I'd like to try but still a bit confused about the exact procedure from stock. Did yall install Motorola Drivers ?? Do I still need magisk ? This confirmed to work with MetroPCS varient? Sorry for all the questions and Thanks , Much appreciated!
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Project89Odin:
Haha, u guys if your not sure if you need to keep magisk or not I wouldn't be flashing anything lol just be careful. There are a couple root methods all listed and referenced, the twrp is still being worked on, we have one for the smaller variant of this device so we don't flash it only boot it to use quickly. The ROMs are still buggy from what I hear, personally I long for the days we had deodexed zip aligned ROMs with custom kernels and edited buildprops all kiiiinds of tweaks that actually improved performance versus what seems to be all aesthetic ROMs these days. Hopefully we see some amazing stuff for the device! I know we have some talented people working on it! Hopefully rbheromax gets to jump in there too!!

Decrypt/disable

If TWRP says "success" after flashing the decrypt and disable, will it still ask about decryption ?
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] skullkid383:
did u follow guide exactly if so ur good all u need is in guide already and u should be able to access data in twrp now
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] RobD691973:
Yes, I followed your instructions. I was just wondering because a mount/decrypt screen comes up and asks for a password before it goes to the main menu. Also, my phone isn't recognizing the SIM card now.
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] skullkid383:
ok so what twrp u using and what i would suggest going full stock then make backup of persist & modem to retstore before u decrypt so u can restore persist and modem so if anything like imei probs and stuff like sim can be fixed with a restore
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] skullkid383:
its one reason i got extra partitions that can be backed up
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] RobD691973:
I used the latest TWRP from the link you provided (not the Nora). Sorry about all the questions, I'm kind of a noob. I'm on a very limited income, so I need a device that I can update the OS instead of buying new phones. I really do appreciate all your help. :)
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] skullkid383:
all good dont worry about it any more ?'s can be answered easier by me in my telegram link im celtic king in there
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] RobD691973:
I downloaded the stock ROM and was able to perform a hard reset using fastboot, and the SIM is working now. The bootlader remained unlocked, but TWRP was erased. I still have all the files from your build with the updated TWRP. If I flash TWRP again, will the SIM issue happen again ? I did flash the original TWRP, so I'm not sure which one caused the issue. Or should I leave well enough alone ?
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] skullkid383:
refollow guide should be fine now most likely u messed something up pre-guide

[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] RobD691973:
Ok. So step 1) I move the decrypt, disabler, and Majisk to my phone, step 2) I Flash new TWRP to my phone while it's in bootloader mode using fastboot, step 3) use install in TWRP with the encrypt and disabler zips, step 4) format, step 5) use install in TWRP with Majisk to root, and done ?

followed these steps in the exact order with my Motorola moto e5+ plus XT1924-7 metropcs (Hannah), and it worked!!

i had to download & fastboot flash the latest firmware img's and then patch the boot.img after formatting and booting up, then uploaded to my google drive, but no big deal really. I was able to adb sideload the decrypt zip & magisk from twrp.

I'm now running rooted on the october security patch with xposed framework installed and everything. Thanks!!

---------- Post added at 02:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:59 PM ----------

get a copy of your stock firmware, extract the boot img to any Android phone that works, or your sd card, download magisk manager apk, install magisk to your boot img. it will make a patched_boot img copy, fastboot flash that copy it made with your pc.

Ok so I'm new to moto, coming from Samsung. Do I need to unlock bootloader for this? Because no fastboot commands work. Everything I have is up to date. I'm working with Moto e5 metro.
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Googleme35:
Yes you need to be unlocked bootloader and after that Came back here and follow skullkid383 twrp and have fun flashing Moto e5 plus Hannah
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] bobbyp1086:
thats my issues, in total i have done this twice, the moto g6 and i wanna say an htc a few years back, i try the fastboot command, with phone in bootloader, it just says waiting for any device, yet adb sees it just fine, is there something i am missing with fastboot? or maybe a "How to for dummys"?

Got a note 4 rooted with Droid drive and Ubuntu is second nature to me. I always thought this would be easier on Windows, never did use Linux.

The picture I uploaded, Console = null. Would that be the issue? I mean it's straight forward so I don't think in missing anything, even download a fresh version of adb and fastboot as well as the fastboot edl updates. I think what I'm doing, or not in this case is trying from a fresh install, factory reset and try again?

