[Guide][Make all roms work on XT1033]

Finally worked out!
Big thanks to @antarix for the method and @LeslieKawiti For pointing out ,so here's the full method.
So here's the full Guide
One sim will be fully functional
Well i did flash this over Retail GB but i dont think so thats required as it has no effect
1.Flash GPE from this method only!(specially the gpe image)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2726041
Boot into gpe once
2.Flash any recovery via Moto Tool or via command-line.
3.Do a full wipe(not userdata obviously!)
3.Install the rom.
Boot and Voila!

I guess that everyone figured that out long time ago
but after flashing retail gb and then custom roms would still give network errors(can recieve calls,hangup issues) and encryption errors on official gpe
These images are semi-official which actually modify the partition and give more space -thus really converting to gpe
None could get even one sim working properly but now we can!

excellent.It is same with my problem,but now solved.Thanks.

Is it possible to keep F2FS file system when converting a xt1033 for single sim stock roms like tweaky one? Ext4 is not as good as f2fs according to tests. Thank you.

Well that guide is to convert gpe, it does not significantly tell that all roms will support XT1033 after flashing ,if u just add that this will make all roms support XT1033, I'll be glad if u add that in ur guide
Now I know that your answer will be that it is obvious that after converting it should work on all roms but that didn't happen with retail GB or other gpe firmware, THAT'S WHY!

I read on few custom ROM threads that people complain on XT1033 related problems, that don't exist on single sim versions. Does this (or some other) hack make 1033 behave exactly as 1032, or those 1033 related issues are still present after the hack?
*I don't intend to ever use both sims, but local retailers only sell dual sim version.

It could be nice if you put the md5 of the ota just to check that it was downloaded correctly

I have problems with flashing recovery by mfastboot, using fastboot instead.

Battrey life is good in Stock , Just delete the unnecessary Moto Services from the stock Firmware.
I didnt tested the one by Innfinite4ever , also you need few days so that battrey would calibrate to give best results

1. LineageOS14.1 (MOTOG3-TE)
2. AEX 5.2 (Moto G Turbo)
Oreo scores more BM than N, i think stock rom would score more.
Also is there any way on increasing performance by flashing the Kernels. If so then which kernel should i Flash

Battery life is very good. I used to get only 3-3.5 hrs SOT in every custom ROM out there. Now I get around 4-4.5 hrs SOT. Not bad for a 2 year old phone.

Stock ROM is very fast and smooth as compared to any custom ROM out there as you can see from the SS in the post. I got 53k+ in Antutu.

Do a clean installation as described in OP of @lost101.
-BACKUP ALL YOUR DATA FROM INTERNAL STORAGE AND PLACE ROM IN SDCARD.
-Go to Wipe>Format Data>Yes. It will delete internal storage.
-Then go back to main TWRP screen. Go to Wipe>Factory Reset.
-Then install the ROM.
Everything will work fine.

Safety net passed for me tho. Also, that 53k score I think was a bug/mistake. Now I am getting only 45-48k.

Then you are in the wrong place mate. This conversation is about the ROM collection made by @lost101. I don't know anything about safetynet pass on Fastboot Firmware. Sorry.
