[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] antiochasylum:
FedEx Express Mega hub is in Memphis. 99% of the time all Express packages will go to Memphis even if only going 30 miles away. Just how the system works.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] bigblueshock:
That's interesting. I've never seen a company mail a Fedex/UPS express package 30 miles (unless was needed next day air by the AM, or on a weekend). That'd usually mean paying extra postage no reason. Figure shipping a package Ground would get there by the next day, with the exception of USPS.

For instance, whenever I order a product off Newegg regardless of shipping speed (2day, 3day, etc) and it's coming from NJ to NY Metro area, it always gets sent UPS/Fedex ground regardless of shipping method. Also always gets here the next day.

Or maybe this is all because it's all directly done in the NY Metro area. I could be completely off with shipments from and to other parts of country

Hello everyone this is a purely stock flashable official marshmallow ROM for the nexus 7 2013 Flo version! It is based on the official stock 6.0 RAZOR MRA58V build, ROM and image for our nexus 7 2013 edition with nothing modified or removed in the ROM. I was trying to look for something like this but could not find it so i decided to make it myself. This ROM is always compatible with multirom also! The ROM base is not mine it belongs to Google and ASUS those are the people who made the ROM and the device. Hopefully this ROM can benefit you in some way so i hope you enjoy:)

Stuck on ' Waiting for devices' :

1) Make Sure your device is detected in Bootloader interface aka Fastboot mode, you can simple see your device listed in device manager.

2) Install Motorola Driver IF you haven't Installed it yet. Because it can be the main reason for this error. Download it HERE : http://motorola-mobility-en-in.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/88481

Hey, why aren't you replying to my query man? I've been waiting for an answer!
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] echo92:
Okay, a disclaimer that I don't own a G5 plus, so you may choose to accept or ignore what I'm going to write.

1) you've hard bricked and then used the albus blank flash to recover, then flashed the Addison (Moto Z Play) bootloader and gpt as per the unbrick guide, correct? You likely therefore may not be able to flash the NPN25.137.67-5 bootloader and GPT as your current bootloader may block the flash. Furthermore, I do not know if flashing the .67-5 bootloader would work or give you a hard brick that a blank flash may not resolve. It's quite risky and I personally would caution against trying it unless you're willing to risk your device becoming a paperweight. You however should be okay flashing the rest of the stock firmware apart from the GPT and bootloader.

2) locking your bootloader requires stock firmware of the same patch level or newer than your existing bootloader. However, because of repairing your bootloader with the albus blank flash, it is risky as the Moto Z Play bootloader now on your device could be expecting Moto Z Play firmware(assuming you used the files from the unbrick thread). If you relock, your bootloader may block your device from booting as your stock G5 plus firmware may fail integrity checks. Thus, you'd have to flash the g5 plus bootloader, which as mentioned above may or may not work.

3) OTA updates with a bootloader not from the same device or a different patch level are risky and likely lead to a hard brick. That's why switching stock ROMs to ones from a different region can be very risky, especially with a different bootloader. Thus, if you've not flashed the bootloader and GPT from the same stock ROM in addition to the rest of the stock ROM, do not accept OTA updates. You could likely hard brick and it may be the albus blank flash may not save you. In that scenario, you'd have to wait for a leaked blankflash or a Oreo factory image with the blank flash, which are newer and thus can be used to repair updated bootloaders.

Thus, I would personally not accept OTA updates, and probably forget about flashing stock ROMs. You'd likely be better off with TWRP flashable images of the stock ROMs which only touch the system side. They should not affect the GPT and bootloader which cause a majority of the hard bricks if misflashed. Or more correctly speaking, it's not the act of flashing the bootloader, but taking OTA updates with a mismatched system and bootloader patch level. You've already mentioned that your device was bricked then recovered and working, so I would try to ensure it stays working.

