[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] GolDragon:
From what I understand, the warranty only extends to the original purchaser and is non transferrable. So as far as I'm aware, I have no warranty on this device, and as such, don't mind voiding a warranty that doesn't technically exist.

I am pretty good at following instructions and have successfully jailbroken several iPhones and iPads in the past, and have even managed to unlock the bootloader and flash a new Rom on my nexus 7 lte edition. But I will admit that my success with the nexus 7 feels more like a fluke as I didn't really understand everything I did to get it working. That's why I'm hoping for some step by step instructions this time around.

Ok,

Does your baseband match mine

Those seem like interesting options.

Wouldn't I need the telus version since this phone was originally locked to telus? Or does it actually matter?

well some folks have had issues with flashing another carriers firmware and I'm not positive that bye flashing the firmware will it remove your sim unlock . I think you should be ok to flash the rogers firmware, its has bell crap in the firmware, so i would say its ok for all canadian carriers but again iI'm not positive.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] GolDragon:
Would the instructions be the same for each?

Could you give me the links for both?

Maybe I can download telus while attempting the Rogers one?
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] flashallthetime:
You do have fastboot and adb installed on your computer? Also you'll need the moto drivers.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] GolDragon:
This is the stuff I'll need instructions for (and links if possible)

Here's the firmware thread but there's no telus firmware. https://xdaforums.com/moto-z-play/development/moto-z-play-stock-firmware-t3454495

I did see in another thread more firmware but I can't remember where I say it.

---------- Post added at 10:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:15 PM ----------

Flashing:

Put the files needed in the same folder that fastboot is located, I believe it tools folder

Open a cmd window with admin rights

put your phone into fastboot mode and plug it into your computer

Type in fastboot devices

that should tell you if it's working

1) fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

2) fastboot flash boot boot.img

3) fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0

4) fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1

and do all 10 sparsechunk

after that fastboot flash oem oem.img

followed by fastboot erase userdata

and finally fastboot reboot

your device should reboot

This is one reason I root my phone everytime, ota's aren't always the best way to update your phone, I've seen this many times. I normally flash custom ROMs and always do nandroids , you can then easily revert back if things go bad.

This is great!

I will attempt this either tomorrow or the day after and will let you know how it goes.

[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JuanMnz93:
It was happening to me and the solutions was:

Install the full zip of OOS 3.5.5 and the patch 3.5.6.

Restart the device and let it initialize.

Reboot to recovery and mount system partition.

Go to terminal emulator and write this

echo: SYSTEMLESS=true>>/data/.supersu

And press enter.

Flash SuperSU and that's it.

I recommend you install systemless Xposed from Magisk if you use Xposed.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spannaa:
Go back to that thread, look at the bottom of post #1 and select a modified SuperSU zip listed under Oxygen OS 3 instead of downloading the latest stable listed under Oxygen OS 2
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheWolfSVK:
Thanks now it works
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] DT199:
Hi there guys,

i've updated my OnePlus 3 to OxygenOS 4.0 with OTA. After that, I made a factory reset/wipe with the stock recovery, and still don't get F2FS filesystem in DiskInfo. I've read many other user's that made this method, and now they've got F2FS filesystem. What's is wrong with my device?

Kind regards
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Hw4ng3r:
Stock only supports the /data partition as F2FS; all other partitions remain as ext4
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] DT199:
Yeah, but /data partition still as ext4.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] kcajjones:
I'm getting conflicting messages regarding this.

Is there a way to get the system partition working as F2fs or is it just the data partition the only f2fs partition?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] DT199:
The data partition is the one that matters.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] _MartyMan_:
I think that all of the stable builds have F2FS on /cache but not on /system, or /data.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] millicent:
I didn't check right after updating, I had root and TWRP before on stock oos. In the meantime I have relocked the bootloader and definitely performed some hard reset. So just checked for you and diskinfo says the data partition is f2fs now.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] vjendra:
Do factory reset from settings you'll get f2fs.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Paul_Nexus95:
Same here. Updated from 3.2.8 to final nougat build and OOS 4.0 OTA. Full stock, never rooted. Just checked with Diskinfo. No F2FS on data or cache. Don't know what's going on seriously.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] zeroafro:
You have to go to 'factory data reset' in settings and make sure you checked 'erase internal storage' as well.

