Have you (or anyone else reading this) purchased a phone before the bootloader unlock was released? Basically I am in a situation where I have to decide if I want this phone within a short timeframe, if it would get a bootloader unlock in the next few months I would be fine with it but if its going to take more like a year I would go for a different phone.

I have the unlocked Z4, and tried the Motorola bootloader unlock page. Successfully got a code, but haven't unlocked yet.

Rooting

I also have the unlocked Z4 I went to the Motorola website got the unlock code. I am trying to root it and with all the bad thing i read about Kingo Root I did not want to use it. SuperSU and Magisk only show the installation with TWRP but when i try to download it does not have for the Moto Z4. Any ideas how to root? This is about the only site i found https://myphoneupdate.com/root-motorola-moto-z4/
[Moto Z4 Questions & Answers] sd_shadow:
Best to wait till someone builds a twrp for moto z, unlikely kingo would work anyways
[Moto Z4 Questions & Answers] wraith1932:
Sorry, no idea. Since there seem to be very few sites that can be trusted, I usually wait for something to pop up here on XDA.

Sunshine (at theroot.ninja) worked great on my first-gen Moto X, but then I sorta lived with the full lockdown on the Z Force Droid until the Z4 came out. I've been hoping that Sunshine would get support for the Z4, but dunno if that's even possible.

I've seen various reports on wether Kingo (King?) Root works in general. Tried it on the ZFD without any luck, but also didn't notice any sudden weirdness either, so maybe it's safe?

You must First: unlock bootloader, get rom, extract boot.img patch with Magisk and then flash new patched boot.img.. This is my first Moto phone... Should have gone with the pixel.. I believe you are supposed to use fastboot for flashing. I have Verizon version and owe $499 for this pos, so I unfortunately won't be testing shiite. I have not compiled TWRP before but I will contribute what I can.. any good ideas for pi 4 1gb..

FRP Locked Z4 from eBay

I am looking at some of Z4s from eBay.

BB version wouldn't work, since I already have a line on Verizon, and I don't think they'd let me port it ?

1) Is -3 retail and -4 Verizon ?

2) -3 can be bootloader unlocked and -4 can't be bootloader unlocked ?

3) Does putting on custom rom, such as LineageOS, remove FRP lock ?

4) There is a guy on YouTube, Mohammad Ali, who has a 20min video on how to remove FRP lock from Z4.

It is basically some way to pop up a browser in unexpected menu areas and download several APKs.

Any chance that will work ?

Thanks!
[Moto Z4 Questions & Answers] sd_shadow:
Yes, but XT1980-3 is also Amazon

https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/foles/official/

XT1980-4 definitely cannot, but XT1980-3 likely cannot if it's on Amazon software channel.

Yes, but you have to get the bootloader unlocked first.

You need to enable OEM Unlock in Dev options, to unlock the bootloader, which requires getting past FRP.

This? https://youtu.be/zSPiLXdZicA

I've used this to remove FRP from several moto devices

Best Buy?

which Model and software channel?
[Moto Z4 Questions & Answers] BigYank:
Thanks for all the replies. So basically, if you don't spend $400 to $500 you are living with bloatware.

That's the problem w eBay locked phones, there is not a lot of info (like sw channel). You just get "here is imei" and "screen works". And it's still over $120 for something wo glass cracks.

I think what I'll do is get $120 version for $5 per moth from Verizon, then move my # to Google voice . And cancel the old line. Then use gv app over the Z4 new line. I know it's a pain sometimes, but I can get a new phone every 2y for $5 to $10 per month.
[Moto Z4 Questions & Answers] kewlzter:
There are some good deals on ebay. Just look for correct models, or ask for the model number.

For those with only imei, if you look it up on imei checker it will give you the model number.

Stock recovery missing?

I unlocked my bootloader, updated to QPF130.30-15-7 using LMSA, then rooted using Magisk boot image patching.

Now I've been trying to update to QPF130.30-15-11, which was offered on my phone the other day. LMSA says my device is unsupported (both flash and upgrade modes). When I try to do a factory rest from from the settings menu, the phone reboots with no change (no data not erased). Going to the fastboot menu and selecting recovery just causes the phone to immediately reboot (no recovery menu is shown).

I'm confused. Is it possible that my recovery is missing/corrupted? Is the recovery image included in the firmware downloaded from LMSA? I still have that, but nothing in it has "recovery" in the name. Is the stock recovery available anywhere else for me to flash?
[Moto Z4 Questions & Answers] sd_shadow:
There is no recovery partition with new a/b system

Recovery is part of boot.img now, and magisk modifies the boot.

