Hey let's compare build numbers and kernel info, Android version etc. Maybe ours differ from others on here. Since I had a similar experience as you in that flashing a ROM bricked my phone, maybe we'll find a commonality that others here don't have...

I could not get blankflash to work for me. The phone showed in device manager the way the instructions said it should with the port number. I downloaded stock rom unzipped it to my address folder and unzipped the blankflash package to the same folder. I would run the .bat file but it errored out everytime. Luckily I was able to bring the phone back and Fry's just accepted it and gave me another one .

I don't want to end up with another bricked phone. Out of curiousity was yours freezing up after rooting, but before the rom installation.?

[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] erukami:
Did you try following the guide in the ROM thread (https://xdaforums.com/moto-x4/development/rom-lineage-os-15-1-t3802265)?

I bricked my device on the first attempt while following the LOS site install instructions, but after getting it back to stock I followed the ROM thread instructions instead (with a minor adjustment).

First things first, if you haven't gotten back to working bootable image on your device, boot to the bootloader and follow this thread's instructions. I am not 100% sure this is necessary, but I don't have another device to test with atm. One thing to note, make sure to get your variant's stock 8/8.1 Firmware. I have an XT1900-1 variant while that thread features links for the XT1900-6 variant.

Next follow these instructions:

Following those instructions should get you a working LOS install. Make sure to get the correct Copy Partitions Zip for your variant.

All that said, I diverged a bit at the start and end:

Before starting TWRP, I ran the Copy Partitions Zip flash_all.bat/sh at the bootloader.

Before letting the system start, I ran the flash_all.bat/sh at the bootloader again.

For the first change, I couldn't get TWRP to run the ZIP, so I extracted it and realized the bat/sh scripts were fastboot flashing the contents of the ZIP. The second deviation is because my system wouldn't make it past the boot logo screen and when I loaded TWRP, it was giving errors about firmware issues in the terminal.

After performing all that, your LOS should boot and be configurable. Your experience may be different to the difference in variant.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Afongo:
Ty for the pointer to the ROM thread, I am reading through that.

How do the different variants of the X4, i.e. XT1900-1 through XT1900-7 (that is the one I do own), differ ? And connected to that question - can I flash a stock image from a different variant (maybe a XT1900-1) than my XT1900-7 to my XT1900-7 without causing further problems ?

Also what is the purpose of Copy Partitions Zip ? What does it do ? I downloaded the zip file and I understand that I shall install it via adb sideload or from the sd card when I have booted the twrp recovery from fastboot. Do I need to modify anything in copy partitions zip specifically to match my XT1900-7 ? Or does Copy Partitions Zip work the same on all variants of the moto X4 ?

[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] erukami:
I'll be honest, a more experienced member would have to answer that because I don't really know how they differ. You can try to push a XT1900-1 to -7, but I wouldn't recommend that. I have two versions of this device, an A1 and Retail. The A1 version is generally Fi related and I accidentally loaded the firmware for the Fi version on my Retail and now it is giving me issues with my carrier (I think this is the cause, but am not 100% sure).

From what is said by TadMSTR in the thread, the Copy Partitions Zip is for duplicating partitions between the two OS slots:

You won't be sideloading that zip. As I stated before, it's a bunch of fastboot commands in the a bat/sh file with support files included. You will be running while at the bootloader according to Skeeterdrums in the thread:

You don't need to modify the zip, it should work on your variant according to posts in the thread.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] TadMSTR:
[MENTION=7035898]erukami[/MENTION] I have the Android One variant with the Fi firmware. Only had data when using my Verizon work sim. Flashing the US Retail firmware loaded the correct radios and I was able to get full service on Verizon. Custom roms typically do not include the radio files. Restore the US Retail firmware and you should be fine. Can flash any custom rom after that.

I may have misspoke a bit about the copy partitions firmware. It doesn't setup the partitions as they are already there. It merely copies what is on A to B and vice versa, depending on which slot you are currently on. Though I think when coming completely from stock the B slot is "empty" as Moto didn't bother with it. Not sure if you need to bother flashing the zip when restoring to stock but I did anyway. Fastboot was only flashing to slot A. Maybe that can be tweaked with the flash-all.bat file.

[MENTION=5211676]Afongo[/MENTION] You should restore the stock firmware for your variant and start over. Making sure to flash copy partitions zip in TWRP before flashing LOS. When I restored stock firmware I made sure slot A was the active slot. After the restore let the phone boot up into stock. Reboot to the bootloader then boot TWRP. Flash copy partitions zip. Flash Lineage and then flash TWRP zip. Reboot to recovery. Flash gapps and Magisk (if you want root). Factory reset or wipe data/cache as needed before booting into Lineage the first time.

