[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] TheXorg:
Hello everyone,

I've switched from Sony Xperia Z3 to a Moto G4 Plus and because unlocking bootloader kills some important features like noise reduction of camera on Z3 I just want to ask whether I lose anything but my warranty and DRM keys. :D

Thanks, Xorg
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] :
Motorola doesn't really have anything to use DRM. No, you will not lose anything. Flashing a custom ROM will see a reduction in camera quality, but that's the case with pretty much every device.

[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
If you're attempting to flash twrp onto your device, once you've flashed the custom recovery, you need to reboot back to recovery afterwards, else your stock recovery will overwrite twrp. After that, you should be able to reboot normally.

That 5 second bootloader warning is normal, as twyinlannister7 had explained. Best thing to hide the warning is to flash a custom logo.bin (e.g. from here https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/themes/customized-logo-t3451349) the only other way to hide the warning is by relocking your bootloader, but that's not advisable if you're flashing twrp or anything custom.

UI of the last used app remains on screen

Hi all,

I have these issues with my moto g4 plus :

1. UI of the last used app remains on screen as a faded shadow. I found this when i pulled down my notification shade and increased the brightness. later i saw this phenomenon on the UI of other apps too.

2. On pulling down the notification shade the icons of the app that had an icon in the top left remains as a weak shadow. Also the on the notification shade completely or partially pulled down i see battery, signal and all other icons on the right top as weak shadows.

These are very annoying . ANy one else facing these?

Hey guys, I noticed none of the custom ROM have the option to use 2G, so we are stuck with 3G and 4G, which are a bit more power hungry than 2G.

So, is there a way, we can get the 2G option back, except for reverting back to stock?

Hello my friends, i have the XT1641 model and i have no signal, yes it detects the SIM, but i have no signal and it says emergency calls... What can i do? Please help me
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
Are you on the stock ROM, what's your baseband?

Also, have you tested your SIM in another phone, or tested another carrier's SIM in your device? Do you still get no signal if you move areas (so is it tower related)? Your phone account is still in good standing (the bill is still being paid)?
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] WTF?:
I am unboxing a new XT1644 - I am going to run the Nougat OTA, after that is done, what is the best root method so that I can get still future OTA's and security patches as they are released? (while remaining rooted)

I plan to keep the phone stock ROM, although I may delete or freeze some bloatware using Link2SD (unless you have a better method to suggest). So I imagine whatever root method will need to be systemless. For flashing software, I will probably just stick with stock recovery or TWRP running via attached Windows 7 computer or else Flashfire.

I am planning to install these apps requiring root:

● AdAway

● Link2SD

● Root Explorer

● SignalCheck Pro

● Trimmer
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] rajatgupta1998:
Rooting methods:

For rooting stock N, you have to flash a kernel which allows root access (for instance, ElementalX / Vegito) and then flash a super user binary of your choice like SuperSU or Magisk. (I personally prefer Magisk because of the easy root hiding feature and the modules it offers)

Taking OTAs on a rooted device:

The best thing is to not take an OTA on a rooted device as the updater script and the binaries will check for modification on your boot and system partitions and will as a result fail/create problems. Moreover since you'll have twrp installed, even if you unroot, the flashing will bootloop the device.

To take an OTA you would probably want to undo all the modifications and it can be done by restoring unmodified system and boot backup in twrp and then flashing stock recovery, followed by a factory reset via the stock recovery.

But in many cases the recovery just won't mount later on.

The best way to take an OTA will be to flash the latest available stock ROM via fastboot and then proceed with the updating.

Debloating:

Try Terminal Debloater module of Magisk. It's available under the official Magisk modules' repo.

[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
Probably your best best is to keep an eye on the XDA Moto G4 Guides section https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to; as soon as we have any confirmation of a NPJS25.93-14.4 stock ROM or later that you can flash to re-lock your bootloader, you'll know from a topic (and probably lots of members commenting). Seems that Motorola/Lenovo hasn't updated their firmware releases on their website in a while (and may choose not to, perhaps to prevent users from inadvertently bricking their devices), and personally, I'm not sure if various phone news websites purporting to know of updates are that reliable. Besides, you're best not flashing random firmware without double checking its authenticity and suitability for our devices.