As an aside, these are not real time forums. Sometimes members are busy, don't see the question or may not have answers.
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] BoaHammock:
I got my phone hardbrick once. However after looking different forums and trying out things my phone came back to life. But when i try to flash stock rom, i just can't flash it as it keeps on saying can't downgrade. If i skip those 2 gpt and bootloader, can i flash the stock rom? Currently i am using twrp flashed firmware.
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] echo92:
You should be okay to flash the stock ROM without flashing GPT and bootloader, however I would suggest do not accept OTA updates. Accepting OTA updates whilst having a bootloader of a different patch level or from a different device (as in the unbrick guide) might hard brick you again. OTA updates are only suitable for devices that have the bootloader and system at the same patch level.

Else, I'd suggest flashing a newer TWRP flashable firmware build, as these don't generally affect your bootloader and there appears to be a NPN25.137-67-5 build https://xdaforums.com/g5-plus/development/rom-twrp-flashable-stock-builds-t3675616
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Outfield303:
You can't throw any moto g5+ firmware to your phone assume that it will work,

all the firmwares are different from device to device, and the firmware that I've shown in thread is for Indian version (XT1686) and its also tested and working

if your devices model no is XT1686 and IF your device had received an OTA about this patch which is NPN25.137-67-5 then it should work for you, this is why I asked about model no.
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] BoaHammock:
Thanks for the reply mate. It looks like i have to wait for oreo update then flash the rom to lock my bootloader.
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] roydhritiman:
okay..

so essentially, flashing this 67-5 firmware will be just like flashing any other custom rom right?

and we cant go back to stock unless we get a leaked blankflash or a Oreo factory image (oreo stock rom) with the blank flash, right?
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] echo92:
so essentially, flashing this 67-5 firmware will be just like flashing any other custom rom right? In a way, yes - because you're only flashing the system/modem side and omitting flashing the GPT/bootloader (though strictly speaking, most custom ROMs only flash a new system, without touching the existing firmware). Of course, to flash this firmware, you need fastboot - this stock firmware is not flashable via TWRP as is the case generally with the actual stock firmware files.

and we cant go back to stock unless we get a leaked blankflash or a Oreo factory image (oreo stock rom) with the blank flash, right?To the best of my knowledge, I think that's the case. Therefore, you'd have to hard brick again and then rescue your device with the newer blankflash, that is if the bootloader and the blankflash allow you to do this. They both have in built security checks which I do not know will be passed if you try this.

Hence why I suggested in the previous post to look into the TWRP flashable images like the deoxed stock ROM you currently have. They avoid worrying about the bootloader and there's a NPN25.137-67-5 flashable https://xdaforums.com/g5-plus/development/rom-twrp-flashable-stock-builds-t3675616. Most of the time you will only interface with and care about the system side of things (modem, kernel and system), so this should reduce the chances of hard bricking.

As an aside, this unfortunately appears to be a big problem of flashing the wrong stock ROM and attempting to revert to the correct stock ROM for your device and then hard bricking, as I understand it, you updated to the NPNS25.137-35-5 (US retail, May 2017 patch with patched vulnerability to likely prevent downgrades), then attempted to revert to the NPN25.137-67/67-5 (Indian) firmware, which is what caused the hard brick, correct? That May 2017 (or later) security patch is likely what screwed your device and you over, as Motorola patched a bootloader vulnerability by updating your bootloader and, as we've seen with the Moto G4/Plus and Moto Z Play devices, makes it very risky to attempt to downgrade/crossgrade.

[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] roydhritiman:

[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] BoaHammock:
It wasn't during fastboot. It was after the screen showed bootloader is unlocked. Device shows erasing and it restarts then again it shows erasing.
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] echo92:
Not heard of that before, I wonder why it's erasing despite the erase steps in the fastboot commands, might be to do with encryption?

I take it you were able to reflash TWRP and get the flashable back?

---------- Post added at 05:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:02 AM ----------

I think NPNS.137-35-5 is the US retail may 2017 security patch, following on from NPN25.137-35. This update should then lead you to NPN25.137-43.5 and/or NPN25.137-83.

For retgb and for retEU as well, I think you want NPNS25.137-33-5 for the may 2017 update, which is now updated to the august 2017 NPNS25.137-33-11.
