With unlocked bootloader, and with TWRP and magisk root installed, you currently can't install any of the motorola OTA:s.

Below have been tested on XT1965-3 while on RETEU, PPWS29.98-66 (security updates installed up until 1 january 2019), with TWRP 3.3.0 installed and rooted, to update to latest stock rom PPWS29.98-66-2 (security updates installed up until 1 april 2019), without wiping internal storage and /data (i.e. all files, apps and settings untouched).

I take no responsibility what so ever for using this guide. Below worked for me. Be prepared to lose all your files, hard brick your phone etc.

Get latest official stock firmware, I got it from https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=79653779&postcount=6 , unzip it

Connect your phone to your computer with usb-cable. Put your phone in flash mode (power button+volume down), open your terminal application (below tested on macOS and linux), get root

sudo -s

navigate in terminal to folder where you unzipped the full stock rom

check the below commands visavi the files from your downloaded stock rom (below works for version mentioned above - future updates may contain more or fewer for example sparse files).

fastboot getvar max-sparse-size

Let your phone reboot and pray

After a hopefully successfull boot with everything still intact, then adb fastboot TWRP and from TWRP reinstall your root.

in flash mode once again

with XT1965-3_LAKE_RETEU_9.0_PPW29.98-111_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml at least for me dirty flash failed, rom didn't boot

did a backup of /data/ to external storage from TWRP with internal storage decrypted (had to boot TWRP from fastboot a couple of times before the decrypt password prompt were shown on boot of TWRP)

did also a backup of internal storage over MTP with TWRP to computer.

then flashed again with below commands, WHICH WILL ERASE INTERNAL STORAGE

fastboot getvar max-sparse-size

fastboot oem fb_mode_set

fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

Thereafter successfull boot, reboot to flash mode, boot TWRP again, restore internal storage over MTP from TWRP, restore of data from backup to external storage which were made above

all apps and settings back, and on latest moto firmware.
[Moto G7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Lupask:
any chance of capturing the delta OTA's to make them twrp-flashable?
[Moto G7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] wedgehog:
Would probably be doable as in almost all other devices in general and older motorola devices in particular have had that. I for one do not have the knowledge of how to do that (and not the time available even if I had that knowledge =) )
[Moto G7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] wedgehog:
I can confirm that at least for me, a dirty flash like the one described in post 1 in this thread worked again with the latest OTA/firmware for RETEU - XT1965-3_LAKE_RETEU_9.0_PPWS29.98-111-3_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC, when written over the second latest (XT1965-3_LAKE_RETEU_9.0_PPW29.98-111_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC)

I did however have trouble booting the latest twrp twrp-3.3.1-0-v5.1-lake-jlb from fastboot, phone rebooted after it was sent over adb boot instead of booting twrp it went straight back to fastboot. Tried many times with rebooting to phone home screen in between. But adb fastbooting the older twrp-3.3.0-lake worked straight away, and thereafter installing twrp-3.3.1-0-v5.1-lake-jlb with it's zip worked straight away.

[Moto G7 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] WoKoschekk:
It would be no problem to catch them and make them TWRP flashable. But it's strongly not recommended to do that!! Do an OTA-update only if your device is fully on stock! Otherwise the OTA-update will override incorrect blocks of your partitions and this could crash your entire system irreversible.

Bug fixes and performance improvements

With this release, we really want to apologise to our users for the delay in the update.

With our core developers being tied up to their personal life & space we were not able to match our consistency.

But this is life and it was going to happen someday or the other.

This release has a lot of improvements internally and we have focused on providing stability to our users.

However, the Sysserv support for Substratum theme engine might have few minor issues because it is still not stable (as per substartum devs),

it is because of the high demand of users that we have merged it.

We have been consistent for about two years straight and it is all because of the love & support we get from our users.

After this release, we are looking forward to refactor our release pattern a bit so that we are not bound by any time constraints as such.

Thanks again for the support you have been giving us, we are looking forward to our next releases.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccampolo:
Hello!

Just received my Umidigi A3 - MT6739.

Firmware is Android 9, latest release: N Android 9.0 V1.3_20190610 ROM

I would like to flash a custom recovery (TWRP) and flash a custom ROM - like Lineage OS or Stock Android.

This is not the first time I root and flash an android device, however I am having difficulties finding the right files.

I tried to install custom TWRP recovery both through ADB tool and with SP flash tool.

I initially unlocked the OEM and bootloader using ADB tools, then I tried to flash a TWRP recovery image I found online but it turned out to be for Android 8.1 and not Android 9.

The phone switches on and boots normally - however I still don't have a custom recovery nor the possibility to install a custom ROM.

Here's a list of threads I already looked at and tested:

community.umidigi.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=2962&highlight=twrp

getdroidtips.com/twrp-recovery-umidigi-a3/

unofficialtwrp.com/twrp-recovery-root-umidigi-a3/#Download_Files

{Mod edit: Link to paid services website removed. Oswald Boelcke, Senior Moderator}

Did anyone who has the same phone manage to do such?

Thanks!

[Moto G6 Play Questions & Answers] madbat99:
Might be to much for this phone. If the CPU or GPU can't handle it, then no, there's nothing you can do.

You didn't include a link to the game, and it doesn't show in the playstore for my g6 play. So it might not be compatible.

How about a link to investigate? Are you trying to restore data from a previous phone for the game?

You have provided such little info, I doubt anyone will help.

Did you try contacting the developer of the game??? Seems like the logical first step.

I have an HD 8 2018. Fire OS 6.3.0.0. Rooted with Magisk and TWRP. I've install all the pieces for Google Play. Play is working. Gmail is working. Calendar is working.

But Google Contacts refuses to sync. If I clear the data it will ask me to create an account. If I try to use my Google account it says "account is already on device." But I don't seem to be able to select the account I'm already logged into.

Did I perhaps disable some package I shouldn't have? I went back in and "pm enable" on every package with "contacts" in the name.

Any ideas?

I have not used it, but it appears there are several amazon apps that relate to contacts that might interfere with it.

Facebook Sync Adapter	pm disable com.amazon.dp.fbcontacts	You can disable this if you want to use Google Contacts

Contacts	pm disable com.android.contacts

This one might need to be uninstalled and install google contacts from the play store.

Hello,

I followed the steps to install TWRP correctly, and then flashed ALI_RETAIL_9.0_PPSS29.55-24-2_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC that i got from https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/ali/official/RETAIL/ and the process worked correctly.

Now my phone boots fine, but the touchscreen does not work at all, neither in TWRP nor when booted into the firmware. Is there any hope?

Model is ali XT1925-6

If I burnt out a part, what parts are they and how difficult will it be to replace them?

[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] madbat99:
II firmware that you flashed you only linked to the whole thread, you didn't show the exact firmware that you tried to flash.

Why not just try the one for your firmware and your carrier from mirrors.lolinet.com

I installed androidfilehost.com/?fid=818222786056029922 from the second thread.

I tried reflashing the first rom, but the touchscreen does not work there either. I've just downloaded and installed the correct rom, still no dice

Is it possible that the second rom burnt my digitizer?

Edit: the fingerprint sensor doesn't respond on the setup screen either, although I'm not sure if thats because it isn't working or it doesnt do anything on the setup screen
