OK, No problem. Enjoy your weekend. Tomorrow if you have time & PC then please reply me with complete details. And If not, then answer me when you have PC after 2 or 3 days. Or you can type on mobile if you can.

Please tell me that during reinstalling the stock nougat ROM, should I completely install all the files in zip including bootloader and modem files etc or just I should install main system chunk files, recovery, boot.img & logo.bin without touching any modem files & bootloader?

Currently, I am on rooted stock Nougat 7.0 (latest march security patch) Indian Rom and want to reinstall stock Nougat ROM. So please tell me 100% accurate safe method (adb commands) to reinstall RETAIL Nougat 7.0 stock ROM with the correct order.

Actually Am I very confused and scared related to these commands. Should I also use these commands below?

fastboot getvar max-sparse-size .......................................?

fastboot oem fb_mode_set .......................................................?

fastboot flash partition gpt.bin ..................................................?

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img ........................?

fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin ...................................................?

fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin ................................?

fastboot erase modemst1 ..........................................................?

fastboot erase modemst2 ...........................................................?

fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn .........................................................?

(Please give complete detailed answer step-by-step and No short answers. I Will be very thankful to you for your help.

DON'T FORGET TO ANSWER ME. ITS REALLY VERY IMPORTANT FOR ME. TAKE YOUR TIME EVEN 2 OR 3 DAYS BUT PLEASE REPLY ME. I WILL WAITING FOR YOUR REPLY.

-NO you have to install all files in correct order to get it working ..... do not fight with modem files

you will endup with IMEI 0

to downgrade and upgrade from MM to N or from N to MM follow this thread[1]

[1] https://xdaforums.com/moto-z-play/how-to/autoscript-install-firmware-downgrade-t3558118

you have to use those commands if instructed in flashing script ( which generally comes in you rom zip file )

following adb commands are required in-general

Assuming you are using Linux ( you can remove "sleep 5" command if you wish, it waits for 5 second between commands )

there is no meaning of "fastboot oem lock" as there is no signed firmware is available as of date, so nothing will happen, your bootloader will remain unlocked

I do not include these commands for bad experiences losing the IMEI on several devices, but they can even put them if they like.

fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

fastboot erase modemst1

fastboot erase modemst2

fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
[Moto Z Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] sidg2:
Not sure but that's what I think. I think you will only lose your IMEI if you flash wrong firmware which is not for your region/country/carrier or If you downgrade from Nougat to Marshmallow and flash old bootloader and modem files. And If we are reflashing the latest correct firmware (all files in zip including bootloader, modem files like NoN-HLOS, fsg.mbn etc) for our region/country i.e. Reflash the Nougat firmware for that specific Nougat running phone. It should be safe and no IMEI will be lost. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

---------- Post added at 05:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:17 PM ----------

What is your mean by fight? " do not fight with modem files . You will endup with IMEI 0 ".

Should I reinstall/reflash the modem files or not?
[Moto Z Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] jatinkhatri:
It's simple ...

You have to flash everything which comes in ROM zip file ....
[Moto Z Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] diegochiva95:
Let me tell you that it is not correct, or at least in z play does not apply that argument.

I have seen that they use the firmware of their operator and of their country and still they lose the IMEI, and nor with this firmware of nougat recovered it.
[Moto Z Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] sidg2:
So please properly tell us which files/commands should not use during reflashing the stock nougat rom in Moto Z Play even for same country/region?

There is a RETAIL Nougat 7.0 march security patch on the web. People are saying that it is for India or compatible for Indian RETIN software channel. So I have downloaded this ROM for reflashing my Indian Moto Z Play Nougat march security patched mobile. Which commands should not I use?
[Moto Z Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] hamsteyr:
Does the model number matter?

i.e. XT1635-01, XT1635-02, XT1635-03

Wanting to flash this on my XT1635-03.
[Moto Z Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] sidg2:
[MENTION=5929950]diegochiva95[/MENTION] I think if we flash older bootloader, gpt, and modem firmware security patch files on latest security patched firmware, then the phone can also be bricked. For example, when we flash older version like January or March security patch Nougat's bootloader, gpt.bin, modem files on latest April patched Nougat bootloader then moto phone can be bricked because after security patched bootloader also updated to latest version and if we downgrade the bootloader then moto phone can be bricked. Thats why those people bricked their moto phone even after flash same Nougat file but with different security patched versions or different country/software channel version firmware.

Correct me if I am wrong.

Hi,

I bought Moto Z Play (model# XT-1635-03) from an online store which appears to be China variant. When I try to install Android Pay on this device, it gives me an error message that device is either rooted or customer ROM is installed. I did safetynet test which failed with message - CTS profile did not match.

I want to install the original firmware on this model - XT1635-03 which is suitable for my region - India or Singapore.