You need to reboot back into recovery after flashing a ROM due to the A/B slot logic. Flashing a ROM automatically changes the active slot so in order to flash anything after the ROM, with the exception of TWRP, you need to reboot to recovery to continue. Due note that LOS overwrites TWRP recovery on a fresh install and any updates. You'll need to boot TWRP from the bootloader if you need to get back in TWRP or you can just use LOS recovery.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Afongo:
Ty all for the provided info. I understand more now than before.

I am still looking for a firmware for a XT1900-7, does anybody know the filename so that I can google for it ?

For example I downloaded a PAYTON_OPWS28.46-21-16_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip, but how do I know for which variant of the Moto X4 that file is ? What is the naming scheme ?

Ty

[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] ptn107:
You have the correct and most recent Android 8.1 firmware for you device (PAYTON_OPWS28.46-21-16_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip). This works for all regions. The firmware does not determine the region. The xt1900-7 is 'reteu'.

[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] uskrewed:
Does anyone have this? I seem to have soft bricked my phone. It gets stuck on android one screen.

I tried flashing recovery with fastboot but got an error saying the partition didn;t exist. I instead booted into recovery and sideloaded the install.zip for TWRP and superSU. Recovery works fine, but even after wiping data/cache it still gets stuck when booting into system at the android one screen. I'm hoping if I flash the stock image I'll get it working again.

Edit: I see there are roms for the normal (none A1 version) but am worried about using those.

I tried to install the Play Store on my Honor 10 Lite (HRY-AL00) with GMSInstaller, but without success, I suspect that the new Emui (9.0.1) is not compatible with GMSInstaller 1.2.0.

This is really exciting stuff!!! unfortunately i won't be able to try this out until 1 month later as my N560 is critical to my daily routine until then (which is also when i'll be finally giving WM6 a go).

Been waiting for this for a long time... any more info? supported capacity? restrictions? compatibility?

GreateVK,

Will this work on an N560 with the original WM5 ROM, please?

Or does it have to be WM6 or WM6.1?

:D It works great on my N560 with newplow's WM6_016_net3_5 rom so far
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] fingerstoo:
Thank you master2048 for answering my second question.

But has anyone got it working on an N560 with the original ROM?

Does it install to main (user re-writable) memory or does it change a portion of the ROM image? If the former, then it might be possible to try it on WM5 devices and then revert by uninstalling the patch if it does not work...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] honzamo:

I use it on my N560 with original WM 5 ROM, and i use 8GB SDHC, so it works very well. Wifi is OK.

Thanks you for your reply.

And I can confirm that it works on my N560 with original WM5 ROM too.

I bought a 16Gb SDHC and WiFi works too. And ordinary SDs still work fine.

Excellent..... this has given my N560 a new lease of life.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] -SKYLINE-:
can anyone comment on the speed of using SDHC? is it really able to sustain the Class speeds? cuz currently my Transcend 4GB 150x non-SDHC is really slow, but I know it's partly the card's problem.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] fingerstoo:
I have a Integral Class 4 16Gb SDHC. It is hard to say if it is any quicker than the Transcend (which I was using before applying the SDHC patch). I agree the Transcend was not zippy. But the Class 4 SDHC seems very fast. It is obviously imited by the Loox addressing/reading speed and therefore may not be able to take fulladavantage of the potential higher transfer speeds.

However, the few tests I have been able to run e.g. copying 8Gb of stuff on from a PC to the SDHC card in the free card reader that came with mine, was very quick. And there were thousands of files... large 300Mb plus and lots of small ones circa 1Mb. Also video playback on TCPMP was just the same as with SD cards - this would be a good test of sustained transfer rate....

So the performance in my judgement is the same and possibly better.

Problem aftet Hard reset

Aftter Hard Reset, the SDHC driver is gone. My N560 did not recognized the 8GB SDHC card any more. I had to reload the SDHC driver from the PC and only then I could activate my SPB Backup file.

Is there a way to add this driver in such a way that it will survive hard resets? Otherwise it will be a mess if someone needs to restore while being away from his PC

Please advice
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] igalan:
I belive that there's an N560 ROM that has it built it. But you could carry a small capacity SD with a full backup, once you have it up and running you could put your SDHC again.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] islandxp:
It may sound a bit trivial, but I'm using an old low capacity SD card (64MB !) for just having the driver stored there.

After a hard reset I would first use this SD card to install the driver, then using my (standard) HCSD.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] zolom:
SDHC driver

Yes, that's what I'm doing too (low capacity SD with important system files).

But anyhow, is there a method to "burn" a driver into the existitng WM 6 ROM of N560?

