[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Carl-Robert:
You need to install the official android 10 rom to your phone using the moto flash tool linked in the first post. After that you can install custom roms from fastbootd with the first page instructions.

Android 11 official rom has some changed encryption stuff which I think is responsible for the infinite boot on custom roms when flashed over it. That's why you need to downgrade to android 10 first.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] jdude520:
ok because I am on android 11 when it is back to stock flashed. I am using the lenovo tool and it is installing rpms31.q1.54-13-2_subsidy . So to clarify I need to roll back to android 10 to be able to flash any custom roms ? Or is there 11s that will work with a different method to flash them?
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] RaspberryPiBen:
I'm not the person with the problem, but thank you for the explanation. I installed my ROMs before Android 11 came out for this phone and I was planning to test the stock Android 11 ROM, so this information will be very useful.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] RaspberryPiBen:
I believe you have to roll back to Android 10. Custom Android 11 ROMs may work, but you can't install custom ROMs so that doesn't help.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] jdude520:
actually it is rescuing me to android 11 no matter what i do
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Carl-Robert:
Just download the rom manually and flash with the moto flash tool linked in the first post. You can find the stock rom here for sofiar: https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/sofiar/official/ [Need to pick your own version obviously].
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] jdude520:
So you are saying I can actually go backwards to Android OS 10 ? I was under the impression that it was not possible, since android 10, to revert to a prior stock rom? I am not saying i I am right but I know my samsung was very particular that way
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] jdude520:
Ya I am sure I am right now, just for future reference. I do not believe you can go back once you have been upgraded to Android 11.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Carl-Robert:
Except I did and I told you to do it on my first post in this issue... Just follow the instructions like you said you did in the first ranting post. I'm unwatching this thread for now, do with this information what you want.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] jdude520:
Golly thanks ...sry for inconvenience

Hi. I'm on stock 10 locked BL XT-2041-1. Will it work for me? I know how to unlock BL, but I was wondering if does it matter if I try this rom under 10 or after taking ota 11.

By the way, I need to know if I unlock BL, will I be able to try freely any custom rom, and go back to stock 10/11 via twrp/lsma ? Thanks.

EDIT: My latest flashing experience was some years ago with a moto E 1st gen. I managed to unlock BL, install stocks roms (4.4.2 and 5.1) with fastboot. and tried Lineage with twrp. Are theese steps similar to the XT-2041-1 ?
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Beetle84:
you have to be on android 10 mate, twrp isnt compatible with 11 yet for us.

ArrowOS June update available from the download link on the first post.

June Security patch

Added Moto Camera 2

Adjusted the status bar alignment (centered with the hole punch cam now)
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] RaspberryPiBen:
Thanks! Is there a special way to update, or is it just the standard steps but without the format data part? Also, is it fine if Magisk is installed while updating?
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Beetle84:
If you are using twrp, just flash the updated rom, then select reboot to recovery if you have magisk installed, reflash magisk and reboot.

If you dont have magisk, just flash the rom and reboot.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] RaspberryPiBen:
Is it possible to transition a fastboot-installed ROM to TWRP or are they incompatible? Also, the TWRP linked in the main post says it deleted. Can the ROM now work with the TWRP linked here?
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Beetle84:
Going from one to the other should be fine. There is also fastboot d images, you could flash them, reboot to system, then re-patch the boot.img or whatever you did last time for root.

I re-added the twrp file too, didnt realise i had removed it. Its available from the same link.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] RaspberryPiBen:
I updated (and installed TWRP) and it's working great. Thank you.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Beetle84:
No problems 👍
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] mortadelax:
Ok, thanks. So, if I unlock BL being on 10, may I try whatever rom I want, including android 11 rom, and go back to 10 ? I'm not talking about ota, just twrp or lsma.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Beetle84:
Yep 👍
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] mortadelax:
Check this. Maybe you can roll back.

[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Beetle84:
You definitely can. Probably just as easy to use the Moto Flash Tool linked in the first post.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] mortadelax:
Ok. Good to know. I was warried about the dude. He can give it a try.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] mortadelax:
Plz I need to ask a final question. What happen if I take OTA 11. Will I be able to unlock BL, use fastboot to install 10 if I don't like 11? Or the safe way is to unlock BL under 10 then try whatever rom? I know there's a post by sd_shadow that confirm we can downgrade from 11 o 10 using LSMA. I feel it risky. Thanks

Is my Moto G Power XT2041-4 SOFIA (G8 Family?) device compatible with ROMs that say SOFIAR as the code name? (I believe SOFIA is USA & SOFIAR is Europe)
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] RaspberryPiBen:
I don't know about other ROMs, but my SOFIA device works with this SOFIAR ROM.

[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] RaspberryPiBen:
This ROM has been very stable for me for the last few months, but I recently discovered what seems to be a problem with the ROM. In the Bitwarden app, the option for biometric unlock is missing. SafetyNet passes and MagiskHide is enabled for Bitwarden. I've asked on r/Bitwarden about it (

https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitwarden/comments/pvn4gl
), but every reply said that it worked for them and it must be a problem with the ROM. I can't really include logs because there's no specific thing that happens, it's just the lack of an option. Could it be that a certain API is missing in the ROM?
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Beetle84:
Are you using the latest version? It was fixed as far as i can tell. I no longer have the phone so cant try it out right now
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Beetle84:
Ignore the above comment, wrong thread. Another dev is taking over ArrowOS, and the biometrics are fixed. I'll get the link and share here shortly.

