Moto Z2 Force

- Your warrenty is now void.
- You have been warned.
- Use at your own risk.

Introduction:

This is the official Lineage OS thread for the Motorola Moto Z2 Force, codename nash.

We support both the Sprint, International, and T-Mobile variants, as their bootloaders are unlockable, while we can 't support the Verizon and AT&T variants, as their bootloaders are permanently locked.

How to install:

Necessary Base Firmware: 8.0.0 (OCSX27.1.2, May 2018) (for TMO, or equivalent security patches for other variants)

Boot the newest TWRP .img from the Official TWRP Project Site.

In TWRP, click "Wipe", "Format Data", then type "yes" as prompted.

ADB sideload the newest weekly

(Optionally) You can flash the newest TWRP Installer also found at the Official TWRP Project Site if you wish to maintain TWRP, though the pre-installed Lineage Recovery instance will do everything you need it to in most cases. We don't recommend or support the use of the TWRP installer, as it is overwritten on every update (will need ot be re-installed every update), and has no addon.d-v2 persistence.

Click "Reboot, then choose "Recovery", this will boot you to either Lineage Recovery or TWRP depending on your choice to install TWRP or not. It is necessary to reboot between ROM flash and GApps/Addon flash due to verity/slot-swap logic.

(Optionally) Flash GApps - MindTheGApps arm64 are recommended, OpenGApps are compatible with A/B as of 09102018, but I still only reccoemend and support MindTheGApps.

(Optionally) Flash SU - you'll need to turn it on from in developer settings after first boot Lineage OS SU Addon. - Magisk works fine, though is not supported.

Reboot

Known Problems:

Audio Mods don't work (this includes headphone jacks on mods) -- We can't fix this, don't use custom ROM's if you care about these.

Official Lineage OS builds will not ever allow Moto's Battery Mod "Efficiency Mode" to work -- though these can be made to work unofficially, join our discord if you're interested in this feature.

Wi-Fi Calling won't work until either the International or T-Mobile variant gets 8.1 blobs.

Ultrasonic Proximity Sensor doesn't work -- likely won't ever. It is used my Motorola's Active Display, but by nothing in Lineage.

Compass doesn't work -- no clue why.

Stock Display Color Profiles (the ones in Settings, "Display", "Colors") -- The ones in Settings, "Display", "LiveDisplay" work.

The default LiveDisplay "Natural" setting in Settings, "Display", "LiveDisplay", will occasionally dispaly color corruption, to deal with this, just swap to the "SRGB" profile, and swap back to "Natural", or leave it on "SRGB if you don't mind, then you won't experience those infrequent issues.

Notes:

Official Lineage OS builds will not pass CTS/SafetyNet -- due to the AVB flag's "red" status.

Official Lineage OS builds ship with full treble compatibility, with VNDK runtime enforcement! This means that unlike most "ported treble" you'll see, ours is just as it would be from the OEM, and can run any GSI (yes, even Pie!) without need for hacks or additional flashable zips. We relabeled /oem as /vendor (as /oem isn't used in custom ROM's anyway). To use a GSI, flash official Lineage, then flash your GSI, it's that simple! Flashing a factory image will likely write over /oem and remove the mock vendor image. Please don't report GSI bugs here, report them instead to the GSI's maker.