Thanks
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] zolom:
Bettet solution

I managed to store the SDHC driver file (some 32KB) on my mobile phone memory (internal od memory card). Then by connecting via Bluetooth's file transfer profile, I can transfer the driver to my Hard Reseted N560 and continue from there. No need to carry an additional SD card (which can get lost easily), no need to access a PC and my phone is always with me.

Hi from Athens! I want to upgrade my n560 with the latest wm6.1. I find in .ru sites the original firmaware for n560, is realy the original? can i trust this in case i must return in original wm5? the file is "n560_original_rom".. Eyxaristo = Thanks
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] fingerstoo:
Your suspicions may be right. I tried to return to what was quoted as "original" and it looked OK but it refused to sync properly without Outlook via AcitiveSync. It kept connecting as a Guest, and no amount of re-installing AS and deleting old partneships would work. This seemed a step backwards to me. So I persisted with the 018 WM6.1 release and after 3 days of trials and re-installing loads of my software and the SDHC patch and Broadcom thingy, I am content this is a good release and worthwhile, but its as ever, YOUR CHOICE.

I got suspicious that the battery seemed to be going down faster and that the procesor might be running at Turbo rather than Auto speed. But extensive tests with acbPowerMeter shows that the settings are having an effect. I just think that when you have made such a risky unsupported upgrade you become more nervous at any signs of worse performance.

But so far, I am gald I left WM5 behind. The incorporation of Quick GPS and LooxLight in the ROM image is great and helpful.

I mentioned in another thead that TCPM seemed to stop playing wma and wmv files but because it is an old program it was still looking for the codec dlls in the Windows folder. And good old Microsoft has renamed them. Copying the old dlls for wma and wmv made my favourite media player work on WM6.1. It is slao good that Mobile Office 6.1 coping with Office 2007 file formats (docx etc) is included in NewPlow's ROM image too, saving you memory. There seems to be a bit more room for programs in main memory, and this looks for me to be the biggest bonus.

Work with N500?

This is great news (the SDHC driver). Just installed it on my N560 - just need to get hold of an SDHC card! :-)

Does anyone know if this would also work on an N500? Obviously, the WiFi aspect doesn't matter, but it would be handy to have SDHC capability on my wife's PDA...

Same hardware, so I suspect it *should* be OK, but just wondered if anyone out there knew for sure!

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] fingerstoo:
I suspect it will work as I was surprised to discover it worked on a Dell Axim 51 too. It seems to redirect the calls to the SD card handling in the operating system. It is worth trying because it installs as a program, therefore you can remove it if it doesn't work.

This sounds great, have to check that out.

But concerning 16Gig SDHC Cards: What make did you guys buy? Remember back when there were 4Gig SDs out, I had alot of people post you should use either transcend or anothermake (I forget)... is it the same with the 16GB SDHC? Do you recommend some makes?

Haven't even started browsing for vendors yet (Switzerland),let me know what Card you guys use.

Thanks!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bruisah:
Well, I can add to the confirmations:

Running WM6.0 on N560. I installed this driver and bought an 8GB SDHC Class 4 card (from Expansys for ~£23 minus a £10 discount voucher!).

It is all working fine - WiFi is unaffected, and the card currently has ~6GB of data (TomTom maps for Europe and US&Canada, plus a few movies!).

I've not performed any data transfer tests, other than one empirical test - the result is that the card appears to work faster than my 4GB Transcend SD card (pretty rare 150x card!), so I'm a happy chappy. Cheaper cards with greater capacity are, at last, available to my device!

Many thanks to the engineers that made this possible. Great work.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] fingerstoo:
I bought Integral 16Gb SDHC Class 4 and it works fine and is very fast indeed. It came with a free SDHC reader (like a USB memory stick, just plug the SDHC card in and XP recognises it as a disc drive, as usual). I got it here

http://www.lowpricememory.co.uk/16GB-SDHC-memory-card.html

It works brilliantly. I suspect that all the SDHC cards will probably work... the issue with 4Gb SDs was that because the SD spec was for 2Gb maximum, some manufacturers had worked out how to get devices (some!) to recognise twice the maximum with an addressing trick. Hence not all devices would see the extra capacity, and even those that would, did not "like" all manufacturer's cards. I bought both Transcend and another manufacturer's 4Gb SD cards and they all worked in a Loox N560. But I have a Konica Minolta camera which refuses to see the same 4Gb SDs. This N560 patch is excellent because it not only gives you access to SDHC but will also still operate those 4Gb SDs too.

Another question (sorry if it doesnt belong here)

What would you guys do:

I'm happy with my N560 and WM5... I'm going to install this SDcard patch.. should I also install WM6 while I'm at it? Really sorry for them newbish questions haven't followed whats out there AT ALL, so have no idea what WM6 even would bring as an advantage.

would you recomment to go to WM6, or just leave it be?
