I'm having this same problem and no one seems to have found a solution
[Moto E4 Guides, News, & Discussion] madbat99:
Fastboot erase userdata usually helps. Extract the flashfile.xml from the firmware zip and and make sure you did all the commands.
[Moto E4 Guides, News, & Discussion] steevo398:
Thank you for your quick reply, but unfortunately there is no change.
[Moto E4 Guides, News, & Discussion] madbat99:
Then you did something wrong. Don't know what else to say.

A new firmware flash is a complete refresh. Did you try to flash TWRP or some other step you're not mentioning? If you executed all commands in the package, there is nothing else. Are you trying to flash an older package than what was already on the device?

You need the same or newer.

Don't try any other commands that are not in the flaahfile.xml included in the original firmware
[Moto E4 Guides, News, & Discussion] steevo398:
I flashed the most recent version I could find. I suppose I could keep looking, but this isn't an uncommon problem, it's popped up in several threads. Some claimed they've fixed it without an explanation and are no longer active, some have just left it at that. I suppose I can keep trying other versions, but it almost seems like I literally have to throw this phone away. As if it's permenently bricked.

Thank you for your effort
[Moto E4 Guides, News, & Discussion] madbat99:
If people say they fixed it don't ever follow up, it's usually that they realize a mistake they made and are too embarrassed to say.

Don't follow a guide, open the xml and execute all commands. Or try RSDlite.

Did you get firmware from here
[Moto E4 Guides, News, & Discussion] steevo398:
I'll give it another go and post my findings, but rsdlite doesn't work under any circumstance, no matter which version, which USB cable, which USB port, or how many times I uninstall and reinstall the drivers. I've been at this for a while lol
[Moto E4 Guides, News, & Discussion] steevo398:
So I definitely was doing something wrong. The RSDLite workaround I was using doesn't work. Turning the flashfile.xml into flashfile.bat is not a viable way of flashing stock rom it turns out.

Thank you for all of your help.
[Moto E4 Guides, News, & Discussion] madbat99:

Can anyone post this last update? NCQS26.69-64-21

I have 2 Sprint XT1766 moto e4's, 1 working, and 1 that com.android.phone keeps crashing.

So I tried to restore a backup on TWRP from the good 1 to the other 1, but com.android.phone still crashes.

This is my last effort to fix and I'm hoping that going back to stock will fix the com.android.phone crashes and need the latest firmware to do it. Can anyone help? NCQS26.69-64-21

Thanks. That worked. Stock ROM and recovery are back. I does say "bad key" on boot. I assume that means the bootloader is still unlocked?

This part scares me:

I vaguely remember unlocking it using ADB fastboot commands. Is that what is meant by official?

The Upgrade size was just 66 MB my error was factory reset after i dont have opportunity to capture the zip file to inspectionate what comes with it appart from the android security patches of july
[Moto E4 Guides, News, & Discussion] MotoJunkie01:
In fastboot mode use this command:

fastboot getvar all

Also, inside of every factory firmware package is a text file that gives you detailed info regarding the firmware build.
[Moto E4 Guides, News, & Discussion] MotoJunkie01:
You can downgrade the actual ROM (/system and /boot). However, downgrading sensitive protected partitions such as /aboot, /sbl1 & /rpm will result in a hard bricked device. So, if you ever attempt a downgrade using a factory firmware package, avoid flashing bootloader.img, gpt.bin & adspso.bin.

