[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] highjack2k:
I finally had some time to play with my phone and unbricked the device.

I had the same error as many in this thread.

I got it only to work by placing a sd card with the stuff XT1635-02_ADDISON_RETEU-EMEA_MPN24.104-25_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-XT1635-02_CFC_EMEA.xml.zip.

I put it on a 8GiB SD Card and initialising the flash worked for me.

Finally I updated all the stuff on a lvm volume on my pc and flashed it with the recovery back to the phone. Only the oem image did not work.

But my patch level ist 1st of august 2017. Is there no newer image of android for the moto z play?

The twrp crashed panics always while pushing the images over adb. One of the following lines solved or hides the problem.
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] G_HACK:
Yeah, for those in need of a recap:

1) Connect the bricked phone to your PC and use this blankflash: http://cloud.vache-android.com/Moto/albus/blankflash/

2) Once you boot to the bootloader, flash these files: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7X...x5ejEyX1U/view

Code:

fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

3) Flash 7.0 ROM like you normally would, but WITHOUT replacing the files flashed previously.

4) Profit

If you wanna use stock, don´t update it or it will brick again (we need to wait for a new release to be able to fix that).

My recommendation: use Lineage and forget about it bricking ever again.

I just naively accepted a security update and my z play is stuck on TWRP boot :(
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] SherlockDk:
New?

Any news? I recently upgraded android 7.1.2 with new February patch. When I downgraded to 7.0, I was wrong to allow ota update and I got the hardbrick.

Any news on new functional blankflash?

not working yet, on hold ....

I'm having the same problem, it was in the February 1, 7.1.1 release and I unlocked it to put the 7.1.1 version of December and so put the 8.0 but in the end my z play was caught in the white light.

I already used the 2017 version files and it does not work.

I need updated with the blank flash version of February 2018 or an already updated 8.0

I was charged 200 for the repair. I'd rather wait.

[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Jaderalves:
only wait going blankflash for this version ,As soon as Oreo comes out the blankflash is released together probably
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] echo92:
Depends on if a factory image of Oreo gets leaked (not the fastboot image), which may contain the blankflash.

If not, then you'd have to wait for a leak of the Oreo blankflash.

If neither appear, then the only recourse would be a service repair.
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Fire21:
Many thanks! I got my Moto Z Play today back to live with your blankflash :D

EDIT: Reason for my brick is the downgrade back to 6.0 from 7.1.1 that i made and used OTA updates.
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] echo92:
Yeah, you cannot safely downgrade and use OTA updates, especially with downgrading from 7.1.1 to 6.0 - the downgrade appears to work okay, but you still have your newer bootloader from Nougat. As such, when you try to apply a Marshmallow OTA - or Nougat OTA that's much older than your bootloader - you'll likely have the OTA corrupt your newer bootloader and get a hard brick.

Luckily you were able to fix it, just bear in mind that if you do downgrade, please do not use OTA updates. Only use stock firmware to update.
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] Fire21:
Ok thank you for the information. I learned it the hard way I think :D

Here's the blankflash from the Moto Z2 Play (codename: albus) https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Kn6og2fRksBMwUnI7YDhIXVP4kiTe-E-

You could also try this blankflash here: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=73411048&postcount=206

However, depending on what was the most recent firmware on your device, these blankflashes may or may not work. If your device was on the later 7.1.1 stock firmwares or 8.0 stock firmware, even if you've downgraded, these may not work. Good luck either way.
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] KrisM22:

If you are asking about the blankflash from this thread. I did it for nougat and it worked like a charm. My phone was bricked for 3 months before I was able to get it back up and running
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] echo92:
Hmm, the QFIL/QPST depends on having new enough programmer files that are properly signed by Motorola to be successfully used in unbricking a Moto device. We unfortunately don't have those files. As mentioned above, the albus blankflash may be able to unbrick a device that had been updated to an early 7.1.1 stock firmware. However, for devices updated to a later 7.1.1 or 8.0 stock firmware, the blankflash may not work on a newer, corrupted bootloader.

The other option of having a full 'clone' of a working device - all the partitions of the internal storage, may in theory work (and has been demonstrated on the G5S/G5 and the Z if I recall). However, that requires a user making a full image of their device, including their IMEI and other device specific info. If no-one is prepared to make such a clone from a working device, your other option is to take your device to a service centre for a repair.

haven't you tried ?

"Keep your mobile connected using USB, obviously.

2. using one hand keep power button and volume down button pressed at same time and using other hand click blank-flash.bat file.

3. It might be possible that blank-flash.bat scritps get finished earlier, in that case, keep clicking .bat file continuously, you don't need to close previous cmd window. For me it took 5-6 run to get script detect/communicate with device. Here idea is that your mobile should get detected when you press power button+volume button while blank-flash.bat file is still executing."

I believe it is possible to use the mbn files extracted from the update soak-test to compile a functional blankflash, using the same methodology, I own the all files, the albus device and Addison. I'm going to load the files pro mega or Google drive, being available if anyone has interest
[Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion] echo92:
I've not done this procedure, though I imagine trying to clone a Z Play would be similar to this https://xdaforums.com/moto-g5s/how-to/guide-how-to-create-mmcblk0-img-device-t3803176 https://xdaforums.com/moto-g5s/how-to/blank-flash-montana-t3765150 You'd obviously have to adapt the procedure for the Z Play.

Be warned that if you are considering uploading the image for others to use, that it may contain your device's IMEI and other device specific information, possibly your data if you did not fully wipe/factory reset before taking the clone. That presents a security risk as well as the possibility your device's IMEI may be used for good or bad.
