[Index] Flashing Motorola Firmware​

​

If your device has its own section please post in that section.​

You can ping me with @sd_shadow​

There are a few options for flashing stock Motorola firmware.

Linux and Mac flashing options are posted in my thread here.

Windows Options

Rescue and Smart Assistant (LMSA)(PC) : Best option but not Compatible with all devices

RSD Lite: Great if you can get it to work, It's not compatible with many Windows 10 pcs and USB 3 ports.

Using Mfastboot.exe to Flash a Motorola device Built for Motorola hasn't been updated in years, but still works well.

Using fastboot.exe Not great for Locked Bootloaders

There are a few options for updating (Non-OTA)

RSD Lite (using Windows XP/7)

Remove This line from flash_file.xml with Notepad++ then save​

<step operation="erase" partition="userdata"/>

​

LMSA (Update option or Rescue)

The update option does not wipe data​

​

Fastboot.exe

Just do not use this command​

fastboot erase userdata

​

LMSA is the easiest option if you have a Windows PC
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sd_shadow:
Changing Software channel​

(ro.carrier)

Some reasons for changing the Channel are because the

current channel

Doesn't include Google Framework (Playstore)

Has lots of bloatware.

Doesn't support the carrier you want to use

Hasn't been updated

Caution

Most Motorola devices have several sub-models. (XTxxxx-1, XTxxxx-2, XTxxxx-ds...)

If the current channel and the new channel are the same sub-model.

There shouldn't be any issues but

Your devices hardware may not compatible with other sub-model firmware

for the following reasons

Does not support NFC

Single or Dual Sim card support

Other hardware differences

Caution

Unlock the Bootloader

If you do not unlock the bootloader​

Best case the firmware will not install

Worst case the device will become unusable and unfixable.

These instructions work well with Qualcomm Devices, if your device has a MediaTek Chip this may not work.

In many cases, the Software Channel can be changed with the following steps.

Windows PC Instructions​

(If you do not have a Window machine see fastboot.exe thread for flashing commands)​

​

Unlock the bootloader (You will lose user data when it's unlocked)

Install LMSA

Confirm your Device's Product Name, and channel in LMSA

Download the current firmware with LMSA,

Move the current firmware to a different folder

Find your devices Codename (the codename should be in the folder name of the downloaded firmware)

Search for your devices Codename at Lolinet or Moto Update Tracker

Download the different Channel Firmware

Unzip the Firmware

Rename the new channel firmware folder to the same name as the firmware folder downloaded with LMSA

Move the renamed firmware folder to ProgramData\LMSA\Download\RomFiles

[General Questions and Answers] Portalus:
Greetings everyone.

I've toggled sensor disable option in programming options in my Android phone and I'm able to manualy shut down all: camera, gps, microphone etc., just from quick menu bar at the top. However since a while, I've observed something weird. While sensors are disabled (icon is active - blue circle around appear), sometimes the icon pattern changes color from white to black.

It is happening only when sensor disable option in ON and it never ever happend with any other icons, like WIFI, GPS, Bluetooth, etc.

I'm using Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite (with stock OEM theme) and at this phone icon pattern to disable al sensors is a "life line", like line in hospital devices to checking pulse. While icon is ON, it's appearing to be in blue circle and "life line" is white; however sometimes this "line" become very dark, nearly black.

Does some1 know what does it mean ? Maybe some app is bypassing and turning some hardware on ?

I hope some1 had same situation or know what is it about, I was trying to google it but there's not even a piece of byte information about this (mal)function apperiance.
[General Questions and Answers] ninjin14:
Hi guys

I have an old android phone with a broken display and it would cost too much to replace it. I can still use the phone when plugged into a screen or TV.

My question is how do I make the display stay off? There is no reason to have on when it's plugged into the TV, just using power and adding heat.

I tried searching online, but I keep finding posts how to make it stay on
[General Questions and Answers] dedq:
Try using Tasker which you can use to make a profile. The profile will turn off your screen once it gets turn on after you plug in your charger.
[General Questions and Answers] ninjin14:
Seems to cost money

Can you try it out for me before I buy it?
[General Questions and Answers] dedq:
I've tried it and it works. The profile would be whenever your phone screen turns on, your phone screen will turn off.

You can find modded application online so you don't really need to buy it.
[General Questions and Answers] ninjin14:
So just to make sure, the screen will be turned off, but it still works via the HDMI out on the TV right?
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
If it's an LCD display I wouldn't worry too much about SOT. The back lighting LEDs probably have a 20K hours lifespan at full brightness.

