How to manually update Moto Z2P to NPS26.118-19 (August Security Patch) - Moto Z2 Play Guides, News, & Discussion

Hello all!
So I got tired of waiting for the latest update to hit my phone so I figured I would do it manually. After plenty of experience with Moto phones I gathered that the official RETAIL files should work with all of the GSM versions of the Moto Z2 Play. This is confirmed to work with both XT1710-01 and XT1710-07, but is likely to work with others (but not the US Verizon Model). For those of us who are security minded, this is flashed w/o unlocking your bootloader which means that only Motorola signed images will work, and it also means that you do not need to wipe your data. Woohoo!
As usual, you take full responsibility for anything you do to your phone, but since your bootloader is locked, this should be fairly low risk, barring some sort of power loss mid-flash.
How to:
1. Download & Install Motorola Drivers from XDA.
2. Download & extract stock rom from here.
3. Use mfastboot/fastboot to run the following commands/run the attached .bat file. (Hint: make sure fastboot files are in the same directory as the the ROM files and .bat file).
3a. If you need more help on mfastboot or fastboot, look here.
Code:
echo off
echo -------------------------------------------------------------------------
echo Moto Z2 Play ROM Flash Start
echo -------------------------------------------------------------------------
fastboot getvar max-sparse-size
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4

fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot erase carrier
fastboot erase DDR
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
echo -------------------------------------------------------------------------
echo Moto Z2 Play ROM Flash End
echo -------------------------------------------------------------------------
pause
fastboot reboot
exit
4. Enjoy!
Hope this helps!

but how is obtained stock rom?

For those of us who are security minded, this is flashed w/o unlocking your bootloader which means that only Motorola signed images will work, and it also means that you do not need to wipe your data. Woohoo!

The file you linked to on lolinet isn't signed. You do need to unlock the bootloader to flash it.

I had no problem flashing with a locked bootloader. Didn't even have to wipe. What error did you get when you tried to flash?

I am wondering if it works on an XT1710-08 model...

Boot Loop

Hi guys, I've tried all the threads so far and have got no where. I unlocked my device and flashed a custom rom, that worked fine. I then noticed no way to go back to stock so I tried the odexed version with no luck. Now any rom I flash does not boot, just loops back to twrp. I would like to get as close to stock as possible even if it's another region. Has anyone had any luck on getting their phones booting after this?
I've tried flashing stock firmware from 6.0.1 then flashing ota through side load
Flashing other countries firmware (which always ends in fail messages)
I've tried multiple rom from the forum which just loop.
I've spent about 6 hours trying different combinations of recovery, boot and other images with no luck.
Any help is appreciated.

I have gotten stuck with bootloops a couple times now, for me re-flashing a backup or custom rom or custom kernel didn't fix it either. Keep in mind that you cannot go back to 6.0.1 once you have flashed 7.0, the bootloader won't allow it. I have had to flash back to a stock firmware from https:// firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Moto%20Z/Stock/XT1650-03/ (remove the space after https:// ) and re-fastboot flash TWRP, re-root, and restore my Titanium Backups to get going again.
It's extremely helpful if you create a servicefile.bat to flash all the firmware parts in the right order. This is the one I made for flashing the RETMX 7.0 image (the main difference I noticed between different firmwares from that link is the number of sparsechunks, so add or delete lines as necessary. I'm sure all this info is available elsewhere, but I didn't manage to find it all in one shot. So I figured I would post it to help others out that are in the same boat. Also note that even though you are re-flashing the bootloader.img it does not re-lock your bootloader.

Copy the above text and paste it into a new text file and change the name to "servicefile.bat" without quotes (not servicefile.bat.txt), and drop it in with the extracted firmware files. Then either copy-paste your adb and fastboot files into that folder or drop all that folder's contents into your Users/*YOURNAME*/App Data/Local/Android/sdk/platform-tools/ folder. Or better yet, add "%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platform-tools" to your Path in your system's Environment Variables. The latter will make adb and fastboot work from any command prompt window, then you can just press shift+right-click in the folder that already has the firmware files and choose "Open command window here" and then just type servicefile.bat and press enter. Hope this helps! Good Luck and Happy Flashing!

[FASTBOOT ROM] OREO Retail OPS27.76-12-25 (April) using Fastboot

Hi all, i have found this on Motozbrasil Blogspot.
It reported XT1710-01, XT1710-02, XT1710-06, XT1710-07, XT1710-09 e XT1710-10 models as working, but my XT1710-08 works too (see details in this post).
>>>> All credits and thanks go to motozbrasil and its staff. It is not my creation, i have just shared and reported my personal experience with my XT1710-08, not listened on that site.
A special, big, superb thanks to Junior Passos @Junior Passos the op of the motozbrasil thread. <<<
Basical steps:
1) Install drivers (Win) and reboot pc;
2) Unzip firmware and ADB + FASTBOOT - MZ2PLAY in the same folder (thanks to htcmania for package);
3) Put your phone in fastboot mode (Vol down + Power) then Connect to pc, waiting for drivers if needed;
4) Double click on z.bat (edit it with your own commands or use my zips attached changing "mfastboot" voices with "fastboot", so delete "m" from every single command), press a button.
Profit.
We needed a retail fastboot Oreo rom, so here we are.
All at your own risk.
Good luck.
Due to motozbrasil site down on link posted, i linked new adb fastboot and Installer. As soon as possibile i will change and upload installers attached.

If you are under Ubuntu the easiest way for installing adb-tools is (from terminal):

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot

If you pass directly from ZUI skip also:
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

Those for preserving signal and data connection.

If you have a corrupted boot.img and you are not able to flash (like bangood or other shops do with chinese model), you first have to give that:

Hope is useful.
Link above are for Win (1st) and Linux (2nd)**.
** if you use attached .sh remember you have to connect you phone in fastboot mode to pc and then double click on it in the same folder you have unzipped firmware. Attached .bat and .sh files evading erase modemst1 and st2, so it is good for some brand device, not for other.
Remember, all at your own risk.
Thanks @KirMit
I confirm, that all is working after update on XT1710-11 (China Mobile), BUT! do not flash all - skip:
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
If you want your modems and fingerprint sensor are still working!

I've successfully upgraded my phone (XT1710-09) to oreo with this.
My phone is bootloader unlocked and was rooted with Magisk. before this.
TWRP was overwritten with stock recovery, but after reflashing I can't get it to decrypt, so no root for now. But everything else is working fine.
Thank you

Don't worry about the signed image. Try the locking command twice back to back. Hope this helps

[ROM][STOCK][RETAIL] Official Stock Pie 9 [updated March 6th]

Hi guys,
Did not see anyone here on XDA who uploaded recently leaked OFFICIAL PIE fastboot image ROM for Moto G6 Plus, so I decided to do it for you all. :highfive:
This is a RETAIL release so it should work on all variants of our device (I have XT1926-3 (this is RETEU, Europe, Poland) and flashed it without any problems, phone works flawlessly).

Flashing scripts (G6PlusFlashPieOfficial.bat from the attached .zip file can be also used, it contains the same commands as below):
If you are not sure what are you doing, ask here or read fastboot documentation before flashing anything:
--- If you don't want to erase all your phone data, use script from G6PlusFlashPieOfficial_NoErase.zip. This will upgrade your G6+ to Android Pie without erasing data. ---
Code:
fastboot getvar max-sparse-size
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash bluetooth BTFM.bin
fastboot flash dsp dspso.bin

fastboot flash vendor vendor.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot erase carrier
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase DDR
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
fastboot reboot
It works, indeed, flawless, though I used the version Vache shared on telegram. I assume it's the same file you used for this tutorial. I think it's important to mention that there are 2 possibilities to update:
1. The way you describe here
2. Use the update file (Blur_Version.29.11.11.evert.retail.en.US.zip) and place in the root of the internal storage. Then check for updates (though I think this only works when coming from a specific build).
Screenshots.
PS. Digital Wellbeing installed via Magisk.
My brother has a Moto G6 Plus (bought in Europe) without root, will he be able to update it without loosing his data?
Thanks in advance guys.
Is it also posible to use this zip, extract it and then use Fastboot to update without losing enything? So like this:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash bluetooth BTFM.bin

So you were able to upgrade without getting the "Verity mode is set to disabled" on the boot screen or having your System Updates disabled due to the unlocked bootloader?

"Verity mode is set to disabled" is still present on boot screen - I don't care.
System Updates were disabled at the begining - there was some information about System Integrity. After flashing Magisk 18 this information dissapeared as you noticed.

Just rechecked and found my System Updates page no longer gives the "system integrity" error either. Still do get the "verity" error, but seems of no concern. Cool.

This should do the trick. Remember to rename the file to Blur_Version......zip. (see my previous post).

No, it shouldn't. It's an update file. So it 'll leave all your apps and settings intact.
But if you want to be sure that you have a clean install, do a 'factory reset' prior to the update!
Oh yeah, remember to grant storage the 'motorola update services'

I place an "m" in front of fastboot to use mfastboot.
Get the mfastbootv2 it's best for flashing this way imo

All stock ROMs are multilingual. So Italian shouldn't be a problem.

A short explanation:
dm-verity
transparent integrity checking for block devices
read error if block integrity check fails
try to recover damaged blocks (from Android 7.0)
useful for read-only partitions like*system
fundamental part of*verified boot*on Android
Verified boot
device software integrity based on hardware root of trust
Boot chain (simplified)
verify*bootloader*using a hardware root of trust
bootloader*verifies*boot*and*recoverypartition
kernel*verifies*system*partition
uses dm-verity for the integrity checks once execution has moved to the boot partition
Hmmm. For some reason I get "Server error" in play store. And autobrightness jumps up and down every few seconds. Have tried returning to oreo and reflashing/factory resetting to no avail On reteu.
EDIT: Hmm also get the error in oreo now Anyone know whats up? Came from Lineage 16.

Android 11 to Android 10 downgrade
It seems Motorola has disabled bootloader downgrade through Anti-Rollback in Android 11. The latest version of Android 11 (Q1-19-58-30-2) doesn't allow vbmeta to be flashed. Fastboot would return following error:
(bootloader) WARNING: vbmeta_a anti rollback downgrade, 10 vs 16
I have the Verizon Edge plus. I noticed that there is a VZW folder, which I am assuming is the Verizon firmware, and a Retail folder on the lolinet mirror. Can you flash the retail version on the Verizon version of the phone successfully and would it remove the Verizon bloat?

How long is the "fastboot oem fb_mode_clear" command supposed to last? Left it for a lot of time and nothing happens, I check the bootloader logs and last log is erase:ddr. If I select Start from the menu using the up/down keys and the start button, it takes me to a screen where it says no valid firmware detected contact motorola support. Please help
I haven't tried it yet but someone confirmed to me that you can flash the retail firmware on a Verizon variant. Yes it will remove the extra junk. No it will not make the bootloader unlockable
(bootloader) Invalid partition name Bluetooth- can proceed no further. Had to rescue as phone is a necessity

if the bootloader is unlocked does that mean it can be used with any carrier? what exactly would an unlocked bootloader enable?
Unlocked bootloader just allows you to flash custom .img on the device
This however wont fix the fingerprint scanner, that even if you did the workaround after unlocking ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/fix-fingerprint-not-working-after-bootloader-unlock.4214041/ ) , because you lost root after flashing stock and no way to edit the goodix files.
Anyway to properly return to stock and get fingerprint scanner back ?
EDIT: Nvm, the fix works properly with just skipping all the goodix part and doing all the CQA Menu Mode operations per the instructions.
