[Moto G7 Play Questions & Answers] andyhoy:
Thanks for the effort, Exinu, but it seems to not fully recognize the command or is looking for another flag or operand. The "set_active b" command that you proposed just results in making a list like for a "help" or unspecified command. As you can see below, I tried other variations of the command after I tried searching out more details. I also tried "fastboot set_active=b" and it does the same thing with the listing. I'm assuming that it's not accepting this command. I did try the twrp-dirtyport image as well, but as you can see below, that created an error as well:

C:\adb>fastboot --set_active b

fastboot: unknown option -- set_active

C:\adb>fastboot --set-active=b

fastboot: unknown option -- set-active=b

C:\adb>fastboot set_active b

usage: fastboot [ <option> ] <command>

C:\adb>​

I did try the next step with the dirtyboot but that seem to have failed as well.

C:\adb>fastboot boot twrp-dirtyport-g7play.img

downloading 'boot.img'...

OKAY [ 0.570s]

On my phone on the "Bootloader logs" screen, it said (before I began)

Start Up Failed:​

Your device didn't stat up successfully.

Use the Software Repair Assistant on computer to repair your device.

AP Fastboot Flash Mode (Secure)

No bootable A/B slot

Failed to boot Linux, falling back to fastboot

Fastboot Reason: Fall-through from normal boot mode

USB Connected​

I then typed fastboot devices from my windows C:\ADB prompt and it showed me it was connected.

After running the stuff mentioned above, it said:

cmd: download:01348000

cmd: boot

Incomplete boot image for booting.

I disconnected and reconnect the USB and then I tried the fastloading of the dirtyport image again. The screen went blank and said the same stuff again with no bootable A/B slot, which leaves me to believe this is where my problem starts.

Any other ideas?
