Glad you figured it out! I was going to say it's in the second zip file within the first zip file. Also I don't think there is a way to brick unless you lock your boot loader. As long as you can fastboot and have an unlocked bootloader you should be able to recover from anything. Never ever ever lock your bootloader ever again :P

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] imex1:
Hello Guys,

First sry for my bad English im from Germany :)

Today i have downgraded my Google Pixel 2 XL 8.1 (DEZ. PATCH) to 8.0 (SEP. PATCH)

I know this isnt possible but i do it.

Here is what i do:

First i search here in the Forums a fix for the multitouch Bug since 8.1, i try all methods but nothing have work for me...

So i try to downgrade my Pixel 2 xl from 8.1 to 8.0 with the official Factory Image Files from Google but it isnt work for me because my Phone say (after i try the OTA Update via sideload) that i have already an newer Version of Android installed.

So what to do?

I Install the latest Factory Image from Google (8.1 Jan.Patch)

After the Install i stoped the First Start of my Phone and Go Back to bootloader, than i try to Lock my bootloader via ADB. After the Lock i See an Message in my Phone Like "there is noch System installed on your device, device cant Start" Or something Like that.

Now i Boot Back to bootloader and unlock my Phone again but that error stay there and my Phone will not Boot.

I think OK there noch System installed on my Phone now and maybe i can flash the factory Image from the Google Developer Site.

I downloaded the First Image File "8.0.0 (OPD1.170816.010, Sep. 2017)

Booted my Phone to bootloader and run the Script "flash-all.bat"

The installation finished without any errors and my Phone booted without any Problems.

I think "OK cant be" but i Go to settings and Check the Android Version i have installed, and i See im Back to Android 8.0.0 :)
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] blaze9090:
Ok
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] imex1:
I have a Question:

After the downgrade to 8.0 i checked the System Update in the settings, but it says that im on the latest Version of Android :(

Any Fix for that?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] alia5:
Flash latest factory images...
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] v12xke:
What a very long post for nothing. Go to the Google developer website, download the latest full January build and flash it with the script according to the instructions given on the same page. Then drink a beer. Prost. :good:

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] stumpy352:
So, tell us how you're supposed to downgrade from 8.1 to 8.0? Especially since Google added safeguards to prevent this. Maybe I'm missing something, but to my knowledge it's not 'supposed' to be possible.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] TheSt33v:
Unlock bootloader, unlock critical, flash 8.0 image
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] stumpy352:
Is that all that's needed? Unlocking the critical partition?

Does that circumvent Google's anti roll back?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] TheSt33v:
Yes. I don't know the details of Google's anti rollback measures, but I don't think they were meant to apply to unlocked bootloaders. Google allows bootloader unlock to be friendly to developers who probably want to test their apps on different firmware versions. What would be the point of locking them out of various firmwares? In fact, what's the point of an unlockable bootloader at all if you're going to still put restrictions on flashing?

The reason why the OP thought he needed to find out a clever downgrade method was because he was trying to use an OTA to downgrade. OTAs never allow downgrading, and I don't think they ever have. This is nothing new. The factory images, however, will always work as long as both "fastboot flashing unlock" and "fastboot flashing unlock_critical" have been performed beforehand with the latest version of fastboot.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] imex1:
The only reason why i open this thread is, that after i try to downgrade to 8.0 my devise go to bootloop, after i flash back to 8.1 it works fine...so with my post i downgraded to 8.0 and its still work fine, im now on 8.0 with nov patch, the only reason why i downgrade is the stupid Multitouch Bug in games, so im waiting for official fix by google :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] thegof:
Ok, I've got a old Note 3 still chugging along. The USB port was starting to get so loose I was having difficulties even with new USB cords. So I figured I'd swap out the board as it's a pretty simple swap (or so I expected). This isn't the first time I've done internal repairs, boards swaps, etc.

I replaced the old charge port board with the new one, made sure the 3G antenna cable was re-attached, and fired up the phone. All seemed fine. The connections were good and the speakerphone and mic worked (one frequent complaint of bad replacement boards). But, I was on Wifi and didn't notice until the next day that... Mobile data would drop frequently, my phone would frequently go to 4G only (something I rarely saw previously, it's usually straight into 4GLTE here in Chicago) and mobile data was very unreliable. Frequently I'd lose all bars and even if it was showing 3bars and 4G (not LTE), I wouldn't have data. I rarely do calls so I'm not sure if calls would go through.