Pls do a backup as this will erase EVERYTHING. Only then you will get the f2fs on the data partition. System partition will remain as ext4
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] maxx88:
Im using Oxygen OS 4 and F2FS

on data partition!
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Puddi_Puddin:
Only Data needs to be F2fs.. You can't switch it unless you format.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Marcelinho2808:
i made a Factory reset in settings and i choose delete internal storage then its boot in TWRP but not delete internal storage.

I try many times and i always check that i not forget to choose delete internal storage button before in do factory reset.But Internaal storage not deleted.

My Question: ow i can go to F2FS if factory reset not delete my internal storage?

PS. Im not that professional about flashing
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] jatbas:
Well... the same happened to me!

I did a factory reset, I choosed to delete data (yesss I event backup my stuff to my pc, so I'm certain of my words) but after the factory reset with data delete option... the data was still there and off course ext4 remained.

I will do it again when it's time to upgrade again. Until them I will not bother.

PS.: Is it possible to just format/change file system of /cache and /system and still keep things running???
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Marcelinho2808:
i do many times and i always choose erase internal storage, but after that phone reboot in TWRP and delete but without internal storage.

So any idea whats could be the issue?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] zeroafro:
Hmmm I think the issue might be with TWRP. My OP3 was unrooted, using stock recovery and initially on official OOS V.3.2.8, when I upgraded it to official nougat
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Marcelinho2808:
some people tell me its better to do factory reset with stock recovery, because of the TWRP decryption issues, just tried to flash the stock recovery.

Went to bootloader, "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img", and after i press the reboot to recovery button i reach the 1+ logo with the "powered by Android" screen and then device gets stuck.

Anyone can tell what's wrong?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] shoeseat:
i too don't have f2fs partition. OTA update to 4.0. All stock not rooted not flashed. Just OTA update using VPN. What went wrong? How to get F2FS partition?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Hw4ng3r:
What happens if you boot to stock recovery and do a wipe data and cache > erase everything
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] shoeseat:
i hvan't done it yet. I don't want to lose my data. I guess we need to erase partition or factory reset to get F2FS partition? If yes then i am ok for now to not get F2FS partition.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Formhault:
In the screenshot above, depicting DiskInfo, I see that the USERDATA is EXT4. Userdata... that's the internal storage of your phone. Basically, the storage you use for various media like music, videos etc.

My guess is that /data is F2FS, but /data/media (your internal storage / userdata) is still EXT4. Not sure why it would be like that, though, but anyway, your apps are in /data, and their load times is what matters, so... F2FS on /data is really the only thing we needed. However, I think that if you format the internal storage, it should become F2FS as well. I may not be 100% correct on this - since /data/media is part of /data, the filesystem of /data cannot be changed without the entire /data partition being formatted (including /data/media, of course), so... :confused:

Oh and you don't really need F2FS on /system. Or /cache...
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] nine5raptor:
If you have TWRP, you can change filesystem to f2fs manually and reformat. That's what I did.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] tailgunner9:
I wish Google kept control of Android on phones as Apple does iPhone. Then the Carriers would not have control of firmware updates from Google. Carriers have too much control when we get updates from them and what is in the OS.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] $hadow:
I don't mind the customized Android versions, but we should be given the option to sidegrade to the native Android version at any time we wanted. This includes Carrier mods as well as Manufacturer mods (TouchWiz, for example).
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Jonathan-H:
As long as the phone works, can't say I have any real concerns about the speed of updates. Android is pretty boring these days and updates don't really add anything.

[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] hrstoyanov:
Hi all,

As a result of some attempts to restore stock rom for KIWI-UL00. I ended up in a pretty bad state :(:

1. The phone reboots perpetually.

2. Putting a 64gb sd card with stock rom gets the recovery to 5% and then phone gets into the reboots cycle. I actually do not know if the dload/UPDATE.APP is being picked up or the wrong boot flashed in is kicking in.