Can you please Check the link you provided me there is a post uploaded today at 4:41pm I'm confused its showing NPJ25.93-14

But mine is NPJS25.93-14.4

Is it same or different
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] :
NPJ25.93-14 is Stock Nougat 7.0 with December Security Patch

While

NPJ25.93-14.4 is Stock Nougat 7.0 with March Security Patch And Some Bug Fixes
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
In addition to electronode's helpful reply:

NPJ25.93-14 - this is currently the latest stock firmware that is in a format suitable for fastboot.

NPJS25.93-14.4 - the OTA (about 40 MB) that you've already flashed and has brought you up to the latest available version (i.e. the March 2017 patch).

Since we only have 93-14 as the stock firmware that can be flashed via fastboot (and thus be used to re-lock your bootloader), as electronode has mentioned to you in the past, appears like you will not be able to currently lock your bootloader if you're on the NPJS25.93-14-4 firmware, as your current bootloader may be newer than the fastboot ROM. You won't be able to downgrade your bootloader using the NPJ25.93-14 firmware (and is generally a bad idea to downgrade your bootloader, as it seems to increase the chances of you bricking your device) and thus likely won't be able to lock your bootloader that way, so as we've mentioned before, you'll have to wait for updated fastboot stock images to come out.

If a fastboot version of NPJ25.93-14.4 (or newer) does come out that we have access to, which is what you need to relock your device, keep an eye on that forum I posted as it'll generally be posted.

Oh, and as an aside, we won't be able to generate stock fastboot images of NPJS25.93-14.4, as I understand those images need to be cryptographically signed by Motorola/Lenovo. In other words, we need Motorola to build a more recent stock ROM (and then somehow we get 'access'...)

[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
Urgh, that's a nasty situation to be in, as it sounds like either the phone was reported lost/stolen, or perhaps the original owner didn't pay their contract off (and thus the carrier has blocked the IMEI). Can you contact the seller still for a refund/return or request a chargeback from your bank/credit card company? Else, we can't help you here with blocked IMEIs (as I understand it).

Often, stock ROMs have to be leaked. You have to wait until something like that happens.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
In addition to zeomal's helpful reply, once a stock ROM is 'acquired', you'll most likely see a post on the first page of the guides section, as members will no doubt be jumping on it.

As for whether these leaked stock images are genuine, as I understand it stock ROMs appear to only flash if they're properly signed by Motorola, and any changes to those ROMs need to be re signed by Motorola. So unless someone's got access to the private keys, the stock images should be from Motorola. As always though, check the authenticity and reliability of the stock ROM source as best as you can.

Hi All, My moto g4 plus has developed a charging issue...... It is very temperamental getting it to charge and will not quick charge at all.

I have unlocked my bootloader and thus the warranty is gone, can I relock the boot loader and flash with a fresh factory rom and return it for repair?

Obviously its a joke that the warranty is invalidated on such a fault anyway as the ROM would not affect the charge port.

thanks
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
I'd suggest checking your charger and charging cable first, doesn't necessarily have to be a Turbo charger either that you can test with. Just to check it actually is the device's USB port and not a faulty charger unable to deliver power.

If you've verified it's the USB port, you can use this fastboot stock ROM to relock your device. https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/moto-g4-plus-xt1640-43-athene-npj25-93-t3549369 this is Nougat 7.0, build NPJ25.93-14. be aware that if you've flashed the latest March security patch (and thus your build is NPJS25.93-14.4), this stock ROM may not relock your device, and we currently don't have any newer ROMs.

Still, it's up to the service centre and their decision about whether to look up your warranty status for a hardware fault or simply repair it... :)

If you want to flash back to MM, here's a guide https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/guide-downgrade-to-marshmallow-nougat-t3515961