Yeah I got OTA notification too first thing this morning. Haven't installed it yet. It'll be a few days before I can get factory firmware for the new build anyway.
[Moto E4 Guides, News, & Discussion] MotoJunkie01:
The new update for xt1766 Sperry (NCQS26.69-64-8) brings its usual stability improvements, bug fixes, and security patches up through July 1, 2018. Also, the radio firmware has been updated to Baseband Version: M8920_15000.280.06.58.05R, with improvements with domestic roaming and smoother WiFi to cellular data handover with WiFi calling.

hi

try Lenovo Moto Smart Assistant to flash it the last firmware gets pulled fr0m internet
[Moto E4 Guides, News, & Discussion] MotoJunkie01:
It appears that other users have reported a cell radio issue as well after installing the OTA. Here is the fix:

•1. Remove SIM. Make a backup of any important files, media, photos, data, etc;

•2. Boot your device into fastboot mode, connect device and PC, and flash the firmware package in the OP. WARNING: ignore flashing gpt.bin, bootloader.img & adspso.bin, but flash all other partitions and execute all other commands in order. Before executing the last command in the instructions, execute these lines:

fastboot oem config fsg-id sprint

fastboot oem config carrier sprint

fastboot oem fb_mode_clear

•3. Power off and reinstall SIM. Reboot device;

•4. Upon reboot and after initial setup, ensure a WiFi connection is made and download/install the OTA update once prompted, or you may manually trigger the OTA from Settings;

•5. Once OTA is installed, radio should be fully functional upon reboot.
[Moto E4 Guides, News, & Discussion] ozmage:
this can solve why takes takes longer time to catch the carrier signal on my phone or its just for people with the radio off because mine still working.
[Moto E4 Guides, News, & Discussion] MotoJunkie01:
Not certain why some people had issues while others did not. The support lines over at Motorola Mobility/Lenovo received several reports of the bug but as of yet the cause has not been determined. I likewise didn't have any issues with the OTA.

[Moto E4 Guides, News, & Discussion] MotoJunkie01:
Baseband Update

Important: I cannot confirm whether this updated radio/baseband firmware will function with a firmware build previous to NCQS26.69-64-8. However, there is no known danger in downgrading or upgrading radio firmware in a manner which is inconsistent with the corresponding firmware version. In other words, you are not going to brick or damage your device by flashing this radio firmware on top of a build previous to NCQS26.69-64-8. If it doesn't work, simply flash the radio firmware from the firmware package in the OP.

(modem.img = NON-HLOS.bin)

(fsg.img = fsg.mbn)

These are the radio firmware files as updated from the latest OTA. Download these files and place them in your ADB/Fastboot directory on your PC. Connect your device and PC with a quality charging/syncing cable, boot device into AP Fastboot mode, and open a command window in your ADB/Fastboot directory. Execute the following commands to update your Baseband Version to M8920_15000.280.06.58.05R:

fastboot oem fb_mode_set

fastboot flash modem modem.img

fastboot erase modemst1

fastboot erase modemst2

fastboot flash fsg fsg.img

fastboot erase DDR

fastboot erase carrier

fastboot oem fb_mode_clear

Mine takes about ten seconds following complete boot of the OS. It starts with full signal bars, quickly showing the LTE indicator, which then disappears, and finally locks the LTE signal with indicator.
[Moto E4 Guides, News, & Discussion] sidgallup:
So, i got a brand new Boost E4 a few days ago, and i took every OTA on stock ROM just to get the latest bootloader and patches before installing a custom ROM.

However, after flashing LineageOS i coldnt get my simcard to work, so no calls, GSM radio is dead. I see some other people having the same problem which means it wasnt me that broke something. Anyways, i guess downgrading to any full stock ROM is not possible and our only hopes are flashing just the modem from an older stock build and restore GSM radio funcionality.

Can anyone confirm that this is caused by taking the latest OTA which has the July security patches? asking because i have another Boost E4 that i need to unlock for GSM flashing a custom ROM, and would like to update the bootloader and baseband to the latest one that was working on GSM.

EDIT: After reading all posts in this thread im not sure if anyone has tried to solve the radio issue by just flashing the modem.img from a previous stock build version. Im not familiar with the build number versions but i have two Boost E4, one works just fine on GSM and it was updated OTA only to the January 2018 updates on this one baseband build ends on 02R, the other phone has radio issues and wont get signal, this one was updated all the way to the latest July update and it has baseband 05e.

Not sure if anyone has tried just flashing the older modem...
