I am planning to root my ZE551ML. I have .194 firmware.
Will it work fine to root using method 3 with my current firmware? And I can update OTA if ever there's an update right?
Another thing, will I be forced to reset my phone or wipe data? I hope not coz most of my accounts like steam, etc. are already linked.
Thanks for the replies. I appreciate all input as I am still learning.
I hope to receive any response..
If you don't want to unlock your bootloader or reset/wipe your phone's data(like me) then use method 2 from this link:

Guys, I want to know whether the Asus official bootunlocker tool can be used in the MM .111 beta build.
Also, can I move to cm 13 directly from MM beta build after unlocking bootloader??....or should I downgrade to lollipop to do so....??

There's no official asus bootloader unlocking tool for any MM rom coz there's no official MM rom for zf2. So you should to downgrade to official LP
and then you should unlock boorloader and then you can install whatever you want.
Please anyone know where I can find the complete firmware of Rom Stock 7.0 Indian 25_93-14?

It doesn't exist outside Motorola yet. You have to flash the first Nougat official update via Fastboot and then only shall you be able to update via ADB or Recovery to the latest version.

Thank you men
Hello guys.
I have waited for an official OTA nougat update for too long and now want to flash Nougat myself. I searched online and found multiple options. Could you recommend which Nougat to flash? I'm split between AT&T official and Unlocked (U) versions.
Currently I'm on MM G930AUCU4APJ4.
Thanks.
There is no Nougat yet for the G930U or G935U.

Oh okay. Then which AT&T ROM would you recommend?
Hi there, im currently on the leaked oreo beta on my A2017G but since this month there should be the official oreo out i wish to rollback to stock. Do i just need to flash latest rom on it? Do i need to relock the bootloader and remove twrp to get new ota updates?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/guide-return-to-stock-custom-rom-t3634369 (like i also suggested at reddit )
Hi, how do I check my current bootloader version that is on my phone? And how do i know what version of bootloader will be in any stock rom i want to flash?
I don't want to overwrite with older bootloader. Need to know the current and the next one i will flash.
My device is from Europe and I have NPN25.137-92 installed.. I think this is not the latest stock nougat for my region.
Cheers.

No need to push your question everyday. If someone is able/wants to answer he will do.
First of all: NPN25.137-92 is not the European firmware, it's the one for India and Brazil.
The latest one in Europe seems to be NPN25.137-93-14, since yesterday there is another update with version number NPN25.137-93-18 out incl. August security patch but until now only US users (software channel RETUS) have confirmed it. For India/Brazil (your firmware) the latest Nougat firmware is NPN25.137-92-14.
Have you fastboot flashed some firmware on your device so that you are on NPN25.137-92 now? That could be the reason you don´t receive any further OTA updates.
Your bootlader version should be visible when you boot into stock recovery.
Yes, I must have flashed pretty wrong firmware, and now I want to get back on the track. Though I dont remember and I dont have knowledge what was flashed before that. Now I wonder what should be my next step in order to have latest European nougat, or oreo.

Flash latest european firmware NPN25.137-93-14 via fastboot. It can be found somwhere here in the Moto G 5+ threads or you can download it with Lenovo Smart Assistant: https://support.lenovo.com/de/de/downloads/ds101291
That should keep you back on track.
If you can't wait you can update to Oreo with the available OTA found here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5...fficial-moto-g5-g5-plus-t3848246/post77856408 ( Read OP of that thread to find out how). But as I posted above there's a newer nougat firmware out in the US so you may not receive future Oreo updates if you use this OTA.

Need an advice: I'm currently on POTTER_NPNS25.137-93-10, OTA says i can update it to POTTER_NPNS25.137-93-14.. Then I could get Oreo OTA from the thread above. In case of any further trouble: will it be safe to return to nougat POTTER_NPNS25.137-93-10 via fastboot? If yes, if then I update again to POTTER_NPNS25.137-93-14, it is safe to take nougat OTA again? And then oreo OTA again? Hope you get my point.

No, that's not safe. Downgrading is always a risky thing because of the bootloader and taking OTA after that could completely hardbrick your phone.
So if you're once on 93-14 you shouldn't flash an older firmware than this. Same applies to downgrading from Oreo to Nougat.

Well, in case of firmware, I cannot find direct 93-14 fastboot rom for download. I have found 93-10 only, that's why I'm concerned about not having the most up to date rom version on my hard drive to flash in case of<>.

Thank you. What in case I'm unlocked and in order to use google pay I need custom recovery and flashing magisk. How do i get back to stock oreo recovery then? I know it's a bit of offtopic, but maybe you can help me.