3. The phone is unlocked, but as a result of the flashing I got FRP lock??? Here is what I see in fastboot mode on the phone screen:

PHONE is Unlocked

FRP Lock

4. Any attempt to flash in a new BOOT, SYSTEM or RECOVERY with fastboot ends up with error:

./fastboot flash recovery ~/Downloads/split_updata.pl/kiw_ul00_B239_Unicom/RECOVERY.img

target reported max download size of 266338304 bytes

sending 'recovery' (55968 KB)...

OKAY [ 1.768s]

writing 'recovery'...

ERROR: usb_read failed with status e00002e8

FAILED (status read failed (Undefined error: 0))

finished. total time: 1.769s

My thinking is that FRP lock is causing denying fastboot, but have no idea how to remove it. Without being able to flash in the correct stock recovery, I don't think I will be able to install the stock rom ever.

There are a lot of stuff written about FRP lock out there, but they assume working phone. In my case, I only have access to fastboot, not even adb!

Any ideas appreciated,

Thanks.
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] Dafriss:
But u still can get it into fastboot right? Isnt it possible to use adb then to root it and put twrp on it and after that put custom firmware on it to get it booted up properly again. And after that installing a stock image again?
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] hrstoyanov:
fastboot has very limited capabilities (I guess because of the FRP lock?) Some commands work, like this:

./fastboot oem get-bootinfo

...

(bootloader) *******************************************

(bootloader) Bootloader Lock State: UNLOCKED

(bootloader) Root State: ROOT

(bootloader) Bootloader WidevineKey: WidevineKey_VALID

(bootloader) System State: Bootloader in UNLOCKED state

(bootloader) Bootloader Version: 001.001.000

(bootloader) *******************************************

OKAY [ 0.011s]

finished. total time: 0.011s

but other like erase or flash fail with the same error.

Do you know how to use ADB when the device is in fastboot mode? I currently get this:

./adb devices

List of devices attached

My thinking is that in order for DB to work the device need to be put in recovery mode, something I cannot achieve.

The only other mode i can put the phone in is by holding the UP and POWER it gets into something that has "eRecovery", but the rest is all in Chinese . There are 3 menus you can select with the volume and power (no screen touch). The first one leads to wifi discovery and but nothing after that. The other two top level menus lead to restart - again they are in Chinese, not sure what they do.

relax buddy, try dload method with any other version of stock firmware,

and if it doesnt help,

first find a rollback update.app package for your particular variant, first flash it

then , go back to lollipop firmware with the same dload method,.

you should be booted to lollipop firmware,

than, go on to developer options and enable oem unlock option

start from there..
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] hrstoyanov:
The problem is that the "dload/update.app on sdcard" method only works if the phone has stock recovery and I blew that one off.

In order to flash in the stock recovery, i need the FRP lock removed, otherwise fastboot gives me the above errors . See my problem?

the eRecovery seems more hopeful. But is all in Chinese. I got to the first step where it finds my wireless network. I put the password for the WIFI

and it starts doing omething, but fails with big red exclamation mark and tones of thing written in chinese...

2. Putting a 64gb sd card with stock rom gets the recovery to 5% and then phone gets into the reboots cycle. I actually do not know if the dload/UPDATE.APP is being picked up or the wrong boot flashed in is kicking in.

.[/QUOTE]

This part of your post makes it sound like at least one part of recovery is still functioning. (I think there are 2 recoveries on the 5x, but I don't know the details).

I also had the "stuck at 5%" problem when trying to use the "dload" method. Here was my experience:

1) Using 64gb SD card (Class 10 or something fancy)

I was never able to do a stock recovery. Despite many tries after reformatting the card, recovery process always terminated at approximately 5% ending in a reboot without applying the update (which in your case would probably be a bootloop since the existing system is bad).

2) Using 8gb SD card (An old card, class 2)

This worked the first time. I was literally about ready to throw this phone away and send an angry message to Honor, and only tried this out of desperation. I've used it multiple times since, and dload recovery always works with this card.

My conclusion was that this phone cannot seem to read all SD cards properly. I'm not sure if the problem is capacity (over 32gb??), speed class, or brand. Try another card and it may save you. To be safe, it's probably best to be a smaller size, lower speed class card.
