Moto X play ''preflash validation failed'' - X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello my name is William!
I am new here so if this is the wrong place just tell me (oh and I'm dutch sorry if bad grammar occurs)
so I was rooting my lovely moto X play according to instructions (somewhere on this forum)
everything went well until... I had to install superSU after that it was stuck on ''warning your bootloader is unlocked''
I realized that it was soft-bricked and downloaded a stock rom (XT1562) from this forum in the hope to re-install or flash my phone back to it's stock rom but.. ofcourse my unluckiness had to strike again, when I typed in ''fastboot flash partition gpt.bin''
it said: ''(bootloader) preflash validation failed FAILED (remote failure)''
now I don't know what to do anymore, I am really getting desperate on getting my phone working again.
Can someone please tell me how to revert all this? (if it is possible) :crying:
I am not world's smartest man so just giving keywords won't really help me.
if it helps some info from my bootloader:
AP Fastboot Flash mode {secure)
BL: 80.ED (sha-6e42a5a. 2015-12-17 13:24:41
baseband: <not available>
Product/Variant: Lux XT1562 16gb P2C
Serial number: ZY222Z2N2T
Device is UNLOCKED: Status Code 3
Software status: modified
and I WAS running the most recent android 6 version (marshmallow)
in advance Thank you for trying to help me!

Brick, plz help.

Okay my freind and i tried to root this g4 and a internet user told me that this method also works for normal g4's. But now we have a brick, when we're starting the device it says:
ERROR: Failed to pass validation, backup to fastboot
Failed to vertify hab image boot
failed to validate boot image.
We're now downling a stock firmware, the name is: XT1622_ATHENE-TESCO_MPJ24.139-23.4_cid50_subsidy-TESCOEU_CFC.xml.zip
I don't know if it's the right, but bootloader says athene_13mp XT1622b and ATHENE_EMEA_DSDS_CUST
Is this the right one? How can we recover it when it's the wrong?
Can anybody help us?
Solve
Hi! I had the same problem , and recently I managed to solve it. for me I just installed a different rom stock (not official ) and the problem was solved!
Downloads: Rom for XT1640, XT1626 and XT1641 (Torrent) : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Byb_8WkC6g1XV053N2hXNkpnOWM/view?pageId=106752732436593453453
if this rom not work, try this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4/development/stock-moto-g4-marshmallow-6-0-1-stock-t3382999
and the commands, if you dont know: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B_WcFxq0JJ-ESlYyMWpNTWU0WVE
Both of they worked for me (Yeah i tested the both).
Dont forget that this erases your celphone data.

tell about your situation detailed. what method did you try to root the phone? did you unlock the bootloader first? which version of supersu did you flash? did you flash recovery first and is it working?..... in any case, unlocking the bootloader and flashing the twrp/cwm recovery followed by stock firmware flash should help. provide more details.

I cant' flash the Stock Rom

Good morning everyone, i have a horrible problem with my Moto G5 Plus XT1685.
I had the stock version NPNS25.137-33-11 of the firmware a couple of days ago, and i decided to unlock my bootloader and flash one custom rom.
Well, i did it but i realize i can't use Android Pay and i need it.
I tried to flash a firmware via ADB but i'm getting this error when i write "fastboot fash XXX XXX.img"
Code:
(bootloader) Security version downgrade
(bootloader) Image o failed validation
(bootloader) Invalid signed image
(bootloader) Preflash validation failed
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 1.689s
I would RELOCK my bootloader and FLASH the original firmware but i can't because of this problem. Who can help me?
Thanks in advance
Unfortunately, to lock your device, you'd likely need the NPNS25.137-33-11 stock firmware to flash; generally, only stock firmwares of the same build or newer than what you have will be able to re-lock your device. Currently, I can't see that particular firmware having been released/leaked.
If you need Android Pay, you may wish to look into rooting and using magisk to hide your unlocked bootloader status, which may give you SafetyNet and Android Pay. I'm not familiar with rooting and with magisk on G5 Plus devices though.

You can flash any potter fastboot you want, upgrade/downgrade, whatever; just don't flash the bootloader or gpt.
As long as you skip these, you won't have any issues.
FYI, flashing a stock fastboot file will NOT relock your bootloader.

Agreed, magisk is the way to go for root and solutions for rooted devices on the g5.
Thanks both for the replies, very helpful.
But how about relocking the bootloader? There is nothing I can do? I know you reply me yet about this, but I just wanna be sure..thanks again

Until the NPNS25.137-33-11 or newer stock firmware comes out, I think you cannot re-lock your bootloader (and as I mentioned, I see no sign of such stock firmware). Only stock ROM firmware of the same build or newer than the bootloader patch level on your device can re-lock your device.
Many thanks sir, very helpful.
I think we solved the problem.

Hello,
You cannot downgrade your Android version with the Verizon-model Droid Turbo 2. The Verizon-model has the bootlocker locked to a point where you are unable to rollback. Until someone cracks that code, you are stuck with whatever silly updates are pushed out. I feel your pain; I've had major issues since the most recent software update on my DT2.

Help for unbrick Moto G4 model XT1626

[BAD ENGLISH ALERT; I DON'T KNOW ENGLISH VERY WELL]
I need some help. A few days ago I installed the ROM Lineage OS 14.1 for my 4th gen Moto G XT1626 and it happened all right. But after everything was installed and right, I tried to use the Substratum to put a different theme. When you reset the device to use the new theme, it rebooted itself, so I went into Recovery mode and formatted the device. But I didn't want to go into the system anymore. I downloaded the stock ROM from the device and installed it. Everything worked out, and the device is back on. But when he went to install an update of the device, he gave that problem of no longer power on (Hard Brick). I searched the internet how to solve, and I used the process of Blank Flash, but when I install the original ROM by CMD/Fastboot It demonstrates these errors:
bootloader) Slot-count: not Found
(bootloader) Slot-suffixes: not Found
(bootloader) Slot-suffixes: not Found
...
FAILED (remote failure)
Finished. Total time:-0.000 's
That is, it fails to do the process, giving error in all commands.
I wanted to know how to solve this problem, since I tried several ROMs. The last one I tried was the NPJS25.93-14-8.
Please help me because is only smartphone that I have, and I don't can buy another one.
Which blankflash did you use? Hopefully it was the one from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/moto-g4-plus-hardbrick-solved-guide-t3657761
Perhaps try flashing the latest stock ROM we have but please confirm it's correct for your device. https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138
In future, please only flash stock ROMs of the same or newer build as on your device firmware, as downgrading (intentionally or accidentally) and then taking OTA updates can brick your device.

i've download xt1761_fastboot_woods_oem_user_7.1.1_NMA26.42-11-3_3_release-keys_oem_EMEA
this zip also includes a "recovery.img" is that the stock recovery? i tried to boot it with fastboot but i got this error

do you have any idea if that's recovery image or something else? also is possible to flash ROM from TWRP or fastboot cli, i tried some other program called "SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1952_Win" but when i open it and try to flash it doesn't connect to my phone :crying:

Just for update,
after hours trying i was able to install lineage-15.0-20171216_090858-UNOFFICIAL-nicklaus.zip
however phone stuck in a bootloop, so i gave up and started testing SP flash tool and managed to get stock android back and working as normal.
My point was to get android 9 or 8, if anyone knows or has any idea how to please let me know
i'm talking about Moto E4 (Woods), XT1761,
TWRP Version that's working for me twrp-3.2.2-0-woods.img