So I opened the phone again, and checked the connections. All looked good. I used my fluke to test continuity from the ground side of the cable on the motherboard through to the pins on the USB chargeboard (where they connect to the outer back case antenna). All continuous. Resistances are all very low, even on the old board. Still messed up data and cell signal. Hmm, the lower antenna is only the 3G connection I think. Perhaps I have a bad charge board after all. I swapped the original USB board back in, but it still had the same problem.

At this point, I'm not sure what the issue is (other than I have a big problem). Is it possible the antenna embedded in the rear housing is bad or was damaged during removal? I cleaned all the connectors multiple times (first with isopropyl, then with DeoxIT Gold). I have my previous Sprint Note 3, but I don't know if the 3G antenna would be compatible (perhaps it's close enough I could use it to test). Anyone have any ideas on what I could have missed?

Thanks!

I am looking for a stable rom and battery rom only. Which one should I go with? Thanks in advance

( I am not flashholic . So bare with me , I can't flash all of them to tried out).

Please compare

If you compare those threads, you can see following:

JX's NPJS25.93-14-8 -- ROM with June Patch

Dinner for One -- ROM with September Patch

Mea Maxima Est -- ROM with December Patch

ALL BASED ON STOCK
[Moto G4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] laofan:
Thank you for the prompt reply and your hard work.

I love the stableness of this rom series.

Would you encourage us go for the latest security update one , or we could go with any of them?

I care the stableness and battery the most. Just like to hear your oppion.

Last question: Do you use any app to use fingerprint as home button? Do you have any recommendations?

Thank you so much
[Moto G4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Jerome-X:
I would recommend to use the latest rom with the latest patch.

I am using the ElementalX Kernel, cause you can setup / choose by installing the fingerprint as Homebutton

[Moto G4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] corlatemanuel:
I don't know, the last Android phone that I used other than this G4 Plus was a phone shipped with Android 4.2.2 and then upgraded to 4.4.2, so I lack some knowledge here. Probably it was AOSP, not stock, since Moto's stock roms are very similar to AOSP but with little aditions, like Moto Screen, Moto Services, Moto apps like FM Radio, File Manager and Camera, which you can also get on an AOSP rom.
[Moto G4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] WallyWest:
Cause Moto G3 and G4 play have the same SoC and also the G4 play got updated to 7.1 where as the G4 plus didn't and because G4 play and G3 have the same SoC the stock ROM of G4 play was ported to G3 now you understand why it's not possible here

I apologize for the question, but about JX's NPJS25.93-14-8 someone wrote that he acted on G4, simply settings from the fingerprint reader did not work, will it be the same? Can I install on XT1622?

[Moto G4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] atlharp:
I can confirm on my end for no wifi and even flashing a SuperSU 2.82 causes a bootloop.
[Moto G4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] pastorbob62:
Yeah, R2 has some serious issues. I tried including the SuperSU.zip from R1 in the R2 zip file (by unzipping the archive and rezipping with the good SuperSU.zip) and flashing R2. It seemed to flash okay but when I rebooted the system it got hung up with a black screen and a flashing LED. After 10 minutes I rebooted into TWRP and attempted to restore my latest backup. It would not restore. So I wound up going all of the way back to stock, flashing R1, and trying to restore my most recent backup. No go. Hung up at "MTP enabled" Fortunately I have a Titanium backup from 2 days ago so I can restore most of my data that way, albeit 2 days old. At least everything is working well.

Guess I will be standing pat for now until I can figure out WTF is going on. Don't want to make any changes when the backups I make are not worth anything.

UPDATE: Well, as far as my backups, it turns out the problem was TWRP 3.2.0. I downgraded to TWRP 3.1.1 and the backup restored without any issues. So I am currently back on R1 with all of my data intact and staying there. WIFI and root work just fine as do all of my apps.

So far both R2 and R3 have failed to install for me rooted using both ElementalX and Vegito kernels. Clean flashed as well. R2 did great until I tried to root. R3 doesn't go past the "Checking Network" screen no matter what I do or in what order I do it in.

Boot to R3, enjoy

Thxs in advance!
[Moto G4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] pastorbob62:
I was already on version R1 and running well, so it worked for me. And I originally clean flashed that over Dinner_for_One. So I would say you are safe to go that way. However, make a TWRP backup before doing so. And don't use TWRP 3.2.0. It would not restore my backup and I had to fall back to 3.1.1. Also. do a Titanium Backup to your SD card so you can restore any data you want to keep.

Good luck! :good:
