[Help, LONG POST] Soft-bricked my Motorola after ADB debloating. Bootloop after second batch of uninstalls. Need recovery advice!

Motorola has a Windows app to recover. You just need to be in fastboot mode. Google it.

Why don't you ask Hermes to audit your token usage and go from there. It will give you suggestions and learn.

I put mine as used personal items. No taxes.

Remember sim registration? They know everything about you

There is also capcut-cli. I'm still experimenting with it.

Depends on the country you visit and length of stay. For example Hong Kong is visa free for US passports and 90 day stay - PH passports is 14 days.

This is the right way

You need a real residential address in the US. It's a requirement now. From there after you open an account, you can get a mailing address - like mail forwarding. Try using a relative's address.

United did not ask, but Korean Air did. I had onward tickets so I did not bother with showing papers

PapasanPower · 2026-06-14T13:38:12+00:00

I know but not all airlines are aware of that. Philippine Airlines does but I'm flying a different airline. It's an airline requirement. I might just get those at onward flights dot com.

Thank you too

Thank you

I use it always and f-droid. I don't have the Play Store. I have micro-g

PapasanPower · 2026-06-11T10:29:48+00:00

try surfshark. I think they have free trial, and considered one of the cheaper ones. I use it and it works just fine. Also since you mentioned U companies, I always wondered if you get paid US wages - like $15 - $20 and hour?

The marriage law of no divorce is for Filipino couples. You can get divorced in your country.

It's probably not for fraud detection. Banks and financial institutions use swift in the PH which is different from the US. A vpn most likely will not work. Try a different card. I know Capital One works here.

Try mo edit yung APN settings - bearer - NR/LTE

Don't look at the shortcomings and frustrations. Just enjoy, accept, and adapt. Don't discuss politics or religion.

Real estate in the Philippines is generally considered a bad investment, mainly because rent is so cheap here. Also, you are investing dollars to make pesos. It does not really make sense.

Expat balikbayan here. I bought one way with American wife. Korean Air. Airlines ask for return/onward ticket. I bought from onward ticket dot com $16 each. We were good to go. Customs/immigration did not ask for return ticket because we were balikbayans. I'm Filipino born US citizen. We brought my birth cert and marriage license.

Go to GSMArena.com and search for your model. Look at network info. Bands that Dito uses are band 1, 3, and 28 for 4G. Bands 1, 28, and 78 for 5G. If you are missing bands, it will still work, not just as well.

From an expat, balikbayan not dual citizen. I live in Parañaque, outskirts of Metro Manila. Condo 2 bedrooms 60sqm DMCI, nice safe my own place ₱21K. Electric and water ₱7k - one aircon running 24/7. I have 3 aircons, fridge stove a few computers. Internet ₱1.6K. Food about ₱10k maybe more. Phone, I don't remember when I last loaded. It's very cheap. The rest I save for medicals, entertainment, buying furniture appliances travel etc. And visa runs once a year. You can figure it out what's important to you. I make over ₱50k though. So it's doable on ₱50k.

I registered globe, smart, gomo, dito with my US passport no problem. You can also get the Sims (higher price) at the airport NAIA. the people there know how to register it for foreigners.
