[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] Vs1607:
Hello,

I've recently tried to flash stock recovery to be able to receive update . I had TWRP installed already . But whenever I type fastboot command , I get error like slot-count not found .

And that's not the case . I've tried with flashing bootloader and gpt.bin as well and get the same error ! My bootloader is working fine! Also whenever I try these steps, I end up losing my WiFi/hotspot connectivity !

Here take a look . I get these errror in ADB :

I've read all the related forum but none of them is similar to mine ! They say we've have to blank flash the bootloader . But mines working fine . Do I really need to blank flash or something else would work fine ? If i really need to blank flash , then pls guide me !

Thank you very much in advance !

Have a great day ?

P.S. = sorry if the related thread already exist !
