Hey mate,

Thanks heaps for starting this convo.

I have the CN version of the Razr 2022 as well, and pretty keen to move to the Global ROM, cause there's just a few weird things happening/that don't quite work.

I notice the ROM you've flashed is for the x30 Pro and Edge, not the Razr specifically.

Does that make a difference?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] james1089:
No I didn't flash that rom and if you do say goodbye to your device.

You need to flash oneli rom choose here I only followed the guide on how to, know one would flash a ROM from a different device would they?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] worply:
Glad to see I'm not the only early adopter with some regrets and looking for a way out of the LeCloud only madness. To james1089 and anyone else who has successfully flashed their Razr 2022 CN version phone, would be very grateful if you offer answers to the following questions:

1. Does Google apps sync (contacts calendar sms etc), backup & restore, work after flashing EU ROM?

2. Are you able to continue using a chinese carrier sim on the newly flashed EU ROM?

3. Looking at the oneli folder of the firmware link james1089 so kindly shared;

3a. does the RETAIL firmware the stock chinese one?

3b. any advice on the difference between RETEU and TELEU?

3c. any idea what the OPENMX one is?

Thanks in advance for sharing and spreading the knowledge.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] james1089:
Everything works just like it's an EU phone can't say if Chinese SIM will work although I'd be surprised if it doesn't. Contact sync can work on Chinese ROM also using an older Google contacts APK. Not sure what the other ROMs are but EU comes with no bloat what so ever just like a pixel phone.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ultratrickster:
Just wanted to say thanks to @james1089. I installed EU rom on my razr and I've never been so thankful for notifications. Everything seems to be working so far. The only thing is Netflix, but I don't use it much on the phone anyway. Anyway thanks again (y).

For those of you guys that are trying to install global rom, just follow what james1089 did. The only issue I ran across was unlocking bootloader and getting android SDK. Just YouTube it and then follow the rest of the guide as it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] james1089:
I'll have a try at netflix
[Motorola Droid RAZR] auntu84:
Anyone got the Motorola RAZR 2022 with 12GB+512GB variant and found there is no eSIM?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] james1089:
Chinese version?

If I hit the+ I get option to download esim
[Motorola Droid RAZR] auntu84:
Yes chinese version. I dont have the + sign.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] james1089:
If you unlock and swap to EU ROM you will have option
[Motorola Droid RAZR] auntu84:
Really that's great news but according to the Motorola support center, this version does not have it. In any case, I will for sure change to the EU ROM. But correct me if I am wrong the EU ROM is not yet available, right?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] james1089:
I click add and it asks to scan QR code and camera opens, I have no QR code so can't be 100%, seems it would work
[Motorola Droid RAZR] auntu84:
Do you know how to change to EU ROM?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] james1089:
You have to unlock bootloader for starters .

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Geekazoid78:
Say what you want, but after switching to the EU rom I miss a few of the Chinese features. For one " intergrated visual voicemail" in the phone app. and the voicemail composing feature where you can make different messages and switch between them. I was using the chinese one to deter random sales calls. I wonder If i can put the CN phone app into the EU ROM. Anyones elses Phone app not showing a voicemail? ( Tmobile here in the US) 512GB variant, Kind of a PITA that this is STILL a thing in late 2022.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Januwar:
Hi all,

I'm on CN Razr2022 as wel, so very happy to have found this thread.

Unfortunatelly the reffering thread (Convert your Moto x30 Pro (CN) to Edge 30 Ultra (EU) is a bit cryptic to me.

Does someone have a more detailed instruction.

Especially I wonder about this points:

1. Basically al that is in 02. Make a backup of ALL partitions on your device (Optional but RECOMMENDED)

- Copy the boot.img to your devic

- o your PC and flash it Flash with what sofware? Minimal ADB?

- the listed code can be copied like this in CMD?

Can 02.Make a backup be skipped anyway?

2. Boot your phone into fastboot how do you boot into fastboot on the Razr2022?

Thanks!!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] james1089:
Well like it says it's optional, download original ROM that came with your phone extract it in there you will find the boot.img.

Fastboot is easy with phone switched off just press vol -. And power at the same time.

Download android SDK platform tools
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Guilhon:
Friend,

Congratulations for the information, but I have a question.

My xt2251-1 (has Global ROM (Chinese custom version). Boot loader is unlocked and OTA updates don't work.

I saw that the GLOBAL version ROM (retail) and the European version (retail) for the xt2251-1 are now available (https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/motorola/oneli/official/).

If I install the official retail ROM, will OTA updates work?

