But one question: is it possible to disable to bootanimation sound (Hello Moto). I nearly fall off my chair :D[/QUOTE]

I think you can replace the boot audio with one of your choice. It should be in the same folder as the boot animation zip usually called PowerOn.wav and PowerOn.ogg.
[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] echo92:
Or as abhi212b has mentioned, under Settings>Sounds, the Power up sound toggle will let you control whether the boot animation plays sound. https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=70937537&postcount=43

Can anyone help me, i flashed this firmware. The mobile booted to stock rom. After that, there was an update and i updated it. The phone restarted and started installing the update. But after that, the phones screen turned off. Now the phone is extremely unresponsive. Cant boot the phone(doesn't get powered on). Cant go into fastboot mode(even pressing volume down+ power does nothing) and the phone doesn't even charge. It just blinks the led while being put into charge. Please help, its urgent for me to bring this phone back to life.
[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] echo92:
If you flashed this stock firmware, which is really old (December 2016 security patch), it sounds like you hard bricked your device by using the OTA updates. The OTA update for the firmware may have corrupted your bootloader if you previously had newer stock firmware on your device.

I would recommend looking into this thread for help and guidance https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/moto-g4-plus-hardbrick-solved-guide-t3657761

What baseband do you have on your device and who is your VoLTE mobile provider? You may have to update to the latest baseband (for Indian devices, it's the baseband ending in .62.02R) for stable VoLTE. Easiest way would be to flash the latest NPJS25.93-14-18 April 2018 security patch firmware: https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138

Baseband : M8952_70030.25.03.62.01R

Volte Mobile Provider: Relience jio

i am using Android oreo RR

ok you are suggesting me to reflash the stock first to get ".62.02R" Baseband for stable volte. After than i can use any other Rom. Am i right?
[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] asingh470:
Actually my device version is XT1624 moto g4 and VOLTE works So you can flash any device version Rom basically?
[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] echo92:
I'm not sure what you're asking - if you've got an Indian device, I'd suggest updating your stock firmware to have the latest baseband. For G4/Plus Indian devices, the latest firmware appears to be NPJS25.93-14-18. Even if your VoLTE is working and is stable on stock, having the latest baseband is a good troubleshooting step to figuring out what the cause is with VoLTE not being stable on custom ROMs.

If your VoLTE is stable on stock ROMs and not stable on custom ROMs, if you've updated to the latest baseband, I'd consider checking the custom ROM mobile network settings including APN.
[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] asingh470:
Actually thanks mate Changing the Baseband version fixes the VOLTE. I appreciate mate, Yes what i was asking you that

1. My retail variant is XT1624

2. Device is Moto g4

Question for you: So i can flash any stock firmware of other variants(Ex. XT1642 or XT1644 etc) on my device(Retail Varient XT1624)?

this is my question for you.
[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] echo92:
I'm not sure why you'd want to flash other variants' firmwares onto your device, though you could, it could leave you without OTA updates. The US firmware for XT1644 and XT1625 is different to other regions. If you're asking about the NPJS25.93-14-18 firmware, this firmware appears to have been deployed on Indian/Brazil/EU and UK devices, which includes XT1622/XT1642, XT1640,XT1643 and possibly XT1624. Thus, you've got one firmware covering multiple regions and this should flash okay to your device. Don't use the NPJ25.93-14 firmware - this is far too old.
[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] asingh470:
Ok thanks mate for clarifying this thing to me.

[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] echo92:
What firmware are you flashing and do you see OKAY with each image that is flashed?

You do not need debug options to be active, what happened to your device before you had boot issues?

I flashed to this ROM to recover my bricked G4 Plus (I was previously on the latest version of the stock ROM, tried to change to LineageOS but failed) and I've been offered system update NPJS25.93-14-13. Would accepting this update brick my phone again? If yes then how can I update the software safely?
[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] echo92:
Hmm, I wouldn't use that update - if you were on the April 2018 firmware as you mentioned and you're now likely on the September 2017 firmware (since you're receiving the NPJS25.93-14-13 Dec 2017 update), using that OTA update may brick your device again.

