Remove Unlocked Bootloader Message Moto G5S Plus, G5S - Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D

Although Motorola has made it facile to unlock the bootloader on its recent or upcoming devices, the manufacturer still warns about these activities. The unlock bootloader method is listed on Motorola’s official site, and has made the process easy and convenient for users and developers. However, once you unlock the bootloader, a message will be displayed warning about the risks associated with it. Although its won’t affect the functioning of your device, users find it annoying at times as it is displayed every time you reboot.

This logo can be used to replace the warning message on any new generation Motorola device. Here, as you may have already setup the adb and fastboot while unlocking the bootloader, you can use the same setup to remove the warning. You can also flash the zip file through a custom recovery, if you have TWRP or CWM on your Motorola device.
Prerequisites
Set up ADB and Fastboot on your computer. You can download the minimal ADB and fastboot tool from download section (unzip it).
Install Motorola USB Drivers on your computer.
Open Settings> Developer options and enable USB Debugging on your device.
Go to Developer options and enable oem unlock.
Remove Unlocked Bootloader Warning
Make sure you have setup ADB and fastboot on your PC.
Download the logo file and transfer the logo.bin file to some place you can track it easily. Its better if you use the folder where you setup the fastboot.
Power off your device and keep it unplugged from your PC.
Boot into bootloader. To do so, press and hold volume down and the power button for 5-6 seconds.
You will see the bootloader screen. Now plug in your device to the PC.
Navigate to the location of the logo.bin file. While the folder with the logo file is open, hold shift on keyboard and right-click on an empty space and select “Open command window here” option to launch a cmd window.
Now type the following in the command prompt to get a code
fastboot flash logo logo.bin​
Now type the following in command prompt to reboot.
fastboot reboot​
Once you reboot, you will no longer see the bootloader warning as it has been replaced with the Motorola logo. You can choose a custom image you like but be sure it is in .bin extension.
Download Section
Minimal ADB size: 628.5KB
Logo.bin size: 1.26MB
Original Logo: Logo.bin size: 1.3MB
Note: Original Logo has blue background. So it shows a small white N/A text.

Hey from where i can find Motorola usb drivers

It says in the instructions you can flash a zip from custom recovery? Can't find a zip file to download in the original post though. Is it as simple as zipping the logo.bin file and then flashing from TWRP?

[Moto G6 Plus] 2: Returning to Stock

THIS GUIDE IS FOR THE MOTO G6 PLUS ONLY
2: Returning to Stock
If for any reason your phone is no longer functioning properly such as a bootloop (the phone is restarting itself over and over), "Can't Load Android System," "Startup Failed", or any such error you can fix this by flashing the stock firmware using fastboot.
I have taken stock firmware version OPW27.113-89 and packaged it with a few extras. XDA Member luiz_neto has provided a modified logo.bin that removes the unlocked bootloader warning during boot. A special thanks to XDA Member lohanbarth for providing the stock firmware. I have included the fastboot file for Windows, Linux and Mac users. Windows users can run the .bat file to execute all the necessary commands. For Linux and Mac users, I have included a bash script. You will need access to a PC and connect your phone via a USB cable.
*Downloads:
Modified Stock Firmware OPW27.113-89: (Download)
MD5: 3a1d984a8a3d0c57fb21931a8004eb27
Instructions:
*On your phone:
2A. With the phone powered off(even if for just a moment between the phone rebooting) hold the Power button and the Volume Down(Vol -) at the same time. You should boot into what is called the bootloader. It should display information on the screen and state "AP Fastboot Flash Mode" in orange lettering.
*On your PC:
2B: Extract the firmware which is in tar.xz container/file extension. Windows user probably need to use Winrar, 7Zip or PeaZip to extract the file.
2C: Using Windows Explorer, navigate to the folder EVERT_OPW27.113-89_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml and click on it to open it.
2D: Hold the Shift Key on your Keyboard. While holding Shift, Right Click in the window(not on the file). Depending on your windows version you should see either "Open PowerShell Window here" or "Open Command Window here." Select which ever one applies.
2E: You will see a black and white screen or a blue and white screen. The steps are the same no matter which screen you see. Simply type(or copy and paste) the following command:
Windows:
Code:
flash_rom.bat
For Linux and Mac you need to make the script file executable. It will make the fastboot binary executable for you. From a terminal run these 2 commands one at a time:
Linux:
Code:
chmod a+x flash_rom.sh
./flash_rom.sh
Mac:
Code:
chmod a+x flash_rom_mac.sh
./flash_rom_mac.sh
Your phone should reboot on it's own. If for some reason it doesn't try tapping the enter key on your keyboard or use the volume keys to make sure “Start” is selected on the right side of the phone and pres the power key on the phone. It should successfully boot the stock firmware.

No, I'm not talking about the unlocked bootloader warning, but the message that appears after you lock the bootloader. "Your device has loaded a different operating system"

Hi! have you succeed with your issue flashing this stock firmware ?
Does this stock firmware helps to remove warnings "This device has loaded a different operating system", and "Verity mode disabled" during boot?
And the worst thing is the message "System integrity compromized" and hens - GooglePay disabled and no software updates., when bootloader is re-locked?

Please follow my guide below. That would be much easier I think, because it seems you are doing several things wrong.
1. download ADB/Fastboot tools from here and extract the downloaded zip to 'C:\' to create the path 'C:\platform-tools'
2. download your current firmware build here.
You use 116-16-22 but the latest build is 11-16-29 for RETBR.
3. extract the firmware.zip to 'C:\platform-tools'
Watch out to extract only single files and images to that path and do not create a subfolder => see screenshot attached
4. extract attached flashfile.zip to 'C:\platform-tools'
5. open 'C:\platform-tools' in Explorer and type 'cmd' in the address bar and hit 'Enter'
=> opens a new cmd window
6. boot your Moto into fastboot mode, connect it to your PC and run 'fastboot devices'
=> output: <SERIAL-NO> fastboot
7. execute 'flashfile.bat' and start flashing

I tried again and now these errors occur. I thought it might be a locked bootloader, but apparently everything is ok, at startup it has an unlocked bootloader warning. And really thank you to helping me.

No, your bootloader isn't unlocked. The OEM-Unlock toggle would be inactive (greyed out) in case of an unlocked bootloader.

About Team win recovery project
TWRP is an open source, community project. TWRP development is done by roughly 4 people at this point. We also have a large support community with many people who are willing to answer questions and help people with their devices either through our IRC channel or on forums like xda-developers.
Team Win was originally formed to work on porting WiMAX to CM7 for the HTC EVO 4G. After our work on the EVO 4G we wanted to work on a project that would work on more devices than just the EVO 4G and we settled on working on a recovery. Today TWRP is the leading custom recovery for Android phones.

No! You need to unlock your bootloader before using this.
Hi,
First thanks for your great work.
But I have a problem.
After doing a full backup and doing some testing, I restored my whole backup. The process succeeded. But I am stuck in a bootloop,my phone boots to the point, where I can see the LOS 17.1 Logo, But does not continue. Have waited for 30 minutes a few times now.
I tried the built in bootloop fix, But it does not fix my problem.
Thanks in advance

Hi! I'd like to install TWRP on my Nokia6.1 2018 however whenever I reboot to download mode for whatever reason the device isn't found anymore through ADB and because of that I can't do fastboot devices as it yields nothing and when I skipped it, it just waited for a device forever. What's weird is that it is connected, even windows says that.

While phone is in fastboot mode, open device manager. Locate the unknown device and update its driver. Choose fastboot driver from existing drivers. It will install the driver and will work

Thanks, I had same problem and this is working. Anyway the problem is, I have to do this every time I want to TWRP. Is there any way how to fix this and be able to avoid `flash recovery` part?
edit: removed
Looks like can't decrypt with Android 11. I'm 100 % sure that password is correct. With Android 10 it worked fine.
Are there any plans for updates? Thanks.

Route to ROOT an unkonw AndroidTV Devices Technicolor DWI259S/UIW4020ETI (Sapphire)

Hi guys, I'm here to learn something about Android Security System.
I have this Sapphire TV BOX
model: DWI259S / UIW4020ETI / UIW4020ETI2 (Sapphire)
SoC: Broadcom BCM7271
The goal of this post is to understand how I can gain root access on this device
I know how to turn it in recovery mode .
if you are interested you can read this Reddit post from ams_sharif
"You can boot to recovery by switching the unit off ( the black button in the back), then while holding the power button (the one on the side, next to the pair button) turn the set top box on until the recovery shows up."
This is what I see.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I tried to flash an update.zip in order to see if I can execute command through any script, but the verification of the signature fails.
I tried to click on "Apply update from USB" (that is adb sideload) , but connecting the tv box on the pc nothing happen, no device found neither with "adb devices"
I tried also to click on "Reboot to bootloader" but "fastboot devices" command return nod devices connected.
My idea was to read the recovery image from fastboot extract it and try to compile my own TWRP
Do you have any suggestions to guide me in the right way?
@element14
When you enter
Code:
adb devices
and don't see an entry listed under the “List of devices” section, then your device isn't connected to PC.
Same is case when you enter
Code:
fastboot devices
Recovery option "Apply update from USB" isn't equal to "adb sideload". This option assumes the Update.Zip you want to flash is located on USB-device connected with your TV box.
With regards to rooting your TV box you can try to flash Chainfire's SuperSu Pro.
BTW: TWRP isn't a recovery image you compile in order to flash, it's merely a touch-enabled replacement for device's Stock Recovery menu as shown by you

When you enter
Code:
adb devices
and don't see an entry listed under the “List of devices” section, then your device isn't connected to PC.

Are you sure that I can flash an unsigned zip like superSu , with a stock recovery and locked bootloader ?

The TWRP is an open source project , all the source code is avaiable. But to have it works , you need the original kernel .
I tought , If I can unlock the bootloader I can read the image of the recvoery.img and from it extarct the kernel
Thanks for your answer.
@ element14
did you manage to make the device usebale?
Hello, i am also interested to reset\flash this device but I couldn't find any useful guide, did you manage to root it or flash it, I want to use it as android STB.
As long as you can establish an USB-connection ( read: ADB connection ) then you can root any device's Android OS, otherwise NOT.
Any updates on this topic? It would be great to know if someone was able to root it.
If this is the etisalat version of this box I have gotten APKs to work on it.

Going to apps list:
- insert usb
- click browse
- go up to internal storage, press ok, click Apps
part 1
- go to apps list, keep usb inserted
- scroll to Files, click it, click open
- if it opens skip to part 2
- else it will crash and show the first time boot
- go to apps list again while keeping usb inserted
- open files again
part 2
- connect a mouse to other USB port, navigate into the USB and into where you placed your APKs
- double click the apk to install it
- on first time install, it will show an error about unknown sources
- click settings on the prompt
- enable all sources shown
- continue installing the app

you can't play videos from USB without installing third party apps.

Hi guys, I'm here to learn something about Android Security System.
I have this Sapphire TV BOX
model: DWI259S / UIW4020ETI / UIW4020ETI2 (Sapphire)
SoC: Broadcom BCM7271
The goal of this post is to understand how I can gain root access on this device
I know how to turn it in recovery mode .
if you are interested you can read this Reddit post from ams_sharif
"You can boot to recovery by switching the unit off ( the black button in the back), then while holding the power button (the one on the side, next to the pair button) turn the set top box on until the recovery shows up."
This is what I see.
I tried to flash an update.zip in order to see if I can execute command through any script, but the verification of the signature fails.
I tried to click on "Apply update from USB" (that is adb sideload) , but connecting the tv box on the pc nothing happen, no device found neither with "adb devices"
I tried also to click on "Reboot to bootloader" but "fastboot devices" command return nod devices connected.
My idea was to read the recovery image from fastboot extract it and try to compile my own TWRP
Do you have any suggestions to guide me in the right way?

How To Guide [ROM][STOCK][FASTBOOT][OP9R] Stock OxygenOS Fastboot ROMs

Ever wanted to unbrick your device or switch to stock ROM from a custom ROM without using MSM Unbrick tool and keeping your bootloader unlocked after that well fastboot ROMs are here to help you . I have extracted all images from the stock zip and i have made a new zip with the Fastboot ROM with a flash-all.bat included. This will work only if your bootloader is unlocked. This will erase all your data and will wipe your internal storage.
HOW TO FLASH
1). Download the zip
2). Unpack the zip in a folder
3). Reboot the OnePlus 9R in fastboot-bootloader mode (Power and volume + and volume-)
4). Connect the OnePlus 9R to PC
5). Run flash-all.bat flasher
6). Wait until the process end
7). Voila! your OnePlus 9R will now boot into OxygenOS
POINTS TO REMEMBER
* "Invalid sparce file format at header magic" is not an error, you need to wait a bit when you see that string, just wait.
* These ROMs can't be used to update or downgrade your phone but just to restore your phone. Downgrade from OOS 12 works now.
* This can’t be used to switch from ColorOS to OxygenOS you can use MSM unbrick tool to do that.
DOWNLOAD:-
https://sourceforge.net/projects/op8t-9r-fastboot-roms/files/OnePlus_9R/
Nice
Hi OP, I changed the tag from Development to How To Guide, because we only use Development for original work like you build the ROM from kernel/device tree etc... Thanks.

* !!! IMPORTANT !!!
Before flashing make sure you know about which type of ram your device supports i.e LPDDR4X/LPDDR5 as flashing wrong xbl config will hardbrick your device.
Here’s how you can check what type of ram your device has:-
Now, as to exactly find out which variant that you have, turn on USB debugging and enter this command:-
Code:
adb shell getprop ro.boot.ddr_type
If the value is 0, that means you have LPDDR4X. If the value is 1, that means you have LPDDR5.
This command is more reliable than the Devcheck and other apps.

Errr sorry I can make sure that I have the DDR5,but it seems that when I complete the flash using the DDR5 profile config,my phone hard bricked, so how can I get it back? Now it can not even enter 9008 mode

You will most likely need to visit the service center and get your phone repaired.
Are you sure that your device had DDR5?

Actually,I checked my DDR type via devcheck instead of the adb command. Seems that the dev check is no so reliable. Anyway, I have already sent my phone to the service center to repair, I have a OnePlus 7 pro as the backup phone, so it doesn't affect me too much.
Created a Tutorial based on your firmware/instructions. Hoping you will like it.

Yeah. The apps aren't reliable at this. Always use the adb command. 100% reliable. And since it's harbricked for you, I am pretty sure that you have a DDR4X variant.

It’s clearly written to not trust devcheck and other apps that prop is the only trusted source of finding which type of ram ur device has. It has also come to my attention that DDR5 devices can boot to EDL if we flash wrong xbl configs on them but the DDR4 ones can’t boot to EDL if wrong xbl config is flashed. (Means ddr4 users would have to get phone repaired by service center if wrong xbl config is flashed on their device)

I faced the same problem
Service center says they can't flash it back
They ended up replaced a new motherboard for me
hmm for me the
Code:
adb shell getprop ro.boot.ddr_type
returns empty.
I guess that infers I'm using LPDDR4X?
Edit:
Code:
adb shell getprop
This would return a complete list of all the properties you can query with this command. For me, this list doesn't seem to have any field called "ro.boot.ddr_type"

I'm using the Chinese variant of OP9R, not so sure if it matters.
Also, DevCheck would not report RAM variants under the hardware tab as well.

I checked it again and
OnePlus9R:/ $ getprop | grep ddr
[ro.boot.ddr_type]: [1]
[vendor.boot.ddr_type]: [1]
OnePlus9R:/ $
I'm sure flashed the ddr5 version, but it hard-bricked and even cant boot into 9008
*UPDATED*
* Added OxygenOS 11.2.6.6 Fastboot ROM
* Removed xbl configs so that now no more hardbricks happen
* Reduced partition sizes for inactive slot so that ROMs can be flashed properly through fastboot
will this work on Chinese variant 12gb/256gb ddr4 ? LE2100 bl is already unlocked

Moto E6S XT-2053-1 Unlock Bootloader, Disable Verity, ROOT Magisk, TWRP

I am perfom this Sorry for my english, I am from Ukraine
Download archive!
We unpack. Install the adb and mtk preloader drivers, if they are not installed, restart the computer.
In the smart, turn on the developers menu, in it - "Allow OEM unlock" and "USB debugging" and connect the smart to the computer.
We drop valuable photo data from the smart to the computer for any, and, without disconnecting the smart from the PC, run the script (with the phone connected to the PC and loaded into the android phone. Reboot_to_fastboot_getvar current-slot.bat (not from the admin, just click twice).
Smart will look like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
we allow - put a daw, ok. We are waiting for the smart to reboot into fastboot, when the barcode appears on the smart screen, before that we do not press anything in the script
I did the scripts step by step, after each operation in the script window, press enter to continue, and so on until each script is closed
We look at our current slot in the window and remember the letter - a or b:
In the script, press enter so that the smart reboots and the script closes.
Run flash_tool.exe, go to this tab and check the boxes, as in the screenshot:
So we consider the necessary versions of orig. files, so as not to download and sew a specific firmware version for this instruction.
(And best of all, all the checkboxes, except for system, vendor, userdata - they are not critical, if they are not removed, it will take up a lot of space on the computer up to +74 gb, but I did not put these checkboxes, there must be some risk and passion )
We press "Read Back" and only then we connect the switched off smart to the PC, we wait, at the end we disconnect the bodies, do not touch it: sveta:
Go to this tab, remove all checkboxes! And we only put on lk_ with the letter of a non-your slot that we looked at, for example, you had slot "a" - so we put a check on lk_b and vice versa :
Click "Download" and connect the switched off smart to the PC (it was already turned off: sveta
As it flashes, we close the USB flash drive window, disconnect and turn on the smart, after loading, we connect it to the PC again, we already run the script
Unlock_Moto_E6S.bat, wait until the body reboots into a fastboot (to the barcode on the screen) and only then press the input step by step to continue in the script until it is completely closed.
Everything, the bodies are unlocked. Now you can get an excellent and fast root from Magisk, try other firmware, unsubscribe which one is buggy, which one flies. I haven't tried yet. Now I will write how to flash orig. kernel with magisk root (attached magisk boot for xt2053-1 4/64 fw RETEU 288-60-6-29 https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/fiji/official/RETEU/
Additionally, there is a script in the folder to delete the message when loading that the bootloader is unlocked, it does not interfere much, but I deleted it. Since this is not important, I separated it from the main script, since I did not test it on different versions of the firmware, in theory it should work on all versions, you can try after unlock. Or throw off ROM_45 from your firmware, I'll remove it from it. I now have the latest firmware flashed, it is on the server, but for some reason it did not fly through the air. If you flash it, then you can safely delete the message from the bootloader with my script, there is a file from it)

I took the first firmware I got to try from here: https://4pda.to/forum/index.php?showtopic=892755
but the firmware itself is everywhere, for example here:
Generic System Image (GSI) list

You can try to sew any GSI arm64 a/b from anywhere you find and choose the one you like, because smart supports Project Treble.
If you like one and will look cool and work firmware, post links here!
Tested it and it worked! Thanks a lot!
Now looking for delevoping some roms to this device
Im having a little problem, i tried to flash a GSI with "fastboot -u flash system gsi.img", the device didn't boot. Then i tried to flash the stock with the SP Flash Tool, and i throws an error (status_sec_dl_ forbidden), then i flashed it with Lenovo Rescue and Smart Assistant. I tried to flash via fastboot the patched magisk image but it throws an signature error.
Any help? Tha device still says that is unlocked

did you use the auth file that comes with sp flash tool? without that your device wont boot properly
Yes, i used the correct download agent and auth file
interesting, i followed all his steps and had no problem rooting it. try backtracking with his scripts again?
Solved it, also me and a developer are working on a new, more simple and automated script. Still haven't figured out how to flash the lk via script.
When is done i will post a complete guide in the moto e6s forums on how to do it, i think it might work well, but i would have to test in a non-unlocked device
Can someone please make a video with explanation, I didn't understand very well what is done, so I won't touch anything, but I thank those who record a video explaining it to me (I'm Brazilian)
Here you have a more straight forward guide, note that is still in testing
