Below is the cid and ro.carrier i got from the command "fastboot getvar all"

Certain lines of output is creating doubts like..

it seems like my warranty is void, and ro build version shows retai and l.en.US,

may be thats why i am not getting Updates.
[Moto Z2 Play  Guides, News, & Discussion] gyarados025:
Updates have nothing to do with warrenty void bcoz i have got updates on my unlocked devices and ro.build shows the Firmware installed (i.e retail.en.US) where en.US is the Language so nothing to do with Updates.

Have you got any Software Channel in Settings , if not try to factory reset and Check the OTA.

You have updated your carrier to retin so there should not be any problem Getting updates either wait or try changing the Software Channel to other such as reteu , etc.. where the June update has rolled out
[Moto Z2 Play  Guides, News, & Discussion] flashnub:
i sideloaded the Update File from the thread

via fastboot

and luckily everything went smooth, now i have June security patch when i Check the System Update under settings.

You can sideload via adb, not via fastboot
[Moto Z2 Play  Guides, News, & Discussion] flashnub:
Yeah i meant via Adb with phone in recovery mode.

I only followed the command given in the post of the link shown, and successfully applied the June security Patch.

Excuse my ignorance, but I'm not very good as everyone else. I'm going to attempt this tonight on my XT1710-01.

1. Download ALBUS_OPS27,76-12-25_cid50 and ADB + FASTBOOT - MZ2PLAY and extract both into the same folder in Windows.

2. Install windows drivers and ensure they work with my phone

3. Boot into the Fastboot menu and double click the z.bat file

To Install TWRP:

1. Download TWRP here.

2. ADB flash like this.

To install both Magisk and Magisk manager

1. Boot into Bootloader after I install TWRP and download Magisk.zip and Magisk Manager apk

2. Flash via TWRP and execute commands on first post.

Sorry for the newbie questions, just want to make sure I don't mess up anything.
[Moto Z2 Play  Guides, News, & Discussion] HTCDevil:
No problem bro, yes, it is right. For flashing twrp i suggest use fastboot command:

fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

(where "twrp" is the name of your image file)
[Moto Z2 Play  Guides, News, & Discussion] cuban11182:
Well that didn't work. Now my phone won't boot and says ID: Bad Key and just hangs on that screen. If I boot into Recovery it shows N/A like it used to, but I can't boot the system.

EDIT

It wouldn't boot. I ended up flashing the factory boot image. I lost everything, but the phone works, so I've got that. I wonder what I did wrong.

Hi! Please help me i have the same problem my fingersensor doesnt work my when you decide restore s whole backup of stock nougat , you avoid the same comands : the 2 of modem + flashing fgs .mbn + one more don't remenber are they are 3 o 4 comands ? As same as doing to pass to oreo
[Moto Z2 Play  Guides, News, & Discussion] 2nqey:
See, it's easy to flash the ROM. Just flash the install.bat file straight up. You can edit the .bat file by changing it to .txt to check if there's m before the fastboot commands, if there are, you remove all the m's and then save back to .bat. And then click on it. It worked really fine for me when I tried it.

Now am running a custom ROM though.
[Moto Z2 Play  Guides, News, & Discussion] Polo240988:
Ok but You flash all comands or avoid those 4 comands skiping yo not lose signal ........ If You did all complete don't you loose the signal you movil Is dual SIM
[Moto Z2 Play  Guides, News, & Discussion] Polo240988:
Hi!!!! But when you did that ( without eluding any comands) dont you loose tour signal ??/ Your moto z2 play is dual SIM?

I don't really use the second sim, so no idea if it works (it simply shows the no sim sign). Sim 1 works without problems tho.

Hello guys, I just received June 1 security update. I thought I won't be able to receive updates again after unlocking my bootloader. And PS! My phone is rooted.

Did anyone else get this update after flashing this ROM too?
[Moto Z2 Play  Guides, News, & Discussion] Polo240988:

Ok, getting tired of not getting 8.0 update (on xt1710-02, verizon version) and just hoping anyone else can confirm that they successfully flashed this, on the same 1710-02 verizon, and maintained volte, along with everything else intact.

Any positive response would set my mind at ease, as this version does not have unlockable bootloader available; thank you in advance.

Also, if anyone has successfully flashed this rom on any xt1710 version on Verizon, and volte worked, that would be great to know.

Theres always a chance downgrading bricks the moto phones. You can only downgrade if you have a Un-Locked Bootloader.

Why can't you unlock your phone.

XT1710-06, dual SIM model

Good day,

I'd like to at least try Oreo, as I'm getting intermittent crash/reboot cycles with Nougat. However, given that I have a rooted phone, a couple of the commands shown in the list are giving me the heebie-jeebies. First off:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

My current 'recovery' image is a stable load of TWRP, and I want to keep it that way. Can I skip this command and still succeed with the update?

Next up:

fastboot erase modemst1

fastboot erase modemst2

I see the note in your original post as follows: "In some cases (for example XT1710-08) is useful to evade (if you come from NPSS26.118-19-1-6): " I'm not sure what you mean by 'useful to evade.' Does this mean skip these two commands if you're upgrading from the mentioned firmware version (as I would be -- That's the current build string on my phone).

Also, what, exactly, is 'ZUI?' There's a note in your post about not executing the command 'fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin' if ZUI is involved. I've never heard the abbreviation before.

In case you need it, my current Android version is 7.1.1, 1-Feb-2018 Security Patch level, baseband version M8935P_23.33.07.34.01R ALBUS_LATAMDSDS_CUST

Finally: My current software channel is retla. Can I change this to retus, per a post I saw later in this thread about setting this particular string with fastboot?

Thanks much!

I really need help on how to solve no service issue on both sims (xt1710-08). I have the Chinese version of moto z2 play xt1710-08. It came with global firmware(June patch) ,it was working fine until I tried to install August patch which I got online, I did installed it but I have lost both network signal . Reinstall the April patch again, still same issue no service but sims are showing present. I have done factory reset,reinstall the April patch no avail. Please I need help. Thank you in Advance.

Thank you. The phone got a white led light always stay on when phone is powered off or on. flat battery or full battery stays on. Light is located in front beside camera. Sick phone.

I was enable to fix my moto z2 xt1710-08. I had to revert to zui then flash August stock and i flashed all command expect "fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn". If you have chinese version( xt1710-08) is better you flash all command but skip fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn. For working signal and finger print sensor dont skip flash modem NON-HLOS.bin,fastboot erase modemst1 and 2.

Notice dont flash" fsg fsg.mbn". My little observation and it worked well.

Command for XT1710-08 to enable finger print and signal to work without issue(from any stock rom only zui from to April,June and August or from any offical global stock)

I have an xt1710-06 that is soft bricked. I can use twrp but that is it.

I have tried this method and many other similar ones but nothing seems to work because I either get a no command screen or it is stuck at the logo (which is id: bad key since the bootloader was unlocked).

The way I got here is because I tried to restore a backup via twrp but I only have system and boot backed up. I don't know if this is what is wrong but I has to be (this phone is brand new btw, the backup is the stock).

I tried flashing the newest stock retail ROM but it wont work. And because of this I tried flashing LOS but it didnt work at first because it resulted in "could not mount /cache (device not found". So I changed the file system on the cache to exFAT becuase I saw it was a solution in another thread. I then tried to flash LOS again but now I have an error 255 and dont know where to go from here.

I ordered a new one, same model and everything, would falshing a backup of the stock there on this one work? I dont really want to because if I can fix the "old" one, I want to return the other but a voided warranty would stop me.

Thank you for any help I can get.

If the phone is dead Ill just put an end to my modding days with the new one hah

NVM it finally worked. I dont know why, it just did this time.

Thanks for the solution!

Return to STOCK Oreo

Hello!,

I have a Moto Z2 Play

Model: XT1710-06

Software chanel: retla

ROM: Oreo Stock 8.0.0

Build number: OPSS27.76-12-25-15.

Baseband version: M8953P_41.50.07.63.02R ALBUS_LATAMDSDS_CUST

However, I have flashed TWRP 3.2.3 and Magisk to root my phone. All works nice, but I can't get OTA updates, so I would like to restore the phone to its original state.

I tried to flash the stock recovery.img file found in this thread, but the last security patch fails to install. Should I unroot the phone first? or is the recovery.img image incompatible with my model?

Thanks in advance ;)
[Moto Z2 Play  Guides, News, & Discussion] kewlzter:
You gotta return to stock.

use TWRP to backup your data partition to an SD card, so you can restore it after.
[Moto Z2 Play  Guides, News, & Discussion] GTRONICK:
When trying to flash, I get the following error:

[Moto Z2 Play  Guides, News, & Discussion] kewlzter:
What I did, was ADB an older 8.0, basically following the fastboot cmds listed in this thread https://xdaforums.com/z2-play/development/moto-z2-play-stock-retail-xt710-07-t3669668

Noting that my files folder had 11 system pieces instead of 7, and editing the script to reflect this.

Then after setup as new, updated all ota's then installed TWRP and restored my data (deleting locksettings.db).
[Moto Z2 Play  Guides, News, & Discussion] GTRONICK:
I understand, but the question is, should I ignore the error of the fastboot flash partition gpt.bin, or simply skip this command?
[Moto Z2 Play  Guides, News, & Discussion] kewlzter:
Hmm. I didn't get that error. Check your files. Have you used these system files before?

There will be errors, but none that interrupt the restore/installation.

I'm sorry, only help I can offer you is to give you my files and a .bat script to install.
[Moto Z2 Play  Guides, News, & Discussion] GTRONICK:
Thank you for the quick response. Time before I did a similar process with a MotoG 1rst gen. All worked without errors. I think however, this error is due I have an updated version of the software, I have the February 1 2019 security patch, so, it seems that when I try to flash, it assumes that it is a downgrading, and hence the error.

I have searched a lot trying to find the firmware for my model, but the only I can find is the one in this thread, and the one you indicate. But I got the same error with both. I'm aware of brick my phone, so I will investigate or wait more time for a more recent firmware.

Thanks a lot for your help!
[Moto Z2 Play  Guides, News, & Discussion] kewlzter:
I don't think that's an issue.

I initially (a few days ago) flashed 7.1.1 by mistake. Then I flashed a very very old version of 8, and had to endure 4 or 5 OTA's.

As I said there will be an error or two, as some parts of firmware like baseband can't be downgraded, but none that interrupt the install.

I wouldn't worry too much about bricking. As I've tried damn near everything, in an attempt to change my model region (09 to 02). other than a few stalls and bootloops, I haven't found a way to brick. I think that's when people flash wrong bootloaders, like one for a Z1 model.

Just make sure you have a TWRP backup in a safe place.
[Moto Z2 Play  Guides, News, & Discussion] GTRONICK:
Well, I tried to use the commands you give me, now, the phone can't boot up. When I press start on the bootloader, it shows the following:
