The description on the main page only has info on the Mediatek version. I have the US version with the Snapdragon, 32GB storage, and 2GB RAM. Is there a US version forum, or are they both in this one? Just asking before I post in case I'm in the wrong one.
Main page: The 2017 Moto E4 Plus is the larger version of the E4 series from Motorola. The 5.5" display has a screen resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels. The Mediatek MT6737 chipset has a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU and a Mali-T720 GPU. There are 16GB of internal storage and 3GB of RAM. The back facing camera has a 13MP sensor and the selfie camera is 5MP. The massive 5000 mAh battery comes with fast charging.
I think should have separate topics from mediatek and qualcom variants.

I see you were asking in the E4 forums. I have an E4 snapdragon variant. Like your E4 plus, there are mediatek and qcom variants both in the same thread and it's very confusing and frustrating. I don't know why this happens, but I'm afraid both these forums are going to end up like the Moto E 2015 forums which had the same problem with otus and surnia variants which were both completely different. I'd really like to see this changed before things go much further and the different variants getting their own threads. Looking at the qcom E4 plus, it's almost the same as the qcom E4 so I think the root method for that should work for the plus. It looks like the only difference is the bigger battery and 13mp rear camera compared to an 8mp.
Edit: twrp for the qcom E4 plus should be easily built with sources for perry by @squid2.
Edit-2: if your really desperate, we were booting a G5 twrp with fastboot boot recovery *.img then flash Magisk v14.2 and a zip you can find in the E4 section to disable dm-verity and force-encrypt. Should work just as well with the perry twrp.
So, I put in a request to have both the E4 and E4 plus qcom and mediatek devices separated. We'll see what happens.

They made a separate development section for the E4, but only made special rules that you have to specify qcom or mtk when starting a thread for the rest of it. I mentioned doing this here also, but was either forgotten or ignored I guess. I was planning in getting one of these also, that's why I posted here to begin with. You might want to contact a mod and request it before things get any further since the more content a thread has, the less likely they'll be to go for moving things around.
Edit: I don't know if any of you guys know it or not, but you should all be very happy pretty soon. This is all I have to say about it, so don't ask.?

Can we please at least have a hint?
Xt1776
Hey there. I have read through many posts about the Moto E4 Plus. I have yet to see anyone mention XT1776. Will XT1770/5/4 methods work on the XT1776 model?
I am on Boost Mobile.

Definitely Agree. I suggest adding [SD]-for Snapdragon and [MT]-for Mediatek devices. Keep it in the subject name at the very least so its a clear signification.
Please help me figure this out.
I unlocked, rooted and flashed a custom ROM on my phone. But as it didn't have Volte I reflashed the stock rom. But ever since the baseband version is unknown and no sim is being detected. I am using XT1770 Moto E4 Plus Indian Version. Please help....

It seems that there are a lot of devices with Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 Soc (MS8916) that have practically the same specs. Some of the phones are even made by big OEMs like Asus. For example there's the Zenfone 2 ZE500KL, which has the same 5-inch, 1280x720 screen (~294 ppi pixel density) of the Android One gen 2 devices.
Code:

There's also the Zenfone 2 ZE550KL, which is practically the same device but with a larger screen, 5.5-inch, 1280x720 screen (~267 ppi pixel density)
Code:
http://www.gsmarena.com/asus_zenfone_2_laser_ze550kl-7477.php
So my question, does anybody have a list or link to a forum discussion concerning such devices? This would be interesting from both a developer's and user's perspective since it would allow some unsupported devices to be supported using some minor build configuration tweaks.
Android One devices don't use the Snapdragon 410
As for a list, you can start here then check if each device has a sub forum in xda.

As some of you might be aware Google's awesome camera software with HDR+ was ported to devices running Snapdragon 820/821/835 devices. Now I know for fact we couldn't port that version to our Moto X. Even if could it would cook our CPUs.
But what about the older version of HDR+ that's on the Nexus 6? Can it be ported? It makes a huuuuugggggggeeeee difference in the quality on photos like night and day. Google's photo processing is leaps and bounds better than any other.
Been wondering this for a while as well. I believe it could be done.

Do you know which Snapdragon 800/801 device has the biggest development scene? Maybe prodding over there would be better, if it works for them it will work for us.
Are you talking about the oneplus one? I loved using the old version of google camera and would even like a 3+ version available to everyone. I wonder why google would limit the app exposure?

So my buddy has told me he will sell me his moto x4 for 90 bucks. There's nothing wrong with it and I checked the specs from here and gsmarena but I still want user input. Is this a good buy? If so I'll be coming a Moto g6 play and if you have seen there's not alot of development for that device and it doesn't seem there be in the near future

Camera is only with google camera king, stock cam has a terrible noise reduction algorithm haha
Hardware is great. Software is bad. It doesn't support call recording in Android pie OS, even with 3rd Application. For that you need rooting.
Thanks Guyd lol I had planned on using a Google camera apk anyway I hate Moto stock cam and I don't care about call recording tbh as long as I'm able to run pubg. And I don't so much about the software since there is clearly way more Dev support here than For my g6 play. I'll be part of the x4 family Wednesday ? screw this g6 play lmao
Hi, the Moto G8 Power Lite with Mediatek CPU don't have Motorola App, Moto Display, Moto Camera and Motorola Actions. I don't say why, the Moto E7 Plus that as the same comparable hardware have Motorola App with gesture and one hand mode. The only Motorola app preinstalled is "guide device", radio fm, motorola widget and "motorola notification". There is a porting or apk of Motorola App https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.motorola.moto&hl=it&gl=US&referrer=utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_term=motorola+app&pcampaignid=APPU_1_4_LdX7_mMZLakwXSjrf4AQ ? Some owner from Moto G8 Power "normal" can extract/mine apk of all moto app and post link with google drive in this discussion please? Thanks
I am glad to know I am not the only g8 power lite owner to want these features. They were the reason I wanted a moto, and I didn't even get them.
I've tried extracted apks for the Moto apps, and so far, I don't know how to make them work.
This is where I got them : (3) [Apps] New Moto apps from the Edge+ | XDA Developers Forums (xda-developers.com)
If you can get them to work, I would love to know.
Hope this helps.
as far as I know, the moto g 7 plus has :
ChipsetQualcomm SM4250 Snapdragon 460 (11 nm)CPUOcta-core (4x1.8 GHz Kryo 240 & 4x1.6 GHz Kryo 240)GPUAdreno 610
No Mediatek, that should be the reason why those apps do not work on the g8 power lite

My name is Yoji Holmes and I live in Memphis TN and I'm 19 and I have a OnePlus 9 pro and I have the issue of no SIM card detected after updating to Android 13 and I have done everything that's listed on other websites and that hasn't helped and then I found a thread on here that said that may need to reflash the modem because it maybe corrupt and then possibly reflash firmware but then I can't find a step by step guide on how to do it myself and I have called one store and they said they don't do anything like that and that probably other stores won't do that either so then I'm going to try and find a way to do it all possibly.
Welcome to XDA and enjoy the forums!