(Love the name btw, just modded the Wii u not to long ago for that reason)
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Googleme35:
Send screen shots of your PC and what shows on the terminal now if your device is unlocked for get about the null device which means to me u would have to flash stock again then flash twrp again everything you download has to be in the ADB and fastboot folder because then it won't do a thing so if your on terminal your gonna do fastboot devices device - Hannah then after you see number not Hannah type fastboot boot updated-hannah-twrp-2019.img from there your device should boot into twrp again when you hit fastboot devices and you see your device and it will not do anything else reinstall the ADB drivers I had this problem before for some reason i couldn't do a thing so what I did was is just install the same ADB and fastboot that you downloaded which I used the 15 second install of adb after that your device should work
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] bobbyp1086:
i cant get fastboot to work for some reason. adb works, both i got from google yesterday, i currently use a usb hub, thinking of going to plug in straight to pc, just a pain to get to, ill update after a bit
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Googleme35:
Just use the USB charger that came with your device idk what's a USB hub and if you have everything done how is it supposed to be then things should be fine I'll help you hold on I'm gonna send you with a group to help more ok here u go come here

you need the adb & fastboot drivers along with the proper USB driver for your device
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] bobbyp1086:
I've got it all, I just recently rooted a Moto g6. I still have everything, and my adb and fastboot are recently updated. I'm thinking it's my USB ports. I'm going to try on another desktop with USB 3.0.

There is one thing to mention.

Fastboot device acts like a command but I get no response, like I hit enter and it goes back to the original state of cmd

"C:\Windows"

When I issue fastboot device. That's when I get "waiting for any device"

My device manager shows Hannah in the device history, as well as a few other Moto related devices.

So my computer can see and it has the drivers.

Oh yeah, in recovery logs it states "if you see this....return to vendor your kernel has been modified" and selinux starts in permissive. Not sure what that means since no root, no unlocked bootloader and no modifications. I'll get screen shots up in a few.
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] bobbyp1086:
so I got the unlock code going to back up and unlock and get twrp installed, thank you guys for the help much apreciated

[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] skullkid383:
NP glad I could help
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] bobbyp1086:
I do have a few questions tho after running with it for a bit.

I'm not too familiar with newer root methods, systemless to be specific. Before busybox would stick after reboots, now it doesn't and you have to install after a restart, is that normal? I did find a fix with a magisk module just wondering that. Also I use a certain cheat engine now and then. Sometimes, most the times with this device, it seems it cannot read the data for apps, like no root even after granted. And lastly, any good Roms? Like RR? I'm running their custom Oreo in my Note 4and love it.
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] skullkid383:
Busy box doesn't cause that if u reflashed stock recently u are in encrypted again I also have busy box and never had that issue
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] bobbyp1086:
Oh you're right, hmm ran thru the steps, I'll make a backup and reflash thanks. That's probably reason for all the weird things I've noticed lol.
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] skullkid383:
If u got any more ?'s let me know
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] bobbyp1086:
Sure, heres one lol. I ran getprop to see a couple things that maybe and to change about the phone, I still have yet to reflash, well I'm not encrypted....What do you make of that
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] skullkid383:
idk what to tell u cause twrp stays on mine plus everyone elses u are only user having this issue I know of so idk what u installed or didn't install but something is wrong on ur end ie. User error
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] bobbyp1086:
Oh my friend I think you misunderstood, twrp has persisted. It's just busy box. Something about sbin gets erased every reboot, no issue I got a auto task app that installs it every boot.
[Moto E5 Guides, News, & Discussion] li0nh3art3d:
you need to install it to your bin or xbin, otherwise you'll have to install it with every reboot. sbin is a temporary folder to install it to

New Security update

..

1.boot twrp and backup boot.img

2.make patched boot.img with magisk all perserve boxes unchecked while making it with magisk manager

3.flash twrp

4.flash patched boot.img and decryption zip from third link in post

5.format button in wipe section

6.flash magisk

7.reboot

ok so i did all of this in the latter part of January and it worked great.(after I read and re-read the guide a few times) Thanks for that BTW!! Then I tried out some of the ROMs for this device. None of which really performed to Daily Driver standards. Anyhow I ended up starting back from scratch with stock ROM/recovery/encrypted. I had just installed this newest security patch (150-2) and now the steps don't seem to work any more. Is it the sec ptch or my general dumbassery at fault here.? AND SOMEONE PLZ GET US SOME BETTER ROMS!! TYVM in advnc.
