After flashing that i am getting system status as Modified instead of Official ... Can anybody help!!
Is it because of elemental x

Downgrade to lower version of MM (139-23, i think, not sure ) and you will receive latest update of MM (139-63)... It will make it official...

That's because you flashed EX kernel. This overwrites your stock kernel (boot.img) with EX kernel. Your bootloader only considers stock (Motorola) ROM files as 'official' including the kernel.
Obviously when you flashed a custom ROM it won't have Moto files as they have their own kernels.
To get it it back to official you need to revert to stock MM using this guide:
https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink?ur...share_tid=3460695&share_fid=3793&share_type=t
This should solve your issue
Note: It will wipe all your files and remove root, etc as it will make your phone just like how you got it when purchased.

Move your question here from development thread, i clearly said OTA, sideloading zip is not OTA...
Once you unlock the bootloader it will always show modified in the bootloader. You can't revert back to official once it's unlocked therefore modified. I already reverted back to stock firmware using fastboot and it's still considered modified.

I am not sure if what you said was right. Unlocking bootloader won't change the status to unofficial on the screen but it does essentially void your warranty. Even if you unlock, the device will still show it as official until and unless you decide to play with /system or /oem or root or custom kernel. Other than that, I believe it will still show it as official even though unlocked.
System status changes if you modify stock firmware.
It doesnt have to do anything with locked or unlocked bootloader.
I successfully changed my system status from modified to official even with unlocked bootloader.

1. Download older firmware :- MPJ139-23.1.
2. boot into twrp & format dalvik/cache/system/data/internal storage & then poweroff device.
3. GOTO :- http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/how-to-downgrade-nougat-to-marshmallow-t3487201
Use that code to flash firmware using fastboot.
4. Now after booting you will get ota update around 500mb. Update & you will get official status.
5. That's all i did. It worked perfectly for me. I've xt1643 model.

If you're rooted, first of all undo any system changes you made and unroot.
Then restore the boot partition backup of Stock Nougat 7.0 build NPJ25.93-14 via twrp. See it here:

Stock Recovery is not enough, you will need everything stock boot/system/Recovery, everything should be unmodified.
If you can't update, better is to flash complete stock ROM by fastboot.
Bro research before doing anything to your device! What will u do if the device never boots up next time u flash supersu??? Ever gave a thought to that?
You will have to revert everything to stock. Stock boot.img, stock recovery, remove root and reinstall any system app if you uninstalled any. Revert any boot logo or animation you changed!
After doing all this, you should take the update!

There is not any stock rom available right now for same January security patch level, so you cant downgrade or relock bootloader until there will not be a same patch level rom, also volte getting broken for all who flashed oreo roms. If you have backup of your stock rom before flashing oreo rom thn that backup can help. Efs restore can give you back your imei numbers and working network but volte, forget it.

Its normal if you have successfully flashed rom and gapps in twrp and thn from twrp you will press reboot system thn you will not reboot to system, first the phone will boot in bootloader and thn you have to press start button from bootloader thn rom will start to boot. And stock rom can only be flashed via fastboot or RSD Lite, however debloted and customised stock rom can be flashed via twrp. Hope this will help.

Yeah, its will failed because you are trying to downgrade and you cant downgrade gpt.bin, if you want to flash stock rom thn you will need same or higher patch level stock rom, otherwise its will failed or you will hardbricked your device, if twrp is working normally thn start a clean flash of any custom rom, reboot, first time you will boot in bootloader thn press start from bootloader thn your rom will boot normally. And last but not least, never ever forget to take backup of your old rom.
one question more can i restore someones twrp backup ? will that bring back VoLte working ? cuz just now i flashed Pixel Rom and it booted as u guided me to boot. But VoLte not working IMEI fine after flashing some commands ... both sim working
