ok just got it, i was in fastbootd mode, not fastboot. Now this is working :censored:

sry ^^
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Beetle84:
Great! I just realised myself and edited my comment.

So Fastbootd is for flashing custom ROMs and

Fastboot is for flashing the stock firmware and unlocking bootloader etc...
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] etienne_9000:
First i succeded to flash boot.img while in Fastboot mode. The other img couldnt flash, and then i saw that in the thread somebody did the same mistake.

So i switched to Fastbootd. But now, when i try to flash boot.img, i get this error : "FAILED (remote: No such file or directory)". All the .img files are in the C:\adb directory, and my powershell window is located in the same directory.

Any idea ?
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Beetle84:

[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Beetle84:
PowerShell commands need to be started with ./ if I remember correctly

So it would be ./fastboot flash boot boot.img and so on.

Use the CMD.exe if you want to type commands without the ./
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] etienne_9000:
Just tried and got the same error. Also tried on cmd, same.

Nice work @Beetle84

Can I install this ROM on my XZP? :p
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Beetle84:
You could try sir!! Results may vary though ;) :ROFLMAO:
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Generic123.:
I would just flash TWRP in fastbootd and flash GAPPS through TWRP. I would recommend you use the pico GAPPS; when I flashed this ROM, every other GAPPS variant was too big and wouldn't flash other than the pico variant.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Beetle84:
RR updated.

Version bump to 8.6.5

Added OPScreenRecorder.apk as system app.

Removed built-in Screen Recorder QS Tile. (only the working one appears now)

Removed Recorder app as it links to in-built broken screen recorder.

Added HavocOS audio recorder app.

Added update steps to post #2.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] etienne_9000:
This might look dumb but i just want to be sure. If i update by flashing as advised "boot.img", "product.img", "system.img", and "vbmeta.img", i wont lose any personal data ?
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] brucedroid031:
Tried to flash this yesterday. The boot/product/vbmeta all flashed through without a problem using the drag and drop technique using Windows adb fastboot cmd prompt. The system IMG however fails on the third sparse package. 1/3 Okay/ 2/3 Okay/ 3/3 failed. It comes back saying FAILED Remote: (operation not permitted) or something to that order. Did this happen to anyone else?

I attempted to flash in every order and (Fastboot -w) between every attempt. Still failing at the third system sparse.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Beetle84:
Updated to december security patch, Still 8.6.5 version number, the RR devs never bumped it.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] TiTiB:
I've always loved RR for my devices, but haven't had the opportunity to one for a few years, so have this question—

Does it have an option to replace the abomination that is "side-scrolling-recents" with...something? Slim Recents, vertical, or anything that shows what apps are open—not just 1 1/2 apps.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Beetle84:
Yeah RR has slim recents :LOL:
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] TiTiB:
Thank you. This convinced me to go with RR. Now, on to unlocking the bootloader.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] TiTiB:
Thank you @Beetle84 and all those who worked to bring us this great ROM!

It's been about three years since I used RR (and that was on a wifi-only tablet), so forgot what it's like to have a device that is Google-free, and oh so customizable. I've already spent about an hour customizing, and still have a lot more to explore—a wonderful thing. 😛

Thanks again
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] TiTiB:
One thing I forgot to consider before install RR was if the FM radio would still work—it doesn't, and searching the forums I'm guessing it's something that's not implemented in custom ROMs. Not a huge deal as I listen to one local station, and only occasionally; but it would be nice to have.

Can anyone confirm?
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] spicyG88:
I have done everything that I have seen here. I originally attempted to flash the files on the bootloader. I finally got into fastbootd by using "adb reboot fastboot". I installed the files correctly then attempted to restart the phone and it took me right back into the bootloader. Any advice?
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] spicyG88:
I am getting the same error and I don't know why.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Gust_2309:

Could you elaborate on how you installed microg and enabled signature spoofing?

I installed the Magisk Module but I can't enable signature spoofing in the self-check. Keep getting the annoying pop up that google services are not installed.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Beetle84:
Its in the resurrection settings somewhere, the signature spoofing I mean

So apparently there is no product_a partition. There are "_a" partitions for all the other images I was flashing, so im assuming that there was a product_a. Im not sure if in all my tries it got wiped? Im guessing its supposed to be there.

Is there a way to create the product_a partition if its supposed to be there and then flash the product.img on it?

[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] IceWing_mk1:
Ok, so, I've solved SOME of the problems I've run into as I tried to reimage...

Now I've got a Moto G Power (2020) where I believe I have successfully loaded the new images (Resurrection Remix), and yet, when I get to the end of the instructions and try to reboot, I just keep ending up at the bootloader (Fastboot Flash Mode, NOT FastBootD, just the normal one with the green droid opened up for repairs)

I've tried going into the following options:

Start - comes right back to the same screen

Restart Bootloader - Same Screen

Recovery mode, and it says 'No Command'

Power Off - goes down, when I power it up, same screen

Bootloader Logs - says "AP Fastboot Flash Mode (Secure) Fastboot Reason: Reboot mode said to fastboot"

I've also tried this with and without a USB cable attached.

How do I smack this thing and get it out of the endless loop it's stuck in? And WHAT did I do to cause this loop?

When I built the first version, you had to use stock recovery because twrp didn't have fastboot d support like it does now.

[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] go vegan:
I'm running RR 8.6.9 here, and I appreciate all the work that went into that.

One thing that causes me great concern, is with ADB enabled in the Developer Options, the phone accepts adb connections (via USB) from any computer, without verification or checking credentials (ie adb host key).

THIS IS A SECURITY HOLE - ESPECIALLY if com.android.shell (aka Shell) has super-user rights (eg, via Magisk).

How can I make sure that only authorised computers can connect via ADB?

(Picture, below, was found online - But that's basically the verification step that I want to see, before allowing ANY computer to access the phone via ADB)
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] go vegan:
Another problem I'm having here - Trying to get the SIM card working for mobile data, and seeing "Access Point Name settings are not available for this user".

Short version: I can't get the SIM card working for data or SMS.

This seems to be a weird Android problem affecting different phones going back to at least 2015, without any consistent fix.

I tried one other good/working SIM, and a handful of older SIMs, and they all had the same problem.

Between this and not checking the ADB key, I'm looking for other ROMs now. Otherwise, I was enjoying how this was up and running well with micro-G.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] go vegan:
Replying to self - I just did a clean install on another unit (a 2nd Moto G Power) and this is not a problem. Might be a hardware issue? Might be an installation issue?
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] go vegan:
On the phone that has problems with the SIM card: I did a fresh reinstall or RR, and the problem persists. I did a fresh install of Arrow, and the problem persists.

Most likely a factory defect, but it seems like this "phone" is really a small "tablet" with no warranty after unlocking the bootloader :/

Anyway, Arrow is properly checking ADB keys, so I'll be checking that out. As it is, that's a BIG flaw in this build of RR, and it's pushing me away.

So what exactly is the problem? You have to add your mobile providers APN's there, one for data and one for mms usually. They should be provided somewhere on your telecoms website, or call em up, its pretty simple.

Question: Are you guys able to format external sd cards as internal storage? I'm not able to get this option in storage settings the way you usually would. All I am able to do is press format as portable storage, no option for internal.

Answer: I was able to get the option working by using a adb su shell command "sm set-force-adoptable true". Seems its just disabled by default.