You can wipe data with

fastboot erase userdata

Or flash the stock boot.img

fastboot flash boot boot.img
[Moto Z4 Questions & Answers] carnivalrejectq:
I just got the device which is the unlocked model but it is stuck on the December security patch. No Android 10, not even February patch. Both the phone and LMSA says it's up to date. I've tried everything, factory reset, took our Sim card. Ugh.
[Moto Z4 Questions & Answers] sd_shadow:
Which software channel?
[Moto Z4 Questions & Answers] carnivalrejectq:
US Retail. I've tried sideloading the zip someone gave me a link to on Reddit, but it keeps telling me it can't read the zip in ADB. Also tried to install it directly from recovery and then it tells me it can't mount the SD card.

Can't do nothing with LMSA at this point. It keeps asking me to login, I do, it says I've logged in successfully and then just sits there on the main screen doing nothing as if I didn't just logged in. I've uninstalled it from Windows , deleted the connected Android app and the issue persists. I'm about to just send this damn phone back.
[Moto Z4 Questions & Answers] carnivalrejectq:
So I finally got it to work again and even though it kept telling me I was up to date I tried the fastboot rescue and noticed the file it was downloading matched the one from the link I gave you earlier meaning it was 10, just LMSA wasn't telling me it was 10. However, I'm still on January security patch. This is normal? Or am I supposed to be on March like Verizon?
[Moto Z4 Questions & Answers] pan815kev:
I am stuck @ January 2020 as well & I am on Best Buy Z4 USA Retail.
[Moto Z4 Questions & Answers] carnivalrejectq:
Crazily I actually got a security patch for March today out of the blue. Guess I'm fully up to date now (as we can be with Motorola anyway lol) No idea why my phone was stuck at first. If it wasn't got LMSA I wouldn't be on 10, ever lol. Phone was just apparently going to stay permanently on Pie with December security patch.
[Moto Z4 Questions & Answers] pan815kev:
I got the update today as well. It was offered to me yesterday but I had 2 wait until I could get a WI-FI connection 2 download it.
[Moto Z4 Questions & Answers] cletusvd:
I just got the May 1st security update for my 1980-3 Amazon Z4. Took me from QPF30.130_15_11 to QPFS30.130-15-11-3. I was rooted before and would like it back. So that means to flash back to QPF30.130_15_11 then right? Here's my problem. Ever since I had root I haven't been able to use 'Apply update from ADB' in recovery. '[libfs_mgr]Failed to mount /sdcard: Invalid argument' is the message I get. Looked for a solution to this problem and went down a rabbit hole that just gave me a headache and no fix. On top of that 'Apply update from ADB' returns the following message when I attempt to sideload: 'E:footer is wrong' 'E:Signature verification failed' 'E:error: 21'. Wasn't able to find a solution to this either. This leaves me to do some fastboot flashing yeah? I am relatively new to all this so forgive my ignorance. If this is the case, then I could really use an order of commands to issue. I assume the order in which you flash the partitions and with what is important so am not going to try and wing it. I have noticed quite a few for other phones on this site that have such guides. Or if I am just totally off base and going in the wrong direction then please course correct me. Thank you for your time.

Using stock recovery?

I want to flash global rom on my moto z4 Verizon bootloader locked possible?

If possible then please share procedure please?
[Moto Z4 Questions & Answers] midgica:
hi all, really counting on the noob-friendly aspect here. a friend pointed me to this website, but i don't know what a bootloader is, what it means to flash firmware, etc.

a friend gifted me an unlocked moto z4 that seems to have once been a verizon phone. i am on my family's t-mobile plan. about 60% of the time when i try to make a phone call, the phone idles for 20-60 seconds and then ends the call. about 20% of the time, it tells me there's no mobile network available. and about 20% of the time, the call actually goes through just fine. (i've also been told there are problems with incoming calls; callers sometimes get some kind of error saying i'm out of network or something like that.)

at the t-mobile store, the guy told me that my phone isn't fully compatible with t-mobile's network - something like it doesn't support the 600mHz band (71? maybe?) that's most prevalent around here. he said all i can do is switch to verizon or get a new phone. the friend who directed me here thinks that the problem is fixable.

i did already mess with the APN settings as per this link (https://apn.gishan.net/en/apn/t-mobile/motorola-moto-z4) but none of them fixed the problem. i haven't tried a factory reset just because i have no indication that that's likely to help. any noob-friendly ideas for what else i should try?

Unfortunately, if you can't get pc to phone recognition, your kinda stuck. Have you tried revoking USB debugging to your pc then add it again? Tried uninstalling/installing your drivers? Tried multiple USB 2.0 cables and usb ports and/or another pc? If you can get into fastboot and install twrp you could flash the OTA that way as well. Best of luck to you.
