset” and “wipe cache partition”. After that, return to recovery mode menu and select “reboot system now”. All things considered, now you can be able to use Moto G. In other words, you have finished rooting your Motorola Moto G 4G LTE with flying colors and designs. Congratulations to you.

Paint On Galaxy Z Fold7 Phones Is Already Peeling Off, According To Consumers

The paint chipping issue reported by some Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 users appears to be a recurring problem that was also seen with the Z Fold 6. Despite users claiming they have not dropped their devices, paint delamination is occurring on the anodized aluminum body. Samsung’s support page for the Z Fold 6 suggests that poorly grounded third-party chargers can cause leakage currents, damaging the anodized finish and leading to paint chipping. This is why Samsung advises using only official chargers. However, since at least one affected user on Reddit reported using an official 25W Samsung charger, it raises concerns that the problem might not be solely due to third-party chargers. It could indicate potential issues with Samsung’s paint application process or possibly that their chargers might not fully prevent this damage under certain conditions. Received the phone and been using for almost a week. Treated the phone like a baby but the paint seems to start peeling off (sort of) day by ...