Safest way to update would be to fastboot flash the April 2018 security patch firmware NPJS25.93-14-18 https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138 You can omit the bootloader locking and fastboot erase userdata commands if you wish to keep your data.

The stock ROM in this thread is very old (NPJ25.93-14 is December 2016 firmware), so I would not advise using this stock ROM in future, or if you do, do not use OTA updates.

If it's the warning about your bootloader being unlocked and your device can't be trusted, like this https://goo.gl/images/ck75gK then your best bet is to flash a custom logo.bin which should hide the warning. You cannot fully remove the warning without re-locking your bootloader and the custom logo.bin will not shorten the 5-10 second delay, but should make it nicer to look at.

[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] echo92:
That's not a good scenario. When you downgraded to the old firmware, your bootloader would still have been Oreo. Thus, using the OTA update corrupted your Oreo bootloader.

We do not have a way to rescue a device bricked with an Oreo bootloader. There is no working blankflash, and unlikely to get one leaked. Your best bet is to pay for a JTag motherboard repair, get the motherboard replaced (likely at cost) or buy a new device.

[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Stanleywinthrop:
I'm an owner of a standard XT1644 (bootloader locked) which I use on the Sprint network. I must admit that I was very skeptical of using this ROM on my phone. I have previously owned Moto X's and I know from those days that flashing a different model's modem would cause problems. So despite assurances that it would be fine I was nervous when I took the leap today and flashed. So far no problems! Cell reception is fine and even better than marshmallow. Nougat on this phone feels very refined and smooth.

One note: if you are flashing on a locked bootloader erasing user data is not necessary. I did not and all my data was preserved.

[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] sakhura:
Yes you can Downgrade to Marshmallow if you have an unlocked bootloader you will have to skip the Modem and Bootloader files because fastboot and rsd lite don't allow Downgrade of bootloader and downgrading bootloader can hard brick your device

Allowing OEM unlock permits you to unlock your bootloader (through getting a code from Motorola), unless you've unlocked your device's bootloader you won't usually need it on (though if you're worried about something going wrong, you could turn it on so that you can flash a custom ROM).

Hmm, any chance of you seeing what the error was? I'm wondering if you'll have better luck with RSDlite with the 93-11 update and then flashing the 93-14 update over it: https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/android-7-0-install-nougat-official-t3531612

What happened when you updated to 7.0?

Once you update to Nougat 7.0, you could downgrade to 6.0.1 but you'll have to unlock your bootloader (and thus void your warranty) to do so: https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/guide-downgrade-to-marshmallow-nougat-t3515961 and https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/how-to-downgrade-nougat-to-marshmallow-t3487201 are a couple of guides for your perusal.

I already have the bootloader unlocked, because I had to go down to 6.0.1, because in 7.0 the battery was drained, I was warming alone, and the animations had low fps and all this continued to happen once after I restored the phone, the I do not care about the warranty, the company that buys the mobile gives me the same thing, and I have the bootloader unlocked (already change a G4 Plus as well) I just want to remove the "N / A" from the beginning :(
[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] echo92:
When you updated to Nougat, did you do a full factory reset? From what you mentioned, it suggests either the system or an app was maxing out your CPU or GPU and causing lag, as well as draining your battery (though there have been a number of reports mentioning the same issue with Nougat). Was this with the 93-11 or 93-14 build?

If you're willing to, once you flashed Nougat, you could have installed one of the custom Nougat based ROMs on here that don't have those heating or performance problems - https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/development

As for the N/A at the beginning, you could flash a custom logo.bin onto your device to hide it (if re-locking your bootloader doesn't work). You'll still have the 5 second wait, but it looks much nicer :) Here's a selection: https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/themes/customized-logo-t3451349

[Moto G4 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] echo92:
Yup, seems to be the case with quite a few users with stock Nougat, warming up quite a bit and battery drainage. I'd be curious to see what Better Battery Stats or GSam Battery Monitor say about what's going on. The custom ROMs based on Nougat, in my experience, haven't had the same problems with heating up and battery life seems to be good (for example, with my usage, about 10-15 % drain per hour with Youtube streaming over LTE)