I'm preferring RETAIL, because I'm in Brazil, but I can install the RETEU ROM version.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] james1089:
I would follow the guide for the other phone but obviously use the ROM for the RAZR, the updates should work if you follow the guide exactly.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Guilhon:
Quais arquivos ADB e Fastboot você copiou para a pasta do firmware?

Onde posso baixar arquivos ADB e fastboot?

Obrigado
[Motorola Droid RAZR] james1089:
Not sure I'm using Linux
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Geekazoid78:
Im also able to confirm that Relocking the bootloader is possible and relatively simple. still no OTAs since october for eu rom ..
[Motorola Droid RAZR] james1089:
So you converted from cn to EU and relocked the bootloader? Not sure that's wise anyhow my RAZR screen has died probably from cold weather either way the quality isn't there
[Motorola Droid RAZR] anishluv:
No it doesn’t download esim after qr scan. It gets stuck on checking network info after successful scan. Seems the hardware is missing to save the esim data. Anyway working on the physical sim only.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Rossc0:
Sorry, to confirm you went from Razr 2022 Motorola CN ROM to Motorola EU Rom and were

able to relock the bootloader without issue?

I'm looking to do the same as I need dont need root and want mdm to function correctly. Did you just follow the steps on the first thread here? https://xdaforums.com/t/convert-your-moto-x30-pro-cn-to-edge-30-ultra-eu.4491699/

Many thanks.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Geekazoid78:
Yikes! I had the 5 g razr but didnt have it long enough to get that far. hopefully that doesnt happen but Im starting to see them pop up more and more on Ebay, so if it fails ill get another.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Geekazoid78:
Why is it not wise ?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Geekazoid78:
Yes I was able to lock the bootloader with no issues... just using a typical " lock oem bootloader script" actually thats the least of my concerns..... I take no responsibility for your device though. because on the flipside I had hell trying to to get EU rom to boot up once installed... so different issues all togeher.

My reasoing was the OTA security updates( which BTW they are still on October from what I see) so relocking yeilded an empty bag of nothing.

NOW, Im trying to unF$%^ this situation with T-mobile and the lack of intergrated visual voicemail. and trying to get the CN dialer ( or any dialer with similar features) back. I think EU Rom is blocking me from installing any of the MOTO UI indian or Chinese variants
[Motorola Droid RAZR] james1089:
B

because you can wake up one morning and it's bricked
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Geekazoid78:
Ah well so far so good... fingers crossed, If it bricks itll be for some other dumbness I did like right now trying to uninstall the Android dialer... this thing is on the razors edge ( pun alert ) of anything we have here in the states... its almost ridiculous... so if i can get it dialed in, Ill be happy but Im not exactly ed snowden, so we will see
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Geekazoid78:
Just curious, can you outline the scenario in which the Bootloader relocking would cause boot failure? code or hardware wise?

Many thanks
[Motorola Droid RAZR] james1089:
I can't I just read through the Motorola threads, maybe it's not the case anymore can you post the steps you took. At this stage bricked phone is better than what I have ATM screen unresponsive and half missing.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Rossc0:
Th

Thanks mate. I've got weird MDM issues tied up with Google device identifiers that make me think the Chinese rom is causing problems. Some other weirdness around contact sync that I fixed and Google wallet vs android wallet constantly fighting to be the default that makes me want to try a EU Rom. But I need it all 'intact' once flashed so payment and mdm/workspace one works.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] james1089:
That's why I asked him to explain exactly what he done, nothing yet
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Rossc0:
Hey. Did you relock the bootloader after?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Imchas:
hi james1089, I also have the RAZR 2022 and it is killing me that I can't use Android Auto, you mentioned you "used this quide" can you tell me complete instructions on what do do, I don't see the guide you mentioned
[Motorola Droid RAZR] james1089:
If you look at post 4and 5, 4 is the guide for a different model but works perfectly 5 is the download of the ROM for razor
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Imchas:
ok thanks for the explanation
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Imchas:
did you flash RETGB? is that global
[Motorola Droid RAZR] james1089:
Actually I flashed EU
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Geekazoid78:
i followed this more or less.. like you I skipped all TWRP shennanigans and of course didnt back up a thing, but it worked...

https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-relock-bootloader-should-work-in-all-versions.4057497/
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Geekazoid78:
Goodmorning, for anyone following this thread, I can finally confirm that I am receiveing security updates on the EU rom ( w/ a re- locked bootloader) Motorola like 90 % phone manufactures they are 1-2 months behind the official release.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] james1089:
It doesn't surprise me because I got the first update no problem, think they just happened to mess something up.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Guilhon:
Before relocking the bootloader, did you change the software channel? retcn to reteu?