Turn down the display brightness if you're really concerned.

Direct sunlight is a LCD's worst enemy. They can also be poisoned by solvents. Keep all solvents including isopropyl alcohol away from them.
[General Questions and Answers] dedq:
I don't really have experience with things you're trying to do but the best thing you can do is to actually try it in practice. I cannot guarantee that your monitor will stay on if the phone is off. Download Tasker and you will see.
[General Questions and Answers] ninjin14:
The screen already has burn-in and broken glass. I just want less heat and power consumption + it might annoy me seeing the light flashing from the phone.
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
LCD's can have memory "burn in" which is reversible. The broken glass though will eventually destroy the display.

You can force them install Android apps for TV but the problem is once you open it it won't actually operate cuz it'll say it's not compatible so you won't be able to use them I'm in the same situation cuz I have an old phone I want to use as my daily Android TV and of course the apps are optimized for Android TV are better than the mobile versions but they won't work

I have a xiaomi mi9 . The phone was working correctly

for 1,5 years . Now it randomly shuts down every 3 - 8 minutes

and sometimes it does not open after a shutdown , and I have to

wait an hour or two to start it again .

So I ordered a new mobo for xiaomi mi 9 and a new battery , because

I thought the mobo was faulty , I replaced them both , but the

problem still remains . Any ideas of what might the problem

be besides the mobo and battery ?

[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] Deathlan:
Hi I have a samsung SM-970u ( s10e snapdragon TMO) is there a way to make a downgrade form android 11 to android 10 ?
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] supertac:
I...wondered the exact same thing....

but even with an unlocked bootloader it doesn't seem possible if your bootloader version is too high...it was possible when Android 11 first came out but versions may have changed now. I tried flashing with odin myself but I'm getting sw rev check fail... even with an unlocked bootoader.

I'd love to be wrong cause I want stock android 10 but i can't find info otherwise.

[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] Cilvaring:
I was wondering if I can downgrade from 12 to 9.

But as I'm reading a lot of posts, I'm guessing it will be next to impossible?

Baseband: G970FXXUEGVA2
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] iBowToAndroid:
You can never officially downgrade more than one version.

The only possibility would be to unlock the phone's bootloader and flash a custom ROM based on Android 9. But I do not even know if it is theoretically possible to run an Android 9 ROM on an Android 12 bootloader
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] Cilvaring:
From what I've learned the phone has a version of the bootloader.

In my case that's version 14 (resp. E because it's hexadecimal)

I found that f.e. Android 11 was released in versions that had different bootloader versions (9, A, B, C, D & E).

So I was only able to install the Android 11 that came with bootloader version E.

And as it stands now, it seems like it's impossible to downgrade the bootloader which in the end makes it a huge pile of s**t on Samsung's or even Google's end.

It's kinda the Apple way of doing things and not letting you do what you wish...
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] iBowToAndroid:
Kind of. Except:

1. Apple doesn't let you downgrade firmware at all

2. Apple doesn't offer unlockable bootloaders and therefore there's no possibility of a custom ROM
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
It's a cruel lesson. Android becomes more Apple than Android with each upgrade.

Literally the first thing I do on a new Samsung is package block OTA updates.

I have two N10+'s, one running on 9, the other 10.

They will stay on that firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] Cilvaring:
Well yes, but the fact that google's core apps are not open source and more and more APIs or libraries are only available on phones that have certain pre-installed google apps takes a big piece of liberty out of android.

My bet also is, it won't get better since google just won't stop generating money in new ways day after day.

But: Android still is a whole lot better than the half-eaten piece of fruit. No doubt.

I hear you.

Was running a S7 with Oreo before I switched to the S10e now and it will stay on Oreo until it dies as a backup phone.

Sadly the seller of the S10e already had updated it to 12, so I'm stuck with at least 11 due to the bootloader.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Android 11 was one reason I bought a new N10+ about 5 months ago versus a N20U. I thought new N10+ be running on 9 but it ended up loaded with 10 due to the manufacturing date. It turned out ok.

I learned the hard way with Samsung and upgrades 6 years ago... and was about as happy as you.

Unfortunately many of the resellers will load whatever is the latest OS version when they test out a phone.

It's more than just a little aggravating. Forget the Google bs hype... I still remember the horror of MS Vista🤣

Hopefully you'll find workarounds to iron out the rough edges or if it really gets on your last nerve return or resell it. Life's too short to live with a phone you hate.