Please advise whether I can install RETASIA from the below link.

From Malaysia here with the same phone, the XT1635-03.

I flashed my phone with the RETAIL 7.0 pack from the mirror above, but all I didn't flash over was the partition file as the XT1635-03 has 64GB of storage as opposed to 32. You should be able to go just fine with that. For reference, the commands I used are similar to that in the first post. I also didn't flash the modem files over as the 1635-03 has different bands to the normal ones, and I was afraid of losing IMEI for my phone.

You should be able to get non-china firmware running with it just fine, but I don't think you'll be eligible for any OTA updates. Hope this helps.

Also, most international stores from China sell their local models preflashed to a custom rom that's why you're getting the errors posted above.

[Note 7 Accessories] RicePlay33:
Hi,

I'm bumping this thread because I thinked of something while looking for that mysterious battery.

While looking (again) for the Note FE battery spare part on ebay, I came across a battery made for the original Note 7 which's exactly the same model with the same specs but it's a third-party one.

I'm gonna have my Note 7 next week, it's a V2 Exynos ver. and I thought it could be interesting.

What do you guys think about swapping the defect OEM Samsung SDI or ALT battery by this one ? Could it be safer than the original ones ?

If you want to look at the sale, just type "Brand New Samsung Galaxy Note 7 EB-BN930ABE Replacement Battery" in the ebay search box. (Not allowed to post links cauz I'm new and I'm below 10 post)
[Note 7 Accessories] roadriano:
Hi ,

I just found the link and was wondering the same thing. Is the issue fixed ? If not I would go with S7 battery

---------- Post added at 12:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:16 AM ----------

Ok so I am looking for the new battery of the Note 7 Fan Edition :

Samsung’s refurbished Galaxy Note 7, aka the Note Fan Edition, was announced last month.

Samsung-Galaxy-Note-FE-SM-N935-64Gb-Black-Onyx-Factory-Unlocked - on eBay with 3200 mAh . I would take that battery instead of the 3500 mAh replacement you found on eBay .

I will start looking for Note FE battery .
[Note 7 Accessories] roadriano:
Did you find it ?
[Note 7 Accessories] RicePlay33:
Well, I've received the battery of the Ebay sale that I've shared, it's actually a Samsung SDI battery from August 2016..

Al least, it seems it's an original. :/
[Note 7 Accessories] Tetef:
no, not yet...

I found this.

They indicate the same number (eb-bn935aba) but I think it's a mistake .

I bought a note 4 battery, the size seems to match I now have to adapt the connector (welding the original cable)
[Note 7 Accessories] roadriano:
I don't think Note 4 battery will fit

Note 7 battery :

37.9 mm x 97.8 mm x 4.9 mm

Note FE:

37.4 mm x 97.2 mm x ~5.0 mm

Note 4 :

Dimension (WxHxD)

41.38 x 97.8 x 5.6 mm

Note 7 battery housing is :

38.4mm * 99.2mm * 5.4mm

The best bet so far is Galaxy S7 battery or the FE. I will order a S7 battery right now
[Note 7 Accessories] lulox:
Did you found a solution? I need one battery for the Note 7
[Note 7 Accessories] roadriano:
Hi , yes I installed a battery from Samsung Galaxy S7 . Fits perfectly.

I used Note 7 pcb battery to solder onto the Galaxy S7 battery

Works well so fall. One change lasts all day.
[Note 7 Accessories] lulox:
Good to hear that but unfortunately i dont have the original battery for the Note 7 :crying:

Any advice for me? I see there is a battery selling on ebay on the link shared on this thread but the seller is from Canada and i was looking for something in Europe.
[Note 7 Accessories] master3310:
I have 2 Note 7 batteries from Canada. The delivery to Germany took 5 days. The battery is not original. Capacity 2600mA. I tested the battery for a week. Not very good. Now I have the note 8 battery installed again.

Has anyone found a solution? I've got a Note7, but I got rid of the original Battery. I can't find anywhere ANY replacement batteries for the Galaxy Note FE (I've found the Galaxy Note 7's, but dates back to August 2016, so no).

I was also wondering if the Note 5's would work.

Everyone is hoping and praying that there is a new radio that combines the stability and great battery life of radio 2.19 with better reception like 2.61. 2.71.11 might be it, but its soo new its hard to tell right now.

Vikasmestry, but since it doesn't work out for you here's a good alternative:

http://rapidshare.com/files/84722422/T-Mobile-UK_2.19.11_Radio_Only.zip.html

Its the T-Mobile UK 2.19 Radio I spoke about. This is considered one of the most stable (no missed calls) with great battery life and a good signal. Its being used by all versions of the Wizard and in nearly all countries by someone. So don't let the T-Mobile and UK description bother you.