I changed it to retail ROM and it wasn't getting OTA updates. After changing software channel (retcn to reteu) OTA updates worked.

Now all that's left is to relock the bootloader for the other apps to work. Applications that need the CTS certificate.

but i'm afraid to turn my smatphone into brick. haha..

I found some commands to relock.

fastboot oem lock (to lock the boatloader) or fastboot flashing lock

What do you advise?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Guilhon:
Did you relock the bootloader? How did you do it?

I want to reblock too?

Did apps that need locked bootloader work?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Geekazoid78:
yes I went fron CN to EU then relocked ....I did this a while ago. Say mid November and the updates didn't show untill Jan 3rd. So probably the Normal updates. ( OEMs are always behind Mother Google ..

relocking... It's on you.... I take no responsibility. I had a backup phone so I did it. I was concerned too but after the hassle I had to get the phone to boot in the first place after the switch to the new ROM, that was the least of my concerns. I think bricking from a relock is from the old timey days of previous ROMs . Remember there's a LOT of misinformation purposely put on this forum to dissuade any creativity on your part. Creativity equals lost revenue for device manufacturers....or so they 🤔 think.

What they are actually doing is unintentionally shooting themselves in the nuts...yeah Motorola I'm talking to you.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Guilhon:
Excellent information.

How did you relocked?

Did you just use the "fastboot oem lock" or "fastboot flashing lock" scrips?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Geekazoid78:
Yep. Fastboot oem lock.... I always use the KISS tactics first ... Then go hardcore if that doesn't work...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Rossc0:
Yes! Yes! Yes! Done and relocked on EU(from CN). All working so far. Weird MDM enrollment issues gone. Weird password manager issues gone. Default wallet app back to normal. Netflix installed. The experience is so much nicer. No issues with banking apps yet.

Thanks all.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Geekazoid78:
Mark a point on the scoreboard for the common man.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Guilhon:
Friends,

I would like to record my experience with the RAZR 2022 XT2251-1

1) I bought the RAZR 2022 on Aliexpress. Device produced for Chinese market (official Chinese ROM, but changed by Aliexpress seller)

A RAZR 2022 arrived for me with the following configurations:

a) Global CUSTOM ROM (nstalled by aliexpress seller)

b) Bootloader unlocked

c) Software channel: retcn

Observation. Netflix and Google pay did not work. Every app that needed the CTS Certificate didn't work.

What I decided to do:

2) I changed the Global Custom ROM to Motorola's OFFICIAL RETAIL ROM (I didn't make a backup, I just used ADB to install the new ROM)

3) I changed the software channel retcn to reteu (I used the command “fastboot oem config carrier reteu”). I had to restore the device for the change to be shown in the system.

4) I locked the bootloader again (I used the command fastboot oem lock)

Result: Apparently everything is working perfectly. Android auto, Netflix, Google pay (NFC) and OTA updates.

Thanks for all the forum comments. They helped a lot.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] james1089:
Great news when I repair my screen I'll relock the bootloader and hopefully everything will be good again.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] yxcs007:
It seems so great :)

By any chance, is there a Tuto that explains step by step, with the requirements (software, drivers, etc..), how to do steps 2, 3 and 4 please?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Guilhon:
Friend, making a detailed tutorial takes a lot of work, but I'll leave some references and tips for you.

good to know .. i guess shouldve looked
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ANazieh:
Thank you for the details provided. It was very helpful.

I have installed a new rom and changed to RETEU but still I couldn't add an esim. After scanning the barcode, it keeps loading and nothing happens.

Have anyone managed to configure the esim?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Rossc0:
Same problem on reteu. Only tried it once and assumed it was just a dodgy provider as it was a holiday esim. Am about to try again in next day or two with different provider so will let you know. This is the only problem encountered so far after reflashing and locking bootloader.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ANazieh:
BTW, it was the same behavior when I bought it from Ali Express and was unlocked by the seller.

Will be waiting you updates..thanks again
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Guilhon:
I changed to RETAIL and I don't use the eSim. If I have the opportunity, I will test an eSIM.

Remember that the device is not dual chip. If using a SIM CARD, the e-sim will not enable.

Good luck
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Rossc0:
Whoa, really? Thanks. I thought one physical and one esim? Got a link to any docs on this? I had no clue.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ANazieh:
I have changed to Retail too. I removed the physical sim, installed retail rom, and then tried to register the esim, but same issue.

Appreciate your support.