Has anyone tried this, any opinions/comments?
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] sselick:
I had never seen this SourceForge repository so I was naturally excited to find it thanks! So I downloaded and installed the 10/12/2021 images and installed via fastboot. All seemed just greate but I noticed that I was on Verizon and only getting 3g data. I tried to go back to the 6/20/2021 fastboot images posted here and it wouldn't boot because apparently the 10/12/2021 OS changed the encryption on the data partition so it looks like once you install this you can't dirty flash backwards. If anyone knows why I was stuck in 3g and if there is a custom modem image I could flash to fix this in the future that would be great! SofiaR US Verizon model phone.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Leroy_Sparks:
Hmmm. I would have figured that installing an older version with fastbootd would be fine. I've been running the same 10/12 build on my unlocked (att) phone with no issues (I installed it to have a working FM radio).

I suppose a foolproof way would be to go back to oem a10 then install the desired ROM ?

If you're on telegram, you could ask there or try to message the developer (@sebitatata). It's sad that xda got screwed up so bad and developers don't want to use it for support, leaving telegram which is a cluster* in it's own right. Maybe it's a generic issue that Beetle might kindly offer input on?

Btw I've found the Migrate app to be pretty reliable on this device on a10/a11 (when switching ROMs).
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] sselick:
I used the Moto tool to go back to stock 10 and still saw only 3g, then went to stock 11 ... stll only 3g. Went back to stock 10 and then re-flashed Arrow gapps 6/20 and restored data (TWRP) from 1 week ago and magically I have LTE+ again.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] sselick:
I was able to get LTE consistently again by switching Preferred Network Type to LTE/GSM/UMTS so I am thinking of trying the 10/12 build again. I have had a lot of trouble getting GAPPS to fit ... getting out of disk space on NikGapps Core which is only about 90mb. Is there a way to expand the partition size in TWRP?
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Leroy_Sparks:
There is a resize function in TWRP. I've had to use it with another phone in the past - not sure about how it determines the re-size or if it will do what you want. I believe it's in the Wipee function, advanced wipe, tic System and hit Repair or Change File System, then Resize.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] sselick:
The System partition doesn't show up in the list of options to wipe. I added it under Mount and it still does not show up.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Beetle84:
Use flame gapps basic @sselick, nikgapps are always being a pain in the arse
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] sselick:
Wow - I had never heard of FlameGapps ... worked perfectly thanks! So just to recap - ArrowOS 10/12/2021 on a Verizon sofiar Moto G Power seems to be working fine with the Oct 1 2021 security update after switching Preferred Network Type to LTE/GSM/UMTS with FlameGApps-11.0-basic-arm64-20211016 I have gapps working fine. Thanks so much!

[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Tintin62:
Dumb question:

Is it possible to install this release on a stock firmware without installing TWRP ? If yes how please.
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] RaspberryPiBen:
On some ROMs you can, but not on this one. It's called installing with fastboot. If you don't want to install TWRP, I would recommend Pixel Experience instead: https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-rav-sofia-11-unofficial-pixelexperience-plus-aosp.4365039/

It's pretty similar but supports a fastboot install.

I dug around on the ArrowOS blog page and couldn’t figure out.. is this using Android 12 yet?
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Beetle84:
ArrowOS has Android 12, but this was discontinued on Android 11 for rav/sofiar though
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] StarSage:
Ugh! Just my luck. I don’t understand…why all the hate for the device?! Most reviews I read for 2021+ say the newer products are inferior :(
[Moto G Power ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Beetle84:
All the hate? Nothing like that. Basically, all the roms shared here used a pre-built vendor, that isnt compatible with android 12 roms. Soon enough some A12 roms will show up based on electimons new trees, which include a custom vendor.

As for me, i had 3 g8 series devices and have none now lmao, i sold my g8 power, donated one g8 and the mrs claimed the other g8 i had, so i don't have a device to test builds on, therefore all my stuff is discontinued.

There are commits in lineage-18.1 branch of universal7580 device tree, mostly from Danny (@danwood76), who is a device maintainer for Exynos 7580 devices:

https://review.lineageos.org/q/project:LineageOS/android_device_samsung_universal7580-common

So yes, there's work done. Most likely only Danny can provide some progress statement.

That said, LineageOS 18.1 was released on 1st April and so it's perfectly natural, that many devices are still on 17.1 builds.

I assume, there are some chances for official 18.1 builds within the next months.

Hi,

The LineageOS 18.1 bring up is complete for all of the exynos 7580 devices. We are all quite busy at the moment so the final review/testing has not been finished yet, no idea when we will complete it but it shouldn't be too long.

@Beetle84 Thanks for yet another one. But since you're dumping everything but this, may I ask what about arrow specifically made got want to switch to it alone?

Also, why do we need to go back to stock? Just to minimize errors? I don't understand. More precise and revelant debugging?

Thanks again I've been wanting to try this one but just had a couple questions lol
[Moto G Stylus (Moto G Pro) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Beetle84:
Mainly the simplicity of it, and it has all the features I need.

Going back to stock first with the flash tool is mainly about prepping the b slot for TWRP flashable ROMs.

[Moto G Stylus (Moto G Pro) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Beetle84:
@EpicSaga Not sure mate, ive never tried.
[Moto G Stylus (Moto G Pro) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] griz.droidx:
Absolutely it does! Microg works fine, as is or as a magisk module. I use the magisk module from the magisk app because you get basic installation and everything works. You only need to open the app and go to self test and click each item missiing their permissions for most everything to be added. Still need to get your nlp services added and enabled for network based location services.

I was just yesterday afforded the time to install and try the rom. I can definitely see the appeal of the minimalistic approach and I really like how the ROM specific settings are integrated into the existing categories instead of in a dedicated tab.

If I had only one wish it'd be for the long swipe long press options to kill apps and so on. Don't get me wrong it affords plenty of customizations and seems to be a fine ROM. I'm going to give it a go to see how things roll.
